Chapter 591: Chapter 316: Four Prophecies
Foreknowledge started again, this time consuming 20 foreknowledge times!
…
[As soon as you enter the relic, you are immediately spotted by another martial artist inside. A middle-aged man appears in front of you, questioning how you entered. You realize that the person in front of you is likely Du Qiyuan.]
[You tell Du Qiyuan that you are a martial artist who just entered the Land of the Lost from the outside world, and because of being contaminated by Demonic Qi, you had no choice but to enter the Land of the Lost in search of a solution.]
[Sensing the Demonic Qi within you, Du Qiyuan does not doubt your words. Instead, since he was similarly contaminated by Demonic Qi, he feels empathy towards you.]
[You pretend to know nothing and attempt to ask Du Qiyuan about this place. Du Qiyuan tells you that this is an ancient relic, where a group of powerful people once lived, who were responsible for guarding this space.]
[You want to ask why those powerful people guarded this place, but Du Qiyuan doesn’t tell you.]
“Guarding this space? What is there to guard in this space?”
Su Nan finds it strange.
So far, he has explored most of the Land of the Lost, but it seems that apart from being unable to leave, there is nothing extraordinary about this place.
Could it be the Ancient God Tomb?
[Following Du Qiyuan to the largest stone hall, you find that the carvings on the stone walls on both sides of the hall have not been destroyed. Unfortunately, the carvings are too abstract for you to understand the information recorded on them.]
[You pretend to be attracted by the carvings and curiously ask Du Qiyuan about the records on the carvings. Du Qiyuan does not conceal the information from you.]
[It isn’t until ten hours later that you learn that the stone wall is inscribed with prophecies left by a powerful person from ancient times. There are a total of four prophecies: Demon Calamity, Heavenly Disaster, Demonic Tribulation, and Clan Extinction.]
“Four prophecies?”
Seeing the information of the foreknowledge, Su Nan is greatly shocked.
Especially when he sees the first three prophecies, he immediately thinks of demon beasts, Heavenly Race, and demon clan!
Obviously, these three races are related to the first three prophecies, and the following foreknowledge confirms his guess.
[Du Qiyuan tells you that the “Demon Calamity” was the first disaster in ancient times. The ancient world did not originally have demon beasts until a mysterious space known as “Demon Abyss” merged with the ancient world, resulting in the appearance of demon beasts.]
[The emergence of demon beasts caused heavy losses to the Ancient Human Clan, with many experts being corroded by Demonic Qi. Eventually, countless experts sacrificed their lives, taking hundreds of years to gradually suppress and defeat the demon beasts.]
[“Heavenly Disaster” refers to the second disaster faced by the Ancient Human Clan. The so-called Heavenly Disaster was caused by two races: the Heavenly Race and the Divine Race. However, since the Heavenly Race had the greatest impact on the Ancient Human Clan, it was named Heavenly Disaster.]
[The occurrence of the Demon Calamity and the Heavenly Disaster were not far apart in time. Because the Demon Calamity resulted in a significant decrease in the number of Human experts and a sharp decline in overall strength, they failed to recover in thousands of years. This led to further losses in the subsequent Heavenly Disaster.]
[“Demonic Tribulation” refers to the great battle between the Ancient Human Clan and the demon clan. This relic was built after the Heavenly Disaster occurred. For the people of that time, the Demonic Tribulation was only a prophecy, but by now, it has already taken place ten thousand years ago.]
[As for the last prophecy, “Clan Extinction”, Du Qiyuan guesses that the so-called “Clan Extinction” is most likely the extinction of the Human race.]
[Based on the previous three prophecies, if the Human race truly goes extinct, it is very likely that the three great disasters of “Demon Calamity”, “Heavenly Disaster”, and “Demonic Tribulation” will happen simultaneously.]
“The simultaneous occurrence of the three great disasters and the extinction of the Human race!”
Su Nan gasps. If the Human race in the Demon World goes extinct, what about the humans in the real world?
Things probably won’t be much better there either.
After all, with the public beta test of the game, the game world has gradually begun to integrate with the real world. Once a disaster occurs in the game world, the real world won’t be able to escape it either!
Continuing to read on, the following content sends an even bigger shock through Su Nan’s heart.
[You ask Du Qiyuan that since the Ancient Human Clan had already prophesied the extinction of the Human race, was there no preparation for it?]
[Du Qiyuan tells you that there is a rumor that the Ancient Human Clan had been preparing for this situation long ago. In ancient times, many powerful people used up most of the world’s resources to create a supreme treasure together and banished it into the void.]
[However, that supreme treasure required tens of thousands of years to mature. In order to buy enough time for the Human race, ancient powerhouses did not hesitate to use the power of the battles with the demon clan to make the Heavenly and Earthly vitality disappear, thereby delaying time.]
[When the day comes that the Heavenly and Earthly vitality is restored, it will mean that the supreme treasure has been fully matured, and it will also be the time when the fourth prophecy becomes a reality.]
“When the supreme treasure is matured, the Heavenly and Earthly vitality will be restored, and the fourth prophecy will be realized.”
“Now that the public beta of the game has begun, the Heavenly and Earthly vitality in the game world is starting to recover. Could the supreme treasure be…”
In an instant, Su Nan thinks of something and his face changes.
At the beginning, he had learned from the Night Patrol that the appearance of the game was related to an supreme treasure.
If all this is true, then it undoubtedly means that the supreme treasure that created the game is likely the very same one created by the Ancient Human Clan!
This news is earth-shattering.
For a moment, Su Nan feels as if he has glimpsed the true nature of the game.
Also, thinking back to what the Demonic Thought sealed in the Cave Immortal’s cave dwelling had said before, his expression becomes even more solemn.
