462, Linghe School
Jiang Tianyuan knew that Ling Li had advanced to Nirvana Realm and had six or seven powerful witch demon clans in Nirvana Realm. If this was not the case, he would not have taken Ling Li there. If his strength was not enough, young elites like him who still graduated should be given priority protection and would be released only after they grow up.
"Is the insect tide going south?" Ling Li asked.
Jiang Tianyuan nodded, "It is indeed gradually moving south, but due to the barriers between mountains and plateaus, the situation is fine. The current crisis mainly comes from the sea. Many species of alien insects are in the water without any obstacles."
Ling Li suddenly asked a question, "Why did Beiyan leave the Eastern Region Federation back then?"
The Northern Yan Empire was also a member of the Eastern Region Federation at the beginning of the end of the Dark Age, but it was split from the Union more than 50 years ago. As for the reason, the records in the Eastern Region were because Fu Tao, the first emperor of the Northern Yan Empire, had expanded his personal ambitions, but Ling Li believed that things would definitely not be so simple.
Jiang Tianyuan was silent for a moment before saying, "It was mainly different in concepts. Fu Tao was because of the conflict with the Zhongzhou School... In fact, the real leader of that incident back then should be Shen Kang and a group of people. Shen Kang was the chief biological scientist of the Federal Academy of Sciences and one of the pioneers of the new martial arts era... In fact, the earliest national cultivation method was compiled by Shen Kang, who was the leader of Shen Yiwen after the incident... "
"Shen Kang?" Ling Li was the first to hear about this name.
"Yes." Jiang Tianyuan said: "In fact, the concept of cultivation is a way to promote human self-evolution. The concept was first proposed by Shen Kang. He has made many outstanding contributions to the cultivation system, gene theory, biopharmaceuticals and other fields in the new martial arts era in the East Region. They seemed to have had serious differences with the mainstream consciousness of the federal government after exploring the Changbai Secret Realm, and finally chose to leave the federal government... They must have mastered some unknown secrets."
"Are Fu Tao and Shen Kang still alive? Haven't you heard of them for so many years?" Ling Li asked.
"I don't know... it shouldn't be." Jiang Tianyuan shook his head, "Fu Tao has been emperor for only fifteen years and passed the throne to his son. He has never heard of these two people again. But these two people are very strong, and they were top-notch existences in the federal back then. If nothing unexpected happens, living in three or four hundred years old shouldn't be much of a problem."
With the recovery of source energy and the arrival of the martial arts era, the maximum life span of humans on the Chiyan Continent has been extended from 160 years old to nearly 500 years old. Of course, this is also the theoretical result calculated in the laboratory.
Because it has not been five hundred years since the beginning of the Cataclysm, and it is impossible to verify the authenticity of this inference.
But this is a fact that the average life span of humans has been greatly extended.
The Northern Yan Empire was mainly in conflict with the Zhongzhou and the southern sects, and the relationship between the two major military prefectures was still good. In the face of this disaster, the experts from You, Gang, Ji and Yongzhou were invited to explore the newly discovered ancient ruins together, which was to intentionally restore the relationship with the major military prefectures in the northern federal.
The void crack first appeared in the North and South Poles. When the news came, the interior of the Eastern Region Federation also became a little confused.
Although there is a history of the catastrophe last, this time, everyone still doesn’t know how to deal with it.
The five states of You, Yong, Ji and Yi jointly put pressure on the Federal Parliament to reintegrate the armies of the federal states, but the competition for leadership was extremely fierce, and no one was willing to give in, and as a result, no cooperation could be reached.
When disaster comes, human beings are still fighting for power and interests.
The latest news is that in Nanliga and Alika, some powerful monsters have arrived in the world and regard human beings as food. There have been two towns, both of which have become hell on earth.
When the news came, the strong men who knew the news were worried about it.
The two destroyed towns had a population of more than 100,000. The powerful men with Nirvana Realm were guarded, but they were still wiped out. No one could survive, just as the end of the world was coming.
The unknown is the most terrifying thing.
Not only the insect tide, but this time unknown monsters and monsters have already joined in, the situation suddenly becomes very serious, and the environment for human survival is under great threat.
This world is undergoing drastic changes.
At this time, Ling Li had already met with more than a dozen Nirvana realm powerhouses from the Western Qin Palace and was preparing to go to Chengtian City, the royal capital of the Northern Yan Kingdom.
The Northern Yan Kingdom is in the northeast of the Eastern Region, with a land area of less than 26 million square kilometers, which is about one-twentieth of the Eastern Region Federation. Starting from Wuyuan City, heading northeastward, along the southern part of the Tangnu Plateau, crossing Feihu Mountain, and entering the boundary of the Northern Yan Empire.
The world itself is big.
Due to the catastrophe, the population has dropped sharply and it seems to be vast and sparsely populated everywhere, even Zhongzhou, which has the largest population. The Northern Yan Kingdom has more than 30 million people, and ordinary people mainly live in surrounding areas based on twenty-one cities, while most of the rest are unmanned areas.
In contrast, the Western Qin Prefecture has 56 cities with a population of more than 80 million, which is nearly three times the area of Northern Yan State. In fact, most places are more desolate than Northern Yan State.
This world now has about 3 billion people, and the eastern region accounts for one-third.
The nine prefectures in the Eastern Region are the largest population in Zhongzhou, with more than 120 million people, so it is also the most powerful prefecture in the Eastern Region Federation.
The number of people determines the base of those who have strong people.
Although this is not absolute, it is generally the case.
The population itself is one of the important indexes of whether a country or region has a strong overall national strength.
More people and more power!
The most fundamental way to weaken a country or nation is to try your best to prevent them from having children and their population will begin to grow negatively.
This is called cutting off the firewood from the bottom of the pot.
Beiyan was the last player in the Eastern Region Federation at the time.
On the contrary, after leaving the Federation, its strength gradually grew. Now it can rank in the middle reaches, not as good as Zhongzhou, Xiqin Prefecture and Youzhou, but it is stronger than the three states of Gong, Ji and Hai.
After the news that the secret realm of the White Horse Ice Field was about to be opened, many practitioners from the Eastern Region had gathered in the Northern Yan Kingdom.
More than a hundred and dozens of figures appeared in the blue sky like a group of fighter planes that had taken off the sky.
The scenes of extraordinary people traveling together are out of reach for ordinary warriors. It is very rare to see such scenes during the day, and they are enough to become their topic of conversation in the future.
The Linghe Sect had already received the notice in advance and sent several extraordinary realms out of the city to welcome the arrival of the strong men from the Western Qin Mansion.
Chishan City is the foundation of the Linghe Sect and is also the control area of this Northern Yan Super Sect.
Jiang Tianyuan and the Xiqin Mansion did not enter the city, but came to a steep mountain outside the city.
Cultivators in the extraordinary realm regard themselves as immortals and do not live with ordinary people.
The Linghe Sect is not weak, and it is also a large sect in the Northern Yan sect, quite powerful, but in terms of foundation and number of strong people, there is still a certain gap with the top sects in the Eastern Region.
The mountain where the Linghe Sect is located is not too far away, but is nearly a hundred miles away.
The mountains are very common. Looking around, you can see the vast snow-capped mountains and forests, and the scenery is also very common in the northern border.
It looks ordinary.
Several middle-aged practitioners led everyone up the mountain together.
The only elder in the head of the cave realm seemed to know Jiang Tianyuan and the Jiuyuan Guard Liang Xingzong. While walking, he introduced the situation of the sect to the two of them with a humble attitude.
When he approached the mountain, Ling Li realized something strange, "Is there a mountain protection formation?"
"Haha, it's just an ordinary illusion array, so that ordinary people can't accidentally break into the vicinity of the sect." The elder of the Cave Void Realm explained to Ling Li with a smile.
Ling Li didn't say anything anymore, and it would be impolite to inquire about other people's mountain protection formations.
The people from the Western Qin Mansion followed several Linghe Sect members and passed the sect-protecting illusion array to the top of the mountain.
On the top of the mountain is a very neat bluestone platform. There is only a small Taoist temple on it, with about a dozen houses, and the courtyard doesn't look big.
Everyone stood in a Bagua formation in the Taoist courtyard.
The elder took out tokens in his hand and held them in his hand.
At this time, the energy of heaven and earth at the top of the mountain was rippling like water waves, and a portal emerged in the sky. Afterwards, the light gate flashed, covering everyone. The next moment, Ling Li felt that he was already in a secret space, and in front of him was a magnificent Taoist palace-style building complex.
Ling Li exuded his spiritual consciousness and felt it slightly.
The interior of this secret realm space is much smaller than that of the Nine Mysterious Realm, with a diameter of about ten kilometers.
However, it is as warm as spring, and the architecture and scenery are also very exquisite. The empty mountains and streams are gurgling, like a huge garden.
A small river winds through the foot of the ancient Daogong Mountain.
The river is covered with green trees, birds sing and flowers scent, and the ancient Taoist palace exudes the vicissitudes of time.
It is indeed a paradise and a fairyland on earth.
There are many people gathering in the Bluestone Square in front of the Taoist Palace at this moment, welcoming the visit of the people of the Xiqin Mansion.
As everyone stepped into the square from the teleportation point, the next moment, the old man dressed as a Taoist priest suddenly smiled and clasped his fists and said, "Jiang Zhenshou, Liang Zhenshou and a group of friends from the Qin Mansion came to the vulgar school. It was so glorious and honorable."
Jiang Tianyuan also clasped his fists and smiled, "I'm sorry, Brother Liu, wait here personally, and I'm flattered. You and my brother have not met for several years!"
The few people first made a few remarks, and Ling Li realized that this old Taoist was Liu Yunge, the head of the Linghe Sect.
Before the catastrophe, the Linghe Sect was an unknown Taoist temple. It was discovered in the dark age of Chishan City and was inherited from ancient times. It was only in the past hundred years that it rose to become a famous sect in the eastern region. Compared with those super sects and families that have been passed down for a long time, it has a slight lack of foundation.
