Chapter 385: Chapter 98: In Ancient Times There Was Yu Gong Moving Mountains, Now There’s Lin Chen Moving Worlds

Lin Chen silently considered the feasibility of this soil transportation plan.

Lin Chen possesses Martial King level strength, with power exceeding ten thousand tons.

With the help of the nanobag, he can bring back at least ten thousand tons of spiritual soil each time.

In the Cultivation Realm... to be honest, such soil is not rare.

Casually purchasing a Spirit Mountain, the spiritual soil excavated is seemingly endless.

The difficulty lies in the excavation of the spiritual soil...

However, more fortunately, Lin Chen has mastered the Earth Escape Technique...

Nanometer Storage Bag, Martial King level strength, Earth Escape Technique...

"This really is... the perfect alignment of time, place, and people, all in my favor!"

Lin Chen sighed in his heart.

There’s no helping it, the High Martial World is too impoverished!

Although highly technologically advanced, and its Martial Path is not weak either.

The true problem is resource scarcity!

Compared to the countless Treasures of Heaven and Earth, spiritual energy, and soils nurtured for centuries in the Cultivation Realm...

The only noteworthy resources the High Martial World has seem to be the Demon Beast Flesh Essence and Exotic Metal.

However, both are extremely rare, often obtained through martial artists risking their lives.

If he could transport the spiritual soil from the Cultivation Realm back...

Given the vastness of the Cultivation Realm, even bringing back one ten-thousandth could suffice to implement spiritual soil across the entire High Martial World.

It could even fill seas and create new lands, forging a brand new Cultivation Continent!

Countless spiritual soil, spiritual energy, and spiritual medicine...

But this is destined to be a long process.

Even if Lin Chen can move ten thousand tons of soil at a time, achieving this goal will still take countless years of accumulation.

"In ancient times, there was Yu Gong who moved mountains; today, there’s me, Lin Chen, moving worlds..."

Lin Chen chuckled bitterly.

"But thankfully, it won’t take too much time, so I’ll take it slow and steady..."

...

In the following week, Han Jihai, along with several elders from the Changchun Sect, developed Medicine Mountain.

Clearing wastelands and planting spiritual medicine, they were extremely busy.

According to Han Jihai’s goal, within at most three months, the first batch of hundred-acre spiritual fields’ century-old spiritual medicine would all mature.

Of course, this is based on several Golden Core Elders speeding up the process night and day in batches.

Medicine Mountain is large and can cultivate a lot of spiritual medicine.

In comparison, the Changchun Sect seems somewhat understaffed.

The senior apprentice sister, third senior brother, and junior apprentice brother all stayed on Medicine Mountain to plant spiritual medicine with their master.

Only Lin Chen was left alone in the pharmacy in Wenda City.

This gave Lin Chen more freedom, sometimes even sparing time to play chess with Jiang Liqian.

During this period, Lin Chen used the Earth Escape Technique to change his appearance underground.

Then, he disguised himself as Zhou Wu and, under his guise, bought two Spirit Mountains located five thousand miles from Wenda City.

Though called Spirit Mountains, they are actually barren mountains.

The mountains have spiritual energy and spiritual soil, but they haven’t been cultivated or nurtured by arrays.

For ordinary forces, developing them would require substantial time and effort.

Therefore, the price of Spirit Mountains is much cheaper compared to Medicine Mountains.

Two three-hundred-zhang tall mountains, each covering a radius of ten li, cost only a million Spirit Stones.

Lin Chen set up arrays around the two barren mountains, indicating they were owned.

Until the last few two-hours before returning to Blue Star, Lin Chen ventured into one of the barren mountains.

...

Lin Chen’s mind stirred, and his Divine Sense surged out like a tide in all directions.

In an instant, he could perceive every detail of the barren mountain.

Within the mountain were mainly barren fields and dense forests, with occasional small animals just beginning to develop spirit plants, not yet becoming demon or spirit beasts.

The mountain lacked any spiritual springs, and its interior had no hint of mineral deposits.

In other words, the barren mountain only had soil and old trees as valuable resources.

"Tsk, as expected of a barren mountain... truly desolate."

"But, it’s more than enough."

Lin Chen murmured to himself.

All he needed was soil.

Lin Chen flicked his finger, and dozens of nanobags appeared before him.

Soon after, Lin Chen’s hands were enveloped in an earth-yellow glow...

As it shimmered across the ground beneath his feet.

In merely a breath, dozens of cubic meters of soil vanished, reappearing inside the nanobags.

With a few waves of his hand, over three thousand cubic meters of soil disappeared, creating a massive pit beneath Lin Chen’s feet.

Then, Lin Chen picked up a storage bag with some difficulty.

"Tsk, this single nanobag holds over three thousand cubic meters of soil... weighing nearly ten thousand tons."

Lin Chen calculated silently that ordinary spiritual soil is less dense than soil once nurtured by dragon blood.

Yet it is still heavier than soil from Blue Star.

Over three thousand cubic meters of spiritual soil seem like a lot, but in reality, it’s not much.

Assuming the spiritual soil needs to be at least one meter deep...

Three thousand cubic meters could give the Great Xia Country five additional acres of spiritual fields.

Though lower grade in the Cultivation Realm, they are dozens of times more fertile than the High Martial World’s spirit fields!

"With my current strength, I can transport over three thousand cubic meters of soil at once... which converts to about five acres of fields."

"Hmm... crossing worlds once a week, I can bring back three hundred acres of spiritual fields a year..."

Thinking this, Lin Chen chuckled bitterly.

He, a dignified Nascent Soul Great Power, a core figure of the High Martial World, was amidst a barren mountain, moving soil.

Speaking of it sounds rather embarrassing...

Yet, there’s no other choice, for Lin Chen, the High Martial World is like an eager child, lacking everything and desiring everything!

"Fortunately, with the Earth Escape Technique... excavating the mountain doesn’t take much time."

Lin Chen employed the Earth Escape Technique again, and the pit beneath his feet visibly deepened.

In just a brief half-hour, dozens of storage bags were filled.

Meanwhile, beneath Lin Chen’s feet, a hundred-meter-deep gigantic pit had appeared.

"Tsk tsk, this Earth Escape Technique really is useful... Perhaps I’d make a good land merchant after retiring someday."

"With my efficiency... I might very well match the work of hundreds of people in a year."

Lin Chen smacked his lips.

The cultivation realm’s techniques are still too mysterious.

Dozens of storage bags, that’s a hundred thousand cubic meters of soil.

Lin Chen would need at least half a year to bring it back to Blue Star.

Put all these nanobags into the Purple Jade Gourd.

Lin Chen quickly left this desolate mountain and returned to Wenda City.

...

Wenda City, Lin Chen’s residence.

Lin Chen glanced at the countdown for teleportation, less than three minutes left.

He took out two nanobags.

One was filled with resources to bring back to Blue Star, the other filled with three thousand cubic meters of soil.

In the future, with every teleportation, Lin Chen decided to bring back a bag of spiritual soil.

As the countdown reset, his vision shifted.

"Three, two, one!"

...

In the Great Xia Kingdom, Martial Arts Palace.

Lin Chen distributed the storage bags filled with various resources while holding the nanobag in his hand.

Wang Lishan saw this and looked surprised.

"Lin Chen, what is that thing you’re holding?"

Lin Chen smiled and said:

"This is quite the treasure..."

The nanobag was too heavy, Lin Chen dared not let Wang Lishan take it directly.

Instead, he placed it on the ground.

Instantly, the alloy floor creaked and a large pit sank in.

Wang Lishan saw this and his eye twitched.

"Lin Chen, what’s inside this... exactly?"

"Why don’t you open it and see for yourself?" Lin Chen smiled.

Wang Lishan nodded, opening the nanobag and took out a handful of soil.

"This is... spiritual soil?"

Wang Lishan raised an eyebrow, being a Golden Core cultivator, he was sensitive to spiritual energy.

He could feel the spiritual energy and power contained in this spiritual soil, although not as good as the Dragon Blood Spiritual Soil Lin Chen brought before.

But still far better than Blue Star’s spiritual soil!

"Uncle Wang, about the Dragon Blood Spiritual Soil from before... What does the country plan to do with it?"

Lin Chen tentatively asked.

Previously, he also excavated thousands of cubic meters of Dragon Blood Spiritual Soil from the Dragon Spirit Sect ruins.

Wang Lishan handed over a plan chart saying:

"The Dragon Blood Spiritual Soil’s effects are fantastic! The maturity speed of spirit plants grown on it increased tenfold..."

"An expert team decided to prioritize planting Dragon Spirit Flowers and some high-tier spirit plants."

After hearing this, Lin Chen nodded and shared his idea:

"Thousands of cubic meters of Dragon Blood Spiritual Soil, around five to six acres... How many high-tier spirit plants can be cultivated?"

"In my opinion, part of the Dragon Blood Spiritual Soil should be used for high-tier spirit plants. The rest can be mixed with spiritual soil brought from the cultivation realm."

"Sprinkle a thin layer of Dragon Blood Spiritual Soil on the surface of the spiritual soil. At least several hundred acres of upper-grade spirit fields could be created, perfect for growing materials for Breakthrough Pills like Foundation Establishment Pill and Golden Yuan Pill..."

Wang Lishan pondered and nodded:

"That’s indeed a great direction, I’ll communicate with the expert team about it."

"By the way, how much spiritual soil can you bring back each time?"

"Over three thousand cubic meters... about five acres of spiritual soil," Lin Chen replied.

Wang Lishan’s eyes brightened at this, exclaiming:

"All of this quality spiritual soil? Can you bring as much as needed?"

Lin Chen laughed, saying:

"In Qing State Central Domain, this spiritual soil... isn’t much more precious than regular soil."

Wang Lishan was immediately overjoyed.

"Great, great! I’ll establish this case immediately... and extend the cultivation regions northward by a hundred miles! Specifically for planting these spiritual soils..."

Lin Chen nodded in agreement.

After more than twenty years of development, Great Xia’s cultivation regions are extremely vast.

Northwest of Kyoto, beyond the military district, lay a forbidden zone spanning over two hundred miles.

With Great Xia’s speed, they built five Immortal Cities within just a few years.

Named after the Five Elements: Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth.

Among the tens of thousands cultivators Great Xia nurtured, half were living in these five Immortal Cities.

Enjoying the cultivation boost brought by spiritual energy, while growing spirit plants extensively and providing maintenance for Kyoto.

Spirit Companion Grass covering the vast mountains supplied the basic spiritual energy for these cultivators’ training.

Yet Spirit Stone remained precious, always controlled by the state, regarded as award tools.

It couldn’t be helped; Great Xia’s supply of Spirit Stones kept falling short.

To say nothing more, just the cultivation of tens of thousands of cultivators required at least one or two million Spirit Stones monthly.

It’s out of Lin Chen’s ability to supply that amount by himself!

Only exceptionally talented and high-performing cultivators would get rewarded with Spirit Stones to speed up their cultivation.

This created a healthy competition.

Following this trend, in the next ten years, the number of Great Xia cultivators might reach a million!

Although most would be Qi Refining cultivators, it’s still quite impressive.

Seeing the excited Wang Lishan before him, Lin Chen suddenly said:

"Uncle Wang, this time, I want to go out of the city with you and see..."
