Immortality, but people in primitive society

Chapter 412 What is the future of the 9 states?

"A few years ago, the world changed drastically, and the Nine Provinces were in chaos. Almost every city was attacked by the beast tide, triggering many wars..."

"Although the war was cruel, it also gave us the opportunity to start over. We put down the conflict and later reunited Kyushu..."

"Based on the Three Souls Theory you gave us earlier, as well as the Way of Immortality, we discovered a flaw in the Taichu Method and then had the new generation practice a new technique. We can basically confirm that the Way of Immortality is correct..."

"However, the longevity technique hasn't been widely promoted yet because we've discovered that spiritual energy has become more complex. Different people practicing the same technique gain completely different powers..."

"Also, in recent years, fierce beasts seem to be getting stronger. Many extremely powerful beasts have appeared... It should be said that they are no longer fierce beasts. They have brains just like us. The Taoist sect calls these fierce beasts demon beasts."

"The appearance of demonic beasts has continued to put pressure on our survival in Jiuzhou, and even brought about many new problems. The class divisions during the period of power transition, as well as the territorial disputes..."

Listening to Cang Shu and Ji Jun’s reports, Bai Tian felt a little dazed.

Unexpectedly, in just a few years, Kyushu has undergone earth-shaking changes, as if it has entered another era.

The emergence of the Way of Immortality signified the arrival of the era of true immortal cultivation. This was much earlier than Bai Tian had anticipated. Although the Way of Immortality had not yet been established, it was still much earlier than Bai Tian had anticipated.

Bai Tian expected that it would take two or three generations after Zhuanxu to develop the way to immortality.

However, Bai Tian could also understand that since Gonggong failed to transform himself into a Taoist at Mount Buzhou, the progress of the human world should have accelerated.

Flood, the passage between the human and spiritual worlds opens, and the reincarnation passage is constructed...

Without being there during the day, he couldn't understand how Jiuzhou had managed to survive all these years. But he could imagine it wasn't easy.

Of course, with the advent of a new era, new problems have gradually emerged.

In the past, it was an issue of cultivation and lifespan, and the root cause was actually to solve the problem of hunger; in the next stage, it will be to solve the problem of "eating too much".

According to Cang Shu and Ji Jun, those who practice the Way of Immortality can stop eating after reaching a certain level. Once the Way of Immortality is perfected, and everyone in Kyushu stops eating, the social structure will inevitably change.

By then, people would be even more difficult to control. Furthermore, as the Way of Immortality spread, the gap in strength would become increasingly pronounced, and the stratification of classes would become even more pronounced.

To be honest, Bai Tian really doesn't understand this kind of social structure, and he has never been willing to think about it.

He himself didn't know what the best society should be like in the era of cultivating immortals because he had no reference.

But he knew one thing: the pursuit of freedom and equality was an eternal topic for mankind...

Ji Jun said softly: "Haotian, actually we are a little bit lost in the direction now."

"Although Jiuzhou is not stable yet and still faces many problems, according to our vision, within a hundred years at most, Jiuzhou will surely achieve true unification."

"During this period, a nation will be built. After that, it seems that there is no direction to strive for."

Bai Tian sighed in a trance, "Actually, I've been thinking about this too."

After cultivating immortality, people's livelihood issues become more complex. Food, clothing, housing and transportation are no longer the main issues; the more critical issue is the level of thought. How to gather a group of people who pursue immortality without causing trouble is a question worth pondering.

Ji Jun said calmly, "Haotian, do you think that if we continue to develop the land, can we solve the problem?"

I had a slight headache during the day: "I'm not sure about this, I can only say it's possible."

"Ji Jun, you have to know that besides Kyushu, this world is very large and dangerous. Civilization is uneven, and many places may still be in primitive times."

"What's the reason for expanding territory? Resources or population? There's no reason. It's pure waste. Sooner or later, it will collapse."

"If you say it's for the sake of expanding civilization, it might last for a while, but what happens after that?"

Ji Jun was silent. In fact, it was not that he had not thought about these questions, but that he could not get the answers.

This is very sad. The future seems to be very bright, but there seems to be something missing in the beauty.

It's terrible when people lose their goals, and the same is true for countries...

Bai Tian continued, "Actually, I think you don't need to worry about this issue for now. A hundred years is a long time, and there will probably be a lot of changes in that time."

"Whether the human world will be stable in the future, I don't even dare to say. You can shorten your horizons a bit, perhaps set a small goal of fifty or twenty years."

Cang Shu took over the conversation: "I think so too. I think that in the short term, it would be good enough to govern Jiuzhou well and make everyone no longer afraid of death."

"There's still a lot of room for our civilization to be passed down. What the future holds will depend on how we manage Kyushu..."

Ji Jun remained silent, apparently he could see further ahead...

Cang Shu, Ji Jun and the others stayed for many days, and came here with the people they brought with them, telling Bai Tian about the situation in Jiuzhou.

Ten days later, Cang Shu and the others were leaving.

Before leaving, Ji Jun couldn't help but whisper, "Haotian, I've always had a question. Is there an end to cultivation?"

Bai Tian knew what he meant and smiled softly, "I can't give you an answer right now, but I dare say that your current cultivation is far from reaching the realm of touching the end."

"Ji Jun, I told you before that between the Yin and Yang worlds, you can actually broaden your horizons. Perhaps there are more worlds out there."

As for the issue of the Three Realms, Bai Tian had no way of determining how it would develop next, so he didn't dare to say anything too confident.

Ji Jun glanced at Bai Tian and nodded deeply, "I understand. Haotian, in recent years, your uncle has actually been weakening your position in the history books because he feels that we have been overly dependent on our ancestors..."

"He's right." Bai Tian interrupted him with a smile, "That's the right thing to do. If Jiuzhou wants to continue to develop steadily, there shouldn't be someone hanging high and mighty over it all the time."

Ji Jun's lips trembled, and he held back the words that were about to come out of his mouth. He just clasped his hands together, then turned and left.

Ji Jun actually felt that having someone hanging high up in the sky would actually help suppress the people below. But he also knew that this would also cause other problems, such as blindly following...

Watching Ji Jun and others leave, Bai Tian sighed heavily.

He could sense that the Kyushu Civilization had entered a new phase, but he wasn't sure how long this phase would last.

I have a feeling that Kyushu civilization is too advanced and may suffer a backlash...

Before he could think about it, Bai Tian's mind moved slightly, and a glint of light flashed across his eyes as he murmured, "Finally woke up..."
