Chapter 307 The Truth
about Tongtian Road Fengqi first learned about Tongtian Road from Lu Yue.
But he still had no definite answer as to where exactly Tongtian Road was and what kind of place it was.
But through the exploration of multiple timelines, he did have a rough guess in his mind.
Those roadblockers mentioned by Lao Mi might be the powerful humans who disappeared in history, and the route that blocked the invasion of domain creatures was Tongtian Road.
But whether these guesses were the answers, the existing information obviously could not give an accurate explanation.
At this time, he learned that Tianshu had been to Tongtian Road and returned from Tongtian Road, and he suddenly realized that he might be able to learn the truth about Tongtian Road from Tianshu.
With expectation and doubt, he looked directly at Tianshu and asked:
"Tianshu, what exactly is Tongtian Road? Can you tell me in detail?"
Tianshu nodded without hesitation:
"It is a road that connects to another world, that is, the domain world. To be more precise, it is not one road, but countless roads."
"If the life in the domain world wants to come to our human world, it must choose to open up a road or move along the existing route. Only then can it come to our world." "
I and other Tongtian warriors are the guardians of this road, resisting all the domain forces that destroy human civilization from coming to the human world. Therefore, Tongtian Road is also called the first line of defense. We wander on the connecting roads that are constantly being opened up and kill most of the domain forces that want to invade the human world."
Hearing Tianshu's answer, Feng Qi finally knew that his original guess was correct.
But he still had many doubts in his heart.
Thinking of this, he continued to ask:
"But I can't understand, the human world has been invaded like this, but you are still blocking the invasion of the domain forces. Why don't you come back to build human civilization together and resist the invasion of the domain forces into major cities together."
Tianshu couldn't help shaking his head after hearing this:
"You think too simply. Tongtian Road is the source of the invasion of the human world by the domain forces. If the source is not blocked, there will be more domain forces entering the human world. The human world is so big. Compared with wandering around the world and hunting, it is obviously easier to solve it from the source. If it weren't for the bloody battles of the Tongtian warriors, the situation of the human world would be much worse than it is now."
Tianshu's explanation solved a problem that had troubled Fengqi for a long time.
He had thought about it at the beginning.
If the blockers on Tongtian Road were humans, why didn't they choose to return to the human world.
They all have the strength to rival the domain forces. With their help, the construction process of human civilization will definitely be accelerated.
But now I think that his way of thinking about the problem is too simple.
Perhaps the Tongtian warriors blocked 80%, even 90%, or even more of the invading forces. If they hadn't blocked the disaster, the challenges faced by mankind can be imagined.
For example, the Mist Clan where the Lord of Mist is.
If there were no Tongtian Warriors to stop them, the entire Mist Clan would descend on the human world, and the destructive power it would bring can be imagined.
The Lord of Mist would be even more terrifying if he was not seriously injured at the beginning and had a group of powerful tribesmen.
He now understood the meaning of Tianshu's words.
Tongtian Road is like a sieve. Although there will still be omissions in the screening process, it is already the method that causes the least harm to human civilization.
If there were no Tongtian Warriors, perhaps there would not even be a human safety line in the five major cities now.
"In fact, we have tried our best to stop the invasion of domain forces, but there will still be domain forces that open up a new road in places we are not aware of, and then enter the human world."
At this point, Tianshu couldn't help but sigh:
"We have also thought about this, and finally made a decision. All descendants who grew up on Tongtian Road will be sent back to the human world after they reach the age of 16 to help humans fight against domain creatures, and then return to become Tongtian Warriors when they are strong enough."
"Lv Yue?" Mu Qing exclaimed softly at this time.
Feng Qi nodded at this time:
"That's right, it seems that Lu Yue is from Tongtian Road. Although he was not born in Tongtian Road, he grew up in Tongtian Road. His strength may seem very strong to us, but it is obviously unrealistic to want to fight against the vicious forces from all sides in the more dangerous Tongtian Road. Being sent back to the human world can be regarded as a kind of growth experience, but his final destination will still be back to Tongtian Road."
"You are right, when they have enough strength, the old woman will find them and bring them back to Tongtian Road." Tianshu nodded.
"Can't you go there by yourself?"
"It's easy to come back, but it's hard to go to Tongtian Road. Only old women have the ability to travel freely... But from what you said, it seems that you have a friend from Tongtian Road, and he didn't tell you the truth."
"Yes, but he is a riddle man and never talks to me much about Tongtian Road."
"It's not his fault. Not being able to convey any information about Tongtian Road to the human world is the first rule for every child born in Tongtian Road or raised in Tongtian Road to go to the human world."
Feng Qi heard it and nodded:
"I roughly understand what's going on. They should be afraid that the news about Tongtian Road will be known to the outside world, which will cause great panic. If they know that the challenges facing mankind are far more than they imagined, perhaps a large number of humans will become pessimistic about the future and give up on themselves."
"After all, hope is the driving force for progress. Being in the dark is not despair. Knowing that you are in the dark is the real despair."
Hearing this, Tianshu showed an unexpected expression on his face:
"As you said, this is why we made these rules in the first place."
Hearing this, Feng Qi smiled instead.
After exploring so many timelines, his worldview was overturned several times. He found that the world he had seen before was not the truth at all. The invisible dark side hides too much darkness and despair.
But fortunately, he also found that there are latent human forces that have not given up and are still trying to find a ray of hope for the future of mankind.
At this time, knowing that there is still a group of powerful human beings on the road to heaven, he is relieved.
This road to salvation is accompanied by darkness and light, and it is not completely dark.
There are many hidden companions.
Perhaps they are in different places, but they have not given up human civilization, nor have they chosen to compromise with fate.
"Tianshu, continue with your experience of why you lost control."
Tianshu nodded and continued:
"At that time, I was taken to Tongtian Road by Mu Xuan. Tongtian Road is like a spider web, with various routes crisscrossed and connected. I was assigned to the team guarding the main route No. 32, and was responsible for the inspection of nearby branch routes." " It was not until I
went to Tongtian Road that I realized how cruel the battles there were."
"Among the domain forces that entered Tongtian Road, there are many tribes that are willing to risk the lives of their entire clan to enter the human world for hope for the future. They are extremely crazy to pass the level, and every battle is a fight to the death."
"The teammates around me changed batch after batch during that time. If I hadn't had the blessing of the divine pattern, I think I would have died there. During this period, there were always new team members sent to Tongtian Road by Mu Xuan and became our comrades-in-arms."
"I also grew rapidly in the constant battles. The divine pattern absorbed and analyzed the blood of a large number of domain creatures, allowing me to gain many powerful domain creature abilities. These simulation abilities are my important strength against domain creatures."
At this point, an expression of reminiscence emerged on Tianshu's face.
After a long silence, he continued:
"When I was the loneliest, I was the only one guarding the main road No. 32, and all the other comrades died in the battle... Maybe the old woman knew that I was capable of guarding a main road, so she stopped transporting soldiers to Route 32."
"At that time, I would often wander around the newly opened routes nearby. I was alone for nearly 30 years. During that time, I was extremely lonely. I killed nothing but killing. I can't remember how many domain creatures I killed so far."
"When I was guarding the main road No. 32, it was normal for me to be seriously injured, but I still relied on the powerful recovery ability given by the divine pattern to survive again and again."
Hearing this, Feng Qi analyzed one thing.
Tongtian Road seems to be very large. Tongtian warriors mainly guard the main road and are responsible for wandering and checking nearby branch roads.
"Will the constant killing make you confused?" He asked curiously at this time.
"As long as there is a firm goal in my heart, I won't feel confused, but the feeling of loneliness is real. When I was the most bored, I even chatted with domain life."
"Then what?" Feng Qi asked.
"Of course we killed them. Would we leave them to harm human civilization?"
Feng Qi: ...
Mu Qing: ...
"So, although you are in Tongtian Road, you have little contact with other Tongtian warriors?"
Tianshu heard and nodded;
"In fact, there is a platform in Tongtian Road, which is the gathering point for our Tongtian warriors. The seriously injured soldiers after the war will be sent there for treatment. Every soldier guarding the main road will occasionally have a break to go there to rest and recuperate, but I am an exception."
"The old woman, this bastard, let me guard the main road No. 32 alone. No one came to replace me. I can't leave at all!"
Looking at Tianshu with a face full of resentment, Feng Qi suddenly understood why he had such a deep resentment towards Mu Xuan since he was brought up by Mu Xuan.
Before, he was still thinking that since Tianshu was brought up by Mu Xuan, it stands to reason that he has a deep affection for Mu Xuan, and it is not an exaggeration to regard him as a relative.
Now it seems that Tianshu was completely dragged into the pirate ship by Mu Xuan and became a glorious human worker.
No wonder he kept referring to Mu Qing as "old woman".
"Actually, I understand the old woman's idea. Just as she said before she brought me to Main Road 32, I already have the ability to fight on my own, and it's time to take responsibility."
"With great power comes great responsibility." Feng Qi nodded.
"But that doesn't stop me from hating her!"
"Maybe you'll miss her too." Mu Qing suddenly interrupted.
"No, I just want to punch her in the face." Tian Shu denied it immediately.
After a chat, the atmosphere eased a lot, and the strangeness faded.
Tianshu continued to tell his own experience:
"During the time when I was guarding Route 32, I was always under great pressure, so I was extremely eager to become powerful. During that time, I kept absorbing and analyzing the blood of domain creatures to gain abilities to make myself stronger."
"Until one time, after a great war, I destroyed a domain tribe. When I was searching for relics, I found a drop of blood stored in a jade box. This was a drop of blood from the Pillar God. I could feel the huge energy and endless knowledge of rules contained in that drop of blood, which was extremely similar to the power of the Pillar God described by the old woman."
"The old woman once reminded me that the abilities granted by the divine pattern have limits, and I must not try to analyze the blood of terrifying creatures that make me feel palpitations. Palpitations are the feedback from the divine pattern, proving that I can't digest it."
"But facing this drop of blood containing terrifying power, I was still moved."
"I struggled for a while for this, but in the end, the desire for power overcame the fear in my heart, and I chose to swallow that drop of blood."
"When the blood of the Pillar God entered my body, my blood seemed to be ignited by flames and became extremely hot... At that time, I even thought I was going to die."
"During that time, a lot of knowledge about the rules of the world was instilled into my mind, and I couldn't understand these distorted symbols and knowledge at all, and they became more and more, and eventually I fell into a coma."
"When I woke up, I found that my strength had been greatly improved, and my perception of the outside world became particularly clear. I could even feel the subtle changes in the outside world while breathing."
"At that time, I thought I had succeeded, until I suddenly fell into a state of madness, and then I realized that I was not successful, but failed, and the price was that I fell into madness from time to time and became completely uncontrollable."
"Fortunately, I was the only one on the main road No. 32 during that time, so I didn't need to worry about affecting my comrades."
"Uncle Tianshu, what you call uncontrollable is emotional loss of control, or other symptoms?" Mu Qing asked curiously at this time.
"It's not emotional loss of control, it's a momentary loss of consciousness, the body will enter an instinctive bloodthirsty state, perhaps this is also related to the fact that I have integrated a lot of domain biological abilities. In short, I couldn't decide my own behavior at that time."
Hearing this, Feng Qi couldn't help but look at Mu Qing.
In contrast, Mu Qing was just emotionally out of control, which was completely different from the unconscious state mentioned by Tianshu.
Tianshu continued to narrate at this time:
"I'm sure you must be very curious about why I, who was supposed to be guarding Main Road No. 32, returned to the human world."
"It was all an accident. During the time I was guarding No. 32, I never let any domain creatures pass through. All the domain creatures that entered Main Road No. 32 were paved with a road of bones by my killing."
At this point, Tianshu paused briefly, and then continued:
"Until I encountered an extremely difficult domain tribe. They were extremely powerful and I had a hard time dealing with them. After a hard battle, I finally killed most of the tribe members, but several domain creatures escaped my obstruction under the cover of the tribe members and ran to the end of Main Road No. 32."
"This was my first mistake. I was anxious and decisively chased them at that time. I thought that if I didn't catch them in the end, it would be fine. I could only leave these disasters to the warriors in the human world."
"But at that time, I went out of control, and finally chased the remaining domain creatures through the world barrier and returned to the human world."
"They all died in the end, but I couldn't go back."
"Shouldn't you go find Mu? She can definitely send you back to Tongtian Road, and even help you solve the hidden dangers in your body."
Feng Qi asked immediately.
"I looked for her, but I couldn't find any trace of her at all, and she never came to find me."
"I am undoubtedly a time bomb in the human world, especially when I am in the city. I am out of control and cannot be resisted by the human combat power at that time."
Hearing this, Feng Qi understood the detailed reasons why Tianshu chose to seal himself.
As Tianshu said at the beginning, all this was forced.
But at this time, he still had many doubts in his heart that needed Tianshu to answer for him.
I updated late today. I was having dinner with my girlfriend's parents.
