Chapter 628 An upcoming boom
"Jiaolong, have you ever thought that after the human race becomes stronger by relying on you, they will kill you or your people?"
"Kill me if you want. Living means being killed anyway. Either I eat people, or they eat me. It makes no difference... Besides, as long as I become strong enough and ascend, no one will be able to kill me, right?"
Bai Tian felt very surprised by Jiaolong's answer.
Using ascension as a form of protection is a good idea. Before ascending, no matter what means you use, as long as you can become stronger, it will be fine.
Bai Tian asked again, "Jiaolong, have you ever seen anyone ascend? Can one ascend as long as they have enough strength?"
"No," the dragon replied, "Not everyone can ascend successfully. Some will be killed, while others will fall from the sky and lose their power."
It seems that the ascension rules written by Zhang Bairen are relatively complete, taking many factors into consideration. Of course, there will definitely be some loopholes in the early stages of ascension, which is inevitable.
Bai Tian said softly, "Jiaolong, if you really want to ascend, you need to do some good deeds. At least, there can't be too many causes and effects."
"What is cause and effect?" The dragon turned its head and stared at Bai Tian strangely with its big eyes.
Bai Tian opened his mouth, but didn't know how to explain it. The question of cause and effect was too complicated. He and Zhang Bairen discussed it for a long time in the heavenly realm, but they couldn't come up with a perfect answer.
Seeing that Bai Tian didn't answer, Jiaolong turned his head again and said in a voice again: "I don't care about that. If I can't ascend, I will die."
Bai Tian couldn't help but sigh that this dragon had a very good mentality.
Becoming stronger is for the sake of pleasure, regardless of cause and effect, as long as it is pleasant, that's all. As for the overall situation, it has no control over it.
After the fun, if you can’t ascend, you will die.
Isn’t this a kind of free and easy attitude?
However, should people who practice cultivation really live in such a carefree manner?
Fear of death should be a biological instinct, but how many people can really face it calmly?
However, judging from Jiaolong's attitude, Bai Tian had a vague feeling that the human world might undergo a major ideological change after the emergence of the ascension system.
Many of the previous ideas are no longer suitable for the future human world and are destined to be eliminated...
Not long after, Bai Tian rode a dragon and approached the city.
It can be seen that some time has passed since the last battle, and the traces of the previous battlefield have gradually disappeared.
Before they got close to the city, a group of people flew out.
When the dragon was let down to the ground during the day, it behaved well, but there was resentment in its eyes.
During the day he got off the dragon's back and walked to the front and stood there.
A group of people came flying in from the front, landing about fifty meters away. Then, two people slowly approached.
One is a middle-aged man with silver hair, and the other is Wang Da.
The two of them looked at Bai Tian as they walked. Bai Tian stood still, looking at them calmly.
After approaching to about twenty meters away, the silver-haired middle-aged man quickened his pace and walked over, looking a little excited.
When he reached Bai Tian, the silver-haired middle-aged man immediately knelt on one knee: "Hao Tian lives forever!"
Bai Tian was not surprised and nodded slightly: "Get up and talk."
When the silver-haired middle-aged man stood up, Bai Tian glanced at him and said softly, "I think I've seen you before."
The silver-haired middle-aged man replied, "Haotian, I am Gao Yao, a teacher of the Kingdom of Heaven. I used to be with Emperor Yao."
Bai Tian couldn't think of anything, so he just nodded and said, "Very good. This black dragon has been transformed for me. Don't kill it for now. I'll keep it for future use."
As he was speaking, Bai Tian turned around and looked at the dragon with a smile, but the dragon was so scared that it quickly lowered its head.
It heard the conversation between the two and was almost scared to death. This man turned out to be Haotian... No wonder he was not human!
Gao Yao smiled bitterly: "This black dragon is very powerful. After killing Emperor Shun, the king ordered us to slay the dragon and, by the way, plan Cangwu into the Nine Provinces."
Bai Tian responded and followed Gao Yao forward, asking, "I heard they said Wen Ming became the king five years ago?"
Gao Yao didn't hide it: "Yes. When the ascension channel was opened, the world was still flooded. The king led the army to control the flood, and then... by the way, he launched the Jiuzhou plan. In the past few years, the Kingdom of Heaven has been fighting wars in the south and the north to recapture various parts of Jiuzhou."
"The king intended to make Cangwu the southernmost state in the Nine Provinces, and had been planning this for many years. Emperor Shun actually came to Cangwu to negotiate peace, but he didn't expect to be attacked on the way..."
As Gao Yao walked, he recounted in detail what had happened in the past few years.
From the flood that occurred after the ascension channel was opened, to the gradual ascension of masters from all walks of life, to Si Wenming ascending to the throne of the country and then laying out the plan to unify the Nine Provinces.
It was clear from daytime that Gao Yao came prepared and spoke in great detail.
Bai Tian asked, "Wen Ming asked you to come to me, right?"
Gao Yao did not hide it: "Yes. During the battle two months ago, the king suspected that it was you who showed up, so he sent me here to wait for you."
Bai Tian nodded slightly: "What trouble did he encounter?"
Gao Yao hesitated for a moment and whispered, "It can't be said to be a trouble, just some trouble."
Seeing that he was hesitant to speak, Bai Tian stopped and said, "Just say it directly."
Gao Yao took a deep breath and whispered, "Then I'll just say it directly."
"There are two main reasons. First, the king wants to gather some experts to forge nine tripods in front of the Haotian Monument, and then distribute them to the Nine Provinces. The Nine Tripods represent the Nine Provinces. As long as the Nine Tripods are there, the Nine Provinces will not be destroyed."
"That's a great idea." Bai Tian tilted his head. "What are the difficulties?"
Gao Yao smiled bitterly: "The Haotian Monument is too powerful. It is difficult for us to use its power, so..."
Bai Tianle Ran said: "You want me to call upon the power of the Haotian Tablet to give you guys? Okay."
Before Gao Yao could be happy, Bai Tian asked again, "What's the current situation of the Haotian Monument?"
"It has become a holy place for cultivation, but it is a bit difficult to enter and exit." Gao Yao replied.
It seemed that Feng Zhongzheng's plan had succeeded. He had completely merged himself with the Haotian Monument, and then transformed the area around the Haotian Monument into a sacred place for cultivation, a place of cultivation with only rules and no emotions.
"What's the other question?"
Gao Yao became hesitant again: "On the other hand, it is about the law and the future system of the Kingdom of Heaven."
"System?" Bai Tian frowned.
Gao Yao sighed: "Haotian, the human world has changed. The previous system seems to no longer be suitable for the Kingdom of Heaven."
"After the Ascension Channel was opened, it became difficult for people to unite, and many strange ideas emerged. This is why the King was anxious to capture Cangwu and then secure Jiuzhou. The King speculated that in five years at most, many ideological conflicts would arise within the Heavenly Kingdom, potentially leading to unrest."
"The Lord may be thinking of using stricter laws and systems to govern the Kingdom of Heaven, and to control the Nine Provinces through feudal fiefdoms..."
Bai Tian's pupils suddenly constricted. A feudal system?!
