Chapter 276: Chapter 256 When the Stars of the Human Race Shine_2

Candle Shadow Swinging Red: "You also have placeholders in here. The conflict between Dao and Demon does not constitute a complete calamity cycle. Or rather, the conflict between Dao and Demon is the ending of the Dragon-Han calamity, continuing the tail end of it,

because the conflict between Dao and Demon affected only a few powerful beings, impacting only Hong Jun, Luo Hou, Yin and Yang, Qian Kun, and a few other major figures."

Similarly, a single ’Journey to the West’ cannot be considered a calamity cycle. ’Journey to the West’ is merely the beginning of a calamity cycle, which is not completed until Wu Tian is defeated."

Mu Chuanye: "In fact, the era of the ’Journey to the West’ had the highest combat power in the entire Vast Wilderness, despite the world being smaller and weaker, but the mighty were far superior to those of earlier eras.

It’s a pity that there were too many rules, turning a good ’Journey to the West’ into something so unimpressive."

Verdant Slimness and Red Reduced Begonia Remains: "The whole world indeed gets weaker as time progresses because the heaven and earth are flawed, like leaking water, with spiritual energy diminishing and gradually drying up.

When spiritual energy becomes severely depleted, the myriad immortals and Buddhas no longer perform miracles and struggle to preserve themselves.

Later, becoming an immortal becomes difficult, unable to cultivate higher realms, and then comes the impossibility of orthodox cultivation, having to resort to methods from obscure traditions, such as becoming zombies, while orthodox folks, like Uncle Jiu, can at most capture ghosts and manage corpses.

Until cultivation itself turned into mere illusions and trickery, incapable of real practice.

Although martial arts gradually came into popularity, it was just the dying light of cultivation, left with nothing but the operation of kinetic forces, the explicit and dark energies of national arts."

Eventually, even martial arts became ineffective. The age of firearms arrived, the era of technology prospered, and though people lived comfortably, their hearts grew greedy and indulgent.

It’s said that extreme negative gives rise to extreme positive, but has it really come?"

A Bowl And Done: "What you’re talking about is the Last Dharma calamity that follows the ’Journey to the West’. According to the mythological worldview, ’extreme negative gives rise to extreme positive’ refers to the resurgence of spiritual energy after the absolute depletion of the Last Dharma, like a mythical world glowing briefly before ultimately entering into the limitless calamity of destruction."

"Is this truly the future?" Sun Wukong read these comments, scratched his face thoughtfully, and couldn’t help feeling a sense of crisis.

If it really is so, then future strategies must be well-planned.

At this moment, there were new replies.

Watermelon Giant: "Referring to the Divine Enthronement calamity, since the Han dynasty is targeted by the Heavenly Dao, the Tianzhu in the West should receive assistance from various forces like the Great Zhou did, akin to the Chan Teaching, this lapdog of the Heavenly Dao, perhaps helping the Buddha Sect."

Imperial City Lights: "There’s a 99% chance, especially since Monkey Bro has deep grudges with the Chan Teaching, and the Han dynasty is the human dynasty he personally supported."

Dragon’s Breath Glory: "The Han dynasty also has allies. The Heavenly Court might be a bit risky, needing to consider the Heavenly Dao and probably won’t enter the fray directly, but the earlier Dragon Race and the myriad tribal totems, all tied together with the Han dynasty, will definitely move forward or retreat together."

Green Fall Conference: "The Han dynasty itself is not weak. Martial arts have been promoted for over a hundred years, and the overall strength has improved dramatically."

"Chan Teaching?" A fierce spark flashed in Sun Wukong’s eyes. Given the historical behavior of the Chan Teaching, there was indeed a high likelihood of them assisting the Buddha Sect.

After all, during the Divine Enthronement calamity, the Chan Teaching had once invited the Western Two Saints to intervene.

Thus, caution is indeed necessary.

Meteorite Wreckage: "I noticed an interesting point. Calculate the time, and it’s been about two hundred years since Liu Xiu revived the Han dynasty. It must be the Late Eastern Han Dynasty now!!!"

The Real Wasteland: "Damn, the Late Eastern Han Dynasty divides into Three Kingdoms, really a time when the human stars shine brightly!"

Night’s Hime in Eternal Night: "Then there’s fun to be had Omitting mythological powers, the three major groups of Cao, Liu, and Sun could flatten the Western Niu Hezhou!"

Six-Eyed Cat: "From the moment the Han became the ruling dynasty, history has already changed, but hopefully, the inertia of history remains. I hope the multitude of exceptional figures from the Wei, Shu, and Wu families haven’t been erased by the timeline."

Seeing these few replies, Sun Wukong was surprised, a time when human stars shine brightly?

Obviously, these netizens are referring to the original history, but what about this era excites them so much?

A multitude of exceptional people?

Run Fast DeDe: "Cao Wei’s group includes Cao Cao, Cao Pi, Xun Yu, Guo Jia, Xun You, Cheng Yu, Jia Xu, Shi Mayi, Dian Wei, Xu Chu, Xia Houdun, and the Five elite generals Zhang Liao, Zhang He, Xu Huang, and others.

Cao Mengde has too many strategists and warriors under his command, countless, literally countless."

Xiaoge: "The Shu Han group includes Liu Bei, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhu Geliang, Pang Tong, Fa Zheng, Zhao Yun, Ma Chao, Huang Zhong, Wei Yan..."

Kung Fu Pit: "The Sun Wu group includes Sun Quan, Zhou Yu, Lu Meng, Lu Su, Lu Xun, Tai Shici, Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, Gan Ning..."

"Hey, that’s a lot." Sun Wukong scratched his head, reckoning that if all these people were capable, then it indeed would be the time when the stars of the Human Race shone brightly.

Traces of Dusk: "Let’s not forget Lu Bu. This fierce warrior was tragic in the original timeline, but now, with the martial arts thriving in the great Han, given his martial prowess, he probably wouldn’t fare badly."

Bookworm: "Lu Fengxian is terrible at personal relationships, a man with a vendetta does not thrive anywhere."

Ying Ding: "Let Monkey bro teach him how to be a man, take him as an apprentice, nurture him well, and he should shine brightly in a mythological world."

Restrained Metamorphosis: "Take Zhu Geliang along, with such a balance between the pen and the sword, Monkey bro wouldn’t have to worry about a thing."

[You received a new suggestion: Take Lu Bu as an apprentice, completing the suggestion may earn you a second-tier treasure chest]

[You received a new suggestion: Take Zhu Geliang as an apprentice, completing the suggestion may earn you a fourth-tier treasure chest]

"Oh, taking Zhu Geliang is harder?" Sun Wukong was surprised. Judging by the netizens’ responses, Lu Bu seemed more exceptional.

He decided to later seek out Liu Xiu, inquiring whether these people existed in the world as in the original history, and whether they were all talented.

There were several more responses.

Emperor of the Dark Prison: "These powerhouses carry their own fortunes; they might have already made a name for themselves without Monkey bro’s nurturing."

Little Monster Fighting Ultraman: "Regardless, with them around, the great Han could surely push West."

Son A: "Go hard, Monkey bro, completely conquer the Western Bull-He Continent, turn it into ours since forever!"

[You received a new suggestion: Conquer the Western Bull-He Continent, completing the suggestion may earn you an eighth-tier treasure chest]

"Hehe, that’s exactly what Old Sun likes!" Sun Wukong grinned broadly.

If the Buddha Sect and Tianzhu dared to invade the territory of the Demon King, the great Han would have a reason to send troops because the Mang Bull clan was the second-tier totem of the Human Race conferred by the great Han and was also among the twelve zodiacs.

Afterwards, he called Liu Xiu, who was in seclusion practicing martial arts, to inquire about the current situation of the great Han.

Liu Xiu smiled, "Thanks to my master’s teachings, after the promotion of the great Han dynasty, I established the cabinet and delegated almost all my power to the ministers in the court."

A hundred years ago when martial arts were promoted, I also set up the first century talent plan, gathering talents for the great Han."

Now, the territory of the great Han is no longer sparse, and the entire Nan Shan region comprises three thousand six hundred counties owned by the great Han."

Agribusiness and various other trades thrive, and various industrial technologies will soon spread to all counties. Although the people can’t live in absolute peace and happiness, they can at least have enough food and clothing."

Besides, martial arts are increasingly prospering. Apart from me, a True God, there are two Heavenly Gods, and beneath the Heavenly Gods, there are millions of martial artists. With more time, even more martial artists will break through to Heavenly God status."

Sun Wukong nodded, acknowledging that despite the great Han’s large population, the implementation of martial arts was ultimately relatively recent.

Next, he inquired about the powerhouses the netizens mentioned earlier.

After listening, Liu Xiu laughed, "Master, why are you suddenly concerned about these younger generations of the Human Race?"

Sun Wukong seriously said, "Just recently, in the Western Bull-He Continent, those kingdoms, with the help of the Buddha Sect, established a Tianzhu dynasty. They want to compete with the great Han for the fate of humanity. If we do not respond promptly, there will be trouble in the future."

Liu Xiu’s expression changed, realizing the seriousness of the matter, and he hastily said, "Master, hold on, I will call the three chancellors from the cabinet."

In recent years, he had spent most of his time in seclusion practicing martial arts, and the affairs of the world were usually decided by the successive cabinets, except in major matters where he, as the King, would intervene.

Soon, the three current chancellors of the great Han entered the Ancestral Martial Palace.

Upon entering, they first saw Liu Xiu and immediately bowed, saying, "Minister Cao Cao, Liu Bei, Sun Jian, greet the King."
