Chapter 263: The Great Selection, Ancient Relic
The old man stretched out three fingers and said in a solemn tone: "The reason is only three words - a sense of crisis." β
"Now, the Alliance of Sixteen is becoming less and less present in Vientiane. Once the Sixteen-Nation Alliance was considered a chicken rib in Vientiane, there was no need for it to exist. Then, it will be isolated by other forces, and it will be directly classified as a wild place. β
"Isolated, a savage place?" in Concubine Dan's beautiful eyes, the sense of doubt was even heavier.
"Yes. The so-called wild land is the place of abandonment and exile. Abandoned by his own people, no one cares. In this way, it will also become a delicacy in the mouths of foreign races, and even be divided, eaten, and devoured by foreign races. The human beings who live here are lucky enough to become slaves of alien races, and those who are unlucky are devoured and exterminated. Once it becomes a wild land, unless there is no alien invasion, it is a dead end. β
Old man Ye Chonglou's tone was heavy: "And this is definitely not alarmist. Now the major forces in the Vientiane territory have become more and more aware that the Sixteen-Nation Alliance is a chicken rib. If the Sixteen-Nation Alliance does not have some good performance, it will really be abandoned and become a wild land. If that happens, the consequences will be devastating. β
"In this way, this big selection, the four major sects are also out of this sense of crisis?" Jiang Chen asked his own question.
"Yes, there is a sense of crisis. Otherwise, what else can make the four major sects let go of their prejudices? Give up grievances, and join hands to hold this big election? This is definitely a once-in-a-century event. Jiang Chen, the old man invited you to come this time, and he also wanted to tell you. Participating in this big selection is an opportunity for you. It's not just a matter of resources, it's more likely to make you soar to the next level and attract more attention. It is even possible to be favored by the Venerable Yuan Realm. β
The old man continued: "Jiang Chen, don't underestimate this opportunity, once you are favored by the Venerable of the Yuan Realm, it will really be extraordinary. Yuan Realm Venerable, in the Sixteen Nations Alliance, is definitely a rare existence. This kind of old monster, even if it is placed in the entire Vientiane territory, it is a high-level person. Although there are more powerful existences in the Vientiane Territory, it is extremely popular to be able to mix with the Venerable of the Yuan Realm in the Vientiane Territory, no matter where you go. It is bound to become the object of the general trend. β
"Jiang Chen, the old man has said so much, you have a good attitude. Concubine Dan saw that Jiang Chen's expression was flat, and she didn't have that very fanatical look. I was a little angry in my heart, thinking that what did you do with Jiang Chen, why do you always have to behave so calmly?
Jiang Chen saw that the old man and Concubine Dan were looking at him, and his eyes were full of anticipation.
"You just say, whether to participate or not. Concubine Dan asked angrily.
"Participate. Jiang Chen nodded resolutely.
Concubine Dan waved her pink fist: "Remember! Not only do you have to participate, but you also have to do your best, you must make a splash and step on all those unbeatable geniuses of the sect!"
Jiang Chen smiled: "This, isn't it a bit difficult for a strong man." β
"It's just that it's difficult for a strong man!" the corners of Concubine Dan's mouth raised, and she snorted lightly, "You guy, you always want to be lazy, if you don't make it difficult for a strong man like this, where will you use all your strength." β
This time, the old man stood on Concubine Dan's side and said with a smile: "Jiang Chen, the old man actually wants to see how unfathomable your potential is!"
"Old man, I'm just lucky, I had some adventures when I was young. It's nothing. β
The old man's expression suddenly became very serious, and he persuaded: "Jiang Chen, actually, I just want to tell you these words. The adventures of your youth make you different from most people and give you a unique advantage. However, with the departure of that senior, all this is a thing of the past. I hope that your adventures do not become an obstacle to your progress. Don't let your horizons be elevated and you can't keep your feet on the ground. The old man is afraid, you are too high-minded, look down on the sect, always work behind closed doors, and act alone. In this way, the good youth will be squandered by you unconsciously, wasted, or even wasted. In that case, it would be a pity. Once you are in your thirties, many opportunities will slowly disappear. Remember, at your current age, you really can't be wasted, and don't have a sense of resistance to the sect just because of your high vision. β
The old man spoke earnestly, and his words could be described as very heartfelt.
Moreover, the old man thought about it for a long time and thought about it for a long time before he decided to say it.
He really admires Jiang Chen, and the starting point is to let Jiang Chen not lose himself, not to be blinded by the adventures of his youth, too fluttering and ignoring the importance of being down-to-earth.
Now that the adventures of his youth have become a thing of the past, then the martial arts have to be down-to-earth after all.
Joining the sect is the best choice for a martial arts genius.
Old man, he was worried that Jiang Chen's morale was too high and he was prejudiced against the sect, so he would resist the sect and not enter the sect.
In this way, he will lose a lot of opportunities because of his prejudices.
I have to say that the old man is very sincere. Jiang Chen could also feel the sincerity of the old man.
There was a slight feeling in my heart, and I have to say that the old man's words were a little thought-provoking. Jiang Chen's subconscious was more or less resistant to the sect.
Because, sect disciples, too much made him feel disappointed and speechless.
Think about it carefully, even though you have memories of your past life, you have to be down-to-earth after all along the way to martial arts. It is impossible for him to rush to the realm of the heavens for no reason.
The road has to be taken step by step, and the sect is an existence that he cannot ignore at this stage.
In fact, Jiang Chen was planning to enter the sect.
However, there are still some mustards in his heart that he has not let go, and there are still some prejudices that have not been let go.
Listening to the old man's little touch, Jiang Chen's heart completely calmed down and completely put aside his prejudices.
At this moment, Jiang Chen's mood suddenly brightened.
stood up respectfully and gave a salute to the old man: "The old man is the first to drink today, so that the kid will wake up, and the kid has thanked him here." β
Jiang Chen was also a little embarrassed at the moment, he always felt that although the old man had a high status, he was not qualified to be his teacher.
That's right.
But on this issue, the old man's reminder did give him a sense of epiphany, which made him put aside the prejudice in his heart, and the whole person was relieved.
Yes, when you come to this world, you should integrate into this world.
What is the need to have any prejudices? The memory advantage of the previous life can make one's path go faster, but it does not necessarily guarantee that one can move forward and ascend to the sky in one step.
If the mentality is not adjusted well, then how can we face the challenges?
After Jiang Chen reflected, he felt that he had indeed gone too far before.
Perhaps, everything before was smooth, and it was so easy for me to feel that everything in this world was taken for granted, right?
The old man looked at Jiang Chen's bright eyes, revealing a kind of open-mindedness, revealing a youthful sincerity.
I was very relieved in my heart: "Otherwise, how can the old man say that you have a high level of understanding, and you have great talent? In this way, you understand the meaning of the old man's words, which is very good." Then next, the old man is waiting to appreciate your demonic performance, hahaha, it's really enjoyable. I didn't expect that I, Ye Chonglou, would have a day when I was looking forward to the performance of young people? When I was young and frivolous, I felt that it was impossible for the Sixteen-Nations Alliance to have a junior with such a talent as me. Thinking about it now, it's really naΓ―ve and ridiculous. β
The old man was self-deprecating and uncovered his old bottom.
Since he decided to participate in the big selection, Jiang Chen naturally wanted to know the information about the big selection.
"Old man, when will this big selection start? How will the selection be made? Will each sect be selected separately or will it be selected together?
Jiang Chen's series of questions are what he is most eager to understand now.
The old man showed a look of appreciation on his face, and every question about Jiang Chen's question was mentioned on the point.
"The big selection, as the name suggests, is the joint selection of the four major sects, and it is no longer divided into sect boundaries and no longer divided into national boundaries! Therefore, this selection is all participated in together. As for the location, the League of Sixteen has always had a fixed place to go. β
"What place?" Jiang Chen was curious.
Concubine Dan lost her voice and said, "Old man, isn't it the ancient relic?"
The old man nodded: "That's right, that's it." β
"However, opening that ancient relic realm is very expensive, and there are also annual ring restrictions. β
"The tree-ring limit is not a problem, it is once in a hundred years, and it expires at about this time. However, opening the Ancient Relic Realm is really costly. Moreover, without the joint efforts of the old monsters of the Yuan Realm, the Ancient Relic Realm would not be able to be opened at all. The Yuan Realm Venerables of the four major sects must join forces in order to barely open the Ancient Relic Realm. The longer you want to sustain it, the more you have to pay. β
"What cost?"
"Spirit stones, spirit objects, the gates of the spirit array that support the ancient relics. Without the Spirit Array Gate, there was no way to enter the Ancient Spirit Realm. β
"So harsh?"
"If it's not harsh, then it's not called the Ancient Relic. This is also the reason why there is such a good place for Lu, but those old monsters of the Yuan Realm can't go in to cultivate. Going in once, the price is too great. And if everyone's opinions are not unanimous, this ancient relic realm will not be opened. β
The conditions for opening are so harsh that it is indeed difficult to reach a consensus.
Otherwise, if the Yuan Realm Venerable enters the Ancient Relic Realm to cultivate, the effect will definitely be better than cultivating in the sect.
However, the materials needed to support the Spirit Array Gate, as well as the time and energy required to establish the Spirit Array Gate, and the time limit for entering the Ancient Relic Realm, all determined that this Ancient Relic Realm was not suitable for a few people.
It has to be a large-scale operation, and it is only cost-effective to start it once.
"Ancient Relic ......" Jiang Chen found that there were really some interesting things in this world.
According to the memories of his previous life, there are all kinds of maze in a world, and the more relics there are, the longer the history of this world, and the more secrets there are in this world.
Generally, this kind of independent space will only be formed after countless vicissitudes of life and countless reincarnations.
"In this way, this world is probably not as simple as I thought. A small alliance of sixteen nations, all of which have ancient relics. This means that this world must have had a great history in ancient times. β
Jiang Chen made his own preliminary judgment in his heart.
However, now he doesn't care about that, he cares about the rules of this big selection.
Regarding the rules, the old man can't say anything.
After all, this kind of thing must be a matter of the four major sects and several old monsters of the Yuan Realm getting together, through various discussions, all kinds of compromises, and all kinds of conflicts, and finally finalizing a rule that everyone agrees on.
This rule will never be disclosed in advance.
Even if it is the old man Ye Chonglou, I am afraid that he is not qualified to know in advance.
The third watch is here, and there will be one more later!
