According to Zhuge Mingzhu's description, the strength of the sects that returned to the mainland is actually not as strong as those of the demon clan, and is far inferior.

However, in the first few hundred years of the war between humans and monsters, those sects did not think so, and felt that those powerful monsters were nothing more than this.

In a few hundred years, they killed many powerful demon clans and restored their rule over the original Cangming Continent.

But when they wanted to drive out all the monsters on the other continent, they encountered very strong resistance.

Some Yao people who did not seem so powerful before suddenly became very powerful, but they could only exert a small part of their own strength.

Later they learned that although the two continents had merged together through collision, the laws on the two continents were different.

When those demon clans arrive at Cangming Continent, their strength will drop significantly. When they return to the continent where they came from, they will regain their original strength.

The same goes for human monks. When they go to the other country's continent, their cultivation level will drop a lot, becoming only half or even one-third of the original.

In Cangming Continent, their strength has not decreased, but the strength of the demon clan has decreased a lot, so they can gain the upper hand.

However, even under this favorable situation, it took them hundreds of years to drive out those monsters.

The gap in strength between each other can be imagined.

When they arrived on the opponent's territory, they were no match for them and were beaten to a pulp.

If it stays like this, there won't be a big problem. We can go back to our respective homes without disturbing each other.

What makes them panic is that as the two continents merge for longer and longer, the repulsive power of the law will become smaller and smaller.

According to their calculations, in a few thousand years, the power of the laws of the two continents will be integrated, and there will be no rejection of the creatures on either side.

By that time, human monks will have no way to compete with the powerful demon clan.

After that shocking catastrophe, human beings suffered extremely heavy losses. In the struggle with the demon clan, a large number of high-level monks died. There are only less than ten monks left in the realm of transformation into gods.

There are only a few hundred monks.

Thousands of years are not enough time for them to recover.

They can only find ways to prevent such integration.

After they determined the intersection of the laws of the two continents, they spent a lot of manpower and material resources. Using eighteen cities as base points along the route, they set up a grand magic circle to reverse the yin and yang, so that the laws of the two continents would not converge.

, but become increasingly repulsive.

That array is called the Formation of Life and Death, and that line is called the Underworld Line.

Ordinary people who want to cross that line will end up dead.

If a monk wants to cross that line, his cultivation will fall to a great level.

——It’s not a drop from the middle stage of Golden Elixir to the middle stage of Foundation Establishment, but a complete big state like the fall from the middle stage of Golden Elixir to the middle stage of Foundation Establishment.

If a monk who has not reached the level of foundation building crosses that line, he will end up like ordinary people, namely death.

However, in the same way, when those demon clans cross that line from that continent to this continent, they will also fall to a great level.

That is not just a matter of reducing the strength to one-half or one-third, but to only one-tenth or one-tenth of the original strength.

With such a dividing line as a barrier, the demon clan would not dare to invade this continent.

——There are those who do not believe in evil. After hundreds of years of repeated verification, the surviving demon clan will realize the seriousness of the matter and will not continue to be stupid.

With that dividing line, Cangming Continent finally got a time for quiet development.

Over the next tens of thousands of years, the population multiplied and multiplied more and more, and this continent that had experienced shocking catastrophes slowly regained its vitality.

Various species that have become extinct in this world began to grow again because they saved their seeds when they left.

And those sects got this opportunity for peaceful development and gradually recovered their vitality.

Currently, the cultivation sects in Cangming Continent are divided into five sects and three islands.

The five sects are Tahao Sect in the west, Yudu Sect in the middle, Baihua Palace in the east, Xuanming Sect in the north, and Wenxian Sect in the south.

The three islands are the Far North Island in the North Sea, Jingluo Island in the East China Sea, and Tulong Island in the South China Sea.

Although many high-level monks have been lost, their heritage is still there and their orthodoxy has not been broken. After tens of thousands of years of development, they have finally returned to their heyday.

However, after tens of thousands of years of scouring, the Life and Death Formation has slowly been damaged.

Zhuge Mingzhu said to Ning Shaoyang:

"Now the power of that line has begun to decline, and the ability of the law to intervene is getting worse and worse. It is expected that in another thousand years, the laws of the two continents will be completely integrated, and there will no longer be rejection."

Ning Shaoyang was surprised: "Doesn't that mean that in a thousand years, those powerful demon clans will come from another continent?"

"Yes." Zhuge Mingzhu nodded, "There are only a thousand years left."

Thousands of years later, the laws of Cangming Continent are no longer exclusive, and the more powerful demon clan will definitely invade this continent.

At that time, demons will come to the earth and chaos will begin.

Ning Shaoyang suddenly felt a strong sense of crisis.

Mortals don't have such a long lifespan to wait until a thousand years, but monks are different.

Monks in the Nascent Soul realm can live for more than a thousand years and will encounter the coming of that troubled world.

It can even be said to be inevitable.

Ning Shaoyang suddenly remembered the time he saw Zhuge Mingzhu outside Feixian City.

At that time, he was chased by a huge hawk demon.

Now we can know that they were chased from the Monster Clan's continent.

According to Zhuge Mingzhu, after crossing that dividing line, he will fall into a great realm, and the true realm of the hawk demon is much higher than he imagined.

Now that he has reached the Golden Core realm, he still feels helpless when he thinks of that hawk demon.

——That’s when it fell to a big level.

He understood a little bit why Zhuge Mingzhu suggested that he sacrifice the Demon Refining Sword as his natal magic weapon.

That sword is the most suitable for restraining monsters in such troubled times.

At the same time, he also understood why Zhuge Mingzhu told him that he could not use this sword until he reached the realm of returning to the virtual world.

——If the demon clan knew that this sword, which was specially designed to restrain them, was in his hand, he would definitely find a way to take it away.

Zhuge Mingzhu really can't protect him.

Recalling that Zhuge Mingzhu stole this sword from the continent where the demon tribe lives, he couldn't help but ask:

"Master, when you went to that continent to get the sword, didn't it mean that your cultivation level dropped to the golden elixir realm? Aren't you afraid of death?"

Zhuge Mingzhu shook his head: "I have not fallen into the realm because I can adapt to the laws of that continent."

Ning Shaoyang was surprised.

This is different from what she said at first.

"I have practiced the "Ten Thousand Demons Book", which comes from that continent. There are some spells at the end that can transform into monsters and conform to the laws of that continent, so I will not fall into the realm."

Zhuge Mingzhu explained.

Ning Shaoyang nodded and understood one more thing - why Zhuge Mingzhu did not advise him to practice the various spells of Tahao Clan, but asked him to practice the magic of the demon clan. It turned out that it still had that effect.

When I think about the demon mirror that Mu He gave me, I felt it was of no use at the time, but now I feel completely different.

That is very useful.

He already vaguely understood what kind of things the sect was planning to ask him to do.

If I guess correctly, it will indeed be very dangerous.

Couldn't help but ask:

"Then can we build a large array like that again? In this way, we can get tens of thousands of years of development opportunities."

Zhuge Mingzhu shook his head: "Building such a large formation back then used up too many resources. It can be said that all the major sects have exhausted their own inventories."

Such a large formation acts on the dividing line between two continents. It is very large in scale and consumes countless materials.

"It is necessary to rebuild such a large formation now. That is not to say that it is impossible, but it will consume a lot of resources again. It can maintain peace for tens of thousands of years, but what about tens of thousands of years later? There will be no need to rebuild again.

It’s possible.”

"After tens of thousands of years of development, various sects have reached their peak, and their consumption of cultivation materials has also reached a balance point. If they develop further and have more high-level monks, it will destroy that

The balance point has caused excessive consumption of materials, making the world's cultivation materials less and less, and making the world of cultivation slowly become weaker."

"It can be said that due to the limitation of cultivation resources, the development of human monks has now reached the limit that this world can bear. It will not be possible to exceed this limit in the future."

"And that continent is larger and richer in resources than ours. The longer it drags on, the better it will be for them."

"The demon clan has a long lifespan, but it also has a shortcoming, that is, they grow very slowly. Tens of thousands of years can restore the sect of human monks to their heyday, but it cannot restore them to their peak.

A powerful period.”

"In the hundreds of years of war between humans and monsters tens of thousands of years ago, they also suffered great losses due to the restrictions on their cultivation when they crossed the border. Until now, they have not recovered to the most powerful state in the past.

situation."

"But if we delay it for tens of thousands of years, it will be different. Human beings have reached the limit of what cultivation resources can support, and they will not develop stronger, but they will be able to produce more top-notch experts.
