Am I the only one who didn't ascend?

The Desolate Demon is the ancient monk who transformed the Desolate?

Han Wu's words successfully made Wang Luo stop what he was doing.

Because he really didn't know about this.

After coming down from the mountain, Wang Luo has always been diligent and studious. When working every day, he was distracted in Taixu Zhaotang, absorbing all the knowledge about the new world... To this day, although he dare not say that he has learned about the new immortal calendar The Hundred Kingdoms of the Immortal Alliance are well understood, but there is no shortage of important common sense.

However, any common sense he knew did not include the fact that ancient monks were equal to wild demons.

But on the other hand, there are actually too many ambiguities in the historical materials about the Battle of Dinghuang. The book only says that the pioneers fought bloody battles with the Desolate Demon, and finally completed the Desolate Desolation after decades... However, there are no details about what the Desolate Demon is, what it is made of, what weaknesses it has, how to deal with it, etc. described. History books only give a few very broad definitions: Desolate demons are "creatures" that are born from desolation and whose instinct is to pollute and eat away at all living things. And desolation is the widespread pollution that was born after the fall of the fairy world and the transformation of heaven into desolation.

Judging from this description alone, the wild demon seems to be an alien creature descended from the sky.

However, considering the 1,200 years of the New Immortal Calendar, desolation has eroded the civilized world all the time, and the consequences of these erosions, one cannot help but make some assumptions.

900 years ago, Zhou Guo's Changsheng Lord was infected by desolation. Although his appearance remained unchanged, his heart was completely possessed. He spent decades single-handedly pushing Zhou Guo into the abyss, and even threatened the entire civilization of the Immortal Alliance. of existence.

More than 100 years ago, Yueyang's pioneering work suffered a heavy setback. The owner of Chilou Tower, who was in charge of a country's intelligence system, not only caused nine out of ten core members of Chilou to be killed or injured, but also led an assassination attempt on Lord Butian. The current leader of the Yueyang Kingdom was seriously injured and on the verge of death.

And on the border between civilization and desolation, similar tragedies only happen more often. In Nanxiang's Desolation Corps, there are cases of unfortunate people turning desolate into demons almost every year.

Then, the problem became obvious: even people within the Dinghuang enchantment could not completely isolate themselves from the erosion of desolation. So what should the unprepared Jiuzhou practitioners do when Heaven falls?

At the beginning, the founding fathers fought desperately, but who was the opponent who was unwilling to leave detailed records?

The answer is almost ready to be revealed, and it is exactly the same as the answer announced by Han Wu at this time.

"It seems that you have expected it." Han Wu sneered, "In fact, it is not difficult to guess. Although the records are strictly restricted in the history books, everyone is not blind, and countless people have guessed correctly. . And with the prosperity of Taixu Illusion, folk history books dare to write anything... Even if your identity is officially recognized, the people may not care about it, and they can even invent you and you in private. Between the king and even the lord, there were some stories about the ancient monks renewing their relationship, which kept the people of Taixu Division busy every day...but the people of Yueyang definitely cared about it. The tragedy caused by the wild demon happened in 100 Many people who experienced it many years ago are still alive.”

Wang Luo nodded and agreed with this statement.

Han Wu added: "In front of the desolation, everyone is equal. No matter how powerful you are, you are almost defenseless in the face of the erosion of the desolation... But in comparison, the defense of the ancient monks is obviously worse, or in other words , the ancient monks have more reasons to actively embrace desolation."

This sentence made Wang Luo surprised: "Actively embrace the desolation?"

"Transforming wasteland will not cause death, but will make people gain more power." Han Wu said frankly, "So when the Changsheng Lord rebelled, Zhou Guo's civil and military forces were unable to control it, and it was only through the leadership of the Lord that he could suppress it. Extermination. The owner of Chilou Hall transformed into a wasteland and killed more than half of his subordinates... You must understand that what limits our cultivation to Nascent Soul is not our natural qualifications, but the great law. Desolation, abandonment of the Great Law, then the restrictions cease to exist.”

Wang Luo asked: "It sounds like your contemporaries have more reason to betray."

Han Wu said: "This is wrong. Although throwing yourself into the wilderness can gain more powerful personal power, it also means losing the possibility of coexisting with the civilized world - you can lurk for decades without being discovered, that's all. Once you are discovered No matter how high your status is, people will never stop dying. Compared with ancient monks, modern people are much more dependent on the civilized world. "

After a pause, Han Wu tapped the empty plate in front of him with his chopsticks and said: "Take the store's signature dish, straw-smoked amberjack, as an example. It uses wild amberjack from Minghai and incense grass from Zhouguo Yulin. , Mo Lin’s ice charcoal, and..."

Wang Luo interrupted: "None of these are what you said. The fish is farmed, the grass is improved and produced by Beishan City Farm after introducing varieties, carbon..."

Han Wu spat: "Fuck, you are so black-hearted... But what you said can better illustrate the power of the civilized world. Without a prosperous civilization, who will copy these excellent ingredients for you in batches? Want to eat smoked food? Fish, go travel all over the Kyushu continent to collect ingredients.”

Wang Luo recognized this truth: "After living in this convenient society for a long time, living alone is indeed a bit unbearable."

Han Wu added: "Let alone smoked amberjack, if you let most contemporary people leave the illusion of Taixu for more than a day, the symptoms of addiction will torture them to the point of death. You can just grab someone on the street and ask him to cultivate. Improve your level on the spot, but from now on you are not allowed to see the Taixu mirage or play with the Taixu picture scroll. Nine out of ten people will call you crazy. "

Wang Luo continued: "But for ancient monks, modern civilization may not be so attractive."

Han Wu said: "And for modern people, breaking away from the constraints of the Great Law is equivalent to losing the assistance of the Great Law. If you want to condense the elixir in just ten years and have a baby in twenty or thirty years, it is almost impossible. It’s a fantasy. And if they are used to the speed of the past, and then let them face the slow practice of ancient monks who often start in seclusion for hundreds of years, people may not think that this transformation is very profitable. "

Wang Luo said: "But for the ancient monks, one or two hundred years is just a snap of the finger - even if you flick it five times, the end is coming."

"In short, there are too many reasons for the ancient monks to choose to transform the wilderness. However, in the past one thousand and two hundred years, there have only been a handful of truly ancient monks, and now there is only one king left. They have all gained through countless bloody battles. Innocent, and you, you are the only genuine ancient monk who has not paid the certificate of surrender."

Wang Luo concluded: "Pioneering Pioneer was originally my certificate of nomination, but now it seems that I still need a certificate of nomination?"

Han Wu said: "This is the worst case scenario, but now that the Golden Deer Hall has named you as a pioneer, it is equivalent to endorsing you with the national reputation of Zhu Wan. In theory, you don't have to do anything. Just wait for the people from Jinlu Hall to argue with the Immortal League. However, our common goal is to complete the great cause of pioneering, not to fight to the death with the opposition of the Immortal League, so if you do some things, it is definitely better than not doing it. ,Right?"

Wang Luo said: "What's the matter? Let's talk about it first."

Han Wu pondered for a while and asked, "Are you interested in going back to your hometown?"

"Hometown?"

"The hometown you wrote on Jianmu Zhizhong is the wasteland of Nanxiang."
