Ji Moqing looked at Honn Shinsakura and Zhou Wen in shock, almost unable to believe her eyes.
Wu Zonglie and company were dumbfounded, completely petrified on the spot.
After Honn Shinsakura bowed, he stood up with his sword in hand and said, "My master has repeatedly reminded me that if I can see you again, I have to bow as a disciple. I have to bow as a disciple. "
"It's rare that you still remember me." Zhou Wen nodded slightly.
When Ji Moqing heard their conversation, she felt as though she had been struck by lightning. She immediately understood everything and couldn't help but retreat.
She had already realized that Zhou Wen wasn't someone sent by her brother-in-law. It was even very likely that he was a famous overseas devil. Otherwise, why would a person like Honn Shinsakura bow so respectfully to him? He even said that the Sword Sage had instructed him to bow as a disciple.
A person that even Sword Sage Sei Gasakai thought highly of was definitely not as simple as he looked. Under that young appearance, it was very likely that he was an old monster who was eternally young.
After figuring everything out, Ji Moqing retreated, hoping to escape immediately.
Zhou Wen didn't chase after her. Zhou Wen didn't say a word, and Honn Shinsakura didn't get anyone to chase after her. Ji Moqing summoned the turtle Companion Beast and quickly left the island.
"Sir, should we bring her back?" Honn Shinsakura asked Zhou Wen.
"Why are you capturing her?" Zhou Wen asked.
Honn Shinsakura recounted the entire story. It involved a lot of information that Zhou Wen was eager to know. Furthermore, many things were very different from what Zhou Wen had imagined.
It had only been about five years since his battle with Di Tian. It was far from the hundred plus years that Zhou Wen had counted.
However, Zhou Wen was certain that he had been trapped for more than a hundred years. After all, it wasn't easy to endure such a long period of imprisonment.
If it wasn't for Zhou Wen's firm conviction, an ordinary person would probably suffer from mental problems even if they didn't starve to death.
Although Zhou Wen's mind wasn't problematic, he had spent a lot of time practicing various Essence Energy Arts over the past hundred years. The results he obtained wouldn't lie. They were real benefits that he had obtained. Furthermore, they were the results of the accumulation of time. It couldn't be faked.
Since it was true that Zhou Wen had been imprisoned for a hundred years, and it was also true that only five years had passed in reality, there was only one possibility. Wang Mingyuan had used some power to change time to achieve such an effect.
Furthermore, Zhou Wen hadn't starved to death in the past five years. This was problematic in itself.
Although exchanging five years for a hundred years' worth of achievements seemed like a great deal, the loneliness of being imprisoned for a hundred years was almost maddening.
Even if Zhou Wen could focus on studying the Primordial Energy Art and try his best not to think too much, he still nearly had a mental breakdown several times.
Zhou Wen didn't know if he should thank Wang Mingyuan or beat him up to vent his anger.
In the past five years, Earth had undergone a huge change. It was different from what Zhou Wen had imagined. The Guardians had failed to occupy Earth, much less become its master.
Of course, the current master of Earth was not human. In fact, the human situation was even worse than five years ago.
Earth was still constantly mutating. As more and more dimensional zones broke through, the space humans could survive in became smaller and smaller.
Now, the living environment of humans was the exact opposite of before. In the past, as long as humans didn't enter dimensional zones, they wouldn't be in danger. There were only a few dimensional creatures that broke through.
However, it was completely different now. If humans didn't enter dimensional zones, the chances of them surviving would be much lower.
Earth was filled with dimensional creatures that had broken through. There was no lack of Mythical or even Terror-grade existences. Even Calamity-grade dimensional creatures would occasionally appear.
Humans could only enter dimensional zones and use the dimensional zones' exclusivity to resist dimensional creatures that broke out of other dimensional zones. Only then could they struggle at death's door.
Dimensional zones that humans had previously regarded as forbidden zones of death had now become the last refuge for humans.
Of course, the dangers in dimensional zones still existed, but as long as one was familiar with them, they could effectively avoid them. Many humans had already established human factions in various dimensional zones.
In such a harsh environment, the Federation surprisingly didn't completely perish. However, the current Federation was different from before. It was no longer an era where the six families controlled everything.
Up to now, no pure-blooded human had relied on their own strength to break through to the Mythical stage.
Now, the common way to advance to the Mythical stage was to contract a Guardian. Absorbing and fusing with a Guardian was still a very rare advancement method. This was because this advancement method had high requirements for humans. Not everyone had the ability to fuse with a Guardian.
However, apart from that, another more mature advancement method appeared two years ago. It was to extract energy from the bodies of dimensional creatures and use it to strengthen a human's body to achieve the goal of advancing to the Mythical stage.
However, there were many problems with this method. For example, a Mythical creature could only be used to create one Mythical Fluid. One Mythical Fluid could only be provided to one person. As for whether this person could advance to the Mythical stage with the help of the Mythical Fluid, it was affected by many factors. The overall success rate was only a few percent. Furthermore, if one failed, there would be many side effects or even death.
Even if one succeeded, that person's Life Providence, Life Soul, and Wheel of Destiny would be affected by the Mythical creature.
In other words, the strength of the Mythical creature used to create the Mythical Fluid determined the strength of the person after advancing to the Mythical stage. It might even affect the possibility of advancing further in the future.
Furthermore, just like fusing with a Guardian, the genes of humans would mutate. Their appearances would be different from normal humans. Some people would even completely transform.
As for whether there would be any other latent dangers in the future, it was unknown.
However, up to now, most of the Mythical experts among humans had used this method to advance. A large portion of the current Federation system relied on the Mythical Fluid. And the faction that controlled the Mythical Fluid was currently the one in charge of the Senate.
When Zhou Wen heard the name of the creator of the Mythical Fluid, his expression couldn't help but turn odd.
Hui Haifeng … Federation President … Zhou Wen muttered the name silently. To him, this was a memory from a hundred years ago, so he found it somewhat unfamiliar. Furthermore, the combination of the two words deepened Zhou Wen's sense of unfamiliarity.
Heavens … What happened in the past five years … Zhou Wen snapped to his senses and groaned inwardly.
That wasn't the only thing that surprised Zhou Wen. The changes in the past five years were too great. Zhou Wen wished he could immediately return to land and see how his family and friends were doing.
However, from what I said, the An family is still entrenched in Luoyang. Not only have they not declined, but they have become even stronger.
The An family managed many dimensional zones in Luoyang and took in many refugees who had fled to Luoyang. Now, they were considered one of the few major factions in the East District. Even the people in the Senate were somewhat afraid of the An family.
