Chapter 336 Ancient Secrets
"Aren't these statements about alien races enough?" Lu Xun said in his heart as he listened to his teacher's words.
Sir, this answer is very similar to what you often post:
——“That’s it?”
After Lu Xun pondered for a few seconds, he sorted out his understanding and intelligence about the alien race in his mind. After thinking about it, he still did not add anything.
He has said everything that can be said, but some information cannot be undone once it is said.
What's more, he knew one very helpful thing, that is, the gentleman seemed to hate foreigners!
The Eastern Region where the Demon Sect is located is a forbidden area for aliens. Once an alien dares to enter, the master will use his divine sense to place a mark on the visitor and then send the third senior brother to deal with him.
Lu Xun had personally witnessed how his third senior brother performed a smooth and seamless operation to scatter the ashes of the foreign woman.
Although he didn't know why the master hated foreigners, nor did he know whether the master knew something, he understood that whether based on the master-disciple relationship or based on the master's own attitude, the master was on his side.
So, he pretended to be dumb and repeated the details of the interrogation of Yin Tian, and then said, "These are what I got out of my questioning, but I have too little experience, so did I miss something?"
Anyway, I am young and my cultivation is low. If you think there is a problem, you as a teacher can supplement it yourself!
Upon hearing this, the gentleman once again stared at Lu Xun for a few rare moments, looking at his rogue appearance, and said:
“Wow!”
He raised his right hand with his fingers curled up , pointed at Lu Xun and wanted to say something, but in the end he held it back.
He waved his hand and said, "Take a rest first. I'll go talk to Shen Yan and the others."
After saying this, he turned into a stream of light and disappeared.
Lu Xun breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the master had come in person.
He made the right bet.
Ever since the last time Third Senior Brother dealt with the foreign woman, Lu Xun guessed that Master might know something.
It would definitely be much better for him to go and negotiate in person than for Lu Xun to do it.
And according to his memory, when he played "Tianchen" in his previous life, among the seven major sects, the Demon Sect was the first to stand up and express its attitude towards alien races, and its attitude was very firm.
He didn't pay much attention to this information when playing the game, and just regarded it as the background story of the game. As a player, he only focused on killing monsters and completing tasks.
Thinking about it now, it is quite intriguing.
Seeing that the master was heading to the Demon Sect's main peak, Lu Xun moved closer to the third senior brother and said, "Second senior sister, third senior brother, has the master been paying attention to this force for a long time?"
Second Senior Sister Gu Xiaoman did not speak. Third Senior Brother had more say in this regard. After all, he had killed many men of foreign races in the Eastern Region. He spoke:
"The gentleman said that these people have an aura that makes him feel disgusted. He suspects that these people are the remnants of the ancient catastrophe."
“What!?” Lu Xun was stunned for a moment and asked, “Ancient catastrophe?”
The third brother nodded and said, "It is the ancient catastrophe."
"Third Brother, can you explain it in detail?" Lu Xun asked.
This was a secret that players had not discovered before he traveled through time!
He just knew that there was such a catastrophe, but he didn't know what it was exactly.
It is even possible that few people in the entire Tianchen Continent know the inside story!
Zhuge Laifu nodded and said, "Second Senior Sister and I don't know much, maybe Senior Senior Brother knows more, so I will tell you what I know."
Following the description of his third senior brother, Lu Xun had a basic understanding of the so-called ancient catastrophe.
The ancient times of Tianchen Continent have a long history.
As mentioned before, the threshold for cultivation in ancient times was very high. One had to have at least 5 ripples, or a level of enlightenment of 5, before one could cultivate.
This is equivalent to today's little genius, who would be at the bottom of the list in ancient times.
It was not until after the catastrophe that a powerful man emerged, modified the basic techniques, improved the practice methods, and lowered the practice threshold, so that it became like it is now, where one can practice with only an enlightenment level of 1.
A new era for practitioners has arrived!
Back in ancient times, there were not as many practitioners as there are now. But since they were all talented and the spiritual energy was more abundant at that time, they were basically all highly skilled.
Yes, it is said that the spiritual energy in ancient times was at least twice as dense as it is now!
This is also the reason why the demon race flourished in ancient times.
The cultivation of the demon race depends more on the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and the essence of the sun and the moon than human practitioners.
In the early stages of the demon race, the cultivation speed is already slow, and when the spiritual energy is not rich enough, the speed will be greatly reduced.
Although demon cultivators are often stronger at the same level, they gradually become weaker over time due to the decrease of spiritual energy.
Until now, the Great Sage has not been seen among the demon tribe.
"The spiritual energy now is not as good as before ?" Lu Xun couldn't help but ask.
The third senior brother nodded and said, "Just now I heard you say, little junior brother, that these alien races cannot give back to the world after death, but they can absorb and transform spiritual energy on weekdays, and only one out of ten can be retained. This is really thought-provoking."
Could it be that... the so-called ancient catastrophe was the first invasion of the Tianchen Continent by alien races many years ago?
And what we are facing now is actually the second alien invasion?
"If it is true as you said, sir, that these people are the remnants of the ancient catastrophe, then it makes sense." Lu Xun said.
“But Third Brother, why is there so little record of such an important matter?” Lu Xun wondered.
The third brother shook his head and said, "I don't know about that."
After he finished speaking, he looked up at the Second Senior Sister on the boulder and asked, "Second Senior Sister, do you have anything to add?"
The second sister, who was wearing a black Taoist robe and had a thin back, replied: "No...no."
It seems that Second Senior Sister only knows a limited amount.
There may be some hidden story behind this.
However, combined with the memories of the large-scale invasion of alien races in his previous life, Lu Xun felt that many things did not make sense.
But he couldn't figure it out for a moment.
Then don’t think about it for now, just take it one step at a time.
Now they are just some scattered fragments and cannot form a complete puzzle. He needs to master more fragments.
At this time, Lu Xun remembered another thing.
——Where is my stupid crow?
He had previously asked Xu Zhongcheng to take the Ling Ya back to the Demon Sect, and the Ling Ya should have returned to the back mountain of the Demon Sect long ago.
But why didn’t I see it when I came back?
"Third Brother, where is the crow I raised?" Lu Xun asked .
"Oh, the crow, it's in seclusion." said the third brother.
"Retreat?" Lu Xun was slightly stunned.
"Well, the master said he went into seclusion." said the third senior brother.
Lu Xun opened his pet interface and took a look, and found that the word "Unknown" was written on the level of the crow.
Could it be that he is really practicing in seclusion and has been upgrading?
But it feels weird that a stupid crow would go into seclusion.
However, it becomes understandable when one considers that this crow may be related to the fourth generation ancestor of Wuji Mountain, the smiling puppet.
At this time, the third senior brother stood up and said, "Let's all go back to the small study first. The second senior sister has reached the critical moment of breakthrough . We should not disturb her too much."
Lu Xun nodded and looked up at the slightly thin figure on the boulder.
Is Second Sister finally going to break through?
This means that Second Senior Sister will soon no longer be confined in the bamboo forest and can come out! ?
