Kaiyuan Child was still in the Immortal City at this time, as his current task was to help City Lord Zhen Yuan survive his Fate Calamity.
This was their teacher’s wish and Kaiyuan Child didn’t dare to defy it. For a while, the whole Immortal City quieted down.
The All Living Beings Sect hadn’t shown its face again, and before they knew it, ninety years had passed!
Liang Sheng hadn’t expected the Immortal City to remain calm for so long. It could only be said that the All Living Beings Sect had suffered heavy losses and was determined to recuperate and regain its strength.
Lives of the cultivators in the Immortal City were unremarkable, with virtually no changes.
The cultivators in the Lower City were still striving hard in their cultivation, each wishing to make a breakthrough and reach the Foundation Establishment, to go to the mysterious Upper City.
The cultivators in the Upper City, living high and mighty, were still enjoying the best resources. Thus, the strong get stronger, and occasionally, a grasshopper would make a breakthrough and enter the Upper City, attracting envious glances.
But without the right opportunities, they would inevitably return to the Lower
City in disappointment a few hundred years later, and continue to pass on their teachings to next generations.
While the Zhou Family has been thriving recently, their bloodline has been suppressed by Heaven and Earth, resulting in a very slow cultivation speed. Although they have made progress from generation to generation, it’s now only the fourth generation of the Zhou Family in the Immortal City, and there haven’t been any significant changes.
Perhaps only after tens of thousands of years, could the Zhou Family’s bloodline be the same as the natives of the Immortal City, no longer restricted by Heaven and Earth.
So the Zhou Family had long-term plans, carefully storing all the spirit stones and other Cultivation Resources they had previously brought from the Desolate Regions.
Every year, they carefully maintain them. Any item that is damaged or destroyed is quickly replaced and then carefully stored again,
This was their long-term plan to ensure that their descendants wouldn’t struggle for cultivation resources. Even though their prime time had passed, they wanted to make sure that their descendants would be taken care of.
After all, they had already run out of hope. To put it bluntly, they were just waiting for death, so the Zhou Family’s life had become increasingly low-key and cautious.
People like Jin Quanxiu and Huang Yifan also had no expectations at this time, their cultivation realms had hardly made any progress.
Given that, besides their daily cultivation, they have also begun to slowly enjoy life, with Shen Wuque still being the most open-minded among them.
Living requires adaptation. If you can’t adapt, what use is such a long lifespan? They were already living in the Immortal City, and compared to the cultivators who were wiped out in the Desolate Regions, they were far luckier, at least they were still alive.
Being alive itself requires courage. Living in the Immortal City does not require aggression, nor does it require shouting.
If they were to shout, they would become like the practitioners of the All Living Beings Sect, who only resisted because they felt that their fate was unfair.
Perhaps several generations ago, cultivators in the city could obtain more cultivation resources and increase their cultivation level through hard work and ambition.
But now, such a situation is impossible. No matter how hard you work or how ambitious you are, without a family background, you can only rely on fate.
It’s not to say that ordinary cultivators will always be rewarded with progress for their hard work, as they can hardly bridge the class divide now.
Just like the cultivators in the Lower City, they exhaust their lives just to build up resources, betting on the chance that they may successfully establish their foundation.
But for a Nascent Soul Master like “Chen Quan”, spending a piece of mid-grade spirit stone on food and drink is nothing. They are on a very different level.
Ordinary cultivators, in truth, are just surviving with difficulty. Their greatest quality is their strong will to live.
Because a shortage of cultivation resources is sure to accompany them throughout their life, while the descendants of those high and mighty beings live a life of ease, their starting point might already be the endpoint of ordinary cultivators.
This might be why there are so many practitioners of the All Living Beings Sect. Faced with an unfair fate, they shout out their life’s protests.
If you don’t have the courage to protest, then just live a normal life. That’s the only thing the Zhou Family can do now.
In this world, it’s already a sign of bravery for ordinary people to continue living.
The Lower City.
Chen Family Manor.
At the moment, nothing much has changed around the Chen Family Manor.
With “Chen Quan” standing guard, who dares to be presumptuous around the Chen Family?
If one were to say there are any changes within the Chen Family’s territory, it would be that the spiritual fields within a hundred miles around have all become Chen Family’s properties.
This is not because “Chen Quan” forcefully seized them, but rather the proprietors of these spiritual fields actively chose to align with him. After all, it feels good to rest under a big tree.
With the protection of the Chen Family, these proprietors no longer need to pay taxes to local forces, hence their annual income is even higher.
Liang Sheng, of course, would not refuse. Given “Chen Quan'”s temperament, he wouldn’t refuse such a benefit given to him.
Unbeknownst to all, within several hundred miles, “Chen Quan” had become an uncrowned king. When he so much as sneezed, it would cause three rounds of reverberations.
Early one morning, as per usual, Liang Sheng leisurely left his home and went to the Gourmet Street that had come into existence because of him.
The faces on the Gourmet Street now were greatly changed; ninety years had passed, many cultivators failed to make breakthroughs, their lifespan exhausted, and they turned into dried bones, leaving no trace in the world.
The vendor at the wonton stall immediately wore a smile when he saw Liang Sheng coming. However, the vendor was no longer the Old Yang from before but Little Yang.
Decades ago, Old Yang found his Daoist partner and Little Yang was their blood descendant. Unfortunately, a few years ago, Old Yang exhausted his lifespan and died.
Thankfully, Old Yang left behind a business for Little Yang. This wonton shop, because of Liang Sheng’s business, made Little Yang’s cultivation resources worry-free.
