Chapter 6987: Fate

Mo Xiangsheng took a look at him and became ecstatic. He came over and bowed: “Senior, you must be Till Ancestor, your reputation precedes you. My respect for you flows unceasingly like a river...”

“It’s nauseating to see an overlord playing a sycophant.” The farmer stopped him.

“I had the privilege of accompanying Amethyst Immortal to Farming Society where I heard nothing but legends of you, Senior. You chose to live reclusively after becoming an immortal instead of chasing fame, I have nothing but admiration for such a rarity in Heaven Realm.” He shamelessly said.

Farming Society was another of the ten minor alliances. It had mainly overlords and only a few immortals. When Till Ancestor joined, it was a big deal for them and boosted their prestige.

However, Till Ancestor remained reclusive and rarely appeared in public. He traveled a different path than other immortals, not choosing to focus on cultivation alone.

“Now you want me to take you two in there?” Till Ancestor displayed pleasure when smoking his pipe and blowing out smoke. He didn’t take a second glance at Li Qiye.

“Senior, given your benevolent and generous nature, you will surely take us inside.” He chuckled awkwardly.

“Why do you wish to go to Rusk Realm?” Till Ancestor asked.

“Senior, I have the same goal as the others.” He admitted.

“You also seek the celestial source? I advise you to drop this thought to stay alive.” Till Ancestor said.

“Senior, perhaps this fate is mine to grasp.” He didn’t give up.

“Fate? It won’t be your turn. Anyone here right now can crush you like an ant. A big shot from the fortress race is here, Immortal Bronze, and then the primordial immortals from Heaven Assault and Ancient World.” Till Ancestor smiled coldly.

“Senior, it’s not strictly a matter of strong or weak.” He said: “The brat from the nine worlds was the one to get it then, slaying ten overlords and three immortals in one go.”

“You only saw the result. He would have been part of the Guardian Alliance; ascension was only a matter of time. Moreover, the ones from that world are all exceptional.” Till Ancestor said.

“True, but I can’t give up, that’s essential for my dao. If you do not wish to help, I will ask another immortal.” He shook his head.

Till Ancestor blew out a ring of smoke and waited for a bit before responding: “I will take you out of consideration for Amethyst Immortal.”

“Thank you, Senior. Please take this brat too.” He didn’t forget about Li Qiye.

“It’s a death wish for a mortal.” Till Ancestor frowned.

“I just want to appreciate this vast world.” Li Qiye smiled.

“It’s suicidal.” Till Ancestor said.

“It would be a meaningful death.” Li Qiye said.

“This is perseverance and determination. He’s such a good child.” Mo Xiangsheng praised.

Till Ancestor puffed out more smoke before tapping it to remove the ash. He tucked it in his waistband and stood up: “Follow me.”

“Thank you, Senior.” He bowed in excitement.

Till Ancestor came over and gave one pouch each to Li Qiye and Mo Xiangsheng: “On your waist to avoid malice infection.”

Till Ancestor had an icy exterior but a warm heart. After all, he was the only one who agreed to help them.

“Stay close, it’s death if you fall behind.” He added.

“We understand, Senior.” Mo Xiangsheng said before pulling Li Qiye near him: “Watch out, Omen Path is no joke.”

“Buzz.” Till Ancestor released immortal flames to envelop the two. Their spatial vicinity became as tough as an iron wall.

Nonetheless, once they entered the path, the fog began corroding the flames.

“Activate.” He summoned a cauldron to improve the barrier.

The three began walking deeper into Omen Path.

“Senior, why didn’t you use the fortress race’s dimensional pathway?” Mo Xiangsheng asked curiously along the way.

“Why didn’t you?” Till Ancestor replied coldly.

“I couldn’t afford the price.” He smiled wryly.

“How expensive?” Li Qiye feigned ignorance.

“The payment is immortal chaos stones. If I were in a position to have them, I wouldn’t need to use the passage in the first place.” He said.

“You two are just tired of living.” Till Ancestor said.

“We have to be fearless to become immortals.” He responded.
