Chapter 1490 - 1491: What are Heaven and Earth
"Human Clan?"
"Do you know how many Immortal Kings from the mere ten thousand year-old Human Clan have carved out their domains in the Immortal World?"
Su Chengyu squinted his eyes without contradicting, and asked coldly, "Even so, what’s wrong with that?"
"A man is not guilty; he is guilty because he owns a treasure."
"You think the Human Clan is weak, merely because most of the humans you see today cannot practice cultivation, and those few practitioners who try to ascend are incredibly rare. But Su Chengyu, do you know how many times the Spiritual Energy of this universe has been diminished by several Great Emperors together?"
Su Chengyu fell silent, while Ao Tian on the side knew about this and quietly said, "When Empress Nuwa entered this world, it was weakened once to increase the difficulties of her proving Dao. After the war of revival, dozens of Martial Gods from the Human Clan crossed Heaven’s Gate, and it was weakened again, to restrict the development of the Human Clan. In the Remote Ancient Era, when dynasties stood everywhere, it was weakened once more. At that time, the Spiritual Energy was only a tenth of what it had been, and then after that came the Age of Dharma Decline, which you are familiar with."
After the beginning of the Age of Dharma Decline, the Spiritual Energy between heaven and earth was so thin that ordinary people could no longer perceive it.
For ordinary people seeking to practice cultivation, it was almost an impossibility, and even if there were great opportunities around, they would likely miss them.
The only ones who could continue their cultivation were a few secluded major families, the Four major Taoist sects, and a few quiet Buddhist places.
"With that, are those people still not satisfied?"
Su Chengyu retorted.
