After becoming invincible, start having fun in the world

Chapter 324 The Plantation of Rare and Precious Herbs, the Spiritual Energy Reactor

Jadeite Flowing Cloud Flower, Dust-Smoked Lingzhi, Dragon Bone Hollow Wood, Phoenix Tail Dragon Heart Grass, and Golden Xuanji Stone are five foundation-building spiritual treasures corresponding to the five elements of water, earth, wood, fire, and metal. The first four are biological types, while the last one is a special stone, somewhat similar to a gemstone.

It's not difficult to create biological treasures using cloning machines. Just make minor adjustments to the nutrient supply of the cloning machine, replacing fertilizers such as nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium with spiritual energy and other things native to the cultivation world.

The only problem is that since it's cloning, there must be a parent organism, but in this day and age, finding even one of those is incredibly difficult, like having ancestors whose graves are blessed with good fortune.

Chu Ke initially thought that he should let the immortals in his sect go out and raise them for a few days, and maybe he could bring back some of them, just like the popular game Travel Frog.

If all else fails, you can create your own cheat code.

Fortunately, something unexpected yet reasonable happened, allowing Chu Ke to complete 80% of his cultivation plan for rare and precious materials ahead of schedule.

This is all thanks to Ye Chen, who was thrown off the cliff by Xiao Yan. Under the influence of destiny, he accidentally entered a cave. After receiving the inheritance of the remnant soul of the big boss inside, he also inherited the rare and precious materials left behind by the boss. The variety of materials was excellent, and he even had a portion of the Phoenix Tail Dragon Heart Grass, which was extinct in the outside world.

The only problem is that, apart from the Golden Jade Stone, all these natural treasures have become like pickled vegetables over time.

However, none of this was a problem, since the protein had not been completely denatured. After beating Ye Chen up again and throwing him down, Chu Ke took these rare and precious materials and began to analyze their DNA. He successfully obtained the data of the biological treasures and began the first round of cultivation.

As for the Golden Jade Stone, it's even simpler. It's just a gemstone with added fantasy elements. Not to mention the Marvel universe, the artificial gemstone technology in the cyberpunk world is already quite mature. As long as the environmental conditions are right, the mass production of the Golden Jade Stone brought by Ye Chen, which is ground into crystal seeds, will be faster than other precious materials.

It is worth mentioning that after being beaten up again, Ye Chen actually no longer harbored any hostility towards the Qingyun Sect. Instead, he felt that the Qingyun Sect was actually a hidden and powerful sect, and that everything Chu Ke did was because he believed in Ye Chen and was testing him.

To be honest, when Chu Ke read this part of the mind-reading technique, he felt that Ye Chen was invincible.

That's fine too. I'll just assume that's how I see it. As long as he doesn't interfere with my game, I'll let him do whatever he wants. It'll also be a good opportunity to train the disciples in the sect.

While cultivating the precious materials, Chu Ke discovered that spiritual energy was truly an all-powerful thing. The cloning and maturation machine produced by combining cyberpunk and Marvel technology, when mixed with spiritual energy, could actually have an effect on the precious materials, allowing them to grow by about ten to fifty years' worth of material per day, and the precious materials directly entered the mass production stage.

It's practically a man-made version of the Palm Heaven Bottle.

The only problem is that while the treasures are growing rapidly, their demand for spiritual energy also increases exponentially. As long as their spiritual energy needs are met, it is not a dream to live for fifty years in a day.

But here's the problem: the location of the Qingyun Sect is quite far from the center of this world, and the concentration of spiritual energy is insufficient. Even with an underground spiritual vein, it can't withstand such absorption.

Xiao Yan has already reported that the concentration of spiritual energy has dropped drastically, even lower than in areas without spiritual veins, which has already affected the disciples' normal cultivation.

However, it wasn't a big problem. Chu Ke quickly solved the problem of spiritual energy supply and began to create a spiritual energy reactor for Unit-01.

The principle is simple—as everyone knows, the reason cultivators need rare and precious materials to refine elixirs is largely because the medicinal power of these elixirs can be refined into spiritual energy to increase their cultivation. Once you understand this principle, the supply of spiritual energy becomes very simple.

Based on the human body's meridian and dantian model, Chu Ke used technology from the technological age to create a reactor. Once activated, it is equivalent to ten thousand Foundation Establishment stage cultivators simultaneously refining medicinal power and producing spiritual energy.

The source of the medicine's power is also very simple. Through the computing power of the [Office], a super Qi-replenishing pill that can be refined using the precious material [heavy water] was calculated. Then, a huge well was opened to extract water from the underground of the Qingyun Sect, which was compressed into heavy water through a magic array and introduced into the production line to produce the super Qi-replenishing pill.

The combination of the two has created the Evolution Unit 1 Spirit Reactor, which boils water to produce spiritual energy, and everyone who uses it raves about its effectiveness.

It has basically solved the current demand for raising precious materials, and even has enough spiritual energy to build several spiritual energy rooms for the disciples of Qingyun Sect to cultivate, so that their cultivation speed is advancing by leaps and bounds.

Because the entire refining process is transparent and controllable, it is now possible to differentiate spiritual energy into the five elements for output, and output single-attribute spiritual energy such as [fire spiritual energy] and [water spiritual energy] to supply different spiritual roots.

Now that the "laboratory-made building material" has been successfully developed, the next step is to build a factory to achieve mass production.

Having rebuilt his foundation to reach the Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment stage, Chu Ke used the reactor to directly advance his cultivation to the Nascent Soul stage, becoming invincible in Qingyun Prefecture and several nearby prefectures. He then used precious materials as wealth and combined them with martial force to acquire dozens of sects in the surrounding area, pushing the Qingyun Sect's territory to the coast.

The reason it's by the sea is that if we were to formally develop a plantation-style cultivation of precious materials, one or two groundwater sources, or even just rivers, wouldn't be enough to produce that much spiritual energy. To have an unlimited supply, we would need either a great river like the Yellow River or the Yangtze River, which could rival the three thousand years of Chinese civilization, or the sea.

After his cultivation level improved, the reactor was upgraded to Unit 1, with an efficiency equivalent to ten thousand Nascent Soul stage cultivators simultaneously refining medicinal power to produce spiritual energy.

There might not even be five thousand Nascent Soul stage cultivators in the entire remote continent where the Qingyun Sect is located, so you can imagine how extraordinary this No. 1 reactor is.

The expanded Qingyun Sect was no longer limited to Xiao Yan and Mao San. It now had over a thousand Qi Refining stage cultivators, one hundred Foundation Establishment stage cultivators, three Golden Core stage cultivators, and only one Nascent Soul stage cultivator besides Chu Ke.

The cultivators' productivity was terrifying. In just half a month, several fully enclosed plantations covering thousands of acres were established and connected to three reactors at sea via pipelines, providing an unlimited supply of spiritual energy.

At the same time, all cultivators above the Qi Refining stage in the entire Qingyun Sect were retrained and upgraded to the Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment stage.

This has led to the training rooms around the plantation being constantly struck by lightning, with more and more people establishing their foundation in the Heavenly Dao, and the lightning tribulations sent down by the Heavenly Dao becoming increasingly powerful.

This is not a problem either. The harsh environment of cyberpunk, coupled with the need to immigrate to alien planets, has an extremely advanced technology tree for dealing with weather such as thunderstorms. It's just a matter of replacing the materials in the technology tree with those in the fantasy world. The Heavenly Tribulation Power Generation System was quickly put into use as well.

Now, unless some body-refining cultivators voluntarily enter the artificial lightning pool to refine their bodies, the Heavenly Tribulation can no longer pose a threat to the disciples of the Qingyun Sect.
