Qian Yu looked in the direction of Qian Daoliu. Having lived through ten lifetimes, Qian Yu's soul power was now unmatched by anyone.
Therefore, even though Qian Yu currently only had a spirit power of level thirty, he could still sense and capture any fluctuations of spirit power around him.
At that moment, a figure in white slowly emerged from the darkness.
The person wore a white robe trimmed with gold edges and had a head of white hair. Qian Yu could feel that the spirit power emanating from this Spirit Master was incredibly formidable.
In fact, it was even more powerful than that of the Clear Sky Douluo.
"Hahaha..." The white-haired elder laughed as he walked step by step toward Qian Yu.
Qian Yu was somewhat surprised and looked at the elder, saying, "If I'm not mistaken, you must be from the Spirit Hall, right?"
The elder nodded but said nothing more, as if testing whether Qian Yu could guess his identity.
"The aura you carry is even stronger than Tang Hao's. In this world, there are only a handful of people who can rival the Clear Sky Douluo. You're certainly not the Spirit Hall's Pope, Bibi Dong, so you must be the Grand Elder of the Spirit Hall."
With those words spoken,
Qian Daoliu froze in place, visibly astonished.
He had come here without uttering a single word, had never shown himself before, and this Qian Yu was only six years old—there was no way he could have seen him before.
Yet, with just one glance, this child could deduce his identity. If it wasn't because the child was exceptionally intelligent, then there was only one possibility: he was the reincarnation of the ancestor.
Qian Daoliu nodded and said, "You guessed correctly."
"You've come here today, so it seems you've already read the texts I left behind," Qian Yu continued.
At these words,
Qian Daoliu looked at Qian Yu with even greater shock.
He stood rooted to the spot, utterly unable to believe it.
Before, he had only thought Qian Yu was the reincarnation of the ancestor, but now, hearing Qian Yu's words, could it be that the ancestor's reincarnation had not lost the memories of his past life?
"You... you really are..." Qian Daoliu was so stunned he could only murmur.
Qian Yu stood calmly before Qian Daoliu and said indifferently, "Ten thousand years ago, I founded the Spirit Hall. I had my life's deeds recorded in the Spirit Hall's texts and left behind twelve tokens.
One Ancestor Token, one Pope Token, and ten Elder Tokens.
Finally, on the last page of the texts, I left a sentence: 'After ten thousand years, I shall return through reincarnation and rule the world!'
Since you are the Grand Elder of the Spirit Hall, you should recognize this token!"
As Qian Yu spoke, a token suddenly flew toward Qian Daoliu.
Qian Daoliu caught the token, and immediately, a unique sensation emanated from it.
The patterns on the token were identical to the emblem of their Spirit Hall.
Moreover, the material of this token was exactly the same as that of their own tokens—there could be no mistake.
This was the genuine Ancestor Token.
In other words, was this Qian Yu truly their ancestor, Qian Yu, from all those years ago?
At this moment, Qian Daoliu's hands began to tremble.
Qian Yu remained utterly composed, looking at Qian Daoliu as he said calmly, "Ten thousand years ago, I reached the pinnacle of the continent. However, I chose not to ascend to the divine realm but instead opted for reincarnation, remaining in this world.
Now, I have returned through reincarnation, and all the memories of those years remain intact in my mind. So, you need not be surprised that I still possess those memories."

At this point, Qian Daoliu began to tremble slightly.
He understood that there could be no doubt now.
This Qian Yu was undoubtedly their ancestor.
At that moment, Qian Yu released his Netherworld Begonia martial soul and said with a faint smile, "You might not recognize other things, but surely you recognize this martial soul!"
A black begonia instantly appeared in Qian Yu's hand.
From the begonia flower, waves of netherworld death energy emanated.
Within that death energy, there was also a hidden vitality.
This was indeed the martial soul of their Spirit Hall's ancestor—the Netherworld Begonia.
Seeing the martial soul, Qian Daoliu immediately bowed and said, "Grand Elder of the Spirit Hall, Qian Daoliu, pays respects to the Ancestor!"
Qian Yu nodded calmly and said, "There's no need for such formality."
Only then did Qian Daoliu slowly rise.
At this point, Qian Daoliu asked with confusion, "Ancestor, since you've returned through reincarnation, why not come back to our Spirit Hall?"
Qian Yu looked at Qian Daoliu calmly and replied indifferently, "Because my goal is to become a god. To become a god, one must undergo trials in the mortal world. That's why I didn't go to the Spirit Hall.
Secondly, although I retain the memories of my past life, my cultivation is completely gone, and everything must start anew. Even if I came to the Spirit Hall, I'm afraid few would believe what I say.
Given that, I chose to cultivate in the secular world, planning to return once my level is higher."
Hearing this, Qian Daoliu nodded and said, "The Ancestor speaks the truth. The Spirit Hall is no longer under my control. Now, all the power in the Spirit Hall rests in Bibi Dong's hands. Given her nature, she wouldn't easily hand the Spirit Hall over to anyone else.
I fear even the Ancestor would face resistance.
If Bibi Dong learned of the Ancestor's existence, she might even try to eliminate him—it's entirely possible.
Because that woman would stop at nothing to protect her power."
Qian Yu remained very calm. Qian Daoliu was right—in the original story, Bibi Dong indeed had such a personality.
For the development of the Spirit Hall, Bibi Dong would remove any obstacle.
However, Qian Yu also knew from the original story that Bibi Dong's actions were all driven by her desire to unify the entire Douluo Continent.
The Spirit Hall was originally the strongest spirit institution on the Douluo Continent, and unifying the continent was not wrong in itself.
The unification of the continent could bring greater prosperity and peace to the Douluo Continent. Although the process of unification would inevitably cost much bloodshed, Qian Yu was still very supportive of this matter.
Therefore, Qian Yu had no intention of seizing the power from Bibi Dong's hands.
"What are the Ancestor's plans next?" Qian Daoliu asked with a bow.
Qian Yu replied indifferently, "Since I've chosen this path, I will follow it to the end. So, I hope my identity remains known only to those who already know it. I don't want anyone else to learn of my identity.
I will continue cultivating here, and when the time is right, I will naturally return to the Spirit Hall."
Qian Daoliu immediately bowed and said, "Yes!"
Qian Yu remained very calm and said indifferently, "Alright, you may go back now. If I need anything, I will come to you. I also know what you seek. When the time is right, I will tell you the method to become a god!"
Qian Yu knew that even though Qian Daoliu was his descendant, without offering him some benefit, he would never obey his commands willingly.
He also knew that Qian Daoliu's greatest desire was to become a god, so he used the method of godhood to bind Qian Daoliu to him.
At these words, Qian Daoliu froze in place.
