"I used 20 years of my life force in exchange for a sentence of guidance for you. You must remember it." Tianji's body retreated slowly. At this moment, he seemed to have become the core of the world. Be it Ji Dong or Yao Qianshu, they both felt as if their bodies were restricted by an invisible force and could not move. Meanwhile, Tianji, who was retreating continuously, underwent a shocking change. His face, which looked like he was in his thirties, was aging at a speed visible to the naked eye. In the blink of an eye, he turned from a middle-aged man to an old man. Even his voice had aged.
"Chaos awakens in the Flaming Bar. God will bring endless sorrow and extreme pain. It is also the time to break out of the cocoon and be reborn. Illusion, reality, the soul struggles in the Flaming Bar, shattering in the Flaming Bar for eternal life. When the Flaming Bar reappears in the world, the will of the heavens will change. Emptiness, illusion, emptiness. You cannot see the endless future. I only hope that the ending is not a tragedy. Remember, remember."
As the old voice gradually faded away, Tianji also disappeared without a trace. The surrounding illusion twisted slightly, and Ji Dong and Yao Qianshu felt their bodies lighten, and everything returned to normal.
They were still on the bustling streets. The sun was shining brightly, and Tianji City was still bustling with noise. From time to time, they could still hear people discussing the fire in Shi Viscount's house.
"Are you really a dual-attribute Holy Disciple? Does that mean that you have the Ultimate Dual Fire? " Yao Qianshu's eyes were filled with disbelief. His indifference from when they first met had been replaced by an anxious look.
Tianji's words were like a brand that was deeply engraved in Ji Dong's mind. He could not forget it even if he wanted to. The aged voice reverberated in his mind. There was a hint of eeriness in it, but it was more like the miraculousness of the illusion.
If Tianji's words were only about what happened to Ji Dong, he would not care or laugh it off. However, in his words, there were four words: Flaming Bar. Flaming Bar. These two words could touch the depths of Ji Dong's soul.
The Chaos awakened in the Flaming Bar. This was the first sentence said by Tianji. After hearing this sentence, Ji Dong truly believed in Tianji's prediction ability. He was an atheist, but he couldn't imagine how Tianji knew that he had the embryonic form of the Chaos. Even Zhu Rong and Yin Zhaorong only knew that the Chaos had appeared in his body, but they didn't know the relationship between the Chaos and the Flaming Bar. Yao Qianshu must have thought that the Flaming Bar described the flame, but Ji Dong understood that the Flaming Bar mentioned by Tianji referred to the most important person in his life. There was only one person who knew that his embryonic form of the Chaos was condensed with the help of the Flaming Bar, and that was Ji Dong himself. It was a vague feeling. After the Flaming Bar merged that bit of Chaos into his body, he sensed the power of the Flaming Bar. Meanwhile, he faintly guessed that this closed-door cultivation of the Flaming Bar had a great relationship with the help of the Chaos condensed in the center of the Yin and Yang swirl. This could be said to be the deepest secret in his heart. Since Tianji could see through it with a single sentence, he couldn't think of a second possibility. Since the Flaming Bar didn't even tell him about it, how could it tell others about it?
From the second sentence that Tianji left behind, Ji Dong felt a sense of trepidation. Without a doubt, the second sentence and every sentence after that did not happen. 'God will bring endless sorrow', what did this mean? God will bring sorrow? Is there really a god in this world?
"Hey, get excited." Yao Qianshu saw that Ji Dong was ignoring him, and his eyes were still filled with confusion, so he couldn't help but call out to him.
With his thoughts interrupted, Ji Dong looked at Yao Qianshu for the first time. "Now I'm interested to hear more about the Heavenly Stem Saint." If it was related to himself, he could ignore it.
However, Tianji's words were related to the Flaming Bar, so he couldn't ignore it. If Tianji's instantaneous aging was not an illusion, but a prediction made by sacrificing his life force, then the meaning of the sentence that he left behind was worth pondering deeply.
When Yao Qianshu saw that Ji Dong no longer rejected him, he couldn't help but be overjoyed. "Then let's go somewhere else?"
Ji Dong nodded. He didn't need to worry about any trouble in Tianji City at all. Since he was the Saint King mentioned by Tianji, why would he send someone to catch him?
The two found another restaurant and sat down again in a private room. They ordered a few dishes. Yao Qianshu was still careful to isolate the sound in the room with his emerald First Wood magic.
"The existence of us ten Saints can be traced back to the time when the two continents were just formed. Since you have been in the Yin and Yang College, you naturally know about the current Holy Evil Battlefield and the Holy Evil Passage. I won't go into details, but do you know how the current Holy Evil Battlefield was formed? And the rules of the Holy Evil Battlefield and the Holy Evil Passage, and even in the strait between the two continents, why are there so many powerful demonic sea beasts? "
Ji Dong's eyes moved. After meeting Tianji, he couldn't help but be interested in the organization of Heavenly Stem Saints. Whether it was for the Flaming Bar or himself, he must understand everything about Heavenly Stem Saints in detail.
"You're not telling me that these are all related to the Ten Saints, are you?"
Yao Qianshu nodded solemnly and said, "That's right. As early as ten thousand years ago, our two continents were not connected. Although there were battles on each continent, overall, it was still stable. However, I don't know why, our two continents were actually getting closer to each other. When both sides could see each other from afar, contact began."
Ji Dong was surprised. "Continental plate drift?"
This time it was Yao Qianshu's turn to be surprised. "What is continental plate drift?"
Ji Dong said, "If in our world, the ocean occupies a large part of the area, then it can be understood that each continent is actually immersed in the ocean, always moving, but the speed of movement is extremely slow. The two continents met, probably because of the drift of each other. And then? Go on. "
Yao Qianshu said, "In the beginning, both sides were only in contact with each other. To their surprise, they found out that the other side was also a continent of five elements, but the five elements were different. They had the aura of light and darkness respectively. Light and darkness are opposites, far greater than fire and water, just like the sun and the moon can't appear at the same time. The repulsion of their attributes caused war. It's hard for you to imagine, but ten thousand years ago, because of the appearance of the two continents, the maritime industry was extremely developed, and the Holy War on behalf of their respective interests began. Every war was devastating, but both sides could only continue the war, unless one side was completely destroyed."
"However, the strength of the two continents was too close, and no one could completely destroy the other when they had the upper hand. For hundreds of years, the population of both continents plummeted, but the war that was like a meat grinder still continued. The reason why so many Demonic Sea Beasts appeared in the straits was because a large number of powerhouses' corpses had sunk into the sea at that time, and were devoured and nourished by ordinary sea beasts, forming the embryonic form of Demonic Sea Beasts."
"Seeing that both sides had suffered great losses and were about to perish together, the first generation of Heavenly Stems Saints came into being. Not only do Heavenly Stems Saints exist in the Five Elements Continent of Light, but there are also Heavenly Stems Saints in the Five Elements Continent of Darkness. When the Light and Darkness Saints grew up under the leadership of their respective Saint Kings, a battle between peerless powerhouses unfolded on the sea."
"You can imagine the final result. It was still a lose-lose situation. At the last moment, both sides regretted and understood that if it went on like this, the humans on both continents would probably be wiped out. So after careful discussion, the 20 Saints used their powerful magic to carry out an unprecedented transformation." "At that time, the Holy Kings of both sides were at the peak of the Earth Element.
"At that time, the Saint Kings of both sides were at the peak of the Earth Element. The two Saint Kings used the power of light and darkness to change the terrain between the two continents. Between the two continents, the Evil Island was born, and the passage to the Evil Saint Island was formed with their powerful magic power. When this was done, the six Saints of earth, metal, and fire were sacrificed because their magic power was exhausted. Metal gave birth to fire, and fire gave birth to earth. With the cooperation of the six Saints, they completed the connection and restriction of the two continents. After that, there were only the wood and water elements left. Therefore, the four Saints of wood from both sides turned themselves into a forest and formed the Evil Island, which is also the ancient forest on the battlefield of the Evil Saint. At the price of their powerful vitality, they summoned the powerful magical beasts of the two continents to guard it, and then sealed it, forming the current appearance of the Evil Island. The four Saints of water from both sides turned themselves into nutrients in the water, integrated into the strait, and completely helped the demonic sea beasts to grow. In the strait, hurricanes and tsunamis were formed, but they did not affect the two continents.
Ji Dong took a deep breath. Although he could not see the scene at that time, he could totally imagine the efforts made by the twenty Saints of both sides to stop the holy war between the two continents. With the power of 20 people, they changed the natural environment and formed such a huge island. How horrible was that? Was it really something that humans could do? If they were Gods, it would not be wrong. At the same time, he could not help but have some respect for the twenty Saints. In order to stop the war, they sacrificed their lives.
After saying this, Yao Qianshu seemed to be a little breathless. He paused for a while and then continued, "After the formation of the Evil Island, it became the only connection between the two continents. Before the formation of the Evil Island, the twenty Saints strongly restricted the countries of each continent not to build any navigation facilities. Otherwise, they would be cursed by the Saints. The second generation of Saints was born a few decades later. They had a new mission, which was to protect the passage to the Evil Saint, and to supervise the countries of each continent not to build navigation facilities. "
Ji Dong interrupted, "I don't understand. Since the first generation of Saints didn't want to let the war continue, why didn't they completely separate the two continents? Why did they still keep the two continents connected? "
Yao Qianshu said, "Regarding this point, generations of Holy Disciples have come to two conclusions after researching it. The first conclusion is that, as you said, the tectonic plates of the continents are drifting, and the two continents are still slowly approaching each other. Only through this method can the two continents be connected together so that they won't get too close to each other. The other conclusion is that both sides have selfish motives. They ultimately hope to defeat the other party and completely unify the two continents, which is why they left this passageway."
After listening to the first conclusion, Ji Dong had already agreed with Yao Qianshu's words. Indeed, if the two continents that were close to each other were supported, no matter how they moved, they would only move in the same direction and could not get close to each other. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but admire the first generation of Saints even more. What a huge project it was!
Yao Qianshu said, "From the birth of the second generation of Saints, the war between the two sides stopped. The magical beasts on the Holy Evil Island were too terrifying. Ordinary soldiers and even ordinary Devil Masters couldn't enter it easily. Relying on the huge Holy Evil Island, which is now called the Holy Evil Battlefield, the two sides were truly isolated. The war also stopped and the two continents were able to recuperate. However, the mission of the Saints on the Radiance Continent didn't end there. They began to work hard to restrain the countries of their respective continents. They destroyed all the documents about the war between the two continents one by one. At the same time, they issued a ban, blocked all the information, diluted the hatred, and with the passage of time, they forgot everything about the war between the two continents. Only by forgetting the hatred could they usher in true peace, which is what you see now. As for the establishment of the Heavenly Deity Academy, it was actually initiated by the Saints in the beginning. Later, it developed into a competition mechanism between the two continents. Only in this way could the two sides test each other's strength. In the hundreds of years after the establishment of the Heavenly Deity Academy, after the disappearance of the first generation of Saints, no more Saints appeared. Up to now, it has been more than five hundred years. We are the second generation of Saints. As for why we appeared, Tianji had already explained it very clearly. The Saints of Heavenly Deity came into being. In times of peace, they don't need us. I'm afraid that some upheaval is going to happen on the continent, and our duty is to find the cause of the crisis and solve it to ensure the continuation of peace."
Speaking up to here, Yao Qianshu sighed and said, "After not appearing for five hundred years, I'm afraid that the entire Radiance Continent has already forgotten about us. However, our responsibility is unprecedentedly great, no one wants to see people in misery and suffering. There is still more than a year before the Holy Evil Passage will open again. I think the crisis should have a lot to do with the Holy Evil Battlefield."
