Hanging up and cultivating immortality in the troubled times

Chapter 133 Ancient History in the Age of Gods

"It's all because of the human race." The girl named Mo Yuan replied, "At the end of ancient times, someone stole the power of the emperor, allowing the human race to gain the power to control the laws of heaven and earth.

"After that, the human race was still respectful to the gods on the surface, but after tricking the gods into joining forces and expelling the demon clan from this world, the humans revealed their true colors, quietly plotted against the gods, and suppressed us underground."

"Emperor?" Lu Heng was a little surprised when he heard this. When he was learning about the history of this world, he had also seen this character in ancient historical books. Well, to be precise, he should be called "God".

This emperor is the supreme commander of the ancient gods.

Legend has it that he was born at the beginning of heaven and earth, and was surrounded by countless spiritual creatures. Any creature that gets close to him will be rewarded and qualified to become a god.

In that ancient era, the number of creatures in the world was very few. When the emperor walked on the earth, whenever he met a spiritual being, he would give him divine power. This is how the first gods were born.

The gods were born with holy virtues, and spontaneously formed the Divine Court. They supported the emperor as the commander-in-chief of all the gods, and at the same time ordered the gods to rule all living beings in the world and govern all things in the world.

Since then, all creatures in heaven and earth have lived in perfect harmony.

Powerful and powerful demons continue to appear among the demon clan, and demons are often connected to the divine court and canonized as gods, becoming so-called demon gods.

Heroes also began to emerge among the human race, leading the human race to overcome various difficulties, constantly expanding their living space, and gradually becoming the main body of life in the world.

This situation lasted until the end of ancient times.

If there are no accidents, this situation should continue.

However, after a period of sparse records, the demon clan suddenly disappeared. A few years later, after another period of sparse records, the Divine Court and the gods also disappeared.

Since then, the human race has become the master of heaven and earth, and the first dynasty "Xi" exclusive to the human race has been established. The human race finally has the king "Xi Huang" who unifies the world.

This is the beginning of an era of great prosperity for humanity.

The starting point of all these changes was at the end of ancient times, when the emperor suddenly disappeared without warning.

This is the record in the existing historical ancient books about the ancient times of gods and emperors.

Although these records are generally considered to be full of doubts and have many aspects that cannot withstand scrutiny, after all, the time is too long, and it is difficult to obtain true information on many things. Most people can only regard these records as history.

However, now there seems to be an opportunity to learn more about this period of ancient history. Since this Mo Yuan is a descendant of the ancient gods, what does this period of history look like from her perspective?
In Lu Heng's heart, he had always wanted to find out the situation of the ancient gods and monsters.

These two were too powerful and extremely mysterious in the records, giving him an uneasy feeling.

For example, the "Emperor" in the records was born at the beginning of the creation of heaven and earth, and did not disappear until about 7000 years ago.

How long do you have to live?

Tens of millions of years, or hundreds of millions of years?

It's too outrageous.

But even counting it only from the establishment of the Divine Court is very outrageous.

Various ancient historical records have different dates for the establishment of the Holy Court. Some say it was 10 years ago, while some say it was 3 years ago.

However, even the lowest estimate is that it was 7000 years ago.

This means that the emperor lived for at least 7000 years.

According to the description in "The Secret Record of the Nine Heavens Sword Immortal", even a top-grade immortal cultivator at the pinnacle of foundation building can live up to 5000 years.

Not even a fraction of that emperor's.What level of strength does this have to be?
It is true that someone who has lived a long time does not necessarily have a particularly strong strength, but a being who lived tens of thousands of years ago cannot be a fool, let alone be that weak.

Besides, since there is one emperor in this world, why can’t there be a second or third one?
It seems that in ancient times there appeared a powerful monster from the demon race who was said to be able to challenge the emperor.

Calls himself the "Demon King"!
But in this era, there are not many descriptions of these two in the vast books.

It simply records that they are very powerful, far more powerful than other creatures in this world.

This sense of mystery and unknown often makes Lu Heng feel uneasy.

Therefore, understanding that period of ancient history is indeed a very important need for him.

Lu Heng looked at the dull-looking Mo Yuan and said in a deep voice, "Tell me all the information you know about the Age of Gods."

"Yes." Mo Yuan nodded obediently and replied respectfully, "Our race of gods originally originated from beings who were given divine power by the emperor..."

From her description, Lu Heng quickly learned about a history of the gods that was completely different from what he knew before.

Regarding the situation in which the emperor bestowed divine power on living beings, what Mo Yuan said was no different from the records in ancient history books.

But what happens next is very different.

Those creatures who were endowed with divine power were not born with holy virtues, nor did they spontaneously form a divine court to support the emperor.

After being given divine power, they gradually gained a glimpse of the mysteries of heaven and earth, began to master the authority of natural laws, and gained the power to control all things.

Coupled with the long lifespan that comes with divine power, this makes them think that they are already superior to those beings who have not been given divine power.

So they called themselves the God Clan to distinguish themselves from all living beings.

The emperor did not interfere in this matter, and everything took its course.

But the original Protoss liked to enslave other races. At that time, both the human race and the demon race were races held captive by the Protoss.

It's just that the former is food and the latter is pets.

It was the darkest period for all living beings in the world, but it was also an era of freedom that the gods still miss.

Finally one day, the emperor stepped forward to stop this behavior, so that humans, monsters, and other races would no longer be enslaved.

Moreover, in order to further restrain the gods, he personally built the Divine Court in a place called Hongyading, conferred divine status on all the gods, and clarified the relevant responsibilities.

Only then did the order of the world, which had already fallen into chaos and darkness, return to the right track.

Only then did the demon clan and human clan rise.

Later, the Protoss felt the threat from the Demon Race and the Human Race, so they secretly created a series of conflicts, causing the two races to conflict, and finally the Protoss would arbitrate.

All living beings in the world gradually entered a strange state of balance.

Until one day, the emperor disappeared without warning, leaving behind the authority to control the gods.

But before the gods could compete for this authority, it was taken away by a human race.

The name of that human race is "Heyang"!
That is, the later Emperor Xi!
