Human Clan Defender-Chapter 672 - s You Have Arrived, Primordial Emperor Era (Four-in-One Request for Monthly Pass)_4

Since the other party was willing to speak, he was willing to listen.

It was a perfect opportunity to learn some ancient secrets from him.

Who knows, it might be greatly beneficial to me.

"The Human Clan has existed for a very long time. Exactly how long, even I am not quite certain. Back then, Heaven and Earth were fraught with various perils, and the Human Clan appeared particularly vulnerable when facing these dangers.

"Almost every day, many members of the Human Clan would die at the hands of these perils, be it ferocious beasts, natural disasters, or other things.

"Later, some ancestors of the Human Clan pondered the powers of Heaven and Earth, absorbed Spiritual Energy, and forged their bodies, gradually gaining the ability to counter those dangers.

"Afterward, that ancestor spread this method, popularizing it throughout the entire Human Clan.

"That method came to be known as Martial Dao, and that year was also called the First Year of Martial Dao.

"With the widespread practice of Martial Dao, all members of the Human Clan were able to draw from nature's spiritual energy to nourish themselves and temper their bodies. Among them, those with talent could ascend to another level.

"Unfortunately, the human Flesh ultimately had its limits.

"Even the ancestor of the Human Clan who created Martial Dao couldn't break through those limits and ultimately had to pass away dejectedly."

Enveloped in a hazy aura, the Mount Tai Prefecture Lord's facial expression was indiscernible. But from his calm, narrating voice, Shen Changqing gradually learned some things.

He didn't interrupt, instead letting the other party continue.

"Human desires are insatiable. They started with the wish to be free from danger, then progressed to seeking stronger powers with the advent of Martial Dao, and ultimately, they aspired for immortality.

"However, while Martial Dao could allow the Human Clan to be free from danger and possess great power, it could not grant them immortality. 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮

"Thus, generations of Human Clan ancestors began to search for a path to immortality on the foundation of Martial Dao."

The voice of the Mount Tai Prefecture Lord grew more solemn.

Listening to this, Shen Changqing couldn't help but ask, "Senior, the method you speak of, could it be Destiny Sealing the Gods?"

By now, he was almost certain of the Mount Tai Prefecture Lord's identity as an Ancient Powerhouse. Therefore, in addressing him, he switched to the respectful term 'Senior,' which the other party indeed deserved.

Hearing this, the Mount Tai Prefecture Lord nodded. "Yes, it is Destiny Sealing the Gods.

"The one who truly discovered Destiny Sealing the Gods was the leader of the Human Clan at that time—Primordial Emperor. He refined a portion of the Human Clan's destiny, breaking through to a higher level, thereby extending his lifespan.

"From then on, the method of Destiny Sealing the Gods spread completely."

"Primordial Emperor!"

Shen Changqing's expression changed slightly. He thought of something and couldn't help but voice a doubt.

"Isn't it said that an Emperor's lifespan is decreed by Heaven and immortality is unattainable?"

Shen Changqing had heard these words from Gu Xuanji. Since Emperor Qin himself had already perished, there was certainly no possibility Gu Xuanji had deceived him.

The Mount Tai Prefecture Lord said, "In that era, Emperors were not only the masters of the Human Clan, but because the Human Clan ruled Heaven and Earth, Emperors were also the rulers of Heaven and Earth. How could Heaven and Earth have the authority to determine an Emperor's lifespan?

"The notion that immortality is unattainable is even more laughable."

At these words, Shen Changqing fell silent.

The Ancient Times differed greatly from the present. From the Lord's words, he could tell that the Emperors of that era could indeed achieve immortality. As for why it was no longer possible, he did not know for the time being.

While Shen Changqing was quietly digesting the information, the Mount Tai Prefecture Lord continued to speak.

"Since Primordial Emperor realized the method of Destiny Sealing the Gods, its Dharma spread, creating a frenzy throughout the entire Human Clan.

"To the powerhouses of that era, immortality was their greatest obsession.

"The ability of Destiny Sealing the Gods to break the shackles of lifespan became the only way out for those powerhouses.

"So—the moment the Dharma spread, the situation completely collapsed. Even Primordial Emperor hadn't anticipated that the method of Destiny Sealing the Gods would cause such a tremendous upheaval.

"The unified Human Clan began to fracture.

"Everyone was plundering territories, attempting to achieve Coagulation of the Human Clan's destiny, and then its Refinement, in order to transcend their own limits.

"At the same time, those who could not plunder territories began to find other ways to accumulate destiny.

"Some tamed ferocious beasts, hoping to nurture them until they possessed Spirit Intellect, while others created secret techniques, using themselves as a foundation to create new races."

The Mount Tai Prefecture Lord's voice grew impassioned.

"That was the most glorious era of the Human Clan. Despite the division and lack of unity as in the past, numerous powerhouses emerged, one after another, and new races sprung forth from Heaven and Earth.

"Moreover, since those races were created by the Human Clan's powerhouses, these newly born races were also subservient to the Human Clan.

"For a time, the power of the Human Clan could be said to have increased immensely.

"At that time, the Human Clan was supreme. All other emerging races of the Myriad Clans were subservient to the Human Clan, driven by them. In that period, powerhouses of the Grandmaster Realm were countless, and those of the Domain Realm were also numerous.

"Even subsequent powerhouses of the Saint Realm and God Realm existed."

The Mount Tai Prefecture Lord's tone was excited. He seemed to see again the glorious days of yore, when the Human Clan was at its most powerful—the strongest period in its entire history.

From the Lord's words, Shen Changqing also sensed the power of the Human Clan during the Ancient Times.

The Domain Realm is comparable to a Great Demon. The Saint Realm then would likely compare to a Demon Saint. And the God Realm...
