Chapter 895 Twenty years later! Today’s world

In March in the south of the Yangtze River, the early spring grows and everything wakes up.

A bright moon hangs high in the sky, the floating light leaps into the gold, and the silent shadow sinks into the wall.

Although it has passed the second watch, the small town of Xuanyang, located next to the main road in Gyeonggi Province, still looks lively.

The lights in the Wild Fox Restaurant are brightly lit, and the room between changing glasses is filled with the smell of fireworks. Businessmen and merchants are chatting about world affairs and gossiping about wild interests.

A full twenty years have passed since the [War of Meteor].

Twenty years ago, during the Battle of Daoshan, the world nearly collapsed. Yuanzu fell, Tianzun passed away, and the territory of the Qin Dynasty was shattered. Almost one-third of the land disappeared, and the population plummeted by 70%.

The Hundred Thousand Mountains have become history, the monsters in the world are scattered, and now they are like light and dust.

The world is long and full of charm, but I have never thought that humans and ghosts share the same path, and it is difficult to distinguish between yin and yang.

"I heard that the imperial court is going to use troops again... This is probably the fifth conquest."

"Who says it's not the case? Back then, there was a great change in the sky, the world fell apart, and the people suffered. After ten years of self-cultivation, I finally breathed a sigh of relief. Who would have thought that the imperial court would use a large number of troops to conquer the Taoist sects in the world... Those Taoist priests are really

Pitiful."

"What's the pity? If it wasn't for the Nine Avenues Sect, how could that disaster have happened? It's simply deserved."

"In the autumn of troubled times, the turmoil continues, but the people are still suffering."

In the tavern, everyone was chatting lively, talking about the recent developments in the imperial court. Some people were angry and slapped the table and cursed.

Within ten years, this was the fifth time that the imperial court launched an army to conquer sects all over the world... Those Taoist priests were overwhelmed by the imperial power and were unable to fight. They either surrendered to the royal religion or fled into the mountains.

Compared to twenty years ago, it is now difficult to find traces of the numerous sects in the world.

Once upon a time, the legends about Taoist priests traveling around the world, subduing demons, and transforming the common people were just legends.

In this regard, public opinion is divided into two different voices. Some people say that the disaster is not far away, and the imperial court does not want to restore the people's livelihood, and it is a cruel act to launch war and kill Taoist sects wantonly.

Some people also say that the Yuantian Rebellion was entirely caused by the Nine Great Dao Sect. Yuanzu came to the world and brought disaster to the world. Now the retribution of karma and death is not a pity.

"Everyone... everyone... don't talk about state affairs... don't talk about state affairs..."

At this moment, the shopkeeper with a mustache saw that the situation was getting out of control and hurriedly walked out to calm everyone's emotions.

"Uncle Ping, what is the Nine Avenue Gate?"

In the corner, an eight or nine-year-old child suddenly looked at the stern man next to him and asked.

"That was history..."

Chen Ping's eyes were distracted, he picked up the wine glass on the table and drank it all in one gulp.

"History?" Chu Tong looked confused.

He had never seen such history in books.

"Of course you haven't seen it... Since the Tianyun War, the imperial court has confiscated private collections of books several times and burned them... In another hundred years, I'm afraid no one in this world will remember the Nine Great Sect." Chen Ping couldn't help but sigh.

Erasing the traces of the Nine Avenue Gate has been one of the important measures taken by the imperial court in the past ten years.

During the Battle of Tianyun, the world was devastated and there were heavy casualties. It was known as one of the greatest disasters in history.

If Yuanshi Tianzun hadn't appeared out of nowhere and killed Yuanzu, I'm afraid I wouldn't have even had these twenty years.

Because of this, Tianzun passed away, which made many people extremely hostile to the Nine Dao Sect.

Rumor has it that Yuanshi Tianzun, who once saved the dawn of mankind from a great calamity, was born in the mortal world and came out of the Demon Control Division.

He has old friends all over the world, relatives and friends are still there, and his hatred towards Jiudao Sect is as deep as the sea.

"Nine Great Sects...were they ever so glorious?" Chu Tong couldn't help but ask.

"That was the last glory of the Taoist sect... where Shiwang Mountain is today is the Taoist temple of Longhu Mountain back then." Chen Ping said suddenly.

"What?" The young Chu Tong was surprised.

Shiwang Mountain is the holy land of the demon clan today.

In the battle of Tianyun, hundreds of thousands of mountains fell apart and completely turned into smoke.

In the past twenty years, Shiwang Mountain has risen strongly, sheltered all the demons in the world, and established the eight sects. Today, it has become a sacred place for demons that even the imperial court is afraid of.

Rumor has it that the owner of Shiwang Mountain is the strongest demon clan today, known as the uncrowned king, and his cultivation is earth-shattering.

However, King Shi's whereabouts are secretive and the dragon is difficult to see. In the past twenty years, he has almost never set foot on the human world and has not seen any outsiders. He appears extremely lonely and mysterious.

"If it can serve as King Shi's dojo... then Longhu Mountain should be very strong." Chu Tong couldn't help but said.

As a preparatory demon-slaying guard who had been taken in and trained by the Demon Control Division since he was a child, he knew the weight of King Shi very well.

That is the most powerful person in the demon clan, the uncrowned king in the world. Within the Demon Control Department, this is the highest-level monitoring target.

Shiwang Mountain is regarded as the supreme holy land by the demon clan in the world, and its predecessor must have been extraordinary.

"King Shi and Tian Zun met when they were young and had a deep relationship..." Chen Ping said suddenly.

"In the battle of Tianyun, Tianzun transformed into Taoism. King Shi was furious and launched a boundless killing spree. He personally visited Longhu Mountain and leveled the Taoist holy land that had long been reduced to ruins... Later, he left the capital with relief and led the demons.

Stay here and never see anyone else again."

"Yuanshi Tianzun..." Chu Tong murmured, reciting the name, his young face full of respect.

Since he was a child, he has heard the story of Tianzun passing away to protect the common people. Nowadays, all the people in the world do not worship Taoism, but only worship Tianzun, and the incense is endless day and night.

Even this small Ye Fox Winery has a memorial tablet dedicated to Yuanshi Tianzun in the southeast corner. There are three fragrances in the morning and evening, and I dare not neglect it in the slightest.

"Uncle Ping, I heard that Master Tianzun came out of our Demon Control Department... Is this true?" Chu Tong asked curiously.

For a little guy like him who was born after the Fallen Heaven War, Yuanshi Tianzun is a high-ranking god who exists in the legend of saving the world and rescuing people from disasters. Although he has passed away, he still seems to be immortal.

"That's right... I saw him in the capital when I was young." Chen Ping said suddenly.

"Really?" When Chu Tong heard this, his eyes lit up and he jumped up, almost overturning the table.

"What are you doing? Be more careful." Chen Ping said dissatisfied.

"Uncle Ping, have you really met Lord Tianzun?"

Chu Tong's eyes were like a flash of lightning in the dark night, frighteningly bright.

In his mind, seeing Yuanshi Tianzun is equivalent to a witness of myths and legends. How can he control his emotions in this way?

"I was still young at that time... I must be three or five years older than you are now..." A trace of reminiscence appeared in Chen Ping's eyes.

At that time, he was only fifteen or sixteen years old. He went to the headquarters of the Demon Control Division in the capital for further training. He once saw from a distance the man who would become invincible in the world in the future.

At that time, he had not yet attained the status of Heavenly Lord, but he was still famous in the world and feared by all the heroes.

At that time, he had another name.

King Yuan!

"Uncle Ping, tell me, what kind of person is Master Tianzun?" Chu Tong asked excitedly.

"The light is endless and cannot be grasped." Chen Ping thought for a while and said.

At that time, he was just a little guy and could only be seen from a distance. Even so, King Yuan's temperament made him unforgettable to this day.

You must know that King Yuan more than twenty years ago was already known as an unparalleled and stunning existence in ancient times. Even Longhu Shan, the leader of the Taoist sect at that time, regarded him as a serious problem.

"It's a pity that I was born at the wrong time and couldn't see Lord Tianzun's grace." Chu Tong said a little disappointed.

"Child talk." Chen Ping glanced at it, shook his head and sighed.

Anyone who has experienced the [Celestial Catastrophe] will not want to go back to such times again.

It was a disaster that all living beings in the world could not avoid. Many relatives and friends were buried, so many loved ones passed away, the homeland fell apart, and the whole world was like a bereavement.

Those who survived are burdened with indelible grief. This is their luck and their misfortune.

"Uncle Ping, do you know what Lord Tianzun's name is?" Chu Tong said suddenly.

"Um!?"

Chen Ping's eyes narrowed slightly, and he raised his hand and hit his head with a blow, causing Chu Tong to hold his head and lean over, howling.

"Uncle Ping, it hurts."

"You are very brave. If you dare to ask the name of Tianzun, you are seeking death." Chen Ping said solemnly.

Yuanshi Tianzun, the Dharma taboo is like a god and cannot be blasphemed. It is an epoch-making monument for the people of the world. Since then, the world has changed, so naturally one must be in awe.

"I know... I was just asking casually." Chu Tong curled his lips.

"After completing the mission this time, you can stay in the capital." Chen Ping suddenly said.

"Stay in the capital?" Chu Tong was stunned.

"Before the age of ten, it is the age to lay a solid foundation. I have already said hello and allowed you to enter the genius training camp..."

As he spoke, a look of awe appeared on Chen Ping's face: "You have to know that Master Yuan Zhu came out of the genius training camp back then."

When Chu Tong heard this, his expression became slightly more positive, and the remaining hesitation and reluctance in his heart disappeared when he heard the name.

Yuan Zhu is one of the nine divine pillars today. His strength is shocking in the world, and he is an unparalleled master.
