It's simply that those resources were spent too quickly; they were all squandered before they even had a chance to be used.

Su Chen looked at Jiang Li's expression and immediately laughed.

He Xingyao did leave behind a lot of things back then, but that couldn't stop Su Chen from spending them without restraint.

If this pace continues, even with a great deal of what was left over from back then, it won't be able to sustain us.

"You know that too?"

There are too many cultivators now. If we don't use resources sparingly, it won't be long before everyone runs out.

If you don't become a householder, you don't know that firewood, rice, oil and salt are expensive.

With just a word from Su Chen, Jiang Li had to pull out a large quantity of resources from the warehouse.

They are producing almost nothing now, relying entirely on what He Xingyao left behind back then to keep going.

"It's alright. The concentration of spiritual energy in the world has increased significantly, and we can now start cultivating many things ourselves."

Only resources that have been spent can now be called resources.

Rather than letting them gather dust in the warehouse, we should make the most of them.

Su Chen always felt a sense of crisis, having suffered quite a few losses when facing these extraterrestrial creatures back then.

Moreover, each time extraterrestrial creatures infiltrate, they find it very difficult to detect their presence.

By the time they realized something was wrong, the extraterrestrial creatures had already passed through the most difficult period.

Even though Su Chen now possesses methods sufficient to target extraterrestrial creatures, he dares not deploy them on a large scale.

The incubation period of extraterrestrial beings is enough for them to control a large number of people. If they expose their methods too early, they are likely to be cracked by the extraterrestrial beings.

The only option is to continuously improve reconnaissance methods and try to pinpoint the enemy's location as early as possible after they sneak in.

"well.

It's good that you know what's going on; I'm just reminding you.

"How is Hua Jingyun doing?"

"It's the same as always; none of those demonic cultivators dare to object."

The level of the demonic beasts is still a bit lacking; they haven't met your requirements yet.

"It's okay, there's no rush for now."

Chapter 166 [Unwavering Perseverance]

As for monsters, that's enough to maintain world stability.

The reason why Jiang Li was constantly pushing forward the improvement of the monsters was because of this.

Su Chen was actually preparing for the world behind those statues.

With the presence of the guardians, the two sides can coexist peacefully for the time being, but no one can predict what will happen in the future.

Once those demonic beasts rush out, they might not be able to stop them with their current abilities.

"Take a look at these first. Many areas within the four countries can be utilized."

Su Chen took out an exceptionally detailed map.

He personally visited every single point on the plan.

Resources have been consumed in large quantities, and we definitely need to find ways to replenish them.

"Cultivation of spiritual plants? Derivation from mineral veins? Really?"

Jiang Li looked at the locations marked on the map and looked up at Su Chen with some surprise.

Cultivating spiritual plants is understandable, but if they can even grow mineral veins, that sounds a bit unbelievable.

What they lack now, such as talismans and ritual implements, is most importantly the lack of raw materials, namely ores.

The world has just begun to recover, and the quality of many mineral veins is not yet up to usable standards.

If Su Chen's move works, it will be fantastic news for them.

"When have I ever broken a promise I made?"

Go ahead and do it. If you have any problems, feel free to contact me anytime.

We conducted some experiments on mineral vein derivation back then, and the results seemed quite good.

However, that was only possible because of high-quality ore veins. Su Chen wasn't sure what level of development those ore veins could achieve with their current quality.

Jiang Li left excitedly with the map, leaving Su Chen alone in the courtyard.

I'm getting a little bored.

Based on the refresh cycle, the golden talent should have appeared long ago, so why hasn't it been generated yet?

"Could it be that my luck has run out?"

Su Chen looked helplessly at the newly generated character, which was still just a blank slate.

The brief introduction doesn't reveal much useful information.

"Little one, how's your luck?"

"How about you get me a new character?"

Su Chen picked up the little white fox. This creature was much larger than a regular fox, about the size of a small dog.

"Try?"

Su Chen, holding the little fox in his grip, casually selected the next game.

Every world is a reflection of your true life.

Every choice you make will influence your future.

[Number of simulation attempts remaining today: 0]

[Currently in a random world—]

[Loading identity—]

[Identity confirmed - Down-on-his-luck Taoist Priest]

[Talent already extracted: Unyielding]

[Unwavering Resilience (Gold): Oppression is your driving force; the stronger the suppression, the stronger the resistance.]

[Where one passes through a thousand mountains, there are only layer upon layer of peaks; beyond these peaks, there is no end in sight.]

[If the level of oppression exceeds the current limit, and the individual survives, they will have a period of explosive growth.]

Fight on!

"They actually withdrew the money?"

Su Chen was stunned for a moment when he saw that long-lost talent.

He had no hope at first, but to his surprise, he actually managed to pull it out.

"Perseverance?"

Does this description mean that once the suppression is broken, one can experience a period of rapid progress?

Right?

"How miserable must one be to have this kind of talent?"

Thinking of this, Su Chen hesitated for a moment.

Based on the patterns summarized earlier, characters with golden talents are likely to be the pinnacle figures of their era.

Even if they aren't the main characters, they will definitely leave a lasting impression.

Just like Lu Wuyai and Daosheng.

"Want to take another look?"

Looking at the dazzling talent, Su Chen still couldn't bring himself to choose the next game.

He had waited far too long for this talent to appear.

The world is relatively stable now, but there are many hidden crises. Su Chen needs a golden talent.

"Let's give it a try first, and if it doesn't work, we'll just give up."

Su Chen scratched his head and finally decided to enter the game.

"What talent should I bring?"

Su Chen currently possesses three gold-tier talents, but can only choose one to bring into the game.

"With a clear and discerning sword mind, one can see clearly whether someone is a god or a demon in a single thought..."

These three talents represent different abilities: one is exceptional swordsmanship, another is the power of disguise, and the last represents strong observation and training abilities.

Su Chen glanced at the description of perseverance again, but ultimately chose to use the description of keen insight.

It's uncertain what will happen to this character, so it's better to focus on cultivation as soon as possible.

[In the middle age of the Feng Dynasty, the world was at its peak, a hundred schools of thought contended, and all things flourished.]

You were born under the jurisdiction of the Taoist sect, and your name is Zhang Yang.

The first ten years of life are carefree and unrestrained.

[Since you joined the Taoist sect, you've only been a lowly servant, but the sect has a strong atmosphere, and the Taoist masters have taken good care of you. Although life has been somewhat difficult, you haven't found it unbearable.]

[For you, the vastness of the world and the wonders of the universe are less appealing than the shrewish rants of the Taoist priests next door.]

[Being a member of the Taoist sect, demons dare not invade. Your only daily worry is probably how to memorize the Taoist scriptures.]

Many of those who entered the Daoist sect at the same time as you have already passed the sect's tests and become higher-level beings.

Although their status is still far lower than that of the Taoist priests, compared to you, they no longer need to do menial work to make a living. Instead, they have the opportunity to represent the Taoist sect, step out of the mountains, and see the vast world outside.

The stories I read in books and the stories told by people I used to know every day, though similar, are completely different.

The things they describe make you yearn for them even more.
