Saint Emperor Devourer of Heaven

Jun Wuxie arrived before the small village and saw figures moving about, busily working.

Among these figures were children, teenagers, young adults, middle-aged, and elderly people.

He dispersed his divine sense to scan, but found that his divine sense could not enter the village and was blocked outside.

This further illustrated the extraordinary nature of this village.

From afar, the people in the village seemed to have noticed strangers approaching.

Immediately, the village alarm bells rang loudly.

Soon, dozens of people came to the village entrance. Standing in front were young adults, followed by middle-aged and elderly people, and finally women and children.

They all looked at Jun Wuxie, who was getting closer and closer to the village, with vigilant eyes.

Gradually, a hint of surprise appeared on their faces.

"It doesn't seem like someone from Mang Village…"

Said a young man standing at the forefront.

"Indeed, it is not. Mang Village doesn't have this person, and his attire is also different.

Could he be an outsider?"

An elderly man in the village murmured to himself.

He recalled the words passed down from generation to generation by his ancestors, saying that in some future era, people from the outside world would come to this world.

At that time, fortune and disaster would be uncertain.

"Young man, please stop. Apricot Blossom Village declines visits from outsiders."

An old man with white hair and beard pushed through the crowd and walked to the front.

"Senior, I have no malicious intent in coming here.

Senior's guess earlier was correct. I am indeed an outsider.

There is a passage between your world and ours.

This time, our world has opened the ultimate secret realm for us to train, and it is your world.

Now, a large number of outsiders like me have entered this world."

"How can this old man believe that you have no malicious intent?"

The old man walked out of the village and came to the entrance. His aura was not weak, but rather very strong.

When the people in this village stayed inside the village, Jun Wuxie's divine sense could not reach them, so he couldn't see anything.

At this moment, the old man walked out of the village, and he could see the old man's realm and state at a glance, and he couldn't help but feel surprised.

This old man's realm has reached the True God Realm.

He looks very old, like someone in their seventies, but in fact, there are not many traces of time on the wheel of life in his body, only a few hundred.

That is to say, the old man's actual age is only a few hundred years old.

Even if the order of heaven and earth here is strong and the lifespan of cultivators in the Divine Realm is severely restricted, it will not be so exaggerated.

Obviously, there is something strange.

"Please forgive this junior for being presumptuous, may I ask senior, is there a bloodline problem, or is there an unresolved problem in senior's body?"

The old man was shocked when he heard this, "How do you know?"

He was uneasy and suspicious.

The problem of his village, in this world, as long as they know them, they understand what's going on.

But how would outsiders know? Could it be that they really colluded with Mang Village to come here to make trouble?

"Naturally, I can see it. With this junior's divine sense, I can easily see senior's state.

Senior's cultivation has reached the True God Realm, and there are only a few hundred years of traces on the wheel of life in his body.

Only a few hundred years old, but so old, withering blood, and most of his life has already passed.

This is not normal in itself.

Even if the order of this world is strong and the suppression of lifespan is severe, with the vitality of the True God Realm, how can he not survive for thousands of years without any problems, and even reach ten thousand years of life?

Senior, your lifespan is only a few tenths of a normal lifespan."

"You are right, there is indeed a big problem with this old man's body."

The old man did not deny it, and even let out a slight sigh.

"Senior, can you please invite this junior to sit in the village?

When I entered this world, I was guided to this area by the order of Heaven. Perhaps your village is the starting point for this junior's training."

The old man was silent.

"Village Chief, I don't think he looks like a bad person. Why don't we let him in?"

Someone said in a low voice behind the old man.

The village chief nodded, and then made a gesture of invitation.

There are many True God powerhouses in the village. If this person has ulterior motives, he alone will not pose any threat.

Jun Wuxie smiled slightly, stepped forward, and entered the village.

After arriving in the village, his divine sense would not be blocked, and he immediately scanned everyone here.

He couldn't help but be startled.

What's going on with Apricot Blossom Village?

The young people are relatively young, so there is no need to mention it, but the middle-aged people have only a few dozen traces of time in their bodies.

That is to say, their real age is only a few decades old, but they already have a middle-aged appearance.

Their cultivation levels are not low, most of them are True God Realm powerhouses, and a small part are Demigods.

At this realm, a few decades old should be very young, only considered as the younger generation.

"Young man, you have come from afar, please come this way."

The village chief's attitude changed a lot after agreeing to let him into the village. He was very polite and gentle.

He followed the old village chief and others towards the village, and saw a stone tablet in the depths of the village from afar.

The stone tablet was very old, carved from bluestone, and covered with traces of time.

"That is our village's ancestral tablet."

The old village chief saw that he showed a different look when he looked at the bluestone ancient tablet, and couldn't help but explain.

"Senior, this junior would like to ask a question presumptuously, are you inherited from the Immortal Ancient Era?"

"How do you know?"

The old village chief was surprised again, and the other people in the village who were traveling with him were also surprised.

How does this outsider know so much? He just arrived in this world.

"That's right, our ancestors were indeed people from the Immortal Ancient Era. In that era, we were a large clan, but later we declined and almost became extinct.

By the end of the Immortal Ancient Era, our ancestors died in battle, and the powerhouses of our clan were almost completely lost. Our days were extremely difficult, and we survived until the early days of the God Ancient Era. The number of people in the entire clan was sharply reduced by more than 90%, and we were on the verge of destruction.

We had no choice but to flee and hide. In the end, we don't know what happened, the world changed, and we have been living here ever since.

Little friend said before that there is a passage between your world and our world.

What this old man wants to ask is, which world is little friend's world?"

"Just a Saint Spirit World. Although it is many times more vast than the world you live in, the order of heaven and earth and the quality of heaven and earth's vitality are far different."

When the old village chief and the others in the village heard this, they couldn't help but show a disappointed look.

Jun Wuxie's gaze was still fixed on the bluestone ancient tablet.

To be precise, it was a mark engraved on the bluestone ancient tablet, which was somewhat similar to the shape of a flower, but not entirely.

"Senior, is the pattern on the ancestral tablet your clan emblem?"

"Yes."

The old village chief nodded.

Jun Wuxie was stunned and stared at the Apricot Blossom Village's clan emblem for a long time until the old village chief called him back to his senses.

"Little friend, please come this way."

The old village chief felt a little strange in his heart. He didn't know why this young outsider would show such an expression and have such an abnormal reaction when he saw the clan emblem.

They led Jun Wuxie all the way to the village's council hall, invited him to sit down, and served tea.

The tea used was of very high quality, actually of the second grade of God, and had the effect of calming the mind.

This surprised Jun Wuxie very much.

It seemed that for Apricot Blossom Village, divine resources were readily available. For example, the corn planted in front of the village was a divine-grade grain of the first grade of God.

"Senior, let's talk about the problems that exist in your bodies, I will find a way to solve them for you."

The old village chief, who was about to drink tea after picking up the teacup, trembled and looked at him in shock.

"Little friend, don't joke, this matter is not something you can solve.

Back then, our surviving ancient ancestors had the power to reach the sky and the earth, and exhausted their lives, but they never completely solved it, and still left hidden dangers, which have been passed down to this day.

This is a nightmare and curse that surrounds everyone in our Apricot Blossom Village!"

The old village chief put down the teacup and let out a helpless sigh, his voice a little sad.

The others in the village were also like this, with a little sadness in their expressions.

"Besides, although we invited little friend into the village, we still have difficulty distinguishing whether little friend is an enemy or a friend.

How can we tell you everything?

What we can tell little friend is only what everyone in this world knows."

"I have no malice towards you, on the contrary, I will do my best to help you."

"Reason, why would little friend do his best to help us?

We have never had any contact, we are just passing strangers, little friend is like this, it seems that there is no benefit to you at all."

"Senior is right, I have never had any contact with your Apricot Blossom Village, and today we are just passing strangers, but there is no lack of origin between us."

"What does little friend mean by this?"

Everyone in the council hall showed a puzzled look, not understanding what he meant.

"The reason why this junior said this is because there is a reason. I wonder, who is Hua Lian Yue to you?"

Pa cha!

The teacups in the hands of the old village chief and others fell to the ground.

They stood up abruptly, their expressions shocked, their lips trembling.

"Little friend you... no... senior, what exactly is going on?

The old village chief trembled excitedly. Although it was difficult for him to understand, he wanted to know what was going on. How could this young outsider say that the ancient ancestor Emperor Daughter was his old friend.

Because the other party said that the Ancient Ancestor's Imperial Daughter was an old friend of his, they even changed their address accordingly, from "Little Friend" to "Senior."

"Many years ago, I had the good fortune to enter a chaotic space-time by chance, where I was fortunate enough to meet your Ancient Ancestor Hua Lian Yue, as well as other prodigies.

At that time, they were about to embark on the desolate and dark battlefield.

We once sat together, drinking and talking happily.

Although our acquaintance was brief, we recognized each other as friends, regretting that we had not met sooner.

Just now, seeing the clan emblem on your ancestral monument, which is exactly the same as the clan emblem embroidered on Lian Yue's dress at that time, I knew that you might have some connection with her.

Before entering this world, I learned that there were some heroic descendants living here as refugees.

You are the descendants of heroes from the Immortal Ancient Era.

Even without the relationship with Lian Yue, I would spare no effort to help you, let alone that you are Lian Yue's clansmen."

Upon hearing this, the old village chief and others' eyes gradually turned red, with tears glistening inside.

"Finally, there are people in this world who remember the contributions of our ancestors and ancient ancestors, and are willing to help us because of this, instead of ignoring us, or even suppressing us in every possible way…"

The old village chief's voice was somewhat sorrowful, also mixed with deep-seated grievances, and even a hint of hatred.

Throughout the ages, they had never received any care, only targeting and suppression.

As a result, in such a long period, their population had never been able to increase, and they could only struggle to maintain such a scale, avoiding the danger of extinction.

"Sometimes, I wonder, when our ancestors and ancient ancestors went to fight against the darkness, shedding blood on the desolate land, sacrificing their lives for all living beings, did they ever think about how the world would treat their families after their sacrifice, how they would treat their descendants, did they ever think that their efforts would not be exchanged for the gratitude of the world, but instead be hunted down, almost exterminated, and forced to hide and take refuge?

Even after hiding in such a place, they are still suppressed and targeted…"

"It's really not easy to be a hero in this world, you have to shed blood and tears."

Another old man in the village said self-deprecatingly.

Looking at their faces full of sorrow, the tears in their eyes, and listening to what they said.

Jun Wuxie slowly clenched his hands, his mood heavy.

"There are as many sentient beings in the world as the sands of the Ganges River, some are righteous, some are evil, some are greedy, some are despicable and shameless, some are noble, some are selfish, and some sacrifice themselves for others.

It is common for people to be worse than animals, and animals to be better than people. This is a common situation, and every group, every race, has all kinds of types.

I know your experiences and can understand your feelings.

But you must believe that there are still many, many creatures who are grateful for the contributions of your ancestors and ancient ancestors in that era.

Perhaps, they want to help you, but they are powerless.

Don't worry, since I'm here, I will help you get back all the grievances you have suffered.

I will kill all those ungrateful bastards!"

Jun Wuxie's emotions fluctuated somewhat violently at this moment, and he couldn't help but swear.

Especially when he thought of Lian Yue and the others still retaining their obsessions after their sacrifice, their corpses and bodies boarding the Hunting Dark, and still fighting against the darkness to this day.

Thinking about how their family descendants were treated like this, the anger in his heart was difficult to restrain.

"Senior, absolutely not! How can your current cultivation be a match for them?

Those forces have deep foundations. You are an old friend of the Ancient Ancestor's Imperial Daughter. You must not risk your life for us, otherwise we would be ashamed of the Ancient Ancestor!"

The old village chief and others hurriedly walked out of their seats.

"Don't worry, I never do things without being sure.

Also, don't address me as Senior, I'm not used to it."

"How can that be? You are a friend of the Ancient Ancestor's Imperial Daughter!"

The old village chiefs insisted.

"How about this, my name is Jun Wuxie, and in our world, people call me Divine King Jun.

You can also call me that, the word Senior is really awkward to hear."

Jun Wuxie knew that it was difficult to persuade them to call him by his name, so he could only settle for the next best thing.

The old village chiefs thought about it, the words Divine King Jun seemed to be a form of respect, and as long as it was a form of respect, it would be fine.

Immediately, they nodded.

"Village Chief, come over here and let me check the situation in your body.

Trust me, I will definitely be able to solve the problem for you."

Jun Wuxie knew that their problem was not easy to solve, it should be the means left in their bloodline by the Emperor Realm powerhouse at the end of the Immortal Ancient Era.

Otherwise, Jing Ya should have taken action to solve it back then.

But Jing Ya didn't do that, obviously, it was difficult for her to do it herself.
