438: Chapter 438 The Ancestor's Walkthrough

King Dong looked at the other party's panicked appearance, feeling both annoyed and amused.

"Although the Seniors always say you are a person with methods and can always give us some surprises, this is still dealing with a tiger, and it will definitely result in heavy losses."

"I originally thought that as a businessman, I could minimize these losses to achieve my goal."

"But now that the goal has been achieved, my losses are still heavy. It seems the Seniors' words were indeed very meaningful, and I was too careless."

"However, as a businessman, I have one advantage: although I am arrogant, I always leave myself a way out."

"Logically speaking, since I have already suffered great losses, even if I earn some back, the overall situation is still a loss, so I should strengthen my contact with you and cooperate more closely."

"But I have said before, I never gamble, I only invest. If an investment fails, it fails; continuing to bet is gambling. The best thing I should do is withdraw and cash out quickly."

"You beast! You bunch of low-class beasts, you actually betrayed me again! I will definitely kill you!"

The figure inside the rock became increasingly unstable, and its emotions grew more volatile.

King Dong then stood up and slowly bowed to pay his respects.

"Mr. Kun Gou, thank you for your assistance in my career. Although it was messy, the goal was achieved after all."

"As for the Taiyi City you mentioned, if you are in such a hurry, there must be many of your schemes inside, right?"

"Rest assured, I will take them in, provide for them well, and look after them as best as I can. This way, I can achieve my goal while also preventing your schemes from succeeding."

"When it comes to burning bridges, believe me, no one understands how to burn bridges better than I do."

"King Dong! Just you wait, I will make you..."

Immediately following a loud explosion, the entire rock shattered. A sharp piece of rock sliced across King Dong's face, but the wound healed instantly, leaving not a single scar.

"With such strong power, yet you still have the temperament of a child. This power is truly wasted on you."

After speaking, King Dong returned to his bitter expression.

"Sigh, it still hurts a bit. I should have made a huge profit. I just hope this Taiyi City is important enough to him so that he doesn't dare to act recklessly."

The person who had been in contact with King Dong all along was Kun Gou, who had previously appeared in Kaifeng as an Incarnation and nearly died on the spot.

After that failure in Kaifeng, he approached King Dong. King Dong needed the other party's power and methods, so he naturally agreed readily.

Although Kun Gou had a terrible reputation, his abilities were truly high, so even with such a poor reputation, there were still people willing to cooperate with him.

It's just that he didn't expect to fall into the hands of King Dong again, even worse than the time in Kaifeng; he was taken out before he could even show his face.

Upholding the rationality of a businessman, King Dong knew from the start that cooperating with Kun Gou would not end well.

Therefore, as long as he successfully earned even a little bit from the other party, even just a tiny amount, he would sell him out once he cashed in.

He would not pay even the slightest price for future benefits.

His vigilance against Kun Gou was astonishingly high, to the point that he had already written the letter to the Garden of Eden before cooperating with him, ready to be sent at any time.

And now, he had obtained tangible benefits. Even though the losses were heavy, he had no other thoughts and directly sent messages to those powerful beings.

He knew the other party was not the main body, but being able to capture an Incarnation or Clone of an existence at that level still had great research value.

This money could help him recover his losses well.

And to prevent retaliation from the other party, holding tightly onto the chips he was scheming for and providing for them like his own father was not out of the question.

Not to mention that what the other party said made sense; this Taiyi City was also a goose that laid golden eggs, so it should be managed well.

However, thinking of the subordinates he had lost, King Dong couldn't help but feel pained again.

He wasn't pained by the loss of these old subordinates, but by the gold coins they dropped, none of which he had managed to collect.

After all, in his eyes, the only beneficiary after their deaths should be himself. That was already his money, but because of Kun Gou's secret maneuvering, plus that crazy idiot Ma Hao, he had lost money that should have belonged to him.

This in itself was unforgivable!

Just like that, Kun Gou was schemed against once again.

Meanwhile, Zhou Yan, who had once again indirectly benefited from Kun Gou's assist, was still listening to his Old Ancestor talk about history.

Regarding Kun Gou, who always wanted to scheme against others but ended up playing himself, Zhou Yan didn't even know that the other party had participated in this matter.

"So, the history of the Second Generation Ancestor of Humanity is very likely in the same era as the history of the Immortal Realm, or even earlier?"

Zhou Yan recalled Meng Zhang's previous words.

And the Yu Kou also gave an accurate reply.

"Yes, to be accurate, the history of the Second Generation Ancestor of Humanity and before that was likely before the birth of the Immortal Realm."

"Because the Immortal Realm is not just a gap; all information regarding it has disappeared."

"So, to avoid causing panic, most rulers and powerful beings have unanimously chosen to relegate the history of the Immortal Realm to legend, placing it before all other history."

"However, you had better not believe other history either. After all, the entire Immortal Realm era lies between them, so most of it is missing. No one knows what happened during those periods; one can only understand a rough outline."

"As for the history of the ancient and medieval periods, there is even less need to mention it."

"The alternation between the new method and the Old Method, the conflict between the Human Race and the Yao Race—things like this inherently imply blood and slaughter."

"Therefore, for certain purposes, that history has basically been beautified or altered. You might as well treat them as myths and legends too."

"The little lion cannot hold on for much longer. I can only briefly inform you of what is about to happen."

"Based on the information you provided, a major event is about to happen in your current location and era."

"First, the Great Liang Dynasty where you are will perish in over a hundred years. I am not too clear about the reason for its demise, but according to the Seniors, the process was extremely swift and ruthless."

"At the same time, on the Yao Race's side, the Yao Race currently occupying the Northern Ju Lu Continent is about to welcome an unprecedented Yao Emperor."

"His name is Canglan Jun, and he is a type of exotic beast known as the Juan Haike."

"This race was exceptionally powerful in that era, and he was the most powerful among them. You must absolutely not encounter him; otherwise, even with your outstanding talent, it will be difficult to contend with him."

"And he will launch a massive southward invasion in a hundred years. By then, the Four Great Continents will become quite lively."

"The time you can stay in that era now is at most a little over a hundred years. Any longer and you will inevitably be entangled in various matters."

"With your strength, within these hundred years, as long as you don't encounter a Middle Stage Void Refining, there will be no danger."

"So, try to stay away from major factions as much as possible, and do not stay long in Great Liang, one of the centers of the storm."

Then, the Yu Kou did not waste words and quickly transmitted the contents regarding the time-based Cultivation Technique.

Zhou Yan also obtained a new Cultivation Technique, "The Scripture of the Useless".

He originally wanted to complain about the name of this Cultivation Technique, but the voice call on the other end had already hung up.

There was no time to say a few more words.

Zhou Yan was recalling the contents of "The Scripture of the Useless", transcribing it into a book, and planned to learn it with one click after he finished transcribing.

However, during this time, Zhou Yan was multitasking, still calculating matters regarding Great Liang.

According to Zheng Zhengzao's memories, a major event was about to happen, and the history of Great Liang stated that Great Liang perished in the era of Liu Yi.

Could there be any connection between the two?

However, these were secondary; the existence he was about to meet, who might be the Old Ancestor of Great Liang, was the most troublesome.

It didn't seem appropriate not to meet him either. Although Great Liang was going to perish, that was a matter for a hundred years later.

Currently, the other party's influence was still strong. If he made the relationship too tense, causing him to cause trouble everywhere and preventing him from achieving a Soul Transformation Breakthrough within a hundred years, then he would have to face that guy called Canglan Jun.

By the way, what kind of race is the Juan Haike? Why haven't I heard of it?

Forget it, I can ask about this after visiting the Dao Sect. For now, I still need to find a way to sweet-talk the old man and make him acknowledge my strength.

Sigh, I can only hope that old man has a better temper and that his strength does not exceed the Middle Stage Void Refining.

Having been confirmed by the Old Ancestor, Zhou Yan already knew that after Old Method Cultivators Cultivate to Void Refining, the span of strength is very large.

There were records of Early Stage Void Refining being killed by new method Soul Transformation, but once the cultivation reached the Middle Stage Void Refining, it was at least comparable to Body Integration.

But Soul Transformation fighting Void Refining—this is actually not unofficial history, but official history?
