Then, Lu An told him everything he knew about the situation of the continent in the past ten thousand years, including the names of the big clans that the stone man wanted to know about. Although Lu An did not know which big clans the stone man was talking about, Lu An told him everything he knew about the Sengoku, Yan Xing Clan, Mystic God Clan, and Hachiko clan. Apart from his own matters, he did not hide anything else.
The stone man had been quietly listening the entire time, not opening his mouth or interrupting him even once. When Lu An was done, the stone man took a deep breath. The aura he exuded was extremely heavy.
"As expected …" the stone man said seriously.
Lu An was shocked. He did not know what the stone man was talking about, but based on his previous experience, even if he asked, it would be a waste of time. The stone man would not answer at all, so he might as well not ask.
However, the stone man knew that Lu An was hiding something. He looked at Lu An and said, "He would not choose the Hachiko clan. He must have his reasons for choosing you. I'm his friend, and I'm someone you can trust. Other than your eyes, I can see through all the powers in your body. I know them better than you by countless times. You don't have to hide anything from me. "
Lu An's heart tightened when he heard this, but he did not speak. He was still hesitating. He had no choice. Even if the stone man was trustworthy, he would not trust anyone easily.
Seeing this, the stone man continued, "Deep Ice, Nine Heavens Sacred Fire, Immortal Qi, Power of Death, Imperial Dragon Bone … I even know what the golden thread on your chest is. Do you still need me to prove it?"
"…"
Lu An frowned. After hesitating for two seconds, he finally said, "I am an enemy of the Kang Clan."
Then, Lu An revealed his background. When the stone man knew that Lu An had been chased by the Kang Clan's young master and fell into the ancient river, he immediately understood why his old friend had chosen this person. However, when the stone man heard that Lu An was actually the husband of the Fu Clan's young master and the son-in-law of the entire Fu Clan, he was stunned!
This was something that he had never expected!
"There's such a thing?!" The stone man looked at Lu An in shock and said, "You're really something! With such a lousy background, you still managed to hook up with the Young Master of the Fu Clan. Your luck with women is really enviable! "
"..." Lu An scratched his head awkwardly. He thought for a while and said, "Because of me, she has been locked in the Spirit Awakening Pass for nine months and eleven days. I can only save her if I become a Level Nine Heavenly Master."
"So your purpose in coming to me is to seek power?" The stone person came to a realization and said, "No wonder you were in such a hurry to go even when your life was in danger. Looks like you're quite the romantic."
Lu An smiled bitterly, but he would rather endure greater danger than let Fu Yu suffer. Moreover, he knew that Fu Yu must be in far more pain than him.
"That's all you know?" Suddenly, the stone man asked again.
Lu An was stunned. He looked at the stone man with astonishment and then nodded seriously. This time, he really told the stone man everything he knew, especially the information about the various large clans. After ensuring that he did not miss anything, he nodded and said, "Yes."
"In other words, you only know three of the four clans before the Eighth Ancient Era?" The stone man asked again.
"Yes." Lu An said again, "I only know three."
"..."
The stone man did not ask any more questions, but from his attitude, one could see that he was very disappointed. It was obvious that this stone man cared a lot about the fourth clan. Could it be that this stone man was a member of the fourth clan?
Although the stone man was disappointed, it did not last for long. He took a deep breath and looked at Lu An again, saying, "Actually, I fought with you just now because I made a bet with your master."
"Bet?" Lu An was startled and asked, "What bet?"
"He once said that he would not accept disciples." The stone man said, "But no one expected that those things would happen back then. I am not surprised that he accepted you as a disciple. I have many disciples. One day, when the two of us were chatting, he said that if he really accepted a disciple one day, he would definitely win against my disciple in actual combat at the same cultivation level. I admit that I am not as strong as him, so I fought with you to see how his disciple's actual combat ability is. In the first half, I imitated his combat style to fight with you. However, after imitating for tens of thousands of years, I still could not imitate the essence. It is a pity. "
When Lu An heard this, he looked at the other party in shock. He did not expect that his master would only have such a conversation with this person.
"His vision is indeed very high." The stone man said emotionally, "As expected of him. I am afraid that only he can teach a disciple with such actual combat ability. Moreover, your combat style is very different from his. There is almost no shadow of his combat style. Too many disciples have been following their Master's path for their entire lives, but they don't know that everyone is different, and everyone's path is different. To be able to find your own direction in your Master's path and walk a new path is the most difficult thing. "
Listening to the stone man's evaluation, being recognized was something to be happy about. However, Lu An did not feel happy at all. Ever since he started cultivating, he had heard a lot of praises. However, in his opinion, praising one's talent was useless. Being recognized by one's strength was what was truly valuable. In particular, Lu An had always wanted to stand in front of Fu Yu and protect her. However, his strength was now completely different from Fu Yu's. Fu Yu was two years younger than him. He had no right to be proud.
"Relax a little." The stone man looked at Lu An and patted Lu An's shoulder. "Your path is still very long. The things that your master wants you to do have not started yet. If you are already under so much pressure now, how will you withstand the pressure in the future? "
Lu An took a light breath and nodded slightly.
"You should rest first and adjust your state." The stone man got up and said, "According to your current state, you will need to rest for at least two hours to fully recover your Divine Sense to its peak state. After two hours, I will start to help you cultivate. You should prepare as soon as possible. Once the cultivation starts, it will not stop until you successfully break through. "
Until he breaks through?
Hearing the word 'break through', Lu An's heart immediately became excited! This was what he desired the most. He immediately nodded and said, "Yes, senior!"
Following that, Lu An immediately closed his eyes and concentrated on recovering his strength. The stone man looked at Lu An's state and nodded slightly. He then turned and walked away.
In the distance, there was an endless darkness. Under the red light, the stone man walked step by step. During the process, he raised his head and looked at the scorching nine suns above him. There was a trace of nostalgia in his eyes.
However, his pace did not stop. Instead, his speed became faster and faster. Soon, the stone man's figure exceeded the limit of the red light's illumination and disappeared from this bright space.
Although Lu An closed his eyes, he knew that the stone man had left. The stone man could see beyond the light's line of sight. It also exceeded Lu An's perception range. However, Lu An did not care. He felt that the stone man just wanted to move his body. He could not possibly sit with him for two hours. However, after two hours, the stone man still did not appear.
Lu An opened his eyes and looked around. He found that there was no sign of the stone man at all. However, it was still early. He did not want to delay his recovery of Divine Sense. He closed his eyes again and quickly rested.
However, after another two hours, his Divine Sense had completely rested and adjusted. When he opened his eyes, there was still no sign of the stone man in front of him. He immediately looked around and found that the stone man was not there.
Where did he go?
Lu An suddenly panicked. Could it be that the stone man did not appear? Everything just now was a lie?
No, even if the stone man deliberately showed goodwill to obtain information, he should have killed him after it was over. This was as easy as flipping his hand for the stone man. There was no need to keep him here.
Where did the stone man go? Could it be that he went to prepare something to help him with his cultivation?
Lu An looked around at the darkness at the end of the red light. He did not know what to do. Should he wait here quietly, or should he leave and enter the darkness to search for the stone man?
After some quick thinking, Lu An decided to sit here and wait for a while. After all, this was someone else's territory. It was impolite to walk around. More importantly, it was not time yet. If the stone man did not appear after an hour, it would not be too late for him to get up and enter the darkness to search!
Taking a deep breath, Lu An made himself sit steadily on the chair, quietly waiting for the stone man's return.
The next moment …
Thirty minutes …
Thirty minutes …
An hour.
Lu An frowned. In front of him, where the light shone, it was empty except for him. Where was the stone man's figure?
Lu An's heart tightened. He immediately got up and prepared to head in the direction the stone man left to try and find him. The stone man should have kept his word. Why did he not appear when the time was up?
However …
The moment Lu An got up, everything changed!
The entire space turned from light to darkness in an instant!
