Chapter 497: Intricate
"Well, I'm going to tell you all these things today. Gu Gu saw that he couldn't hide it anymore, so he had to sigh softly, and continued: "Danchen, I believe you have also guessed that there is some relationship between our ancient clan and the Immortal Domain, and the relationship is not shallow. ”
Danchen nodded, motioning for Gu Yu to continue.
The Gu Gu continued: "Actually, this matter is not a secret at all among some absolute powerhouses or long-standing families in the Infinite Continent, our Gu Clan was simply separated from that Immortal Domain hundreds of millions of years ago. Hundreds of millions of years ago, the Immortal Domain descended on the Infinite Continent and carried out a bloody massacre on the Infinite Continent, with the goal of exterminating all living beings on the Infinite Continent. ”
"Why are they doing this?" Dan Chen's brows furrowed slightly, this was also something he had been unable to figure out, if the purpose of the beings in the Immortal Realm was only to invade the Immeasurable, then enslavement was obviously a more feasible method than extermination, because the latter could unite the cultivators of the Immeasurable Continent more, thus becoming more difficult to deal with.
"There's an ancient secret involved, and I can't say much about it right now. Gu Yu sighed lightly: "And I don't know much about this matter, in the future, when you are strong enough, you can ask the Ghost Venerable yourself." ”
"He knows better?"
"He is one of the few people in the Gu Clan who has experienced the previous era, how much do you say he knows?" Gu Gu looked at Danchen with a smile.
Dan Chenteng stood up from his chair in a flash, stared at Gu Gu and said in shock: "You mean, the age of the old man guarding the tomb ......?"
"He's lived far longer than you think. ”
"How is this possible!" Danchen looked at Gu Gu in disbelief: "In this world, even if it is a Saint Venerable, it is impossible to have a lifespan of more than hundreds of millions of years. ”
Gu Yu then retorted: "But we are from the Gu Clan! And the Ghost Venerable is still practicing the exercises of the Immortal Domain!Danchen, you have been in contact with the Venerable before, so you must be familiar with the aura on his body, right?"
"Danzong, this senior is right, the lifespan of the Ghost Venerable is indeed longer than anyone else, and their ancient clan did indeed belong to the Immortal Domain. Shen Yao'er stood up, bowed to Danchen and said, "Danzong, please forgive me for my unreasonableness just now, I really didn't expect that there would be such a relationship between you and the Gu clan. ”
"Alright, now that things are said and done, I'll go. Gu Gu saw the opportunity and wanted to leave.
However, Danchen finally caught such a good opportunity to find out the truth, where would Gu Gu be allowed to leave like this? Then he stopped: "Senior Gu Liao, Danchen still has something unclear. ”
"Just ask, but as I just said, I don't know much about what happened hundreds of millions of years ago, and even if you ask, I can't answer you. Now, I'm just giving you a chance to ask questions, take it. ”
Gu Yu's words were sonorous and powerful, and directly blocked Danchen Road.
It is indirectly telling Danchen that Danchen only has one chance to ask questions, and if Danchen continues to ask any sensitive questions, it will be tantamount to giving up this opportunity directly, because Gu Yu can completely answer with the words 'I don't understand'.
Although Danchen hated Gu Gu's condition in his heart, he was also very helpless, who let him ask for it?
In just a moment, Danchen filtered his doubts in his mind, and I have to say that the doubts in his heart are not enough to explain clearly, but Gu Gu only gave him a chance to ask questions, and he could only choose a question from which Gu Gu must not have a reason to shirk.
"Gu senior, I want to know what the connection between the Book of Ten Thousand Words and the Immortal Domain is?" Dan Chen stared at Gu Gu with burning eyes: "I think as a member of the Gu Clan, you can't know the answer to this question, right?"
Danchen didn't ask about the Great Wilderness Ancient Qi, but directly mentioned the Book of Ten Thousand Words, which directly avoided the possibility of Gu Gu being sloppy with himself.
"This ......"
Gu Yu hesitated for a moment, then glanced at the three corpses at Danchen's feet, and sighed, "I do know the answer to this question, so I'll tell you today." The book of 10,000 words is a holy relic of the Immortal Domain. ”
"So ......"
"You've finished asking one of your questions. Gu Yu waved his hand to stop Danchen from continuing: "Danchen, knowing too much now won't do you any good, and I've already said it, when you have enough strength, we will tell you all the truth, and now your strength is not enough to carry such a heavy thing." Hurry up and cultivate, the Immortal Domain is coming again, the Infinite Continent doesn't know how long it can last, you don't want to die too early. ”
"Senpai!"
Danchen wanted to stop the Gu Mot, but the figure of the Gu Gu Gu had already dissipated from the void, and there was no trace of it.
"Danchen, I think I can answer some of your questions. At this time, Shen Yao'er suddenly spoke, and she said apologetically: "Before that, I have to apologize to you again." ”
"I understand what you're doing, and if I were to meet the same thing, I'd react the same way. Danchen smiled bitterly: "Moreover, didn't you still choose to trust me in the end, didn't you?" ”
"Yes. Shen Yao'er bowed her head slightly, and said softly: "I also heard these things from the seniors in the clan, it is rumored that hundreds of millions of years ago, the sentient beings of the Infinite Continent have almost been forced to a desperate situation, and the death of more than fifty Venerable-level powerhouses has made the immeasurable beings almost desperate, and at the most critical time, the only ten or so remaining Venerable-level powerhouses in the Infinite Continent were also besieged by the united Immortal Domain Saints.
Once these more than ten Venerables died, the last hope of the Infinite Continent would also be shattered, and at that time, the immeasurable beings could not find a way to help those Venerables get out of trouble, and the immeasurable beings were already desperate for their fate, but at this time, there was a conflict between the saints of the Immortal Domain who were in the limelight, and even a great war broke out inside!
The most direct consequence of this matter is that the saints of the Immortal Domain have fallen one after another due to internal strife, and the surviving Venerables of our Immeasurable Continent have also taken this opportunity to get out of trouble one after another......"
Shen Yao'er paused slightly, and sighed: "If it weren't for the infighting of the Immortals of the Immortal Domain at the last moment, the Infinite Continent would have been destroyed hundreds of millions of years ago, and there would be no you and me today." ”
Danchen and Yan Lianqiu glanced at each other and asked in unison, "What happened after that, and what exactly is the reason for the infighting among the saints of the Immortal Domain?"
From Shen Yao'er's account, Danchen could already tell how dangerous the Infinite Continent was hundreds of millions of years ago! There is a saying that she is right, if there were no later changes, the Infinite Continent might have been wiped out!
Shen Yao'er shook her head and sighed: "I don't know what caused the infighting between the saints, and the elders of our clan just said that after that incident, the beings of the Immortal Domain fell into a long-term infighting, and they had no time to estimate the immeasurable sentient beings. And it was with this opportunity that we immeasurable beings were given time to breathe, until later, a holy deity in the Immortal Realm approached our Venerable of the Immeasurable Continent and asked to unite against the enemy...... These people are the current Gu clan!
Later, things were much simpler, and when the elders of the clan mentioned these, they only mentioned them in passing, the remaining monks of our Infinite Continent after the Great War formed an alliance with the ancient clan and repelled the Immortal Domain, and then after hundreds of millions of years of reproduction, the Infinite Continent had today's prosperity. ”
Danchen quietly listened to Shen Yao'er finish speaking, and asked in a low voice, "Then Miss Shen, have the elders of your clan ever mentioned the Great Wilderness Ancient Characters?"
"It just seems that the ancient people have been looking for and are committed to destroying something. Shen Yao'er said: "The elders of our clan once guessed that the split of the saints of the Immortal Domain back then should be related to the ancient characters of the Great Wilderness. Because after the Infinite Continent successfully drove away the beings of the Immortal Domain, the Ancient Clan had been silently searching for these things. However, the specific details of the Gu clan never said to the native monks of the Infinite Continent, and I heard that this was a secret that belonged to the Gu clan itself. ”
Danchen suddenly felt that his head was big for a while, and he roughly sorted out the connection between the ancient clan and the Immortal Domain, as well as the Great Wilderness Ancient Characters and the Ten Thousand Words Book, but in addition, he thought of a place related to the Great Wilderness Ancient Characters. I couldn't help but scratch my head and asked, "What about the Seven Holy Clans, and what is their origin? Could they not be separated from the Ancient Clan?"
When Danchen asked this question, he already had a clear clue in his mind, and he had placed the Immortal Domain, the Ancient Clan, and the Seven Holy Clans in a straight line in his mind.
The Immortal Realm monks called the Ancient Clan traitors, probably because of the internal strife that affected countless beings hundreds of millions of years ago. So......
Danchen stared at the Ancient Clan and the Seven Holy Clans in his mind, and gently connected a line between the two.
The same as the Immortal Domain's title for the Ancient Clan, the people of the Ancient Clan also used the word 'traitor' to refer to the Seven Holy Clans! Danchen still can't forget how angry the white-haired giant ape was when he mentioned the Seven Holy Clans.
So does it mean that the Seven Holy Venerables originally belonged to the Gu Clan, but because of some unknown things, the Seven Holy Clans betrayed the Gu Clan, or did they betray the Gu Clan and the Immortal Domain at the same time? Billions of years ago, the beings of the Immortal Realm were actually not divided into two parts, but three parts?
This was the most reasonable possibility that Danchen could think of, and it was also the most inferential that could explain the relationship between the Immortal Domain, the Ancient Clan, and the Seven Holy Clans.
But Shen Yao'er's next short sentence directly overturned all of Danchen's inferences.
"Danzong, you're wrong, there is no relationship between the Seven Holy Clans and the Gu Clan. They have the blood of our immeasurable continent in their veins. Shen Yao'er said in an extremely serious tone: "The elders of the clan once said that although the Seven Holy Clans are beyond the world, they are more trustworthy to the Infinite Continent than the Ancient Clan. ”
"Humph!"
