Chen Xuan was completely dumbfounded.
The constant use of terms like "hundreds of millions of years" is constantly challenging his worldview.
Just how old is he now?
He lived two lives, and in total, he was only a few decades old.
Oh no, if you include using time to accelerate his cultivation, he's actually several million years old.
However, a few million years is nothing compared to hundreds of millions or billions of years!
These eight ancient clans have existed for far too long!
"So, from the appearance of the Forest Lord to the end of the Boundary Sea Era, more than 5 billion years have passed for the Lin Clan. Adding the mythology, the wilderness, and this era, it's 3.3 billion years."
"Your Lin tribe has existed for nearly eight billion years?"
Chen Xuan asked, somewhat bewildered.
Lin Yan nodded gently.
Chen Xuan was somewhat bewildered.
Then he asked, "How old is your maternal grandmother, Lin Qing?"
Lin Yan replied, "Grandma was born nine billion years ago in the Boundary Sea Era. She was active at the end of the Boundary Sea Era. Including the time she spent sleeping in the Longevity Source, she has been alive for forty-three billion years."
"But in reality, he was sealed in the source of longevity for three billion years, which slowed down his aging. In other words, not counting the period when the source of longevity was sealed, Grandma is 1.3 billion years old."
Below the Supreme Being level, even the Great Emperor who possesses the Dao Fire has a maximum lifespan of only 129,600 years!
However, there are always ways to prolong life and allow people to live a few more years.
Of course, only powerful families have this kind of foundation.
Only the supreme being can truly break free from constraints and live as long as the heavens!
"So, what happened to the other seven of the eight ancient clans, besides the Forest Clan? Where did they go?"
Chen Xuan asked.
Could it be that they have all disappeared into the long river of history?
"The demon race of the Great Crimson Heaven is one of the eight ancient races."
Lin Yan explained, "Besides that, the remaining six major clans are either in the Nine Heavens, forming their own forbidden zone, or in the underworld, not under anyone's jurisdiction."
Chen Xuan suddenly realized.
Previously, he had always been curious about what the forbidden zone was and how it came to exist.
Now, we finally have the answer.
It turns out that most of these forbidden zones were left behind by ancient and powerful supreme races from the Boundary Sea Era!
Of course, there are also forbidden zones that are not from the Boundary Sea Era. For example, the Xuanquan Great World, the forbidden zone where Douwu is located, was transformed into a forbidden zone after Douzun occupied this territory during the Mythical Era.
There are four forbidden zones in the nine heavens and ten earths.
There are even more in the heavens above, and in the underworld as well.
However, the forbidden areas of the underworld are not within the 840 million cities under the jurisdiction of the Fengdu Emperor, nor within the Underworld, nor even within the Ancient Underworld, but in other regions.
"Boy, let me tell you a secret. In fact, many of the supreme beings in later generations have some connection with the eight ancient clans."
"For example, Lei Zun from the mythological era may be a descendant of the Lei clan, with at least half of his bloodline being Lei clan."
"For example, Hai Zun is a descendant of the sea race, which is ancient and powerful, and is an awe-inspiring race."
The mention of the sea race in the battle reminded Chen Xuan of his experience in the Central Continent, where the River Emperor received the River Venerable's inheritance.
I wonder how that River King is doing now after his resurrection.
Furthermore, to Chen Xuan's surprise, Dou Wu, with his unruly personality, actually showed awe when mentioning the sea tribe.
This demonstrates the immense power of the sea creatures!
"The Netherworld Lord from the barbaric era was most likely a descendant of the Underworld Reincarnation Clan. That White Lord, if nothing unexpected happens, should be related to the forbidden zone of the Yellow Springs Great World."
"The forbidden zone of the Yellow Springs was actually established by the Yan Clan, one of the eight ancient clans."
"Back then, Bai Zun shed blood in the Yellow Springs Great World to protect the forbidden zone of the Yellow Springs Great World."
"By the way, He Zun also has intricate connections with the sea race. If nothing unexpected happens, He Zun has at least half sea race blood flowing through his veins."
Douwu slowly revealed the truth.
Chen Xuan was greatly surprised.
I never imagined that the influence of the eight ancient clans was so great!
"By the way, there's something very interesting. Many people think that Amitabha Buddha is the first Buddha in the world."
"Actually, no. Amitabha Buddha comes from the Buddha Clan, one of the eight ancient clans. However, like the Yan Clan, the Buddha Clan is low-key and mysterious, so not many people know about it."
Hearing this, Chen Xuan was extremely shocked.
Who would have thought that among the eight ancient tribes, there was actually a Buddhist tribe?
"Senior, what are these eight ancient clans?" Chen Xuan asked.
Dou Wu stood with his hands behind his back and said calmly, "Flame Clan, Thunder Clan, Sea Clan, Forest Clan, Reincarnation Clan, Demon Clan, Stone Clan, Celestial Clan."
At this point, he puffed out his chest and said, "It's just that I was born relatively late. If I had been born billions of years earlier, there wouldn't have been eight ancient clans, but nine, and there would have been an additional fighting clan!"
This is typical of a self-promoting vendor praising their own wares.
However, it's not an exaggeration. After all, having two Supreme Beings in one family would indeed make them a powerful clan that stands atop the mountain in the ancient era of the Boundary Sea!
"Of course, kid, don't think that the eight ancient clans are so powerful. The eight ancient clans are indeed very powerful, and have produced several supreme beings."
"But later generations are not necessarily inferior to them. They were just at their zenith in the early and middle stages of the Boundary Sea Era. In the later stages of the Boundary Sea Era, new talents emerged in every generation."
"The Fighting Saint Venerable, Six-Eared Macaque Venerable, Azure Dragon, Qilin, Kunpeng, and the fifteen Supreme Venerables of the later Boundary Sea Era were all formidable opponents."
The Boundary Sea Era lasted for 10 billion years, and is divided into the Pre-Boundary Sea Era, which is the first 4 billion years.
The Middle Sea Age, which spans from four billion to eight billion years ago.
The post-Sea Era is the last two billion years.
For eight billion years before the Middle Sea Era, the world belonged to the eight ancient tribes.
However, in the post-World Sea era, although the eight ancient races were still powerful, they no longer had such strong dominance, because a new supreme being had risen.
Of course, at that time, the supreme rulers of the eight ancient clans were still alive, and the eight ancient clans were still powerful groups that could not be offended!
As they spoke, they arrived in the void outside the Great Crimson Heaven.
At first glance, the entire Great Crimson Sky is a huge oval-shaped world, surrounded by countless satellites.
In the Great Crimson Heaven, there is a powerful family with a lineage of god-kings, the Qin Clan!
Chen Xuan had a good relationship with Qin Qingxia and Qin Hao, the siblings from the Qin clan.
These two siblings are both innocent and talented. They have reached the divine realm at the young age of 10, and their future achievements are limitless.
After thinking for a moment, Chen Xuan decided to visit the Qin Clan first before going to cause trouble for the demon clan's forbidden area in the Great Crimson Heaven.
