Just as Mo Hui was filled with emotion, Jiang Xing suddenly mustered his courage and approached Mo Hui.
With a hint of unwillingness and a glimmer of hope in his eyes, he asked Mo Hui, "Brother Mo Hui, if I don't have spirit power, is there really no way for me to cultivate?"
Upon hearing Jiang Xing's words, Mo Hui fell silent.
Is it absolutely impossible to cultivate without spirit power? Of course not. If one has a cultivation technique similar to Mysterious Heaven Skill, or some top-tier natural treasures, or even some other heaven-defying opportunities, it is possible for an ordinary person to gain the ability to cultivate.
But how could an ordinary person possibly come into contact with such things? For ordinary people, achieving these requirements is infinitely more difficult than directly awakening innate spirit power.
Even the current Mo Hui cannot enable someone without innate spirit power to cultivate.
Seeing Mo Hui remain silent for a long time, the light in Jiang Xing's eyes dimmed further, and he already had a guess in his heart.
Seeing this, Su Yuntao on the side also sighed and said, "Little friend, I can understand your feelings, but it is an ironclad rule that one cannot cultivate without spirit power. There has never been a person who could cultivate without innate spirit power."
"Thud~~"
Mo Hui's silence and Su Yuntao's advice directly shattered Jiang Xing's hope, making him unable to hold on any longer, and his legs collapsed to the ground.
Then, two lines of glistening tears rolled down from Jiang Xing's eyes, and this strong child also began to sob.
In this era ruled by nobles, not being able to cultivate without innate spirit power meant that his future was already set in stone, and all his past dreams now turned into bubbles.
"Sigh~"
Seeing this scene, Mo Hui couldn't help but shake his head and let out a light sigh.
In the current Douluo Continent, there is indeed nothing an ordinary person can do when faced with such a situation; they can only accept their fate. Not everyone is Tang San, who has a cultivation technique like Mysterious Heaven Skill that doesn't require innate spirit power to cultivate.
Wait… cultivation technique!
Suddenly, a flash of light streaked across Mo Hui's mind.
Perhaps, he could try to create a cultivation technique similar to Mysterious Heaven Skill, a cultivation technique that could influence innate spirit power, a cultivation technique that could allow everyone to cultivate!
But then, Mo Hui shook his head with a self-deprecating smile.
Cultivation techniques are not that easy to create. If it were just a cultivation technique exclusive to himself, Mo Hui could do it with his own abilities. But wanting everyone to be able to cultivate, and also to be able to influence innate spirit power, the difficulty is no longer on the same level.
Especially in a World like Douluo Continent, where even true meditation methods may not exist, it is too difficult, too difficult to create such a cultivation technique!
Afterward, after bidding farewell to Mo Hui, Su Yuntao left Jiang Rong Village with the awakening stone. His time was tight, and he still had to go to other villages to help others awaken their Spirits.
Soon after Su Yuntao left, a knight riding a tall horse and wearing chainmail arrived at the entrance of Jiang Rong Village, shouting inside, "People of Jiang Rong Village, why aren't you coming out quickly?"
The knight's voice was loud, and soon the villagers of Jiang Rong Village came to the village entrance.
Seeing everyone arrive, the knight lowered his head slightly and scanned them, saying, "Who among you is the village chief?"
"I am, I am. May I ask what brings Sir Knight here this time?"
Hearing the knight call him, the village chief of Jiang Rong Village quickly stepped forward and asked.
The knight said, "Your taxes for this year are due. The lord has ordered me to collect them."
"We have already prepared the head tax, please Sir Knight, count it!"
The village chief of Jiang Rong Village said with a fawning smile as he handed a small bag to the knight.
The knight weighed the bag, then took out some gold coins from inside to look at them, nodded, and said, "The amount is correct, but you need to prepare for the subsequent taxes. I will come to collect them in three days. This year's tax collection time has been moved up."
"Ah! This… Sir Knight, can you give us a little more time?"
Upon hearing the knight's words, the village chief of Jiang Rong Village was dumbfounded. Although one type of tax was nothing to them, all these taxes combined were not a small sum, and it would be difficult to gather them in a short time.
The knight glanced at the village chief of Jiang Rong Village and said, "This is the lord's order."
Hearing this, the village chief of Jiang Rong Village stumbled back a few steps, somewhat paralyzed. How could they gather so much money in just three days?
"How much are the subsequent taxes? I'll pay them for them!"
At this moment, Mo Hui, who had been watching from the side for a while, walked out and said to the knight.
"Who is causing trouble…"
The knight frowned, about to scold, but then he felt the unique aura emanating from Mo Hui and saw the spirit tool at his waist. He immediately smiled and said, "So it's a Spirit Master, I apologize for not noticing you earlier, Sir Spirit Master. The amount of their subsequent taxes is…"
After hearing the number reported by the other party, Mo Hui nodded, took out the corresponding gold coins from his spirit tool, and threw them to the other party.
After receiving Mo Hui's gold coins, the knight still wanted to invite Mo Hui to be a guest at their lord's house, but Mo Hui naturally refused. He had no time to waste with the lord of a small place.
At the same time, Jiang Xing in the crowd looked at the knight who was so arrogant in front of them, yet behaved like this in front of Mo Hui, and his heart was greatly shocked.
It turned out that Spirit Masters were even nobler than he had imagined, but unfortunately, he would never be able to become a Spirit Master in this life.
After the knight left, Mo Hui looked at the villagers around him who showed grateful expressions, and he also sighed.
He had also lived on his own for a period of time and knew the situation of the common people at the bottom of the Douluo Continent.
Did the common people of Douluo Continent live poorly? In his view as a transmigrator, they certainly lived poorly, but if truly placed in ancient society, the common people of Douluo Continent might actually live quite well.
This was not because the national system of Douluo Continent was so good, but because the huge productivity brought by Spirit Masters was far beyond what ancient societies in reality could compare to.
A food system Spirit Elder could maintain the food for five hundred soldiers, whereas if these five hundred soldiers were in ancient times, at least several thousand people would be needed to grow food to support them.
And many tasks that required a lot of manpower in ancient times could also be handled by Spirit Masters, who would only complete them more excellently.
With many deadly corvées and taxes reduced, the common people of Douluo Continent naturally lived much better, and cases of starvation or exhaustion were rare.
But that was all.
Ultimately, Douluo Continent was still just a medieval society that had only recently abolished slavery on the surface. Although the presence of Spirit Masters meant that the common people were not as miserable, it was impossible for their living standards to be very high.
