Chapter 10 Youth Song 10
In the life when she became the Peach Blossom Fairy, Tang Yu was initially puzzled: how could someone who had become a deity still be scheming against each other?
Can't these people just lie down and enjoy the life of immortality? Even though they'll die eventually, wouldn't that mean living for tens of thousands of years? What's there to argue about?
But later, Tang Yu understood the reason for the struggle in the immortal realm.
Even immortals need spiritual energy to cultivate; without spiritual energy, immortals cannot survive for long.
The Celestial Realm is the place with the most abundant spiritual energy, and at that time, the Winged Continent of the Bird Clan also had a very abundant spiritual energy, making it one of the best fiefdoms.
Therefore, what immortals fight for is spiritual energy, which is equivalent to cultivation resources.
Such a wonderful place as Winged Continent naturally allows the bird race to continue to thrive, as there is enough spiritual energy to nurture the next generation of offspring.
However, spiritual energy has an upper limit; that is to say, it is not infinite.
Therefore, the total amount of spiritual energy in a world is fixed. When a deity dies, a new deity is born. The spiritual energy is simply being transferred.
In this world, whether it's humans or gods, when the resources that everyone craves cannot be supplied indefinitely, it's natural for intrigue and struggles for interests to arise!
After arriving in this world, Tang Yu sensed a great deal of spiritual energy in the mortal realm, so she always believed that this was a world where immortality could be cultivated.
However, the situation later turned out differently than she had guessed. In the human world, people mainly practiced martial arts. If they practiced to the extreme, they would be close to immortals, but they were still very different from gods!
Therefore, Tang Yu thought that the spiritual energy in the immortal realm was even more abundant.
Therefore, she didn't want to alert the enemy, since if we were to compare strength among the immortals, her strength wouldn't be considered top-tier.
She never expected that after arriving in this celestial realm that was almost shut down, she would feel such thin spiritual energy.
The spiritual energy in the human world is far greater than that in the heavens; this is simply abnormal!
What exactly is the Heavenly Dao doing?
The spiritual energy is getting thinner and thinner; is it going to trap and kill all the immortals in the celestial realm?
Tang Yu wandered around the Heavenly Realm and found that it had become so dull that the flowers, plants and trees no longer had any spiritual energy to bloom or bear fruit. The entire Heavenly Realm was desolate and lifeless...
The gods she occasionally encountered seemed lifeless and gloomy, and no one paid any attention to her presence.
They probably assumed she was just an ordinary immortal in the celestial realm, and no one was interested in paying attention to her.
However, some immortals were playing music and chess in secluded places, while others were meditating quietly. It was a strange immortal realm, with a kind of numb indifference!
After wandering around to many places, Tang Yu still couldn't figure out why the world was in chaos and upside down, when an immortal walked up to her!
"I sense Zhao Yuzhen's aura on you. Your fates are intertwined with his. Are you from the mortal realm? What do you intend to do?"
A young man blocked Tang Yu's way, and his words reminded Tang Yu of the rumors about Zhao Yuzhen when she was a child.
Legend has it that he was born amidst a radiant glow, possibly a reincarnation of an immortal, and it seems this is true!
"So you are Zhao Yuzhen's friend in the Heavenly Realm?"
Yes, I come from the human world.
I want to know why the celestial realm has become like this. Can this immortal tell me?
The person in front of him was quite surprised.
"You didn't come to the Heavenly Realm to kill the gods?"
"What grudge do I have against you? Why would I want to kill you? I was just too curious."
These words immediately made the other person laugh.
"My name is Liu Yun. Zhao Yuzhen was indeed my friend in the Heavenly Realm, but after he gave up his immortal lifespan and decided to reincarnate, my friend was completely dead."
"Immortals suffer so much; he would rather give up his long life. But looking at those numb and tormented immortals in the celestial realm, perhaps Zhao Yuzhen is truly happy."
This puzzled Tang Yu.
Of course, she could also see that something was wrong in the Heavenly Realm, but there had to be a reason why a group of gods were living such a miserable life.
Liu Yun smiled and then invited Tang Yu to sit down in his courtyard.
Then, he poured Tang Yu a glass of wine.
"This is my last jug of wine. There will be no more wine to drink in this celestial realm from now on..."
After saying this, Liu Yun explained the reason why the celestial realm had become like this.
Many years ago, the celestial realm was full of spiritual energy and bustling with activity. Meanwhile, countless cultivators in the mortal realm were working hard to cultivate and ascend to the celestial realm.
However, as more and more immortals ascended to heaven, the celestial realm became overcrowded.
Everyone noticed something was amiss with this strange occurrence, and some people no longer wanted to live in this crowded celestial realm, but instead wanted to go to the human world to live a carefree life.
Then, the four gates of the Heavenly Realm closed, and they were trapped inside and died. Subsequently, the spiritual energy within the Heavenly Realm became increasingly scarce.
All the immortals trapped in the celestial realm could only watch helplessly as they gradually walked towards death. They wanted to drink some wine, eat some delicious food, or taste some fresh fruit... but the celestial realm simply didn't offer any of that!
This is practically the same as being in jail!
As a result, several upheavals occurred among the celestial beings, some of which involved infighting and killing each other, resulting in the deaths of most of the immortals!
On one occasion, they finally united and opened the gates of the Heavenly Realm to return to the mortal world, only to find that powerful warriors from the mortal world had stormed in and attacked the Heavenly Realm.
Then, the celestial beings became numb.
Although a gate has been opened in the surrounding four regions, there are powerful figures stationed in the human world. Anyone who goes down there will die!
If you want to leave this place, just end your own life like Zhao Yuzhen.
However, most immortals in the celestial realm cannot do that. They devoted all their efforts to cultivating and becoming immortals. If they were to give up their lives and be reborn as humans, wouldn't all their previous efforts be in vain?
Therefore, some people still try to descend to the mortal realm from all directions, unwilling to give up the immortal power they have painstakingly cultivated.
But over the years, no one has successfully descended to the mortal realm, so the people of the heavens have gradually become this numb, boring, and indifferent.
I don't want to die, and living is pretty boring. Then I have to watch the spiritual energy in the heavens dwindle and watch myself head towards death. That feeling is truly indescribable.
Just like Liu Yun in front of us, he only dares to drink a sip of wine every few decades because the celestial realm no longer has the resources to brew wine.
"Why is the spiritual energy in the celestial realm dissipating?"
When Tang Yu asked this question, Liu Yun's expression became complicated.
"Over the years, I've been pondering why Heaven treats us this way. In the last few years, I think I've vaguely guessed the reason."
Apart from immortals like Zhao Yuzhen who gave up their lives, all the immortals who died in the celestial realm before died in mutual slaughter; none of them reached the end of their lifespan.
Although we will eventually die, we are not dead yet, which means we still have a long time to live.
Perhaps this is why Heaven wants to trap us, preferring to dissipate spiritual energy in the human world rather than let us continue to live!
Upon hearing this, Tang Yu finally realized where the problem lay.
Just like in the past life when I was a peach blossom, the celestial realm was very powerful, and immortals could live for a very long time.
However, the Heavenly Realm has the Demon Realm as an enemy, and the two sides often fight each other, resulting in the death of many gods on both sides, thus directly achieving the balance of the Heavenly Dao.
In this world, there are only people who cultivate immortality, but there is no demon realm or demon immortal realm, let alone a demon world.
Therefore, when the gods have no rivals, they have no reason to exist.
In the end, they became the greatest enemy of Heaven, a force that needed to be eliminated.
Everything in the world needs balance, and these immortals want to descend to the mortal realm.
The Way of Heaven can only allow spiritual energy to go to the mortal realm, allowing mortals to cultivate into powerful beings, and prevent immortals from descending to earth!
It's like in later generations: if there were no bad people in the world, would we still need police?
The existence of things is relative. If there were no cold in this world, would there be any warmth?
Two opposing things can only coexist; if one disappears completely, the other cannot exist.
Therefore, the ancestors of the Chinese people who brought civilization to this continent were all cultivators, and none of them brought people from the demon realm or monster realm, which ultimately led to this embarrassing situation!
Chapter 11 Youth Song 11
By the time Tang Yu returned to the mortal realm, a considerable amount of time had passed, and the flow of time varied from place to place.
Li Changsheng said that Tang Yu's departure was equivalent to being gone for a year.
"This world is so big. The flow of time here is different from that outside, and the flow of time in the celestial realm is different from that in your world. There are problems everywhere."
"Do the immortals know what the situation is like in the celestial realm? Why do those immortals desperately descend to the mortal world?"
Tang Yu recounted the situation in the Heavenly Realm: the celestial beings were overcrowded, killing each other, causing spiritual energy to dissipate... and then the spiritual energy was scattered into the mortal realm.
Therefore, immortals descend to the mortal realm seeking a way to survive; remaining in the celestial realm would only mean imprisonment and waiting for death.
"The Way of Heaven is impartial, Yin and Yang are balanced, and reincarnation is orderly. The immortals in the Heavenly Realm are too powerful, so the mortal world must also cultivate strong individuals to resist them. This is originally a balance."
If the celestial beings in the heavenly realm have something to fight against in the demon realm or monster realm, the mortal world would not normally get involved in such matters.
But since there are no demons or monsters in this world, and immortals have no rivals, they can only be rivals to humans!
"So how do we solve this problem? Should we kill all the immortals?"
Tang Yu burst out laughing as soon as Su Baiyi asked the question.
"If all the immortals in the Heavenly Palace are dead, then it will be your turn, the next batch of mortal warriors, to face death."
Under the Heavenly Dao, all immortals are equal; no one can disrupt the balance of the Great Dao.
This answer instantly left Li Changsheng looking troubled and distressed.
"Unable to advance or retreat, it felt like a lump was stuck in one's throat, causing great discomfort."
"Why bother? Didn't you just say you believed I could find a solution? Why don't you believe me now?"
Upon hearing this, both of them showed expressions of excitement.
"Immortal, do you have any brilliant plan? Please tell us quickly, we will be extremely grateful."
This world is complicated and troublesome, but in fact, the greatest truths are the simplest. To solve this difficult problem, the first thing to do is to solve the problem of the overabundance of immortals!
