Destiny is ashes

Chapter 852 The Real Plan (23)

There was some panic at first, but everyone present was an elite and they quickly realized what was going on - if nothing unexpected happened, this Stardust Dragon should be a member of the mysterious force behind An Xuan, who lost his mind for some reason and broke into the ancient immortal ruins. One of the purposes of An Xuan coming here this time was to take this Stardust Dragon back!
"I can't thank you enough for saving my life."

As the most famous and powerful cultivator present, Chen Yunfei once again stepped forward to thank An Jing. An Xuan glanced at him and waved his hand, saying, "Now is not the time to hide anything. Let's not talk about these empty words. Brother Yunfei, how much do you know about all this?"

“There are indeed speculations.”

Chen Yunfei sighed and said directly: "This series of plans are closely linked, all of which are the plans of the ancestors, and we, the younger generation, are all pawns and cannon fodder... Of course, people like me, Qi Luoyang, and Feng Yuxuan may be very precious pawns, or seedlings that need to be cultivated, but in general, it doesn't matter if we die."

"If nothing unexpected happens, and there are still Daoists who are able to connect with the outside world, you can ask them. There should be demon riots in the four major spiritual vein cities now, right?"

Although they had lost the power of the Great Void, some teams that had opened up key Great Void nodes still had a certain ability to receive messages from the Great Void. Qi Luoyang was one of them. He sensed it carefully and was immediately shocked: "It's true! And... it's not just the four major cities!"

He raised his head in disbelief and looked around at everyone present. He was not afraid even when facing death, but his voice trembled a little: "The front lines in the Demonic Land and the Great Rift Valley have collapsed, and most of the 360 ​​Zhoutian Fortress positions have been blown up. Now there are only more than 100 that have news... The wilderness area has almost fallen, and there is not much news to be heard!"

"The Demonic Nation has launched a full-scale invasion. In just half an hour, the number of casualties has exceeded seven million!"

Seven million. Although it was far less brutal than the sect war in Huaixu where billions of people were killed or injured, and even an entire domain was emptied, it was already quite terrifying for the Tianyuan Realm.

Hearing this number, An Jing raised his eyebrows, and Chen Yunfei sighed: "It is true. These lives are the sacrifices."

He smiled bitterly and shook his head, glanced at An Jing, then turned his head and said to the other Tianyuan Realm cultivators: "You may not know that the spiritual veins of our Tianyuan Realm have long been infected by demonic energy. The power of heaven and earth can no longer purify itself. It must be helped by the 'human' Qi in 'heaven and earth' to maintain cleanliness."

"The reason why the four major cities gather so many people is to purify this central spiritual vein. The war between the safe zone and the wilderness is essentially a process of using human energy to purify the world and regain the spiritual vein. Because it is essentially for the spiritual vein rather than reproduction and the development of living areas, we must wait until the spiritual vein is completely digested before a new war of development can begin."

"This time, the sudden death of so many people will certainly make it difficult to maintain the spirit veins in the future, but the sudden increase in human spirit evil... will ensure that the spirit veins of all human-ruled areas will never be taken away by monsters in a short period of time!"

"This, isn't this just using those people as sacrifices?!" Hearing these words, everyone was in an uproar. Because they were young people, before their lungs were frozen, they could still be filled with righteous indignation: "What exactly are the ancestors going to do?"

“This is just the beginning.”

At this moment, Feng Yuxuan also spoke. Only the heirs of the top families like them could know a little bit of this kind of news, and his tone was extremely heavy: "Although I only know some details of the scraps, I have always been very clear... For the ancestors with long lifespans and almost immortality, we, the descendants, are originally used for consumption."

"Now is the time for a great war. You, me, and everyone in the city and the safe zone are probably the fuel of war!"

After hearing this, the people who were still angry suddenly fell silent.

Because for the immortal way, this is indeed an unsolvable problem.

In a world with insufficient resources and a limit, if old practitioners do not die, then new practitioners will never have a chance to succeed, because the number of Daotai Yuanying is fixed, and the breakthrough of Zhenjun is also controlled. Although there is no limit on Zhenren, many Zhenren died in the war, so there is a means of natural consumption and natural replacement. Many people present are heirs of big families, but who doesn't know that as long as they don't become Zhenren, they are all ants in the end? Their names sound good, but for the elders above, it is nothing more than the result of repeated internal circulation of raising Gu.

If they are not the best, even if they are the winners of raising Gu, they will be ruthlessly abandoned in the end. Because the reproduction of a generation of people only takes twenty years or even less, and their lifespan is as long as ten thousand years or even longer, they have enough time to select successors who are truly better than themselves.

"That's why we have been promoting spiritual practice among all the people."

Behind the crowd, Huo Qing muttered to himself. The question that had been on his mind for a long time was answered at this moment - why, when resources were so scarce and internal circulation was so serious, did the Tianyuan human race still implement the system of full cultivation during the Dao Court period? Huo Qing really felt that if it was not for all people to practice, but only those with talent and spiritual roots were allowed to practice, then not only would the practitioners not have to be so internally involuted, but the lives of ordinary people would also be better!

But now, the whole nation practices cultivation in order to increase the "human qi" so that it can guard the spiritual veins, and also so that at the critical moment... everyone can die and become fuel!

"really."

An Jing understood in his heart, "I said that theoretically the Tianyuan Realm does not need so many ordinary practitioners. If it really needed them, they would not let them live such a depressing life... Now it seems that these people are simply the human mine of the ancestors of the Tianyuan Realm!"

Since it is a mineral, it naturally does not matter whether it is a high life or a low life. Since it is a mineral, it naturally does not matter whether it has a future or whether it can become a talent!

But in fact, the plans of the human rulers of the Tianyuan Realm were more ambitious than all the young people present could imagine.

[An Jing, something is wrong! ]

The voice of Patriarch Haotian suddenly became solemn. He condensed a water mirror in the Anjing Sea of ​​God: [The direction of this soul does not seem to be simply guarding the earth veins and seizing the initiative]

[An Jing, is this what we want to do?! ]

Hearing this, An Jing looked at Shui Jing, and was slightly startled: "Actually?!"

What appeared in the water mirror was a scene beyond his imagination, or rather, something he had never expected to happen in Tianyuan.

With the disastrous defeat caused by the sudden attack on the front line and the riots in the city, a large number of spiritual cultivators in the early stage of Qi Refining in the Tianyuan Realm, or even those who had not yet reached the Qi Refining stage, died in large numbers. Their souls overflowed and were then accepted and integrated into the ubiquitous spiritual network.

It is true that part of the spiritual network was interrupted by the attack of the rebellious demons, but the main road has never been destroyed. The souls of these dead people followed the spiritual network of the Tianyuan Realm and gathered in the core of the four major cities, and then...

Just like that, it was downloaded into one [body of a puppet].
