In the 100th year of the New Calendar, the seed of the Tree of Life sprouted on the planet. The Five Great Masters never thought that we could look down on them from the planet …
In the 200th year of the New Calendar, the Tree of Life grew. The first Spirit Clan was born on the Armored Planet. This was the first Spirit Clan to be born on the planet. Our entire clan was excited …
In the 300th year of the New Calendar, the Tree of Life grew. The Spirit Clan that was born on the ten planets also grew up with the passage of time. Their talents were far beyond our imagination …
In the 400th year of the New Calendar, they grew up. We nurtured them like our own children and taught them everything that we could. We told them that there was a continent in the starry sky. That was the land where our ancestors lived …
In the 500th year of the New Calendar, I never thought that darkness would descend on our heads. It was a night without light. Life began to wither in that night. The newborn Spirit Clan became restless and manic. Their bodies would often emit the aura of death from the darkness. Their eyes …
…
In the 1000th year of the New Calendar, this was the Millennium Era. Everything that we had envisioned became nothing. Our people fell into panic. They no longer had the vision they had before. On the Divine Continent, our people all requested to withdraw from the ten planets of the New Era … It was also in this year that the war broke out …
In the 1090th year of the New Calendar, we did everything we could. However, our children could no longer turn back. They walked into the darkness, into the abyss …
The diary ended there. The last word of the last sentence was only recorded halfway. It was as if many indescribable things had happened at that moment.
The scenes recorded in the Jade Slips made Ye Tianze feel like he had returned to ten thousand years ago.
"New Race?" Ye Tianze was puzzled. "They walked into the darkness, into the abyss. But I can't see any traces of war."
He kept the Jade Slips and slowly fell into deep thought. He could no longer imagine the fear that the Spirit Clan faced. However, when he thought about the current situation of the Spirit Clan, he seemed to be able to understand some of it.
When he walked out of the attic, a black shadow suddenly flashed past. Ye Tianze thought that he had seen wrongly at first, but he soon realized that was not the case.
There was a figure standing on a huge rock in the distance. He was wearing a black robe. Ye Tianze could only see a pair of scarlet eyes staring at him.
If it were a normal person, they would have been scared out of their wits. But Ye Tianze calmly looked back at him. In those eyes, he could feel violence and cruelty, without a trace of kindness.
"Stop!" Ye Tianze's figure flashed, and he rushed over with his spear in hand.
Ye Tianze chased after him all the way to the top of the mountain. Suddenly, he saw an altar.
On this altar, the black-robed figure stopped. Only now did Ye Tianze see clearly that this was not a person, but a member of the Spirit Race.
"You abandoned us, so why did you come back … …" the black-robed Spirit Race member said with his back to him.
"I don't know what you're talking about," Ye Tianze said.
Because of the Essence Qi, he still maintained the appearance of a Spirit Race member. He had not transformed.
At this moment, the black-robed Spirit Race member suddenly turned his head. He stared at him with his scarlet eyes and said coldly, "You don't know? Then why did you collect those books and Jade Slips? "
Ye Tianze felt a bone-chilling aura from the black-robed Spirit Race member. It was not an oppressive aura, but an instinctive fear.
"The power of death!" A voice suddenly said. It was Taiyi, who had not responded in a long time. "His body is filled with the aura of death, but strangely, he is not a Corpse Ghost. He is … …"
Clearly, even Taiyi did not know what this was because he had not experienced it in his previous life.
"A creature of darkness," Ye Tianze said.
"Very appropriate," Taiyi said.
Ye Tianze thought that he would respond, but he realized that he did not speak. It was as if this thing in front of him was not a threat at all.
"Why is your aura different from mine?" Ye Tianze asked.
"The Tree of Life has withered, and the seed can no longer germinate. This universe does not belong to you … …" the black-robed Spirit Race member said.
"Does it belong to you?" Ye Tianze asked.
"It does not belong to us. It belongs to death … …" the black-robed Spirit Race member said. "The beginning of life is the birth of death. You will all belong to death."
Ye Tianze's gaze flitted past the black-robed figure and suddenly looked into the depths of the altar. He saw a tree standing there, but this tree was already withered and half broken. It looked like it had been struck by lightning. The leaves had long since rotted away.
However, in the broken half of the withered tree, Ye Tianze saw a sprout growing. It seemed to be absorbing the nutrients of the old tree and was doing its best to grow.
As if sensing Ye Tianze's gaze, the black-robed Spirit Race member suddenly said, "You came not only for the books, but also for this sprout seed. Unfortunately, I cannot let you take it away!"
Ye Tianze really did want this seed. If his guess was correct, this was definitely a new sprout of the Tree of Life. Moreover, it had been born from the Longevity Tree and had survived so many disasters. It could still germinate. It was definitely not inferior to the original seed.
However, the Spirit Race member in front of him was not easy to deal with. Moreover, he had come here for another goal, and that was the green light.
"I came here to find the source of the green light. There is a lamp there, right?" Ye Tianze asked.
"So it's for the ancient lamp!" The black-robed Spirit Race member sneered. "That is the guide of darkness. You cannot take it away, and you cannot let it be extinguished!"
"It seems to me that you have no intention of stopping me," Ye Tianze said.
"Oh, why would you think that?" the black-robed Spirit Race member asked.
"If you wanted to stop me, you would have killed me as soon as I got here," said Ye Tianze. "That's why you wanted me to take the lamp and the seed away. Otherwise, you wouldn't have lured me here."
"You are smarter than I thought. However, smart Spirit Race members do not live long," the black-robed Spirit Race member said. "Human!"
"If you already knew, then why are you wasting so much time with me?" Ye Tianze said.
"I only just realized because only humans are so cunning," the black-robed Spirit Race member said.
Ye Tianze did not speak. Instead, he took out the Jade Slips and said, "These are your Jade Slips, right?"
The black-robed Spirit Race member's eyes flashed. In the end, he nodded and said, "Since you are a human, let's make a deal. I will help you remove the seal on your body, and you will help me take the lamp and seed back."
"Take them back where?" Ye Tianze asked.
"Up to you. As long as it is in the Divine Continent, or the continent where you live," the black-robed Spirit Race member said.
"You want me to take the lamp there and use it as the guide of darkness to invade that continent?" Ye Tianze asked.
"Yes," the black-robed Spirit Race member said.
"Aren't you afraid that I will throw it somewhere you can't find it?" Ye Tianze said.
