Taking root was one of the reasons.
Another reason was that with Heavenly Pattern Island's strength, they couldn't leave the inner area of the Sea of Death.
The vitality of living beings.
In the eyes of fierce beasts, it was an irresistible temptation.
There were many Heavenly Man fierce beasts like the Azure King around Heavenly Pattern Island.
As soon as they left the island, they would be attacked by fierce beasts.
If Xia Chao could still display his peak strength, this problem could naturally be solved.
But not now.
Over millions of years, Xia Chao's physical body had decayed and decayed, and his blood and Qi had almost dried up.
Only the Spirit God could fuse with the Dao Artifact.
Moreover, Xia Chao had not completely transformed into an artifact spirit. He still maintained his decaying body in a delicate state.
It could be said that.
Right now, he could only move around in the main hall. Once he walked out of the main hall, his body would instantly decay and disappear.
Without Xia Chao, a tenth level Heavenly Man expert, to lead him.
Although the remaining cultivators of Heavenly Pattern Island weren't weak, they were still far from being able to break out of the Sea of Death.
These words.
Xia Chao didn't say it, but Qin Shujian was well aware of it.
Qin Shujian also didn't say anything about helping the cultivators of Heavenly Pattern Island out of the Sea of Death.
Because with his strength.
He could protect himself, but it wasn't enough to bring people along.
With the dense blood energy on his body, he would be able to encounter Heavenly Man level fierce beasts wherever he went.
If he encountered a powerful fierce beast, even Qin Shujian himself would have to run. How could he have the time to care about others?
It was unknown if Xia Chao knew this in his heart.
Qin Shujian didn't speak. He didn't speak either.
At this moment, Qin Shujian asked again, "With senior's vision, have you ever seen this thing?"
While they were talking.
Qin Shujian outlined a bronze token in the air. It was the token to open the unknown cave.
Xia Chao's calm expression changed slightly when he saw the bronze token.
After a long time.
He nodded and said, "I've seen it before."
"Senior, where have you seen it before?"
Qin Shujian was stunned at first, but he quickly came back to his senses.
He thought that Xia Chao didn't know about the pursuers, so he definitely didn't know about the bronze token.
But Qin Shujian never expected.
Xia Chao really did know.
Even if he couldn't find any information about the pursuers, it would still be a good thing if he could get the bronze token.
The last time he opened the Magnificent Cauldron Cave Abode, he obtained the Spiritual Eye.
Qin Shujian understood that there must be a great opportunity hidden inside the bronze token.
Xia Chao thought for a while and said, "Back then, the Human Emperor had a token like this. But I don't know where it came from. As for where it went, don't ask me."
Qin Shujian's excited heart cooled down.
He had seen it in the hands of the Ancient Human Emperor.
However, many years had passed since the Ancient Era. The Ancient Human Emperor was already dead, and there was no news of the bronze token.
However, from Xia Chao's words …
Qin Shujian also learned another thing.
That was, the existence of the pursuers could be traced all the way back to the Ancient Era, or even further back.
"What happened before the Heavenly Court was established? Was there an era similar to the Primordial Era in the Primordial Era?"
Qin Shujian asked the question in his mind.
The longer the origin of the pursuers, the more powerful the pursuers were.
Xia Chao understood what Qin Shujian meant. He shook his head and said, "The Primordial Era you mentioned is also the era when all races existed. In fact, it existed even further back, but there are no detailed records of that era.
Because at that time, heaven and earth had just been born, and all races were being born one after another.
That was the period when all races were just starting out, and heaven and earth were in a state of ignorance. The bronze token might have been passed down from that time! "
Seeing this …
Qin Shujian did not ask anything else.
Xia Chao knew a lot of things, but there were not many things that were useful to him.
This time …
It was Xia Chao's turn to speak first. "Your Excellency, do you plan to continue going deeper into the Sea of Death or return?"
"I had planned to go deeper before, but now that some of my questions have been answered, there's no need to go deeper."
Qin Shujian said.
Xia Chao said, "That's good. There are many powerful fierce beasts in the depths of the Sea of Death. Even in the Ancient Era, the Sea of Death was an existence that people feared.
There were Emperors of various races, as well as the Emperor Of Heaven, who had entered the deepest part of the Sea of Death.
But after coming out, the Emperors of various races were also injured, so I can be sure that there must be some kind of powerful force in the depths of the sea, or perhaps there are fierce beasts. "
"According to what Senior said, those tyrannical existences are still in the depths of the sea!?"
Qin Shujian was really shocked this time.
The Emperors of various races.
The Emperors that Xia Chao mentioned were not half-baked like the current Human Emperors.
Yes.
When he understood what the ancient Emperors were, the Human Emperors were probably half-baked in Qin Shujian's eyes.
The ancient Emperors were the rulers of the immortals.
He did not know if they had broken through to the immortal level, but they were at least the most powerful experts among all the immortals.
Not to mention, there was also the Emperor Of Heaven leading the team.
With such a lineup, Qin Shujian felt that it was enough to enter the Demon Abyss and kill a wave of people.
In the depths of the sea, to be able to injure the Human Emperors in front of such a lineup, what kind of terrifying fierce beasts could do this?
Thinking of this.
Qin Shujian suddenly felt a great sense of relief.
Fortunately, he did not go in. Otherwise, if he encountered such an existence, he would not even have a chance to escape.
Qin Shujian had already made a lot of guesses about the power of the sea.
He thought that there must be powerful fierce beasts in the depths of the sea. In terms of strength, they might not be much weaker than humans.
But now, looking at it.
It was more than just about the same.
With such strength, even if the words "human" and "demon" were tied together, it would not be enough to fight.
Xia Chao shook his head and said, "After so many years, I'm not sure if the power that injured the Emperors still exists, but as long as we don't go deep into the sea, there won't be any problems.
This was what the Human Emperor told me. "
If it was the Human Emperor, then it was very credible.
Qin Shujian could guess something from the fact that the Emperors of the three races asked the various races to go into the sea to avoid danger.
They were certain that the existence in the depths of the sea could contend against the evil demons, so they let the three races go in to preserve a chance of survival.
They might not be able to deal with the evil demons.
But it was not necessarily a problem for them to protect themselves.
In any case, the strength of the Sea Area was much stronger than what Qin Shujian had imagined, much stronger.
But there was no doubt.
There must be some secrets hidden in the depths of the sea.
Qin Shujian did not intend to explore these secrets. The Emperor Of Heaven had led a group of Emperors of the various races to go in, but it seemed that they could not handle it. With his strength, going in was no different from delivering food.
However, he had a chance to break through and become an immortal in the future.
That was why Qin Shujian had the idea of going in to take a look.
As for before he broke through, he did not have such plans.
Not thinking about the depths of the sea, Qin Shujian asked, "Senior, do you know how the sea was formed?"
"I don't know!"
Xia Chao shook his head and replied straightforwardly. Then, he paused for a moment and said, "I once heard that a ray of light fell, and then the sea appeared.
According to the Emperor's speculation, a supreme powerhouse must have taken action and opened up the sea.
Or maybe it was formed naturally by the laws of heaven and earth, causing the sea to be born. "
Xia Chao said, "But I am more inclined to the latter. I believe you also know that there is a mysterious power in the sea that can leave behind a powerhouse's power imprint and form natural disasters.
This is not something a cultivator can do. Only the laws formed naturally by heaven and earth can reach this level. "
Qin Shujian seemed to have understood something. Then, he thought of another question and said, "The sea can leave behind a powerhouse's power imprint and reproduce it in the form of natural disasters. Then …"
He did not finish his words, but his meaning was very clear.
Xia Chao said faintly, "Yes. Back then, the power imprints of the Emperor Of Heaven and the other Emperors were all left in the sea. There will also be natural disasters. But you can rest assured. I have been in Heavenly Pattern Island for so many years, but I have only seen the power imprints of powerhouses in the past three times."
"…"
Qin Shujian was speechless.
Right now, he only wanted to leave the sea as soon as possible.
Qin Shujian also did not expect that the sea would be so excessive. Even now, the power imprints of the Emperor Of Heaven and the other Emperors were still left in the sea.
Don't listen to Xia Chao's words. It seemed that the number of natural disasters of this level was limited.
But if he really encountered one, it would be a dead end.
The Emperor Of Heaven and the other Emperors were at least Immortal level powerhouses.
Qin Shujian had to run away when facing a natural disaster of a powerhouse, let alone a natural disaster of at least Immortal level.
Even a powerhouse would have to kneel when facing such a natural disaster.
As for how strong an Immortal was, one could know by referring to the Human Emperor.
The Human Emperor definitely had not broken through to Immortal level, but he could easily crush a powerhouse.
Immortal!
Definitely stronger than the Human Emperor.
It was no wonder that no one dared to go deep into the sea. Or it could be said that all those who went deep into the sea were all dead.
It was because the dangers in the sea were so numerous that it was explosive.
Any one of them might be able to kill a Celestial.
Qin Shujian believed that the reason he was able to come here so leisurely was because of his strong luck.
However …
Although Qin Shujian was shocked, a doubt arose in his heart. "If the power of the Emperor Of Heaven and the other Emperors was reproduced, then with Heavenly Rune Island's strength, how could it resist such a natural disaster?"
He directly asked the doubt in his heart.
Heavenly Rune Island seemed to be very strong. It also had a tenth stage Celestial like Xia Chao overseeing it.
But now, Xia Chao was basically crippled. Even if there were still Celestials left, there would not be many of them.
Those natural disasters were all at the Immortal level. With Heavenly Rune Island's strength, it would be destroyed in a matter of minutes.
Xia Chao smiled faintly and said, "When you stepped into Heavenly Rune Island, you should have also discovered that there are some laws on Heavenly Rune Island. This is something left behind by the Emperors of the various races.
These laws come from the same source as the power of the Emperor Of Heaven and the other Emperors. So, when the natural disasters reproduced these laws, it would not cause any damage to Heavenly Rune Island.
In addition, the reason why Heavenly Rune Island could exist for so many years and resist the attacks of the ferocious beasts is because of these laws. "
Qin Shujian nodded.
The power of laws!
Now that he had broken through to the second stage of the Array Dao Grandmaster Realm, he had also started to come into contact with a bit of the power of laws.
However, this power could not be compared to the laws of Heavenly Rune Island.
At the same time …
Xia Qun walked in from outside and stood in front of Xia Chao. Then, he said respectfully, "The people of the Jade Wave Sect and the Saint God Sect have heard that Brother Qin has arrived. They wish to meet you."
The Jade Wave Sect and the Saint God Sect?
Qin Shujian's expression changed. He thought of what Xia Chao had said earlier.
Xia Chao saw his confusion and explained, "The Jade Wave Sect was established by Eldar in the past. The Saint God Sect was established by the Demon Clan in the past. Together with the Human Clan of the Fantasy Ocean Sect, they are the only three factions on Heavenly Rune Island.
Of course, over the years, some people have left the three sects and established their own sects. However, they ultimately did not amount to much. "
"I see."
Qin Shujian nodded and replied.
Heavenly Rune Island was only so big. In his opinion, it was at most the size of the True Dominion.
This area was actually not small.
However, in Qin Shujian's opinion, the Heavenly Rune Island was still too small.
Furthermore, after hundreds of thousands of years, the Heavenly Rune Island would definitely not be able to accommodate so many people.
Could it be that the Heavenly Rune Island also implemented family planning?
This thought surfaced in Qin Shujian's mind before he dismissed it.
It was better not to ask too much about these things.
Subsequently …
Xia Chao said, "The Jade Wave Sect and the Saint God Sect have heard about you. They should also want to know about the current situation. However, it is up to you whether you are willing to go. No one will force you."
"In that case, I will go and meet them!" Qin Shujian did not refuse.
He also wanted to see which experts from the two sects had stayed behind.
Xia Chao nodded and said, "The Jade Wave Sect and the Saint God Sect are not here. If you want to go, I will let Xia Qun take you there. As for me, it is inconvenient for me to leave. After you leave the two sects, you can come to the Fantasy Ocean Sect again."
"Alright!"
Qin Shujian stood up and left with Xia Qun.
Xia Chao sat in his original position. His turbid eyes looked at Qin Shujian's back as he left and let out a long sigh.
"So it has been so long!"
"The Heavenly Court collapsed. Did the Human Emperor really fall?"
Xia Chao did not feel too sad in his heart.
He had already guessed about these things.
After an ancient time, Xia Chao's affection for the Human Emperor had become very thin. After all, millions of years had passed. Many things could be forgotten by time.
However, he had never forgotten the inheritance of the Human Race in the Heavenly Rune Island.
This was his mission, the mission to protect the last foundation of the Human Race.
But now that he saw Qin Shujian's arrival, Xia Chao realized that this mission did not seem so important.
The Human Race was not destroyed.
Then the so-called bloodline in the Heavenly Rune Island was just a part of the Human Race.
"That's good. In the future, the Heavenly Rune Island will only be the Heavenly Rune Island. Nothing else is important!" Xia Chao sighed again.
This breath.
It was as if he had spat out the pressure that had been pressing down on him for countless years.
In an instant.
Xia Chao's back bent a little more. The aura of death on his body became even thicker.
On the other side.
Xia Qun had already left the main hall with Qin Shujian.
Walking in the city.
Xia Qun could not help but turn his head to look at Qin Shujian and ask, "Brother Qin, what did the Supreme Ancestor say to you just now?"
"It's nothing. It's just a casual chat."
Qin Shujian did not say much. He chuckled and said, "Old Senior Xia is very knowledgeable. He has already explained many things to this Qin."
He did not talk about Qin Shujian's evasiveness.
Xia Qun did not mind.
Hearing this, he smiled and said, "Of course. In terms of knowledge, no one in the Heavenly Rune Island can compare to the Supreme Ancestor."
"Could it be that the Blue Wave Sect and the Holy God Sect can't?"
"Uh, more or less …"
Xia Qun's expression stiffened. Then, he smiled embarrassedly.
These words could not be said carelessly.
If the two sects heard it, there would be some conflict. That would not be good.
Qin Shujian said, "The Heavenly Rune Island's spiritual energy is rather dense. It's much denser than the sect I'm in."
"Of course!" Xia Qun smiled proudly and said, "There's a spirit vein below the Heavenly Rune Island. Since we're sitting on top of the spirit vein, the spiritual energy will naturally be denser."
"Spirit vein!?" Qin Shujian was shocked.
He knew that the Heavenly Rune Island definitely had spirit stones. However, he did not expect that there would be a spirit vein.
There were big and small spirit veins.
But with the origins of the three sects, the spirit vein in the Heavenly Rune Island was definitely not small.
Xia Qun said, "The spirit vein is the foundation of the Heavenly Rune Island. There are defensive measures left behind by the various sects. Even if a peak Sky Human expert came, they would not be able to touch the spirit vein."
He said these words for Qin Shujian to hear. He wanted to prevent him from having any improper thoughts about the spirit vein.
Qin Shujian nodded. He also understood the meaning of Xia Qun's words.
The three sects on the island all originated from the ancient era.
How could the measures left behind by the various sects be simple?
It was no wonder that Xia Qun dared to tell him that there was a spirit vein on the island. He knew that he would not be able to touch the spirit vein.
Regarding this.
Qin Shujian could only sneer in his heart.
How could he, Sect Master Qin, be the kind of person who would open his eyes at the sight of a spirit vein?
A mere spirit vein was not enough for him to care about. Even if it did not have any defensive measures … well, if it really did not have any defensive measures, he might be black-hearted and make a move.
During the conversation.
The two of them left Yellow Earth City and headed in a certain direction.
Qin Shujian said, "The Eldar and the Fiend Race also have people like Old Senior Xia, right?"
"Both. Every sect has an ancient expert overseeing it."
Xia Qun casually replied.
What he said to Qin Shujian was not a secret in the Heavenly Rune Island.
Apart from the newly born children, everyone else knew their origins. They were all descendants of the ancient sects.
In order to not let them forget the glory of the past.
The three sects would spread this information for generations to come, so that everyone would firmly remember their identity and origins.
Not long after.
A city appeared in front of the two of them.
It was the same Yellow Earth City.
It was the same palace.
The difference was that most of the people in the city were not of the Human Race, but of the Fiend Race.
Everywhere one could see those who had not fully transformed and had some characteristics of the Fiend Race walking in the city.
There were also those who appeared in front of people with the bodies of the Fiend Race.
Walking into the city, Qin Shujian almost thought that he had entered the Thousand Fiend Country.
However, thinking about it, it was not much different from the Thousand Fiend Country. There were Fiends everywhere, but these Fiends' strength was average.
Qin Shujian did not think about it.
One day, he would walk among the Fiend Race as a human.
Moreover, he could walk freely.
If he did not know about the hatred between the Eastern Continent's Human Race and the Fiend Race, Qin Shujian would have thought that what he experienced was fake.
"What a paradise!"
Qin Shujian suddenly sighed.
The various races were in harmony with each other, without any fighting or killing. This was an island like a paradise.
If the creatures of Heavenly Pattern Island were to return to the Eastern Continent, what would the three sects do?
The Eastern Continent's Human Race and the Fiend Race were like fire and water. The Fiend Race was forced to leave the Eastern Continent. As for the Eldar in the Eastern Continent, almost all of them were dead.
When that time came.
The three sects would probably break up.
Because once a war between races appeared, there would definitely be an irreparable crack in the relationship between the three sects. It was only a matter of time before they split up and fought to the death.
All these years.
Many humans had died at the hands of the Fiend Race, and many Fiend Race had died at the hands of the Human Race.
This hatred had accumulated over so many years that it could not be resolved long ago.
"Unless one day, a figure like the Emperor Of Heaven appears again and rules over all the races in the world, perhaps the glory of the ancient times can be restored!"
Qin Shujian only thought this sentence in his heart and did not say it out loud.
The two of them entered the main hall.
The Fiend Race of the Saint God Sect had already received the news and sent people to wait there.
"Brother Xia!"
A middle-aged man in a yellow robe looked at Xia Qun, first cupped his hands, then looked at Qin Shujian and said, "This must be the expert from the outside!"
Xia Qun nodded and said, "This is Qin Shujian, Brother Qin."
As he spoke, he also introduced to Qin Shujian, "This is Elder Wu Yi of the Saint God Sect!"
"Greetings, Brother Qin!"
"Greetings, Brother Wu!"
The two of them cupped their hands and bowed.
Wu Yi smiled and said, "After so many years, this is the first time I've seen an outsider come. The Ancestor has been waiting for a long time. Brother Qin, please follow me in!"
"Hey, Brother Qin, go in. Don't leave me behind."
Xia Qun called out and said, "When Brother Qin talks with your Ancestor, I still have to take Qin Shujian to the Jade Wave Sect."
Wu Yi nodded and said, "Alright, then Brother Xia, go to the side hall and rest for a while."
Immediately.
Wu Yi called a disciple of the Saint God Sect, took Xia Qun to the side hall to rest, and then took Qin Shujian to meet the Ancestor of the Saint God Sect.
The two of them walked left and right.
Wu Yi said, "The Ancestor hasn't seen anyone for many years. Brother Qin, when you see him later, don't be too shocked. Moreover, the Ancestor has been very approachable these years. If you have anything to say, just say it."
"I understand."
Qin Shujian said.
The Ancestor of the Saint God Sect, like Xia Chao, was an expert from the ancient times.
He would not underestimate such a person.
When walking into the hall, Qin Shujian found that this hall was the same as the hall of the Fantasy Sea Sect, a Dao Artifact.
Not long after.
A side hall had already appeared in their sight.
Wu Yi stepped forward and said respectfully, "Ancestor, the person you want to see has been brought here!"
After saying that.
The door of the hall opened.
Wu Yi turned sideways and said, "The Ancestor is waiting in the hall. Brother Qin, please go in."
Qin Shujian nodded, then looked at the dark hall and stepped in.
