Chapter 1134 The Ancestral Temple

“Hahaha, we haven’t seen each other for 18 years. In that battle… Alas, forget it. I thought that you, a poor child, were no longer alive. I didn’t expect that the heavens did bless the Ding family. It’s good that you’re fine.” Ding Xingmu couldn’t hide his excitement. He patted Ding Hao on the shoulder, and there was a trace of tears in his eyes. He said, “I remember that 18 years ago when you didn’t even have teeth, I held you. Now you’re so mature. Haha, when I learned from my Third Brother that you’re still alive, I almost went crazy with joy. You deserve to be a man of the Ding family and my eldest brother’s son. A boy can only grow into a man like you after experiencing great hardships!”

Ding Hao had a smile on his face and he was moved.

Ding Xingmu sighed and said, “Kid, I’m really ashamed to have made you suffer all these years. As your uncle, I failed to take care of you…”

Ding Xinghua laughed and said, “Well, Fourth Brother, let’s not talk about what happened back then. Everything has been the past. The Fake God Emperor is dead, and the throne is about to return to our Ding family. What’s gone is gone. You just need to make it up to Hao in the future. Why did you come here empty-handed without even bringing a gift this time?”

!!

Ding Xingmu gave a wry smile and said, “Third Brother, you know that I’ve been down and out all these years. I can’t be compared with you. I don’t have anything valuable… Well, how about this? I’ll give this Tiger Token to Hao as a gift for our first meeting. It’s the only thing of value in my hand.”

As he spoke, he opened his palm, and a golden Tiger Token appeared and was handed over to Ding Hao.

Ding Xinghua was also stunned and said, “You… you’re truly generous. You’re even willing to hand over the Tiger Token of the Domineering Cloud Guards? This is the last… last power you have. Without the Domineering Cloud Guards, you will be a Divine Prince with nothing.”

Hearing this, Ding Hao also quickly stepped back and refused to take the Tiger Token.

“Boy, you have the same temper as your father, but you can’t refuse an elder’s gift. Hao, you must take it.” Ding Xingmu’s tone was very firm.

Ding Busan also whispered in Ding Hao’s ear that the Domineering Cloud Guards were the trusted subordinates of the Fourth Divine Prince. They were made up of 1,000 elite experts. Each of them was powerful enough to take charge of an area alone. Their combat capability was extremely terrifying. Even in the Divine Capital, they were also a force to be feared. In this operation to overthrow the Fake God Emperor, the Domineering Cloud Guards showed a powerful combat capability, which shocked all parties. They were also one of the important bargaining chips for the Fourth Divine Prince, Ding Xingmu, to gain a foothold in the Divine Capital and have a certain right to speak.

When Ding Hao heard that, he refused to take the Tiger Token even more determinedly.

If he got the Tiger Token of the Domineering Cloud Guards, the Fourth Divine Prince would be doing worse off.

Seeing this, Ding Xinghua thought for a moment and said, “Hao, don’t refuse any longer. You should take the Tiger Token of the Domineering Cloud Guards. You’ve just arrived at the Divine Capital and are not familiar with all aspects. I don’t know how many people are secretly watching you. I’m afraid that there will be a lot of obstacles for you to recognize your ancestors this time. The Divine Capital is different from other places. It looks peaceful, but in fact, a storm is about to break out. You’ll have a certain ability to protect yourself when you take charge of the Domineering Cloud Guards.”

Seeing that the two elders were determined, Ding Hao thought for a moment and decided not to hide his power anymore. He waved his hand, and a strange inscription spread out under his feet and covered the whole hall.

At the next moment, the powerful force in Ding Hao’s body slightly broke out and disappeared in a flash.

Ding Xinghua and Ding Xingmu’s faces were instantly full of shock and disbelief.

Ding Hao smiled slightly and said, “Uncles, to tell you the truth, I’m afraid there’s no one in the Divine Capital who can threaten me now. You can rest assured. I’m just worried that I can’t exert the power of the Domineering Cloud Guards as Fourth Uncle does. How about this? I’ll choose ten personal guards who are familiar with the situation and terrain of the city from the Domineering Cloud Guards and keep the others under Fourth Uncle’s command. What do you say?”

The two Divine Princes stared blankly at Ding Hao, and the shocked expressions on their faces had not yet dissipated.

Although Ding Hao’s power disappeared in a flash just now, the two of them still felt the horror of this power in an instant. With their strength, although they were not respected in the Divine Capital, they could still be regarded as experts. But in the face of this power, they were desperate and helpless and felt like they were grass stalks swept into the sea. This was clearly the power of the high-level God Realm.

“Is Hao… already a high-level God Realm Master?”

Ding Xinghua was particularly shocked, because less than a year ago, Ding Hao’s strength was only at the one-apertured God Realm. How did he make such achievements that other geniuses might not be able to achieve in their whole lives in such a short time?

After a short period, the two Divine Princes looked at each other and saw the ecstasy in their eyes.

“Amazing. This is amazing. Hao, I didn’t expect that…” Ding Xinghua laughed loudly and said, “Now all problems can be solved. Hao, you have such strength. I don’t think anyone in the Divine Capital would dare to stop you from recognizing your ancestors. Humph, those who have wishful thinking can give up completely. Originally, Fourth Brother, several people, and I also wanted to promote you to the position of the supreme God Emperor, but we felt that you were not experienced enough. You have never worked in God’s Palace in all these years. Even if we manage to get you to be the God Emperor, I’m afraid that others will agree in public but disagree in private. All kinds of complicated things will happen one after another, which will affect your cultivation and martial arts achievements. Unexpectedly, hahaha…”

Ding Xingmu continued, “I didn’t expect that you had already achieved this. Now there will be no problem. When you go to the ancestral temple to recognize your ancestors and restore the bloodline identity of the Ding family, Third Brother and I will definitely promote you to the position of God Emperor. With such strength, you can easily destroy all obstacles. Hahahaha, the heavens do bless the Ding family. The position that should have belonged to your father in the past will be taken back by you, which can’t be more appropriate.”

When Ding Hao heard that, he was also shocked.

“They want me to become the God Emperor of God’s Palace?”

It turned out that his two uncles had such a plan.

Honestly, Ding Hao had considered this matter. After the Fake God Emperor died, no one could temporarily hold the position of God Emperor, which caused chaos in God’s Palace on the Eastern Continent. The throne that should have belonged to Ding Hao’s father Ding Shengtan was occupied by the 13th Divine Prince. If he could take it back by himself, his father would definitely be gratified. However, Ding Hao was also worried that it would cause great controversy and killing if he competed for the throne. This was not a good sign and was very likely to be taken advantage of by some people with ulterior motives.

At the thought that the killing and turmoil would increase the killing power between heaven and earth and cause the dark power to increase sharply, Ding Hao began to hesitate.

Nowadays, the greatest threat to this world was Hades True Immortal, who was hidden in the shadows.

To Ding Hao, the position of the God Emperor meant nothing but prestige on the surface.

Because the power that he had mastered now was no worse than that of the eastern God’s Palace.

Ding Hao did not say anything more about the proposal of the two Divine Princes. The family was happy at the banquet. During this time, the Ninth Divine Prince came after hearing the news. He was also an important member of the troops of the eldest Divine Prince Ding Shengtan in the past, but because he had a stubborn character and did things straightforwardly, he had been under house arrest by the Fake God Emperor in recent years. It was not until these days that he was released. He had less power than Ding Xinghua and Ding Xingmu. Before the banquet began, Ding Xinghua had sent someone to invite him, and he was only present by now.

“This is great. I didn’t expect to see Hao again in my lifetime.” The Ninth Divine Prince nodded with a smile. Although he was less than a hundred years old, his hair was already gray and his body was a little hunchbacked. Over the years, his strength had been sealed by the Fake God Emperor, and the environment of the prison he stayed in was not nice. He had suffered a lot, and his whole body was quite aged. He was the most miserable one among the Divine Sons back then.

Ding Hao also respectfully saluted.

He had always been grateful to the elders in his father’s faction. Moreover, Ding Xingxue was his biological uncle.

Ding Xingxue, the Ninth Divine Prince, patted Ding Hao on the shoulder with a smile and said no more.

On this day’s family feast, the host and the guests were having a great time.

Only the chefs in the Divine Prince’s Mansion were almost exhausted. Evil Moon had a crazy appetite. Dozens of chefs worked non-stop for a whole day. The dishes they made barely made the Demon King half full. The direct consequence was that as long as the chefs in the mansion heard that it was Evil Moon who came over, they would immediately find an excuse to ask for leave and escape.

In the ancestral temple of the Ding family.

Since the Ding family established the Divine Palace to pacify the Eastern Continent, they built the ancestral temple on the top of the divine mountain in the center of the Divine Capital to enshrine all their ancestors. It was the most solemn and sacred place of the entire God’s Palace. It was heavily guarded. Usually, except for the God Emperor and the Divine Sons, no one else would be qualified to get within ten kilometers of the ancestral temple.

Every year, the ancestral temple would be opened.

The God Emperor of the God’s Palace would lead his people to worship their ancestors, which was one of the most important events of God’s Palace every year.

The trees on the top of the divine mountain were lush and green. They were all millennium-old spiritual trees. Divine medicines and strange herbs could be seen everywhere. The Spiritual Qi was so abundant that it was almost liquefied, lingering around the mountain like mist. The divine mountain towered into the clouds. It was the highest place in the Divine Capital and the center of the Earthveins. It was said that as long as one could suppress the Earthveins here, one would control the fate of the Eastern Continent and would not decline for tens of thousands of years.

In the early morning, mists swirled about, and the air was fresh.

Before the sun rose, Ding Xinghua and the others had led Ding Hao to the foot of the divine mountain.

“Only the bloodline of the Ding family can open the ancestral temple. This time, for you to recognize your ancestors, your bloodline must be used to open the ancestral temple. If you can open it, there will be no doubt about your bloodline,” Ding Xinghua said with a serious look.

As he spoke, dozens of figures appeared in front of them, all of them extremely powerful.

“Why are they also here?” Ding Xingmu frowned.

While they were talking, several people in front of them had already come over. The leader was also wearing a bright yellow robe. He was burly with thick black hair. He had a smile on his face and bright eyes. At first glance, one could tell that he was a powerful figure. He came over and said, “Third Brother, Fourth Brother, and Ninth Brother, I didn’t expect you to come so early. It seems that you are really a little hasty.”
