Master of Strange Dao

So, they are friendly towards you and willing to trust you because you aren't from another Divine Dynasty.

There is not a trace of any other Divine Dynasty's imprint in your bloodline, so they can only conclude that your ancestors belonged to that Divine Dynasty.

Only such an explanation can account for the absence of any marks on you."

After Old Yang finished explaining, Yu Ziqing recalled that two people had already given him a Big Seal.

The latter one was not too difficult to handle since he already had one Big Seal.

As for Mu Shouchang, the County Magistrate of Dinghai City, he must have considered him a descendant of Dadui.

"So, am I now considered a person from that Divine Dynasty?"

"You could say that, or you could not say that, since that Divine Dynasty no longer exists."

"That argument has a loophole though. If my ancestors weren't citizens of the Divine Dynasty, does that mean they didn't exist?" Yu Ziqing argued.

"Heh, have you heard the saying, 'poverty doesn't last three generations'?"

"I have."

"It means that in a poor family, if there's no turn of fortune after three generations, the bloodline will not continue.

This world is very dangerous, and in regions not protected by a Divine Dynasty, it's almost impossible for ordinary people to live safely across three generations.

Tracing back to ancient times, if someone could leave a bloodline that continues to this day without breaking,

then, that person must have been from a Divine Dynasty.

And there's a very good chance that person was not a commoner."

"But..." Yu Ziqing still wanted to argue.

"But what, you mean the Feng and Yin Two Families? How do you know that they weren't from a Divine Dynasty during ancient times?

Even to this day, in name, they are still considered citizens of a certain Divine Dynasty."

Yu Ziqing didn't argue with Old Yang any further, although he felt that theoretically, there definitely were exceptions.

But thinking about it, starting from his ancestors, the probability of every family member not being associated with any Divine Dynasty was incredibly low and unbelievable.

Perhaps only someone like him, who appeared out of nowhere, would have no marks of any Divine Dynasties in his bloodline.

"Let's not worry about these things for now. Before this, I saw two more seals, and someone has entered them. I'm not sure which one Feng Buju entered and which one the Yin Family people entered."

Yu Ziqing briefed Old Yang on the news regarding the two seals. Old Yang was silent for a moment.

"I'm not too sure either, but I suspect that those who took away the Yin Family people were probably not after the locust god.

Whoever those people are, releasing the locust god would be detrimental to others and not beneficial to themselves.

If such an event were to happen, the Three Divine Dynasties would definitely suppress it immediately.

Moreover, those people certainly weren't looking to solve a disaster.

If it were just to resolve the disaster, with the Yin Family's experts there, they should have come out by now after such a long time.

Otherwise, there would be no need to go through the trouble of capturing the Yin Family people.

It's a pity that the Divine Dynasty's seal isn't easy to break, and it would be very difficult for the Yin Family alone to break it.

They must be after the other one."

"Then let's go get Feng Buju out first. When the Feng and Yin Two Families face problems, standing together, the chances of success are higher. The question is the locust god, do you have a way to deal with it?"

"That so-called locust god is actually a Great Demon, and the tricky part is the sheer number of locusts, each capable of carrying poison. The locust god is even more toxic, a phenomenon from ancient times. Since it could be sealed, that means it's not quite the same as ordinary ones."

"Can it be eaten? Would you be poisoned to death?"

"I don't know."

"I encountered a County Magistrate before and discovered something; he seemed unaware of the existence of Body Cultivators."

"Hmm?" Old Yang's eyes suddenly widened: "A County Magistrate who doesn't know about Body Cultivators?"

"Clearly, he didn't know. After he found out I was a Body Cultivator, he was shocked, and extremely pleased. Do you know when Body Cultivators first appeared?"

"This..." Old Yang was at a loss for words and after pondering for a long while with a look of shock on his face, he said, "I don't know, as far as I'm concerned, they seem to have always existed."

"That's not right, definitely not. "

Yu Ziqing thought of the times before the ancient era and of the White Sun Holy Scripture's Qi.

The White Sun Holy Scripture was essentially a Dharma Method for Qi Refinement which also addressed some aspects of Refining God.

Recalling it now, those parts about Refining God clearly weren't as systemized or intricate as the Qi Refinement sections.

Back then, Yu Ziqing hadn't thought there was anything unusual about it.

But now, with new information at hand, he felt that the White Sun Holy Scripture was a typical Qi Refinement Dharma Method, and not without reason.

Because in Qi's era, there might not have been such a thing as "Body Refinement."

Thinking it over again, in this current era, Body Cultivators generally held a low status. In Dazhen, it was somewhat better because one of the previous Emperor Zhens was a Body Cultivator.

Over in Daqian, however, struggling Body Cultivators were the epitome of low-tier practitioners.

None of the Emperors Qian were primarily Body Cultivators.

In the whole world, the number of powerful Body Cultivators, compared to Qi Refining cultivators, did not even amount to a fraction.

"So, I think if in that era inside the seal there were no Body Cultivators at all, naturally no one would've thought of the idea to consume the locust god.

So, do you think your body can withstand the extreme poison of the locust god?

It surely can't poison you to death, can it?"

Old Yang contemplated for a while; he understood what Yu Ziqing meant—whether the locust god could poison to death him in his Dragon Clan form.

"I'm really not sure about that."
