Chapter 178 Ten Thousand Years of Darkness [Please vote for me! 】
Ping'an Alley, Liang Family.
It was already late at night, and the hustle and bustle of the Colorful Clothes Festival finally calmed down. Li Caiyun was getting older and didn't care about this anymore. He went out for a while in the evening and went to bed early. Liang Peng and Liang Xiaoyun secretly left the house while she was asleep.
When the three little ones came back, they were quiet and did not disturb her.
Now on the small table in Liang Yue's room, there was a box of Feihua from Dingshenglou. The three of them sat down together, nervous and excited.
"Who will drive?" Liang Peng smiled softly.
"I'll do it." Liang Xiaoyun stood up and slowly opened the box with a click.
The box was opened, containing a bunch of bright red and gorgeous flower clusters. The edges were a little scorched, which may have been roasted previously. It's quite fresh and good-looking, and it's estimated to be worth dozens of pennies, which is in line with the value of Dingshenglou.
She took out the bouquet of flowers and knocked on the bottom of the box again. There were two thuds, and sure enough it was empty.
Liang Peng took action from the side and cut open the wooden board with a burst of true energy, revealing a narrow mezzanine. Sure enough, there was a cloth bag hidden in the mezzanine. After opening the bag, a blue vine was revealed. , there are still a few leaves vaguely on it.
"Seven-colored vine?" The three of them recognized this spiritual plant at the same time and were slightly disappointed.
Thanks to Jiang Yan’s earlier performance, they had a certain understanding of the power of the seven-color vine. Although this object also has special power, it is definitely not as good as the other ten complete immortal species.
But think about it, if someone gets a powerful and complete fairy seed, how can they trade it?
Liang Peng specially borrowed a book from the academy, which recorded in detail the origins and functions of the ten immortal species. He turned the pages of the book and said: "The function of the blue fairy vine is... to hide."
"Integrating this vine into the body can make the person's breath restrained and invisible when activated. Even if the cultivation level is several realms higher, it may not be found." He said.
"That's not bad." Hearing this, Liang Yue nodded, "The power of invisibility can play a huge role at critical moments."
Liang Xiaoyun said: "Brother, you usually go to dangerous places, and this fairy vine is suitable for you. "
"But my cultivation is better than yours..." Liang Yue hesitated slightly.
Because he has already hidden two Nine Secret Heavenly Books himself and has many trump cards, there is no need to compete with his younger brothers and sisters for immortal seeds.
Liang Peng nodded and said: "Brother, we two really can't use it. If it is other immortal species, we might have to weigh it. In terms of the magic of this immortal vine, it is indeed the most suitable for use. ”
After all, one of them is practicing quietly with the master, and the other is practicing quietly in the academy. Neither of them will involve too dangerous and complicated environment.
Only Liang Yue serves in the Zhuxie Division. Whether dealing with traitors in the DPRK or Nine Martingale spies, he has to deal with many crises. This method of invisibility is indeed possible.
Liang Yue pondered for a moment, then stopped being pretentious and just smiled: "Then if I have something good in the future, I will share it with you. If you need anything, just come and tell me. "
"Okay." Liang Xiaoyun smiled softly.
Liang Peng took out two more books and said: "Brother, these are some history books you asked me to check for you. The existing records about the Chu Sheng period and Ten Thousand Years of Darkness are all here. .”
Liang Yue suddenly became happy.
He had asked his younger brother to help him find some historical books in the academy, and he wanted to know more about the relevant matters.
After a few brief conversations, the younger siblings returned to their respective rooms and left the fairy vines for Liang Yue to refine.
However, Liang Yue did not rush to start refining the fairy vine. Instead, he opened the book and browsed briefly. What he was most curious about about that period of history was the origin of the Nine Secrets of Heavenly Book.
But there were no records about that period in ordinary bookstores. Only then did he think of the academy, thinking that there might be records in it.
really.
……
The history of the Nine Secrets of the Heavenly Book can be traced back to the late period of the ancient Chu Sage.
Liang Yue looked at the records in the books and realized that in ancient times, the human race's civilization of cultivating immortals had developed to an extremely developed stage. The number of Qi Refiners at that time was far greater than now, and the spiritual energy and resources in the human world could also afford it.
At the end of the Chu Sheng period, the world was prosperous and prosperous. The nine largest immortal sects managed the four seas and nine states, and the role of the dynasty was extremely downplayed. It's just that due to some subtle kinship relationships, it still exists as a symbol.
The political system at that time was similar to the "immortal monarchy" in which immortal sects co-governed and dynasties coexisted.
The separation of humans and demons was also completed by Chu Sheng during that period. As a result, the ancient dispute between the human race and the demon race seemed to be resolved.
Yes, it just seems.
Because all the prosperity and peace of that period were based on one foundation, Chu Sheng was alive.
As the most famous of the ancient saints, he brought many changes to the world, many of which were far ahead of the times at the time. While he remained on earth, these things were well executed.
But he will eventually embark on the road to ascension.
Before Chu Sheng ascended, he chopped down the Fantasy God Peak and left his most powerful power of creation in the world. In order to prevent this power from being abused, he sealed the power of creation in a secret place, divided the map into nine parts, and gave them to the nine most powerful immortal sects at the time.
Let them unite and use the power of creation to resist when the world is facing the crisis of annihilation, otherwise they will not be allowed to merge the maps.
This map is the Nine Secret Heavenly Book. "It turns out that the reason why the Nine Secrets of the Heavenly Book ranks first on the list of immortal objects is because it contains this big secret." Liang Yue just knew at this time, "When the Heavenly Books are united, you can find the power of creation."
But soon after he left, the direction of the world deviated.
The nine immortal sects have become the holders of power in the world, and the status of mortals has become lower and lower. The gradually increasing class of Qi Refiners has become the master of human beings.
Mortal people became soil nutrients that produced seeds for cultivating immortals. The vast majority of people who had no talent for cultivating were oppressed and enslaved, and in the end they were simply equal to cattle and horses.
No system in this world is perfect, not even the one left by Chu Sheng. As long as those in power lose control, it will inevitably lead to class separation and top-down oppression.
What can save the world is the struggle of each generation of oppressed people.
That era of joint rule by the immortal sects was called the Ten Thousand Years of Darkness.
Excluding the early days when the major immortal sects still maintained justice, and the later days of resistance and war, there were at least thousands of years in between, when the Qi Refiners were at the top, the mortals were humble, and those in power held powerful weapons. The power seemed completely irresistible.
Until the late period of the Immortal Sect Era, the nine great Immortal Sects attacked and fought with each other, and mortals also took the opportunity to develop.
Wu Sheng preached in the southwest and passed down the martial arts skills, which were passed down through the descendants of Jingmen.
Martial arts practice has actually existed since ancient times, but in the past, it was only considered a crude inheritance that only those who could not become Qi practitioners practiced martial arts, and it was looked down upon by people. But in that era, people discovered that martial arts that many people could practice could give them the power to resist.
The inheritance of martial arts is like a fire, gradually forming a prairie fire. The mortals of Jiuzhou and Jiu Yang strengthened themselves through martial arts practice. With absolute numerical superiority, after nearly a thousand years of resistance, they finally overthrew the rule of the Immortal Sect.
The Nine Secret Heavenly Book was thus lost.
Later, anti-immortal cultivation became a common trend. For a long time, Qi refiners were regarded as heretics, and their status changed drastically.
After the collapse of the Immortal Sect, the human world resumed its previous historical trajectory and returned to the dynasty era. Thousands of years passed.
Until three thousand years ago, the Kyushu Dynasty was in chaos and the demon clan invaded again.
Zhuang Sheng came out of nowhere and led a group of Qi Refiner disciples to repel the demon clan, and only then helped the Qi Refiner gain the right to survive. He established Xuanmen, led the Qi practitioners to practice outside the world, and no longer participated in human affairs, dispelling people's fear of the return of the dark age.
After that, the framework of the human world was stabilized again, forming a situation in which the dynasty governed the four seas and nine states, and Xuanmen stayed away from the world while restricting it.
Because of the lofty status that Zhuang Sheng has won for Xuanmen, the history of Ten Thousand Years of Darkness is no longer widely mentioned, so as not to arouse the hostility of ordinary people towards Qi Refiners. However, in places such as the imperial court and academies, this period of history is still firmly remembered, and those in power are always reminded that in order to curb the development of Qi Refiners, they must not allow them to become too powerful.
Because Qi Refiners are small in number and powerful, they are separated from the ordinary people, unlike warriors who can exist widely. Once those in power represent the interests of minority groups, the dark lessons are still vivid in our minds.
Liang Yue also had a feeling after watching it.
The reason why the human dynasty downplayed the history of Ten Thousand Years of Darkness may also be because the spirit of resistance that burst out in it was too great and magnificent, and was a little sensitive to the imperial power.
If that kind of spirit widely exists in the hearts of the people, then any person in power who attempts to solidify classes and oppress the bottom will be hit head-on with an iron fist!
……
At the same time, on the streets of the city.
After the prosperity faded away, there was only garbage scattered on the ground and a few people patrolling the streets.
Ling Yuanbao was among them.
She frowned, looking slightly unhappy.
Because just now, she had heard several rumors about Liang Yue's great power in Dingsheng Tower, describing him as a contemporary genius who emerged from the sky.
Obviously he was just a little soldier following him not long ago, why did he suddenly become so powerful?
Ling Yuanbao is not jealous of Liang Yue. What makes her depressed is that as a headhunter from the Criminal Department, she cannot participate in Feihua. When there is a lot of violence in the city, they have to patrol around and be on guard at all times to avoid major cases.
If not, wouldn't she have a chance to become famous tonight?
"Hi." Ling Yuanbao imagined the scene of snatching flying flowers, and couldn't help but sigh again when he thought of the pleasure.
And on the street corner not far away, in the darkness, a pair of eyes were staring at her quietly.
Ling Yuanbao seemed to have something in his heart and suddenly turned around.
Those eyes disappeared instantly...
Good morning.
Recommend a book from a friend.
Chen Yi traveled to a fantasy world filled with evil spirits. At the beginning, he was forced to beg on the streets. Fortunately, he got a stone tablet that could add points once a day. Regardless of occupation or martial arts, he could learn it as quickly as possible. .
With this, he used his fists to open up an invincible speed road!
