"That's right, it was to create a god. It's a pity that he failed in the end."
Bai Zizai shrugged and said regretfully.
"However, although he failed to create a god, he used his special magical power to discover an invisible, formless but real... Qi in the meridians of the corpse.
Before his death, this god passed on his research findings to the most intelligent people in the human race at that time. After many years of research and practice, the human race mastered the ability to absorb this Qi from heaven and earth into the body, and then transform it into
Make it a method you can use for yourself.
Later, the human race called the Qi that had not been absorbed and transformed between heaven and earth called spiritual energy, and the energy that could be absorbed into the body and freely controlled was called spiritual power. At this point, the human race had the first practice method.
Many years later, the first batch of human race wise men also had differences among themselves. Some continued to study how to absorb and transform spiritual power more efficiently. The other part wanted to trace the source, hoping that through the study of spiritual power,
Replicate God’s ability—supernatural power.
The group of people who studied spiritual power later went to the southwest corner of the continent to establish the Qiankun Temple, while the group of people who studied supernatural powers stayed in the center of the continent and established the Great Mercy Temple. Hundreds of years later, the Mountain Top Academy in the southeast corner of the continent
In the book, a great Confucian realized the method of cultivating Haoran Qi, and Shushan was established. A group of martial artists who mastered the method of cultivating Qi established the Wuzong in the northwest corner of the mainland. Later, as the sword cultivator became more powerful, they simply changed the name.
, called the Sword Pavilion. The human race in the wild lands of the north discovered that they could obtain spiritual power from the flesh, flesh and soul of monsters and beasts. Due to the practice of this kind of practice, people's bodies would undergo some changes, and their temperaments would become more violent.
Being rejected by the human race in the Central Plains region, the northern human race called themselves the demon clan and established a demon temple in the northeastern corner of the mainland.
More than a thousand years later, the method of cultivation has been studied to the extreme. Several great monks suddenly broke through the void and ascended one day.
Only then did people realize that it could still be like this.
So since then, the human race who have mastered the method of cultivation have taken the ultimate goal of ascending to immortality and called themselves immortal cultivators. Until they were arrested and punished by gods more than 800 years ago, they had no choice but to remove the word "immortal" and change it to "monk".

Ahem, cough, cough, my throat is dry after talking so much all at once, why don’t Mr. Rong make the guests a cup of tea to soothe their throats?”
Bai Zizai pretended to cough a few times and then complained...z.br
Rong Fei walked to the table, picked up the teapot, poured a cup of cold tea and handed it to Bai Zizai.
"Hey! What kind of tea is this? It tastes like nothing I've ever tasted before."
After drinking the full cup of tea in one gulp, Bai Zizi smashed it and muttered.
Rong Fei opened the lid of the teapot, and a faint musty smell hit his nostrils. He glanced at the black and green mold floating in the pot, and Rong Fei silently covered the teapot and put it back on the table.
"Having said so much, what do you want to express?"
Rong Fei asked.
"After the death of those powerful men who claimed to be gods in ancient times, their magical powers would condense into a certain part of their bodies and become magic weapons. This is how the first batch of magic weapons in the world were born. Moreover, in ancient times, there were geniuses, treasures, rare birds and animals, etc.
Spiritual objects are no longer difficult to find nowadays. As long as you can find any of them in the ancient ruins, hey, hey, then you will be prosperous. If you are lucky enough to find three or two of them, hey, hey, you can wake up from your dream with a smile."
Bai Zi said with an exaggerated look.
"Since there are so many coveted treasures in the ancient ruins, there must be many people coveting them, including some great monks from the earth or heaven realm. Wouldn't that be very dangerous?"
"This... this... hahahaha, I just remembered it after you reminded me. I forgot to mention some things just now. The ancient times have been more than five thousand years ago. In such a long time, there were actually about eighty or ninety
ancient ruins are now available.
But you also know that no matter what good food is left for too long, some unpredictable changes may occur. For example, the food will go rancid, the water will become smelly, and the bones will turn into dust.
When the first few ancient ruins appeared in the world, it was indeed as you said, attracting powerful people in the world to flock to them. Unfortunately, they were not lucky.
Some of the good things in the ruins are all broken and of little value.
Later, when ruins appeared again, these strong men were a little too lazy to move. After all, the Chessboard Continent is vast, and it would take a lot of time for the strong ones in the heaven realm to fly with the wind, not to mention the land realm and human realm where they can't fly.
A monk.
I was too lazy to make the trip in vain, and I was also worried that if there were good things in the newly discovered ruins that would be taken away by others, all the practicing sects discussed a countermeasure. Only human realm monks were allowed to enter and explore the ancient ruins.
Monks from the Earth Realm and Heaven Realm were not allowed to enter, otherwise they would attack them in groups. Hence, the first batch of people walking around the world were born.
Of course, today, traveling around the world is no longer just about fighting for the treasures in ancient ruins. There are also many tasks such as training in the world of mortals, slaying demons, selecting disciples with spiritual talents, and so on."
"How many ancient ruins have been discovered so far?"
Rong Fei asked.
"Didn't I just say that there are about eighty or ninety people?"
Bai Zizai said vaguely.
Rong Fei crossed his arms across his chest, looked at Bai Zizai and sneered.
"Okay, okay, I know I can't fool you. So far, a total of thirteen ancient ruins have appeared."
"How many treasures have been obtained?"
"Um... Well, as I said before, this kind of thing depends on luck. Who doesn't have three weak and six prosperous ones, right? Don't always look at me with that look, as if I'm...
It’s the same as telling a lie. OK, OK, OK, you win, a total of... a total of..."
"Please speak louder, I didn't hear you clearly."
"Not a single thing."
Bai Zizai muttered very quickly.
Rong Fei was amused.
There is not even a single treasure among the thirteen ancient ruins. No wonder the great monk is not interested.
But while it's funny, I can't help but feel a little strange. Since the chance of finding treasures in the ruins is so low, well... I can't say low, it's basically zero.
Why is Bai Zizai still so interested in ancient ruins?
Seemingly understanding the confusion in Rong Fei's eyes, Bai Zizai explained.
"Although we haven't found any treasures in ancient ruins so far, we can't conclude that there are no newly discovered treasures, right? Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the rare event.
Therefore, all the major sects have issued death orders to those within their sects who are walking around the world. Whenever there are ancient ruins in the world, they must rush there quickly, otherwise they will be severely punished."
"Oh, that's right. Then I wish Brother Bai a successful start in this trip."
Rongfei Gongshou Dao.
Bai Zizai grabbed Rong Fei's arm and said anxiously.
"Don't act stupid, you know what I mean."
"Huh? What do you mean, Brother Bai?"
Rong Fei asked knowingly.
"I'm looking for your help."
"Don't make trouble. I'm just a pawn with an eighth-level cultivation. If I go there, I'll only cause trouble."
"I'm not asking you to help fight, but I'm going to use your resourcefulness to deal with those insidious guys in Shushan and the stinky Taoist priests from Qiankun Temple."
After laying the groundwork for a long time, Bai Zizai finally revealed his purpose.
"The time when the ruins appear is variable. Sometimes not a single one appears for hundreds of years. Sometimes they appear like mushrooms after a rain, one after another.
In June last year, a ruin was discovered in Danzhou, the eastern border. Only a little over a year ago, signs of a ruin were discovered in Linzhou, the northern border. The distance between the east and the north was tens of thousands of miles, and it was really exhausting.
Last year in Danzhou, forty or fifty people from large and small sects were present. Those from small and medium-sized sects had mediocre cultivation, and only those from the Four Ultimate Holy Lands who had the real ability to touch the ruins were present.
Because Linzhou is close to Jiange and Demon Palace, these two sects have the most visitors in the world. We have three people from Jiange Pavilion, four from Demon Sect, and two people each from Qiankun Temple and Shushan.
Except for a few monsters with incredible cultivation qualifications, most of the people walking around the Four Absolute Holy Lands have similar cultivation levels. At this time, the party with more people will naturally have the advantage.
But among the two people Qiankun Observer saw, there was one evildoer. It was Murong Canghai, the elder brother of Murong Qiu Shui who was slapped by you. As a result, Qiankun Observer with only two people present was actually the strongest, followed by our Jiange. , the Demon Palace is third, and Shushan is the weakest.”
"The Demon Palace has one more person than your Sword Pavilion, so why are they ranked third?"
Rong Fei asked.
"Hehehehe, he is not talented at all, but he is also one of the monsters with unparalleled qualifications. He is just a little bit worse than Murong Canghai, so he beat the four people from the Demon Palace and ranked second, hehehehe."
Bai Zizai explained quite complacently.
"But... alas! Although more than a year has passed, I still feel aggrieved when I think about it. Those two bastards in Shushan played a dirty trick. They secretly recruited people from small and medium-sized sects to form an alliance and attacked us respectively. The three parties carried out a sneak attack. Unprepared, we all suffered some injuries. We had no choice but to join forces to fight against them.
Fortunately, no treasure was found in the ruins in the end, so there was no reason to fight, and they dispersed in the end. Otherwise, it’s hard to say whether we could have come out of the ruins alive, after all, the ants will bite the elephant to death.”
"Will the disciples of the Four Ultimate Holy Lands also fight each other to the death?"
Rong Fei asked curiously.
"Why practice if you don't fight? It's boring and hard. You want to live forever or ascend to immortality, right? Stop making trouble. Human realm monks only live thirty or forty years longer than ordinary people, more than a hundred years old. It's the end. It is said that the longest a monk in the earth realm can live is nearly three hundred years old. A monk in the heaven realm can live to be six or seven hundred years old when he reaches the peak cultivation level of the first level. The lifespan of a super-level monk is nine hundred and ninety years. Nine, just one year shy of reaching a thousand years old.
Out of a hundred monks, no more than ten will be able to break through the seventh level and reach the earth realm. With good luck, at most one or two of these ten monks will be able to break through the fourth level and reach the heaven realm. In fact, most of the time the entire army will be wiped out. , everyone was uniformly trapped at the peak of the fourth level, and finally died of old age together.
Therefore, only those monsters with extremely extraordinary qualifications will set the ultimate goal of spiritual practice as ascension. The rest of the people just want to live for a few more decades and enjoy it. It’s just boring to live, so they always have to find something interesting, fun and exciting to do.
Just do it. And fighting is one of the most interesting things.
Besides, hey hey hey..."
Bai Zizai smiled and gave Rong Fei a knowing look.
