Volume 1 The Age of Chaos Chapter 5 Three Hundred Years of Desolation
In the tent, Fang Bajiu's deep and old voice was echoing, Qi Wanli lowered his head and listened very carefully, not letting go of a word, and his expression did not change much, but no one knew what kind of great changes his heart had undergone.
"The beginning of the glorious age was due to the fact that the Creator God has endowed mankind with unparalleled creativity and imagination, and they have approached the heights of the gods through mechanical technology and the extreme use of various energies. As long as a helpless child has mastered the technology, he can use machinery to go to the sea and even use weapons that can destroy millions of people. At the same time, creativity and imagination brought them endless greed, so that the people of the glorious era, although they had mastered the most sophisticated technology, fell into endless wars and deceptions, and the true gods gradually could not bear the fall of mankind in the land where the gods were born, so they created a cataclysm and confiscated everything that the people of the glory days had created. ”
"The cataclysm changed the shape of the continents and the oceans, turning the mountains into plains, bustling cities sinking to the bottom of the sea, and rising peaks rising into the sky on the endless grasslands. Humanity was almost wiped out in the cataclysm, and they begged for forgiveness from the true God, who agreed to the request of mankind, but decided to confiscate the creativity and imagination of mankind, and He reduced the heavens and the earth to darkness, giving only the most basic qualifications for human existence. Over the next eighty years, the true God domesticated humanity into a humble, honest, and virtuous race. ”
"But there are still people in the human race who are unwilling to be tamed, who are tempted by the outer gods to become the servants of the outer gods, and these people have approached the true god with their wit, and have become the servants of the true god, and have served the true god all year round. After that, they used the time of the true god's rest to annihilate the consciousness of the true god with the black demonization of the outer god professor, and the true god was ...... Fallen. ”
"But the power and might of the true God are endless, and although His consciousness is extinguished, his body is transformed into five gods. The outer gods thought that the true gods had fallen and could seize this land, but they did not expect that the true gods would turn into five gods, so the divine war began. ”
"The outer gods, who have a powerful ability similar to those of the true gods, are also trying to create a cataclysm that will bring the heavens and the earth to an end. But the five gods worked together to reverse the cataclysm. ”
"The head of the true god is like a huge octopus like a mountain, he has suppressed the sea, calmed the raging seas, calmed the terrible hurricanes, and fought the outer gods with hundreds of tentacles that reach to the sky, and he proclaims himself the lord of the abyss, in charge of the seas and storms. ”
"The body of the true God has been transformed into a tree that covers the heavens and the earth, He has suppressed the earth, the great roots of the tree have stabilized the turbulent ground, and the lush branches and leaves have brought endless life to the world, so that the wounded people in the cataclysm can be healed, and He calls himself the Tree of the World, in charge of the earth and life. ”
"The eyes of the true gods turned into a pair of yin and yang fish, they rekindled the extinguished sun and moon, regained the light of heaven and earth, and created a powerful protection outside the heaven and earth with the power of the sun and moon, making it difficult for the power of the outer gods to enter, they called themselves the sun and moon and the double fish, and ruled the sun, moon and sky. ”
"The limbs of the true god turned into a powerful warrior, he has an incomparably strong body and supreme divine might, he calms the minds of human beings disturbed by the outer gods, guides human beings to fight against the monsters of the outer gods into the world, and even strikes the outer gods with a pair of fists in the god war, he calls himself the martial god, in charge of power and war. ”
"The heart of the true God turned into a jewel, He spread the remnants of the divine power of the true God to the world, so that human beings can use the divine power and cultivate themselves, He created the first hundred transcendent human beings in the world, and then he also turned into pure divine power to infiltrate the heavens and the earth, bringing hope for the future of mankind, He has disappeared but is everywhere, once called himself the heart of silence, in charge of divine power and hope. ”
"The five gods have driven the outer gods out of the world, but the true gods have fallen. After that, the gods remembered that humanity had fought against the outer gods and decided to put an end to the Dark Ages, and they allowed humanity to choose a god to believe in and practice the secret methods of that god's mission, seeking to push the limits and become transcendent. Humanity has great respect for the gods, promising to stop being obsessed with the power of machines and trying to challenge the power of the gods, but to devote themselves to their service. ”
"The gods have told humanity that the threat of the outer gods is still there, and that there are still many monsters that the outer gods have thrown into the world, and that after the outer gods have been driven away, they have gathered in unknown corners, ready to invade humanity at any time. But the five gods have already expended a great deal of power in the divine war, and they must fall into a long slumber, so it is up to humanity to clean up the monsters. ”
"The Lord of the Abyss sleeps in the Pacific Ocean, and his followers call themselves the Abyssal Emissaries, who live on ships and islands of the sea, and cultivate the power of the sea and the power of storms;"
"The World Tree sleeps in the Eastern Continent, and its followers call themselves the Guardians of Life, who live on the huge body of the World Tree, cultivating the power of the earth and the power of life;"
"The sun and moon Pisces sleep in the sun and the bright moon, and his followers call themselves Sky Walkers, walking the world and cultivating the divine power of the stars;"
"The Martial God is sleeping in the Southern Continent, and his followers call themselves martial artists, and most of them settle in the Southern Continent and cultivate the power of war;"
"The Silent Heart is everywhere, no one knows if he will be able to reunite the entity one day, he is more special, because the Silent Heart disappeared too early, he was not able to pass on the complete secret method, only the first hundred transcendents knew the general cultivation method, but these transcendents almost all died in the Divine War, and now there is no news of them or their descendants in the world. But the Silent Heart believers still exist, and they exchange materials or other things for the qualification to follow the followers of other gods, so any transcendent can be a Silent Heart believer. ”
"We Nanlin people are believers in the Martial God, we believe in strength and cultivate the divine power of war, but the qualifications of the people in our tribe are very average, only my Fang Bajiu has broken through the third order of martial arts and become a transcendent grandmaster. However, I am already at this age, and I am afraid that I will not be able to win the rank of a fourth-order great master in this life. ”
Speaking of those legends, Fang Bajiu suddenly sighed. Qi Wanli, who originally regarded these immortals and transcendents as ethereal legends, was stunned for a moment and asked, "Is there anything special different between transcendent and ordinary people?
Fang Bajiu smiled: "Flying is the exclusive domain of Sky Walkers, and as for the retreat, it can only be done by the Life Dependents." Our martial artists cultivate their own physical bodies, and after breaking through the third order, they can release their internal forces and fight objects in the air, and the various functions of the body will also break through the limits of human beings. ”
Qi Wanli opened his mouth, but he didn't say anything, the amount of information was too large, and he still needed to digest it slowly. So in the end, all you can say is, "You go on." ”
"About history, in fact, it has been said more or less. Fang Bajiu said a little dryly, he walked out of the tent and poured himself a glass of water back, and continued: "For those who have not advanced to the transcendental, they are not allowed to know the details of the divine war and the story of the true god, this is not a malicious concealment, but without the support of extraordinary power, they cannot bear the weight of history, so I hope you don't tell others what they heard today." ”
Qi Wanli didn't quite understand what "the heaviness of history" was, but then he suddenly thought of a point and asked, "But ...... I'm not extraordinary, so why should I listen to this history?"
Hearing this question, Fang Bajiu instead showed a surprised expression: "How can you not be extraordinary? No matter which god's believer, only by breaking through the fifth order can he extend his lifespan, otherwise he will live to be more than a hundred years old at most, and you have slept for three hundred years in one sleep, and your appearance is still so young, how can you not be extraordinary?"
Qi Wanli didn't know how to explain, so he could only say: "It seems that the people of our era are different from you......"
Fang Bajiu naturally accepted this statement, perhaps in their opinion, those omnipotent humans in the glory era are naturally different from the people in the wasteland era now.
Next, Fang Bajiu gave a general introduction to some of the current situation in this era, Qi Wanli took the opportunity to raise questions about Haimen City, Fang Bajiu frowned, and said: "Xiao Tian told you right, according to records, Haimen City did sink to the bottom of the sea in the divine war more than two hundred years ago, and our tribe has not explored, but we are very close to the sea here, and once received the abyss messenger traveler from the sea, and he told us that there is such a city ruin in a glorious era not far from us, which is called Haimen City." ”
Qi Wanli's heart tightened, and asked Fang Bajiu some details around this statement, and after scrutiny, he thought that Fang Bajiu was not lying. That is to say, three hundred years later, an abyss messenger, he knows which city is a ruin that has long sunk to the bottom of the sea, which is completely different from the knowledge reserve that Fang Bajiu showed for his time. Is it the higher-level transcendent who can know more, or is there something else?
After Fang Bajiu probably explained what he knew, it was naturally Qi Wanli's turn to tell about the "glorious era", but at this time, Qi Wanli hesitated.
The history that Fang Bajiu said is obviously different from what he knows. There were no "true gods" in his time, although there were many religious beliefs, but most of these were the remnants of the ruling tools of the ruling class in history, or some spiritual sustenance of people, and did not mean that there were real gods. But now this world, which seems to be ruled by the gods and their followers, if the truth is told, will there be anything bad? Or, to put it mildly, can the old man in front of him be able to bear the fact that the history he knows and believes in is actually false?
However, thinking of this, Qi Wanli suddenly remembered a sentence.
"The old world is about to be destroyed, and I am the Lord and the only true God, and I will save you from fire and water, and I will take you to the new world to create a new civilization. ”
Qi Wanli's heart suddenly cooled, and before he could have new questions and conjectures, the electronic and mechanical sound in his memory actually sounded again, but this voice was only in his head, and Fang Bajiu, who was sitting opposite, seemed to be completely inaudible.
"You...... Would you like to ...... Help me...... Return to Godhood...... Reproduce...... Brilliant civilization?"
