When the little thing saw the old man, he shouted in surprise: "Teacher, save me!"
The old man knocked its bald head: "I have warned you many times not to pry into other people's memories at will, but you just don't listen. You brought this result on yourself today."
"Teacher, I know I was wrong, please help me!" It looked aggrieved, and tears flowed from its big eyes, just like a child who had not grown up.
The old man looked back at Qin Fan and said calmly: "Let it go, it doesn't mean any harm."
Qin Fan looked at the old man warily and said coldly: "Where were you when it peeked into other people's memories, transformed into my closest relative, and tried to deceive me?"
"Why didn't you stop it then?"
"Now, its conspiracy has been exposed by me, and when it is about to be executed, you stepped forward to save it. Isn't it too easy for it?"
It was obvious that Qin Fan did not agree to let the weird thing go.
Especially knowing that this thing has an unfathomable teacher.
I just don’t know which faction of the Beidou Star Territory this old man is from.
The old man looked at Qin Fan with the same expression of neither sadness nor joy, and said calmly: "Young man, if you know its origin, I guarantee you will not want to kill it."
Qin Fan's eyes moved: "Oh, would you like to hear the details?"
The little thing also looked at the old man with wide eyes and asked curiously: "Teacher, where am I from? He just asked me what I am, but I don't even know what I am."
As it spoke, a look of extreme grievance appeared on its face.
The old man touched its bald head with his hand and said, "You are the world spirit of this small world!"
"That's why you can peek into other people's memories at will in this small world."
Qin Fan couldn't help but his eyes lit up: "World Spirit!"
"It turns out to be the legendary world spirit!"
World spirit, the spirit of one world, is infinitely close to the innate and acquired spirit.
This kind of creature only existed in legends, and it would be difficult for millions of years to breed one.
Moreover, only in those small worlds can this thing be nurtured.
In the big world like Qin Fan's, there is no such world spirit at all. In other words, the world spirit in the big world is the great road of heaven and earth.
World spirits have very miraculous talents, but records about them are very limited. After all, it is rare to see one in a million years.
Qin Fan only remembered one of his talents. The world spirit could easily detect the existence of the barrier and ignore it.
"Now, do you still want to kill it?" The old man gently stroked the world spirit's head and said calmly.
Of course Qin Fan would not kill a world spirit. If he could conquer it, it would be a priceless treasure.
However, Qin Fan still had doubts.
"Since it is a world spirit born in this small world, it must have existed for countless thousands of years. How can it recognize you as a teacher?"
"Are you not from the Beidou Star Region?"
There was a look of thought on the old man's face. After thinking for a long time, he seemed to remember something: "Beidou Star Territory... they are all miserable people!"
"If possible, try to leave them a way to survive. After all, their ancestors also made great achievements back then."
Ancestor?
Qin Fan was startled, looked at the old man, and asked in a deep voice: "Who are you?"
The old man stretched out his hand to bring the world spirit out of the shackles of the Forbidden Void, and sighed: "I am the tombkeeper of this emperor's tomb."
"What!"
Qin Fan was completely shocked.
"The tomb keeper of the emperor's tomb? Are you the legendary tomb keeper?" He thought of the legend of the tomb keeper, and felt excited. If he found the tomb keeper, many doubts would be solved.
"I'm not the tomb keeper, I'm just the tomb keeper of this imperial tomb." The old man shook his head in denial.
Not the tombkeeper... Qin Fan was a little disappointed.
However, he felt that the old man in front of him should know something.
"Old man, how many years have you been guarding here?" Qin Fan asked casually. He felt that this old man might be a descendant of ancient inheritance, and he might be hundreds of years old.
When Qin Fan asked him how old he was, the old man looked confused and said slowly: "I don't know how many years I have been guarding this imperial tomb. I have been guarding it since the day it was built."
"About a million years later, it was born, and I taught it how to speak, recognize, and some basic common sense."
Qin Fan couldn't help but widen his eyes, took a step back, and looked at the old man in disbelief.
"You said that you were already guarding here a million years ago?"
"Yes." The old man nodded affirmatively.
World Spirit shouted: "It turns out that I am already one million years old, so am I not an ancestor-level figure?"
The old man glanced at it: "A million years ago, you were just born with a ray of original consciousness. At that time, you were not truly born."
World Spirit asked curiously: "Teacher, according to your human calculations, how old am I now?"
The old man thought for a while and said, "It's about ten thousand years old."
"Haha, then I am also an ancestor-level figure." The world spirit became happy again, because it understood from other people's memories that the higher the generation, the more respected people are.
After saying that, it looked at Qin Fan as if to demonstrate, as if to say: Boy, call me ancestor.
Qin Fan had ignored its existence at this moment, focusing entirely on the old man.
Figures from a million years ago, maybe even longer.
To be able to live for such a long time, this is at least a powerful person who is above the True Immortal level in the Hedao Realm.
The most important thing is that he is probably a remnant of the great practice world that was buried by the years.
This is quite literally a living history book.
Qin Fan originally thought that this old man might be a descendant of those ancient cultivation traditions.
Unexpectedly, this was actually a living inheritance.
Qin Fan had a lot of questions to ask, but in the end, he didn't know what to ask.
"Old man, which emperor is buried in this tomb?"
Since Li Nianci is the impersonator of the world spirit, what she just said cannot be believed, and the emperor's tomb in this place will probably not be his.
However, he still wanted to ask and confirm.
The old man pondered for a while, then turned and walked into the golden door: "Come in and see for yourself!"
Qin Fan hesitated for a few seconds and then walked through the door.
After crossing the threshold, Qin Fan saw a different world before his eyes.
He actually came directly into a void, and in front of him was a cold and dead starry sky.
He was very familiar with all this, after all, not long ago he was floating in the starry sky for three full years.
"Isn't it the emperor's tomb? Why is it a door to the starry sky?" Qin Fan looked at the old man beside him and asked.
"This is the emperor's tomb." The old man said calmly.
Qin Fan frowned and watched intently.
He found that this starry sky was different from the stars in the universe. This starry sky was very small, with only a dozen stars suspended in the dry void in front of it.
Every star exudes a terrifying aura, and Qin Fan has no doubt that every bit of energy emanating from those stars can instantly kill a true immortal in the Hedao Realm.
He could feel that each star had its own will, as if it was inhabited by a terrifying creature.
