C724

The sarcophagus calmed down and did not answer Xiao Yu's question. Only after a long while did another voice sound out. "Hehe, the world is indeed in chaos. For many people, this might be an unprecedented calamity, but for some people, this is a golden age where no price can be paid!"

"What do you mean?" Xiao Yu frowned. The Holy Ancestor of Xiao Family's words had obviously jumped a little too quickly, and just now, he was even talking about the lifespan of a Great Emperor and the reappearance of his Dao God Palace.

Moreover, from the meaning behind his words, it seemed that there was some sort of important meaning within the coming chaotic world.

"With your current cultivation level, even if I were to explain it to you, you wouldn't be able to understand. Holy Ancestor of Xiao Family's voice sounded as if it was filled with the vicissitudes of life, and she said indifferently, "You only need to know that the reason why I have persisted and struggled until this day, is to wait for the arrival of this life!"

Xiao Yu frowned even more, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end, he did not say it out loud.

Furthermore, he was somewhat concerned about what was attracting this Holy Ancestor of Xiao Family. Could it be that the world was in chaos, and that it was worth it for him to live for ten thousand years, waiting for this life to come?

It was not hard to imagine that not only did he not reach the Monarch Stage, he had lived for ten thousand years, and the price he paid was definitely not small.

Even if he had to do this, he would wait for this life to come. Just what was attracting him in this life?

"Fine, I'll tell you something." The Holy Ancestor of Xiao Family's voice continued to come from the sarcophagus. His voice suddenly became a little indifferent as he said, "At this moment, you must be thinking how I can live for ten thousand years without reaching the Monarch Stage."

Xiao Yu did not speak, but he felt it was strange. Although he guessed that the Holy Ancestor of Xiao Family must have paid a certain price, he did not know what the price was.

"You have already visited the Holy Mountain of our Xiao Family. Have you felt anything different from before?" The Holy Ancestor of Xiao Family continued to speak, his voice becoming colder and colder.

Hearing these words, Xiao Yu's face immediately became ugly.

The difference between Holy Mountain? At the first moment, he thought about the strange corrosive power in his Holy Mountain. At the beginning, the corrosive power almost completely occupied his entire body, and if it wasn't for the fact that his Indestructible Yin-yang Scripture was extremely profound and strengthened, that kind of power would have probably corroded his body long ago.

Although Xiao Yu did not know what that power was, he instinctively loathed it from the bottom of his heart.

As for the power of the Kun Peng, it belonged to a type of source energy. Moreover, the source energy clearly didn't leave behind any malicious intent towards the Kun Peng. It was harmless to humans, so it couldn't possibly be the power of the Kun Peng.

Now that he thought about it, that kind of strange power was most likely due to some trick done by the Xiao Family in the Holy Mountain.

"It seems like you understand what I mean!" Holy Ancestor of Xiao Family's voice seemed to carry a trace of a smile, but that smile was enough to send chills down one's spine.

"Kacha ?"

At the same time, the stone coffin that had been quietly sitting in the main hall moved. The lid of the coffin slowly moved away from the top. As it moved, the lid rubbed against the stone coffin, letting out an ear-piercing scream.

Xiao Yu immediately became alert, staring intently at the sarcophagus.

Holy Ancestor of Xiao Family, a person who had lived for ten thousand years, was definitely a terrifying existence. Even though he still had all sorts of methods in his hands, his heartbeat still quickened as a oppressive aura enveloped his entire body.

"Crack!"

A moment later, the sarcophagus was fully opened. A pale-faced man with a weak aura sat up and looked at Xiao Yu with a strange smile.

The moment he saw this person, Xiao Yu's entire body turned cold, as though he had fallen into an icehouse.

This person had lived for ten thousand years, and logically speaking, he had not reached Monarch Stage, so he could die at any time. After living for such a long time, in Xiao Yu's imagination, this should be an old man whose life force had completely vanished, with half of his body buried in the ground.

But at this moment, what appeared in front of him was a young face. This face was somewhat handsome, somewhat devilish, and did not look any older than him.

Other than the fact that his breath was weak, his body seemed to be devoid of any life, and his face was as pale as a sheet of paper, this person was a young man in his early twenties.

Many people who have cultivated for a long time can also maintain their young appearance. To test how long a person has lived, one must look at their bones before they know their true age.

Even though Xiao Yu was currently unable to use the bone viewing technique on this person, he was certain that this person had not lived for ten thousand years, or even hundreds of years!

As a Zhizun realm cultivator from the past, he had good taste. Even without looking at the bones, he could roughly tell a person's age!

This was also the reason why he felt scared. It was simply too strange for an old monster that had lived for tens of thousands of years to have such a young body!0

"Is it strange?" The young man in the coffin had a ghastly pale face, without the slightest trace of blood. He was like a corpse, yet he exuded an unusual sense of beauty.

He revealed a pale smile to Xiao Yu, and said: "I haven't reached the Monarch Stage, and in this ten thousand years, in order to survive, I paid too much of a price. You have entered the Holy Mountain before, so you should be able to feel something whenever you see me now!"

Xiao Yu recovered from his shock, and after this reminder, he suddenly realized that the person in front of him had an aura that he was very familiar with, and that aura was exactly the same as the corrosive power within the Holy Mountain!

His expression became abnormally unsightly. With his knowledge from his previous life, when he looked at the person in front of him again, he already had a rough understanding of what had happened.

"Ten thousand years! For people like us who have yet to reach the Monarch Stage, wanting to live for ten thousand years is practically impossible. "

The pale-faced young man inside the sarcophagus sighed and said: "Ten thousand years ago, I should have already died, but in that life, I missed a chance and was unwilling, so I have to live another ten thousand years, waiting for this life to come. For this, I have to pay a price!"

Xiao Yu was silent, and did not speak, because he already knew how this Holy Ancestor survived. He also knew why this Holy Ancestor paid so much attention to him before, protected him from the three great king's hands, and even wanted to personally meet him.

"Ten thousand years ago, I chanced upon a strange technique. This technique can let me live for an unlimited amount of time, and even if I haven't reached the Monarch Stage, I can still live for another ten thousand years!" The young man in the sarcophagus stood up as he spoke, and then stepped out of the sarcophagus.

"All these years, I used that kind of strange method and placed a secret curse in the Holy Mountain. As long as you enter the mountain, you will be eroded by that kind of secret curse!" As this young man, who was also the Holy Ancestor of Xiao Family, walked towards Xiao Yu, he said, "Those who are eroded by the secret curse, their bodies will gradually undergo a change. This change will make their bodies more and more compatible with mine!"
