"Meet the ancestor."

"Meet the ancestor."

All members of the Li family bowed quickly and the scene became quiet.

Qin Jinnian also narrowed his eyes and looked at this Source Realm master.

The old man was wearing an ordinary white practice robe, with a slightly hunched back and gray hair on his temples. He looked no different from an old man taking a walk in the park.

But at this moment, he just stood casually in the air with his hands behind his back, which brought huge pressure to Qin Jinnian.

This was the first human Origin Realm that he had seen. Just in terms of aura, it felt like he was even stronger than those Origin Realm beings from the Abyss.

"Um."

The old man responded, then looked Qin Jinnian up and down, and said, "Boy, other things are fine, but this matter is of great importance. If you don't explain it clearly, I'm afraid you won't be able to leave."

"Meet Senior Li."

Although he was at the Source Realm, Qin Jinnian was naturally not afraid and continued to smile. He first bowed his hands in greeting, and then said with a smile: "This time, the purpose of this junior is to exchange information."

“I can’t change it.”

The old man shook his head and said, "The information you want to exchange is related to the great secret of my Li family, so I can't tell you. But the information you said is also very important, and I want to know it. So, if you don't want to exchange it, can you tell me?"

Qin Jinnian was stunned for a moment and frowned slightly.

After pondering for a while, he said, "The purpose of the four families stirring up trouble is related to the secret of the Li family?"

"That's right." The old man nodded frankly.

"Then... let's change it? For example, how does the other party plan to harm Gaia's consciousness?"

"I can't tell you."

"Not possible?"

"Um."

"Then we can always tell you the other party's ultimate goal, right? There is no need for specific methods and processes, just the ultimate goal... that is, what that person wants to do to Gaia. We can always tell you, right?"

Qin Jinnian asked with a frown.

The old man thought about it, and finally nodded and said, "That's fine."

Qin Jinnian breathed a sigh of relief. This was also possible.

"Okay, let's exchange."

"You go first."

Qin Jinnian said without hesitation: "Ancestor Fuyao."

"What?"

The old man's expression suddenly changed and his eyes suddenly became sharp. Qin Jinnian felt as if the heaven and earth were about to collapse in an instant. Terrible power surged out from the old man's shriveled body.

Obviously, it was not just Qin Jinnian who felt the pressure. Many of the gods in the Li family also felt the pressure. Their faces changed, and some even looked uncomfortable.

Fortunately, this outburst only lasted for a moment, and the old man restrained his strength.

Looking at Qin Jinnian, his cloudy eyes became sharp and he said, "Boy, this is a serious matter. Do you have any evidence?"

Qin Jinnian helplessly spread his hands: "If you really want to talk about actual evidence, there is none. Whether you believe it or not depends on you, senior."

The old man frowned, "Then how do you know it's Fuyao Patriarch?"

Qin Jinnian thought for a while, and finally said: "It was also an accident. For some reasons, the younger generation was monitoring Yun Jiucheng of the Yun family at that time. But during the monitoring process, Yun Jiucheng, for some reason, suddenly took out a sculpture, made of bronze, which was very similar to the statues made by the followers of the evil church to summon the abyss... Then he knelt down and prayed, and finally the bronze statue came to life. Yun Jiucheng called him the ancestor of Fuyao..."

Qin Jinnian picked Li Yuqi out and only talked about the things about Fuyao Patriarch and Yun Jiucheng.

The old man's pupils suddenly condensed, and he was silent for a moment: "A fake body... yes, this is one of the methods Ye Fuyao obtained from there."

Qin Jinnian noticed: "Where?"

The old man looked at him and did not answer. Instead, he asked, "Why do you want to monitor Yun Jiucheng?"

Qin Jinnian touched his nose and said, "It's inconvenient to tell you this, Senior."

The old man was silent for a while, and then said calmly: "Even if you don't say it, I can guess... You are from Dawn, right?"

Qin Jinnian was stunned for a moment, then laughed: "You are so smart. Dawn Crow, nice to meet you, Senior."

It’s not too surprising that his identity was guessed.

Especially when the other party asked how he knew the identity of Fuyao's ancestor... Qin Jinnian knew that as long as he answered, he would most likely be exposed.

Because during that period of time, with just a little research, one could find out which forces were at odds with Yun Jiucheng at the time.

Dawn is not conspicuous in this matter... but its presence is definitely not low.

After all... Li Wenyao and other three gods from the Li family originally went straight to cause trouble for Dawn.

There's no way around it.

Fortunately, Qin Jinnian had already made some mental preparations. Whether it was exposed or not, it actually had little impact.

The face was changed only because Sun Qi's identity had been confirmed, so it was just to avoid further trouble.

It’s not that I’m really afraid of anything.

"I didn't expect that this small organization that suddenly gained fame in a few months actually had such a powerful force behind it."

The old man looked Qin Jinnian up and down.

Qin Jinnian laughed innocently: "Senior, you are too kind. Compared with the Li family, it is nothing..."

"Aren't all of you at Dawn named Zhang San, Li Si, Wang Wu, Zhao Liu? How come you're called Night Crow?"

the old man asked suddenly.

Qin Jinnian was stunned. He didn't expect that Wang Wu and Zhao Liu were both noticed? Wang Wu and Zhao Liu were not famous. Not as famous as Zhang San and Li Si.

He only showed up once during his first transaction with Qin Fang.

But obviously, it was noticed by some people.

But it doesn’t matter, I have no intention of hiding it.

"It's just a code name..."

Qin Jinnian could only laugh.

He couldn't say that because Sun Qi was doing intelligence work and was targeting you noble families, his current identity was a "temporary worker", so he simply borrowed the code name of Night Crow from the Night Blood Cult. He planned to use this identity once and not use it again, right? The old man looked at him and finally said, "I know about this. But, since you brought the news, I'm afraid you have to come with me and tell others about this."

Others? Qin Jinnian's expression changed slightly: "The other three?"

"Five."

The old man said calmly: "This matter is no longer a matter of one family. Now that the other party's identity has been confirmed, everyone should naturally contribute...Ye Fuyao is not that easy to deal with."

When he said this, a hint of deep fear appeared in his eyes.

Qin Jinnian was stunned for a moment, then asked: "What is Ye Fuyao's ultimate goal?"

The old man did not hide anything and calmly said something earth-shattering.

"Erase Gaia and replace her."

Qin Jinnian's pupils narrowed and he took a breath of cold air.

Then whisper.

"Actually, this is really the plan..."

To be honest, this was the first thought that popped into his mind when he learned that the other party was going to harm Gaia.

But it has not been confirmed, so I can't be sure... because this matter is too big.

Gaia is the key to the Earth's resistance to the abyss... If there were no Gaia, with so many abyss species, and a large number of god-level abyss species sent by the evil church in minutes, the entire Earth would be destroyed.

Then, they will gather a large army and march towards Tianyuan City... Without the solid position of the Earth, Tianyuan City will be destroyed and humanity will probably be destroyed.

And now, Ye Fuyao intends to wipe out Gaia and replace her with himself? It is easy to imagine that if the other party really succeeds... then all human beings will probably become slaves of Ye Fuyao! Life and death are all up to him! This is not what Qin Jinnian wants to see.

Now he trusts Gaia and has no ill feelings towards her. That is because Gaia has no consciousness of her own and cannot communicate, so it is nothing.

But once "God" has selfish desires... Qin Jinnian will not be able to rest at ease.

It can be said that all human beings on Earth can no longer feel at ease.

"Is this kind of thing really possible?"

In the end, he couldn't help but ask the old man.

The old man was silent for a while, and finally sighed: "This world has changed a long time ago. The abyss has invaded, and the gaze of the indescribable thing... You know the indescribable thing, right? It is a terrifying existence that can destroy a world with just one look. Even such an existence really exists, so how can it be considered incredible to take over a Gaia consciousness?"

Qin Jinnian was also silent.

It’s indescribable, and he knows it all too well.

So far, he has been watched by at least three indescribable beings. One is naturally the being that controls the shadow. The other two are the two vast and great figures that he saw during the process of "stealing power" that could not be looked at directly...

"Let's not talk about this anymore, let's deal with the current situation first... Let's go."

After the old man finished speaking to Qin Jinnian, he turned around and flew high into the sky.

Qin Jinnian thought about it and flew up.

The Li family gods below were dumbfounded.

Just left like that? "Brother Fengcheng, this..."

A god-level being asked Li Fengcheng.

Li Fengcheng frowned, thought for a moment, and then said in a deep voice: "Everyone must keep this matter a secret and don't spread it for the time being. Everything will be discussed after the Third Ancestor returns."

"yes."

…

…

The flight lasted for a long time. During the flight, Qin Jinnian saw the old man take something out of his arms and put it on his forehead. After a moment, a few points of golden light broke through the air and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

The speed was so fast that even Qin Jinnian found it difficult to catch.

Qin Jinnian knew that the old man was taking him to meet people from the other five families, but he didn't know where they were going.

When asked, the old man didn't say anything, but just said that you would know when you get there.

So Qin Jinnian stopped asking.

Then Qin Jinnian discovered that the old man's flying posture was very strange.

Qin Jinnian's flying style is to lean forward and fly at lightning speed... well, the Saiyan way of flying.

But the old man was strolling leisurely with his hands behind his back the whole time. But when he took a step forward, it seemed as if the end of the world was just around the corner, and the space seemed to be condensed under his feet.

Qin Jinnian now used his wind power and his speed was extremely fast, but he tried to catch up with the old man several times, but failed every time.

It seemed as if the old man was always just a little ahead of him...no matter how fast he accelerated, it was still the same.

Even if you use extreme speed, it is the same.

Only then did Qin Jinnian realize that this old man might have used some unique ability.

Similar to spatial ability, but seems different.

What is certain is that this speed is not the old man’s top speed.

After flying for about three hours, a towering mountain appeared in front of the two people.

"arrive."

After the old man said this, he went down the mountain.

Qin Jinnian followed closely behind.

Passing through the thick fog, they finally reached the top of the mountain.

Then, Qin Jinnian discovered that there was a palace built on the top of the mountain.

The palace looked shabby and had mostly collapsed, but the remaining broken walls and ruins showed that it was probably not an ordinary palace... The ground was paved with jade and engraved with many mysterious runes.

Strange words are written all over some of the plaques on the ruins.

In front of the palace, there is a small place similar to a martial arts arena.

Qin Jinnian was still a little confused, but the old man suddenly grabbed his hand and said calmly, "There is some time and space turbulence here. I will take you away so that you won't get lost in it."

Space-time turbulence?

What is that?

Qin Jinnian was still a little stunned when the old man grabbed him and stepped into the martial arts arena.

Qin Jinnian couldn't help but follow.

And the next moment, the world in front of me suddenly changed.

Like a flash of light, the chaotic stream of light rushed into Qin Jinnian's eyes and even penetrated into his mind, making him feel an indescribable dizziness.

In the confusion, it even seemed as if I didn't know where I was for a moment.

This shocked Qin Jinnian.

Disturbing spirit?

You have to know that he has dark pupils, so ordinary mental interference, as long as it is not ten times higher than his mental power, cannot affect him at all!

It also exempts all creatures in the abyss from spiritual pollution!

But at this moment, he felt that his mind was disturbed.

And it was a serious interference! He looked down in astonishment and saw that he was being caught by the old man.

But in the previous second, he saw the old man grabbing his hand and moving forward, but in the next second, another hand appeared again, layer upon layer, densely packed.

Qin Jinnian felt so sick that he wanted to vomit.

It was as if he was divided into countless clones, repeating his previous actions.

I don't know how long I was in this strange mental disturbance, but suddenly a voice rang in my ear: "We're here."

Qin Jinnian was in a trance at this moment, and the world in front of him suddenly became bright.

This is not the top of the mountain just now.

Or at least not in the martial arts arena.

I was still at the top of a mountain, but it was full of mountains and dense green. High in the sky, three big suns hung, and the warm sunlight shone down, making everything look exceptionally bright.

The green mountains and clear waters are so beautiful that they make people intoxicated! But you have to know that there is no sun in the abyss, and it is always that kind of dim light.

But here, three big suns appeared!

At the same time, the three suns were hanging high in the sky, but they didn't seem scorching at all? More importantly, in the field of vision, there were upside-down mountains floating above the sky and earth, with waterfalls falling from the upside-down mountains, reflecting the three suns, shining with silver light, so beautiful that it was breathtaking!

"this……"

Qin Jinnian blinked.

What kind of place is this? "Your cultivation isn't that great, but your mental strength is pretty good. An ordinary god-level person who enters here would be unconscious for at least an hour or two, but you recovered so quickly."

The old man's surprised voice sounded.

Qin Jinnian came back to his senses and asked the old man: "Senior, where is this place?"

"Here? Tianyuan Secret Realm, Upside-Down Mountain."
