Chapter 564: Eternal Problem
He Zhiwei glanced at Xu Xingkong, and said with a slightly serious expression:
"First of all, I suggest that Elder Xu should carefully consider whether to disseminate the new theories and knowledge you have on a large scale. ”
Xu Xingkong nodded a little embarrassed, as if he had already guessed that He Zhiwei would say this, but what he was embarrassed by was the words 'new theory' and 'new knowledge', it was obvious that Xu Xingkong was not a new thing, but a theory and knowledge that was very popular in ancient times.
"I'm ashamed, is this sarcastic to me? These things are brand new to me, but in your opinion, they are picking people's teeth, right?"
He Zhiwei shook his head:
"Elder Xu misunderstood, I'm not sarcastic about you, what you have is indeed new theories, new knowledge, even if I know that similar spells and spiritual weapons did exist in ancient times, but their theories are probably not exactly the same as your theories, not to mention that the knowledge system and theoretical system have been constantly updated for thousands of years, and it is not comparable to the primitive level of knowing what it is and not knowing why it is in ancient times. ”
"Huh, do you know anything about the magic theories of the ancient times?"
He Zhi smiled slightly:
"I know a little bit, but now is not the time to discuss these things, let's get down to business, I mean, we can't be sure if the current diffusion of this knowledge will not repeat the mistakes of the ancient times, although the number of intelligent life on the earth is much more than in ancient times, but we still can't be sure that the cultivators continue to gather to control the primordial spirits, whether it will lead to the collapse of the normal life system on the earth. You must all know very well that a cultivator's thirst for the primordial spirit is completely endless, and when the cultivator's strength reaches the out-of-body or conjunctive stage, the primordial spirit that can be controlled is extremely terrifying. ”
Xu Xingkong couldn't help frowning when he heard this, this is indeed a very serious and unavoidable problem, what's worse is that Xu Xingkong doesn't know what the number of Yuan Spirits the earth has as a whole, nor does he know the increment, let alone whether the strength of the cultivators has been generally improved, and after the number has increased greatly, whether the entire Yuan Spirit Environment can support it.
Now Xu Xingkong somewhat understands why the great power of the ancient period will take the initiative to interrupt the inheritance, maybe they also don't know if the expected situation will happen, but on the one hand, there is a growing and endless demand, and on the other hand, it is a Yuan Spirit that cannot grow quickly and infinitely, and the contradiction between the two seems almost irreconcilable.
Therefore, the great powers of antiquity chose to cut the chain of growing demand, thus preventing a possible catastrophe, and now, this problem is finally Xu Xingkong's turn to have a headache.
Xu Xingkong subconsciously glanced at Lin Xiaofeng, Lin Xiaofeng was looking at Xu Xingkong with concern, the two of them looked at each other, and at the same time showed a smile, Xu Xingkong's heart was quiet, he cleaned up some complicated thoughts, and slowly said:
"Senior, this issue is very important, please allow me to consider it slowly. ”
He Zhiwei nodded:
"Yes, I'm just reminding Elder Xu, speaking of which, we are also ashamed, including the Yixue Research Association, have been trying to figure out the relationship between the growth and demand of the Yuan Spirit for so many years, but so far, we have still not been able to estimate the total amount and increase of the Earth Yuan Spirit. ”
Xu Xingkong nodded understandingly, it is indeed a very difficult thing to estimate the total amount and increment, you must know that not every intelligent life produces the same Yuan Ling, a person with active and energetic thoughts, compared with a person with an energy saving faction, must produce more Yuan Ling.
The estimate of non-intelligent life may be better, but the calculation of the total amount of non-intelligent life is also a problem.
"However, we can still monitor that the concentration of Yuan Ling has a tendency to accelerate, and the acceleration increment is getting higher and higher, which may be related to the informatization and networking of the entire society. Even so, we still can't estimate whether the current state will be disrupted if a large number of high-level cultivators appear. ”
Xu Xing thought for a while and said:
"Rest assured, I will not spread my theories and knowledge on a large scale until this is confirmed. Of course, my view is not as pessimistic as that of my predecessors. ”
He Zhiwei's eyes lit up, and he looked at Xu Xingkong with interest and asked:
"Oh? ”
Xu Xingkong straightened out his thoughts and said:
"I think there are several aspects that the predecessors may have overlooked, or underestimated, firstly, with the continuous improvement of the average level of knowledge of intelligent life on the earth, as well as the popularization of the network, as well as the growth of the number of intelligent life, the rapid growth of the Yuan Spirit should exist for a long time; second, the level of practitioners has not improved as fast as we think, in addition, I think that practitioners should be able to self-discipline and not occupy too much free Yuan Spirit, I mean most of the practitioners; finally, I think that high-level practitioners will also produce a certain number of Yuan Spirits while occupying more Yuan Spirits, perhaps, the number of Yuan Spirits will be higher than we expectedWe can study this point. ”
He Zhiwei thought about it seriously and said:
"However, there is a limit to how much the earth can accommodate intelligent life. ”
Xu Xingkong smiled:
"The universe is so big, there will always be a day when it will go out, and if the number of cultivators increases, it should be possible to accelerate this process, and cultivators should have taken on the responsibility of exploring the way for intelligent life on earth. ”
He Zhiwei nodded and said:
"Why does Elder Xu think that cultivators won't improve so quickly?"
"It's very simple, what you see is that the existing strong people will improve rapidly because of the emergence of new theories, which will greatly increase the number of strong people, but you forget that those cultivators who have a larger number, the emergence of new theories will not speed up their cultivation speed at all, but only increase their actual combat ability and broaden their horizons, and the new theories are basically only meaningful for the promotion of cultivators above the distraction period. ”
He Zhiwei was silent, and Xu Xingkong continued:
"Moreover, we can completely ask the cultivators who have obtained the new theory to promise to occupy as few Yuan Spirits as possible, and at the same time, in order to maintain a certain combat power, we can consider letting go of the use of the Dragon Vein, so that they can use the Dragon Vein to mobilize the Yuan Spirit when needed, instead of accumulating a large number of Yuan Spirits in peacetime. ”
He Zhiwei nodded noncommittally, Xu Xingkong's suggestion involves a more detailed level, there is indeed room for operation, and it can indeed solve some problems in the short term, but if this time period is extended, all aspects involved are not simple, and people's hearts are the most unreliable thing after all.
However, Xu Xingkong's suggestion does not need to be further studied and discussed, however, in Xu Xingkong's suggestion, the authority of the tomb keeper is raised, if everyone uses the dragon vein as a backup energy pool, then the tomb keeper organization will become an institution to manage and restrain the cultivators in disguise.
Perhaps, this is Xu Xingkong's kind response to the grave keepers' organization?
Everyone also had their own thoughts when they heard this, and even the Changying Daoist frowned slightly, Xu Xingkong's simple words were equivalent to redividing the top interests of the cultivator's circle, if his suggestion was really implemented, a new power structure would inevitably arise, which was both a bad thing for the Yixue Research Society, but also a good thing.
Among the people present, the most happy to see it is, of course, Zhang Chaodong, as the organization with the smallest vested interests among the forces present, of course, I hope to get the opportunity to reshuffle the cards, not to mention, now that the organization represented by Zhang Chaodong has participated in the formulation of the reshuffle rules, it will definitely be able to get more shares than the existing one.
Moreover, in the future described by Xu Xingkong, the role of the government is extremely important, which is of course the biggest good news for Zhang Chaodong.
While everyone was turning their minds, He Zhiwei spoke again:
"Elder Xu is reasonable, this matter still needs everyone to sit down and discuss it carefully. ”
"Of course, I don't think there's anything we can't talk about, after all, this is a major event related to everyone's future, and I think everyone should be able to treat it sensibly, after all, there are examples of the ancients. ”
"Indeed, then the question of the higher the strength, the more Yuan Spirits will be generated... As far as I know, although the stronger the strength, will indeed produce more primordial spirits, but these primordial spirits are bound to the generator's primordial spirit and body, and will not cause... Wait, what do you mean..."
Xu Xingkong looked at He Zhiwei's wide-eyed eyes with a smile, and everyone was equally stunned, in fact, they didn't understand what He Zhiwei had figured out, and what Xu Xingkong meant by looking confident.
Xu Xingkong raised his eyebrows and smiled:
"Yes, the correct way should be to disperse your own Yuan Spirit first, and then absorb the same amount of Yuan Spirit from the surroundings to assimilate and refine, this process can not only improve the purity of the Yuan Shen, but also enhance the fit with the Yuan Spirit, and more importantly, you can double the structure of the Yuan Spirit World and the rules of the real world through this process. ”
He Zhiwei looked at Xu Xingkong in surprise:
"You could have thought of that? And you told me that..."
"It's not strange to think of this, but if there is no theoretical support in my grasp, this approach is meaningless, because the focus is on the process of dispersion and convergence and refinement, as for your questions later, in fact, I don't think there is really any need to keep this secret, because the method of diffusion is good for everyone, isn't it?"
He Zhiwei sighed with emotion, looked at Xu Xingkong deeply and said:
"Then we just need to figure out whether the Yuan Spirit we produce can meet our own needs, and if so, how big the gap is!"
Xu Xingkong smiled;
"Satisfied? Yes, it's a good word, as long as it's enough, and if you want to be greedy, I think that's almost a witch. ”
Everyone suddenly understood that the last point was the key, if Xu Xingkong's theory and speculation were really true, then the death situation that plagued the cultivators in ancient times might be solved, thinking of this, everyone couldn't help but show a hint of relief on their faces.
