"You could say that was a blunder."
This world is very stable, having never experienced an invasion, which is why the Transcendents are so suppressed.
The suppression is naturally because the "Path of Civilization" monopolizes all the resources, unwilling to share even a bit.
But if they did share, although they could establish a Transcendent system, the world's energy level would not rise so high.
In this way, if one day an invasion occurs, especially from a world of the same energy level, this world's collapse would be extremely quick.
The world is developing, but its immunity, own strength, etc., have not grown at all, like a burly man who has to stay in a sterile room.
So in Gu Shanhai's eyes, this world is like a piece of juicy meat, still without any means of resistance. If he didn't want to further uncover the secrets of the "Path of Civilization," he would've devoured this world the moment he found out the truth.
