Chapter 5 History of the Continent

After Miao Zhen left, Mo Liang casually chose a room, changed into the clothes he had just collared, and then left the small courtyard.

Walking on the road, Mo Liang casually found a disciple walking on the road and asked for the address of the library building, and walked straight in one direction.

After walking for about a pillar of incense, Mo Liang came to a three-story building pavilion, the three big characters of the library pavilion on the pavilion were shining in the sun, and the building as a whole was made of wood, which looked simple and atmospheric, and there were many disciples who came and went in it.

When Mo Liang walked into the Scripture Pavilion, he saw rows of bookshelves sitting in it, with many books placed on them, and many disciples wearing the same costumes standing in front of the shelves were selecting the books they needed.

Mo Liang glanced at it roughly, the first floor of the entire library pavilion was basically full of some ordinary books, and there were very few exercises and spiritual skills to cultivate, and the exercises that were really valuable were all on the upper two floors.

Fortunately, Mo Liang did not come to the Library Pavilion for the so-called spiritual skills, but just to find out how many years have passed since the Great Tribulation and how many things have happened since the Great Tribulation, so that he can better understand the current continent so that he can act in the future.

"Found it."

Mo Liang shuttled through the rows of bookshelves, and finally found a book covered with thick dust under the bookshelf in the corner of the row, it seemed that no one had picked it up for a long time, and it was estimated that even the disciples who cleaned the library had selectively forgotten about it.

Mo Liang picked up the book and gently blew off the floating ash on the surface, the surface of the book was printed with five juanxiu fonts "Chronicle of the Continent", and there was a line of small characters at the bottom, the author Nalan Hongyan.

Mo Liang opened the book and looked at it carefully, and when he closed the last page and looked up from the book, he found that he didn't know when, the sky outside had completely darkened, and the entire library was surrounded by fluorescent stones, emitting a crystal light, reflecting the entire library as bright as day.

Unconsciously, Mo Liang had been in the library for nearly a day, and he had finally finished reading the entire "Chronicle of the Continent" and had a general understanding of history.

"Nearly 10,000 years have passed." Mo Liang looked out the window at the night and muttered to himself, in the deep night, there were still many houses lit with candles, like stars in the night.

According to the "Chronicle of the Continent", nearly 10,000 years have passed from the time when Mo Liang was asleep, and that period was now an ancient civilization by the current monks, and the current Taoist system originated from the ancient civilization.

According to the book, 10,000 years ago, the monk was angry with the Heavenly Dao because his cultivation was too against the sky, and the Heavenly Dao sent down heavenly punishments, and I don't know when there was a disaster that destroyed the world and the earth, and the specific disaster can no longer be verified, but what is certain is that in that great catastrophe, countless inheritances were cut off, countless strong geniuses fell, and the Dao system of the entire continent was almost extinct.

Even though they knew that they would inevitably perish in the catastrophe, they were unwilling to die with the catastrophe, so they used various means to cover the heavens, and sealed the secret methods above their own Dao system in the catastrophe, wanting to regain the glory of the past again after the difficulty of the catastrophe.

These Dao systems that have been sealed with supreme secret methods may be the ruins of some ancient sects, or the places where some peerless powerhouses sit, which are called ancient ruins by the current monks.

Today's continent has gradually recovered some vitality in the five hundred years after the Great Tribulation, and the book refers to the era after the Great Tribulation as the ancient era, and the origin of the current Taoist system is inherited from the ancient era.

According to the book, it is said that a mortal who went up the mountain to chop wood fell from the mountain, not only did not die, but accidentally found a sealed ancient ruin, and obtained the ancient inheritance in that ruins, so as to be reborn and soar into the sky.

As soon as the story of this woodcutter came out, countless people rushed to find the ancient ruins, but it really allowed them to find many relics left behind in the catastrophe, these people are the first batch of monks on the continent after the catastrophe, after thousands of years of development and more and more ancient ruins have been developed, coupled with the efforts of countless people for thousands of years, the civilization of the continent is now becoming more and more prosperous, although it is still not comparable with the glorious world of the ancient era, but it has evolved a lot of Taoism that even the ancient civilization can not compare, After all, the ancients were used to transcend.

All in all, after nearly 10,000 years of development, the current mainland has evolved a complete set of cultivation system, has its own cultivation civilization, and has evolved many cultivation sects and cultivation families, making the mainland full of sects, and the inheritance of the family is all over the world.

It is worth mentioning that almost every sect is built on a ruin, and the more powerful the sect, the larger the ruins, because some ruins are also famous super sects in ancient times, and it is not very easy to be developed completely after being sealed, and some ruins are fixed when they are opened once, and they can be entered and explored at any time. And once the ruins close themselves, the people in them will surely die.

But this kind of time-limited relics are often more precious than the kind of relics that have been fixed and open, so generally the big sects and big forces occupy one or several time relics, and even directly build the sect on the ruins, and establish the sect on the site of the ancient sect, and invisibly obtain the luck blessing of the ancient sect and the sect.

The last sentence was marked with a question mark on the "Chronicles of the Continent", and it was obvious that even the person who compiled the book was not sure whether the establishment of a new sect on the ruins of the ancient sect would really be blessed with luck, so he maintained a skeptical attitude.

Although there are many cultivation sects or families on the mainland, they follow the principle of attaching the strong with the weak, and paying tribute but not attacking, which means that if a sect wants to gain a foothold, it must find a sect that is stronger than itself as a backer, become a vassal of a strong sect, and send tribute to its own backer every year to obtain the protection of a powerful sect, so as not to make its own sect or family be swallowed up by other sects and families.

In this way, the cultivation structure of the entire continent is like a pyramid, and the higher you go, the fewer backers you can find, and the forces at the top of the pyramid control countless large and small sect families under their hands, and they are the emperors of the entire cultivation world.

"It's a lot like 10,000 years ago."

Mo Liang smiled lightly, 10,000 years ago, the Taixu Sword Sect where he was located was the cultivation sect located at the top of the pyramid, and the sect families who wanted to attach themselves to the Taixu Sword Sect to seek refuge did not know how many, but after 10,000 years, no matter how powerful the sect was, it would inevitably be destroyed and become a thin page in history.
