Chapter 839 The History of the Cultivation World{xml}nbspFirst update
After arriving at the boundary of the provincial capital, we did not stop and continued to move in one direction. After a while, we sensed a familiar wave coming from the front.
At Kangqiao's signal, we descended one after another, following the breath and falling quickly. As the distance continued to increase, the scene below gradually became clearer.
Below is a vast yard, surrounded by plants that can grow in winter. Many figures can be vaguely seen walking below. One of them, a man with an amazing aura, is standing below and waving to us, and his face is also there.
As we approach quickly it becomes clear...
This man is Sun Zimo.
Before coming to the provincial capital, Su Liuliu greeted Sun Zimo and asked us to come directly to Sun's house. In other places, we would have to avoid the public, but when we arrived at Sun's house, which was vast in area, there was no need to worry about it. It was all about cultivation.
Of course, there is no need to avoid it.
The five major families in the provincial capital each guard one side of the provincial capital and protect the safety of the provincial capital all year round. Therefore, the five major families have a high status in Yang Province not only because of their strength, but also because they have paid a lot.
The Sun family is located on the east side, the side closest to Yangcheng.
As soon as we landed, Sun Zimo came up to us, looked at Kang Qiao in confusion, and said in surprise: "You...are you in the middle of the second-star stage?"
Kang Qiao just broke through last night, and the news hasn't spread yet, and Su Liuliu didn't tell Sun Zimo, so when Sun Zimo sensed Kang Qiao's surge of aura, he was naturally surprised.
Hearing this, Kang Qiao's expression was suddenly shocked, and his eyes shone. He had been beaten by people in the Ghost Exorcist Association for a long time, and he urgently needed a proof to soothe his wounded heart. So Kang Qiao gave a hairstyle that he thought was cool,
Looking at the sky at a forty-five-degree angle, he said sadly: "Oh, I accidentally broke through to the mid-two-star stage. I originally wanted to keep a low profile, but my strength doesn't allow it!"
"...."
Seeing Kang Qiao looking like he didn't deserve a beating, Sun Zimo felt very hurt. He wanted to refute it, but he couldn't because he hadn't broken through to the mid-two-star level yet.
So Sun Zimo had no choice but to resist the desire to beat Kang Qiao and silently recited three times in his mind that it is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge. Then he looked at the rest of us and said with a smile: "I haven't seen you for half a month. You two have reached the second level of perfection."
Ah, that’s great. Director Chen is happy this time, maybe Yang Province can get a good ranking."
"Brother Mo, I can quickly break through to the second level of perfection, and I have to thank my friends for it."
After hearing this, my eyes lit up, and I immediately introduced Lin Huai and Xiao Yuting to Sun Zimo. This was a good opportunity for both parties to get acquainted with each other.
Sure enough, Lin Huai and Xiao Yuting's names were very resounding, even to Sun Zimo. And like Xu Xuan, Sun Zimo, who had never met people from other worlds, immediately had a strong desire to get acquainted with the two.
"Your friends are our friends. Come on, my Sun family has no habit of neglecting guests. Since you are here at my Sun family, come and sit at home!" Sun Zimo said with a smile.
In fact, this was my first time to visit the Sun Family. The first feeling I felt about the Sun Family was that it was big, the second feeling was that it was a big place, and the third feeling was that there were so many people.
Along the way we saw many people, including men and women, old and young, with varying strengths. They ranged from ordinary people to early, mid- to late-stage one-stars, but we didn’t see any two-stars yet.
However, judging from the faintly powerful aura coming from the front, there are still two-star strong men, and there should be quite a few, but they are all inside, not outside.
It can be seen that Sun Zimo is quite popular in the Sun family. Many people are saying hello to Sun Zimo on the street, and Sun Zimo responds with a smile one by one.
Looking at Sun Zimo's smile, I seriously suspected that there were actually some people who couldn't even name Sun Zimo, and they might not even know him, because there were so many Sun family members. I roughly estimated that there must be thousands.
After looking at the Sun family for a while, I got tired of looking at the buildings, and then I started to look at the buildings inside. The further you go in, the denser and more prosperous the buildings become. The layout inside is similar to that of the Spiritual Adjustment Bureau. There is everything, including a training ground.
All.
It is worth mentioning that many of these buildings have an antique feel. Just looking at them can give you a sense of tranquility and history.
It is said that the ancestor of the Sun family lived for more than 200 years and was born during the Qianlong period, so some buildings were built in this style.
"Our Sun family has actually been relatively large since the late Qing Dynasty, and we have lived here for generations. Unfortunately, during the Anti-Japanese War, many buildings were blown up. These were actually built according to my grandfather's wishes.
." Sun Zimo introduced us as he walked.
"Anti-Japanese War?"
Hearing this, I immediately became interested and said: "Powerful practitioners, not to mention guns and missiles, can't be harmed. At that time, practitioners should be the ones who controlled the country's power, right? But why are they all said to be blasted away by guns and cannons?"
The country has passed? Are the cultivators produced by our Great Hot Summer not as good as those of the small Neon Kingdom?"
"I don't know the specific situation, but I once heard a few words when chatting with elders. They once said that the cultivation world in Yanxia and even the world only developed in modern times, only thirty or forty years ago.
Before this, ghosts were rare, let alone practitioners.
Later, during the Anti-Japanese War, although there were a very small number of cultivators, they could not control the overall situation, and cultivators also had cultivators to fight against, so at that time they mainly relied on firearms such as guns and cannons..." Sun Zimo answered.
"Did it develop only in modern times?" I said unexpectedly: "Such a powerful cultivation world has only developed in the past few decades? I thought the cultivators had been passing on it for hundreds or thousands of years."
"That's true. It's not just the Sun family's words. It should be that around the time of reform and opening up, practitioners began to spring up like mushrooms after a rain... Before that, the whole world was actually working hard to produce science and technology, but after that,
I started grabbing it with both hands." Kang Qiao nodded and said, "But I don't know what the reason for this is, not even Su Liuliu knows. But it is indeed a fact, otherwise the historical data in the past would not be so pure, not even a little bit
I won’t tell you any information about the practitioners.”
"That's right, even our elders don't know the specific reason, let alone us juniors. Maybe grandpa knows, but he keeps silent about this past event. Maybe even he doesn't know..." Sun Zimo
He shrugged.
Hearing this, we were all a little confused. In fact, I used to think that the cultivation of Taoism and immortality passed down from ancient times should be somewhat related to cultivation, but I didn't expect that cultivation only emerged in recent decades.
What happened in the middle??
What happened that caused the sudden rise of spiritual practice?
Not only me, but Ye Yuyou also looked confused, while Lin Huai and Xiao Yuting were thoughtful at the side.
After pondering for a moment, I couldn't help but ask: "Brother Mo, you just said that although there were very few practitioners in the past, there are still a very small number of them, right?"
"Yes, that's what the elders in the family said. At that time, due to some reasons, it might be that people had just come into contact with cultivation, or it might be that cultivation had not yet become popular, so not only were the number of cultivators small, but their strength was also very weak, otherwise there would be no peace in the scorching summer.
Will we be reduced to this in those years..." Sun Zimo sighed, as a member of the hot summer, when talking about those dark years, he would sigh a little.
"That's right..." I nodded slowly. They were all guesses, but they were quite reasonable. I didn't know why.
But I always feel that things may not be that simple, because since Yan Xia can defeat the opponent, it means that the pattern of the world's cultivation world was not much different at that time, and there were not too many or too strong cultivators in other countries.
So here comes the question. It can be explained in this way that the Yanxia country has just come into contact with cultivation or that cultivation has not yet become popular, but it is a bit strange that the whole world is like this. Is cultivation just like technology, which only starts to explode in a certain era?
Having said that, even in terms of technology, different countries are very different in the same era, right? Logically speaking, there should be considerable differences between different countries in the process of cultivation...
Am I just being paranoid, or is there really something wrong?
