Chapter 946

~8 min read 1,520 words

Regarding the recruitment of the Heavenly Court, Gai Nie was not tempted at all.

After all, he knew clearly that there has always been a great rift between the Heavenly Court and the human race, and they were even in a state of opposition.

Gai Nie came from the Ghost Valley; although the Ghost Valley cannot compare to Confucianism or Taoism, the Ghost Valley naturally possesses some secret records, and Gai Nie naturally had seen these secret records.

What's more, having once served as a guard for the King of Qin, he had seen even more ancient secret records in Great Qin; whether it was the history of the Yin Shang or the history of the Great Zhou, he understood them better than those in the outside world.

Regarding the Heavenly Court, the human dynasties have always been in a state of opposition; even in the Great Zhou, although the Zhou Emperor once submitted to the Heavenly Court, later on, there were also people who constantly stood up to resist.

Not to mention the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors of ancient times, as well as the Xia and Shang dynasties.

Especially the Yin Shang, where the opposition was particularly intense.

By the time of the current Great Qin, he was very clear about that King of Qin's attitude toward the immortals and gods of the Heavenly Court, so the opposition between Great Qin and the Heavenly Court had already formed.

As the orthodox human race, the Great Qin Dynasty of the Jiuzhou might very likely break out into a war with the Heavenly Court in the future.

The war between the human race and the immortals and gods has not been without precedent since ancient times.

And it has happened many times.

Of course, a true large-scale, all-out war has not occurred; after all, the human race is favored by the luck of the Primordial World, and the Heavenly Court does not dare to wage a large-scale war against the human race, only constantly using other means to weaken the power of the human race.

The strength of the human race is getting stronger and stronger; during the Great Qin period, Gai Nie was also very clear about the power of Great Qin.

Gai Nie knew that the overall strength of the Heavenly Court was certainly stronger than that of Great Qin.

But it is impossible for the Heavenly Court to descend to the lower realm in its entirety; if the two sides have a great war in the future, it will also maintain a boundary.

I am afraid it will only be a battle between the top powerhouses.

Then we will see the outcome; if Great Qin wins, then the influence of the Heavenly Court on the human world will be weakened to the extreme, and there might even be no belief in any immortals or gods in the human world.

And if the Heavenly Court wins, then Great Qin might perish, or it might become like the Western Zhou back then, bowing its head and submitting to the Heavenly Court.

As a human, Gai Nie naturally hopes that the human race or Great Qin will win, so he ultimately rejected the recruitment of the Heavenly Court.

Although he knew that with his status as a Sword Immortal, he would certainly be valued in the Heavenly Court and would definitely have a great chance to break through to a higher realm in the future, he still did not agree.

Then, without hesitation, he prepared to return to the Great Qin of the Jiuzhou, ready to serve Great Qin.

However, now that he had learned of the changes in Great Qin today from Zhang Liang's mouth, he was also very happy in his heart.

Happy for Great Qin, and happy for the human race.

He also knew some of the wonderful uses of luck; the common people at the bottom of Great Qin will not lack food in the future, and the population will inevitably increase significantly from now on.

The benefits of having a larger population are also obvious.

Gai Nie also understood this point, and his gaze toward Su Fan changed.

Just that farming matter alone, if it were in the golden age of the Hundred Schools of Thought, that point alone would be enough to become a Sage of the Agricultural School, and his status would not be inferior to their Ghost Valley Ancestor at all, and perhaps even higher in terms of the status of the human race.

However, Gai Nie also believed that the other party's future would definitely be even greater, and he could be called a sage of the human race.

This was the first time he had met a sage of the human race.

Don't look at his cultivation being not low, but during the golden age of the Hundred Schools of Thought, he hadn't seen them; he had only seen the ascension of the masters in books.

Therefore, he also solemnly bowed toward Su Fan; this bow was willing, not only bowing to the other party's status but also bowing to the other party's contribution to the human race.

On this point, no matter what, he himself could not do it.

But for such a person, Gai Nie was full of admiration.

A sage of the human race, having met one, no amount of respect would be too much.

Su Fan was surprised; this guy came up and gave him such a big bow, and he quickly dodged, but he understood the other party's thoughts to some extent.

This was treating him as a sage of the human race.

Although he had never felt much about bringing out those pieces of knowledge, for the humans in this primitive world of the Primordial World, those people could feel the changes.

Perhaps in Su Fan's eyes, those pieces of farming knowledge he brought out were nothing; after all, compared to the modern world with highly developed productivity in the later generations.

Even though he brought out some knowledge about chemical fertilizers, in the end, compared to the agricultural science of later generations, the productivity of this world still couldn't compare.

After all, the seeds of later generations were researched generation after generation.

Indeed, the mythology of this world is unscientific; one can optimize seeds with magic power, but the scope could never reach the large-scale range of later generations.

However, even so, the current food harvest has suddenly increased by one or two times or even more compared to the past.

Such knowledge is enough to make one a god.

Su Fan's reputation in the Fire Cloud Cave is resounding; there are many sages of the human race in the Fire Cloud Cave, but once Su Fan's merit descends, his status in the Fire Cloud Cave will likely catch up with the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors.

After all, this surge in food harvest affects hundreds of millions of humans.

As long as wasteland is constantly developed, there will be more and more food, and human reproduction will no longer be restricted.

In the Earth Immortal World of the Primordial World, there is too much wasteland that people didn't develop before because it wasn't cost-effective.

After all, developing wasteland, apart from the government vigorously promoting it, if one person or one family develops it, the food harvest is too low, which is not cost-effective at all.

But with chemical fertilizer, it's different; even if the food harvest from that kind of wasteland is not much when it is first developed, it is not much worse than in the past.

After nurturing it for a few years, it becomes fertile land.

Over these years, Su Fan and Zhang Liang have not completely ignored the Jiuzhou; they have also often returned and seen the changes in the Jiuzhou.

In the East Sea, especially in the Qi and Lu lands, because the Confucian school has never let go and has constantly helped, the common people in the East Sea Commandery are the most enthusiastic.

Family by family, the fields at home have all doubled in size, especially after the common people acquired the body-tempering techniques, their physical fitness improved significantly, their strength became greater, and reclaiming wasteland became easier; they reclaimed more land, food was not lacking, and they could also temper their bodies.

As a result, many families of six or seven people grew to more than a dozen in just twenty years; the population surged by a factor of one, yet there was no famine at all.

Of course, this is also related to the favorable weather in Great Qin over these years; there were no natural disasters, and the food in the fields became more and more abundant.

The Great Qin of the Jiuzhou is slowly accumulating overall luck and strength.

As for the rebellion of those remnants of the Six States, Su Fan and Zhang Liang also inquired about it; it had no great effect at all and was still blocked within a certain range.

The Great Qin center seems to be doing other things, only sending Wang Ben, a military general.
