Died of old age, and you tell me this is a life simulation?

This is the advantage of martial arts sects and families that pass down martial arts, which other forces do not have.

Therefore, even with the blessing of huge resources, if you want to truly succeed in cultivation, it depends on your personal luck. Even if you are an emperor, a ruler of a country, or a wealthy person, there are very few who can truly practice to the depths of the art. They are rare!

Apart from the first two categories, there are the common people of the world.

This type of group has neither the martial arts background of martial arts sects nor the resources of wealthy families, princes and nobles. Even their survival is a huge problem. Even if there are martial arts methods circulating in the world, how much relevance can they have to most of them?

Learning martial arts is so difficult.

It is just a simple training of the body. There is a saying that the martial arts such as horizontal training and external training are poor in literature and rich in martial arts. Without sufficient food resources, what martial arts can you practice?

Not to mention the methods of internal power and the way of true qi. The knowledge involved in these methods is beyond the reach of ordinary people. Even the well-educated people have to learn the basics of martial arts, the meridian system, and the knowledge of acupoints first. Only then can they meet the prerequisites and be qualified to practice advanced martial arts. If they have to do this, what about the illiterate people!?

Again, even if you put the secret manual of magical skills in front of them, they will not be able to practice it.

At most, they would practice some martial arts that did not emphasize internal strength, but these were superficial studies and it would be difficult to achieve anything even if they practiced for a lifetime.

Not everyone has Shi Potian's extraordinary luck, unreasonable innate understanding, innocent heart and clear mind, and sincere way.

certainly......

It doesn't mean that there can't be martial arts masters among this group of people.

As the largest group, there are naturally countless martial arts masters rising up, but compared with their population base, it is simply not worth mentioning.

Are they inferior to the previous two types of people?

Naturally not.

Aren't the geniuses of martial arts sects ultimately drawn from the common people? Aren't some of the so-called aristocratic families, powerful individuals, landlords, princes, nobles, and so on, also individuals who rose from the common people and transcended class boundaries?

It can even be said that the first two categories originated from this.

Ultimately, the reason for this difference is the environment.

As the saying goes, the talent of one county is enough to rule the world.

In other words, there are definitely people with outstanding talent in martial arts in a county, and their number is not small.

The key is that there is no such way.

Chapter 525: Planning and Calculation! Anticipation! Resource Consumption!

In such a secular context, in the third round of simulation, even in the middle and late stages of the simulation, the methods of martial arts circulated widely, but the number of people who could truly learn martial arts and practice martial arts was still a minority.

This is also the case for the methods of internal force.

Not to mention the method of reaching the state of true Qi that transcends the constraints of the world.

In the final stage, above the Cangwu Pavilion, the fifth floor seemed to have added a lot of foundation, but in fact the potential of the people in the world had not been tapped at all.

Can this really be called the crystallization of the wisdom of all people in the world?

If you look closely, it can only be said to be a small part, or even a very small part.

Therefore, in this fourth round of simulation, Fang Han’s goal is very clear.

That is, on the premise of ensuring that a new route can be tried to change the dynasty, ascend the throne and govern the world, it is also necessary to promote the promotion and popularization of martial arts to a greater extent.

Therefore, the school system, barracks training, military academy, spiritual plant and species promotion plan, elixir research and development, alchemist training...

All the plans and arrangements are paving the way for this matter and laying the foundation for the future!

And so far, everything can be said to be going smoothly.

The territory of the Song Dynasty was completely under his control. Daqian founded the country and established its system. The people's livelihood gradually improved, the illiteracy rate began to drop significantly, and the basic methods of martial arts gradually began to spread to all aspects.

In the future, empires like the Liao, Jin, Western Xia, and Tubo... and even the entire world will be annexed. Martial arts will spread throughout the world, and people will all practice martial arts, using elixirs to speed up their cultivation. What will the situation be like then? And how much benefit will it bring to him?

This is not only to truly gather the wisdom of the world to promote the development of martial arts; it is also to seek the development of the mythical talent of [Martial Ancestor] to obtain the magic of feedback; it is also a plan for the talent of life simulation.

What kind of benefits will there be when everything is over?

Even Fang Han was a little unsure and was looking forward to it.

Cheng Lingsu smiled slightly, her beautiful face filled with tenderness. She nodded gently and said, "During this period, the promotion of spiritual plants and exotic species has achieved good results. Jiangnan, Jinghu, and Liangzhe areas are all starting to get on track. After a while, it should be fully promoted. The Imperial Hospital has also trained many pharmacists who can refine pills."

As she spoke, she sighed softly, "It's just that... although they can produce a lot of elixirs, it's not even a drop in the bucket when it comes to the millions of students in Daqian. Even if they only supply the sect internally, it's still a bit inadequate and barely enough."

Moreover, the current number of students is still underestimated. In Daqian, the population exceeds tens of millions. Schools have been built in many places in the south, but the north was just conquered not long ago and they cannot be built so quickly. It is better to say that there are actually many shortcomings in the south, and there is a serious shortage of teaching staff. In addition, Daqian has just been founded. Although the sect has accumulated extremely strong foundation over the years, when looking at the entire Daqian, the consumption of a country is naturally seriously insufficient.

First of all, in terms of people's livelihood management, a large number of extremely poor people and refugees in various places need to be resettled in the early stage and provided with food and supplies. They can only stop their work when the fields allocated to them have a harvest, which is a huge expense.

And military spending is even more exaggerated!

First, there is the resource consumption of the new recruit camps in various places. They spend a month training, learning martial arts, literacy, military tactics, etc., and eating three times a day. After that, they will be officially transferred to Daqian soldiers, and they will have to pay monthly salaries, subsidies, clothing, food, etc. Can you imagine the expenses?

The second is the consumption of various regular armies, which is even more serious.

Armor, weapons, ordnance, food, supplies...

The cost of an elite soldier is several times that of a new soldier, or even more than ten times.

The consumption in the army can be described as a gold-devouring beast!

Moreover, the construction of the school requires a lot of resources to maintain the training of such a large number of students.

Although the resource consumption is not as great as that of the Daqian soldiers, this group has a large number of people, and the number is still increasing.

In addition to the above three types, the official system consumption of local government offices and the Daqian court center is also a huge expense.

This also includes the expenditure on local governance work and various infrastructure investments...

Daqian consumes enormous resources every moment.

If it weren't for the fact that the dual blessing of [Founder of Sect] and [Leader of Power] had some bugs, the foundation accumulated by the sect over the years would indeed be extremely strong. If it were replaced by an ordinary country, it would have collapsed countless times.

Moreover, even Daqian did not rely entirely on past accumulations. It would definitely not be able to withstand this level of consumption. It also had a method similar to fighting to support fighting. The rapid expansion of its territory, coupled with the huge resources and wealth confiscated from local families, powerful people, and landlords, plus the stored material resources in the provincial capital cities, and the continuous supply from the three major bases of Tianshan, Zizhou, and Chengdu Prefecture, as well as the subsequent governance work and the resource harvest after the first two or three months, all these accumulations together were enough to barely maintain the situation and barely achieve a balance between income and expenditure, or a positive balance at that.

Right now, everywhere needs to spend money, use food, and consume supplies, so the promotion of spiritual plants and exotic species is naturally quite limited. Even if it is not restricted, there are actually many difficulties and hardships.

For example, the conditions for cultivating spiritual plant species are relatively harsh. Not only are spiritual plant species demanding of the environment, but they also place relatively harsh demands on the abilities of the breeders.

Of course, we have overcome the difficult initial period and have achieved remarkable results. Now it is easy to promote the product. However, although the raw materials have been obtained, how to make these materials into pills that can be taken is another difficult point.

The elixir formula developed by Cheng Lingsu is naturally extremely exquisite, and its efficacy is extraordinary. However, to reach the level of ability to refine the elixir she developed requires considerable effort.

Although there are many female disciples with talents in medicine and pharmacology who have been transferred to study within the sect, and many alchemy experts have been trained over the years, the output of their elixirs cannot even supply the sect, let alone the huge army, student groups, and the millions of people in the future Daqian.

Chapter 526: A shortcut to trade quality for output!

Refining elixirs is not a simple matter. The combination and blending of various medicinal materials can lead to huge mistakes even with a slight mistake.

The more miraculous the elixir, the more so.

For example, the main and auxiliary materials required for refining the two elixirs, [Red Clam Elixir] and [Ice Silkworm Elixir], are all extremely poisonous substances and various strange and exotic poisons.

The poison of the red clam and the ice silkworm are both at the level of the king of all poisons. There is also the poison of the seven-hearted crabapple flower, which is of the same level, as a medicine lead to reconcile the various toxicities and medicinal properties, neutralize them, and make a panacea.

If there is a slight mismatch in the proportions or errors in the process, it will have a great impact on the medicinal properties and efficacy of the final pill.

The reduction in the medicinal power is a small matter. There is a high probability that it will become an extremely toxic pill!

Only someone with extraordinary medical skills like Cheng Lingsu can develop the medicine from scratch, make the pill, and then mature the formula, all at his will. However, for others, even if they have master-level medical skills, it is very difficult to do it. Even if they follow the recipe, it is not an easy task.

The alchemists specially trained within the sect have made great progress over the years under the mysterious blessing of the [Founder of the Sect], and have been specially taught and carefully trained by Cheng Lingsu. They can now master the methods and tricks of refining pills. However, even for them, it is hard to say how many pills they can refine.

As mentioned before, when it comes to refining elixirs, even the slightest mistake can lead to a huge error.

Even if you have mastered the refining method, it does not mean that you can easily refine real pills.

The process in between also requires concentration and meticulousness, and it is a slow and careful process.

Overall, the output of elixirs is actually very low.

Cheng Lingsu was exaggerating when she said that the sect was unable to supply the internal supplies.

In fact, in recent years, most of the elixirs for the core members of the sect came from Cheng Lingsu's refining. Only in the past one or two years, with the improvement of the training of alchemists, the proportion has dropped slightly.

At present, there is still a severe shortage of alchemists.

"I've been thinking about it carefully recently, and it's not that there isn't a simpler method that can greatly reduce the difficulty of refining and significantly increase the output. It's just that this method is too rough in treating the medicinal properties, which will greatly reduce the medicinal power and accumulate some toxicity. Moreover, pills like the Red Hali Elixir and the Ice Silkworm Elixir, which are made entirely of poison, cannot be used." Cheng Lingsu frowned and continued.

Although pills such as the Essence-Nourishing Pill, the Qi-Invigorating Pill, and the Spirit-Cunning Pill contain the snake gall of the Bosuqu snake as the main ingredient, the other medicinal materials required for refining are not poisons. The toxicity of the snake gall of the Bosuqu snake alone can actually be overcome.

After all, this thing can be taken directly, as long as it is not excessive, then the medicinal power will outweigh the toxicity, and it is a tonic. The refining of the elixir can neutralize this part of the toxicity, making it non-toxic, and at the same time, it can also exert its medicinal effect of nourishing the spirit to a greater extent. When combined with other spiritual plants and medicinal materials, it can stimulate different specialized effects!

The refining of this type of elixir is not that demanding. It's not that the refining method is not demanding, but even if there are mistakes in the refining and the proportions of the medicinal materials are wrong, it will at most affect the quality of the final elixir. The efficacy may be greatly reduced, and some toxicity may remain, but there will be no problem if taken normally.

The Red Clam Elixir and the Ice Silkworm Elixir are different. If there is even a slight mistake, the harmony of the medicinal power and properties will no longer exist, and the toxicity will be accumulated, making the poison even more poisonous!

This is a taboo!

Fang Han reached out and shook Miss Cheng's hand, smiling and saying, "Why would that be a problem? It's already pretty good. The toxic materials needed for the Vermillion Clam Elixir and the Ice Silkworm Elixir are scarce. Even if we used them all, we wouldn't be able to make much. The key is the Essence Nourishing Pill, the Qi Invigorating Pill, the Soul Preserving Pill, the Jade Bone Pill, and the Marrow Cleansing Pill. These are the most important!"

The Essence-Nourishing Pill, Qi-Invigorating Pill, and Spirit-Preserving Pill act on a person's essence, energy, and spirit respectively, and are of great help to the cultivation of internal strength. However, the Jade Bone Pill and Marrow-Cleansing Pill are for cleansing the meridians and marrow, and have a certain improvement effect on a person's bones and meridians, which can speed up the speed of cultivation.

These pills are relatively mild, and the medicinal materials used to refine them are widely available. As long as there are enough alchemists, they can be refined into panaceas in large quantities.

This is very critical.

Not to mention, Miss Cheng also has a way to increase the production of pills.

Although the medicinal effect will be greatly reduced and the toxicity will be difficult to completely reconcile, to be frank, this type of elixir itself is a panacea. The medicinal effect is greatly reduced, but that is also a discount relative to the original medicinal effect. However, for the secular world, the medicinal effect is still extremely good!

If we put it outside, who would care about the slight toxicity in it?

Haven’t you heard that all medicines are poisonous?

Only Miss Cheng is relatively pursuing perfection in her unconventional medical skills.

Fang Han thought for a moment and asked softly, "Lingsu, using your method to make pills, does the amount of medicinal materials required remain the same?"

If the amount of medicinal materials consumed is the same, the loss rate does need to be considered, and it is not advisable to promote it too much in the early stage. However, if the loss rate is not too high, large-scale promotion is also possible.

Lay it out first and then improve it slowly later.

Cheng Lingsu pondered for a moment and said, "Using this method to refine pills, the same amount of medicinal materials can yield twice the output, but the efficacy is only about one-tenth of the original."

Fang Han nodded slightly and asked, "What about output efficiency?"

"Dozens to a hundred times or more." Cheng Lingsu pondered again and gave a general but astonishing multiple.

Huang Rong clapped her hands after hearing this and said, "Sister Cheng's method can be promoted. The benefits far outweigh the disadvantages."

Wu Xingyun also said, "With this production volume, a few flaws are insignificant."

Giving up most of the medicinal power in exchange for a 4.9% explosive increase in production will be extremely beneficial to the disciples within the sect, the Daqian system, and the millions of people in Daqian.

otherwise......

If we really want to follow the original meticulous refining method to slowly train alchemists and gradually promote it, when will it be implemented at the grassroots level and fully popularized?

It is definitely impossible to do it without ten years.

But this trick can shorten the time to accomplish this.

Fang Han also agreed with it: "Then let's push it away first!"

(ps: Asking for custom orders, full orders, flowers, evaluations, monthly tickets, comments, and support~)

Chapter 527: The pros and cons! Envoys from various countries request an audience!

It is well worth giving up the quality of the pills in exchange for output!

Although using this method to refine pills will result in a high loss rate of medicinal materials, a significant reduction in medicinal potency, and some added toxicity from the medicinal materials, these disadvantages are not worth mentioning compared to the advantages.

The large-scale promotion of cultivation elixirs can greatly accelerate the popularization of martial arts and improve the speed of cultivating talents. The faster martial arts are popularized, the faster talents grow, which in turn will drive the overall development.

Just comparing the labor force of a master of internal force and an ordinary person, there is a world of difference between them. And this is a comparison in pure strength, endurance, vitality, and physical fitness. If you add in the various magical powers that come with deep internal force, there are even more benefits, far beyond what ordinary people can compare.

This kind of transformation can have a very positive impact wherever it occurs.
