Chapter 26 The Immortal Elder

"I have a bad feeling." Cheng Jinyang said suddenly.

Following the direction guided by the vision, Cheng Jinyang encountered the vision several more times, and each time the figure pointed to a different position.

So everyone finally confirmed that this vision was guiding everyone forward.

For a moment, everyone looked at Miss Wang with vague, unexplainable fear.

Cheng Jinyang:?

Wait, it seems that I was the first to guess that Vision was guiding the direction, right?

Forget it, Wanrou is one of my own, so praising her means praising me.

Let's not worry about who should be credited. As everyone gradually deepened, the vision Cheng Jinyang saw became clearer and clearer.

It was a vague figure, wearing a translucent robe, standing next to a throne made of huge rocks, with his arms pointing calmly in a certain direction. There were countless light balls around him that were changing, sometimes expanding, sometimes shrinking.

Going deeper, Cheng Jinyang gradually saw clearly that the light balls in the vision were actually clusters of fireballs surging on the surface, just like stars.

Could it be Star Fire?

After telling everyone about the situation, Jiang Jiu slapped his thigh and shouted:

"What kind of bad premonition is this? If there are star fires everywhere, wouldn't everyone be able to get a lot of bargains?"

Maybe I can also get some Heavenly Emperor's Fire to dang... Although she didn't say it explicitly, everyone could see the desire in her eyes.

"Although I have no interest in becoming a monster, I also want to get a star fire to study." The princess sister joked.

"Don't be stupid." Wang Wanrou said coldly, "If these Star Fires can be obtained casually, then so many Heavenly Emperors came here before, why didn't they distribute Star Fires and reward their cronies after they returned?"

"Perhaps the Emperor of Heaven has benefited from it, but only for herself." Su Lili guessed.

Wang Wanrou glanced at Su Lili, but surprisingly she did not continue to mock and refute.

Ye Ru and others saw this, and their thoughts changed slightly.

Worried that Emperor Ziwei behind them might already be on their way, everyone could only speed up.

Finally, about three or four hours later, everyone arrived at a strange ruins:

It was a sunken basin on the island. A large number of strange rocks stood in the basin, a bit like the Easter Island stone statues that Cheng Jinyang had seen in the documentary.

It's just that each stone statue has strange patterns outlined with strange lines. It looks like it's just a superposition of geometric figures, but if you look carefully, you will feel an unusual headache.

Because the arrangement of these patterns has far exceeded the limit of human understanding. Cheng Jinyang even had an understanding that he didn't know the source of:

Just like an ant that cannot understand three dimensions, when it tries to climb up or down, in its consciousness it is just a superposition of routes from one plane to another. Therefore, once the three-dimensional route becomes complicated, the ant can easily be fooled.

Dizziness, or even headache, if it really has cranial nerves and pain sensation.

And these patterns are not patterns carved on the two-dimensional plane of the stone, but a collection of higher-dimensional lines.

Strange lights are shed from the sky. They also have no visible color. They are strange lights, or the human visual nerve cannot distinguish the wavelengths in them. They are projected from the layers of fog, and each boulder is

Accurately shrouded in it.

So everyone can see that the bases of the boulders are basically hexagonal, or quasi-hexagonal... after all, they are not carved very accurately.

Countless bright and dark light balls are scattered in the sky around these giant stone thrones. If you look closer, you can see that each light ball is actually a star, and their surfaces are surging with torrents of energy generated by fusion.

The outer layer is a halo composed of solar wind, and things similar to solar prominences erupt from the surface from time to time.

Cheng Jinyang guessed that these star fires were actually just the projection of each star, otherwise he would not be able to feel the heat at close range.

"Don't touch." Suddenly a voice sounded.

From the top of a certain giant stone throne, an object slowly floated down. It looked like a figure wearing translucent clothes, which reminded Cheng Jinyang of the dementors in the Harry Potter series.

Jiang Jiu behind him was planning to catch a ball of light quietly, but he was caught by the other party and couldn't help but froze in embarrassment.

"Your body can't bear its transformation yet." The figure continued, "Strength comes step by step, and knowledge... of course is the same."

"Excuse me." Su Lili said cautiously, "Who are you?"

"I am the projection of some great existence that you cannot understand." The other party replied, "The name...some people call me 'The Ancient One', some people call me 'The Eternal One', you can call me whatever you want."

Everyone was in awe.

These two names reveal two meanings:

The Ancient One means that the other party has existed since the ancient times long, long ago, and may even be older than the history of human beings on this planet.

Immortal means that the other party is probably immortal, or as the other party said, it is the projection of some incomprehensible great existence. As long as the main body does not perish, its shadow will naturally last forever.

Seeing that everyone was silent, Cheng Jinyang suggested: "Anyway, the name is just a code name. How about we combine the two and call you the 'Immortal Elder'?"

The immortal elder did not answer, but continued to stay where he was.

"Excuse me, elder." Wang Wanrou asked lightly, "What is your purpose here?"

As expected of Miss Wang, the first question is so sharp...

Just as Cheng Jinyang was thinking this, he heard the immortal elder reply:

"I'm here to guard the gate and greet guests who want to pass through the gate."

It pointed its hand toward the back, and in the center surrounded by the huge stone thrones, everyone saw a silver arch that seemed to be squeezed out from the space between the huge stone thrones like toothpaste.

"What's in that door?" Wang Wanrou continued to ask.

"Knowledge," replied the immortal elder.

"Knowledge?" Wang Wanrou raised her eyebrows.

"Knowledge is my lord, and my lord is knowledge." The immortal elder replied, "It is the collection of all information. All the information generated in the entire universe is part of its body."

"Interesting." Wang Wanrou smiled.

"I also have a question." The princess sister said aloud, with a very solemn look on her face.

Like Wang Wanrou, she also instantly understood the true meaning of "the collection of all information". If what the other party said was true, then its essence would be the same as a god.

"Excuse me..." she asked cautiously, "What are the essences of star beasts, supernatural powers and demons?"

The immortal elder did not answer "yes" or "no" directly, but simply said:

"Star beasts are used to deal with garbage. Superpowers are one of the garbage. Demons are an evolutionary direction for you humans."

At this point, its profound voice paused and said:

"Someone has asked this question before you."

"Can you tell me who it is?" Sister Princess asked in a trembling voice, but she didn't know the answer in her heart.

The immortal elder did not answer, but looked at Cheng Jinyang.

Then Cheng Jinyang suddenly realized:

It's mother.

Xie Guyan, who returned to the human world and turned himself into a human.
