C14 Old
Over the next two days, Ye Haotian brought some herbs from the mountains to treat Ye Qian's injuries.
Luckily, although Ye Qian was injured, he was not too badly injured. After two days of treatment, he had almost fully recovered. His cultivation base was almost at the sixth level of the Xuan Body.
The sword from the fire, only after true polishing, eagles can spread their wings to soar.
Ye Qian's heart was filled with respect as he watched his father leave. He looked at his father's left hand, which was missing a little finger, and his eyes couldn't help but turn slightly red.
"Young man, not bad, you have passed my test!"
At that moment, an old voice suddenly sounded in Ye Qian's mind.
The voice seemed to come from beyond the heavens, ethereal and real at the same time.
Ye Qian was shocked, "Who? Who's talking? "
"Aren't I right in front of you?"
Following which, Ye Qian's forehead emitted a purplish-gold ray of light and an illusory old man appeared in front of him.
"You … You... Are you a human or a ghost? "
This frightened Ye Qian quite a bit. He had heard ghost stories from his family's elders since he was very young. Although he did not believe it when he grew up, he did not expect that he would meet them this time.
"Are my eyes playing tricks on me?" With this thought in mind, he rubbed his eyes again. However, the illusory elder was still there, smiling at him.
"That's not right, if it's a ghost, there would be no shadow, and it wouldn't come out in broad daylight!" So he looked at the ground again. There really was no shadow, but how could a ghost appear on a sunny day?
"Young man, I am neither human nor ghost!" The elder looked at Ye Qian playfully and smiled.
"You … You... You are neither a human nor a ghost, what is that? Could it be a god? " Ye Qian was a bit incoherent.
"That's right, this old man is a god!" The old man said.
Ye Qian frowned and looked at the old man in front of him carefully. He gathered up his courage and asked, "You say you are a god, how can you prove it?"
He then pointed to a rock at the side and said, "If you really are a god, then turn that rock into gold!"
The old man had a strange expression on his face: "Young man, who said that God can turn stones into gold?"
"That's what fairy tales books say!" Ye Qian said as if it was natural.
"Fairy book? What is that book? How come I've never heard of it? " Now it was the old man's turn to be puzzled.
"The fairytale book says that even deities can fly into the sky and escape into the ground. They can ride the clouds and turn stones into gold, and they can even turn life and death into bones. Don't you know that?" Ye Qian said seriously.
God is God, but God's ability is also limited, or you can fly in the sky and soar through the earth, or you can fly in the clouds, but you have to be like you said, 'a stone is gold, a man of life and death is bones, this is not certain, it needs special conditions to be able to do it. There has never been a thing that could appear out of thin air in this world! " The old man laughed.
Ye Qian was surprised for a moment, he scratched the back of his head, his face was full of confusion, "Could it be that fairy tales books are all lies?"
"Hehe, young man, gods are also the most basic people who can slowly cultivate and reach the next level. The reason why they are called gods is because they have gone through arduous training and finally grasped a strong power. When their power has reached a certain level, people will call them gods, but gods are not omnipotent!" The old man said earnestly.
Ye Qian revealed a pensive look. After a moment, he nodded and said, "You're right. Oh right, why are you here? What did you mean when you said I passed your test? "
After a short moment of surprise, Ye Qian slowly returned to normal.
The old man didn't know whether Ye Qian really understood it or not, but he didn't want to explain further on this topic: "It's because of that crown on your chest! And the reason you passed my test is because I saw your courage and dared to do something! Seeing your temperament, you have feelings for me! I saw how strong you are and how proud you are! "
When Ye Qian heard this, he shook his head helplessly and revealed a confused expression. What courage? What kind of personality? He could no longer care about these things, because at this moment, he was just a homeless orphan.
"Young man, no need to be so confused. You are still young, and with your talent, you will certainly have a bright future ahead of you!"
Ye Qian sighed, "I'm just an orphan. I'm even a stray dog that has just been expelled from my family. What future is there for me to discuss?"
"Since I said that you have passed my test and I am also a god, then of course, I am not just talking about it!" The elder looked at Ye Qian with a smile.
"So what? Didn't you say that God is just some relatively powerful people? " Ye Qian was in a bad mood.
"But I can help you, make you as strong as those powerful people!" The old man said again.
Ye Qian looked at the old man with disbelief. However, he was curious. The old man said that he was a god, but he also said that a god was not omnipotent. How in the world could he become strong?
"Old deity, it's not that I don't believe you, but you say that you're a deity, and the deity doesn't have the time to bother with a small figure like me!"
"It's fine if you don't want to talk about the past, but you don't need to call me the Old Daoist Immortal. I have a single name, 'Ancient'. You can call me that."
The old man let out a long sigh, his eyes revealed a vicissitudes of life, and then he changed the topic: "I can see that you are already at the sixth level of the Spirit Body, originally, you could have already started cultivating at the fifth level, but you still have no chance to learn it, today I will teach you a technique, Ancient God Spell!"
"Ancient God Spell? "Could this be a legendary high level cultivation technique?" Ye Qian was surprised. He looked at the ancient with his eyes wide open and an expression of disbelief on his face.
To his knowledge, there were only three types of cultivation techniques: low, intermediate, and high ranked. Most people only practiced low-level skills, but no one had ever seen a mid-level skill. As for the high-level skill, that was already a legendary existence.
"High-grade cultivation technique?" You really dare to say that! This is a real god-level power technique! " Gu was enraged by Ye Qian's words. He took out a God-tier skill book and it turned out to be a high-grade skill book.
"Divine level? Don't tell me there's a Divine level cultivation technique? " Ye Qian's eyes were wide open as he looked at the ancient figure. His face was filled with disbelief.
"That's right, it is indeed the Divine level!"
The ancient expression suddenly turned solemn, and an arrogant expression was revealed on his illusory face.
"Divine level? Could it be that only God can practice this technique? " Ye Qian was quite shocked. This cultivation technique was called "Ancient God Spell". Just by looking at its name, one could tell that it was not an ordinary cultivation technique. However, he was still a bit skeptical.
"You can understand it this way, but the cultivation conditions of this cultivation method are extremely harsh. If you cannot withstand it, your body will explode and you will die!"
An ancient expression appeared on his face.
Ye Qian saw the seriousness in Ancient's words and believed it in his heart. He looked at Ancient Emperor with a determined look on his face and said, "It doesn't matter. If this is really a god-like cultivation technique and you can make me stronger, then no matter how difficult it is, I will still practice it!"
An appreciative look appeared on the ancient face, but it disappeared in a flash. His expression was still solemn as he said, "You must think carefully, you can't use your life to joke around!"
At this time, Ye Qian did not answer immediately. Instead, he frowned and started to think.
Whether this Ancient God Spell was a Divine level technique or not, regardless of whether it was real or fake, just based on its age and its seriousness, one could guess that it would not be any worse. Now that he was alone, he didn't know where to go on his cultivation path from now on. Since he really had the chance, he could give it a try.
Ancient saw Ye Qian thinking, so he didn't urge him. Instead, he waited quietly.
How many years had he waited? Why would he care about this now?
Actually, he still had something that he didn't say. The sad and bloody past was something that Ye Qian couldn't touch at his current level, so he didn't say it.
