The Growth of a God

Chapter 855 The Qin Empire
The Great Qin Empire, or rather the Great Qin Empire established by Qi Refiners, has a long history.

After referring to the time difference between the [Ascension Zone] and the [Sinking Zone], the history of that emperor can even be traced back to more than 100,000 years ago.

However, this is the history of that emperor, not the history of the Qin Empire.

According to the database of Mechanical Taoist Xuanjizi, the Great Qin Empire, which has complete documentary evidence, was established approximately 30,000 years ago.

Under the leadership of His Majesty the Emperor, the Qin Empire overthrew the gods who had ruled the world for tens of millions of years.

Then, His Majesty the Emperor unified the four seas and eight wildernesses and the nine provinces of fairyland and established an absolutely unified country.

In this country, gods are high-ranking officials who need to be registered, and the relationship between living beings and gods is no longer that of livestock and masters.

From livestock to slaves, from slaves to citizens...

The Qin Empire spent nearly ten thousand years to forcibly eliminate the class and power gap between living beings and gods.

Universal wisdom revolution, spiritual practice revolution, industrial revolution, intelligent machinery revolution, rank revolution...

Under the Emperor's undisguised favoritism and the gods' helplessness, the creatures living in this world launched a revolution that transformed mortals.

In the beginning, it was just to enlighten the people, then to spread the methods of cultivation, and then to promote the progress of the entire social civilization.

His Majesty the Emperor valued every life under his command equally and prepared corresponding ways out for them.

Those who are qualified and talented can choose to practice cultivation, gather the power of heaven and earth into one, and become a Qi cultivator who can rival the gods.

Those who have no qualifications or talents develop technology and gain the power to compete with the gods through various refining and industrial means.

In the great Qin Empire, every life is useful and is a screw that makes the empire progress rapidly.

Until more than ten thousand years ago, His Majesty the Emperor suddenly fell seriously ill.

The gods, who had been suppressed for so long, could no longer tolerate the deprivation of their rights and power, and seized the opportunity to rebel against the Qin Empire.

In that protracted war, although the creatures of this world suffered heavy casualties, they also demonstrated a power that was no less than that of gods.

Even without the protection of His Majesty the Emperor, the war machines built by Qi cultivators and mortals can still defeat the gods.

Not only that, in order to avoid returning to the era when they were herded like livestock by the gods, the mortal army has squeezed out almost terrifying war potential through years of war.

The originally stagnant technology tree developed at an astonishing speed, and talented Qi cultivators and practitioners emerged in endlessly...

As for the opposing side, due to the prohibition of obscene sacrifices and the severance of faith, their numbers and combat effectiveness could not be fully replenished.

Not only that, but those newly born gods, due to various concepts, stood on the side of all living beings and became enemies of the gods.

As one side gains strength while the other loses strength, there is naturally no suspense in this war.

About eight thousand years ago, the gods either compromised, joined, or simply left, and the war finally ended.

However, the end of the war did not make the world a better place.

On the one hand, the seriously ill emperor no longer appeared in public, and no one knew whether he was still alive.

On the other hand, it is because of the arrival of "gamers".

This world was chosen by the Chaos God Dijiang as the backdrop for the "Real Game".

Of course, the general public is unaware of the existence of the "real game".

According to the story of the Mechanical Taoist Xuanjizi, ordinary people simply called the era after the war the "Age of Apocalypse". The Age of Apocalypse is about 8,000 to 5,000 years ago.

The emergence of "game players" has greatly promoted the progress and iteration of overall civilization.

This progress and iteration is not only reflected in technology, the collision of systems and concepts is also the most obvious feature of that era.

It is precisely the collision of those systems and concepts that has brought about endless chaos.

What the players pursue is the progress of the overall civilization, which is the reward promised by the Chaos God Dijiang.

As for the various forms of life under the progress of civilization?
That is not something the players should care about, and they will not care about the life and death of ordinary people.

As a result, all kinds of inhumane technologies, inhumane systems, and cold and ruthless concepts appeared in this world.

Before leaving this world, every player who comes here will irresponsibly stir up chaos and leave their own traces.

Therefore, a very paradoxical situation arose.

The arrival of players has indeed brought progress and development to the civilization of this world.

However, these advances and developments were not fed back to the general public. Instead, the people living at the bottom of society were once again reduced to the status of livestock in the Age of Gods.

No, the situation of the people in the Age of Apocalypse is even worse than that in the Age of the Gods.

Because those senior officials who have mastered technological and institutional advantages don’t even care about the lives and deaths of ordinary people.

What’s even more terrifying is that ordinary people may not even notice this huge gap in concepts until the last bit of surplus value is squeezed out of them.

This kind of hidden, cold-blooded exploitation made even the gods who were watching it all feel a chill.

"The progress of civilization has brought extreme oppression..."

“Ordinary people are completely unaware of the existence of oppression due to years of brainwashing.”

"They just feel that technology is getting more and more advanced, but their lives haven't been greatly improved."

"In the age of the gods, ordinary people only need to be obedient livestock, and the gods will naturally take care of the rest for them."

"But in the Age of Apocalypse, ordinary people will not only be treated as animals, but their blood, flesh, bones, and even their souls will be burned as firewood."

When these words came out of Xuanjizi's mouth, the cold voice made people feel chilly.

“It’s not that no one is aware of this hidden exploitation, but what’s the point?”

"Technological progress has brought not only convenience to our lives, but also absolute suppression by force..."

"Ordinary people living at the bottom of society don't even have access to any force that could threaten the upper class."

"Faced with the oppression of the gods, all living beings rose up under the leadership of His Majesty the Emperor."

"But when faced with this group of people, they even killed the possibility of His Majesty the Emperor appearing."

"This is not a problem that can be solved by force. They understand human nature better than the gods did before, and they know how to solve hidden dangers quietly."
