Ringing the Bell for a Hundred Years, I Became the Sect’s Ancestor – Chapter 175

Chapter 175

Chapter 175: Ancestor’s Decree

Divine Sword Hall.

A meeting is being held, with many elders with real authority and peak masters gathered, and even several Supreme Elders are present.

Sect Master Zhuo Yang opens his mouth and says, “Recently, a very powerful family has moved into Xuan Province. It is said that they have Celestial Beings and are forcing the local martial arts families and sects to sell a large amount of their properties at extremely low prices.”

“Is there no information about the origin of this family?”

Celestial Being Hou asks curiously.

“No, this family seems to have appeared out of nowhere. When our Divine Sword Sect’s Grandmaster tried to negotiate with this family, they were directly turned away.”

Sect Master Zhuo Yang shakes his head and says.

“What kind of family is this, so arrogant?”

“Even if it’s a Celestial Being family that has moved in from elsewhere, they should at least come to pay their respects and inform us when they arrive in the territory of our Divine Sword Sect. This is clearly disrespecting our Divine Sword Sect.”

“Those martial arts families are more or less related to our Divine Sword Sect. If we don’t stand up for them, it will damage the reputation of our Divine Sword Sect.”

The elders and peak masters present start discussing among themselves.

Now, the Divine Sword Sect has more than twenty Celestial Beings, including Middle-Level Celestial Beings. Such power is among the best in the Taiwu Circuit.

Naturally, they cannot be bullied by just any Celestial Being family.

“What do you all think?”

Celestial Being Hou looks at the other Celestial Beings.

“The actions of this family are indeed a bit unusual. Why don’t we first try to understand the situation from the Taiwu Circuit Lord’s Residence and then make a decision?”

Supreme Elder Feng Shaoyu says.

“Elder Feng, then you should personally make a trip.”

Celestial Being Hou nods and says.

“Okay.”

Supreme Elder Feng Shaoyu nods.

He was once the Sect Master, so he is more suitable for dealing with external affairs than ordinary Supreme Elders.

One day later.

Supreme Elder Feng Shaoyu arrives at the Taiwu Circuit Lord’s Residence in Xing Province and finds Yu Yan, the Family Head of the Yu Family, to inquire about the situation.

“Elder Feng, to tell you the truth, there are already more than twenty Celestial Being families that have recently moved into our Taiwu Circuit.”

Yu Yan says in a deep voice.

“Huh? So many? Where did these families come from?”

Feng Shaoyu is extremely shocked.

“This matter is confidential, so I cannot say for now. Moreover, there should be another one in your Divine Sword Sect’s territory, but it just hasn’t caused any trouble yet.”

Yu Yan shakes his head and says.

Regarding external matters, he has not received permission from the Dao Sect, so he definitely cannot reveal them.

Anyway, with a large number of Dao Sect families moving into the Mortal Realm, things will become more and more chaotic later on.

Not to mention local martial arts forces like the Divine Sword Sect, even the Yu Family, which comes from the Dao Sect, can only stand aside after their Celestial Image Level Celestial Being fell.

“Family Head Yu, then how should my Divine Sword Sect respond?”

Feng Shaoyu asks quickly.

He senses that this matter is unusual.

In fact, the origin of the Yu Family is already very mysterious.

Now, suddenly, so many mysterious Celestial Being family forces have emerged, which makes Feng Shaoyu feel an unprecedented sense of urgency.

“Elder Feng, I can only briefly remind you to try not to have conflicts with these Celestial Being families. If you can endure, then endure. Also, it’s best to shrink your territory and power. The changes in the future are beyond what you and I can imagine.”

Family Head Yu Yan sighs and says.

The Yu Family does not have a Celestial Image Level Celestial Being, so they can only go with the flow and cannot see the direction of the future.

“Thank you for the reminder, Family Head Yu.”

Feng Shaoyu can feel the seriousness of the situation. Fortunately, the Divine Sword Sect did not have a conflict with that Celestial Being family, otherwise, it would have been really troublesome.

So he leaves the Taiwu Circuit Lord’s Residence and hurries back to the Divine Sword Sect to convene a meeting with many Celestial Beings to discuss important matters.

Li Qian is also notified to attend the meeting.

When he hears that two mysterious Celestial Being families have appeared one after another in the Divine Sword Sect’s territory, and that more than twenty new Celestial Being level forces have appeared in the Taiwu Circuit, he cannot help but feel a stirring in his heart, wondering if more experts from the Martial Alliance are entering.

“It seems to be related to the Demonic Calamity. The Martial Alliance is very likely going to close the Mortal Realm’s barrier.”

Li Qian thinks to himself.

Otherwise, there is no way to explain why so many Celestial Being family forces are appearing in the Taiwu Circuit.

After all, to clear the Demonic Calamity, a large number of Martial Saints must enter the Mortal Realm.

If the Mortal Realm’s barrier is not closed, how can the Martial Alliance’s Martial Saints enter?

“According to what Family Head Yu said, it’s best for our Divine Sword Sect to shrink our territory and try to avoid direct conflicts with those two family forces.”

Feng Shaoyu says in a deep voice.

“The Yu Family’s origin is mysterious. They must know the origins of these Celestial Being families. It seems that there are secrets that we don’t know.”

“The Yu Family had a Celestial Image Level Celestial Being back then, and they are so wary. These Celestial Being families are definitely not simple. Perhaps there may be Celestial Image Level Celestial Beings behind them. It’s better for us not to have conflicts with them.”

“Let’s wait and see what happens.”

“Alas, that’s all we can do.”

“What exactly is happening to this world? It’s as if we woke up one day and didn’t recognize it anymore.”

“Since such Celestial Being families have appeared in the territories of other forces, we can inquire about the intelligence of those territories and see what the situation is.”

The Celestial Beings also speak one after another.

After some discussion, the Celestial Beings finally reach a consensus, which is to remain restrained towards these two Celestial Being family forces and at the same time restrain the Divine Sword Sect’s members from having conflicts with them.

Finally, Sect Master Zhuo Yang convenes many elders, elders with real authority, and peak masters to convey the decision of the Supreme Elders.

These elders are puzzled as to why the Supreme Elders would make such a decision. Naturally, there are complaints in private, as it involves their own vital interests. However, this is the will of the Supreme Elders, so they have no choice but to comply.

As things develop, many major events related to mysterious Celestial Being family forces occur one after another within the territory of Chang Country.

First, the Diancang Sect, a major martial arts sect in Cang Province of Xuanwu Circuit, has a conflict with a mysterious Celestial Being family, which leads to a great battle, resulting in the fall of two Celestial Beings of the Diancang Sect and the slaughter of a large number of sect members and disciples.

◈◈◈

In just half a month, the Diancang Sect is almost completely destroyed and no longer exists.

Following that, the Celestial Being of the Fengying Sect, a major martial arts sect in Yan Province, falls, and a Celestial Being family that moved into their territory seizes a large amount of their land.

Then, the Xuanyi Sect in Bazhou of the Taiwu Circuit also encounters a similar situation. Their Celestial Being is severely injured, and the sect suffers heavy losses, forcing them to submit and hand over most of their land.

As for the number of major martial arts sects that have had small-scale conflicts and had to cut their losses in time, there are even more.

The high-level members of the Divine Sword Sect fall silent after summarizing the intelligence information from all sides.

Because these mysterious Celestial Being families are all extremely powerful, with a very large number of Celestial Beings. It is normal for them to have at least a dozen, and as many as twenty or thirty.

Compared to them, the major martial arts sects in various places are far inferior.

In the following year or so, the structure of each circuit in Chang Country is almost completely broken.

The Divine Sword Sect’s territory has also shrunk significantly. In addition to the Celestial Being family that occupies Xuan Province, another Celestial Being family has also emerged in Taiping County. However, they are not as domineering and are much more low-key, but they have also occupied Taiping County as their sphere of influence.

Faced with this situation, the Divine Sword Sect is helpless and can only turn a blind eye.

Time Bell Pavilion.

Li Qian is still ringing the bell every day to cultivate, ignoring worldly affairs.

As long as the Divine Sword Sect does not encounter any major life-or-death crisis, he will not interfere casually.

There is no need for that.

Because he knows that this is only the beginning.

When the barrier of the Mortal Realm collapses and the demons and devils invade on a large scale, that will be the real chaos.

Now, the entry of these Dao Sect family forces seems to be compressing the living space of local martial arts forces such as the Divine Sword Sect, but when the demons and devils invade, these forces will be able to build powerful defensive barriers.

With great power comes great responsibility.

In the future, the Mortal Realm will reach a point where one can only survive through true strength.

“Alas, I’m still too weak.”

Li Qian inexplicably feels a sense of urgency in his heart.

Once the barrier of the Mortal Realm collapses, ordinary Martial Saints and Demon Saints will be nothing.

Above them, there are also Great Sages and even Supreme Sages.

He, a mere Initial Level Martial Saint, cannot even protect himself.

“No, I must remind the high-level members of the Divine Sword Sect to avoid any accidents. I absolutely cannot let them affect my great plan of ringing the bell for cultivation.”

Li Qian frowns slightly and immediately leaves the Time Bell Pavilion to go to Elder Qingsong’s cultivation place.

“Elder Li, why are you here?”

Elder Qingsong is very surprised.

This is the first time he has seen Li Qian take the initiative to visit him, which gives him a strange sense of honor.

“Elder Qingsong, the Ancestor asked me to inform you of something.”

Li Qian says.

“The Ancestor’s decree?”

Elder Qingsong’s body trembles, and he quickly says, “I will now gather all the Supreme Elders.”

“Then I’ll trouble you, Elder Qingsong.”

Li Qian nods and says.

Half an hour later, all fifteen Celestial Beings, except those who are not in the Divine Sword Sect, arrive at Elder Qingsong’s meditation place.

These Celestial Beings all look excited.

Although they have never seen the Ancestor, the legends about the Ancestor have long been circulating among them.

“Elder Li, please convey the Ancestor’s decree.”

Elder Qingsong says respectfully.

The current Li Qian is not only a Supreme Elder but also the spokesperson for that Ancestor.

“The Ancestor told me to tell you that the future will be difficult. If the Divine Sword Sect wants to survive, it must greatly shrink its territory and power, try not to have conflicts with the surrounding forces, and preserve its strength to the greatest extent.”

Li Qian says solemnly.

After hearing this, the faces of the Celestial Beings become serious.

Although Elder Feng also heard the same warning from Family Head Yu, the Ancestor’s warning is more weighty in comparison.

“Elder Li, did the Ancestor say anything about the origins of those Celestial Being families?”

Elder Qingsong asks quickly.

The other Celestial Beings are also very curious.

“Yes, these Celestial Being families are like the Yu Family, from outside the Mortal Realm. Most of them have Celestial Image Level Celestial Beings behind them, and above them, there is also a super force with Martial Saint level experts.”

Li Qian says in a deep voice.

Hiss, hiss, hiss!

A series of gasping sounds almost ring out at the same time, and all the Celestial Beings show shock on their faces.

Because everything Li Qian said completely broke their existing worldview.

By the time they react, Li Qian has already left.

He has said what he should say.

What to do next depends on the decision of these Supreme Elders.

He believes that these Supreme Elders are not stupid. Faced with an irresistible force, a certain degree of tolerance is necessary.

Li Qian does not want the Divine Sword Sect to cause him trouble.

Especially with the closure of the Mortal Realm’s barrier imminent, he does not want to reveal his identity and strength at this time.

What he needs most now is to quietly ring the bell for cultivation and wait for the collapse of the Mortal Realm’s barrier. Then, in the drastic changes of the Mortal Realm and the fierce conflicts between humans, demons, and devils, he will obtain the powerful strength to protect himself.

撞钟百年,我成了宗门老祖
Score 8
Status: Ongoing Author: Released: 2024 Native Language: Chinese
Reborn into a world where martial arts are supreme, Li Qian became an Odd-Job Disciple of the Divine Sword Sect and was assigned to be a Bell Ringer. While ringing the bell, the Sacrificial Instrument System unexpectedly awakened, and the Time Bell he rang became his Natal Sacrificial Instrument, connected to his very life. As long as he rang the bell, he could enhance the Time Bell Sacrificial Instrument. Moreover, the Sacrificial Instrument has one major characteristic. As long as the Time Bell is not destroyed, the Host will not die. From then on, a path of immortal martial arts unfolded before Li Qian. Many years later, the Divine Sword Sect faced a crisis of annihilation, and countless Divine Sword Sect disciples knelt before the Time Bell Pavilion. "We implore the Ancestor to act." *** In a world dominated by martial prowess, the Divine Sword Sect stands as a beacon of power and prestige. Within its vast hierarchy, Odd-Job Disciples occupy the lowest rung, their lives dedicated to menial tasks and their dreams of martial cultivation often fading into obscurity. Li Qian, a transmigrator from a world without martial arts, finds himself among these lowly disciples, his initial aspirations dampened by his assigned role as a mere bell ringer. Yet, fate has a different plan for Li Qian. The seemingly ordinary Time Bell, entrusted to his care, awakens a dormant power within him—the Sacrificial Instrument System. Bound to the Time Bell, Li Qian discovers a path to cultivation unlike any other, one that grants him unique abilities and the potential for eternal life. As he diligently performs his duties, the Time Bell undergoes a gradual transformation, its power growing alongside Li Qian's own martial arts cultivation. However, the tranquility of Li Qian's life is shattered when he becomes entangled in a web of secrets and conspiracies. The mysterious death of his predecessor, Old Song, and the existence of a treasure map left behind by an Innate Martial Artist thrust Li Qian into a dangerous game of power and intrigue. Hunted by those who covet the treasure and forced to confront the darker side of the Divine Sword Sect, Li Qian must rely on his wits, his growing strength, and the enigmatic abilities of the Time Bell to survive. Guided by his master, Zhou Buping, a recluse with a hidden agenda, Li Qian navigates the treacherous waters of sect politics, forming alliances with fellow disciples like the hardworking Chen Yong and encountering enigmatic figures like the seductive Song Yingying. As he delves deeper into the mysteries surrounding him, Li Qian uncovers a world far more complex and dangerous than he ever imagined, a world where the pursuit of martial perfection is intertwined with ambition, betrayal, and the ultimate quest for immortality. This is a story of cultivation, adventure, and self-discovery, where a seemingly ordinary individual, armed with an extraordinary artifact and an unyielding spirit, rises above his humble beginnings to challenge the established order and forge his own destiny in a world where only the strong survive.
