Am I the only one who didn't ascend?

Chapter 8 To save society
The existence of the Great Law changed the entire world.

It is a pity that Shi Yue's teaching materials are only for the enlightenment of young children. They do not explain the great laws in depth. They only use some simple examples to teach children to abide by the laws... Of course, even so, this limited text description Wang Luo was still amazed.

Unexpectedly, the way of heaven seems to be a serious duty and is unattainable.After encountering the crisis of turning into a famine, he still inevitably fell into obedience at the hands of his senior sister.

The way of heaven that can be used by humans is unimaginable to a practitioner who lived in the old immortal calendar era.

Of course, the new world we saw before us was beyond imagination.

For example, Netherworld Road, which operates enthusiastically...

Through the ghost fog window, a broader and magnificent scene gradually appeared before Wang Luo's eyes.

"There are a lot of cars on this road."

While he was talking, a shuttle-shaped speed car with its whole body shining with platinum luster passed by the bone car, leaving a gorgeous trajectory like lightning.

Shi Yue only glanced at it and let out a sigh of poverty, and then while flipping through a small red notebook in his hand, irritated by the increasing financial deficit, he casually explained: "The black silk road belongs to Rongcheng. One of the seventeen main roads, although the part near Lingshan is a bit desolate, once you get to the city, the traffic is still very dense, and occasionally there will be a big jam if you are unlucky."

Wang Luo nodded when he heard this, looked at the traffic passing by outside the window, and sighed: "These cars are of high quality."

"By the standards of the classical era, modern vehicles are basically considered genuine magic weapons. The quality of the individual products may not be enough for you, a classical elite, but the quantity..."

"Well, the number is really amazing." In the moment he spoke, Wang Luo had already counted more than a thousand magic weapon-level vehicles in his field of vision.

The quality of a single product is indeed not high, but when thousands of low-quality products are added together, the power is very impressive.And the focus is not on the power of these magic weapons, but on the resources and production capacity represented by these thousands of transportation magic weapons.

In the classical era, even if you were as wealthy as a spiritual mountain, you would not be able to just come up with so many magic weapons for transportation.Being able to create an immortal treasure does not mean that you can create [-] common people's magic weapons.

What's more, magic weapons need an owner. Even if thousands of magic weapons can be made, how can one easily find thousands of practitioners who know how to use magic weapons?
But these problems seem to be no longer a problem in the new era.

As far as Wang Luo could see, almost every car contained a "cultivation person" who could drive skillfully!
Their cultivation may not be high, but their realms are stable and their foundations are solid. Their foundations are also at the level of foundation building, and many of them are at the Golden Core realm!

There are thousands of foundation-building elixirs. In the classical era, only top large-scale sects could piece together this... This was just the result of Wang Luo's casual glance on the main road on the outskirts of Rong City.

And these thousands of foundation-building pills are all extremely young!

Shi Yue explained: "Under the protection of the Great Law, practitioners in the new era practice much faster than in the old days. In fact, it is not uncommon to see 20-year-old golden elixirs..."

Wang Luo couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

At that time, when he was in his early twenties, he challenged the Wanmiao Golden Pill, which was an achievement that can be said to shock the past and the present.The average cultivator can condense elixirs within five to sixty years. Even if it is just a low-grade scattered elixir, it is considered a gift.Most practitioners finally obtain the elixir when they are nearly a hundred years old, and then they have to strive to make further progress in the next few decades, otherwise they will run out of life.

Unexpectedly, in the new era, the immortal way has developed to such a state! ?
"However, it's a bit strange." Wang Luo observed it carefully, frowned and asked, "With so many foundation-building elixirs, why is there not even a single Nascent Soul elixir, let alone a fusion of gods?"

Shi Yue said: "Oh, this part of the content is not written in the general textbook. Maybe it is because I feel that it should not break the enthusiasm of children to strive for progress. According to the Great Law, the upper limit of cultivation in the new era is only up to Nascent Soul. .”

Wang Luo showed unprecedented surprise: "The limit is up to Nascent Soul!?"

Shi Yue said: "In fact, Nascent Soul is only a privilege for a very small number of people. The vast majority of people reach the Golden Elixir. From condensing the elixir in their 20s to dying before they are more than a hundred years old, they can only slowly polish it in the past hundred years. Golden elixir, and then watch it gradually decline, and eventually the elixir is scattered and people die. If you want to be promoted to Nascent Soul and extend your life for another hundred years, you must obtain state approval."

Wang Luo was confused: "Why?"

"Because excessive pursuit of individual power will repeat the mistakes of the old immortal calendar." Shi Yue said, "This world no longer needs immortals, and we really don't want to be hit by the immortal world again."

"Even so, it would be overkill to limit individual power to the Nascent Soul."

Shi Yue said: "Isn't the Nascent Soul enough? Compared with ordinary people who have no cultivation, or beginners who have just introduced Qi into the body, the Nascent Soul is already comparable to a natural disaster. In a stable and highly organized society, , does not require such a strong individual. The collective power will be stronger than the immortals in the past."

Shi Yue's tone of voice seemed calm, but the confidence of the times revealed in his words made people moved.

Will the collective power be more powerful than the immortals?It's really hard for Wang Luo to agree with this kind of whimsy.Thousands of foundation-building elixirs are certainly spectacular, but they are definitely not enough to make up for the gap with true immortals.

Not to mention the genuine Celestial Immortal, even the Land Immortal at the pinnacle of Mahayana, there have been cases of killing an entire Immortal Cultivation Family by oneself.Hundreds of golden elixirs and more than a dozen Nascent Soul gods, driven by the power of the integration stage, formed an unprecedented family formation, but they still could not withstand the full blow of the Mahayana level.

Others may not understand this truth, so how could senior sister Lu Zhiyao not understand it?
But soon, Wang Luo's doubts gradually dissipated.

Because as the skeleton car officially drove into Rongcheng City, the most prosperous and gorgeous side of this new world finally appeared in front of him at close range.

What hits your face is the incredibly rich aura of heaven and earth, which is by no means inferior to any of the famous sects' cave heaven paradise in the past. In such an environment, even a mortal with mediocre qualifications can cultivate simple spiritual energy after decades of cultivation. The magical power of the immortal family.

And among the rich spiritual energy of heaven and earth, tall and shining buildings stand shoulder to shoulder on the ground, supporting a bright fairy light.

These buildings are made of inexplicable materials, with crystal and silky light flowing on their surfaces. Against the backdrop of the night, they look like pure, exquisite jade.Surrounded by jade stones, there is a towering ancient tree, its huge branches literally "towering into the clouds", as if connected to the sky.

Wang Luo has never seen such a grand scene, not even in the scrolls recording the appearance of the fairy world, not even the heaven created by the immortal ancestor with his sincerity...

At the same time, Shi Yue had closed his account and explained softly: "That is Jianmu, which carries the highest authority of the city. [Wish] Every city within the territory is gradually expanding with Jianmu as the center. .The buildings of Rongcheng are the oldest buildings of Zhuwang, which were the first stop for the reconstruction of Lingzhou after the catastrophe. At that time, Lord Zhiyao named the city Rongcheng, after the antlers of a young deer, which was full of vitality. meaning."

Wang Luo nodded slowly. This naming style did have a bit of Lu Zhiyao's flavor.

Although the scene in front of me is no longer a deer with antlers.Rongcheng, which has lasted for thousands of years, is like a sharp horn, and the jade-like buildings are like a forest of exquisite swords.But vaguely, Wang Luo seemed to be able to see that a thousand years ago, in a wasteland, a proud woman planted a young sapling, claiming that it would be the starting point of a new world.

The next moment, the light outside the window suddenly dimmed. It turned out that the skeleton car had left the black silk-like main road and turned into a dark path winding downwards.

In an instant, the magnificent city seemed to be isolated from another world.

Shi Yue said: "Ah, we are almost there."

The skeleton car stopped with a greasy sound of flesh and blood rubbing against the ground. A cold wind blew through the car, and a shrill female voice sounded out.

"We have arrived at Wanxinqiao, the terminal. Passengers please bring your organs with you. See you in the underworld..."

The corner of Shi Yue's mouth twitched for a while, and he resisted saying any words that were suspected of orthodox discrimination, and took Wang Luo out of the car.

After the two got out of the car, the will-o'-the-wisps around the skeleton car swayed for a while, as if they were tearing open the invisible door, and then the entire car gradually disappeared.

Before it disappeared completely, Wang Luo saw the skeleton pilot saluting him respectfully...

"How polite." Wang Luo praised.

"Indeed, I have never heard of Netherworld Dao being polite before. Maybe it's because the losses have been too serious recently." Shi Yue sighed, "I hope it doesn't really go bankrupt. Apart from it, it's hard to find anyone." Such a cheap and affordable bus.”

Wang Luo was a little curious: "It's not too far from Lingshan Mountain to here. With your footwork during the foundation building period, you can definitely go back and forth on foot."

Shi Yue sighed again: "It's possible, but it will consume more real energy, and the extra food expenses will be much more valuable than transportation expenses..."

Wang Luo couldn't help but be even more curious. The aura of heaven and earth in this Rong City was almost solid. What losses could not be made up for?In fact, during his journey, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth he absorbed at will has replenished the depleted Dantian Jade Mansion by one to two percent...

Doesn’t it mean that there is a charge for the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the new world?What an evil exploitative society this is! ?
On the other side, Shi Yue was already walking ahead, pointing to the end of the winding road ahead: "It's not far from Wanxin Bridge to my home. Well, as you can see, it's not a glamorous place."

Wang Luo looked around and saw that the muddy road under his feet was directly under a huge bridge. Looking up, the bridge looked like a terrifying spider, connecting countless buildings on the ground.The bridge is bustling with traffic and pedestrians, which is in perfect contrast with the bustling scene of Rong City... but in the bustling city, almost no pedestrians will look under the bridge.It's as if they are in completely different worlds.

The world under the bridge is full of low and messy houses, with half-sections of walls standing here and there. The walls are covered with graffiti, and weeds are overgrown between the bricks... It is indeed not glamorous.

After Wang Luo looked at it, he pondered for a moment and commented: "It is also a good thing. If a person with tens of millions of debts can still live in glory, this society will be hopeless."

Shi Yue said: "...It makes sense, I was wrong."
