Chapter 4237

The old man clearly knew about Chung Ho and the others, and spoke of their deeds along the way.

Zi Chen, on the other hand, listened quietly and didn't interrupt.

The old man, who hadn't introduced himself, suddenly asked, "When did you meet them?"

"When I was in danger, they suddenly appeared and saved me," Zi Chen explained.

The old man asked, "If they were so busy, how could they have the time to save you?"

Zi Chen smiled bitterly. "Senior, please don't test me. If you have something to say, just say it. I'm Zi Chen, but I'm not the Zi Chen from back then.

I'm me. When I met Senior Lei Yutian's soul, he recognized me, but I didn't recognize him.

Senior, you're someone from back then, so you should have heard of the name Zi Chen. Unfortunately, that's not me.

Or rather, I'm not him. "

Zi Chen's straightforwardness caused the old man to laugh.

"Back then, Holy Zi Chen's disappearance was one of the greatest mysteries of the spirit world. Seeing you again made me curious."

In truth, the old man had recognized Zi Chen at first glance, but he couldn't believe that this was an old friend from back then.

Along the way, he had actually guessed the reason through his probing words.

The Holy Zi Chen from back then had indeed perished.

But how had Zi Chen perished?

Was he that powerful?

From what he could tell, even Zi Chen himself didn't know.

"Senior," Zi Chen asked, "what exactly happened back then? Why did the demons invade our spirit world?"

"I don't know the exact reason. It was as if the world's barrier suddenly became unstable. Not only did the demons invade, but the people of the God Realm also entered. After they entered, they only had one goal: to kill and seize!"

Even after countless years, the old man's emotions still fluctuated as he recalled the scene from back then.

"The spirit world that we have lived in for countless years, the world that nurtured countless powerhouses, no longer seems to belong to us. The sky seems to be collapsing due to an inexplicable force. Unknown black lightning and flames fall from the sky, destroying everything in the world.

One world after another was destroyed, and the tragedy of the Spirit Realm was happening again and again.

The old man glanced back at Zi Chen. "And you, the leader, after participating in several battles, suddenly disappeared."

Zi Chen knew that disappearing meant that he was dead. As for why he had died, he still did not know.

"There has always been a rumor that you obtained those coordinates, and your guess all this time came true, so you went to another world.

But this is just a rumor. "

The old man sighed emotionally. "At that time, many people died, but there were also countless unknown existences who shocked the world with a single brilliant feat, killing countless enemies.

In the end, the Astrals won, but it was a pyrrhic victory.

Lei Yutian's elder brother brought his remaining strength to the Devil Realm. He wanted to kill the mastermind behind the scenes and verify a result, but he never returned.

I have been waiting here for their return for many years. "

In just a few short sentences, he described the long war of the past.

Although the words were simple, Zi Chen could imagine the bitterness of the battle.

"Unfortunately, you have no memories of the past. Otherwise, you would know exactly what happened."

"You disappeared from the spirit world. Perhaps someone in the spirit world plotted against you.

But back then, your battle prowess was unparalleled, and you were the leader of the entire spirit world. I don't know who could have plotted against you. "

A thatched hut appeared in front of Zi Chen. It was the old man's resting place.

The old man motioned for Zi Chen to follow him inside.

After entering, Zi Chen realized that there was another world to this place. The thatched hut was just an illusion. This was another world. He saw all sorts of medicinal pills and holy talismans, as well as a few weapons.

Zi Chen was shocked.

The old man explained, "These are all the supplies prepared for the returnees. Unfortunately, they are no longer of any use. You can take them all."

"Me?"

Zi Chen was startled and flabbergasted.

"The spirit world has been peaceful for countless years. Those who fled back then were lucky enough not to die. They are recuperating and should be back soon. Take these things and go cultivate your power. When danger comes, I hope you can still become the leader of the spirit world."

"I'm just an Eight Stars cultivator. How could I lead a team?" Zi Chen said. "Even if I were to lead a team, it should be someone like you, senior."

"After waiting for so many years, I'm tired. I'm going to sleep."

The old man walked forward. The space there began to distort, and the old man disappeared into the distorted space.

Zi Chen called out "senior" a few times, but didn't get any response. This gave Zi Chen a bad feeling. What kind of sleep did the old man mean?

He called out a few more times, but there was still no response. All that was left were the many supplies from back then.

Zi Chen had no choice but to take them all away.

During this trip to the Demon Realm, he didn't encounter too much danger. Instead, he obtained many opportunities. Normally, Zi Chen would be very happy and excited, but now, he felt a bit hesitant.

After the old man disappeared, Zi Chen sensed the aura of heaven and earth that belonged to the spirit world. He naturally found the direction to leave in. He bowed and then turned into a ray of light and flew into the distance.

After breaking through the barrier here, he finally returned to the spirit world. He felt the familiar aura of heaven and earth, and a sense of familiarity welled up in his heart.

Zi Chen released his aura. This was what he had agreed to with Chung Ho. At the same time, Zi Chen took out the token that Chung Ho had given him.

After a short while, a figure appeared. However, it wasn't Chung Ho, but Han Nu.

Zi Chen called out, "Big Sister," and asked curiously why it wasn't Chung Ho.

Han Nu told him that Chung Ho was recuperating.

Next, Han Nu brought Zi Chen back to the Demon Suppressing Sect. Apart from Chung Ho, the other Holy Sovereigns were all there.

Originally, Zi Chen only knew that they were Holy Sovereigns, but now, he had a different understanding. Not only were they Holy Sovereigns, but they were all ancient Holy Sovereigns.

They sat together and asked Zi Chen about this mission. As for Chung Ho, he was leaning against the lightning tree. His face was pale, and his aura was unstable. At this moment, he looked at Zi Chen with a rare sincere smile on his face.

In fact, they didn't need to ask to guess. These demon Holy Sovereigns were like mad dogs these days. Clearly, they were taking revenge after suffering a great loss.

How could they suffer a loss for no reason?

Of course, it was because Zi Chen had completed the mission.
