Devouring the Stars: Withdrawing Talents

Chapter 508: The Hermit!
Ancestral God Sect, Qingxiao Temple.

"Ok?"

"Why is he here?"

Yang Wu, who was sitting on the throne, suddenly opened his eyes, then stood up, took a step forward and disappeared into the temple.

……

The mysterious realm of the ancestors is located in the distant void outside the colorful Aurora Lake.

Wow~
The space in the distance fluctuated slightly, and an old man sitting cross-legged on a green mountain appeared.

His divine body was nearly 100,000 kilometers tall, and he wore ordinary-looking green armor, with two transparent horns on his forehead.

"Greetings, Senior Zuo Shan Ke!"

Yang Wu, who had just arrived from afar, paid his respects to this important figure. He thought it would be better for him to be respectful and polite.

"You came!"

The hermit looked at Yang Wu with a smile on his face, his voice gentle with a hint of joy.

While the hermit was speaking, a soft light emanated from his body. This light shone on people, making them feel extremely warm and peaceful.

But Yang Wu discovered that he could no longer feel the fundamental laws of the universe.

hum~
As the space fluctuated slightly, like ripples, Zuo Shanke and Yang Wu suddenly disappeared into the void.

The laws of the universe retreated, and they seemed to have entered another dimension. People from the outside world, even the Lord of the Universe who came here in person, could not observe them, but they could clearly observe everything in the outside world.

The law retreats!
This is the means of the strongest person in the universe. After a life is promoted to the strongest person in the universe, the original will of the universe gives it a certain respect.

……

On the dark green mountain peak, Yang Wu and the hermit sat opposite each other, with a table in front of them, on which were fine wine and rare fruits.

"Back then, I spent a huge amount of money to build the cradle of Earth in order to guide and nurture a race that excels in spiritual will."

"But I never expected that a genius like you would appear in the Earth lineage that I guided."

Even the hermit couldn't help but sigh. After only tens of thousands of years of practice, he actually became the master of the universe. This is no longer a genius, but a monster!
Yang Wu was not surprised at all when the hermit revealed his identity. He estimated that he had already been noticed by the hermit when he tried to look up the Nine Tribulations Secret Book on Earth.

Yang Wu nodded and listened.

To be honest, he was actually feeling quite complicated at the moment, because he had never thought that their first meeting would be in this way.

Yang Wu didn't know how Zuo Shanke felt about his accident, but judging from the current situation, the other party came with great goodwill.

In fact, judging from various events in the past, the hermit still has great kindness towards humans.

He guided and nurtured two ethnic groups.

The Yanshen Clan was formerly a branch of the human race, and the people on Earth are also a branch of the human race.

Perhaps in Zuo Shanke's mind, he also believes that humans are the race with the most potential. Even if they are born with poor foundations, they have infinite potential.

The foundation can be improved through means, resources, and possession of bodies.

But some things, such as spirituality, creativity, understanding, potential, etc., are the foundation of becoming a super being.

Or perhaps in the Origin Continent, the former God King Zuo Shanke was also a human being, so even if he smuggled into this three thousand cosmic sea dimensions and reincarnated in this primitive universe, he still valued humans the most.

After all, even if he had secretly played the role of the other Blood Cloud Palace Master, he had provoked the entire universe, causing a bloody storm in the entire original universe and being hunted by billions of races in the entire universe.

But he didn't provoke humans.

From this point, we can see that the hermit's attitude towards humans is quite friendly.

"Senior, what are you talking about?" Yang Wu asked curiously, looking towards the Colorful Aurora Lake. "Is this about Luo Feng?"

"Ah."

The hermit nodded and said, "There's a shameless old fellow who actually lowered himself to attack my disciples just for a few top-level treasures. Naturally, I had to come and see."

Yang Wu couldn't help but twitch his lips. This old man who said on the surface that he only provided resources and didn't care about his life or death, had actually been secretly paying attention to Luo Feng's growth since Luo Feng truly became the master of the Star Tower.

Like the abyss of the cosmic ocean in the original novel, it appears not to care about your life or death, but in fact it is always following you quietly.

Ok……

Faster than the giant axe that came specially to support.

"Thank you for showing mercy last time, senior!" Yang Wu was talking about the last time the hermit reminded him that the three tribes hired someone to kill him.

"The three tribes came to me that year and said they would pay me with nine top-level weapons in exchange for completely destroying a peerless human genius."

The hermit said this with a bit of pride: "This treasure has been delivered to my door, why not refuse it? Anyway, I have no intention of actually taking it. At most, I will just pretend to take it."

The hermit sighed, "I got nine top-level treasures for free. Their value is comparable to a piece of top-level treasure armor."

Yang Wu also laughed when he heard this. After all, he was born on Earth, and there was some connection between him and the hermit.

Fortunately, the three tribes did not look for Zuo Shanke again when they assassinated Luo Feng this time, otherwise the losses would have been more than just the nine top treasures.

"In my eyes, the Yanshen people and the people on Earth are all my children." The hermit said with a kind look and a smile.

Yang Wu smiled and said that it was just for listening but not to take it seriously.

Everything Zuo Shanke did was just to cultivate a strong man who would go back to the Origin Continent with him and help him take revenge.

After putting in so much effort, he would be satisfied as long as there was someone who could meet Zuo Shanke's requirements.

As for the rest?
The hermit would not take it seriously.

If you satisfy him, you are his child. If you do not satisfy him, he will not even look at you even if you die.

Just like the two candidates for inheritance that the Earth had produced, they were outstanding in terms of soul will. One had experienced the inheritance of life and death for more than 2000 years, and the other for more than 3000 years.

However, after failing to accept the inheritance of life and death, Zuo Shanke was too lazy to even reverse time and space to be resurrected.

Therefore, for Zuo Shanke, only those who can achieve his expected goals, or at least have the hope of becoming Chaos or even a God-King, are his children.

The rest?

Ha ha.

The hermit obviously knew that Yang Wu was not easy to fool. After all, they were all adults. It was okay to get closer to him, but there was no point in saying more.

To the hermit, Yang Wu was of the same lineage as the Earth, and had a natural affinity with him.

Yang Wu is very mysterious!
It was so mysterious that the hermit didn't react at first. He just thought it was a trap set by the original will. He was extremely vigilant and stayed away from it.

However, by the time he reacted, Yang Wu had already grown up completely. The whole process took only a short 20,000 years, which was really incredible.

The hermit came to this mysterious realm of the ancestors today, not only to secretly escort Luo Feng, but also to meet Yang Wu.

He also wanted to keep a hidden hand, make an extra preparation, and have an extra bargaining chip, which is never a bad thing.

At present, Luo Feng has only barely met the bottom line of the hermit's expectations, and there are not too many surprises. The appearance of Yang Wu has added another weight to the hermit's plan.

of course.

This was the first time the two met, so it was not appropriate to talk too much. They just briefly talked about some small things, and then Yang Wu got up and said goodbye.
