I became a god by treasure hunting after arriving 500 years early-Chapter 714 - 531: The Origin of the 【Ghost】

After a long while, someone finally muttered in a daze, “How could this happen?”

The Big Crystal Man shook his head, “In history, these events are summed up in a single sentence, but who can truly know the intricate details… perhaps the foundation was already rotten, or maybe the higher-ups were corrupt as well, leading the Myth of Demons to commit such an absurd mistake.”

These Crystal Men truly resembled living museums, knowing bits and pieces about everything—no wonder they are regarded as living fossils among the Strangers.

However, given their status, who could challenge their judgment of the [Demons]?

They were all contributors of great merit!

“Where did Lu Yuan acquire this treasure?”

A Crystal Man stated, “According to my records, the peak civilization of the Seventh Epoch, the Gear Civilization… scattered a massive amount of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures across the Pangu Continent using some kind of Space Ability.”

“It’s quite possible that this Space Ability is exactly the ability of this palace.”

“Now that the Gear Civilization has vanished, this artifact somehow ended up in Lu Yuan’s possession…”

The Seventh Epoch created [Gods] and left behind a massive legacy.

This reflects a sense of responsibility.

If every peak civilization were as considerate as the Gear Civilization, perhaps Epoch Disasters would have been overcome long ago.

These Strangers sighed one after another, “The Space Ability of ‘distant lands feeling like neighbors’… the imagination of the ancient times was truly unbridled and visionary.”

“It’s a pity, still not strong enough.”

…

At this moment, Lu Yuan walked into the Immortal Palace, and as soon as he entered, he heard the Crystal Men’s explanations.

His heart gave a sudden jolt—his trump card had been seen through in an instant!

These living-fossil-level museums truly had keen insight.

The Old Snake Man suddenly asked, “Kid, is it true that in this place one can only speak the truth, not lies?”

“Indeed, that is the case…” Lu Yuan nodded.

The Snake-man and Batman’s fury ignited once more; they resumed their verbal sparring with renewed intensity, their insults shockingly vile.

Echoing voices resounded in his ears.

Lu Yuan raised an eyebrow, and with a sudden “bang,” the globe on the table vibrated, silencing the two troublemakers.

It wasn’t until much later that their permission to speak was restored.

“Will the Gear Civilization never return?” Lu Yuan asked hesitantly.

“Don’t even think about it. Once they’ve fled, how could they ever come back? With epochs replacing one another and civilizations shifting, the World Will won’t welcome them back and would only treat them as mere guests.”

“In the end, we can only rely on ourselves.”

A faint sadness washed over Lu Yuan. Upon hearing that even the strongest pillars had departed, and now finding himself surrounded by enemies in all directions, he suddenly felt as though an overwhelming confusion about the road ahead overcame him.

The Old Snake Man indignantly pointed a finger at him, “With such a powerful physique, are you trying to make yourself the Heavenly Emperor?”

His ethereal form towered stunningly at a height of 300 meters.

By comparison, the guests were mere specks.

“Cough, cough, senior, this is simply the maximal size of the Greedy Demon God. It wasn’t deliberate on my part—it’s just how this form is supposed to be.”

“Fair enough, you do look somewhat like the ruler of the Heavenly Court.”

Lu Yuan scarcely dared to accept such praise that might diminish his fortune and promptly waved it away, “Seniors, you jest. May I humbly ask, what do you think of the foundation of my [Heavenly Court Myth]?”

“Impressive, truly impressive this time. It surpasses the Ancient Insect Horn by several times! Its value is nearly impossible to gauge,” the Strange Armored Man remarked. “But this artifact is priceless to a capable civilization, while to the inept, it’s just a burden.”

“To tell the truth, it was even gifted to me by the Ancient Worm.” Lu Yuan smiled wryly. “This item is clearly a contraband. How could I dare let it reappear in the world?”

“Its toxicity—if not fifty points, at least twenty or thirty points—surely cannot be overlooked?”

The Strange Armored Man nodded, “Indeed… its toxicity is comparable to that of your yet-to-be-synthesized ability. You really should keep this under wraps.”

Everyone’s hearts were nonetheless filled with a sense of satisfaction.

This is… trust!

Such a high-level secret being revealed essentially meant that everyone considered themselves to be on the same side, forming a defensive alliance to overcome future Epoch Disasters together.

The Strange Armored Man curiously asked, “But if this artifact is not utilized, its value is effectively zero. How do you plan to develop it?”

Lu Yuan spoke with assurance, “Naturally, by modifying it. The original function of [Heavenly Court Myth] was unrestricted space teleportation… this ability has already shattered and cannot be restored to its former glory.”

“Even if I poured all my effort into repairing it, it would only invite the attention of forbidden entities.”
