Chapter 270: The Secret in the Dust

"Let's go!" came the voice of Xingchen from the empty sacrificial hall, and Xingtu came to his senses and followed Xingchen inside.

The secret room is not big, but there is no cave.

But seeing countless stars of light spilling down from the top of the secret room, the star map looked up, and couldn't help but be stunned, the main body of the star was like a star in the dark night, and the star map felt as if he was under another starry sky.

It turned out that the glowing subject was actually a crystal embedded in the roof of the secret chamber, and a rough estimate was that there were at least hundreds or even thousands.

There are countless god cards in front of the secret room, and the god cards are not real, but they can vaguely distinguish the font on them.

These god cards are at the mercy of an arc, and the top and bottom are scattered like terraces, and Xingchen can't help but stiffen when he sees the name on the first tablet.

"Star Chill"

The name was not obvious, but there was a magic that caught his eye tightly, and he was all too familiar with the name.

Because Xing Han is their former patriarch, the father of the three great masters of Xingchen, Xingyu and Xing Map.

"How could Father?" Xingtu trembled and quickly knelt on the futon in front of him.

He clearly remembered that his father Xing Han had said that he had gone to another realm, and as for what that realm was called, he couldn't remember the name because his memory was so long.

But what's going on with the magic card in front of him, is my father actually dead?

Xingtu looked at the stars with incredible eyes, trying to discern the reason in his face.

But unfortunately, Xingchen's face was joyless and carefree, as if everything in the world was nothing in his eyes, and he had already looked down on it.

"Third brother, you read that right, this is indeed my father's divine position, the so-called Great Thousand World is the Central Realm, he has indeed gone, but he is just looking for the destination of his life there. ”

"Not only that, the patriarchs of the Xing family have been the same for thousands of years, they have all said that they have gone to the Great Thousand Worlds for thousands of years, but the truth is that none of them have returned!"

"It's a fate, a fate that borders on a curse!"

"It's like a wanderer who is far away and always has to return to his hometown at the end of his life!"

"You're saying they're dead?" Star Atlas couldn't believe the fact.

"Who in the world does not die, even if they live for endless years, in the end they are just a piece of loess!" Xingchen took a few steps forward after speaking, and picked up the box placed in the center of the god card.

The box is dark cyan with a slight texture, and it is difficult to tell whether it is made of stone or wood.

The moment Xingchen opened the box, a blue-white light suddenly shot out from the box, and the entire stone room was like day.

The star-like crystals in the stone chamber were eclipsed at this time.

After a few moments, the light dimmed, and the stone chamber returned to its previous state.

The contents of the box appeared in front of the star map, a fragmented piece of jade with triangles.

"Holy relic!" exclaimed Star Map.

Xingchen took out the jade from the box, looked at the star map in front of him and said.

"Third brother, you get up first!"

Xingtu nodded, and only then did he see his father's and the god cards of the patriarchs of the past generations, I don't know if it was an instinctive reaction or the coercion of the god cards, which made him kneel down involuntarily.

"Do you know why our Star Family has been stationed here for generations to protect the Zhou River!"

Xingtu shook his head, he only knew that the clan motto was like this, as for the reason, he had never asked too much, after all, this matter was a secret that only the patriarch had the right to know.

"A long, long time ago, about a thousand years ago, our first generation ancestors strayed into a dangerous forbidden place when they traveled to the Central Realm, and almost lost their lives there.

In order to repay the master, the ancestor swore to follow the master, but the master said no, just a gesture. How could the ancestors give up and threaten to follow the master, otherwise their lives would rather not be saved. ”

The master naturally couldn't resist his ancestors, so he said: You have to think well, even if you do anything, you have to repay me. The ancestor nodded firmly.

The master sighed helplessly and said: "Okay, in that case, you can protect a place for me."

So the master said this to the ancestors, and taught a set of star images to the ancestors, the ancestor was originally a wandering orphan, nameless and surnameless, the master named the ancestor the star, the ancestor focused on the doctrine taught by the master, and guarded this place for endless years. ”

"When the master departed, he said: When Sirius turns red in the sky, the continent will appear, and then your guardianship will be over, of course, you can also leave halfway, no longer care about my words, but when you leave, bury this jade, and wait for the next destined person.

After the master finished speaking, he disappeared from the ancestor's eyes, as if the air had evaporated!"

"That jade is my clan's holy relic?" Xingtu asked.

"Yes, the ancestor was a trustworthy man who did what he said. He came here with the five-pointed jade, and took root here, set up a series of family mottos, and made a prominent reputation here, but when it came to you and me, he was reduced to being known as a thief in Mobei, which is not a kind of sadness. Xingchen let out another long sigh.

It was the first time Xingchen had heard of this secret, and the deeds of the first generation of ancestors were indeed recorded in the ancient books of the clan, but they did not tell the origin of Xingchen's oral complaint, especially the magical continent.

"What is the Central Realm?" the star map was puzzled.

"That's another continent, that big road is vast, I don't know how many times bigger than our continent, there are thousands of races, monsters are rampant, opportunities and dangers coexist, I was fortunate to go there once, with a group of life and death brothers, those years were really happy!"

"And then?" the Star Atlas began to take an interest in the Central Realm.

"Later!" Xingchen paused, with a desolate look on his face, "Later, we were young and vigorous, and we caused trouble everywhere, and finally got into trouble with a local sect, although that sect was not ranked in the Central Realm, but it was more than wrong to deal with us, and all the brothers died tragically, only me and another person escaped back, and I have never set foot in that realm since then, until now." ”

Speaking of which, the stars have already burst into tears.

There is still some impression of this matter Xing Map, when he and his second brother Xingyu were still young, Xingchen, as the boss, is also disdainful of the so-called ethereal Zhou River of the family like Xingyu now.

He thought that it was pedantic for the clansmen of the family to protect the invisible and untouchable Zhou River for generations, so he ran away despite the obstruction of his family.

It wasn't until many years later that another person returned here with the dying Xingchen, when the young Xingtu could be described as crying pear blossoms with rain, thinking that the eldest brother who had always loved him was going to be unconscious, not only he thought so, but almost all the clansmen thought that Xingchen would definitely die.

However, his grandfather, that is, the patriarch of the previous generation, Xing Han, did not give up, and disappeared with Xingchen for a month, no one knew where he went, and a month later, Xing Han came back with Xingchen. Not only did Xingchen's injuries heal completely, but his cultivation had also increased by one level.

Another change is that Xingchen is no longer as unruly as before, but has become humble and honest, and earnestly follows Xinghan to learn skills, until he becomes the patriarch of the Xing family, and he is deeply respected and loved by the clan during his tenure as patriarch.

No one knows where he went in the month when he disappeared with Hoshihan.

"Do you want to know where my father took me and how he resurrected me? ”

Xingtu nodded.

After listening to Xingchen's words, Xingtu stumbled and almost fell, his face full of horror.

"Zhouhe, we went to Zhouhe!" Xingchen's voice echoed in his mind for a long time.
