"Why, isn't it right? I have read some information. The Qianji Sect, the most famous sect that specializes in machine arts, has only been established for four or five thousand years. And the research of this Baiji Taoist is still ahead of them. For thousands of years, even if he is not the creator of the mechanism technique, he is probably a participant in the creation of the mechanism technique." Hearing the ridicule in Xuan Yuan's tone, Ye Zan said unconvinced.
Old Taoist Xuan Yuan laughed again when he heard this, glanced sideways at Ye Zan, and said proudly: "This Shenhua Realm alone has a history of nearly one hundred thousand years. It is the product of the previous calamity. The mechanism technique has been around for a long time, but it is only tens of thousands." The inheritance was discontinued years ago. This Taoist Baiji is just picking up the wisdom of his predecessors."
Hearing what Old Dao Xuan Yuan said, Ye Zan immediately knew that he had made a conceptual mistake. In the world of science and technology, the history of human beings from the formation of civilization to the colonization of the universe is only a few thousand years. Therefore, in his concept, thousands of years is a very long history, but these thousands of years can only be regarded as a small fragment in this world.
In fact, in the world of science and technology, humans are not a race with a long history. You know, through scientific calculations, the universe was born tens of billions of years before human civilization was formed. Human history may not even be counted as a fragment in these tens of billions of years.
After humans walked out of the earth and colonized the interstellar space, many relics of intelligent races were found on some planets or galaxies, many of which had a history far older than humans. However, some races perished before leaving their planet, and some races already dominated the entire galaxy but also perished.
There was even an intelligent race named the Zerg. Traces of their activities exist in thousands of galaxies. Fortunately, they have also perished. Moreover, what is even more interesting is that after extensive research, humans have discovered that the culprit responsible for the demise of the Zerg race is actually a virus that humans can easily kill.
And these are just the traces of the intelligent race that humans have found within the insignificant scope of activities in the universe. And the universe is so vast, no one can be sure whether there are more intelligent races in the vast star field that humans have not set foot in.
"Okay, you guys have a long history, okay? I'm an ignorant country bumpkin from the mountains." His history couldn't compare to other people's. Ye Zan felt a little depressed, but then continued to argue: "Even if it's what you said, , but it is still lost after all. Whether this Baiji Daoist was excavated or created by himself, he has finally brought this inheritance to light. It is not too much to say that he is the founder. "
"Hey, are you familiar with him?" Elder Xuan Yuan was too lazy to argue with Ye Zan. After all, Ye Zan had a chip in his head.
"Uh, okay, you said this secret realm is not simple." Ye Zan just wanted to argue with Xuan Yuan. Since he seemed to have the upper hand, he naturally wanted to give up.
"The owner of this secret realm has some connections with me. He is a casual cultivator from Gyro Island in the South China Sea. He calls himself Taoist Dou Yuan." Old Taoist Xuan Yuan said lightly.
"Dou Yuan?" Ye Zan touched his chin, muttered something in his mouth, and suddenly said: "Isn't this person your enemy?"
Originally, Ye Zan still didn't understand what "Dou Yuan" meant. But thinking that the Taoist Xuan Yuan had some connection with him, and thinking that there was the word "Yuan" in the Taoist title of the Taoist Xuan Yuan, Ye Zan seemed to understand something.
"We can't talk about enemies, it's just a fight we had when we were children." Elder Xuan Yuan's voice was slightly low, as if he was feeling a little sentimental.
When Ye Zan heard this, he immediately became interested. Although it was just one sentence, there was a lot of information in it. There is just some connection between them, they are clearly a pair of enemies who love and kill each other. I don’t know how many stories there are worth digging out.
However, the old Taoist Xuan Yuan did not satisfy Ye Zan's bad taste. He did not go into too much detail, but simply said: "When I became a disciple of the Yuqing Sect, he also left home with a loose cultivator. When we met again, It was a hundred years later. At the Jade Qing Sect Ten Thousand Immortals Gathering, I went on stage to receive the Taoist title Xuanyuan from my master. I saw him in the corner of the audience, but he had disappeared when I went to look for him. "
The meaning of casual cultivator is that there is no family or sect. Of course, they will accept apprentices, but only for the convenience of their own practice. Recruiting apprentices is like recruiting a handyman. In name, I am a master and apprentice, but in reality it is like employment. I will give you some benefits. If you have any problems, I will leave them to you to deal with. If I am satisfied, I will give you some more benefits.
Of course, it is not ruled out that there are those who are sincerely looking for successors and truly train their apprentices as their own successors, but they are only a handful among casual cultivators.
You must know that the Yuqing Sect ten thousand years ago was a righteous leader, not the third-rate shackles he is now. Therefore, from this master's point of view, Taoist Dou Yuan is lagging far behind Taoist Xuanyuan.
"I guess he thought you were seeking revenge on him, so of course he had to run away quickly." Ye Zan muttered next to him.
"Later, when I was traveling in the South China Sea, I was invited to attend a grand gathering. A casual cultivator asked me to give a Taoist title to his disciples. He stood in front of me and told me that he already had a Taoist title, and his Taoist title was Dou Yuan. His master slapped him." When Xuan Yuan said this, he couldn't help but smile.
Ye Zan curled his lips and interjected: "You can still laugh? He is obviously a hard worker. He keeps trying hard to catch up, but he can only watch his goal getting further and further away. He will show off in front of him from time to time, but A tragic story that cannot be avoided no matter how hard it is.”
"Well, he told me the same thing later, but at that time I was blocked by the Ten Demon Lords and couldn't save him in time." At this point, the old Taoist Xuan Yuan reached out and patted the boundary monument, as if the boundary monument was Taoist Dou Yuan, there was nostalgia and apology in this moment.
Ye Zan couldn't joke anymore and seemed to feel a little heavy. Taoist Dou Yuan was originally a loose cultivator in Nanhai. Why did he die in the Yuqing Sect when Xuanyuan fought against the Ten Demon Lords? He calls himself Dou Yuan and pursues him all his life, but cannot catch up all his life. He seems to be the enemy, but at the critical moment, he risks his life and thousands of miles to come to his aid.
"I think even when he died, he would be very happy because you were helped by him." Ye Zan, who couldn't stand the atmosphere, said pretending to be relaxed.
"That's how old I am," Xuan Yuan said mockingly to himself. He broke away from the feeling, and his tone returned to normal, and he said, "Let's talk about this secret realm. This secret realm was cultivated by Dou Yuan himself, but The one you are exploring is just one of them.”
"One of them! How many secret realms has he refined?" Ye Zan said in surprise. Although judging from Xuanyuan's words, Taoist Dou Yuan's cultivation level should not be low, but after all, he is a casual cultivator. When did he become so wealthy that he owned multiple secret realms
"A secret realm," Old Taoist Xuan Yuan stretched out a finger and shook it, but then added: "But it can be divided or combined."
