Cultivating for a hundred lifetimes to ascension

Chapter 603: Chapter 377 Star God?_2

The walls were engraved with densely packed and intricate spirit patterns, twisting and overlapping like images of birds, beasts, insects, and fish — but not quite the same, strikingly resembling the original runes from Ancient Times.

In the eight directions of east, southeast, west, and northwest of the hall, eight passages were opened. The entrances were blocked by a layer of light, obscuring the view beyond.

The Ancestor Hall appeared to be a hall, but in reality, it was divided into multiple different sacrificial halls, each one dedicated to the worship and offering to an ancestor of the Qiu Ling Sect.

After Zhao Sheng and the others entered the Ancestor Hall, the light barrier at one of the passages suddenly dissipated, and an old man in a black robe emerged slowly, his skin like chicken skin and crane’s hair, his face covered in black spots, and his whole body exuding an air of death.

Upon seeing this person, Zhao Sheng and the others immediately bowed and saluted, “Daoist Hanzhang (Han Fa…), we pay our respects to the Ancestor.”

“Dispense with the formalities!” the black-robed old man weakly lifted his hand.

“I already know why you have come. Follow me!”

With that, the old man turned and walked into the passage.

Hearing this, Zhao Sheng felt a shock in his heart, and the others also showed a hint of surprise.

Unlike the confused people outside, this black-robed Ancestor seemed to know the true identities of everyone present and their purpose for entering this place.

Zhao Sheng even noticed that each time the old man spoke, the aura of death around him grew more intense.

“Who is this person?” he questioned internally.

At this moment, Tianluozi and the others were already rushing into the passage, fearing that being even a step slow would allow others to seize the opportunity before them.

Zhao Sheng hesitated for a moment, thereby falling behind the rest.
