Chapter 784: Chapter 358 Closed Loop_2

In this world of Great Schism, no one could defy Shen Yuan’s will.

The nobility and ministers of the Great Yin Imperial Dynasty spread the news of the Human Emperor’s Absolute Heaven and Earth Passage and under the guise of negotiation, invited various grotto heavens sacred ground and mountain river deities of the Primal Chaos Realm, determining the next thousand years of Spirit Energy depletion.

Various factions were not without individuals who doubted the deadline and its details, but under Shen Yuan’s interference, acting according to the will of heaven and humans, everyone subconsciously ignored the potential issues.

The upper echelons of the Primal Chaos Realm maintained a tacit understanding and propagated to the outside world that the Spirit Energy Tidal Surge of a thousand years was merely to prevent the complete exhaustion of spirit energy in the Primal Chaos Realm.

This naturally stirred dissatisfaction among many cultivators, especially those from lower ranking cultivation forces who started rebellions, but all were suppressed by the grotto heavens blessed land and the Great Yin Imperial Dynasty with forceful measures.

That year, Shen Yuan sat dryly atop the Mount Tai King’s throne, using the Nine Provinces Cauldron to suppress the Spirit Veins of the Primal Chaos Realm.

The wave of Spirit Energy depletion did not happen overnight, but was an extremely lengthy process.

As the current spirit energy visibly declined, the top forces of the Primal Chaos Realm exited the stage of history, leaving behind a chaotic Primal Chaos Realm.

Without the old order’s suppression, the Great Yin Imperial Dynasty, as the main body of the Primal Chaos Realm, quickly suffered backlash. Even though it was suppressed by the human fate from all sides, it still tottered without the support of rune technology.

Demon Cultivators re-emerged and blood-washed city after city, and some justice-minded cultivators, unwilling to barely survive, directly confronted the demon cultivators to save countless lives.

In this process, Shen Yuan saw many powerful cultivators breaking into demon tribes’ sacred land, trying to rely on the Demon Transformation Pool for reincarnation, forcing Mythical Beast Bai Ze, one of the current Demon Saints, into forced reincarnation.

Shen Yuan saw Kuang Tianjie, the master of the Blood River Yuan Slaughter Path, being hunted by Immortals of the Grotto Heavens Sacred Land, forced to hide his broken body in a secret realm, trying to entrust his life to a Taoist artifact ring.

Shen Yuan also saw, in the chaotic River Ji waters, Yunmeng Dragon Monarch battling many powerful experts of the River Ji Dragon Palace, moving towards the end of his life in the Yunmeng Swampland.

However, all this was just the beginning.

As the concentration of spirit energy diminished to almost nothing, the millennia-old spell-based civilization that had sustained the Human Clan began to collapse.

Without spirit energy as support, these talisman tools that had created a glorious history were thoroughly swept into the trash heap, turning into useless junk.

The teleportation gates that once spanned thousands of miles instantly collapsed, and the trade linking the Great Xia Territory was thereby severed.

The mechanical beasts that could carry hundreds of people lost their power; cities once separated by thousands of miles could still maintain a high level of close contact by traveling on these mechanical beasts in just a day.

But as spirit energy dried up, people could only travel by foot across the sprawling tens of thousands of miles of Great Xia Territory, with journeys accompanied by potential attacks from monster tribes, demon cultivators, and wild beasts.

People could only develop clusters centered around cities.

But as civilization declined, a disaster far more terrifying than demon cultivators and monster tribes erupted, namely the great famine!

The Great Yin Imperial Dynasty at its peak had Ministry of Agriculture overseeing incense offering deities, with Imperial Edicts mandating deities to maintain the seasonal weather.

Using spells to cultivate spirit seeds, graft plants, and create fertilizers–techniques that spread throughout Great Yin, developed to the peak of production capacity such that Great Yin never needed to worry about food.

The city storerooms piled full of inexhaustible food, and constant temperature arrays maintained the temperature inside the storehouses to ensure that this food could be eaten over a long period.

However, beneath the depletion of spirit energy, the weak incense offering deities collapsed, leaving no one able to maintain the weather necessary for crops.

The constant temperature arrays in the storehouses failed, and massive amounts of food rot and became inedible.

And with the decline of spell-dependent agricultural technologies, the Great Yin populace no longer could cultivate the ultra-high yield food, and even some seeds began degrading due to the absence of magical cultivation.

Lacking the guarantee of food, city after city began to suffer great famines, with disasters affecting the lands of the Human Clan causing countless deaths and injuries.

Order thus completely collapsed, and the name of the Great Yin Imperial Dynasty existed in name only after the long period of great famine.

But Shen Yuan just observed all this, even though a flick of his finger could save everything, he still did not intervene.

After the extended chaos of order’s collapse, the population of the Human Clan decreased to less than one-fifth of what it had been at the peak of the Great Yin Imperial Dynasty.

Because this was after the decline of the spell civilization, the surrounding lands of those cities had reached the limit of sustaining life.

However, the brief stability of the population did not last long, and the next disaster followed closely, with the universal laws beginning to collapse.

If the depletion of Spirit Energy was an external weakening for cultivators, then the collapse of the universal laws negated the cultivation system from its very roots.

During the era of Spirit Energy depletion, cultivators were still able to seal themselves in a region of the Primal Chaos Realm with massive amounts of spirit stones, barely clinging to life.

But with the collapse of the universal laws, the cultivation systems of cultivators remaining in the present world were directly shaken.

Cultivators began to lose their strong powers, which they had once taken pride in, and even with an abundance of spirit stones, they could only watch helplessly as they turned into mortals and reached the end of their lives.

And in the midst of the collapse of universal laws, the once vast territories of the Primal Chaos Realm began to shrink, with the mountains and rivers of the non-human confluence returning to the origin of the Primal Chaos Realm, and cities once thousands of miles apart were shortened to just a hundred miles.

As distances shrank, the Human Clan made contact with each other once again, and the fire of civilization was rekindled.

But this did not mean good things, as the Human Clan never lacked ambitious individuals, and wars began to erupt between the great cities, quickly sweeping through the entire Great Yin Imperial Dynasty.

Many heroes and heroes were deadlocked for decades without a victor, and after signing alliances with each other, the deadlocked forces decisively chose to attack the core Imperial Capital of Great Yin, witnessing the end of this last dynasty.

When someone broke into the newly rebuilt Imperial City, they only found a treasure sword that had lost its luster, an official seal, and a decaying body sitting beneath the throne.

That was the last prince of the Great Yin Imperial Family, Ji Zhaoyang, who had not succeeded in taking the throne of the Mortal Emperor.

Thus, centered around the Imperial Capital, the great era of chaos among hundreds of nations began.

Meanwhile, outside of this world in the grotto heavens sacred ground, many nobles of the Great Yin imperial dynasty had a thorough grasp of everything in the outside world.

They monitored the entire Primal Chaos Realm through their blood relatives remaining in the world.

To them, the end of the Great Yin Imperial Dynasty was of no concern, for they believed that after waiting a thousand years, they could return to the present world and establish a new Great Yin Imperial Dynasty.

This thought persisted for more than a thousand years, but these powerful noble families did not achieve the results they desired.

Since the noble families only hastily developed the grotto heavens sacred ground, which was not as stable as the grotto heavens blessed lands of sects with long lineages, many grotto heavens sacred grounds were on the verge of collapsing.

And in pursuit of maximum benefit, the noble families bought large amounts of rare ores and Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, leaving only a thousand years worth of spirit stones for Spirit Energy supply.

After a long time, the grotto heavens sacred grounds began to collapse massively due to the loss of spirit stone supply.

Some powerful experts of the noble families risked their lives to break out from the grotto heavens sacred ground, but upon arriving beyond the limits of the present world, they were only met with severe heavenly punishments.

As one powerful expert after another fell, their death scenes turned into folktales, and their final accusations against the Supreme Taoist were heard in bits and pieces by mortals, recorded in various mythical and ghostly tales.

As the dust of the old age was swept away, after the prolonged chaos among hundreds of nations, the Great Yu Dynasty was established, bringing the rule of the human Imperial Dynasty back to the Primal Chaos Realm.

However, less than a thousand years after the establishment of the Great Yu Dynasty, the first era of Spirit Energy arrived, with cultivators etched in myth and legend returning to this world, leading to the collapse of the Great Yu Dynasty amid the turmoil between the Immortal Path and the Mortal Path.

Several hundred years later, as the era of Spirit Energy ended and the Immortals concealed themselves, the Great Qin Dynasty was established during the chaotic Spirit Energy Depletion era following the turmoil of the Immortal Path.

The rule of the Great Qin Dynasty also lasted three thousand years, until the second era of Spirit Energy arrived once again, declaring its end.

As the Spirit Energy Tidal Surge underwent another cycle, the Primal Chaos Realm welcomed the Great Xia Dynasty, and thus the passage of tens of thousands of years changed.

As Shen Yuan, who was sitting on the Mount Tai King’s throne, witnessed the faint revival of Spirit Energy again, a spiritual light from beyond the heavens descended into the Primal Chaos Realm.

Shen Yuan’s lips curled into a smile, as the space-time of the Primal Chaos Realm froze at that moment, and he rose from the throne and stepped into the river of history.

The next moment, the Mount Tai Palace, which seemed frozen from thousands of years ago, turned into flying ash and dissipated into the spatial dimensions.

Meanwhile, inside Wenn City, a young man who had just attempted suicide slowly awakened from his coma.
