The most important thing was, from beginning to end Chen Ling never even raised a finger, and he couldn't even clearly see how he summoned such a rock centipede. The Second Hall discovered he couldn't see through Chen Ling at all, and this precisely showed that Chen Ling's strength might be far above his.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In just a brief exchange, the Second Hall realized that relying solely on himself and Lu Liangren, it was absolutely impossible to stop this theatrical robe figure...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old friend of the Red Dust, what was that?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The abstract eyes on the picture frame just stared at Chen Ling like this. Suddenly, he seemed to have remembered something...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Lord of the Red Dust's old friend, most likely was also the Chief's old friend... Great crimson theatrical robe, super strong strength, mysterious origin... Could it be he was...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's you... it's actually you?!\" The Second Hall's voice trembled slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You know me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I heard him mention you before...\" A trace of complexity surfaced in the Second Hall's abstract eyes. \"When the Red Dust Base was just established, your legend was always circulating... It's just that now, probably no one remembers anymore.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ling's heart trembled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He took a deep breath, slowly opening his mouth:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So, you are someone from the Great Cataclysm period.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Back then, it was the Chief who saved me... When he established the Floating Life Painting, I was right by his side.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young Lu Liangren looked at Chen Ling and the Second Hall with a dumbfounded face. He seemingly couldn't understand how the few people who were at daggers drawn just now, suddenly started reminiscing like old friends who had been separated for many years?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing the Second Hall's answer, Chen Ling's eyes lit up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then you should know what happened these years, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You... don't know?\" The Second Hall sized Chen Ling up, his tone somewhat strange.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's a long story... I disappeared from this world for more than three hundred years.\" Chen Ling answered. \"These three hundred years... no, everything that happened from the start of the Great Cataclysm until now, I am unaware of.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Second Hall was one of the rare people who existed since the Great Cataclysm period and lived clear-headedly until now. From him, Chen Ling might be able to know what happened during this period he disappeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Second Hall was silent for a long time, still slowly opening his mouth:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"After the Great Cataclysm occurred, the world fell into chaos, the original order completely collapsing. The eight doomsday bases became humanity's final sanctuaries...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"After these eight bases appeared, they took in a large number of citizens, and even some survivors who fled from overseas. Everyone found a safe place, had enough resource supply, and all thought this catastrophe was about to end...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But subsequently, the Gray World began to intersect with Earth, and a massive number of Calamities flooded into this world, continuously impacting the eight bases.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And during this process... a person appeared.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He called himself the Ninth Monarch, a human [Emperor] from the past. It was unknown where he recruited a batch of powerful subordinates from, abruptly carving out a large piece of pure land in that era where even the eight domains could only barely protect themselves in the tide of Calamities... And then, he established a brand new domain.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"They called it... the [Chengtian Domain].\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"In that era, the Chengtian Domain already possessed two Demigod [Dukes of the State], nine 8th-rank [Marquises of Thoroughness], and countless 7th-rank [Heavenly Captains]. They became the strongest mainstay against the Gray World Calamities... They recruited a large number of Path of the Artisan, widely built city walls, rushed to repair domain train tracks, and stabilized humanity's chaotic situation.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"At that time, everyone pinned their hopes on the [Chengtian Domain], feeling that the Ninth Monarch would definitely be able to lead humanity to repel the Gray World Calamities and recapture the national territory... And during that process, the other eight Monarchs were also rapidly growing, everything prospering.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But what that Emperor did next exceeded everyone's expectations.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He secretly guided the eight major bases and the last human higher-ups to push the hibernation plan. When the other eight Monarchs were about to go into slumber, he suddenly launched a mutiny, unleashing a massacre in the major bases, and taking advantage of the panic and chaos to forcefully control the political power of the eight major bases...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Because at the time the other seven Monarchs had already entered a semi-hibernation state, even if they could vaguely perceive the situation outside, they couldn't easily awaken. After all, once they awakened, they could no longer fall into a deep sleep, and humanity would also lose a place to shelter decades later... They could only watch helplessly as the bases changed hands, and after being put in some kind of shackles themselves, thoroughly slumber and lose consciousness.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But the Lord of the Red Dust was an exception...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Just as she fell into slumber, the Red Dust Base suffered a nuclear strike. The crowd who had just completed the mutiny at the time had no choice but to actively undo her hibernation state. After the Lord of the Red Dust resisted the nuclear explosion, she was furious, killing all those Chengtian hidden pieces who had long been hiding in the base.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"She originally wanted to find that Emperor to demand an explanation, but was jointly besieged by the two Demigods of the Chengtian Domain. Ultimately, that Emperor who had likewise stepped into Demigod personally struck, forcefully suppressing her together.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"After they suppressed the Lord of the Red Dust, they forcefully injected her with hibernation potion. But because there was no way to extend her lifespan, she only fell into a deep coma.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That Emperor seemed to have foreknowledge. He had people escort the Chief whose wings were not yet fully fledged back then over, telling him that if he wanted the Lord of the Red Dust to survive, he could only sacrifice himself to perform Human Body Embroidery. This was the only way to save her...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Although the Chief hated the Emperor to the core, in order to save the Lord of the Red Dust, he still complied...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"After that, the Chengtian Domain recaptured the political power of the Red Dust Base again. They spent a long time building insurmountable high walls on the periphery of the eight domains, naming them 'Prisons'...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And then, among the domain citizens, they continuously strengthened the concept of 'Prisons', guiding the citizens to walk out of the domains and take root and live in the outer cities they built.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As time passed, those domain residents who once followed and believed in the eight Monarchs successively died of old age. Their descendants also gradually left their respective domains, becoming residents of the outer cities. The status of the Chengtian Domain became increasingly heavy in their hearts, while they instead didn't really care about the eight major domains that once protected them...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"In a sense, the Chengtian Domain successfully 'instrumentalized' the eight Monarchs, only using them to maintain the domains... And the residents of the original eight major domains had already been spiritually assimilated by the Chengtian Domain. They didn't understand any division of domains. In their eyes, they were just citizens of the Chengtian Domain in different cities.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the Second Hall's painting scroll, a hand was sketched out, pointing at the Red Dust beneath his feet:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Nowadays...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This Red Dust Domain is nothing more than a 'ruin' that no one cares about.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1290,"2026-05-30T14:16:54.154Z","2026-06-01T04:31:26.536Z",1,"novelbin.me","f46456e1b5032a5b3ecdba1799a11eab74c88c03ba189652f8a8f219c1db6352","i-am-not-the-god-of-drama-chapter-1705","i-am-not-the-god-of-drama-chapter-1703",1902,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-am-not-the-god-of-drama-cover.jpg"]
