Chapter 1515: Chapter 453: [World-Origin Object: I Am Here.]_4

Or rather, it tried once or twice.

Because Chen Yan "saw" that there were a couple of times when some of those large, ancient creatures approached this Stone Tree while eating leaves.

One of the animals noticed the Stone Tree and, out of curiosity, extended its tongue to gently lick the Stone Tree.

The Stone Tree immediately released its consciousness outward.

But obviously, those ancient creatures did not possess such things as "wisdom," so the consciousness released by the Stone Tree received no response.

The Stone Tree felt "disappointed," and thus, in the years that followed, it continued to remain silent.

Seeing this, Chen Yan roughly guessed that those oddly shaped ancient creatures were probably the legendary...dinosaurs!

However, he was slightly surprised that these dinosaurs did not resemble the ones from United States Hollywood movies.

Chen Yan did not see the classic short-armed Tyrannosaurus Rex.

But it wasn’t strange to think about.

After all, the dinosaur appearances in Hollywood movies were also conceptualized—their forms were inferred and imagined based on the fossil skeletons, artificially filled with flesh and blood.

Compared to real dinosaurs, they may not be accurate.

These gigantic creatures "ruled" this world for ages, while the Stone Tree quietly, silently observed this world, growing slowly on its own.

Chen Yan further felt that after the Stone Tree’s two attempts at communicating consciousness with approaching dinosaurs failed, there seemed to be a trace of disappointment in its consciousness.

Eventually, one day, countless meteors fell from the sky, carrying fire, roaring down...

Then came the earth’s tremors, quakes, rolling, followed by a sky-covering fire spreading, thick smoke...

The once green world was engulfed in a boundless and possibly never-ending sea of fire...

Those colossal dinosaurs fell one by one, met their demise.

The earth’s tremors grew more intense, volcanic eruptions...

The world began a cycle of renewal.

This great fire lasted possibly hundreds of years, maybe thousands, perhaps tens of thousands of years.

Then, smoke shrouded the sky, and everything between heaven and earth became chaotic, dark, without sunlight.

The temperature began to drop.

Initially, volcanic ash fell from the sky, then turned into white ice and snow.

The Stone Tree was covered by ice and snow, buried beneath the ice for a very long time.

The viewing speed accelerated again!

The Stone Tree did not sleep; it still quietly waited and observed, carrying a trace of expectation within its consciousness.

Finally, when the ice and snow began to melt, and the Stone Tree saw daylight again, the world’s ecology changed.

Newly emerged species replaced the former dinosaurs.

Chen Yan saw some familiar figures.

He saw mammoths as mentioned in legends, some large feline-like creatures, and even the ancient giant sloths.

The Stone Tree made several more attempts, releasing consciousness to animals approaching it.

Again, there was no response, so it withdrew its consciousness in disappointment, quietly observing this world.

Until one day, the playback screen abruptly stopped!

Or rather, instead of stopping, it suddenly shifted to a normal playback speed.

Probably, in the consciousness of the Stone Tree, this moment’s memory is extremely important.

Chen Yan saw...

A face, a face very close to the facial contour of modern humans.

Though there were some differences in facial features compared to modern humans, Chen Yan could confirm:

This is a human! An ancient human!
