Volume 1 Chapter 2 Heaven and Earth Tribulation
The Ethereal Spirit Realm has its own history that can be examined, with a history of nearly 100,000 years.
The earliest is the ancient period when Hongmeng first opened, and there is no record of specific historical events, and the world does not know what kind of situation it is. But looking through all the historical materials, there is a mention of the existence of the ancient flood period. At that time, there was no civilization that has been handed down, but from very early times, people have passed it on orally, and it is believed that there was an ancient period and that it is believed to be at least 30,000 years old. The reason why all this information was annihilated in the long river of history was the first Dao Tribulation in the Void Spirit Realm.
The real meaning that appears in various ancient books is actually the era that began about 60,000 years ago, known as the Three Emperors Era. It spans about 30,000 years across the three periods of the Taichu calendar, the Great Wilderness calendar, and the Heavenly Calendar. That is, between the first Dao Tribulation and the second Dao Tribulation.
During the period of the Three Emperors, it is said that the living space of the human race in the void spirit world was extremely bad at the beginning, and the human race was born weak in body and difficult to cultivate. At that time, the Terrans were struggling to survive under the slaughter of many other races.
It wasn't until the Holy Emperor, the first man in the history of the human race, was born that he led the human race to compete with other races. As the Holy Emperor's cultivation became stronger and stronger, the Terran monks became stronger and stronger, and they slowly occupied the dominant position in the Ethereal Spirit Realm, enslaving and preying on the other races of the Terran race and gradually trampling under their feet. It can be said that the birth of the Holy Emperor gave human beings room to multiply.
Ten thousand years later, the Holy Emperor fell in the siege of the top powerhouses of the various clans at that time. Originally, I thought that with the fall of the Holy Emperor, the human race would once again usher in a dark period of bleakness. But at that moment, the second peerless Tianjiao in the human race took over the banner in the hands of the Holy Emperor. The Human Emperor, in just a hundred years after the fall of the Holy Emperor, has grown from an ordinary monk with an unknown name to a powerful man who overwhelms all races. Under the leadership of the Human Emperor, the Terran monks once again gained a firm foothold in the Ethereal Spirit Realm and continued to maintain a strong voice in the world.
Two hundred years after the birth of the Human Emperor, the Demon Clan also appeared a great demon who cultivated to the heavens, and was honored as the Demon Emperor.
Legend has it that the Demon Emperor is a monkey who has cultivated to perfection, and by virtue of his extraordinary wisdom and long lifespan, he has also reached the same level of cultivation as the Human Emperor. In the countless battles between the Human Emperor and the Demon Emperor, although the Human Emperor has always been slightly superior, with the innate strong body of the Demon Clan, the Demon Emperor has always been able to remain invincible. With the more than 10,000-year-long conquest between the two emperors, except for the human race and the demon race, the other races in the ethereal spirit realm have gradually disappeared in the long river of history. Even if there are a few that survive, they are all hidden in the mountains and rivers, and they survive in secret. The Human Emperor was born with a gentle temperament, and unlike the Holy Emperor, who was determined to unify all the races, the Human Emperor did not exterminate all these races that survived the war. Instead, he put most of his energy into the confrontation with the Demon Emperor.
The Three Emperors period lasted for more than 30,000 years, until the Second Dao Tribulation of the Ethereal Spirit Realm came. An existence as strong as the Human Emperor and the Demon Emperor also disappeared in the Dao Tribulation. After the Great Tribulation, there were only 12 out of 10 remnants of the entire Ethereal Spirit Realm. The inheritance of the Three Emperors period was also mostly severed, and most of the ones that continued were incomplete. It's just that relying on the records on the broken ancient books, the later people have learned some things about the Three Emperors era in a scattered way. As for what the Dao Tribulation was, the survivors did not have enough cultivation, and they didn't know what to do at all. And those who have cultivated profoundly, but they are secretive and never want to mention it.
After the annihilation of the Three Emperors Era, it was the Five Emperors Period that spanned 30,000 years again. Until the third tribulation came, the era of the Five Emperors was also buried in the long river of history. After that, it was the era when Zhuo Yuming was born. Although there are more historical materials left over from the Five Emperors era, the world can still have a clearer understanding of some of the major things that happened during the Five Emperors. However, there is still no book to describe what the Dao Tribulation of the Five Emperors era was. I'm afraid that only the top few people in the entire Ethereal Spirit Realm really know the inside story. So far, even after three eras, Zhuo Yuming has no other understanding of the Heaven and Earth Dao Tribulation in the Void Spirit Realm, except for about once every 30,000 years, and almost causing the extinction of the living beings in the First Realm.
Zhuo Yuming suffered a thunderstorm, and he was originally killed by his body, but he was reborn in the early days of the Five Emperors era 30,000 years ago. In addition to reaching the peak of his cultivation, what he hopes most is to see for himself what this heaven and earth tribulation that comes every 30,000 years or so is.
After nearly three months in this small valley, Zhuo Yuming's cultivation barely recovered to the Jindan realm. However, under the catastrophe, although Xiu Wei fell directly from the peak of the Yuan Infant to the foundation building, and all the magic weapons and spiritual weapons were destroyed, the divine soul was not damaged in the slightest, so he still has the strength of the Yuan Ying realm.
After three months of paradise life, Zhuo Yuming also had the heart to leave. After all, this small valley is almost isolated from the rest of the world, and it does not receive any information from the outside world. Except for him and Lin Laohan, there are only mountains full of birds and beasts. Only by going out can we learn more about the current situation in the Void Spirit Realm and obtain more cultivation resources. Otherwise, just staying in this valley, without the support of any cultivation resources, even if it is another hundred years, I am afraid that it will be difficult for me to make an inch of progress in my own cultivation.
It was another evening, Zhuo Yuming finished his day's practice, and planned to go back to the hut to help Lin Laohan make a fire and cook. After walking into the courtyard, I waited for a long time, but there was no trace of Lin Laohan. Seeing that the sunset was about to be completely covered by the mountains, Zhuo Yuming had a faint premonition in his heart.
Got up from the wooden bench, pushed the door and walked into the hut. The room is still furnished as it is, with a wooden bed, a wooden table, and a bookshelf. There was nothing else.
When I got closer, there was a pale cyan jade pen on the wooden table, and a page of white paper was pressed underneath. Zhuo Yuming picked up the blank paper and shook it open, it turned out to be a letter left by Lin Laohan to himself.
Zhuo boy, meeting is fate. The old man has been with you for more than three months, and looking at your recent face, it should be decided. It happened that something happened at the old man's distant nephew's house, and the old man also had to go out to the mountains to visit. You and I will say goodbye to each other. This goes over the three mountains, is Xijian Town, you can go here to settle down first, and then find a plan. The jade pen left on the table is a small object given to you by the old man, and you have no long things at this time, which is just right for your needs. You kid don't need to worry, the old man never wants to part with people in person, so he takes the first step. Heaven and earth are far away, and he will see you again one day.
After reading the letter in his hand, Zhuo Yuming felt emotional. Since his rebirth, Lin Laohan first had the grace to save his life, and then took care of his friendship for three months, and he had already regarded Lin Laohan as an elder. This time, Lin Laohan knew that he was leaving, so he said goodbye without saying goodbye, leaving only a letter, so that he couldn't even say goodbye thanks. In the past three months, Zhuo Yuming has already realized that Lin Laohan is not an ordinary farmer at all, and the old man's cultivation must be farther than himself, because he has never felt Lin Laohan's cultivation realm. But Lin Laohan didn't say it, he didn't ask himself, after all, the other party never asked about the origin of his roots.
Zhuo Yuming put the jade pen on the table into his arms, turned around and walked out of the courtyard. Finally, he stood outside the gate of the courtyard and saluted, "Thank you for the life-saving grace of the seniors, the mountains are high and the road is far away, if he sees each other again in the future, the younger generations should repay the kindness of the seniors." ”
After turning around, facing the afterglow of the sunset, he walked towards the mountains and forests in the distance.
