At this moment, Li Chenglong was standing proudly on the podium. He held a pointer in his hand and tapped it on the podium, looking very stylish.
"Students!"
The little fatty began his lesson. He was not nervous at all and was full of calmness. It seemed that this was not his first time doing this.
"Next is Teacher Li's lesson time. You can enjoy your recovery while listening to my lesson. Remember to pay attention. Yes, Teacher Li does not know how to read people's faces, nor does he have the ability to discern victory or defeat. He also does not know how to boast … I am just an ordinary student, an ordinary student who knows a little more than everyone else …"
As soon as the little fatty finished speaking, a burst of low laughter sounded from the audience. It lasted for a long time.
The corner of Zuo Xiaoduo's mouth twitched.
This kid is asking for a beating. He is clearly taking revenge on me for knocking him down just now!
Making fun of me as soon as he got on the podium. He is not magnanimous enough!
But you don't know how magnanimous this Master Zuo is!
That's for making fun of me. Just you wait.
"Back to the topic."
The little fatty seemed to have changed into a different person. Not only was he calm, but he even seemed to be a little calm. "Speaking of history, we must first introduce our continent. The history of our continent of Astral Souls is so long that it is untraceable. It is blasphemous to simply use years to classify it. Therefore, we can only use the countless clues left behind by our ancestors to deduce what happened in each period. Of course, this is too difficult, too complicated, and too unfathomable for you. But for a genius like me, it is as easy as flipping my hand. "
The little fatty boasted. Without waiting for the audience to boo, he continued, "Now, let me explain in detail. Zuo Xiaoduo, don't think that you can glare at me just because you've won today. Although you're older than me and your battle awareness is better than mine, do you believe that I can chase you out with a single sentence right now? Now, immediately, immediately, smile at me with a flattering expression! "
The crowd roared with laughter.
While Zuo Xiaoduo was dumbfounded, he hurriedly tried his best to put on a fawning expression like a lackey. He nodded and bowed, "Greetings, Teacher Li. Thank you for your hard work, Teacher Li. You're awesome. Teacher Li is like a heifer as a sword immortal.
Li Chenglong nodded his head reservedly. "Sit down and pay attention in class. That's a good kid who works hard every day. Teacher Li praised you verbally once. Zuo Xiaoduo, you must not have received any praise for repeating five years, right? Do you feel a surge of emotions? "
The whole class roared with laughter again, rocking back and forth with laughter.
Zuo Xiaoduo put on a fake smile and said, "Yes, I'm overwhelmed with emotions. Teacher Li, there seems to be a ranking competition tomorrow. "
Li Chenglong shuddered and glared. "Start the lecture!"
Qin Fangyang nodded secretly.
Even if it was difficult for Li Chenglong to make further progress in his cultivation in the future, he would definitely be a good teacher. Just the way he opened his mouth to warm up the atmosphere and attract everyone's attention was already extraordinary. Not to mention, he even specially pointed out a person to coordinate with him, complementing each other perfectly. It was truly wonderful.
Of course, the harmonious atmosphere was thanks to the cooperation of another person. It was rare that Zuo Xiaoduo, who was older than all the students in the class, did not put on airs and cooperated seamlessly.
With the class warming up to such an extent, the following content would definitely be remembered very clearly. It would not be strange to say that it would be unforgettable for the rest of his life.
"The continent of Astral Souls is vast. No one knows exactly how big it is." Little Fatty's voice became serious.
"In ancient times, there was a powerful person who we call God Father. God Father opened up this space, which is the so-called creation of heaven and earth. Then, he created life out of nothing, and even created everything in the continent of Astral Souls. This is also the origin of the continent of Astral Souls."
"After God Father created the world, he left this place to pursue the Heavenly Axiom, leaving behind only a primitive era. However, as to how long this era lasted, it is impossible to know. It belongs to an era without any clues, so I won't go into details here. After the primitive era, it was the legendary prehistoric era. "
Little Fatty paused and said in a low voice, "Although I can't prove it, but according to my research, I've come to a conclusion. During that period of time, humans must have been struggling to survive and huddled together for warmth. Then, experts appeared, sects appeared, and then various almighties appeared …"
"Just by inferring this point, it is not enough to reach the apex. However, I also inferred that these people should have huddled together to fight against the heavens, against the earth, against the monsters and beasts, against the living environment, and even against the cruel atmosphere. However, in the end, there were disputes. It is also because of this that the primitive era evolved into the prehistoric era. There must be a reason behind this, but the reason is still difficult to verify because of the long time. It is limited to speculation."
"But our time does not allow me to finish these speculations. So I won't say it. "
"Next, let's talk about the prehistoric era. Humans in different regions gave themselves a tribe title and a name. Then, they had leaders and powerful people. The most powerful people were called … Saints!"
"A few Saints led their own tribes and occupied a region. They regulated the world, set rules, recuperated, and developed their own sects. For a period of time, although there were disputes on the continent, it was still considered peaceful. It can be considered as the golden age after the primitive era."
"Next, it was the immortal era. Powerful people from various sects came out in large numbers, and their ambitions grew bigger and bigger. They intended to encroach on other territories and other tribes. Thus, they began to fight. One established the Heavenly Court, the other established the Underworld; one managed the people of Heaven, the other managed the reincarnation of souls. Yes, there were other organizations that also appeared and fought. After a great war of the century, both sides suffered losses. They licked their wounds and recuperated. Because of this, the immortal era finally came to an end. "
Li Chenglong said, "Let's be brief here. There must be a lot of gratitude and grudges, as well as power struggles, and so on. Only that battle was truly too tragic, and it caused the vitality of both sides to be greatly damaged, causing them to be unable to continue! "
"According to ancient records, one of the more reliable theories …"
Little Fatty pondered and said, "… Probably after that war, the eight great sects did not want to be in the same continent as each other. So, the powerful people in the sects joined forces and forcefully separated the continent. With their own bases as the origin, they drifted away in the starry sky and disappeared."
"However, there is another theory. An expert forcefully suppressed all the sects. However, that expert did not have much time left after the continuous battles. Fearing that there would be more trouble after his death, that expert used up his remaining lifespan to erupt with a power that surpassed his own limits. He split the continent and drove out the eight sects that were fighting endlessly. They were allowed to wander in the starry sky and were not allowed to return. "
Everyone listened attentively.
Zuo Xiaoduo was even more shocked.
He more or less knew this knowledge, but it was far from being as systematic as what Little Fatty said.
"This is probably the biggest turning point in the history of the entire continent of Astral Souls!"
Little Fatty sighed and continued, "With the end of the era of immortals, what came next was the era of dynasties, the era of low martial arts for cultivators. Because of the war between immortals and immortals, the people were in a terrible situation. Countless forces and sects were reduced to ashes, and powerful people were killed or injured. After the eight great sects left, there were almost no systematic cultivation legacies left in the mortal world. "
"Without a higher mental cultivation method, the martial artists turned their cultivation to the direction of physical training. However, even if this cultivation was practiced to the extreme, they could at most fight against ten thousand people. But if they did not cultivate their spirit, it would be difficult for them to live forever. Their lifespan would at most be a few hundred years. "
"During this period, some immortals and immortals' legacies appeared from time to time. These people often boasted of being immortals and left many traces in history. But in the eyes of today's people, it was just a joke."
"During this period of feudal dynasties, the strength of cultivators was unprecedentedly low. But as the dynasties changed, illusions rose and disappeared, and those that were separated for a long time must be united, and those that were united for a long time must be divided. This provided a stage for countless heroes to show themselves. "
Little Fatty Li Chenglong's eyes were a little distant, and he said softly, "After the era of dynasties, it was the era of technology that was closer to ours. I think everyone is familiar with the so-called technology. The mobile phones, telephones, computers, and even planes and trains in our hands … these can be called the unique products of the era of technology. "
"After thousands of years of development, the wisdom of human beings became higher and higher. Because of the extinction of martial arts legacies, more and more people began to find other ways. Therefore, there were fighting methods other than cultivation, and there were also all kinds of machines that could replace the power of powerful martial artists. The so-called moving mountains and filling seas, and transmitting sound from a thousand miles away, were all trivial matters …"
"However, this is an era that is harmful to human beings! We call the era of technology an era of abandonment, an era of decadence! Why? Naturally, there are great reasons for this. "
"Looking at the history of human civilization, the era of technology can be said to be the era with the most lazy people. Countless talented people did not cultivate, and wasted their time. They were dull and dull, and they were like the dust of the sky. They abandoned the most fundamental things!"
"The countless skills of the era of technology came into being, causing the majority of human beings to abandon martial arts and turn to study the power of technology. But this kind of behavior was neglecting the essentials, and it caused the human body to become weaker and weaker, and their lifespan gradually shortened. "
"But with the continuous development of technology, there were airplanes, cannons, and even more powerful weapons. The average martial artist could not block a shot from a gun held by an ordinary person, and they could not dodge the absolute speed of the gun. This caused the number of martial artists to wither. Occasionally, there were cultivators, but they were only used to strengthen the body, and martial arts withered day by day!"
"Later on in the era of technology, it gradually evolved into a situation where martial arts were eliminated, and martial arts gradually became a legend."
"It was also in the era of technology, but for the earlier era of immortals and gods, and the prehistoric era, it turned from a legend to a myth, and it became more and more unverifiable, untrustworthy, and untraceable. No one would believe that a man could soar in the sky with his own strength, no one would believe that a man could move mountains and fill seas, and even more so, no one would believe that a man could live forever! "
"Everything about the high-level Cultivators has been overturned!"
"The power of technology allowed a man to travel around the world without expending any effort! He could also take down a martial artist with a single shot, and he would not have to worry about being attacked! Then what was the use of cultivation? "
"In that era, humans had long forgotten that the enemy of mankind was never human beings, but the heavens, the earth, the firmament, the universe, and the laws of all things!"
"So now, we call the era of technology … the era of martial arts destruction!"
At this point, Little Fatty took a few deep breaths, and then said dejectedly, "Then, the continuous development of the era of technology caused the ecological resources of the continent to be depleted bit by bit, until they were finally exhausted. Because of the countless technological wastes that destroyed the environment, the continent could not bear the burden … In the end, it finally reached the era of martial arts destruction."
"When technology was at its peak, the entire continent was filled with skyscrapers and cities. At that time, there was no such thing as the so-called suburbs, and the spiritual energy in the continent of Astral Souls became thinner and thinner. Cultivation was like a fantasy."
"But at that time, meteors suddenly appeared one day, and countless planets in the universe exploded. Countless meteors crashed into the continent of Astral Souls day and night."
"A fragment of a meteor the size of a fist, falling from the boundless sky, could instantly destroy a village. Not to mention a meteor the size of a small mountain, falling from the sky like a mountain …"
"That meteor shower continued for three hundred years, a whole three hundred years."
"If it was an ordinary meteor, with the development of technology at that time, it would not have been difficult to stop it. But with the power of the heavens and earth, which encompassed the entire continent, it was completely useless. And the ordinary people of the continent did not have the strength or physique to resist. A tremor was enough to kill millions of people in an instant! "
"In the end, the entire continent, which had a population of tens of billions, was wiped out. The continent withered, and life was difficult to find."
"This was the Period of Destruction!"
"This was the bitter fruit of hundreds of years of the technological era, and everyone in the continent had to taste it together!"
Li Chenglong took a deep breath. "Finally, the heavens took pity on us. They could not bear to see the complete extinction of human civilization, and left us with the opportunity to rise again. The Era of Spiritual Energy Revival followed."
"After the Period of Destruction, human habitation was so rare that it was terrifying. Deserted areas could be seen everywhere. And the meteor shower not only wiped out the entire continent's population, but it also dealt a devastating blow to the environment and economy. It became a difficult task for humans to survive. "
"Fortunately, at this time, people realized that the continent's environment was very different from before. The originally thin spiritual energy became denser. It turned out that the meteors that fell from the universe were all wrapped in abundant spiritual energy. Many of them even contained Star Spirit Stones, which constantly emitted spiritual energy. They were miraculous objects that aided cultivators. "
"And those Star Spirit Stones could be seen everywhere. They could be found all over the continent, in all the oceans and lakes. After all, they had been pouring out for three hundred years. It would be strange if there were fewer of them. Yes, these Star Spirit Stones are what we now call the Astral Souls Stone."
At this point, Zuo Xiaoduo nodded slowly. So this was the origin of the Astral Souls Stone.
"After the Great Cataclysm, the surviving humans rose from the ruins and resumed production and life. Some people continue to study science and technology, but there are also people who, by chance, discover that the Spirit Qi emitted by the Star Spirit Stone can be used to nourish the body. There are also a few martial arts inheritors who use it to cultivate martial arts. "
"However, the utilization of the Star Spirit Stones was not very high at that time. Even if they were occasionally used to cultivate martial arts, it was not very effective due to the decline of martial arts inheritances. After hundreds of years, human society has once again returned to the trajectory of the era of science and technology. The newly developed technology can already resist the bombardment of meteorites that have yet to stop … Another earth-shattering change is imminent! "
"Of the eight continents that had been separated in the early years, two suddenly returned from space and connected with the Astral Souls Continent. This huge change caused the entire continent to shake, the seas to churn, giant waves to rise to the sky, the entire continent to quake, and countless mountains to the bottom of the sea in an instant. Human civilization suffered a great blow once again! "
"As for the two sects that returned, they were two great opposing sects back then."
"One of them felt that the existing humans had occupied their original territory, and wanted to kill all humans in the Astral Souls Continent to restore their former glory. To put it bluntly, they were just jealous of this Spirit Realm that had been baptized by countless meteors."
"The humans used high-tech weapons to resist, but they found that the so-called guns were useless in front of these people. The so-called weapons of mass destruction were destroyed before they could be used. "
A mocking smile appeared on Little Fatty's face. "When humans see the enemy walking over in a long robe while thousands of people on our side are shooting madly with machine guns and cannons, the enemy doesn't even move a muscle. When the enemy casually slaughters tens of thousands of people, when the so-called advanced weapons that can destroy heaven and earth can't hurt the enemy at all. When we see the enemy sitting on top of the mushroom cloud with a mocking smile on his face … we finally understand that the path that humans have taken these years has been wrong!"
"Very wrong!"
"It was also at that time that the humans finally realized that there was no power more reliable than the supreme power that they themselves possessed!"
"No matter how advanced technology is, when the person involved is just a weak ant, there is no chance of luck against the strong!"
"It turns out that a person's strength can really fight against natural disasters, earthquakes, volcanoes, and even tsunamis …"
"Father gave us a body and wisdom that could be cultivated to the extreme, but we did not cherish it at all. Instead, we used it to reap without sowing, and used it to take advantage of opportunities!"
The little fatty sighed sadly. "This mistake … this mistake has been wrong for so many years …"
"Fortunately, there were two factions that returned together. One faction showed the ambition to completely destroy the native humans as soon as they descended, and the other faction may not have had the same intention at first. However, the other faction's overall strength was not as good as the previous faction, so they chose to join forces with the humans, passed down the martial arts seed, and started a long battle of life and death with the other faction."
"Stop!"
When the little fatty said this, Qin Fangyang, who had been standing at the side, suddenly interrupted and said indifferently, "Cut off the next part. With your current cultivation, you are not qualified to know more. "
The little fatty nodded.
"Yes, this is the budding period of our current era. Yes, or rather, the second budding period. "
"Next is the period we are in now, the period of high martial arts. We received the cultivation inheritance from one of the factions that returned, and after many years of development, human experts emerged one after another, and gradually began to walk the path of the strong. Martial arts and technology are equal, or rather, the path of cultivation is supported by technology. For example, the white mist that was cast on your body just now to heal your injuries and recover your strength is based on the energy of the Astral Souls Stone, supplemented by mechanical adjustments, and controlled to suit everyone's current state. "
Li Chenglong's face was serious. "Partners, do you know now that we are still on the edge of survival? The strength of the enemy is not something we can understand at our current level. "
"Countless strong people are now guarding the border day and night, or on the peak of the snow mountain, or on the island, or in the waves, or …"
The little fatty pointed above his head. "… Above the Ninth Heaven!"
"Perhaps, one day, we will wake up and this city we are in will no longer exist! Or, one day, we will sleep, and in our dreams … everything will be over! "
"This is our current era of high martial arts! There are incomparably strong enemies outside, unimaginably strong forces, or they have already infiltrated our side … Or, they are in our homes! "
"Furthermore, the meteors in the Starry Sky Universe are still falling!"
"Of the eight continents that were exiled, only two have returned. The others may not have perished in the universe, and they may still return at any time. "
"When that time comes, it will still be a world-ending catastrophe!"
"Our city is only protected by strong people, which diverts the falling meteors and causes them to fall into the wasteland. That is why we are safe and sound! "
As the little fatty said this, he glanced at Qin Fangyang.
Qin Fangyang nodded slightly.
Li Chenglong stood up straight. "Teacher Li will stop here for this lesson. Students, do you have any questions? Zuo Xiaoduo, do you understand? "
Zuo Xiaoduo raised his right hand. "Teacher Li, I understand."
Li Chenglong nodded with satisfaction. "If you understand, it means that everyone understands. I am very gratified and happy! "
… … …
It can be confirmed that the general framework of this book will start from this chapter. Because it is all introductions to the settings, there are no separate chapters. One chapter is enough.
Moreover, I am not sure if I have missed anything. Perhaps this chapter will be revised in the future.
Then, I am so tired. Big chapter, please recommend it!
