Chapter 256 The Ancestor of the Human Race

The next moment, a remnant soul floated out of the bead and appeared in front of everyone.

"Seven Army Monument, it's been a long time since I last saw it, hehe."

Dongfang Ji stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the familiar Seven Army Monument, and recalled many military details in his mind, revealing a nostalgic smile.

That's right, he is not only an ancestor of the Dongfang family, but also a general who fought bloody battles in the Seven Armies of the Human Race in his early years, and he had a military career.

"What is this?!" The Human Emperor and his men were surprised. They saw the existence of this remnant soul for the first time.

While looking at the remnant soul, they also looked at Wang Yu, after all, the remnant soul was summoned by him.

"He is a human elder from ancient times." Wang Yu briefly introduced.

He actually didn't know much about Dongfang Ji's specific identity.

He only knew that even if he looked at the heyday of the human race, this Dongfang Ji was one of the top strong men.

The Human Emperor and his men were all shocked.

They had not seen the remnant soul of the Purple Star Emperor left in the Time Tower in the past. Dongfang Ji was the first ancient human they had seen.

Even if it was just a remnant soul, it was enough to attract his attention.

"Hello, senior." The Human Emperor and his men all performed the juniors' salute.

Compared with Dongfang Ji, they could only call themselves juniors.

"Don't be polite. I am just a remnant soul now. I am no longer the same as I was back then." Dongfang Ji shook his head and waved his hand.

"Can you tell me about the human race today? After the Lilong disaster, I don't know anything."

The Human Emperor nodded. He combined ancient books and history books to tell Dongfang Ji about the human race in the period of the universe's wilderness.

In short, it was the word "decline".

The cultivation environment in the universe's wilderness was quite bad. When all the remaining strong men in the ancient times fell, no one in the human race could cultivate to the level of a star envoy.

As a result, the human race fell from the former fourth-level civilization to the most primitive first-level civilization.

There was even a period of time when even the cultivators were almost extinct. There were very few people on the planet who had entered the innate level of cultivation, and they were treated like gods at that time.

Even Wang Yu didn't know much about this period of history.

That was also the weakest stage of the human race. If the insect kites had attacked that year, I'm afraid the human race would really be on the verge of extinction.

Fortunately, the human race gradually re-explored and studied some human relics and integrated a set of cultivation systems suitable for the current environment.

Although the system was still very rough at the time, with only a rough framework, the subsequent cultivation path was not yet complete.

But that was already a good start, and it was also a rebound for the human race.

Later, a strong man fell from the sky, that is, the leader of the Wuzong at that time, Hongguang, rose strongly.

He created the Wuzong, which accommodated the strengths of hundreds of schools and further constructed this cultivation system.

Thus, there were specific cultivation realms such as body forging, blood burning, and qi circulation.

Then, the powerful people such as the Human Emperor also stepped onto the historical stage one after another, establishing the largest empire, sect, and northern barbarian tribe of the human race.

Then came the appearance of Wang Yu, who led the human race out of the wilderness of the universe with these people, arrived at the Half-Circle Star Region, and gradually gained a foothold.

After listening to the Human Emperor's story, Dongfang Ji also had a certain understanding of the human race today.

The flickering soul still had a smile on its face, and slowly said: "It's much better than I expected."

"Oh?" The flag spirit floated out and was a little surprised to see that Dongfang Ji seemed to have anticipated the situation of the human race.

It thought that Dongfang Ji would be a little sad to see the decline of the human race.

Now it seems that it thought too much.

"Back then, the Lilong natural disaster destroyed the world and many civilizations. I think it is a blessing that the human race can still survive. Now there are signs of rising, and such a genius can be born. That's enough." Dongfang Ji smiled.

The genius he mentioned is Wang Yu.

Even the remnant soul of the previous Emperor Ziwei recognized Wang Yu, so he naturally couldn't find fault with Wang Yu.

The Human Emperor stepped forward and bowed, saying: "Senior, the human race is now revitalized, but to restore its former prosperity, we still need your help.

I hope you will stay and help us."

Dongfang Ji stroked his beard, shook his head and sighed.

"Now I don't have much time, and the help I can give you is also quite limited. If you don't give up, I will stay."

The Human Emperor was happy at first, and then asked: "Senior, is there a way to stabilize your soul? We will do our best."

"I know that." Qi Ling took over and said.

"Now the old guy has been relocated to this soul bead. We only need to repair this soul bead to stabilize his residual soul.

And if we can find something to nourish the soul, we can repair the soul body bit by bit. If there is a greater opportunity in the future, we may be able to reshape the body and come back to life!"

Dongfang Ji shook his head and laughed, "You, the flag spirit, do know a lot, but what you said is easier said than done.

If it was the heyday of the Dongfang family in the past, they could find something to nourish my soul, but now..."

He didn't say anything more, but it was obvious that with the current strength of the human race, there was nothing to repair his soul.

"You can't say that. If the human race rises again in the future, it may not be impossible. You still have hope, old man." Qi Ling said.

Dongfang Ji smiled and didn't say much.

Perhaps the human race will have the opportunity to reappear in the heyday of the past, but by then, I'm afraid that his remnant soul will have already gone with the wind.

But he didn't care about it. He was not obsessed with life, nor was he afraid of death.

Let everything go with the flow.

It's not bad to make some contributions to the human race in the last time.

Afterwards, Wang Yu put the soul bead into the alien space where the time tower is located.

The soil in this space can store a large number of battlefield resentful spirits, and it can also maintain Dongfang Ji's remnant soul to the maximum extent.

Buy enough time for the human race to repair Dongfang Ji's soul bead.

"I didn't expect that this time tower is not only still there, but you also got it." Dongfang Ji was brought to the alternate dimension, and recognized the standing time tower at first sight.

His eyes were gentle, with a bit of relief.

"This can be said to be the last masterpiece of the human race back then. With the help of the power of the time tower, the development of the human race can indeed be accelerated a lot."

Obviously, this ancient human ancestor was quite clear about the role and effect of this time tower.

"And this piece of soil." Dongfang Ji's expression was complicated. The soil once again evoked a lot of his memories. The great war that year was the burial place of a large number of human race warriors.

"Who created this alternate dimension and moved the battlefield here?

With such a clairvoyant ability, could it be that your majesty did it himself!"

He looked at Wang Yu standing on the stone road, looking for an answer.

The owner of the space now is the young man in front of him.

Wang Yu nodded, without hiding anything, and said truthfully: "I was guided to come here before, and I did see a remnant soul of Emperor Ziwei on the top of the Time Tower."

Dongfang Ji looked as if he really did, and then asked: "So, His Majesty's inheritance is also in you?"

Wang Yu hesitated a little in his heart, he was hesitating whether to tell the truth to the former human ancestor in front of him.

Today's first meeting, he didn't know much about Dongfang Ji, even if the other party was just a remnant soul, but he also gave him a sense of unfathomable.

Dongfang Ji smiled slightly, knowing Wang Yu's concerns.

"Don't worry, since the inheritance left by His Majesty chose you, no one can take it away, but it is right to be cautious, I asked too much."

In the next few days, Wang Yu asked Dongfang Ji about many things about the human race in the past in the Time Tower.

About cultivation, about the development of the human race, about Lilong, etc.

He had too many confusions and puzzles, all of which were answered by this human ancestor.

Soon, the Human Emperor, the Divine Witch and several others also began to put down their work and came to the Time Tower to listen to what Dongfang Ji said. Every time the other party said a few words, they could benefit a lot.

Many problems were solved.

The Divine Witch was even more excited and slapped his thigh, because Dongfang Ji was very proficient in the art of runes when he was alive, just like the level of the ancestor.

The current mastery of the rune art of the human race is not even one-tenth of that of the other party.

His generous teaching can make the current research of the rune art of the human race soar like a cheat.

And the rune art is the current cornerstone of the human race's development, and all kinds of things derived from the rune art will become the greatest reliance of the human race.

Just like this dungeon, without the cooperation of the rune formation, it cannot be built at all.

The sixth-level rune formation is currently the ceiling-level formation that the human race can create.

But now it can be foreseen that with the help of Dongfang Ji, the ancestor of the human race, the sixth-level rune will soon become a thing of the past, and it won't be long before stronger runes will come out!

"The human race is really going to rise."

After a while, the witch who walked out of the Time Tower and returned to the dungeon murmured, his expression was both excited and inexplicably unreal.

Zizhu, the Pope and others also had similar expressions.

The human emperor looked calmer, but his heart was also not calm.

Dongfang Ji was like a huge treasure of the human race, and it could not be dug out no matter how hard he tried.

Even the development of the human race for thousands of years seemed insignificant in front of this huge treasure.

Just the preaching during this period was enough to make the human race advance a lot on the road of development.

They didn't know how far Dongfang Ji could eventually lead the human race. All they had to do was to try their best to dig this treasure mountain and lead the human race to rise as much as possible.

Undoubtedly, the biggest gain this time was the appearance of Dongfang Ji. In comparison, putting together the Seven Army Monuments became less important.

Because this ancestor of the human race has many complete cultivation methods from ancient times, as well as secret magic and even the magical powers of the Dongfang family!

In comparison, the seven sets of starry sky cultivation methods on the Seven Army Monuments all seem inferior.

"No matter what, we must find a way to repair the soul bead of the predecessor in the future." said the Human Emperor.

The rest of the people nodded.

"The priority of this task should be as important as the development of the human race." The Pope agreed.

"That's right!"

"No more talking, call that guy, Tian Song, and Zi Liu, the elites in the rune world, I'm going to start to innovate. What I studied before was all bullshit. This time, I must make a seventh-level rune!" The witch said happily.

This time he gained the most. In terms of rune art, it seemed that the door to a new world was opened.

Wang Yu continued to stay in the Time Tower to practice, and Dongfang Ji accompanied him. In just a month, he was amazed at Wang Yu's practice speed.

There was a visible improvement in three to five days, as if there was no bottleneck period. Occasionally, he would raise a few confusions in practice to him, and after enlightenment, he would quickly devote himself to the next stage of practice.

He tried to teach some ancient spiritual secrets, but Wang Yu easily mastered them.

This kind of talent really opened his eyes.

He couldn't help but recall the Dongfang family in the past. It seemed that there had never been such a great man in the generations.

"It's really amazing"

Dongfang Ji looked at Wang Yu, who was sitting cross-legged and immersed in cultivation, with deep appreciation in his eyes.

He had completely understood why it was Wang Yu who mastered this alien space, met the remnant soul of Emperor Ziwei, and finally got the recognition of the emperor and obtained the supreme inheritance.

With such talent, who else can there be besides Wang Yu?

Two years in the outside world and eight years in the tower.

Wang Yu was focused on comprehending another giant painting, and his Xuan Gong broke through to the fourth step!

The fourth cosmic force entered his body, and at the same time, with the opportunity of this breakthrough, Wang Yu also widened his bloodline again.

Under the Time Tower, Dongfang Ji stood with his hands behind his back, looking up at Wang Yu who was bathed in the energy of the heavenly punishment, and waited quietly.

The violent roar of the heavenly punishment shook the earth, as if it was going to collapse this alien space.

Wang Yu's figure was gradually submerged in the energy of the heavenly punishment. The violent cosmic energy isolated everything, and no one could cover it with perception.

"It's just to obtain the fourth cosmic power. The power of this heavenly punishment is really a bit big?" Dongfang Ji looked carefully for a while and couldn't help frowning.

His soul flickered under this huge energy of heavenly punishment, and the soul bead below emitted a faint light, continuously protecting his soul.

He knew very well that such a powerful heavenly punishment would not come under normal promotion.

"Even if it is the five cosmic powers, stepping into the ranks of the Great Star Envoy, it is only this kind of heavenly power."

Just when he was a little worried about Wang Yu, the energy of the heavenly punishment was finally exhausted and began to gradually dissipate.

Wang Yu's figure reappeared, and seeing this, Dongfang Ji's locked brows were relieved.

In the air, Wang Yu's body was covered with a thick layer of earth dragon turtle scales. He withstood the heavenly punishment and disappeared, and he still looked unharmed!

In eight years, he had already fully developed the bloodline ability of the dragon turtle.

Although the interface was still the third-level physical enhancement and the third-level earth dragon turtle scales, it was much stronger than when he first obtained the dragon turtle bloodline.

Now the superposition of the two has enabled him to withstand the power of the heavenly punishment comparable to the promotion of the Great Star Envoy without injury.

After removing the steaming earth dragon turtle scales on his body, Wang Yu looked up at the gradually disappearing haze and energy vortex, and couldn't help grinning.

Previously, he spared no effort to choose to improve his own defense hardness, and he wanted this result now!
