Ancient Ancestral Emperor

It was still within that icy cold world. At this moment, Qin Shaojie was standing on the vast expanse of white snow, respectfully bowing to the elder in front of him.    

An expert of the Saint level, whether in his previous life or this life, was enough to garner Qin Shaojie's respect.    

The old man was still fishing, looking exactly the same as the last time he saw Qin Shaojie. Only, this time it was different. There was a fishing rod beside him, he did not say anything, but with a wave of his hand, he called Qin Shaojie to sit, and signaled the two of them to fish together.    

Qin Shaojie naturally did not reject, and walked over to the old man's side. He sat down on the ground with Elder Bai's legs, and then picked up the fishing rod that was already in place, ready to fish.    

However, the moment he held onto the fishing rod, Qin Shaojie's expression instantly changed, because the fishing rod that was in front of him in the first place was something that he couldn't grasp with his bare hands. It seemed to be an illusion, but it had actually appeared in front of Qin Shaojie.    

His gaze turned towards Elder Bai, who was at the side, and closed his eyes, ignoring Qin Shaojie, but holding onto the fishing rod tightly, it looked exactly the same as the fishing rod, causing Qin Shaojie to be unable to help himself from feeling suspicious.    

He could be considered to be experienced and knowledgeable, but he could not explain the situation in front of him.    

He knew very well that this must be Old Bai's test for him. It was just that the test seemed very simple, as if he was fishing with him. However, the situation in front of him was such that he couldn't even pick up a fishing rod. His consciousness fluctuated slightly. This kind of premonition, however, was clearly just to quietly sit in front of him, and after many tries, he still discovered that this fishing rod was like nothingness, and even more so like a shadow being projected on top of it. What Qin Shaojie had just picked up was the shadow of this fishing rod.    

Under such circumstances, they would never be able to catch a fishing rod even if they had to spend their entire lives.    

Looking around, there was nothing else but this small pond. The only thing left behind was a vast expanse of snow-white land. As for the surroundings of his body, there was nothing else to be seen. This was also not the shadow of a fishing rod, but a real fishing rod.    

He kept trying and failing, but Qin Shaojie did not give up, and the energy in his heart did not stop.    

Since this was a fishing rod and it was real, there was no reason why he could not catch it.    

Moreover, Qin Shaojie did not believe that this Elder Bai would be so bored to make a shadow to play with him.    

Ice element, power of frost, seal me!    

With the change in his hand seals, Qin Shaojie activated the cold energy of heaven and earth, and instantly froze the area in which the fishing rod was at, and then, a fishing rod like rod appeared in front of Qin Shaojie, just that the fishing rod was slightly cold, and under the wrapping of a thick layer of cold energy, it was already difficult to see the appearance of the fishing rod clearly.    

However, Qin Shaojie did not care and fished the ice stick out of the ground, but what disappointed Qin Shaojie was that when he held the ice stick in his hand, the fishing rod that he had seen previously was still there, unmoved.    

This caused Qin Shaojie to be extremely interested in what was happening.    

Then he tried all sorts of methods, but unfortunately there was no progress.    

One day, two days, three days passed.    

Qin Shaojie had even penetrated the entire snow area, but to no avail. In these three days, Old Bai was still fishing on the spot. There were no changes to his fishing. However, he seemed to completely ignore Qin Shaojie's tricks, and continued to fish here.    

It was weird that in these three days, Qin Shaojie had not caught a single fish. He had even seen fish swimming around in the surroundings a few times, but he just didn't manage to catch one.    

Why didn't you choose to give up?    

Finally, Old Bai spoke out and Qin Shaojie also stopped what he was doing after hearing his words. Three days of time was nothing to a martial artist, but it was not a short time for a fishing rod. Right now, the fishing rod was still silently lying on the snowy ground, as if ridiculing Qin Shaojie.    

Because he had yet to find a way to pick up the fishing rod, there was no need to give it up. Qin Shaojie immediately stood up and bowed to Old Bai.    

Perhaps you can do some other things in the next three days. As he spoke, he kept his fishing rod. Old Bai's movements were not fast, but his expression did not change, as if he was unaffected by the fact that the fish did not take the bait.    

He had a fishing rod and fishing line, but he did not have a hook or bait. As for whether the fish would take the bait or not, in his opinion, it had little effect.    

Regarding Old Bai's words, Qin Shaojie did not answer, but stood at his original position.    

In these three days, he didn't really care about getting the fishing rod up, he just needed to find something to do. Moreover, he needed to find something to do around him. Otherwise, staying here like a puppet would not look good.    

From natural stone veins, it had only been ten years for the current nine Tattooed Soul. Such speed was rarely seen in the world and it could even be unprecedented.    

He turned and looked at Qin Shaojie, and Old Bai spoke slowly. After saying that, Qin Shaojie's entire face changed, but he did not reply.    

Coming out of the Tiangyou City, it would not be difficult for him to find out about his background. Perhaps he could hide it from others, but facing this powerful being that was only at the Saint level, there was no need for him to lie.    

Since ancient times, it had always been difficult to raise one's talent. If one was able to find a way, then it would definitely be able to attract a lot of martial artists from all over the world. Even the famous powerhouses would not be able to resist this temptation.    

In his previous life, Qin Shaojie had done it and gained the respect of the three sects and nine realms. Therefore, he hated the Three Sects and Nine Regions.    

However, he himself was well aware that even if there were no three sects and nine realms, he would still end up in disaster sooner or later.    

The scariest part for humans was their endless greed. Facing a rare item like the Taixuan Classic, no one could suppress the desire in their hearts, all they wished for was to fight for it. Only by doing this would he be able to defy the heavens and change his fate.    

They did not know that everyone's life was in their own hands. If they were to give their fate to someone else, then they would not be able to reach the peak of martial arts.    

When Chief Old asked him earlier, Qin Shaojie had vaguely sensed that Old Bai had some thoughts about him, and now that Old Bai had directly said it out, it had confirmed Qin Shaojie's guess.    

However, he was not afraid. Advancing his Inherent skill was not only something that could be done by Taixuan Classic, even some of the treasures in the world could be done by powerful experts. Furthermore, Qin Shaojie had only truly used the Taixuan Classic two times, and at other times, he had chosen other ways to raise his Inherent Skill.    

Therefore, although he was a bit worried, he didn't have much of an expression on his face.    

I remember last time I asked you, but now I have to say, you and Qin Jie are too similar. If you were in the same era, I wonder what would happen.    

When Old Bai once again mentioned Qin Jie, Qin Shaojie was still as expressionless as before, as if he had never heard of this person's name before.    

Seeing Qin Shaojie like this, Old Bai also sighed. He could even detect just how powerful of an existence he was, if there was the slightest fluctuation in Qin Shaojie's emotions. However, it just so happened that Qin Shaojie was not nervous or shocked in the slightest.    

It was as if he was filled with curiosity towards Qin Jie.    

Old Bai had already gathered quite a bit of information regarding Qin Shaojie, to the point where he had even gotten Cang Yue's information.    

All of these things were too similar to the Qin Jie of the past, and caused Old Bai to have a feeling that the Qin Shaojie before him was the reincarnation of Qin Jie.    

However, there had never been a word of inheritance in this world. The only thing that existed was soul possession, but soul possession could not escape his senses. Furthermore, Qin Jie had already died several thousand years ago, at that time, Old Bai was still an unremarkable brat in omphalos. It was just that he was quite respectful towards Qin Jie's supreme methods.    

He felt that it was the greatest pity that he had never truly come into contact with Qin Jie.    

Of course, Qin Jie's death had become a forbidden topic in the Three Sects and Nine Regions. Even Old Bai did not know what had happened in the past. He only knew that he was an extremely powerful youth, so powerful that the Three Sects and Nine Regions had all hoped to have him at the beginning.    

Therefore, when he saw Qin Shaojie in this life, his heart fluctuated a little. No matter what relationship he had with Qin Jie, he still wanted to do something that was different from what it was in several thousand years, and that was to protect Qin Shaojie to the best of his abilities.    

Moreover, in his opinion, Qin Shaojie seemed to be even stronger than Qin Jie.    

Forget it, let's just talk about something more realistic.    

Before Qin Shaojie could see the answer he wanted from his eyes, he had already waved his hand. He started to walk deeper into the snow.    

Qin Shaojie also followed along closely behind the old man.    

Black Scorpion Man is a rare demon beast in this world, I had originally thought that he had already become extinct, but who would have thought that you actually obtained his corpse and nurtured his spirit energy, and even gave him a lot of good fortune. That's why you have become a powerhouse in the Spirit Stage realm now, I don't know if it's his luck or yours.    

Qin Shaojie was also surprised when Old Bai suddenly mentioned extraordinary, because the extraordinary background was even more obscure than his own, but he was still unable to hide it from Old Bai. However, thinking about it, it made sense. Old Bai was such a powerful existence. Even if he could deceive others, he would definitely not be able to escape his eyes.    

It was clear that Old Bai intended to participate in this Zong Stage War under such circumstances.    

Nurturing such a creature from the corpse puppet was not an easy task, not to mention that it had only been a few short years.    

Thus, he had no idea who would be the luckier one. After all, he could tell at a glance that this extraordinary person was completely obedient to Qin Shaojie.    

In the beginning, when he used his own Origin Stone to gain a sliver of intelligence, he then used it to consume Shi Zhen's soul, and even obtained a lifeform with tens of thousands of years of essence. In the process, Qin Shaojie even gave his Southern stone an extraordinary treasure, and any of these were all precious treasures.    

Of course, no one else other than himself, extraordinary and the little fellow knew of these things.    

Thus, it was impossible for Old Bai to know of this information.    

No matter what he wants to do, this junior will respect him.    

Qin Shaojie slowly said. The relationship between him and extraordinary people was no longer that of a master and his servant, but that of a brother. Even in the face of a saint, he wanted to maintain his dignity.    

Elder Bai nodded in agreement.    

Your character is not bad, your nature is tough, your talent is extraordinary, and you have unlimited potential.
