Chapter 11: The Price of Strength

If someone asks me why organisms evolve, I tell them that it's because of external environmental stimuli. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

But with the development of science and technology, we humans have completely gained a firm foothold on the earth. If nothing else, at least human society can provide us with a stable and relatively safe environment.

This is a boon for humans, but it is an extremely dangerous sign for a species - a decrease in external stimuli, an overemphasis on brain development and intelligence, and a large population base due to overproduction...... All of them hinder the evolution and development of human genes to some extent.

"Based on my observations over the years, humans can already be considered a higher genetic creature. But this high level is limited to your brains! That's right, if you put aside the level of your brain development and talk about the rationality of your body structure, you are not even inferior creatures. ”

Eric Wind bluntly stated his opinion of the earthlings, and in his eyes, the level of human physical development was still at the level of "primitive creatures".

This point is fatal!

"So you have to evolve, the Xuan Empire doesn't need weak inheritors, since you have been brought here, it means that there is still a trace of "dragon blood" handed down from five thousand years ago in your body, you are the descendant of the original batch of people who accepted my inheritance, and you are also the most suitable candidate to accept the inheritance. ”

"Initially...... Which batch? ”

Hearing Eric's words, especially the phrase "dragon's blood", I already vaguely guessed something.

"My ancestors...... Do you know? ”

"Of course I know the ancestors of the Lin family."

Unceremoniously saw through what I was thinking, and Eric's style gave me a lot of ancient secrets.

"It is nothing new for human beings to face the invasion of extraterrestrial genes, at least 5,000 years ago, a similar incident occurred, and it was not a small fight like an extraterrestrial meteorite descending on the earth, that was a real alien biological invasion."

"I feel like I've heard some great historical news again......" I couldn't help but complain secretly.

"About 5,300 Earth years ago, your ancestors were still in the age of tribalism......"

"Stop, stop, stop popularizing history, you said that your task is to give me the history of the Xuan people, but I can turn the book on the history of our country, so I won't bother you."

I hurriedly rejected Eric's attempt to continue to tell me about Chinese history, please, I just started to get dizzy after listening to the ancient history of your Xuan Empire, and now you are starting to give me science about the ancient history of China...... You're trying to drive me crazy, scumbag!

"It's hard to learn."

The study saw through what I was thinking in my heart, and Eric Feng lost no time in complaining to me, this peak of artificial intelligence has completely figured out the way of earthlings after living on the earth for seven thousand years, and we juniors have no privacy in front of this thousand-year-old monster.

"Again, it's a matter of how I'm going to accept that legacy."

For this popular science maniac who has been talking nonsense for a long time and hasn't talked to the point, I had to ask me directly what I should do.

Since I'm here to receive the inheritance, someone should hand me a crystal ball and let me put my hand on it to test my magic...... Wait, since it's from the inheritance of interstellar civilization, then it's definitely indispensable to send equipment! After all, no matter how the other party looks at it, it is a super interstellar civilization, and there must be a lot of high-tech equipment.

"Don't worry, since you have accepted the inheritance, then the Xuan Empire will not treat you badly. But don't you always say that power comes at a price? I want to hear first what you can pay. ”

"The price? I didn't have any money with me, I only had my phone but there was no signal here......"

"What do I want to do with the waste paper that humans print in bulk?"

I was quite speechless about equating money with price without saying a word.

"For example, the previous generation of your human race, the Saint Chengjun He, was willing to burn his potential in order to gain power, and even overdrew his life ahead of schedule."

"So what are you willing to exchange for?"

"I ......"

For a moment, I was speechless.

Exchange? Why does it sound so familiar? Sure enough, is this the plot of the supporting character in the novel who signs a contract with the demon?!

And the burning life, what the hell can you get power by consuming potential? Is this the setting in that Xianxia novel?

That's right, I doubt in my eyes, this is not common sense!

At this moment, I suddenly remembered what Junyihe had just said, the conversation we had in the car.

"I am the ninety-eighth generation of the Holy Emperor Alliance, and the power I possess is also one of the best among all the Holy Inheritances. But in contrast, I am afraid that I am the shortest lifespan among the Saint Emperor Alliance's previous Saint Inheritances. So Lin Yuchuan, you have to remember that the Divine Inheritance is not a gift but a demonic transaction. To gain power, you need to pay the same price. ”

Thinking back to what Junyihe said, I really understood what he wanted to express at this time, or that it was a warning from my predecessors.

"Can I say no?"

Thinking of this, I suddenly thought that it would be better to simply reject this inheritance, after all, in my opinion, this power that was almost a trade with a demon in exchange was meaningless, and would even lead me to the abyss.

"You can't refuse, I think Junyi and should have told you, as soon as you step into the Star Palace Gate, the inheritance will begin."
