Chapter 169: Remnants of the Ancient Ages

"Brother Shao, don't you want to know why we were hunted down?" Hua Jingtong asked.

Hmm? What does Hua Jingtong mean by this? Didn't he say goodbye to himself and go into hiding? Why did he suddenly mention this again.

"There is indeed some curiosity. Shao Nan nodded.

"It's all because of it!" Hua Jingtong took out something like a rag, which seemed to have some colorful colors on it.

"What is this?" Shao Nan was a little puzzled.

"This is a map that points out the location of an immortal cave in the ancient period, but it is only a fragmentary map, and it is not known how much area it occupies in the entire map. Hua Jingtong didn't sell anything, and directly told the truth.

Shao Nan was shocked, it turned out to be something from the ancient period, it was too rare. After all, the Ancient Chaos period is more than eight million years ago.

In the library of the Great Dao Natural Sect, there is a book dedicated to the history of the development of the Colorful World, and Shao Nan is quite interested in this, reading through it almost word by word, and he knows quite well about the history of the Colorful World for hundreds of millions of years.

Hundreds of millions of years ago, the colorful world was born, and all races appeared, becoming the world's hegemon. This period is known as the Archean period. In the primeval period, the strength of the Wan clan was incomparable, and the unparalleled talent allowed the Wan clan to stand on top of the world.

Tens of thousands of years ago, the Terran Race slowly rose, especially the Terran ancestors gradually studied the cultivation method. All races are gifted, and humans are too immature to compare. However, cultivation has changed the fate of human beings, and countless heroes of the human race have been born, especially the first batch of immortals appeared, opening the era of immortals, and gradually changing the situation of human beings. This period is called the Ancient Period.

From 10 million to 8 million years ago, the powerful human race and the dissenting ten thousand races launched a great war, and the first world war between humans and all races was fought for the belonging of the colorful world. This period is known as the Troubled Period.

Eventually, humans relied on their natural creativity and a growing number of immortals. Finally won the first ancient war, all races hidden, human beings ruled the colorful world, and the period of immortals began. During this period, it can be said that immortals are walking all over the ground, and there are many returns like dogs.

Until 3 million years ago, the hidden races gathered enough strength to come out of the nest and declare war on humanity, vowing to regain the dominance of the colorful world. From then on, the Second World War of Mankind and All Nations began. This time, both sides are doing their best. After millions of years of development, they have entered a peak period. The two sides fought one after another, and the colorful world was on the verge of collapse.

It was at this time that the colorful world was forcibly split in two. Anyone whose strength exceeds a certain limit is forcibly sent into a stable space, and this space has been turned into a fairy world by later generations. As for the rest, they remain in the original colorful world. That is, the current world is again called the mortal world. And this period is known as the period of immortal chaos.

Since millions of years ago, the aura has gradually decreased, and human cultivation has become difficult. Ascending to the Immortal Realm is no longer as easy as it used to be. This time began to be called the Early Antiquity.

By 500,000 years ago, the immortals had gradually become legends, and cultivation had become even more difficult, and ascension had become even more difficult. In the past, any place in the Colorful Continent was suitable for cultivation to the extent that the spiritual energy was strong. Nowadays, only some spiritual energy in the beautiful mountains and rivers can reach the standard of cultivation. As for other places, the thin aura can only meet the general consumption. This has continued until now, and this period is known as the period of seeking immortals.

The ancient period was 8 million years ago. At that time, any strong person was at least in the realm of immortals, and if he wanted to stay in the cave, Shao Nan didn't dare to imagine that strength. If you can really enter such a cave, although most of the things may disappear in the years, everything that can be left behind will definitely be shocking things. If you get any one, it must be rampant in the colorful world, and it is not a big problem.

"It turned out to be this treasure, but why?" Shao Nan didn't finish, staring at Hua Jingtong.

With such a heavy treasure, it should be hidden in every possible way to prevent others from knowing, Hua Jingtong actually took the initiative to take it out, and even explained it to himself, which really made Shao Nan scratch his head.

"Because I want to give this remnant picture to Brother Shao. After Hua Jingtong said this, he felt that the whole person was relaxed.

"What? you say, you say, you want to give it to me?" Shao Nan was even more surprised than when he knew the value of the remnant just now.

"That's right. The two of us have been hunted down since we got this remnant, and now we have finally escaped from the pursuit, and we also understand that with the strength of the two of us, we may not be able to find other fragments of the remnant for the rest of our lives. Brother Shao not only saved our lives, but also felt that Brother Shao had a much greater future than the two of us. Maybe there's a chance. This is a gift from the two of us to repay you for saving your life. Hua Jingtong stuffed the remnants into Shao Nan's hands.

"Brother Hua!" Shao Nan clutched the remnant picture in his hand, not knowing what to say.

"Alright. There will be a period later. Hua Jingtong didn't say more, pulled Zhu Mengqi and left directly, and in the end, only one sentence floated over, "Brother Shao, the wine tasting meeting of Tianji Sect is definitely worth a visit." ”

Shao Nan watched Hua Jing and his wife go away, not knowing what to say. I just felt that Hua Jingtong was worth befriending, and I killed the two opponents easily, but I didn't expect the reward to be a remnant picture of the Immortal Cave Mansion in the Troubled Ancient Period. That's a lot of value for the return.

Although the true identities of Hua Jingtong and the two have not yet been figured out, there is no need to think so much about it now. The two of them are definitely not ordinary cultivators, and it doesn't matter who they are.

Shao Nan simply appraised the remnant picture in his hand, the age is indeed quite old, and it is difficult to determine the origin with his own identification skills. It can only be put into the space of the mysterious grass first.

After Shao Nan caught up with the convoy of the Fuyuan caravan and briefly explained a few words about the departure of Hua Jingtong and his wife, Shao Nan returned to his carriage to reminisce about what had happened in the past two days.

The Fuyuan caravan provoked a country to take the initiative to rob with the strength of its subordinates, and Huajing's same remnant map of the Immortal Cave Mansion attracted Shi Hongguang and the two of them to chase and kill for thousands of miles, it seems that the world of cultivating immortals is much more cruel than he imagined. Especially in modern times, the resources of cultivating immortals have become the focus of competition for all monks.

In the past, when the immortal cultivation world was at its peak, tens of thousands of sects and countless masters gathered. Now there are only one hundred and eight sects, eight hundred side sects plus three thousand left sects, and the rest of the small sects are completely unavailable. You must know that today's door has no advantage over any of the tens of thousands of sects in the past. It can be seen the degree of decline of the immortal cultivation realm.

In fact, Shao Nan had already gone to the nearby "black shop" halfway to inquire about the news. As Shao Nan expected, the "black shop" does have some internal circulation information, which is only provided to members, and Shao Nan's identity as a second-level member plays a role.

The Lord of the Water Cloud Country was at the peak of foundation building, but he was at the critical juncture of alchemy, and he couldn't get out, as for the other people who built the foundation, all of them were taken away by the Qingyun Sect, so he could only send his subordinates to lead the team to lead the team to grab this Qingying Immortal Xuanteng. Shao Nan already knew it in his heart, so he was not afraid at all, it was a big deal to expose the foundation building and cultivation, and push it all the way.

The strength of the Fuyuan caravan was fully reflected in the following journey. Out of Shuiyun Country, Shao Nan thought that the Fuyuan caravan entered the city to recruit guards, but he didn't expect that there was a station of the Fuyuan caravan in the city, so he directly transferred some guards to join the convoy. Then the second city, the third city, and soon the number of guards returned to more than six hundred.

Three months later, the Fuyuan caravan arrived at its destination, the Hundred Brewing Kingdom controlled by the Heavenly Pole Sect. Shao Nan, as a VIP of the Fuyuan caravan, lived directly in the headquarters of the national capital of the Fuyuan caravan, and there was a separate courtyard. The most important point is that there are formations arranged around the courtyard, and the concentration of spiritual energy in it can fully support the cultivation of the peak of qi refining.

It's a sign of goodwill, but it's also an invisible investment. Providing Shao Nan, who is at the eighth level of qi refining, with a cultivation environment at the peak of qi refining, this kind of treatment is definitely a high-standard hospitality. Shao Nan happily accepted, and had more good feelings for the Fuyuan caravan in his heart.

As soon as you hear the name of the Hundred Brewing Country, it must be a country controlled by the Heavenly Extreme Sect. Tianji Sect is famous for immortal wine, and Baijiu Country is a big wine-making country in terms of name, which is obviously influenced by Tianji Sect.

There was still more than a month to go before the wine tasting of Tianji Sect, and Shao Nan had enough time to adjust his state and find out the news.

Shao Nan's biggest advantage now compared to when he first came out of the sect is that after cultivating all the way, he finally made up for the disadvantage of unexpectedly advancing to the foundation building, and the foundation building cultivation has been completely stable, and it is a solid foundation. Then you can start to improve your realm.

After suppressing the realm for half a year, the second to fourth dantian has long been ready to move, presumably even if there is foundation building control, it is possible to break through the foundation building within a month or two.

The next task was determined by Shao Nan, but the plan often couldn't catch up with the changes.

"Second Grandpa, I think he seems to be about the same age as me, why did you let him use the courtyard you usually use for cultivation?" A slightly playful girl stood beside Fu Hongyi and wrinkled her little nose.

"Didn't you always want to know a young man? Fu Hongyi stroked his beard and said with a smile.

"That stupid-looking person?" Fu Xiaoxia's face was full of disbelief, thinking that the second grandfather was laughing at him again.

"At the age of about twenty, he is at the eighth level of qi refining, and he has defeated the powerhouse at the peak of qi refining alone. Do you think it counts?" Fu Hongyi's expression was straight, although he was saying it to Fu Xiaoxia, his voice was so that everyone in the entire hall could hear it.

The whole hall suddenly fell silent. (To be continued......)

PS: I'm so busy that I forgot that yesterday was a small year, alas! It seems that it is twenty-three in the north, and twenty-four in some places in the south. I would like to add a happy new year!
