Thinking of this, Qin Chen immediately carried the black slave to the edge of the stone platform.
As he refined the formation flags, he once again set up an activation formation on this stone platform.
"Universal creation, defying the heavens, what a pity..."
Just as Qin Chen finished arranging the formation flags and was about to leave, he suddenly heard a deep sigh echoing in his mind.
"Senior, you haven't died?"
Qin Chen turned around in shock once more, repeating this phrase, staring in astonishment at the elder before him.
These words abruptly appeared in his mind; aside from this elder, who else could there be in this space?
"Whether I am dead or not, what does it matter? I am but a remnant soul, destined to dissipate sooner or later. It is a pity that my remarkable fate has no one to inherit it. How tragic, how tragic..."
The ancient and weary voice rang again in Qin Chen's mind. This time, he understood that it was indeed the elder speaking.
This person had died for countless years, yet still retained a remnant soul. What kind of cultivation was this?
Even an ordinary Nineth Level Martial God wouldn't possess such strength.
Could it be that this person was a legendary existence that stepped into the Holy Realm?
Qin Chen looked at the elder with suspicion and quickly bowed, saying, "I was reckless and intruded upon your secluded space. I take my leave now and assure you that I will not speak of what happened here."
The fact that the other party's voice could directly resonate in his mind made Qin Chen feel an inexplicable discomfort.
"Secluded space? Heh, during the ancient battle, my divine soul shattered, leaving only this shell. If it weren't for the existence of a soul-consolidating treasure on me, which preserved this remnant soul, I would have long vanished into thin air, reduced to dust. Alas..."
The elder's voice was filled with endless desolation and loneliness.
It was as if an old man at his twilight was reminiscing about his past.
"This remarkable fate of mine, seizing opportunities from heaven and earth, reversing the universe, possesses immense power, truly a defying inheritance. Yet, alas, you show no interest in inheriting it. Is my unparalleled divine skill destined to fade completely from history?"
The elder's voice grew weaker.
"Is this guy trying to make me his disciple?"
Qin Chen's expression was strange.
He felt that this situation was filled with an intense sense of weirdness.
For example, how did the black slave appear here? Why was he fainted in this place?
Who was this elder? Why was he in this palace beneath the black swamp? What connection did this have with the ancient Southern Capital?
Qin Chen cupped his hands and asked, "Senior, who are you? Why are you here? What is this place?"
While questioning, Qin Chen scrutinized the elder.
"Who am I? Heh... It's been so long that I no longer know who I am. As for this place? This is the battlefield of the human race and the foreign tribes of the Tianwu continent..."
Qin Chen was taken aback. The battlefield of the human race and foreign tribes?
From the ancient Southern Capital, he learned that in ancient times, foreign tribes invaded the Tianwu continent, only to encounter fierce resistance from the human race. The strong from the human race united to drive the foreign tribes out of the Tianwu continent.
However, the history of the continent was severed as a result; it was an incredibly dark and chaotic era.
Could this elder, like the ancient Southern Capital, have been a strong figure of the human race who ultimately fell here in the battle against the foreign tribes?
For a moment, Qin Chen felt a profound respect.
Although he did not know the true identity of the elder, based on the information from the ancient Southern Capital and what the elder said, he could imagine the brutality of that battle.
To such a figure, he held great admiration.
The ancient voice sighed again, "Seeing that you can appear here, it seems my human race has won the war. But I wonder, how long has it been since that battle? I wonder if my close friends are still alive."
