only……

"This road is still not going to work after all!"

Li Yao sighed in his heart.

Han Yuantai is full of confidence. After their new generation of "Yun Qin" eliminates the chronic disease of internal sects, they can live up to the country and rule for thousands of years.

But this is impossible.

Even in the most perfect situation, these cultivators who belong to the "country" are really highly united, and there is no internal conflict, and the efficiency of resource utilization is ultimately unable to solve a fundamental problem.

That is, cultivators in the classical era basically all bottomless pits that only enter but not exit. While consuming a lot of resources, they did not produce too many "products" that are useful to society.

How many crystals, how many magical medicines should be consumed, how many heavenly and earth treasures should be consumed when a cultivator starts from awakening the spiritual roots and cultivates the elixirs, how many heavenly and earthly treasures should be consumed?

How many people do these crystal stones, magical medicines and treasures in heaven and earth require, how many spiritual fields and famous mountains and rivers can be provided?

After devouring so many resources and becoming a peerless master, what can this peerless master provide to society?

As far as Li Yao knows, the cultivators of the classical era put aside those evil cultivators who were wrong and committed evil deeds, even those who were famous and upright cultivators often only focused on force and despised any profession that could not improve their force.

Even if they are "heroic and righteous, kill demons and eliminate demons", to put it bluntly, the main product they can provide to society is "force"!

When most of the elites in a world devour most of the resources, the only product they can output is "force force", so much "force force" will definitely be oversupply.

If you want to make such a society embark on a virtuous cycle and constantly expand without being overwhelmed by excessively inflated force, there is only one way to expand into the external world with "excessive force" and constantly plunder more resources!

Therefore, at the end of the ancient times, in the Three Thousand Worlds, many worlds took the lead and completely eliminated the chaos of internal sects and endless disputes. After a high degree of centralization, their aggressiveness and combat effectiveness instantly exploded to the extreme, and they embarked on the path of militant and external expansion!

Federal historians called this road the "classical militarism" road!

At first, the path seemed to be successful.

In front of these cultivators who practice classical militarism and are highly condensed with the concept of "national". In front of the army of cultivators who are as strong as steel, those who are still deeply trapped in the whirlpool of sects and endless civil strife, the free and scattered, unorganized and disciplined "medium-century cultivation world" without any power to fight back were destroyed.

However, good times do not last long, and expansion always has its limits. When most of the "medium-cultival worlds" in the three thousand worlds are destroyed, and the remaining "classical militarist worlds" are like wolves and tigers, strong collisions are inevitable.

That is the era of "the first 3,000-world total civil war" mentioned in historical books.

That is, at the end of this level of civil war where the war swept across the three thousand worlds, the demon race was created in large numbers, and while the "classical militarist cultivation world" were both defeated and dying, they turned around and dominated the starry sea, opening the prelude to the "30,000-year Dark Age".

Ultimately, the problem with the classical militarist world of cultivation is that it cannot solve the contradiction between cultivators' "only enter and not leave" resources, but only cover up this contradiction again and again with constant invasion and conquest.

However, in the process of continuous invasion and conquest, the cultivators' desire for "force" will only intensify. When invasion and conquest are setbacks, no matter how powerful the military country is, it will collapse!

The situation in the ancient sage world will only be even more tragic.

Because the three thousand worlds outside were in the ancient times 40,000 years ago, the star torch and the star sea teleportation array left by the 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 the ancient cultivation, an expedition across the star sea can be achieved.

Therefore, when an ancient world has completed its transformation from the "Meso-Ancient Sectarian Era" to the "Classical Militarism Era", it can easily invade externally and divert internal contradictions!

If you are lucky, it can even swallow up several or even dozens of relatively backward cultivation worlds within hundreds or thousands of years, becoming a behemoth across the sea of ​​stars, and its life cycle can last for thousands of years!

But the ancient holy world is wrapped in thick dark nebula, and it is difficult to jump out.

Moreover, the times have changed. After tens of thousands of years of war, the outside Xinghai transportation network has been destroyed, and the difficulty of moving the Xinghai Expedition has greatly increased!

Besides, the outside world is very dangerous. There is no soft persimmon in the starry sea now. Not to mention monsters like the real human empire and the Covenant Alliance, even the Star Glory Federation a hundred years ago is not a false ancient holy world!

Even if the ancient sage world really enters the era of "classical militarism", who can we conquer?

Without a new conquering object, this system of drinking poison to quench thirst cannot be maintained at all.

Lee Yeo believes in Han Won-Tae's sincerity, and also believes in the ambition of Yun Qin's regent Han Baling, and even more so that Yun Qin's cultivation world is now in the best state of unity and efficient organization!

But this is because they face powerful external threats and the whole world can conquer them continuously.

What will happen after they overthrow Daqian, pacify the world, and unify the world?

Li Yao cannot find a new outlet for "excessive force". He does not think that this so-called "Yunqin Dynasty" can last for five hundred years.

"This is a fundamental contradiction that cannot be resolved."

"Only by establishing the concept of 'serving the people' and giving back to the public a large number of resources he has swallowed in various forms including but not limited to 'force', so that resources can flow continuously between cultivators and ordinary people and continue to survive, so that this society can embark on a virtuous cycle of sustainable development!"

"After all, the so-called 'cancer' is neither a sect nor a military country, but a cultivator who only knows how to claim and does not know how to reward, and constantly devour resources like a black hole, but has no use for nothing!"

"How much resources does the birth of an old Nascent Soul monster consume and how much manpower and material expenditure are hidden behind it?"

"Not to mention that this old Nascent Soul monster relies on his supernatural powers, does evil, and is rampant, destroying the existing social order."

"Even if he advocates a free and easy life, focuses on his own cultivation, does not care about the world, and does not make any contribution to society, and will eventually be killed by the heavenly tribulation and shattered the void, will not be wasted so many resources?"

"Even, even if he occasionally comes out to be a hero and righteous person, kills demons and eliminates demons, is this contribution proportional to the resources he consumes?"

"A such a deformed world of cultivation will be unsustainable even if it is armed with the armor of 'classical militarism' and evolved into a modern state form!"

The Yunqin people were walking on a wrong path.

Li Yao knew this very well.

But he did not despise the Yun Qin people because of this, and despise Han Won-Tae and one of the more heroic "four evil spirits", Han Baling!

Li Yao has a self-knowledge.

He was able to understand these principles, not because he was smart, but because he stood on the shoulders of countless predecessors, and was summarized by countless historians and sociologists.

The cultivators in the ancient sage world know nothing about the external world, and all experiences and lessons are summarized and accumulated by themselves. Just like a blind man and a blind horse, it is already amazing to be able to move forward in the long night of eternity!

So, is it possible for the Yunqin people to cooperate?

This question is just a matter of two.

On the one hand, the Yunqin people took the path of "classical militarism" and had similarities with the "modern militarism" path of the real human empire, and the two sides might hit it off.

However, from Han Won-tae's conversation and spirit, it can be seen that his brother Han Baling is a brilliant figure who is above the times.

If such a person could be brought to the Federation and allowed him to study history in depth, would he learn from the tragic ending of the "first civil war in the cultivation world" and realize that "this road is blocked", and thus embark on a completely opposite path?

"It's really embarrassing."

"The most critical issue now is that the troublesome factor of the real human empire is mixed in. If the Federation does not find a way to accept these ancient cultivators, they will definitely be attracted by the empire!"

"If I were the scout of the Imperial Expeditionary Fleet, I appeared in the ancient holy world, and understood the situation here, Han Baling would definitely be my choice to contact!"

"So……"

"Will there already exist an imperial cultivator around Han Baling and have some plan in secret?"

Li Yao had a faint toothache. After thinking about it, he coughed gently and attracted two witch monks, Mengduo and the ancient priest.

After learning about his identity as the "Sir Lingjiu Master", two fat and thin witch monks were so scared that they were scattered and could not even stand up. They lay on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly, begging him to spare his life.

Li Yao naturally had no interest in calculating these little fish and shrimps. Anyway, he had been familiar with the two of them these days. Knowing that they had never done anything evil, the evaluation in Wunan area was pretty good, so he asked them to act as temporary entourages.

"Call the father and daughter named Ling."

Soon, the uneasy Ling Shoujing and Ling Lanyin appeared in front of Li Yao.

"We don't waste time."
