"Spiritual energy is the most important substance in the cultivation realm, and it is also the foundation for all monks to cultivate, if you can't absorb the spiritual energy from the outside world when cultivating, then cultivation will have no effect. Although the aura can be slowly replenished through the traction of the sun, moon and stars, the speed of this recovery is very slow, far less than the consumption of everyone's cultivation. Because the concentration of spiritual energy gradually decreased, the growth of heavenly and earthly treasures became more difficult, and even if they grew occasionally, they would soon be discovered and picked up. Now if you want to find the best heavenly and earthly treasures in the cultivation realm, it is undoubtedly countless times more difficult than millions of years ago. Han Miaozhu explained to Su Yaowen the reason for the decrease in natural treasures.

"Then according to what the master said, isn't it that after many years, the aura will eventually be very thin, and it can't even be absorbed by people, and this world is no longer suitable for everyone to cultivate, and a monk without aura is not much different from a wasted person. Su Yaowen thought of the modern people on the earth, if the records in those ancient books were true, if there were really cultivators in Huaxia, would it be because the spiritual energy was excessively depleted, and all kinds of inheritances withered and scattered, and finally became a world where cultivation could not be achieved.

"It's not impossible for you to imagine it, but if you want to wait for the aura to be consumed, at least hundreds of thousands of years later, we will have already turned into a touch of loess by then, how can we know. Han Miaozhu's expression was no longer indifferent, but replaced with a hint of loneliness.

Regardless of whether Su Yaowen listened carefully or not, Han Miaozhu said to himself: "More than a million years ago, the world at that time was full of rich aura, and all races were able to absorb aura, and they didn't need to cultivate at all. Treasures can be found everywhere, and you can pick up a few of them when you go out for a walk, compared with now, like fireflies and bright moons. After the strength of many great powers is strong enough, they can directly break through the barrier of heaven and earth and go to a higher world. ”

"Hundreds of thousands of years ago, the aura began to weaken, and the human race appeared the theory of spiritual roots, only those who have spiritual roots can contact cultivation, and those who do not have spiritual roots can only become mortals. Because the number of cultivators has decreased, and the aura can support for a long time, the number of high-level cultivators in the entire cultivation realm has also begun to increase. Each major sect has dozens of Mahayana monks in charge, and the Yuan Infant stage monks can only be regarded as lower-level combat power, compared with the current situation, there is still a big gap. ”

"Beginning 10,000 years ago, because of the great weakening of the aura of heaven and earth, the number of monks in the Mahayana period decreased rapidly, and many of the monks who survived in the late Mahayana period, in order to escape from this increasingly weak world, were forced to break through the barrier of heaven and earth and enter a higher world. ”

"Until now, although we are known as the ten major sects of the righteous path in the cultivation realm, the highest cultivation in the sect is only the late stage of the merger, and the number is not much, although each sect strictly guards the specific number of people, but it is estimated that there is no more than one hand. Maybe after another 100,000 years, the Merge Period Monks will not appear again, and then the sects with the Distraction Period Monks will be able to dominate one side. ”

Su Yaowen didn't expect that the cultivation realm seemed to be prosperous, but there was such a terrifying crisis inside, and the harm of global warming on the earth was not far from diverse.

"Since the spiritual energy will decrease, will the spiritual stones that have been precipitated by the spiritual qi also slowly decrease?" Su Yaowen immediately thought of a serious problem, as a monetary unit in the cultivation realm, if the spiritual stone could not be regenerated, it would be a serious problem.

"Spirit stones will indeed slowly decrease, everyone has known for a long time. In the past, people didn't trade spirit stones, but a kind of spiritual energy crystals called spirit crystals. This kind of spirit crystal is divided into three grades, just the worst inferior spirit crystal, and the amount of spiritual energy contained in it is also ten thousand times that of the best spirit stone. At that time, the spirit stone was only a trading currency used by monks who cultivated below the Yuan Infant stage, and high-level monks traded directly with spirit crystals. ”

"Spirit crystals began to decrease hundreds of thousands of years ago, and until more than 100,000 years ago, they were no longer seen, maybe some sects can still keep one or two, but they will not be easily taken out. After all, the sect established tens of thousands of years ago, the defensive arrays set up at that time were all based on spirit crystals as consumption resources, if the best spirit stones were used to activate the defensive array, not only the effect would be weakened, but the defense time would also be greatly reduced. ”

"In addition to being able to make a resource reserve, the spirit crystal is also an excellent tool to assist in cultivation, because it contains a large amount of pure spiritual energy, which can be directly absorbed into the body and transformed into the corresponding attributes of the absorber's spiritual root, the effect is more than several times more than that of the spirit stone, even those who are new to cultivation can safely absorb it. Although Han Miaozhu has never seen Lingjing, he has seen relevant introductions in books.

Lingjing?Su Yaowen didn't expect to be able to get such important information from Han Miaozhu's mouth, although he had read a lot of books in the library pavilion in the sect, but the ancient books about the hidden history of the Xiuzhen Realm could only be read in the Yuan Infant Period book collection area, and there would be no such history on the Internet, so it was the first time Xiaomi had come into contact with these materials.

"Isn't there any spirit crystal in the spirit stone vein?" Su Yaowen felt that if he could find the spirit crystal, he might be able to solve the problem of his slow progress in cultivation.

Han Miaozhu shook his head, "If I could find the spirit crystal, I would have been robbed a long time ago." Now that the spiritual energy of the cultivation realm is weakened, the pure spiritual energy possessed in the spirit crystal is the most urgently needed resource for the monks in the merger period, if it can be traded to them, it will definitely be able to exchange for a lot of money, and the high-level of the various sects do not want to find the spirit crystal. A few years ago, the reason why the ancient monk's cave house overseas attracted so many people was that everyone wanted to see if they could find spirit crystals nearby. The current spirit stone veins, being able to find the best spirit stones are already considered rich ores, and many ore veins can only find high-grade spirit stones. ”

"Actually, I'm really curious about the mysterious organization behind the phone, where did they get such a big confidence, and they actually have so many top-grade spirit stones to give away as prizes, it's really an exaggeration, even I am a little tempted to participate in one. Han Miaozhu smiled.

Well, after listening to what you said, master, in fact, I regret it to death! Although Su Yaowen's face has not changed, in fact, his heart is already dripping blood, Nima's real loser! I want to take back the previous spirit stones too many words that I don't know how to use, the more spirit stones, the better! No, if you want to develop a few new online games immediately, you must slash a few more hard knives on those local tyrant players, otherwise I will feel uncomfortable!

"Then haven't you thought about solving the problem of weakening the aura?" Su Yaowen temporarily suppressed the urge to harvest the spirit stones, and instead asked the master if there were any solutions for the various sects.

"There is only one solution, and that is to reduce the number of cultivators. Han Miaozhu smiled bitterly, "The monks of the Demon Gate are good at collecting and replenishing the Yuan and refining the soul, and they often slaughter low-level casual cultivators, so the high-level figures of the righteous path often restrain their disciples, and they don't easily provoke a big war in the name of it, but in fact, they don't want to slaughter some scattered cultivators who are not used by them through the hands of the Demon Gate to reduce consumption." ”

it! So vicious? This is too frustrating, isn't it? Su Yaowen had felt that many people in the righteous path were hypocritical before, but he really didn't expect to be so ruthless.

"The relationship between the drunkard elder and Zhong Limo is very bad, and it is also because of the massacre of low-level monks by the Demon Sect back then. When Elder Drunkard was still a low-level monk, he made a few close casual cultivation friends, but he didn't expect these people to be killed by the people of the Demon Gate not long after. When Zhong Limo was also found at the scene, he did nothing, and watched those innocent cultivators being killed, which angered the drunkard elder. Later, there was a big war between the two because of this, if it wasn't for the elders of the sect at that time to stop it, Zhong Limo might have been abolished, instead of being seriously injured. This is also the reason why the drunkard elder never shows mercy when fighting with the people of the Demon Gate. Han Miaozhu exposed a piece of the past.

It's no wonder that when he was overseas a few years ago, the drunkard elder would have such a big reaction when he saw the people of the Demon Sect, and it was not without reason that Senior Brother Bai would be accepted as an apprentice by him. Su Yaowen found out last time that drunken Taoists always target the Demon Gate, and now he finally knows the reason.

"But the scattered cultivation of the cultivation realm is more than a trillion, even if you let the demon gate kill, how much can you kill, this method is not advisable at all. Su Yaowen objected, he came from the rule of law society on the earth, and he was very disgusted by this method of careless disregard for human life.

"You think clearly, but other people are not as smart as you, maybe not unintelligent, they just don't want to miss the cure. Dead friends don't die poor, it's really not just talking. Han Miaozhu's expression was a little lonely again, and he didn't know what he remembered.

It seems that something seems to have happened to the master, but Su Yaowen is just an apprentice, so he has no right to casually probe the master's past, so he has to pretend that he didn't find it.
