Chapter 1: The Vast Continent
This is a special world, people in this world do not have high-end modern technology, nor do they have any gorgeous magic, but everyone is born with a special innate power - spiritual power.
This kind of spiritual power is also called innate spiritual power, and innate spiritual power is generally only a hundred points at most.
Of course, there are also some people who are able to awaken some special constitutions.
Some of these physiques can speed up cultivation and make cultivation twice as effective with half the effort.
Some constitutions grant the owner powerful attack or defense.
On this continent, the hierarchy of cultivators who cultivate spiritual power is strictly divided, first-order, second-order, third-order, fourth-order, fifth-order, sixth-order, seventh-order, eighth-order, and ninth-order. Each level is divided into levels 1 to 9.
On this continent, the ninth rank and ninth rank were the highest cultivation that ordinary cultivators could achieve.
And above the ninth order and ninth level, there are even more powerful existences.
That's demigod and god.
Demigod-level powerhouses and god-level powerhouses were generally above ordinary ninth-order ninth-level cultivators.
A demigod-level powerhouse can already mobilize some of the power of nature for his own use, and the speed at which his spiritual power is restored is more than twice that of an ordinary ninth-order cultivator.
And the spiritual power of a god-level powerhouse is endless, and the power of nature is his power.
This continent is called the Misty Continent.
It's not ordinary humans living on this continent.
Rather, it is an orc race that has some animal characteristics, can walk upright, and has advanced intelligence.
This continent used to be inhabited by hundreds of billions of humans, but after this continent was hit by a meteorite, there was a dark age - the age of dragons.
Dragons are not natives of the continent, they are foreign invaders who emerged from the vicinity of the meteorite.
They used their special powers to turn the humans on this continent into orcs with some animal characteristics, and the animals also turned into demonic beasts with intelligence, human language, and self-cultivation. He then ruled the continent for nearly a hundred years.
After being changed, whether it was an orc or a demonic beast, they all found that they had a special power in their bodies - spiritual power.
This reunification is the first and only time that all the forces in the Vast Continent have been unified.
Later generations called this unification a century-old catastrophe.
And after decades of domination, nine young men and women with different elemental abilities appeared in the forest in the middle of this vast continent.
They wield different weapons in their hands, and along the way, they constantly confront the dragons and liberate various regions.
After all kinds of difficulties and various adventures, he finally succeeded in sealing the dragon clan and ending this dark age.
Because they did not leave their names, later generations referred to them as the Nine Elemental Heroes or the Nine Heroes.
There is some record of their deeds in almost every country.
Eventually, they also established their own race, and one of them guarded the seal.
And the artifacts they possess are also scattered all over the continent.
At first, the nine races were often in contact with each other, but as time went by, the connection between the nine races became less and less.
Even the other races no longer know which race is responsible for guarding the seal, and they are gradually forgetting the former artifact or treating it as a legend.
If anyone else remembers what race these nine races are, then there is only one race, and that is the race sealed by them - the dragon race!
On this continent, every race, every force, and every country has its own special cultivation methods, and there are even some exercises created by individuals.
There are also levels of these exercises, which are generally divided into four levels.
They are the human level, the earth level, the heavenly level and the god level.
The human-level exercises are the most common exercises for the operation of spiritual power, and almost every small tribe has them.
The rules of earth-level exercises are only available in small countries or major cities of large countries, and even some small sects are used as town exercises.
And the Heavenly Rank Gong Law is in the hands of the royal families of various big countries, and of course some powerful sects may also have it.
As for the god-level exercises, they are almost just legends, and there are very few people who have seen the god-level exercises, but all those who have cultivated the god-level exercises have become a generation of powerhouses in the mainland at that time.
On this continent, there are endless adventures.
There is such a sentence flowing from the mainland
"If one day you accidentally fall off a cliff or get trapped in the deep mountains and old forests, don't be afraid, don't panic, take two steps forward, or look up and dig down, maybe you can get some unexpected adventures."
Because of this rumor, almost every year on the Vast Continent, there are people who either jump off cliffs or rush into the deep mountains and old forests.
But the consequences for most of these people are gone.
Among those who returned, the one who found the adventure was also one in hundreds of thousands.
More people who came back only had half a life left, or even only one breath, and the injuries on their bodies were even more miserable.
But even so, the number of people doing so has not decreased, but has increased.
There is no shortage of people in this continent who have extremely poor cultivation talents, and those who have extremely poor cultivation talents like to try this one in 100,000 possibility because of their extremely poor cultivation talents and their desire to have strong strength, because once they succeed, they may fly up to the branches and pheasants become phoenixes.
The desire for strength is what motivates them to do these seemingly ridiculous things.
Of course, in addition to the exercises, there are also secret and forbidden arts.
The arcane technique is a special spell that can greatly enhance one's combat effectiveness after use, and does not have any side effects on oneself.
Arcane arts are divided into five main categories: defense, attack, amplification, body technique, and control.
Forbidden arts, on the other hand, are not so differentiated, they only have three categories: amplification, attack, and defense.
Although it is powerful after use, it also comes at a cost, and most of it is manifested as damage to the body.
And even the weapons used are ranked.
On this vast continent, the most powerful weapons are called artifacts, and they are often accompanied by the appearance of machine spirits, which belong to the kind of special energy existence that is intelligent but inanimate.
The second-level weapons are demigods, and compared to the artifacts, they do not have the spirit of the weapon, nor do they have such a strong energy of heaven and earth. However, their attack power is second only to artifacts. Under certain circumstances, it is also possible for them to evolve into artifacts.
Underneath the demigod artifact is the spiritual weapon, which can greatly enhance the strength of the holder, and constantly provide the holder with a steady stream of spiritual power.
The weapons of the second level are called pseudo-spirit weapons, and they can only slightly enhance the strength of the person they hold, and the other weapons are completely indistinguishable from ordinary weapons.
The most inferior weapon is an ordinary weapon without any aura, and this kind of weapon is generally used as a standard weapon for ordinary soldiers, with low attack power and no growth at all.
In addition to standard weapons, other weapons have a certain degree of growth, and as long as they are done properly, they can be advanced to higher-level weapons.
In other words, theoretically speaking, even a pseudo-spirit weapon can become an artifact through a long period of growth.
Of course, this is only theoretically possible, has anyone ever done this? Has anyone ever succeeded? Nobody knows.
Because it takes a long time to grow from a pseudo-spirit weapon to an artifact.
And the higher the cultivation, the longer the lifespan you can have.
Moreover, it is said that if you can cultivate to the god level and become a god-level powerhouse, then you can obtain eternal life.
But there are very few people who can really cultivate to the god level, and they are completely rare.
After cultivating to the fifth level of the ninth order or the sixth level of the ninth order, the orc clan will comprehend a powerful natal skill, which will be the strongest ability they can use except for secret techniques and forbidden arts, and it is also the ability they generally use as the bottom of the box.
On this continent, there are wars every day, wars between ethnic groups, wars between sects, and even wars between countries.
Although they are fighting every day, the number of casualties is not too high. Because they have been on guard against the original Hundred Years of Catastrophe, or the creators of the Hundred Years of Catastrophe - the Dragons!
But even so, there was a large-scale killing in one part of the Vast Continent.
What was supposed to be a day of great joy turned out to be a day of calamity for a community.
