The space in the main hall is very large and empty. Except for a throne at the front, there is nothing else. There are not even the most basic pillars. I don’t know how the roof of the hall was built.
Beside the throne at the front, a figure wearing a white robe stood with his hands behind his back, his back facing Jian Chen and the two of them. He did not exude any aura, but it gave people the illusion that he had become one with the world.
.
Jian Chen and Ming Dong walked side by side and finally stopped in the center of the hall. Then they raised their hands to the white-robed man in front of them and said, "Senior."
"Alas..." A long sigh came from the man's mouth. It was just one word, but it was full of a sense of vicissitudes of life. Immediately, the man slowly turned around, and it was only then that Jian Chen and the others saw his appearance clearly.
He turned out to be a middle-aged man, who looked to be no more than forty years old, with a lean look on his face.
The middle-aged man in white robe has been staring at Ming Dong. His plain eyes seem to be able to penetrate the mysteries of the world and see through everything in the world. Nothing can hide anything under his gaze. After a long time, the middle-aged man in white robe
He sighed again, looking away from Ming Dong, looking at the sky above, as if he could see through the roof of the temple, straight into the nine heavens, and sighed: "It's been five thousand years... It's been five thousand years, one day, I
I finally found your descendant, and I can finally fulfill your last wish."
"Five thousand years!" After hearing this, Jian Chen and Ming Dong were shocked. Could it be that the middle-aged man in front of them, who looked only about forty years old, was actually an old monster who had lived for five thousand years? And
The two of them didn't listen to what the middle-aged man said later.
"Alas..." The middle-aged man seemed to think of some past events and sighed repeatedly. Then his eyes fell on Ming Dong, with a smile on his face and said: "Child, come here."
Mingdong hesitated, walked forward for a distance with an uneasy mood, and said respectfully: "Senior!"
A palm-sized ancient jade emitting green light appeared out of thin air in the middle-aged man's hand. Just as the ancient jade appeared, the expression on Ming Dong's face changed, and he could no longer take his eyes away from the ancient jade.
"Child, do you feel that there is a magical call calling you, making you unable to control yourself?" The middle-aged man looked at Ming Dong with a smile on his face and said softly.
"Yes, senior!" Ming Dong never took his eyes away from Gu Yu.
"This piece of ancient jade has been here for five thousand years. It was given to me by your ancestor. It records what he has learned throughout his life. He asked me to give this piece of ancient jade to me if I find his descendants one day.
I gave the jade to him, and now I can finally help my old friend fulfill his last wish." The middle-aged man's tone was full of vicissitudes of life, and then he waved his hand, and the ancient jade was wrapped in an invisible force, exuding the scent of Mengmeng Bao.
The light slowly floated in front of Ming Dong.
Looking at the ancient jade floating in front of him, a strong call from his blood appeared in Ming Dong's heart. Ming Dong almost reached out to pick up the ancient jade uncontrollably several times, but he was restrained every time.
When he came down, his mind was filled with doubts. Everything that happened now made him confused.
Ming Dong sorted out the thoughts in his mind, looked at the middle-aged man in white robes, and said with a puzzled face: "Senior, is this ancient jade really left by my ancestors? And who is my ancestor?
?You must have found the wrong person, right? I have never heard of my ancestors since I was a child."
"Alas..." The middle-aged man sighed again, his voice full of sorrow, and murmured: "What a day, I didn't expect that after five thousand years, even your descendants will not remember you." The middle-aged man's
His tone was full of sadness, and then he looked at Ming Dong and said, "My child, what is your name."
"Senior, my name is Ming Dong!" Ming Dong replied.
"Mingdong, Mingdong, what a good name." The middle-aged man muttered a few words in a low voice and said, "Child, now let me tell you what happened to the Ming family five thousand years ago."
The middle-aged man pondered for a while, then looked up at the sky, as if he was lost in memories, and said slowly: "Five thousand years ago, your Ming family was considered a wealthy family. At that time, a member of your Ming family appeared.
A genius from Heaven who broke through to the realm of Earth Saint Master at the age of thirty, he is your ancestor - Ming Tiantian."
"Your ancestor Ming and I met unexpectedly one day, and later became good friends. We jointly created a mercenary group, traveled around the world, experienced countless life and death battles, lived and died together countless times, crawled out from the dead, and made me
Your ancestor Ming Yitian has long been a close friend who will live and die together."
"A hundred years later, your ancestor Ming Yitian and I reached the peak of the Sky Saint Master at the same time. However, these hundred years have already made us both tired of the mercenary career, so we quit the mercenary world at the same time and came to live and die in a deep mountain and old forest.
Close and prepare to become a saint."
"Ten years later, the two of us successfully broke through the realm of the Holy King at the same time, and then broke out, traveled to Tianyuan Continent, explored many desperate places, and gained some gains. Decades later, your ancestor and I are both powerful.
After a lot of improvement, I finally decided to enter the Death Cavern. In the Death Cavern, I was accidentally attacked by a curse. In order to save me, your ancestor Ming Yitian used his own body to cast a curse on me. He gave up.
Save yourself and protect me."
Having said this, the look on the middle-aged man's face became extremely solemn, mixed with unconcealable grief, and he said in a deep voice: "The Death Demon Cave is the most dangerous Jedi place on Tianyuan Continent. With the strength of our Holy King,
You still can't protect yourself inside. The power of the curse is really terrible. Even with the strength of your ancestors, you can't resist the erosion of the power of the curse. In the end, you only have two months to live."
"After knowing that he was bound to die, your ancestor quietly returned to Ming's house in order to spend his last days contentedly. But what he never expected was that when he returned to Ming's house, things had changed.
, the glorious Ming family in the past no longer exists, it was wiped out by the enemies we once provoked more than thirty years ago, and all the descendants of the Ming family have disappeared."
"And your ancestor and I have been wandering around the Tianyuan Continent all day long, and our whereabouts are erratic. We have already left the Ming family an unknown distance, so the two of us have no idea about the destruction of the Ming family."
"Such a tragic ending made your ancestor Ming Tian extremely sad. I didn't expect that at the moment when his life was about to end, my family would end up in such a miserable end. At that time, I was standing next to your ancestor. I understand his mood very well.
It was so painful that he left two lines of blood and tears."
"Next, your ancestor and I searched all over the world for the enemies who destroyed the Ming family. Unfortunately, although we two had considerable strength at that time, we were only two people after all, and we had offended many enemies.
In addition, more than thirty years have passed and many people have forgotten about the destruction of the Ming family. As a result, many clues have been interrupted. In just two months, we have not traced anything useful at all.
There is no news, and it is not even known whether any descendants of the Ming family survived by chance."
After saying this, the middle-aged man's expression suddenly became sad, and he said in a low voice: "Two months later, your ancestor passed away from this world with regret and unwillingness on his face because of the power of the curse. Before he died,
, I will use my spiritual thoughts to imprint all my lifelong learning into this piece of ancient jade, and entrust it to me. If I meet a descendant of the Ming family one day, I will just hand this jade to his descendant, forget it.
But he has a last wish."
"I am deeply saddened by his passing one day. He and I are not only close friends in life and death, but also the best brothers in my life. Moreover, he died for me. I took the ancient jade he entrusted to me before his death.
I traveled throughout the Tianyuan Continent in search of the enemies who destroyed the Ming family and the descendants of the Ming family who might survive. I searched hard for three hundred years and eliminated many forces who might be the murderers. Unfortunately, for the descendants of the Ming family
There is still no news at all, which has always been the biggest regret in my heart."
The middle-aged man let out a long sigh, looked at Ming Dong with soft eyes, and said: "Fortunately, God has eyes. I didn't expect that after five thousand years, I would unexpectedly meet the descendants of the Ming family. One day, if I know
If so, then he should rest in peace under the Nine Springs."
After listening to what the middle-aged man said, Mingdong's expression had already become dull. What the middle-aged man said shocked him so much that it had a huge impact on his soul.
It was a little hard for him to accept.
He never imagined that the Ming family had such a glorious and tragic story.
Jian Chen, who was standing aside, was also stunned by what the middle-aged man said. What shocked him even more was the strength of the middle-aged man. He was a high-ranking Holy King, and he had five thousand soldiers.
The Holy King of years ago was a supreme being that he could look up to.
The middle-aged man slowly came to Ming Dong, and the way he looked at Ming Dong seemed to be like an elder looking at a younger generation, but also as if he was looking at his own descendants, full of love and care, in short, very complicated.
"Son, you must be here to participate in the mercenary competition held every fifty years." The middle-aged man said to Ming Dong with a soft voice.
Ming Dong nodded numbly, he still had not recovered from the shock in his heart.
"Are your parents still there?" the middle-aged man continued to ask.
"Yes, my parents have always lived in a mountain village, but my grandfather went hunting in the mountains when I was young and fell off a cliff and died." Ming Dong replied.
The middle-aged man sighed lightly, with a sad look on his face, and said: "After the mercenary competition is over, I will accompany you to pick up your family. I will take care of them for a day. I
We must not watch the descendants of one day live such a hard life. As a brother, I feel sorry for him and I owe him too much."
"Thank you, senior!" Mingdong was overjoyed. With the middle-aged man taking care of him, it would be difficult for his family to live a happy and peaceful life. After all, this was a holy king who lived five thousand years ago, and he was even more so.
At least the masters of the Sky Saint Master admire the master of the temple extremely. Many people will never be able to see such a powerful man in their lifetime.
The grief in the middle-aged man's expression slowly faded away, and he said with a smile: "My child, your ancestor and I are life-and-death friends. You don't need to call me senior. If you don't mind, just call me Uncle Tian."
"Yes, Uncle Tian!" Mingdong shouted respectfully.
The smile on the middle-aged man's face became a little stronger, and he said: "My child, your current strength is still too weak. You can stay here temporarily during this period. I will do my best not to destroy your foundation."
Under the premise of helping you improve your strength, whether the Ming family's past glory can be restored to the world depends entirely on you, don't let your ancestors down."
