Primordial Era: Innate gourd vine, self-dismemberment

Chapter 46 Discussion Methods

Thirdly, the merit he gained in these five eons is almost comparable to the merit he gained in the twenty eons he cleared and repaired the battlefield of the three races.

If his cultivation level were at the peak of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, this merit would definitely be enough to raise his cultivation level to the early stage of the Primordial Golden Immortal realm. This shows how much merit he obtained and how valuable it was.

Therefore, the gains of Yuanlun over these five Yuanhui were indeed greater than their previous cleanup and repair of the battlefields of the three races.

"I have indeed gained a lot in these five Yuanhui, but I have also consumed a lot! I used up a full third of the original power accumulated by melting the corpses of all races with my own Great Dao to clean up and repair the battlefield of the three races."

"If we continue to use it like this, it will be completely exhausted in eleven or twelve eons at most."

"Even if we take turns with you, changing shifts every five cycles, it will be completely exhausted in at most thirty or forty cycles."

"At that time, how should we continue to repair the ley lines of the western continent?"

"Relying solely on our own strength? While it's not impossible, the repair efficiency is terribly slow. The repair of the Western Continent will most likely turn out to be a losing proposition instead of the currently advantageous one."

As the saying goes, "Preparation is the key to success, and lack of preparation leads to failure." We should now discuss and devise a set of rules and methods!

Upon hearing this, Yuan Jie and Yuan Ling fell silent, lost in thought. After a long period of contemplation, neither of them had any ideas.

The reason they are so efficient at repairing the ley lines of the western continent is because they have used the primordial power they had accumulated before.

Cracks and fissures appear in the earth's veins? They all have the means to use a large amount of primordial power to create mysteries of creation, allowing the cracks and fissures in the earth's veins to heal themselves quickly and spontaneously.

They want the earth veins to grow and extend, but the earth vein's original power is insufficient. They also have ways to use a large amount of original power to replenish the earth vein's original power.

However, if they lack the source power and rely solely on their own strength, although they can divide their own power to do the same thing in place of the source power.

However, if they expend too much energy by dividing their resources, they will also become weak.

Although it is not as difficult to recover to their peak condition as it is to suffer a Dao injury, without a large number of rare and precious materials, innate spiritual fruits, and pills, relying solely on absorbing innate spiritual energy, it may take them one or two Yuanhui to recover once.

When they repair the earth's veins, their primordial power is consumed extremely quickly. If they continue at the previous rate of consumption, it wouldn't even take ten thousand years before their power is almost completely depleted, requiring them to pause and recover.

Wouldn't the speed of repairing the earth's veins drop to one-twentieth of what it used to be?

Although they can also cultivate and comprehend the Dao during this period, the efficiency of cultivating and comprehending the Dao while repairing the earth's veins and restoring their own depleted power is definitely not half that of cultivating and comprehending the Dao in isolation.

Including other gains, it's highly likely that the losses will outweigh the gains.

However, there is still a problem. Absorbing innate spiritual energy to recover one's own losses is fine if it happens once, twice, or even a few times.

However, if they do this too many times and absorb too much innate spiritual energy from the primordial world, either the merit they gain will be greatly reduced, or they will incur a huge karmic debt to the primordial world.

Either way, it would make their efforts to repair the ley lines of the western continent a losing proposition.

Of course, they can also choose not to absorb innate spiritual energy, but instead consume rare and precious materials, innate spiritual fruits, and pills to recover their own losses. They can even directly absorb and refine chaotic energy through the boundless void to recover their own losses.

But how many rare and precious materials, innate spiritual fruits, and elixirs does he possess?

This can quickly restore his losses, but even if he is very wealthy, he cannot withstand such a large and continuous drain!

With all the rare and precious materials he possesses, he won't last long at all!

Moreover, unless it is specifically used for recovery, using rare and precious materials, innate spiritual fruits, and pills to restore one's own depletion is a complete waste.

The most important aspect of these treasures is the laws and principles they contain, which can help people quickly sense the laws and principles they contain.

As for directly absorbing and refining chaotic energy through the boundless void to restore one's own losses.

Because the chaotic energy within the inner chaos has already been filtered through the world's membrane, its erosive and assimilative power is not as strong as that of the outer chaos, so he can do it.

However, the chaotic energy within the inner chaos is equally powerful, possessing the same ability to erode and assimilate, requiring at least a Great Luo Golden Immortal to refine it.

He wanted to refine it, and although he could do it, the refining process would cause him considerable losses, and the refining speed would be very slow.

If he were to refine and absorb innate spiritual energy, he might only need one or two eons to recover to his peak condition. However, if he were to refine and absorb chaotic energy, he would be lucky to recover to his peak condition within ten eons.

Recovery is already slow; if it drops another six or seven times, it's not just a case of being taken advantage of, but rather a case of being ripped off and doing backbreaking work.

"If only we could continuously obtain the power of the source, we wouldn't have to worry about anything!" Yuanjie thought to himself.

However, in an instant, Yuan Jie secretly shook his head in his heart, thinking that this was almost impossible.

The primordial world will not experience another cataclysmic event affecting the entire primordial world in the short term, and naturally, there will not be so many corpses that have not returned to the world for various reasons.

Without a constant supply of billions of corpses for him to refine, how could he possibly obtain a continuous source of primal power?

After pondering for a long time without any ideas, the three of them simply returned to the Blessed Land of Great Enlightenment to conduct a more in-depth deduction.

After an unknown amount of time deducing, the three finally came up with a solution that was hardly a solution:

That is to use the earth veins or innate spiritual treasures and innate spiritual roots as the base of the array, and then develop and set up a series of great arrays. Each of these great arrays must have the power of at least the level of a Great Luo Golden Immortal, so that it can continuously draw and refine the chaotic energy through the endless void and transform it into the power it needs.

Perhaps a large formation can only absorb and refine a small amount of chaotic energy, which is not enough to provide him with sufficient power.

But what if there were a hundred, a thousand, or even ten thousand? That would probably not only provide him with ample power, but there would also be plenty to spare.

Of course, it wasn't easy for him to set up so many grand formations with the power of a Great Luo Golden Immortal!

Setting up each major formation requires a considerable amount of time, as well as certain rare and precious materials or corresponding formation flags.

But that's alright! He's not in a hurry; he'll take it slow!

He could repair the earth veins while simultaneously using the repaired veins, along with innate spiritual treasures and roots, to set up a grand formation.

Although this method of repairing the earth's veins will slow down the process considerably, they still have enough primordial power at their disposal, so it's not a case of losing more than they gain. It's just a matter of how much they'll profit or how little they'll profit.
