Chapter 1054: Five Thousand Years of Darkness (Second Update!)
Sitting by the window were two Burning Blood Sect's Realm King powerhouses, and the two of them were complaining about the Xuanyang ore handed over to the Yuanling Sect this year.
Sun Wukong understood after listening for a while, the current Metaverse is dominated by the Yuanling Sect, and the suzerain of the Yuanling Sect, Mu Yin, is the king of the entire Metaverse, but this king is only for the Metaverse, in front of the divine envoys of the Firmament Immortal Palace in the higher dimension of the Han Hai Realm, Mu Yin is just an obedient dog.
Every year, the Firmament Immortal Palace will pass on the amount of Xuanyang ore that needs to be handed over by the Metaverse to the Yuanling Sect, and then the Yuanling Sect will assign it to the major sect forces in the four continents and one domain, which is the Xuanyang ore quota for it.
No matter what method the major forces of each sect and faction use, they must hand over the quota of Xuanyang ore within the specified time limit, otherwise they will be punished, their own cultivation resources will be confiscated, and they will also be used as coolies to give the Yuan Ling Sect alchemy refiners.
Therefore, the major forces have tried their best to make up enough of the Xuanyang ore that has been assigned, so as not to be punished and their vitality will be greatly damaged.
Originally, if it was just like this, everyone could still hold on, but in the past hundred years, the appetite of the Firmament Immortal Palace has become bigger and bigger, and the Xuanyang ore liquid distributed to the major forces has also become higher and higher, and some small and medium-sized sects have been unable to bear it and disbanded, and these shares have been added to other major sects.
Now, even the disciples of the big sects and big forces are a little unbearable, except for collecting Xuanyang ore everywhere, they don't have time to cultivate and improve their cultivation at all, if they continue like this, I'm afraid that their cultivation will either advance but retreat!
"If you can't stand it, why don't you resist?"
Sun Wukong frowned when he heard this, and couldn't help but ask, he used the technique of change to change his appearance, and these people didn't recognize him as the Monkey King of the year.
"Resist, who dares to resist, don't you want to die?"
The two who were negotiating smiled bitterly, "Since the dimensional gate was opened five thousand years ago, and the entire Metaverse became the object of enslavement of the Han Hai Realm, there has never been a success in the resistance! Those sect forces and scattered cultivation masters who disobeyed the rule of the Yuan Ling Sect were either ruthlessly killed by the divine envoys of the Firmament Immortal Palace, or died at the hands of those lackeys of the Yuan Ling Sect, and there was no exception at all!"
"Who said there are no exceptions? Isn't that the Monkey King an exception? He was the one who discovered the conspiracy of the Yuan Spirit Sect back then!"
Someone next to him put forward a different opinion, but it quickly became dull again, and his voice was lowered, "It's just a pity, the major sects didn't realize the seriousness of the situation at that time, and they all had the idea of continuing to wait and see, and they couldn't stop the bastards of the Yuan Spirit Sect from opening the dimensional gate at the first time, so that the entire Yuan Realm fell into darkness from then on!"
"Yes, it's been more than 5,000 years! It's been more than 5,000 years since the beginning of the Metaverse era, and in these 5,000 years, we have all lived in boundless darkness, and we can't see any hope at all.
The dull atmosphere once again enveloped the entire restaurant, and all the guests seemed to be infected by this atmosphere, sighing and drinking sullenly, without saying a word!
Sun Wukong frowned, he really didn't expect that the Metaverse would become like this now!
It's sad!
If the Heavenly Dao Sect, the Burning Blood Sect, and the Ten Thousand Ghost City had been able to raise the strength of the three sects to attack the Yuan Ling Sect at the first time, perhaps the Yuan Ling Sect would not have enough time to open the dimensional gate, and this 5,000-year dark history would not have appeared.
As for the destruction of the dimension, as long as one person can break through to the realm of the cave gods, all the calamities that descend from the Heavenly Dao can be eliminated, and the Metaverse can enter the next era peacefully.
It can be said that the hesitation of the Yuan Spirit Sect, the Burning Blood Sect, and the Ten Thousand Ghost City back then was the most fundamental reason for the current disaster!
Sighing, Sun Wukong stood up, he didn't have much appetite anymore.
The basic situation of the Metaverse Sun Wukong has heard from the conversation of everyone in the restaurant, it can be said that it is completely the Yuan Ling Sect is the dominant family, and all the other sect forces dare to be angry and dare not speak, for fear of causing trouble to themselves.
But the more this is the case, the firmament immortal palace is squeezing more and more ruthlessly, without considering whether the major forces in the Metaverse can withstand it, and constantly increasing the number of Xuanyang ore veins, the current Metaverse has long been full of complaints, but forced by the high-pressure rule of the Yuan Lingzong, can only complain and complain.
"I knew why I had to do it today!"
Leaving a sigh, Sun Wukong rose into the clouds and flew in the direction of the Fighting God Mountain, he didn't care about any of the sects in this Eastern Continent, the only one he cared about was the Fighting God Ape Clan.
When I let the Tianque Realm leave the Metaverse for refuge, I decided in a hurry, and I didn't have time to inform the Fighting God Ape Clan, and now that five thousand years have passed, I don't know what happened to the Fighting God Ape Clan?
After all, Sun Wukong still thought that he was a member of the Fighting God Ape Clan, and he felt more or less guilty in his heart, but in that situation at that time, he really didn't dare to let the Fighting God Ape Clan know about the existence of the Tianque Realm.
With this guilt, Sun Wukong flew all the way, and it took less than half a day to come to the periphery of the Fighting God Mountain.
"This, how did the Fighting God Mountain become like this?"
The Fighting God Mountain was originally surrounded by many enchantments and hidden in the small world space, but at this moment, standing in front of the mountain gate of the Fighting God Mountain, Sun Wukong found that all the enchantments no longer existed, and the entire Fighting God Mountain was completely exposed.
The Fighting God Ape Clansmen, who were supposed to cultivate in the Fighting God Mountain, were now all shuttling around from mountain range, digging out pieces of Xuanyang ore from the depths of the mountain range, and each clansman's face was full of numbness and fatigue, and they didn't have the kind of agile aura they had back then.
This, is this still the Fighting God Ape Clan?
"Brother Yuan Long!"
Suddenly, Sun Wukong's pupils shrank suddenly, and he saw a familiar figure flying out of the hole in the mountain range, jumping with a large piece of Xuanyang ore, who is Yuan Long, who is not the god general?
Yuan Long, the god general who was carrying the Xuanyang ore, heard Sun Wukong's shout, his body suddenly shook and stopped, turned his head to look in the direction where the voice came from, and his lips trembled slightly: "Brother Wukong, is it you?"
"Brother Yuan Long, it's my grandson, my grandson is back!"
Sun Wukong lifted the art of change, restored his original appearance, and flew to the side of the god general Yuan Long, looking at the once high-spirited god general Yuan Long turned into the appearance of today's old dragon clock, his heart ached, "Brother Yuan Long, why did you become like this?"
