Chapter 404 Zhongzhou
Zhongzhou is the center of the twelve prefectures of the Dingzhou Dynasty and the most powerful state.
A thousand years ago, the "Central Plains Fight" that was recorded in history occurred here, also known as the "competition for the Central Plains" among the powers of cultivators!
It is said that in that battle, more than 500 forces were involved, including seven top forces, which once formed a situation of "seven heroes competing for hegemony".
You know, at that time, the top seven families had huge foundations and an ancestor who was like an immortal god like a god in the realm of Transformation.
So what kind of magic power does Zhongzhou have that has attracted these top forces and immortal gods to compete for it?
This is what we need to talk about the resources for cultivating immortals again.
As we all know, in this world of immortal cultivation, everything is inferior, but only the cultivation of immortal cultivation is high.
The imperial power of the Dingzhou Dynasty was based on the fact that it once had many powerful cultivators.
But as those powerful cultivators set up sects and "established themselves as kings", the imperial power was gradually undermined.
The emperors in the imperial family for generations are either mortals with no cultivation or "mediocre people" with low qualifications and cannot break through to the Qihai Realm in their lifetime.
In order to make such an emperor better control and let the emperor do their work honestly.
As for why no top force established the court and became the emperor on its own.
hehe.
In this world of cultivating immortals where the strong are respected, the imperial court is nothing in the eyes of most cultivators.
What is the responsibility of the court and the emperor? It is to govern the country.
To put it bluntly, don’t let all the mortals starve to death, otherwise the major immortal cultivators will use to attack "social animals"... Oh, no, it’s recruiting disciples.
Although practitioners who have reached a high level of cultivation have a long lifespan, they are not in the event of accidents.
How many cultivators in the immortal world who die of old age?
Isn’t it all for the purpose of competing for the resources of cultivating immortals, and they fight to the death... and most of them have become cannon fodder of major cultivating immortals.
Therefore, this part of the loss has to be selected from the mortals, one in a thousand, and one in a thousand, and one in a thousand, and those with the qualifications to cultivate and supplement it.
Therefore, no cultivator is willing to do the "mixed work" of the court and the emperor.
To sum up it up;
In the eyes of cultivators, mortals without cultivation qualifications are straw dogs.
In the eyes of cultivators, those with some cultivation qualifications can at most be considered social animals.
If you have better cultivation qualifications, you will have the opportunity to upgrade to a "senior working person".
There are only a very few talented people who can establish sects and join the ranks of cultivators.
As for the court and the emperor, they are considered herders of the "animal herdsmanship".
The above only represents the three views of individual cultivators, and most of them are powerful and top forces.
It can also be said that the more dense the cultivation resources, the more powerful the place where the power is concentrated, the more serious this phenomenon will be.
The power of cultivators in Jiangnan Prefecture is much better, and they have already deeply realized that all beings are equal.
If you treat others as ants today, then someone may regard you as ants tomorrow.
And those powerful forces who have been in a place with abundant cultivation resources and have always been high and have not yet realized this...
After Wang Liang and Ling Yuyan stepped into the boundary of Zhongzhou, they deeply felt what class division is.
This is just a small town on the edge of Zhongzhou, but you can see it from a glance;
Apart from the cultivators wearing silk and satin, there are only mortals and people who are not covered in clothes.
Even having a meal in a restaurant, I heard these conversations and remarks from a group of practitioners at the table;
"There are a few new disciples recruited in the sect recently, and no one can do anything to us."
"Well, that's not because the mortals and people are not doing well and have fewer and fewer people with qualifications to cultivate."
"If it weren't for our cultivators' essence that could not be easily leaked, I would have wanted to go there myself, so that those mortals who are so beautiful will be pregnant with my cubs, hehe."
"Actually, I feel that it is not that fewer and fewer people with cultivation qualifications are born... The number of ordinary people is getting smaller and smaller, and they seem to be unwilling to give birth."
"Does we put too much pressure on them, making them almost unable to afford to eat, wear clothes, or live in a house..."
"Superficial! Only when the pressure is too high can they make their efforts more. If the pressure is too low, they will lose the motivation to work hard."
"Yes, we put pressure on them, that's for their own good. Think about it, only when they have a bad life can they think of having more children and then producing one with the qualifications to cultivate will turn over?"
"Haha, yes, that's right. If they don't have a child, it only means that the pressure is not enough, and you have to increase the pressure."
"Tsk tsk, on experts, you still have to be the ones..."
Listening to the laughter at the table, Ling Yuyan, who was disguised as a man, was so angry that she broke the chopsticks in her hand.
Wang Liang quickly sent a message to her;
"Senior sister, don't be impulsive. This is Zhongzhou. It has complex forces and is more dangerous than other states."
No one was killed at the scene, so although Ling Yuyan was angry, she could still control her voice and replied with her silver teeth;
"The cultivators in this place are so bad! Even the mortals and the people themselves can't live happily, so why do you use to give birth to a child?"
Wang Liang sighed and sent a voice to him;
"Senior sister, this is what I told you. The joys and sorrows between people are not connected."
"From the moment these practitioners were born, they had golden spoons in their mouths. How could they really understand the sufferings of the mortals and the people?"
"But they became the people who ruled the mortals and used their self-righteous views to make some unrealistic instructions."
"I remember that in my hometown, there were some so-called experts. When someone asked him how to prevent poor people from becoming poor."
"Those experts say it's easy to keep poor people from being poor anymore. Renting idle houses and private horses out to pull carriages can make you rich."
"Hehe, but he didn't know at all that poor people had no houses and no horses to ride, so how could they get rich in the way he said?"
"Senior sister, are you laughing at this kind of person?"
Hearing this, Ling Yuyan burst into anger and laughed.
But after just a little laugh, her face calmed down again;
"The mortals are really too miserable. People who say the kind of words that don't eat meat are not only ridiculous, but also kill them!"
Wang Liang shook his head;
"Senior sister, killing someone like that can't change the world, killing a hundred people, that's the same."
"If you really want to change this world, first of all, we will become extremely powerful. Truth will always only exist within the range of magic."
Hearing this, Ling Yuyan nodded;
"You are right, strong, we must become stronger..."
