Conferred God: Started from Swallowing the Heaven-Repairing Stone

Chapter 43 Currency
Now, it all depends on Ao Bing. As long as he issues a prehistoric currency that is recognized by the mainstream, the Luobao money will immediately abandon Xiao Sheng and Cao Bao and take the initiative to fall into his arms.

This is a treasure obtained by destiny, and it cannot be considered robbery. Even if the news gets out, no one will say that Ao Bing did something wrong. Instead, they will praise him for doing a good job, which greatly promoted the development of Honghuang.

As for Xiao Sheng and Cao Bao's dissatisfaction, what qualifications do they have to be dissatisfied? The Luobao Money has been in their hands for so many years and they have not been able to refine it, which shows that they have no chance of obtaining this treasure.

The greatest treasures of heaven and earth belong to those who are destined to possess them. If you are not destined to possess them, you should give them up as soon as possible. If you are too greedy and want to keep the treasures by force, it is possible that you will lose your life for it under the will of fate.

When practicing spiritual cultivation, the most important thing to avoid is greed. You must never covet things that do not belong to you.

In addition, it was not Ao Bing who snatched the money from the treasure, but Tian Dao. Even if Xiao Sheng and Cao Bao were really dissatisfied, they should blame Tian Dao, not Ao Bing.

From beginning to end, Ao Bing never caused trouble for Xiao Sheng and Cao Bao, nor did he have any intention of stealing the treasure and money.

As for why the Luobao Money would fly into his arms on its own, it was a reward from Heaven for him to issue currency. What did it have to do with him?
It's impossible that Xiao Sheng and Cao Bao can't issue currency themselves, but they don't allow others to do it? How can they do that?

The opportunity is there, so naturally whoever grabs it first will get it.

……

"Issuing currency is easy to say, but it is difficult to do. We need to think about it carefully."

Ao Bing thought of how to get the Luobao Money, but it was not an easy task to put it into practice.

Issuing currency is not difficult, Ao Bing can do it now. The difficult part is that the currency issued must be recognized by the mainstream of the prehistoric world.

What is the mainstream of the prehistoric world? It is not the saints, nor the innate gods and demons, but the countless cultivators. Because their number is the largest, they are the mainstream of the prehistoric world.

No matter what kind of currency it is, it must be recognized by the majority of cultivators before it can be said to be the official currency of the prehistoric world, thereby occupying the prehistoric world's wealth and attracting treasures and money.

However, it is difficult to satisfy everyone. There are countless cultivators in the world, and it is very difficult to gain the recognition of most of them.

Merit can achieve this, and there is almost no cultivator who does not like it. If merit is used as currency, it will definitely be recognized by all cultivators.

But firstly, merit is hard to obtain. Secondly, merit is extremely precious, and few people are willing to trade it.

Merit is too scarce. Using it as currency is a false proposition in itself and has no liquidity.

Apart from Xuanhuang Merit, the only thing that cultivators like is probably spiritual energy, which is the foundation of cultivators. Like oxygen compared to mortals, as long as the path of cultivation is not cut off, no cultivator can live without it.

However, the primitive world has not yet experienced the war of the four saints and has not been broken apart. The spiritual energy between heaven and earth is very abundant and can be found everywhere like oxygen. It would be difficult to use it as currency.

"That's not right. The spiritual energy that can be seen everywhere is acquired spiritual energy. For most ordinary cultivators who have no background, the innate spiritual energy that only exists in famous mountains and rivers is still extremely precious."

"If we use innate spiritual energy as currency, it's not impossible."

After thinking for a while, Ao Bing had a rough idea. The best option before him was to use innate spiritual energy as currency.

In the era of liches and before, innate spiritual energy was not rare, but acquired spiritual energy was quite rare.

But after the Lich Catastrophe, the heaven and earth were shattered, and the innate spiritual energy slowly degenerated into acquired spiritual energy, becoming increasingly scarce.

Today, the only thing that permeates the world is acquired spiritual energy. Only between the famous mountains and rivers does the innate spiritual energy remain.

Innate spiritual energy is very important, because the first condition for becoming an immortal is to cultivate innate energy.

This means that if a cultivator only collects acquired spiritual energy, he or she may not be able to reach the realm of a celestial being until his or her death.

At the same time, immortals must collect innate spiritual energy to practice. If they only rely on acquired spiritual energy, it will not be enough to meet the needs of practice.

If a celestial being constantly inhales and exhales acquired spiritual energy, it will not only damage the body, but also cause the cultivation to regress. "Nowadays, only famous mountains and rivers can contain innate spiritual energy. And famous mountains and rivers are often controlled by the strong."

"Using innate spiritual energy as currency is equivalent to handing over the right to mint coins to them. This is actually a good thing because it benefits them."

"In this case, even if it is only for their own benefit, they will vigorously promote this matter, which will save me the trouble."

The more he thought about it, the more Ao Bing felt that this method was feasible. Anyway, his purpose in promoting currency was not to control the right to mint coins, but to seize the wealth of the prehistoric world and obtain the money of falling treasures.

In this case, it makes no difference to him who holds the right to mint coins, as long as his goal is achieved.

It's not that Ao Bing doesn't want to get involved in the coinage rights, but people should know themselves. Who is he? He is not even a Taiyi Golden Immortal, so how dare he get involved in the coinage rights?

This is not the way to seek death. Do you really think that all the strong people in this world are just here to eat and do nothing?
Ao Bing only needs to honestly propose the concept of currency. The rest, who will be responsible for minting and how to issue currency, has nothing to do with him.

This is something that the Jade Emperor, the Human King, and all the other powerful beings need to consider. If Ao Bing wants to intervene, he should wait until he becomes a Daluo Golden Immortal.

The weak have no human rights. Being able to take the credit for taking the initiative is already the result of heaven's protection. We cannot ask for too much more.

"The innate spiritual energy is all in gaseous form. If you want to turn it into currency, it's not difficult. You just need to condense it into a ball. The one with low content is liquid, which is spiritual liquid. The one with high content is solid, which is spiritual crystal."

All the novels he read in his previous life were not read in vain. Ao Bing stretched out his hand and grabbed a ball of innate spiritual energy from nearby. After refining it with fairy fire, it soon turned into a drop of liquid and a piece of colorless crystal.

The liquid is spiritual liquid, which is the lowest level of currency. The innate spiritual energy contained in it is equivalent to the result of a year of hard practice of a normal celestial being.

Crystal is spirit crystal, which is the product of further condensation of spirit liquid. One spirit crystal is equivalent to one hundred drops of spirit liquid.

Of course, there is no limit to the number of spirit crystals, and they can still be condensed. One hundred spirit crystals can produce one innate spirit essence.

The innate spiritual marrow can be said to be a treasure. It can not only be used for cultivation, but also for refining magic weapons.

Spiritual liquid, spiritual crystal, and spiritual marrow correspond to the three realms of celestial immortal, mysterious immortal, and golden immortal respectively.

As long as they can find enough innate spiritual energy, the celestial immortals can condense it into spiritual liquid, the mysterious immortals can condense it into spiritual crystals, and the golden immortals can condense it into spiritual marrow.

"The three currencies do meet the needs of the Celestial Immortal realm, but it is not enough. We also need to take into account those above and below the Celestial Immortal realm."

Ao Bing wanted to continue to condense the innate spiritual essence, to further sublimate it, and turn it into the currency used by Taiyi Jinxian. But unfortunately, he failed.

The celestial being is the limit of Qi refining. Taiyi is another level that involves the mysteries of the great way and rules, and it cannot be achieved by simply accumulating spiritual energy.

The path of Taiyi and beyond is more about perception. If you have perception, then you have perception. If you can’t, then no matter how much spiritual energy you have, you can’t break through.

"It's still because I don't have enough luck. If I had enough luck, how could I not think of a solution?"

The currency below the level of celestial beings is easy to formulate, but above the level of celestial beings, when it comes to the mysteries of Taiyi, Ao Bing is somewhat unsure.

It's not that he can't condense the power of Taiyi level, but the power he condenses is too assimilative and can only be used by a fixed group, not most people.

If others absorbed the Taiyi power he condensed, they would uncontrollably transform into human dragons.

For Ao Bing's descendants, this was a good thing and there was nothing wrong with it. But for outsiders, it was a little hard to accept.

Therefore, the Taiyi power he condensed cannot be used as currency at all.

After trying several times, he always failed. In the end, Ao Bing attributed all the problems to lack of luck.
