It's just
"This road is still impassable after all!"
Li Yao was filled with emotion.
Han Yuantai is confident that their new generation of "Yunqin" will be able to rule for thousands of years after eliminating the chronic disease of sectarian infighting.
But it's impossible.
Even in the most perfect situation, these practitioners, who belong to the "state", are really highly united, do not have any internal contradictions, and can not solve a fundamental problem by stimulating the efficiency of resource utilization to the extreme.
That is to say, the practitioners of the classical era are basically bottomless caves that can only enter and leave. While consuming a lot of resources, they do not produce too many "products" that are useful to society.
How many crystal stones, how many elixirs, and how many natural resources and earth treasures does it take for a true practitioner to cultivate all the way to jiedan, Yuanying, and even Huashen?
How many people, how many spiritual fields, and how many famous mountains and rivers are needed to provide these crystal stones, elixirs, and treasures?
After devouring so many resources and cultivating into a peerless master, what can this peerless master provide for the society?
As far as Li Yao knows, the practitioners in the classical times, regardless of those evil practitioners and evil spirits, often only focused on force and despised any profession that could not enhance force.
Even if "Chivalry and justice, kill demons and demons", frankly speaking, the main product they can provide to the society is "force"!
When the vast majority of the world's elites devour the vast majority of resources, the only product they can export is "force", so much "force" will surely be in excess.
There is only one way for such a society to go on the road of virtuous circle and continuous development without being overwhelmed by the excessive expansion of force - to expand to the outside world with "excessive force" and constantly plunder more resources!
Therefore, at the end of the Guxiu era, many of the three thousand worlds took the lead and completely eliminated the internal sectarian chaos. After the high centralization of power, their aggressiveness and combat effectiveness suddenly broke out to the extreme, and they all embarked on the road of militarism and external expansion!
Federal historians call this road the "classical road"!
At first, the road seemed successful.
In front of the army of these practitioners who are highly united with the concept of "state" and are as steel as iron, those practitioners who are still trapped in the whirlpool of sects and civil strife, who are free and loose, unorganized and undisciplined in the "middle ancient world of cultivation", have no strength to return their hands, and have been destroyed.
However, good times do not last long, and there is always a limit to expansion. When most of the "medieval realms" in the three thousand world are eliminated, and the rest are the "classical realms", it is inevitable that strong forces collide.
That is the era of "the first three thousand world full-scale civil war" in history books.
That is, at the end of the super civil war, when the war swept the 3000 world, the demon clan was created in large numbers, and while each "classical world" was defeated and dying, they turned against the enemy and dominated the sea of stars, opening the prelude of the "30000 year Dark Age".
In the final analysis, the problem of the world of classical cultivation is that it can't solve the contradiction of "only in but not out" of resources. It just covers up this contradiction again and again with constant aggression and conquest.
However, in the process of constant invasion and conquest, the desire for "force" will only become more and more intense. When the invasion and conquest are frustrated, no matter how powerful the military country is, it will collapse!
The situation in the ancient holy world will only be more tragic.
Because the outside world of 3000 was in the age of Guxiu 40000 years ago, and the star torch and star sea transmission array left over from the previous Pangu civilization had not been destroyed. The three thousand worlds were connected into a network, and communication was very convenient. Even with the technical level of Guxiu, we could cross the star sea expedition.
Therefore, when an ancient world has completed the transformation from the "medieval sectarian era" to the "classical era", it can easily launch external aggression and transfer internal contradictions!
If you are lucky, it can even devour several or even dozens of relatively backward realms in hundreds or thousands of years, and become a giant across the sea of stars. Its life cycle can last for thousands of years!
But the ancient holy world is wrapped in a thick dark cloud, and it is difficult to jump out.
And the times are different. After tens of thousands of years of war, the transportation network of Xinghai has been destroyed. The difficulty of launching the Xinghai expedition is greatly increased!
Besides, the outside world is very dangerous. There is no soft persimmon to pinch in the sea of stars now, not to mention such monsters as the human Empire and the covenant alliance. Even the Xingyao Federation a hundred years ago is not empty of the ancient holy world!
Even if the ancient holy world really develops into the "classical era", who can it conquer?
Without a new target of conquest, this system of drinking poison to quench thirst cannot be maintained at all.
Li Yao believes in the sincerity of Han Yuantai, the ambition of Han baling, the Regent of Yunqin, and the best state of unity and efficient organization of Yunqin!
But this is because they are faced with a strong external threat, and the whole world can be conquered.
When they overthrow Daqian, wipe out the whole world and unify the whole country?
We can't find a new outlet for the "excess force". Li Yao doesn't think the so-called "Yunqin Dynasty" can survive the world for 500 years.
"This is a fundamental contradiction that cannot be solved."
"Only when the practitioners set up the concept of" serving the people "and give back to the public in various forms, including but not limited to" force ", a large amount of resources consumed by them, can the society embark on a virtuous circle of sustainable development."
"In the final analysis, the so-called" cancer "is neither a sect nor a military state. It's a practitioner who only knows how to ask, but does not know how to return. Like a black hole, he constantly devours resources, but has no use at all!"
"How many resources will be consumed and how many human and material resources are hidden behind the birth of an old baby monster?"
"Don't mention that the elder monster, relying on his great powers, does evil, runs rampant and destroys the existing social order."
"Even if he advocates a leisurely life, and focuses on self-cultivation, does not care about the world, and does not make any contribution to the society, in the end, he is killed by the natural disaster, and the void is broken, so many resources will not be wasted?"
"Even if he comes out occasionally to help the chivalrous and the righteous, to cut off the demons and demons, is this contribution proportional to the resources he consumes?"
"It's impossible for such a deformed world of Xiuzhen to survive even if it is equipped with the armor of" classic "and evolved into a modern state form."
Yunqin people are on the wrong road.
Li Yao knows this very well.
But he did not despise Yunqin people, despise Han Yuantai and Han baling, one of the more heroic "four evils"!
Li Yao has self-knowledge.
He was able to understand these truths, not because he was smart, but because he stood on the shoulders of countless predecessors and was painstakingly summed up by countless historians and sociologists.
The practitioners of the ancient holy world know nothing about the outside world, and they have to sum up and accumulate any experience and lessons by themselves. It's just like a blind man and a blind horse groping in the eternal night. It's great to be able to advance to this step!
So, is it possible for Yunqin people to cooperate?
There are only two questions.
On the one hand, the people of Yunqin took the road of "classical", which is similar to the "modern" road of Human Empire, so they may hit it off.
But from Han Yuantai's speech and spirit, we can see that Han baling, his elder brother, is a brilliant person who is superior to the times.
If such a person could be brought to the Federation to study history in depth, would he learn some lessons from the tragic ending of "the first civil war in the world of cultivation" and realize that "this road is blocked", so that he would take the opposite road?
"It's embarrassing."
"The most important problem now is that the real human empire is a troublesome factor. If the Federation does not find a way to accept these ancient cults, they will definitely be won over by the Empire!"
"If I'm a scout of the imperial expeditionary fleet, find out the ancient holy world, and understand the situation here, Han baling must be my first contact object!"
"So..."
"Han baling's side, will not have the existence of the imperial immortal, and secretly launched some kind of plan?"
Li Yaoyin had a toothache. After thinking about it, he coughed a little and brought in two wizard friars, mengduo and gusidor.
After learning his identity as "master lingjiu", the fat and thin wuman friars were so scared that they couldn't stand up and kowtowed to beg for his life.
Naturally, Li Yao is not interested in quarreling with these little fish and shrimps. Anyway, he is familiar with them these days. Knowing that they have never done evil deeds, he has a good evaluation in Wunan, so he let them serve as temporary attendants.
"Call the father and daughter surnamed Ling."
Soon, uneasy Ling Shoujing and Ling LAN appear in front of Li Yao because of their father and daughter.
"Let's not waste time."
Li Yao didn't wait for the other party to salute him. With a big wave of his hand, he said straightforwardly, "master Ben has just talked with Han Yuantai. The general situation is clear. Let's talk about it. What do you want and what conditions can you offer?"
