Am I the only one who didn't ascend?

Chapter 240 Story Meeting 2
"Choose Transformation God because there are actually not many better choices on the left side of the sky. At the end of the old immortal calendar, at the peak of the Immortal Way, the Mahayana True Monarch only had dozens of people combined, about two or three hundred, and there were more Transformation Gods, but never more than two Thousands...and to this day, Tianzhizuo has actually not surpassed the peak glory of the old immortal calendar. Although I don't remember the specific number of people in each realm, the monks at the level of gods are basically the overlords of Tianzhizuo. People further up are not so easy to find.”

Wang Luo muttered: "It's very reasonable."

The puppet master added: "Of course, given the importance Tian Zhizuo attaches to the west expansion of Rong City, it would not be surprising even if a strong man from the combined realm is sent to take the lead in invading the barrier, but it is a pity that this is impossible. To do so. To escape the Great Barrier, you must have the special physique of one out of a thousand, and since you have to choose one out of a thousand, you are destined to only choose from the transformed gods."

Wang Luo couldn't help but smile: "So, you two are rarer than the Mahayana True Monarch."

The puppet master said: "Actually, what we can't do may not be possible for the Mahayana True Monarch. What's more, even if there is a Mahayana True Monarch with a suitable physique, it will not help, because when he steps into the barrier , will be forcibly suppressed to the state of transformation into gods. For those who have cultivated to the state of perfection, being forcibly suppressed and losing more than [-]% of their strength is a life worse than death."

Wang Luo frowned when he heard this: "Forcibly suppressed to the point of becoming a god... The great law's suppression of the realm of cultivators should only apply to our own people, why are you also suppressed?"

The puppet master said: "Strictly speaking, realm suppression applies to everyone, all creatures, and even most of the magic weapons refined in the wilderness. The only exceptions are magic weapons, ingenuity, formations, etc. produced in the territory of the Immortal Alliance. As for why this The threshold is the transformation of gods, not the Nascent Soul that you explicitly stipulated. As far as I'm concerned, this limit is based on the strength of the strongest person in the great barrier."

Wang Luo was immediately stunned and asked: "Is this happening!?"

The puppet master said: "At least in my opinion, this is the only reasonable explanation. Before entering the country, I was at the late stage of divine transformation, but after I stepped into the barrier, I was immediately pushed to the middle stage of divine transformation... and this is exactly what happened. Our estimate level for Lu Youyou.”

Wang Luo asked again: "What about 500 years ago, before Lu Zhiyao went into seclusion?"

The puppet master replied: "I'm not sure, because I don't remember the relevant information at all, and it's hard to even calculate. Intuitively speaking, she should be very strong, right? If she doesn't go into seclusion, maybe you guys will really have to face the integration period. There are even more powerful intruders, although in my opinion that is of no use. In a head-on confrontation, the Rongcheng garrison alone is enough to suppress the Mahayana, but it is necessary to operate in secret, under the supervision of the Great Law, to unite the Mahayana On the contrary, it is better to be hidden than to become a god."

"Indeed, just the two of you transformed into gods and allowed the confident Rong City to break through its defenses. Whether it was the fortress of the Star Destroyer or the Great Law of Heaven, at this critical moment, it was not as good as the visiting Mr. Mo Lin. The general is useful...but does this also mean that apart from this kind of conspiracy and infiltration, you actually don't have many options on the frontal battlefield?"

The puppet master smiled: "Good question, but it's a question I can't answer. But as far as my personal guess is concerned, you are right. In the past 1000 or two hundred years, no matter how many excuses and reasons we find, we will always be beaten by you again and again. They were forced to abandon a large amount of land in their hands. Although these failures were just fun for those who were cultivating and pioneering in the boundless territory and the ruins of the evil land, there were also many people living in the wasteland who were not happy. from."

Wang Luo added: "One thousand two hundred years ago, the Immortal Alliance was first formed, and one thousand two hundred years later, the strength of the Immortal Alliance has become more than ten times stronger. I wonder if your side is ten times stronger?"

The puppet master laughed again: "This is another question that cannot be answered, but based on my personal guess, it should not be possible."

Wang Luo then asked the most important question: "Since you are obviously not as promising as the Immortal Alliance, why do you think you can win over me?" The puppet master then suppressed his smile and responded in a solemn tone: "The future of the Immortal Alliance is , does not equal your future. What can you get in the Immortal Alliance? Wealth, power? For those born in the Immortal Alliance in later generations, these may be good enough, but for those who have seen the heyday of the Immortal Dao, this world Is the sky in the middle stage of God too shallow? Or do you think today’s Immortal Alliance will tolerate you, an ancient monk, practicing all the way to Mahayana and becoming an outlier living in an egalitarian society?”

Wang Luo only asked one question: "Then what can I get in the wasteland?"

"Freedom." The puppet master said, "The freedom to unleash your talents. For most people in the Immortal Alliance, the term "Man in the Cocoon" is actually inaccurate, because in the wasteland, these people don't even have the appearance of anything. Even if you have no cultivation level. But for those who are truly qualified, all the rules of the Immortal League are obvious constraints. Wang Luo, do you really think that cutting vegetables and cooking for others in the slums is very difficult? Are you happy?"

"Haha, soul torture, are you really not Type [-]?"

The puppet master also smiled when he heard this, but his laughter was slightly breathless and tired.

But he quickly calmed down the strangeness in his tone and said seriously: "Besides, liberating yourself and returning to the left side of the sky will not isolate you from the world on the right side of the sky. You can have two worlds at the same time. ! On the contrary, if you stay in the cocoon voluntarily, you are destined to have difficulty seeing the scenery outside the cocoon."

Wang Luo commented: "It's too abstract. Be more specific."

"To be specific... take my comrade as an example. If you have heard her honest story about Yan Fuxue and Han Wu, then you should find that there is actually a serious flaw in her story: First of all, she She said that she was forcibly transformed through a ritual and broke out of her cocoon. For this reason, she lost a considerable part of her memory. It took a long time to smoothly integrate back into her original life. But at the same time, she also said that she came from the wilderness and had hundreds of years of experience. Cultivation has reached the middle stage of spiritual transformation."

Wang Luo nodded: "I thought she didn't tell the truth."

"No, she did not lie on this issue, and she cannot lie. Secret techniques require a price, even Mahayana monks are no exception. So the correct answer is that the cocoon-breakers, or desolate demons, who are forcibly transformed by secret techniques are only transformed by superiors. Materials at your disposal. Mu Yuqing does have her own independent personality. Her starting point is even higher than many experienced cocoon breakers. But this kind of cocoon breakers always have their own limitations. When necessary, her personality can be used at any time. It will all be extracted, used, and even covered.”

Wang Luo asked: "By you, the real ones?"

"Yes. And you can become a ruler just like us, or even more powerful than us! You can freely choose the life you want among the billions of creatures in the Immortal Alliance. You can watch, you can participate, and you can even take its place. . Cultivation on the left side of the sky, civilization on the right side of the sky, you can have both!"
