Chapter 1753 The Nature of Evolution

Zhang Yi said to Yang Xinxin: "I don't have much education, please explain it to me in detail."

Yang Xinxin pointed to the five stone slabs lined up on the ground and said, "The Nakal Slabs are ancient artifacts that are said to record the deeds of ancient civilizations."

Those five slabs of stone looked somewhat familiar, but probably all of these slabs of stone looked the same.

The yellow stone is densely engraved with cuneiform characters. Of course, these heavenly characters are not included in any writing system recorded in the world today.

"It looks a bit like... the one we saw before."

Zhang Yi said.

Yang Xinxin nodded: "Yes, it is the one we got from the scholar of Nash Country."

She rested her chin on one hand and stared closely at the stone slab in front of her.

"And judging from the writing system, they are also very similar."

Zhang Yi couldn't help but ask curiously: "You mean, these stone tablets also record the history of ancient civilization?"

He frowned, feeling very confused.

"But I always feel that this legend is not very reliable."

Yang Xinxin smiled slightly, "Brother, why do you have such an idea?"

Zhang Yi spread out his right hand. "According to the information we have learned so far, ancient civilization was not extremely backward, but rather had a fairly advanced civilization."

“If they wanted to preserve the history, why not use higher quality materials?”

"Moreover," he leaned over and looked at the long, angular cuneiform characters, "it's clear what kind of tools were used to carve them out. Which advanced civilization would use such characters?"

Yang Xinxin smiled faintly and explained to Zhang Yi.

“That’s because this is the most suitable material to be preserved.”

"Any artificially synthesized material, even the top-grade alloy, cannot withstand the erosion of time. Even if metal is not completely corroded into ash, it will inevitably rust and decay if it is buried underground for ten thousand years."

"You can't use it to save text."

"On the contrary, although the slate looks simple, it can avoid the risk of oxidation."

"As for these words——"

Her soft little hands swept across the stone slab, as if caressing the vicissitudes of the past ten thousand years.

"Brother, come and give it a try."

As she spoke, she took Zhang Yi's hand and carefully placed it on the stone slab.

Zhang Yi felt the contours of the surface.

"Feel...what? Could it be that there is some ancient and powerful will in here that can communicate with me across the air?"

Zhang Yi blinked.

"That's not the case, brother."

Yang Xinxin shook her head.

"Don't you realize that these words are three-dimensional?"

After listening to this, Zhang Yi looked at the stone slabs carefully again. He was surprised to find that, just as Yang Xinxin said, these were actually three-dimensional texts!

"The characters currently used by humans are all two-dimensional and can be recognized on a flat surface. However, cuneiform cannot be displayed through two-dimensional display tools such as paper or screens."

Yang Xinxin took a deep breath and said seriously: "A civilization that can use three-dimensional text to record history, do you still think it is backward?"

Zhang Yi was deeply shocked.

“So there is such a thing.”

Yang Xinxin gave Zhang Yi some scientific knowledge.

"In fact, various stone tablets have been discovered all over the world since two hundred years ago. All of them have experienced an extremely long history and are suspected to record the lost civilization of ancient times."

"For example, the Nakkar Slabs of Bharata and the Niven Slabs of Central America. They are collectively called the Lost Slabs. Similar replicas of ancient civilization records include the Dead Sea Scrolls and the Madrid Manuscript, etc."

Zhang Yi nodded.

"Humans have always been searching upwards, trying to find the truth of history and the origin of mankind. Xinxin, what have you discovered from these stone tablets?"

Zhang Yi asked the question he was most curious about.

Yang Xinxin sat up straight, pointed at them and said, "These questions are written in the same language as the stone tablet given by Xue Zong. With the previous research, my deciphering work has become much smoother."

Zhang Yi's eyes turned into astonishment.

"It actually has the same origin as the stone tablet of Nash Country?"

Yang Xinxin said: "This is not surprising. The Southwest Region borders Bharata. Long ago, it is not surprising that the two lands once had the same civilization."

Zhang Yi asked: "So, what does it say?"

Yang Xinxin looked at Zhang Yi deeply, unable to hide her inner excitement, and said softly:

"The truth about aliens and superpowers!"

There were five stone tablets with densely packed cuneiform characters written on them. Although Yang Xinxin did not completely decipher them, she obtained most of the information.

Zhang Yi swallowed subconsciously. This was important information that every force in the world wanted to obtain.

It is really funny that it is placed in the thousand-year-old temple of Bharata, but because of the reverence for religion in that theocratic country, it has not been studied.

Yang Xinxin said: "According to the records on the stone tablet, the essence of supernatural powers, well, they call it chakra. Although some people with a narrower knowledge base believe that this term originated from a certain ninja comic in Japan, it actually comes from Bharata's yoga and represents the energy centers distributed in various parts of the human body."

"Chakra is the life energy of the human body. Excessive life energy will overflow and take on various extraordinary forms."

Zhang Yi stroked his chin and said, "This is easy to understand."

Yang Xinxin continued, "According to the records on the stone tablet, the energy in the human body will continue to accumulate upwards in the form of a pyramid. This is also the appearance of the social structure of humans as a species."

"Countless providers sacrifice themselves, offering sacrifices layer by layer to the higher level, and finally one person becomes the king."

She knocked the ground with a paper tube in her hand and said seriously: "So, the existence of special energy is also through a large number of lower-level people who continuously offer sacrifices to it. Finally, the energy is gathered on the existence at the top of the pyramid."

"Eventually, the one and only king will become a god-like being. He will transcend his original level of life, and at that time, he will be a god."

After listening to Yang Xinxin's analysis, Zhang Yi just nodded at first and didn't think there was anything wrong.

But after listening to it, he thought for less than three seconds under Yang Xinxin's meaningful eyes, and suddenly raised his head with a serious look in his eyes.

"You mean, according to the records on the stone tablet, in order to achieve a leap in life level, it will lead to constant hunting within the same race."

"Then..." Zhang Yi's voice was trembling. "The winner may take away everything from the loser, and thus evolve. Billions of creatures, like raising a Gu, will constantly compete to find the winner."

"So the essence of this kind of life evolution is hunting!"
