Alchemy Emperor of the Divine Dao

Chapter 4247: Ge Qianqiu

Chapter 4247: Ge Qianqiu

?

Everything in the world could develop consciousness.

The simplest example was Ancestral King Pan Shi. This ruler of heaven and earth was only a stubborn rock at the very beginning, yet unexpectedly developed consciousness, advancing step by step to become the strongest, suppressing an era.

And in the case of the Natural-born Stone Spirit, it was already standing at the pinnacle of the world from the very beginning. It was an ultimate material comparable to Origin Gold, so how awesome was it?

Once this kind of treasure developed consciousness, its starting point would be Saint Tier.

In history, there had indeed been examples of Natural-born Stone Spirit being intelligent and traveling the world. They were countless times more powerful than ordinary Saints, and could be called Pseudo-Emperors!

In an era when there was no Emperor in the world, if the Natural-born Stone Spirit was to commit evil, the world would be in chaos, and if they were to commit good, the world would be peaceful. Of course, if there was a Great Emperor in the world, then the Natural-born Stone Spirit could only be said to be born at the wrong time. No matter how awesome the Pseudo- Emperor was, it could not possibly match the Great Emperor.

However, though the Natural-born Stone Spirit was so awesome, there had never been any precedent of becoming Emperor.

-The most ordinary people in the world could attain Dao, and even a rock could attain Dao, but the Natural-born Stone Spirit, who had stood at the pinnacle of the world from the very beginning, could not. One could not help but sigh at the wonders of creation of the heavens.

Perhaps, without experiencing the process of advancing from ordinary to the pinnacle, one would not be able to break through to that highest position.

He ignored this for the moment. The problem was, if this Natural-born Stone Spirit really developed consciousness, then it would be a Pseudo-Emperor!

How awesome was a Pseudo-Emperor?

Just think of Buddha Doga. He had practically killed all the Saints in the world.

Ling Han instantly had the thought of leaving. It was not appropriate to stay here for too long. Who knew if that Natural-born Stone Spirit had just developed consciousness, and was still here.

Hold on.

He looked at the outer shell of the Natural-born Stone Spirit that had been shed. Although it no longer had the Stone Spirit, this outer shell should still be quite extraordinary.

'I'll take it!'

Ling Han walked forwards, planning to collect this. Even if it was inferior to the ultimate ingredients, it was still indescribably precious.

Since he had entered into a mountain of treasure, how could he return empty-handed?

"Sigh!" A sigh suddenly rang out, and reverberated lightly by Ling Han's ear.

This voice was very soft, but Ling Han's hair stood on end.

F***, whatever he feared would come true!

He slowly turned around, and saw that an old man had appeared behind him at some point in time. He was a little too ordinary, and belonged to the category that could be found in large numbers on the streets, but how could such an old grandpa possibly appear here?

"Senior, sorry for disturbing you!" Ling Han said solemnly. At the same time, he was prepared to use the ley lines to escape at any time.

"Young man, don't be nervous. This old man won't eat you." The old man coughed, and even his body was trembling. He was like a dying candle in the wind, and it was possible that his flame of life would be extinguished at any moment.

Ling Han bared his teeth in a grin, but his heart was beating like a drum. As if he would believe him.

He wasn't sure where this old man came from. Could it be that he had come for the Natural- born Stone Spirit?

"How should I address Senior?" he asked.

The old man couldn't help but laugh, "You're trying to dig out my bottom line? Heh, whatever, my surname is Ge, and my given name is Qianqiu."

"Good name, your merit will last to benefit generations, senior is generous." Ling Han immediately bootlicked.

Ge Qianqiu laughed loudly, but as if his injuries were affected or something, he coughed again, "Young man, you really have a sweet tongue. All right, come and tell me, what time is it now?"

Yi, it can't be that you have been staying here all this while, so you don't know what year this is, right?

A thought flashed in Ling Han's head, and he said, "Senior, there is no uniform chronological method in the universe, so I don't know how to describe it either."

"Hehe, that's right." Ge Qianqiu slapped his forehead, and said with a smile, "Look at this old man, I've really become senile. Then, what's the name of the latest Ancestral King?"

"I don't know." Ling Han shook his head, and seeing the puzzled look on Ge Qianqiu's face, he hurriedly said, "Ten million years ago, it is suspected that an Ancestral King ascended Dao, but a great turmoil happened, and history was erased. Thus, even the origins of that Ancestral King are unknown to anyone."

Ge Qianqiu couldn't help but show a hint of anger in his expression, and even humphed heavily, "Those old b@stards, as expected, are still not willing to behave themselves!"

A thought flashed in Ling Han's head. It seemed like this Uncle Ge knew the inside story!

He was extremely curious, and couldn't help but ask, "Senior, do you know the reason for this unrest?"

"Brat, have you always been so curious?" Ge Qianqiu asked with a smile.

"I saw Senior's friendliness, so I mustered up the courage to ask a few more questions," Ling Han said. When he wanted to anger someone, he could drive them crazy, but when he was sweet-talking, he could also make people happy.

Ge Qianqiu laughed, "You are too weak now, and there are some things that are not suitable for you to know. It would only be detrimental to you."

To be able to say such words, it meant that the old man should be a reasonable person.

Ling Han's heart calmed slightly, and he mustered up the courage to ask, "Why is Senior

here?"

"You actually want to ask, where did this Natural-born Stone Spirit go?" Ge Qianqiu

countered.

Er... the older one was, the wiser they were.

Ling Han smiled, "As for that, I am indeed a little curious."

Ge Qianqiu shook his head, "When this old man came here, the Natural-born Stone Spirit was already gone. I don't know if it was because it had gained consciousness, or if it had been refined into a doppelganger by another."

Ling Han was surprised. This old man should have been here for a very, very long time. Then, the Natural-born Stone Spirit should have disappeared a very, very long time ago. It was very

likely tens of millions of years ago.

However, could the old man live for so long?

As if sensing Ling Han's confusion, Ge Qianqiu said with a smile, "There is a mysterious thing called the Primordial Source Clay. If one is sealed within, the passing of life would be halted. Thus, after a long slumber, the world would have changed."

Ling Han immediately thought of the little azure dragon. He was the youngest son of the True Dragon, and if he really counted, how old would he be? He should have long since turned into dust, but now, he was pretending to be young everywhere, living too vividly. Obviously, the little azure dragon must have been sealed in the Primordial Source Clay all this

while.

However, Ling Han didn't understand. Wasn't it good to live in the present? With his friends and family, wouldn't it be too lonely to sleep for a long time and have no family or friends in the world after ten million years?

What reason was there for him to have to surpass such a long period of time?

Ge Qianqiu asked Ling Han a great many questions, such as whether the True Dragon Abyss had been opened, how the present world was, and whether there were Yin souls invading. His expression was always calm, but when he spoke of the countless corpses of Saints buried in that sea of blood, the old man looked furious, which was very frightening. "Alright, you can leave now. I still have to sleep for a few more years." The old man began to

chase him off.

Just a few years?

Ling Han thought internally. The few years he was talking about was really a few years, but if this Uncle Ge was talking about a few years, could it be tens of thousands of years?

Forget it, let's just leave first.

Since such an elite had already issued the command to leave, how could he possibly refuse? Though the old man looked quite good-tempered, what elite would not have words that had enormous weight, and allow others to bargain with them?

Ling Han was very tactful. After exiting the cave, he used the Star Steps and quickly left.

"So only ten million years have passed," Ge Qianqiu murmured. "Xuan Taiyu, I lost to you ten

million years ago. Logically, I should have died and disappeared with the wind, but the darkness desires to devour the heavens. This old man can only use this damaged body to battle with the heavens and with others. If I can attain Dao, I will avenge you, and our battles for so many years would not be in vain!"
