329. The Gate of the Spirit Realm
"To tell you the truth, it is not a legend, but a place where we Jidu people still live, and where the Atlanteans once ruled. The myths you know, wellβit's just that we wanted the humans of the time to think so. β
"You mean, that's all a lie of history?" Su Zheyi frowned.
"No, you know, real histories are artificially written, or ratherβthey have been falsified to suit the interests of the rulers of the time."
Long Waitian shook his head and sighed.
"How do you convince us that what you say is the truth?"
Joyna turned suddenly, her red hair flowing down her cheeks, her eyes fixed on Long Waitian and asked.
"Hmphβit doesn't matter to me, believe it or not."
"Well, we believe it. So, what is the real situation? β
Long Yantian paused and continued.
"The Atlanteans at that time, they did have a high degree of technological civilization, which was even higher than the level of civilization before you. And, all the things you've done about studying weapons, genes, viruses, particles, planetary energy...... Everything is just following in their footsteps. β
Su Zhe and Joyna both bowed their heads silently after hearing this, thinking about what he said.
They all knew exactly what he meant.
Su Zhe remembered the ore that had been dug up hundreds of years ago from a pit thousands of meters deep in the southern hemisphere, and the results of the investigation showed that it was a huge place where nuclear waste was dumped, and that the area was under the sea tens of millions of years ago.
At this time, regardless of whether what Long Yantian said was true or false, some facts were indeed as he said, which both of them had personally experienced, and they could not be changed.
"And then? You Jidu people and they have all been living on that continent, but why did you ...... later," Su Zhe asked again.
"The years that followed became very difficult, not only because of the development of science and technology, but also when they touched the forbidden things, and under the impulse of madmen and madmen, the time and space there were completely ruined by them!"
"Ruined? You mean, that continent is ruined? β
"Yes. They created a strange realm, and in order to solve those troubles once and for all, they used artifacts to expand the rift in time and space, sending out large armies. At the same time, those places are also the hubs connecting time and space, and the strange continent has opened its passage, and the passage of time will never stop! β
"Oh my God! How did they do it? β
"How? The devil knows - they think their technology is in control of the ultimate codes, and their ignorant scholars don't expect that more and more creatures will pass through or come here. It was born in the land of nothingness, a combination of spirit and mental powerβthe forbidden ancient gods! β
When Su Zhe heard this, his body trembled unconsciously, but neither of the other two noticed.
"I don't quite understand, are the forbidden ancient gods you are talking about, are they the ones who brought the 'beast tide'?" Joyna asked.
"That's what the Atlanteans call them, not so much that they're monsters, but that they're a highly evolved race somewhere. Unlike the brainless beasts of human mutations, they are led by a higher superior race, intelligent and sensible, but their populations are scarce. β
"Those superior races...... Like a 'moon beast'? Su Zhe asked.
He remembered that the master also seemed to know the origin of these things.
But what is it exactly? Where did it come from?
"Hmph - the Moon Beasts are also one of those races, and while some of them are powerful, they are not a superior race, at best they are only better than those brainless deviants. In addition, there are the blood and wolf clans, and there are many other races, they are all low-level servant races, and those who are truly powerful are the beings known as the 'ancient gods', and they will not easily let people see their true nature. β
Joyna nodded, she had heard the dragon complain about the "beast tide".
"So, how did you guys deal with it? And how did they survive? β
"Later, relying on the powerful armies and samurai of our Jidu people with spiritual power, we fought against them in the long years and on the vast battlefield. In the end, it took a lot of effort for us to seal and banish those things back. β
Long Yantian used to be the god of war and general of the Jidu people, leading countless soldiers to fight against those so-called alien races.
He was well aware of the brutal methods of the Jidu people against the aliens, and he himself had been ordered to use them.
If the Senate had listened to him, given up the tactics and weapons provided by the Atlanteans, and had not joined forces with them, perhaps there would have been no such as it had been.
The alien army is made up of savage creatures of countless races, who have no mercy or so-called emotion, and their violent blood is full of desire to devour and destroy, as well as endless killing.
The superior races command the chaotic lower creatures, as well as the sanity-stripped and mutated Atlanteans, who swarm like locusts.
The lower races, known as the "Beast Tide", almost fanatically enforce the will of the superior races and the ancient gods, and everywhere they pass is not a single grass, and there is splattered blood and burning buildings everywhere.
They blocked every street in their city, and all the cities and towns collapsed in the smoke and dust, and turned into a pile of rubble in the baptism of time.
If the people of Jidu hadn't developed spiritual power at that time, a weapon that can enhance their abilities, it is estimated that they would have been wiped out in the conflict with countless alien races, just like those Atlanteans.
"They will attack us with the main forces, under the cover of a thick fog. And we can't fight them head-on, that would drag all our forces into a quagmire from which we will never recover. β
"What's in the fog?" Joyna asked.
"It's an unknown energy with a plague, it's like a black evil, it's terrifying!"
"The fog covered the whole city, and when our soldiers inhaled this fog, first they would feel their lungs burning, then they would feel nauseous, they would start vomiting uncontrollably, and finally they would faint and fall to the ground after spitting up blood, and the skin would begin to appear with herpes and abnormal tissue, and many soldiers would be hit."
"Oh my God, how similar this is to the virus that is raging in the Mine City right now!"
Su Zhe was shocked when he heard this.
"But luckily I came back to life, and when I woke up, I found myself in a dark place where I couldn't reach my fingers, and I tried to contact the Great Elders, but there was no response...... This is a punishment for our ignorance! β
Long Yuan continued in a calm tone as dignified as he could.
"Later, we were rescued by the pioneers, who brought some kind of sap mixed with spiritual grass to ward off those fogs with spiritual power."
"Spirit grass? Did you get rid of the fog and repel them? β
"Yes, we gradually learned their tactics, like animals, patiently waiting for their movements, attacking quickly and violently, hitting with a single blow, then turning and retreating into the shadows. Our legions carefully untangle their scars and look for their weaknesses until they bleed to the last drop of blood! β
"In the end, you won the war?" Joyna asked.
"Of course, we sent an army of cultivators led by countless generals to fight with them, and the lower races that we captured also joined the battle, and in the end, the Great Elders activated the crucible of destruction and sank to the bottom of the sea along with those destroyed cities."
The cold words of the dragon resentment did not fluctuate in the slightest.
Although this happened countless centuries ago, through the general account of the dragon resentment, the two of them shuddered when they thought of the tragic battle situation at that time.
"However, there are many advanced detection methods in our time, why haven't we found the cities you mentioned sinking to the bottom of the sea?"
"You won't know about this kind of thing, in order to close those out-of-control cracks, we actually borrowed the creations of the Atlanteans. In order to prevent another situation beyond our control, we have placed spiritual bans in those places, and we have also become spiritual gates to confuse all intelligent beings, including you, of course. Human beings have no way of knowing what is hidden inside, just like Bermuda, the secret realm of Shambara, the ghost island in the South Pacific, the 'Gate of Hell' in the Kunlun Mountains, ......"
Hearing this, Joyna and Su Zhe suddenly realized that those places that were once known as the most mysterious places on earth were actually the gates of the spiritual realm sealed with spiritual power.
Take the world's most mysterious sea, Bermuda's Devil's Triangle, almost everyone knows about it.
Over the centuries, countless ships and planes have sunk and disappeared in this sea area, making it a well-known accident zone in the Atlantic.
It is said that there were people who saw lightning constantly jumping in the night sky, but there was no thunder at that time. But the lightning flashes so often that the surroundings are brightened, which is really amazing;
Witnesses also saw a terrible dark cloud in the area, with golden fireballs flashing at the edges of the clouds, but there were no thunderbolts at the time, and the fireballs disappeared after a while.
At the time, some scientists believed that the cause of these mysterious tragedies was a powerful discrete electric current wandering over the Earth, or ball lightning.
Others go a step further and believe that it is ultimately the sun's magnetic storms that cause these troubles.
In fact, the magnetic field strength of the so-called "Devil's Sea Area" is indeed highly volatile.
The sun, moon and stars are in constant motion, and their relative positions are constantly changing. When the Earth, the Moon, the Sun and certain stars orbit at a certain point in time, when they are arranged in a straight line in space, the radiant energy of the quasars to the Earth is superimposed.
At this time, the thin crust will be uplifted, and the rifts between the continental plates will open.
And those areas that have been sealed by spiritual power prohibition will have huge energy fluctuations, and the power of the seal is also declining again and again.
Some of the radiation is absorbed by seawater, which dissolves a large amount of salts, making it an excellent electrolyte.
Currents and electromagnetic radiation generated by changes in the underwater topography and volcanic earthquakes can easily reach the surface through the seawater layer, while large amounts of radiation can spread through the atmosphere into space.
The most sensitive to radiation are marine animals, which are in a hurry to run for their lives and often jump onto the beach in a panic. In fact, large groups of marine animal carcasses and even the remains of some creatures that have never been seen before have been found along the coast of the "Devil's Sea Zone" many times.
"Oh my God! Are those spiritual gates the product of your sealing of the otherworld? That...... Haven't they disappeared yet? β
Su Zhe asked in as calm a voice as he could, his face was a little pale, but no one noticed it in the dim place of the night.
"Of course! You don't understand the laws of nature, everything changes over time, the same, different times! In your civilized time, there must have been people who had access to those spiritual gates! β
Long Yantian glanced at him and said coldly.
