Chapter 470: World Chapter: Blurred Past, Present, and Future

Chapter 470: World: Blurred Past, Present, and Future (Part )
Also irreplaceable?
Wang Yao narrowed his eyes slightly under the mask, and became alert; suddenly, he was unable to judge how credible the words of Xiaoyao Huanmeng, who was known as one of the great sages of Jixia, were, so he did not respond.

As for Zhuang Zhou, he seemed to have gotten used to Wang Yao's behavior of thinking twice before acting. Seeing that the other party did not respond, he continued to talk to himself: "Things have developed to this point. As one of the three wise men of Jixia, I also have an unshirkable responsibility. But no matter what, the only thing I can do now is to tell you everything I know. As for whether to believe it or not, it is entirely up to your own judgment."

"I think you have had this question more than once, that is, why were we so-called "heroes" created?"

"In fact, even though this issue has been banned for thousands of years, there are still countless scholars from the Alka family who secretly excavate ancient sites to conduct research in this area. However, the conclusion they finally came to is nothing more than one, that is, the great [Pioneers] in the distant past created [Heroes], a transcendent existence that defies common sense, in order to better rule the entire continent. However, the real situation is not like this; in fact, the reason why we heroes were created is not to conquer and fight, but to protect!"

When he heard the word "protect", Wang Yao's eyes couldn't help but show a hint of sarcasm.

Zhuang Zhou didn't really care about this, but continued, "Speaking of this, we have to mention the origin of 'us'. What the world doesn't know is that the real master of this world is actually someone else, including you, me, us, them, and all the existing humans in the world today. In fact, we are not the natives of this world. We are all 'creations' of great pioneers, and the pioneers came from the more distant other side of the starry sky. It was only because their 'original homeland' was on the verge of destruction that they were forced to use ancient technology to come to this new world! I think you should know something about this secret, right?"

Wang Yao had a rough idea of ​​this in his mind. He was very clear that he was not originally from this world. But at the same time, he was also keenly aware of a problem; that is, Zhuang Zhou's narration seemed a little too fragmented, as if he had deciphered a certain incomplete ancient scroll and then recounted it verbatim. There was an inexplicable sense of "fuzzy concepts" between the lines, such as his choice of words!

To put it bluntly, if Zhuang Zhou really understood the truth, he should know that the "original homeland" of the pioneers he just mentioned actually refers to the mother planet Earth! But he couldn't use this word, which means, first, he didn't know where the so-called hometown of the pioneers was, and second, his previous guess was wrong. Zhuang Zhou probably just knew that he came from another world, but he didn't know his life background completely!
Does that mean that Zhuang Zhou is either planning to use a new conspiracy to confuse and fool him in order to delay his offensive steps, or that even Zhuang Zhou has an information gap, resulting in him only knowing the general idea of ​​the matter?

Of course, Wang Yao did not ask the question in his mind, but waited quietly for Zhuang Zhou to explain further.

Zhuang Zhou also returned the topic to the "heroes": "Now in the library of the Jixia Academy, according to the ancient books that can be searched, our heroes started a thousand years ago. Under the guidance of the great gods, Wan Gu Chang Ming established the Jixia Academy and created the hero system, creating today's world. But in fact, the true origin of our heroes is in the old times three thousand years ago! At that time, the pioneers had just come to this world, but it was different from what we imagined. In the ancient times, although the land under our feet was rich in resources, it was not suitable for human survival. The biggest obstacle was the rampant monsters!"

"That was a wild era of monsters. There were countless monsters living throughout the continent. Their numbers were astonishing, spreading across the world like worms. They were all extremely powerful and bloodthirsty. There was even a kind of [Ultimate Monster] that was still unknown to the world. At that time, even the pioneers, who were super-intelligent life forms, could not completely defeat the monsters with their own strength, or even create a completely habitable environment for humans. Therefore, the newly born humans, including the pioneers, could only live in the city [Inverted Sky] created by the power of miracles three thousand years ago."

Hearing this, even though he had not witnessed it with his own eyes, Wang Yao couldn't help but recall something he had heard a long time ago; except for the locations of the major forces, the rest of the King's Continent is occupied by all kinds of ferocious monsters!
After a brief pause, Wang Yao asked calmly, "So, what you mean is that the heroes were created just to eliminate the native monsters on the continent and protect the new humans created by those so-called pioneers?"

Zhuang Zhou nodded and said, "Yes, the great pioneers created the magic way, and through the gene fusion technology, they created beings that can compete with the ancient monsters. Some say they are clergy, which is what we now call "heroes". But as you can see, in fact, until today, three thousand years later, the space we can survive is still limited to a small part of the continent. Not only have we failed to inherit the will of the pioneers, but we have even completely forgotten this responsibility. Among them, Wan Gu Chang Ming, as the leader of the contemporary world, naturally has his unshirkable responsibility, but more importantly, it is because in the old era three thousand years ago, a super-large-scale war occurred that almost caused a break in the era. This war is called "Ragnarok"!"

After a pause, Zhuang Zhou suddenly said with a strange look on his face, "In order to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings on your part, I have to admit that everything I have said so far has no substantial evidence, and even what I know may not be much more than you do."

Sure enough
Wang Yao asked coldly: "So, you actually know nothing about my 'background'? Then what is the basis for your judgment of my 'innate knowledge'?"

"Dreamland."

"?"

Under Wang Yao's increasingly cold gaze, Zhuang Zhou said, "It should be said that the reason why I know all the secrets now is not because I have spent my life energy to glimpse the secrets of heaven like the previous generation of peerless wisdom, nor because I discovered it through ancient books and documents, but because I have 'dreamed' of a distant world. It is an amazing scene; towering buildings are lined up in rows, horseless carriages shuttle back and forth at high speed, and long-winged iron birds roar as they fly overhead."

Wang Yao quickly realized that what Zhuang Zhou dreamed of was actually the Earth! Before Wang Yao could ask, Zhuang Zhou said again: "However, even through the power of dreams, I can only roughly know some fragments of scenes that existed in the past time period. Therefore, what I know and say today are all based on my personal speculation. Whether it is true or not, you have to wait for your own verification in the future. As I said at the beginning, whether you believe it or not depends on your own judgment. But I can almost tell you clearly that you are different from heroes like us who are created by gene fusion. You are a more special existence than us. Even the blood flowing in your body may be the blood of a supreme pioneer! Because only in this way can it reasonably explain why Zhuge Liang, who has seen the secret of heaven, chose you!"

Wang Yao's heart trembled slightly. His memory began to drift involuntarily, and he recalled the extremely dazzling golden light he saw in a daze four years ago after he was severely injured in the battle against Lu Bu in the canyon battlefield.
On the other hand, Zhuang Zhou continued: "All of this originated three thousand years ago. After the pioneers created heroes, relying on this unrivaled army, the pioneers were finally able to open up a small amount of habitable areas on the continent where monsters were rampant. After that, the pioneers proclaimed themselves gods and began to take over the entire continent. The most outstanding among them, the true founder of the King's Continent and the supreme leader of the founder of civilization, was revered by people as the [Supreme Creation]! Unfortunately, only a thousand years later, a split occurred within the gods. It was this split that triggered the unprecedented [Ragnarok] war, which eventually led to the fall of the great gods one after another, resulting in a civilizational fault in the era. The culprit was the evil god [Emperor Jun] who was opposite to the Supreme Creation!"

Di Jun?

Wang Yao came back to his senses and frowned deeply.

Zhuang Zhou said solemnly, "Right, so now you understand, right? Why is the Master so determined to kill you? The fundamental reason is not because you disrupted the Master's thousand-year-long [Plan], or shook the status and rules of the Jixia Academy, but because the source of these terrifyingly powerful equipment on you is from the [Arsenal] of the Evil God Di Jun! Wan Gu Chang Ming believes that you are the bloodline of the Evil God Di Jun. Your existence may become the source of future troubles in the world, and even trigger a new round of war among the gods!"

"Ridiculous!" Wang Yao responded subconsciously. At the same time, a sense of restlessness began to surge in his stagnant inner world.

He suddenly began to not want to listen to Zhuang Zhou's "nonsense" anymore. His instinct told him that if he continued like this he would be in a disadvantageous position. If he regarded this meeting as a battle between him and Zhuang Zhou, then at this moment Wang Yao had gradually fallen into a disadvantage of 60-40, going from a 50-50 advantage at the beginning!

As for Zhuang Zhou, regardless of whether Wang Yao could accept it or not, he continued to speak: "Facts speak louder than words. The weapons and equipment of the evil god Di Jun are only known to us three sages of Jixia. No matter how you deny it, you cannot deny the fact that Di Jun's arsenal is on you! And Wan Gu Chang Ming would not have paid attention to you until you frequently exposed these equipment, which eventually led to his visit to the Three-Point Land. As one of your guides, Zhuge Liang was not aware of this, but he could also sense that the origin of these weapons was unusual. Therefore, he deliberately concealed your existence from the Jixia Academy and even deceived his teacher Wan Gu Chang Ming!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Yao interrupted him: "So what exactly do you want to say? Do you want to say that my bloodline comes from the evil god Di Jun? Do you want to say that I am born with sin? Do you want to say that there is nothing wrong with what Wan Gu Chang Ming did?!"

Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Wang Yao was showing signs of exploding at this moment; it was a kind of anger and sarcasm that had hit bottom.

But in response, Zhuang Zhou just shook his head silently.

"No."

Zhuang Zhou stared at the young man below whose breathing was beginning to become disordered.

"Unfortunately, even as one of the Three Sages of Jixia, even now, I am just like my peerless wisdom back then. I simply cannot produce solid evidence to prove your origin to Wan Gu Chang Ming or the world. However, based on the dream fragments I have collected so far, I can almost conclude that your bloodline does not come from the evil god Di Jun, but from-"

"Supreme Creation!"
