Moments later, the ginseng merchant appears in this slice of history.
"That's the incarnation of a great demon."
What the merchant was talking about was obviously the demon that originally occupied this slice of history.
Meng Yuan was a little surprised: "The incarnation of a great demon? What kind of demon is a great demon?"
Shen Shang explained: "Big demons are different from ordinary demons. They often existed in ancient times and have even merged with many characters from ancient times.
"For example, among all demons, the most powerful demon should be Chi You. If we can really break into the historical slices of ancient times, we might have to fight it in the end."
Meng Yuan frowned slightly: "Chi You? But... there is also a saying that he is regarded as one of the three ancestors of China, right?"
The consultant nodded: "Of course, it only exists in the image of Chi You, and is not actually the same existence as the real Chi You in ancient times.
"In ancient times, the battles between Chinese ancestors were passed down in the form of myths. Chi You was later regarded as the god of soldiers, but he was ultimately known to future generations as a loser and an alien.
“So, it’s logical that the demons that entrenched themselves in ancient times appropriated these images and obtained demonic power from these distorted images.
"The situation of other great demons is similar. They basically exist in the image of some gods and demons in ancient times."
Meng Yuan nodded thoughtfully: "That's it."
Although the history of this world is quite different from the history in Meng Yuan's memory, the similarity in ancient mythology is very high, so the names of these ancient gods and demons can be considered familiar.
According to Shang Shang's explanation, these demons are not the original images of real characters such as Chi You, but powerful demons that borrowed the demonized and distorted images of ancient gods and demons such as Chi You and drew strength from them.
"In other words, the one who was entrenched in this historical slice was also a named demon?" Meng Yuan asked.
The consultant nodded: "Well, otherwise it wouldn't have such high intelligence.
“These great demons themselves are powerful and cannot directly reach the current historical slice from ancient times, but they can use incarnations to dedicate part of their power to firmly control the most critical historical slice at each stage.
“It’s like a series of checkpoints, blocking the way forward for those who order.
"It's just that it's not clear yet which big demon this is. Maybe we will encounter it again in the future."
Meng Yuan said: "I understand. In short, let's absorb the power of this slice first."
The ginseng merchant suspended in mid-air, began to draw strength from this historical slice, and continued to open up the path to the ancient times.
Meng Yuan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, this single-player copy has the anchor point of Sheng Taizu, which can directly send players in.
If he still used the old method, he would have to play the role of Taizu Sheng in person, and the painting would be beautiful.
Of course, having said that, the reason why this method can be used is because Sheng Taizu's character characteristics are a special heroic spirit that cannot be tampered with. Demons cannot directly tamper with him, but can only tamper with other people and other things related to the character.
All in all, another level passed safely.
Countless awe-inspiring auras rose from this slice of history and continued to converge into the body of the merchant, continuously strengthening the power of the orderer.
This time, there was no need for Shangshang to touch Meng Yuan, and he could feel the expanding and surging power.
But before he figured out the details of his ability improvement, he first saw the chaotic flow of time and space, and the river of history that continued to trace back to ancient times.
After Sheng Taizu's historical slice was conquered, a chain reaction occurred in all surrounding historical slices.
First of all, other historical slices distributed around this historical slice and belonging to the same dynasty as the Dasheng Dynasty have also been activated one after another and become accessible.
Of course, "activation" is a game-specific term. To be more precise, these historical slices were originally captureable. However, because Sheng Taizu's historical slices were occupied by demons, these historical slices were also affected, and the difficulty of conquering them will increase accordingly.
But now, the big demon entrenched in the historical slice where Sheng Taizu is located has been driven away, and the power of the demons in these other historical slices has also been greatly weakened, so the difficulty has naturally been reduced.
The historical slices where some heroes from the early, middle and late Dasheng dynasties are located have become accessible.
What's more important is that Meng Yuan can trace his origins upwards from the long river of history and continue to the new dynasty.
Meng Yuan's field of vision seemed to be constantly being stretched higher. Originally, these historical slices of the Great Sheng Dynasty were all surrounding each other, as if together they formed a galaxy. But soon, as the field of vision expanded, this galaxy gradually turned into an isolated island.
In the chaotic flow of time and space, tracing back from the Dasheng Dynasty, there is a space full of darkness, chaos, and nothingness. If it were not for the existence of the Dasheng Dynasty, the darkness before and after would be connected, and it would be a large fault that lasts for hundreds of years. era.
Originally, Meng Yuan could not travel through this chaotic and void space, but now, with the power drawn from the previous slices of history, and with this area of Dasheng Dynasty as a fulcrum, he can finally cut through the waves and continue to move forward. .
"So there are no historical slices in this area?" Meng Yuan asked.
The consultant shook his head slightly: "Of course there are.
"It's just that compared to other eras, the historical slices are relatively few and not large-scale. They are scattered in the turbulence of time and space. It is difficult to form a specific anchor point like the historical slice where Sheng Taizu was.
“Furthermore, demons from this dark age are often relatively powerful.
"You can challenge these historical slices later, but the benefits will not be very high and the price/performance ratio is extremely low. So the priority can be later."
After a somewhat long journey, a new slice of history finally appeared ahead.
"This period should be the great dark era known as 'Zhongzhou Lu Shen', and further ahead, it should be the Qi Dynasty..."
After this period of studying the history of this world, Meng Yuan had a relatively comprehensive concept of these basic historical knowledge.
Soon, Meng Yuan and Shenshang established a foothold near the historical slice where the Qi Dynasty was located.
Compared with the Sheng Dynasty, the entire area of the Qi Dynasty was significantly different.
If the Sheng Dynasty is the aura that a dynasty should have, and it is very dazzling in the long river of darkness connected before and after, then the Qi Dynasty looks a lot dimmer, as if the border is being continuously eroded by darkness, and the scope of the entire surrounding area is also smaller. a lot of.
The historical slice that is at the core and locks the entire region is shrouded in darkness and weakened.
It can even be said that it is a paradise for monsters.
On the contrary, another huge historical slice around it is very dazzling, not inferior to the historical slice where Sheng Taizu is located.
For Meng Yuan, this situation could be said to have been expected.
"If the historical knowledge I learned is correct, compared with Sheng Taizu, the emperors of the Qi Dynasty cannot be said to be slightly inferior. They can only be said to be worlds apart.
“That’s why the historical slice of the Qi Dynasty is so dim.
"But this closer historical slice looks very close to the historical slice of Sheng Taizu?"
Ginseng was floating in the turbulence of time and space, and she had a panoramic view of most of the historical slices of the Qi Dynasty.
"Yes, the reason why this historical slice focusing on the Qi Dynasty looks weak and chaotic is precisely because the emperors in the critical period of the Qi Dynasty were quite disappointing.
"This historical slice is the historical slice where Qi Gaozong is located.
"And in this historical slice similar to Sheng Taizu, the protagonist is not the emperor, but a famous general."
Meng Yuan thought for a while: "General Han Fu Yue Han?"
The consultant looked at him and said, "Huh? You've done a good job studying history recently. That's right, it's General Han."
This General Han Fuyue Han is a famous general in the history of this world and a key figure in the resurgence of the Qi Dynasty.
The so-called Zhongxing means the revival of the Middle Way. Generally speaking, when a dynasty declines or becomes prosperous again after a period of chaos, it is called Zhongxing.
It's just that most of the resurgences of other dynasties in history were related to the emperor, but it can be said that the resurgence of the Qi Dynasty was all achieved by General Han Fuyue alone.
In the entire Qi Dynasty, there were almost no generals who could compare to him.
On the one hand, this is because the entire Qi Dynasty emphasizes civility over military affairs, military attachés are not valued at all, and most generals have difficulty getting the opportunity to show their talents. On the other hand, it is because General Han’s abilities, character and quality are all outstanding. Enough to enter the ranks of famous generals throughout the ages.
"Now you can plan your own route to conquer the entire Qi Dynasty.
“In principle we need to go through three or four slices of history to gain enough strength to move forward.”
As the counselor spoke, he put his hand on Meng Yuan's forehead and transmitted all the information about these historical slices.
A vast amount of information instantly poured into Meng Yuan's mind.
When I conquered the Dasheng Dynasty before, I experienced a total of three large-scale dungeons, namely "The matter is decided but the coffin must be closed", "The title of a prince is not my intention" and "A reckless and heroic spirit".
These three large-scale dungeons ranged from the late Dasheng Dynasty to the founding of the Dasheng Dynasty, and many heroes participated in them.
This route was basically made by consultants who gave suggestions and Meng Yuan made the final decision.
The reason why the first dungeon was chosen as "The matter must be settled before the coffin is closed" was mainly because Meng Yuan was still very weak at the time and could only start with this small, unknown slice of history.
After that, as your strength continues to increase, you can naturally make great strides forward.
Now, Meng Yuan can decide on his own how to plan the strategy route.
After thinking for a while, he first clicked on a medium-sized historical slice in the middle, and then selected the historical slice where General Han Fuyue and Han were located. Finally, it was the bleak history that locked the entire Qi Dynasty. slice.
"Just these three."
The consultant nodded: "Well, judging from the current level of players, the difficulty curve is quite reasonable, and there is no big problem.
"However... this last slice of history looks full of chaos. On the one hand, a chaotic slice of history means we have a higher degree of freedom, but from another perspective, it will also be more difficult. Some."
Meng Yuan smiled slightly: "It doesn't matter. Players have become more and more familiar with the rhythm of this game. I think it's time to give them a little more freedom and try higher-level challenges.
"I've already thought of a name for the first copy."
The businessman was a little curious: "What's it called?"
Meng Yuan looked at the medium-sized historical slice and replied: "If you want to tell me... let's stop."
