Calamity of Tomorrow-Chapter 528 - 527 wins and losses
"What?" Zhou Bai was startled by what Christina said and hurriedly asked, "What exactly did you remember?"
"Some fragments of memories," Christina sighed. "During the great battle between humans and demons, humans and the Heavenly Court were not completely dominant. Those demon immortals and Evil Gods once attacked the Heavenly Court."
Christina seemed lost in her recollection, speaking with a distant look in her eyes, "The Heavenly Court is now located above Central City, in the Miluo Heavenly Palace."
"However, before the great battle at Kunlun Mountain 30 years ago, the Heavenly Court was above Kunlun Mountain, in the Kunlun Heavenly Palace."
"But before Kunlun Heavenly Palace, there was another palace, where the gods of the former Heavenly Court resided."
Zhou Bai nodded and said, "Uh-huh, I've heard people mention that. It's said that during the great battle between humans and demons, the Heavenly Court also stood with humans. There was a battle where the demon immortals and Evil Gods attacked the Heavenly Court and fought a bloody battle there."
"That war was so fierce that the sun and the moon were darkened, mountains crumbled, lands sank, and the heavenly palaces were completely destroyed. The former palace with entrances on all four cardinal directions, the four great heavenly gates, was destroyed in that battle."
"In the end, the Heavenly Court and humanity suffered great losses but eventually defeated the demons, securing the ultimate victory. Humans continued to be the rulers of Earth, the main characters between heaven and earth."
Zhou Bai then recalled how he once went to the northwestern wilderness to find the Plague Department's laboratory and discovered the place where Yan Zhen crafted the aberrant weapons.
There was a fake heavenly palace, with four great gates too, which looked very familiar to Zhou Bai.
Afterward, Zhou Bai had gone back to check the archives and learned that it might have been the location of the former Heavenly Court's palace.
"So what you're saying," Zhou Bai said, "is that many of the former immortals were killed by those demons, so the current immortals are all newly born?"
"No... It's not just that," said Christina, her gaze filled with bewilderment and strangeness, sighing, "Actually, that war...the Heavenly Court should have lost."
"The Heavenly Court lost?" Zhou Bai exclaimed in shock. "How could that be? The gods of the Heavenly Court were defeated by demons? Then why are the records saying that Heavenly Court won? And how do you know?"
Christina shook her head, then plopped down on the bed with a thud, covering her eyes with her thick paws, twisting and turning restlessly, "Ah~~~~~so annoying~~~ I seem to have been there too, but I've forgotten which side I was on!"
Christina suddenly sat up, "I couldn't have been helping the demons, could I?"
"But I seem to have lived in the Three Pure Dao Sect and knew the Emperor Haotian. The Heavenly Court didn't trouble me either, so I must have been helping the Heavenly Court?"
"However, I was a demon at that time... During the great battle between humans and demons, if I had helped the Heavenly Court, wouldn't I be a traitor to the demons?"
Watching Christina roll about on the bed, looking troubled, Zhou Bai asked, "Hey, what you just said, what do you mean by the demons won?"
Christina flipped over agitatedly, her tail twitching restlessly as she said, "The demons won that battle. They slaughtered many of the immortals at the time, then occupied the Heavenly Court and began ruling Earth."
Zhou Bai's eyes were filled with surprise, "There was actually such an event. And what happened afterward?" freeωebnovēl.c૦m
Christina lamented, "The rule of the demons didn't last long, only a few years before they were fighting among themselves."
Zhou Bai: "They actually ruled Earth for a time?"
Christina nodded, "Although it was only a few years, the impact was really significant. They left a vast lineage of demonic blood."
Speaking of this, she couldn't stop sighing, "These guys were too brutal, too lascivious and lawless. They created so many mixed-bloods of humans and demons, turning the whole world into chaos, filled with dark miasma. That period might have been the time I saw the most freaks in my life."
Zhou Bai: "..."
Zhou Bai: "So what happened later? Heaven must have won in the end, right? Otherwise, wouldn't it be a mess now with the mixed blood of humans and demons ruling everything? Now even the Demon Clan has been annihilated."
"Um..." Christina sighed, "I can't remember... It seems like they used some method to win, right? It's unclear."
"Damn. You forgot again." Zhou Bai said, "Then you better hurry up and cultivate the 'Original Dao Treasury 05', breakthrough to the 5th realm as soon as possible, and try to recover your memory"
"Sigh... I wish I could, but I just feel so spiritless." Christina said, "After all, am I on the side of the demons, or on the side of humans? I'm clearly a cat demon, yet now I'm working hard for the sake of humans. Isn't that weird?"
"If I am on the side of the demons, then why am I still helping humans?"
"If I'm on the side of humans, then why would a cat demon like me stand on the side of humans? They have exterminated the Demon Clan."
Seeing Christina's troubled expression, Zhou Bai had a sudden inspiration, "You mentioned that in Central City, is there anyone else who knows your secret? Who knows the secrets of Heaven?"
Christina jumped up suddenly, "Jiaojiao? Shall we go and ask Jiaojiao about my matters? After all, with the gemstone, we're not afraid of dying once."
Zhou Bai: "And about the secrets of Heaven."
In the past periods, Zhou Bai had first participated in the tournament between four schools, then interned with the army, protected West Mountain City, searched for the relics of the Plague Department, partnered with Yan Shan in business, and even went to South Mountain City to retrieve his 'Original Dao Treasury'...
One thing after another, each requiring the Time Reverse ability of the gemstone to ensure safety.
So he had never tried again to pry information from Jiaojiao's mouth, especially since Jiaojiao had killed him once because of Christina's appearance, meaning Zhou Bai had to make sure his gemstone wasn't cooling down before asking questions.
However, Zhou Bai finally had a peaceful period to cultivate, and the cooldown of the gemstone was no longer as critical, so he started thinking about whether he could go and ask Jiaojiao questions.
'Um... It's a good time as I'm learning Artifact Refining knowledge. Before asking Jiaojiao, I might as well learn some Artifact Refining knowledge to enrich my questions.'
Upon hearing Zhou Bai's plan, Christina immediately got excited, "Really? Then let's hurry! Let's go and ask Jiaojiao. She's the current head of the Three Pure Dao Sect, they must have their own historical records, right? Maybe she knows the secrets of the great war between humans and demons."
Zhou Bai: "We'll talk about it tomorrow. Today, I have to click on the next star spot first. The fifth star spot marks a qualitative change."
That night, Zhou Bai worked overtime sorting through the trash, finally accumulating enough laziness points for the fifth star spot.
"The fifth star spot, at last I can gain the method to forge treasures with Greedy Steel."
Zhou Bai smiled faintly, directly injecting 2.5 million laziness points into the star spot.
Zhou Bai's Greed Progress (5/9).
Five weeks left until the discourse in Daluo Heaven.
