Free Web NovelChapter 1219: Chapter 943: Plan to Restore Order
"That’s right."
Du Li nodded in response, "Back then, the righteous cultivators of the Human Race devised the open strategy of using the demon core in medicine, with the Demon Realm Alliance secretly assisting and helping to build teleportation arrays, leading to a rapid and massive implementation in a very short time.
From a certain perspective, this indeed made life easier in the Wilderness World.
However, as it has developed till today, many demon beast clans seem to have adapted to the new way of survival, and their reproduction speed has greatly increased, so the rapid growth situation remains worrisome."
Looking at each other, the ten sect leaders found no disagreement with these words.
The strategy devised by the righteous cultivators originally was thought to be smoothly implemented due to the demon cultivators’ greed, but once it was launched, it quickly swept across the Wilderness World, which was somewhat unexpected.
Now, it seems reasonable to say the Demon Realm Alliance secretly facilitated this.
"By laying it bare, we can proceed with a good discussion." Jiang Yuan took a sip from his teacup, "To put it plainly, the immediate priority is for the feuds between the two races to be set aside, so the Wilderness World can survive, which is the most critical.
This goal is also the shared purpose of all of us, including the Demon Realm Alliance.
Otherwise, fierce competition is meaningless; if the world collapses, the overwhelming majority of beings living here will face catastrophe.
During this void journey, I’ve seen far too many collapsing world fragments and void refugees."
Everyone stared at him intently, awaiting further explanation.
Jiang Yuan calmly explained, "The fall of the Wilderness World has two root causes: firstly, the deficiency of the Four Symbols Divine Beast; secondly, the rampant infestation of demon beasts.
The former has solutions, though not urgent. Moreover, even if the Four Symbols Divine Beast could successfully ascend to guard the world again, if the root problem of the latter is not resolved, it remains futile.
The reason for the rampant infestation of demon beasts is simple — the Wilderness World is only suitable for the Human Race to survive, not designed as a survival space for demon beasts from its inception.
Everyone knows the Human Race is clever but fragile, with a short lifespan. To meet these conditions, the Wilderness World’s environment is mild and rich in resources;
whereas demon beasts have thick skins, long lifespans. They need to battle and acquire resources in harsher environments to effectively curb their numbers, sift out outstanding demon beasts, and then breed a stronger next generation.
Misalignment with the survival environment led to no natural disasters or formidable enemies for demon beasts.
Apart from their rampant destructive behavior of eating, drinking, and excreting, it’s reckless reproduction, losing the natural selection process, causing more clans of demon beasts to become clumsier and dumber.
I think the Demon Realm Alliance must have documented extensively, and upon careful review, it would be discovered that the quality of demon cores is deteriorating."
Upon finishing, he looked towards Du Li with an inquisitive gaze.
The other party was still secretly astonished by the brief mention of the Four Symbols Divine Beast issue, wondering if Mr. Jiang had a solution?
Suddenly questioned, Du Li hesitated before nodding, "Sir’s words are completely correct!
However, I have not previously considered the issue of declining demon core quality, but instead found that those clans that have been breeding recklessly are becoming more foolish, and in fact, many clans haven’t produced a single intelligent being in the last hundred years.
Turns out it’s because the environment is too comfortable, lacking survival threats resulting in..."
"Without natural disasters, without formidable enemies, the only crisis demon beasts face is being teleported near townships and hunted."
The Cloud Concealment Sect’s Leader Cang Rui spoke gravely: "Thus, they become complacent and stop striving to improve their cultivation, opting to reproduce more instead.
The more they reproduce, the greater the environmental destruction they cause, severely diluting clan bloodlines, forming a vicious cycle."
The Wilderness World’s crisis was slowly disclosed, and the Qingfeng Hall Master pursued further, "Since slaughter is ineffective, Daoist You, how do you propose to break the deadlock?"
"Slaughter cannot address the root cause for two reasons: firstly, we are ultimately righteous cultivators, and while slaying demon beasts for survival and cultivation is understandable, if it’s purely for massacre, it affects the Daoxin.
Therefore, even those who make a living from slaying demon beasts will, to some extent, show mercy and not exert full effort;
The second reason is that demon beasts, even if not intelligent, possess strong bodies and power. To slay a slightly formidable demon beast requires multiple demon cultivators working together, possibly taking a whole night just to kill one, being highly inefficient."
Having stated facts and gained everyone’s agreement present, Jiang Yuan continued, "The void journey yielded substantial gains, and notably, I found a world suitable for demon beasts to live in, and nearly devoid of beings."
Everyone present looked at each other, seeing a hint of astonishment in each other’s eyes.
After all, in this room, everyone could travel to Otherworlds at any time. While there are indeed Otherworlds explored from the Wilderness World that are either spiritually deprived or spiritually rich, they’ve never heard of a world with rich enough spiritual energy to support demon beast survival, yet almost empty of beings!
Should such a place exist, undoubtedly it would have been occupied by powerful entities long ago.
Whether the environment is harsh or mild is only relevant to mortals and ordinary demon beasts, as high-level cultivators only concern with whether the spiritual energy is abundant; everything else can be altered at will.
He said he found an empty world, either it’s a lie; or it’s so far-flung in void that it’s near the edge, a deserted place.
"Sir’s intention is to have a large-scale migration of demon beasts?" Du Li only felt his head buzzing.
Suddenly a sense of ominous premonition arose — could he be aiming to solve the current world crisis through the guise of relocating demon beasts, thereby gradually realize a migration plan?
