The cemetery of the gods is deserted and silent.
The purest breath of death lingered in the cemetery, and the gray-brown wind roared wildly in the cemetery, consuming the soul. Cao An could feel like there were sharp thorns in the sea of consciousness just standing on the edge. As if stabbed, there are no magnificent buildings in the cemetery. A soil bag, a monument, and the weapons used by it are inserted into the ground in front of the monument.
At a glance, none of them are intact, and almost all of them have been eroded to pieces. Some even have only a pile of debris in the brown soil. The wind in the cemetery cannot blow them, so that they have always been there. They retain the appearance of being scattered to the ground after being eroded by decay.
This is less like a cemetery of the gods and more like a mass grave.
Cao An took a step forward and stepped on the soil of the cemetery. A strong discomfort swept through his body. He suddenly felt creepy and goosebumps appeared all over his body, as if what he was facing was not some land, but the most filthy and filthy place in the world. , resisting the discomfort and took a few steps forward, the gray-brown wind just blew past him.
Scratched Cao An.
boom! !
With almost no hesitation, Cao An exerted force with his feet, and the power of heaven and earth surged. The powerful force sent him directly out of the cemetery. He lowered his head and looked at his hands, which had just been blown by the gray-brown wind. Below the wrists, they are basically the hands of two people. Above the wrists, they are white and delicate, with full flesh and blood, but the palms are as skinny as claws, with wrinkled brown skin covering the bones inside.
"Did you just step inside?" At some point, Chi Ao had already arrived at Cao An's side. He saw the look of Cao An's hands at a glance, and there was some anxiety and joy in his words.
"I just entered it for a while and was blown by the gray-brown wind."
"I forgot to tell you that you cannot enter the cemetery. It is the wind of death, a wind that is too powerful to surpass our own. Fortunately, you were only blown on your hands. If you were blown to the body by that wind, You will die in an instant, feel it for yourself, how many years of life will this blow away from you?"
Cao An's face was calm, the power of heaven and earth was moving, his hands became full at a speed visible to the naked eye, and returned to their previous appearance. Then he said: "It is about fifty years of life. It cannot be sensed specifically. It is only based on the loss of vitality and Let’s make an estimate based on the maximum lifespan in my current realm.”
Chi Ao breathed a long sigh of relief, "It's already very good. When I stepped here, I was just like you. I thought that this cemetery was the final destination of the gods of civilization, and there should be something left behind. I never thought that I would be penetrated by the wind of death, and I tried my best to break free and get such a sword and part of the inheritance."
When Chi Ao recalled it, the fear in his eyes was still there, "That time, it blew away my entire ten thousand years of life. If Chi's family had not been born with a long lifespan, I would have died directly. Become nourishment for this brown land.”
Cao An looked at the wind of death that was spreading almost seamlessly in the cemetery, and for a moment he felt dizzy.
The only place where information and answers might be hidden is now a dead end, you can only look at it but not touch it.
Chi Ao glanced at Cao An strangely, "Chi Ao, I see that you have deep roots and huge potential, and your aura is far better than any monks of the same realm as you that Chi Ao has seen. Logically speaking, there should be no shortage of inherited techniques and treasures. You must have Go in?"
Cao An shook his head, "Fellow Taoist is wrong. Pindao wants to go in not for inheritance and treasures, but to explore the reasons for the collapse of previous civilizations. This is the fundamental purpose, but Pindao also knows that he wants to get the answer directly from here." It is impossible, but it is necessary to know more about the secrets and contents. Now, I still know nothing about the information buried in the faults of history."
"Chi believes you because you are very similar to a person Chi has met before."
Cao An turned around and looked at Chi Ao, "A person you met before? What's his name?"
"Si Daowen, that's what he said. It should be his real name."
"Has he been to the cemetery too?"
"I have been here. I was next to him at the time. We discussed Taoism in this dojo for ten days. According to your human race's calculation of time, it should be ten days. Then we came here together. He should have a treasure on him. He suffered three winds of death and dug up one of his graves before leaving. However, judging from his state, the treasure did not seem to have completely blocked him. He must have been affected. The exact number of lifespans he lost is unknown. "
Cao An raised his eyebrows and thought about the treasures on his body. For the first time, he felt that he should get some magic weapons for self-protection?
"Do you know this Si Daowen?"
"I don't know him. To you, he just came here not long ago, but to us humans, the interval of hundreds of years is just a matter of generations. He is already considered a historical figure, but I have heard According to his legend, he has been searching for the answer to the catastrophe all his life, and has been running around in various secret places with the goal of saving the world."
"Friend Equator has been living here. Can you tell me something about the civilization period of the gods?"
Chi Ao nodded, "Actually, I don't know much. I only know that during the civilization period of the gods, there were two opposing races, one was the gods and the other was the demons. The two races were natural enemies, and they were both innately strong. The resource that the two races compete for for survival and development is the human race."
"Human race?"
"Yes, faith is necessary for the survival and development of the gods and demons. I don't know the specific situation here. I only know that faith is crucial to them, but the two races are completely opposite to humans. In this attitude, the gods focus on protection and control, while the demons focus on captivity."
Cao An curled his lips, "Actually, they are almost the same. The only difference is that the demons may be more indifferent to human lives."
"That's right. In fact, in the long civilization of the gods, there has been a dispute between the two major races. The human race has a bad impression of the demon race, so that in this era, only the gods are mentioned, and there is no demon race. This is the general situation."
"How did two such powerful races end up destroyed in the end?" Cao An heard it. In this civilization, the human race is not the protagonist of the world. At best, it is just the resources raised by the two major races.
"I don't know. There are two speculations. One is a war of genocide caused by the hatred between the two races. The other speculation is the catastrophe you mentioned. In this speculation, the two races even formed a unity in the end. But in the end, it still failed to prevent the destruction." Chi Ao said calmly, and from his words, Cao An also knew that he was actually leaning towards the second guess.
"What exactly is the great catastrophe?"
"I don't know, I really don't know. Civilization has been broken, and everything has to start over again. No records of the catastrophe can be preserved. It is also possible that the predecessors have actually given us subtle hints. It’s just that we haven’t been able to understand it ourselves.”
Cao An's eyes stayed in the cemetery and shook his head. The current cemetery was not something he could covet. There was almost no gap in the wind of death. No one knew where it would suddenly start. He didn't have Chi Ao's tens of thousands of years. Lifespan, not to mention the protection of a treasure like Si Daowen.
If it were just the situation he was seeing now, with his strength, after learning how terrifying the wind of death was, he could actually avoid it. But according to Chi Ao, this wind of death was nothing but what he saw in front of him. In addition to these, they are randomly derived all the time.
There are no signs and no rules. If you want to die, you can actually find another way.
"Let's go!"
"Don't watch it?"
"I don't want to die yet." Cao An replied with a smile.
The two of them got off the cemetery and returned to the main hall, "By the way, do you know where Senior Si Daowen went afterwards?"
"I really don't know how I can take care of his affairs. It's just that being in the Black Sea, practicing alone is boring after all. Find some like-minded people, exchange experiences, and sit down and talk about it. It can help you improve your strength. After our exchange, Just left after coming down from the cemetery.”
"The Black Sea is a little depressed."
"depression??"
Cao An nodded, "I haven't seen many powerful creatures along the way. The only big demon I've seen is you, Chi Daoyou."
Chi Ao smiled and said, "Then you are underestimating the Black Sea. No matter how bad the environment is, there will always be creatures. Do you know that as far as I know, there are seven demon kingdoms in the Black Sea. We The location we are in now belongs to the territory of the ancient Ao Yao Kingdom."
"Demon country?"
"The human race has human kingdoms, and the monster clan also has monster kingdoms, such as the Yaksha Kingdom, the Ten Thousand Jiao Kingdom, the Thousand Hands Kingdom, etc., just like the Da Yin, the Central Empire, and the Xuan Kingdom among your human clan."
Cao An's eyes lit up, "Do you have a map?"
"Now, I give it to you for free, lest you have no knowledge, underestimate the strength of my Black Sea, die miserably in the deep sea where there are many monsters, and become the blood food of other monsters. The overall strength of the Black Sea is better than that of your human race. The Four Elephants China is even stronger. When the Baili family underestimated the power of the Black Sea in order to open up sea routes, they suffered some blows and were almost exterminated."
"In the end, it was the Central Empire that came forward to mediate, and the Baili family negotiated with the countries that the sea route passed through, and after some interests were divided, it became as strong as it is now."
Cao An remained silent, feeling that everything was unexpected and reasonable.
When I first heard about the Baili family's deeds, I felt that it was powerful, but I didn't know that there were so many entangled interests. Looking at the map made of the skin of an unknown monster, my heart gradually Calm down.
"Friends Equator, I have a question, please clarify it."
"But it doesn't matter!"
"In the Black Sea, there are many crises, abnormal energy, and even space chaos. How did the demon clan establish a country? I see that on this map, the territories of the demon kingdoms are fixed. Do you already have one? Is there no solution to these crises?”
Chi Ao had a bitter look on his face, "After all, the danger is only temporary, and the survival of the race is long-term. The crisis you think is terrible, compared to a demon country, is more like killing and injuring some people. When your race is in Live in a dangerous place long enough and you get used to the dangers..."
