Ancient Ancestral Emperor

1Qin Shaojie walked forward with his pace, continuously moving forward in accordance to his own rhythm.     1

    

He was very careful as he continuously circulated the mystical Qi within his body. The moment there were any problems, he would be able to ensure that he would be able to react in time.    

    

Someone's aura? But weak!    

    

However, after approximately fifteen minutes, Qin Shaojie's footsteps had stopped without any warning. It was because not far in front of him, he clearly felt a faint aura. This aura was definitely not the aura of a bird or a foreign race, but was unique to humans. However, due to the spread of this aura, it gave people an extremely weak feeling. In fact, even their life force had weakened.    

    

In this space filled with a deathly stillness, only then did it emit traces of a human's aura, causing Qin Shaojie to not dare to have any neglect.    

    

As they slowly approached the location of the aura, Qin Shaojie was very sure that this was not the aura of the two ancestors of Heaven Gate and Earth Gate, because their auras were not at such a state. If the two ancestors of Heaven Gate and Earth Gate were really that weak, Chu Feng and Quan Yang wouldn't have had the guts to let him in. After all, these two ancestors were the true trump cards of the Heaven Gate and the Earth Gate.    

    

There was only one possibility for them to allow themselves to enter directly, and that was that the strength of the two ancestors in this small world must be extremely strong. At the very least, it wouldn't be difficult to kill him. Only with such self-confidence would they be able to do so without fear or worry. As for his own strength … Presumably, Chu Feng and Quan Yang also knew a little about it. They had felt some of their own power just now, but in this kind of situation, although they found it hard to believe, it was undeniable that they were not worried at all.    

    

Moreover, what surprised Qin Shaojie the most was that these auras were not only weak but also did not contain two different auras.    

    

This place could be said to be the most strictly hidden place in the Gate of Heaven, and even their Treasure Vault was not as important as this place. To enter this place, unless one obtained the approval of Chu Feng and Quan Yang, it would be almost impossible for anyone to know about this place.    

    

There must be something strange going on.    

    

Qin Shaojie took a deep breath, and under the urge of curiosity, he still slowly walked in the direction where the auras came from. He knew that if he was close enough, he would be able to discover the secrets within!    

    

Who are you?    

    

Finally, Qin Shaojie appeared behind a hill. This hill was not very eye-catching. There were no plants on its bare surface. There was only sand. It was almost exactly the same as the other hills around him. However, from behind this kind of hill, came some moans due to pain, and the aura that Qin Shaojie felt earlier was also coming from behind this hill.    

    

But when Qin Shaojie was being cautious, and did not dare to move recklessly, what appeared in front of him, was actually seven men!    

    

These seven men looked young, perhaps around the same age as Qin Shaojie, or maybe slightly older. However, none of these were important. The most important thing was that the seven of them were currently extremely haggard and did not dare to do so. Their bodies even seemed somewhat emaciated. Their eye sockets were already deeply sunken in. There was no hint of blood on their skin. At this moment, they were weakly sitting on the ground.    

    

Their eyes were glazed, as if they were already numb to the fact that their bodies were in such a state. Although the seven pieces of clothing were tattered, they could not hide the prosperity that they once possessed. It was obvious that these people had a high status.    

    

Qin Shaojie's eyes were filled with disbelief. The moment he appeared in front of these few people, they seemed to not have noticed in the slightest. One could imagine how weak they were right now.    

    

The instant Qin Shaojie opened his mouth to inquire, the eyelids of the seven people who were originally about to close abruptly opened. After which, their pupils flashed with fear and dread, as if they had seen something extremely terrifying. A few of them tried to escape, but the moment the fight broke out, they lost their balance and fell to the ground.    

    

However, their instinct for survival made them keep backing away. It was as if they wanted to stay away from Qin Shaojie.    

    

Such a scene also caused Qin Shaojie's heart to undulate nonstop. Just what experiences did these people have, that was why they had such so called a reaction? Qin Shaojie wasn't sure exactly what had happened to them, but one thing was certain, that these few people must have been severely affected, and it was even enough to make their minds feel as if they were hallucinating.    

    

Seeing the change in their expressions and their movements, Qin Shaojie also hurriedly raised his palm, as if he was hinting that he was not threatening them, and was even taking the initiative to move backwards.    

    

He had seen a lot of people in his life, so he naturally knew that their movements just now originated from the depths of his soul. They must have suffered some extremely serious injury or influence, which was why they were in such a state. What he needed to do now was to do everything he could so that they wouldn't feel any threat from him.    

    

It was not because Qin Shaojie was worried that they would harm him. On the contrary, based on their current situation, he would only need to wave his palm a little to completely exterminate them, because they had already lost their ability to fight and their will to fight.    

    

This is water, you can replenish your strength first.    

    

Qin Shaojie's actions had indeed caused the expressions of shock and fear on the faces of the seven people to pause slightly, and what replaced it was doubt.    

    

But even so, they did not dare make any other movements, and instead vigilantly stared at Qin Shaojie. This phenomenon gave off an extremely strange feeling, as though both parties had frozen in place, but only Qin Shaojie knew, that although these people were shocked, their eyes still maintained a clear look deep inside. Clearly, their spiritual sense was still clear, and their sea of consciousness should be complete as well.    

    

Just because he was frightened. That's why it was like this.    

    

However, the Gate of Heaven could not imprison these people here for no reason, so there must be something hidden within. What he needed to know was why these people were here. Or perhaps he had guessed wrongly, all of this was a trap for him?    

    

The countless questions made the change in Qin Shaojie's heart quite obvious, but he knew that if he wanted to solve these riddles, he had to use these people as a way out.    

    

After all, after entering this desolate little world, he had not been able to sense any clues regarding the Heavenly Gate and Earth Gate ancestors. These were the only living beings that he had ever encountered!    

    

They had clearly stayed here longer than he had, and were even more aware of everything that was happening in this small world.    

    

If the two ancestors of the Heaven Gate and the Earth Gate were in this small world, then these people must have truly met before.    

    

When Qin Shaojie saw the lips of these people that had been split due to the dryness of the transition, he knew that these people must be in a dehydrated state for a long time. If it was a normal warrior, he naturally wouldn't need all this so-called replenishment, but these people currently only had a sliver of profound energy in their body, as if it was for the sake of their lives. Apart from this, there was no other form of mystical Qi that could ensure the normal functioning of their bodies!    

    

The moment Qin Shaojie took out the water bottle, the eyes of these seven people all flickered with an extremely strong light!    

    

It was a thirst for life. When the water appeared, they thought it was just an illusion. However, the moment Qin Shaojie placed the water on the ground and retreated by several meters, they finally started to truly believe that this person did not appear to threaten their existence.    

    

Moreover, even if they were to take ten thousand steps back to threaten their lives, they had no other choice because they knew very well that their bodies thirsted for water!    

    

In this desolate small world, not to mention the water source, there was not even a single flower or plant like this. One could imagine just how harsh the environment was! To the seven of them, the water source was no less important than life and death!    

    

Seeing that the few of them did not care about their image and started to share the water sources, Qin Shaojie stood at the side far away, quietly watching from the sidelines, without showing any signs of disturbing them in his plans!    

    

Who are you? Why did it appear here?    

    

How could they not see that Qin Shaojie had no ill intentions towards them? Looking at Qin Shaojie's appearance, although his clothes were not luxurious, he did not look like an ordinary disciple.    

    

The seven of them looked at each other, and one of them, a slightly brawny man with a cautious expression on his face, asked in a low voice. After all, a person had appeared at this place. They had to be careful.    

    

I was sent in by Sect Leader Chu Feng and Sect Head Quan Yang. But I don't know what it is. Qin Shaojie's words were not a lie, because that was the truth! His appearance was directly related to Chu Feng and Quan Yang. Of course, Qin Shaojie now displayed his respect for Chu Feng and Quan Yang, and even used his title to address them. After all, Chu Feng and Quan Yang held quite a high position in the eyes of the world.    

    

When the seven of them looked at each other after hearing Qin Shaojie's words, they also laughed miserably for some unfathomable reason. Under this kind of smile, he was filled with ridicule, as if he had seen Qin Shaojie's future, causing him to feel uncomfortable.    

    

It looks like you aren't a disciple of the Heaven Gate or the Earth Gate. Otherwise, it's impossible for you to not recognize us. However, to be able to be brought here by two sect leaders, it means that you must at least have some innate abilities, and even some extremely strong strength and vitality.    

    

The leader of the group slowly said with regret in his eyes. With these words, the other six people beside him shook their heads.    

    

They had already been here for a period of time, so they were naturally aware of the great danger that was hidden here.    

    

It could be said that in their eyes, as long as they entered this small world, they would need to endure endless pain and fear. No matter how strong he was, it was impossible to change his fate here!    

    

And this person's words, caused Qin Shaojie's pupils to gradually shrink to the size of a pinhole.    

    

Because he could already hear a lot of signals from this seemingly simple sentence!    

    

These seven people were important and respected existences within the Gate of Heaven and the Gate of Earth. Logically, all the experts in the Gate of Heaven and the Gate of Earth should recognize these people. Additionally, one would require extremely strong strength and life force in order to enter this space. Finally, after entering this space, he was filled with fear and shock!    

    

And these seven people were a typical example!    

    

If I'm not wrong, you guys should be the young masters of the Heaven Gate and Earth Gate!    

    

Qin Shaojie slightly raised his head, a look of caution in his eyes as he spoke in a low voice!    

    

As he said this, the expressions of the seven people instantly changed!
