God of Pets

Chapter 599 Different Generations
"What is myth and legend to you is a real path I have walked in the past," the River God said calmly. "If I told you that the human civilization you know now is merely a product of a new generation, and that before that, there were even more ancient human civilizations that entered the secret realm to cultivate many years earlier than you, would you believe me?"

"So, you are human, a human from the previous generation. Buildings like the Imperial Palace in the secret realm are actually products of the previous generation, right?" Chen Guan wasn't surprised, just a little puzzled.

Why did such a human civilization get submerged in the torrent of history?

“Indeed, both I and this imperial palace are relics from the previous generation. As for the other secret realms and ruins, whether they were left behind by my generation is unknown. Because in our generation, after entering the secret realms, we also discovered some incredible ruins. We cannot determine whether there were earlier human civilizations before our generation,” said the River God.

"I see." Chen Guan finally understood why the styles of those ruins were so different and the differences were so huge. It turned out that there were multiple civilizations long before human civilization.

"I wonder which generation the Chunyang Temple was left behind, and what kind of existence the stone figures on the cliff are." Many thoughts flashed through Chen Guan's mind, but he said aloud, "Since you are an elder of the previous generation, and there is no deep hatred between us, why should I take the blame?"

"You just happened to be there; consider yourself unlucky," the River God said, preparing to attack.

“Wait a minute. If I’m not mistaken, the successor you’re waiting for cannot break the seal on the Milky Way. The one who truly breaks the seal is me, or rather, my sword,” Chen Guan said.

"It's pointless to talk about this now," the River God frowned.

“No, it makes sense.” Chen Guan said firmly, “If my reasoning is correct, the people you call the inheritance you are passing on to are not us, but your bloodline descendants.”

"What you call inheritance is nothing more than bloodline inheritance. As long as it is your bloodline, it doesn't matter what his or her abilities are or whether he can break the seal."

Upon hearing this, the River God laughed and said, "You are indeed a clever person, but it's a pity that clever people often don't live long."

“Then that’s it. The person you’re looking for is a descendant of the Great Xia King, which means that there are still bloodlines left in the world from the previous generation, and they have been multiplying and thriving.” Chen Guan continued.

"Of course, otherwise where do you think you came from? Humanity has always been passing down its heritage, but after a civilization is destroyed, it takes too much time for the remaining humans to develop and grow again, and the previous civilization will be forgotten in the long river of history."

"Your generation will be the same. If you cannot survive the great calamity, the current civilization will also be destroyed. The survivors will multiply in the wasteland and gradually forget your generation... and become a new civilization..." As Hebo said this, there was a hint of melancholy in his eyes.

"What kind of power destroyed your generation?" Chen Guan asked hurriedly.

Firstly, he was genuinely curious, and secondly, he was stalling for time.

"The Secret Realm of the Sky... Countless incredibly powerful spirits... They are existences beyond your imagination..." River God seemed to be talking about a dream that was far beyond reach.

Upon hearing this, Chen Guan's expression turned extremely strange. He looked at the River God and asked, "Are you saying that the Sky Realm destroyed your generation?"

"You know about the Sky Realm?" He Bo frowned slightly. "I've never seen it, but I've heard of it. A thousand years ago, the Sky Realm descended..." Chen Guan said.

He Bo was taken aback and interrupted, "No... the Sky Secret Realm you're talking about... is absolutely not the same as what I'm talking about... If the Sky Secret Realm had descended a thousand years ago... your civilization should have been completely destroyed long ago... It's only been a thousand years... humans should still be like savages, fighting wild beasts for survival on the land of China... how could they possibly have entered the secret realm..."

"Is the Sky Realm you mentioned something that comes from the void...?" Chen Guan recounted the information he had learned from books about the Sky Realm.

The River God's expression shifted repeatedly upon hearing this, muttering to himself, "It is indeed the Sky Secret Realm... it should be the Sky Secret Realm... but why have you developed to this extent in just a thousand years... this is far too fast..."

"It's not fast anymore. It never really stopped, it just went through some setbacks." Chen Guan tried to stall for time, slowly recounting how the Emperor Ancestor disappeared into the Sky Secret Realm and then caused unrest among humanity.

The River God seemed completely dumbfounded, his face filled with disbelief.

"The Sky Realm appeared... and one person led a million iron cavalry into it... and then the Sky Realm disappeared... How is that possible... You're talking nonsense..." River God simply did not believe what Chen Guan was saying.

He always felt that their era had reached the pinnacle of human cultivation, and that their civilization had been easily destroyed by the terrifying spirits that emerged from the secret realm of the sky.

How could these little creatures of the future possibly prevent the celestial spirits from descending, thus ensuring that human civilization was not destroyed and could continue normally?
"Everyone knows this. You can find out by asking around. There's no way to fool anyone." Chen Guan was somewhat relieved that the Emperor Ancestor and his million iron cavalry had bought humanity time to continue, preventing the civilization from being directly destroyed and having to start all over again, as had happened before.

The River God, however, could not accept that later generations had developed a civilization far more advanced than theirs.

"A million great caves, and you only took two thousand years? That's impossible." The River God still didn't believe it, thinking that Chen Guan was just fooling him.

"That's all in the past. There aren't many Great Cave Heavens among humans now. Within the Ten Great Cave Heavens, each only has one human city, and it's said that there are only a few thousand humans in each city who are part of the Great Cave Heaven." Chen Guan also knew that the millions of Great Cave Heavens were things from the time of the Emperor Ancestor.

"Hmph, nonsense. Your current level is about the same, but what about a million Great Cave Heaven Knights and the Emperor Ancestor breaking into the Sky Secret Realm? You're far from being able to fool me." The River God's face turned cold, believing that Chen Guan had been trying to deceive him. He stopped talking nonsense and directly pushed out with a palm.

Chen Guan wanted to say something more, but it was too late.

The River God's palm force surged towards him like the Milky Way flowing backwards. Even when Chen Guan used his axe to cleave the palm, the vast and boundless force was like a drop of water falling into the sea. The crack he created was instantly submerged in the surging palm force.

The palm strike, like a primordial flood, was an incredibly terrifying blow amplified by a secret technique.

boom!
Just as the surging palm force, like a celestial river, was about to engulf Chen Guan, a giant mountain thousands of meters high suddenly descended, splitting the celestial river in two. The surging energy crashed against the giant mountain, but could not shake it in the slightest.
