Chapter 598: Leaving the Cradle of Civilization
Time in the Mountain and Sea Realm is not very valuable to the people of the Mountain and Sea Realm who are generally immortal.
However, perhaps it is precisely because of the unique concepts of the Immortal Race that there have been no eye-catching new changes in the Mountain and Sea Realm for a long time.
Civilization seems to have stagnated, and culture has no new ideas...
In the normal development of civilization, several hundred years is considered a very long time for iteration.
Over thousands of years, wave after wave of ideas will emerge, leading the entire civilization to transform.
Call it the Renaissance or the Enlightenment.
Civilization is constantly renewed in the waves of thought, rising in a contradictory spiral.
This is the cyclical law of history and also the ascending ladder of civilization.
However, this cyclical law and ascending ladder showed a strange "stagnation" phenomenon when it came to the mountain and sea civilization.
For a long time, the Shanhai civilization has not had any new things or new ideas that could change the entire civilization.
It is as if the Shanhai civilization has reached the limit of its own civilization and fully tapped its own civilizational potential.
But this is where the problem arises.
Has the Shanhai Civilization really tapped into its full potential? You know, the Shanhai Civilization is not a civilization composed of a single race.
Within the mountain and sea civilization, the hundreds of mountain and sea tribes each have their own characteristics and magic, and their perspectives on things and the world are also very different.
Theoretically speaking, even without communicating with external civilizations, the Shanhai Civilization has the potential to be promoted to a god-level civilization.
Not to mention, on the huge stage built by the Creator Li Hao, the Shanhai civilization has never cut off communication with the outside world.
So, why did the Shanhai civilization experience this strange phenomenon of civilization stagnation?
After hundreds of years of research and discussion, many knowledgeable people have come to a common conclusion - a sense of crisis.
Ever since the hundreds of tribes in the mountains and seas were integrated into a new civilization, the people of the mountains and seas have not encountered any event that could cause them as a whole to feel a sense of crisis for a long time.
The internal war has long ceased...
The chaos in the outside world rarely affects the Mountain and Sea Realm itself...
Even if Tianyou had foresight and used the oppression brought by the God-Slayer civilization to forcibly organize a "peacekeeping combat force", it would only cause a few ripples on the calm sea.
——Since the older generation has become accustomed to this peaceful daily life, let the new generation change the world! When Tianyou made such a public declaration in [Shanhai Network], it immediately set off a storm within Shanghai Civilization.
It was also from this day that the Shanhai civilization completely ended its previous semi-closed state.
No longer sheltered under the wings of the Creator, nor transiting through the Glorious Realm to other worlds...
The [City in the Sky], which the Shanhai Civilization had spent tens of thousands of years to successfully build, was finally born.
It is not an accidental, unrepeatable miracle, but an industrial product that can be quantified and produced at industrial standards.
When those [Cities in the Sky] flew out of the world barrier of the Mountains and Seas and passed through the vortex of time and space set up by the Creator, the Mountain and Sea civilization truly stepped out of the "cradle".
It is no exaggeration to say that Tianyou's declaration allowed the Shanhai civilization to bid farewell to the old era and enter the new century.
One after another, magnificent [Cities in the Sky] shuttled through the chaos of the [Ascension Zone]...
People from different races in the mountains and seas explore the rules and civilizations of different worlds...
The Shanhai Civilization, which had completely stepped out of the "Cradle of Civilization", arrived in dozens of different worlds in just less than a few hundred years.
If we ignore the quality, the exploration results of the Shanhai civilization over the past few hundred years are enough to offset the accumulation of tens of thousands of years before that.
The most important thing is that the Shanhai Civilization did not rely on the power of the Creator, nor did it use the Glorious Realm as a transit point. It was exploring the unknown world with its own strength.
Although the people of mountains and seas encountered countless maliciousness and paid huge sacrifices in this process, they showed an amazing resilience.
Mountain and sea civilizations have never been afraid of hardships or sacrifices. What they fear is that their hardships and sacrifices are meaningless.
Stepping out of the cradle of civilization and leaving the protection of the Creator...
The mountain and sea civilization used their courage and strength to tell Li Hao that they have truly grown up.
Even if they were separated from the civilization chain that Li Hao had specially created for them, and from those worlds blessed by the Creator, the mountain and sea civilization could still take root in a completely unfamiliar world.
Of course, the Shanhai civilization is only growing, not completely abandoning its belief in the Creator.
Therefore, the areas that the Shanhai Civilization is exploring are basically centered around the worlds that the Creator is watching.
Malz World, Godfall World, Light World, Pandora World, Life World, Mithra World, Heaven World, and the Mountain and Sea World itself...
The footprints of mountain and sea civilization are all over the areas where these worlds are located, and it is still constantly exploring and expanding outward with these as the center.
As time goes by, the exploration area expands...
Those [Cities in the Sky] that travel between the worlds also brought ample feedback to the Mountain and Sea Realm.
No longer observing from the perspective of a bystander, but in-depth communication with creatures and civilizations in other worlds.
This kind of exchange is different from the unilateral war model of "peacekeeping combat forces", but is more of an exchange in terms of resources, economy, politics, and even cultural ideas.
It is undeniable that communication between different worlds and civilizations is bound to be full of contradictions.
It was a very common phenomenon for Shanhai civilizations to encounter misunderstanding and war in the process of external exploration.
Often at this time, the strength and cultural heritage accumulated by the mountain and sea civilization in the "cradle stage" became their trump card that enabled them to overcome danger and escape crisis time and time again.
Even if facing gods directly, the [Sky City] built by the Mountain and Sea Civilization can escape unscathed.
This is not some groundless conjecture, but a truth that has been proven time and again by the Shanhai Civilization with iron-clad facts.
When the people of mountains and seas travel through chaos and wander in the [Ascension Zone], they will inevitably attract the comments of those lost gods and evil gods.
The former can at least communicate through exchanges, but the latter is coming for the mountain and sea civilization itself.
Those evil gods either want to plunder the faith or want to usurp the throne. Without exception, they are impossible to communicate with.
Not to mention, the real dangers in the [Ascension Zone] are not just those unspeakable evil gods.
The chaos that has lost its order is itself an inevitable natural disaster.
It was only after the people of the mountains and seas sacrificed countless [Sky Cities] that they gradually discovered some safe routes and established a series of emergency regulations for when facing crises.
