"The ancient human powerhouses were able to establish the Heavenly Court and rule over the 10,000 races. What kind of calamity could cause the Heavenly Court to be destroyed and the 10,000 races to be wiped out?"
Marquis Bei Yun asked the question in his heart.
According to the voice, the ancient human race should have been very strong, at least much stronger than now.
After all, the ancient human race could suppress the 10,000 races.
But now, the human race couldn't even subdue a single demon. The gap between them was simply too great.
In his mind.
The voice sounded in a low voice, "You should know the reason why the Heavenly Court collapsed."
"You mean the Demon Abyss!"
Marquis Bei Yun was not a stupid person. Since the other party had made it so obvious, he had guessed the result in an instant.
However, this result …
He did not expect it.
"That's right, it's the Demon Abyss." At the mention of the Demon Abyss, the voice had a hint of killing intent.
"This world has existed for a very, very long time, so long that no one can even find the source of this world. Since the birth of this world, it has been constantly expanding outwards. After a long time, this world gave birth to all living beings.
Among these living beings, there were not only the human race and the demon race, but also other races.
Some races were gifted, and some races were born with divine power. That era could be said to be the most glorious time of this world. "
The voice seemed to be reminiscing and reminiscing.
However, in the end, the voice became angry again.
"However, at that time, the world grew to an extremely vast extent and finally connected with the Demon Abyss!"
"The Demon Abyss gave birth to thousands of evil demons, and each of them was at least in the Celestial Realm. Above the evil demons were Demon Gods, and each Demon God was at least in the seventh level of the Celestial Realm.
In addition, the evil demons were immortal. Every time they died, they would be reborn in the Demon Abyss.
At that time, the Heavenly Court was at its peak, and there were many Celestial Realm powerhouses. Even so, in the face of the endless evil demons, the Heavenly Court was defeated in the end. "
"Although there were some supreme treasures in ancient times that could really kill the evil demons, there were too few of them. Moreover, after the evil demons discovered these supreme treasures, some Demon Gods also took action to snatch and destroy them.
In the end, the only one left is Zu Bing of the Myriad Races. "
"It's just that Zu Bing isn't easy to raise. Even among the ten thousand races, there aren't many who have Zu Bing. How could they fight against the Evil Demons?"
The Marquis of Northern Cloud remained silent as he listened to what the voice was saying.
There were some secrets.
It wasn't something that one could know just because they were in a high position.
Many things had been buried in the river of time after countless years.
It was very difficult to find out the truth.
"The Heavenly Court has been defeated. The Demonic Abyss has successfully invaded this world. Although the Myriad Races are powerful, even the Heavenly Court has been defeated. How can those Myriad Races that are inferior to the Heavenly Court resist the Demonic Abyss?
That was the darkest period of time. "
"At that time, the Emperor Of Heaven of the Heavenly Court was also the strongest person in the human race. After discovering that the ten thousand races could not resist the Demonic Abyss, he used the fate of the ten thousand races as the foundation and finally slashed out!"
"This slash caused more than half of the world to return to ruins. It also cut off the connection between the Demonic Abyss and the world."
"However, it was also this slash that caused the ten thousand races to suffer heavy losses. Along with the return of the world, it caused the deaths of hundreds of millions of living beings. Some races grafted their anger towards the Emperor Of Heaven onto the entire human race.
There were also some races that approved of the Emperor Of Heaven's actions.
But no matter what, after this slash, the Heavenly Court completely collapsed. All the top powerhouses either died during the invasion of the Demonic Abyss or accompanied the world to ruins when the Heavenly Court collapsed.
Until now, there aren't many traces of the Heavenly Court left in the world. "
After hearing the other party's words, Marquis Beiyun remained silent.
With one slash, the world returned to ruins and all living beings were destroyed.
Although he didn't agree with the Emperor Of Heaven's actions, he could feel the other party's helplessness.
The Demonic Abyss invaded.
The ten thousand races were defeated.
If they didn't cut off the connection with the Demonic Abyss, the entire world would become a demonic land.
At that time, all the ten thousand races would die.
However, shattering the world and cutting off the connection with the Demonic Abyss could save a portion of living beings.
Such a method was no different from a warrior cutting off his wrist.
However, not everyone could make such a choice.
"Back then, the great calamity of the Demonic Abyss caused the Heavenly Court to collapse and the ten thousand races to return to ruins. Now, the world has been reborn. The strength of this world is much weaker than that of the human race back then.
Not to mention compared to the entire ten thousand races. "
"Now, the second great calamity of the Demonic Abyss is not far away. The possibility of you being able to resist the evil demons is very slim. If you want to cut off the connection between the world and the Demonic Abyss, the current cultivators might not be able to do it."
"I still say the same thing. The Ultimate Heavenly Connection and letting the world enter the Age of Dharma is the only hope of survival."
"You might still be able to make it now. With my help, coupled with your almighty realm, there aren't many people who can contend against you."
The Ultimate Heavenly Connection!
Severing the foundation of the world's cultivation and letting the world enter the Age of Dharma.
Marquis Beiyun took a deep breath and finally shook his head, "Why didn't the Heavenly Court cut off the world's cultivation back then? I'm afraid they also wanted to leave a hope!"
As long as they continued to cultivate.
There would be a day when they could contend against the Demonic Abyss.
In his opinion, the Heavenly Court would rather destroy the world and cut off the connection with the Demonic Abyss than cut off the path of cultivation. There was probably a glimmer of hope in their hearts.
Hearing this.
The voice was silent for a moment. After a while, it replied, "Perhaps the Heavenly Court's approach back then was a mistake. Now, even if the humans and demons join forces, there's no hope of resisting the Demonic Abyss."
"We'll talk about the future in the future." Marquis Beiyun changed the topic and asked, "There should be a realm above the Celestial Being, right?"
"Yes, the Emperor Of Heaven back then was a powerhouse who surpassed the Celestial Being realm."
The voice replied accurately, "It's just that it's not easy to break through the threshold of the Celestial Being realm. The Human Emperor of the Human Race hasn't taken this step yet."
"The Emperor Of Heaven can't stop the Demonic Abyss. Then, if someone is stronger than the Emperor Of Heaven, can they stop the Demonic Abyss?"
"I've never met someone who can be stronger than the Emperor Of Heaven. The realm that the Emperor Of Heaven is at is the true peak of the myriad races."
"The so-called peak is only because no one has truly touched on the higher level. You have to know that there's no end. Perhaps it's not impossible to go further." Marquis Beiyun shook his head, not agreeing with the voice's words.
"There's no end to the Dao — you're the first person who dares to say so."
The voice seemed to have thought of something. In the end, it only said one sentence before completely falling silent.
"I look forward to the day when you can break through the peak of the Emperor Of Heaven."
Break through the peak of the Emperor Of Heaven!
Ascend to the throne and sit on the destiny of the Human Race!
Marquis Beiyun's expression was inexplicable. He muttered to himself, "Let's wait a little longer. It's still too early!"
Subsequently.
He took out a letter with the seal of the South Wind Manor on it.
This was a letter from the alliance. They hoped that the North Cloud Manor could take action together and completely destroy the Great Zhao Empire.
Without seeing Marquis Beiyun do anything, the letter directly turned into ashes.
— —
Ever since Zhang Yi completely took over the South Wind Manor and Wu An Manor officially rebelled, the various battles started again.
The Marquises of the Five Mansions formed an alliance.
Tens of millions of troops attacked the Imperial Court together.
Facing such an attack.
The Imperial Court had to treat it seriously.
There were almost no clashes. The Imperial Court directly gave up the Five Mansions and then gathered strength. With the Middle State Manor as the foundation, they directly faced the Five Mansions Alliance.
The battle situation changed in an instant.
The Middle State Manor, which was supposed to be the center of the world, suddenly became the place to face the rebel army.
On the same day.
Xi Yang finally couldn't withstand the pressure. He gathered the Marquises of the other mansions to send troops to help the Emperor and resist the rebel army together.
The Great Zhao's situation collapsed quickly.
It completely exceeded everyone's expectations.
As early as when the Human Emperor was alive, there were already rebellions. There were even cases of Marquises establishing their own countries.
However, these things were unable to shake the foundation of the Great Zhao.
Even if Marquis Qianshan, Gu Changqing, rebelled, the situation was still under the control of the Great Zhao Empire.
However, ever since the Human Emperor fell.
In just one or two years, the Great Zhao completely lost control of the world. The Marquises all rebelled, causing the situation to collapse to an irreversible point.
Boom!!
Qin Shujian's seal fell and suppressed an evil spirit.
In an instant, the void buzzed.
Then the array fell. The Red Lotus Of Purgation ignited and completely swallowed the evil spirit.
After he absorbed the red lotus, his life force finally broke through the 700 million mark.
After his life force broke through the 700 million mark.
The Guiyuan Ancestral Canon once again had a plus sign that could be upgraded.
For Qin Shujian now, as long as he had enough life force, he would immediately convert it into strength.
So.
After using up the 700 million life force, the Guiyuan Ancestral Canon was officially upgraded to the fifth level of the Divine Martial Arts.
At the same time, his strength was further enhanced.
Guiyuan Ancestral Canon 35 (High Divine Level): Level Five Ancient Immortal Body, Level Five Impenetrable, Level Five Red Lotus Of Purgation
These were Qin Shujian's current attributes.
In addition to that.
His luck points had finally reached 1,300 points.
This meant that 13 evil spirits had already fallen in his hands.
And with the successive breakthroughs in his realm and the absorption of many red lotuses, his Spiritual God had officially reached 320 meters from its original height of more than 200 meters.
320 meters of Spiritual God!
This had already exceeded the range of the ordinary peak of the Divine Martial Realm.
A cultivator at the peak of the Divine Martial Realm would have a Spiritual God of 300 meters.
Only those great cultivators at the half-step Celestial Being level could break through this limit and reach another level.
In other words.
Without relying on array techniques, Qin Shujian was already not weaker than a half-step Celestial Being level one expert.
But in terms of true strength, even without using array techniques, he was still stronger than a half-step Celestial Being.
"Back then, the envoy of The Black Abyss was also a half-step Celestial Being, but his overall strength was definitely inferior to mine now."
"The fifth level of the Divine Martial Realm is comparable to a half-step Celestial Being."
"If I continue to improve like this, maybe I don't need to break through to the Celestial Being Realm to have the combat strength comparable to a Celestial Being!"
Qin Shujian thought to himself.
This was a very important transformation.
At that time, with the help of array techniques, he would have the confidence to fight against experts at the Demon King level.
However …
These were only his guesses. Everything had to really reach that point before he could be completely sure.
During this period of time, although Qin Shujian had been killing demons, the Sky Origin Sect had sent him messages almost every day.
The content of the messages was naturally the current situation of the world and the changes in the situation.
"The Marquis of Beiyun of the Five Provincial Alliance hasn't made a move yet, but it's about time to take sides!"
"In this case, the Great Zhao Empire shouldn't be able to hold on for too long. The decisive battle between the two sides will only be tomorrow. At that time, either the Great Zhao Empire will defeat the rebel army and reshuffle the cards in the world, or the rebels will win and the Great Zhao Empire, which has existed for thousands of years, will be completely destroyed.
But no matter what, it's time to reshuffle the cards in the world. "
As this time approached, Qin Shujian became more and more anxious.
It was really time to reshuffle the cards.
The entire world would be affected.
If the Sky Origin Sect wanted to stabilize the situation, it would naturally be better if he was stronger.
In particular, the Demon Clan was unwilling to just watch the show and wanted to get involved. This made him understand how tense the situation was.
"The fifth-stage Divine Martial Realm is not enough!"
"Even if I'm at the peak Divine Martial Realm, I'm still lacking."
"I have to break through to the Heaven Being Realm and not just become an early-stage Heaven Being. Only then will I be able to protect myself from the surging waves and not completely capsize."
When he thought of this …
Qin Shujian immediately left his original spot and rushed to the next place.
Now that he was killing more and more demons, he was getting more and more comfortable killing them.
In the True Dominion …
Condensing four Universal Sky Locks was a symbol of invincibility.
No matter what kind of demon it was, they were no match for him.
Especially with the help of the array formation, these demons had no chance of escaping even if they wanted to.
In the short span of slightly more than a month …
Qin Shujian didn't just travel to Level Chuan Prefecture. He also traveled to Fallen Moon Prefecture, White Yong Prefecture, and other prefectures.
To him …
It didn't matter which prefecture it was.
What mattered was which place the demons were closest to him.
In order to save time, Qin Shujian no longer targeted the prefectures one by one.
Instead, he went to wherever he was closest to.
This way …
He would be able to avoid taking unnecessary detours.
After all, while he was killing demons, other people were also hunting demons. If he didn't happen to encounter them, he might end up empty-handed.
In this case …
This wasn't the first time Qin Shujian had encountered such a situation.
He had encountered empty-handed situations no less than three to five times.
Of course, when it came to kill-stealing, no one else had been able to do so except for Dan Hao, who had made him experience the evils of the human world.
In the span of slightly more than a month …
Qin Shujian had also gained a lot. His luck points had broken through the 5,000 mark. As for the Origin Returning Ancestral Canon, it had successfully reached the eighth level.
The eighth level of the Origin Returning Ancestral Canon.
This also meant that his cultivation level had officially reached the eighth level of the Divine Martial Realm. He could be considered to have entered the late-stage Divine Martial Realm.
He was only two levels away from the peak Divine Martial Realm.
However …
After breaking through to the eighth level of the Divine Martial Realm, Qin Shujian found that his original calculation was also wrong.
He originally thought that after reaching the peak of the Divine Martial Realm, he would need about 10 billion life sources.
But when he broke through to the eighth level, he had already consumed 2 billion.
Combined with the consumption of the previous breakthrough, the consumption of life sources had already broken through the 5 billion mark. And judging from the past progress, the last two levels of life sources were often unrealistic.
In this case …
If he wanted to reach the peak of the Divine Martial Realm, he would need to consume at least 15 billion.
Combined with the previous consumption …
A Divine Martial Realm would consume at least 20 billion life sources.
"Hiss, 20 billion life sources, this doesn't include the consumption of the Divine Martial Realm to break through to the Diviner Realm. If it is included, I'm afraid it will add another 20 to 30 billion."
If he didn't count, he wouldn't know. But when he did, even Qin Shujian himself was shocked.
Judging from the life sources that Yuan Zong provided every day, if the original foundation was maintained, it would take more than 30 years, a total of more than 10,000 days.
More than 30 years to reach the Diviner Realm.
This time was actually not very long.
All the cultivators in the world who had reached the Diviner Realm had all gone through hundreds of years of hard work.
But looking at the current situation …
Whether it was the Human Race or the Demon Race, it was impossible for them to develop steadily for 30 years.
Not to mention 30 years.
Qin Shujian suspected that the current situation could not even last for three months.
"Fortunately, the Red Lotus Of Purgation can directly kill evil spirits after leveling up. Otherwise, even if we don't have to wait 30 years, this time would not be shortened by much."
"However …"
"If the Red Lotus Of Purgation can kill evil spirits, then can it also kill players?"
Evil spirits were immortal and indestructible.
Players were also immortal and indestructible.
Comparing the two, there was a great similarity.
Such a situation did not allow him to not think about this question.
But …
Although this idea appeared, Qin Shujian did not have time to test it.
Because players could be resurrected after death, but the location of their resurrection was not fixed.
Unless he found the location of a player's resurrection and then waited there after killing the player, it would be impossible to distinguish.
But this matter …
Was not the most important thing now.
After this matter was over, Qin Shujian had already planned to try it himself.
If the Red Lotus Of Purgation could really kill players …
Then the greatest threat in history could be completely eradicated.
Players would die!
Then, the players' greatest advantage would be gone in front of him.
By then, he would not be afraid no matter how many players there were.
Wu 'an Prefecture.
Wu 'an Marquis Prefecture.
Shen Hong sat in the main seat, as for the other Marquises on his left and right.
Marquis Qianshan Gu Changqing.
Marquis Bai Yong Zhao Xinghuai.
Marquis Luo Yue Du Chengwu.
Marquis Nan Feng Zhang Yi.
Other than the five of them, there was no one else in the hall, not even a guard at the door.
"Marquis Bei Yun's side is still unwilling to join forces with us?" Shen Hong tilted his head and asked Zhang Yi.
As soon as he finished speaking.
Zhang Yi shook his head and sneered. "The Xiao Family thinks highly of themselves, I thought Xiao Chengfeng was quite ambitious, but I didn't expect him to be so foolishly loyal.
But it doesn't matter if there is one more Marquis Bei Yun or one less.
Now that the Great Zhao Dynasty has suffered heavy losses, we are enough to deal with it. "
He was the person in charge of contacting the Beiyun Prefecture.
For more than a month.
He had already sent messages to Marquis Bei Yun no less than five or six times, but he did not even reply once.
Not to mention replying to the letter, he didn't even show the slightest bit of movement. He stood erect as if he didn't see anything.
As a Marquis, Zhang Yi was also a proud person.
Marquis Bei Yun did not give him face, so naturally, he was not in a good mood.
Du Chengwu sneered. "If Xiao Chengfeng is foolishly loyal, then so be it. I'm afraid that Marquis Bei Yun has a bigger plan and wants to take advantage of us. We have to be careful."
"Hmph, how dare he!"
Zhang Yi's face turned cold. He said coldly, "Beiyun Prefecture's foundation is the weakest among the thirteen prefectures. Xiao Chengfeng may be a powerful figure, but he is not invincible.
If he wants to scheme against us alone, he's just digging his own grave. "
So what if he was a powerful figure!
Among the people present, who didn't have the means to deal with mighty figures?
To be able to control a prefecture, he was naturally not a simple character.
But even so, Zhang Yi was still very cautious about Marquis Bei Yun.
No matter what.
Marquis Bei Yun was one step ahead of them and had broken through to another level.
Powerful or not.
The difference was still huge.
Shen Hong said, "Since Marquis Bei Yun did not respond, we will ignore him for now. Our biggest opponent now is the Great Zhao Dynasty. Although the Human Emperor has fallen, the foundation of thousands of years is still there.
There are many powerful figures in the royal family and many in the Imperial Astronomer.
Marquis Qianshan should know this very well! "
As he spoke, his gaze fell on Gu Changqing.
Not long ago, a great battle had broken out in the Thousand Mountains Prefecture. The Lord of the South had joined forces with the powerful figures from the Imperial Astronomer. It could be said that the battle had been earth-shattering.
Gu Changqing had found a mysterious powerful figure from somewhere. Then, with their support, they had defeated the Lord of the South and the Imperial Astronomer. They had completely expelled the power of the imperial court from the Thousand Mountains Prefecture.
As for the mysterious powerful figure, he did not want to talk much about it.
But when Shen Hong thought about the recent rumors, he had some guesses in his heart.
But these things.
It was not the time to talk about it, so he turned a blind eye.
It was so much so that the other people present also had their own opinions and thoughts regarding this matter.
As for Shen Hong's words.
Gu Changqing looked calm and did not feel any sense of urgency. He replied calmly, "You have seen the strength of the Imperial Astronomer with your own eyes. I don't need to repeat myself.
The Human Emperor's fall was too sudden, and the royal family was not prepared. Now is our best chance. "
Speaking of this.
He paused for a moment and looked at the others with a mocking expression. "Don't tell me that you have not thought about the throne."
"Anyway, things have already come to this point. There is no need to think so much. Let's take down the Middle State Prefecture in one go. The rest can be discussed in the future."
Gu Changqing's words echoed in the hall.
Shen Hong and the others did not feel embarrassed because their thoughts had been exposed. Everyone looked normal.
After all, everyone was well aware of why they were determined to rebel.
At this time, trying to cover up would only make it more conspicuous. It was completely unnecessary.
Zhao Xinghuai, who had been silent, said, "We have already set up a spy in the Great Zhao Dynasty. When the time comes, it will naturally create an opportunity for us. Xi Yang's methods are not bad, but they are still too weak.
After thousands of years as a prince, he can no longer distinguish the big picture.
If the Great Zhao falls into his hands, it will be destroyed sooner or later. "
