Chapter 1765 In Danger (1/2)
They saw a skinny old man not far from them. He was sitting cross-legged in the air.
This old man sat still with his eyes closed.
”Is he dead?”
Violet said softly, as they couldn't even make out whether he was breathing or not.
Indeed, the old man didn't look like he was alive. Motionless and lifeless, he sat there.
Upon that, there was hardly any flesh on his body. His skin was wrinkled and covered the skeleton, looking very dry. It was so dehydrated, like there was not a drop of water in his body.
”He might be dead!
Probably, he was another great master who buried his body in the chaotic space after his death.
The only difference is that the golden giant put his body in the coffin, while the old man didn't do anything like that.
Rather, the old man just left his body in the infinitely huge space.”
Austin nodded in agreement. He too was thinking that the old man was dead.
However, just at that moment, he was proved wrong.
Suddenly, the old man opened his eyes. Two rays of light instantly pierced through the void. It looked as if the light had gone for a long time and space, and finally landed on Austin, the gnome and Violet.
”It's funny. I can't believe this! Ten thousand years later, these three youngsters can see the previous version of myself — that I was ten thousand years ago,”
the old man murmured. His voice was soft, but with a strong penetrating power. It clearly reached Austin and his two companions' ears.
”How can this happen?”
the gnome cried out in surprise.
”The old man who is in front of us is no longer here in the physical and actual form.
We are seeing him as he was ten thousand years ago.
It implies that ten thousand years ago, this old man meditated in this chaotic space.
Now ten thousand years later, we are here and can see the old man sitting and meditating here, like he used to do ten thousand years ago!”
The gnome was shocked when he realized it.
”What? Really? It is unbelievable!”
Austin and Violet were confused by the gnome's words.
”Gnome, are you sure? Don't you think you're talking nonsense?
