Chapter 2 Tianyuan World (Thanks to Cai Ju who came to my alliance!)(1/2)
The dawn breaks.
A round of golden light rose from the east - but it was not a round sun, but a disk like a galaxy.
The blazing golden disc penetrates the sky, spanning the boundless void, dividing the sky of the entire world into two, with clouds sprinkling clouds for thousands of miles.
Mortal realm, new country, Qinglinzhou.
Linmo Mansion, Beiling City.
"Freshly out-of-cage buns, look, fresh..."
"The newly built Shishi dashboard of Qiaojin Sect has a built-in mechanism that can be used by you to observe the hours and determine the direction. It is a good product for all guests to use at home and to give it to relatives and friends!"
"The Beiling Laoshan Ginseng dug into the mountain a few days ago to replenish qi and blood, help practice, and refine elixirs. Don't miss it..."
"The best Beiling fine iron knives have all kinds of styles..."
At dawn, a city wakes up.
Beiling City is very lively, and the streets are filled with vendors shouting and promoting various commodities, with an attractive aroma.
Beiling City, located in the north of Xinguo, between Qinglin Prefecture and Baishan Prefecture, was not prosperous in the past, and was even considered a bitter and cold place used to exile prisoners in the past.
However, due to the calculations of the Houtu Sect practitioners of the New Ministry of Revenue and hard work on exploration, they finally found many spiritual iron veins here, and even noticed an extremely large spiritual stone vein.
Since then, Beiling City has been inclined with a large amount of resources and people have been continuously flowing in.
In just over a year, this place has gradually become one of several new resource hubs in the north of the new country, with a population of nearly one million.
Today, in Beiling City, there are a large number of unique mechanisms and local ore specialties. Several masters of Qiaojin Sect have smelting rooms here. Therefore, in addition to the mining personnel working locally, there are also many martial artists and cultivators coming here.
Therefore, from the long streets, you can even see several well-known land-level warriors in Qinglin Prefecture drinking with friends in local restaurants. From time to time, several admirers come forward to pay a visit and ask for advice, and you can also get a few jokes and advice.
A young man with long hair strolled on the street. He was wearing an inconspicuous black military uniform and witnessed the crowds of people around the streets. He smiled and looked around the city, with a blue and purple light flashing in his eyes.
Although Su Zhou had just entered the city not long ago, every move in Beiling City had already been reflected in his heart.
This time is very prosperous and peaceful.
Not far away at the entrance of the vegetable market, a butcher with some cultivation held a large pig with hundreds of kilograms with one hand and cut off the pig's head with one knife. Under the blockade of the energy, the pig blood gushed out spontaneously fell into the clay pot next to it, and it was not splashed everywhere.
The woman holding the little boy was waiting to buy fresh pork, and the poor-clad scholar also stood by, wanting to see if he could buy some pigs cheaply.
The merchants were selling spiritual materials, the vendors on the street sold fine iron and agricultural tools, and the old men and women in the neighborhood were doing morning work, while complaining to each other about topics such as, "There are more and more people from other places recently, and local houses are expensive again," and "the man next door was stealing fishy again."
All living beings have different forms. Although they are complicated, they can understand the actual situation of a world.
With a thought, Su Zhou understood a lot.
This is a prosperous era that is suddenly born.
Men and women in this world have a roughly equal rights. Scholars who are slightly poor will not be able to afford meat, and elite soldiers can also sell spiritual materials. If they are not strictly controlled, it means that there is generally no shortage of resources in this world.
The pedestrians walking on the road basically know some martial arts or practice skills. Although they are not proficient in it, their popularity is nearly six or seventeen.
The division of levels in this world is "man", "earth", and "heaven", which correspond to the awakening stage, the extraordinary stage and the commanding stage.
A human-level cultivator is only in the ordinary realm, and a ground-level cultivator has a trace of power of gods and demons, which can replace the celestial phenomena.
And the heavenly cultivator can even move mountains and seas, cut off rivers and cities, and use all his strength to prevent a single army.
As for the so-called "land realm" above the heavenly ranks, although it sounds ordinary, it is the strongest under the gods and demons. It can even be called the gods and demons walking on the earth. One person can establish a country, establish a sect, and control the power of the world.
As the overlord, Su Zhou really corresponds to this realm of real people on land.
In Beiling City, there are many human-level warriors, and there are also many earth-level warriors. Su Zhou slightly sensed the existence of the heaven-level, and then sensed three in this city with a population of less than one million.
There are three commanders in a million people.
"If this city can be calculated as an average, then the extraordinary and powerful people of such density are really worthy of being the primitive world."
Su Zhou, who arrived last night, turned into fallen leaves after being seen by the powerful man in this world, and came to the most popular city hundreds of kilometers away. Then he appeared here again, imitating local cultivators and entering the city to investigate the situation.
In order not to attract attention, Su Zhou used a secret method to cover up his appearance, and this local clothing was automatically made of feathers he grew up, and could barely be regarded as a spiritual armor.
It sounds strange to use your own feathers to make clothes, but this is something that any Taoist practitioner will do. Although Yala complained about being produced and sold by itself, it is as disgusting as using her own hair to braid yarn, Su Zhou still finds it quite interesting.
"My own down is much more comfortable and warmer than any velvet duck down. If it weren't for Yara, you could not wear it, otherwise I would have knit one for you."
Hearing this, the red snake spirit was shocked: "...disgusting!"
Now, after exploring Beiling City for a long time, Su Zhou has confirmed a lot of information.
This world is called Tianyuan.
The sun is like a disk, the moon is gone in the night sky, and the stars are like rivers.
The Tianyuan World is extremely vast, and the area of Zhongda continent alone is far greater than that of the earth.
The terrain of this world is complex, the world is prosperous in practice, the people are strong, and there are many ethnic groups, so there are often wars. In the past three thousand years, it has fallen into a state of full-scale war in the entire world, which is the so-called Three Thousand Years Warring States Period.
In the Warring States Period, there were often tragic situations of national destruction and clan destruction. Bodies were everywhere and bones were everywhere in the wild. What was even more tragic was the duel of the strong.
It was recorded in the past that both countries were kings of land real people. They fought for a hundred days in the central central continent and forced the 800-mile Hongshan Mountains into a plain. During this period, the earth was shaken, the mountain floods were flooded, and disasters such as strong winds, star falls, and heavy rainstorms occurred. Millions of people died because of this, and ten times more people were displaced.
During the entire Warring States Period, countless people were killed or injured in the Zhengtianyuan Realm, starting at least tens of billions. There were countless resentful souls and monsters in the world, and many evil demons were nurtured.
However, that's all over the past.
After three thousand years of Warring States Period, the Central Continent, which was once a thousand countries, was finally unified by the new country. Whether it is the resentful soul monster or the evil demon, they have been completely eradicated.
Su Zhou's current location is between the ten prefectures of the new country, between Qinglin Prefecture and Baishan Prefecture, which is north of the north.
No matter how far away it is, there is no one in the bitter and cold, only the northern continent of the deserted forests and ice land, and the Northern Barbarian tribes living in it.
The new country is the first nearly unified dynasty in the history of Zhongda Continent. The contemporary founding saint emperor is a natural saint. It is said that he was reincarnated by gods and demons. He has been born with Su Hui since childhood and has been well-educated. Because he could not bear the disputes between the nations in the Warring States Period and the people were suffering, he revolted into an army, sweeping all enemies in the world and invincible.
Even the extraterritorial Kun Yao clan, which had been raging in the Tianyuan Realm for thousands of years and devoured countless creatures, was eventually defeated by the Holy Emperor's army more than ten years ago and retreated from Zhongzhou. Now it has disappeared and no sign of resurrection.
Although Zhengguo has only been in the founding year, he has actually ruled Zhongzhou for more than ten years. The founding emperor has made great strategies and worked hard to govern. Soon after the official founding of the country, he will not pick up the road of governance of the entire country and not close his doors at night. The country is prosperous and the people are strong, and the public and private granaries are abundant.
In just one morning, Su Zhou could know so much with his thoughtless heart, which was a rough understanding of the basic situation of this world.
It’s just a pity that Beiling City is an emerging place after all, and people here know so much news. Moreover, because it is located in a remote place, even in the Warring States Period, it was not the main battlefield, so many news and news are heard and only a little bit understood.
The clearest information among them is related to the Holy Emperor.
"This person is interesting. He actually praised the people and slandered him?"
"Biyi and transform the Five Virtues, create the Five Virtues, and build the army with the clan, establish the country with the clan, and coordinate everything with the five virtues and teachings - "Haodizu", "Qiaojin", "Qinglin", "True Fire", and "Xuanshui", which is essentially the same as the Ministry of Revenue, the Ministry of Works, the Ministry of Agriculture, the Military and the Ministry of Rites. The Holy Emperor himself is the sect leader of the Five Virtues, and he is also the founding king of the new country. Therefore, he has the extraordinary ones on one hand and the ordinary people on the other hand."
Building a country with a sect is actually not surprising for this extraordinary world. Especially if you want to solve the chaotic situation and use the fastest speed to pull up a highly cohesive team, this may be the only way.
Su Zhou naturally cared about this Holy Emperor.
He was very clear that as the saying goes, "Assessing the filth of a country is the lord of the country; receiving the illusion of a country is the king of the world." As a ruler, all the negative news of a country will be attributed to him.
It is really amazing to be able to be praised by the whole nation, whether it is the butcher on the roadside or the ground-level warriors who drink in the restaurant. At least it means that he has not made any judgment so far.
Such achievements are truly called the Holy Emperor.
"interesting."
Nodded slightly, after collecting the general information, Su Zhou's figure disappeared silently from the street, and no pedestrians on the roadside noticed it.
And the next moment, he appeared in the sky and overlooked the city.
Three thousand years ago, the Warring States Period began. However, in the middle and late Warring States period, Kun monsters from outside the region invaded the Tianyuan Realm and forced the countries to join forces to compete.
In order to resist this unimaginable enemy, the countries merged and destroyed, and in the end, only the new army of the Five Dezongs and the army of Zhengyang, which occupied the general trend at that time.
As a consortium of most of the former countries, in order to eliminate the Five Destiny Sect, Zhengyang Kingdom allowed Kun Yao to rage among the people several times, and even lost the hearts of the people. Therefore, after expelling Kun Yao, the "Five Destiny Zhengyang" war launched to unify Zhongzhou, Zhengyang Kingdom, which thought it was occupying the general trend, was easily defeated and destroyed. Most of the soldiers even surrendered in the middle and defected to the Holy Emperor.
"This world is very peaceful."
Staring at the city, Su Zhou asked Yara in his soul space, his tone was quite puzzled: "At least, from the perspective of the present world, whether it was the previous 'Three Thousand Years of Warring States Period', the 'World War of All Countries Against the Demons' or the 'Five Demons and Yang Battle' during the founding of the New Kingdom, it was all over, and it happened to be more than a year ago, and the great era had obviously ended."
"Didn't the God Scale say it will bring me to the center of the dispute? Am I late?"
Because I was too used to encountering various accidents as soon as it came, Su Zhou was really not very comfortable with such a peaceful situation in this world.
He thought that it was normal whether he was in the troubled times of the Warring States Period, against the Kun tribe, or the Battle of the Five Destinies and Zhengyang - the wars in those eras were called the center of disputes, which could dominate the rise, decline, honor and disgrace of the country, and the life and death of all living beings and peoples.
As for the scan of the divine thoughts of the Heavenly Venerable level that appeared when he arrived before, it naturally did not count. It was obviously an unexpected situation that occurred because of his dragon and snake breath - after all, it was the original world with a perfect subject, and it was not an accident that such a situation occurred. He mainly did not expect that the local strong men in this world were so sensitive to the dragon and snake bloodline.
"Su Zhou, you may have made something wrong."
Listening to the youth's questions, Yara answered intriguingly: "That is the gods and demons here, and it is likely that they are not as amiable as the immortals and gods in your hometown... It would be better to say that the gods and demons as amiable as the immortals and gods in your hometown are the real few."
"And, do you think the dominance of this world is the people?"
When talking about this, the snake spirit even shook his head with a smile: "This is a world with gods and demons of heaven - the one who dominates the core of this world's disputes cannot be those ordinary people, but only those gods and demons!"
"The world you see now is indeed peaceful and prosperous, but if the gods and demons have the intention, they can overturn it with just one thought... What is the difference between such peace and the flowers and moon in the water?"
"……really."
Hearing Yara's answer, Su Zhou couldn't help frowning slightly.
Although it sounds bad, it is indeed.
With the world of heavenly priests and gods and demons, the ideas of ordinary people, and the battle between ordinary cultivators of the third-level heaven, earth and man is simply no longer a dispute.
Didn't he think about this problem before... But if the gods and demons were unwilling to be peaceful in the world, then the world would not be peaceful. In other words, the reason why the new country was established means that the gods and demons allowed this.
To be continued...
