Chapter 543 -463: Dragon Tiger Ancestor Master

The Dragon Tiger Ancestor Master!

What a grand title.

Bai Yuan had already received a secret missive, so he knew the young man before him was likely the unsealed member of the Dragon Tiger Sect mentioned within—Ji Feng.

But Ji Feng showed no arrogance despite his distinguished status as a disciple of the founding ancestor.

Ji Feng smiled faintly. “I’ve told Stone many times not to call me Ancestor Master. Brother Bai, please don’t take it seriously.”

“…”

Bai Yuan was taken aback.

He hadn’t expected the disciple of the Dragon Tiger Sect’s first-generation Grand Celestial Master to be so easygoing.

Otherwise, given this young man’s seniority, even Sect Leader Li and Elder Pei would have to address him as Ancestor Master. He was the highest-ranking member of the Dragon Tiger Sect.

Ji Feng said, “I’m a bit older than you. Just call me Brother Ji, or Brother Feng.”

“Brother Chicken?”

Bai Yuan decided to go with the latter. “Brother Feng.”

“Aye, Brother Yuan.”

Hearing Bai Yuan address him as a brother, Ji Feng broke into a satisfied smile. 𝑓𝑟ℯℴ𝓂

Ji Feng continued, “Brother Yuan, that figure from the Northern Plains sect, the one known as the Demon Seed, should also be one of the unsealed.”

In his era,

not only had the Demon Sect not existed, but its Founding Ancestor hadn’t even been born.

Therefore, Ji Feng didn’t actually know much about the Demon Sect.

He had only heard about it from Shi Yan, which led to some speculation and his decision to head north.

Bai Yuan nodded. “Brother Feng, I’ve already confirmed it. That person is someone who was sealed five thousand years ago.”

“Five thousand years.”

“Still quite young.”

“…”

This time, both Bai Yuan and Shi Yan fell silent in unison.

They had no idea how to respond to Ji Feng’s comment.

The seniority of the unsealed masters was terrifyingly high, casually spanning thousands of years.

If the Grand Ancestor Emperor hadn’t left behind his seals, the Demon Sect’s Demon Seed would indeed have been the youngest of them all.

Ji Feng said, “A Martial Saint. Later generations are truly full of heroes.”

After he reawakened, the first thing he did was cram all the history that had occurred since he was sealed.

The world had changed so much.

It filled him with emotion.

Beauties had turned to dust, and oceans had become mulberry fields.

Several powerful factions that had once rivaled the Dragon Tiger Sect had vanished into the dust of history, while some once-inconspicuous minor sects had now become great sects, standing on par with the Dragon Tiger Sect.

And even more shocking, people had reached a realm that even his master could never attain in his lifetime.

A Martial Saint.

Of course, it wasn’t that the Dragon Tiger Sect’s first-generation Grand Celestial Master was truly inferior to the Demon Sect’s Founding Ancestor. It was just that the worldly fortune of that era was thin, providing no fertile ground to nurture a Martial Saint.

Thus, even though his master was a heaven-sent genius, he could only stagnate, unable to advance.

It became the regret of his lifetime.

‘My disciple, your master has no hope of advancing further in this life. But you still have a sliver of a chance. I will seal you within the Divine Stone. Wait for the winds and clouds of a future age to shift, and perhaps you will be able to take that step.’

The words of the first-generation Celestial Master still echoed in Ji Feng’s ears.

Ji Feng then gave a bitter smile.

In truth, he hadn’t been very willing to be sealed.

‘If I couldn’t become a Martial Saint in that era, would feigning death for ten thousand years really make a difference?’

At least, Ji Feng didn’t think so.

He had a naturally carefree disposition. Becoming a Martial Saint was tempting, but if it was out of reach, he wouldn’t force it.

“I’ll just treat it as a new experience.”

Since reawakening, he had taken Shi Yan down from Dragon Tiger Mountain and traveled the world.

That was why it had taken them so long to reach the Northern Plains.

“This later era is actually quite interesting,” Ji Feng said, looking at the young man before him with great interest.

“A Mingxin Martial Artist who can even make me feel wary is truly a rare sight.”

The Dragon Tiger Sect’s first-generation Celestial Master took seven disciples in total, and he was the youngest.

In that era, the concept of a “closed-door disciple” didn’t exist yet.

In other words, he had six senior brothers ranked above him, yet the first-generation Celestial Master ultimately chose him.

Why?

Because he was strong enough to fight, of course.

In his own time, he had already swept through the world time and time again.

“Ah Yuan, have you fought against that Demon Seed?” Ji Feng asked, a look of interest on his face.

Bai Yuan shook his head.

Although he had previously used the Divine Palace Profound Soldiers to kill the Blood Glow Giant, that was completely different from a real duel.

“I’d quite like to give it a try,” Ji Feng said, looking eager for a fight.

Seeing Ji Feng’s expression, Shi Yan’s scalp went numb. He quickly interjected, “Ancestor Master, the Demon Sect has a Divinity Grandmaster watching over it! We can’t win.”

The light in Ji Feng’s eyes vanished.

“Little Stone, you’re just too cautious.”

“…”

Shi Yan was speechless.

This was the first time anyone had ever used those words to describe him.

But when he recalled the things Ji Feng had done on their journey, he felt the description wasn’t wrong after all.

Ji Feng had coveted the sect-guarding treasures of who knows how many sects.

Fortunately, Ji Feng only looked. If he had stolen them all, it would have been a huge mess.

Shi Yan was genuinely afraid this Ancestor Master would cause trouble.

Bai Yuan asked curiously, “Brother Feng, what do you plan to do next?”

Ji Feng smiled faintly.

“Becoming a Martial Saint is up to fate, but since my master gave me this task, I have to at least defeat all those other old geezers like me. Otherwise, I’d be letting down all of his painstaking efforts.”

“…”

Bai Yuan and Shi Yan exchanged a glance.

Who would have thought this Ancestor Master of the Dragon Tiger Sect was a battle maniac?

…

「A month passed.」

One after another, the sealed masters were unsealed. Even some long-declined sects had their own unsealed masters emerge.

Their numbers were far greater than anyone had imagined.

Many could even be traced back to the Ancient Era.

「Celestial Universe Dynasty, Capital City.」

“Master Yan, this is already the forty-seventh sealed master to awaken,” Emperor Li Dai said, gazing at the secret missive in his hand.

He sighed softly.

This was truly an era of great contention. Xuan Yang was chaotic enough as it is, and now dozens of masters sealed for ten thousand years had appeared.

Even he was getting a headache.

If these unsealed masters were only single-mindedly pursuing the Dao, it would be fine. But if, like that Demon Seed, they harbored intentions to throw the world into chaos, then things would be troublesome.
