Chapter 1000 A Thousand Years

For a simple individual, a thousand years is an extremely long time, and even for a race, it is not a short time.

A thousand years of changes in the world, countless changes in the secular world, and countless storms in between.

The changes in heaven and earth never happen suddenly, nor are they abrupt. They don't happen overnight, but are subtle, like a gentle breeze and a fine rain. Many things have changed silently.

At some unknown time, cultivators were horrified to discover that the spiritual Qi between heaven and earth had recovered. The spiritual Qi that could not be absorbed by cultivators after the great changes in ancient times could be used again!

At first, it was just a few lucky ones with special physiques, but slowly, the land of Dongzhou, and even the nearby demon and dragon continents, and even the water tribes in the southeast seas, felt the existence of spiritual Qi.

For millions of years, the rules that could only be cultivated by absorbing Dan Qi were broken in this way!

Countless cultivators howled to the sky, and even the older generation of cultivators were moved to tears. This joy and excitement were no less than that of the subjects of a secular dynasty suddenly discovering gold, silver, wine, and meat falling from the sky.

The old order of the holy lands uniting the sects, the sects governing the countries, and the dynasties governing the people, collapsed without experiencing any earth-shattering battles.

Even if the holy lands and sects wanted to stop it, they couldn't, because spiritual Qi was everywhere. All cultivators were breathing in spiritual Qi.

An elder of a holy land walked out of seclusion and traveled around Dongzhou, only to feel that the spiritual Qi between heaven and earth was increasing at a subtle and imperceptible rate, and it seemed to be endless.

Over time, Dongzhou became a little unfamiliar.

The original desert became sacred land, and barren wastelands gave birth to grass and wood spirits. The former sacred mountains and holy lands were even so full of spiritual Qi that they were almost materialized.

The vast and surging spiritual Qi swept across Dongzhou, and then spread towards the Nine Provinces and Four Seas, and even the boundless starry sky.

Some cultivators discovered that cultivation seemed to be getting easier and easier.

The laws and Dao essences that were once covered by spiritual Qi became clearer, whether it was cultivation or breakthroughs, whether it was True Form or Dongtian.

Some cultivators broke through to Dongtian, extending their lives by three thousand years, and some old experts broke through the bottlenecks that had been difficult to advance for thousands of years, and returned to the realm of Feng Hou! (Bestowed Marquis)

Even the most dull cultivator had a premonition that an unprecedented great era was coming.

And it was unstoppable!

"Da Ri (Great Sun) Holy Body Yuan Duxiu has achieved the Feng Hou realm! On that day, a great sun came from the east and plunged into his arms, suspected to be the inheritance divine weapon of the Da Ri Jin Gong (Great Sun Golden Palace) of that year!"

"The Dongzhou Divine Body has reached great success! Lan Shuixian of the Taiyi Sect has returned to the Feng Hou realm. This is the physique that the former Da Yu (Great Yu) Supreme achieved enlightenment with. It is earth-shattering and enough to compete with that Da Ri Holy Body!"

"The demon subduing master descends from the sky, and the Taisui (Grand Duke Jupiter) deity is on the earth! Wu Er of Jingyang Mountain has risen against the heavens, killing the demon clan's Hu Xiaotian with his bare hands, and successfully becoming a Feng Hou! It is said that he fought with the Zhenyao (Demon Suppression) Pass Champion Marquis, who became a Feng Hou earlier, and the battle was evenly matched!"

"It is said that there is Buddhist light shining in the Western Regions, suspected to be the reincarnation of the Buddha Sect appearing in the world. On that day, experts descending from the starry sky appeared, earth-shattering!"

"Da Ri Holy Body, Dongzhou Divine Body, Taisui Divine Body, Champion Marquis, Buddha Sect... Is the great era finally coming? Since ancient times, when has there been such a situation of the various marquises rising together?"

......

The appearance of one young Feng Hou after another made countless people boil with excitement.

Unlike the older generation who had been honing for thousands of years, they rose out of nowhere, surpassing their predecessors and becoming new overlords, leading the various sects!

The breakthroughs of one peerless genius after another, and the appearance of one vanished supreme physique after another, made countless people believe even more that the great era was coming.

"Is it just Dongzhou? It is said that a peerless genius has also appeared in Zhongzhou. The empress of the Bashe (Hegemon World) Imperial Court has faced many challenges. The Tianji (Heavenly Mystery) Pavilion has spread the word that at least three Feng Hou giants have invited the empress to fight!"

The news that came made countless people even more shocked.

That Zhongzhou empress was able to advance to the Feng Hou realm under the suppression of heaven and earth, and was once called the number one genius in the Nine Provinces.

Countless people speculated that if she were in ancient times, she would definitely have embarked on the path of competing for the Supreme Dao.

Such an existence also has enemies?

"Heroes rise together, and geniuses compete for the top! Will a supreme being be born in this world again? Countless years of suppression, except for the Guanglong Supreme who was born out of nowhere and shone for a while, what kind of existence will be born from the eruption of millions of years of great fortune?"

"Among the geniuses in the world, who will be the first to break through and then challenge King Yuanyang?"

"It's difficult! The world has changed drastically, and the great era has come. The more oppressed one is, the more rapidly the more talented one breaks through! King Yuanyang rose against the heavens from silence, who knows how great a breakthrough he will have?"

Dongzhou, and even the Nine Provinces, were very lively. All kinds of news were spreading among countless cultivators. Some were excited, some were guessing, and some were silent.

Today, a supreme physique is born, and tomorrow, a genius breaks through. The aura of the coming of the great era is so real that everyone can feel it.

As time passed day by day, even though Dongzhou and even the Nine Provinces were extremely calm, many people understood that this was the last calm before the storm.

When a Feng Wang (Crowned King) is born, they will be able to challenge the status of that King Yuanyang, who suppresses the world.

Whether they win or lose, they will inevitably break this calm, and then set off another supreme battle after ancient times!

......

Dongzhou, Ding'an City.

This is a small city built by cultivators, surrounded by mountains and rivers, with a quiet environment. It is not very prosperous, but cultivators often come here.

It is said that Guanglong Supreme lived here for a short time when he came to Dongzhou.

This is also one of the reasons why this small city has existed for a long time.

"I heard that a few days ago, giants passed through the territory of the Huafeng Dynasty. The footprints were comparable to a big city. At that time, someone saw that the giant was as strong as a mountain, and his knees were submerged in the clouds."

"What giants? That must be an expert from the Zhan Wang (War King) clan, right? I heard that many forces in the starry sky have returned, and the ancestral land of the Zhan Wang clan is in Dongzhou."

"The storm is coming. So many experts are appearing in the world, which is really frightening for us small cultivators. If it weren't for the Yuanyang Decree issued by the Da Shi (Great Beginning) Holy Land, prohibiting experts from fighting on the earth, I'm afraid many people would have died in recent years."

......

Listening to the discussions around him, Qi Cang's eyes moved slightly: "The future doesn't seem to have changed yet. Emperor Yuanyang saw my memories, but he didn't make any changes?"

Qi Cang was very calm in his heart.

A thousand years of seclusion had completely calmed his heart.

"Is this the restaurant where Guanglong Supreme once stayed?"

Simple clothes could not hide his handsome face. Sun En stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the restaurant in the distance, with a hint of surprise in his heart:

"What's wrong with this restaurant..."

The restaurant occupied a large area, with three floors. Outside, there was a plain yellow wine flag, and a strong aroma of wine wafted out.

Qi Cang took a look and didn't notice anything, but Sun En was quite surprised.

There was nothing unusual about the restaurant, but it had a strong Han Hai (Great Desert) style, which was six or seven points similar to the 'Hanlong Inn' where he last stayed before ascending.

One must know that Ding'an City is not near the desert, and there is less sand, so this style is quite incongruous.

"Is there something wrong?" Qi Cang asked in a low voice.

"Perhaps I'm mistaken."

Sun En shook his head slightly and slowly ascended to the restaurant.

There were many cultivators in the restaurant. The discussions they had heard before also came from here. At this time, there were still many cultivators talking loudly.

Without the restrictions of elixirs, and no longer needing to run around for elixirs, many cultivators had too much free time. Gathering in groups of three or five was common.

After all, cultivation is not just about seclusion. People who can endure long-term seclusion will not be small cultivators.

The second and third floors of the restaurant were already full.

Sun En didn't care. He didn't intend to go to the second floor anyway. He glanced around and landed on a person in the corner.

The man was wearing a purple robe, tall and slender. A long knife leaned against his body, and he was drinking slowly.

This man had a majestic aura, with a domineering and heroic spirit. Although he was in the corner, it was as if he was in the center, the center of the world.

It seemed that no matter where he was, he would inevitably be the focus of everyone's attention.

The strange thing was that he was drinking by himself, but it seemed that no one saw him.

"Feng Xinglie!"

Seeing the man in purple, Qi Cang's face suddenly darkened. Although he had known who he was coming to see.

Seeing him for real still made him unable to calm down.

A thousand years ago, the two had fought, and he had suffered a crushing defeat. After advancing to the Feng Hou realm, they had fought again, but he was still no match. If it hadn't been for Sun En's help, he would have died at the hands of this person at that time.

He had rebuilt with the memories of his previous life, but he had been defeated twice by a 'junior'. How could he be calm?

"Brother Feng is in a good mood."

Sun En smiled slightly, stepped forward and sat down, not standing on ceremony, and poured himself some wine.

"Reincarnated with double pupils, you have found a good backer."

Feng Xinglie glanced at Sun En and said lightly: "It's been hundreds of years since we last met. Brother Sun's aura is becoming more and more unfathomable. It seems that the 'Huang Tian Da Fa' (Yellow Heaven Great Method) has reached a higher level."

His voice was like thunder, extremely powerful, but it didn't spread out, nor did it attract the attention of others.

"The road of cultivation is bitter and difficult. Brother Qi and I are just supporting each other forward. How can we talk about backer? Brother Feng's words are still so unpleasant."

Sun En didn't care, and glanced at Qi Cang, who calmed down.

"We cultivate for ourselves and for the Dao. What does it matter to me whether others like it or not?"

Feng Xinglie's tone was sonorous, and every word was like a knife, with a sharp edge: "Among the cultivators in this world, there are only a few who catch my eye. As for the rest of the trash, even if they don't like it, what can they do?"

"Feng Xinglie!"

Qi Cang's eyelids twitched, and a scarlet light flashed in his double pupils, but he still endured it.

Not long after, this Feng Xinglie would suffer the biggest setback of his life, and there was no need for him to conflict with him at this time.

"It seems that Brother Feng is about to break through that barrier?"

Sun En's eyes moved slightly.

Feng Xinglie is naturally a top figure in the world, but the imperial realm is vast, and there are eight continents and four seas outside Dongzhou, and there is a boundless starry sky.

Who knows what other experts are lurking?

However, Feng Xinglie is proud but not arrogant. He dares to say this, so he must have something to rely on.

"How easy is it to break through? Only when you truly reach this step can you know how amazing King Yuanyang is! In today's world where the world has changed drastically, we have not been able to advance an inch for hundreds of years. How difficult was it to become a Feng Wang before the world changed drastically?"

Feng Xinglie pinched the wine glass, his tone became flat, but there were flames burning in his eyes: "In this world, it is really our great fortune to meet such a hero!"

"Great fortune?"

Sun En nodded, agreeing in his heart.

Qi Cang was silent.

Although this Feng Xinglie is unruly and unpleasant, his talent and intelligence are unparalleled, and he is not a bully. Even more, his sword has always been directed at the stronger.

This can be seen from his three battles with Yuanyang, his bones are full of unruliness.

"Then what does Brother Feng want me to come here for?"

Sun En put down his wine glass and suddenly frowned slightly.

"Many people say that the great era is coming, but no one knows when this great era will come. Everyone is waiting, but unfortunately, I don't want to wait."

Feng Xinglie put down his wine glass, his long hair and purple shirt moved:

"Feng wants to be the first in the world!"
