After a cultivator reached Spirit Transformation, they could cultivate by drawing upon the power of faith and incense offerings.
However, Soul Transformation stage cultivators held a lowly status in the Spirit Realm. Only Mahayana Venerables could rightfully partake of the human race's incense offerings.
Hua Yao sighed and continued.
"The Aristocratic Clans are powerful. They have taken ninety percent of the human race's faith and incense-offering power. Another Mahayana Stage Rogue Cultivator and I divide the remaining ten percent.
"But now that you are here, there is one more of us Rogue Cultivators. We will surely be able to fight for more faith and incense-offering power."
Xu Chunniang merely smiled without speaking. She had returned to the human race not to contend for this small amount of faith and incense offerings, but to shatter the Five Great Families' rule and oppression over humanity.
"What does President Hua Yao think of the Five Great Families?"
Hua Yao did not seem surprised that Xu Chunniang would ask this question. After all, back then, she had been forced to leave Heavenly God Academy because of those Aristocratic Clans' oppression, to the point where she could not remain among the human race at all.
"The Five Great Families are very strong. Their roots and branches are intertwined, and their status among the human race is deeply entrenched, making them exceedingly difficult to shake. In particular, the five Mahayana Venerables of the Five Great Families breathe in unison and share the same branch. They possess tremendous influence and power to rally others among the human race."
As she spoke, a trace of helplessness flashed through Hua Yao's eyes. In her younger, reckless days, she too had once thought of prying loose the Five Great Families with her own strength and changing the fate of humanity.
