Chapter 318: Forgotten History
Outside Shanhaiguan, Yuan Zidan held the sacred artifact Poseidon Halberd and looked at Shanhaiguan with a nostalgic look on his face.
actually……
This was also his first time to visit Shanhaiguan, and he had only seen descriptions of Shanhaiguan in the ancient books of his family.
The King of Zhenhai is the strongest of the four kings. Although his name is Zhenhai, he actually has the ability to control mountains and seas.
But his ancestor, the last King Zhenhai, as the strongest among the four kings, was the first to die.
After the death of King Zhenhai, the other three kings united together, drove King Zhenhai's clan out to sea, and made a covenant that would last for a hundred generations.
The bloodline of King Zhenhai can return to China only after a hundred generations, otherwise the three kings will attack it together.
The Yuan family went overseas with the humiliation of being expelled. The Yuan ancestors also drew sea charts, always keeping in mind that one day they would return to China and revive the glory of the King of the Sea.
Far away from China, they discovered a piece of land with a pleasant climate and abundant spiritual energy.
There are countless spiritual beasts and spiritual medicines, but no trace of human beings.
This is truly a blessed land sent by God. Looking down from the sky, the land looks like a green dragon extending its claws.
Qinglong was originally the holy spirit worshipped by the Yuan family. The Yuan family regarded this place as a treasure land bestowed by Qinglong and named it Qinglong Island.
The Yuan family settled down here. There were several affiliated families of the Yuan family who went out to sea together at the beginning. After taking root, several families multiplied and intermarried on this land.
Yuan always remembered the promise to return home after a hundred generations, and she worked hard to have children and practice diligently, hoping to return to China one day.
Although such a blessed land is rich in resources and full of spiritual energy, the monks there will inexplicably die young.
Generally speaking, cultivators who have entered the stage of transcendence can live for four hundred years, but on Qinglong Island, such cultivators can only live for two hundred years at most, and many die at the age of one hundred and fifty.
By the time the Yuan ancestors realized something was wrong, they had already lived on the island for hundreds of years.
There must be something wrong with this island. They tried to leave Qinglong Island, but found that cultivators below the Zhitian Realm would be like fish out of water, unable to breathe if they left a certain range of the island. They could only survive on the island.
Perhaps, this island is not a paradise, but a cursed place.
There was another theory at the time, which said that the King of Zhenhai must have committed some serious mistake, so the Azure Dragon brought down punishment, and the other three kings joined forces to expel the King of Zhenhai's lineage.
A large number of Yuan clan members also believe this statement.
If the ancestors committed unforgivable crimes, they would be punished by heaven, and their descendants would live under the curse.
There are also more Yuan clan members who think that it is just a problem with this island. Otherwise, why would a cultivator without Yuan blood also die young? Moreover, the descendants of the Yuan clan know the character of the Zhenhai King better. He will never commit a crime that will be punished by heaven.
The right and wrong could no longer be determined at this point. Each side held their own opinion and no longer had the will to work together to fight back. Instead, they began to fight among themselves.
Where there are people, there is the world of martial arts, and the Yuan family has become the enemy of other families.
After a hundred years of recuperation, and with the abundant spiritual energy in this place, it seemed that there was no bottleneck in their cultivation breakthroughs. Several affiliated families united and were able to compete with the Yuan family.
The Yuan family also split into two parts and was no longer able to compete with other families.
As time went by, the Yuan family remained strong and continued to reproduce. Thousands of years passed in a flash, but after a hundred generations, the owners of Qinglong Island were no longer members of the Yuan family. In other words, after thousands of years of reproduction, everyone was of the same clan.
The lineage of King Zhenhai has experienced ups and downs, but has never been cut off. All the people on Qinglong Island abide by this ancestral precept.
Everyone can die, but the king's bloodline must be passed on.
Even if people's hearts have changed, they still remember the glory of King Zhenhai.
To put it more selfishly, through continuous intermarriage and reproduction, the king's bloodline also has a share of his own heritage.
Perhaps it was because the heroic spirit of King Zhenhai was still there, the 106th generation descendant of King Zhenhai rose up strongly. He was incredibly talented and unified Qinglong Island with his own strength. Although he died early, his son was even better than him and even comprehended the Sea King's Halberd Technique from the water-controlling magic passed down by his ancestors.
At this time, everyone remembered their ancestral teachings. Perhaps, in order to break the curse of short lifespan, they had to return to China.
Therefore, the 108th generation grandson Yuan Zidan became the hope of the entire islander.
Qinglong Island, which had been divided for nearly ten thousand years, was united once again.
After practicing for fifty years, Yuan Zidan raised his cultivation to the highest level. He also mastered all the magical powers of his family and even subdued the three sea beasts near Qinglong Island.
This is simply the man of destiny, and so, Yuan Zidan set out with the mission of reviving the Yuan family and restoring the glory of King Zhenhai.
After bidding farewell to his parents, sister, and all his tribesmen, he set out on a journey to the sea alone, heading west. Although he had a nautical chart, it had been so long that the chart was somewhat distorted. After drifting on the sea for a year, he finally saw the legendary Shenzhou.
Moreover, according to ancestral records, Shanhaiguan was inland, but now Shanhaiguan is on the coast.
The world is changing like this.
Yuan Zidan thought he was invincible, but he was defeated in the first battle and fled, and only got one of the three artifacts.
According to the information he had previously asked Bader, Shenzhou is now divided into three parts: the Central Plains human race, the grassland human race, and the southern demon race.
The ones who took away his dragon blood were the grassland people, and the ones who took away his Classic of Mountains and Seas were also the grassland people.
The one holding the gun is the Son of the Grassland God, and the one holding the circle is the Goddess of the Grassland.
So, all his treasures were stolen by the grassland people!
Yuan Zidan was so angry!
As soon as he returned to the sea, he began to stir up winds and waves, using the power of the Poseidon to control the waves to surge upward.
Yuan Zidan wanted to cause trouble for the grassland people, but the landing place happened to be at Shanhaiguan, and he was too lazy to change the route. Shanhaiguan would be taken sooner or later, so he might as well take action now.
"Listen, people in the city. I am the descendant of the King of Zhenhai. I have inherited the will of my ancestors and succeeded to the throne. You can submit to me. If you don't, you can withdraw from Shanhaiguan and return my ancestral land to my Yuan family. I will not commit murder today. You can take care of yourself."
Yuheng and others became solemn when they heard these words.
They could feel that Yuan Zidan's cultivation was not weak, and those hidden sea beasts were even more terrifying. This man could actually control the sea beasts, and they had never heard of him before. It was as if he suddenly jumped out of a stone.
Moreover, he mentioned the King of Zhenhai in a serious manner, but Yuheng and others had never heard of such a title, so he might be talking nonsense.
Or, it means that tens of thousands of years have passed since the time of King Zhenhai.
The oldest era that can be traced back to historical materials today is more than 9,800 years ago. After a war, the rulers at that time destroyed everything related to ancient times, and the population also experienced a major purge.
From then on, history was cut off and no one knew the history of 9,800 years ago. However, some thieves who made a living by tomb robbers dug up some tombs and found some documents, which made people know that ten thousand years ago, people from the Central Plains, grasslands, and monsters should have coexisted in that era.
But why did it split again and what happened in between? This cannot be discovered by digging up the past.
Tombs from ten thousand years ago are rare, and the dead may not record too many things in their tombs. At most, they may record their life stories.
Some people who like to study history will find some texts from these life records to interpret and analyze.
However, the ancient and modern meanings of the text are not consistent, and it is difficult to explain.
Looking at Yuan Zidan's expression, it doesn't seem like he is making things up. If it is true, Yuan Zidan might know something about the history from tens of thousands of years ago.
Yu Heng suddenly became excited and asked, "Are you really the descendant of the King of Zhenhai? Who is the King of Zhenhai, and why have we never heard of him?"
The Taoists at Taiqing Taoist Temple are all archaeology enthusiasts, and their greatest interest is to study everything about the past.
It's not entirely because they are bored, but also because the path to immortality is cut off. Everyone is cultivating immortality, but the end is already there and no one can break through.
A very important thing happened in ancient times. Perhaps this is the reason why the road to immortality was cut off. If we explore the truth of the past, perhaps we can reopen the road to immortality.
What's more, unraveling the mist of history is like lifting up a girl's skirt; the desire to explore is exactly the same.
The difference is that the Taoists at the Taiqing Taoist Temple may not be interested in lifting a girl's skirt.
So now that they were facing a powerful enemy, the old Taoist priests such as Yuheng first asked about the origins of King Zhenhai.
Seeing Yu Heng asking the question, Yuan Zidan immediately said with a haughty face: "I didn't expect that after thousands of years, the people of Shenzhou have actually forgotten their ancestors. So I will be merciful and tell you that the world is divided into four kings. The east of Shanhaiguan is the fief of the King of Zhenhai, the west of Baihu Ridge is the fief of the King of Pingxi, the north of Longhe is the fief of the King of Beidi Gun, and the south of Liusha River is the fief of the King of Zhennan.
These places in between have no master yet. Only the victor of the war can become the master. Do you understand what I mean?"
Wow, there was only one king originally, and now three kings and four kings have appeared. This is a king bomb!
Yu Heng carefully thought about the information contained in it, and suddenly became excited, and said: "What's going on with Wang Zhan? Where were you before? Why did you suddenly appear today?"
Yuan Zidan: “…”
Old Taoist priest, we are fighting, not chatting. Could you be more serious and not so excited?
The old Taoist priests nearby were also very excited, so Yuan Zidan felt embarrassed to take action.
Unlike the monks in Shenzhou, the monks on Qinglong Island age faster. As a young man who respects the elderly and loves the young, he does not want to beat the elderly.
At this moment, Dongfang Hongyue and Lin Yu also stood up, along with a flower fairy.
Yuan Zidan became jealous when he saw the flower fairy. If it weren't for the flower fairy, he would still have a chance to take back the Classic of Mountains and Seas.
Without answering Yu Heng's question, Yuan Zidan raised his halberd and said coldly, "If you don't know, forget it. I don't need to tell you. Are there no men left in your Central Plains? Except for the old men, there are only women. Is there anyone who can fight?"
Dongfang Hongyue was unhappy to hear this and asked coldly: "You look down on women?"
Lin Yu also shared the same hatred for the enemy. In today's cultivation world, the superiors are mostly men, and there are only a few female cultivators, but they are not necessarily weaker than men.
Lin Yu didn't want to waste words with this guy who looked down on women. The only thing he could use to deal with him was the sword in his hand.
"Lin Yu from the Divine Sky Sect, I would like to ask for your advice."
Lin Yu took an ordinary iron sword and stepped forward to challenge.
Yuan Zidan looked at her weapon and confirmed that it was not a divine weapon, and he finally felt much more relieved.
It turns out that not everyone has a magic weapon!
No, perhaps the one who possessed the divine weapon among those people at that time was the king’s descendant.
The immortal in the book said that the person who inherited the power of the four spirits is among them.
The Snow Girl should be a king, so is the Flower Fairy also a king?
Where did the other one go?
No matter what, let’s capture the flower fairy first.
As for Lin Yu, who is not a king, he is not qualified to fight him, but a king cannot avoid a challenge.
So, Yuan Zidan summoned the Deep Sea Seven-Colored Crow.
King versus king, general versus general.
Let his sea beasts deal with Lin Yu!
The waves surged, and a huge tentacle attacked Lin Yu. Lin Yu dodged it easily, but another tentacle came.
Yuan Zidan was too lazy to look over there. He looked at the Flower Fairy and snorted coldly, "You just attacked me by surprise. Do you dare to fight me now?"
The flower fairy looked at the huge tentacle and her heart moved.
The vitality of such a large sea beast was beyond the Flower Fairy's expectation. Killing one would be enough to feed her for half a year!
"Let's fight. Am I afraid of you?"
The Flower Fairy knew that she was taking a risk this time. The opponent also had a magical weapon, and there was a gap between their realms. Her strength on paper was already lagging behind, not to mention that the opponent had other sea beasts and could even control the waves. Now it was his home court.
The Flower Fairy also has a trump card, but her biggest reliance is that she has so many people. In name, it is a one-on-one duel, but if she really cannot win and falls into a disadvantage, will her teammates ignore her?
Lin Yun had been observing silently. Although he was thinking about returning to the grassland and continuing to lurk, on the one hand it was to hide from his wives, and on the other hand it was also to save the Snow Girl.
The previous comments about the Snow Girl by the immortal in the book were also very interesting.
"Ice and snow are as smart as fools, but their minds are the easiest to understand. Marriage arises like clouds following rain, and after the clouds disappear and the rain comes sunshine."
Lin Yun is not a professional fortune teller, but he is good at interpretation. As long as it is not reading comprehension, it is easy to interpret.
This batch of articles should be saying that the Snow Girl looks silly but is actually very smart and her mind is easy to understand.
Marriage comes like clouds and rain, which should mean that it is a natural thing, right?
Generally speaking, clouds and rain have that meaning, and clear skies convey love, which means that the Snow Girl is destined to be his little lover.
Well, there is definitely nothing wrong with this understanding.
As a serious and responsible man, Lin Yun would never allow his lover to be in danger without doing anything about it.
However, although he decided to continue to be undercover beside the Snow Girl, there was a situation here and Lin Yun couldn't leave first.
It wasn't until he saw that the flower fairy also decided to accept the challenge that Lin Yun suddenly felt unwell.
"You said you could turn into a dragon, right?"
Bai Jiaojiao: “…”
So you still want to ride me?
