Chapter 63: The Story of Alien Martial Arts (Part 2)
With such a declaration, the young boy has been running for three years!
At first, he could still walk with difficulty, then he staggered along, dragging his weary body, and finally, the boy could only lie on a stretcher, giving his last strength for his beliefs.
Perhaps out of pity, perhaps admiration, or perhaps out of annoyance from being disturbed, the two major opposing forces indeed reduced local conflicts and frictions because of the boy’s calls and efforts. Maybe it was just to gather strength for the next great war, maybe they were truly moved, but who knows? Undoubtedly, long-awaited peace fell upon the Tianfang Continent.
The boy’s reputation spread throughout the Tianfang Continent. Some called him a living saint, but more referred to him as a symbol of peace.
Relying on this prestige and fame, the boy wished to establish a sect to pass on his beliefs and path. However, this brought hostility from some people. Some did not wish for peace because once peace was achieved and conflicts ceased, they would have no space to rise, gain wealth, or take advantage. Some evildoers, who gained power from conflict, would lose their source of strength. If the boy had not established a sect to share his path and beliefs, they might have tolerated it. But when the boy decided to create a sect, it triggered a backlash!
A conspiracy, a plot, what began as an ordinary gathering of sects turned into a massacre, as many mysterious individuals attacked the sect created by the boy and his followers, and even several powerful figures showed their strength.
"A tall tree attracts the wind." With such a reputation, once the sect he created truly gained a foothold and even had the qualification to challenge the high and mighty opposing forces, who would watch idly? Who would allow a third force independent of the opposition to exist?
A towering fire rose, shining sword lights and sounds of battle echoed. With only one last breath left, the boy, for the first time in his life, unleashed a killing spree and showed others his true power. A sea of parasitic insects darkened the sky, covering an area of ten miles. Above, the sky was clear, but below, darkness loomed.
Even though the young man showed great power, it was too late. The camp was burned down, and most of his followers had died. Bodies lay everywhere, and blood flowed like rivers. The sect was uprooted. More importantly, he used everything he had left, which allowed the poison of No One Lives Forever to invade him completely, draining the little life he had left. The young man’s life came to a complete end in that last great disaster.
In his final moments, the young man’s gaze crossed over those enemies who were filled with fear because of his power, looking toward the world he loved so much. There was no hate in his eyes, no confusion, just a gentle calmness.
With his dreams unfulfilled, no one knew what the young man was thinking at that moment.
A sea of parasitic insects fell from the sky, completely drowning everything. The symbol of peace was erased, and only a desolate mountain remained, fully submerged in parasitic insects.
The world is so big, and with the loss of a symbol of peace, the temporary waves will eventually fade away. The forces of good and evil rose again in conflict, leading to continuous battles. The smoke of war and death filled the land, causing many poor people to lose their homes. Many who had once benefited from the young man’s kindness came to the outskirts of the desolate mountain to mourn the lost symbol of peace.
Although the sea of parasitic insects was terrifying, it seemed to hold the young man’s last wish — that the insects would not harm people or animals. As more people gathered, a small village was formed on the outskirts of the sea. However, the lost symbol of peace could not protect anyone. The spread of war eventually reached here, and the village was on the brink of being wiped out.
In that moment, a miracle happened. The sea of parasitic insects trembled, and countless fierce beasts emerged from it, mercilessly destroying all enemies. In the midst of the endless beast army, the young man, clad in white like before, stepped once again into the world.
"I will bring everlasting, complete, and eternal peace and tranquility to the world!"
Whispering softly, the young man directed his spear forward. The endless army of beasts swept away everything, annihilating the evil forces and the good forces alike without distinction. There was a ruthless slaughter; rebels died, those who begged for mercy died, those who surrendered died, and even the traitors met the same fate.
The beasts swept through wherever they went, No One Lives Forever! Everything is killed!
All the killings and fights, schemes and battles, were completely ended in the face of a more terrifying and ruthless indiscriminate massacre!
"After ten years, all the powerful emperors and saints and the Twelve Demon Overlords were all killed, along with their apprentices and relatives. Anyone who had any connection was wiped out. Entire cities were destroyed, and half of the population of Tianfang Continent died. Dozens of wise races were extinct. All those who caused chaos or dared to fight were completely eliminated. Finally, Tianfang Continent welcomed a long-awaited true peace! How wonderful! How wonderful!"
"This is a rather long story," Bai Qige said slowly, his tone calm, but there was hidden meaning in it— a sigh, a sense of admiration, impossible to understand.
After a moment of silence, everyone listened intently, absorbed in the tale, and Ye Yuantang asked pointedly, "It’s an exciting story, but it seems this story is not yet finished."
Bai Qige nodded, "Indeed, the story is not done yet. That young man was born and swept across the world. This part of history is called the No One Lives Forever catastrophe in Tianfang Continent. Afterward, the former symbol of peace rose to the top, unifying the entire Tianfang Continent. Then he thoroughly carried out his peace concept, plunging the whole Tianfang Continent into everlasting peace. His means were remarkable; during his rule, people would embrace for three minutes without saying a word, to show friendship. Forget fighting, even arguing became a thing of the past. Hooray for peace!"
The truth and meaning of this story were unknown to everyone, but they felt it was extraordinarily grand. Ye Hui, being more sentimental, was especially drawn to the young man’s deeds in the story and said in disbelief, "How is this possible?"
Bai Qige showed a strange smile, "As long as your fists are thick, hard, and terrifying enough, nothing is impossible in this world. That lone boy who turned the world upside down just happened to have terrifying fists. If a town has ten thousand people, there will surely be fifty thousand fierce beasts watching over it. Behind everyone, there are likely fierce beasts tracking them around the clock. Forget about arguing or fighting. If you even spit, the next moment, a pack of fierce beasts could come rushing in, seeing you as a villain disrupting peace and executing the punishment of annihilation!"
The overturning and reversal came faster than anyone could imagine. The former symbol of peace, with an absolutely terrifying iron fist and an unyielding tyranny, completely enforced his peace philosophy. From then on, no one called him the symbol of peace anymore; they referred to him as the Eternal Dark Demon Emperor, representing the ruler of the everlasting night!
"Some people say that the symbol of peace from the past is long dead, having perished in a massacre. What emerges from the sea of parasitic insects is just the remaining obsession and vow of that young man, turned into a monster combined with the resentment of this world! But who truly knows? There is a saying: where there is oppression, there is resistance. Though the forces of good and evil were nearly wiped out by the Eternal Dark Demon Emperor, some elite individuals survived. They plotted revenge for thirty years, which led to the second great battle against the demons!"
Fate plays tricks, and destiny is unclear. Forty years ago, the forces of good and evil, once at the top of the world and wishing to bash each other’s brains out, joined hands thirty years later to fight side by side, shouting slogans to save all living beings, rising up against the tyranny of the Demon Emperor.
This story has many details about cause and effect explained by Bai Qige, filled with thought-provoking information, but it seems somewhat unrelated to the present. Ye Yuantang’s expression clearly shows this confusion, yet he remains patient.
"Don’t worry; the old monk’s story is almost over. The great battle against the demons lasted three years before it ended. The rule of the Eternal Dark Demon Emperor was indeed unpopular. Once the rebellion banner was raised, it spread like wildfire across the land. In the end, the Eternal Dark Demon Emperor fell under the siege of heroes, but it was his death that opened the curtain for the third great disaster, far surpassing the first two catastrophes in scale and impact, famously known as the Calamity of the Bloodthirsty Dragon Camel!"
