Chapter 38: Chen Tian!
The ghost mask was undoubtedly the most important treasure of the ghost-faced empress. It symbolized her longing for her brother. She had sat in the mortal world for so long just to wait for his return.
The bronze ring was a storage ring that could be compared to a low-level immortal treasure. It was of great use to Chen Tian right now. As for the blue crystal, Chen Tian did not know how to use it, but it gave him a familiar feeling. Nevertheless, he decided to put it off for now.
"The path of longevity, the path of longevity, is there really such a thing as longevity? In the end, I can't escape fate. My path is still very long. I won't allow this to happen."
[Note from the author: Nothing lasts forever, not even gods and immortals. Even gods can die at some point, and this is not necessarily related to time. It could be due to any number of factors.]
"Such compassion doesn't seem like my style."
Chen Tian rubbed his nose and said, He sighed softly and slowly left the cave with a bag of immortal stones.
….....
"Hey, where is he?"
"The tracks we've been tracking stop here."
"Someone is following me." Chen Tian heard a voice coming from the top of the cliff just as he reached the entrance of the cave. His eyes turned cold.
"Professor, did we lose the savage? I'm not happy."
"This is a major discovery that will shock the entire world."
When he heard this, Chen Tian slowly put away his thoughts of making a move. It was just an ordinary archaeological team, and there were no more secrets in the cave. Chen Tian jumped off the cliff and left via another path.
A group of archeologists seemed to have heard something from the bottom of the cliff. They leaned against the cliff to check.
"Look! There's a hole there."
"There seem to be traces of activity, and it's new!"
"That savage must have left it behind!"
Then, the old professor and the archeologists tied a rope around themselves and lowered themselves into the cave.
Just as everyone stepped into the cave, an illusion slowly enveloped them.
…
Kunlun Mountain, home of all the gods
The old professor could be said to be a living fossil in the archaeological world. He had traveled extensively all these years and had seen all kinds of strange things, but he had never been as shocked as he was today.
In front of them was a peaceful village, with people coming and going. A little girl was pulling a youth wearing a ghost mask and running towards the village.
"This is?"
The professor watched everything quietly, but he didn't take the young man's perspective into consideration. Instead, he stood quietly to the side and watched everything.
He saw the Divine General take the youth away. He saw the helpless sobbing of the girl.
There were romantic cultivators who could pluck the stars and moon, wield swords, and sing long songs. They used the power of the entire country to create a five-colored altar. It was a place where talents were everywhere, and there were even supreme heroes who were even more brilliant than the stars. They stepped onto the altar to search for new opportunities.
The air smelled like flowers, and there were four seasons, like spring. It was a peaceful, eternal place. There was also an indescribably bloody battlefield. All types of creatures were bathed in blood as they fought valiantly, carrying an ancient aura that was both ancient and desolate.
This was a remnant illusion, a remnant drop of blood from the ghost mask.
The professor looked at the scene in front of him in shock. He was shocked beyond words.
"These? Could it be? Some people's memories?" The old professor gulped and spoke excitedly.
A spear tore through the air and easily pierced through the youth's body.
Boom!
When the old professor saw this, he knelt down on the ground and started bleeding from all seven of his holes.
"Professor!"
"Professor, what's wrong?"
"Professor, are you alright?"
The illusion disappeared, and the archeologists rushed to the professor and asked with concern.
The elderly professor wiped blood from his face and asked in a trembling voice, "Did you just witness what occurred?"
Everyone's bodies trembled slightly. They looked at each other, swallowed their saliva, and replied with a trembling voice, "We, we, we saw it."
"I saw the galaxy shattering there; I saw Sword Kinesis Flight; and I also saw piles of corpses."
"Removing the stars with one hand!"
"It really was too terrifying! That was a legendary scene!"
"That scene was too real; it didn't seem fake."
If someone told them, they would definitely think that person was crazy. But just now, they saw it with their own eyes. Everyone was discussing while trembling.
They were all ordinary people. In terms of physical and mental strength, they were far inferior to Chen Tian. They couldn't even see the complete memories of the illusion.
Many people could not bear it and left the illusion in advance. Only the old professor lasted the longest, but he only saw the young man die.
"One punch to shatter the heavens, one flip of the hand to destroy the galaxy!"
"Could it be an extraterrestrial civilization? Or a civilization that once existed on Earth?"
"How long ago was that if it was an Earth-born civilization?"
"Were those really humans? Can humans do this? It's too terrifying!"
Everyone had yet to recover from their shock and was immersed in the memories they had just seen.
"Do you remember the savage just now? We chased him here, but there are no traces of savages here."
"What does that savage have to do with this place?!"
Outside the cave, the wind blew loudly. The inside of the cave was quiet, without any sound. Thinking of the savage's powerful combat skills and the frightening scene in their memories, everyone's hair stood on end, and a chill ran down their spines.
"Look there!" A surprised voice broke the silence.
Everyone looked in the direction of the flashlight and saw an incredible scene.
There was a straw hut and a huge rock in the cave by the cliff.
The old professor was the first to rush over. He excitedly took out a magnifying glass and examined it carefully. His voice was trembling.
"What material is this? I can't tell."
"Such an ancient house might be even older than the Cretaceous Era. It might even be hundreds of millions of years old. I can't say for sure!"
Everyone sucked in a breath of cold air. No one doubted what the old professor had said. He was one of the most authoritative people in the world right now. His fame was real, and there was no element of fishing for fame in it.
The savages of Kunlun Mountain The cave by the cliff The thatched hut from hundreds of millions of years ago The starry sky and that majestic building from someone's memories!
Everyone present was shocked. It was as if they had discovered some hidden history, something untouchable.
Everything was slowly fading away over the endless years. Just what kind of secrets were hidden on the Earth that humans relied on to survive?
"Wait, there are words here!"
Everyone quickly went over and saw that every stroke was filled with desolation. It was written in modern Chinese characters.
"Even though endless time has passed, it wasn't for the sake of achieving immortality, only for the sake of waiting for your return in the secular world. After endless reincarnations on the longevity path, can we meet again in the future?!" It was signed—Chen Tian!
