Under One Person: I Opened the Age of Mythology

Chapter 372 The view of time, looking at the past and present!
Gu Jiting suddenly opened his eyes, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes, like two sharp swords cutting through the silence of the secret room.

He let out a long sigh and slowly stood up. His bones made a slight crackling sound, as if he had just woken up after sleeping for a long time.

The deduction stops here, like a drop in the ocean, unable to gain any further insight.

He rubbed his eyebrows, with a hint of fatigue in his brows, but also a hint of excitement.

Gu Jiting knew clearly that the reason for this was definitely because everything in this world would undergo tremendous changes at that point in time, and the most likely scenario was that Xia Ye would return!
This also meant that what this kid was doing at the moment might have produced some progress and was reflected in the operation of heaven and earth, otherwise even this little change would not be detectable, which made him smile.

But then, Gu Jiting closed his eyes again. The breakthrough was not yet complete and he had to continue.

In "The Prototype of the World", the Chinese history he knew had been shaped, and the parts he didn't know were also supplemented in the deduction.

Compared to deducing the future, the past is already determined, and it is not impossible to perfect it. Given Gu Jiting's current situation, this is not a problem.

The reason why he did so was that he wanted to add the "perspective of time" on the basis of the "perspective of space" so that he could break free from the constraints of time and have an overview of the past and present!

Of course, even if he really broke through the "peak", it would be impossible to achieve this, but it is like a seed, once planted, it will take root and sprout sooner or later.

Therefore, when all of China's past and present were gathered together, he turned his attention to outside of China. Not to mention things outside of China, he at least wanted to include the past and present of the entire earth!
Gu Jiting immersed his mind in the prototype of "body, heaven and earth", and the outline of the earth gradually became clear in his mind.

The land of China has come to life, like a miniature model, lying quietly in his palm.

Now, he wants to expand this model to include the entire world.

He first set his sights on Europe...

In medieval Europe, chivalry was prevalent and castles were everywhere.

Gu Jiting's mind moved, and in the "world", the outline of the European continent emerged, and majestic castles rose from the ground.

Knights in armor galloped on their horses, brandishing their swords, and the sound of swords and horses resounded through the sky.

He even constructed a scene of a knightly tournament, in which the cheers of the noble ladies on the sidelines, the shouts of the knights, and the neighing of the horses can all be clearly heard.

The spires of the Gothic church reach into the sky, the stained glass reflects colorful light, and the choir's melodious singing echoes in every corner of the church.

Gu Jiting tapped his finger and the scene switched to ancient Egypt.

On the banks of the Nile, the pyramids stand tall, like eternal giants guarding this mysterious land.

In the pharaoh's tomb, the murals are lifelike, telling the story of the pharaoh's life and achievements.

The priests dressed in gorgeous costumes and held mysterious ceremonies to pray for the protection of the gods.

Gu Jiting even "saw" the process of mummification and the scene of the discovery of Tutankhamun's tomb. Everything was so real, as if he had experienced it personally.

Then, he turned his attention to the American continent.

In the dense jungle, the inhabitants of the primitive tribes live a simple and primitive life. They hunt, gather and live in harmony with nature.

The remains of Mayan civilization lie quietly deep in the jungle, and the pyramids and temples tell the glory of this ancient civilization.

Gu Jiting "saw" the scene of the Mayans performing a sacrificial ceremony. A blazing fire was burning on the altar and the priests were dancing a mysterious dance, praying for good weather and a good harvest.

Fine beads of sweat oozed out of Gu Jiting's forehead. Constructing the history of the entire world was a huge challenge for him. He needed to mobilize all his knowledge and imagination, plus constant deduction, to restore these scenes to such a realistic state.

"Hush-huh-"

He took a deep breath and continued to perfect the scene in his "body in the world".

Next, Gu Jiting "saw" the debates of philosophers in ancient Greece, the fights of gladiators in ancient Rome, and the prosperity of art during the Renaissance.

He even "saw" the rise of the Industrial Revolution, with steam locomotives roaring and factory chimneys emitting thick smoke, and the world began to enter a new era.

The scenes of the two world wars are also shown one by one, with continuous artillery fire, smoke and countless lives lost. This was the darkest moment in human history.

Gu Jiting's fingers trembled slightly. He "saw" the scene of the atomic bomb explosion. The mushroom cloud rose up, covering the sky and bringing a devastating disaster.

He closed his eyes and continued.

Gu Jiting continues to improve the scenery of heaven and earth, incorporating various elements of modern society into it.

High-rise buildings stand side by side, traffic is hustling, neon lights are flashing, this is the symbol of modern civilization, and the Internet has emerged.

"call……"

After a moment, Gu Jiting let out a long breath, slowly opened his eyes, and smiled.

The modern society we are shaping today is only a small part of the earth's history, like a piece of a puzzle.

What he has to do is to piece together the entire puzzle and restore everything to its perfect state.

So the next moment, he focused his mind on the land of China, which was the starting point of his creation and the core of the entire "body and heaven".

He took the development of Chinese civilization as the main line and began to radiate outward, outlining the contours of world history.

He "saw" the primitive tribes in the Yellow River basin, who used drilling wood to make fire and knotted ropes to record events, thus marking the origin of Chinese civilization.

The tribes gradually merged to form the earliest country. The three dynasties of Xia, Shang and Zhou succeeded each other, leaving behind countless legendary stories.

During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, various princes vied for supremacy, hundreds of schools of thought contended with each other, and the sparks of thought collided to create brilliant light.

Qin Shihuang unified the six kingdoms, built the Great Wall, standardized the writing system and the wheel gauge, and laid the foundation for Chinese civilization.

During the prosperous Han and Tang dynasties, nations from all over the world came to pay tribute, the Silk Road connected the East and the West, and cultural exchanges flourished.

Gu Jiting tapped his fingers lightly, as if plucking the strings of history. He then extended his mind to the West and began to shape the history of Europe.

The city-state civilization of ancient Greece, the Olympic flame, and the ideological clashes among philosophers all gradually took shape under his ideas.

The rise of the Roman Empire, the hustle and bustle of the Colosseum, and the heroic spirit of Caesar constitute the early chapter of European history.

In medieval Europe, chivalry and religious beliefs were intertwined, and castles stood on vast plains, full of classical meaning.

He "saw" the scenes of the Crusades, where knights wearing armor, holding spears, and charging into battle while shouting slogans.

The Pope's scepter symbolizes supreme power and rules the spiritual world of Europe. The Renaissance swept in, and the works of art masters such as Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo shone brightly between heaven and earth.

Gu Jiting waved his sleeves lightly, and the scene changed again.

On the banks of the Nile, the Sphinx quietly watches the passers-by. Its huge body casts a long shadow in the sun, and a breath of vicissitudes of life comes to the face.

Gu Jiting even "saw" how the craftsmen cut the huge stones piece by piece and how they piled them into pyramids.

Inside the pharaoh's tomb, the murals depict various gods and myths, which are so lifelike that they seem as if they are about to walk out of the walls.

Priests chanted ancient spells and performed mysterious rituals, and the air was filled with the smell of incense.

On the American continent, residents of primitive tribes sang and danced around the campfire to celebrate the harvest.

They made clothes from animal skins and leaves, hunted with stone tools and wooden sticks, and lived a simple and primitive life.

In the cities of Mayan civilization, pyramids and temples tower into the sky, and exquisite carvings and murals demonstrate their high level of artistic skill.

Gu Jiting "saw" that the Mayans used astronomical knowledge to predict solar and lunar eclipses, and also "saw" their complex hieroglyphics and calendar systems.

On the grasslands of Africa, lions, cheetahs, zebras and other wild animals run freely, and the natural law of the survival of the fittest is most truly reflected here.

Gu Jiting "saw" the scene of a lion hunting. Its agile posture, sharp claws and fangs, and the terrified eyes of its prey all showed the cruel side of nature.

After the civilizations around the world had been portrayed in sufficient depth, Gu Jiting began to focus on the exchanges and collisions between different civilizations.

The sounds of camel bells, the hawking cries of caravans, and the bargaining of merchants from various countries on the Silk Road interweave together to create a busy scene.

Gu Jiting "saw" Chinese silk and porcelain being shipped to the West, and also "saw" Western spices and jewelry flowing into China.

Zheng He's fleet sailed to the West in a mighty manner. Gu Jiting "saw" the busy figures of the crew and heard the sound of waves hitting the side of the ship.

They brought Chinese goods and culture to strange countries, spreading peace and friendship.

The collision and fusion of different civilizations brought new culture and technology, but also conflicts and wars.

Gu Jiting observed all of this carefully, trying to find some pattern from it. His mind was constantly flowing, controlling and observing the course of history.

He seemed to be in the long river of history, feeling the pulse of every era and experiencing the rise and fall of every civilization.

And as time goes by, everything becomes more and more complete and closer to reality.

Soon, when the "civilization" was full enough, Gu Jiting's gaze turned to the more "ancient" existence. He also wanted to see everything in this world before "history" was recorded.

He knew very well that this was extremely difficult, as there were no more concrete "clues" to rely on, but he was also extremely excited, so he used everything he had as a clue and tried his best to deduce.

Gu Jiting immersed his mind in an even more ancient era, a period before human civilization appeared on Earth.

The land that was originally in chaos in his "world" began to undergo earth-shaking changes under the control of his mind.

A loud rumbling sound came from deep within the earth, as if something was about to break out of the ground. Hot magma gushed out from the cracks in the earth's crust, like fire dragons raging on the surface. Thick smoke billowed, covering the sky and the sun, and the air was filled with a pungent smell of sulfur.

Gu Jiting "saw" the volcano erupting, lava flowing on the surface, forming strange lava landforms, the ground cracked, everything was burning, and the whole world seemed to be in a sea of ​​fire.

Dinosaurs and other prehistoric creatures gradually took shape in his mind and appeared on this hot land. They were huge in size, some were covered with thick scales, and some had sharp claws and fangs, and they dominated the world for a time.

Gu Jiting "saw" the Tyrannosaurus Rex open its bloody mouth and let out a deafening roar. The smaller dinosaurs fled everywhere to avoid being hunted by this top predator.

From Guji Pavilion, you can "see" lush ferns and tall cycads, which constitute the vegetation landscape of prehistoric times.

He seemed to be in that era, feeling the primitive and wild atmosphere. He could even "hear" the sound of wind blowing through the leaves and the footsteps of dinosaurs.

He "saw" a huge meteorite streaking across the sky, dragging a long tail of fire, and falling rapidly towards the earth like the messenger of doomsday.

The meteorite hit the earth, causing a huge disaster. The earth trembled, mountains collapsed and the ground cracked. The volcano erupted again, magma gushed out like a fountain, and the sky was covered with thick smoke and dust, and the sun could not be seen.

The dinosaurs wailed in despair and fled in all directions, but they could not escape this catastrophe. The shock wave swept across the globe, causing huge waves and submerging large tracts of land.

The age of dinosaurs came to an end, and the Earth entered a long period of recovery.

Subsequently, the Earth underwent a long period of geological changes.

Gu Jiting "saw" the movement of the earth's crust, the rise of mountains, the changes in the oceans, and the changes in the climate.

When the Ice Age came, ice and snow covered most of the land. The once lush forests turned into icy wastelands. Many creatures could not adapt to the cold climate and gradually became extinct.

In order to survive, various creatures began a long evolution.

Gu Jiting turned his attention to the ocean, where life originated.

He "saw" the earliest life beginning to appear in the ocean, from simple single-celled organisms to complex multi-cellular organisms, and then to various types of fish, and the forms of life gradually diversified.

Fish evolved limbs, crawled onto land, and became amphibians.

Amphibians evolved into reptiles, and reptiles eventually evolved into mammals.

Gu Jiting carefully observed the evolution process of each species and felt the magic and greatness of life.

The Earth's plates are constantly shifting, and the shapes of the continents are constantly changing.

Gu Jiting "saw" the splitting of the Pangaea continent and the formation process of various continents.

He observes the evolution of the earth from a God's perspective, the changes in the world, and the movement of the stars.

And when the deduction was over, everything began to rapidly move backwards, and finally turned into dust, arriving at the moment when the Earth was not yet formed...

And the moment of formation!
At this moment, Gu Jiting's "body of heaven and earth" seemed to resonate with the outside world. A mysterious aura circulated around his body, forming a huge vortex that wrapped him up.

His eyes flashed...

A door appeared in front of him and he reached out and pushed it open!
