In the dark world, a pair of turbid eyes opened. Compared to the surrounding blood-red eyes, this pair of eyes was extremely small. It was no different from the eyes of a normal human, except that it seemed to have experienced the vicissitudes of life.
"Who are you?"
Jiang Xiaofan asked.
Although this world was very dark, it did not affect him at all.
"Someone who is about to die."
The old voice said.
The surrounding darkness dispersed, revealing a skinny old man.
"About to die? I don't think so. "
Jiang Xiaofan said.
Although the old man's body was very withered and looked like he would step into a coffin at any time, he had the Rinnegan and could clearly see that the old man's vitality was still very strong. It would not be a problem for him to live for more than ten thousand years.
The old man chuckled, "Just kidding."
"It's not funny."
Jiang Xiaofan said.
He could clearly see that the old man's true body was also a dark beast, not a real human.
"Is that so? I thought it would be funny." The old man shook his head. Then, his expression suddenly became a little serious. He looked at Jiang Xiaofan and said, "Human, this old man wants to make a deal with you."
"A deal?"
Jiang Xiaofan was puzzled.
The old man nodded. He stretched out his right hand and a ring of light appeared in his palm.
Jiang Xiaofan's eyes suddenly narrowed. Previously in the 82nd Divine City, he had sensed the mysterious light under the black hole. In other words, he had rushed into the black hole for this thing.
"You want this, right?"
The old man said.
Jiang Xiaofan looked at the old man and was silent for a moment. Then, he said, "What is the deal?"
A straightforward person did not beat around the bush. This thing, he really wanted.
The old man nodded and said, "On this ancient road, there are a total of eighteen dark sealed places. Our clan is sealed in these eighteen places. This old man will give you this ball of light, you help my clan to break these seals."
"Impossible."
Jiang Xiaofan directly refused.
In the 82nd Divine City, he had already witnessed the terror of those dark beasts. All of them were at the level of Dao Grandmasters. They were way too terrifying. If such a beast race were to appear, it would be extremely dangerous.
Although he wanted this ball of light, there was no need for him to bring a calamity to this ancient path.
"You think our clan is a calamity?"
The old man said.
Jiang Xiaofan frowned. This old man seemed to have seen through his thoughts.
"To be honest, it's true that I've seen information about you sealed in someone's Sea of Consciousness. Furthermore, I've also seen that your clansmen who left this place killed everyone they saw."
He said.
All around, pairs of huge blood-red eyes stared fixedly at Jiang Xiaofan, filled with murderous intent.
However, because little Bai Ze was lying on top of his head, these ferocious beasts did not dare to approach.
The old man stared at Jiang Xiaofan. After a long silence, he said, "The winner has the right to fabricate the truth. Do you know that?"
Jiang Xiaofan frowned.
"What do you mean?"
He looked at the old man and vaguely understood what the other party meant.
The old man looked around and sighed deeply.
"Back then, this Heaven Region was the territory of my Dark Beast Clan. I'm not boasting, but my clan was indeed very powerful. There were countless Dao Realm experts in the clan." The old man looked at Jiang Xiaofan, as if he was telling the story to Jiang Xiaofan, but at the same time, he seemed to be reminiscing, "One day, three humans barged into this Heaven Realm. They demanded that our clan submit to them and hand over our clan's secret treasures. Our clan refused, and in exchange, they were slaughtered and suppressed."
"My clan was cruel? Violent? At that time, my clan was the guardian clan of this Heaven Region. Perhaps you're thinking about what happened just now, but human, I want to ask you. If you were sealed by a certain clan for countless years for no reason, and after you came out, you happened to meet someone from this clan, would you be able to resist the urge to kill? "
The old man stared at Jiang Xiaofan.
Jiang Xiaofan frowned. "If what you said is true, I would indeed be unable to resist."
"If, you're still doubting."
The old man said.
"Of course, I have no reason to believe the words of a stranger."
Jiang Xiaofan said frankly.
The old man was silent. After a while, he looked at little Bai Ze.
His muddy old eyes were filled with incomparable respect.
"We're beasts, and you have the supreme emperor of the beast clan beside you." The old man bowed to little Bai Ze and said, "If it's the emperor, he can clearly feel whether our words are true or not and can make the most accurate judgment. None of our thoughts can escape the emperor's perception."
Jiang Xiaofan frowned. There was such a thing?
He looked up at the little fellow above his head. "You can tell whether their words are true or not?"
The little fellow called out happily and looked full of confidence.
"Then, what he said just now, is it true or false?"
He pointed at the old man in front of him.
"Ah!"
The little fellow nodded and gave an affirmative answer.
Jiang Xiaofan muttered to himself. Little Bai Ze had given a positive answer twice, which meant that the old man's words were true and not a lie.
Xiao Chen thought for a while, and a thought occurred to him.
"You said that there were three people back then?"
Xiao Chen asked.
"Yes."
The old man nodded.
A cold light flashed in Jiang Xiaofan's eyes. If there were three people, were they the three founders of the Deity Dao Union?
"They are plotting something," the old man said.
The old man said.
Jiang Xiaofan looked at the old man and asked, "What do you know?"
"If you agree to the deal, I can tell you."
The old man said.
Jiang Xiaofan stared at the old man. "I'm a human. Do you trust me that much?"
"I don't trust you, but I trust the emperor. The character of the person that the supreme emperor recognizes will definitely not be wrong. "
The old man said honestly.
Jiang Xiaofan nodded. He could agree with the old man's words.
"One last thing. After your clan breaks the seal, can you control yourselves? If it's like earlier, slaughtering as you wish after you go out, I cannot agree. "
Jiang Xiaofan said.
"Don't worry. I will give you the token of the Dark Beast Clan's Clan Leader. They will listen to you. We have been trapped in the darkness for a long time, constantly being forced to submit by the enemy. We have had enough of such days. After we go out, we will only seek revenge. "
The old man said.
Jiang Xiaofan remained silent for a long time. Eventually, he nodded. "Alright, I agree."
Revenge.
The target: the Deity Dao Union.
This was something that Xiao Chen was very happy to see.
"Many thanks!"
The old man said sincerely.
After receiving Jiang Xiaofan's affirmation, the old man revealed a pleasantly surprised expression. Around them, the pairs of blood-red eyes also became somewhat excited. They had been listening to the conversation between the two of them, so naturally, they could understand their conversation.
"In that case, tell me what you know first."
Jiang Xiaofan asked.
This old man should be very familiar with the Ancient Road Heaven Domain and should know a lot about the Deity Dao Union.
The old man nodded and closed his eyes slightly. After a while, he opened them again.
"Those three people are plotting something big. They want to become gods."
The old man said.
Jiang Xiaofan was startled, his expression changing.
"Become gods?!"
Become gods? What did that mean?
The old man sighed and said, "After the Dao God Realm, they break through again and become gods."
"This …"
Jiang Xiaofan was shocked.
After the Dao God Realm, they break through again and become gods. Gods?
"Back then, those three people came to the Heaven Domain of my clan for the secret treasure of my clan, the Eternal Crystal. I don't know where they got the news from, but they believe that the Eternal Crystal is a way to become a god. "
The old man said.
"Eternal Crystal?"
Jiang Xiaofan was puzzled.
The old man stretched out his right hand, and a ring of light flickered. "This is it."
"This … is the secret treasure of your clan?"
Jiang Xiaofan was shocked.
The thing that resonated with him was actually the secret treasure of the other party's clan.
"Yes."
The old man nodded.
"My clan is indeed very strong, but our lifespan is very limited. Regardless of whether we are strong or not, the longest lifespan will not exceed one million years. In this long history, our clan has given birth to one king after another. Their peak cultivation was at the peak of the Dao God Realm, but they could not escape the fate of their lifespan drying up. In the end, they all died. "
"After the king dies, there will naturally be a burial ground. In the endless years, the dead kings were buried in the same graveyard by our clan. Over time, this ring of light condensed in the graveyard. It went from the initial dim to strong, filled with the aura of hope. Our clan named it the Eternal Crystal, hoping to obtain eternal life, just like you humans. After reaching a certain level of cultivation, under normal circumstances, you will never die."
"After the Eternal Crystal was born, time continued to pass. After that, our clan was still the same as before. Every million years, a new king would be born, and their cultivation would all be at the Dao God Realm. Unfortunately, death was unavoidable, and this Eternal Crystal grew stronger and stronger in the graveyard. Although it was bright, it was useless."
"The eternity that our clan yearned for was just a bubble. Our clansmen had comprehended this Eternal Crystal for countless years. Whether it was to get close to it to comprehend it or to refine it directly, they did not obtain the slightest effect. Our clan could not comprehend it, nor could we refine it. In the end, it brought disaster to our clan. "
The old man sighed.
His words were filled with loneliness and self-mockery.
Jiang Xiaofan looked at the ring of light in the old man's hand and was really shocked.
Not to mention what this ring of light was, he was shocked by the strength of this clan. A Dao God expert was born every million years? Heavens, in such a long time, how many Dao Gods had this clan produced?!
This was simply the strongest clan in the world!
If it were not for the limited lifespan, this clan could have ruled the three thousand great worlds.
"Now, it belongs to you."
The old man handed the ring of light to Jiang Xiaofan.
"This …"
Jiang Xiaofan was a little hesitant.
It did not seem good for him to take away the inherited secret treasure of another clan like this.
"Don't mind it." As if seeing what he was thinking, the old man shook his head and said, "Although this thing is a symbol of our clan, this symbol is really useless. Now, if losing it can allow our clan to regain freedom, then at least it has some symbolic meaning. "
"Most importantly, with the Supreme Emperor by your side, you are different from other humans. If it's you, you will definitely not disgrace it." He looked at Jiang Xiaofan, and his eyes became a little deep. He said seriously, "Moreover, I have a feeling that you might be able to make it shine!"
