You, a druid, go to practice Taoism?.

Chapter 403: The Big Explosion!
"The decline caused by the death of more than half of the high-level cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage should be able to be overcome soon, judging from the current situation!"

The battle some time ago resulted in devastating losses for the Star Sea Continent. More than half of the highest-level cultivators on the Star Sea Continent, from Nascent Soul to Void Refinement cultivators, perished.

Although the spiritual essence transformed from their corpses, under Qi Ping's treatment, further enhanced the spiritual veins, the spiritual veins would quickly decline if not enough powerful individuals were born within the Star Sea Continent in the short term.

Given the current number of spiritual veins distributed across the Nine Domains of the Star Sea, the required spiritual support is also enormous.

The current prosperity hides a very obvious crisis, but only Qi Ping knows about it. Although Meng Tianqi and others know some of it, they don't know it so clearly. The problem is very complicated. Only Qi Ping, as an Earth Immortal Druid, has achieved a certain degree of integration with heaven and earth, which allows him to deeply understand the relationship between them.

Although Qi Ping's current level of integration is not high, the complexity of the world itself is too great, and it is already a miracle that he has been able to integrate to this state at his current level.

For the next period of time, the cultivators who joined the Nine Realms of the Star Sea were all driven by the allure of their future prospects, their expectations for their future lives, and the external pressure from the Demon Clan, and they all devoted themselves to the frenzied construction.

Large numbers of spiritual fields were quickly cultivated and nurtured into incredibly fertile spiritual fields.

Among the most noteworthy achievements are the numerous highly skilled methods for cultivating spiritual fields contributed by various cultivators. These methods have enabled the transformation of many previously barren lands into fertile spiritual fields.

These methods combined directly increased the total amount of spiritual fields in the Nine Realms of the Star Sea by at least 30% compared to the original plan!
And this number is still increasing!

What even alarmed Qi Ping was the method for cultivating the Zhou Tian Star Spirit Field, which was provided by Shennong Daoren, a Nascent Soul cultivator who was proficient in formations.

He has an outstanding talent for array formations, but he has a particular fondness for farming. Due to the lack of high-grade spiritual fields, he is unable to experiment with and cultivate many of his precious spiritual plants and herbs through hybridization.

Unable to compete for high-level spirit fields due to his own strength, this person began to collect various methods for improving spirit fields.

Now, he has spent most of his life cultivating the Starry Sky Technique and comprehending the Way of the Stars. Finally, after comprehending the unparalleled method, he created the "Zhou Tian Xing Chen Chuang Di Fa" (Circular Starry Sky Earth Cultivation Method)!
According to this land reclamation method, as long as a small amount of spirit stones and spiritual energy are used, along with a special spiritual soil cultivation recipe, spiritual fields suitable for celestial spirit plants can be gradually cultivated.

However, this method of cultivating spiritual fields is quite difficult and takes a long time.

But this was no problem for Qi Ping at all. With his current wealth and array strength, this difficulty was nothing.

Moreover, after witnessing this person's method, Qi Ping was extremely shocked, because the amount of spiritual energy required was extremely low, yet the quality of the cultivated star-type spiritual herbs was exceptionally high.

Shennong Daoren also used this method to secretly rise from an ordinary Qi Refining cultivator to become the renowned Shennong Daoren.

However, there is a drawback: this kind of spiritual field must be planted with spiritual herbs that have been crossbred and cultivated through countless experiments. Normal spiritual herbs are difficult to survive in this kind of spiritual field, and it is best to cultivate special techniques to refine these spiritual herbs.
To some extent, Shennong Daoren has almost formed his own system, which is why Qi Ping attaches so much importance to him.

Because most of the cultivation techniques in the Star Sea Continent are based on spiritual power. Even star-related cultivation techniques must use powerful spiritual power as a carrier to fuse with the power of stars. Spiritual power is the core and source of fusing and leveraging the power of heaven and earth.

However, Shennong Daoren's cultivation method is almost entirely based on the purest stellar power, with spiritual power only playing a minor role in harmonizing and lubricating.

This undoubtedly opened up a new continent for the Star Sea Continent, which lacks spiritual energy.

Because what the Star Sea Continent lacks least now is the power of stars, the sun, and the moon that shines throughout the myriad worlds.

The reason why these powers have been used in a limited way in the past is mainly because they are too difficult to comprehend and utilize. Even though it is possible to cultivate a spiritual power system, no one has studied how to perfectly utilize the power of stars when spiritual energy is scarce.

However, the Star Sea Continent is now facing the predicament of declining spiritual energy. Eventually, someone has found a way forward, but no one knows about it yet.

Qi Ping also felt that this system was worth trying, and that it could be developed from the power of stars to the power of the sun and the power of the moon.

In this way, when these forces are introduced into the Star Sea Continent on a large scale, it may bring great benefits to the development of heaven and earth.

Therefore, Qi Ping had Lin Yue personally receive this Shennong Taoist and offered him a huge reward.

Qi Ping also spent a little time specifically deduce some similar methods and formations involving the three forces, and asked Shennong Daoren to establish a new organization to try this out.

However, this is just a small attempt. The path of spiritual power cultivation is still the orthodox one. With spiritual power still abundant, pursuing pure star power cultivation is putting the cart before the horse.

However, this path is worth trying. If successful, it might make the cultivation system of the Star Sea Continent even more brilliant in the future.

For Qi Ping, the most important thing was that it provided an idea and a direction.

Because in his view now, this world is incredibly complex, possessing endless mysterious powers, and spiritual power is just one of them.

Moreover, as his cultivation level improved, Qi Ping increasingly felt the mystery and vastness of this great world.

Even the spiritual power system is not the only path to immortality; there may be a system stronger than the spiritual power system. It's just that his current vision and knowledge are still too narrow.

Therefore, Qi Ping has always maintained a spirit of exploration into the essence of this world. Whether it is the Dao Heart system, the spiritual power system, or the Earth Immortal system or the Heaven and Earth Living Beings system, this power system is intertwined and forms a puzzle of how he utilizes the power of this world.

Qi Ping is increasingly realizing that this world may be far more mysterious and vast than he imagined, and the Qi Refining cultivation system may only be one branch of it, perhaps not the strongest, or perhaps it has its own flaws.
However, he could not determine the truth of these matters, but he vaguely gleaned some information from the Great Dao.

Therefore, Qi Ping has always maintained his spirit of exploration towards this world, in order to find the true path to immortality and longevity in the future.

In order to be able to find ways to deal with and counter when the spiritual power system is restricted or targeted, Qi Ping also did not believe that after so many years in the cultivation world, no one would have developed a power and system specifically to restrain spiritual power.

Therefore, Qi Ping is now very willing to let the cultivators of the Star Sea Continent make these attempts for him, and he also strongly supports them in making their efforts flourish.

Now that the Star Sea Continent is entirely under his control, what he desires is to leverage the collective wisdom of all cultivators on the continent to pave a truly powerful path to immortality. An individual's power is ultimately limited, but the power of a continent's cultivators is limitless!
Rather than engaging in short-sighted practices like devouring the life forms of an entire continent, Qi Ping preferred to have cultivators from an entire continent work together to explore this world for him!
What he needs to do now is to establish the most stable system for him to pursue the path to immortality.

The Earth Immortal system allows him to have an invincible home and an environment to explore the world, while the ruling system allows him to utilize the wisdom of all cultivators on the continent.

Now he has provided the people of this world with a good environment and a system for advancement, and all they need to do is focus on developing this world for him.

If he acquires power and cultivation systems from other worlds in the future, he will try to promote them to some extent in this world, injecting new vitality and introducing new advancement strategies.
"This world is perhaps countless times more wonderful than I imagined."

"But my strength alone is not enough; I need the strongest support."

The path revealed by Shennong Daoren is surprising, but it is only a small microcosm of the current state of the Nine Realms of the Star Sea.

Even Shennong Daoren was merely a small microcosm of the spiritual field industry.

After gathering the wisdom of countless cultivators, various industries experienced explosive growth.

The entire Qing Shen Army and Qing Yuan Academy were extremely busy with this.

But no one complained; on the contrary, they enjoyed it immensely.

Because everyone knows that, given the current trend, the future development of the Nine Realms of the Star Sea will reach an incredibly astonishing level!

It even surpasses any era in the history of the Star Sea Continent!
And when they encounter someone like Bee Taoist, they are bound to be able to get an unimaginable share of the spoils.

No one doubted this: Bee Daoren was the best leader they had ever seen!
Especially when news of breakthroughs and developments comes from various industries, the already high spirits are pushed to an unimaginable level.

Those industries and groups that failed to make breakthroughs now felt ashamed, especially when they saw those who were receiving so many awards that they were extremely envious!

So they worked just as hard, not to lose face, and also for the generous reward!
Therefore, after the first wave of growth, various industries did not show signs of decline; on the contrary, they experienced an even more vibrant atmosphere.

The most prominent of these is the elixir industry.

Because the elixir industry has always been the industry pursued by all cultivators, its overall development has always been the best, and it is also the area where cultivators devote the most energy.

Therefore, due to the various rewards, countless miraculous alchemy techniques and formulas were brought out this time.

When these alchemy techniques and formulas collided, these alchemists, who gathered the highest talent, also ushered in an epic upgrade.

It's also worth mentioning that while contributing pill recipes can earn you a lot of contribution points and rewards, exchanging them for pill recipes and alchemy skills also requires some contribution points.

Although the contribution points aren't much, there are a lot of things you can exchange for them!

So after a while, Qi Ping not only didn't lose out on the rewards, but actually made a lot of spirit stones for free!

Qi Ping also acquired a large amount of alchemy techniques, formulas, and knowledge about elixirs for free, and then handed them all over to the Golden Marrow Bees. After the bees, possessing collective intelligence, digested this knowledge of elixirs, their honey-making skills would inevitably rise to another level.

Because Qi Ping now has a large number of Nascent Soul level bees and Divine Transformation level bees, through years of joint research and inheritance by tens of thousands of bees, they have mastered more alchemy knowledge than any alchemist on the Star Sea Continent today.

Now they can even refine solid honey that's just like a pill, or it might not even be honey at all—it could be a pill! And a pill that's even better than ordinary pills!

The Golden Marrow Bees are the biggest beneficiaries of this knowledge convergence and exchange.

However, those alchemists didn't lose out either. They gained more than ten times the knowledge by contributing their own, and also received preferential knowledge exchange and special honey samples provided by Qi Ping.

Once these alchemists have digested all of this information, they will surely be able to elevate their alchemy skills to an unprecedented level.

And this is just the beginning.

The establishment of the Pill Pavilion, which brings together alchemists from all over the world, has led to a collision of knowledge and a powerful training system, making the future of the Pill Pavilion even more promising!
Furthermore, the explosive growth of the elixir industry benefits not only the elixir industry itself, because the elixir industry is the solution to various cultivation problems and is most closely related to the fate of cultivators!
Therefore, when all sorts of elixirs emerge and are promoted at reasonable prices, the biggest beneficiaries are actually ordinary cultivators!

Some of them had incurable hidden injuries from the past, some had unresolved flaws in their cultivation, some were poisoned and could not be cured, and some had reached a bottleneck in their cultivation and could not break through.
But it’s different now!

When these pills with various special medicinal effects appeared on the market at normal prices, many cultivators completed their final breakthroughs under the influence of these pills, and their cultivation levels were greatly improved!
In an instant, every cultivator realized the benefits brought about by the Bee Daoist's actions.

Is there a more praiseworthy life than one where hard work pays off, one has a safe environment for cultivation and living, and one can buy suitable cultivation elixirs?

How could such an environment not motivate them!

At the same time, my admiration and respect for Bee Taoist grew stronger and stronger!
"Senior Bee Taoist, you must live forever and be invincible!"

"I have never admired anyone in my life, except for Senior Bee!"

Secondly, in terms of industrial development prosperity, the weapon crafting industry and spiritual agriculture are second only to the elixir industry.

Other industries, while not as prosperous as they are now, still bring great convenience to the cultivation and lives of ordinary cultivators, forming the current prosperous landscape of the Nine Realms of the Star Sea and jointly creating a myth of development.
Finally, what excited Qi Ping was that, while good news kept coming from the development of the Nine Realms of the Star Sea, he finally found a suitable new animal companion!
