Based on Niu Tiezhu's principle of "we come to the county town to enjoy happiness", the three "people" naturally selected the three best guest rooms of Yuelai Inn.

When everything was arranged, He Xiaoshi sat cross-legged on the soft bed, closed his eyes and recuperated.

He had a keen sense of spirit, and when he first arrived at the Yuelai Inn, he sensed a powerful aura of cultivators.

At this time, no matter how calm he was, he couldn't settle down at all.

After a deep groan, He Xiaoshi still got up and walked towards the guest room where Niu Tiezhu was.

Niu Tiezhu's guest room door was opened with a "squeak", and Niu Tiezhu, who was eating dumplings, was taken aback by He Xiaoshi's uninvited.

"Why don't you knock on the door?" Niu Tiezhu threw a dumpling stuffed with pork and green onions into his mouth, complaining vaguely.

He Xiaoshi was not in the mood to gag with this guy, and asked directly: "I sensed the aura of a cultivator nearby, and I believe you are also aware of it." Could it be that there are still a large number of cultivators in this Xinyue County? In this case, I am afraid that you and I will be in danger here, right?"

Niu Tiezhu swallowed the dumplings in his mouth hard, his expression was a little serious, he took a deep look at He Xiaoshi, and said with a hint of envy in his mouth: "Sure enough, it is worthy of being a divine beast of my demon clan, and my spiritual sense is so keen." ”

He Xiaoshi didn't speak, silently waiting for the next step of the bull demon.

"Don't worry, cultivators are not cabbages on the side of the road, they can be seen everywhere, it's just that we are near the City Lord's Mansion, which belongs to the central area of the county town, and it is natural that there are cultivators here, after all, those cultivation sects have to supervise countless mortals. ”

"Let me first popularize common sense for you, so that you can understand the relationship between cultivators and mortals......

With Niu Tiezhu's eloquent words, He Xiaoshi's thinking gradually became clearer.

- - - - - -

As a secular country, the Aolai Kingdom rules over tens of millions of people, and on the surface, it is naturally the supremacy of imperial power, but no matter how powerful the secular power is, it still has to be attached to the cultivation sect.

Within a million-mile radius of the Aolai Country, there are three transcendent human cultivation sects: one door, one hall, and one sect.

One refers to the Heavenly Sword Gate.

Traveling thousands of miles with a sword, holding a sword to slash all evils.

The Heavenly Sword Sect is the most powerful cultivation sect in the entire Aolai Country. For thousands of years, only the patriarch of the Heavenly Sword Sect has cultivated to the peak of Yuanying and successfully ascended to the upper realm.

The first hall is the Xuanqing Palace.

The Xuanqing Hall has a long heritage, and it is said that its roots are in the Middle Earth Divine Prefecture, and it is a true holy place for human cultivation, and it has always been the leader of the cultivation world of the Aolai Kingdom before the ancestor of the Heavenly Sword Sect was born.

One is the Barbarian Ghost Sect, which is based on the techniques of ghost search and soul search, and is intensively studied in the techniques of talisman seals, refining weapons, pills, etc., with a long history and strong strength.

The secular kingdom of the Aolai Kingdom is actually controlled by the hands of these three major sects, and the supreme emperor of the Aolai Kingdom is also decided by these three major sects.

Cultivators, cultivating themselves, seeking to be strong and immortal, most cultivators do not want to be involved in the world too much, but the matter of cultivation requires a lot of resources, so this mortal realm with a large number of mortals, weak strength, and easy to control is the best choice for cultivators.

I only heard Niu Tiezhu continue: "In order to facilitate the control of various places and effectively transmit cultivation resources, the three major sects will send their own disciples to guard each county, so the cultivators you sense should be the disciples sent by the three major sects," Niu Tiezhu was a little thirsty after saying a long sentence, so he grabbed a teapot beside him and poured a sip of tea into his mouth.

He Xiaoshi frowned, and asked with a strange expression: "In this way, the great Aolai Kingdom is actually just a slave under the three major sects, just to provide them with resources?"

Niu Tiezhu rubbed his fingers against the tip of his itchy nose, nodded, and said, "That's pretty much what it means." ”

He Xiaoshi had a thoughtful look on his face.

After a while, He Xiaoshi muttered to himself: "Maybe these three major sects should also have the intention of protecting a large number of mortals while serving their own interests, after all, once there is no powerful state machine, I am afraid that human beings will fall into endless cannibalism......

"No matter what, human cultivators are also born from mortals, and if the mortal world collapses, I'm afraid the life of the three major sects will not be very easy. ”

Niu Tiezhu could hear He Xiaoshi's self-muttering, and at this moment he looked at He Xiaoshi with some admiration.

"This statement of yours is somewhat similar to what my grandfather once said, but my grandfather said that human beings are the most treacherous and selfish creatures, and the root cause of the three major sects doing this is to satisfy their inner desires," Niu Tiezhu said with a faint look of a few memories in his expression.

He Xiaoshi's heart moved: "Your grandfather?"

Niu Tiezhu waved his hand with some annoyance, and said angrily: "Don't mention that old guy......"

Then he changed his words again, and said with a bright gaze: "Speaking of the three major sects, I still want to go to the Heavenly Sword Gate the most, which is the only place where the sword path ancestor who has ascended to the heavenly realm has practiced in the past thousand years. ”

He Xiaoshi had some doubts in his heart, although he had some residual memories of Xiao Xiaotian in his body, many details were not among them.

After hesitating for a moment, He Xiaoshi still expressed the doubts in his heart: "Isn't it true that if you cultivate to the peak of the Yuan Infant, you can fly to the Heavenly Tribulation?"

Niu Tiezhu's eyes widened, and he said loudly: "How is it possible? If this is the case, my grandfather will not have gone to heaven a long time ago? Why has he been struggling in this mortal realm? In the past thousand years, how many living beings have been able to cultivate to the peak of the Yuan Infant, and even to the stage of half-step incarnation, but it is not dust to dust and dust? If you want to break the mortal realm and ascend to the heavenly realm and turn mortal into immortals, you must be a true peerless genius, and it is also an incomparably powerful peerless genius who is not afraid of the heavenly calamity......

"Actually, the really powerful thing is the devil", Niu Tiezhu seemed to remember something, and his voice gradually became lower.

Hearing the word "demon", He Xiaoshi's heart trembled somehow, and he couldn't help but ask: "Demons, are they those creatures who kill people without blinking, do things unscrupulously, do all bad things, and are lawless?"

Niu Tiezhu rolled his eyes and asked rhetorically: "According to what you said, all human beings are considered demons. ”

He Xiaoshi was stunned for a moment, and only reacted after a while, it seems that in the heart of the demon clan, human beings are really heinous.

It's just that what kind of creature can be called a demon?

He Xiaoshi glanced at Niu Tiezhu, could it be the name of a certain race?

Niu Tiezhu also seemed to be stuck in some kind of memory, and he didn't speak for a long time.

After a long time, Niu Tiezhu spoke: "There are demons in the human race, there are demons in the demon race, there are demons in the demons, and even there are demons among the immortals...... Demon is not the definition of a certain race, but ......"

"And what?" He Xiaoshi asked a little strangely.

"The sky has eyes", Niu Tiezhu suddenly said without a head or a tail.

"The heavens have eyes, so they punish evil and promote good. Therefore, justice needs to be adhered to, and evil needs to be suppressed, so good people have good rewards, and evil people have their own evil rewards. So it's not that I don't report it, but that the time hasn't come......" He Xiaoshi's sudden muttering came to an abrupt end.

If this is the case, then the golden crow in the Xuan Realm should have been killed by lightning a long time ago.

Niu Tiezhu glanced at He Xiaoshi strangely.

"The sky has eyes, it's not this, in fact, no matter how many creatures die, no matter how bad your so-called bad people are, the sky doesn't care," Niu Tiezhu's tone became indifferent.

"And what do you mean?"

"Life is flexible, it needs to eat and sleep, even if it is a beast with only instinct, it knows to find food on its own, then this world has existed for countless years from ancient times to the present, and will always exist, and it also needs to eat. ”

"Isn't the survival of the world dependent on the conservation of energy?" He Xiaoshi felt a chill in his heart, and said subconsciously.

Then, it occurred to him that this world was completely different from the world he came from, and he fell silent.

Of course, Niu Tiezhu didn't understand the meaning of "conservation of energy" in He Xiaoshi's mouth, but just said to himself: "The food of heaven and earth, of course, is not what we eat, but the most quintessential aura of heaven and earth. And the most quintessential aura between heaven and earth is the spiritual power that is absorbed and transformed when the living beings are advanced. ”

"Every time the cultivation of any living being is on the next level, a part of the spiritual power contained in the spiritual sea will be sucked away by heaven and earth, and the stronger the cultivation of a living being, the more spiritual power will be sucked away, I believe you have already realized this," Niu Tiezhu glanced at He Xiaoshi deeply, and then stopped speaking.

He Xiaoshi couldn't help but think that when he entered the stage of qi condensation from qi refining, the spiritual power that disappeared inexplicably showed a thoughtful look on his face.

According to what Niu Tiezhu said, those lost spiritual powers should be returned to heaven and earth.

It's like in that world, the state deducts taxes from citizens' salaries every month, and the higher the salary, the more taxes are paid.

It's just that......

In that world, taxes are collected from the people and used by the people, and the "taxes" collected by heaven and earth are also used for cultivating beings?

If, according to what Niu Tiezhu said, the essence of heaven and earth aura transformed by the cultivation of living beings is really used for the existence of heaven and earth, then it is a matter of course.

After all, if this heaven and earth are overturned, the creatures that are attached to this heaven and earth are afraid that they will also end up with a body and a god.

At this time, He Xiaoshi also had some guesses about the so-called "demon......
