As the population increases, the number of people with spiritual roots will naturally increase. The imperial court will continue to absorb quasi-cultivators with spiritual roots, train them from an early age, and become monks who are loyal to the imperial court. Repeatedly, a virtuous cycle will naturally be formed.
Develop and grow.
Therefore, for hundreds of thousands of years, the Dasheng Dynasty not only had no civil unrest, but also had a stable country, peaceful country and peaceful people. It was developing better and better, and its strength became stronger and stronger, creating an unprecedented prosperous age.
But this does not mean that there are no battles in the Dasheng Dynasty.
The Dasheng Dynasty not only had fights, but many of them.
It's just that the fight does not occur at the mortal level, but at the monk level.
As a dynasty of cultivators, Dasheng looked down upon the things of ordinary people and disdained to collect them, but this did not mean that Dasheng had no desires or demands.
On the contrary, the needs and desires of cultivators are much greater than those of ordinary people.
No matter what, it is something that is beyond the reach of ordinary people.
The Dasheng Dynasty attracted a large number of cultivators, not to build a prosperous country and ensure peace and prosperity for the people, but to have the strength to compete for cultivation resources and satisfy its own needs and desires.
The so-called peace and prosperity of the country and the people are just to lay the foundation for producing more cultivators.
However, although Dasheng is large, its territory is limited after all, and cultivation resources are fixed, so it is nothing at first. When it develops to a certain level and there are more cultivators, fighting for resources will inevitably occur.
The more resources there are and the more precious they are, the more intense the battle will be.
Dasheng's struggle is mainly reflected in two parts: internal and external.
Let’s talk about internal fighting first.
The internal battles are also divided into two aspects. On the one hand, they are looking for cultivation resources, expanding the territory, and fighting against monsters, monsters, and natural dangers.
Cultivation resources are rare and precious, and they are often located in relatively dangerous areas. If you want to obtain these resources, you must overcome these dangers.
Danger includes monsters, monsters, natural dangers, other dangers, etc.
In other words, some dangers are the resources themselves, such as the flesh and blood essence of demons, inner elixir outer skin, etc., which must be killed to obtain them.
This kind of struggle is actually common to the entire world of cultivation and is not lacking anywhere.
As monks practice, if they want to obtain resources and advance through the ranks, they will inevitably fight.
Even within a cultivation sect, there is competition, and only those with outstanding performance will receive more resources to devote to their training.
On the other hand, the battle is between the Dasheng Dynasty and the cultivation sects in the region.
Not all cultivators are willing to join the imperial court.
Although the imperial court is the largest and most powerful group of cultivators, with the most resources, the most generous treatment, and a complete path for advancement, when you join, you also become a minister and slave of the Dasheng royal family, and you must serve them.
Try your best.
You know, as a monk, you have to change your fate against nature and pursue immortality and freedom. How can you be willing to wear shackles, be controlled by others, and obey their orders?
How is that different from a mortal dynasty?
And in a sense, if they are not the Dasheng royal family, then other cultivators are working for the Du family, and the value they create is far greater than the benefits they receive, and they belong to the exploited party.
Moreover, as long as you join the imperial court, you cannot withdraw at will. If you withdraw, it will be tantamount to rebellion and you will be wanted by Da Sheng.
Many monks were not only unwilling to join the imperial court, but also hated the imperial court's control and tyranny, so they naturally stood on the opposite side.
This opposite is the various cultivation sects in Dasheng.
In fact, the history of cultivation sects is far earlier than the Dasheng Dynasty. Before Dasheng was established, many cultivation forces already existed.
Many ancient forces have been inherited for much longer than Dasheng.
After the establishment of the Dasheng Dynasty, it cultivated the population, absorbed cultivators, and competed for cultivation resources, which naturally made it hostile to the cultivating sects.
Because the cultivation sect also needs these, you Dasheng took away all the resources, what should we do?
For the Dasheng Dynasty, these cultivation sects were also natural enemies.
As a ruler, no matter whether they are cultivators or ordinary people, everyone hopes that the people under their control will be obedient, obey their own will, and do whatever they are told.
But the cultivation sects are different. It is said that chivalrous people use force to break the law. You, Dasheng, are a dynasty of monks. It is true that you have extraordinary power. I am not a weakling. I also have extraordinary power. Why should I listen to you?
Submit to your rule?
Do you want to force yourself on me?
No way! We are used to being free, and you want us to obey the laws and rules you promulgate?
Impossible! Do you still want us to hand over our cultivation resources, our sect’s unique skills and magical powers?
That is even more wishful thinking! The Dasheng Dynasty wanted to wipe out the cultivation sects and collect all the cultivation resources to the court. Of course the cultivation sects would not do it. They were also unwilling to abide by the laws and regulations of the Dasheng Dynasty, let alone accept the rule of the imperial court. So,
Rise up and resist.
In this way, the battle between the imperial court and the cultivation sect began.
As the largest and most powerful group of cultivators, the Dasheng Dynasty was at the height of its national power, and with the whole country as its enemy, it naturally had the upper hand. The armies of cultivators from all walks of life marched across the rivers and lakes, wiping out a large number of cultivator sects.
According to this trend, the Dasheng Dynasty will soon wipe out all the sects in the country.
However, the cultivator sect showed amazing resilience and changed its battle strategy.
When they were individually defeated by the imperial court, they joined forces one after another, and the cultivation sects were widely distributed in all parts of the dynasty. They responded to each other, counterattacked randomly, broke into pieces, and caused chaos in various places.
In this way, the Dasheng Dynasty would not be able to concentrate its military superiority and extinguish them one by one.
At the same time, the cultivation sects also learned guerrilla warfare, taking advantage of the vastness of Dasheng's territory to hide in hard-to-find or dangerous areas, making it difficult for the imperial troops to search or dare not go deep alone.
Some forces with long heritage and powerful strength, although their overall strength is not as good as the Dasheng Dynasty, but relying on the mountain-protecting formation, the court cannot easily capture them or has to pay a heavy price, so the court is afraid to attack rashly.
Faced with this situation, the Dasheng court also took measures, such as softening, recruiting, undercover, and differentiation, etc., and achieved great results.
Some cultivation sects were afraid of being beaten and no longer wanted to be hostile to the imperial court. Just as the imperial court gave them permission, they stepped down and became cultivation sects belonging to the imperial court.
Such a cultivation sect can maintain a certain degree of independence, but it must pay a certain proportion of resources to the court every year and must abide by the laws and regulations of the Dasheng Dynasty.
Some cultivation sects completely surrendered to the imperial court and maintained their independence on the surface. In fact, the power of the sect had been safely left aside and was controlled by the cultivators in the imperial court.
There are also some cultivation sects, although independent, but within the sect there are undercover agents from the imperial court who secretly carry out divisions and sabotage, causing internal chaos and even disintegration of the sect.
