One Trait Draw Per Year Even Simulations Count

[Shen Yang is now very appreciative of you.]

[”A world war is approaching, a catastrophe that all of the human world must face, not the responsibility of any single person.

Yet you have taken the initiative to shoulder the burden of resistance, running tirelessly for this cause. The human world is truly fortunate to have you!

Rest assured, if the Alien Race attempts to invade, the Shen Family will go all out.

Now, with the intelligence you have provided, we have already gained the upper hand. Leave the matter of strengthening the martial artists of the human world to the Shen Family.”]

[The Starry Domains are rich in resources; the Shen Family controls a full eighteen different methods.]

[As long as the Shen Family is willing to allocate a portion of those resources to equip martial artists across the human world, the overall combat strength of humanity will inevitably be enhanced.]

[This is far better than putting all our eggs in the Shen Family’s basket.]

[The last simulation was a lesson learned.]

[Once the Shen Family is targeted and crushed by the Dragon-Man tribe, the human world would have a slim chance of turning the tide.][Although the Shen Family was broken through last time partly because the Founding Ancestor wasn’t there.]

[Don’t ask why the Founding Ancestor wasn’t there.]

[Shen Yang seemed to recall something, frowning as he spoke.]

[”From what I remember, although the Dragon-Man tribe is not weak, they are hardly a top-tier race within the Void Realm.

We can let it slide that they succeeded in their sneak attack on the Demon Tribe thirty thousand years ago, considering it was a dishonorable victory.

But they have been waging world wars for the past thirty thousand years, and have managed to keep winning and survive until now?”]

[You speculated.]

[”Could it be that over the past thirty thousand years, through one world war after another, the Dragon-Man tribe has only grown stronger?

If they can grant extended lifespans to their common soldiers, it means their high-ranking members must have even more lifespan.

With their powerful beings living so long, their numbers naturally grow, allowing them to overwhelm other worlds.”]

[”No, that’s impossible. A world has a limit on the number of cultivators it can support.”]

[”What do you mean?”]

[”Suppose a world can only support a maximum of one hundred Body Refining Realm cultivators.

When one of those hundred Body Refining cultivators breaks through to become a Spirit Gathering cultivator.

The remaining ninety-nine Body Refining cultivators will never be able to break through, unless the earlier Spirit Gathering cultivator dies first.”]

[”What’s the principle behind that?”]

[”The quantity of Mundane Qi is fixed.”]

[Old Shen, you truly are an academic talent, opening up a whole new perspective for me.]

[The ”Essence of Heaven and Earth” that martial artists often talk about is actually a part of ”Mundane Qi.”]

[The amount of Mundane Qi within each Void Realm is fixed.]

[When a cultivator starts cultivating from a mortal and their realm continuously ascends, it is essentially the process of storing Mundane Qi within their own body.]

[When they die, the Mundane Qi stored within their body is released.]

[And it’s not just cultivators.]

[All living beings, everything with life, will store Mundane Qi throughout their growth, only releasing it through processes of decay like aging and death.]

[Mundane Qi has ownership.]

[If a human runs off to the Demon World, even if they die there, the Mundane Qi released upon their death will still return to the human world.]

[”According to this logic, shouldn’t every Void Realm be equally powerful? With the same number of experts?”]

[”Cultivation isn’t that simple.

The cultivation potential of every race is different.

Some races could develop for a million years and still not know what the Martial God Realm is.

The human race was once the top of the Void Realm, and even in that era, the number of experts never touched the limits of the human world.”]

[Shen Yang told you this just to say that the Dragon-Man tribe couldn’t just accumulate experts without limit through everyone living forever; there would always be a cap standing in their way.]

[But that doesn’t mean their number of experts couldn’t form an overwhelming force, because compared to them, the experts of other worlds are just too few.]

[Suddenly, a thought struck you.]

[”What if… the Dragon-Man tribe found a way to change the ownership of Mundane Qi?

They use world wars to kill all life in one realm, releasing all the Mundane Qi, and then transfer it to their own world?”]

[This idea of yours was quite bold. Even Shen Yang gasped sharply upon hearing it.]

[”If something like this is possible, then the Dragon-Man Realm would be terrifying.”]

[Terrifying indeed.]

[Just from the last simulation, you knew that the Dragon-Man tribe could wage war against four Void Realms simultaneously!]

[If they had people fighting on the frontlines, they must have had people defending at home.]

[Their true strength was incalculable.]

[You decided to keep this piece of intelligence to yourself for now, lest the human world lose the confidence to resist and be defeated before the war even began.]

[”By the way, Brother Shen, I heard from Senior Hu that many worlds are launching world wars. Do you know the reason? Surely not every world has figured out a way to transfer Mundane Qi?”]

[Shen Yang hesitated slightly, as if unsure whether he should speak.]

[”This matter might also be related to our race’s response to the Dragon-Man tribe’s invasion. It’s a matter of grave importance!”]

[Your 「Chinese-Style Succubus」 trait activated again.]

[”It’s to achieve immortality.”]

[Having listened until now, the sheer amount of information hit Shen Qingshan like relentless waves crashing against the shore.]

[Of course, he was utterly baffled as to how you had grown to the point of being able to casually chat with an ancestor who had lived for thirty thousand years.]

[Now, upon hearing such explosive news about ”immortality,” Shen Qingshan couldn’t help but exclaim on the spot.]

[”Is there really such a thing as immortals in this world? Aren’t they just a legend?”]

[Shen Yang sighed.]

[”In the Void Realm, immortals are indeed a legend. But once you reach the Real Realm, immortals are not so ethereal; they become a sliver of fortune you can grasp.

In the Void Realm, like our human world, no matter what your innate talent is, or how many opportunities and resources you have, the Martial God Realm is the absolute limit of all cultivation paths.

But that is not the limit of cultivation itself.

If you can Shatter the Void Through Martial Prowess and enter the Real Realm,

A much longer path to immortality will unfold before your eyes.

However, something seems to be wrong with the Real Realm. None of the cultivators who ascended from our Void Realms have been able to become immortals there.

So, some experts of the Void Realms began to seek a different path, wanting to bypass the Real Realm and achieve immortality directly within the Void Realm!

I don’t know exactly how winning a world war allows one to become an immortal.

But I vaguely understand that so many worlds are launching world wars, including the Human Emperor’s war against the Demon World thirty thousand years ago, all in an attempt to bypass the Real Realm and become immortals directly!”]

[You felt you had just heard some earth-shattering news.]

[”Wait… The Human Emperor launched a world war against the Demon World? Am I getting this wrong? Wasn’t it the Demon World that attacked the human world?”]

[Shen Yang gave a wry smile.]

[”At that time, I was a disciple in the Human Emperor’s Palace, so I can confirm that it was indeed the Human Emperor who first took the initiative to start the war.

However, the news leaked.

Before the human world could prepare, the Demon Emperor actually launched a preemptive attack, catching the Human Emperor completely off guard.

The Demon Emperor was playing his own game quite well.

He paid a tremendous price to ferry his army into the human world, making the human world the battlefield.

Regardless of victory or defeat, his own splendid Demon World would not suffer any damage.”]

[Who said the Demon Tribe had no brains?]

[This Demon Emperor was both decisive and wise!]

[It was true that no one who could be the master of an entire world was simple.]

[”I didn’t know there was such a layer of hidden history…”]

[Everyone had thought it was the Demon World attacking the human world that led to the mutual destruction of the two great races.]

[No one expected the true history to contain another layer of secrecy.]

[”I’m curious, why didn’t the Human Emperor pick on the weak first, befriend distant states while attacking those nearby, and ally with the Demon Tribe to attack other races?”]
