Primordial Era: With unparalleled comprehension, I am the Ancestor of Stars.

Chapter 172 Forbidden Land

"Our life space used to have three experts at the peak of the Great Dao realm, and five experts at the half-step Great Dao realm, but our combat power was very weak, and our physical bodies were even more frail!"

"The Ancestral Hall originally only had two experts at the peak of the Great Dao realm, but their Great Dao of Power could overcome all other techniques with sheer force. No matter what kind of Great Dao power it was, it was as useless as a clay chicken or a clay dog ​​before the Great Dao of Power! And our ancestor originally followed the Hall Master of the Ancestral Hall, the Emperor!"

"Finally, the Emperor imparted some alchemical techniques to the Ancestor, which led to the existence of the Life Space and later, the largest alchemy world in the universe—the Life Space!"

"Many people coveted the Life Space back then, but after the Emperor of the Ancestral Hall issued his decree, some restless individuals finally calmed down!"

"And so, under the protection of the Ancestral Emperor, we slowly developed, eventually becoming one of the top forces in the Eastern Universe, and our world broke through to the peak of the high-level! But suddenly one day, six black-robed figures appeared in the Life Space. They all possessed the strength of the peak of the Great Dao realm, and their combat power was extremely strong. Our ancestor's strength was only enhanced by elixirs, and he couldn't withstand their attacks at all. In the end, they all died in battle. They killed all the experts above the mid-stage of the Primordial Chaos realm in the Life Space, leaving only some early-stage Primordial Chaos realm experts and those with even lower strength!"

"The world lords who finally received our blessings rushed over upon hearing the news, but it was too late; they had long since vanished. They were eventually asked by our life-space to investigate, but they all mysteriously disappeared!"

"In the end, we gave up searching for the culprit. Later, we learned that at the same time our life space was in trouble, the ancestral temple was also in trouble, and in the end, the entire world of the ancestral temple disappeared!"

"We lost the protection of our ancestral temple and several ancestors. Although our world level is still high-level, our strength is not even comparable to that of a mid-level world!" Daoist Gu Deng told Taihao everything that happened back then, word by word. He had now placed all his hopes on Taihao. If Taihao couldn't find those people, then there might be no one else in the universe who could find them!

"Since that group of people already killed your ancestor, why didn't they eliminate them completely and destroy the life space directly? Wouldn't that have been more perfect? ​​Why did they leave you alive?" Taihao asked, somewhat puzzled.

"It seems they were searching for something. After killing the ancestor, they searched for something throughout the entire life space before finally leaving with resentment!" Daoist Lone Lamp said to Taihao.

After listening to the words of the Lonely Lamp Daoist, Taihao had some guesses in his mind, but these were just Taihao's guesses!

Then Taihao asked, "Where was the root of the Nine-Bend Heavenly Tree located back then? Don't tell me you obtained it after some point!"

"The roots of the Nine-Bend Heavenly Tree are an important part of my life space. Before those people came, they were guarded by several patriarchs, and only a few patriarchs knew where they were!"

"According to what I later learned, the roots of the Nine-Bend Heavenly Tree were brought out by several ancestors from a dangerous place. After bringing them out, the ancestors used all their life's knowledge to develop an array and then placed the roots of the Nine-Bend Heavenly Tree inside it."

"Ten thousand years ago, a breathtaking life energy suddenly appeared in the living space, which revitalized the previously desolate space. We also benefited greatly; otherwise, I would have already passed away!"

"Originally, my lifespan was already running out, and I could only survive by entering a state of hibernation. However, after this energy appeared, my lifespan actually began to slowly increase, and my strength also increased rapidly. My strength, which had dropped due to my approaching lifespan, has been restored once again!"

"When I found the source, which is here, I saw this Tree of Life. After observing it, I realized that this was because the great formation had not been maintained for a long time, and the life energy was too condensed, which eventually damaged a corner of the formation, causing the energy to leak!" Daoist Gu Deng slowly told Tai Hao everything without hiding anything!

After hearing this, Taihao recalled that when he broke the formation, he found that the formation was very powerful, but it was broken. At first, he thought it was just a broken formation.

Otherwise, given the power of this formation, even with the Chaos Bell, he wouldn't be able to break it. Moreover, if the formation hadn't been broken by the massive life energy, he probably wouldn't have been able to discover the roots of the Nine-Bend Heavenly Tree!

Fortunately, all of this was just a hypothetical, and he did get the Nine-Bend Heavenly Tree root he wanted!

"Then those men in black robes might have come for the roots of the Nine-Bend Heavenly Tree. We can investigate in that direction to see if any other forces or individuals know that you obtained the roots of the Nine-Bend Heavenly Tree." Taihao wanted to find some clues from this and see if he could also unravel some of the mysteries surrounding the ancestral hall!

After listening to the words of the Lonely Lamp Daoist, Taihao felt that those who attacked the Life Space and those who helped the Ancestral Temple's hostile forces belonged to the same force, and most likely they were people from the top worlds in the Eastern Universe. However, he did not yet have the strength to fight against the forces of the top worlds!

Even the patriarchs of the Ancestral Hall in the top world don't know much about it, or rather, the information they have given him is very limited!

Taihao is now filled with anticipation and curiosity about that world, which he only knows is a top-tier world, but knows nothing else about its specifics!

What kind of world is it that makes all the forces in the entire Eastern universe turn pale at the mere mention of it, and unwilling to even speak of it?

Taihao wants to figure these things out. Right now, he needs to understand everything about the top world or directly elevate his strength to a whole new level!

Only then will he have the strength and confidence to find the answers he seeks!

The information the Ancestral Ancestor gave him was that there was a top-tier world in the Eastern Universe, and its strength was extremely powerful. Everyone in it was very strong. Worlds like the Life Space and the Ancestral Ancestor's world, which were about to advance, were all terrified of them!

Taihao searched the Life Space for a while, and then sensed something different outside the forbidden area of ​​the Life Space!

"Where is this place?" Taihao asked the Lonely Lamp Daoist who had been following him closely.

"This is a forbidden area, and no one is allowed to enter. I don't know what's inside. This place existed when our ancestors were still here, but it was their secluded cultivation spot!" Daoist Lone Lamp looked at the forbidden area and then said to Taihao.

"Oh, then wait for me outside. I'll go in and take a look. I have a feeling there's something else here, maybe some clues!" Taihao said to the Lonely Lamp Daoist.

After saying this, without waiting for the Lonely Lamp Daoist's consent, he disappeared and entered the forbidden area of ​​the Life Space!

Seeing this, the Lonely Lamp Daoist felt somewhat helpless. This was a forbidden area in their world, one that he himself had never entered. Yet now, an outsider had directly entered this forbidden area right before his eyes, and he couldn't say anything. How frustrating!
