calm.Yuan Chenglong, Fu Yousheng, and Cheng Tianjiao looked at each other, recalling the events of that year.When they received the news that an ancient relic had appeared, they formed three teams an...Hearing this question, the old man's aged and weathered face clearly fluctuated.

He glanced at Fang Yu and then looked down at himself.

The old man was still wearing the same ragged clothes he had on years ago. His hair was a mess of gray and white, making him look like a beggar.

But there was still determination in his eyes, and the air around him didn't feel like that of a beggar.

"My identity," the old man pointed at himself, then looked at Fang Yu.

Fang Yu didn't speak, just nodded, staring at the old man.

The old man's brows furrowed, his face etched with a look of deep concentration as if he couldn't remember.

Fang Yu remained silent, patiently waiting.

"I remember, back in my day, I was the supreme commander of the human race's armies, leading troops in all directions and battling against various powerful clans. I won every battle! "The old man said excitedly, his voice filled with passion. "I chopped down countless enemy heads, shaking the world, making those clans extremely fearful!"

"That's amazing!" Fang Yu looked at the crazy old man, his eyes wide with wonder.

"Of course I'm formidable, or how else could I have slain dragons and assassinated immortal kings" the old madman chuckled.

Fang Yu looked at the old man again.

The old man now is hunched and weathered, still dressed in rags.

No matter how you look at it, you can't find the imposing and powerful aura of the human great beauty he described.

But Fang Yu was not unconvinced by the old madman's words.

He just felt puzzled.

If the old madman's identity is truly as he claims, then why has he fallen to such a state of poverty

"I, I seem to have gotten it wrong. I'm not the human race's great general, am I I seem to be just a deputy general, or maybe just a commander-in-chief." The crazy old man suddenly looked puzzled and muttered to himself, "But if I'm just a commander-in-chief, how could I have slain dragons and assassinated immortal kings No, that's not right. I definitely am not the commander-in-chief, I am the great general!"

"That war back then, was I involved Of course I was involved. But what exactly was my role How many enemies did I kill"

"No, no, I didn't."

The old man suddenly started mumbling to himself incoherently, his words a jumbled mess that was impossible to understand.

His face was full of confusion, and there was still pain in his eyes.

Moments later, the old madman clasped his hands to his head and buried it in the ground, rubbing his forehead against the earth repeatedly.

Seeing the old man's appearance, Fang Yu frowned standing before him.

When he first saw the old man, he thought the old man was pretending to be crazy, not truly insane.

It wasn't until they met again today that he realized the old man might actually be mentally unstable.

The old madman spoke with uncertainty about his own words.

"Click click click"

The old man was still frantically rubbing his head on the ground, obviously in great pain.

Fang Yu stepped forward, squatted down, and wanted to help the old man up.

But at that moment, the old man suddenly raised his head and looked at Fang Yu in front of him, his eyes wide open.

At this moment, a tremendous change came over him, both in his eyes and expression.

The entire person's aura was completely different from before, becoming extremely domineering.

"Fang Yu, you have successfully merged with the Great Dao Spirit Body, the Great Dao Divine Eye, and the Source Crystal." The crazy old man spoke, his voice low and deep.

Fang Yu knew that the crazy old man now was not the same person as before.

He didn't speak, he just stared at the crazy old man in front of him.

"Don't think you've reached the end, in fact, you've just taken your first step." The old man continued, "Everything you've experienced in the lower planes is just a trial for you."

Perhaps you think that staying in the Qi Refining Stage is a torment.

But on the contrary, that's a perfect protection. If you don't stay in the Qi Refining Stage, the opponents you face might be thousands or even tens of thousands of times stronger than the ones you encounter now.

"What exactly do you want from me" Fang Yu frowned and asked, "No matter what you want me to do, at least be clear about it. Don't keep me in the dark."

“We have never deliberately asked you to do anything, nor given any guidance,” the old man said, “All your actions are your own choices.”

"This is what that person thinks, they don't want to force you to do anything, everything is up to you to decide."

Upon hearing this, Fang Yu remembered what his master had told him back then.

The expression basically means the same thing.

Of course, after living for so many years, Fang Yu's every action was indeed a choice of his own. He did what he wanted and didn't do what he didn't want to do.

It's just that some behaviors lead to consequences, and when you connect them together, it feels like everything is arranged by fate.

"I won't tell you what kind of opponents you'll encounter later," the old man said, "Everything is for you to discover and handle yourself."

"What is the meaning of your appearance" Fang Yu frowned and asked.

"I'm going to give you the last item," the old man said.

There is still something.

Fan Yu's face changed slightly, looking at the old man who had gone mad.

The old madman flipped his right palm open, and a light emanated from the center of his palm.

From the radiance, a sphere about the size of a fist coalesced, glimmering with an azure glow.

"This is the Great Dao Spirit Pearl," the crazy old man said, "After you obtain the Great Dao Spirit Pearl, your Great Dao spirit body will be complete."

Between their words, the old man gently pushed with his right hand.

The Dao Spirit Pearl flew straight towards Fang Yu.

Fang Yu wanted to reach out and take it, but the Dao Lingzhu suddenly accelerated.

"Whoosh"

The Great Dao Spirit Pearl transformed into a beam of light and directly entered Fang Yu's body.

However, Fang Yu did not feel anything unusual.

"This is the last thing he gave you, and there will never be another one." the old man said.

Fang Yu's eyes flickered.

He knew very well that the "him" the old man was talking about was the unspeakable one.

"I want to know, what are the limitations of the Great Dao Spirit on me, and when will they be lifted" Fang Yu looked at the crazy old man and asked.

Upon hearing this question, the old man's eyes changed noticeably.

He looked at Fang Yu, then glanced up at the sky, let out a long sigh, and said, "As far as I know, it shouldn't be too long."

"Can't it be lifted yet" Fang Yu frowned slightly and asked.

"I told you, these restrictions are a protection for you," the old man said. "When the restrictions are gone, the protection is gone."

Of course, if he knew your current level, he would be very pleased.

"When can I see him" Fang Yu asked.

The old madman glanced at Fang Yu, shook his head, and said, "I don't know, he definitely wants to meet you, but he may not have the chance."

Fang Yu narrowed his eyes slightly and remained silent.

"Alright, I've given you the Great Dao Spirit Pearl. It's time for me to go." The old man seemed to let out a long sigh as he spoke.

"Where are you going" Fang Yu asked.

"Where am I going, hehe" The old man laughed and shook his head, seeming to have returned to his eccentric state. "I never existed in the first place, so I can go anywhere."

Hearing that, Fang Yu became even more confused.e of annihilation even if it were reduced to nothingness.However... at this moment, the desolate expanse had absorbed energy for a long time but hadn't received any primal force.Why is this!Red Lotus...
