Guarding a reservoir? I am guarding the river of time!

When these words came out, Ye Qingran and others widened their eyes.

Ancestor? !

The next second.

A figure with gray hair and a slightly hunched figure walked out of the black cloud and looked down at everyone.

This hunched figure was the Bone Emperor, the Bone Emperor 50,000 years later!

He looked at Li Changtan, and a look of reminiscence appeared on his face, and asked: "Are you a descendant of the Dao Gu Shen Zong?"

"Replying to the ancestor, I am the 37th generation leader of the Dao Gu Shen Zong."

Hearing these words, the Bone Emperor also sighed. It turned out that so much time had passed, and the Dao Gu Shen Zong that he had founded had reached the 37th generation leader.

"The ancient precepts of the Dao Gu Shen Zong, the younger generation has never forgotten. For ten thousand years, the Dao Gu Shen Zong has been looking for the tree of time."

"But it has never been found."

"Please punish the ancestor."

Hearing these words, Ye Qingran's beautiful eyes were startled, and all the fog suddenly became clear at this moment!

She is the saint of Daogu Shenzong, so of course she knows some of the secrets of Daogu Shenzong.

The only ancient precept of Daogu Shenzong is to find the legendary "Wood of Time".

What she didn't expect was that one of the four emperors was actually the founder of their Daogu Shenzong, and she didn't expect that the four emperors were also looking for the Wood of Time!

"Don't blame you."

"Now I have found the Wood of Time."

"I will leave this world, and Daogu Shenzong will be handed over to you."

The Bone Emperor smiled. This was the first time he smiled in so many years. It might be because he found the Wood of Time, or it might be that they could finally leave here.

"Congratulations to the ancestor!"

Li Changtan knelt down, and the others also knelt down.

"Is the ancestor ready to take revenge?"

"Daogu Shenzong is willing to follow the ancestor and go through fire and water for the ancestor!"

Li Changtan knew that the ancestor was not from this continent, and seemed to have been exiled here by some powerful existence.

"No need."

"If you go, you will just be cannon fodder and won't change anything."

"Besides, I'm not going there for revenge, but to do something more important."

The Bone Emperor smiled.

Revenge?

He didn't hate the powerful man on the long river of time.

On the contrary, the Bone Emperor was very grateful to him.

If he hadn't exiled them to this time and space by mistake, perhaps they would never have been able to reach the realm of the Immortal King in their lifetime.

Fifty thousand years of searching, fifty thousand years of cultivation.

They have received a lot of opportunities in this time and space, and now they have touched the threshold of the Immortal King.

Now the Tree of Time has been found, and they can leave.

"But."

Li Changqin didn't understand.

Didn't the ancestor look for the Tree of Time for revenge?

"You must remember this."

"This world is much bigger and more vast than you think."

"Never be proud and complacent, and never think that you are invincible."

"You, including me, will always be just ants in the eyes of those supreme beings. You must learn to be respectful."

The former Bone Emperor was also a very proud person.

Since he met the mysterious man on the long river of time, his pride has disappeared, and he has become extremely low-key and learned to be respectful.

Awe is not fear.

This is a kind of wisdom.     A person who affects the flow of the long river of time with a wave of his hand and sends them to a time and space that is unknown how many years ago, shouldn't we be in awe?

What's more, he has gained a blessing in disguise, so he should not have this revengeful heart.

Hearing this, several people were stunned for a moment, as if they understood something.

The leader Li Changqin asked again: "Ancestor, you leave this world."

"How can we find you and follow your steps."

Hearing this, the Bone Emperor was silent for a while.

In fact, he could have directly extinguished their hope and told them not to come looking for him, but after thinking carefully, he decided to leave some hope in everything.

For the past 50,000 years, he had relied on the word "hope" to persevere.

If he had not always kept hope in his heart, he might have given up long ago, turned into a pile of yellow earth, and been buried forever in this world.

"If you really want to find me."

"If you can really practice to that day, you will be able to step into a place called the Long River of Time and go up along the Long River of Time."

"But you may meet a man."

"You must prepare the toll for crossing the river, and never conflict with him. You must respect and fear him."

"Because that man is the one who exiled me to this world, but he is not my enemy, let alone your enemy."

Speaking of this, the Bone Emperor paused: "You should regard him as your benefactor. If it weren't for him, I wouldn't come here, and there would be no Dao Gu Shen Zong. He is also your ancestor."

"When you see him, you have to call him the ancestor."

In fact, the Bone Emperor doesn't need to say so much.

Because crossing the Long River of Time requires at least the Heavenly Immortal Realm, and the entire Dao Gu Shen Zong can produce a person in the Tribulation Realm, which is probably the limit.

But, what if?

What if one day in the future, the Dao Gu Shen Zong can really produce a Heavenly Immortal?

That's not certain.

After saying this, the Bone Emperor waved his hand, and a purple-black wooden board flew out from his sleeve and landed in front of Li Changqin.

"This is an extra piece of the Wood of Time."

"You must remember that the Time Wood is indispensable for traveling through the long river of time."

"But this piece of Time Wood can only carry one person."

"If a person of destiny, the strongest person, is born in the Dao Gu Shen Zong in the future and is willing to pursue me, this piece of Time Wood will be left to him."

Hearing this, Li Changqin carefully put away the Time Wood.

"Okay, time is running out."

"You guys leave, I'm leaving soon."

"Every word I just said, I hope you remember it in your heart."

The Bone Emperor said.

"Every word the ancestor said will become the ancient teachings of the Dao Gu Shen Zong, and will be passed down until the strongest person of destiny mentioned by the ancestor appears and the Time Wood is handed over to him."

Li Changqin answered word by word.

"Let's go, no need to say more."

The Bone Emperor waved his hand to everyone, and the space fluctuated in the next second, and they were transmitted out of the forbidden area in an instant.

At this moment, Ye Qingran, who was standing behind Li Changtan, was staring at the forbidden area in front of her, lost in thought.

The words of the ancestor touched her heart.

Isn't the purpose of practicing Taoism to see a wider world?

A sense of ambition grew in her heart.

If the Dao Gu Shen Zong was going to produce a person of destiny, why couldn't it be her?

Even if it was not destined to be her, she would work hard to become the strongest person in the Dao Gu Shen Zong, ride the tree of time, go to the long river of time mentioned by the ancestor, and see a wider world.

And she also wanted to see with her own eyes the "other ancestor" who exiled the ancestor to this world.
