Text Volume 1 The Pearls of Mystery_Chapter 2895 The Meaning of Hongmeng
The early era of Hongmeng.
\t
Between heaven and earth, there are only two forces, one is law and the other is matter.
In the primordial times, law and matter were vague and cloudy.
Over the course of a long period of time, matter has been transformed into various forms in the manner prescribed by the law.
The laws of heat, or cold, light, or darkness, order, or chaos, etc., affect the substance of the like.
This is the account of the beginning of all things in the library of the divine realm.
After that, the account becomes clear and full.
In the chaos of intertwining and changing law and matter, an unprecedented existence appeared, not stone, not magma, not wind, not water, but the most primordial, cloudy thinking creatures, they were born in the wilderness, died in the wilderness, and transformed the wilderness.
In the library, these oldest creatures are collectively referred to as the ancestors.
It was a long time, and many strange creatures were born, which evolved according to the most primitive laws, and went through many periods, these periods were very important in the eyes of the gods, and they were described in great detail, but in Meng Fan's view, these are not of great significance to today's sentient beings, in short, they can be boiled down to one sentence - for survival, savage growth.
The creatures of that era, that is, the ancestors, did not have any so-called pursuits, only the most basic and first needs - survival, so the weak eat the strong, so the survival of the fittest.
Therefore, the living beings at that time have gone through many periods, the first is the period of giant beasts, all the creatures are desperately growing bigger, pursuing pure power, and then there is the prosperous period, all the creatures begin to chase crazy reproduction, and then there is the period of eternal sleep, the period of migration, the period of bonelessness, the period of dehydration, and so on.
There are thousands of periods!
Each period has experienced hundreds of thousands of years to millions of years, and even the longest period, which lasted for fifty or sixty million years, is the period of dehydration, that period, because the laws of heaven and earth are in chaotic operation, suddenly the laws of light have become very powerful, causing most of the space of the entire universe to be exposed to strong sunlight, many stars, The sun has become more vigorous than ever, so there are flames and droughts everywhere, and many strange creatures have appeared, forced to master the water virtue method, dehydrate themselves, and enter eternal sleep.
In short, in the first billion years of the Hongmeng Taichu era, because of the chaos of the laws, there was no law at all, and the heavens and the earth were in fusion all the time, either prosperous or declining, very quickly, a large number of living beings perished, and a large number of new souls appeared, generation after generation.
But in this era, there is no suppression of the Supreme Heavenly Dao, all the laws, even within reach, some slightly powerful beings can naturally sense the existence of the law, and therefore a large number of monks have been born, and a large number of living beings have stepped into the martial arts.
It was the most primitive martial arts, which was rough and chaotic, and there was no systematic inheritance, no specific system, and no so-called "Dao".
Many martial arts are short-lived, and then disappear forever, and nothing has been handed down, only legends.
It's just that in the ancient legends that came very later, there was a kind of martial art that left a name, called "Hongjun Law".
The four words "Hongmeng Taichu" come from this. Hong refers to the Hongjun method, which is considered to be the first kind of martial arts in history, Meng, in the ancient text, is the meaning of ignorance, ambiguity, confusion, until today's humane text, the word Meng still has this kind of meaning.
With the passage of time, after a long period of more than a billion years of evolution, gradually, some monks who were strong enough finally appeared.
But at that time, there was no clear division of the realm and martial arts system, so it was impossible to judge what realm those ancient monks were.
However, from the records of a few words, Meng Fan saw that these ancient monks could gain insight into the operation of the laws of heaven and earth, so Meng Fan deduced that it was at least the Tianyuan realm.
These ancient monks, using their control of the law and official property, began to establish a happy land and stabilize the law in the chaotic world.
Thus some small but peaceful worlds were born, and many of these worlds were only equivalent to the size of some mortal kingdoms today, and the so-called vast territory was just an empire of thousands of miles, less than ten thousand miles.
But this is where it all began.
It is these ancestors who have accounted for a large part of the luck component due to various coincidences and have not been washed away by the chaotic law world, which have made a start for the desolate civilization of the entire universe.
When some kingdoms and empires appear, there will be an inevitable tendency for these kingdoms or empires to expand.
But the interesting thing is that after the kingdom of the ancestors bordered the empire, the war that should have broken out did not break out, they lived in the cruel world for too long, knowing that any seemingly powerful empire could not withstand a large-scale fluctuation of the law, maybe a dark law rises, the earth will fall into tens of thousands of years of darkness, and the living beings will wither, maybe a swelling of the soul, sentient beings will begin to age rapidly, and then die.
Therefore, after the ancestors met, they often chose to join forces rather than war.
They joined forces to make the ancient, primitive, and fragile civilization bigger, pondering the laws of heaven and earth together, and discussing ways to master the laws of heaven and earth.
The powerful ancestors became the protection of the weak creatures, and the weak creatures supported the ancestors with sacrifices or other things, so that the ancestors could concentrate on studying the laws of heaven and earth.
The power of faith was also born in that era.
Here, what surprised Meng Fan slightly was that in that era, there was vitality.
So why, later, the vitality of heaven and earth was completely depleted?
Meng Fan continued to flip through.
In that era, although the Yuan Qi existed, because of the problem of fluctuations in the law, the Yuan Qi would sometimes be very strong, and all sentient beings would break through the realm one after another and become monks, and sometimes the Yuan Qi would be depleted to the point that there was not much left, and sentient beings would even have a problem with breathing.
And the emergence of the power of faith allowed the ancestors to survive without relying on vitality.
The ancestors became "gods".
The ancestors continued to study the laws, refine the laws, and build a stable world.
In those days, there was no such thing as a "dimension".
All living beings can travel to all parts of the universe at will, and the only thing that can stop them is distance.
Therefore, the ancestors of the Tianyuan Realm and the Xuanyuan Realm gathered together from distant places to live together.
Among them, it is not always peaceful, because of the fluctuation of the law, there have been several great catastrophes in the universe, and a large number of ancestors have fallen, or cannibalism in order to grab limited resources, but as long as the law is a little more stable, the ancestors will stop fighting and continue to study the law.
In order to build a civilized and stable world, the ancestors tried many methods, and in the end, the ancestors determined two paths, one is to calculate the operation law of the laws of heaven and earth, in order to make preparations before the laws fluctuate violently, this path is very conservative and passive.
The second, in that primitive era, was ambitious.
It is to control the laws of heaven and earth!
This road seems very radical, and in the eyes of the ancestors, it also seems like a fantasy.
But they're all working in that direction.
Failure after failure, but they didn't give up.
Until the end, many ancestors created a magic weapon.
The name of this magic weapon has only one word - "Yi".
The ancestors used this magic weapon to slightly calculate the operation law of the laws of heaven and earth, although it was very primitive, very crude, and often inaccurate calculations, but the ancestors were still excited.
