Chapter 891: The Transformation of the Wolf Ancestor

Outside the palace, a multitude of powerful wolf clan members stood guard. Among them were Tianxian realm experts like Shapo, Qingyun, and Zhi Huo, all vigilantly protecting the palace. Nearly every formidable member of the Da Jing wolf clan had gathered here. The foot of the mountain was filled with wolves, each bearing a solemn expression as they guarded the palace.

Suddenly, a massive surge of energy burst from the palace roof, sending endless white light shooting into the sky, scattering the clouds. A majestic aura erupted outward.

"Awooooooo!"

A deafening wolf howl echoed from the palace. Suddenly, infinite starlight descended from the distant cosmos, streaming directly into the palace. In the void, countless wolf souls appeared, rushing into the palace at an incredible speed, converging like rivers flowing into the sea.

Starlight, white light, and the green glow of souls enveloped the entire palace in a dazzling array of colors.

Shapo, Qingyun, Zhi Huo, and other elite wolves suddenly dropped to one knee, eyes filled with reverence. The rest of the wolves transformed into their wolf forms, prostrating themselves on the ground. The entire mountain, surrounded by wolves, bowed in reverence to the palace above.

The wolves did not know what was happening inside the palace, but a deep soul pressure made every wolf feel their very souls tremble. This was the oppression of high bloodline over lower bloodline, a sensation only felt when the disparity was immensely vast.

Shapo and the other wolves sensed that this high bloodline pressure was far stronger than what Di Xuan had once imposed on them, much stronger, like the awe-inspiring presence of ancient wolves.

Over the past two years since becoming immortal, the wolves had felt this pressure once, but Xianxian had always restrained it. Now, as Xianxian broke through, the released aura made all wolves feel profound fear and infinite worship.

Supreme majesty, revealed for the first time since Di Xuan\'s departure, as Xianxian exhibited her supreme dignity.

A single wolf howl shook the heavens. Not only in Changjing, but throughout the entire Da Jing territory and even the whole Zhuanlun domain, countless lower-ranked wolves prostrated themselves. Even hunters, during their hunts, found wolves unable to move in their presence.

Noble wolf bloodline! Astonishing and awe-inspiring.

A mere release of soul aura was enough to establish the supreme status of the wolf clan in the Zhuanlun domain.

A gentle breeze blew as Zhong Shan arrived atop the peak with his ministers. They gazed at the enormous palace before them.

Xianxian\'s aura had surged for an entire hour. This breakthrough into the Da Xian realm seemed far more significant than expected.

"Transformation of the Wolf Ancestor?" Wang Ku pondered aloud.

"Transformation of the Wolf Ancestor? What do you mean?" Zhong Shan inquired.

"Your Majesty, there has always been a legend in this world. In ancient times, the wolf clan had a peerless expert, revered as the progenitor of the wolf clan. His bloodline was passed down, but over time, it became diluted. Occasionally, however, a wolf with a purer ancestral bloodline would emerge, and each of these prodigies would achieve extraordinary feats. The purer the ancestral bloodline, the greater the achievements. The transformation of the Wolf Ancestor is exceedingly rare. Each transformation deepens the ancestral bloodline, bringing various mysterious abilities known only to the transformed wolves. In recent times, the most transformations by a single wolf were three, making them the strongest below a saint. Xianxian Supreme appears to be experiencing her first transformation!" Wang Ku explained.

"Transformation of the Wolf Ancestor?" Zhong Shan furrowed his brow, looking intently at the palace.

At this moment, the myriad lights gradually faded away.

"Boom!"

The grand palace doors swung open with a thunderous roar.

Xianxian, draped in a white fur robe, stepped out of the palace. The green hue in her eyes gradually dissipated. Her once youthful and lively demeanor had now matured significantly.

"Greetings, Supreme!"

Almost all the wolves at the foot of the mountain bowed simultaneously. Their collective voice was thunderous, filled with reverence.

"Rise," Xianxian commanded.

"Thank you, Supreme!" The multitude of wolves stood up, surrounding the area respectfully.

Xianxian then turned her gaze towards Zhong Shan.

"Haha, Zhong Shan, did you know that just now..." Xianxian\'s previously serious demeanor shifted to a cheerful tone as she addressed Zhong Shan with a grin.

However, sensing that her tone might not be appropriate, she paused and glanced around. "Alright, you all may leave for now."

"Yes!" The wolves complied.

Zhong Shan smiled slightly and turned to his ministers. "Court is dismissed. You may all leave."

"Yes!" The ministers responded.

Soon, the ministers and wolves dispersed.

Once everyone had left, Xianxian relaxed and said, "Being so serious all the time is exhausting!"

"Di Xuan has left, and now you are the Supreme of the wolf clan. How can a Supreme lack dignity?" Zhong Shan replied with a smile.

"That\'s why, ever since Grandpa left, I\'ve felt so much pressure. By the way, I was telling you about something earlier. Guess what happened when I broke through?" Xianxian\'s eyes sparkled with excitement.

"The transformation of the Wolf Ancestor?" Zhong Shan guessed with a smile.

"Huh? How did you know?"

"I just heard about it. It seems you\'re not the only one in the world capable of the Wolf Ancestor transformation. Don\'t get too proud now."

"But I just had a breakthrough! Let me be proud for a little while, just a little while!" Xianxian pouted, clinging to Zhong Shan\'s arm playfully.

"Alright, just for a little while," Zhong Shan chuckled.

Although Xianxian had reached the Da Xian realm, her personality remained bright and cheerful—perhaps only so around Zhong Shan.

"This time, I\'m really powerful. Did you know? The transformation of the Wolf Ancestor, I had only heard my grandfather mention it. I never thought I could undergo it myself. Just now, it felt like I received a lot through the bloodline inheritance, many abilities only I can use. Could these be divine abilities?" Xianxian chatted happily with Zhong Shan.

"Divine abilities?" Zhong Shan was slightly taken aback.

"Yes, from now on, I will take Grandpa\'s place as your strongest support. With me here, no one can harm you!" Xianxian said earnestly.

Just as Zhong Shan was about to respond, a sudden chill ran down his spine.

"Bang!"

Behind Zhong Shan, a circular scroll abruptly unfurled.

The Emperor\'s Picture! The Yin Picture of the Emperor!

In this eerie moment, an assassination attempt was made. The Emperor\'s Picture instinctively shielded Zhong Shan.

A streak of light, a golden streak, bizarrely appeared, piercing through the Emperor\'s Picture, then strangely rebounding and vanishing into the distance.

"An assassin?" Xianxian\'s expression darkened.

The sunlight in her demeanor instantly vanished, replaced by a chilling shadow as she glared at the spot where the golden light had disappeared.

"Whoosh!"

Xianxian\'s figure flickered and disappeared from sight.

The assassination attempt on the mountaintop created a commotion, drawing numerous Da Jing experts. Wang Ku swiftly followed after Xianxian.

Grabbing the Emperor\'s Picture, Zhong Shan\'s face turned grim.

"Sacred King, are you alright?" Yi Yan and the others quickly inquired.

"Summon Nangong Sheng!" Zhong Shan commanded in a deep voice.

Soon, Nangong Sheng arrived.

"Sacred King!" Nangong Sheng greeted respectfully.

"The arrow was shot from outside Changjing. You\'re in charge of the city\'s formations. How did such a powerful arrow bypass the defenses unnoticed?" Zhong Shan asked sternly.

"There was no reaction from the Four Directions Grand Array. I don\'t know how it happened!" Nangong Sheng replied, frowning deeply.

Though Nangong Sheng\'s cultivation was higher than Zhong Shan\'s, none dared defy Zhong Shan\'s long-standing authority.

In the distance, a flash of white and black light signaled Xianxian and Wang Ku\'s return.

"Bang!" "Bang!"

Wang Ku tossed down two individuals. One was alive, the other dead.

The living man, dressed in a red robe, looked terrified. His face was drenched in cold sweat, and his chest appeared to have been heavily struck, flesh mangled—clear signs of Xianxian\'s earlier assault. The dead man had a golden arrow embedded in his chest, his body shriveled and ancient.

"This dead man shot the arrow, and this accomplice is a wolf, but not from the Da Jing wolf clan. I leave their fate to you," Xianxian said angrily.

"A wolf?" Zhong Shan\'s eyes turned cold.

The red-robed man, terrified and clearly outmatched, was quickly captured. Surrounded by powerful figures, he seemed doomed.

With a look of resolve, the red-robed man\'s eyes showed a glimmer of determination.

"You want to commit suicide? Don\'t worry, after you die, I will refine your soul!" Wang Ku said calmly.

Seeing Wang Ku\'s expression, the red-robed man\'s heart sank.

"Speak! Who sent you?" Zhong Shan demanded.

"You can\'t kill me! I am from the Spacetime Dojo. Do you know who this is? He is the disciple of the Dojo\'s leader. If you kill him, you\'re all doomed! The leader will hunt you down when he emerges. No one will escape!" the red-robed man shouted.

"Spacetime Dojo? I was already thinking of finding you, and now you\'ve come to me?" Zhong Shan\'s eyes flashed with a cold light.

At this moment, Nangong Sheng approached the corpse and pulled out the golden arrow. As he did, the body shriveled further, becoming a desiccated husk.

"This arrow?" Nangong Sheng murmured, astonished that it had pierced Changjing\'s defenses unnoticed.

"Hiss!" Nangong Sheng let out a gasp as if his fingers were suddenly flicked away.

Everyone looked at Nangong Sheng.

"Sacred King, this arrow is peculiar. It has a unique feeling to it," Nangong Sheng said, frowning.

The ministers examined the arrow.

"Time attribute! This arrow is imbued with a time attribute," Wang Ku said after some thought.

"What is its effect?" Zhong Shan asked.

"Once shot, it\'s faster than any other arrow because it contains the power of time. It feels as if the world stands still while it moves. This is the power of the time attribute, allowing it to bypass the grand array. The array might be functioning, but before the time attribute, it appears frozen, and the arrow slips through the gaps. Additionally, it can instantly age and kill anyone it hits, even a Da Xian. However, it met you, Sacred King, and fate had other plans," Wang Ku explained seriously.

"Time attribute?" Zhong Shan\'s face darkened.

"Great Da Jing Sacred King, we didn\'t intend to shoot you. I didn\'t order the shot. It was his idea. It has nothing to do with me!" the red-robed man pleaded fearfully.

"You didn\'t intend to shoot me? Then who was your target?" Zhong Shan demanded.

"To... to shoot..." The red-robed man glanced at Xianxian, unable to speak.

"To shoot me?" Xianxian asked coldly.

"Yes, yes. At first, we only intended to shoot you, but he said the Great Da Jing Sacred King was also a threat. And since you were together, we decided to..." the red-robed man stammered.
