Mythological origins

"Brother Han, why do mortals have a harder time after they can cultivate immortality?"

After Han Yu poured wine on Mo Tianxie's grave, Mo Fengwu asked him the same question.

She used to live a life of ease in Tai'an City, but now she has to fight with others for a little cultivation resources.

Even if she doesn't really want to rob others, there will always be desperate people who want to rob her. She feels that her heart is too tired when she is forced to fight.

"I..." Han Yu hesitated.

In the market of Huangfeng Valley, he heard many true spiritual root cultivators complain about these pseudo spiritual root cultivators, saying that there are too many pseudo spiritual root cultivators, making everyone's life very difficult.

After all, not everyone likes to risk their lives every day, tying their heads to their belts to kill people and rob treasures.

Most Qi-refining cultivators are used to earning spiritual stones by relatively peaceful means, such as helping to work in the market.

However, there were too many pseudo-spiritual root cultivators pouring into the market, and the supply exceeded the demand. In order to find work in the market, they kept the wages extremely low.

Originally, the shops in the market would pay three to five spirit stones per month for a small helper in the early stage of Qi Refining.

Now, they can be hired for one spirit stone.

There is basically no combat power requirement for being a helper in the market. In fact, it doesn’t matter what kind of spiritual root you have, as long as you have some mana.

In the past, a large number of true spiritual root Qi Refining cultivators who worked in the market either accepted a greatly reduced salary or simply left in the face of this situation.

Han Yu, who had the help of the mysterious small bottle and could eat thousand-year-old spiritual herbs as food, didn’t care, but other ordinary Qi Refining cultivators who had no plug-ins or backgrounds had a hard time.

The production skills of talismans, formations, pills, and planting, which made the most money in spiritual stones in the world of cultivation, could not be taught in training classes, and could not afford to teach them.

For example, formation masters require very high talent, and it takes time and energy, which affects cultivation. Cultivators with average comprehension can't learn it at all.

Alchemists and talisman masters are both big spenders on spiritual stones. They need a lot of practice to accumulate experience, and they lose a lot in the early stage.

As for spiritual farmers who cultivate spiritual plants, if they want to learn, they must first have spiritual fields that can grow spiritual plants in batches...

Low-level bachelors and casual cultivators who have nothing, except selling some labor as ordinary helpers or as thugs, rarely have other ways to earn spiritual stones.

"Maybe this is the world that Mo Tianxie wants." Bai Mo replied on behalf of Han Yu.

"Godfather..."

Mo Fengwu wanted to refute how Mo Tianxie could think like this, but then he recalled the other party's heroic character and was really a little unsure for a while, so he swallowed his words back.

As long as he has the opportunity to climb up, he won't care about the life and death of others, especially Mo Tianxie who is very ambitious and sure that he can make a name for himself.

The most fearful thing is that from the beginning, there is no spiritual root that can climb up, and only end up depressed.

Chaos is a ladder for him.

...

Including Han Yu himself, in fact, no one likes the pseudo-spiritual root cultivators who practice the Yin-Yang Five Elements Formula to enter the Tao. After all, the killing and robbing of treasures against Qi Refining cultivators are most likely done by these guys.

Groups of "Yin-Yang Thieves" plunder everything like locusts.

Ordinary cultivators may have some face and will not rob the mortals of the melons and dates, but they do not think they are noble. It is common for dozens or hundreds of cultivators to form a group to rob the silver in the secular world.

This forces even those who originally do not want to sacrifice their lifespans for blood sacrifices to learn spells to join the arms race in order to avoid being robbed.

It is unclear whether Mu Ziqing has calculated human nature in this.

After all, she discovered very early that spreading fear and anxiety is the most cost-effective method compared to directly giving silver to attract people. Sometimes she still regretted why she didn't think of this trick at the beginning, and burned millions of spirit stones in vain, which were all the savings of the Yin-Yang Sect!

"Go back to Tai'an now, and you can also return to your original life."

"They can return to their original lives by returning to the docks and the fields."

"I can't go back. I can't accept living my life like a mortal."

Mo Fengwu imagined the scene of her bloody hands going back to play the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and immediately rejected this option.

After traveling for nearly ten years, she was actively and passively involved in many murders and treasures.

Killing and arson gold belt.

As long as you can survive, the income is indeed much higher than normal work.

Normally, working as a helper in the market, you can only earn two or three hundred spirit stones in twenty years. With the garbage qualifications of pseudo-spiritual roots, relying on these resources, you can only cultivate to the fourth or fifth level of Qi Refining at best.

But what's the use of this?

Who doesn't have a foundation-building dream for Qi Refining cultivators who have stepped into the world of immortal cultivation?

Once you have seen the sea, you will never be satisfied with the water.

"It is obvious that with the strength of a cultivator in the Qi Refining Stage, it would be very easy to give up cultivation and return to the original life, and work as a porter or a farmer with mortals, but I just don't want to go back."

The physical strength of a cultivator in the Qi Refining Stage is far superior to that of ordinary people, and it is common for them to lift hundreds of pounds.

For people like Master Jin Guang and Master Shui Jing, if they go back to their old jobs and carry heavy bags at the dock, it would be easy, and they can earn a few wages.

Not to mention carrying heavy bags, even with the physical strength of a cultivator, going to farm is much better than a plowing ox.

"After seeing everything in the world of immortal cultivation, who is willing to go back and mingle with mortals?" Mo Fengwu asked back.

After they have a higher vision, what is the difference between asking them to go back and associate with the ignorant mortals and pretending to be mentally retarded and foolish?

Moreover, there are not many ignorant mortals now. The Yin-Yang Five Elements Art is sweeping the world. If you don't want to be bullied, you have to be forced to practice.

Except for those who have lost their way, who is willing to stop practicing and go back to be a farmer?

"If the spiritual stones of Nan Yazhou are only enough to support tens of millions of cultivators and turn into gods, and there are hundreds of millions of cultivators in the world, everyone wants to build a foundation, cast a golden elixir, condense an infant, and turn into a god..."

"Who wouldn't suffer?"

"Are we mortals without spiritual roots really unworthy of cultivating immortals?!"

Over the years, she has also come into contact with some "old" cultivators who entered the world of immortal cultivation before the appearance of the Yin-Yang Five Elements Art. They generally hold great hostility towards the "new" Yin-Yang cultivators.

Before the appearance of pseudo-spiritual root cultivators, even the poorest casual cultivators would not fight to the death for dozens of spirit stones, but now it is commonplace.

After the explosion of the number of low-level cultivators, a Qi-refining cultivator can only earn one spirit stone a month working in the market, which is only a quarter of the previous income.

Dozens of spirit stones are equivalent to several years of normal income, which is worth killing people to rob treasures.

Especially for pseudo-spiritual root cultivators, they have sacrificed their lives with blood, and their time is even more limited.
