The primordial era began with the Upper Cave Man.

Chapter 218 Cause and Effect, Martial God Realm

Luo Zu never stopped studying the calamity energy, but he could never grasp its essence and could not practice it to achieve enlightenment. He could only obtain obscure "minor paths" from it, such as calamity, hardship, decline, and death.

Furthermore, this led to the deduction of laws, but the calamity energy could only be sensed, not investigated in its essence. This difficulty left even Luo Zu helpless.

It was only later, when he obtained the Seven Arrows of Nailhead, that he began to study the cause and effect of curses more thoroughly, and then used them to investigate the calamity.

Unfortunately, the Seven Arrows of Nailhead was not complete, not even a half-finished product. In fact, it was just called that, but the way it operated was very different from the Seven Arrows of Nailhead in Luo Zu's memory. They were completely different.

The discrepancies made Luo Zu shake his head after just one look.

Lu Ya could curse Zhao Gongming to death with his Seven Nail-Headed Arrows, but Lu Ya's Seven Nail-Headed Arrows wouldn't even be enough to kill a Xuanxian.

Moreover, the conditions for its use are extremely demanding. It requires seven cultivators working together in harmony, and these seven cultivators must practice the same techniques in order to operate it.

In short, it would be extremely difficult to use them for a contest of wits.

However, it has one advantage: it does not require the enemy's birth date and time, but only a wisp of the enemy's aura, which can then be used to lock onto them.

It was precisely by leveraging this advantage that Luo Zu broke through the difficult problem of studying the calamity energy.

The calamity energy originates from the spiritual energy of heaven, earth, and all living beings; it is the outburst of heaven and earth's resentment at the constant exploitation of all living beings.

Moreover, the calamity energy targets the creature by first capturing its aura, and then using this aura to attach itself to the creature's soul or even its true spirit, thus bewitching its mind and causing it to suffer calamity or become calamity.

Of course, Luo Zu's discovery was only a minor aspect of the Calamity Qi; the real key was how the Calamity Qi could silently attach itself to the soul and true spirit of living beings.

This is a huge problem, involving too many things. At Luo Zu's current level, it is beyond his comprehension. Only when his level reaches that point will it naturally be solved.

It's hard to find, and even if Luo Zu scratches his head now, it's useless.

It would be better to use the Seven Arrows of Nailhead to study the Great Dao of Cause and Effect.

In fact, Luo Zu still has quite a few Taoist methods that can lead to the Great Dao of Cause and Effect, and can also use other Great Daos to study Cause and Effect. However, the scope of Cause and Effect is really wide, and many Great Daos are connected to it. Even between Great Daos, He can interfere. Therefore, it is difficult to study this Dao, and it is even beyond the realm of time and space.

Cause and effect are too mysterious. Every cause has an effect, and every effect has a cause. Once something begins, the result is inevitable.

Such an idea is easy to grasp, but it becomes difficult to delve deeper into it. It is extremely easy to fall into a paradox and get stuck in certain inflexible thoughts.

Luo Zu naturally wouldn't waste his time like that, so he studied other Great Daos, trying to see if he could apply the principles to other areas.

It's a pity, but also difficult.

With a gentle exhale, Luo Zu released the souls of the seven "Calabash Brothers" and then continued to focus on the "Martial God Realm" that he had already cast into the mortal world.

This "Martial God Realm" was created by Luo Zu using the name of the ancient Martial God. He then used his vast spiritual energy to deduce various methods before finally bringing it into the human world.

What kind of effect will the "Martial God Realm" have after it is deployed?

The effect was immediately noticeable.

Because the descent of the "Martial God Realm" was particularly grand, especially since the "Martial God Realm" was "obstructed" by the human world, it made all living beings in the human world aware of this thing.

The story of the ancient martial god has been revived in the world.

People are well aware that such a thing existed in the world countless years ago.

Of course, while people may understand this, they are more concerned about the existence of the "Martial God Realm".

However, the "Martial God Realm" disappeared like a shooting star during its collision with the human world, and has never appeared since.

It only took this opportunity to move once the fourth celestial being ascended to heaven appeared in the world.

This movement left a deep mark on the Northern Continent of the human world. A "fist" landed on the ancient glacier of the Northern Continent, and a solidified and unyielding will directly caused an iceberg to rise from the glacier.

This is the Four Seasons Fist Technique, which ultimately refines into the intent of the Four Seasons Fist. The four seasons cycle endlessly, eventually condensing the martial arts of the four seasons, enough to change matter and transform spiritual energy from energy into all kinds of matter.

This kind of boxing technique is close to the Dao, and can even be said to be a first-class immortal technique.

When the Four Seasons Fist Technique is implemented, not only will icebergs rise, but a fierce wind will sweep across the entire Northern Continent.

This punch was the power of the Ancient Martial God. All living beings, whether they witnessed it firsthand or heard about it, were well aware of the Ancient Martial God's might.

Therefore, the "Martial God Realm" is even more coveted by people.

Especially for those beings who had no hope of cultivating immortality, they found an excellent way to achieve enlightenment.

"Through martial arts to attain the Dao, one becomes a true god of martial arts."

Subsequently, the entire world was thrown into turmoil, and the calamity surged and churned, affecting all living beings and plunging them into misfortune.

Luo Zu also stopped sending the calamity energy to the Nine Netherworlds and prevented the Heavenly Demon Realm from absorbing the calamity energy of the human world, allowing the human world to "digest" it on its own.

However, the Heavenly Demon Realm will not give up so easily, especially those demons born from the tribulations of inner demons, who are unwilling to give up such a large piece of fat meat.

Then, in the third year after the "Martial God Realm" fell to the human world, a fierce battle, ostensibly over the ancient Martial God, broke out between the human race and the barbarian race.

Because the two races have the most members who practice martial arts, especially the barbarians, who make up for their lack of wisdom with martial arts, martial arts has always been the barbarians' first choice.

However, the human race has always prided itself on being the oldest race among mankind, and has even dug up that the earliest cultivation practice of the human race began with martial arts.

Therefore, the human race and the barbarian race began to fight over the ownership of the ancient martial god.

The conflict between the two races was not a matter of spitting at each other; it was a real battle of swords and spears.

From warriors of both races to top-level cultivators, none of them wanted this item to fall into the other's hands.

Then the demon race joined the war. The reason they joined was that some of their fellow demons happened to break into the "Martial God Realm" and obtain a "Ten Thousand Beasts Fist Technique".

Therefore, the demon race began to suspect that the Ancient Martial God was a demon.

With such intentions in mind, how could the human and barbarian races let the demon race go, especially since the demon race had entered this place ahead of time?

As the demon race joined the chaos, the sea race followed suit, the elves seized the opportunity to launch a counterattack, and the celestial demons also invaded.

In short, because of the so-called "calamity energy," this great calamity came inexplicably.

The entire world was immersed in a restless atmosphere, from which it was impossible to escape.

Luo Zu also saw the side of the Calamity Qi. It could really affect the emotions of living beings without anyone noticing. What was originally a matter that could be explained in a few words would always make people think the worst when their minds were affected by the Calamity Qi. Thus, in this era, a matter that could be explained in a few words could trigger a bloody battle.
