This whisper in Xiao Shi’s ear was very terrifying. It was not a sound made by humans. Instead, it was the will of the Beginner Martial Era that asked Xiao Shi. In front of this will, Xiao Shi could clearly feel how small he was. It was as if this will had evil intentions towards him, it could kill him on the spot! He would not be able to resist at all.

Through his previous understanding, Xiao Shi knew that this was a chance for everyone who had entered the Beginner Martial Era to join. If he chose to join, he would be transformed by the will of the Beginner Martial Era and become a person of the Beginner Martial Era.

From then on, he enjoyed eternal life in the Beginner Martial Era.

Xiao Shi rejected it directly. After all, he did not come to the Beginner Martial Era to use this place as a refuge, and stay peacefully for the rest of his life. Naturally, he would not join.

Following his rejection, the will of the Beginner Martial Era immediately dissipated and did not continue asking.

Xiao Shi also began to look around. The valley they were in now looked ordinary and nothing special. Apart from Xiao Shi, the other five people also stood not far from him. The six of them stood in a straight line as they faced a straw hut in front of them.

Xiao Shi realized that these five people’s expressions were filled with reverence. Moreover, this reverence was not a disguise under their identities. Instead, it was from the bottom of their hearts.

“You’re here.” An old voice came from the thatched hut. Immediately after, an old man in gray cloth clothes with white hair and wrinkles all over his face appeared in front of everyone.

The old man looked very ordinary. It was as if he was just an ordinary old man without any cultivation, and his body did not emit any aura fluctuations that belonged to a martial artist.

No matter how one looked at it, he was just an ordinary person. However, the moment he saw the old man, the reverence in everyone’s eyes immediately became even stronger. There was also a sense of respect and fanaticism.

“Greetings, Master!” They bowed to the old man at the same time. Although Xiao Shi did not have the respect and fanaticism of everyone, an instinct that came from his identity made him do the same thing as the others and bow to the old man. He also felt a strange sense of familiarity from the old man in front of him. He kept feeling that he had seen him somewhere.

However, when he thought about it carefully, he could not remember. This made him very puzzled. But he knew this seemingly ordinary old man in front of them was their master in the Beginner Martial Era.

Dao Ancestor!

The fact that the other party could be the master of Sages and even Daolords was clearly not as simple as it seemed. The more ordinary on the surface, the more terrifying it was!

So far, Xiao Shi had never seen an existence in the Upper Three Realms act like an ordinary person. After all, the stronger an existence was, the more powerful the aura and pressure emitted from his body was. Even if he deliberately restrained himself, it was impossible for him to be like the other party, no different from an ordinary person.

No! He had even seen one before! Xiao Shi suddenly remembered where he had seen the other party. Back when he first entered Tiandou Province, he had met an old man in a rainforest.

To be precise, at that time, he had encountered a small boat.

On this small boat, there was a mysterious old man in a raincoat and a bamboo hat. At that time, that old man was the same as the current Dao Ancestor. He was clearly ridiculously powerful, but there was no aura fluctuation emitted from his body. No matter how one looked at it, he seemed to be an ordinary person.

At that time, Xiao Shi had already realized that this person was definitely an extremely extraordinary mighty figure. Especially when the old man had invited him up for a cup of tea. Then, in the following period of time, Xiao Shi was extremely lucky. Every time he killed, the highest-quality item at that stage would definitely drop.

All along, Xiao Shi had always been very curious about the identity of that mysterious old man. Because at that time, he was only at the lower three realms of the Martial Dao and could not come into contact with the higher-ups of the Great Wu Empire, he had always thought that that old man was a certain mighty figure at the highest level of the Great Wu Empire.

However, as his cultivation realm continued to increase, when he found out that the strongest person in the Great Wu Empire was three demigods and that the old man was not among the three demigods, he felt even more puzzled.

It was only now, when he saw the Dao Ancestor of the Beginner Martial Era, that he instantly came to a realization. He understood the mysterious old man he had seen back then was the Dao Ancestor of the Beginner Martial Era in front of him!!

The reason why he did not recognize the other party immediately was because their attire was different. At that time, the old man’s entire face was covered in the shadow under the bamboo hat, so his face could not be seen clearly.

There was a boy and a girl beside the old man. It was a little different from the Dao Ancestor Xiao Shi had seen now. Therefore, he did not recognize him immediately. He only felt that he was very familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere before.

It was until now that Xiao Shi’s thoughts immediately exploded! He did not expect the mysterious old man he had seen back then was actually a mighty figure from the Beginner Martial Era!

The Beginner Martial Era and the current Tianwu Continent were obviously in two different spacetimes..
