"Fifteen thousand years ago, humans invaded!"
The Infernal Queen's eyes turned cold as a sneer suffused across her lips. She said coldly, "It was an invasion that had been premeditated for a long time. A mighty human army charged out of the Holy Tree's hollow and began slaughtering the three races the moment they arrived in the Transcendental World. Back then, the humans used so-called magic and battle aura. Their strength was extraordinary. Furthermore, their numbers were ridiculously high. Furthermore, they chose to invade in the middle of the night. By the time the three races reacted, they were already retreating in defeat. They were unable to put up a fight!"
Shi Xiaobai was surprised. He was accustomed to hearing stories of human invasions, but this was the first time he was hearing of humans premeditated invasions of other worlds. He was momentarily at a loss as to what to think.
The Infernal Queen's voice had a tinge of anger as she continued, "Even the Infernal King, Celestial King, and Transcendent King could not withstand the crushing of tens of thousands of mages and hundreds of thousands of battle aura knights. The three races' armies were routed and the people of the three races could only flee. However, the humans pursued relentlessly! Countless Infernals, Celestials, and Transcendents were burned to death by flames, frozen by frost, buried alive by rocks, struck by lightning, torn apart by hurricanes, and stabbed by the knights' spears. "The Celestial domain, Infernal domain, and Transcendence were instantly dyed in blood. Wails filled the land and it was a scene of desolation. The corpses of the three races were scattered everywhere. It was a scene of destruction! The tragedy that lasted for an entire day exceeded any war in Transcendence's fifteen thousand years of history. Humans slaughtered the natives of the Transcendental World like butchers slaughtering cows and sheep, or farmers harvesting rice. They were cold, heartless, and devoid of humanity! "
The Infernal Queen was harshly denouncing the brutality of the human invasion. In a war that did not result in an overwhelming victory, if the oppressor showed no mercy, then the tragic state of the oppressed was obvious. Shi Xiaobai was once an Earthling, but he was also Chinese. Therefore, he knew that China had experienced a period of overwhelming victories in its history. The Nanjing Massacre, which was still denouncing to this day, was a deformed result of such an overwhelming war.
Shi Xiaobai abhorred such inhumane wars but he was unsure if the 'history' the Infernal Queen mentioned was true. Furthermore, as a human, it was difficult for him to assume the role of a native of the Transcendental World. Hence, he calmly maintained his silence and did not express his views on the 'history' the Infernal Queen mentioned.
The Infernal Queen glanced at Shi Xiaobai as a look of surprise flashed in her eyes. However, she quickly regained her composure and said once again, "The massacre lasted for three full days. The survivors of the three races who managed to escape the massacre tried their best to escape, not daring to rest at all. This was because the human armies were still in hot pursuit." And only then did the three races realize that the three holy trees' locations were premeditated. The human armies that invaded from three different directions successfully formed a triangle. Following that, the three races were forced to flee towards the center of the triangle. And that was the old site of Transcendence where the Transcendence Holy Tree was! "
The three holy trees had human text engraved on them. They were respectively 'World', 'Time', and 'Fate'. As for the human armies, they had transmigrated from the holes in the holy trees. By relying on the three holy trees' locations, they surrounded the survivors of the three races and forced them to the old site of Transcendence. All of this did sound like a premeditated invasion.
But why did the humans do so?
Shi Xiaobai was puzzled but he was unable to determine if the history the Infernal Queen mentioned was true or false. Hence, he held back from asking.
The Infernal Queen fell silent for a moment as she glanced at Shi Xiaobai nonchalantly. A look of surprise flashed in her eyes but she quickly recovered her cold demeanor. She said in a deep voice, "The Transcendence Holy Tree had long withered when the three holy trees descended, turning into an abyssal black hole. There was no longer any Transcendence Holy Tree in the old site of Transcendence. There was only an abyssal black hole that was bigger than a lake. It was deep and dark, with no bottom to be seen. It was as though it led to the abyss of hell. The humans surrounded the survivors of the three races and forced them to the old site of Transcendence. Finally, they were forced to jump into the abyssal black hole. They did not accept surrender, captives, or pleas for mercy! The humans were inhumane and massacred every single member of the three races in the Transcendental World! "
When the Infernal Queen said that, she suddenly gritted her teeth as her eyes burned with anger. "Fifteen thousand years ago, the Transcendental World became the human world until today!"
Shi Xiaobai's heart skipped a beat. The final piece of information was too shocking. The present human world was actually the Transcendental World?
The humans had invaded and exterminated the three races before replacing them as the ruling race of the Transcendental World?
Shi Xiaobai fell silent for a moment. In fact, he had many doubts about the final part of the story but he was unable to determine if the Infernal Queen was telling the truth. After all, as a transmigrator, he did not even know the history of the human world. If he were to retort or question her, he would only be led by the nose by the Infernal Queen.
Shi Xiaobai hesitated for a long while but he did not express his opinion on the final part of the story. Instead, he sighed and asked, "Is the story over?"
The Infernal Queen looked at Shi Xiaobai in surprise and nodded gently. The cold expression on her face suddenly disappeared as it was replaced with a charming smile. The speed at which she changed her expression was peerless.
The Infernal Queen said with a chuckle, "Darling sure is strange."
Shi Xiaobai pricked up his eyebrows. "Strange?"
"That's right."
The Infernal Queen squinted her eyes and said with a smile, "Over the past ten thousand years, a total of four humans at the Psionic Mortal Realm have reached the eighth level, including Darling. Hence, this is the fourth time I'm telling this story. However, Darling's reaction is what puzzles me the most. I still remember that the first person was a brute. When he heard me mention the human invasion, he cursed loudly. His mouth was filled with obscenities, so I could not help but teach him a lesson. The second person was a scholarly person, but he was also a serious person. Every time this concubine spoke a little, that person would ask a lot of questions. This concubine had no choice but to answer them one by one. Before this concubine had even finished half of the story, this concubine's mouth was dry. "The third person was an ambitious person without any scheming thoughts. He spoke of his ambition to conquer the world without the slightest scruple. When he heard me talk about the human invasion, he began to use the fake history that the humans had fabricated to argue with me. He said that he wanted to conquer the human world and not some supernatural world." I argued with him, but I ended up wasting the longest amount of time … As for husband, husband, from the beginning to the end, he remained silent. He only said a few words in agreement. When he heard about the human invasion, he didn't say a single word. Could it be that husband doesn't have any doubts in his heart? Does Darling not have any doubts about what I said? Or does Darling have no doubts about the fabricated history of humans? Darling is too strange! "
Shi Xiaobai gaped but he was at a loss for words. He obviously had his doubts about the 'history' the Infernal Queen mentioned. However, he did not even know what the Infernal Queen meant by 'history fabricated by humans'. How was he to retort or question it?
As a transmigrator, a transmigrator who did not like to read books, Shi Xiaobai knew very little about the history of the human world he transmigrated to. The 'history' the Infernal Queen mentioned was even the first 'history' Shi Xiaobai knew about the human world.
The first three people the Infernal Queen mentioned were probably Overlord Ji Feng, Sword Immortal Xu Taibai, and the Conquest King. The three of them were famous figures in human history. They had an extremely high sense of identity with the human world. As natives of the human world, they were naturally familiar with history. They naturally could not help but use the 'human history' of 15,000 years ago to argue with the Infernal Queen.
However, Shi Xiaobai was different from them. He could not use Earth's history to argue with the Infernal Queen, right? Wouldn't that be like a chicken speaking to a duck?
Shi Xiaobai was too embarrassed to say that he had never studied the history of the human world. He could only say in all seriousness with a deadpan expression, "This King lives in the present!"
Living in the present and not living in the crotch of history. There was no need to care about history.
The Infernal Queen covered her mouth and said with a smile, "That saves me the trouble of wasting my breath."
Shi Xiaobai nodded and hurriedly changed the topic, "Since the story is over, can you tell This King what the choice of the eighth level's mission … is?"
When he said the word 'choice', Shi Xiaobai felt his scalp tingle.
The Infernal Queen smiled slightly and did not answer directly. Instead, she said, "Darling, have you ever wondered why this land of trials is called the Nine Revolutions Transcendental Tower?"
Shi Xiaobai was slightly taken aback. After a moment of silence, he probed, "Nine Revolutions Transcendental and Transcendental Nine Transformations sound rather similar. Furthermore, they contain the word 'Transcendental'. Could it be that the Nine Revolutions Transcendental Tower was built by the Transcendents?"
"Darling is indeed extremely smart."
The Infernal Queen praised, "The Nine Revolutions Transcendental Tower was built by the Transcendents more than three thousand years ago. However, due to the intermittent warfare, it was never completed."
Shi Xiaobai frowned slightly when he heard this. Although he did not know much about human history, Mu Yuesheng had once introduced the Nine Revolutions Transcendental Tower to everyone. He still had an impression of it. Shi Xiaobai asked curiously, "Isn't the Nine Revolutions Transcendental Tower a product of a civilization left behind by aliens that invaded the human world?"
