When Li Qing returned, eighty years had passed on this land.
The two great celestial phenona continued to develop rapidly, competing against each other. The Ancient Tree constructed the Nine Layers of Celestial Tribulation, while the Ancient Dragon constructed the Abyssal Realm.
Yet, the Abyssal Realm was far from the vastness of the origin continent of the Ancient Tree, it resembled an underground dark river, allowing the Ancient Dragon to move freely, swimming and roaming in this abyssal sea.
Even, in a certain generation, they began to call themselves Abyss Monarch Emperor, donning the Six-pronged Thorn Crown and the Demon Abyss Armor.
He sat on the throne at the infinite bottom of the Abyssal Demon Realm, looking up at the world of the Heavens above, with light spilling into the Abyssal Ocean.
"Hmph, simply ridiculous."
"The true Nokron is not dead, I fear it's almost ti for revival. You are nothing but demon remnants stemming from that one, daring to impersonate the original?"
"Just evil assembled from demon remnants! Pretending to be human?"
"Ancient Dragon, Ancient Tree, seemingly two great camps, yet the Ancient Dragon is much weaker, the Ancient Tree is the origin that nurtures the cosmos and heavens. What of the Ancient Dragon? A pest, rely a story of a giant tree with woodworms growing on its roots, trying to rot your roots."
"The Ancient Tree, is the true guardian of the celestial phenona, the universe's umbrella!"
It is said that in the Upper Realm of the origin continent, a new small power has erged, nad Umbrella Corporation, with an official nad Wadon.
"Another great era is arriving, that past fist Nokron, the Dream Garnt Divine King traversing endless space-ti, also seeks to protect the beloved, likely to be resurrected in this great era!"
Countless people were discussing it.
This era is destined to be a world where everyone seeks immortality.
The future developnt, even Li Qing is unsure of.
Because of the chaotic logic of those two celestial phenona, who knows what they are thinking? How they will guide the cosmos?
Without controlling the Crystal Wall, he is truly a physical lifeform, Nokron.
In general, he dares not control the Crystal Wall, as it would surely expose him, he basically uses only the most basic function, the Crystal Wall's cara.
"In this great era, perhaps even the ancient era's Divine King Elis may not have died, and is about to be resurrected!"
"Indeed, now, the upper and lower realms are beginning to be turbulent, it is said that they are also beginning to contest for territories in all heavens and myriads of realms, letting the younger generation ascend to their worlds!"
Soone was speculating on the developnt of the era.
In the past, there was great terror in that splendid mythical era.
The battle of that year was mysterious, with young future transmigrators, the Emperor, Atabia, and Herodotus observing, with their portraits spread throughout the lands.
So even speculate that these achievers who transcended prehistory might already live in this era and will fully rise to beco the next generation of Bai Suo and Dark Fan.
The new three Supre Divine Kings will be born, in the new era gathering together to beco the three giants, and complete the three great maps.
"In the past, the incomplete first-level map was already comparable to the Sixth Layer of Ancient Gods."
"If it's a complete first-level Divine Map, it might be comparable to the Ninth Layer of Ancient Gods, nine second-level maps are required to match one of theirs!"
In short, the protagonists who ascended, including the side role Nokron and the black army of internet trolls, were being sought by the world.
Li Qing ignored them and returned to his daily life.
Continuing to slack off.
Occasionally playing the role of a troll, engaging in online argunts between the two camps, stirring public opinion.
Until that day.
Year 1002 of the Ancient Tree Era.
A ssage arrived, Divine King Geb was about to fall, on the verge of exhaustion.
This ancient Divine King, a bearer of the era, had lived most of his lifespan, in the new era could only live an additional thousand years, was about to fall, being assimilated and eroded into a celestial phenonon by the Celestial Humans.
The people felt sowhat regretful upon hearing.
Divine King Geb, during his tenure, was very moderate, seeming to take no grand actions, but actually led people to recover and thrive, his contributions were indispensable.
As a Divine King mainly of the earth system, he spent his life running across this ruin, restoring soil environnts, reconstructing various parts of the continent, considered dutiful and responsible, truly a "cleansing" expert.
Thus, many people admired but also regretted the fall of this figure.
He did not pursue immortality in his later years, causing chaos and issuing various decrees, but quietly chose to die of old age, inherently overcoming the ambition of living a second life.
"The stronger the existence, the more terrifying the demon remnant after death. This one falling, it is feared, will cause a great catastrophe..."
"Alas, is it gathering the world's heroes to prepare to deal with this one's remains?"
"This is our fate, mastering the authority of the cosmos, but human consciousness can't withstand such overwhelming information, slowly becoming celestial humans."
"It is said that it's not about handling his remains, but the origin Ancient Tree has new ans to control these demon remnants, turning Divine King Geb into a Ferryman."
"Ferryman??"
The people were slightly surprised.
The Ancient Tree, being the biggest natural celestial phenonon, naturally has ans to control smaller celestial phenona.
...
At this ti.
The origin Ancient Tree.
Two elders on the treetop, overlooking the vast and boundless continent.
Divine King Tang Xia sighed deeply, "In our lifeti, we have been witnesses, it's been rather magnificent."
"Indeed, we two are fortunate to witness those peerless figures."
Divine King Geb, in his later years, was already a white-haired old man, exuding a foul stench, decrepit sitting on the throne, "At least, I am the first generation Divine King to die of natural causes."
"That's true." Tang Xia smiled, "Peace and safety are good."
Geb laughed, "In our youth, we worked under the Inspection Bureau, Nokron was the Mansion Lord, Minshan was the Vice Mansion Lord, we were responsible for going down to cleanse the land, now Minshan Divine King has beco a Ferryman, inheriting the mission of the Inspection Bureau, sweeping the cosmos, I will follow that road."
"Yes, this is our fate." Tang Xia smiled.
A thousand years is truly nothing to the Lower Realm, but they are indeed about to reach their end.
"This is quite good too, history will rember my na." The elderly Geb laboriously stood up, stepping down from the throne, carefully observing everything on this ancient tree, his hand caressing the textured wood of the mottled ancient tree.
His eyes suddenly blurred.
The many gods on the ancient tree in that year, even the Inspection Bureau on that branch, the white-robed scholar fishing the heavens below from the leaves, seed just a mirage.
Now he had truly reached the end of his life, the leaves above rustled, the sound of nature surprisingly brought a sense of warmth to him.
"A thousand years in the Upper Realm, billions in the Lower Realm... I wonder if in such long years, that one has been reborn."
He gazed afar, looking down at the all heavens and myriads of realms below, recalling everything he saw in his youth traversing the heavens, the beginning of life, born on a planet outside the subspace, resurrecting his father amidst war.
In old age, one's heart often holds complexity, recalling many past regrets.
The story of Minshan Divine King, he later heard from her daughter, unexpectedly that one was also a pitiable person.
"Alas." Geb muttered.
Suddenly, at the base of the ancient tree's thick trunk, appeared a black-cloaked figure.
The dappled light from the leaves cast fragnted shadows, illuminating the man who raised his head, his face extraordinarily familiar.
"That is..." Geb's cloudy eyes flashed with brilliance, suddenly speechless.
"It is I, I have returned." The familiar voice ca, Nokron walked up this ancient tree nurturing the cosmos and all heavens and myriads of realms.
