Chapter 445 Establishing a Cave Heaven: Innate Spiritual Energy and Talismanic Treasure System [Seeking Monthly Tickets]

My own blessed land space is still a bit too low-level. It needs to be upgraded to a grotto-heaven to grow better, bear stronger power, and have a higher upper limit.

Moreover, the cave is also very important to Chen Hong in other aspects.

Moreover, Chen Hong had long coveted the Queen Mother's peaches, a rare and precious gift from heaven and earth.

If only I could plant one...

Bodhi Patriarch sighed and flicked his whisk.

"Fine, this will be the only time, and there will be no next time."

"Come here."

"Yes."

Soon, Patriarch Bodhi taught Chen Hong the [Art of the Pot Heaven].

The Art of the Pot Heaven: It can create spaces or caves, containing Mount Sumeru within a mustard seed. It can even hold the universe within a sleeve, and the heavens and earth within the palm of one's hand.

The newly created grotto can absorb energy from the void and grow continuously.

The grotto-heaven is attached to the vast universe, breathing with it, and can absorb massive amounts of void energy. Compared to blessed lands, it can also absorb some sparse inner chaotic energy to sustain its growth.

Chen Honghuan happily went to practice the art of the pot-shaped heaven.

On this day, Sun Wukong was expelled from the mountain by Patriarch Bodhi for showing off in front of people.

"When you go, you must not say that you are my disciple."

I know it as soon as you utter half a word.

I'll skin you alive, grind your bones to dust, and banish your soul to the deepest hell, so you'll never be able to rise again!

Chen Hong, who was just watching the show, never expected that he would also suffer an undeserved misfortune.

"Wuzhen, you are the same, go back to where you came from."

The Bodhi Patriarch's expression was serious; he was clearly not joking.

Chen Hong: ...

Although he felt helpless, Chen Hong knew that Patriarch Bodhi had made his decision and it was impossible to change it.

Therefore, Chen Hong had no choice but to obediently bid farewell to his ancestor.

They left Fangcun Mountain with Sun Wukong.

As soon as they stepped out of the mountain gate, Fangcun Mountain completely disappeared before Chen Hong and his companion's eyes, as if it had never existed in the world.

"It seems that Fangcun Mountain, as the Bodhi Patriarch's sacred site, must be a kind of small world, a place that transcends the heavens and earth."

Chen Hong made his own guesses as he and Sun Wukong left the Fangcun Mountain area and headed towards Huaguo Mountain in Dongsheng Shenzhou.

Together with Sun Wukong, they drove away the Demon King of Chaos, saving their monkey offspring and the blessed land of the Water Curtain Cave.

Chen Hong focused on his cultivation and ignored the monkey's nonsense about the Seven Demon Kings' sworn brotherhood.

It's all fake brotherhood; when the monkey is in trouble, the other six demon kings don't offer him any help.

Chen Hong was focused on cultivating the Golden Elixir and practicing the Art of the Heavenly Pot.

Soon, Chen Hong's Pot Heaven Technique reached its maximum proficiency level, successfully creating a grotto-heaven the size of the solar system.

In order to create a massive continent and four seas with dense matter, Chen Hong traveled through the void of the universe, plundering countless extraterrestrial planets to fill the continent.

It can be said that they scraped the earth three feet deep and filled it with the equivalent of millions or tens of millions of Earth's material to create a supercontinent.

This supercontinent covers an astonishing one-third the size of the solar system.

The four seas surrounding the supercontinent cover an area equal to one-third the size of the solar system.

Because water resources in the universe are far less than those on rocky planets, Chen Hong had to collect hydrogen and oxygen atoms and manually create water molecules to meet the needs of the vast ocean.

From afar within the grotto, the supercontinent and the four seas appear to be nothing more than a slightly thicker pancake or steamed bun.

At that moment, Chen Hong clearly felt how exaggerated the total amount of matter needed to fill a small solar system was.

The total amount of matter contained in the supercontinental structure is far beyond what the void structure of the universe can compare to.

The universe is vast and empty; the density of matter is too low.

Compared to the vast universe, the matter on planets and in galaxies is as insignificant as a sesame seed, extremely rare.

Chen Hong merely created a continent and a pancake of four seas that together accounted for 2/3 the size of the solar system, yet the total amount of matter consumed exceeded that of countless solar systems.

This is really scary.

In order to balance the gravity of the continental structure and prevent it from shrinking into a ball, Chen Hong had to adjust the gravitational laws of the cave and artificially create a living environment suitable for the supercontinent.

At this moment, Chen Hong realized that a sphere is the most suitable form for the aggregation of matter.

Under the influence of gravity, matter will generally gather into a sphere.

Spheres are more solid and natural than pancake-shaped continents, but they are also smaller in area.

For life forms, resources in continental structures are easier to extract and more efficiently utilized.

Resources with spherical structures are more difficult to mine deeply and have lower resource utilization rates.

Civilizations with continental structures tend to develop faster and prosper more in their early stages. However, civilizations with planetary structures, after overcoming the initial difficulties in technological accumulation, often have greater potential for development than those with continental structures.

Continental civilizations are rich in natural resources and readily available. However, after an initial period of prosperity, they often decline as resources become increasingly depleted, making it difficult to survive the final calamity and preventing the civilization from advancing to the next stage.

Some bizarre phenomena have emerged where archaeological resources and technologies are more advanced than those available today.

Civilizations with advanced planetary structures are more likely to develop untapped deep resources as they progress, leading to prosperity and advancement.

Archaeology was far less advanced than it is today, completely outclassed by the more advanced modern era.

In short, the mainland wasted abundant resources in the early stages and lacked the strength to sustain itself, while the planet suffered hardship and poverty in the early stages, accumulated strength and made great strides in the later stages.

Of course, the above deductions are all based on isolated systems.

If there are boundaries within boundaries, and stars beyond stars, then variables need to be introduced and the deductions re-examined; anything could happen.

After careful consideration, Chen Hong decided that in the early stages of the cave, he should focus on developing the mainland, vigorously cultivating agriculture, nurturing resources, and accumulating resources for production.

Later, we will explore the starry sky beyond the mainland, using each planet as a natural, independent system to evolve different civilizations and observe different possibilities and ways of thinking.

In some ways, it's like the primordial continent.

While the primordial continent is indeed the essence, the outer starry sky surrounding it is even more vast, with countless stars forming a grand celestial array that refines chaotic energy to nourish the world and the continent.

Then there are things like the Nine Netherworld and the Ruins of Return, which serve as recycling stations and cyclical systems to reduce consumption.

This is Chen Hong's initial vision for a perfected structure of heaven and earth.

It combines the advantages of the most common supercontinental structure and planetary cosmic structure to evolve and upgrade the cave heaven.

Within the cave, Chen Hong also forged 35 famous swords and spiritual treasures, setting up the [Void Divine Sword Opening Array] to transform massive amounts of void energy into primordial void energy and evolutionary essence, and to transform the sparse inner chaotic energy into sparse innate spiritual energy, thereby nurturing all things.

Although this innate spiritual energy is far inferior to the innate spiritual energy of the legendary primordial continent, it does not contain as many fragments of Dao principles and spiritual factors.

But it is indeed innate spiritual energy, with a natural charm, and its spiritual nourishment far surpasses that of other types of energy.

Chen Hong absorbed strands of innate spiritual energy, making his primordial spirit feel refreshed and clear, and his golden core became much more rounded, instantly boosting his cultivation efficiency to a higher level.

Within the cave space, the remaining one-third of the void was filled with a primordial ocean of void energy and wisps of innate spiritual energy.

A portion of the innate spiritual energy was absorbed by the 35 famous swords and spiritual treasures, enhancing their spirituality and essence, and increasing their efficiency in absorbing chaotic energy from the outside world.

A portion of it was integrated into the grand formation on the mainland, strengthening the formation while also spreading across the vast continent, nourishing all living things.

Chen Hong plundered some fertile soil, various fruit trees, and spiritual plants from Flower Fruit Mountain and transplanted them to his own cave continent.

It must be said that Huaguo Mountain, as the ancestral vein of the ten continents and the source of the three islands, has a rich variety of spiritual creatures.

Chen Hong plundered almost all species in the entire Huaguo Mountain region and migrated them to his own Dongtian Continent.

These species, nourished by the primordial fluid of evolution and the occasional sparse innate spiritual energy, have all exhibited evolutionary phenomena or atavistic phenomena with powerful bloodlines.

On the continent of Dongtian, fields of medicinal herbs and orchards have been cultivated.

Chen Hong also identified familiar mythical creatures such as the Golden Crow and the Divine Dragon.

They then created all sorts of humans to manage the farming.

They also created a large number of puppet robots and implemented large-scale production management.

Now all that's left is for the evolutionary elixir and spiritual energy to nurture and give birth to a batch of spirits like ginseng babies and earthworm gardeners to be responsible for farming.

Farming, farming, and damn farming.

This deep-seated obsession in Chen Hong's blood made him unable to resist planting something after acquiring a blessed land that belonged entirely to him.

No matter what I plant, my hands itch, and I still want to plant something.

Looking at the large spiritual fruits in the orchard, the vegetables in the vegetable garden, the spiritual rice in the paddy fields, and the various spiritual herbs in the medicinal herb fields, Chen Hong felt a unique sense of satisfaction and felt extremely comfortable.

The feeling of reaping the rewards is simply irresistible.

Especially when eating the spiritual grains, fruits, vegetables, and herbs they grow themselves, the taste is absolutely amazing.

These wonderful things, nourished by the primordial essence and innate spiritual energy, are many times more delicious and nourishing than the spiritual fruits of Flower Fruit Mountain.

Even on Chen Hong's cultivation level, it can promote and nourish him, accelerating the tempering and evolution of his Golden Core.

The leaves of many spiritual plants can also be used as materials for writing talismans.

For example, banana leaves, banyan leaves, mango leaves, mulberry leaves, and all kinds of leaves can be used to write talismans, and their effects and power are far greater than those of talismans drawn out of thin air by the Tongtian Lu.

After all, with a physical entity to which it resides, the spiritual energy is enhanced, and the effect is even better.

Even the leaves of the Fusang World Tree, which supports the sky in the center of the continent, can be used as writing material for talismans.

Chen Hong even developed a method for refining talismans using the leaves of the World Tree as materials.

It can incorporate many powerful supernatural abilities or magical treasures, making the power of talisman treasures much greater than that of talismans.

Chen Hong also created a one-time high-powered destruction talisman and a reusable multi-functional talisman.

With his terrifying accumulation of knowledge, he managed to create a complete [Talisman Treasure System].

After completing the initial construction of his own grotto, Chen Hong learned that Sun Wukong wanted to go to the Dragon Palace to ask for weapons.

So he immediately said he wanted to go with Sun Wukong so that they could look after each other.
