Chapter 49 - Chapter 49 Rise of Humanity

"And unfortunately for humanity, these ancient beings and their races saw humanity as the greatest threat to achieving that destiny and authority."

"Because even though humans are born weak and powerless, compared to those ancient races, humans have terrifying reproductive abilities and strong adaptability. Because of that, they can survive in any place and environment. At the same time, even though those ancient races tried everything they could by committing genocide and massacring humanity, ultimately, no matter what they did, even though they killed most of those humans, a few would always survive and escape."

"And before those ancient races could wipe out those remaining humans, within a few years, those remaining humans would always reproduce enough to fill that gap and even increase their overall population compared to before."

"Because of this, those ancient beings were outraged, shocked, and confused. But even though they tried everything, they couldn't do anything. Because of this, those ancient beings and their races knew that, in order to gain the destiny of the protagonist of the world, they had to fight a war against humanity."

"At the same time, they knew that with the cultivation system being spread by humanity, it was only a matter of time before many powerhouses and powerful cultivators were born into humanity, and some might even reach the same level as them, just like that bastard from humanity. So those ancient beings increased their slaughter and genocide of humanity by a large margin, to the point where almost every corner of the Nine Emperor World, from the lands to the sky and the oceans, was affected."

"Everywhere was filled with the blood of humans, from women, the elderly, and children. Those vile ancient beings and their races didn't spare anyone at all."

"As for those ancient beings, they knew that war was inevitable, so they tried and used everything they could to kill as many humans as they could so that when the war arrived, humanity would be weaker and have fewer powerhouses, giving those ancient beings a huge advantage. They would use that advantage to win the war, completely exterminating humanity from the world and gaining that destiny, becoming the protagonists of Heaven and Earth."

"But unfortunately, they forgot to take one person into consideration. The man who walked out of humanity and spread the Teachings of Dao, taught everyone in humanity cultivation, and was the first among humanity and all of the Nine Emperor World to reach the same level as those ancient beings by following the path of cultivation. Because he was the first person in the entire world to become a cultivator and spread the Teachings of Dao."

"Everyone in humanity and all of those ancient beings and their races called him by the name and title of Dao Ancestor, the Ancestor of Dao. As the war between all of those races was approaching, and the conflicts, massacres, and wars in the Nine Emperor World reached their peak, humanity was fighting desperately to avoid being completely exterminated from the world."

"And with the help of Dao Ancestor, who, while still being in seclusion, was helping humanity from the shadows, humanity somehow barely survived by clinging to life against the terrifying assaults of the ancient beings and their races. At that time, humanity was also consumed by hatred, resentment, and revenge against those ancient beings."

"At the same time, they were also eyeing the destiny of the protagonist of the world. And all the powerhouses and cultivators of humanity knew that if they wanted to change the pitiful fate of their race and rule the world, then they had to fight for that destiny. They were also aware that with their population and reproductive ability, it was only a matter of time before humanity was filled with powerhouses that could better protect their own race, especially with Dao Ancestor present."

"They only knew that they needed to hold out long enough before they could declare war against all of those ancient races. And after discussing this with Dao Ancestor, who was regarded as the supreme leader and guardian of humanity,"

"The highest and most respected ancestor. All of those powerhouses and cultivators became even more certain of that. And they all had a single thought in their minds. In these dark times, the longer they could hold on before the war and increase their population greatly, the higher their chances of winning against those ancient races and becoming the protagonists of Heaven and Earth."

"So humanity did exactly what it had planned. Under the guidance of Dao Ancestor, they held out as long as they could while at the same time reproducing like mad, as every family had a minimum of five to ten children. This caused them to constantly replenish the population that had been slaughtered by those ancient races and even increase their population further. And after doing all of this, they did nothing but keep repeating the same cycle."

"Because of this, the overall population of humanity increased by a large margin, and at the same time, because of the large population, more and more powerhouses were constantly born into humanity, which better helped them defend against those ancient races. And even though many powerhouses and cultivators of humanity were killed in those conflicts and assaults by those ancient races, compared to the rate at which humanity was producing powerhouses and increasing its population, it was simply nothing."

"This caused those ancient beings and ancient races to become even more alarmed and worried, so they increased the rate of their assaults instead. But all of this was useless, as humanity just kept repeating the same strategy against those ancient races and kept growing stronger overall. During this time, those ancient races and ancient beings truly and deeply understood how terrifying humanity was. The more difficult things became for them and the more their survival was threatened, the more dangerous and terrifying humans became."

"At the same time, every single powerhouse of humanity was much stronger compared to those of the ancient races. Even though humanity was weak and had a much larger population, because of that larger population, they had far more powerhouses overall, and each of those powerhouses individually was much more powerful and stronger than the powerhouses of those ancient races."
