Cataclysm King.

Chapter 609: The Origin of Card Master Civilization and the Card King

"Hey, isn't that Senior Xu?"

Catalina and Old Man Xu are also very familiar with each other. The [Golden Coin of Destiny] given to the Lion Heart family was given by Old Man Xu.

So it can even be said that she was able to get here step by step because of that guidance.

Qin Rushi also knew him. He had seen the terrifying "death halo" of this mysterious senior at the Firefly Camp in the Warcraft Forest last time.

So when the two women saw this person appearing, their expressions became serious.

Ji Xun looked normal and said, "Come on, let's go take a look."

Now he can roughly understand what the death halo is all about.

Old Man Xu has lived for at least hundreds of thousands of years. The horror of the cause and effect involved in him is beyond the imagination of ordinary humans.

That is the cause and effect that concerns hundreds of millions of living beings and the entire Card Master civilization.

This is also the most important reason why people with weak fortunes will bring bad luck whenever they come into contact with him.

With that said, the three of them walked down the city wall.

"Grandpa, aren't we looking for stone tablets in the Southern Continent? Why are we going back to the Old Continent?"

"Oh, now the two dragon gods are about to decide the winner, and the military disaster in the southern continent is going to break out. If we don't run away now, when will we run away? Let's come back when things calm down here."

"oh."

"."

Old man Xu was as wretched as ever.

He has an instinctive premonition of crisis and the ability to avoid danger.

In the eyes of people who don’t understand, this is “covetous for life and afraid of death.”

Xie Guozhong on the side said nothing, as calm as a mountain.

The three of them lined up and walked in.

As soon as I entered the city, I heard someone from a roadside restaurant saying hello, "Senior Xu!"

The three of them looked up at the second floor window.

Che Er recognized Ji Xun immediately and said excitedly: "Mr. Ji Xun!"

Old man Xu's expression was a little dull, but he recognized it. But he seemed to have thought of something at the same time, and he muttered faintly: "Why do I remember that every time I meet this guy, nothing good happens."

The three of them went upstairs.

Ji Xun and others on the second floor of the tavern have been waiting for a long time.

"Senior Xu, Lao Xie, long time no see!"

Ji Xun's face was filled with happiness from the bottom of his heart. Whether it was Old Man Xu or Xie Guozhong, they were all close friends with him.

Old man Xu is still the same as before, as if he has almost forgotten the past, and he is neither cold nor indifferent.

Instead, he looked at the food and wine on the wine table, and his little eyes became a little brighter.

Xie Guozhong gave Ji Xun a firm hug: "You boy, you have changed so much. Why are you here? Haha, I said who dares to bring artillery to the southern continent, it turns out to be you."

"It's a long story."

Ji Xun also felt very emotional and said, "Lao Xie, it's great to see you alive."

Xie Guozhong was previously regarded as the God's Chosen Body by the 'Scarlet Corruption Seiadis', and he was destined to die.

Jia Yu set up a trap in the underworld passage and rescued him.

This sight was like seeing a friend who had come back from the dead.

Naturally, I was filled with emotions.

As Ji Xun spoke, he looked at Che Er, who had sword-browed eyebrows and starry eyes, and said with emotion: "Che Er, your light sword intention is really exaggerated right now."

Che Er had not seen Ji Xun for many years and looked very excited, "Ah, Mr. Ji Xun, can you see this?"

He has not forgotten that the [Relic: Flashing Heart-piercing Sword] on his waist was given by this person.

Ji Xun smiled.

When we meet old friends, the old days come to mind, and there seems to be too much to say.

Qin Rushi and Catalina beside them also greeted Old Man Xu, but apparently, the old man had already forgotten.

When meeting Old Man Xu this time, Ji Xun deliberately brought two disciples with him.

Darcy and Isabel were also curious about what kind of big shot his teachers and wives had waited for for so long.

The two of them stood behind Ji Xun and looked at Old Man Xu and the other three. Isabel finally couldn't help but asked in a low voice: "Darcy, who are these people?"

A wretched old man, a strong man like a farmer, and a handsome but a bit poor swordsman.

It doesn't look like anything special at all.

Darcy shook his head and whispered: "I don't know him either."

But for some reason, he felt a sense of familiarity when he saw these three people.

At this moment, Ji Xun said hello and turned around to introduce the two disciples.

Darcy and Isabel respectfully saluted the three friends of the teacher in front of them.

This meeting, the atmosphere instantly

Old Man Xu is one of the founders of the "Illuminating Hermitage".

When he saw Darcy, he immediately realized that this was the light chaser of this generation.

But the emotion in his eyes flashed for a moment, and the old face returned to normal.

He has seen too many generations of light chasers, as if the figures of countless generations of light chasers in his memory are now overlapping in his eyes. Although they are different people, they share the same heritage. Under the same mask, there are pioneers who share the same belief and pursue light and hope.

When Xie Guozhong saw the familiar mushroom head shape, his expression was startled.

He glanced at Ji Xun again, as if he wanted to confirm something, "Is this...?"

Ji Xun nodded.

The corners of Xie Guozhong's eyes suddenly moistened slightly. Seeing the new generation of light chasers meant that Jia Yu was dead.

The boy who followed him around and called him "captain" is gone forever.

"Why"

A complicated sigh.

Che Er is the "time talker" of the monastery. He saw Darcy greeting him and returned the greeting: "'Time talker' has met the leader. "

Darcy nodded.

After saying hello, Ji Xun asked Old Man Xu and the three of them to sit down.

They are friends, there is no need to hold a big banquet, a sumptuous table of wine and meat is enough.

Seeing the teacher and the guests chatting lively, Isabel was still a little confused. She poked her senior brother with her elbow and asked in a low voice: "Idiot Darcy, I just heard them say. What kind of leader are you?"

Darcy responded: "I'm not sure either. The teacher only told me recently."

Isabel pursed her lips, "Oh."

The little princess of Andre's family didn't see anything special about Old Man Xu and the other three, and asked quietly: "Do you see anything special about the teacher's three friends? Why did I just hear the teacher say that the swordsman Is it the ‘Sword Intent of Time’ that you understand?”

You must know that she has just touched the fighting spirit, which is already considered a top talent at her level.

But the swordsman seemed to be not much older than himself. Why did the teacher always encounter some monsters around him?

Darcy said: "Teacher's two friends are both very powerful. But I can't understand that old man."

"."

Isabel suddenly felt a little frustrated.

Even though my stupid senior brother always undermines his self-confidence, his judgment is always right.

He said it was great, but it was really great.

But I didn't notice it at all.

Isabel pursed her lips.

Thinking about the past few days when he returned to the clan and competed everywhere, he was obviously invincible at the same level. Even the clan brothers who were one level above him had received a heavy beating.

This allowed her to regain some confidence.

Thinking that there is only one weird brother.

Unexpectedly, just a few days after not playing, I met another one.

Darcy knew what the junior sister was thinking, and reminded her: "Listen carefully to the teacher and the others, and stop talking nonsense."

Isabel listened to this with a faint look in her eyes, but she also sat quietly in the corner.

Of course she knew that the teacher brought her here to see the world.

I don’t know since when, the little princess of the Andre family found that the confidence she once thought brought by the aristocratic knowledge was shattered in the days of following the teacher.

It seems that the more I know, the more I feel ignorant.

"It turns out that so many things have already happened in the Old Continent and the Eastern Wasteland."

"I just said that I heard someone say that the leader of the rebel army is a Valkyrie who can 'go down to earth'. It turns out it is Miss Qin."

"Hahaha, no wonder we have heard about it all the way here. The Old Continent is full of gold and safe, which attracts countless people to go there. It turns out that you have controlled the Old Continent. It's really amazing. Even the three major kingdoms have not been able to do it. Brother Ji Xun, you guys actually solved the matter quietly."

"So, brother Ji Xun, are you planning to become emperor?"

"."

A few people were drinking and chatting.

It’s been a long time since we met old friends, and there’s so much to talk about.

Compared with the wonderful experiences of Ji Xun and the others, the experiences of Old Man Xu and the others were much simpler.

To sum up, I ran away everywhere and then came here.

But Ji Xun knew that that kind of escape was Old Man Xu's unique destiny. He was running around looking for the [Forbidden Ruins Stone Tablet] and retrieving his memories sealed all over the world.

Old man Xu has no interest in politics or military affairs. He is just like a famine victim, immersed in food.

Che Er followed the old man around and learned this silent character.

However, Xie Guozhong is still as cheerful and talkative as before.

When he heard that Ji Xun was going to proclaim himself emperor, he was very excited and said he would stay to watch the ceremony.

Of course Ji Xun also felt very good.

This old Xie is not only a friend, but more importantly, he also has the character of kingly power.

If the entire plane is a big chessboard, all living beings are the chess pieces. So at Ji Xun's current height, he can already see some of the thoughts of the "chess player".

Being able to stay with Old Man Xu for so long without dying means that Old Xie is also an important chess piece that can affect the situation in the plane.

After a while, after they had had enough wine and food, Qin Rushi and Catalina knew that Ji Xun and Old Man Xu had something to say, so they left first.

The two disciples, Darcy and Isabel, acted as landlords for their teacher, received Xie Guozhong and Che Er, and went to the city for a walk together.

Ji Xun and Old Man Xu were the only ones left on the table.

And little Ivan, whose food plates were already piled up in front of him.

Ji Xun held up his wine glass and drank a small drink with the old man.

What we are talking about now are some secrets that others cannot hear.

"Senior, I went to the Duoqian Mountains before and saw the stone tablet you left hundreds of thousands of years ago."

"What mountains?"

"Well, that's not important. What's important is that I saw some cipher messages that you should have left."

"."

Ji Xun has long been accustomed to Old Man Xu's confused expression.

He knew that the old man would not be able to remember his own size without being stimulated in a targeted manner.

Some of Ji Xun's conjectures still need to be verified.

And this old senior came to the tuba, just in time to help him clear up his doubts.

Having said this, Ji Xun raised his hand, and some mysterious symbols appeared in front of him.

These are several high-level demonic words.

It was an advanced text that I couldn’t understand before and my brain couldn’t remember. Now after igniting the divine fire, it can be reproduced clearly and accurately.

As long as it is text, it can be encrypted.

This is the encrypted code word that Old Man Xu left behind that clear sentence.

Ji Xun knew that this was probably the key "key" to unlocking his memory.

Just like the translations of many religious scriptures, if a few encrypted sentences of high-level demonic language were to be translated into human words, it would probably require countless books to record the huge content. When Old Man Xu saw the encrypted text floating in mid-air in front of him, it seemed as if the memories that had been stored in his brain for countless years were activated, and his expression suddenly stiffened.

Ji Xun has seen old man Xu in this state several times, so it's not surprising.

It's just that the brain couldn't digest the massive amount of information for a while, and it was a little slow.

Ji Xun was not in a hurry and drank wine leisurely.

Nearly half an hour later, a low sigh suddenly came from my ears: "You actually lit the divine fire."

Ji Xun looked up and saw that Old Xu was still the same Old Man Xu, but his eyes were already full of wisdom.

Ji Xun knew that this "large number" had logged in.

He seemed to be greeting another old man Xu and said with a smile: "Senior, long time no see."

As soon as Old Man Xu regained his memory, his wise eyes seemed to have penetrated everything.

He guessed Ji Xun's idea of ​​proclaiming himself emperor, and saw everything clearly, and murmured: "It seems that you already know some historical truths."

Check out the 16-9 book bar to see the correct version!

Ji Xun raised his eyebrows: "Yes. So, senior, do you think there are any flaws in my plan?"

A trace of relief and approval for his courage appeared on Old Man Xu's face: "Since you have decided to take this step, this is the best choice. However, the risk is very high. You have thought about it, once you are caught by the 'plane supervisor' 'If you watch, you will die."

"You can't just keep shrinking your head and not daring to see the world just because of danger."

Ji Xun smiled nonchalantly: "Besides, someone has to try it."

At this moment, he felt a little bit more comfortable when Jia Yu told him those secrets.

That kind of loneliness in the whole world where only you know that secret and can't share it is really frustrating.

And the old man Xu in front of him may be the only person in the entire card master plane who can share this secret.

Having someone to communicate with seems to make me feel a lot better all of a sudden.

Thinking of this, Ji Xun got straight to the point and asked: "So, if you are promoted to a 'higher god', you will definitely die?"

There are still several key issues that need to be confirmed in his layout.

"right."

Old man Xu gave an accurate answer.

When Ji Xun heard this, the corner of his mouth curled up.

In other words, his previous conjectures were correct.

The dead dragon Marodis was the bait left by Emperor Lanlingst to share the firepower, and it was also a warning.

Remind those who come after you that the "upper god" is a danger warning line.

After a pause, Old Man Xu continued: "But to be precise, as long as you condense your godhead, you will be noticed by the 'plane monitor'. Once you are promoted to a high-level god, you will be regarded as a threat and be completely eliminated. The Titan God Clan We are not allowed to have such a strong person in the card master plane."

Sure enough, it is related to "Titan".

When Ji Xun heard this, he frowned: "Why not allowed?"

If the concentrated godhead would be noticed, then the matter is more serious than expected.

Old Man Xu shook his head and said: "I don't know either. I have only awakened part of the memory, and I can't give you an accurate answer. Once I fully awaken the memory, I will be noticed immediately."

"."

Ji Xun was not surprised when he heard this.

Old Man Xu's rank must also be extremely high. He was qualified to help Emperor Lanlingst hundreds of thousands of years ago, and he was probably already a mid-level **** at that time.

Now it seems that it should be a higher god.

Just in order not to be exposed, he sealed himself with some secret method.

Hearing this, Ji Xun breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time he immediately felt a sense of crisis.

I breathed a sigh of relief because I didn't have to fight alone because I had a strong companion like Old Man Xu. This old-timer has actually been secretly sharing the huge pressure on the card master civilization.

The sense of crisis is that such a powerful senior has to hide himself like a rat in the sewer to survive. This shows that the opponent is really ridiculously strong.

Ji Xun asked a few more questions, some got answers, but most didn't.

As Mr. Xu himself said, he only awakened part of his memory.

Ji Xun was not surprised. At this time, he asked the question he had wanted to ask for a long time: "Senior, I want to see the complete fifty-three stone tablets. Do you know how to get there?"

All the secrets are recorded on fifty-three stone tablets. If you want to know those secrets, it is best to go and see them in person.

And Bai Qiu said that the Forbidden Ruins Stone Tablet was summoned by Old Man Xu.

Old Man Xu was not surprised by Ji Xun's thoughts, and without being verbose, he said the method: "The key to the place where the gods are buried is always with you."

"."

Ji Xun looked at little Ivan who was eating and drinking.

Now it is confirmed from Old Man Xu's words that this little guy is the personification of "the origin of the card master's plane space".

In fact, he had already guessed it.

Ivan was born from one of the four black coffins.

The four black coffins are relics that Emperor Lanlingster said are important to the advancement of the [JOKER] sequence.

That time they were trapped in the mirror space by the people from the Southern Continent, and by chance they entered a special space with fifty-three stone tablets.

But after trying countless times, Ji Xun was never able to go there again.

Apparently there's still something missing.

After asking this question, Old Man Xu answered his question directly: "What you lack is your perception of time."

It's definitely too late to realize it now. Fortunately, there is a senior who is proficient in the law of time right in front of him.

Ji Xun said: "Then I'll trouble you, senior."

Old Man Xu nodded, a glimmer of light appeared in his turbid eyes, and immediately, the time around him seemed to have stopped.

The dust in the air, the flying bits of food, and the hops rising from the beer were all frozen in front of my eyes.

Ji Xun looked at Ivan again and saw a familiar scene.

It was a strange and bizarre space.

Like a cemetery, it was desolate and silent.

Fifty-three black stone tablets appeared in front of him.

This is the "Place of Burial of Gods".

Ji Xun came to this mysterious space again and exhaled a deep breath.

He knew that he was about to come into contact with the ultimate secret of the card master's civilization.

The pieces of [Forbidden Ruins Stone Tablets] stood in front of me, and the mysterious inscriptions that I had once been unable to understand were now flooding into my mind.

It's like a puzzle with pieces of fragmentary information. When you connect them together, a complete group comes into view.

There seems to be no time flowing here.

Ji Xun didn't know how long he had been watching.

But he only felt that even though he had ignited the divine fire, the huge amount of information pouring into his mind still made his thoughts feel stiff and laborious.

The stone tablets record the deeds of each demon **** during his lifetime. The content on just one tablet seems to be as long as a thick history book that takes countless years to read.

Ji Xun knew that this was the "history" of the card master's plane.

Those are the traces of existence left by countless splendid civilizations in time.

But he did not read the deeds of those demon gods carefully, but first looked at the messages on the stone tablets left by the predecessors of Emperor Lanlingst.

The thoughts in his mind were scattered and he took fifty-three stone tablets into his eyes.

With this look, the ultimate secret of the world became clear to him for the first time.

"The brave men of future generations, if you can see the message I left, you must be the inheritor of the [JOKER] sequence. Congratulations, you have touched the ultimate secret of this world. I have discovered the truth of the world and left it here . You can see it, which proves that you also have the courage to face that despairing secret."

"Our card master plane is just a hunting ground for the Cronus Titan."

"The growth and advancement of extraordinary beings is actually the process of absorbing the power of the universe and continuously strengthening themselves. This kind of absorption has an upper limit after all. This upper limit is the plane itself. If you want to advance from the upper level of **** to the 'true god', It is necessary to absorb the original power of the entire plane. That will destroy the entire plane and wipe out all life. This is the origin of the protracted struggle between the Card Master Civilization and the Titan Protoss."

"."

When Ji Xun saw the words left by Lanlingst, he instantly connected the missing cause and effect in his mind.

Before the Talon Empire, there was a chaotic era when the old gods ruled the world.

Before the Era of Chaos, there was another "Era of Great Collapse".

The origin of Kashi civilization originated from that era.

It was a terrifying era that only existed in legends, where the gods fought in a melee and caused the plane to collapse.

People only know that a shocking war took place in that ancient era, but they don't know why that war happened.

Fifty-three stone tablets bear the names of the gods who fell in the war that lasted for countless years, and also record what happened that year.

Ji Xun put fifty-three stone tablets together, and a void appeared in front of him.

This is not a peaceful void.

The void is filled with various explosions, destruction and regeneration. It is an incomprehensible mysterious world.

Countless powerful civilizations collided, the high-latitude plane collapsed, and a small piece of debris flew out.

Like the dots of starlight in the summer night sky, it is so small and ordinary.

This is the original card master plane.

This is an ownerless small plane born in the broken universe. Because there are relics from high-latitude planes, as time goes by, creatures also appear on the plane.

Humans, dragons, elves, dwarves, demons, etc. all kinds of intelligent life.

The plane has a name, it's called 'Talon'.

It means hope.

The creatures on the plane have also developed their own brilliant civilizations.

In civilization, gods who condensed their divine personality also appeared.

Until one day later, a giant with golden streaks all over his body, who the gods of the Talon plane looked up to, discovered this ownerless plane during an inspection, and everything changed.

That was the Cronos Titan.

One of the most powerful high-level gods in this universe.

They regard this new Talen plane as a hunting ground for the Titans.

Countless Titans came to this plane. They enslaved all indigenous creatures, including humans, and became the overlords of the plane.

And a new plane with complete laws means that a true **** can be born.

The Titan Protoss also arranged for suitable tribesmen to forcibly absorb the origin of the plane.

Once the new Titan True God appears, the Talon Plane will be completely destroyed.

A powerful human **** saw through the Titans' conspiracy, and he led humans and other races in the plane to resist to the death.

Then this powerful human **** killed countless Titans, demons, evil gods, and surrendered traitors.

He was called "JOKER" by later generations.

Later, the Titans on the Talon plane found that they could not kill the increasingly powerful human god.

Finally, a powerful Titan True God descended on the plane.

That battle was fought in darkness and lasted for countless years.

The plane collapsed and countless gods fell.

In the end, JOKER used his great supernatural power to kill the Titan True God.

The Great Collapse Era also came to an end.

The blood of the Titan God's corpse seeped into the plane and was hidden deep in the ground. Once the true God died, the Titans' talent of "inducing the gods to fall" was reversed and the gravity hung upside down.

JOKER sealed his seven godheads and stored them in seven mantra pots.

For the continuation of human civilization, JOKER created a promotion system that allows humans to gain extraordinary power without belief.

He used his companions who fought side by side and the corpses of gods who killed the enemy to create the card master's fifty-two demonic sequences.

This is the origin of the card master civilization.

After that terrifying divine battle, the Talon plane could no longer survive. The remaining humans and other creatures burrowed into the ground through the cracks in the earth, and this is how they continued.

Later, the remnant souls of the dead gods gathered together again, and there were all kinds of strange evil gods and old rulers in the "Era of Chaos".

When Ji Xun saw this, the historical line of the world in his mind was finally complete.

It turns out that the Card Master plane is really just an inconspicuous one among the countless planes in the universe.

"The world is so big"

he muttered to himself.
