Dimensional Invasion: I Can Fish for All Heavens

Chapter 15 The unequal value of life stems from human arrogance.
Su Mengyao couldn't help but sigh as she said this.

Ultimately, it stems from human arrogance. Although they say "all lives are equal," they know better than anyone the truth that "life is unequal."

If this is the case between humans, then it goes without saying that it applies to other races besides humans.

When the unfit ones among rats, cockroaches, cheetahs, and tigers die due to the natural law of "survival of the fittest," no one cares, and neither do the animals themselves.

But it wouldn't do if the unqualified among humans died because of them.

Because of the unequal value.

Even if a rat mutates, it's still a rat; even if a tiger mutates, it's still a tiger. How can you compare it to humans? Even if they are ordinary people without any special abilities, it's the same.

Therefore, in their eyes, when an ordinary person dies because of a mutated creature, it is still a tragedy even if they kill the mutated creature.

Does it matter what the mutated creature that was killed thought?

"If that's the case, then it makes sense."

After hearing Su Mengyao's explanation, Ye Xuan's doubts were resolved, and he nodded.

Survival of the fittest is a very simple principle.

Spiritual energy brought about the evolution of all life on the entire planet Earth, but only life forms with the aptitude could evolve, while those without the aptitude were not qualified to evolve.

Therefore, it is only natural that these unqualified lives will die.

They may die because of their own weakness, being killed by their own kind or by their natural enemies. It may take some time, but they will definitely die.

But humans are different.

Humans have no natural enemies on Earth, and because of human order and rules, even ordinary people without qualifications cannot be killed by qualified superhumans.

However, those mutated creatures were unaware of this; their intelligence was insufficient for them to comprehend the uniqueness of humans.

So when they are powerful enough, they will start hunting humans, and because of the large number of ordinary people among humans, the vast majority of those they hunt will be ordinary people.

Death then becomes inevitable.

From the perspective of natural laws, this is a manifestation of "survival of the fittest".

The process eliminates ordinary people without qualifications, leaving behind more qualified superhumans. Through generations of elimination, only qualified humans remain.

From a human perspective, however, this is a conflict between races, and they would never allow a group of mutated creatures to hunt humans so openly and blatantly, thus disrupting human peace.

"But what is the spiritual energy tide?"

Ye Xuan was somewhat puzzled.

Although the concept of spiritual energy tides exists in the novel, it is not reality; he did not know how to define the spiritual energy tides that occur on Earth.

"If the spiritual energy revival that began three months ago only caused spiritual energy to appear on Blue Star, and the concentration of spiritual energy was not high, then the spiritual energy tide is an anomaly before the large-scale increase in the concentration of spiritual energy."

"I don't know the specifics. Current technology is also unable to explore the source of spiritual energy or how the spiritual energy tides occur."

"The reason we were able to determine the spiritual energy tide is simply because someone in our Tian Shu Bureau has awakened a precognitive ability."

Su Mengyao didn't really understand spiritual energy tides, and current human technology couldn't explain the reasons behind them.

The reason they knew this was simply because there was a person with precognitive abilities within their Tian Shu Bureau. This person saw the future of the spiritual energy tide in their precognition, and therefore knew that the spiritual energy tide would occur in the future, but they did not know when the spiritual energy tide would come. They had only seen this fragment.

"Predicting the future?!"

"Under dimensional invasion, would superpowers like foresight exist?"

If this world were simply a world of spiritual revival, then he would have no doubt about the emergence of superhumans capable of foreseeing the future.

However, their world is not just about the revival of spiritual energy; it is also being invaded by dimensions at the same time, and the products of human imagination have appeared in reality.

In this situation, it can be said that everyone who obtains the treasures of the heavens has the ability to change the future; if the treasures of the heavens that the other party obtains have enough weight to influence the operation of the world, the future would probably have long been an unknown.

Under such circumstances, how could there possibly be a superhuman who could foresee the future?

"It's just a glimpse into the future, and only one of countless possibilities."

Su Mengyao understood Ye Xuan's meaning and offered an explanation.

Ultimately, the so-called prediction of the future is simply seeing one of the infinite possibilities of the future, and only a fraction of them.

They could neither use this ability to find the owners of all the treasures of the heavens in advance, nor could they find those with exceptionally high talent. They could only prepare for the crises that might arise in the future.

But that was enough for them.

At least in the event of a future disaster, their advance preparations will allow them to minimize the crisis; however, it is impossible to completely eliminate it.

"Besides Elder Zhong, are there any other holders of celestial treasures in the Great Xia Dynasty?"

Ye Xuan had basically learned everything he wanted to know from Su Mengyao; this was the only thing he was curious about.

However, he wasn't particularly concerned about it, since with the [All-Heavens Fishing System], he could obtain a different kind of treasure from the heavens every month.

Given enough time, he will naturally become the strongest in the world.

The reason I asked was simply out of curiosity.

When Su Mengyao heard Ye Xuan's question, she didn't answer immediately. Instead, she looked at Ye Xuan with a slight smile and a hint of cunning in her eyes.

Clearly, if Ye Xuan wanted to know the answer to this question, he would have to tell her the answer to the question she had asked earlier.

Ye Xuan understood the meaning behind Su Mengyao's expression, and a hint of helplessness flashed in his eyes.

"What I received was a template for imperial power and hegemony."

Now that he has learned so much from Su Mengyao, he will naturally keep his promise and tell her what she wants to know.

However, he did not say that the template he obtained was from his youth, nor did he say that his template was different from Zhong Lao's template, and that he could obtain the full power of the template itself without having to act.

Although he trusted Elder Zhong, who had merged with the Zhongli template, he would not reveal too much of his strength until he could completely ignore all the dangers on Earth.

"As expected, he is the holder of the template for all characters in the heavens."

Su Mengyao nodded in satisfaction. Compared to the Wangquan Sword, she actually preferred that Ye Xuan obtained the Wangquan Heye template.
