Item introduction: A holy stone from another world. Carrying it allows you to travel freely to another world.
Of the four items needed to open the Book of Time, Wang Yuan has only obtained the Stone of Destiny.
The other three have not yet been settled.
Originally, Wang Yuan was not in a hurry to open the history book... After all, opening the history book was an extremely long process.
But it's different now.
Today, Wang Yuan is already the controller of the federal government. He has more and more awakened people under his command, and his territory is getting bigger and bigger... The difficulty of management is getting higher and higher.
After all, when there are many people, there are many things to do, and with different ideas, it is natural for them to fight with each other.
Throughout the ages, there has been only one way to solve this problem!
That is cultural identity.
Either create a religion and let everyone believe in it...or let everyone learn the same culture.
In the future apocalypse!
In the decades before the history books were opened, the Church of Light was the religion that future humans would believe in.
Even until the extinction of mankind, the Holy See of Light will still be the main belief of mankind.
Of course, Wang Yuan can also build the Church of the God of Light in various places, and then send a group of people to preach... and let everyone believe in the God of Light.
However, after Wang Yuan learned that humans were tools used by the gods to enslave and collect the power of faith... he also had no good feelings towards the Church of Light.
The same thing again!
There has never been any savior, and we cannot rely on gods or emperors. To create happiness for mankind, we have to rely on our own hands.
Therefore, Wang Yuan hopes that everyone in the world can learn the same culture.
As long as the culture is the same, everyone will be compatible with each other.
In the peaceful times before the end of the world, everyone was culturally compatible.
In the apocalyptic era, everyone has experienced more than a year of life-and-death struggles, and the cultural ideas and rules and regulations of civilized society have long been thrown out of the window. Most people believe in the jungle rule of the survival of the fittest.
If we want everyone to quickly return to civilized society, history is naturally the thing that can resonate most with everyone.
The existence of history books is to help humans record civilization and history, as well as those magnificent heroic deeds.
Human beings today are experiencing and creating history.
It is naturally easier to empathize with the historical records in the history books, and if you can empathize with them, it will be easier to accept them.
In the eyes of Dabai and the others, history books of the future apocalypse are just tools for recording history. They are the source of knowledge that they have to learn since childhood, and they don’t know what other uses they have.
Even Wang Yuan didn't quite understand before why it took so much effort to open the book of history.
But when he really sat in his current position, he naturally understood.
The greatest role of the history book is to unite everyone with cultural identity! Only when everyone unites in the end times can we develop more advantageously, survive more comfortably, and resist the invasion of powerful enemies more easily.
For the entire human history process, the history book is definitely the most precious prop.
If there were no history books, the human race in the future apocalypse would have dispersed long ago... and would not have lasted even a hundred and twenty years.
…
How is Mount Tai? Its green mountains are endless.
As the first of the Five Great Mountains, Mount Tai is more than just a mountain. It represents imperial power and once controlled life and death. It enjoys a very high status in the entire East Asian cultural circle.
But at this time, Mount Tai no longer has its former glory after the end of the world.
The Laojun Hall at the foot of Mount Tai was once the palace of Bixia Yuanjun of Mount Tai. It was very popular, but now it is unusually deserted.
There were spider webs and broken walls everywhere.
"Oh, how did this place become like this? I came here a few years ago." Li Xingyue sighed when she saw the scene in front of her.
"Yes! I remember there was an iron bull over there, but it's gone now." Dugu Ling also pointed to the right.
"There should be a tree here." Li Shizhu also said, touching his chin.
As a famous scenic spot, it seems that everyone has been here. Revisiting the place always brings back many things... For example, some people have hung love locks here, and broke up a few days after returning.
…
"It's only been a year, has this place become so deserted?"
Chun Ge, who was behind Wang Yuan, walked into the hall muttering to himself, and looked at the statue of the Three Pure Ones in front of him and muttered to himself.
"Is this the legendary founder of Taoism?" The skeleton soldiers nearby asked curiously, "I've always heard of him... but this is the first time I've seen him."
In the future, at the end of the world, people will believe in the God of Light. All the temples and palaces of other religions have been transformed into Temples of Light. People only came to know about Taoist gods after seeing Chun Ge descend to the sky.
"That's not the case... I remember there used to be a lot of magical instruments here... I wanted to steal them... but it seems someone else has gotten there first. It's a pity that it's been abandoned now." Chun Ge looked around the statue and muttered with regret.
I don’t know whether it’s a pity that the temple is abandoned, or it’s a pity that those magical instruments were not taken away by him.
"Is Taoism effective?" Ma Saner asked eagerly.
"Of course! As long as you are sincere, the ancestors will bless you." Chun Ge nodded very seriously.
"Then please bless me to find a girlfriend, Grandmaster." Ma Saner followed and bowed.
"Brother Niu, your skeleton soldier is really spiritual... he can even worship gods." Others were very surprised.
Although everyone knows that Wang Yuan’s skeleton soldiers are extraordinary, it is still difficult to understand why undead creatures worship gods.
“Clatter…”
However, just as Ma San'er finished speaking, the statue of Laojun suddenly cracked...
With a "boom", the upper body fell to the ground.
Everyone: “…”
"Hahaha!"
Chun Ge almost got a stitch in his side from laughing so hard.
"Fuck it..." Ma Saner was about to start cursing.
"Let's go! Let's find the entrance!"
When Wang Yuan saw that Ma San was about to disrespect the gods, he quickly called out to him, grabbed him, then turned around and dragged him out of the hall by the scruff of the neck.
"Do you know where the entrance is?" Death frowned.
"I don't know, but it should be in Haoli Mountain."
The so-called soul returns to Haoli. According to legend... all living things need to go to the world of death from Haoli Mountain after death.
Although the ancients did not know the concept of other-dimensional space, they can also show that the area near Haoli Mountain is the weakest place in space, and that there will be space cracks. The passage to the other world should be there.
[Hint: You have discovered a new secret realm, "Land of Reincarnation"]
But just as Wang Yuan finished speaking, a message suddenly flashed before everyone's eyes.
"????"
"The place of reincarnation?!"
Everyone stopped.
Turning around, I saw half of the statue of Laojun emitting a faint light.
