"The most prosperous period of the human race was thirty thousand years ago."

Gu Yan slowly savored the spiritual tea while reminiscing about the story. Xu Feng and Zi Buyu beside him listened attentively with longing on their faces.

"The last generation of human emperors emerged, swept across the ten regions of the human race, unified the ten kingdoms, and ushered in a long period of peace and prosperity for the human race."

"At that time, wild beasts were rampant on this Xuantian Star, divine beasts were everywhere, and primitive species and spiritual beasts of heaven and earth could be seen everywhere. The good human race lived under the threat of these powerful ancient monsters. Under the leadership of the Human Emperor, some wild beasts that harmed the human race were killed, and those top powerful divine beasts and ancient monsters also signed peace contracts with the human race."

"The human race was finally no longer in danger from the ancient monster, so the Human Emperor ascended to heaven to seek the truth, and has since disappeared without a trace."

"Thirty thousand years ago, the immortals descended, and the arrival of these immortals finally brought disaster and war to this land."

"But even so, the human race is still strong and prosperous, and the battle with the immortal race on this planet is evenly matched."

"At that time, the human race had ten major king tribes, hundreds of general tribes, thousands of military tribes, and tens of thousands of scattered tribes, with tens of millions of people, millions of soldiers, 108 divine generals, and ten human kings!"

"The human race at that time was unprecedentedly powerful, but the immortal race was equally strong. They also had powerful people to fight against the human race. And the most important thing was that they could get help from the outside world. The immortal evil spirits left behind by the immortals who descended from the sky all had ways to contact their superiors."

"So as one side gained strength while the other lost strength, the human race gradually began to be at a disadvantage. So after discussing with the ten human kings, they sent three people to the endless starry sky to search for the whereabouts of the human emperor in order to save the human race from its decline. However, none of them came back, and the human race's disadvantage became even greater. The remaining seven human kings began to be unable to cope with the situation."

"In the next 20,000 years, the human race has lost many experts. The number of new experts is not as many as the number of experts who died. The trend of human defeat has become apparent."

"But we humans are strong enough. With the many inheritances and magic weapons left by our ancestors, we have survived even in the constant defeats and resistances."

"When I became a formation spirit, although the Human King Bai Cang had already fallen, the human race still had three major king tribes. I never thought that after ten thousand years, the king tribes would have disappeared from the world."

In addition to fatigue, Gu Yan's expression also showed deep sadness.

Xu Feng and the other person didn't know how to comfort the old man, so they could only take the opportunity to ask questions to divert his attention.

"Senior, what is the King's Department? What are the General's Department, the Military Department, and the Miscellaneous Department?"

Zi Buyu asked puzzledly.

Gu Yan sighed, and naturally saw the thoughts of the two juniors, but he didn't care: "Before talking about these, I have to mention my human race's cultivation system first."

"The cultivation of the human race begins with the tempering of blood, followed by the tempering of bones, the tempering of souls, the tempering of the earth, and the tempering of the sky."

"Blood Tempering practitioners are collectively called combat soldiers. Only after they enter the Bone Tempering stage can they have the opportunity to be named commanders. Only those who have reached the Soul Tempering stage are qualified to be generals. The strongest among the Soul Tempering are called Divine Generals. After that, those who enter the Thorough Stage can be called kings. Only those who are recognized as kings by the human race can be called human kings."

"And only by reaching the Tongtian realm can one become the Human Emperor."

"This is the complete cultivation system of the human race."

The old man glanced at Xu Feng and Zi Buyu, who were full of excitement, and smiled slightly: "It is said that there are two realms above Tongtian, one is called Zhaixing and the other is called Nayue. However, the human race has not appeared so far. As for the origin of these realms, they were also told by the cultivators outside the sky."

"The human race is based on tribes. The so-called scattered tribes are small tribes that have not produced a powerful person who has reached the Great Perfection of Blood Tempering. No matter how many people there are in your tribe, it is called a scattered tribe."

"Once a person who has reached the Great Perfection of Blood Tempering is born in the scattered units, he can be promoted to the lower-level military unit."

"If a strong man who has achieved the bone tempering is born in the military department, he will be eligible to be promoted to the middle military department. Only a strong man who has achieved the great perfection of bone tempering is born in the military department, and he will be eligible to be promoted to the superior military department."

“Only when there is a strong soul-tempered person in the Ministry of War will he be qualified to be promoted to the Ministry of Generals. There is no hierarchy in the Ministry of Generals, but there are strong generals among the tribes. The strongest among them is called a Divine General. When I was named a Divine General, the human race had a total of thirty-six Divine Generals.” The old man spoke with a hint of nostalgia.

Xu Feng couldn't help but look at Zi Buyu again, both of them were shocked.

What kind of era was that!

powerful!

So powerful!

"Similarly, once someone from the General Division breaks through and enters the Earth-Clearing Realm, he will be eligible to be promoted to the King Division. Only when he is recognized as a king by the human race can he be called a Human King."

"So, there have always been only ten kings. The tribes of kings that are not recognized or have not yet been recognized are also called generals, but they are just titles."

"For example, the Blood Sword Tribe, which was known as the strongest tribal group, and the Guishan Tribe, which was the richest, were such tribal groups. Their tribal leaders were all king-level warriors."

"Guishan's troops?" Xu Feng was stunned.

Gu Yan nodded, looked around and said, "This is the Guishan General's tribe back then. It is also the tribe where the Human King Bai Cang came from, so the Human King suppressed the formation here. The Human King is respectable."

Xu Feng and Zi Buyu were both silent.

It turns out that this place was so glorious many years ago, but now it is in this state.

"Don't be sad. The Human King is for the entire human race. It's a pity that the current Xuan Xing... Alas."

Gu Yan sighed.

Xu Feng digested this shocking information and finally began to ask some questions about his own cultivation.

"Senior, you should have noticed that although I have cultivated my Yuan force, I have also cultivated my Qi and blood force. However, the inheritance I received is incomplete. Until I was cleansed, I only knew about the Blood Tempering Realm. Can you tell me about the other realms? I want to pave the way for my future practice."

Gu Yan nodded and said, "Yes, you have now cultivated to the Great Perfection of Qi and Blood, which is the first realm of human cultivation. Originally, after this, you should have begun to temper your bones with your blood and entered the Bone Tempering Realm. However, when I observed that you broke through that day, your fighting spirit turned purple and gave birth to a sky-high purple aura that was a full ten feet high. This means that you have the luck of the human race and have the qualifications to become a divine general."

"So you can continue to temper your blood first. In this way, when you break through to the bone tempering stage in the future, your strength will far exceed that of ordinary people. It is said that the last generation of human emperors in the history of the human race tempered their blood eight times in the blood tempering stage, so they had such a powerful figure."

"But those eight times are just a legend. It is too difficult. Moreover, at the end, the blood and qi can no longer be suppressed and the body will naturally begin to temper the bones. If you can temper the blood three times, it will be enough. If you can do it five times, even the Human King Bai Cang could only achieve this."

Gu Yan smiled.

At the same time, he looked at Zi Buyu who was standing aside with a look of longing.

"Senior, what is the Blood Tempering Realm?" Zi Buyu asked anxiously. He knew nothing.
