0027_The Things Inherited by Civilization
The cultivation world has a history of more than 3 years, which seems very long, but some data show that before this, there was actually a more prosperous period of national cultivation.
At that time, there was no mortal world at all, and the whole world was extremely rich in spiritual energy. Everyone was born with spiritual roots. The stories of ascension in the legends are also handed down from that period.
Later, a great cataclysm occurred, the aura decreased sharply, and mortals without spiritual roots began to appear on a large scale. The mortal world and the cultivation world became two different parts with less and less intersection.The stories of ascension to immortality have all become stories, and the only story of ascension power that is considered to be supported by evidence is the one who ascended in the first year of the current cultivation calendar.However, I can only say that the story about him is very detailed, and there is no problem in logic, and there is no inconsistency. There is no record of jade slips at all.
There are gaps in the history of the realm of comprehension, but in comparison, there are more historical breakpoints in the realm of mortals.Originally, the mortal world was separated from the realm of self-cultivation... mutants under natural selection. At the very beginning, they were very nostalgic for the world of self-cultivation, and lived in the template of monks everywhere.But obviously, they who have no spiritual power and their limited lifespan can't support such a life at all.
The first thought of a mortal who is dragged down by his lifestyle is not to change himself, but to drag the monks into the water.At that time, the number of mortals was far greater than that of monks, and the overall strength of monks was severely limited because they had not found a more suitable cultivation method in the aura environment.
The two sides fought a battle, and in the end the mortals were defeated miserably, still because of their lack of spiritual power.They did not give full play to their advantage in numbers, but were obsessed with using magic weapons, using their own weaknesses to attack the other's strengths, and they would naturally fail.
After the war that hurt both mortals and monks, mortals really began to find a path that suits them, and monks really began to distance themselves from mortals. Outside of the cultivation world, try not to overlap with the mortal world.
After the mortal world got rid of the aura, it started to look for alternative energy sources suitable for its own use, such as wind, water, light, fuel... electricity.Yes, electricity is now commonly used in the mortal world.In my opinion, it was quite a weird scene. People dressed in ancient times used electric lights, played with computers, and drove trams...
Yes, trams, the most common form of land transport, 'cars' are not common here.Perhaps influenced by the single mode of comprehension world that only uses aura as energy, mortals have also converted all raw materials into electrical energy.The battery technology is quite developed, and it is used to replace the role of the spirit stone in the spirit energy.
Speaking of which, as long as the cultivation calendar is, so should the history of the mortal world. Even though the dynasties change frequently, the total number of years is not short. With the development of more than 3 years, referring to my previous life, human beings should have rushed out of the planet, out of the galaxy, made friends or enemies with aliens, and the interstellar era has flourished and so on.
But in fact, although there are differences in the direction of technology, the overall level of development over the past 3 years has not shown a higher level than the development of thousands of years in my previous life.It is still possible to rush out of the planet, but unable to travel to the stars, no other planets suitable for human survival have been found, and no stable communication with aliens has been established.
The main reason for this is that there is a gap in the culture of the mortal world, more than once, and more than once the mortal world is on the verge of destruction.
Since the legendary cataclysm that caused the aura of the entire planet to plummet, large-scale disasters in this world have occurred at an average frequency of once every 1 years.Severe cold, extreme heat, earthquakes, floods... Civilization collapsed again and again in such disasters sweeping the world, and even the classics of the cultivation world were difficult to preserve in such disasters—this is how the fragments my mother found—— Not to mention the mortal world.
Don't expect monks to protect mortals either.There is no prejudice or indifference in that kind of life and death. They all have the same root, and the conflicts and contradictions that have existed have become legends with the passage of time and constant running-in, which is not worth mentioning.Those who can protect nature will take action to protect it, but the problem is that monks can hardly protect themselves in the catastrophe, and they don't care about ordinary people at all.
During the catastrophe, the aura of heaven and earth is abnormal, and everyone with spiritual roots will be affected. For example, those with lightning roots can be struck by lightning, those with ice roots can be frozen into lumps of ice, and those with fire roots can live. Those who survived were abused to become mighty—this part of might is the most important thing that keeps the civilization of the cultivation world from being completely destroyed like that of the mortal world——if they can’t become mighty, they either have excellent luck and become another In this sense of power, or all hung up.
Therefore, it is said that civilization has developed continuously for more than 3 years, but in fact it can only take a fraction.Especially in the mortal world, even if there are still a few fragments of civilization left before the catastrophe, which can be used as a reference for today's people to avoid detours and make the process of redevelopment less hindered, but look at the example of my mother playing herself to death with reference to the fragments Recreating the past is not an easy task, and it is hard to say whether it has saved detours because of this, or just the opposite.
0028_Xingling root
Both the comprehension world and the mortal world are all pursuing the matter of washing the spirit root.The so-called washing of spiritual roots is to use heaven, material and earth treasures plus complicated methods to finally wash non-spiritual roots into five-spiritual roots, five-spiritual roots into four-spiritual roots, until double-spiritual roots are washed into single-spiritual roots.
Oh, and washing a single spiritual root into another sharper single spiritual root, such as a single thunder spirit root, is simply the ultimate pursuit of all sword cultivators.
In fact, if you look at the ancient classics, that is, from 3 years ago and tens of thousands of years ago, except for the non-spiritual roots that were washed into five-spiritual roots, everything else is evil. The reason why the non-spiritual roots were washed into five-spiritual roots The removal of one does not mean that it is not crooked, but that in ancient times, in the era of universal cultivation, there were no such people with spiritual roots... It is hard to say that there were absolutely no such people, but it was basically negligible.
At that time, the cultivation environment was very good, and the single spiritual root with the fastest cultivation speed was somewhat underestimated because of the least change, but the five spiritual roots became more unpredictable and more powerful in the later stage.At that time, reverse washing was popular, from single spiritual roots to five spiritual roots.
But it’s not working now. Although everyone knows that if the five spirit roots can be cultivated to the stage of transformation and Mahayana, it must be powerful. In terms of survivability, Wulinggen should be on par with Shan Leilingen's swordsmanship. The lines shown are soft and hard, but they are all shockingly powerful.
But the problem is, let alone the stage of transforming gods, if the five spiritual roots can build a foundation now, they must be praised as very savvy, and if they can get the golden core, they can only feel that it is a miracle.
The five spirit roots are so difficult, and the four and three spirit roots are not much better. Only the double spirit root can show a little more advantage of the diversity of the spirit root than the single spirit root, but it is hard to say that this advantage will be lost in another 1 years. It will not be completely wiped out, because even now, many double spiritual roots are envious of the speed of single spiritual root cultivation.
future potential?That's too far away, and many double spiritual roots can't practice at all to the state where they can see that double spiritual roots are more advantageous than single spiritual roots - people like my father can't be seen everywhere.
It is never easy to change something that is born. Whether it is damaged or optimized, it will be a pain for the person involved.A long time ago, although the materials needed to reduce the refining of spiritual roots were not very common, at least everyone had the opportunity to get them together.The main thing the parties need to do is to make up their minds to take the shortcut of future narrowing and take away the pain of training.Now, the materials are not easy to get together. With the back of a big tree like my brother, I haven't got a piece of materials together until now.
Yes, my brother has always wanted to collect ingredients for washing spiritual roots, but the main purpose of collecting materials is to fight against my sister. After all, my sister has a single spiritual root, and he has two spiritual roots. Based on current values, it sounds low. My brother will definitely not be able to bear it.Even though my father has already come forward to say that Shuanglinggen also has an infinite future, but my brother still has a heart about it.
"Actually, I haven't thought about whether I really need to wash it. According to the current collection progress, I haven't got [-]% of my Nascent Soul, but after the Nascent Soul stage, there is no difference between single and double spiritual roots." My brother said "However, we still have to keep looking for materials. Even if I don't use them, you can use them. Even if you don't need them, we can still sell them. Even if you think it's too bad to sell them, you can still use them for barter. The consumables for washing the spiritual root into a single spiritual root are all treasures that can be encountered but not sought after, and they are all of great use."
I said: "Whether you wash it or not is up to you, I will definitely not wash it. I still feel that my spiritual roots in this life are related to my obsessions in my previous life before I died, and I must not forget my roots."
My brother: "Is that how 'forgetting the origin' is used?"
I bit an apple I planted with my own hands, and said that it is used in this way-I like my wood system, it is very useful to grow and eat, just like the ice system is very easy to attack, both are indispensable.
