Chapter 559 I hate those damn bastard dragons so much!!!
【？ 】
[Immortal Hedao? ]
Are you kidding?
Starting from zero frame, the Spirit of Dragon Palace directly gave Lu Wenwu a big question mark after he accepted the "friend request".
And questioned his identity as an immortal.
"It's hard to say. After all, it was your subsystem that sent me the identity. If he says it's mine, then that's it." Lu Wenwu replied with a smile, "By the way, have you always been so brave? How dare you question the Hedao Realm? It can't be that there are still some ancestors of the True Dragon Clan who are asleep?"
[Sleeping is bullshit. They moved out a long time ago. This place is just a rotten empty shell.]
The voice of the Dragon Palace Spirit sounded in Lu Wenwu's mind, and he sneered at it.
[I don't know how many years have passed since I fell asleep, and I have lost countless parts of myself.]
[For me, my death was pronounced when those guys left me behind. What difference does it make if I die early or late?]
"But to be honest, it's not a problem if those guys don't take me with them. After all, my existence is tied to this Dragon Palace, and this Dragon Palace is the core of this cave heaven. Once it's stripped away, the cave heaven will immediately collapse, and the Dragon Palace will also suffer some damage."
So those generous fellows left me and this rotten palace behind, calling it a legacy for future generations.
[I'm speechless. It turns out that the ones left alone in this empty room aren't these damn guys?]
They left without a trace, leaving behind not only their cubs but even a single, vibrant dragon egg. Is there any pure-blooded true dragon left in this world capable of inheriting the Dragon Palace?
【How hilarious! 】
I don’t know if it’s because he slept for too long, or if he’s just a chatterbox.
In short, the awakened Long Ling was very talkative and kept muttering to himself.
After Lu Wenwu said that, he was never given the chance to interrupt again.
"Speaking of which, could you tell me, who are you? How long has it been since I fell asleep? What's the outside world like now? What has become of the world without the immortal way?"
[I don't remember you. I've met all the immortals in the Immortal Court. No one would be unwilling to make friends with the True Dragon Clan.]
[After all, who would refuse the friendship of a group of powerful, peaceful, wealthy, and generous people? ]
[Unknown strong man, your existence is an anomaly. Since the world was shattered, the great Dao is incomplete. This world should no longer be able to give birth to a Hedao Immortal Venerable.]
"The world is broken? The Great Dao is incomplete?" Lu Wenwu keenly grasped the key point. "Please elaborate on the broken world. I am very interested in this history."
[Hey, hey, hey, although I don't mind answering your questions, but you should also answer the questions of a lonely old formation spirit like me, right? At least it should be a fair trade!]
The spirit of the Dragon Palace was obviously dissatisfied with Lu Wenwu's neglect.
"You make sense. You cleared up my confusion, so I should clear up yours."
Lu Wenwu thought for a moment and agreed.
"My name is Lu Wenwu. I received a request for help from the will of Blue Star. At its behest, I traveled here from another world to save Blue Star and its human race. I am a member of the human race, and can also be considered a Purgatory Demon Dragon of the True Dragon Clan. Or, in some worlds, I am also called the Primordial Demon."
[A Purgatory Dragon that traveled from another world to save the human race on Blue Star?]
If it came from another world, it would make sense for it to give birth to a Hedao Immortal Venerable.
[Haha. As expected, all dragons in the world are just suckers. Only you idiots like to spend all day doing this thankless and troublesome shit.]
The spirit of the Dragon Palace made a sharp comment on this.
It can be seen that it is really resentful about the dragon clan abandoning it and running away.
Lu Wenwu declined to comment.
Anyway, he didn't create this thing, so you can't blame him. It's enough that he can answer my questions and resolve my doubts.
So, according to you, the human race is still the dominant race in the world today? And these useless descendants of the immortals are almost destroying themselves? They're really bringing shame to their ancestors.
"Well, you can't say that. They are already going against the will of heaven."
Lu Wenwu thought about the history of the spiritual energy revival of Blue Star in the past three hundred years, and decisively spoke up to help save face.
"About three hundred years ago, the spiritual energy of Blue Star revived. Before that, the inheritance of the immortal way had been completely cut off, and only the rudiments of mundane martial arts remained in the human race."
"For the past three hundred years, the human race has faced a combined attack from every alien race in the universe. They relied on the immortal techniques they unearthed from the ruins to deduce even more powerful martial arts. Despite the siege from so many alien races, they have managed to hold on until now."
"Currently, the mainstream cultivation method of the human race is martial arts. In addition, there are some niche systems that have relatively high requirements for practitioners. I will open some memory permissions to you, so you can take a look for yourself."
"But generally speaking, I think it's not easy for them to have blazed a trail comparable to that of the Hedao Immortal Venerable in just three hundred years. You can't expect too much from them based on the prosperous era of the immortal path in the past."
As Lu Wenwu spoke, he packed up the memories in his soul about cultivation and the current situation of the human race and sent them to the spirit of the Dragon Palace.
Mobilizing the computing power of the entire Dragon Palace to verify the calculations will speed up the process.
In less than three seconds, the other party had completed browsing and understanding this memory.
【Tsk, it's just okay.】
[This so-called martial arts originated from the immortal way, but it takes a different approach, developing on the basis of the previously unpopular physical cultivation.]
[Although he has made some progress, he is still too weak among his peers. He is completely missing the point.]
[If it were in the past when the Great Dao was in good shape, the so-called Star Martial Saint would be vulnerable to the Hedao Immortal Venerable and would be extremely weak!]
[When it comes to longevity, this martial art falls far short.]
[Not to mention when the world was intact, even in the era when the world was broken and the Great Dao was incomplete, the lifespan of the Immortal Venerable was often counted in millions, and any minor Golden Core cultivator could live for two hundred years.]
[In the past, when the Great Dao was complete, the lifespan of the Hedao Immortal Venerable was infinite, as long as the heaven and earth, and as brilliant as the sun and the moon!]
[Even if the Star Martial Saints in the world today have reached the pinnacle of their cultivation, they cannot live past 500 years old.]
【Not worth mentioning! 】
Lu Wenwu raised his eyebrows: "You also said that the Hedao Immortal Venerable was able to defeat the Xingchen Martial Saint in seconds when the Great Dao was in full swing. In this Dharma Ending Age, the Immortal Dao's methods may not be so effective."
The spirit of the Dragon Palace was silenced in an instant.
The Immortal Lord of Hedao.
The most important thing lies in the two words "harmony with the Tao".
However, the Great Dao is already incomplete. How can the Immortal Lords who take "harmony with the Dao" as the source of their power exert their due strength?
It’s an exaggeration to say that only one out of ten survives!
The cultivation of power must also change from borrowing, inducing, and leveraging the Great Dao in the ancient immortal times to cultivating and imitating power close to the Great Dao by oneself.
That is the law.
When it comes to martial arts, it’s the power of star maps and celestial phenomena.
Therefore, even though the Dragon Palace Spirit was reluctant to admit that the Immortal Path had been retired and was no longer suitable for the current version, he had to admit it.
The era of the Immortal Master Hedao is over.
Even if there really is a peak immortal who has reached perfection and is still sleeping, the power he can exert is probably only slightly stronger than that of a peak martial saint.
It is absolutely impossible to possess that kind of terrifying power that can destroy the world with a single thought.
Seeing that the spirit of the Dragon Palace did not respond, Lu Wenwu already had a rough assessment of the power of the Immortal Master Hedao in his mind.
Now, even if we really encounter an old ancestor with a short lifespan who breaks out of the divine source and brings with him the ultimate imperial weapon to the highest level, we don’t have to worry about Lao Deng crushing the young people.
Lu Wenwu was in a good mood after receiving an important piece of information. He simply continued, "As for how long you've been asleep, I don't know. I've only been in this world for less than half a year."
"But according to my speculation, the Dragon Palace ruins have been sealed for at least a million years, or possibly even longer."
"If you're interested in this, after I finish exploring the Dragon Palace, I'll notify the human race to send a team of archaeologists and historians to conduct a comprehensive survey of the Dragon Palace. You can ask them then; they're professionals."
"Now that I've answered many of your questions, it's time for you to fulfill your promise, right? I want to know about the shattered world and the ancient starry sky road."
【There is nothing new under the sun, what could be so hard to guess? 】
[You should have some guesses about this now-barren, wasteland-like universe, right? This isn't a hard story to guess.]
[Once upon a time, this world had no concept of the universe or planets, only a vast and endless piece of fertile land.]
[The Way of Immortality has reached its peak in this world, and the powerful can move stars, change the constellations, and transform mountains and seas with a single wave of their hands.]
[The most powerful Immortal Lord can even break through the barriers of the world and travel to other worlds.]
Countless traditions and sects have been passed down on this continent, and the struggle between lives has never stopped. Countless wars have broken out, affecting the entire continent.
[Until one day, this world finally couldn't bear the endless attacks and battles between the immortals, and it shattered, turning into the space universe you see today.]
[The broken fragments of the continent gathered together under the influence of gravity to form different planets one after another, and the spiritual essence gave some planets the power to give birth to spiritual energy and life.]
The survivors of the war realized that cultivation resources were dwindling, the concentration of spiritual energy was fading, and even the Great Dao was broken. It could no longer support the birth of immortals, let alone allow immortals to continue to break through. The power of various magics was also weakening.
The survivors believe that they cannot continue to fight endlessly like this. They need to unite and protect their only remaining home.
[Thus, the immortals of the human race united with the immortals of the demon and devil races to establish the Immortal Court, and to advance and retreat together.]
In order to continue to maintain the spiritual energy environment, they used the power of the entire Immortal Court to create an ancient starry sky road to connect every living star in the universe and reconnect the broken spiritual essence.
[Blue Star is the location of the former Immortal Palace. It is also the source of the most essential spiritual essence of the original continent, and it is the epitome of the divine beauty of heaven and earth.]
[However, you should also be able to guess that the Ancient Starry Sky Road can only be maintained temporarily. It is a means of survival, not a way to exist in the long run.]
[So, the Immortal Court once again mobilized the entire cultivation world's power, using billions of life stars as the foundation, the ancient starry sky road as the vein, and the blue star as the core, to create a super formation capable of lifting the clouds to ascend.]
"So, they ascended?" Lu Wenwu couldn't help but ask.
[Ascension is bullshit, it's just self-deception. To put it bluntly, it's just a super teleportation array.]
These heartless bastards drained almost all of the spiritual energy in the entire universe, nearly destroying the spiritual essence of Blue Star, before activating this formation.
[They can follow the coordinates left by the mighty beings who once transcended this universe, and travel to a world with a more complete avenue and more abundant spiritual power to continue their long life.]
[Look, they ate everything and ran away, leaving behind this mess.]
[You... Oh no, their generation is so lucky! It's all the fault of those bastards.]
[The Blue Star's spiritual essence wasn't drained away, but instead gave birth to Blue Star's consciousness. So be happy! Otherwise, the human race wouldn't even know what cultivation is, and would only regard it as an ancient myth!]
The voice of the Dragon Palace Spirit was full of teasing.
What it didn't know was that cultivation was indeed a legend three hundred years ago.
"As expected, an elder in the family is like a treasure. Chatting with you has really enriched my knowledge and has been a great help to me. Thank you very much." Lu Wenwu thanked the Dragon Palace Spirit. "I also wanted to ask, do you know anything about the Fire of Civilization and the Chaos Curse?"
[I know the Fire of Civilization. The immortals of the human race call it the Fire of Dao. In ancient times, before the human race ruled the world, it was used to enlighten the people. Later, when the human race became powerful, no one cared about it anymore.]
[I don't know what the Chaos Curse is. What is that?]
"I don't know. I only know the specific manifestations." Lu Wenwu shrugged. "Last time, when I used the fire of human civilization to devour the fire of the Red Claws' civilization, their entire tribe's intelligence was directly wiped out. Everything returned to chaos, and they were no different from beasts with cultivation."
"This is impossible! Dao Fire is merely the embodiment of a race's condensed destiny. Without it, the race's destiny will plummet, leading to the loss of dominance, or cultivation becoming more difficult, with a decrease in the birth rate of qualified cubs! How could such an incredible situation possibly occur?"
"If I knew, I wouldn't come to ask you." Lu Wenwu was a little helpless.
I originally thought I could get some answers from the Dragon Palace Spirit, but I didn't expect that the other party didn't know about this either.
[Wait a minute, I've been wanting to ask this since a while ago. What are alien races? The demon races of our time?]
"Well, from my personal opinion, it shouldn't be. The demon race is on the side of the human race and is even blessed by the fire of human civilization."
Lu Wenwu thought about it and explained with some uncertainty.
"If you force me to explain the difference between the two, I actually don't really understand it."
"It's probably because the demon race stands on the side of the human race and is regarded as an enemy by the other races."
"The alien race cultivates a system similar to martial arts, and has genetic toxins in its body. Both the demon race and the human race will die suddenly after consuming them."
"Moreover, the demon race follows their instinct to absorb and exhale the essence of the sun and moon, cultivating the magical skills inherited from their bloodline."
"It seems that the demons who are now on the side of the human race were all born on Blue Star after the revival of spiritual energy. Those demons who have transformed according to their bloodline inheritance naturally have a good impression of each other and stand together naturally."
"Those alien races existed long before the resurgence of Blue Star's spiritual energy. They seem to harbor immense hatred towards both humans and demons."
"It's just that there's something that's been on my mind for a long time, and it's something I can't figure out."
"If these alien races have been reproducing since your time, how could their heritage and accumulation be so weak?"
"Not only do they not understand the various arts of cultivation, they also lack any unique techniques or skills belonging to their own race. They focus solely on honing and tempering their bodies."
"But strangely enough, they've preserved very sophisticated space technology. They can propel small worlds along ancient star roads as jumping points, and they can even build space gates to invade Blue Planet. Do you have any idea about this?"
[I have no idea, I just woke up ten minutes ago!]
Lu Wenwu: “.”
Now he strongly suspected that the reason why the Dragon Palace Spirit was abandoned was because the real dragons disliked this guy's bad temper and nagging.
