Chapter 1119 Five Years of Change
Ji Moqing looked at Ben Zhenying and Zhou Wen in shock, almost unable to believe his eyes.
Wu Zonglie and others seemed to be dumbfounded, completely petrified on the spot.
After Ben Zhenying saluted, she stood up, holding her sword and said, "My master has repeatedly told me that if I can see you again, I must perform the etiquette of a disciple."
"It's rare that you still remember me." Zhou Wen nodded slightly.
Ji Moqing, who was standing by, was struck by lightning when she heard their conversation. She immediately understood everything and could not help but step back repeatedly.
She had already realized that Zhou Wen was not someone sent by her brother-in-law, and was most likely a famous overseas devil. Otherwise, how could someone like Ben Zhenying show him such great courtesy and say that the Sword Saint had ordered him to perform the disciple's ceremony.
The person who is so highly respected even by Sword Saint Qi Yasaka is definitely not as simple as he seems. Beneath that youthful appearance, he may very well be an old monster and a big devil who remains eternally youthful.
After figuring everything out, Ji Mojing stepped back repeatedly, wanting to escape immediately.
Zhou Wen did not chase after him, and he did not say anything. Ben Zhenying did not ask anyone to chase after him. Ji Mojing summoned his companion pet, the sea turtle, and quickly left the island.
"Sir, do you want to bring her back?" Ben Zhenying looked at Zhou Wen and asked.
"Why do you want to arrest her?" Zhou Wen asked.
Ben Zhenying explained the whole cause and effect, which involved a lot of information that Zhou Wen was eager to know, and many things were very different from what Zhou Wen had imagined.
Now, only about five years have passed since his battle with Di Tian, which is far from the more than a hundred years that Zhou Wen himself counted.
However, Zhou Wen was certain that he had been trapped for more than a hundred years. After all, it was not easy to endure such a long period of imprisonment.
If Zhou Wen's faith was not as strong as a rock, an ordinary person would have mental problems even if he didn't starve to death.
Although there is nothing wrong with Zhou Wen's mental state, he has spent a lot of time practicing various Qi techniques over the past hundred years. The results he has obtained are not deceptive. They are real benefits that have been obtained, and they are the result of time accumulation and cannot be faked.
Since it is true that Zhou Wen was imprisoned for a hundred years, and it is also true that only five years have passed in reality, then there is only one possibility, that is, Wang Mingyuan used some kind of power to change time to achieve this effect.
Moreover, Zhou Wen did not starve to death during these five years, which in itself is a problem.
Although exchanging five years for the achievements of a hundred years seemed like a big win, the loneliness endured during a hundred years of imprisonment was almost maddening.
Even though Zhou Wen was able to concentrate on studying the Yuan Qi Jue and tried not to think too much, he still almost had mental problems several times.
Zhou Wen really didn't know whether he should thank Wang Mingyuan or beat him up to vent his anger.
During these five years, the Earth has also undergone tremendous changes. Unlike what Zhou Wen had previously thought, the Guardians were not able to occupy the Earth, let alone become the masters of the Earth.
Of course, humans are not the masters of the earth now. In fact, the situation of humans is worse than it was five years ago.
The earth is still changing. As more and more dimensional areas are broken, the space for human survival is getting smaller and smaller.
The living environment of human beings now is exactly the opposite of what it was before. In the past, humans would not be in danger as long as they did not enter the dimensional realm, and only a few dimensional creatures broke the ban.
But now it is completely different. If humans do not enter the dimensional realm, the chances of survival will be much lower.
The earth is full of forbidden dimensional creatures, including mythical and even terrifying ones, and even disaster-level dimensional creatures appear from time to time.
Humans can only enter the dimensional realm and rely on the exclusivity of the dimensional realm to fight against the dimensional creatures that break the ban from other dimensional realms in order to survive.
The dimensional realm that was once regarded as a forbidden land of death by humans has now become the last refuge for mankind.
Of course, dangers still exist within the dimensional realm, but as long as you are familiar with those dangers, you can effectively avoid them. Many humans have already established human forces in various dimensional realms.
In such a harsh environment, the Federation unexpectedly did not completely disappear. However, the current Federation is different from before. It is no longer the era when the six major families controlled everything.
Up to now, no pure-blooded human has broken through to the mythical level by his own strength.
Nowadays, the most common way to be promoted to a myth is to contract with a guardian. Absorbing and fusing guardians is still a very rare way of promotion, because this promotion method has very high requirements for humans themselves, and not everyone has the ability to fuse guardians.
However, in addition to this, another more mature method of promotion appeared two years ago, which is to extract energy from the bodies of dimensional creatures and use it to strengthen the human body in order to achieve the goal of promotion to mythology.
However, this method also has many problems. For example, a mythical creature can only be used to make a mythical liquid, and a mythical liquid can only be provided to one person. Whether this person can be promoted to a myth with the help of the mythical liquid is affected by many factors. The overall success rate is only a few percent, and if it fails, there will be many side effects, or even direct death.
Even if it succeeds, that person's own destiny, soul and wheel of fortune will be affected by the mythical creature.
In other words, the strength of the mythical creatures used to create the mythical liquid determines the strength of this person after he is promoted to the mythical level, and even whether he has the possibility of further advancement in the future.
And just like the Fusion Guardians, humans' genes will mutate, and their appearance will look different from normal humans, with some even becoming completely beastly.
As to whether there will be other hidden dangers in the future, it is still unknown.
However, up to now, most of the mythical strongmen among humans have used this method to advance. A large part of the current federal system relies on the mythical liquid, and the power that controls the mythical liquid is currently the actual ruler of the Senate.
When Zhou Wen heard the name of the creator of the mythical liquid, his expression became strange.
"Hui Haifeng...Federal President..." Zhou Wen silently recited the name. To him, this was a memory from a hundred years ago, so it felt a little strange. Moreover, the connection between these two words deepened Zhou Wen's sense of strangeness.
"Oh my God...what on earth has happened in these five years..." Zhou Wen came back to his senses and groaned in his heart.
What surprised Zhou Wen was more than that. The changes in the past five years were indeed huge. Zhou Wen now wished he could go back to land immediately to see what happened to his relatives and friends.
However, according to Ben Zhenying, the An family is still entrenched in Luoyang. Not only has it not declined, but it has become even stronger.
The An family has operated many dimensional areas in Luoyang and has taken in many refugees who have fled to Luoyang. Now it is one of the few major forces in the East District. Even those in the House of Lords are somewhat wary of the An family.
