A powerful force gradually spread out on the old man in front of him.

Everything around is distorted, as if it is affected by the breath of the old man, and it is unconsciously excluded.

There is a feeling of twilight in the old man, but it would be a big mistake to think that such an old man is an old man who is about to step into the coffin.

Although it was twilight, the years seemed to be avoided in the old man, and he didn't dare to leave the slightest trace at all.

Although he looks the same as the old man, Zhou An thinks that the old man in front of him is not old.

The old man looked at Zhou An, the approval in his eyes became stronger and stronger, and he showed a very appreciative smile: "How did you see through this situation?" ”

Zhou An pointed around and said slowly: "I think that no matter how perverted a person is, he will not do such a blatant thing. ”

The words are not rough.

If Zhou An is replaced, even if he has some kind of perverted thoughts, he will not choose his plan in front of others, and even give others the so-called choice.

This is even more impossible.

All this came too abruptly, especially the scene of jumping his face just now, and the feeling that Zhen Tianzun gave him was too abrupt.

Quietly bury the coffin, let Zhou An assimilate with the coffin, and yin himself, wouldn't it be simpler and more convenient, and don't you have to worry about accidents?

So this is Zhou An's biggest doubt.

The old man suddenly realized: "It's really too anxious, time is limited, you are about to leave again, I have to find a way to keep you, and by the way, see how your talent is." ”

Zhou An remained silent and did not answer the question.

After a slight pause, the old man asked again, "How can you be sure that I am not an old man?" ”

Zhou An didn't answer, but asked: "I don't know how many of those illusions that my predecessors showed me, how true and how false?" ”

The old man thought for a moment and said, "Basically, except for my identity, my identity is not in an illusion. ”

Zhou An understood, and then said: "Then I can conclude that the predecessors are not old, in the illusion, the old man is dead, sleeping with history, and resting with the years, but after death, his bones are made of reliefs, and the tombstone is engraved." ”

"And when I came to this space before, what I saw was a skeleton, and the stone slab in front of the skeleton was only half carved, and the skeleton made me fall into an illusion, then this skeleton must be someone other than old age."

"So I concluded that the predecessor was the skeleton, or rather the skeleton."

Speaking of which, Zhou An won't continue, but the meaning is self-evident.

As Zhou An spoke, the smile on the old man's face became more and more, and the appreciation in his eyes became more and more vigorous.

After Zhou An finished speaking, the old man asked.

"In today's world, are the young people of today as shrewd and capable as you?"

Zhou An thought for a while, and then said in an affirmative tone: "I don't know, when I beat them, I couldn't feel it." ”

When this sentence was finished, even the old man, a living epic, couldn't help but stiffen his face.

He always felt that Zhou An's answer had exceeded his expectations.

"Senior, back to the topic, I want to know, what is your identity?" Zhou An continued to ask.

The old man did not answer, shook his head, and then said in a very annoying tone, "Guess. ”

The corners of Zhou An's mouth twitched slightly.

He saw that the old man really didn't seem to want to answer, and he really guessed.

Then, Zhou An touched his chin with his hand and walked back and forth.

After thinking for a moment, he suddenly thought of something, and turned his head sharply to look at the clothes on the old man's body.

is still dressed in white, just like the bones before, but the details on this white dress are more obvious than before.

On the neckline and cuffs of the white clothes, there are thin lines of light gold, tattooed with auspicious clouds and tiny elongated patterns, like dragons.

Zhou An squinted his eyes, as if he had guessed something, then put down his hand, and suddenly arched his hand and said, "Senior Zhou An, I have seen Your Majesty." ”

Your Majesty.

When these two words were spoken, the old man's expression paused, and then he showed memories and deep thoughts, as if he was remembering his previous years.

"It's been a long time since I've heard that called." The old man sighed: "In the current situation, who is the emperor in your country, and what kind of realm is it?" ”

Zhou An shook his head: "Nowadays, there are several countries in the country, and the emperor of the Great Chu State where I am located, I don't know what strength it is. ”

He answered honestly, and changed his previous jump.

After all, what he guessed just now, if it was right, then the one in front of him was probably the emperor of the so-called Great Domain Dynasty who was beyond the four major categories, and before those endless years.

"How can you guess my identity?" The old man asked with interest.

Zhou An said without hesitation: "To be able to go deep into it, and to live longer than any ancient epic, then it must be above the four major categories, and above the leaders of the four major categories, I can only guess such an identity." ”

Just like the current Great Chu State, is the national teacher strong, the general secretary strong, and the prime minister strong?

But there is something more beneficial than them, that is, Emperor Xingwu.

Emperor Xingwu sits in the Great Chu State, and the Great Chu State will not be chaotic.

Therefore, Zhou An came up with this conjecture.

"Since you're not the emperor, you don't need to call me Your Majesty." The old man smiled and said, "My real name is Yang, you can call me Yang Lao." ”

Zhou An put down his hand and said, "Thank you, Senior Yang, may I ask what does it mean that Senior Yang suddenly appeared and gave me another illusion?" ”

If you have a question, ask it, this is Zhou An's character, like this situation, it is best to be direct.

Because the one standing in front of him, but outside the years of independence, the legendary figure who has lived until now is still one of the people who stood at the top of that era.

If you are careful in front of a character like this, people don't need to use their abilities at all, they can feel it by just glance at it.

After all, the little rice you eat is not as much salt as others eat, and the roads you have traveled are not as many as the bridges that others have walked, so what should you do to be careful?

So simple is the ultimate.

Zhou An thought that the other party would give him some lofty answers, for example, because he looked at you and was only eight buckets tall and had amazing talents, so he wanted to test it, and then give you something treasure, just like he saw before.

Who knows, after this sentence was asked, Yang Lao actually shook his head.

"I've just been here for a long time, and I'm bored, and I finally saw someone come in, so I just had this idea."

It's as simple as that, it's as straightforward as that.

Zhou An is full of black lines, but if you think about it carefully, it actually makes sense.

At their level, to be honest, the long years are just a flick of a finger for them.

What kind of talent, what kind of Tianjiao, they haven't seen it?

It's just that Yang Lao has been here for a long time, and he must be bored.

And to tell the truth, except for Zhou An's pervert, just by virtue of the psychic realm, even if this ancient city stands in front of them, they may not be able to find it.

So after so many years, only Zhou An has walked in it once, and because of this, Yang Lao came to be curious, used those illusions to know Zhou An's previous things, and tested Zhou An easily, it's that simple.

"Then Senior Yang, why are you staying here?" Zhou An didn't get the answer he wanted, and continued to ask.

He was really curious now, and he was even more interested in this former emperor of the entire dynasty.

After all, as far as he knew, and he also understood, in that ancient era, there was only such a dynasty.

That's much more powerful than the current Great Chu State.

After all, there is no country that can be said to dominate the world.

Everyone is divided.

And in that era, a dynasty that could dominate the world could be said to be unique.

It's really on top of the four major categories.

Regarding Zhou An's question, Yang Lao's eyes showed loneliness and nostalgia again, he waved his hand, and in front of them, a table and two chairs appeared.

Then, Yang Lao remembered something again, waved his hand again, and another chair appeared in front of him.

"Sit down, and the little girl in your shadow, come out and sit too, this little girl really likes you, the woman I simulated is full of murderous aura after a little flirtation." Elder Yang said slowly.

After saying that, he sat down on his own chair.

Although he laughed at himself that he was no longer the emperor, every action was filled with a unique momentum of the emperor looking down on the world.

Even if he was sitting there, there was a strong aura of superiority.

Zhou An was natural, he would never be restrained, and sat directly opposite, and at the same time, the black jade in the shadow came out and sat next to Zhou An.

And since he came out, Heiyu looked at Yang Lao with a particularly interested look.

Elder Yang was also very calm, looking back at the black jade with the gaze of an elder.

Zhou An sat next to him, looking at the two of them, and felt that Heiyu was a little strange.

Since the day Black Jade followed him, she had never been so interested in anyone, and this was the first time.

As if sensing Zhou An's gaze, Heiyu turned his head around, and then gently placed his white hands on Zhou An's arms, pulled them carefully, put his rosy lips to Zhou An's ear, and muttered in a low voice.

"Zhou An, he is similar to me."

When Zhou An heard this, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.

This kind of whispered speech is no different from loud conspiracy in the eyes of those in the middle of the line.

Of course, he is also a calm person, and it is natural to listen to these words.

After listening to it, I fell into deep thought.

Similar?

When these two words appeared, Zhou An immediately thought of something, turned his head suddenly, looked at Yang Lao, and the shock in his eyes was undisguised.

"Senior Yang, could it be that you are half-human and half-weird?"

Black jade is half-human and half-weird, if it is similar, there is only such a conjecture.

Sure enough, after Zhou An said this, Yang Lao nodded and said without hesitation: "You guessed right, I am the first, she should be the second, but my situation is different from her, this little girl seems to have come out through production, and I am different, I have become like this because of the gradual erosion of endless years, in order to survive." ”

Speaking of this, Yang Lao waved his hand.

At this time, everything around me began to change gradually.

Zhou An found that he was still in the room, but everything around him had become an illusion.

Then, Yang Lao pointed ahead and said with a smile.

"Your kid is very curious, so let's see how I survived."

Zhou An turned his head to look in the direction pointed by Yang Lao, and then he saw that not far away, a man who was somewhat similar to Yang Lao was sitting in place.

However, it is not the picture of an old dragon clock, but a middle-aged man with a strong body.

The middle-aged man was wearing a yellow robe, and his body was extremely majestic, giving people a sense of majesty.

In addition to this, he is like a god sitting at the top, looking at everything in the world.

Even if he just sat cross-legged on the ground, it was as if behind him there was a throne that connected the heavens and the earth, and all beings were spinning in his hands.

This is the founder of the Great Domain Dynasty, the unrivaled emperor.

But at this moment, in addition to the momentum of the majestic world, there is also a heavy twilight on Yang Lao's body.

"I'm dying."

In the illusion, Yang Lao sighed, although his straight back was not bent, his spirit had a tendency to turn sharply.

"Everyone is dead, the old acquaintances are gone, and the green clothes are gone, I should have died, but I don't worry."

"So here I am, when I'm about to die, I'll use the green clothes and my old friends to completely suppress me."

When Zhou An heard this, he raised his eyebrows, as if he understood what it meant.

According to this meaning, Yang Lao is probably afraid that after he becomes weird, he will be dangerous to the whole world, so he also wants to use the method of green clothes to suppress himself.

Zhou An didn't speak, and continued to read patiently.

Then, everything in front of me began to change again.

Yang Lao's body is getting worse day by day, and his posture has changed from the appearance of a middle-aged man to a rickety old man.

The yellow robe faded and turned white.

At this time, the twilight on Yang Lao's body had reached an earth-shattering level, as if the rolling Yellow River was constantly roaring.

Even just a single hit will make a person's life end.

This ancient emperor, at this moment, is like an ordinary old man, holding the pen left by the old man in his hand, and constantly writing on the stone tablet.

"There's nothing to write about, it's just a person who survives, and in the end, it doesn't bring anything to the dawn."

Yang Lao wrote halfway, and then put the jade pen away, with a thick look of shame in his eyes.

He seemed to age a lot again in an instant.

"I still claim to be the master of the world, and I still say that the emperor who controls the world, but in the end, I can't even shelter my people, I can't give them a stable environment, and I fail!"

The slate was only half written, but Yang Lao gave up.

He sat down on the ground while lying flat on the ground, his eyes closed.

In the corners of his eyes, tears slid down his face.

When Zhou An saw this scene, the whole person fell into silence, not knowing how to evaluate it.

He thought that if he was in the position of Yang Lao, the regret at this moment should be true.

In the early years of ancient times, the emperor of the entire dynasty was the master of the whole world.

People like this are arrogant and conceited.

He has great ambition and amazing talent, but at the last moment, there is a weirdness.

The strange appearance made Yang Lao feel haggard, and like this emperor in the whole world in the early days, he watched his people be displaced and the people were struggling to make a living, and in the end they could only improve by prolonging their breath, but they could not be cured.

That feeling of powerlessness is extremely oppressive.

In front of him, the picture is flowing again, and the twilight on Yang Lao's body is gradually deepening with the passage of time.

Although the years have not left a mark on him, it is like an invisible knife, constantly digging into the flesh inside him.

Next, an extremely terrifying scene appeared, showing in front of Zhou An's eyes, making Zhou An's eyes widen.

On Yang Lao's body, half of the flesh and blood is gradually being consumed.

It's as if there are endless bugs, which are constantly gnawing.

His blood and flesh, after half of the flesh and blood disappeared, only a dry bone remained on Yang Lao's body.

The other half of the flesh and blood is also gradually disappearing.

Zhou An thought that Yang Lao would turn into a corpse, but the next scene surprised him.

In front of me, the half of the bones exuded a strange aura that was not unique to humans.

When the strange aura appeared, it immediately caused a reaction from the surrounding area.

At this time, Yang Lao, who had been watching Zhou An silently, said a word, as if it was an evaluation of the rest of his life.

"It's weird, isn't it, why did I turn weird? I have a grudge, I have a big grudge! ”

"My resentment is that I didn't solve the weirdness before I died, and this resentment can't even be suppressed in the cemetery."

Zhou An nodded.

It's a fake.

Like this kind of big man who is separated from the leaders of the four major categories, these places are really not necessarily calm.

But he didn't speak, but continued to watch.

Subsequently, when a strange aura appeared on Yang Lao's body, the reliefs, the bluestone slabs, suddenly appeared a strong sense of oppression.

After the sense of oppression appeared, it continued to condense on the half of Yang Lao's bones.

This is the power of the relief, the residual power of the remaining sages, to the extent that when they come together, even if it is a trick assembly, it is prohibitive.

"It should have an effect." Zhou Anxin thought.

When the power came to the half-skeleton, it immediately suppressed the strange aura, and the flesh and blood returned, covering all the half-bones.

However, Zhou An'an keenly felt that this was not the case.

"It's flesh and blood supplemented, but the weird root hasn't changed." Zhou An frowned and said.

Sure enough, as he thought, when the flesh and blood were made up again, Yang Lao, who had closed his eyes, opened his eyes violently.

Then he sat up and looked at his right hand, which should have been a piece of white bones.

Even this once ancient emperor couldn't hide the shock in his eyes.

"I'm half weird, half human?"

At this point, the illusion is over and everything is gone.

Zhou An looked at Yang Lao with a complicated look in his eyes.

"Because of the half-human and half-weird reasons, it allowed Shouyuan to be extended."

This is his conjecture, after all, it is really a miracle that Yang Lao has survived from that ancient era to the present.

Elder Yang did not refute this conjecture, and even nodded affirmatively.

"You guessed right, but since then, I can't leave this kind of place, and if you look around, they locked up the one-armed old man I met at the beginning, locked up in the green, and locked me up as well."

"For me, this is a living cell, a cell condensed by countless sages, a cell condensed by my old comrades-in-arms."

"If I go out, the other half of my body will be completely turned into a strange, and from then on, it is very likely that I will look at it at random, and it will be the death of countless living beings."

At this point, Zhou An has already understood what happened.

Including why this ancient emperor stayed here.

He sighed, a little unsure of how to speak.

"Boy, if you have anything to say, just say that I can't give you any benefit, but if you want to know any secrets, I can tell you clearly." Yang Lao said.

Zhou An raised his head, and then asked, "Weirdness really can't be eradicated?" What's inside the crack? After the crack in the crack, what is it? ”

This is what he wants to know the most, at the beginning, the trickster would say that she was weird, so it couldn't be explained because of the rules, but the person in front of him was a living person, a former emperor, an epic in the early years.

After hearing Zhou An's question, Yang Lao shook his head with a smile: "There are really a lot of things you kid want to know, and your ambition is not small." ”

Zhou An replied: "It's not ambition, it's just a little curious." ”

He was telling the truth, he was just curious.

Yang Lao retracted his gaze and fell into deep thought, as if organizing language.

After a few moments, he spoke slowly.

"It's just speculation that the source of the weirdness comes from pollution, but who is the source of pollution? We don't know, as for what the crack in the crack you are talking about, our guess is that behind the crack is a polluted world. ”

A polluted world?

Zhou An touched his chin and felt that it was getting more and more interesting.

He didn't speak, and waited patiently for Yang Lao to continue.

After a slight pause, Elder Yang continued to speak.

"There, there is a dead silence, a world of complete destruction, just like the world we are in, once alive, but our various practices make our world not like that world."

"Do you understand when I say that?"

Zhou An nodded, indicating that he understood.

It's actually quite simple.

That place should be a dead world, and everything in it has been occupied by weirdness, unlike the world where Zhou An is now, there are still human beings alive and prosperous.

Zhou An thought about it, still thinking about what he needed to ask, but when he thought about it, he had nothing to ask.

This situation is normal, suddenly a big guy from the early years came, and you asked him to ask him for secrets, and I really couldn't think of it for a while.

When Yang Lao saw Zhou An's appearance, he understood, and waved his hand: "In fact, those secrets in the early years, there is nothing to hear, a person has turned into loess, what is the use of saying secrets, if you really want to say, you are here, I can tell you for countless years, but it is useless." ”

"In fact, you are now, the most important thing, there is only one thing, and that is to constantly weaken the crack through the psychic space, so that the weirdness in the crack can be truly alleviated."

"Until one day, there is a person who can solve the weirdness once and for all."

Zhou An nodded, indicating understanding.

"Let's go, you young people have your own things to do, there's no need to stay here." Old Yang had a bit of calmness on his face.

He was very satisfied, because in the endless years, he was too lonely, and today Zhou An chatted with him for a while, so that this loneliness was alleviated.

He was able to stay here again for countless years.

In fact, this emperor in the early period, in this kind of cemetery, was not only a prisoner who was locked up, but also the controller of this kind of cemetery.

"Will we have a chance to meet next time?" Zhou An stood up.

He is indeed going out now, all the aftermath has been resolved, and he still has to go out for liver proficiency.

As for this, let them rest here.

"I'm afraid it will be difficult next time, because this cemetery does not exist here forever, it will keep moving." Elder Yang said slowly.

"After all, if you stay in one place for too long, sooner or later you will be exposed, so you keep cruising."

"And in the psychic space, there is the residual breath of the crack, and there is also resentment."

"If you stay in one place for a long time, I'm afraid that you will have resentment here and upset the balance here."

Zhou An nodded, indicating that he understood.

Indeed, if you are in one place for a long time, it is really possible.

"Elder Yang." Zhou An rubbed his hands: "Are there any relics or something, so many masters sleep for a long time, give me one or two?" ”

Yang Lao shook his head: "No, how do you think these reliefs came about?" ”

The meaning of the words is that this relief is related to relics and other things.

"Before leaving, do me a favor and rearrange the formation, at least so that some of the little ones will not step into it and be disturbed by this."

"They are not as powerful as you, maybe when they see these countless reliefs, their hearts will be shaken from then on, and they may be so ambitious that they will not be able to move forward for the rest of their lives."

Zhou An agreed.

Yang Lao remembered one more thing and said: "Array Venerable is true, at the beginning, one of her subordinates, who was also a formation mage, passed by here, but unfortunately she couldn't break the formation, I have explored her past." ”

Zhou An nodded, he didn't pay attention to these things.

Indulgence, if you come, you will be killed, it's very simple.

"You kid is strange, I explore your past, I can't explore, I only know that I have a grudge against you, or because I have seen Zongxu."

Yang Lao muttered: "But I don't care, who doesn't have some secrets?" ”

Zhou An didn't say anything, and he couldn't explain this thing.

Yang Lao just sat like this, put his hands on his knees, straightened his back, and did not continue to speak.

Zhou An stood up silently, and then, without any nonsense, began to arrange the formation.

The arrangement is very simple, and the materials are very simple, just use these stone slabs without damaging the material.

Because of these bluestone slabs, even the years can't erode them.

Soon, the formation was successfully arranged, much more clever than the broken formation, at least in Zhou An's opinion, the people of the Psychic Realm could not be lifted.

"Senior, I'll go first." Zhou An arched his hand and said.

Elder Yang waved his hand, indicating that he would leave.

Zhou An didn't stay any longer, turned around and left the space.

After leaving the room, the oppressive feeling was also reduced, and there was still a black palace around, but Zhou An did not hesitate and was ready to turn around and leave.

But at this time, Heiyu, who had been beside him, suddenly grabbed his hand and asked him to stop.

Zhou An asked strangely, "What's the matter?" ”

Heiyu, like Yang Lao, is half-human and half-weird.

But Heiyu is not like Yang Lao, he will be grounded here, so at this time, Heiyu grabbed him, and he felt that he must have something to say.

Sure enough, when Zhou An's gaze came over, Heiyu spread out his white palm.

Above the palm, there is a black Qi that is constantly circulating.

And inside the black Qi, there is a golden yellow constantly looming.

"What is this?" Zhou An frowned.

Heiyu quietly pointed to the room behind him and whispered, "He gave it to me, and he also said something to me." ”

Zhou An asked, "What words?" ”

Heiyu pointed at this Tuan Qi and said, "He said that this is good for me. ”

Hearing this, Zhou An frowned, preparing to take over this ball of Qi from the black jade's hand.

But before he could receive it, from that room, Yang Lao's voice came out.

"Don't touch it, it's a half-human, half-weird Qi, after you touch it, it won't do you any good."

"Don't worry, I don't have any other thoughts, this little girl has six extremely powerful miscellaneous abilities, but it is extremely difficult to fuse this."

"When she reaches the standard of fusion, this Tuan Qi can help her completely merge, and it can be regarded as a gift from my old fellow, and it can only be like this."

Zhou An looked at this Tuan Qi and made a look, meaning to let the black jade be put away.

This thing can definitely play a huge role after Black Jade obtains the remaining two Eight stunts.

But now is not the time to use it.

With it now, you can fuse up to six, but after eight, that's the best time.

Heiyu was ignorant, but still put Qi in his palm.

Zhou An turned around again and arched his hand into the room, "Thank you for the gift from Senior Yang." ”

After finishing speaking, he took the black jade and left the black palace.

But before leaving, he said something silently, as if talking to himself.

"Actually, if an ancient sage like you doesn't give gifts, we will be very happy."

After saying this, he left the black palace and disappeared.

In the room, after Yang Lao heard Zhou An's voice, he shook his head with relief.

"I'm the emperor of the Great Domain Dynasty, how can I not give you any benefits, it's just that this thing is just ashamed to show my hands, you kid will give me a long face."

After so many years, he called himself me for the first time, and he didn't feel unfamiliar.

Yang Lao looked at the bluestone slabs around him, lay on the ground, and pillowed his head with his hands: "Old friends, go on, and see when this long time will end." ”

There was no response from anyone around, but the bluestone slab shook majestically, as if it was by the ancient emperor's side, never wavering.
