Primordial Era: With unparalleled comprehension, I created three thousand demon realms.

"However, martial arts is universally recognized as the strongest path of cultivation in the primordial world, not for any other reason than that martial arts itself is the strongest," the Primordial Demon said in a deep voice.

"Even the demonic path can't compare?" Lin Xiu asked the Primordial Demon.

"As for the demonic path, it's hard to say. The three thousand great paths lead to the same destination, and no one knows how far they will ultimately go. This is true from any perspective. In the end, although there will still be differences, the differences will not be that great," the Primordial Demon said in a deep voice.

"However, the biggest characteristic of martial arts is that it leads directly to the Great Dao, without following the Heavenly Dao. Compared with martial arts, whether it is cultivating demons or immortals, martial arts leads directly to the Great Dao," the Primordial Demon said slowly.

"The Great Dao? The Heavenly Dao? What's the difference?" Lin Xiu asked with some curiosity.

"Is there a difference? Of course there is. If it's the Great Dao, one will be trapped at the peak of Quasi-Saint. If it's the Heavenly Dao, one will be trapped at the peak of Quasi-Saint. Without the Primordial Purple Qi, no matter how talented you are, you will never be able to take that step in the end," the Primordial Demon said with a smile.

Upon hearing the words of the Primal Demon, Lin Xiu's pupils contracted; this was even more terrifying than he had imagined.

"However, your path of demonic cultivation also points directly to the Great Dao, so you can rest assured about that," the Primordial Demon said with a smile.

"So, the hardest part of martial arts is getting started?" Lin Xiu wondered curiously.

"I suppose so. In martial arts, the hardest part isn't getting started. In the primordial world, getting started with martial arts was far easier than it is now. The hardest part of martial arts is willpower," the Primordial Demon said in a deep voice.

"Willpower?" Lin Xiu looked at the Primal Demon with some curiosity.

"Whether it's cultivating demonic arts or immortality, it's all about cultivating one's own primordial spirit. But martial arts is about cultivating one's will, one's own will. Martial arts is my way! To put it bluntly, it's about taking the path of nourishing oneself with all things in heaven and earth, and absorbing the power of the heavens into oneself. Compared to cultivating demonic arts or immortality, martial arts is more like plundering everything to nourish oneself," the Primordial Demon said in a deep voice.

"So that's how it is." Lin Xiu understood somewhat.

Whether it's cultivating immortality or demonic cultivation, they all borrow the power of heaven and earth. The higher the realm, the more power they can borrow.

However, martial arts, from the very beginning, are based on oneself. How strong one can be depends entirely on how much power one can contain.

If cultivating immortality and cultivating demonic arts are about borrowing the power of heaven and earth, then martial arts are about mastering the power of heaven and earth.

There is a fundamental difference.

"It's a pity that martial arts have been abandoned in this era," the Primal Demon said with some regret.

"Abandoned? Not necessarily." Lin Xiu shook his head.

The Primal Demon looked at Lin Xiu.

“Existence is its own justification. With so many people on Water Blue Star, it’s inevitable that some will choose the path of martial arts,” Lin Xiu said slowly.

Hearing Lin Xiu say this, the Primordial Demon stroked his chin. What Lin Xiu said didn't seem to make any mistakes. Martial arts, although difficult...

However, with a population exceeding 10 billion on the planet Blue, it's not surprising that one or two oddballs might embark on the path of martial arts.

"How does the current world compare to the primordial world?" Lin Xiu asked with some curiosity.

"Huh? Are you kidding me?" The Primal Demon looked at Lin Xiu with some curiosity.

"No, I just want to know what the primordial world was like," Lin Xiu said with a hint of anticipation.

"Is that so?" The Primal Demon looked at Lin Xiu, then spoke calmly. "You know that the current Blue Planet is ten times the size of the original one."

Lin Xiu nodded; this matter was no longer a secret.

"My garden is bigger than the current Blue Planet, don't you think?" the Primal Demon said irritably.

"Ah, this..." Lin Xiu looked at the Primal Demon.

"Do you think I'm joking?" the Primal Demon said calmly, looking at Lu Xihe who was fighting the Sea Dragon.

"No, I just didn't expect the primordial world to be so vast," Lin Xiu said with some emotion.

It wasn't that Lin Xiu was arrogant; rather, he felt that the current Blue Planet was already quite large, and even if it couldn't compare to the Primordial World, it wouldn't be much different.

"So it is, vast, boundless, infinite, this is the Primordial World. The Primordial World is much larger than you can imagine, it's not as simple as it seems," the Primordial Demon said in a deep voice.

Lin Xiu wanted to ask something else.

But then they heard the Primal Demon say something.

"It's about to end," the Primal Demon suddenly said.

Lin Xiu turned his gaze to the sea.

The once ferocious sea dragon was now charred black, while Lu Xihe was engulfed in golden solar fire, with countless golden flames cheering and leaping for joy.

Lin Xiu wasn't sure if it was just his imagination, but the sunlight seemed to be even more intense.

Golden flames constantly shifted and intertwined in Lu Xihe's hands.

It then transformed into the form of a three-legged golden crow.

"Hey!!!!" A crow's cry echoed through the heavens and earth.

The three-legged golden crow seemed to come alive, transforming into a golden ray that pierced through the sea dragon's body.

"Is it that strong?" Lin Xiu looked at Lu Xihe, somewhat bewildered.

"It's daytime. The Sun God is the deity who governs the day. Although she hasn't truly revived yet, she still holds considerable authority. During the day, her strength can increase without limit with each battle, unless you destroy the sun first," the Primordial Demon slowly explained, revealing the reason behind it all. "Isn't that cheating?" Lin Xiu said, somewhat exasperated.

"Cheating? That's someone's talent. If you're going to call it cheating, then I guess you could call it that," the Primal Demon said with a smile.

Lin Xiu felt a little numb.

According to the Primordial Demon, Lu Xihe could infinitely increase his combat power during the day, but there were limitations, namely, that he needed time to improve.

It's not a one-time improvement that's all at once.

Even so, it's not bad.

"Alright, kid, things are settled here. It's time to leave," the Primal Demon said to Lin Xiu.

Lin Xiu nodded and prepared to leave.

Now that the matter is resolved, it's time for me to leave, since I've devoured quite a few demonic beasts here.

Although he is a demon beast, he cultivates demonic arts, yet he is still a despised being.

Although the Dragon Kingdom has not explicitly stated that demonic cultivation is prohibited, frankly speaking, demonic cultivation is something that is generally rejected.

So Lin Xiu didn't want to get into any more trouble, so he left directly.

This is enough.

Lin Xiu also wanted to visit other coastal cities, hoping that he might be able to break through to the six-star level.

According to the Primordial Demon, the current era is changing too fast, and the Primordial Demon also had a premonition that as time goes by...

The revival of heaven and earth will accelerate, and perhaps the primordial world will reappear in this world, although this process may be quite long.

But that day will eventually come, no matter how you look at it.

As time goes by.

The battles between the major nations on the planet Water Blue gradually came to an end.

Some countries were wiped out after this disaster, while others struggled to survive, but no one knows what the final outcome will be.

Most of the small coastal countries were wiped out.

There's nothing we can do about it. Compared to large countries, which have the power to resist, these small countries can't even do that.

On one hand, it's a matter of strength; on the other hand, it's a matter of technology. At least for now, technology is still quite important to humanity.

This can be considered humanity's trump card now. Although times have changed, it doesn't mean that technology is necessarily obsolete.

Technology remains one of humanity's trump cards, but if it doesn't continue to advance, it will eventually become obsolete. Obsolescence doesn't mean technology is no longer viable, but rather that we haven't developed technology capable of adapting to the changing times.

The existence of the three thousand great paths is itself a matter of principle; this applies to every path.

Shanghai!!
Qin Rong squinted, observing the extent of the damage suffered by Shanghai in the attack by the sea monsters.

The military suffered tens of thousands of deaths, and the civilian resistance groups also lost many.
In short, although Shanghai managed to defend itself this time, it also suffered significant losses in its defensive capabilities, especially now.

The losses are significant for both Shanghai and other coastal cities in China.

Even more.

The good news is that things have calmed down in the sea area for the time being, and there shouldn't be any major problems in the short term.

The bad news is that the monsters on land are also starting to stir.

Compared to the monsters in the sea, the monsters on land pose a much greater problem.

The wilderness is now a no-go zone.

Just like the roads between the major cities in the Dragon Kingdom, except for a few specific ones, the rest have been abandoned - there's no other way if they aren't abandoned.

Firstly, the Dragon Kingdom didn't have enough manpower to guard all those roads, and the other roads were abandoned largely because of this.

It was due to the monsters on land.

Even so, the Dragon Kingdom would need to invest a great deal of time and manpower to protect a few specific national highways.

After all, those monsters are not to be trifled with; their occasional attacks are no joke.

The second reason is the distance issue. Originally, it was not a big problem, but after the changes on the Blue Planet, the distance increased tenfold, which also caused the distance between cities to increase tenfold. It is already considered good that they can still hold onto a few national highways.

Therefore, even the Dragon Kingdom can only maintain connections between cities by guarding a few specific national highways.

Of course, things are still relatively good in China. For example, in the United States, different cities are now charging their own tolls for transportation.

Relatively speaking, China is one of the few countries that still maintains order and discipline. (End of Chapter)
