Building a sect from scratch.

Chapter 415 Fang Xianyu got arrogant

Ordinary players cannot obtain rocket launchers.

After all, even if ordinary mortals in the Guixu Realm are physically stronger than ordinary people on Blue Star, they are still just ordinary people and cannot resist the destructive power of large-scale psionic weapons.

While there's no record of players killing innocent civilians in the Guixu Realm so far, such incidents cannot be addressed by relying on players' own morality. Even if accounts are banned afterward, that's a punishment, not a preventative measure.

Therefore, controlling psionic weapons is essentially controlling players and their "curiosity".

"If we intend to use psionic thermal weapons as our primary means of force..."

Elder Lu Ying's face showed a rare hint of worry as he said, "We will inevitably have to loosen the controls... but if we loosen the controls, it will be very difficult to control everyone's behavior..."

Fang Xianyu was also worried about this, but she still expressed her opinion: "In fact, in the Guixu Realm, many magical treasures and spiritual artifacts are no less effective than rocket launchers. You could even say that 'Truth,' in terms of its operating logic, is more like a spiritual artifact than a simple industrial product of Earth. Isn't that why you prefixed them with 'spiritual energy' and categorized them separately?"

Ultimately, Fang Xianyu still hoped that the players would be more "martial and virtuous." After all, if they were too restrained, how could she complete her plan to purge the carnivores of the Guixu Realm?

Elder Lu Ying fell silent upon hearing this.

Indeed, whether it's rocket artillery or other psionic weapons developed by everyone, their core power source is inseparable from the concept of "spirit" or "psionic energy." Even in the research journal *Spiritual Energy*, founded by Professor Wang in the Guixu Realm some time ago, it was mentioned that the Guixu Realm objectively cannot bypass "spiritual energy," and it boldly hypothesized that the essence of "spiritual energy" is an unobservable, non-renewable, and non-disappearing non-material entity. Although other laboratories have raised questions and listed other conjectures, regardless of the viewpoint, everyone generally agrees that there is no situation in the Guixu Realm without spiritual energy.

Moreover, after numerous tests, when applying industrial technology from Earth to weapons, test subjects using psionic energy as their primary energy source often demonstrated superior performance. For this reason, weapons primarily powered by psionic energy are now uniformly classified as "psionic weapons." Rocket launchers like "Truth" in the Void Realm are psionic thermal weapons, not modern thermal weapons from Earth.

Compared to the magical artifacts and spirit weapons of the Guixu Realm, the biggest advantages of these psionic weapons are their low manufacturing cost, simple structure, and mass-producible industrial design. However, in terms of destructive power, they are actually inferior to the high-level magical artifacts and spirit weapons of the traditional Guixu Realm.

In other words, as players' cultivation and level increase, the map that Fang Xianyu opens up also becomes larger and larger. Sooner or later, there will be players with incredible luck who obtain heaven-rank magic weapons or spiritual artifacts. When that time comes, it will be like elementary school students resisting a nuclear bomb - they will dare to do anything!

Rather than waiting until then for Fang Xianyu to be overwhelmed cleaning up the mess left by numerous troublesome players, it's better to cultivate their habits early on, establish a concept that satisfies her, and more importantly, identify and address any shortcomings in advance during the testing of the restrictions she creates—Jun Chou, the AI ​​of the Guixu Realm comparable to an intelligent brain, is indeed useful as a GM, but we can't rely on him entirely…

Fang Xianyu even went so far as to offer more privileges to people from the Chinese side, so that she could be relieved of the heavy workload of cleaning up after the players...

After a long pause, Elder Lu Ying tentatively asked, "Then what are the sect leader's plans?" Fang Xianyu replied, "Hasn't the construction of Luban City, which you designed in the Ten Thousand Mountains, already begun? Several industrial production lines have also been set up... I know that industry is a behemoth that devours people, so I will supply limited quantities of spiritual energy weapons from the sect merchants. Using the Arctic Flow Continent as a base, we will expand eastward and open new battlefield activities to make up for the huge shortage of industrial population."

Elder Lu Ying had long since memorized the somewhat inaccurate map of the Guixu Realm, so he naturally knew the place Fang Xianyu was referring to. He just hadn't expected the sect leader to expand so quickly: "The East? Tianying Continent?"

Fang Xianyu nodded: "And Penglai Island. These two places are closest to Zhongzhou, and their area is much smaller than Zhongzhou, so naturally they should be included first."

Elder Lu Ying asked curiously, "Why not unify the Central Continent first?"

“The Central Continent is too large, with numerous sects and factions, and it is not only inhabited by humans but also by many other races. It is neither easy nor suitable for unification,” Fang Xianyu said, too embarrassed to admit that the two sects she held the most grudge against were the Misty Immortal Sect of Tianying Continent and the Penglai Sect of Penglai Island. She could only explain by avoiding the main point: “The Misty Immortal Sect, the largest power in Tianying Continent, is currently in internal strife, making it the best time to do so.”

Elder Lu Ying felt that this reason was not enough. He thought that this person, who was suspected to be from the former Chinese nation and was now the Taiyin God of the Guixu Realm, was a novice in strategy and tactics. So he kindly advised, "The Piaomiao Golden Immortal of the Piaomiao Immortal Sect is seriously injured and has lost the Liquan Immortal Lord. His strength has been greatly reduced, which is still manageable. However, the Penglai Sect is extensive and has more than a dozen immortals and gods. It is one of the top forces in the entire Guixu Realm. It is probably a very tough nut to crack."

"The Misty Immortal Sect can be spared, but the Penglai Sect cannot. Although Immortal Lord Liquan has perished, his wife and her entire lineage can be won over; we can recruit some and kill others. After destroying the Penglai Sect, we can then deal with the scum within the Misty Immortal Sect. As for the Penglai Sect, it's quite powerful..."

Fang Xianyu said with a sinister smile, "What we need is its strength. Only by quickly and decisively eliminating it can we become a force to be reckoned with and truly establish ourselves in the Guixu Realm!"

Elder Lu Ying opened her mouth, wanting to say a few more words of advice, but looking at Fang Xianyu's confident face, she helplessly shut her mouth—what I meant was that I was afraid you couldn't win! She planned to talk about this situation when she went offline and had a meeting with the project team later, to see if there was any way to make this Sect Master Fang pull back from the brink, at least to develop first before going out to fight?
Elder Lu Ying couldn't understand why Fang Xianyu was so confident, and Fang Xianyu...

Fang Xianyu is really arrogant!

We have to expand!

Just now, after the pioneering team of the "I Love Farming" community under the "Flower Country" regime accidentally destroyed a Demon Lord in the Ruins of Return, her already abundant system energy points skyrocketed! They tripled in an instant! From tens of thousands of points, they surged to nearly six figures!

Therefore, she specifically estimated her future energy points income, and combined it with her cultivation level which was close to that of a Nascent Soul cultivator, along with a firepower coverage tactic, it was not impossible for her to clash with the Penglai Sect.

Even if she couldn't win in a direct confrontation, she had plenty of system energy points to squander, making it no problem to kill a few immortals or even establish her authority against the Penglai God!
