Chapter 2872 - 2872: A New Civilization

It was unclear how much time had passed, but the radiance emanating from the elder finally ceased.

The people and demon beasts within the Treasure Division Cliff all wore expressions of clarity.

Those listening from afar clearly gained much as well. However, what they obtained was certainly less than those within the Treasure Division Cliff; this highlighted the difference between true disciples and auditors.

After the elder paused, he did not idle. He distributed the treasures on the Treasure Division Cliff to the people present.

Once everything was distributed, the Treasure Division Cliff returned to its original form of twenty-four pearls, which were also given out by the elder.

Afterward, the elder's body gradually faded away, transforming into boundless spiritual energy that dispersed into the air.

This time, Su Yang genuinely felt that this spiritual energy was actually Heavenly Dao Spiritual Energy!

Su Yang was extremely shocked; even though he had speculated earlier, discovering it in reality was still hard for him to accept.

Where did this Heavenly Dao Spiritual Energy come from?

Previously, Su Yang had only absorbed Earth Principle Spiritual Energy; he only possessed Earth Principle Spiritual Energy.

The Heavenly Dao Stone Tablet was with the First God and not nearby; how did the elder absorb Heavenly Dao Spiritual Energy?

Or perhaps, did the elder have another method to absorb Heavenly Dao Spiritual Energy without the Heavenly Dao Stone Tablet?

Puzzled, the people and demon beasts around the Treasure Division Cliff also left, each going to different locations.

Standing in this world, Su Yang watched as those people and demon beasts went to various places, and he also watched as new life began to emerge in this world.

Those who had succeeded in cultivation, both people and demon beasts, descended into the lower world to impart their knowledge to the newly born life forms.

After that, much like Earth's history, these inheritors began to fight, contending for resources and territory.

The elder observed from above for a while. Seeing the life below gradually prosper, he turned and departed.

Su Yang quickly followed him, discovering that the elder flew far into the horizon. Ultimately, in a void, the elder sat cross-legged as his vitality slowly dissipated.

Su Yang couldn't help but feel shocked. Why did the elder become like this without doing anything? His situation was different from the giant earlier; the giant consumed a lot of power while creating the heavens and earth. But the elder merely observed from above for a while; why did he also dissipate his vitality?

Still puzzled, Su Yang attempted to infuse his own Earth Principle Spiritual Energy.

However, his Earth Principle Spiritual Energy couldn't even touch the elder. The invisible force surrounding the elder seemed able to block spiritual energy.

Ultimately, Su Yang could only watch as the elder completely lost his vitality, and his body vanished entirely, transforming into a dense cluster of spiritual energy that dispersed to every corner of the world.

This situation was nearly identical to that of the giant earlier. Both lost their vitality and their bodies became spiritual energy spreading across the world.

Su Yang stood nearby, bewilderedly watching all this, unsure of what the situation was.

The situation with the giant and the elder closely resembled Earth's legends of Pangu creating the heavens and Earth, and Hong Jun transforming into the Dao. But the question was, why couldn't he reach that elder? Moreover, why did subsequent developments differ from Earth's situation?

Reflecting for a while, Su Yang suddenly felt some changes in the environment around him.

Su Yang couldn't discern precisely what these changes were; it was just a very peculiar sense.

Still puzzled, Su Yang flew to where the beings of the lower realm resided.

Those first-born from the void were highly gifted and had received the elder's heritage, along with various innate treasures; their progress in cultivation was swift. Already, several had ascended to the Saint Realm, presiding over the heavens.

As for the later-born beings, though not as gifted, some had successfully cultivated. Among them were several semi-saints who had touched the threshold of the Saint Realm, likely to cross into the Saint Realm soon.

Su Yang couldn't help recalling Earth's situation; human cultivation mirrored this. It's as though they were following Earth's old path!

But Su Yang could foresee that the endpoint of cultivation for these beings differed from that on Earth.

After all, Earth only possesses Yellow Level Spiritual Energy, making it extremely difficult to reach the Saint Realm. But in this world, with Heavenly Level and Earth Level Spiritual Energy, there might even emerge a strongest among them!

After observing nearby for a while, Su Yang transformed into a mortal, mingling within this world and living amongst the beings, hoping to explore the elder's secrets.

It took Su Yang a full ten years to fully understand the situation of this world. In this world, there were no names like Pangu or Hong Jun; they called the giant who created heaven and earth the Creator, and the elder who taught them magic the Preacher.

Of course, their language differed from Earth's; roughly translated, it means this.

The magic they cultivated was entirely different from Earth's; their magic formed a separate system. But Su Yang could see that the magic practiced by these people, though somewhat different, ultimately converged on the same essence, all stemming from the elder's heritage.

In other words, the heritage here entirely originated from that elder's Dao, forming the rules of this world.

This situation parallels that of Earth's Human Clan. Excluding the different names from Pangu and Hong Jun, and the distinct magic techniques, everything else essentially aligned, even the direction of civilization development.

Su Yang didn't know how to describe this situation; this world seemed like a duplicate of Earth. Or perhaps, Su Yang bore witness to the origin of a new civilization, observing the birth and advancement of a world.

However, within this civilization, Su Yang couldn't fathom the origins of that giant elder.

In the end, with no other option, Su Yang left this world.

Naturally, he did not disrupt the beings of this world, nor did he reveal his powerful abilities.

These beings were in the early stages of development; they had their own cultivation methods and developmental paths.

Revealing his abilities and altering their understanding was not advisable.

Civilization requires exploration, and life needs independent development.

Moreover, Su Yang did not know the true nature of these beings, so he dared not disturb them haphazardly, lest unforeseen events occur. Only by truly understanding these beings' nature can one decide on the best approach!
