This pattern persisted until the end of the Shang Dynasty.
After a thousand years of separation between heaven and earth, the Celestial Race discovered that without the foundation of the human race, their cultivation could no longer advance even half a step.
However, due to the oath he made with the Human Emperor, he could not return directly to rule the human race again.
So they came up with the idea of finding a spokesperson among humans.
Until the end of the Shang Dynasty, the Western Zhou Dynasty, secretly supported by the Celestial Tribe, began to rise and, representing the Heavenly Court, began to attack Emperor Xin.
However, the Western Zhou was ultimately just a vassal state, and when faced with the Shang army representing the human race, it was repeatedly defeated.
Seeing their scheme thwarted, the Celestial Race had no choice but to send their most outstanding talents to participate in the human race's civil war.
Emperor Xin was furious after discovering the conspiracy of the Celestial Clan.
With the mindset of "better to die a glorious death than live a shameful life," they led the great cultivators of the human race to launch a renewed war against the Heavenly Court.
Compared to the war between the gods and humans a thousand years ago, the second war between the gods and humans was even more brutal.
Both the great cultivators of the human race and the powerful beings of the celestial race perished in this battle.
Even Di Xin was seriously injured in the battle with the Heavenly Emperor, and his cultivation foundation was severed.
In the final battle, in order to eliminate the threat to the human race forever, Di Xin used the Emperor Xuanyuan Sword to drain the spiritual energy of the Qinling Divine Vein, the primordial vein of the human race. Just as he had done to another race, he used the Emperor's fortune to completely seal the Celestial Race under the Qinling Divine Vein.
But the price paid was the depletion of spiritual energy in the human world, leaving no cultivators left.
Furthermore, Emperor Xin had to use his human emperor body as the core of the formation to suppress the Heavenly Gods.
Otherwise, the Celestial Race could break the seal at any time and make a comeback.
After losing its emperor, the Shang dynasty was quickly defeated by the Western Zhou army.
The rulers of the Western Zhou Dynasty believed that the gods had helped them seize the world, so they began to proclaim themselves as the Son of Heaven.
As the king of the Shang Dynasty and the emperor of the human race, Emperor Xin could only guard the Qinling Mountains and watch the Shang Dynasty perish.
A thousand years later, in the midst of war, Emperor Xin's injuries and illnesses flared up completely, and he was about to die.
As the aura of the Human Emperor gradually weakened, the seals on the alien races and the Celestial race loosened once again.
Left with no other choice, Di Xin could only lure Bai Qi, the contemporary killing god of the human race, deep into the Qinling Mountains, using Bai Qi's killing intent to suppress the seal of his clan.
He himself was searching for the successor to the next emperor as he was about to perish.
Until Qin Shi Huang unified the country and ended the chaotic era.
Di Xin knew that the person he was waiting for had arrived.
Ultimately, on the recommendation of the great human sage Guiguzi Wang Xu, Ying Zheng, who was about to die of illness in Shaqiu, officially succeeded Di Xin as emperor.
Di Xin then used the remains of the human emperor to reinforce the seal on the Celestial Gods.
Ying Zheng did not disappoint Di Xin. After officially assuming the throne, he summoned all the generals of Qin to the Qinling Mountains to guard the seal of the most powerful clan.
The Xuan Bird Guard, who protects the Ying clan, was also summoned deep into the Qinling Mountains, making it a nationwide effort to guard the seal of the alien race.
However, this move also depleted the foundation of the Qin Empire.
The price paid was that the Qin Dynasty was overthrown by the remnants of the six former states and perished after only two generations.
Like Emperor Xin, Ying Zheng was forever unable to leave the Qinling Mountains.
However, human nature is greedy.
After losing the suppression of the Human Emperor, the human race began an endless internal struggle.
From the overthrow of the Western Han dynasty by Wang Mang, to the fragmentation of the Eastern Han dynasty by warlords, and even to the Second World War, humanity has been constantly engaged in internal strife.
Shen Lang quietly observed the development of human history without making any changes.
Even though he could manipulate history at will, he chose not to interfere.
History is what has already happened.
Because of history, there is the present.
If history were to change, things could very well turn out uncontrollably.
Even Shen Lang couldn't guarantee that he could put history back on track.
"Let's see what the future holds."
After a slight wave, everything that would happen on Earth in the future appeared before Shen Lang's eyes.
With Luo Fei's intervention, the awakening of the sea monsters, originally scheduled for seven years later, was delayed to ten years later.
However, ten years later, as the sea monsters awakened, spiritual energy began to revive.
After absorbing the spiritual energy, the sea beasts became even more powerful, beyond human control. Coastal countries and regions suffered heavy casualties, and some small countries were directly wiped out by the sea beasts.
Fortunately, marine mammals need seawater to survive. Even when they come ashore, they can only move within a limited area.
Left with no other choice, the human race completely abandoned the defense of the coastline, ceding the coastal areas to the sea monsters.
A century after the revival of spiritual energy, the alien race officially broke the seal.
Ying Zheng also led his generals Bai Qi and others to engage in a direct battle with the Celestial Race, and the war between the human race and the alien races began in full swing.
"No, shouldn't the troublemakers have helped the alien races break the seal when spiritual energy was reviving?"
Why did the alien races only emerge a century later? Has history changed?
Looking at the future that didn't match Luo Fei's memories, Shen Lang immediately felt that something was wrong.
The little sprite reminded him, "Master, the troublemakers have disappeared. In the future predicted by the river of time, no troublemakers will appear."
Shen Lang also realized this.
"Could it be that Luo Fei's rebirth triggered a butterfly effect, thus changing the future?"
With this in mind, Shen Lang tried to erase Luo Fei from history.
Soon, history repeated itself.
Without Luo Fei's rebirth, the sea monsters revived as expected. After the humans dealt with the sea monsters, the alien races broke the seal.
By seizing upon the fact that the alien race had broken the seal, Shen Lang found the 'troublemaker' in Luo Fei's memories.
But when he saw the true face of the 'troublemaker', Shen Lang was stunned.
The scourge that was condemned by billions of people was none other than himself.
It was Shen Lang who broke through the divine dragon frame guarded by Li Xin and released the Heavenly Eye Clan from the alternate dimension.
"Holy crap, it's me?!"
Not only Shen Lang, but even the little elf looked at Shen Lang in the picture in disbelief.
"Master, so you are the 'traitor'!"
To find out the reason, Shen Lang turned back time in his own life.
In the original timeline, Shen Lang did not obtain the Time-Space Source Jade, nor did he go into seclusion.
After developing Michelle into a Europa ambassador, Shen Lang's strength grew rapidly.
However, while Shen Lang was engrossed in improving his strength, the Otherworldly Soul Sect, hidden deep within the Ten Thousand Mountains, suddenly emerged.
It turns out that the Otherworldly Soul Sect discovered that the brothers Ge Yun and Ge Yu were being controlled by Zhao Wuji, so they turned their attention to Baiyun Manor and Qingyun Mountain.
However, they discovered that everyone in Baiyun Manor and Qingyun Mountain was a cultivator, and the Yihun Sect had no way to deal with them.
But they soon found a way to get revenge on Shen Lang.
