……

"Heh—aren't you a cultivator? Why are you still asking me this question? ”

The Elder's expression was still smiling, but his expression was obviously a little puzzled.

"I, actually- I don't know what to say, there's an energy in my body, I call it spiritual power, but ......"

Xiao Wu lowered his head, knowing for sure that this elder also had spiritual power. She had seen the aura on the elder's hand, and she had hidden her spiritual power from the beginning.

Although, she didn't understand where the elder's spiritual power came from, or as she said, it was obtained through cultivation. But she estimated that the source of spiritual power must be different from her own.

She was developed by that man to gain this power.

This seems to mean that there really is another way to obtain spiritual power in this world.

So Xiao Wu said: "However, I am different from you...... You're obviously doing spiritual practice, so ...... How do you do that? ”

"Huh? Do you mean that your spiritual power is not obtained through cultivation? ”

She shook her head in confusion and stared at Xiao Wu. Obviously, she didn't believe that there were people in this world who didn't use the spiritual power they had cultivated.

“…… We are actually some inhumane people, after all, we have been in the world for a long time. If your strength is not gained through cultivation, then what about this power...... I'm sorry, but there are some things I can't tell outsiders......"

The elder refused to speak.

Do the races hidden in the world rely on cultivation to gain Dao spiritual power? Both Joyna and Xiao Wu thought of one thing.

"So I want to ask the question, how many years have you been around?" When Xiao Wu heard this, he suddenly asked.

The elders seem to be hesitant about this question! He said: "The time of existence of our race, you may not believe it, maybe it is longer than the history recorded by human beings, how many years, I don't know ...... it."

Really.

"Then I want to ask, what is the name of your people? Is there a name? Xiao Wu asked again.

"No, but as far as I know, there were some tribes that used some names in the past."

"Oh? - What are those names? ”

The elder looked at Xiao Wu and became more and more hesitant, and under her step-by-step questioning, she seemed to feel something.

This little girl has something she doesn't know.

After a moment, the elder shook his head and said, "According to the oral tradition of our elders of the previous generation, there used to be scattered tribes of our people in this world. Those organizations that hide behind the torrent of history. For example, the Patrol Lodge, Freemasonry, Ispartine, etc...... Too much! ”

These names surprised Joyna and the others, and they had also heard of the names of some organizations, which were mysterious organizations that had a place in human history.

Several people were shocked, and their previous guesses and the information they knew from the "rock man" seemed to be confirmed one by one.

"It is said that our ancestors were originally from the same ethnic group."

Well?

Xiao Wu's heart was suddenly shocked, but he remained silent on the surface.

Her mind was racing.

"Then, do you know that Jidu is civilized?" Xiao Wu asked suddenly.

"What did you say?"

When the elder heard this, he suddenly raised his head and stared at Xiao Wu deadly.

Really! Xiao Wu also stared at the elder, as if he had expected her reaction.

It's been a long time since I've heard this name from outsiders, how did this little girl know?

It is a name buried in history—a name that has gone through tens of thousands of years of vicissitudes and has been forgotten by the world, even their descendants.

The Elder's face became gloomy, and with her appearance as a girl, it was difficult to maintain her composure after hearing the name.

Her hand trembled slightly, pointing at Xiao Wu.

"How do you know the word 'Jidu', you...... Who the hell is it!? ”

"Who the hell are you?"

The elder looked at them, and there was a gleam in his eyes!

Xiao Wu also looked at Joyna and Long Ping, and said silently: "I only recently learned about this name, I heard it from others, and maybe I don't know more than you." ”

The elder's fingers slowly lowered, and she sensed that something was out of shape.

Then she smiled indifferently and shook her head. Yes, how could such an alien little girl know better than she knew.

It was a huge question that lingered in the elder's mind as to who had told her.

"Is that so? …… Can you tell me, how do you know? The elder said indifferently, and she quickly reverted to that relaxed expression.

Xiao Wu let out a breath...... knew that she would ask this, and knew that her heart was also tangled at the moment.

However, she also had reason not to say that she was not sure what the elders had in mind.

"I can't say! Sorry ......"

“……”

The elder frowned slightly, and Ken was about to disappear in a flash. There was still no shame on her face - she had to know the answer.

"Ah, then, let me tell you a little bit about what I know. However, I want you to ...... Be sure to tell me where you heard that name, and in exchange, please come with me. ”

The elder slowly got up, his posture was graceful, his gait was light, and he was like a young man in his twenties, and he couldn't see any difference at all.

They also got up at the same time and followed behind.

A moment later, the elders, led by the elders, came to a secret room in the temple, which was a small room built under the temple, not deep.

As soon as he entered this secret room, Xiao Wu felt the existence of spiritual power, very weak spiritual power, not much stronger than those stone statues outside.

The inside is very clean, and at a glance you can tell that it is often maintained.

On the front of the chamber there is a stone slab inlaid in the wall that looks very old. The area is not large, and although many places have been sharpened by time to see the original picture clearly, the carving is exquisite. Framed by some kind of hard glass, the spiritual power is lingering and emanating from the stone slab.

What is it? There is also a reaction of spiritual power on the stone slab.

Xiao Wu used his divine sense to see a faint layer of spiritual power on it.

Well?

Several people were a little surprised, obviously not because they also felt the spiritual reaction, but they all saw that this secret room was built to store this stone slab.

"Honestly, everyone, look—this is what our clan salvaged from some ruin."

"Salvaged? In ruins? Joyna muttered.

"Yes, after the cataclysm, due to the drastic changes in the earth's crust, many of them were buried in ancient ruins and were exalted, which is where our civilization is inherited. Although we have known for a long time that there were these ancient beings......"

"Do you mean to say that your people have known about these ruins for a long time?"

"I can't say all, but there are a few well-preserved places that we know, but we won't dig them out."

"Why? You already knew about it, but you didn't dig it out? Xiao Wu asked.

"That's a secret of our people, which has been passed down for thousands of years, and since it is a secret, of course it is not known to the world, but do you know? Did some government in Europe send an army to find these ancient ruins in the Common Era? ”

"Oh! I have the impression that I have heard some rumors before, deep in the Himalayas, it is said that there is a hidden cave that can connect to the earth's axis, and that place seems to be called 'Shambala'. ”

Long Ping said thoughtfully.

That's right – the current Guge Mountains, hundreds of years ago, were indeed called the Himalayas. He had heard about it, but at the time, he had done some research in preparation for going there to investigate plants.

That's right, most people think it's a legend, but "Shambala" is real. It is an ancient ruin, named after our heritage, where our ancestors have guarded it for generations. Here! This slab was salvaged from there......"

The elder's hand pointed to the stone tablet. The purpose of showing them the tablet was to make them believe her words.

But the pattern above is too blurry.

"You must want to see what's up there, right? Look here, it will be clearer on it. ”

It was a piece of paper, and they had a rubbing of this slate. On a table in the corner next to it, the elder showed them the rubbings of the slate.

The rubbings are not very large, they are rectangular in shape, about 75 centimeters wide and 40 centimeters high.

And because it was broken into several pieces over time, it was rebuilt by later generations. There are some strange symbols around the picture, many of which remind Joyna of the mysterious symbols she saw in Daddy's palace.

However, these are clearly not the same thing.
