"Whisper" Suddenly, Chu Feng's eyebrows tightened, and a frown appeared on his face. He felt a mental force observing his body.
Noticing this change, Chu Feng quickly turned his body and directed his vigilant gaze towards the back. Then he discovered that from a distance, an old man was flying towards his direction.
This old man was actually blind. Although he couldn't see, his attire was quite decent, not overly luxurious, but very neat.
Especially his snow-white long hair, like a waterfall, cascaded down to his heels. His beard, although not as long as the hair, was also not short and was equally as white as snow, very clean.
"Hey, young man, are you here for the first time in this Unending Blood Sea?" The blind old man came up to Chu Feng and asked with a smile. He had the cultivation level of the Heaven Martial Eight Stages and was obviously a Realm Spirit Master.
And since he couldn't see with his eyes, he observed things with his mental force, which was understandable. So Chu Feng didn't blame him and politely replied, "Senior, I'm indeed here for the first time. I don't know why this place is so special?"
"This place has formed for a long time. The specific origin cannot be traced. There are multiple versions. Some say it was naturally formed, while others say it was created by a rare item. But the version I like the most is a legend from the ancient times." The blind old man stroked his snow-white beard and said with great pride.
"Ah? What kind of legend is it, Senior, could you tell me?"
Hearing the legend from the ancient times, Chu Feng was immediately curious. After all, the ancient times were a long and distant era, tens of thousands of years ago from now.
That was a time when martial arts was just beginning to prevail, but there were many strong beings, monsters were rampant, and it was a completely different era. A mysterious and full of legends and myths era.
It was said that various species were all over the world. Heaven spread the martial arts method down to all beings for them to understand. Whether humans, monsters, animals, or even plants, they could all understand the martial arts method.
And humans, with their powerful wisdom, quickly understood the martial arts method and obtained the energy of heaven and earth, having the strength to surpass other species and quickly becoming the rulers of the world.
However, along with humans, there was another species that also understood the martial arts method. They were different from monsters, different from fierce beasts, and even different from wild beasts. They had no less intelligence than humans and had noble bloodlines, and loved peace.
After they understood the martial arts method, they did not enjoy it alone. Instead, they began to spread it to various creatures. It has to be said, they shook the position of the human hegemony, but humans were not afraid of them because it was said that their strength was far stronger than that of humans.
However, this powerful and noble species became extinct after the ancient times and never disappeared again. So later generations called them "Ancient Creatures".
In conclusion, about that era, there was a lot of mystery, which led to people nowadays being very curious about that era.
Although about that era, it was difficult to distinguish truth from falsehood, most of it was passed down as myths and legends, but people still liked to inquire about those things from the ancient times, even Chu Feng was no exception.
"Hey, this story is long and complicated. It might overturn your understanding of the ancient times. I'm afraid you won't believe it after I tell it, and might think I'm talking crazy." The old man smiled.
"The events of the ancient times are long ago. What is true and what is false, who can determine?" Chu Feng smiled and then added, "Senior, go ahead without holding back. I'm willing to listen carefully."
"Haha, good. You this young man have some thoughts. So, I can tell you."
"It is said that in ancient times, it was the realm of ancient creatures. Because they were born with the ability to practice, they could utilize the energy of heaven and earth for their own purposes and possess incredible power. However, humans and other creatures did not possess this ability."
"At that time, the ancient creatures held supreme power. They regarded other species as slaves, toys, and pets. Due to the strength of the ancient creatures, humans and other races could only submit and live a life worse than that of pigs and dogs under the intimidation of the ancient creatures."
"But there were many people who did not want to continue living like this. Among them, there was one person who was very intelligent. He was deliberately captured by the ancient creatures and became their slave, but with his own wit, he quickly gained the trust of the ancient creatures and became a servant of an ancient king."
"A human in that era gained power and even stood above many ancient creatures. This was an incredible thing, and all of this was achieved thanks to his wisdom."
"But his wisdom was not limited to this, nor was his ambition. He followed the ancient king day and night, observing his cultivation, and finally one day, he comprehended the cultivation method of the ancient creatures and created a kind of cultivation method suitable for humans."
"He began to secretly cultivate, quickly gained the power of the ancient creatures, and he also discovered another power, a power that even the ancient creatures had not obtained."
"That was the power to open the door to another world and summon the creatures of that world."
"However, this power was not available to everyone. One must possess a special communication method, and later people called this communication method spirit power and this power as the barrier technique."
The elder said solemnly.
"Oh my god, according to what you said, wasn't this person the first person to create the martial cultivation method and the barrier technique?" Hearing this, Chu Feng was shocked, because what the elder said was indeed completely different from what he had heard before, and it truly overturned his perception.
"Shh, don't interrupt, listen to me finish." The elder placed his finger in front of his mouth to indicate to Chu Feng not to speak, and Chu Feng also hurriedly quieted down and continued to listen attentively.
"His power grew stronger and stronger. Eventually, one day, his strength surpassed that of countless ancient creatures, and only the ancient king could compete with him."
"He wanted to make humans equal to ancient creatures, but the ancient king naturally refused. Thus, an inevitable battle erupted."
"It is said that that battle lasted for several days. It was truly dark and gloomy, but in the end, the ancient king lost."
"After the ancient king died, his blood spilled into the sea, but it refused to dissipate for a long time. It even merged with the sea water, causing a certain area of the sea to become permanently red in color."
"But the person who defeated the ancient king also paid a certain price. One of his eyes was taken away by the ancient king and could never be restored."
