Chapter 669: The Ancestor of the Celestial Silkworm, a Legendary Life
"The first person to study the method of parasitism by monsters is the ancestor of my Celestial Silkworm lineage."
While Tiancan was recalling the records of the family history, he continued with excitement: "The ancestor is extremely talented and has extremely high understanding. He was the first to come up with a way to survive the catastrophe of the era with the help of the protagonist of the next era. He was also the first to propose the method of identification.
The standard for the protagonist of the next era.”
"The ancestor attaches great importance to history, and he is also the ancestor. He was the first to propose the creation of a clan history secret collection, and personally served as the first curator. This established the glorious mission of our Celestial Silkworm lineage to compile history for generations, so that our Zerg clan can go through three eras.
, still haven’t forgotten our roots, and remember the glory of the Zerg clan.”
Because of this, the Celestial Silkworm lineage has a transcendent status. Although it does not have much power in normal times, when it comes to major matters, especially those related to the continuation of the race, the Celestial Canker lineage has a very important voice.
Just like this time, he can directly negotiate with Qin Yi on behalf of the Gu insect clan.
Taking advantage of Tiancan's pause, Long Sheng asked: "I know that your lineage of Tiancan is very remarkable, but what does this have to do with our theme?"
Tiancan looked at Long Sheng helplessly.
"I am not saying this to show off, but to foreshadow. Without these concepts, you cannot understand the family history I am talking about."
Long Sheng nodded, stretched out his hand, and signaled Tiancan to continue.
Tiancan took a deep breath, regained his composure, and then continued: "The ancestor was born in the late era of ghosts and gods. The life of the ghost and insect clan at that time was not easy. The method of giving birth to offspring was to split the body. This method is extremely harmful to the origin.
Generally speaking, each ghost insect can divide at most three to six times in its life, and the interval is at least more than a thousand years. After it has recovered to a certain extent and certain conditions are met, it can divide again and continue its offspring."
"The process of splitting is also extremely dangerous. Accidents often occur, leading to the death of mother and child at the same time."
"Of course, there are also special situations where the mother dies and the offspring survive. The ancestor is such a special situation."
Long Sheng's eyes narrowed, and in the end he said nothing and continued to listen quietly.
Tiancan continued to narrate immersedly: "The ancestor has been very smart since he was a child, and he is full of curiosity about everything. The ancestor is the first ghost insect to discover the climate change laws of the era of ghosts and gods, and to predict the great changes in the world."
"Because of the performance of the ancestor, he got the attention of the elders who passed down the family history at that time, and he accepted the ancestor as a disciple. Therefore, the ancestor formed an indissoluble bond with the family history. From the elders who passed down the family history, the ancestor learned for the first time
He discovered the concept of an era, and based on his findings, he was the first to put forward the prophecy that they were at the end of an era and that this era was about to end."
"The words of the ancestor were taken seriously, and the ghost insect clan, which had experienced an epoch of catastrophe, began to prepare for the upcoming epoch of catastrophe. At this time, the status of the ancestor was also significantly improved, and it had sufficient resources and subordinates.
, began to make various attempts, and finally, after three thousand years of observation and research, the ancestor finally proposed the "Era Protagonist Theory" and determined that one of the protagonists of the next era is the monster. Then it took another three hundred years to finally
Developed a perfect method of parasitic monsters."
Tiancan went on to explain in detail the method of parasitic monsters: "There is a natural space inside the real bones of monsters. This space can accommodate the bodies of ghost insects. However, there is a rejection reaction. The ancestors made targeted research and found out
The Secret Technique of Life Cocoon can effectively block this rejection reaction, deceive the monster's consciousness, absorb the monster's vitality and soul, and strengthen itself."
Tiancan said in a sighing tone: "It can be said that the ancestor is the biggest contributor to our Zerg race's ability to survive the great catastrophe of the Ghost and God Era. The later Gu demon clan was also perfected and formed based on the ancestor's secret technique of life cocoon... It can be said that,
Without the ancestors, there would be no current Gu insect family."
When Tiancan said this, he raised his head and met the eyes of Long Sheng. He immediately realized something and said with a smile: "It will be said soon."
Tiancan quickly spoke faster.
"After the First Ancestor researched the method of overcoming the tribulation, his prestige reached its peak. At that time, there was still some time before the Great Tribulation of the Era. The First Ancestor didn't know what kind of research he should do. At this time, a rumor reached his ears."
"It is rumored that the ancestor was born by God's will and led the ghost and insect clan through the catastrophe of the era."
"Originally, the ancestor didn't pay much attention to this rumor, but later it became more and more exaggerated and the influence became bigger and bigger. In desperation, the ancestor began to investigate the matter in order to calm the development of the situation. Finally, it was discovered that the incident was first reported by
It was spread by a ghost bug who was the same age as him but was not doing well in life."
"The ancestor found this ghost insect and asked the other party why he did this. The other party gave an answer that the ancestor did not expect."
Tiancan paused here for a moment, then slowly said: "He said that when the ancestor was studying how ghost insects survived the great tribulation of the era, he was studying the ancestor. Later, he discovered that the ancestor was born in the same ghost cave in the same year.
, and then he followed this clue and found that the ghost insects born in the same ghost cave in this year are generally smarter than the ghost insects born in other ghost caves in other years. Some ghost insects are even as smart as their ancestors, but
, some ghost bugs died on the way, some ghost bugs took the wrong path and were lost to the public, some ghost bugs took the right path, but were a step too slow and could only become middle-level and high-level people.
A ghost insect as smart as his ancestor reached the end and achieved the same achievements as him."
"The ghost insect gave his research information to the ancestor. The ancestor didn't believe it at first, but after reading the information, he began to be doubtful. After confirming the authenticity of the information, it attracted the ancestor's great attention. The ancestor specialized in research
I found the ghost cave where I was born, and naturally found nothing. After all, the ghost insects born in this ghost cave later were not as smart as they were that year."
"After the ancestor confirmed it, when he went to look for the ghost insect, he found that the ghost insect was actually dead."
"After the ancestor's research, he confirmed that the other party died due to exhaustion of his source and was not a murder. The ancestor suddenly discovered that this ghost insect was not included in these documents. The ancestor personally checked and found that this ghost insect was also among the very smart ones at that time.
One of them, but what he studies is not the method of overcoming the catastrophe that the ghost insect clan is most concerned about, but why their group of ghost insects are so smart. This ghost insect is the representative who took the wrong path and ended up disappearing from the public."
"It's just that he spent his whole life, and when his source was about to be exhausted, he still couldn't produce any research results, so he came up with this method of using rumors to lure the ancestor there and transfer the research to the ancestor to arouse the interest of the ancestor.
Let the founder continue his research after his death."
"As he wished, the ancestor was very interested in this, so he began research in this area."
"The research on the ancestors is different from that of the ghost insect. The ancestors are not limited to the individuals born in that ghost cave that year. Instead, they extend the timeline and search from the family history to see if similar things have happened in history."
"Although there is not only one ghost insect passed down in the clan history, but there are thousands of them in the entire clan, but because the clan history of the ghost insect clan is only passed down orally, the information the ancestors received was not as expected.
There are many, and there are many errors and omissions in the details of many family histories, and some are even contradictory."
"It was also because of this that the founder came up with the idea of creating a secret collection of family history."
"However, at that time, the focus of the entire ghost insect clan was on surviving the great catastrophe of the era, so the founder could only make a small, private one for his own use first."
"After hundreds of years of research, the ancestor finally discovered the clues."
"About every 30,000 years, a group of smarter ghost insects will appear in the ghost insect clan. There are always some smart ones among them who have great influence and have left detailed records in the clan history."
At this point, Tiancan was about to continue talking when Long Sheng interrupted him.
"Wait a minute, 30,000 years. How long is the history of your ghost insect clan?"
Tiancan was stunned for a moment, then answered: "The entire era of ghosts and gods is about 30 million years old, and the history of the ghost and insect clan is also about 30 million years old."
Long Sheng frowned and asked: "Thirty million years, are you sure that the inheritance method of your clan's history is oral transmission? Can this inheritance method carry the volume of thirty million years?"
After Tiancan heard this, he showed a look of surprise and explained in embarrassment: "I'm sorry, I may have used inappropriate words and did not explain clearly. The oral tradition of the Ghost and Insect clan is different from the oral tradition of your human clan.
Oral transmission is a secret technique, similar to the divine secret technique of your human race. You can pass on the memories you want to pass on through oral transmission. This is a common inheritance method among all ghost clans. Of course,
There are many restrictions. After being passed down by word of mouth, you will remember these memories, and the other party will carry these memories. They can only be passed on once. Moreover, the more memories you pass on, the heavier the burden will be. For many ghosts, after passing on the pass, it will be directly consumed.
Because of this, in the middle and late period of the Ghost Era, many ghost tribes who passed down their family history would delete their family history and keep their own records as streamlined as possible to reduce the burden of inheritance. Even so, in the
There are still very few ghosts who can survive the inheritance."
But in order to pass on the family history, they will still choose to sacrifice themselves and pass on the family history.
Long Sheng said in surprise: "Apart from this secret technique, do all the ghost clans have no other inheritance methods?"
Tiancan shook his head and said: "The era of ghosts and gods is different from our era. In that era, ghosts and gods were all bodies and had no entities. All communication used were divine thoughts. The efficiency of exchanging information was much higher than talking. After the death of ghosts and gods, they can also
Nothing will be left behind. Resources containing the characteristics of ghosts and gods are very rare and have great uses. They cannot be used exclusively to record information. In addition, the influence of ghosts on physical objects is very limited. Therefore, no book jade was invented in that era.
For things like Jane, all the inheritance is based on the ghost clan itself as the carrier."
Long Sheng suddenly said: "No wonder, the Era of Ghosts and Gods has left so few traces, and the demon clan has so little understanding of the Era of Ghosts and Gods. That's it."
Many ghosts and gods died during the great catastrophe of the Era of Ghosts and Gods, and most of the remaining ghosts and gods formed a clan of ghosts and gods.
After all, there are only a few races like the Gu insect clan and the Lingzhi clan that are still passed down in the world after three epochs.
Many demon clans rose up in this era.
Since there are no items recorded from the previous era, the understanding of the previous era is naturally very scarce.
The Era of Ghosts and Gods also seems very mysterious.
Few "people" know.
Long Sheng nodded and signaled: "Continue."
Tiancan gave Long Sheng a helpless look, recalled what he had just said, brewed his emotions for a while, and then spoke again: "After the ancestor made this discovery, he expanded the scope to other ghost tribes, and through communication, discovered that they
There is a similar pattern, but the time of occurrence is different. The ancestor discovered the pattern through research, found the ghost clan that happened that year, and then quietly observed, finally found the corresponding ghost cave, and found a clue. "
Having said this, Tiancan paused, held his breath, and said softly: "The ancestor finally sent out the traces of the dragon. It was also at this moment that the ancestor finally confirmed the existence of this mastermind who has been behind the entire era of ghosts and gods."
"Wait a minute," Long Sheng interrupted Tiancan again: "Era of Ghosts and Gods, after all, it carries the word "divine". From the beginning to the end, you don't know the existence of Shenlong?"
Tiancan took a deep breath, nodded heavily, and said with certainty: "According to family history records, before the ancestor discovered the traces of the divine dragon, we did not discover the existence of the divine dragon from beginning to end. Of course, because the family history of the Insect Wood Era was ruined
, We are not sure whether there are relevant records in the clan history of the Insect Wood Era, but what can be confirmed is that in the Ghost and God Era, before the ancestors discovered the traces of the divine dragon, there were no records related to the divine dragon in the clan history of each ghost clan."
After hearing this, Long Sheng frowned and said in confusion: "How come Shenlong's style of doing things in the era of ghosts and gods is completely different from this era?"
In this era, it seems that every elder and elite of the demon clan knows about the existence of Shenlong.
There are even dragons in the ocean.
Shenlong is also known as the Dragon Ancestor, and is said to be the true god who created the dragon clan.
The existence of the demon ape does not seem to be secret.
However, they all appeared together with the demons.
According to legend, he is the ancestor of the demon clan and the great demon god who created the demon world.
However, the number of people who know that the two real people exist, or even are the masterminds behind the scenes, is very small.
However, it is not as secretive as the Age of Ghosts and Gods.
It was not until the end of the Era that the traces were discovered by "people" who were interested.
Dragon Saint asked again: "Where is the demon ape? Apart from Shenlong, did your ancestors find any traces of the demon ape?"
Tiancan looked at Long Sheng helplessly.
"I found it, but this is the story behind it. Don't worry, it will be told soon. Let's continue it in the original order, okay?"
Long Sheng sensed the slightly dissatisfied gazes of the other Four Saints on him. He cupped his hands apologetically and said to Tian Can: "I'm sorry, I'm impatient...Mr. Tian Can, please continue."
