“What’s the realm above the sage-level knight?”
Zhang Tie asked Yun Zhongzi seriously as the answer was very important for him. Since he gained the fruit of redemption from saving humans and acquired the Class I universal consciousness, Zhang Tie had been troubled by this question. However, nobody on his side could give him an answer.
Was there a greater realm above the sage-level knight and what on earth was that? Any knight at a high level like Zhang Tie couldn’t avoid it. Additionally, it was so attractive that people would also be trapped in this question. However, only very few people across Taixia Country could able to discuss this question.
“I don’t know what on earth is the realm above sage-level knight, either!” Yun Zhongzi said as a confused look flashed across his face, adding, “Previously, I thought that the sage-level knight was the culmination of the cultivation of human knights. However, after forming the chakras of earth, water, wind and fire, mastering the strength of realm and consolidating the level of sage, I started to gradually feel that the so-called sage level might only be the ceiling of cultivators’ recognization about power system in this age. As most of the knights could hardly touch this ceiling, this ceiling becomes mysterious and high in the eyes of those knights and they call it sage. In fact, this ceiling is not the culmination knights’ power system; instead, it might only be a starting line!”
“Similar to that when we completely lit our surging points, we thought we’ve reached the apex of fighters; however, it was just a beginning for a knight. Similarly, the completion of chakras of four elements might only be a starting point of a higher realm. To form four chakras, we could gain a foundation for ascending to a higher realm. Look at the tower of time, our space-teleportation equipment, those silver secret items that were passed from far-ancient times and those legendary gold secret items that very few people have seen, even immortal items, could all these items be controlled and created by sage-level knights? Of course not! Even the lowest-level baron-level secret knowledge that we cultivate couldn’t be created by a sage-level knight. The realm of the sage-level knight is definitely not the peak of power. Actually, there might be strength far greater than a sage-level knight on the side of demons behind the holy war…”
Yun Zhongzi’s words aroused Zhang Tie’s resonance. Zhang Tie shared the same opinion with Yun Zhongzi in many aspects, “You’re right. Previously, I also thought that sage-level knight was the culmination of knight’s power; however, after mastering the ability of divine dominator and with the growing abilities, I gradually realized that I’m innocent about power. The real power is never purely destructive; instead, it’s one’s consciousness about universal rules and the ability to control them. Rules lead to realms while realms contained destruction and creation of power. What doubts me the most is that all the classics that our cultivation based on rarely mention the realm, power and cultivation methods after forming the four chakras. Therefore, it causes an illusion that sage-level knight is the culmination of power…”
“The so-called sage-level knight is special in Black Iron Age. This name was granted by this age. In far-ancient times, this realm might have other names. Even knights that we call as powerful guys in this age had other names at other times. For instance, in the ancient times of Taixia Country, powerful ones were classified into deity, real man, immortal, taoist, sage and wisdom. Knight in modern times might be called wisdom in far-ancient times.” Yun Zhongzi said as a bizarre, classic piece of crystal of secret knowledge appeared in his hand, “This piece of crystal is called “Secret Code in Peace Times”. It was discovered together with Great Wilderness Sutra in the Dongtian of Great Wilderness Sect. It records some far-ancient things and contains the descriptions about deity, real man and immortal. You could take a look at it…”
Zhang Tie then took that piece of crystal. Although he could use less spiritual energy, he would still check the contents of the crystal. After injecting some spiritual energy into it, he started to browse it…
The contents of this book shocked Zhang Tie too much. In this book, the history of Hua people was divided into six historical phases in far-ancient times, namely phases respectively ruled by deities, real men, immortals, taoists, sages and wisdom. Each phase lasted at least tens of thousands of years, even millions of years. It was said that the age ruled by deities was the peak period of Hua people. Deities came from galaxies, who could easily fly across the sea of stars. Only by waving their hands, deities could shatter stars, break the void, shape the world and create living beings. Deities dominated the sky in a supreme position. By contrast, in the period dominated by real men, all the real men had lost the abilities to fly across the sea of stars; they couldn’t fully live without earth. They even lost the greatest ability to create living beings. However, real men still had very great abilities as they could also renovate topography and create various magical rarities using bizarre metals and minerals in the earth. However, the rarities that real men created were just used to pursue the ability of deities. Therefore, real men dominated the earth. When it came to the period dominated by immortals, immortals’ abilities gradually weakened as they could only manifest their dignity by arousing wind, rain, thunder, bolt, volcanic eruption, earthquake and tsunami. The periods dominated by taoists and sages weakened much more. They even lost the ability to manipulate wind, rain and bolt. The tools and instruments created by taoists and sages were also used for pursuing and imitating predecessor’s abilities. When it came to the period of sage, sages could only fight wild beasts with bare hands and foot and manage the people. Many powerful wild beasts in the period of sage were created by deities…
One line in the Secret Code in Peaceful Times spirited Zhang Tie. The most powerful sages and wisdoms might sense a bit of the ability of immortals as they could manipulate wind and thunder…
‘F*ck, doesn’t it mean the realm of interaction between human knights and the universe? It turns out that this state indicates that I only sense a bit of the power of immortal. Attention, it’s only “a bit”…’
In the secret book, deities were the most powerful ones. The age of deities were the most powerful periods. The fall of the period of deities was caused by the war between two deities, Gong Gong and Zhu Rong who were both deities…
Instead of being water deity and fire deity as they were usually considered in later myths of Hua people; precisely, the two heads of deities should be contradictory to each other just like water and fire…
The so-called deity, real man, immortal, taoist, sage and wisdom were just names, which could be renamed as bird man, bear man, tiger man, ox man, robot man, auto man or what. Their names didn’t count at all and wouldn’t influence their existence. Take many names for knights in this age as an instance, knights were actually hatchet men and violent machines. You could name or classify them as you wanted, such as gold-medal hatchet men, silver-medal hatchet men, copper-medal hatchet men or class I violent machine, class II violent machine, whatever it was. What counted most behind these divisions were the realms and abilities that these people with different levels in different historical periods owned…
“Far-ancient times was divided into periods of deities, real men, immortals, taoists, sages and wisdoms in the book Secret Code in Peaceful Times , which reminded Zhang Tie of the periods of deities, gold, silver, bronze, heroes and black iron which were divided in western myths and legends that Zhang Tie once read in Waii Subcontinent. The descriptions and memories about powers in far-ancient times were similar in civilizations of different backgrounds. It was never simply a coincidence…
