I only want to win over the fairy.

Why is it that every time I finally manage to run into Bai Yi and try to have a chance encounter to deepen our relationship, these idiots always mess it up? It's infuriating!

It wasn't just Yu Gonghua who was furious; Bai Ze was too.

After watching Yu Gonghua finish her attack, you felt an irresistible urge to join in, so in front of all the guests and the main family of Penglai Immortal Mountain, you brutally kicked and stomped the Eighth Elder of Penglai Immortal Mountain to the ground.

Bai Ze came to this banquet specifically because she thought Bai Yi might come, but when she finally saw him, this whole thing happened. How could she not be angry?!

Annoying!

As Qiu Yuelian was rushing towards the Emperor's Palace, her face darkened as she looked at the information displayed on the simulator.

She thought she had a pretty good temper, but seeing this, her fists unconsciously hardened.

Who is Bai Yi?

That's the hero who saved the Human Emperor's Palace, the Human Emperor who destroyed Guimingtian, and the White Emperor who forged the Nine Cauldrons to suppress the nine forbidden zones of life. Such a person isn't even qualified to attend your banquet, is he?

Is your banquet made of gold or silver?

Believe it or not, I'll go back to the Emperor's Palace and report this, and summon eight hundred warriors to tear your Penglai Immortal Mountain apart!

Seeing this, you told the elders around you what you had seen, and upon learning of this, the elders of the Human Emperor's Palace immediately became anxious.

"Damn it! There's such a thing! Even the Emperor won't let him in; I think he's already courting death!"

"Beat him up!"

"Today I will avenge the Emperor!"

[Your group was stopped by the Eighth Elder, who was being carried away from Penglai Immortal Mountain for treatment. Each of you was kicked once, and then you swaggered away.]

On the other hand, Shen Tu didn't attend the human banquet at all because he had no interest in it.

However, when she saw the news that Yu Gonghua, Bai Ze, Qiu Yuelian and their group had kicked the Eighth Elder of Penglai Immortal Mountain, she first felt it was absurd, then shook her head and investigated the reasons behind it.

Damn it! I've never treated Bai Yi like this, so what gives you the right?!

Die!

The day after the banquet began, you stormed into the feast at Penglai Immortal Mountain, stole the stone egg, and dragged out the Eighth Elder, who was still recovering from his injuries, and beat him half to death once again.

Chapter 193 Why would anyone want to breed better mosquitoes?

Bai Yi was unaware of what had happened at Penglai Immortal Mountain.

He is currently in a very special state. His strength has reached a bottleneck, and it is basically impossible to overcome that bottleneck by simply continuing on the old path.

Without relying on external forces, his current limit seems to be the peak of the Great Emperor realm and the 999,999th level of the power of reincarnation.

Perhaps one can forcibly elevate one's realm by merging with things like the Heavenly Dao, but that would be a devastation to one's "true self." One who grows by relying on such power has little independent thought; one is merely a puppet controlled by power and the order of heaven and earth.

Above the realm of the Great Emperor should be the Immortal.

For some reason, Bai Yi always felt that the gap between the Great Emperor Realm and the Immortal Realm was too big, not just a little bit, but even ten times or nine times bigger than the difference between the ninety-nine hundred thousand layers and one million layers of the power of reincarnation!

His strength had stagnated for a long time. In these simulations, Bai Yi's power seemed to be constantly increasing, but what he was expanding was more in terms of functionality rather than in terms of overall strength.

He had temporarily reached the power of a million layers of reincarnation when he was in a state of extreme anger, but that was not a normal situation.

Being able to unleash an attack at the level of one million layers of reincarnation power is a completely different realm from having one's own strength stabilized at one million layers of reincarnation power.

The former means that you unleash your ultimate attack, and you don't know if the enemy will be killed, but you will definitely die. The latter means that as long as you have enough power, you can unleash the ultimate attack of that level at will. Even if your strength is severely depleted, you can recover by resting and recuperating for a period of time instead of dying directly.

Perhaps to put it more accurately, Bai Yi never formally stepped into the realm of one million layers of reincarnation power from beginning to end; what he stepped into was merely the [self-destruction realm] before that final realm.

Self-Destruction Realm: Only when a powerful individual achieves ultimate enlightenment and is filled with the resolve to die can they enter the Self-Destruction Realm and unleash the power of a million layers of reincarnation. After such an attack, the powerful individual will have a 90% chance of dying; even if they survive, they will be reduced to 900,000 layers.

During the pacification of the forbidden zone, Bai Yi relied on the phoenix bloodline of the Feather Palace Flower to prolong his life, which allowed him to finish the battle before dying. If it were anyone else, their body would probably collapse on the spot after the first blow, and they would die on the spot.

Thinking about it carefully, Bai Yi has often gained temporary power by sacrificing his life. Even if he doesn't lose his life, he still has to pay a huge price to gain power. It's a power without side effects that he doesn't need.

However, he still had no idea how to break through the million-floor threshold.

In reality, one can rely on a cultivation simulator to accumulate eternal Dao fruits, eventually merging them into the myriad phenomena of the universe, allowing oneself to attain eternal enlightenment. However, the self in the simulator cannot use this method.

So in this simulation, he wanted to try to expand his six-dimensional attributes, travel around the nine provinces and overseas, try to improve his state of mind, and hopefully gain some kind of epiphany, to see if he could achieve some new breakthroughs and progress.

In May of the fourth year of the White Emperor Era, you and your junior sister Su Qingyu visited Hundred Flowers Valley, one of the nine great immortal sects. You received a warm welcome from the Holy Maiden, elders, and acting sect leader of Hundred Flowers Valley. During the visit, you discussed the alchemy and pharmacology of Hundred Flowers Valley with them. You stated that the current alchemy and pharmacology did not require much of your opinion.

"The alchemy and pharmacology of Hundred Flowers Valley are not problematic; your development is already quite advanced. However, the alchemy of the Nine Provinces is still at the level of collecting precious medicinal materials and refining them into pills. How about tracing back to the source and studying the combination of medicinal materials, or cultivating new varieties of medicines with better effects?"

[Your suggestions are quite extensive, and each one requires a great deal of effort, so the people of Hundred Flowers Valley haven't taken them too seriously. They only treat you with respect because of your status. Moreover, Hundred Flowers Valley's knowledge of alchemy and pharmacology is currently sufficient to meet the world's needs. Investing heavily in cultivating new varieties of medicine would be a waste of precious natural resources if they fail.]

Each type of medicine has different growth habits and requires different growth conditions. Therefore, the amount of ingredients needed to cultivate a better and more effective variety is also very large.

If the cultivation is successful, all is well; if it fails, then those few medicinal herbs that were obtained with great difficulty may become a pile of waste.

This is a situation that no one wants to see.

Moreover, the medicinal herb will grow to its full potential every so often in the secret realm. At that time, the younger generation of the sect can be sent there to pick it. This way, they can not only obtain the herbs but also train the disciples. Wouldn't that be killing two birds with one stone?

This is the thinking of most cultivators in the cultivation world. If it were Bai Yi, he certainly wouldn't think that way.

He would definitely think about what kind of environment the harvested medicinal herbs should be placed in to grow, how to select better seeds to cultivate the next generation, what kind of fertilizer should be applied to make the medicinal herbs grow faster and better, how to make full use of them after they mature, how many other medicinal herbs this herb can be combined with, and after in-depth analysis, what kinds of substances this herb is composed of, under what circumstances it will mutate, and whether this mutation can develop and stabilize for the better, etc.

Unfortunately, cultivating such a plant is extremely risky; even the slightest mishap could waste a precious medicinal herb. Therefore, it's best to let powerful cultivators handle it, so that even if something goes wrong, the losses can be minimized.

Unfortunately, many powerful cultivators look down on low-grade medicinal herbs. They feel that they have worked hard to reach this level, but they have to deal with medicinal herbs that people several levels below them would use. They must feel unbalanced.

These cultivators clearly lack foresight and are incapable of considering the future development of the Nine Provinces. They can only see their own powerful realms, yet they are unwilling to set aside their pride and dignity to expand downwards and make small sacrifices for the development of the Nine Provinces. These people are nothing more than remnants of the old era who are unwilling to shed their old robes, belonging to those cultivators who are neither high nor low in status.

[In July of the fourth year of the White Emperor Era, the Holy Maiden of Hundred Flowers Valley was discovered to be involved in evil experiments. She was punished by her sect and imprisoned for two hundred years, required to constantly cleanse her heart until it is as clear as a mirror, devoid of any evil thoughts. According to your investigation, the Holy Maiden's research involved racial studies. The researchers were constantly killing the weaker members of a race, leaving only the elites, who were then used to cultivate the next generation. Rumor has it that this Holy Maiden has already cultivated several beings with extraordinary talents.]

[“Research on races?” You were quite interested in this, so you inquired with an inner disciple of Hundred Flowers Valley who knew the inside story: “It shouldn’t be research about the human race, right?”]

"How could it possibly be research on humans? It's just about some unintelligent animals." Since the matter had already been settled, the Hundred Flowers Valley disciple answered truthfully.

"Animals..." you continued, "I don't think Kyushu has an animal protection association. Using small animals like mice for experiments shouldn't warrant such a severe punishment, right?"

[The disciple from Hundred Flowers Valley was somewhat embarrassed to talk about this, but under your barrage of spirit stones, he secretly told you about the animals he was researching.]

[You have learned that the Holy Maiden of Hundred Flowers Valley is researching mosquitoes, and that her latest generation can ignore changes in weather and temperature, and their blood-sucking speed has been greatly enhanced. They can suck the blood of a creature in less than a second, and their vitality is so strong that even a Foundation Establishment cultivator cannot kill them with a single slap. Moreover, some of them have already shown the talent to step onto the path of immortality.]

Why should such a talented person be imprisoned for two hundred years?!

This kind of person should be taken straight to the execution platform and beheaded at noon!

In previous simulations, Bai Yi had acted as a mad scientist, digging up the graves of other sects and using the corpses in their graves for experiments. He could be considered a representative of both blasphemy against ancestors and heinous crimes.

However, Bai Yi felt that there was still a huge gap between what he was researching and what the Holy Maiden of Hundred Flowers Valley was researching. After all, he was just messing with corpses. Even if he researched some kind of demonic art, he would only harm cultivators if he mastered it, and he wouldn't harm ordinary people. But if this guy's research was successful, he would not only harm ordinary people, but also harm people for thousands of generations!

but.....

The idea of ​​using mosquitoes for research has many merits.

Mosquitoes have a large population base, and breeding them doesn't require much resource. Out of tens of millions of mosquitoes, if even one barely meets one requirement, it's a huge profit. Even if none of them meet the requirements, the sunk cost is not high. If they don't meet the requirements, you can just replace them with another batch, since they're not expensive anyway.

This saintess is truly an extraordinary genius, but no one will allow her research to succeed.

Perhaps I could learn from this and experiment with insects that reproduce rapidly. After cultivating them, I could even play a trick on them: "My insect brothers are endless, your spiritual power is like a candle flickering in the wind."

"Ah Meng, do you think it's feasible to use insects to cultivate a powerful new breed of immortal cultivators, and eventually create a race where more than 10% of the members have Heavenly Spiritual Roots?" Bai Yi felt that asking Xuan Yuanmeng was the most appropriate way to determine the feasibility of this plan.

As the Heavenly Dao, the other party must know the probability of it being feasible.

Hearing this, Xuan Yuanmeng, who was constantly dusting and repairing the rift in the Guimingtian Abyss in the simulation, was stunned at first, and then thought that Bai Yi had finally gone mad. "Are you out of your mind? If you really cultivate such a race, what right does your human race have to continue to be the ruler of heaven and earth?"

The ancient demon race was able to defeat the innate holy spirits and the demon race because of their large numbers and prolific reproduction.

The human race was able to defeat the ancient demon race because of order, wisdom, and the ability to use external rules to strengthen themselves.

Now, if you create a race with a large population base, extremely fast reproduction, low resource consumption, and one genius out of ten, and if these conditions still cannot replace the human race as the master of heaven and earth, then either this race is full of idiots, or the heavenly way will "fairly judge" and take a biased stance.

If it were Bai Yi's request, Xuan Yuanmeng would be happy to step in and take sides. But the problem is, if this race was really created by Bai Yi, and has greater potential than the human race, and consumes less of the resources of heaven and earth, then how can she take sides?

What he needed was Bai Yi, not a human.

Moreover, if this newly created race is quite useful and loyal to Bai Yi, and doesn't cause trouble like the human race, then she thinks it wouldn't be a bad idea to let the human race relinquish its position as the ruler of heaven and earth.

However, to cultivate a race of this caliber is basically a pipe dream: "Give up your unrealistic idea. Living beings may have a strong reproductive capacity in the early stages, but once their life level increases, their reproductive capacity will inevitably weaken. At the same time, they will continuously strengthen individuals and increase their demand for resources. So even if you create a race full of geniuses, the world will not have enough resources to support them. In the end, you will have to redistribute them into different classes based on their geniuses."

"I know, I was just asking casually." Bai Yi was not surprised by the result.

Zerg may be very useful at lower levels, but it becomes very difficult at higher levels, especially the Great Emperors of the world. Normally, there is only one Great Emperor. Even if you have tens of thousands of Zerg at the Dao Integration Realm, it is useless. Only one can break through to the next level.

Rather than studying this, let's think about how to break through the millionth level of the power of reincarnation.

Once he breaks through to the millionth level, he won't need to do so many unnecessary things. He will accept the memories of this simulation, and the power of reincarnation will be directly propelled to the millionth level by his will, his path, his emotions, and his love. At that time, he will easily reach the millionth level with just time.

At that time, even if his current spiritual power level was only at the Fallen Moon Realm, he could still kill a Supreme Being with a single slap.

At that time, how could the Supreme Being of the Dog Shit Forbidden Zone and that incomprehensible extraterrestrial demon possibly withstand him?!

"Unfortunately, breaking through a million layers is not so simple. Whether it's emotions, state of mind, or the Dao, one needs to reach the extreme." Bai Yi couldn't help but sigh.

The path here is different from the path of reincarnation he cultivates; this path is the path within his heart, the path he walks and practices.

The external Tao can be improved through continuous deepening of understanding, but the inner Tao is difficult to greatly improve without experiencing certain things.

That's why he wanted to travel the world, spread his teachings, and build connections to calm his mind and try to perfect the path he was walking, so as to break through the final realm of one million layers in one fell swoop!

Although you are somewhat interested in the research of the Holy Maiden of Hundred Flowers Valley, you have absolutely no liking for mosquitoes, creatures that shouldn't exist in this world, so you haven't taken the initiative to approach them.

[The Valley of a Hundred Flowers values ​​you highly, providing you with cultivation resources every month according to the standards set by the sect's Supreme Elders, yet they don't require you to do anything.]

Adhering to the principle of "why not refuse something that's free," you choose to accept it and spend this resource on your junior sister, Su Qingyu. You also collect any rare materials you encounter and send them to your disciple, Luo Jiuxiao.

[You have resided in Hundred Flowers Valley for ten months. During this time, many elders and even the sect leader have visited you. Each time they arrive, they bring numerous gifts and subtly request that you take in their juniors, hoping you can offer them some guidance.]

[Upholding the belief that education should be accessible to all, you basically accept all comers. After all, you're not someone who cares too much about your reputation; taking on a few apprentices isn't unacceptable to you, so you do so.]

Although you welcome all who come to you, you are not perfunctory. You teach your disciples earnestly, and you are happy to guide those who humbly seek your advice. You also tailor your teaching to each disciple's individual strengths, creating suitable teaching plans for them.

[In January of the sixth year of the White Emperor Era, a disciple sought your guidance. However, her questions were not about cultivation, but rather about other matters. She inquired whether the rules of the world were simply the survival of the fittest, whether the strong could arbitrarily humiliate the weak, and the difference between the righteous path and the demonic path.]

The disciple asked you: "Teacher, you taught me cultivation and how to refine my heart. However, since embarking on the path of cultivation, there is one thing I still don't understand. Throughout history, there have been countless powerful cultivators, and these powerful cultivators could easily kill weaker ones, even if it became widely known afterward. As long as this person had a powerful backing or possessed great strength, they could escape punishment unless they offended someone of equal or greater power. Does this mean that powerful cultivators are superior and can do whatever they want?" If so, what is the difference between the so-called righteous path and the demonic sect? Or is the so-called righteous path merely occupying the banner of justice, revealing its ferocious fangs under the guise of righteousness?

Your answer was concise: "I don't know."

"Why? Is it because you don't want to tell me?" the disciple asked, somewhat dejected. "Teacher, you are clearly a wise man who understands both the past and present, and the strongest person of this era. With your intelligence, you should know the answers."

"Because you're not really asking me questions. Your purpose in asking these questions is simply to question me about why I possess such great power yet do nothing." You saw through the disciple's intentions at a glance.

[The disciple whose thoughts you've seen through no longer hides it; she does indeed have a questioning tone. In her view, you clearly possess the strongest power, yet you tacitly condone the various dark acts in the Nine Provinces, which is undoubtedly an indulgence of evil. You might even be one of them, or perhaps the greatest source of darkness.]
