Chapter 394: Why Did the Holy Dao Wither?

Since the advent of the Divine Book, the development of the entire human world in literature and Taoism can be described as a rapid progress.

However, in more than a hundred years, such a powerful civilization has been established, compared to the thousands of years of history of the demon race, human beings have undoubtedly taken a shortcut.

But while rapid development, the human powerhouses are gradually discovering that things are far from being as simple as they imagined.

One of the biggest problems is sanctification.

At the beginning of the Divine Book, it was the most vigorous and prosperous era of the entire human civilization, and in that era, sages came out one after another, like wild flowers in the mountains, and they were brilliant everywhere.

However, after the end of the Holy War, there was rarely a purple gold light in the Holy Word Continent, until it was cut off from the demon clan and a great war over interests and races broke out again, and only a few literati seized this last opportunity to become holy.

Among them, there are Huang Tingjian, the double saint of calligraphy and poetry, Wang Xizhi, the saint of calligraphy, and Liu Zhongyong, the saint of poetry, who are also known as the afterglow of the holy order of literature and Taoism.

Since then, the ten kingdoms of the human race have spent a hundred years of relative peace, the power of literature and Taoism continues to prosper, the whole world gradually values the literati, and the people in the martial arts have to avoid their edge, even the Wushuang Academy, which has the longest history, has to succumb to the general trend of literature and Taoism, and begins to introduce literati to teach and encourage students to learn both literature and martial arts.

However, only the strong people of Wendao who have reached the highest point of the pyramid will find that they will never be able to take another half step.

The difficulty of the holy path is difficult to ascend to the blue sky.

Even if the Sacred Word Continent produces so many peerless geniuses every year to break through the mirror to the half-saint, but in the past hundred years, no one has been able to attract the purple gold talent. Achieve the true throne!

Why?

The answer is unknown.

Admittedly, the higher the rank. The lifespan of human beings will also be extended by a certain amount, but except for Shi Shengsima Qian. The rest of the Sages do not possess near-infinite life.

More than 100 years after the end of the holy war, the once glorious Hundred Saints have gradually grown old under the cutting of the years.

Many of them have died one after another because of the incurable old wounds accumulated in the Holy War, or in pursuit of a higher realm of literature and Taoism, and so far, there are less than thirty saints left in the entire holy realm!

Even if you add the deans of the seven major academies and the six Terran Wendao, the total number is less than half a hundred!

If it goes on like this. Maybe after waiting for another hundred years, all the saint-level powerhouses of the entire human civilization will be wiped out, and no one will be able to survive!

It's a terrible thing, so every day there are people thinking about the same question and trying to find the final answer.

Why has there been no saint in the human race for a hundred years?

Now, this puzzle has become the last question of this year's 10-nation joint examination.

But Su Wen didn't know that such a situation was not the first time it had occurred, in fact. In a certain ten-nation joint examination decades ago, there were exactly the same questions.

He didn't even know that the top of the literary examination of that joint entrance examination was called Ji Nantian.

Today. Ji Nantian has become the Canglan Emperor, commanding the entire Tianlan Empire, and wants to start a civil war among the human race. Gather the troops of the Three Kingdoms Alliance to defend the country under the water.

Only a few people know what the real reason for Ji Nantian to start the civil war was. The so-called sweeping away the remnants of the demon clan is just an excuse.

The root cause of this. It needs to be traced back to Ji Nantian's exam paper back then!

What is Ji Nantian's answer to the puzzle of the human race's hundred years of saintlessness?

It's war!

Ji Nantian believes that if you need to become holy, you need to use war, with the help of hundreds of thousands of blood and bones to stimulate the power of the divine book, and attract Zijin talent to descend from the sky!

This is the real one, and it will be a success!

For this reason, Ji Nantian even gave a reason that was difficult to refute, because everyone knew that the most glorious period of the human holy path was during the holy war, and the last saints of the human race also came out of the war.

Therefore, only war can be sanctified!

This is the fundamental reason why Ji Nantian took the risk of becoming a sinner in the history books and launched a civil war for the human race!

Fight and canonize.

Again, cultivation is higher than life and death.

Naturally, it is also higher than the life and death of other people.

Any price is bearable for canonization!

No one knows whether Ji Nantian's speculation is correct, because if you want to verify this answer, you need to pay too heavy a price, and in the past hundred years of the ten kingdoms of the human race, only Ji Nantian has the courage and courage to prove it!

There are many people who know Ji Nantian's ambitions, but there are very few people who can really know his purpose, and most of these people have read Ji Nantian's test paper back then.

Among them, there are naturally saints from all over the world.

In order to make Ji Nantian give up the idea of civil war, these old guys can be regarded as doing their last part. ”

Lu Yu sighed slightly, he knew that although the Holy Domain could not interfere in the civil war, it could never watch the lives and the human world fall apart, so they added such a question to the ten-nation joint examination this time.

What I hope is that someone can give a different but convincing answer from Ji Nantian.

I hope that such an answer can persuade Ji Nantian to give up the civil war and take the initiative to withdraw his troops.

Huasheng Wang Hao stood beside Lu Yu and shook his head with a wry smile: "It's useless, Ji Nantian is extremely proud and conceited, as long as it is the truth he recognizes, he will never look back." ”

Truth is two words, and naturally it is also two meanings, but whether it is Tao or reason, for Ji Nantian, he will only trust his own judgment.

The so-called "no turning back" means that even if you know that you are wrong, you must be wrong to win this war!

Lu Yu sighed lightly: "It's not something that your good apprentice provoked, if it weren't for this, Ji Nantian would never start a war so soon, as long as we give us a few more years, maybe we won't be so passive." ”

Wang Hao shot back unceremoniously: "Even if Shen Mu has never betrayed our clan, you will also have a Liu Shishi to defend the country, no matter what, you will not be able to escape!"

Lu Yu smiled bitterly and was silent, after a long time. only then did he come to the final conclusion: "In this way, we are not defeated by Ji Nantian." Instead, he was defeated at the hands of the demon high priest. ”

Hearing this, Wang Hao's heart moved. Suddenly, he frowned, and said solemnly: "But, why does the high priest know Ji Nantian's determination?"

Lu Yu's expression was slightly stunned, and he understood the deep meaning of Wang Hao's words.

This was followed by great vigilance.

Wang Hao's question is very simple, but the final answer is definitely not simple!

The Demon High Priest has no last resort, but he is not a god or a prophet. The stratagems and deployments he makes will come from the collection and analysis of intelligence.

It is true that Ji Nantian's ambition to unify the entire human race is not a secret, but if you want to know Ji Nantian's insistence on launching a civil war, you must know Ji Nantian's theory of becoming holy through war.

And there are only two ways to know about this.

First, the High Priest of the Demon Clan had already contacted Ji Nantian and personally confirmed his determination from the latter's mouth.

Second. It was the high priest of the demon clan who knew the answer that Ji Nantian wrote in the last question of the literary examination in the joint entrance examination!

After a moment of silence, Wang Hao took the lead and said: "Although Ji Nantian's actions are very fast in this civil war, it can be seen. The haste and lack of preparation in this are also indisputable facts. ”

Sometimes, there are some words that only need to be said halfway.

Lu Yu raised his eyebrows slightly. Finally, he said: "Don't publicize this beforehand, it is enough for you and me to know." Next, I thought. We need to find out who were the people who read the papers back then!"

Wang Hao nodded, and then said in a deep voice: "Do you need to call the criminal master for help?"

The person who can make Wang Hao mention his name so solemnly is by no means an ordinary person, this criminal master is also a saint-level powerhouse, and he is a giant who is on the same level as the underground Ming Master, and is one of the six heads of the human race's Wendao!

Lu Yu said suspiciously: "Does the criminal master must be clean?"

Wang Hao did not give an accurate answer to this, but replied: "He has not read the exam paper." ”

Haven't seen it, it's enough.

So Lu Yu nodded, and finally clapped his head: "Then let's do it......" After a pause, Lu Yu's face couldn't help but flash a trace of sadness: "I just don't know, if the country is ruined by then, what is the meaning of your and my actions?"

Wang Hao turned his head to look in the direction of Weiguo Bishui Pass, and after a moment of silence, he muttered: "The country can be broken, but the clan cannot die!"

Wang Hao and Lu Yu's hard work, I don't know if it can be known by Emperor Canglan, presumably even if he learns, he will not shake his mind.

As Wang Hao said, Emperor Canglan has always been a proud and conceited person, so he is not afraid of being used by the demons.

Because even so, he has absolute confidence that after becoming holy, he will exterminate the remnants of the demon clan together!

For Canglan Huang, it doesn't matter what the process is, what matters is the result.

So even if he had learned the last essay question of the 10-nation joint entrance examination at this time, there was no hesitation in his eyes, and he firmly believed that he was right.

"Do you want to use this method to disturb my literary heart? In this way, the people in the Sanctuary today are all old and decrepit......

Emperor Canglan smiled faintly, he didn't care at all about this move played by the Holy Domain, for him, in this ten-nation joint examination, it was another matter, which was more worthy of his attention, or rather, it was a person.

The saint of the country, Su Wen.

"What a funny little guy!"

After that, Emperor Canglan walked out of his big tent, standing proudly in the wind and snow, admiring this beautiful world, and sighing secretly in his heart.

=================================

PS: Regarding the reason for the civil war of the Canglan Emperor, Ariki and a friend guessed it?In addition, why Ji Nantian is called Canglan Emperor and not Tianlan Emperor, this is a more interesting question......

In addition, I promised to write 15,000 words today, and so far four chapters have been released for a total of 12,000 words, and there is still one chapter left, so I will finish writing it in the early hours of the morning and send it again.

Thank you for your support!(To be continued......)
