"The real Mount Olympus?" Yang Cheng was taken aback. What did she mean? Could it be that Mount Olympus was real or fake?
However, Yang Cheng knew that Yan Sanniang must have her reasons for asking this question. Thus, Yang Cheng's mind began to search for any other mountain with the same name other than Mount Olympus in Greece.
Yang Cheng had a map of the world in his mind, so he knew all the mountains in the world. However, he couldn't find a second Mount Olympus.
He asked, "Granny Yan, are you talking about a small mountain somewhere? How would I know?"
Yan Sanniang smiled playfully. She raised a finger and pointed to the sky.
Yang Chen raised his head and looked at the gray sky. He couldn't see the sun. "Sky? What do you mean? "
But the next moment, Yang Chen's mind jolted and he blurted out, "Are you talking about Mount Olympus on Mars?!"
"That's right," Yan Sanniang nodded and smiled.
Yang Chen opened his mouth and stood there dumbly. He didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Anyone who was familiar with astronomy would know that there was another mountain with the same name in the Solar System other than Mount Olympus on Earth.
Mount Olympus on Mars was the largest volcano in the Solar System to date.
It looked like a giant shield, its base area larger than the United Kingdom on Earth, and its height was three times that of Mount Everest!
"Granny Yan, don't tell me that the Gods of Mount Olympus actually came from Mount Olympus on Mars!" Yang Cheng shook his head and sighed, "If that's the case, wouldn't they be aliens?"
"Aliens?" Yan Sanniang nodded. "That's a good term, but the cultivators of Hua Xia are used to calling them mutants."
Yang Cheng looked at Yan Sanniang's calm expression and was speechless. After a long while, he said with difficulty, "Are they really from Mars? The Gods are Martians? "
Yang Cheng felt like he had entered a sci-fi movie. Why was everything so mysterious? But thinking about it, the things that had happened to him were even more mysterious than a sci-fi movie, so why would he care if the Gods were Martians!?
Yan Sanniang saw the strange expression on Yang Cheng's face and knew that it was difficult for Yang Cheng to accept it. She sighed and shook her head. Then, she slowly told him about the ancient history that she had learned from her master.
…
As early as tens of thousands of years ago, the most primitive human beings on Earth were still in a period where their spiritual wisdom had yet to develop. They were the so-called primitive people.
On the other hand, in Hua Xia's domain, there were some people who might have encountered some special opportunities and gained intelligence early on. Moreover, in the land that was full of danger, they comprehended the natural laws of the world and created a cultivation path that allowed them to become more and more powerful.
Perhaps it was due to the people of different places, or perhaps it was due to luck. Just like that, a small group of humans began to write the history of civilization in the land of Hua Xia.
To put it simply, these people were the legendary immortals and gods in the civilization of Hua Xia. There were many versions of the story, and the characters were different. But in the end, they were the same group of people.
The earliest ancestors of Hua Xia followed the Heavenly Dao and focused on cultivation. They did not interfere with the development of other primitive societies. To them, there must be a special reason for the arrangement of the heavens. As long as they worked hard to find the root of the Dao, they would naturally understand the meaning of their existence one day.
After a long period of time, after thousands of years, this group of people finally saw a strange change in the heavens and earth!
At that time, the atmosphere of Earth suddenly fell like a meteor shower. Countless colorful light spots fell from the sky. These light spots were scattered all over the world. Most of them fell on the Eurasian Plate, which had the most pleasant climate.
The ancestors of Hua Xia did not know what these light spots were. It was only after some light spots were found in the land of Hua Xia that the ancestors realized that these light spots were living beings who wore strange clothes and looked similar to the humans on Earth.
These people were extremely arrogant and seemed to look down on the primitive humans on Earth.
When the primitive humans saw these people descending from the sky, they immediately worshiped them as gods. In fact, they did not know what gods were. They only instinctively feared the Heavens, so they also feared the people who descended from the sky.
However, this group of extraterrestrial visitors was extremely disgusted with the primitive humans on Earth. After discovering that the primitive humans had extremely low intelligence, they seemed to feel that they were of no use to them. So, they began to wantonly slaughter everywhere. They would rather keep animals alive than to keep primitive humans alive!
After all, the reproduction ability of animals was stronger than that of humans. In their eyes, it was more worthwhile to keep animals as pets, while humans were inferior races that wasted food.
Seeing this group of extraterrestrial visitors in the land of Hua Xia slaughtering their own people, the ancestors of Hua Xia who had retreated from the world were finally enraged!
They had cultivated for more than a thousand years and were extraordinary figures who had mastered the power of Heaven and Earth. A group of accomplished cultivators, once they attacked, they slaughtered the originally arrogant alien races. In the end, they killed so many of them that they trembled with fear. Some died, some fled, and all of them rolled out of the land of Hua Xia!
The ancestors of Hua Xia also discovered that this group of alien races had some tricks up their sleeves. They could actually manipulate parallel spaces. Moreover, after their physical bodies were destroyed, they could use their divine senses to transfer to a kind of magical space orbit. If they were not mistaken, this should be a special ability that allowed them to gather their strength and be reborn again.
However, compared to this group of ancestors of Hua Xia, the abilities of these alien races were child's play. After all, the ancestors of Hua Xia had comprehended the Origin of Tao, while these alien races could only use the form of power between Heaven and Earth. There was a huge difference in power between them.
After discovering the cruel and evil acts of these alien races against the humans on Earth, the ancestors of Hua Xia believed that this was the intention of Heaven to give them early spiritual wisdom and that they should do their duty to protect the creatures on Earth.
As a result, the cultivators of Huaxia scattered all over the world and killed all the extraterrestrial visitors with the momentum of Heavenly Thunder!
In the end, the most powerful leaders of this group of alien visitors compromised in fear. They led the remaining members of their race and begged the ancestors of Hua Xia to spare their lives.
According to them, their own planet was actually the red planet that was close to Earth. However, it had been hit by a destructive celestial body and could no longer survive on it. Therefore, they had no choice but to use their own space transmission ability to come to Earth and migrate.
In fact, these people who arrived on Earth were already the most powerful group of people on Mars. Their ability to manipulate space was the most powerful, which was why they had the opportunity to travel all the way to Earth. Many of them could not hold on midway and were directly destroyed by the radiation in the universe.
Knowing that this group of people were also pitiful victims whose homes had been destroyed, the ancestors of Hua Xia felt that it was not right to kill them all. After all, that was too cruel and against the harmony of Heaven.
Therefore, the ancestors of Hua Xia warned this group of alien mutants not to harm humans anymore. They were not allowed to set foot on the land of Hua Xia, or their race would be destroyed!
Seeing that this group of mutants had a higher level of civilization, they left them in other parts of the world and asked them to help primitive humans around the world. Although they could not be considered as protectors, they were still to promote the evolution of civilization at critical times.
After the group of mutants agreed in fear, they obediently found a mountain in Europe and named it after the mountain in their hometown, Mount Olympus. Their remaining twelve strongest mutant leaders were the characters from the beginning of Western mythology.
As these mutants began to help humans reproduce, human intelligence gradually increased, and they began to worship them. Gradually, the term "God" came into being. Naturally, this was limited to those outside of Hua Xia. Within the territory of Hua Xia, those ancestors were the legendary celestial beings.
At first, this group of mutants felt that it was a gift from the heavens to have a place to live. After all, as long as they did not invade the territory of Hua Xia, the terrifying cultivators would not do anything to them.
However, gradually, this group of mutants discovered that on this planet, they did not know if there was a subtle environmental difference, but the success rate of their reproduction was shockingly low!
After a few decades, only a few offspring were born!
Slowly, the mutants continued to think of ways to give birth, but they could not give birth to more children. Moreover, most of them could not reproduce anymore.
They finally realized that their race was on the verge of extinction! It was impossible to return to Mars. Mars was uninhabitable. If they wanted to change to another planet, the nearest habitable planet from Earth was too far away!
Fortunately, they discovered that, in addition to manipulating parallel space, they had another special talent, "Reincarnation," which could be used on humans on Earth!
This discovery made them happy and worried at the same time. They were happy because among them, the stronger ones, especially those who were already ranked as "Gods," could use their extremely powerful mental strength, also known as divine sense, to continuously awaken from ordinary humans through "Reincarnation."
The worry was that this "Reincarnation" was not infinite. Among them, some of the weaker ones might not have enough mental strength to reincarnate after two or three times of Reincarnation.
What worried them even more was that this method of reincarnation was equivalent to killing ordinary humans.
This was because every time they reincarnated, when the gods awakened, the human's consciousness would be replaced. In other words, the original human would no longer exist, leaving behind only a shell.
In the end, the Gods of Mount Olympus chose to come to the territory of Hua Xia and begged the cultivators of Hua Xia to allow them to reincarnate without shame. They also promised that when they awakened, they would work harder to promote the development of human civilization on Earth.
The ancestors of Hua Xia saw that the primitive human civilization had made great progress in the past few decades and knew that what they said was true. After some consideration, they felt that the advantages outweighed the disadvantages. For most primitive people, these mutants were of great value.
Therefore, the ancestors of Hua Xia allowed this group of mutants to reincarnate on the continent outside of Hua Xia's territory. However, at the same time, in order to restrict this group of people from manipulating parallel space, the ancestors of Hua Xia had to abide by the "Treaty of the Gods."
After all, if this group of mutants reincarnated in human society and used the power of the laws of space to kill some of their opponents, it would really go against the balance of the world and would cause panic among humans on Earth.
Therefore, from then on, when the Gods fought with non-God humans, they were not allowed to "unseal", which was enforced by the Gods.
A small number of gods who broke the treaty were killed by the ancestors of Hua Xia. After that, no one dared to break this rule.
With the long passage of time and the vicissitudes of life, mankind gradually gained enough wisdom under the leadership of many astounding geniuses and entered the history of human civilization that flourished.
Of course, in order to commemorate the lost civilization on Mars, the mutants also left many traces in history. For example, the pyramids that were similar to their houses on Mars, and the original name of Mount Olympus on Mars … This also caused many relics in the world to seem like they were not built by ancient humans.
And these mutants gradually decreased generation after generation. After reincarnation, only the twelve Gods with absolute power were left to this day.
The legend of the gods gradually became a legend.
As for the ancestors of Huaxia who had been suppressing them, they had disappeared in the long river of history like a legend. However, the organization "Hongmeng" had been passed down since ancient times. Some cultivators who had reached the Connate Full Circle would join the organization after they had transcended the mortal world and lived in seclusion.
However, in order to continue the responsibility of protecting their homeland, there would be a "Hongmeng Ambassador" every five years to patrol the land of China. Firstly, it was to prevent Hua Xia from being destroyed. Secondly, as long as the twelve Gods were alive, they needed to keep them in check. This was to prevent the remaining twelve people from thinking that no one in the world could restrain them and have any ulterior motives.
…
Listening to Yan Sanniang's intermittent narration of this dusty history, Yang Cheng's heart went from shock to disbelief. Then, it gradually became clear and he understood. Finally, he had a rough idea of what was going on and could almost accept it.
No wonder the previous Pluto and the other Gods never mentioned this part of history. They were the most powerful people who came to Earth, but it could also be said that they were the most useless people in the past tens of thousands of years!
This was simply the history of the gods' humiliation!
They could only watch as their people declined generation by generation, but they could do nothing about it. Moreover, they were completely powerless to resist Hongmeng. They could only hide outside of Hua Xia's territory. They had to avoid Hua Xia no matter what they did, and they did not dare to simply fight.
Yang Chen more or less understood why these guys were living such ridiculous lives. Christen was considered to be a singer, Apollo and Diana were directly involved in making up stories, and Ares was like a madman looking for people to pick a fight with, looking for trouble for no reason at all.
Anyone who had lived for tens of thousands of years would have no desire to continue living as they watched their own kind gradually dwindle until there were only a few old farts left.
They had enjoyed everything they could and were tired of everything else. That was the feeling of living a life worse than death.
For example, Apollo and his sister seemed to be carefree all day, but how could Yang Cheng not see that they had no other thoughts in their hearts? That was why they had such a bad taste to provoke criticism from others.
The previous Pluto formed ZERO and killed countless people. However, killing people was probably not his main goal. He only wanted to train a successor among the killers so that he could be free.
Although the successor could no longer be a real Martian, at least he managed to gather the twelve spots of the Prime Gods. It could be considered a final explanation to the other eleven people who continued the history of this race.
However, if it wasn't for the help of God's Stone, Yang Chen wouldn't have had the opportunity to understand the manipulation of parallel space and the reincarnation technique. Speaking of which, why didn't Yan Sanniang mention anything about God's Stone?
Yang Cheng thought about it in confusion. He looked at Yan Sanniang who was immersed in her memories and said, "Granny Yan, I can accept the ancient history that you mentioned. However, I still have a question. Since the remaining twelve Prime Gods are already numb to reincarnation, why are they still fighting for God's Stone? I have a rough understanding of the use of God's Stone. According to Aphrodite and Apollo, Athena, Ares, and the rest had fought for God's Stone before. Could it be that God's Stone can resurrect their people? "
Yan Sanniang seemed to have expected this question from Yang Cheng. She said, "It's hard for me to answer this question. What I know is what I heard from Master. At the end of the day, I'm not from Hongmeng. God's Stone is a very special item in this world. The person who first discovered it is no longer aware of it. If it's that important, Hongmeng wouldn't have let it fall into the hands of the mutants. Unless Hongmeng doesn't know the true use of God's Stone, or Hongmeng doesn't think that it's a threat. "
"You're not from Hongmeng?" Yang Cheng was puzzled. "Granny Yan, didn't you say that I would have to join Hongmeng after I reached the Connate Full Cycle? With your cultivation, you should have already taken that step. "
Yan Sanniang smiled bitterly. "Young Master Chen, there's a reason for this. It's not convenient for me to talk about it now. I've said most of what I need to say. After saying so much, Sanniang only wanted Young Master Chen to know that apart from Hua Xia, no one would dare to provoke the power of a master deity. However, within Hua Xia's territory, it's best not to use it if possible. If not for the fact that the Hongmeng emissary isn't someone who would easily make a move, it's only a matter of time before we attract trouble. "
Yang Cheng naturally understood the crux of the matter, and believed that Sanniang was speaking the truth. As of now, he was definitely not Sanniang's match. According to Sanniang, after reaching the Connate Full Cycle, even if a master deity used the Reincarnation Technique, he would still be destroyed by someone of that level. If he really attracted Hua Xia's attention, wouldn't his life be in danger?
Although he wasn't afraid of death, he was still young and had so many women. How could he bear to die so easily?!
But after living for more than twenty years, when had he ever felt so pressured? He wanted to kill, but he was afraid of provoking others. It was truly suffocating. Yang Cheng was irritated. He wanted to ask Sanniang if there was any limit to how far Hongmeng could go, so that he could do something within their tolerance. However, he suddenly froze!
Why did he have to avoid them? At the end of the day, Hongmeng was still a human, and so was he. Didn't they just surpass the Connate Full Cycle?! Why couldn't he surpass it?!
Not to mention surpassing the Connate Full Cycle, if the Hongmeng people bullied him with their numbers, he would just be stronger than all of them! He didn't believe that the people of Hongmeng were the highest level!
Since young, I, Yang Cheng, have lived in a world where the strong preyed on the weak. When have I, Yang Cheng, ever been afraid of anyone?! Why am I cowering and thinking of hiding this time?!
When he thought of this, Yang Cheng's eyes lit up. He looked at Sanniang's skinny and aged body with a sneaky glint in his eyes. He chuckled, "Grandma Yan, I have something I'd like to ask …"
