Chapter 730 Mysterious Scripture
Shu Han shrunk the earth into an inch and escaped thousands of miles in one breath. He was afraid that Xuanwu would follow him and see his intention to go to Changyuan Sect, so he did not continue to move forward to Changyuan Sect. After circling outside the jurisdiction of Changyuan Sect for a few days, he felt relieved to continue to go to Changyuan Sect.
On the way, Shu Han thought about it in his heart and felt that something was a bit strange.
He heard that although the five great demon kings of Tianhuang were not harmonious with each other, they were dissatisfied with each other because of the position of the demon king, but they would not fight to the death.
On the contrary, they all had the ambition to defeat and subdue other demon kings, ascend the throne of the demon king, and unify all demons.
It is basically impossible for two demon kings to surround and kill another demon king.
From the tone of Jinwu and Xuanwu, they were ordered by the demon king to surround and kill Qilin, and they had been planning for a long time to force Qilin into a life-and-death dilemma. The same is true for the real dragon. The demon king also plans to get rid of it as soon as possible.
But why did the demon king do this?
To make Xuanwu and Jinwu bow down, his strength must be superior to that of the real dragon and Qilin. Why did they kill the True Dragon and Qilin?
A tenth-level True Blood Demon King is a force that cannot be underestimated no matter where he is. Could it be that the True Dragon and Qilin are too arrogant and would rather die than surrender, so the Demon King killed them?
That shouldn't be the case!
The winner is the king is the tradition of the Ten Thousand Demon Valley. Even if the True Dragon and Qilin would rather die than surrender, they have to bow their heads in front of strength and rules. Submission to the strong has been a tradition since ancient times for the human race, and it is even more so for the demon race. It is not shameful, so why should they resist stubbornly.
Shu Han touched his chin and thought: "It seems that there is another secret behind the five demon kings of the Tianhuang demon clan. What exactly caused the True Dragon and Qilin to break with the other demon kings? It is necessary to investigate it carefully."
With doubts, Shu Han flew into the area ruled by Changyuan Sect.
After going deep into this area, Shu Han suddenly had an illusion of returning to Dayun.
The area under the jurisdiction of Changyuan Sect is highly civilized. Large areas of barren mountains and wild land have been reclaimed. Places with weak spiritual energy are where mortals gather on a large scale, while places with rich spiritual energy set up sects to cultivate monks. With mortals as the foundation and sects as the pillars, the familiar cultivation system comes to the fore.
"Changyuan Sect still has some means. It can maintain such a large piece of pure land in the dangerous environment of Tianhuang where monsters are surrounded and the five great monster kings are eyeing it covetously. It seems that the strength of this sect is stronger than that of Tianque Sect!"
When Shu Han came to the jurisdiction of Changyuan Sect, he was not in a hurry to go to the sect of Changyuan Sect, but took time to observe slowly in this area.
He came to towns one by one with the spirit hidden and transformed into nothingness, and observed the life of mortals in this area like a wandering soul in the world. The situation in the past few days of observation surprised Shu Han. Because the jurisdiction of Changyuan Sect seems to be similar to Dayun, but the specific folk customs are very different from Dayun.
In this vast land, the dense population of mortals made Shu Han dumbfounded.
There are also small villages like Shuzhuang in the mountains, but there are very few of them, unlike Dayun where they are everywhere.
On the contrary, the towns with a large population stretch for nearly a hundred miles. Being in the town, Shu Han has the illusion of returning to Yingtian Realm. Of course, the population density here is still far from being comparable to Yingtian Realm.
Such a large population living in cities must be a huge problem.
Shu Han knows that with the ability of mortals, it is impossible to gather and live in such a large city.
Because a giant city of nearly a hundred miles can accommodate countless mortals.
Such a large number of mortals need a huge amount of drinking water and food every day, which cannot be guaranteed in time by relying on the limited labor of mortals. The waste generated by mortal life cannot be transported out in time. The giant mortal city is like a giant, consuming huge amounts of food every day, but can only eat with a small bowl.
Shu Han walked in such a huge city, but found that the mortals here lived and worked in peace and contentment, and the mortals in Dayun lived more easily. After an in-depth investigation, Shu Han discovered that the reason these mortals could live happily and contentedly was because of the help of the monks.
Each city has a large number of monks to maintain the daily operation of the city.
Most of them are monks in the foundation-building stage.
These monks use their magic power to attract water sources, so that all mortals do not have to worry about drinking water.
They use storage bags to pack food and distribute it to various food collection points of mortal city lords.
Even the fields outside the city are cultivated with the assistance of monks. They give the rice seeds improved by magic to mortals to cultivate, and often lead spiritual energy into the fields. With this improved rice seed and spiritual energy irrigation, the yield per acre of rice field is amazing, which is a thousand times that of ordinary rice fields, and the production is not affected by the weather. A piece of land can be cultivated and harvested ten times a year!
Not only that, the mortals here also use tamed low-level monsters as livestock and meat sources, which is amazingly luxurious for mortals!
Solving the problem of food and water sources, the diseases of mortals are also taken care of by monks.
There are an astonishing number of Changyuan Taoist temples scattered in each city. Each Taoist temple is guarded by a foundation-building cultivator. If the mortals in the area have diseases, they can come to this Taoist temple to find the Taoist priest for help.
Shu Han never expected that there is such a pure land in the cultivation world where cultivators treat mortals well.
Dayun is completely different from this place.
The attitude of the Dayun cultivation world towards the mortal world is that immortals and mortals are different, and mortals are allowed to reproduce on their own, and they will never waste energy to interfere. Changyuan Sect rests and recuperates with mortals in this way, which opened Shu Han's eyes.
The mortals here are extremely relaxed in their daily lives. After dealing with the few trivial matters in their daily lives, they will come to their Taoist temples to chant scriptures and pray for blessings. Their lives are stable and comfortable.
However, in this stability, Shu Han felt something was wrong!
It is a very simple logic. To maintain such a huge mortal city, more than a hundred foundation-building cultivators are busy and have almost no time to practice. After so many years of struggling in the cultivation world, Shu Han understands a truth, that is, cultivators have only one principle called "selfishness".
More than a hundred cultivators are needed to maintain a city. To help all mortals in the Changyuan Sect live and work in peace and contentment, at least tens of thousands of cultivators must be invested.
Spending a lot of spiritual energy and a lot of time to help mortals live and work in peace and contentment?
Such a good thing can only happen in mortals' dreams!
After seeing the appearance, Shu Han felt that the Changyuan Sect was not simple, and he began to think about the significance of Changyuan Sect's doing this.
Then, he turned his attention to the Changyuan Taoist temples.
Because of the busyness of the cultivators, mortals save a lot of labor time every day, and all the saved time is spent in these Changyuan Taoist temples. After observation, Shu Han found that these mortals only recited one kind of scripture every day, and the pronunciation of the scripture was strange and not normal.
This made Shu Han very curious. It was obvious that the unique social structure of Changyuan Sect had its roots in this scripture.
