Qinchuan didn't answer the Divine Emperor's question verbally, but the Divine Emperor was able to glean the answer he wanted from the minute changes in Qinchuan's expression.
The Divine Emperor gazed at the silent Qinchuan and sighed, "This universe is really unfair. Why do such heaven defying fortuitous encounters fall into the hands of you humans time and time again?"
Before Qinchuan could reply, the Divine Emperor sighed with emotion, "During the ancient times, Yu relied on the fortuitous encounters that the Runic Continent and the Runic Sword gave him to rise to power and become the strongest expert in the universe. He was full of ambition, and he imitated the ancestors of the human race and spread the human race's language throughout the universe. He unified the written language and even unified the culture!"
When he spoke up to this point, the Divine Emperor gazed deeply at Qinchuan, "Do you know what the universe would be like now if Yu hadn't done those insane things during the ancient times?"
Qinchuan instinctively fantasized when he heard the Divine Emperor's words. If Yu hadn't suddenly gone mad and done those things, then perhaps the universe would have completely become the territory of the human race. All the other races would have become the vassals of the human race, and Yu would have become the true master of all races and illuminated the world with his radiance!
"We're very fortunate that Yu was a crazy person. If he wasn't, then we would be the ones who should be crazy."
The Divine Emperor let out a long sigh. He felt sad for the geniuses of the same generation as Yu during the ancient times, and he also felt sad for the young people of the same generation as Qinchuan in this era.
The so-called geniuses, in front of Qin Chuan, would eventually lose their luster.
Qinchuan fell silent for a moment when he heard the Divine Emperor's words, and then he said, "Everything you've said is only based on what if. In reality, the human race and the demon race have been dormant for over 10 million years, and it's time for them to rise once more."
"In the end, it's still because of the Runic Continent and the Runic Sword."
The Divine Emperor gazed at Qinchuan and said, "You probably obtained a Talisman Sword, right? All those years ago when the Talisman Continent collapsed, the Talisman Sword was probably the only thing the talismans could rely on. If you didn't have the assistance of the Talisman Sword, it would be very difficult for you to advance into the ninth rank of Talisman Formation Master, right?"
Qinchuan didn't answer the Sage Emperor's question, which could be considered as tacitly agreeing that the Sage Emperor was right.
Although he didn't know how the bronze square box ended up in his hands, he did obtain the sea of runes through the bronze square box. At the same time, the bronze square box turned into a ring, which he had always worn on his finger. Previously, in order to disguise himself, he deliberately took off the bronze ring and stored it in his storage ring.
Until now, Qinchuan still had no idea what this bronze ring could do.
The sea of runes had vanished with the appearance of the runic sword. It was probably absorbed by the runic sword. If that wasn't the case, the runic sword probably wouldn't have been able to help him absorb the power of runes, simplify runes, or upgrade runes.
Indeed, most of the credit for the abilities he had obtained was due to the runic swords.
Seeing that Qinchuan was silent, the Sage Emperor said to Qinchuan, "What other questions do you have? Ask away."
Qinchuan looked up at the Sage Emperor and asked, "How did your Zerg reach an agreement with the Void Empire back then?"
Qin Chuan clearly remembered that when the imperial army attacked the human and demon armies, the Zergs had also participated in the encirclement. If not for that, the elites of the human and demon races would not have been wiped out.
Qinchuan really wanted to know what role Zerg had played in all these years.
Hearing Qinchuan's question, the Sage Emperor was a little surprised. He thought that Qinchuan would continue to ask about the broodmother and the divine artifact. He didn't expect Qinchuan to change his target to the Void Empire.
"Although I wasn't the one who did it back then, I still have some understanding of it."
The Sage Emperor was silent for a moment before answering Qinchuan's question.
"Before the rise of the human and yao races, the overlords of this universe were us, who created the divine artifact, and the Protoss, who created the divine artifact.
At that time, the only one who could suppress us was the Protoss. However, the rise of the human and yao races changed this situation. They relied on the powerful runic sword and the brand-new runic array system to surpass us and the Protoss, completely suppressing us.
"With the advantage of the divine artifact, the Protoss was able to compete with the human race. However, due to various reasons, we were defeated by the human race several times. The human race was proud and disdainfully called us … Zerg!"
When he said the name "Zerg", a sharp glint flashed across the Sage Emperor's eyes. Clearly, he hated this name very much!
"Ever since we created the divine artifact, for millions of years, no one dared to call us Zerg. The human race made our ancestors recall those unbearable memories of the past.
The stronger the human race was, the more the Sacred Race would be mocked. Therefore, when the Void Empire extended an olive branch to us, we agreed to cooperate without hesitation! "
After hearing the Sage Emperor's explanation, Qinchuan finally had a clearer understanding of the grudge between the human race and Zerg.
It turned out that the source of the grudge between the human race and Zerg that had lasted for tens of millions of years was because of an "insignificant" name!
To the human race, the name "Zerg" might be used to mock Zerg, but to the self-proclaimed Sacred Race Zerg, it was the greatest insult to them!
"Since the Protoss had the divine artifact back then, how did the human race defeat the Protoss?"
Qinchuan was very curious. The human race had the runic sword, and the Protoss also had the divine artifact. Since that was the case, why was the Protoss no match for the human race? Was it just because of Yu?
Qinchuan felt that there must be more to this than he knew.
When the Sage Emperor heard Qinchuan's question, he said calmly, "From the ancient times until now, the Bug Queen has gone through three generations of inheritance, and the Firmament has gone through three generations of inheritance, and the One True God Athius has only existed since the ancient times. Do you know why?"
When Qinchuan heard this, he seemed to have thought of something. Extremely shocked, he said, "Could it be that the One True God Athius is the divine artifact?"
The Sage Emperor nodded and said, "The One True God Athius is the spirit of the divine artifact!
As long as the divine artifact is not destroyed, he will exist forever!
Let me ask you, how can a divine artifact defeat the combination of a universe supreme master and a divine artifact? "
After hearing the Sage Emperor's explanation, Qinchuan was really shocked. He had never thought that the One True God Athius would be a divine artifact!
This made Qinchuan think of Bai Yuu. If the Hope could become a divine artifact one day, wouldn't Bai Yuu also become an existence like the One True God Athius?
