## Chapter Guide

The skeleton offers to give his sword saber in exchange for LC and Yue Xiaoqian answering a few questions.

## Question 1

"Has the dark era passed?" asked the skeleton.

Long Chen was dumbfounded. How could he possibly answer that? But suddenly, Yue Xiaoqian opened her mouth. "It passed eight epochs ago."

## Question 2

"Eight epochs? It's been a long time. Then what was the final result of that battle?" The skeleton sighed before continuing to ask questions.

"The Motherstar collapsed, turning into millions of motes of dust. The place we are currently in is one of those motes of dust," answered Yue Xiaoqian.

Hearing this, Long Chen felt as if he was lost in the fog. He knew what an epoch represented. That was a unit of time from the ancient era. One epoch was ten million years!

In that era, there had been a kind of tree called the Epoch Pine Tree. Every thousand years, it would grow a pine cone, and when there were ten thousand pine cones, the Epoch Pine Tree would immediately wither to death.

But ten million years later, the Epoch Pine Tree would be reborn. Its life and death was precisely twenty million years. That was how the Epoch Pine Tree's lifespan had become a simple and clear measurement of time in the ancient era.

However, as a unit of measurement, the epoch was no longer used in the current world. It was simply too long a time.

It was said that back in the ancient era, a cultivator's lifespan was practically limitless.

But in the current era, an ordinary mortal's lifespan was less than a hundred years. Only by reaching the Xiantian realm would your lifespan extend to a thousand years. But even so, that kind of longevity, in the face of an epoch, was far too short.

As for the Motherstar and the dark era, those were unfathomable terms that Long Chen had never heard before.

The skeleton's body quivered slightly, seeming extremely vexed with that result.

"The Godsealing major world, with its thousands of races and countless experts, collapsed...? And even the Motherstar was destroyed..." The skeleton's voice was full of unwillingness and endless bitterness.

## Question 3

"Girl, tell me... what is the situation of the barbarian race?"

"Um..." Yue Xiaoqian didn't know what to say. She was a bit afraid.

"Tell me the truth!" shouted the skeleton.

"Senior, when the Motherstar was destroyed, the thousands of races went through a devastating calamity. Some of them had already sided with the other side, and as for the barbarian race..." Yue Xiaoqian's voice grew quiet.

"What happened?" the skeleton asked frantically.

"The barbarian race fought to the death, refusing to submit to the end. They fought to their last warrior. Even the Barbarian God of that time fell."

"What? Impossible! AHHH!!!"

## Barbarian race

"Fuck off!" With a wave of its hand, Yue Xiaoqian was sent flying.

"You're the one who should fuck off!" Long Chen's fury soared. Despite his exhaustion, his divine ring once more appeared, and a star flickered in his eyes. He struggled as hard as he could against that arm.

But that arm was harder than steel. Long Chen was unable to budge it. Instead, it was his arms that were shaken so hard that they felt like they might break.

Suddenly, Long Chen was surprised to find that the skeleton had let go of him. It then took a step back and actually used its own saber to cut off one of its arms.

After cutting off its own arm, that skeleton apologized, "I'm sorry Heir of the Nine Stars. I hope this arm can make up for my blasphemy against you."

Both Long Chen and Yue Xiaoqian were now truly stunned. They didn't understand just what kind of crazy disease the skeleton had suddenly contracted.

The skeleton said to Long Chen, "Please forgive me for my earlier offense against you. I very much want to know about my barbarian race."

"Think carefully. There must be someone close to you who corresponds with the characteristics of my barbarian race. My perception cannot be wrong. Although that aura is very faint, it's definitely there."

"Could it be Wilde?" Long Chen suddenly thought of Wilde. But it seemed that the only similarity was that they were both tall. It was too far-fetched.
