"I ...... I want to know what happened to that catastrophe 10,000 years ago, and why I only have a remnant soul left.

I...... I would like to ask you to help me repair the remnant soul and regain my memory."

The old man stood with his hands in the void, and his words revealed endless desolation and sorrow......

Lin Fan looked at the old man and thought silently.

Thousands of years of time alone in the void and without memory, this desolation is not something that ordinary people can imagine.

And Lin Fan also has no memory of his previous life, and he will always search for those fragmentary pictures in the depths of his memory, but he will find nothing, so he can understand the old man's mentality at this time.

But thinking of his ability, Lin Fan hesitated again.

"The juniors don't want to shirk, but the seniors have advanced their skills, and you can't solve this matter with your ability, and I know that my strength is not good, and I really don't know how to help the seniors.

Otherwise, when the juniors go out, please invite the Pavilion Master and the elders of the Burial Sword Pavilion to come.

My cabinet has such a bond with my predecessors, they shouldn't ignore it."

Lin Fan's words were sincere, without half a perfunctory meaning.

The old man waited silently for him to finish, his eyes full of relief.

"Meritorious and Profound Cultivation...... I really can't afford this...... Just look at my state at this point......

And little one, you don't need to be presumptuous, I said that you are the only one in the world who can help me."

"Although I am a remnant soul, and I don't have much memory now, the way of cultivation has long been engraved in the depths of my soul and will never be forgotten.

The matter of repairing the remnant soul is extraordinary, someone must cultivate the Divine Sea, and use the power of the Divine Sea to nourish and cooperate with me.

And after I woke up, I also used the soul power I had accumulated for a hundred years to travel around the continent as a divine sense.

I found that the cultivation methods in this world are very different from those in the past.

In ancient times, people opened up the sea of gods to practice divine skills, could fly to the sky, move mountains and reclaim the sea, and the powerful could break through the extreme and break the void to explore the mysteries of the world.

And now...... People have been unable to open up the Divine Sea, and their strength is much weaker than that of the ancients.

The inheritance of ancient cultivation has been broken, and for some reason, people in the present world are unable to cultivate according to the ancient method.

Instead, he found another way and opened up a different cultivation method (soul cultivation, body cultivation), and cultivated the so-called soul sea and yuan sea, but this is not the real way of cultivation, and it is really difficult to break through the limit of soul body cultivation, so there is no strong person in my eyes in this world.

I have been looking for the reason for thousands of years, but there has been no answer, the only thing that can be determined is that this is the world's martial artist...... Something seems to be missing......".

"What's missing?", Lin Fan listened very carefully, carefully experiencing the old man's words, and was still confused.

The old man nodded earnestly.

"And today as soon as you entered the cave, I already felt it.

Every few years, people come here to hunt for treasure, and I don't bother to pay attention to them.

In the world, there may be people who can discover the secret of this stone tablet and perceive the existence of the old man, but there is no such character in this martial arts country.

And when you touch the stele, your soul qualifications are perceived by me.

The divine soul is perfect, the qualification of the heavenly soul, the soul is pure and the soul power is majestic and immense, even if it is placed ten thousand years ago, this is the superior qualification of cultivation."

The old man happily stated, as if he was mentioning his excellent junior in front of outsiders.

But Lin Fan's face was a little unbearable, and he replied curtly.

"That senior is really a false praise......

It's true that I have some talents, but six years ago, I was injured by evil qi entering my body, and at this time, just gathering soul power has trapped me, and it is still a question of whether I can break through in this life......

When Lin Fan heard the old man's praise, he couldn't help but blush, and he was a little embarrassed.

I used to have a good talent, 10 years old Soul Realm Fifth Stage, even if you look at the entire martial arts country, I am afraid that you can rank the top number, but at the age of 10, you have been stuck here and cannot break through.

And this talent ...... I'm afraid that the old man has made a mistake in judgment.

"Hahaha...... That's why you're arrogant.

How can a bad qi affect your qualifications, and I said that your heavenly soul is perfect, and your superior qualifications are also judged by the ancient cultivation method.

"Isn't it because of the evil spirit!" Lin Fan trembled in his heart.

The old man shook his head, "I said that this heaven and earth have changed too much compared to the ancient times, and the creatures that have been bred have changed according to the heavens and the earth, and the exercises of cultivation are naturally following the trend.

And instead of conforming to heaven and earth, you gave birth to ancient assets, which is really an outlier.

The current cultivation method has also made changes in accordance with the heavens and the earth, and you, an outlier, have the resources of the ancients.

Then the current path of cultivation is not suitable for you at all, and even if you forcibly cultivate with perseverance, it will be difficult to make progress."

These words suddenly made Lin Fanmao pause, because there was one thing that the old man did not say wrong.

That is, Lin Fan is an outlier compared to anyone in this world.

Because although he was born here, his soul does not belong to this world at all—his soul has crossed over, and of course he is not affected by this heaven and earth.

And after listening to the old man's words, Lin Fan also realized something.

It's not that the soul is damaged, it's that the current exercises are not suitable.

The old man explained Lin Fan's doubts in a convincing manner, and there was no hint of concealment, which made Lin Fan feel grateful in his heart.

Looking at the old remnant soul in front of him, Lin Fan seemed to have a little more sympathy for the old man, and he said seriously in his heart.

"If the seniors have anything to do with the juniors, but it doesn't matter, as long as the juniors can do it, they will do their best."

Lin Fan's attitude was also extremely sincere, since the old man could break through his embarrassment and solve his confusion, he might really need his own help.

As soon as the old man solved his long-standing confusion, Lin Fan couldn't stand idly by, and the favor of others would be reciprocated, which was also Lin Fan's way of life.

The old man smiled when he heard what Lin Fan said, and nodded with satisfaction.

Then he frowned slightly, stared at Lin Fan for a while, as if thinking about something, and then slowly spoke.

"Do you want to break through the shackles and control your own destiny".

"...... control your own destiny", hearing this, Lin Fan's spirits perked up, for martial artists, this is not a complicated problem, after thinking for a short time, he tilted his head and said with a smile.

"Although the younger generation is young, as a martial artist, of course this goal must be achieved.

And martial arts are overwhelming, and taking charge of the mandate of heaven has always been the ambition of the kid."

The glint in his eyes flashed, and the old man nodded with satisfaction.

"Okay, it's a bit arrogant, but it's also a matter of heart.

However, perhaps some warriors have realized that some changes are taking place in this world, and this change seems to be closely related to the decline of my time, and now it is coming again, which can only be said to be another catastrophe.

But this catastrophe, the ancient warriors were not spared, and now the warriors are weak, and they know little about this imminent crisis.

And with your current strength, self-protection is not enough, and it is really embarrassing.

I'm also memory loss, and I can't remember what that ancient catastrophe was."

After saying that, the old man's eyes froze.

"I don't know, you would like to help me recover my memories and fight the catastrophe with me.

Of course, this is also to help yourself, no one can stay out of the face of the catastrophe, including you and me, as well as your relatives and friends."

Lin Fan was secretly shocked in his heart, but he also understood the stakes, but he thought of his own strength.

"What the seniors said was out of righteousness, and it also hit the weakness of the younger generation, but the seniors also said that my strength ......."

Smiling slightly, the old man interrupted Lin Fan's words.

"So, I... I want to make a deal with you".

"The transaction ......", Lin Fan was confused again......

The old man pondered for a while, probably due to the habit before losing his body, and the illusory figure seemed to sigh, and continued.

"Let's not mention this deal, I said, the current exercises are not suitable for you at all, no matter how you cultivate your soul and body, you can continue to cultivate with perseverance, but your achievements are limited after all."

Lin Fan nodded, there was no doubt about this conclusion, after all, it was his personal experience.

The old man paused and continued.

"Your bottleneck is not a soul damage at all, but a matter of exercises, if I say, I have a way for you to break through the bottleneck of soul cultivation and continue to cultivate, and you can ...... to the maximum."

"What!"

Lin Fan interrupted the old man's words with an exclamation—startling the old man.

"The seniors are...... It means that it will allow me to continue cultivating my soul ......."

Lin Fan trembled with excitement, blood seemed to rush to his head at the same time, and his face was flushed.

Being able to continue to cultivate the soul is Lin Fan's dream, and it is also the goal that he has been striving for every day for the past few years, for this goal, not only himself, but even his master Mu Qingyun is making unremitting efforts, and Qiu Ying is also looking forward to himself.

And at this time...... This illusory old man actually said that there was a way to help him continue his cultivation......

The old man nodded solemnly and continued.

"There is a way, but ...... It comes at a cost."

Hearing the old man say this, Lin Fan couldn't bear it again, "Any price, the juniors are willing to pay, as long as they can continue to cultivate, as long as the juniors take it, I am willing to pay ......."

Looking at Lin Fan, who was a little overexcited, the old man's face was still covered with haze.

"You can afford it, but the loss is really not small......

The price is ...... Your life ......".

"My ...... Fate!"

Lin Fan was suddenly stunned, as if he hadn't heard it, or he couldn't believe the old man's words when he heard it.

Seeing the old man's serious face, Lin Fan knew that he had heard it right, the so-called price was indeed "life".
