Hearing this, Dao Yan's face was surprised at first, but he quickly came to his senses:
"Leave the Eternal Star Territory?"
"Not bad." In response, the Ancient Sage of Xiadu nodded, with a very solemn expression on his face.
At the same time, Dao Yan also thought of a lot.
The universe is vast, the galaxies are endless, and although the eternal star field is vast, it is undoubtedly just a drop in the ocean compared to the entire universe.
Even so, when his hometown was described as a barren land by his ancestor, Dao Yan was still a little angry and couldn't help but mutter:
"I think eternity is pretty good. It's not considered barren, right?"
Hearing this, the ancient sage of Xiadu opposite smiled slightly and said in a rather kind tone:
"I am in a corner of eternity. Although there is no immortal powerful person sitting here, the source energy of heaven and earth is still abundant, and it can indeed be regarded as a pure land, peaceful and peaceful, but it is a pity -"
Having said this, the old sage changed his tone, and his words were full of majesty and majesty.
His eyebrows and expression suddenly became solemn, and his eyes were blazing, like a sword that had not been sharpened for a long time showing its edge again.
That kind of power made it almost difficult for Dao Yan opposite him to look directly at him.
Fortunately, such a terrifying scene only lasted for a moment, and then it was like a flash in the pan, and the ancient sage in front of him returned to his previous appearance of a kind old man.
The ancient sage of Xiadu lowered his eyes and looked straight at Dao Yan across from him. With an extremely complicated expression on his face, he said:
"Dao Yan, what do you think of my cultivation, Patriarch?"
It was clearly a questioning tone, but the old sage's words seemed to contain endless emotion and a sense of regret that was hard to ignore.
After hearing this, Dao Yan, who was opposite him, had a surprised expression on his face. He obviously didn't understand why the Patriarch would ask such a question.
Dao Yan thought briefly, then bowed his hands respectfully and said truthfully:
"I don't know how many monks there are in the world. The ancestor's merits are part of the creation. He is naturally the most powerful ancient saint in our eternal star field."
The old sage did not comment on Dao Yan's evaluation, and only asked:
"Then the Patriarch would like to ask you, when do you think you can surpass me?"
The question raised by the Xia Capital Ancient Sage was really sharp, and Dao Yan on the opposite side obviously did not expect it at all.
Although he felt strange in his heart, Dao Yan still held his head high, without any retreat in his eyes, and said in a solemn tone:
"In less than a hundred years, my disciples will definitely conquer the Holy Land!"
A hundred years of sanctification!
Such achievements may be nothing in the entire ancient history of spiritual practice.
After all, there are many races in the world, and for a very small number of races that are inherently powerful, the Holy Realm is probably just their starting point.
But for the human race, especially for the Eternal Star Territory, which has never been prosperous, such achievements are rare throughout the history of the ancient star.
If someone else had praised Haikou like this, the ancient sage of Xiadu would only think that he was arrogant, but the Dao Yan in front of him was so amazing and talented that everyone could see, and now he was even more motivated, which was unbelievable invisibly.
"Okay, very good!" Although the ancient sage of Xiadu didn't say much in response to Dao Yan's slightly arrogant words, his cheerful smile made Dao Yan feel the joy from his heart.
"If you have such determination, Grandmaster, I can safely send you on your way."
The ancient sage of Xiadu nodded with satisfaction, stroked his beard again and again, and sighed:
"If you don't even have the confidence to surpass me, a loser, you might as well just stay in the Eternal Star Territory for the rest of your life."
When he mentioned "loser", the expression on the old saint's face changed momentarily, but soon returned to normal.
"loser!?"
Hearing this, Dao Yan was shocked. He seemed to have discovered some huge secret. This seemed to be the past that the Patriarch had never revealed to his disciples.
The ancient sage of Xia Capital took the initiative to mention this matter, and obviously did not intend to hide it from the other party.
His old face showed a look of reminiscence, and he soon recounted the experience:
"In the past, Patriarch, although I was far inferior to you today, I was still a generational genius whose reputation spread throughout the Eternal Star Territory."
"At that time, I thought I was invincible and resolutely embarked on the journey to the only ancient road."
Obviously, even though many years have passed, those eventful years have not faded at all in the mind of the old saint and are as fresh as yesterday.
"It's a pity that in the end, the cruelty of reality finally made me understand the truth that there are people outside the world and there is a sky outside the world."
"In front of the truly talented people, the things I am proud of and rely on are so worthless. Even if I am lucky enough to survive and return to eternity, my cultivation will never improve."
The ancient sage of Xiadu smiled mockingly. Although he didn't say much about that experience, Daoyan could see regret and unwillingness in his now slightly cloudy eyes.
"If I set foot on the ancient road in the future, I will definitely avenge my ancestor!"
Daoyan promised in a sonorous tone.
But after hearing this, the Ancient Sage of Xia Capital opposite shook his head:
"Although that person is powerful, he is not an unparalleled hero after all. Why should you put that person in your eyes since you are determined to achieve the supreme fruit?"
In response, Dao Yan nodded, he understood the truth, and immediately said nothing more, just burying the matter deep in his heart.
But he had already made up his mind to resolve this karma for his ancestor in the future.
On the opposite side, the ancient sage of Xia Capital took the initiative to tell the story of his unbearable past to inspire Dao Yan, and now his goal has been achieved.
"May I ask the Patriarch, when can I set off?"
After a moment of silence, Dao Yan couldn't hold back his excitement, and immediately took the initiative to ask.
"You are quite impatient."
Facing the teasing words of the ancient sage of Xiadu, Daoyan rarely showed an embarrassed look on his face and scratched his head:
"I don't dare to hide it from the Patriarch. In the evolutionary fluid formula that I deduced, my disciple, there are several divine materials that will be difficult to find in eternity. Even if the Patriarch doesn't mention it, I, my disciple, will find an opportunity to leave."
In response to this, the old saint nodded, only pondered for a moment, and then said:
"Although I have lived a crazy life for many years, Patriarch, I am still a bit thin-faced in eternity. You should say goodbye to your master and all your fellow disciples and be prepared. Patriarch, I can send you to the five-color altar at any time."
"Disciple thanks the Patriarch!"
Dao Yan saluted solemnly, his eyes shining brightly. Obviously, Dao Yan was full of expectations for the most cruel trial in the legend.
…
In the end, Daoyan left eternity and went on the road alone, following in the footsteps of his predecessors, embarking on the most lonely journey.
In the past few decades, Daoyan has traveled to countless life sources and desolate star regions in the universe, and has fought against countless mysterious and powerful races.
Not only that, he didn't just rush towards the legendary first divine city along the way. He often stopped in search of rare minerals that could be used to refine the evolutionary fluid.
Although Dao Yan was powerful, he also had many close calls in the process.
After undergoing the baptism of blood and fire, his gains were naturally huge.
It extracts the supreme evolutionary fluid, cleanses itself, and is reborn.
At the same time, through successive battles, he consolidated his foundation, eliminated hidden dangers, and achieved perfection.
In the end, in less than a hundred years but only a few decades, Dao Yan successfully broke through the barrier of the holy realm and transformed into an extremely powerful saint.
On this day, the five-color divine light flashed, and Dao Yan's slightly embarrassed figure immediately fell out of the star gate opened by the five-color altar.
The moment he set foot here, he felt the majestic power of the ancient star under his feet. Even as a saint now, he seemed extremely small in front of that power.
