What the Jade Emperor did set a very good example for the other Precariousness Level Yuan Kou. The rest of the Precariousness Level Yuan Kou did not have the courage to continue staying here. As for the subordinates of Yuan Kou who were still in the deep pit and might still be alive, these Yuan Kou did not care about them. Without saying a word, they scattered in different directions.
Each of them increased their speed to the maximum, fearing that if they were a second slower, they would be caught up and killed by that terrible human being.
In fact, these Precariousness Level Yuan Kou escaped quite thoroughly. Take the Jade Emperor and other Precariousness Level Yuan Kou of the Celestial Court as an example. After they escaped, they did not even return to their nest, the Celestial Court. Instead, they directly fled into the Dimensional Space and hid in one of the Dimensional Worlds … Only by hiding in the Dimensional World could the Jade Emperor feel a little safe. Otherwise, if he continued to stay in the main world, he would be retaliated by that abnormal human being sooner or later.
Except for some Precariousness Level Yuan Kou who cherished their nests very much and ran back to their nests, most of the Precariousness Level Yuan Kou ran into the Dimensional World. In this way, all the Precariousness Level Yuan Kou in the main world were gone. The main world entered an era with the fewest Precariousness Level Yuan Kou in the past 1,000 years.
"Have they all run away?"
Seeing the Primordial Class Yuanbandit scatter, Gu Han, who had a cold expression on his face, trembled. Then, like a meteor, he fell into the deep pit. His body was stiff and motionless, as if he was dying of a serious illness.
In fact, when fighting Sect Leader Tongtian, Guhan had almost consumed all his strength.
Even though Sect Leader Tongtian had yet to recover from his serious injuries and was ambushed by Gu Han, he was, after all, a Sage. Even under the Immortal-slaying Sword Formation, he could still fight evenly with Gu Han.
In the end, Guhan was forced to use the Chaos Sword Method, which made Sect Leader Tongtian feel that his life was in danger. Then, he did not hesitate to sacrifice the life of his last disciple, Goddess Wudang, and escape.
But Sect Leader Tongtian did not know that if he had persisted for a while and fought with Guhan with the idea of risking his life, Guhan might not have needed to sacrifice the life of Goddess Wudang. Then, Guhan would have taken the initiative to release the Immortal-killing Sword Formation and sent Sect Leader Tongtian away. Because Guhan really did not have the sword essence to fight Sect Leader Tongtian anymore.
Fortunately, Sect Leader Tongtian detonated Goddess Wudang in the end, and the Immortal-killing Sword Formation trapped the great power produced by her self-detonation. Then, he transferred the formation to those bandits. Otherwise, with the remaining power of Guhan, it was impossible for him to kill millions of bandits at once.
As for Satan's death, it was Guhan's helplessness.
After suffering a huge loss, if the remaining sword-bearers could not absorb enough sword essence from the dimensional vortex, the loss would be too great. Therefore, Guhan had to release the human sword-bearers and let them absorb the precious sword essence.
Since he had released the human sword-bearer, he had to bear the risk of the sword-bearer being killed by the primitive-level bandit again. As a result, Gu Han had to squeeze out the last bit of power in his body, as well as the sword essence that the four immortal-slaying swords had absorbed from the dimensional vortex. Then, he used all of Gu Han's power and comprehension on Satan, who stood out this time. That was the great achievement of killing a primitive-level bandit in three seconds, which was also a miraculous achievement that the later generations could only look up to for the rest of their lives.
Thanks to this extremely terrifying battle record, the rest of the primeval bandits were so scared that their guts almost jumped out of their throats. How could they still have the time to guess Gu Han's current situation? All of them wished that they had an extra pair of legs. They all ran for their lives, and humans were completely safe.
"I'm so tired!"
Looking at the dimensional vortex that was gradually shrinking in the sky, Guhan, who was lying in the deep pit, murmured and then closed his eyes.
…
"What are you guys doing?"
This time, Guhan did not sleep for too long because Guhan knew that it was not the time to have a good rest with himself.
Once Yuankou came to his senses and realized that he was already exhausted, it was very likely that it would be another disaster for the human race.
Therefore, Guhan only rested for dozens of minutes before he woke up under the cry of his heart.
However, when Guhan opened his eyes, he saw that he was surrounded by people, all of whom were kneeling on one knee beside Guhan. Seeing that Guhan had woken up, they shouted at the same time, "Your Majesty Guhan, we humans will never forget Your Majesty's kindness!"
"What are you guys doing … Get up … Otherwise, I'll be no different from Ying Zheng." Guhan struggled to get up from the ground. When he saw these humans, he smiled in relief.
…
As it turned out, Guhan's worries were unfounded. For more than ten days, no dragon-class Yuan Kou or above dared to appear near humans. All Yuan Kou hid far away from humans, as though Yuan Kou did not exist in this world.
As for Guhan, he was not interested in finding trouble with other Yuan Kou. After learning the truth, Guhan knew that the root of the calamity did not lie with Yuan Kou, but with the Tongtian Sect Master.
As long as the Tongtian Sect Master was alive, the calamity would not disappear. As long as the Tongtian Sect Master was killed, the dimensional rift and filth would all disappear. Then, it would be the best time to deal with Yuan Kou. Right now, Guhan and humans had an even greater crisis to face — the food crisis.
The food crisis was a name that was both familiar and unfamiliar to humans.
The reason why it was familiar was that in the two to three hundred years after the calamity, the food crisis had always been with humans. During these two to three hundred years, it was said that the total number of humans who had starved to death had reached two billion.
After all, humans had been poor at that time. Even if they had the ability to farm, without enough land, it was impossible to grow enough food for humans.
At that time, humans could only rely on the small amount of land near the base city to grow food like sweet potatoes and corn. Then, through careful distribution and controlling the human population, they barely maintained the food supply.
Later, when the nutrient solution synthesis machine was invented, humans could use machines, probiotics, specialized chloroplast cells, and photosynthesis to produce nutrient solutions in batches to meet the basic needs of human physiology. However, one could imagine the taste of the nutrient solution. As long as humans had a little money, they would rather spend all their money to buy natural food than eat the extremely disgusting nutrient solution!
However, it was also because of the invention of the nutrient solution that humans had completely escaped from the food crisis. They could expand their population unscrupulously until the base city could no longer accommodate them.
Therefore, it had been more than 700 years since humans had experienced a food crisis.
But now, the food crisis had come again.
After the battle of the twelve Zu Wu, the eight major base cities had been destroyed. Only Yan Jing City was slightly better off, as it had preserved all kinds of machinery needed for human life.
However, with this battle and the release of the energy from the explosion of the Goddess of Incongruence by Guhan, the entire Yan Jing City was completely destroyed. All the urban facilities, industrial machines, high-tech equipment, and even the nuclear warehouse were all destroyed. Humans had become so poor that they were left with nothing but their own bodies.
Therefore, when Guhan's body recovered and he began to gather Liunian Ling, Lu Xihua, the remaining 20 or so sword bearers of the Immortal Sword Tier, as well as some specially selected members of the council, government officials, businessmen, scientists, and other people from all walks of life to hold a human recovery conference, he realized that even if all the Yuan Kou were to die and stop harassing humans, humans would still be in danger of extinction.
Because of Guhan's timely appearance, although the last 200 million human population was saved, at the same time, 200 million mouths were saved. These mouths were mouths that needed to be fed.
To make matters worse, although Guhan saved these 200 million mouths, he did not save almost all the equipment in Yan Jing City, including industrial equipment and high-tech equipment. Without these equipment, humans could not do anything, not even the most basic reconstruction work.
Originally, humans had stored a lot of mechanical equipment in the Fleeting Time Gap, but these equipment were transported to Yan Jing City when the reconstruction of Yan Jing City was carried out. After all, if they wanted to rebuild Yan Jing City, these equipment were necessary.
However, now that these equipment were destroyed, humans had nothing left.
The only thing that could be considered lucky was that Lu Xihua had brought the remaining food with him. Even so, the food was only enough for the remaining humans to use for a month. If the food supply could not be restored after a month, the 200 million people who were lucky enough to survive would probably die.
Therefore, the current food crisis was the biggest crisis facing humans. If they could not think of a way to solve this crisis, even if humans did not die, they would definitely suffer heavy losses.
"Can't we humans find any equipment at all?"
Guhan looked at the human elites who were still surrounding him and said with a heavy expression, "The most important thing now is food. If we all work together, can we create a nutrient solution synthesizer?"
"It's impossible, Your Majesty …" A white-robed director of the Ministry of Science and Technology lowered his head and said with tears in his eyes, "The nutrient solution synthesizer is not a device that can be manufactured by ordinary industries. It involves many key components made of special materials. If these special materials can't be manufactured, it's absolutely impossible to manufacture nutrients and deposition."
"How long will it take to produce these special materials?" Guhan asked helplessly.
"Your Majesty … producing these special materials requires special equipment too … but to produce these special equipment requires specialized machine tools … and to produce these specialized machine tools requires a huge industrial machine … Your Majesty, please forgive us for being straightforward, but if we can guarantee the supply of food and materials, it will take the Research Department and the Industrial Department more than three years to complete the entire set of equipment, Your Majesty!"
The supervisor's words undoubtedly hit the bottom of the hearts of the participants. Three years was most likely enough for all humans to starve to death. How could they possibly have three years?
Guhan finally realized that the thing that threatened the survival of humans was not Yuan Kou, but their own stomachs. However, no matter how capable Guhan was, there was no way he could make food out of thin air … not to mention that it was food for 200 million people.
