Chapter 381: Many Things in the Past and Present Are Just Jokes

The bird spirit spoke in a half-script and half-verbal manner, sometimes with some small stories and time jumps. Lu Yao was afraid of missing out on his memory, so he copied and pasted what it said into a txt document.

After some effort, he sorted out the bird spirit's story in chronological order.

…

The Stork Pattern Clan is said to be the descendant of Kunpeng.

Kunpeng roams between the myriad worlds and is a divine beast that transcends all living things. Kun and Peng actually refer to two stages of the same species.

Kun is a big fish that lives in the ocean and is as big as a whale. When in the sea, Kun will think that he is a fish. If he cannot get rid of his primitive ignorance, he will gradually become a real fish, only knowing how to play and hunt in the water.

But if Kun can enter the sea, look up at the sky, and listen to the voices from the distant stars, it will understand that it comes from the sky.

After evolution, the big fish-like Kun will break out of the scales and become a Peng that soars above the nine heavens.

At that time, Kunpeng will rise against the wind, and it will leave the narrow ocean where it lived before and fly to the vast and infinite virtual and real universe.

As descendants of Kunpeng, the Stork Pattern Clan has wings, can fly, and can enter the water. Their vision and hearing are far superior to other creatures, and they can also talk to ghosts. They are a tribe with extremely excellent initial abilities.

The Stork Pattern Clan has the ability to fly, and they are inherently superior to many wild beasts. Those stronger than them cannot fly to the sky, but the birds of prey in the sky dare not provoke the smart and vengeful Stork Pattern Clan.

The tribe developed smoothly and rapidly. The Stork Pattern Clan learned to draw pictures of storks and fish on the mountain walls. This is also what they imagined their ancestors to look like. They have never seen a real Peng.

But they met a Kun.

The big fish sensed that the Stork Pattern Clan was close to itself in blood, and was very kind to them. For a long time, the Stork Pattern Clan accompanied Kun.

However, when transforming into Peng, Kun failed. It only shed half of its scales and died of exhaustion.

The stork pattern tribe was very sad. They didn't want to see Kun being eaten by other fish and birds, so they worked together to move the body of the big fish to the land and buried Kun on a mountain near the sea.

To thank them, Kun's ghost did not leave, but turned into the original stork funeral spirit, incarnated as the guardian spirit of the stork pattern tribe.

This is also the initial prototype of [Stork Mayfly Tank].

The stork pattern civilization was opened on the cliffs of high mountains. Because of their extraordinary talents, they can build camps and settlements in extremely dangerous places. The wild beasts on the ground can hardly reach these cliffs and highlands.

The stork pattern tribe, who control the sky, marched towards the ground. They drove away wild beasts, conquered savages, assimilated and integrated extraordinary creatures, and established a brilliant and peculiar civilization and culture.

The tops of the mountains were transformed into city clusters by the stork pattern tribe. They fly freely from north to south. There is no place in the world that they cannot go. They are the king of the world.

After confirming their leadership in the world, the stork pattern tribe began to devote themselves to creation and invention in order to enjoy a more convenient and comfortable life.

They lit bonfires, collected trees, firewood and oil, made and stored charcoal, and used fire for heating and cooking.

They had superb leather-making technology. The wind was strong and the temperature was low in the sky, and leather was light and close to the body, making it the most suitable clothing material for the Stork Pattern Tribe to travel.

They controlled hawks and seabirds, and the birds became their eyes and flying hounds to patrol the world for them, and sowed various seeds on the earth, allowing nature to mature grains and fruits.

They loved painting, carving and architecture, and murals of the Stork Pattern Tribe were left on the tall mountains. They piled up and carved huge stone statues of storks and fish, hoping that one day, if Kunpeng passed by, he would see their greetings on the mountain.

…

Among all the skills mastered by the Stork Pattern Tribe, they have a special liking for pottery.

According to the bird spirit, it is mainly due to the characteristics of pottery itself. Pottery is a tool made of clay or pottery. It is soft and primitive before firing, and it will become extraordinary after firing. It is like the growth from Kun to Peng.

After a long time, the Stork Pattern Tribe gradually developed the custom of pottery jar burial.

They buried the bodies of their fellow tribesmen in jars, covered them with lids after antiseptic treatment, and fixed the burial jars on the cliffs. The living hoped that in this way, the dead could break free from the shackles of the world and fly to the sky like their ancestors.

The burial site was the mountain where Kun was buried before.

The stork burial spirits protected the ghosts of the Stork Pattern Tribe, comforted them, listened to them, and let them sleep peacefully in the Sea of ​​​​Destruction, and no longer disturbed the world of the living.

After sixteen eras, the Stork Pattern Tribe established a huge mountain civilization.

They brought the savages into the plains with rivers and taught them to plant and hunt with seeds; they also helped the islanders on the sea to drive away predatory beasts, and taught the techniques of pottery making, logging and tanning leather...

These tribes became vassals of the Stork Pattern Tribe. They paid tribute to food, leather and various minerals, and the Stork Pattern Tribe protected their safety.

The Stork Pattern Tribe had a clear purpose, and they found a way to make civilization long-term and stable.

"Let those who come from the ground return to the ground, let those who live on the sea settle down on the sea, and let those who live in the sky continue to rule the sky and all things."

During this process, the Stork Pattern Tribe also encountered many challenges, such as internal disagreements, vassal rebellions, abnormal climate, and challenges from extraordinary people... They solved these problems without any danger and continued to lead all life as the Lord of the World.

The [Stork Mayfly Tank] was also gradually formed under the nurturing of generations of tribesmen and the entire civilization system, becoming the symbol and bond of the Stork Pattern civilization.

In the 18th era, the world where the Stork Pattern Clan lived was invaded by foreign gods.

It was originally an ownerless world with a vast territory and rich species. It had never been interfered by gods before.

But such a place is a piece of fat meat in the eyes of the gods, and they will never let it go.

The title god named [Looker] sent out the army of the Kingdom of God led by apostles to try to conquer this world.

Facing the invasion, the Stork Pattern Clan gave the strongest counterattack.

They organized warriors and repelled the enemy several times. In two consecutive large-scale battles, they defeated the main force of the enemy and killed 5 apostles under [Looker].

Seeing this, Lu Yao had a preliminary understanding of the combat power of the Stork Pattern Clan.

Facing the army sent by the title god, they chose to fight hard and killed 5 apostles... This means that the combat power is far beyond that of ordinary gods, at least Bo Shen and the Ben Cavalry Army are absolutely incomparable.

In this world war, the Stork Pattern tribe also paid a heavy price. A large number of tribesmen died on the battlefield. Their bodies were buried in the mountain where Kun was sleeping after the pottery jar burial.

[The Overlooker] did not give up, but sent a larger reinforcement.

This time the army was led by two demigods, with seven high-level apostles as commanders, and more elite soldiers than before. It was obvious that they wanted to take down this ownerless world in one go.

The Stork Pattern tribe's combat power was greatly consumed, and it was becoming increasingly difficult to cope with the escalating intensity of the war.

The enemy's soldiers seemed endless. With the power of one world, it was really difficult to fight against the huge civilization chain controlled by the title god.

The Stork Pattern tribe collected more and more corpses, and there were fewer and fewer available warriors. They prayed angrily and sadly, praying that [Stork Mayfly Jar] could convey their voices to Kunpeng in the sky. I hope that the ancestors will show up and drive away the powerful and dangerous enemy.

What responded to them was not the ancestors, but the resonance of the immortal wonder pottery jar burial war drum.

That day, the whole world was filled with responses from the far side.

Waves of completely different drum sounds echoed in the valley, on the sea, in the woods, on the cliffs... They were sounds from different places, originating from different civilizations of pottery jar burials.

The resonances of civilizations from countless worlds were deafening through the pottery jar burials, and the thundering war drums also brought a wave of magnificent power across time and space.

These forces converged into rivers and seas, and merged into the [Stork Mayfly Jar], turning the bird spirit into a white bird that covered the sky and the sun. At that moment, it seemed to have transformed into an ancient Kunpeng.

The great power of the resonance of many civilizations converged into a fist that waved to the gods.

The stork was burning like the sun, and it flapped its wings and flew away from this world, never to return. From then on, the person of the [Looker] never appeared in this world again.

Many years later, the new stork burial spirit revived from the [Stork Mayfly Jar] again, but it had no previous memories.

The ghost of Kun, who once protected the Stork Pattern Clan, attacked with self-annihilation, in exchange for the dignity and continuation of the Stork Pattern Civilization.

Many years have passed.

The Stork Pattern Civilization has mastered the immortal wonder of [Stork Mayfly Tank]. They use resonance to find other civilizations and use tank burial to breed and strengthen the burial spirits. The stork and fish burial spirits have become an inseparable part of the civilization.

They began to seek to break through the boundaries of the world and enter the vast outer space.

Just as the Stork Pattern Civilization was ambitious and ready to go further, their world was captured by Tai Sui.

Unlike the previous response to the title gods, there was no war and confrontation this time. There was only a moment of darkness, and the whole world was destroyed.

The pride and honor of ruling the sky in the past, the ambition to resist the gods, and even the endless imagination of the future, all returned to zero on that ordinary day.

Only the broken [Stork Mayfly Tank] remained, and the bird spirit was still telling the old story.

"…This is the history of the demise of the stork pattern family."

"To know what happened next, please wait for the next chapter."

The stork nodded to the spectators around it and then flapped its wings and disappeared without a trace.
