Our ancestors!
Chen Qingyu couldn't help but say:
Please stop keeping me in suspense.
What exactly was that incredible opportunity?
Hahaha
The Ninth Ancestor laughed loudly, but did not answer. Instead, he asked:
Qingyu, how big do you think this world is exactly?
ah?
Chen Qingyu paused for a moment, then thought carefully before cautiously replying:
It must be extremely large.
After all, you said before that this Desolate Continent is just a remote place, and the continent where the Kings of High Antiquity and the Emperor Yuan were home was thousands of times larger than this Desolate Continent.
And in the world, such continents are not necessarily limited to one place.
You guessed right.
The Ninth Ancestor nodded slightly and sighed:
In fact, this world is vast and boundless, much larger than you can imagine.
Between heaven and earth, there are Three Thousand Dao Domains!
Moreover, this number of three thousand is a figurative number; the true number is unknown to anyone.
The Desolate Continent we are in is merely a remote and small place within the Myriad Dharma Dao Domain, one of the Three Thousand Dao Domains.
Within the Myriad Dharma Dao Domain alone, there are countless giant continents similar to the homelands of the Kings of High Antiquity.
We Desolate Continent are nothing more than frogs in a well, only able to see the sky from the bottom of a well. Even though we know the world is infinite, we are still confined to a corner and can hardly see the scenery outside the well.
Upon hearing this, Chen Qingyu was greatly surprised:
Three Thousand Dao Domains?
This world is actually this vast?
He had learned from his Ninth Ancestor about the existence of the Kings of High Antiquity' homelands, and even then he was already amazed by the vastness of the world.
But unexpectedly:
Even though it was the homeland of the Kings of High Antiquity, it was but a drop in the ocean, extremely insignificant in the grand scheme of things.
well
The Ninth Ancestor sighed deeply, his expression complex:
In the Myriad Dharma Dao Domain we reside, many continents are divided by vast oceans, and the outer seas are extremely dangerous. Even if Saint King goes out to sea, he is in danger of perishing.
This has resulted in our Desolate Continent being almost completely isolated from the world for hundreds of thousands of years, forming its own little world.
This is a good thing, but also a bad thing.
Upon hearing this, Chen Qingyu nodded slightly in agreement.
The relative isolation of the Desolate Continent protected it from external invasions, but it also limited the further development of the major powers on the Desolate Continent.
The territory and resources of this Desolate Continent are both limited.
The various Human Race holy lands, the Emperor Yuan Palace, the Sage Evolution Palace, and the four major alien races—so many powerful forces—are all crammed onto this small, Desolate Continent, fighting tooth and nail, resulting in bloodshed.
Oh, right!
Chen Qingyu suddenly thought of something, his expression shifted, and he couldn't help but say:
Didn't you say that Emperor Yuan had nautical charts?
Why didn't he pass down the nautical charts?
If it were Emperor Yuan who passed the sea chart to the Emperor Yuan Palace, all the conflicts would be resolved immediately, and a catastrophe would vanish without a trace.
With the nautical chart, there is a broader prospect for development. Given the Emperor Yuan Palace's domineering and powerful nature, it is unlikely that they would still be willing to remain confined to this small, Desolate Continent.
You're mistaken.
The Ninth Ancestor shook his head and said:
Thirty thousand years ago, Emperor Yuan landed alone in the Eastern Region, causing a sensation. At that time, we all believed that he knew a secret passage, which enabled him to successfully cross the sea.
At that time, he attracted the covetous eyes of all parties, and many disputes broke out around him.
Later, we gradually understood that he had also fled here and ended up here by chance, and had never known any secret passage.
He paused, then gave a self-deprecating laugh:
As for what happened later, after he established the Emperor Yuan Palace, he did indeed leave this Desolate Continent.
But by then, he was already Quasi-Emperor, and the outer seas were no longer too dangerous for him.
The places he could go, the roads he could walk, we may not be able to walk.
If you think about it carefully, the open ocean is ever-changing, so what kind of fixed nautical chart is there? This is just wishful thinking on our part.
Upon hearing this, Chen Qingyu remained silent for a moment before whispering:
Could the opportunity that the Saint King Chenliu spoke of be in the outer sea, or on another continent?
No!
Surprisingly, the Ninth Ancestor shook his head and rejected the idea:
That opportunity was not in the outer sea, nor even in the Myriad Dharma Dao Domain.
ah?
Chen Qingyu was taken aback:
Not in the Myriad Dharma Dao Domain? Where could it be?
In his view, the Myriad Dharma Dao Domain was already unimaginably vast.
As for the Saint King Chenliu, he was merely at the Peak of the Extreme Transformation Realm, a follower of a certain Emperor Venerable. Could he possibly have been fortunate enough to visit other Dao Domains?
Oh
The Ninth Ancestor chuckled softly, raised a finger, pointed upwards, and said mysteriously:
In the sky.
In the sky?
Chen Qingyu was taken aback.
good.
The Ninth Ancestor smiled and said leisurely:
In the infinitely high and distant place, higher than the heavens, lies Boundless Star Sea that transcends the Three Thousand Dao Domains, known as the Void Cosmos!
The essence of the Supreme Sun Star and the Supreme Moon Star, as well as all the stars, large and small, in the universe, all fall into the endless Void Cosmos.
The Void Universe Star Sea can be said to exist both outside and within all Dao Domains.
Although the star formations in the Three Thousand Dao Domains are different, they are all essentially under the same starry sky.
Under normal circumstances, crossing a Dao Domain is extremely difficult, even for Emperor Venerable. However, traveling from one Dao Domain to the Void Cosmos is not so difficult.
Chen Qingyu was deeply shocked after hearing this, and murmured:
Does this mean the Void Universe Star Sea Void Cosmos all the Dao Domains?
Um.
The Ninth Ancestor nodded slightly and said:
You can interpret it that way.
The opportunity that the Saint King Chenliu spoke of has fallen into the Void Cosmos!
He paused for a moment, then gestured:
Take out that map and the command token.
Chen Qingyu responded, then reached out and took out the ancient sheepskin scroll and the dark metal token.
splash
The Ninth Ancestor unfurled the parchment scroll, pointed to the intricate patterns on it, and said in a deep voice:
This thing is actually a star map! It can only function in the Void Cosmos!
Once you reach the Void Cosmos, follow the directions on the star map to reach the place where that opportunity lies.
As he spoke, he raised the dark, heavy token again and instructed:
This thing is a key and a certificate of identity!
Only with this token can you gain recognition and be qualified to enter that place.
Upon hearing this, Chen Qingyu finally couldn't help but say:
Ancestor, you still haven't told me what that place is.
The Ninth Ancestor's expression was solemn, and he said in a deep voice:
The remains of Taihao Star!
What?
Upon hearing this, Chen Qingyu was taken aback and his expression changed.
In that instant, he immediately recalled the eighth sign-in location [ Ancestral Star Remains ] that the Sign-In System had indicated!
So, this is where the system's notification came from!
You provided the starting sign-in rewards for the legendary Zhuang Shisan, featuring Chen Qingyu from the Thirty-Six Heavenly Gang Transformations Zhuang Shisan.
