Chapter 2220: The Power of All Beings
"Primordial power, that is the power of all beings." The two characters differ, and that is the essential difference in He Lingchuan and Mou Di's understanding of primordial power.
Mou Di gave a faint smile: "All beings?"
When he said those two words, his tone was complex, with a hint of mockery.
"Xinjun also controls the primordial power of a nation; you should know that the laws of heaven and earth have changed significantly in the past few years. Immortals self-detonating their primordial spirits can no longer harm people, and the death-substitution technique has also failed, and so on." He Lingchuan spoke very objectively: "Primordial power is also rapidly changing. I say it is the manifest power of the aggregation of all beings; the stronger all beings are, the stronger primordial power is."
Mou Di glanced at him, thoughtful.
If others said this, Mou Di would only think he was farting, but when the Great Emperor of the Nine Abysses said this, Mou Di would seriously consider his relationship with the Great Square Vessel.
In the world, no one is more closely connected to He Huo and the Great Square Vessel than he is. Being close to the water, he gets the moon first; his insight into the changes in primordial power should also be several steps ahead of others.
"The stronger all beings are, the stronger primordial power is?"
"Isn't that so?" He Lingchuan said solemnly: "In the past, primordial power was not strong enough because all beings were not strong enough. In the past two years, haven't you, Xinjun, also felt the change in primordial power?"
"Yes." Mou Di pondered: "Indeed, it has grown significantly, but the details of the change are substantial."
He naturally could feel the change in primordial power, and this indeed counts as a good thing, but to rely on such-level primordial power to defeat the Great Heavenly Demon is still a fool's dream.
Mou Di had also discussed primordial power specifically with the National Preceptor Wang Xingyi, and they both thought the growth of primordial power seemed related to imperial ooze and the revival of spiritual energy. He Lingchuan today directly stated the cause lies in "all beings": primordial power is strong because all beings have become strong and thus follows suit, which…… is not without reason.
"You allocate primordial power for use in different armies; is the difference great?"
He Lingchuan also did not conceal: "I have conducted experiments, and it is indeed significant. That difference is just like the dry season and flood season of this Zhaoxi Creek."
The difference in flow rate is more than double.
Mou Di nodded: "Mou Guo is also like this."
"The factors affecting primordial power are too numerous and complex, and they probably influence each other, but regarding armies, different commanders are also one of the main factors affecting primordial power." The armies of Panlong City and Cangyan are like this.
The armies led by Wanqi Feng and Qiu Hu have differences in primordial power.
He Lingchuan's Tiger Wing Legion and the Red General's Great Wind Army still have some differences in primordial power.
Mou Di thought for a moment, then chuckled: "All beings rolling in the red dust, a thousand people have ten thousand thoughts, and the foolish and stubborn are nine out of ten. You hope to rely on their power to oppose the heavenly demon? Hah, it's better to hope for one's own brave advancement."
He Lingchuan casually pointed to the village across the Zhaoxi Creek:
"That village has over three hundred residents. In the current and future spiritual energy environment, is it easier for ten cultivation novices to emerge from this village, or for National Preceptor Wang Xingyi to advance further from a hundred-foot pole and become an immortal?"
When he first arrived in this world, heaven and earth's spiritual energy was scarce; one thousand people, no, even ten thousand might not necessarily produce a cultivator; now spiritual energy has revived, all things compete to grow, and new monsters and cultivators are as numerous as bamboo shoots after spring rain. The difficulty of cultivation has changed heaven and earth.
"How many cultivators are there in that village now?"
"According to the statistics from ten days ago, there are three." Those who can feel the birth of true power are also counted as novices, "and another three children also have aptitude; if brought into the sect for guidance, they might also embark on the path of cultivation."
Cultivation, the higher you go, the harder it gets.
Theoretically, National Preceptor Wang's cultivation is profound, he holds primordial power, and he should be one of the cultivators in Mou Guo closest to the immortal level. He Lingchuan judged accurately; he is not far from becoming an immortal.
But no matter how close, the difficulty remains. Even in the ancient times of abundant spiritual energy, demons and humans wanting to become immortals was equally difficult.
From zero to ten, and from ninety to one hundred, although the gap is ten in both cases, the difficulty truly cannot be compared.
This example is simple; Mou Di of course understood his meaning immediately.
Water rises, boat rises, but the premise is "water rises."
Only when the abilities of all beings become generally strong will the power of primordial power become increasingly evident.
Because Mou Guo was founded only over one hundred and fifty years ago, it missed the previous surge of imperial ooze, so it could not record the relationship between primordial power and the strength or weakness of all beings, and furthermore, the laws of primordial power have been changing recently, so the information He Lingchuan now tells Mou Di is very new, making him ponder for a long time.
"In the ancient war, the heavenly demons could not defeat the immortals, were driven back to the demon realm; thereafter for three thousand years, the heavenly demons could not descend to the human realm, and as victors, the immortals gradually declined. The reasons, Xinjun, you must have summarized deeply."
Mou Di nodded.
"To put it simply, this game rule is also very simple: strive to let fewer people die in your own realm, strive to let more people die in the opposing realm, spiritual energy will flow into your own realm, and the opponent will weaken." He Lingchuan did not beat around the bush: "The weaker, the more chaotic; the more chaotic, the weaker. As for the opponent, then, the stronger they become."
The demon realm is a positive cycle, the human realm a negative cycle; stretching time to three thousand years, the result is naturally the decline of spiritual energy in the human realm.
"For the past three thousand years, the heavenly demons have always won, not just because they adapted quickly and well to the new laws brought by the Tianluo Star Belt, thereby deriving regulations superior to those of the human realm, and their organization and distribution methods are also far superior to the Xian Sect."
The way of the heavenly demons: unite, hold councils, strengthen communication and control; even the opposing Tian of the Lingxu Gods, in the demon realm, likewise endures, one side causing trouble for the Lingxu Gods, the other side enjoying their own little lives.
The way of the Xian Sect: the Xian Sect each fights separately, using the power of all under heaven to support one sect, using the power of one sect to support the Laozu Sect, not sparing living beings from suffering.
"If Lingshan could win, in the past three thousand years there have been countless opportunities; it should have won long ago, why wait until now?" He Lingchuan sighed, turned his head to look at Mou Di: "Lingshan, truly unreliable."
If the heavenly demons descend on a large scale, wanting to rely on Lingshan to defeat them is difficult.
Mou Di chuckled: "If Lingshan is unreliable, do you still want to rely on primordial power?"
He Lingchuan said firmly: "It's not that I want to or not; I can only rely on primordial power."
Since knowing the secret of the Great Square Vessel and the Dragon God, He Lingchuan has been even more confident in primordial power.
The most precious legacy the Dragon God left for humanity, or rather the sharpest weapon the Dragon God bestowed upon humanity, is primordial power!
This is because it resolutely sacrificed its divine body to merge into the Great Square Vessel, bringing about the change in laws.
It just depends on how the predestined person uses it.
"This is a great change unseen in three thousand years; before us, opportunities abound. The frequent outbreaks of imperial ooze are opportunities, and the continual changes in the laws of primordial power are also opportunities. Such changes may not necessarily be more favorable to us, but we must adapt to them more quickly, just as the heavenly demons did three thousand years ago."
For the future, He Lingchuan has always been optimistic.
He also must be optimistic.
Mou Di pondered: "What ideas do you have?"
Good heavens, 2200 chapters.
I thought I would never write a book to 2200 chapters in this life.
