Unlike more than two thousand years ago, Human Emperor City was now far quieter, more peaceful, and more joyful than before.
Since the battle to defend Human Emperor City ended and the Divine Xia Jiuli personally took command, the tension and solemnity that had lingered over this Chaos City for more than two hundred thousand years had long since vanished.
At the thought of the mythic immortal captain, the Emperor Jiang of Divine Xia, personally stationed within the city, the tens of billions, even hundreds of billions, of Kindling citizens within felt incomparably secure. As a result, the external exploration that had been tightly restricted for over two hundred thousand years had been fully opened up over the past two millennia.
The number of exploration registration forms held by the city patrol teams alone had already far exceeded the total from the previous two hundred thousand years.
It was no exaggeration to say that from the moment Human Emperor City won that offensive and defensive war against the four races and gained a firm foothold on the Chaos Divine Continent, the golden age of external exploration for the Kindling Civilization on the Chaos Divine Continent had arrived. The present was merely a small beginning.
The upper echelons of the Kindling's four great empires had long reached a conclusion: the coming tens of thousands, perhaps even hundred thousand years, would surely be a golden age in which the entire new generation of Kindling Civilization would explosively rise.
And that was indeed the case. In the great wave of external exploration over the past two thousand years alone, more than five lucky individuals had obtained color-grade marvels.
Those greater figures with more formidable backgrounds, who were not required to submit additional shares of their gains, would only have harvested more in secret.
