Chapter 230 Dawn of the Gods, the Manipulator of History

Before the god's birthday, it was a thousand years in the old calendar.

The celestial kings who have reached the end of their evolution have found different ways of transcendence after thousands of years of exploration and searching, and in this year, they took the first step towards becoming gods.

In order to obtain enough resources and achieve their goal of becoming gods, the kings indiscriminately plundered all the major settlements, and a war sweeping across the wasteland was gradually spreading.

As the conflicts between various forces intensified, the wasteland entered an era of national wars. The kings killed each other, plundered each other's life source, and the forces under their command merged with each other, forming large forces with a population of tens of millions.

This war lasted for a full four hundred years, and the dark turmoil spread to every corner, causing the number of living forms in the wasteland to be reduced by half.

It was the first mass extinction in the wasteland era, and eighty percent of the different evolved races that had survived were wiped out, causing a sharp drop in species diversity.

The war lasted for four hundred years and is known in history as the War of Shenli.

After gathering half of the living beings' resources, the victorious third-order late-stage Heavenly Kings officially embarked on their own journeys to becoming gods.

During this period, they gradually transformed from evolved life forms into gods, gradually evolved into the eternal and immortal great divinity, and began to transform into gods.

In the following hundred years, the gods behind various forces entered a period of cultivation, and used the resources they plundered and collected to continuously strengthen themselves.

And the tribesmen under their command also began to multiply, expand and develop during this peaceful period.

This is especially true for the surviving humans, who, by exploring and tracing the technologies left over from the old era in underground shelters, have re-mastered various technologies and entered an era of rapid development.

The entire ethnic group gradually prospered and rebuilt civilization, as if right before our eyes.

This period is also known as the Dawn of the Gods.

Represents the dawn of hope.

But in this peaceful atmosphere, undercurrents are still surging, and a more terrifying and fierce war is quietly brewing.

In fact, this kind of prosperity and flourishing only exists among the lower and lower levels of all forces. In the eyes of the real upper and highest levels, the crisis is already obvious.

Especially the third-level kings of each party, they have the closest relationship with the leaders behind them, that is, the great beings who have embarked on the path to becoming gods.

Many of them rely on the radiant energy emitted by gods to complete their own evolution and transformation.

The blood genes in the body are inherited from the gods we believe in.

So they could clearly feel that the appetites of the dormant gods were growing bigger and bigger, and they had to consume tons of high-level source matter every day, or enough energy to run a town with a population of one million.

They once plundered the stored resources, and now they are desperately developing and exploiting the collected materials, which are gradually being emptied out as the aura of the gods continues to rise.

The inventory of material reserves is about to reach the bottom.

The so-called prosperity and rapid development were only due to that four hundred years of war, which killed half of the lives and vacated more than half of the space...

Refilling and utilizing these living spaces requires more manpower, which creates this superficial prosperity.

But this prosperity is not permanent, just as development and expansion are not forever. When it reaches a certain level, it will fall into a period of stagflation.

Because the existing living space has been fully developed and utilized, at this time, the upper limit of development and expansion will be reached.

At this time, the various forces under the gods, after a hundred years of unrestrained expansion and development, have reached a bottleneck period.

The living space within each sphere of influence has been filled up, and the resources that can be sacrificed and offered to the gods are also approaching saturation.

But the gods' appetite will not decrease due to the steady supply of food from their subordinates.

As the demands on gods grow stronger and stronger, the development of their power is met with resistance from other forces, and a war is naturally inevitable.

And because of the existence of the gods, the intensity and scope of this war will be far more brutal than the war between the gods and the Leopards that lasted for four hundred years.

At this point, a dark period lasting five hundred years quietly began with escalating frictions.

During this period, the gods rose up...

Open the chapter of the war of the gods.

He is also the Lord of the Holy Spring.

The battle to officially ascend to the throne of godhood!
Lin Feng, who was outside the book, felt his eyes ache when he saw this. He had been immersed in the world of the book for more than three hours and had read a total of two hundred pages.

In order to save space and layout, the words in the Holy Spring Sect are very small, only three or four millimeters in size, and a page is filled with about five thousand words.

It’s equivalent to reading for three hours and one million words.

Even reading a novel is not that fast. Even if you just glance over it, it will take several hours. What's more, Lin Feng reads every major event of each year seriously and without missing a word.

It is also necessary to write them all down and deduce the world situation at that time and the causal relationship between various major events from various events.

Many records seem independent, but they can still form some kind of unknown connection between them, even if they are separated by hundreds or thousands of years, and the same people no longer appear in the events...

But in previous events, often an action or decision can affect the future hundreds of years later.

When Lin Feng analyzed this layer, he did not feel excited because of sudden enlightenment or sudden realization.

Discovering a certain pattern or truth will indeed give people a sense of joy of achievement, and the satisfaction brought by exploring the unknown can provide the greatest spiritual pleasure.

But the prerequisite is that this law or truth can benefit oneself or the group, or better understand the world in which one lives.

And if this discovery itself is some kind of evil conspiracy, or if it brings disaster...

What that brings to the discoverer is not the satisfaction of harvesting joy, but a chilling fear in the heart.

At this moment, Lin Feng was in a state where these two feelings were constantly intertwined.

Because by analyzing the thousands of years of history of the old calendar, he saw a series of continuous clues that eventually intertwined together, giving rise to and intensifying various major events.

It was like an invisible net hanging over everyone's head in that era.

Lin Feng didn’t think much of it before. After all, human lifespan is limited, and no one can predict what will happen a hundred years from now. Therefore, the development of history is determined by the people of that time.

This is also the objective reason for the establishment of historical materialism.

Times make heroes, everything is the result of the development of the situation and the evolution of society.

But what if someone could live to be two hundred, five hundred, or even a thousand years old?

Over such a long period of time, these powerful and experienced beings are bound to control the situation around them and even the entire world.

Guide all beings towards the destination you have set.

And if this can really be achieved, then the current wasteland era and the human purgatory of the old calendar can all be traced back to the Evolutionary Alliance of that year.

A top force composed of a group of third-level kings.

It represents the supreme existence of the earth and the will of all living things.

Thinking of this, Lin Feng's pupils shrank slightly, and his thoughts and consciousness were withdrawn from the book. He turned his whole heart to guessing the thoughts in his mind.

If all of the above is true, then from the end of the old era, when the extinction crisis of the solar helium flash broke out, to the end of the old calendar when the scorching sun was engulfed in the sky for three days...

All of this is most likely the work of the Evolution Alliance, who are pushing everything behind the scenes to achieve the results they want.

The obvious result is to break through the upper limit of evolution and become an eternal and immortal existence.

That is what is happening in the thousandth year of the old calendar.

The War of the Gods, the Dawn of the Gods...

And the final war of the gods that lasted for five hundred years!
Thinking of this, Lin Feng took a deep breath, and his hair suddenly stood on end and goose bumps appeared all over his body.

Because if his inference is correct, then it is obvious that the series of events that followed, including the entire history, were most likely the plans of a certain existence or organization.

They control the fate of mankind and even the earth.

The most likely possibility is the one mentioned by Zong Shiyue, the group of people in the Evolution Alliance who were the first to reach the end of evolution in the late third stage.

Zong Shiyue was originally one of them, but due to his limited strength, he could only be a peripheral existence, equivalent to their thugs to control the situation.

It’s a pity that Zong Shiyue also reached that step later and gradually transformed into a god above the third level.

But by then the gods had already completed their transformation, and naturally would not tolerate later comers taking away their authority and living space.

So he planned to destroy Zong Shiyue's path to becoming a god.

When the gods allowed the Wasteland Wolf Clan to attack cities and slaughter settlements in the wasteland, they were probably deliberately indulging them so that the Wolf King could grow to the upper limit of the third level and shoulder the responsibility of polluting the God's Road.

Lin Feng suddenly felt a little sorry for Zong Shiyue. He had worked so hard and fought so hard to become the king of the Old Earth era, dominating one side. Then he lay dormant for thousands of years, just to break through the upper limit of evolution...

In the end, he was just one step away from success, but was framed by the gods. All his efforts were in vain.

After a second of silence for Zong Shiyue, Lin Feng quickly gathered his thoughts and turned his attention back to the Holy Spring Scripture in his hand and the Lord of the Holy Spring.

If there is human motivation behind everything, then the Lord of the Holy Spring is either one of them, or he is an anomaly in the plan.

It's a pity that the current Holy Spring Sutra is already the seventh edition after the revision. The introduction to the Lord of the Holy Spring in the first chapter, especially the chapter on origin, is extremely concise and intentionally omits this extremely important past.

For the first time, Lin Feng turned the Holy Spring Sutra to the very first page, looking for the trace of the Lord of the Holy Spring.

It was confirmed again that the above only introduced the birth of the Lord and his awakening from the underground shelter in Zhuma City.

After the underground shelter could no longer circulate water due to problems with the water supply, the survivors came to the surface and, in order to avoid the scorching sun, lived in the dilapidated sewers of the ruins of Zhuma City.

The Lord of the Holy Spring at that time was recorded as being just a teenager.

Lin Feng didn't believe this statement.

In connection with the major events that followed, this kind of image is easier to gain the trust of the wasteland residents, because the survivors who walked out of the shelter believe that the new generation is more adaptable to the wasteland apocalypse.

Be able to lead them to survival.

In fact, the Lord of the Holy Spring also did it. At the beginning, his supernatural power could only simply control the flowing liquid and sense the existence of water sources nearby.

The former is not a very powerful ability. At least when it is first awakened in the first stage, it can at most control the blood flow in the body or reduce sweating.

However, the latter's passive ability made the Lord of the Holy Spring a true savior and chosen one in everyone's eyes...

In that wild and turbulent era, everyone was like a baby learning to walk, carefully exploring the desert surface and avoiding the scorching sun.

Every day, countless lives die from overheating and dehydration, and all the fluid in their bodies becomes surplus for other survivors.

In order to survive, drinking urine has become a habit. Everyone carries a portable filter, and even a breathing mask and full-body protective clothing to ensure that the water vapor and sweat evaporated from the breath and skin re-enter the body after filtering.

But water alone is not enough to sustain life. Survival requires energy from food, and humans cannot obtain nutrients directly from sunlight.

Regardless of the type of cycle, it requires the addition of water, or the decomposition and synthesis of hydrogen and oxygen elements. In this process, external energy is absorbed and fixed in the form of chemical bonds.

Therefore, the importance of water sources not only determines an individual's survival time, but also limits the upper limit of power development.

In that era, the power of the Lord of the Holy Spring was almost equivalent to the source of water.

But he won't have only this ability. Any superpower will only become stronger after experiencing multiple awakenings.

Lin Feng naturally felt the same way.

Otherwise, the Lord of the Holy Spring would never become the master of today's top large-scale forces, but would only become an ordinary water source detector and disappear in the long river of history.

When Lin Feng turned more than two hundred pages, the Lord of the Holy Spring had evolved to the thirty-ninth level of the third-level Heavenly King, and took the step of becoming a god, becoming a member of the Dawn of the Gods. His ability to control water had evolved to be omnipotent.

Even with just a thought, all the fluids in a third-level king's body, including the cell fluid in every cell, can be expelled from the body.

In the eyes of others, one can see the target of the divine consciousness, which forcibly extracts all the liquid from the body, fills the source of evolutionary cells, and then peels off into a ball of holy spring rich in source, and a dry and dehydrated body.

The visual impact brought by this strange and terrifying divine power is even stronger than space cutting.

Because of the peeling process, the target's consciousness remains clear and he can clearly feel his body boiling and uncontrollably releasing blood and cell fluid.

In the end, only a skinny, dried corpse was left.

It seems to have experienced thousands of years of weathering.

However, in the eyes of the believers of the Lord of the Holy Spring, this is actually to educate the evildoers and extradite them to the heaven of the Lord of the Holy Spring.

Although in a sense, it is so...

But Lin Feng felt a little creepy just by looking at the recorded text, let alone those who witnessed it with their own eyes.

It was precisely because the Lord of the Holy Spring's abilities improved rapidly after he became a god that the Holy Spring Cult he founded became one of the strongest forces in the Dawn of the Gods.

Lin Feng was just about to finish reading the subsequent content, understand the chronicles of the War of the Gods, and find out that the Lord of the Holy Spring was not a new generation of the wasteland...

Then a voice sounded beside my ears:
"Chief Lin, the bishop said the time has come and you should go to the church to pray."

"Also, someone just came outside and asked us to inform you that Li Mingquan, the village chief of Nongzhuang Village, wants to see you and hopes to meet with you in Shangmin District."

Lin Feng frowned slightly.

Shen Yue suddenly woke up.
