I Can Reap Qi Fortune from Players
Chapter 797 - 277: Data Analysis of the Otherworld
The post is heating up, it's a frenzy belonging to a limited-time event, and in no time various likes and replies appeared.
"Hello everyone, I am Nightly Frenzied Cultivation Sixth Body, the game has been massively updated today!"
"Today, everyone is incredibly busy, busy but happy and fulfilled. As we all know, the most enjoyable time playing games is during the early phase, exploring new maps."
"Of course, while research teams in every region are busy, our think tank isn't idle either. Members are running around, conducting a preliminary analysis of information obtained by various departments."
"The content this time is fascinating, as it reboots the [Embers Idle Adventurer Team] [Dungeon Exploration], a classic mode recently phased out because we had become too strong."
"Previously, this mode helped us to start out and brought us great joy."
"I still remember back in the day, when the Embers Adventurer Team ventured out for the first time, the material first collected by the Dizzy Adventurer Team: the Corpse-Colored Mushroom, was truly appetite-whetting."
"The Su Yuniang Adventurer Team showed off the River Demon brought back from the wellhead down the mountain, flaunting how prosperous the area below the mountain was, taking me back to that sunny afternoon."
"Later, the Sword Fairy Adventurer Team engaged in text adventures, adventures in Pingchang City, State City, Capital City... using idle adventures to present us with a delightful fantasy world from afar."
"Later on, we were gradually phased out because we became too strong, but now we rise again!"
"Alright, the preamble is over, let's get into the main topic. The first Embers Adventurer Team has reached the spaceship, which has been idling for seven hundred years."
"First, we've established a tone that that world has no Spiritual Root and cannot cultivate using our system."
"In fact, today by comparing the two worlds and using them as references, we've discovered a shocking phenomenon: the Pseudo-human Calamity and Embers Disaster that we have always feared and loathed... are actually the source of our cultivation."
The post reveals a truth.
The essence of the Spiritual Root is the pseudo-human's Three Flowers, flowers inserted in the head...
That world doesn't have the Pseudo-human Calamity, so naturally, bodies of mortals there have no Spiritual Root, making it impossible to follow the unique cultivation system of the Nine-State.
Every creature there carries the Embers virus, which may erupt upon death, transforming into embers.
That world also lacks the Embers Disaster; ancestral tombs don't rise to kill people.
So they now find it astonishing!
The dreadful ancient Dual Disasters are, in fact, the source of our extraordinary powers and the keystone of our civilization!
The two major disasters have long been diluted by history. Like viruses within symbionts, everyone becomes the parasitic host of Spiritual Root and Embers, enabling us to cultivate this system.
Neither Embers nor Spiritual Root is innate in organisms... they belong to symbiosis.
Just like the symbiosis of "human bodies" with "bacteria."
Modern medicine has long arrived at a truth: without bacteria, the human body cannot survive.
The inhabitants of the Nine-State have merged with these two disasters and cannot be separated.
Meanwhile, the human Spiritual Root is quite unique.
It belongs to incomplete symbiosis... each time a person is born, the Spiritual Root must parasitize anew since it doesn't fully integrate with humans once and for all.
As Night Mad Cultivator's analysis progresses, undoing layer by layer, they understand for the first time the true origin of the Nine-State cultivation system.
And they feel immensely shocked.
The two major disasters turn out to be blessings in disguise.
"That world has no Spiritual Root, no Embers, so it cannot follow our Undying Cycle system."
"And seemingly weaker at the same tier, like flimsy bodies, typical conventional powerhouses, unlike us being so troublesome, meddling with ancestral tombs."
"In fact, how annoying our system is, the picture of filial piety with twisted father, if you know, you know. Pseudo-humans and Embers are too bothersome."
"And over there, they have Spiritless Bodies, unable to experience out-of-body experiences."
"Why no Spirit Body? We've concluded; this metal tomb, the so-called Gold Embers, absorbs spiritual energy... belongs to a Soul-Draining Metal, with countless Metal Ancestral Tombs, your Spirit Body over there would be like water being dropped into the desert, absorbed instantly."
"Moreover, we speculated further; the initial Embers in our world separated from our sacrifices, whether this Gold Embers also separated from their offerings."
"Research on this today... somewhat resembles the structure of Magic Copper, capable of storing and absorbing energy... but even more advanced!"
"And from where did the Magic Copper veins come? Gao... a powerhouse's brain!"
"I now suspect this Gold Embers could be transformed from the cerebral spinal fluid of sacrifices from that world!"
...
The analysis from Night Mad Cultivator continues to be as imaginative and absurd as ever.
But on closer consideration...
It kind of makes a lot of sense.
That's just how outrageous the talent Night Mad Cultivator is, his guesses may be right or wrong, but his ideas have always been wild!
Even Ning Zheng felt confused...
"Could this Otherworld version of Embers... really be the brain matter of sacrifices?"
He found himself somewhat convinced by Night Mad Cultivator.
In the dim light of night, Ning Zheng lay in his room reading this forum, listening to the banter of a noisy group, with various posts flooding the screen.
Watched for quite a while, before closing the forum:
"A bit outrageous."
Yet, perhaps, this new adventurer team arrived just at the right time.
After all, Ning Zheng has genuinely reached a bottleneck with his daily absorption of Qi Fortune Value.
Every day, a gain of over two million Qi Fortune Value means there are a million people losing 2 each day.
And only a few thousand out of them are sincerely losing 2, the rest are just pretending.
This means that Ning Zheng now has traffic of tens of millions to hundreds of millions every day!
How terrifying is that?
His various strongholds are like temples. People aren't just idle every day to come worship you, not working? Not going to work? Not cultivating? Not adventuring? Having that many already approaches the limit.
It also shows how strong the reputation of the Human Race's Xi Rong and the Sea Race's Bone King is.
Next, Ning Zheng wants to increase the Qi Fortune Value. He couldn't do it by increasing the numbers; he could only improve the quality.
Brainwash them.
Change it from one in a few thousand, to one in a few hundred, to one in a few dozen, so the quality can still double.
But then this is already an evil cult!
Brainwashing the masses, would the major forces not notice or stop Ning Zheng?
Ning Zheng himself would experience a character collapse and would be targeted by artists. They would completely discover he could "make money" through this way.
So.
It's absolutely impossible for Ning Zheng to brainwash the masses.
This low-quality scattered believers are the best camouflage.
But it also means that Ning Zheng, in the short term, cannot expand his Qi Fortune across the Nine-State Four Seas.
And at this juncture...
The Embers Adventurer Team came!
"Next door is a piece of undeveloped fertile land that can allow me to reach a new peak of Qi Fortune."
Ning Zheng showed a thoughtful look, "That world is not as strong as ours, at most it's on par with us, even if it already has someone beyond the Self-Transformation Realm... an Immortal!"
"Because if it truly crushed us, Immortals are claimed to be able to cross worlds, they would have invaded our Nine-State long ago, why is there no historical record... the artists should have interacted with these Otherworld visitors... our world should be very special, able to fight beyond its level."
I need to study how to extract the Qi Fortune from their side, 800 billion to completely open the path next door? Clearly, there's no money.
"Mail the Golden Mud over, that's the best choice."
And Ning Zheng's Magic Copper Emperor is a huge copper statue mainly made of Golden Mud that can absorb Qi Fortune from Disaster Beasts.
This copper statue is the largest Golden Mud, previously Ning Zheng estimated, as a super Self-Transformation Realm Plague God Emperor, it can store 50 million Qi Fortune!
It is truly a world calamity, fully absorbing, wherever it reaches, is plagued by calamities.
Ning Zheng mused:
"It can be used as a fixed warehouse for 50 million Qi Fortune."
"I can 'mail' hundreds of Golden Muds over, serve as the courier, absorb the 50 million warehouse Qi Fortune, then when it's full, mail hundreds of Golden Muds back."
Ning Zheng thought he was simply a genius, a perfect logistics formed instantly.
It has to be me!
Without this Bronze Statue Emperor's 50 million large warehouse, it would be really hard to circulate the deliveries quickly.
In the future, let those Embers Adventurer Teams, on spaceships, mess with those giant prawn civilizations, fool those monster citizens, let those primitive tribe guys, worship statues, and become fanatic believers...
A very large area of the Chronicles of Time Imperial Mausoleum can accommodate over a billion people living.
That giant prawn civilization, just like regular shrimp, breeds super fast. In the fourth or fifth century of seven hundred years, it was already densely populated, extremely crowded... ππ£π²ππ¨π²ππ»πΌπ―π²π.π°ππ¦
I'm afraid it's not just gonna be over a billion, but actually crammed to tens of billions!
This number made Ning Zheng's heart race at the thought.
Fooling them into fanatic believers, it's unlike having one in thousands, as long as brainwashing reaches every few dozen ones, it's a fortune!
Ning Zheng doesn't have any moral conscience.
It's the Otherworld, not afraid of being caught or called an evil cult.
No one knows him, he doesn't carry the moral burden of the two great sages Xi Rong and Bone King.
"Can try, wait until the blacksmiths come up with the preliminary analysis..."
Ning Zheng said indifferently, "Contact the other side, establish a courier station."
"However, over there, Jiucai Rong and the others have already lived for over seven hundred years, they are shrewd, I have to treat them as normal native powerhouses."
"Now the server connection is cut, the server range doesn't reach them, I can't control them."
"There still needs to be an equivalent exchange, I provide them with help, they provide me with Qi Fortune."
Wait...
The more Ning Zheng thinks about it, the more he feels like an Outer Heaven Heavenly Demon, an Outer Realm Evil God.
Deceiving the natives of a certain world, establishing evil cults, turning them into Outer God Believers, then making them fervently kneel, worship him, finally welcoming his descent?
"I immediately have a vivid image."
Ning Zheng complained a bit.
Setting up the Adventurer Teams, the more I think, the more it seems... somewhat outrageous?
