by fanqienovelChapter 599: Primitive Spiritual Herb, New Era
“We did it! We succeeded! The Spiritual Herbs that fully fulfill the duty of producing spirit energy have finally been born! Hahahahaha!”
“This is the greatest achievement in the history of Tomorrow Nation, and it will completely transform Red Heaven. This moment will be forever remembered!”
At the Border Continent Spirit Vein Research Institute of Tomorrow Nation, laughter erupted all around, evolving into cheers that filled the entire facility.
The greatest achievement in history.
This is no exaggeration.
No accomplishment can compare to this small spiritual herb!
The Border Continent Spirit Vein Research Institute quickly reported to the higher level of Tomorrow Nation, which then notified Tian Jialun. The news was soon passed to the actual decision-maker of the New Heaven Dynasty, Shui Wuge.
She was startled and immediately sent her avatar to the Border Continent to verify the results. This was a project that Yun Ye had urged multiple times, and if successful, it would lead to a major operation.
A group of researchers followed behind Shui Wuge as they arrived at the laboratory and brought out the experimental results.
This was a spiritual herb that resembled a common weed, extremely ordinary, yet it was cultivated atop a spirit vein, with various instruments measuring it, revealing highly detailed data.
“To the Honored Being Shui, normally spiritual herbs need five hundred years to reach their maximum age and produce spirit energy to nourish the creatures of the world. This is truly too long, often being harvested for alchemy before the right time, leading the world’s spirit energy to rely solely on spirit veins. When the spirit vein is strong, cultivators are strong; when the spirit vein weakens, cultivators weaken.”
“But this ‘Primitive Spiritual Herb’ is different. It has been completely refined and can grow to its maximum age in just sixty years, making it something even mortal realm cultivators can wait for! Moreover, the key point is that the Primitive Spiritual Herb does not store spirit energy and lacks any useful spiritual material, making it useless for alchemy!”
“This directly eliminates the possibility of cultivators harvesting it for alchemy. As long as no disasters occur, the Primitive Spiritual Herb can grow to its maximum age without any worries, thus producing a large amount of spirit energy!”
“The Primitive Spiritual Herb is the pinnacle of spiritual herbs, born purely for the production of spirit energy, perfectly meeting His Majesty’s requirements!”
One of the deans was extremely excited, his body trembling as he spoke.
After a thousand years of research, if not for the protection of the Heavenly Dry Universe, which granted them lifespans far exceeding their own cultivation levels, they might never have seen hope.
Yet, having completed such a challenging task, the sense of accomplishment was immense, bringing tears of joy to their eyes.
“Good! Good! Good!”
After inspecting the herb, Shui Wuge found, just as the dean had said, there was not a hint of falsehood.
She repeated the word "good" three times, overwhelmed with joy!
The birth of the Primitive Spiritual Herb meant that from now on, the speed of increasing spirit energy density in the Red Heaven realm would drastically rise!
Over the course of ten thousand years, the rate of increase in spirit energy density could exceed ten times, representing a qualitative leap. This was exactly the outcome that Yun Ye desired!
The plan could begin!
With a wave of her hand, Shui Wuge collected the Primitive Spiritual Herb and said solemnly, “Your contributions are immense! His Majesty will personally recognize you, so please wait for a while until we resolve the issues!”
“Issues? What issues?” The old dean was momentarily puzzled, then thanked her with a bow, not too eager for rewards. For him, achieving results was the greatest joy and reward.
Shui Wuge didn’t linger, immediately returning to the Earth Continent’s Heavenly Palace to meet Yun Ye.
When she found Yun Ye, he was seriously trying out the latest video game… Indeed, as technology progressed and the world enjoyed peace, various entertainment facilities were developed. These had been in their early forms during Dongwang City’s time, but by this era, holographic simulated games had even emerged, creating an immersive gaming experience.
However, this immersive game was still far from reality. Except for a few games with entirely different worlds of cultivation that Yun Ye occasionally played, he preferred to sit at the computer, using a mouse and keyboard to play games that were quite old compared to this era.
Yun Ye’s cultivation did not heavily engage him; he merely absorbed spirit energy, so he spent most of the past few thousand years like this.
As a result, he interacted with various players and experienced myriad lives.
Though it sounds strange, even in gaming, stretching the timeline to a hundred years or a thousand years resulted in countless stories unfolding…
Yun Ye met many people and shared countless laughs, but he also continuously watched them grow old and die, experiencing the pain of separation. Exciting stories unfolded over these thousands of years. Although Yun Ye’s emotions became increasingly numb and his feelings grew calm and deadened, his belief expanded like never before. He must maintain this era of peace…
“Brother!”
“Shui Changdong!”
Shui Wuge called out several times without receiving a response. She frowned and kicked the door open to enter.
A black-haired youth in pajamas was wearing headphones, playing games in the bright room, his attire looking outdated to the extreme. With immersive technology developed, there was no need for headphones or a display to hear sounds and see images. This was too cumbersome.
“Brother, the Primitive Spiritual Herb research has been completed. Aren’t you going to get moving?”
Shui Wuge crossed her arms, her voice cold.
“Just finished a match; your timing is perfect, Wuge… Let’s mobilize the Divine Army. It’s time for the old powers to withdraw.”
Yun Ye removed his headphones, stretched, and transformed his pajamas into a blue robes, snapping into focus from being a lazy young man.
“It’s already ready.”
Shui Wuge replied.
And so, divine armies descended from the heavens across all ten continents. All existing three heavens level and Royal Path level powers became targets as a major cleanup began.
Even though Heavenly Stem Cave Heaven covered the entire Red Heaven realm, many powers only pretended to submit on the surface while secretly scheming, creating a significant hidden danger.
Yun Ye was willing to learn from history; the First Emperor of Qin failed to eliminate the remnants of the Six Nations, allowing them to accumulate strength, which was one of the major reasons for the downfall of the Qin Dynasty. Although for Yun Ye, these remnants could be easily wiped out and deemed insignificant, the First Emperor had thought the same, yet various factors led to the fall of the Qin.
If he could easily resolve a lurking threat, why not take action?
Yun Ye gave the order to act.
With divine positions and powers comparable to Honored Beings, the Divine Army descended upon the ten continents, sweeping away all resistance. Some deeply hidden powers were uprooted by Yun Ye, turning the ground to rivers of blood.
Yun Ye paid close attention to the Divine Fate organization and specifically invoked Spirit Law for calculations, but unexpectedly, he could not completely locate them, having only destroyed some branches. It seemed that their headquarters was not in the Red Heaven realm and was just as secretive as many self-proclaimed Royal Path powers.
However, that was of no consequence. Yun Ye began to set up formations throughout the entire Red Heaven realm, fundamentally preventing the return of these powers.
Thinking they could safely escape before him was truly absurd!
