[Bite!]
[Main quest completed: Saintess Ren Yingying is about to become a couple with Linghu Chong. To prevent the decline of martial arts, let's break them up!]
[Quest reward obtained: Earthly Fiend Seventy-Two Transformations (Flawless Version)]
The Earthly Fiend Seventy-Two Transformations.
It does not mean transforming into someone else's appearance.
The methods involved are numerous, even including astronomy and geography, summoning wind and rain, martial arts, and healing.
Therefore, it is both a practice method and a unique skill.
Ye Zhuo obtained this item, but his state of mind remained unchanged.
With just one meditation session, he memorized it and began practicing.
Penglai in the East Blue.
Great Sun Palace.
Ye Zhuo is cultivating day and night.
After seven days and seven nights of tempering, Ren Yingying had already exhausted her strength while making progress in her cultivation.
[Main Quest Unlocked: Awaiting the Arrival of the Dharma-Ending Era and the Beginning of Spiritual Resurgence]
[Quest Reward: Eight-Part Heavenly Scripture (Complete Version)]
Um?
Ye Zhuo was stunned.
What's going on? How can these Eight-Part Heavenly Scripture be obtained so easily?
Shouldn't it, like Book of Ages, have fragments?
They should at least acquire them one by one.
[The Eight-Part Heavenly Scripture - Flawless Edition: Though named as eight books, it is actually one, a wordless Heavenly Scripture. At the beginning of the creation of the Ancient Martial World, after the Creator God Fuxi left behind the Innate Eight Trigrams, there was also a wordless Heavenly Scripture. Anything written on it using Cangjie's characters can be realized.]
It wasn't a cultivation technique, but a wordless Heavenly Scripture that could be considered a creation treasure.
Ye Zhuo was very satisfied with the reward.
Even more surprisingly, the Ancient Martial World was created by the great god Fuxi.
Based on past experience.
Once you obtain this type of Noble Phantasm that requires unlocking, it means that a world quest will be unlocked.
The global mission requires a 99-year countdown.
Ye Zhuo has basically mastered the routines of the Myriad Heavens Role-Playing System.
"The characters created by Cangjie?"
Ye Zhuo felt that there seemed to be some bug in how this thing worked.
Cangjie Script was not wrong.
But those should be the very first words, coming from all things in heaven and earth, from every movement and action.
It is said to be pictographic, but in reality it is an imitation of the Great Dao.
Looks like I'll have to learn something new again.
Over the years, Ye Zhuo has mastered the languages of various regions and read through all kinds of documents and classics.
I didn't expect that even after a new task came along, it would still feel tricky.
Powerful doesn't necessarily mean ancient, but something ancient to the present day is certainly powerful!
Ye Zhuo stretched out a hand, as if grasping the pulse of the world, and began to comprehend and imitate the ancient Cangjie Script.
Little did they know.
Time flies by like a white horse galloping past a crack in the wall; time has raced by like a madman.
Three hundred years.
Enough for the world to forget everything.
Later, the dynasty also collapsed.
A new generation of humans began to chase after the sea.
They discovered technology from the Supreme Demon Kingdom once again.
That's when I realized how great and incredible Ye Zhuo was.
Times have changed.
Because the martial arts of the Central Plains were once protected by Ye Zhuo, their lineage has been passed down intermittently.
Over the course of three hundred years, martial arts practices in various regions have declined considerably.
Only in the Central Plains do one or two Peak Expert occasionally emerge.
Over the centuries, seven more Peak Expert emerged.
It's a pity that they all come one after another, rather than coexisting in the world.
People call him Grandmaster, and according to the timeline, he is revered as a myth.
Little did they know that true Grandmaster and legends are not only realms of understanding, but also real people!
Let alone the "One Monk, Two Heroes, Three Elders, and Four Greats" of the Heavenly Dragon Era, or even the Five Greats" of the Shooting the Condors Era.
Even the Southern and Northern Wudang monks from the era of the Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber and Wudang were nowhere to be seen.
Once war breaks out, the people are destined to suffer.
Peak Expert are helpless when faced with technological warfare, let alone one who has only emerged in decades.
Martial arts ultimately declined under the weight of steel and cannons.
Decades have passed in the blink of an eye.
People should not speak of martial arts true energy, Manifest Force, Hidden Force, or Transforming Force.
These kinds of internal and external martial arts powers, which should have been present before one could cultivate true qi, are becoming increasingly rare.
Those who master Manifest Force manifested strength) are considered masters, while those who Hidden Force) are considered Grandmaster.
There are no truly First-Rate Expert in the world!
Three hundred years.
As people continue to explore the ancient past, they discover that the ancients achieved a remarkably advanced technological civilization during the Heavenly Dragon Era.
Some have even discovered it in history.
The monarch of the Supreme Demon Kingdom made an appearance in the martial arts world three hundred years ago.
More and more archaeological discoveries are starting to make people uneasy.
It seems that martial arts masters really did exist in the world.
At the foot of a great mountain.
The remains of Zuo Lengchan, who died from the Buddha Palm, were unearthed.
Because of the unusual manner of death, the remains were preserved.
His disciples went through great lengths to carve open the mountain and place some relics and ancient books there as burial goods.
The archaeologist announced to the television, "We have found written records that this Zuo Lengchan was the master of the Five Mountains Sword Sects died a violent death back then. According to our hypothesis, he was very likely First-Rate Expert had cultivated true qi!"
This ancient book records that he died in the palm of a giant Buddha Form that was ten thousand feet tall.
It now appears that an earthquake occurred during the martial arts competition, causing a landslide that buried him there.
However, there is one particularly important record among them.
It is said that martial arts should have nine levels. Those who cultivate true qi and internal strength are in the middle three levels, while the top three levels are for the Peak Expert, such as the Grandmaster who perished together with an enemy warship!
As for the Martial Arts Grandmaster" and "Martial Arts Myth," they seem rather strange. Shouldn't they be considered honorifics?
People are watching television, and there are already numerous posts on online forums.
"Hey, have you heard? Excavators abroad have unearthed an ice fortress in a glacier, which is suspected to have once been inhabited by thousands of people. According to the murals, it was very likely a Daughter Kingdom, but the last person died two hundred years ago."
"Really? This is outrageous! You're not saying there's even Jade Maiden Manual, are you?!"
"Wow, look! Someone went exploring and discovered an Ancient Tomb at the foot of Mount Zhongnan. According to this expert, it was inhabited nearly three hundred years ago, and the words 'Living Dead Tomb' are actually carved here!"
"Tsk tsk tsk, that's outrageous."
In the desert.
This is a deserted continent.
Ancient records state that the ruler of the Supreme Demon Kingdom once spent countless manpower and resources here, exhausting the entire continent's population, to build his mausoleum.
Many experts conducted archaeological excavations here in the last century, but none of the artifacts were ever returned.
Now, the world is using its most cutting-edge technology to join forces and enter this place.
With a loud bang.
The Ancient Tomb's gates opened.
This colossal Pyramid, standing atop the desert and ten times more magnificent than any other pharaoh's Pyramid, quietly awaits the arrival of the world.
As they stepped inside, they walked step by step into the tower.
The lights illuminated the underground.
People looked up and discovered that this was the tomb of the Demon Lord, ten times the size of the Pharaoh's Pyramid.
It turned out to be just a front.
The real tomb is still underground; this underground space is now empty, like a kingdom, where the tomb of the gods was built.
"This is absolutely not something humans could build!"
"If someone could build such a tomb eight hundred years ago, wouldn't they be even more powerful than us!"
"This is the Demon Lord's tomb, but I remember ancient texts saying that the Demon Lord is immortal, and the tomb is just a facade. He himself lives in the magnificent Great Sun Palace!"
Great Sun Palace?
The archaeological team fell silent.
No aircraft, ship, or submarine can pass through the surrounding waters.
Even the images transmitted back by satellite were completely black, as if some force was interfering.
Even worse, once you get close, you can't get any closer.
Even humans cannot swim in a wooden boat.
Known as the Blue Star Forbidden Zone by humans, it is explained as a special type of Earth's magnetic field.
