Qiu Lan replied, "Because these ancient gods are not one person, but a group. To be more accurate, names such as Queen Mother of the West and Nuwa are more like a title and a god name. ”

Li Bo somewhat understood: "You mean, the ancient gods are also passed down from generation to generation?" ”

"That's right." Qiu Lan nodded and said, "According to the records, the first batch of ancient gods did not survive for too long because they did not adapt to the new environment on the earth. But they left behind a lot of knowledge, materials, and bio-modification plans that the successors could continue to study along the path they had planned. ”

"Originally, before each generation of the Elder Gods died, they would create highly intelligent successors. But as I said before, before humans, they created intelligent beings that either could not adapt to the environment on Earth, or could not reproduce in large numbers. Therefore, these intelligent creatures are very few in number, and eventually they all disappear, leaving only a few words of description in some myths and legends. ”

"After the birth of human beings, the thrones of the Queen Mother of the West, Nuwa and other gods were inherited by human beings. Therefore, in many myths, the ancient gods can take on human form in addition to their peculiar appearances. And after inheriting these gods, human beings did not stop conducting biological experiments. They are not satisfied with imitating the Extraterritorial Heavenly Demons, they want to improve their genes and create a higher-level lifeform that surpasses the Extraterritorial Heavenly Demons! ”

"Did they succeed?" Ling Yiyi couldn't help but ask.

Ling Xi glanced at his sister, and complained angrily: "Are you stupid? If it succeeds, even if it can't destroy the extraterritorial heavenly demons, it can still keep the extraterritorial celestial demons out of the solar system like the civilization to which the ancient gods belonged, and they can still set off a world war? Destroy all the immortals? ”

Ling Yiyi, who was scolded for being stupid, was very unhappy, glared at her brother, and pinched her finger bones with a 'click' sound, calling him by his name: "Ling Xi, you have itchy skin, right?!" ”

Ling Xi decisively admitted it, but on the surface he couldn't admit defeat, and hummed: "Good men don't fight with women, I'll let you go." ”

Ling Yiyi was furious, and she wanted to teach Ling Xi a lesson.

In desperation, Luo Yun stopped him and said, "Okay, you two don't quarrel, listen to Qiu Lan." ”

Ling Yiyi wanted to listen to Luo Yun's words, glared at Ling Xi and said, "I will give the mountain lord face, and I don't care about you." ”

"Obviously, I don't care about you......" Ling Xi muttered, but he didn't dare to say it out loud.

After the two stopped arguing, Qiu Lan continued: "Yiyi's question, it's a good question, I was about to say it." According to the records, although the research of the Western Queen Mother, Nuwa and other gods was not completely successful, it also made some gains. Many of the drugs in this laboratory are modified to modify human bodies and genes. Unfortunately, although the names and effects of some drugs are recorded in the information, there is no indication of where these drugs are placed and what they look like......"

Luo Yun took out a medicine bottle and sighed: "It is estimated that the name was once attached to the vessel containing these medicines, but the paper on it is either rotten, or the handwriting has become faint and unreadable...... Only research experiments can be conducted to determine their usefulness. ”

After a pause, he asked again, "Is there anything else on the data?" ”

Qiu Lan looked at it for a while before saying, "Many of these materials are academic articles on biological research and transformation. However, there are also some records of some events that have happened in history. ”

According to these materials, human civilization has had a period of glory in ancient times. At that time, it was easy for humans to be able to cultivate the city god. Not only because the aura on the earth was very strong and the resources were abundant at that time, but also because of the human divine bridge, it was easy to collapse in the past! ”

"During that period, the human race established a glorious Xiuzhen civilization, and even repelled several attacks by the Extraterritorial Heavenly Demons, allowing the Extraterritorial Heavenly Demons to plunder only a small part of the resources. Unfortunately, this favorable situation did not last forever. After suffering several losses, the Extraterritorial Heavenly Demon dropped a special virus on humans...... This virus, in Greek mythology, is called Pandora's box! ”

"This virus has eroded the human bridge and made it impassable. Since then, the number of human beings becoming gods has dwindled. Even if you can become a god, the time and resources consumed are several times or even dozens of times that of before! Xiuzhen civilization has since gone from glory to decay. Fortunately, the earth's environment has not changed greatly, and the human reproduction ability is strong, so it has not perished, but has been preserved, only from the original national immortals, to a small number of elites to become gods......"

Luo Yun had long known that the mist on the Divine Bridge was added by the Extraterritorial Heavenly Demon. However, the specific reason is only now known.

Qiu Lan continued: "In addition, in the pre-Qin period more than 2,300 years ago, there was a flourishing academic scene in our country, and in ancient Greece at the same time, there were also outstanding scholars one after another. During that period, there was a rapid and vigorous development of various disciplines. Much of this knowledge has influenced more than 2,000 years later, and is still relevant today. ”

"It's a pity that neither the hundred schools of thought nor the ancient Greek civilization have been able to develop sustainably, and after the glory, they quickly decay and disappear. For more than 2,000 years, the development of various disciplines has been slow, and some disciplines have even become stagnant. It is only in modern times that there has been a leap forward in various disciplines......"

"Could it be that this matter is also related to the Extraterritorial Heavenly Demon?" Luo Yun asked.

"Yes!" Qiu Lan nodded and said, "According to the records in the data, after the Extraterritorial Heavenly Demon noticed that human civilization had a blowout development in science and technology, he was worried that it would develop a high-tech civilization like the previous human cultivation civilization, so he used some special means to 'lock' the development of human science and technology. That's why human civilization is stagnant. It was not until modern times, because the extraterritorial heavenly demons had to prepare for a new plunder, and they neglected to take precautions, that the gods found a way to break through the blockade and cracked this special 'lock', so that human science and technology have undergone earth-shaking changes in just over a hundred years! ”

Ling Xi's expression became extremely serious at this moment, and he muttered, "The Extraterritorial Heavenly Demon is not only scheming, but also far above us in cultivation and technology. Blockade the Divine Bridge and lock up the technological ...... These things that seem unbelievable and unimaginable to us have been done by them, which is really terrible! ”

Luo Yun nodded and sighed, "That's right, it's indeed a group of terrible enemies. ”
