687 Live Well With Big Tool (1/2)

There were not that many things that could surprise Wang Lu, but the words of Four Element Supreme did break through Wang Lu's defense.

Before he visited Four Element Supreme, he had guessed more or less what happened when they met. Being ignored, provoked, and even beaten up… And he had the corresponding plans.

However, Wang Lu really did not expect that the other party would ask about the marriage issue.

While Wang Lu was still in a daze, Four Element Supreme opened his mouth.

”For someone who has arrived at the golden period such as yours, it's time for you to find someone to marry and have children.”

Wang Lu asked, ”Is this your Four Element School's special 'exchange greetings' skill?”

Four Element Supreme said, ”Exchange greetings? What exchange greetings?”

Wang Lu replied, ”... Are you serious about what you just said?”

”Naturally, it's serious.” Four Element Supreme was surprised. ”Do I look like I'm kidding?”

Wang Lu inwardly thought, you look like you're being provocative, but in the end, he sighed. ”I would like to hear more about it.”

Four Element Supreme said, ”I have been observing you for a long time. At first, I thought you were just a mongrel who got lucky in stealing mysteries known only to heaven, but I quickly found out that I was wrong. You have noble blood flowing in your body, and this blood should be passed on. Hence, marriage and having children are inevitable choices… Unless you have that ailment, in which case, you don't have to worry, I have some special remedies for that ailment.”

It was quite a while before Wang Lu could say a few words, ”My tool is big and I live pretty well. If you don't believe me, you can ask your wife to experience it.”

The Four Element Supreme was not angry. Instead, he said with a smile, ”I knew it. Since there's no problem, then that's all the better. The sooner you get married and have children, the better. Your bloodline is very precious, therefore, it's best to spread it…”

Before the Four Element Supreme could continue, Wang Lu had to interrupt him because there were already too many questions in his mind.

”No need to hurry, Supreme. Could you please first elaborate on the three issues of stealing the secret known only to heaven, noble bloodline, as well as inheritance.”

Four Element Supreme frowned. ”What's wrong, you don't even know about these matters? What did the people of Spirit Sword Sect teach you then? Very well, let me explain it to you from the basic part.”

”The world's spirit roots are limited, so if in this part it's thicker, then in that part it's thinner.”

The first sentence of Four Element Supreme had begun to shake the foundation of Wang Lu's common sense.

The world's spirit roots are limited? This argument was really new to him. As everyone knew, besides artificial spirit root, natural spirit roots were highly random. This was reflected in the individual level in which it was very difficult for couples to ensure that their offspring would have natural spirit roots when they were born. Of course, through thousands of years of accumulation, some immortal cultivation families had mastered some metaphysical theories, which could increase the probability of their families' descendants having natural spirit root, but it was still not a certainty. Even at a large number of groups, the randomness of spirit root was still difficult to conceal. In different times, the quality of cultivators could differ enormously, and it was difficult to say there were even any rules. Sometimes, dozens of extraordinary talents could be born in a hundred years, but sometimes, there were no outstanding talents in four or five hundred years.

This was the nature of spirit root in Nine Regions. It was highly random and difficult to grasp. If not so, in the past, the founder of Shengjing Sect Patriarch Liu He wouldn't have to painstakingly study the artificial spirit root.

”But actually, that's a lie.” Four Element Supreme stated it as a matter of factly, ”The world's spirit roots are indeed scattered and distributed, but the total number has always been the same. If the distribution is concentrated to the few, then rare geniuses would emerge endlessly, and that's the so-called golden generation. If the distribution is evenly scattered, then everyone is trash, and that's the so-called low point—because there are too many miscellaneous spirit roots that couldn't enter the cultivation world's field of view.”

Hearing this, Wang Lu had a vague insight into the implied meaning of Four Element Supreme.

”That is to say, in case of the constant amount of spirit root resources, the higher the degree of concentration, the better?”

Four Element Supreme said, ”If the same amount of spirit roots are distributed among ten people and among one hundred thousand people, which side do you think is more beneficial to the immortal cultivation world? Which is more valuable, ten miscellaneous spirit roots or one heaven spirit root?”

Wang Lu was silent for a moment and then nodded. ”So, the so-called stealing opportunities mean that there are too many mediocre and incompetent people who scatter the distribution of spirit roots, making it difficult for Nine Regions to breed rare talents?”

Four Element Supreme replied, ”On this point, Supreme Wang Lu's understanding is slightly biased. Mediocrity is not bad in itself. There are many mediocre people among my friends. Although they came from a high-rank noble family, it is hopeless for them to even reach Jindan Stage for life. However, I don't think that their existence is wrong.”

”So what's your saying is…”

Four Element Supreme was silent for a moment, but when he started to speak again, he shifted the topic away.

”Supreme Wang Lu, according to your opinion, what is the most important thing for the immortal cultivation world in the entire Nine Regions?”
