Perhaps many people, after knowing the ideas of ancient civilizations, will feel that ancient civilizations are simply contradictory.

On the one hand, the ancient civilization tried every possible way to control the three cosmic-level civilizations, and on the other hand, the ancient civilization wanted to control the situation and did not want to have a stiff relationship with the three cosmic-level civilizations, and these two ideas were completely contradictory.

After all, you want to control others, you want to oppress and exploit others by controlling the life and death of others, and play others in the palm of your hand, which in itself is a practice of settling enemies, and you want to be in harmony with others as if nothing had happened, and play happily together, which seems to be completely whimsical and unrealistic.

According to the thinking of ordinary people, if the ancient civilization wants to form a symbiotic relationship with the three cosmic-level civilizations, it should not act so arrogantly and unscrupulously, first obtain the understanding of the cosmic-level civilization, and then establish a relationship of mutual cooperation, that is the right way.

But unfortunately, this kind of normal people's thinking is the most inappropriate approach for ancient civilizations.

After all, the innate condition of the ancient civilization itself is there, it is like the natural enemy of the ordinary intelligent race, and it is inherently difficult to gain the trust of other civilizations, if the ancient civilization takes the initiative to run to the door to negotiate with other civilizations, saying that I want to cooperate with you, we will live in harmony and create a better future, and other civilizations are willing to take care of the ancient civilization.

What normal person would want to live in the same room with an ogre and fight for a better life together? I'm afraid I'm scared to death! This is exactly the problem that the ancient civilization needs to face, no civilization will easily believe in the ancient civilization, and when they think of living in symbiosis with the ancient civilization, they will immediately think that the ancient civilization wants to devour their people and suck their blood.

Of course, judging from the past situation, in fact, the ancient civilization did just that, and other civilizations thought that the ancient civilization had bad intentions, but it was not that they were wrong about the ancient civilization.

It is precisely because of these previous black histories, as well as the image of the ancient civilization itself, that it is impossible for the ancient civilization to easily establish cooperative relations with other civilizations, and the symbiotic relationship between the ancient civilization and other civilizations can only be based on the absolute strength of one party.

Especially in the current state of the ancient civilization, the old nest of the meteorite star sea must be re-found with the fastest speed and the highest efficiency, so that the foundation of the ancient civilization becomes solid again, which makes the ancient civilization have no more choice, and must rely on its own strong suppression to obtain its own future living space.

The host civilization chosen by the ancient civilization has no room for opposition at all, and the ancient civilization will only give the other party the option of cooperation or hostility after controlling the key points related to the life and death of the other party.

If you are willing to cooperate, the ancient civilization will be located above the host civilization, become the leader and leader of the two civilizations, and obtain the dominant right of the host civilization, and from then on, the two civilizations will coexist and grow together in harmony and interdependence. If the other party chooses to be hostile, the ancient civilization will definitely not be stingy to give the other party the most complete destruction.

At this stage, the ancient civilization will never have a trace of tenderness, nor will there be a trace of gentleness, but will only give the host civilization the deepest despair and terror, so that the other party can experience what the scene is after falling into the abyss, and let them experience what a desperate scene they can't help but live and die.

Only in this way will the other party have the deepest terror towards the ancient civilization, and will never dare to betray the ancient civilization easily until it is absolutely necessary.

However, because of the profound lessons learned in the meteorite star sea, the ancient civilization would not simply rely on the fear of the other party to maintain control over the host civilization.

In this regard, the ancient civilization can be said to have a lot of understanding and experience.

Simply using authority and fear to maintain the relationship between two symbiotic civilizations, unless the life-and-death bond between the two civilizations is unbreakable and can always bring a certain degree of benefit to the other party, this relationship will sooner or later collapse, and once it collapses, the momentum will be unimaginably fast.

If you want to maintain a stable rule over the host civilization and make the other party dare not betray you easily, you must hold the carrot while mastering the big stick, and maintain a certain centripetal force, which is the long-term way.

Especially a powerful civilization like the cosmic civilization, which has been high above for countless years and has never been condescendingly ruled by other civilizations, if you want to control them, what is needed is not ordinary domination, but powerful ruling skills.

If a powerful civilization like a cosmic civilization is blindly suppressed and threatened with death and destruction, it will not be a long-term solution at all.

Their proud souls and wills are unlikely to be willing to endure the wanton bullying of other civilizations, even if they are threatened with death, they are likely to choose to die together, and even if the ruling class is willing to compromise, the ordinary people of these civilizations may not be willing to accept such humiliation.

Therefore, after the ancient civilization completed the deep control of the three cosmic-level civilizations, it would instead adopt a soft policy towards these cosmic-level civilizations.

In the past, even the citizens of the various civilizations of the Meteorite Star Sea Alliance would harvest in moderation.

Although this kind of harvest is not obvious, it is generally when citizens are about to die, or when they die due to accidents, the souls of ancient civilizations will choose to harvest the souls of these citizens.

This kind of harvesting mode will not actually have any impact on the civilization under its command, anyway, the citizens of these civilizations will normally be scattered after they die, rather than wasting these resources in vain, it is better to let the ancient civilization waste it.

It's just that this kind of harvesting is a waste utilization for the ancient civilization, even if it will not have any actual impact on the civilization under its command, but it will still have an impact on the relationship between the ancient civilization and the civilization under its command.

Even if the civilizations under the command of the ancient civilization did not have much reaction on the surface, in fact, from the perspective of many civilizations under the command of the ancient civilization, the relationship between the two would still be very unbalanced.

Because of this soul harvest, the two suddenly became predators and hunters, one is the one who eats each other's souls, and the other is the eaten.

Such a food chain structure will create a gap in the sky, creating a steady stream of contradictions and crises between the ancient civilization and the many civilizations under its command.

One is a cannibal and the other is a eaten, and there will never be equality between the two, and there will never be real harmony.

To be honest, looking back now, it is really not worth it to cause such a huge confrontation and estrangement between the ancient civilization and the civilization under its command because of these minor problems in soul resources!

It's not easy to want blood food and soul resources, there are too many civilizations in the universe, many of them can be described as meaningless and worthless, and they can't bring any benefits to ancient civilizations at all.

The ancient civilization wants resources, and there is no need to start with the civilization under its own command, choose some marginal civilizations, select some planets with suitable environments, and the ancient civilization can raise the soul donors it needs on a large scale, even if it feels that the soul body raised in this way is not delicious enough, the ancient civilization can also buy a large number of slave resources for its own consumption through various means, and there is no need to hit the head of the citizens of the civilization under their own command.

Although in this way, the ancient civilization still can't change the image of its own intelligent soul devourer, and it can be said that it is still a terrifying protagonist who can stop children crying at night, but at least if this happens, the citizens of those civilizations under the command of the ancient civilization can rest assured, and they don't have to worry that their souls will be swallowed by the soul body of the ancient civilization after they die!

To be honest, in retrospect, it was really not worth it to alienate and estrange civilizations for that little bit of a non-mentionable resource.

The ancient civilization wanted to change its past mistakes, which is the most important and fatal point.

Even the citizens of the three cosmic-level civilizations, what they are most afraid of about the ancient civilization is actually nothing more than this, what they are most afraid of is nothing more than the ancient civilization devouring their souls, slaughtering them unscrupulously, interfering with their civilization policies and guidelines at will, etc., and other ancient civilizations have no conflict with them.

Because the ancient civilization itself is different from the civilization form of the three cosmic civilizations, there is no commonality between the civilization consumption resources between the two, so in fact, there is no conflict and competition between the two in terms of survival resources, and there is a congenital possibility of harmonious symbiosis.

If a cosmic-level civilization wants to survive and develop, it needs all kinds of material and energy resource reserves, all kinds of precious metals, high-energy mineral raw materials, ecological planets, and so on.

However, the survival and development resources needed by ancient civilizations are soul resources, blood and qi resources, and so on, which are simply not used by cosmic-level civilizations.

As long as the ancient civilizations did not choose the citizens of the three cosmic-level civilizations as the objects of prey, there would be nothing between the two that could become a conflict at all.

Once the three cosmic-level civilizations realize that their life and death are in the hands of the ancient civilization, it can be said that they have been forced into a corner by the ancient civilization, even if they choose to compromise, their hearts must be full of great uneasiness, they must think that the ancient civilization may oppress them in every possible way, until they can no longer bear to rise up to resist, at this time, even if they die together, they will be willing.

But ancient civilizations wouldn't have done such stupid things. Because the ancient civilization actually didn't have much demand for the cosmic-level civilization, it was nothing more than that the three cosmic-level civilizations needed to provide a certain amount of protection at certain times, and the cosmic-level civilizations needed to continuously help them expand the scope of the hunting ground, which was not a heavy burden for the cosmic-level civilizations, and there was no need to squeeze it to the point that the cosmic-level civilizations could not tolerate it.

Therefore, the ancient civilization will take a step back slightly at this time, so that the governments and people of the three cosmic-level civilizations can feel the sincerity of the ancient civilization, and let them realize that the symbiotic relationship between the ancient civilization and them is not as terrible as imagined.

In this way, although the cooperation with the ancient civilization will still make some people of the three cosmic-level civilizations dissatisfied, compared to the level of their initial fear, this is obviously enough to make the citizens of most cosmic-level civilizations feel tolerated, at least no one will be willing to die with the ancient civilization for this price.

With this understanding, even if the three cosmic-level civilizations are held by the ancient civilizations, it is impossible for them to easily and completely turn their faces with the ancient civilizations, unless they are sure that they can get rid of the shackles of the ancient civilizations and crack the mystery of the soul virus.

And it is obviously extremely difficult to do this, the three cosmic-level civilizations are now only a little bit of knowledge of the soul realm, and they have not been able to enter the advanced realm at all, how can it be so simple to crack the secret of the soul virus.

Even the soul bodies of ancient civilizations were able to study and understand their own soul viruses very conveniently, but in many cases, they still couldn't completely understand the nature of this soul virus, let alone cosmic-level civilizations that were difficult to study in the soul realm.

Therefore, after controlling the situation to this extent and stabilizing the relationship between the ancient civilization and the three cosmic-level civilizations, the symbiosis plan between the ancient civilization and the three cosmic-level civilizations can be said to be as stable as a rock, and the ancient civilization will also be able to obtain a permanent right to exist in the material world with the help of the power of the cosmic-level civilization.

Even if the earth civilization breaks out of the meteorite star sea again, it will become impossible to threaten the survival of the ancient civilization again, and even with the help of the power of the cosmic-level civilization, the ancient civilization may be able to deal a devastating blow to the earth civilization, which is undoubtedly a very possible thing.

However, once he was bitten by a snake for ten years, he was afraid of the well rope, and the failure in the meteorite star sea also made the ancient civilization have a little more eyes. Let the ancient civilization no longer pin the foundation of its civilization on a certain pillar, because at any time and for what reason, this pillar may collapse suddenly overnight.

Therefore, for the long-term interests of the ancient civilization, the ancient civilization is also ready to support its own political and military forces within the cosmic-level civilization, and bind a part of the overt or covert interest groups to serve as the spokesperson of the ancient civilization, so that it can best consolidate the relationship with the civilization under its command, even if it encounters some unexpected situations, someone can help it speak, so as not to be defeated by the one-sided storm of public opinion, which is also the bloody lesson that the ancient civilization obtained in the meteorite star sea.
