Yuan Shi spent thousands of years of research, and finally found the reason for the decline in the quality of pills and magic weapons, that is, the gap between innate spiritual objects and acquired spiritual objects.

It turned out that after the battle of the secret realm, the way of heaven appeared, and the desolate world was promoted, and all the spiritual objects in the desolate wilderness at that time, whether it was the spirit mine, the spirit plant, or the demon beasts and gods and demons, all obtained a large number of merits, and these merits were accumulated before the promotion of heaven and earth, and fed back to all things in heaven and earth.

The spirit plant spirit mine that existed before the promotion of heaven and earth can be called an innate thing, and the demon beasts and gods and demons can be called innate demon beasts, innate gods and demons, and these merits are generated before the promotion of heaven and earth, and the beginning is called innate merits.

The innate thing plus the innate merit makes it contain a miraculous effect, and the origin is called the innate power.

The elixir refined with the innate spirit plant still contains the innate power, so the effect is far superior to the elixir refined by the acquired spirit plant.

And those artifacts and divine treasures are the same, the magic weapons refined with innate spiritual objects, innate demon beasts, flesh and bones, all have magical effects.

Innate power, Yuan Shi sighed, if the ancestors' spiritual treasures are also divided into innate and acquired, the spiritual treasures of the other ancestors have been formed before the promotion of heaven and earth, and they should be regarded as innate spiritual treasures. And Yuan Shi's own spirit treasure, although the materials are all innate things, although the innate power exists, but after the acquired refining, it is no longer pure, and it is not a real innate spirit treasure.

If Heaven and Earth can't be promoted again, my Spirit Treasure will always be weaker than the other Ancestors. Yuan Shi thought.

The promotion of heaven and earth is a matter of the future, and what Yuan Shi has to solve in front of him is the problem of the combat effectiveness of the gods and demons of the Qing clan.

Yuan Shi also dispatched thousands of elite gods and demons of the Qing clan to cultivate them alone, and it took tens of thousands of years to finally find the reason.

This reason made Yuan Shi cry and laugh, but it was because of himself.

Since the Qiankun era, Yuan Shi has paid special attention to the education of his children, especially his nine sons and one daughter, Yuan Shi is carefully cultivated, and the results are naturally remarkable, Yuan Shi ten children, each has elite qualifications, and its growth rate is not weaker than the gods and demons of the Tianjiao level, and the eldest son Yuan Yang and the nine sons of the true king with the highest qualifications, their growth rate is three points stronger than the average Tianjiao, among the gods and demons of the same generation, only the Tianjiao cloud Zhongzi who has also been carefully cultivated by the Yuan Shi can be slightly better than the two of them.

However, for the growth of gods and demons, education is also a kind of external intervention, Xiang Yuanshi, an experienced and capable education master, the gods and demons educated will naturally not be weaker than their peers, but Yuan Shi's experience is limited, and it is naturally impossible to carefully cultivate all the descendants of the descendants, especially now, the number of gods and demons in the Qing family has exceeded one million, and it is even more impossible for Yuan Shi to interfere in the education of every descendant of gods and demons.

Although all clans and tribes of the Qing clan attach great importance to the education and cultivation of their own gods and demons, good teachers are not so easy to find, and those who do better are just teaching their own experience.

This has caused the current situation, most of the gods and demons of the Qing clan are cultivated in a fixed procedure, although the realm is not low, but compared with the gods and demons who grew up in the previous hunting, the combat power is naturally weaker.

Not only that, Yuan Shi thought deeper, gods and demons want to preach, they have to create their own, unique Dao, if the Qing gods and demons are cultivated in the same mode, but they are just some copies, after the middle god, whether it is promoted to the upper god or promoted to the great god, these gods and demons educated by a model, the bottleneck of their Taoism is often more difficult to break through.

This problem has not yet been reflected, but Yuan Shi has already thought about it.

No one can see this problem yet, because in the current civilization of gods and demons, the ratio of high-ranking gods to great gods is quite high.

But Yuan Shi knew that this was only temporary, because most of the high-ranking gods and great gods in the current flood wilderness were gods and demons left over from the Qiankun Era, that is, almost all of them were innate gods and demons.

The gods and demons who survive to the next epoch in each epoch can always share a share of the merit and luck of the previous era, and with the help of this merit and luck, it is easy for them to go further.

And the innate gods and demons can also obtain the innate merits and luck accumulated by the entire heaven and earth in the past countless eons, and it will be easier to progress.

However, with the advent of the Heavenly Dao Era and the Wisdom Era, the innate gods and demons have fallen one after another, and the gods and demons born after tomorrow are restricted by problems such as education errors, and it will be much more difficult to advance to a higher realm. In another epoch or two, the ratio of high-ranking gods and great gods in the gods and demons civilization will be much lower.

As an ancestor, in addition to his own cultivation, only the development of his own descendants is worth paying attention to.

"Is the teacher-student method inherently wrong, or is there a problem in the process of implementation?" said Yuan Shi to himself.

"The method of teachers and students should not be wrong, otherwise there will be no merit from heaven. Yuan Shi thought for a while, and then said: "So the problem should be that the method of teacher and student is not perfect enough, as a teacher, you can't just give your own experience to others and finish the work, the purpose of teaching should be to be better than the blue, and the process of teaching should be that the master leads the door to practice in the individual." ”

When Yuan Shi thought of this, his heart moved, and he had already sensed that the method of teachers and students he founded had been further improved, and a merit had been sent to him from heaven. However, for Yuan Shi, this merit can only be said to be better than nothing.

For Yuan Shi, his merit and luck are enough, even compared with several ancestors, it is not inferior, so Yuan Shi doesn't care about the amount of merit now, what he wants to solve most now is the problem of Jehovah, how to break the perception of Rahu ancestor.

Yuan Shi sat in his cave mansion and thought carefully.

When Yuan Shi was thinking about countermeasures and practicing in retreat, the war between gods and demons in the flood was already in full swing.

Since the fog of Buzhou Mountain was broken, there is no longer a social secret realm battle in the gods and demons civilization, and there is no special battle to settle the grievances between all the gods and demons, so the clans and tribes with grudges often start wars.

With the frequent wars, the rift between the righteous path and the demon path became bigger and bigger, and the two camps of gods and demons gradually formed.

At the time of the Twelfth Tribulation of the Yuan Shi Dao, that is, the twelfth Tribulation of the Age of Wisdom, the Taishang tribe had just ended a war.

Although there are thousands of great gods in the flood wilderness, the eighteen great gods who participated in the battle of the secret realm back then have a transcendent position in the flood wilderness, because more than fifty percent of the gods and demons today are descendants of these eighteen great gods.

Similarly, the tribes under the command of these eighteen great gods are also the most powerful in the flood wilderness, of course, the most powerful and powerful tribes are the tribes under the command of Sanqing.

Like Taishang, in addition to his own tribe, there are nearly a thousand branch tribes, of which there are tens of thousands of people, and there are more than 30 tribes with great gods in charge.

This time, it was a great god named Motian among the descendants of Taishang, and there was a war between the tribe he was sitting on and another large tribe.

The great god of the skyscraper was mighty and killed the great god patriarch of the other tribe, and the great god of the hostile tribe was killed, and the battle was naturally defeated.

The final result was that more than 8,000 gods and demons fell from the hostile tribes, and more than 3,000 gods and demons surrendered.

How to deal with these more than 3,000 surrendered gods and demons has become a big problem.

You must know that in the previous wars between gods and demons, there was basically no surrender, because the same clan was basically blood relatives, once there was a war, and some blood relatives fell, other gods and demons would naturally fight to take revenge, and would rather die.

However, with the emergence of tribes, the blood relationship between tribal members has become more and more distant, and even multiple tribes composed of unrelated clans have appeared.

This is the case with the tribe defeated by the great god of the sky, the great god of this tribe is a foreigner who was taken in by the previous patriarch, and later he was promoted to the great god and inherited the position of the patriarch of this tribe, but the heir of the previous patriarch of the tribe was very dissatisfied with the position of the patriarch in the hands of others, so after the fall of this great god, the members of this tribe had no heart to resist and chose to surrender.

The first time the descendants of the great gods of Ferris encountered this situation, or rather, it was the first time that this situation appeared in the wilderness, and the Ferris had no idea, according to the convention, the war between gods and demons is often endless, ending with the extinction of one party.

But in this war, in the face of more than 3,000 gods and demons who have no will to fight, the great god of Motian really can't kill him, but it is impossible to let go of this tribe, not to mention that there is no precedent in the flood wilderness, that is, the mortal enmity between the two tribes of more than 8,000 gods and demons who died in battle, it is not possible to say that they can let it go.

In desperation, Motian had no choice but to ask the ancestral god Taishang and ask Taishang for guidance.

Taishang had just returned from the wilderness after hunting down the Lord, and when he heard this, he was silent in thought.

After a long time, Taishang said: "Our righteous gods and demons can kill their opponents in war, but they really can't kill gods and demons who don't have the strength to fight back and don't want to fight back." ”

"But if you let them go, in this tribal war, more than 8,000 people died in their tribe, such a big hatred ......"

"This issue must also be addressed. Taishang said: "Letting them go doesn't mean that you have to raise tigers." ”

"What then?" asked Ferris.

"Let me think about it. Taishang closed his eyes and pondered.

"I have an idea, and I don't know if it's feasible. After a long time, Taishang said: "We can control the demon beasts with the blood curse, maybe we can improve the blood curse and use the blood curse to control these gods and demons, if we can, then we might as well let them live." ”

Mo Tian said: "If it really works, these gods and demons can be used to serve us, to raise beasts, to plant spiritual plants, and to save a lot of cultivation time for our descendants." ”

Taishang nodded and said: "This is okay, but the matter of beast control cannot be completely handed over to them, usually contact more beasts, communicate with the ** flow, enhance cooperation, and enhance the combat power of beasts." ”

Taishang said: "You send a few captives, and this seat will try to improve the blood curse." ”

"Yes!"

Three years later, Taishang Cave Mansion and Taishang improved the blood curse.

Heaven has the virtue of a good life, and Taishang's move has made the flood less slaughtered, and the heavens reward each other, and the merits fall from heaven.
