Wizards in the world of cultivation

Chapter 186 Plundering Xiao Qian
Of course, the issue of global relocation is quite easy to resolve if one possesses absolute power.

But there is still one crucial issue: the sustenance of these creatures.

It's important to understand that the secret realm of space is different from the world; it doesn't have a strong self-circulation ability, nor does it have the ability to generate spiritual energy on its own.

Within the secret space, all the spiritual energy was brought in by Su You from the outside.

However, as the number of cultivators entering the secret realm continues to increase, the consumption of spiritual energy becomes astronomical.

For example, in a previous microcosm, although the world's grade was low, the total number of cultivators was not small, approximately one million.

This number of cultivators is not very large, and their overall cultivation level is even lower, with most of them being cultivators at the Qi Refining stage.

Therefore, there is no problem in providing temporary support for these cultivators. Moreover, although the spiritual energy consumed will not enter the cycle, it will still remain in the spatial secret realm, so there is no loss for Su You.

Once the secret realm of space truly transforms into a world, all these remaining entities will be transformed back into spiritual energy under the influence of the world's power, entering a new cycle.

However, the Lesser Thousand Worlds are different. Their area alone is tens or hundreds of times larger than that of the Microcosm. In addition, the Lesser Thousand Worlds have a higher quality, so one can imagine the number of cultivators within them.

According to statistics, in the small world that Su You has now moved to, apart from the millions of cultivators who died in the previous war and the hundreds of thousands who died because they disobeyed orders, there are still nearly 30 million cultivators.

The proportion of cultivators at the Foundation Establishment and Golden Core stages is much higher than in the Microcosm World.

Even if Su You dispersed these cultivators to various worlds, it would still be difficult to support them.

Moreover, within the secret realm, it's not just cultivators who need to use spiritual energy; there are also demonic beasts, spiritual herbs, and other spiritual plants that grow there.

Even with the large amount of spiritual liquid that Su You had accumulated, it would be difficult to sustain the use of spiritual energy in these secret realms for an extended period.

Fortunately, Su You completely emptied an entire world this time, essentially relocating some of its resources. Even without spiritual energy, the resources he moved could barely sustain the world for several decades.

However, in any case, these cultivators who moved into the secret realm of space will surely fall into an even darker era.

Fortunately, Su You has already sent some envoys to appease those major sects and forces, so that their spiritual energy supply can be maintained, thus preventing too much chaos within the secret realm.

As for those independent cultivators, Su You did not push them to the brink. As long as a cultivator had a skill, good talent, or combat talent, he would also take them under his command and ensure that they had the spiritual energy to cultivate.

Regardless, the number of cultivators in these secret realms will decrease significantly after this upheaval, and even the sects will gradually reduce their recruitment of disciples, since the spiritual energy provided by Su You is not unlimited.

Besides their own cultivation, those sects also need to cultivate spiritual herbs, spiritual fields, and so on.

The golden age of cultivation will not return until the spiritual energy within the secret realm is restored.

Faced with this situation, Su You was powerless to do anything but repair the Dream Butterfly Mirror as soon as possible, and then return to the Vast Ocean World and enter the True Dragon Secret Realm to temporarily solve his problems.

Within the True Dragon Secret Realm, there are quite a few high-level spiritual veins, and the spiritual energy generated daily by a single high-level spiritual vein is equivalent to that of thousands upon thousands of low-level spiritual veins.

With so many high-level spiritual veins, it would be enough to replace the problem of not having a real world within the Wizard Tower, and could even take those spatial secret realms to the next level.

but……

Su You still has some worries about the True Dragon Secret Realm. It's not that he's worried about An Ling'er's safety, as Ling'er is unlikely to be in danger even in the entire Canghai Great World.

His concern was whether the True Dragon Secret Realm would be leaked, which would mean the loss of this excellent secret base, a huge loss for him.

After all, high-level spiritual veins are quite rare in the vast world of Canghai. Only powerful forces with corresponding strength can control and possess seventh- or eighth-level spiritual veins.

While these spiritual veins are not as valuable as the Heavenly Dragon corpses and treasure vaults that Su You and his group obtained, they are still priceless.

Shaking his head, he realized it was too early to think about this. He should deal with things here as soon as possible, repair the Dream Butterfly Mirror, and return to the Vast Ocean World to find out the outcome.

Moreover, if the Dream Butterfly Mirror is repaired, Su You can find another way even without the True Dragon Secret Realm.

After all, a ninth-tier magic weapon is still very powerful.

The only flaw is that the spirit inside has perished.

Su You has now transferred the relevant artifact spirits to the Refining Academy for research.

His idea was to transfer the tower spirit into the Dream Butterfly Mirror and make it the spirit of the Dream Butterfly Mirror, which would kill two birds with one stone.

As for the future use of the Dream Butterfly Mirror, it will definitely be integrated into the Wizard Tower. After all, the Dream Butterfly Mirror's Dream Butterfly Space's auxiliary cultivation effect is the best magic weapon for Su You to cultivate talents.

The Wizard Tower will also be his cradle for cultivating all kinds of immortal cultivators and wizards, and Dream Butterfly Mirror definitely needs to be integrated into it.

In particular, the Dream Butterfly Mirror is most compatible with his cultivation technique, the Dream Butterfly Heavenly Scripture, and his innate Mirage Realm. When integrated into his natal spiritual treasure, it can bring out the full potential of his cultivation technique and innate abilities.

Speaking of the Mirage Realm, its evolution speed is extremely fast now, and its internal space area is already far greater than that of the fifth-order Mirage Dragon.

Although Su You did not collect souls in the Yun'an Realm, each interdimensional battlefield brought him many high-quality cultivator souls, which was very helpful for the expansion of the Mirage Realm.

The Mirage Realm can now influence fifth-tier experts, who are at the Nascent Soul stage. This is why he has so many Nascent Soul level subordinates.

Most of these Nascent Soul cultivators were subdued from those minor worlds, and many other Nascent Soul cultivators were also easily controlled.

This is also why Su You was able to quickly relocate worlds one by one.

Without the cooperation of these indigenous high-ranking officials, it would have been extremely difficult to relocate the world so quickly. Even so, there were still too many cultivators who were unwilling to leave, but under the baptism of blood, they had no choice but to obediently cooperate.

Moreover, Su You's help in relocating wasn't exactly harming them, since he was about to destroy these worlds.

If we stay here any longer, the end result will be certain death.

Entering the secret space within the Wizard Tower at least allows one to survive. While one's cultivation may no longer improve, one can still live for a longer period of time.

After the world had largely relocated, Su You arrived high above the Lesser Thousand Worlds, retrieved the Dream Butterfly Mirror, activated the array, and began attacking without restraint. Although countless lives still existed on the continents and in the oceans, but…

Heaven and earth are not benevolent, and all things are dogs.

Whether one is a cultivator or a wizard, it is the cruelest path, a path of natural selection and survival of the fittest.

As a blinding light blazed forth, a thunderous roar echoed across the entire continent.

A massive beam of light swept across the continent, shattering it completely and even penetrating deep into the world.

Endless magma erupted, and the breaking of the continent caused the surrounding oceans to begin to fluctuate dramatically.

The spirit ships, already anchored in various locations around the world, also activated the arrays that drew in and absorbed the world's origin at the same time.

The destruction of the world's interior has a tremendous impact on the world itself, and this impact will cause huge fluctuations in the world, thereby revealing a large amount of the world's origin.

This origin of the world is undetectable and unheard of. Only those at the level of Integration or above, that is, above the seventh rank, can sense some subtleties and collect this origin of the world.

However, wizards have their own methods for collecting the origin, especially those low-level wizards who do not have the ability to collect the world's origin, but can use the power of wizard arrays to collect and condense the world's origin.

The origin of the world is arguably the most precious treasure, possessing almost omnipotent properties. It has optimal effects for whatever it is used for, such as enhancing cultivation, breaking through bottlenecks, healing injuries, and even improving the power and grade of magical artifacts and elixirs.

Su You naturally wanted to collect more. If there were any left over after restoring the Dream Butterfly Mirror, he could use them for cultivation or even as a treasure to break through bottlenecks.

Unlike An Ling'er, who didn't have any bottlenecks due to her constitution, Su You did. It wasn't that he could keep improving by taking pills that increased his magical power or by constantly cultivating; he would always get stuck at a certain bottleneck.

Therefore, the origin of the world had a great influence on him.

Even if there are still many left over, they can be used to enhance the power and foundation of one's natal spirit treasure.

The Lingbao Jing (灵宝经) states that the origin of the world is one of the best treasures for enhancing magical artifacts.

The sky was filled with dazzling light, but it brought only darkness to those below.

Fortunately, most of the dead were demons or sea beasts, so Su You didn't feel too much psychological pressure.

I've killed countless monsters and sea creatures before; now, it's just a matter of increasing that number by hundreds of thousands.

boom! boom! boom!
Just as Su You was wreaking havoc, the spirit ship floating in the void began to explode.

This wasn't an attack from the demonic beasts below. Su You had arranged for Nascent Soul level cultivators and even Deity Transformation level cultivators on those spirit ships, each wielding the Dream Butterfly Mirror, to rush to the scene in time should a Deity Transformation level demonic beast appear.

The reason the spirit ship exploded was because its grade was too low and it couldn't withstand the pressure of the world's origin.

After all, the origin of the microcosm is far superior in quality to that of the microcosm.

Although Su You possesses an array that can collect the world's origin, the array's carrier must be extremely sturdy; otherwise, the collected world's origin will be crushed, causing it to dissipate again.

"Oh no!" Su You frowned.

Most of the spirit ships floating in the void are only of the third rank, and they really can't withstand this kind of pressure.

If they all explode, it would mean that this plan to collect the origin of the world has failed.

After all, the origin of the minor world is not so easily revealed, and only during times of global turmoil like now will some of it be leaked out.

Once the global turmoil subsides and the world returns to stability, it will be much more difficult to steal the origin again.

Even if he attacks again, the damage will not be as great as this time, and the amount of essence leaked will not be as much.

"Use the essence of the nascent soul to stabilize the spirit ship!" Su You commanded.

There's no other way; we have to sacrifice the potential of these Nascent Soul cultivators now. It's too late to rush to build fourth-tier spirit ships.

The essence of the nascent soul is the culmination of a cultivator's lifelong cultivation, and it inherently has a strengthening effect on magical artifacts.

With the infusion of a large amount of Nascent Soul essence, these spirit ships quickly stabilized again and continued to absorb and transform the unseen world origin around them.

Su You also quickly sent people to deliver pills to the various cultivators, and continued to send out a batch of Nascent Soul cultivators for rotation.

In this way, these Nascent Soul cultivators will not suffer too much loss, and they will have a chance to recover in the future.

This operation was still due to Su You's lack of consideration, and it was also a last-minute decision. These third-tier spirit ships were also hastily made.

Forging a fourth-tier spirit ship is not easy, especially since there aren't many fourth-tier weapon refiners within the academy.

There are many third-tier weapon refiners, so the refinement of third-tier spirit ships is relatively simple and quick. With sufficient materials, more than a thousand spirit ships were completed in just over ten years.

Fortunately, this problem isn't too serious. Su You has a large number of Nascent Soul cultivators under his command. With several rotations and some pills prepared for each of them, they can still hold out for a while.

Regarding the issue of the spirit ship, Su You quickly handed it over to the faculty and students of the academy, asking them to come up with a solution as soon as possible.

It's impossible to reforge a fourth-tier spirit ship. There are simply too few fourth-tier weapon refiners, and it would take far too long to forge a thousand fourth-tier spirit ships.

This shortcoming is easy to improve, but the spirit ship's pressure resistance is too weak to withstand the pressure of the array and the world's origin. It can still be improved in a targeted manner.

Three days and three nights passed. On the spirit ship, the Nascent Soul cultivators were pale-faced and trembling with weakness.

Fortunately, the world fluctuations have basically ended, and Su You has brought them to a stop. He then immediately sent them back to the Wizard Tower, providing them with various restorative elixirs to help them recover quickly.
