From the power of space to the heavens 2

Chapter 1266. Information Gap

"If that's the case, I'm afraid I've become an antique."

"These people behind you."

"Including most of your clan's ancestors."

"I'm afraid none of them have lived as long as I have."

"Put it another way."

"In the earliest era when I appeared so far, they were just young boys. Although I was not that strong at that time and was only an Earth Supreme, in terms of seniority, I was still not inferior."

Lu Yuan spread his hands casually and made a joke.

Actually, it’s not a joke.

After all, dating back to ancient times.

Hundreds of thousands of years ago.

When the myriad creatures of the Great Thousand World went to war with the evil gods from outside the domain.

He is both a planner and a bystander.

Appeared in that era.

And to those who witnessed that era.

Except for the founding ancestor of the ancient Futu clan and the Heavenly Supremes of the ancient Futu clan at that time, the rest were automatically one generation lower than him in seniority. It can even be said that even the ancestor who founded the ancient Futu clan did not dare to be negligent when seeing him. After all, seniority and status in the universe are relatively linked, and all of this is linked to strength. The fact that he was able to leave safely from the hands of the Nine Tribulations War Emperor was witnessed and acknowledged by Luo Shen as a bystander. It was normal for the Futu ancestor, who was only a Heavenly Supreme of the Immortal Grade at that time, to treat him with courtesy.

But he doesn't care about these.

Because after all, he is just a passer-by.

Even if he left traces of himself at that time, it does not mean that he truly existed in that era and belonged to that era.

What's more, there is no point in worrying about these things.

What can you do when you are young?

So what if I get old?

Who defines the boundary between young and old?

For example, how many decades are considered old?

For ordinary people, people are considered old after the age of fifty, because most ordinary people die before they reach the age of one hundred. For them, fifty years old is definitely half or more of their life, and they cannot deny that their health is declining.

As for practitioners.

For practitioners in the Rongtian realm, they may not be considered to be on the decline until they are over 150 years old. To really feel the word old, they may have to wait until they are over 200 years old, because most practitioners in the Rongtian realm can live to 300 years old. Practitioners with hidden injuries or who have used forbidden techniques that burn their lifespan are discussed separately here. In short, after 200 years old, the body's functions decline, and although it is not impossible to make a breakthrough, the success rate is too low. Instead of working hard until death and running around for the next 500 years of lifespan, it is better to live the next 100 years well and live a quality life. This idea has naturally become a point advocated by most practitioners and is very popular in the cultivation world.

To put it bluntly.

This can be seen as Liu Bang's open-mindedness before his death.

Although this goes against the nature of living things.

Because the nature of living things is that the longer they live, the more they fear death.

After all, the longer you live, the longer your life will be and the more beautiful things you can enjoy. Although life is not always smooth and there are unpleasant things, relatively speaking, a life with flesh and blood is more worth savoring than lying in a cold cemetery waiting for the soul to die. This torturous feeling is more worth savoring.

Therefore, the longer you live, the more afraid you are of death.

This principle can also be applied in daily life.

This is why many young people often fight, but when they reach middle age, although they are more fully developed, for example in terms of endurance and weight, not many middle-aged people fight. Most of them are just verbal disputes, and rarely involve physical violence or bloodshed.

Ultimately, it comes down to middle age.

Most people have new bonds.

There is more to consider.

For example, a middle-aged man with a wife must consider his wife's feelings before taking action. If he were a young man, he would just take action. The worst that could happen is that he would be arrested. It was just a normal fight and no weapons were involved. Even if he was beaten to a bloody mess, he would only be sent to the hospital. The hospital should be the one who should be worried, not you or your opponent. But after getting married, the thought of taking action might make your wife worry and waste unnecessary energy. If you win the fight, your wife will definitely come to rescue you. If you lose, it won't be as simple as rescuing you. She may come to see you crying, but you can't say anything harsh because you know very well that your wife is crying because she is worried about you. Under these restrictions, naturally, there will be fewer cases of physical violence.

What's more, some middle-aged men have more than one wife.

There will be children.

It’s easier to go by yourself.

But leaving behind orphans and widows.

How are these two mothers supposed to survive?

Although, it won’t lead to death.

But life will obviously be more difficult.

Therefore, the longer you live, the more open-minded you will be.

This has nothing to do with life span.

It’s about the state of mind.

As for saying that this is a contradiction, on the one hand, it is said that the longer you live, the more afraid of death you are. Taking these Rongtian realm practitioners who are about 300 years old as an example, they should be quite afraid of death. Why can such fearless remarks be so popular in the world and even be agreed upon by the majority? This cannot but mention the difficulty of cultivation.

Cultivation is similar to doing math problems.

If you don’t know how to answer other questions, you can really just write them randomly.

Even if it's fabricated.

Even if it's gibberish.

At least the question won't be left blank.

But things like math problems.

I can't do it, and I can only write one solution for the character.

The problem is that sometimes, writing a solution to a character does give you points, but sometimes, writing a solution to a character does not give you any points at all.

So, let’s put this logic back in place.

Cultivation is not something you can achieve breakthroughs just because you want to.

Everyone's qualifications have an upper limit.

Although the upper limit of the human race is not as rigid as that of the orcs.

insurmountable.

But a considerable part of the human race's upper limit depends on acquired training.

Here you can refer to the Supreme Dharmakaya in the Supreme Realm.

If the quality of the Supreme Dharmakaya is average.

It is difficult to even look forward to the Supreme Being.

Let alone the Supreme Lord of Heaven.

But if the quality of the Supreme Dharmakaya is very good, even if it is the original Supreme Dharmakaya, as long as you can get started, you are guaranteed to become the Heavenly Supreme in the future. After all, the quality of the Supreme Dharmakaya is there, and it brings to the practitioners not only combat strength, but also extremely high basic values ​​and the success rate of the next threshold.

Let me explain it in gaming terms.

Breakthrough from the Supreme Realm to the Earth Supreme Realm.

Theoretically, practitioners are required to achieve a comprehensive score of 100 in physical fitness and soul strength. After a successful breakthrough, the multiplier is calculated at ten times, which means it can reach more than one thousand.

But this number did not reach one hundred.

Is it possible to break through?

Of course you can!

But the missing values ​​must be made up from the success probability and the multiplier.

When both values ​​do not reach one hundred.

But it reaches ninety.

The success rate of breakthrough will drop to 70 percent.

When the two values ​​do not reach one hundred, but eighty.

The success rate of breakthrough will drop to 50 percent.

Going further down, when the two values ​​are only seventy, the success rate of the breakthrough will not only fall below fifty percent, but will also affect the strength bonus after the breakthrough. It may no longer be a tenfold increase, but a ninefold increase. Even if it succeeds, it will not be as strong as those who break through normally, and will continue to lose future potential.

But if both values ​​exceed one hundred.

The success rate will not continue to rise.

After all, the 100% success rate has reached its limit.

There is no chance of any more accidents.

The overall situation is like the principle that water will overflow when it is full.

But the ratio will be further increased.

In this way, some people have a basic value of 70 plus a breakthrough multiplier of 9 times, and after becoming the Earth Supreme, they have a combat power of 630 points. However, some people have a basic value of 100 plus a breakthrough multiplier of 10 times, and after becoming the Earth Supreme, they have a combat power of 1,000 points. And some people have a basic value of 150 plus a breakthrough multiplier of 15 times, and after becoming the Earth Supreme, they have a combat power of 2,250 points. The latter's values ​​are more than three times that of the former, and this is the core of the problem.

And if it breaks through further.

Assume the value is ten thousand.

Suppose three parties get an opportunity at the same time.

They can all increase strength fivefold.

The last one has the strength to rely on this wave of opportunities to break through the 10,000 mark and get in touch with the scenery of the next realm. It is just a matter of whether he wants to break through. After all, if he is not in a hurry to break through, he can continue to accumulate in the current realm, because the later the breakthrough, the higher the multiplier will be.

Temporary patience is for better take-off.

There is no doubt about this.

Therefore, it is not that these practitioners do not want to practice seclusion.

I don't want to seek higher realms.

Seek longer life.

Rather, pursuing these things requires capital.

In this era when most practitioners are independent practitioners.

Without the guidance of seniors.

Also in the absence of sufficient resources.

The vast majority of practitioners have taken the wrong path during the course of their cultivation. It’s just that these paths vary in size. Taking the wrong path may lead to lifelong regret, while taking the wrong path may not have much impact.

therefore.

For these practitioners whose future is hopeless.

It’s not that they don’t want to.

But they can't.

The so-called open-mindedness is merely one of the powerless coping methods in the face of such reality. To put it bluntly, since we have no ability to change the world, nor the ability to change others, we have to change ourselves. Should we live the last hundred years happily, or struggle for the last hundred years with a sad face? Although everyone has their own choices, and there are many who choose the latter, the answer that most people agree on is still the former.

Because it is better than struggling without seeing the future.

That feeling of despair.

Lying flat is more suitable for most people.

This is also the reason why practitioners in the universe do not attach importance to their state of mind.

If you pay attention to your state of mind.

Everyone can find his or her own way.

But the price is wasted time.

After all, not everyone can recognize their own heart. How many people cannot see themselves clearly until the moment of death. Not everyone is a genius with extraordinary understanding, and extraordinary understanding cannot explain everything.

So, compared to looking at it in a positive way.

Lying down without the strength to struggle.

It is more suitable to describe this mentality.

As for the practitioners in the supreme realm.

ten years?

century?

It's just a snap of the fingers!

For the Supreme Lord of Heaven whose lifespan is millions of years.

Even if it's hundreds of thousands of years.

In their eyes, it is just a decade or eight years in the eyes of ordinary people, and it is not the whole of their lives. As long as they can meet the right person, it is not understandable that they will fall in love. Although the age gap is indeed large and when one became famous, the ancestors of the other might not even be born yet, it is undeniable that love does have this magical power to overcome all obstacles, even time and the power of fate.

So, let’s talk about it for now.

What Lu Yuan said was not really a lie.

Hundreds of thousands of years ago.

This was the era when the Buddha Patriarch was still the supreme immortal.

Although the ancient Futu tribe was already very strong at that time.

But in comparison, it was still not strong enough, at least not as strong as the major first-rate ancient clans in the universe at that time. It was a second-rate force at most. After all, the Futu ancient clan at that time did not have the Saint-Quality Heavenly Supreme to sit in charge. In terms of size, it was about the same as today's Fire Spirit Clan.

And Lu Yuan had already become famous at that time.

If it really breaks out.

The Buddha Patriarch will surely be killed by him.

Although Lu Yuan was concerned about history and feared that the Buddha Patriarch would be killed, so that Qing Yanjing could not be born, even though the Buddha Patriarch at that time had sons and daughters, and even great-grandsons had started to get married and have children, this did not affect the possibility that the death of the Buddha Patriarch might cause some unexpected changes in history.

This is also the reason why Lu Yuan did not touch the ancient Futu clan.

As for the Maha ancient tribe.

There are other ancient tribes.

Including other forces.

The same reason applies to Lu Yuan not moving.

However, to the three Heavenly Supreme Elders of the Ancient Futu Clan behind Qing Yanjing, these words sounded like obvious bragging. Although they acknowledged that Lu Yuan was of a high generation, because Lu Yuan had visited the Ancient Futu Clan hundreds of years ago when the Nine Star Fox Clan occupied the Crimson Continent, although they did not accompany him back then, they had seen Lu Yuan himself and were very clear about Lu Yuan's appearance and temperament, including his strength. Therefore, some facts must be acknowledged, but let's not consider the issue of Lu Yuan's strength progress. Hundreds of years have passed, why is he still a small Earth Supreme? According to Lu Yuan's momentum back then, he should have become a Heavenly Supreme at least. But let's not consider these irrelevant issues, just say that Lu Yuan's remarks just now were a bit too arrogant. He actually dared to say that they would not live as long as him.

Although from the current timeline.

There is nothing wrong with this statement.

Even though they don't want to admit it.

But they had to admit it.

Lu Yuan will definitely become the Supreme Lord of Heaven in the future.

And Lu Yuan is younger than them.

At least tens of thousands of years younger,

Therefore, without considering any accidents, they would have died tens of thousands of years earlier than Lu Yuan. However, from Lu Yuan's tone, that was not what he meant at all. What he meant was that they were born later, and even their ancestors were just children in front of him.

to be frank.

The three elders really hoped that they had misunderstood.

But it turns out that they understood it correctly.

Although for Lu Yuan.

It's just the truth.

He wasn't exaggerating at all.
