Chapter 274: Jiangnan · Missing
The apocalypse is the end of the world for humanity, but cruelly speaking, it is a good thing for the entire world. After death, the essence of a person's spirit becomes spiritual energy, and the source transforms into elemental power, feeding back the earth and gradually reviving the dying planet.
These days, Lin Keqing analyzed Lin Shi and discovered a phenomenon. The era of abundant resources in the cultivation world was before the Qin Dynasty and reached its peak during the Tang Dynasty, but began to decline sharply after the Tang Dynasty. Until the Ming and Qing dynasties, it began to enter the era of the end of the law.
The rapid development of modern industry not only pollutes the natural environment of the secular world, but also affects the cultivation of the true world. Not only is the natural environment destroyed, but also because cultivators have to leave the mortal world and it is difficult to conceive offspring, they need to seek fresh blood in the secular world to inherit traditions. However, children born in the end of the law era have far less qualifications than before. If this continues to deteriorate, the inheritance of cultivation may also be cut off.
The apocalypse is the rebirth of the cultivation and inheritance, the bottoming out rebound of the depletion of the Earth's origin. If it cannot be revived, those who wait for the Earth will fall like shooting stars.
So, Lin Keqing compared Lin history with secular history and discovered a pattern that the sharp decline in the resources of the cultivation world is related to the rapid increase in human population. The more mortals there are, the more scarce the cultivation resources become.
This resource refers to spiritual energy, as well as natural material resources. For example, excessive exploitation of jade and iron mines by humans can cause damage to spiritual and dragon veins, and industrial pollution can cause natural treasures to lose their spiritual energy or even die. All kinds of mistakes cannot be tolerated by cultivators.
But with the end of the world, the number of mortals has sharply decreased, and the Earth and the cultivation world are like people on the brink of starvation suddenly seeing the entire Han Dynasty, gradually recovering their vitality. Ordinary people find the decaying corpses and wandering zombies disgusting and terrifying, but for the cultivation world, they are like natural manure rotting in their own fields.
This is also the reason why cultivators begin to enter the secular world, competing with the earth for the power of the origin.
The Lin family prospered before the Tang Dynasty and declined after it. In the generation of Lin Shaotang, not only did they pass down their lineage, but also due to a lack of resources, they could not even open the Immortal Pagoda. Their cultivation relied entirely on their own wisdom and efforts. In such a difficult situation, they did not forget the hatred of their family, nor did they forget their responsibilities. They left the best to Lin Keqing.
