Cultivation begins with separation.

Chapter 120 Four Great Spiritual Lands
When Yi Qing came back this time, he brought back a large amount of blood and flesh tissue from spirit beasts that were still alive.

Originally, these were materials for studying how to mutate the two-clawed white snake into an auspicious beast.

However, after listening to Yi Dong's words, Yi Qing left these things behind and left in a hurry.

Now, what she needs are various bugs and information.

She gave all the blood of spiritual beasts that she had worked so hard to find to Yi Dong.

Of course, Yi Dong also opened the spirit stone warehouse in Zijin Mountain to her, allowing her to use it at will.

See the spiritual beast materials that Yi Qing found.

Yi Dong vaguely understood why Yi Qing was suspended.

Even if Yi Qing had the ability to obtain the blood and body tissues of millions of high-level spirit beasts and dozens of spirit beasts with true spirit bloodlines, it was definitely not something she could gather in just a few years as an immortal official.

Obviously, in order to collect these spirit beast materials, she probably did a lot of things that were against the rules.

Yi Dong remembered that Yi Feng had mentioned once that Yi Qing seemed to have a lot of bad debts and owed an unknown amount of spirit stones. Some forces had even come to him. Yi Dong was not sure whether what Yi Feng said was true, but this time when Yi Qing saw the spirit stone reserves of Zijin Mountain, he only took a part of it and did not mention the debt.

Maybe what Yi Feng said was just hearsay.

Yi Dong helped Yi Qing study the mother nest and gave her free use of the spiritual stones from Zijin Mountain.

On the one hand, it’s because of her identity.

No matter what, Yi Qing is Yi Dong's favorite daughter.

Another reason is Yidong’s own selfish motive.

Not only in the Tiandu spiritual world, but also in all the heavens and worlds and even the highest fairyland, if you want to become an immortal, you probably need chance, understanding, talent, walking on the right path, as well as perseverance and firm belief and other factors, to get a glimmer of hope of becoming an immortal in the competition for the great way.

As for Yi Dong, the only thing he has is comprehension, and he lacks other qualities.

If he had great perseverance and firm belief, he would probably have been a successful person before his reincarnation.

As for opportunities, he stayed in Purple Mountain all year round and basically did not go on adventures or travel. Unless opportunities dropped from the sky, he would not get many opportunities.

Talent, natural spiritual roots are considered good talent for cultivation.

But compared with those who have both natural spiritual roots and powerful spiritual bodies, his talent is just ordinary.

As for walking on the right path, he was a wild cultivator who was neither an immortal official nor a member of a Taoist temple, so he really wasn't sure whether his path of cultivation was off track or not.

This is also the reason why Yi Dong never dared to hope that he could become an immortal.

If people like him who just muddle through can become immortals, then true immortals would be everywhere in the fairy world long ago.

There was basically no hope of becoming an immortal through the conventional route, so Yi Dong naturally needed to think of other ways.

The essence of cultivation is nothing but evolution.

However, evolution does not necessarily have to rely on only one method, which is cultivation.

Yi Dong studies biology out of interest and also to expand his future a little bit.

In the past life, there was a concept called genetic lock in genes.

If one day, he could understand the genetic lock and continue to push his body beyond its limits, it would definitely be a path to becoming an immortal.

Studying gene locks is a long process.

The short-term goal, or in other words, Yidong’s only goal for thousands of years, is to use biotechnology to create “devil eggs” with strong environmental adaptability.

The devil eggs imagined in the previous life can allow the little devil to continuously evolve into other types of devils.

Yi Dong wanted to research this kind of "devil egg" that could more easily break through genes and carry out various adaptive evolutions.

To do this requires a long period of time to collect various biological samples.

By leading Yi Qing onto this path, he could ask her to help him collect various biological samples in the future.

As long as the mother nest is strong enough to satisfy Yi Qing, she will naturally devote herself to collecting various samples for research.

In this way, Yidong might not have to spend time and effort collecting various creatures himself.

While helping Yi Qing, you are also helping yourself.

Otherwise, why would Yi Dong, who has always been a bit selfish, give so much to Yi Qing.

Achieving the "Will of the Abyss" was a somewhat unrealistic dream that Yi Dong set one day in order to avoid appearing too insignificant.

Because it is too unrealistic, he will not give his all to achieve it.

If it was really too difficult to achieve, Yi Dong, who didn't have much perseverance, could only accept the fate of being buried underground and sleeping.

In the four directions of Zijin Mountain, soil began to be piled up to form mountains.

Since the salary offered by the Yi family was good this time, almost all the independent cultivators and mortals in Xia County who wanted to earn spirit stones, gold and silver gathered at these four huge construction sites.

On three of the construction sites, there were hundreds or even thousands of Yi family cultivators or some mortal scholars from Jinshan City holding blueprints to instruct teams of cultivators on how to pile up soil and stones.

These four spiritual veins, although called spiritual veins, are actually large functional spiritual places that are powered by the spiritual veins.

Among them, Yi Jun built the Tomb of the Swords of the Heavens.

The sword tomb needs to lock the soul and nourish the sword soul, so it is very troublesome to build.

The direction of the spiritual vein and the design of each tomb chamber require a lot of calculations.

Yi Jun said that in the future he would not only use this sword tomb to nurture his flying sword, but also to bury the corpses of some powerful enemies in it, and use the bodies and souls of those powerful creatures to hone his flying sword.

Finally, in the message, Yi Jun also joked with Yi Dong that his goal was to bury all the heavens and worlds in it and use each world to raise the sword.

Regardless of whether Yi Jun was joking or dreaming about it, Yi Dong was also very concerned about the design of the sword tomb. After all, Yi Jun had prepared too many resources, and Yi Dong didn't want to make things too ugly for his own child.

The construction of each tomb requires a lot of spiritual objects to be refined into various magical instruments, which are precise and luxurious.

At present, the sword tomb needs to design at least tens of millions of tombs, burying swords and living beings. The workload is too large, so Yi Dong not only asked a large number of Yi family cultivators to act as designers, but also hired a large number of mortal scholars from Jinshan City to help.

The spiritual vein of Yi Ling is called Dajue Lingshan.

The Dajue Lingshan Mountain is also crowded with busy immortal cultivators.

Compared with the Sword Tomb, there are many more workshops with billowing smoke here.

Dajue Lingshan, in general, is a landmark building of a Buddhist temple. It has basically all the necessary features. In addition, there is also the Evil Buddha Forest which consists of tens of millions of Buddha statues.

Yi Ling did not tell the specific purpose of the evil Buddha forest composed of tens of millions of Buddha statues. He just asked Yi Dong to use special methods and special materials to build tens of millions of Buddha statues of various shapes and place them in it.

Each of the tens of millions of Buddha statues is made of different materials. The difficulty of refining is not high but it is extremely demanding on one’s patience.

I don’t know what Yi Ling is thinking. The tolerance rate for mistakes in the refining of each Buddha statue is extremely low.

The materials needed to make a Buddha statue range from thousands to tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands.

According to Yi Ling's standards, a Buddha statue would be scrapped if there was an extra line on its robes or an extra grain of spiritual gold in the Buddha's eye.

Yidong can complete this complex task with pinpoint accuracy.

But it takes a lot of time.

Yi Dong was extremely annoyed with this kind of work which did not require much technical skills and was a waste of time, so he outsourced the business of making Buddha statues and asked those independent practitioners to make them.

If you let the practitioners do the production, there will always be more failed products than finished ones.

By the time tens of millions of Buddha statues are refined, the failed ones may have piled up into a mountain taller than Mount Dajue Lingshan.

Generally speaking, the cost for an independent practitioner to make a Buddha statue could be hundreds or even thousands of times higher than that of Yi Dong alone.

However, after making a deal with the Lijiang demon clan, Yi Ling probably won't be too short of spirit stones, so Yi Dong no longer cares about the cost issue.

Compared with Yi Jun and Yi Ling's spiritual veins, Yi Feng's spiritual vein is the simplest.

It is planting trees.

However, when the scale becomes larger, the project will become no longer small.

In Yi Feng's Time Jungle, no spiritual plants are planted, only ordinary trees.

He sent more and more tree seeds to Purple Mountain.

If Yi Feng’s Time Jungle is completed, half of Xia County may become a forest environment.

With such a large area, Yi Dong naturally doesn’t have that many spirit stones to buy the land.

These lands were all bought by Yi Feng himself.

Yi Dong didn't know how many spirit stones he had used to buy these lands.

At the beginning, Yi Dong persuaded Yi Feng. At that time, he was in a jungle and did not dare to involve too much technology, as the main cost was the land cost.

The population of the Immortal Kingdom has skyrocketed every year, so many new counties or groups are opened up in every state of the Immortal Kingdom every year.

Wouldn't it save nearly a thousand times the cost to buy land in those newly developed counties?
Moreover, although Xia County has abundant water resources, they are not sufficient to supply a huge forest.

However, Yi Feng told Yi Dong that he would not need to pay too many spirit stones when purchasing land without spirit veins through the Taoist temple.

Since Yi Feng insisted, Yi Dong just let him do it.

For the sake of the Time Forest, Zijin Mountain hired all the mortals in Lianxia County. As long as they planted a certain number of saplings, they could get a specified amount of gold and silver. Each hilltop or even mountain range was contracted to a mortal family or village.

The task of planting trees is basically left to mortals, while the cultivators are mainly responsible for digging various artificial rivers.

In order to get enough water, they even drew water from an inland lake as big as the ocean on a huge snow-capped mountain several counties away.

It can be said that the Time Jungle project alone supports almost all the people in Xia County.

This project started at least a hundred years ago.

The third-level spiritual vein in the Time Forest, the main function of the spiritual energy is to ensure the fertility of the land. Perhaps hundreds of years later, when there is enough humus in the land, the spiritual vein will no longer be needed to ensure the fertility of the land.

Once the Time Jungle is built, the environment of Xia County may change as a result.

Yi Dong felt that building the spirit veins of the three children would consume more spirit stones than building a fourth-level spirit vein.

The fourth-level spiritual vein mainly consumes a lot of high-level resources. Other than that, the spiritual vein does not consume much.

Yi Dong asked other people in Zijin Mountain to look after the spiritual veins of Yi Jun and the other two.

Yi Dong personally guided Yi Qing's spiritual vein.

Yi Dong designed Yi Qing's spiritual vein into a ten-direction insect domain, intending to plant various spiritual plants needed by insects in it.

The insect domain needs to consider the ecological balance of insects and the environmental structure of various different insects.

The construction of the insect domain needs to be constantly improved, and it depends on what kind of insects Yiqing can get.

Moreover, the Insect Realm will probably need more spirit veins and even various spirit mineral veins in the future.

Yi Feng's Time Forest is also used by Yi Dong as a breeding ground for common insects.

In the future, Yi Dong would no longer consider whether the poisonous insects flying all over Xia County would squeeze the living space of humans.

Yi Jun and the other three are all celestial officials. As long as they don't actively massacre the human race, there should be no problem with Zijin Mountain, right?
For the construction of the insect domain, Yi Dong only built a model. He didn't know much about the information about the insects. He could only start transforming the environment and designing the formation after Yi Qing brought back various information about the insects.

The Infinite Sword Tomb, the Time Jungle, the Ten Directions Insect Territory, and the Great Awakening Spirit Mountain guard the four sides of Purple Gold Mountain.

When we have enough power in the future, the four spirit veins will also be connected using formations.

In this way, the four major spiritual veins can be located in the four directions to protect Zijin Mountain.
