"The era of spiritual practice has entered the 3.0 era!" Such a shocking title is directly posted on the extraordinary forum of the Pantheon. Click on it and read the news, and you will be able to learn about the decree issued by Hou Tu Tianzun, the supreme god and demon on earth and the controller of one of the three major spiritual practice holy places. The earth will be completely transformed into a cave world, and the gods will be in charge of all the laws of the cave world on earth.
As the news spread, countless practitioners on the forum cheered and shouted together, and some even said that this was another great feat of the practitioners since the Sky City rose into the sky.
"The last ten days!" The New York New Energy Newspaper also published a terrifying headline that day, with words full of worry and despair about the future.
"A carnival feast for practitioners, and the end of mortals!" Someone left this title on Weibo, and it became the headline of the day.
The news did not first appear on Weibo in China, but broke out on the Shanhai News of the Shanhaijing APP, and then spread across the entire network like a tsunami. Various self-media accounts and internet celebrity practitioners also jumped out one after another. Some shouted that the era of practice had entered the second era, while others called it a disaster for the entire world and that everyone would become slaves of the practitioners.
Along with the news that spread throughout the world was the information that had been kept secret by major official organizations before, that the world of gods and demons would leave from another time and space and arrive at the Earth universe. This news not only caused panic among mortals, but also shocked and terrified a large number of low- and middle-level practitioners.
In foreign countries, many people even took to the streets to oppose the decision made by the Houtu Temple and the decree of Tianzun, protesting against the practitioners who ignored the opinions of all ordinary people and decided the fate of the entire world. However, most of those who did this were mortals, and apart from shouting a few slogans, it was useless and no one paid any attention to them.
On the streets of New York, countless people held up white signs: "Protest against the gods from another world entering the Earth!"
"The evil god from another world will bring disaster to the whole world."
"A new practitioner bill must be passed to limit the privileges of practitioners!"
"Freedom belongs to all mankind!"
In a square in London, a group of people were surrounding an old white man dressed as a prophet, who was standing on a high place and delivering a speech: "All of this is a conspiracy by Eastern practitioners. It is because of their promotion that the world has become what it is now. Now they are planning to rule the whole world and enslave the whole world."
In the Sky City, a large number of tourists and ordinary residents took to the streets, walking through the first floor and shouting: "Limit the power of the Supreme Council, remove the authority of lifelong members, and select members of the Supreme Council democratically."
"Only by ending the rule of the Eastern practitioners over the Supreme Council can the Sky City usher in a new era!"
Mortals walked on the streets on the ground, while practitioners traveled through the sky or took the Sky Link to go to higher levels. The entire parade was like a farce. Except for the personnel sent by the Sky City government to maintain order, no practitioners in the city paid attention to it. However, the live broadcast on the Internet attracted a large number of people to get excited.
The entire Internet was in an uproar, and even under the guidance of some snobbish people, the entire public opinion began to point the finger at the Eastern countries and the entire Eastern practitioner group.
However, most of those who took action were ordinary people, while real practitioners and major organizations did not dare to take any action. Even the statements made by official online accounts were cautious.
Gu Xiaobai is a senior student at the Taoist Palace of Baigang University. He can be said to be a true child of destiny and one of the most elite people in the world. As the world's first university for practitioners, Baigang University is basically home to the seeds of practitioners with the highest qualifications in the world. As one of the three holy places, Sky City's natural geographical location close to the Gate of Gods and Demons can also provide Baigang University with the best resources.
In particular, every student of White Harbor University is selected from tens of millions of people, and most of them come from the common people and the lower classes. This has led to the students of White Harbor University becoming a symbol of the rise of lower-class practitioners all over the world, and has allowed countless ordinary people and children to see hope and the future.
And Gu Xiaobai is not an ordinary student of Baigang University. He is the third-ranked student in the assessment of this year's Taoist Palace. Once he graduates, it will be easy for him to enter the official organizational system or join the major sects as a true disciple or senior deacon.
He had been to the Gate of Gods and Demons twice and carried out many missions. His cultivation had reached the late stage of the Foundation Establishment Period and he had hope of achieving the Golden Elixir stage. However, when the last Star Lord Killing Calamity began, the entire Baigang University closed the mission window. Students could go to the Mountain and Sea Realm on their own, but the university's tutors and deans of each college were absolutely not allowed to throw students into this bloody battlefield.
Without any missions and the entire school being on holiday, Gu Xiaobai returned to China and began his career as a lazy bum. Gu Xiaobai started broadcasting live on TikTok and selling some self-made pills such as the Da Li Wan.
In the Shanhaijing live broadcast section, because of his identity as a student of Baigang University and because he often answers some sensitive topics and announces first-hand information in the cultivation world, Gu Xiaobai has tens of millions of fans. Even among practitioners, he is considered a person with some influence, especially for some young people.
However, Gu Xiaobai received a task today, asking him to make some remarks as a student of Baigang University and announce some news.
Gu Xiaobai was sitting in a quiet room with an ancient charm, floating in mid-air. The alchemy furnace in front of him was emitting purple spiritual light. He was broadcasting the alchemy process live and teaching some skills. Because it takes a whole day or several days to make a furnace of elixir, he would broadcast live and chat in his spare time, sell his own powerful pills and make some extra money.
He was wearing a white T-shirt and jeans. The T-shirt was in ink painting style, with large ink-splashed words on the front and back.
The four characters in front of him are "Emperor Tianguan", and behind him is "Number One Under Heaven". His hair is tied into a Taoist bun. He is a fan of Fang Xiu and can be seen everywhere in the Sky City. It is not clear whether he is a real fan or just a superficial fan.
"Look for the Xiaobai brand Dali Pills. One pill will make you invincible, two pills will make you immortal, and three pills will make you a god! Now you can log in to the Shanhaijing client special sale section and enjoy a 9.5% discount..."
If his teacher at the Taoist Palace found out that he was wearing the clothes of Emperor Tianguan and selling powerful pills, he would probably not be spared. Fortunately, the older generation of practitioners at the Taoist Palace School of Baigang College didn't use the Internet much.
"I think my furnace of pills will be ready tonight. I have nothing to do right now, so I'll start the most popular question-and-answer session. If you want to know the latest news or have any questions about cultivation and pill refining, you can ask them and I'll randomly select the answers!"
Then a girl appeared on the screen. She also looked like a college student, but one was a student from an ordinary university, and the other was a student from a cultivator's university.
The girl seemed very excited: "Ah! Boss! You finally chose me. What should I do? This is the first time I talk to a big boss in the foundation building stage, and a big boss from White Harbor University!"
Gu Xiaobai laughed: "We are all college students, there are not so many differences and boundaries, just like chatting normally!"
"Boss, you are not a relative of those sects or practitioners, but you come from an ordinary family like me. I want to ask, what do you think of the recent conflicts between practitioners and ordinary people? There are even some extreme practice organizations that say they want to eliminate all mortals in the world, and only practitioners can survive in the world. Does this represent the thoughts of most practitioners? What do you think of what is said online that mortals will end in a few days?"
Gu Xiaobai thought for a while and said, "I think everyone may have misunderstood the concept. There is no such thing as cultivators and ordinary people. Instead, there are ordinary people and ordinary people who have started to cultivate. We are all of the same race, all human beings."
"Every cultivator starts out as an ordinary person and becomes a cultivator. On Earth, no one is born a god or devil, so ordinary people are like the sea, and we are the fish in the sea. We came from the sea, and we will eventually return to the sea. At least most of the older generation of cultivators, my generation of cultivators, and even those giants who have become gods and devils, think this way."
"It is precisely because of this that the world has the current stable situation. The top practitioners are kind to all human beings. There is no doubt about this."
"So there is no natural contradiction between ordinary people and practitioners. Everyone has the potential to become a practitioner, and everyone's descendants also have the potential to become practitioners. This is not something that can be monopolized by a certain snobbish sect or family."
"As for the recent news about the Earth becoming a cave world and other worlds migrating to the Earth universe, I have also read it. I don't know if you have ever thought about it. The Earth becoming a cave world is actually protecting all humans. Once the era of gods and demons arrives, an Earth without a cave world could end with just one accident."
"As for what's said online about the evil gods from other worlds that are going to destroy the whole world, it's actually a bit ridiculous. The Earth is an independent world, and we are an independent race. That's just our opinion. I believe many of you have seen rumors that the Earth is called Hou Tu Fu Realm by the gods in the Heavenly Court of the Mountain and Sea Realm. In the last era of gods and demons, Hou Tu Tianzun brought the entire Dongtian Xingfu here and finally turned it into a planet. We humans and many species on Earth still have the bloodline of the Mountain and Sea Realm, and this is the proof."
At this point, Gu Xiaobai couldn't help but laugh. He really felt that some of the comments on the Internet were ridiculous.
“Therefore, in the eyes of the immortal gods of the Mountain and Sea Realm, we are just ordinary creatures living in a cave star mansion in the Mountain and Sea Realm. There are tens of thousands of such cave star mansions in the Mountain and Sea Realm, and there are three large worlds with unimaginably vast territories and borders.”
"We are not special, we are very ordinary. In the eyes of the gods in heaven, we are also creatures of the mountain and sea world. No immortal god wants to destroy us. Moreover, our earth also has the great god Hou Tu Tianzun in charge. There are many heavenly star gods among the local practitioners. Even the Heavenly Official Emperor and the Earthly Official Emperor of the Three Officials of Heaven are from Earth. There is really no need for everyone to worry about it."
At this time, someone else immediately asked a question. This was a middle-aged man who looked quite serious: "Do the practitioners really want to enslave all the people in the world? Is the Eastern practice world planning a huge conspiracy as mentioned above?"
Gu Xiaobai shook his head: "Planning a conspiracy? Who can plan such a conspiracy? The Eastern cultivation world is indeed huge, a huge system that makes other cultivation circles around the world tremble in fear. However, within this system, there are a large number of independent and inconsistent groups. No one can command and mobilize the practitioners around the world with a single word. Everything is just everyone's imagination."
After saying that, Gu Xiaobai showed a mysterious look on his face: "I am going to reveal a secret to everyone here. I can guarantee that this is absolutely information that only top practitioners can know. I learned this from my senior. Currently, all the top practitioners in the world are keeping it a secret. This is the real secret information, not what everyone has been speculating about before."
Gu Xiaobai got stuck halfway through his speech and showed a smile that was familiar to everyone.
Immediately, I saw thousands of comments on the barrage: "Gu Xiaobai betrayed Baigang's internal information again!"
"Gu Xiaobai, the guy selling the powerful pills, is stuck in the middle of a suspenseful advertising spree!"
"Die, advertising dog!"
"Hurry up and tell me, I'm so anxious, what's the news?"
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Gu Xiaobai touched his nose and said, "Okay, okay, I won't advertise this time. Everyone should know that the Heavenly Court of the God and Demon World is preparing to come to the Earth Universe this time. Everyone just knows the news and then sets their sights on some strange places."
"But do you know why the Heavenly Court moved the world of gods and demons to the Earth Universe? Because the gods of the ancient Heavenly Court wanted to open up the vast space of the Earth Universe, and the Earth, as the Hou Tufu Realm, is also the first station and will definitely join this trend of the times."
"And the officials of various countries have been spreading conspiracy theories about the Eastern cultivation world abroad. One of the important reasons is to put pressure on practitioners in other cultivation circles around the world, and then try to gain benefits from it and compete for the authority and opportunity to open up a new world this time."
"By then, China, as a great country of spiritual practice, will certainly have immortals and gods who will be appointed to go to the starry sky to open up a foreign temple, that is, a new world. To open up a new world, not only a large number of practitioners are needed, but also a large number of interstellar immigrants. The moon, Mars and all other planets in the solar system, and even the distant star regions outside the solar system, may be opened up as new worlds. The power of gods and demons is unimaginable."
"A newly opened world has vast resources. It is definitely not enough to rely on just one immortal god appointed by the Heavenly Court and a small number of practitioners. By then, a large group of practitioners will surely be born among the immigrants, and there will be more gods stationed in the new world. These are all opportunities."
When Gu Xiaobai announced the news, the number of viewers instantly increased several times, and finally became ten times. Countless shocked exclamation marks flew across the screen, and the barrage of comments like a sea covered the entire screen without a single gap.
"Oh my god! Oh my god! Oh my god! This is the real revelation, this is huge news!"
"I'm stunned. Interstellar immigrants are coming like this?"
"Really? It can't be fake, right?"
"Third place in the Taoist Academy of White Harbor University. This is inside information. How could it be false?"
"I give up! Gu Xiaobai, you dare to spread such news, be careful or those big guys will cause trouble for you and lock you up in a small dark room!"
"Interstellar migration, overseas training ground, I want to go! If I try hard, my bicycle will become a motorcycle, and I will be the next great god and devil!"
Finally, Gu Xiaobai said: "In the new world, there will definitely be countless opportunities and chances. If you feel restricted or dissatisfied, if you feel that the current situation on Earth cannot satisfy everything you want, you can apply to follow the practitioners of the God and Demon level to conquer the sea of stars and open up a new world in the future."
"This is truly a great era, a great era of spiritual practice. As long as you have a dream and dare to act, you can get everything you want in this era!"
It wasn't just Gu Xiaobai who spoke out. Many self-media accounts also spoke out. Such discussions could be seen in various cultivation channels and cultivator gathering areas.
"The truth about the migration of the world of gods and demons to the Earth Universe!"
"A new world of freedom!"
"The future of mankind lies in the sea of stars!"
One shocking headline after another overwhelmed the other explosive headlines, quickly shifting the focus from the Earth's impending transformation into a cavernous world and the conflicts between practitioners and ordinary people to the topic of the era of interstellar practice.
The conflict between ordinary people and practitioners is not due to the life and death conflict between the two.
It is because the resources of the earth have been gradually distributed, and the original practitioners have occupied the world's practice resources, while a large number of ordinary people cannot get the entrance and opportunity to ascend. Now someone tells them that the arrival of the new era will create a large number of opportunities and chances. Countless positions of gods and practice opportunities are hidden in it, and everyone's attention is immediately attracted.
In an instant, the slogan of a large number of foreign marchers became: "I would rather go to other planets to open up new worlds than live in a world ruled by Eastern practitioners and alien gods and demons."
"Build our own kingdom of God on earth!"
Some activists from small countries even thought about moving their entire countries to the stars: "Develop the new world, stop being earthlings!"
