Primordial Era: Innate gourd vine, self-dismemberment

Chapter 47 Recruiting and Cultivating with the Clone Technique

After hundreds of eons, or even hundreds of eons, their original power was exhausted.

The large array they set up earlier should have already absorbed and transformed enough chaotic energy to generate enough power for them to continue to efficiently repair the earth veins!

However, their method of using the repaired earth veins, combined with innate spiritual treasures or innate spiritual roots to set up a grand formation to absorb and transform chaotic energy is not without its flaws.

The formation they set up was mainly for absorbing and transforming chaotic energy, so its concealment, defense, and attack effects would naturally be weakened.

Of course, it's not impossible for them to reach the same level in all these areas, but it would require significantly more time and effort, making it a losing proposition.

However, this would make it easy for powerful beings of the Great Luo Golden Immortal level or above to detect them when they pass by.

They discovered the formation, but if no one was in charge, they might not care whether it was set up by someone else. They might even become greedy and try to understand the formation, break it, and take away the innate spiritual treasures or roots that were suppressing it.

Although they would definitely be able to sense if someone broke the formation, the more formations they set up, the greater the probability of being encountered. There might even be ten large formations discovered at the same time.

That would make it difficult for them to be in two places at once!

Even if he doesn't, repeatedly dismissing the powerful immortals who come to him will definitely create countless karmic connections and waste a huge amount of his time and energy.

However, they also have a solution to this:

First, the ability to create clones!

This clone technique was created by them based on the clone technique, one of the seventy-two earthly fiend divine abilities. It allows one to use a portion of their own power to create a clone.

Such clones are at least one realm lower than them, unable to comprehend the Dao, cultivate, and improve their cultivation level. The more clones they create, the more power and consciousness they distribute. Once too many clones are created, the original body is prone to weakness.

However, given their strength, even if each of them were to create hundreds of clones at the late stage of Taiyi Golden Immortal, it would not have any adverse effect on them.

With a clone stationed to guard the grand formation, the power of the formation can be mobilized to fight enemies. Even if a Grand Luo Golden Immortal were to attack, it would likely be unafraid.

Even if a powerful Grand Luo Golden Immortal could forcibly break the formation, they would not break it casually or offend anyone if they sensed that someone was in charge of the formation.

Furthermore, he planned to bind the formation to the earth's veins. If no one was in charge of the formation, it would be fine, as the mechanical operation would easily reveal flaws, allowing people to bypass the formation and enter directly through those flaws.

However, if someone is in charge, unless one's cultivation level is far superior, the only way to break the formation is by force. Breaking the formation by force will inevitably destroy the bound earth veins, and the person who breaks the formation will be burdened with great karma.

As for him? He was attacked, and although he will also be burdened with karma, according to the law of cause and effect, the karma he receives will be far less than that of the person who broke the formation.

Secondly, it cultivates a group of Taiyi Golden Immortals, or even Daluo Golden Immortals.

With a certain number of Taiyi Golden Immortals or one Daluo Golden Immortal presiding over the formation, the formation will naturally be as solid as a rock, and there will be no need for him to send out a clone to guard it.

Moreover, the power that a presided over formation can unleash is vastly different from that of an unpresided formation.

If the grand formation he sets up is presided over by a certain number of Taiyi Golden Immortals or a Daluo Golden Immortal, then it will definitely be able to absorb and transform more chaotic energy, and generate more of the primordial power he needs.

Moreover, it wouldn't be too difficult for him to cultivate a group of Taiyi Golden Immortals, or even Daluo Golden Immortals.

Now that the Dragon-Han Great Tribulation has passed, we are at the beginning of a new era. The world is full of vitality and is continuously nurturing innate beings, including innate deities.

With their cultivation level and the background of top-tier innate saints, it wouldn't be difficult for them to recruit and subdue beings whose backgrounds are above the upper-level innate beings but below the middle-level innate saints.

In particular, recruiting high-ranking and top-tier innate beings is a matter of a single word, requiring no effort whatsoever. Simply preaching to them every so often will attract a large number of beings willing to join them.

However, recruiting innate deities, even those at the lower or middle levels, would likely require some sacrifice, such as innate spiritual treasures or roots, or certain promises.

As for the higher-ranking innate deities? Although it is possible to recruit and subdue them, it would certainly require paying a huge price, or they would truly share the same aspirations.

Top-tier innate saints? Unless they have already attained the Great Luo of Primordial Chaos, they can forget about it. They can only be treated as equals to themselves, just like when Di Jun and Tai Yi invited Nuwa and Fuxi to join the demon race.

If you want to forcefully subdue someone and use methods to control them, you can refer to Di Jun and Kun Peng. Once you have the chance, they will immediately bite back.

Since they traveled through the primordial world with their original self, they have obtained a vast amount of rare and precious materials, including many innate spiritual treasures and innate spiritual roots.

In particular, the Yin-Yang Twin Lotus and the Pure White Lotus can produce a lot of lotus seeds every certain period of time.

As long as they can recruit beings with sufficient aptitude, comprehension, and potential, it is not difficult for them to cultivate them into Taiyi Golden Immortals or Daluo Golden Immortals.

At least, they can easily cultivate high-ranking innate beings and top-tier innate beings into Taiyi Golden Immortals. If they cultivate diligently, work hard, and accumulate enough merit to obtain high-grade Yin-Yang Twin Lotus seeds, they may even become Daluo Golden Immortals.

As for lower-level and middle-level innate saints, they can easily cultivate them into Great Luo Golden Immortals. If they work hard to cultivate and work together to repair the earth veins and accumulate enough merit, then they also have a chance to become quasi-saints. And if they can get into the Zixiao Palace to preach, then they will most likely be able to break through to quasi-saint.

As for which of these two methods to resolve the defect,

Then naturally we should use both!

While it's not difficult for them to cultivate a group of Taiyi Golden Immortals and Daluo Golden Immortals, it will still take a considerable amount of time.

After all, it takes time for them to recruit and subdue a group of beings with backgrounds above the high-level innate beings and without too much karmic burden. It takes even more time to cultivate them.

During this period, they will naturally not stop repairing the ley lines of the western continent. After repairing the ley lines, they will set up a large array, which will naturally require them to send out clones to guard it.

However, once they recruit and subdue a group of creatures and raise them, they will no longer need to use the clone technique to create clones to guard the area.

By this time, a perfect plan had been devised. Yuanjie, Yuanlun, and Yuanling discussed it for a while and decided to contact the original body and act separately.

First, summarize their experiences and see how many beings they encountered during their travels through the primordial world, beings whose foundations were above those of high-ranking innate beings.

After summarizing, Yuanling will deduce the secrets of heaven, whether they are still alive, their experiences, and whether they are suitable for cultivation.

If they are suitable for cultivation, their locations will be deduced, and then they will be directly transported across the void to Taijue Blessed Land, Yingzhou Immortal Island, or even Yin-Yang Grotto Heaven for cultivation.
