Ye Tianming was even more confused. He just followed the gaze of Kunpeng's phantom and found that Kunpeng's phantom's gaze was directed at the little stone that had been sleeping.

The origin of this small stone is mysterious. It seems that the divine beast Kunpeng seems to know its origin, which makes it excited.

"Do you know the origin of the little stone?"

Kunpeng's gaze fell on the small stone. This gaze seemed to span the eternal wilderness, carrying a sense of vicissitudes and scrutiny.

Little Shitou was in a deep sleep, but when he was glanced at, he felt as if he was being stared at by some ferocious beast. He trembled all over and woke up just like that.

The awakened little stone emitted a strong light. When the light faded away, the little stone returned to its previous plain and ordinary appearance.

It looked at Kunpeng with some fear and muttered, "Who is this old guy? What a terrible aura, even more terrifying than that stinky loach..."

Ye Tianming was shocked when he heard this. Stinky loach? Could it be referring to the legendary Teng Snake that can compete with the real dragon?

Where does this little stone come from? Even Teng Snake has seen it.

Kunpeng seemed to have heard what Little Stone said. A hint of surprise flashed across his huge eyes, but he quickly regained his composure and said calmly, "Little guy, you are quite knowledgeable. You actually know that I am Kunpeng."

Little Stone shrank back and said nothing.

Although it had been sleeping for endless years, some of its instinctive memories were still there, so it naturally knew what Kunpeng represented. It was one of the ten ancient evils, with great strength, and it was not an existence it could afford to provoke now.

Kunpeng's voice was filled with surprise and shock. "I never thought that ancient things would appear in this era. You... who are you?"

Little Stone hesitated for a moment before timidly saying, "I... I don't know either. I've been asleep for too long, and many of my memories have become blurred. I only remember that I once followed a... a very powerful being..."

"A very powerful being?" Kunpeng seemed to be interested. "Do you remember what he is like?"

Little Stone shook his head, "I can't remember either."

Kunpeng looked at the little stone deeply, as if he could see through everything about it. After a long while, he slowly said, "Your aura is very ancient and powerful... Could you be... a follower of that person?"

"Who?" Little Stone was stunned. "Who?"

Kunpeng stopped talking, but just shook his head and said: "The secret of heaven cannot be revealed. When you recover your strength, you will naturally know everything..."

"My current strength is less than one ten-thousandth of my peak strength..." Little Stone sighed, with a hint of loneliness in his tone, "I don't know why I consumed so much strength. It's so difficult to recover now..."

"Well, your current condition is indeed not optimistic." Kunpeng nodded, "If you want to recover your strength, you need to go somewhere..."

"Where?" Ye Tianming and Xiao Shitou asked in unison.

"Zhongzhou." Kunpeng's voice was a little ethereal. "It is the center of this world and the place with the most opportunities. If you want to go, try your luck there..."

"Zhongzhou..." Ye Tianming silently took note of the words of the divine beast Kunpeng.

He secretly decided in his heart that after finishing things here, he would set off for Zhongzhou.

Kunpeng seemed to realize that his remaining strength was about to dissipate. He looked at Ye Tianming deeply and said, "I have given all my inheritance to you. I hope you won't let me down..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Kunpeng's huge shadow completely dissipated, leaving only a ray of light flowing into Kunpeng's divine order.

The ancient token slowly fell into Ye Tianming's hands.

The token is pitch black, and the flying Kunpeng carved on it looks even more lifelike, as if it will take off into the air at any time.

Obviously, the Kunpeng Divine Order, which had been baptized by part of Kunpeng's power, had also undergone tremendous changes.

Ye Tianming knelt solemnly on the ground and kowtowed three times to the Kunpeng Divine Order as the Kunpeng shadow disappeared.

Having inherited Kunpeng's legacy, the divine beast Kunpeng can be considered as half his master.

It seems like a teaching, and he should keep it in mind.

Ye Tianming's voice was steady and firm: "Don't worry, I will definitely inherit your will and protect this world!"

The little stone also imitated Ye Tianming's movements and kowtowed three times, but its movements were a bit funny, and it looked more like a praying mantis kowtowed.

After doing all this, Ye Tianming stood up, only to feel that the burden on his shoulders was heavier.

From this moment on, he is no longer that unknown boy, but an inheritor shouldering the heavy responsibility of protecting the world!

At this moment, the space of the ruins began to tremble violently, and rubble kept falling from the stone wall above, as if it would collapse at any time.

The earth shook and slowly fell.

The surrounding sea water flooded back and poured into the hall.

"It seems that this relic is about to collapse..." Ye Tianming looked up at the crumbling hall, which was sinking little by little and falling into the sea.

He was not at all flustered, but instead showed a hint of anticipation, "It's time to leave..."

……

Meanwhile, outside the stairs.

"It's been so many days, why hasn't Ye Tianming come out yet?"

"Could he have died in there?"

"Humph! You deserve to die! A cultivator from a small place actually dared to dream of getting Kunpeng's inheritance alone. Isn't that a joke?"

……

A group of people gathered in the square where the steps were originally, talking a lot.

Various complex expressions flashed on their faces.

Anxiety, worry, and gloating are everywhere.

These people were from various forces and families who had entered the territories with Ye Tianming before in treasure hunting.

This naturally includes Ji Qingwan and others who dropped out midway.

"Ye Tianming is a lucky man, nothing will happen to him..." Huang Bingxin looked at the exit of the ruins anxiously, praying silently in his heart.

Her beautiful eyes flashed with nervous worry, as if she was afraid of missing something and refused to look away for a moment.

Even though her tribe members had urged her several times, she had no intention of leaving.

Lin Yujiao and Lin Qing'er's beautiful eyes were fixed, filled with anticipation and anxiety.

"Sister, Ye Tianming...could something really happen to him?"

Lin Yujiao's face was solemn and she shook her head blankly.

She pursed her lips tightly, with a hint of determination flashing on her pretty face.

"He will be fine!"

At this moment, a dazzling light suddenly burst out at the entrance of the ruins, and then a figure slowly walked out and stood on the towering steps.

"It's Ye Tianming!"

"He's still alive?!"

The crowd suddenly exploded, and everyone had an expression of disbelief on their faces.

Ye Tianming rushed out from the steps and landed on the lakeshore. His eyes crossed the lake and scanned everyone.

The gaze swept across those monks with whom he was not close, and finally stopped on Lin Yujiao and the other girls.

He couldn't help but smile a little, and felt warm in his heart.

"I'm back……"
