Chapter Ninety-Three: A Detailed Explanation of the Reasons (2nd Update)
This is the core area of the Ancient Cultivation Realm!
Thinking that the heyday of the cultivation realm was the most prosperous period, there were countless powers of transforming gods, merging, and crossing the catastrophe period here, and every thirty or fifty years someone would soar into immortals, cultivators had great prospects, abundant resources, spiritual energy was not scarce, spiritual grass, minerals, etc. were all pitched, it was an era that countless younger generations of cultivators longed for, and it was the root cause of many later generations of people lamenting why they were born at the wrong time, but they didn't expect that they would be able to stand in person on the legendary land today, Lin Lan forgot everything for a while, All that was left was excitement and excitement, and his eyes sparkled and were too brilliant to look at.
Her excitement could be seen even by the people sitting next to her.
Shen Mutian and Helian Qiqing knew that Lin Lan's temperament was definitely not a person who could easily arouse his temper, so he couldn't help but look at her twice, and his heart was full of surprise. But I also knew that this was not a good time to ask, so I had to hide it and talk about it when I had the opportunity for a while.
And the shopkeeper looked strange, and said that there was finally someone who looked like a little - I think they didn't know anything about anything, and it should be the place where the ruins of the Dao were known, but for some reason I didn't know that this place was called this name before. Look, now that he tells the origin of this place, doesn't it remind people?
The pride of being born and raised in a ruined place, he went on to introduce the things about the place. It turned out that after the destruction of the three major sects in ancient times, this area was also seriously damaged. Because the aura is most abundant here. Therefore, when the catastrophe in ancient times reached the last moment, the cultivators of the tribulation period took action one after another, and even the monks of the Mahayana period were involved. There are not enough aura conditions in other places to support these people's shots! So the last battlefield of that great war was set in this place, but at that time, no one thought that the war would be so tragic, not only the high-level monks were lost, but even the aura of this place was extremely overdrawn, after the war, it became a ruin, not to mention, the concentration of aura was also reduced to a slightly better point than nothing.
Such a place is obviously not suitable for cultivators to stay. Therefore, the sects of the cultivation realm moved away one after another, and each found a place to survive. It is unknown how the entire Xiuzhen Continent was divided into countless pieces later, but a considerable amount of it was still retained outside of this land of ruins. This is the formation of today's Upper Continent. And because the land of ruins is no longer suitable for cultivators to live in, it has gradually become a world of mortals, and the vast majority of people who live here are mortals who cannot cultivate, as well as cultivators in the innate stage or qi refining stage with low cultivation.
However, after all, this was the "holy land" of the cultivation realm back then. Even now the scenery is gone. It still has an extraordinary meaning in the hearts of cultivators. When cultivators come here, most of them will have a pilgrimage-like mentality, and naturally they will not show off their might or do evil in this place. And a large part of the mortals who live here are also disciples of the three major sects back then, who are unwilling to leave their homeland and are willing to stay, but in the inheritance from generation to generation, because of the poor cultivation environment, the descendants are becoming more and more degraded, and even eventually become mortals who cannot cultivate. Although they are not as powerful as their ancestors, they still maintain a proud and self-respecting heart. Proud of being a descendant of the three major sects, he has a sense of pride that no mortal in other places has. Therefore, the relationship between monks and mortals here is unprecedentedly harmonious, and the custom of respecting the strong in the cultivation realm has almost become an empty phrase here.
In other words, in fact, in other parts of the Shanghuan Continent, there was still a big difference between cultivators and mortals before, and there was not much difference from other continents.
Lin Lan and the others understood the implicit meaning, and couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief and exchanged glances with each other.
It turned out that it was not that this cultivation realm was too special, but that this place was too special, which was not completely unacceptable to them.
Although the place of ruins has become a "wasteland" for cultivation, it is after all the base of the three major sects back then. How strong the three major sects were back then, they seem to be completely giants now, although they have been destroyed, they have also left a lot of precious legacies. At that time, the treasures of the three major sects were all in this area, and there were countless magic weapons, materials, exercises, and pills...... Even among the sects and families that depend on them, there are many treasures, so the cultivators have not given up this place. Although there have been countless cultivators who have come to explore and found a lot of treasures, the three major sects and their affiliated sects and families are too large, and after so many years, there are still monks who have found treasures here, so in addition to being a place for cultivators to "make pilgrimages", it has also become an important place for them to hunt for treasures. If you can find one or two valuable treasures here, whether it is for personal use or for sale, the benefits are immeasurable, so the flow of people here is bustling and endless all year round, and it is also very prosperous. All the businesses with some names on the Shanghuan Continent have branches here, not to mention those local businesses, and they are even more local snakes that cannot be suppressed by strong dragons.
Because there are more people coming, the order is also chaotic. Originally, the treasures of this ruined place, now the major sects are very coveted, they are all sanctimonious, it is not good to take action in person, and they can't see others brazenly take away the treasures that should belong to them, and they don't want to come again The big war in the cultivation world will hurt their vitality again, so the major sects finally sat down and discussed it, and finally decided to set up an alliance here-Xianmen, so that the major sects can take turns to sit in the village, on the one hand, to maintain the order of this place and ensure the continuation of this "pilgrimage place", It will not be destroyed by a large number of cultivators and their treasure hunts, and on the other hand, it can also solve the problem that each family wants to monopolize the treasure. Each family takes turns to sit in the village, and what treasure can be found during the village depends on its own means, if it can't find anything in a hundred years, it is also its own bad luck, and the next sect will try its luck again.
With such an immortal gate, the order of the Ruins Land is indeed much better. There are several major sects that have joined forces, and other small and medium-sized sects can only second, even if they are unwilling, they have to follow the wishes of the big sects. Not to mention those casual cultivators, there is no room for them to speak. At the same time, due to the large number of high-level monks in the major sects, it also played a great deterrent effect, and some high-level monks in these years, including many monks in the merger period, wanted to rely on their own cultivation to make trouble, and they were also solved by the high-level monks of several major sects, which led to the orderly scene that Lin Lan and they saw at this time.
However, Xianmen didn't dare to do things desperately. After all, there are still many loose cultivators in this world, and the will of small and medium-sized sects cannot be completely ignored, so they do not prohibit other sects or scattered cultivators from coming here to hunt for treasures. As long as they can find the treasure with their own ability and can protect it, they don't mind letting people take away one or two treasures. After all, for a sect like theirs, a few treasures are not something that they can't afford to lose.
As a result, the prosperity of the Ruins has not changed much, and it is still a place where all kinds of people are concentrated. Yesterday, Lin Lan and others heard that the so-called scholar surnamed He was at ease in Qifeng City came from this.
After saying this, the shopkeeper was already dry-mouthed. It just so happened that at this time, Lin Lan and the dishes they ordered were also delivered, and the shopkeeper stopped his mouth, diligently set up a table full of meals, and nodded and said: "A few seniors, these are the signature dishes of this store, in order to provide you with the best food, these things are all with aura, you just have to eat boldly, as long as you eat more of these things, you don't have to worry about the problem of not having enough aura here." ”
Lin Lan and the others suddenly realized, why did they separate cultivators from mortals to entertain? In addition to the issue of their respective identities, the wine and food provided by the feelings to cultivators and mortals are also different! It's no wonder that so many cultivators can also be seen sitting in the restaurant, eating with relish, it turns out that it is not to satisfy their appetites, but to replenish their spiritual energy.
It's not that they haven't eaten the wine and food with the aura before, but the aura contained in the wine and food is really nothing, and eating it is just better than nothing, and it may be of some use to the rookies in the Qi refining period and the innate period, but it will have little effect above the foundation building period, as for their realm, it is equivalent to no effect at all.
I don't know what the characteristics of the aura wine and food on the Shanghuan Continent are!
Shen Mutian nodded with a smile and said, "Let's eat first, you go and get busy, we'll look for you again if there is anything." ”
After speaking, with a flick of his finger, a high-grade spirit stone flicked into the hands of the shopkeeper. Although he didn't know what currency was popular in the Shanghuan Continent, the spirit stones were all common in the cultivation realm, so he was not afraid that he would be exposed because of this.
The shopkeeper saw that it was a high-grade spirit stone, and immediately couldn't help but smile and crooked his mouth, thinking that he was really not mistaken, although these people were a little more hillbilly, but they were generous, and it was not in vain that they were so enthusiastic, and they were so dry-mouthed.
He then put away the reward very quickly, and said with a more flattering smile: "Thank you for the rewards of a few seniors, the little one will go down to see if the accommodation arrangements for a few of you are ready, please use it slowly, and the little one will come up and serve in a while!" ”
After saying that, he hurriedly ran downstairs and went to run errands. (To be continued......)
