"The speed at which this technology can acquire resources is quite remarkable..."
Not far from Earth, those powerful beings from the Immortal Realm and the Celestial Realm knelt obediently in the void, seemingly repenting for the fallen people of Earth, but they also saw what was happening around them.
After all, their strength is undeniable; their eyesight alone is extraordinary.
Seeing Lin Yun's men rapidly gathering resources in the starry sky, they couldn't help but sigh in admiration.
In the Immortal Realm and the Celestial Realm, the various forces still use primitive methods to collect resources, relying on individual manpower. Although each person is quite strong and the speed of resource collection is not slow, it is far inferior to the speed of resource collection using this kind of technological power.
"If we have this kind of technological power to collect resources, our sect can save a lot of manpower from resource gathering, allowing them more time to cultivate and strengthen the sect's power. This alone makes it worthwhile to acquire these technological items..."
Some powerful figures from the Immortal Realm and the Heavenly Realm secretly discussed this.
Normally, they would have already gone and looted these items.
However, now that the Virgin Mary is watching and making them kneel and repent, they don't dare to do such a thing again.
He was just thinking about the future.
If those powerful beings from the celestial realm and heaven knew of the Holy Mother's existence, how would they deal with her?
Will the Virgin Mary remain on Earth, or enter the celestial realm, the heavens, or even the outer heavens?
In that case, there probably wouldn't be any important figures protecting this Earth. After all, the Earth's environment is what it is, and staying here all the time is extremely unfavorable for cultivation.
Then, perhaps they can do something else.
For example, do they acquire the technological power of these Earth humans?
In the blink of an eye, more than twenty days have passed.
Lin Yun's forces, which gather resources, have expanded to a thousand.
After completing one thousand routes, Lin Yun did not add any more.
Because the Virgin Mary said she had a month, but that was just an estimate. If she arrived earlier, she wouldn't have time to gather resources.
In that case, if he buys new troops to gather resources, it will likely be a complete waste.
Furthermore, it would take him time to collect these resources.
He couldn't possibly provide each group with a large amount of space and items; that would be too costly.
A thousand men is almost the limit.
More than twenty days have passed, and the resources he possesses are worth approximately eight billion spiritual crystals. Adding the value of the thousand men he brought, his gains over these twenty days have been substantial.
"My current gains are almost enough to buy another robot with a level 10 early-stage cultivator. If the Immortal Realm and the Heavenly Realm weren't so powerful, I wouldn't even need to leave..."
Lin Yun sighed.
Every fifty years or so, the forces of the Immortal Realm and the Heavenly Realm descend once. This time, only a little over forty years have passed. If he were given a few more years, that would be fine too...
A thousand people, in just over twenty days, have acquired so many resources.
If given a few more years to freely collect resources, it would be possible to collect hundreds or thousands of times more resources.
"Then I can buy a robot with the strength of an eleventh-level high-level cultivator?"
Lin Yun said in a low voice.
"Level 11 high-level... Even if I buy a robot with the strength of a level 12 cultivator, so what? The strength of the Immortal Realm and the Heavenly Realm is too great. There are dozens of super strong individuals who are stronger than level 12 cultivators, and there are probably countless level 12 cultivators... So what if I can only buy a robot with the strength of a level 11 high-level cultivator?"
Then, Lin Yun shook his head and smiled bitterly.
The power of the Immortal Realm and the Heavenly Realm was so overwhelming that it left people feeling powerless.
"Even if I bought a robot with the strength of a level twelve cultivator, it would be useless. Besides, the number of robots with the strength of a level twelve cultivator sold on the cosmic trading system is probably at its limit. If I want to compare with the strength of the Immortal Realm or the Celestial Realm, perhaps..."
"Perhaps, the only path is self-cultivation..."
A glint of light flashed in Lin Yun's eyes, and at that moment, a sudden realization dawned on him.
Yes, it's about self-cultivation!
With so many spiritual crystals, there should be enough for him to cultivate!
Why would he keep thinking about buying more powerful robots?
It's also because I've been facing powerful enemies all this time, and I've gotten used to relying on external things!
"Could this be the reason why those saints and powerful beings prevent humans on Earth, and those in the immortal realm and celestial realm, from learning the way of science and technology? Once you get used to relying on external things, your thinking will become inertial, thus affecting your cultivation..."
Lin Yun seemed to be deep in thought.
The development of the Earth is truly incredible.
Thousands of years ago, the first sage, Laozi, was born, and subsequently, one sage after another appeared.
Besides sages, there are many other great beings.
In the universe, there are countless civilizations. The development of any civilization is the result of countless years of accumulation. The stronger the civilization, the longer it takes to develop. Advanced civilizations that have only developed for hundreds of thousands or millions of years are rare.
Some ancient and powerful civilizations have developed for tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of years.
In just a few thousand years... it has stood at the pinnacle of the universe, with all the great powers paying homage and regarding Earth as a sacred place. How incredible is that?
No, not even a few thousand years.
This happened thousands of years ago, and the development process at that time may have only taken a little over a thousand years, or even just a few hundred years.
It is said that within the Immortal Realm and the Celestial Realm, there is an Outer Heaven, where one day is equivalent to one year in the mortal world. The true powerhouses of the Immortal Realm and the Celestial Realm mostly cultivate in the Outer Heaven. Thousands of years have passed, but they only experience a dozen or so years.
In just over a decade, he cultivated to the level of a great master?
It's unbelievable no matter how you look at it.
"If such a cultivation speed truly exists, it's no wonder that those saints and powerful beings look down on technological power..."
Lin Yun murmured.
Thinking about these things, Lin Yun felt a surge of emotion.
We are all human beings on Earth. In such a short time, those people can cultivate to that level. Why can't he? Why can't they?
The power of the Immortal Realm and the Heavenly Realm made him feel powerless, but also gave him a sense of confidence.
"Although I don't have the environment of the Immortal Realm or the Celestial Realm, I have the Cosmic Trading System, coupled with the talents of Earthlings, one day I will be able to make a name for myself..."
Lin Yun looked up, towards the direction of Earth, and said, word by word.
resource!
If he wants to develop the cosmic trading system, he needs to have enough resources!
There are countless powerful beings in the Immortal Realm and the Heavenly Realm. If he wants to make a name for himself, he probably can't do it by himself alone. He also needs the people around him to become powerful, which requires a huge amount of resources!
Lin Yun's gaze immediately fell upon the people gathering resources!
Only a few days left...
One day... two days... three days...
Time passed slowly.
The one-month deadline was fast approaching.
"Well, Brother Lin Yun, these things of yours are truly ingenious. I wonder if I could have some of them? I'm willing to pay a price..."
A man's voice suddenly rang in Lin Yun's ears.
"Um?"
Lin Yun looked up and saw a powerful immortal kneeling in the void near Earth looking up at him.
Seeing Lin Yun looking over, the other party smiled slightly and nodded gently.
Clearly, the person who just spoke was this person.
"This powerful immortal actually wants these resource-gathering devices? Perfect, I'm about to leave this place. By then, I won't need most of them anymore. If I sell them on the cosmic trading system, they'll be secondhand. It's not a bad idea..."
Lin Yun's heart stirred, and he thought to himself.
In fact, when the owner of the Cosmic Trading System embarks on interstellar travel, the second boom period will likely arrive, which does not simply mean that the owner of the Cosmic Trading System will encounter various resource planets in space.
One person's strength is limited.
No matter how powerful a master of a cosmic trading system is, the number of resource planets he can encounter is limited.
If a user of a cosmic trading system encounters an alien civilization that does not have a cosmic trading system, then trading with this alien civilization is equivalent to having an intelligent life form from that civilization help him collect resources.
What they gave up were only a small number of technological items and various resources that this civilization did not have.
This is the true path for the master of the cosmic trading system to use the word "trading" within it.
Some time ago, Xinglan encountered that cultivation civilization.
As a result, being schemed against by a powerful cultivator from that civilization is rare and not a normal path of development.
Xinglan originally planned to first collect some unmanned resources to strengthen herself, and then contact the powerful beings of that civilization to exchange various resources with them.
Unfortunately, that's what happened...
Xinglan's weakness is only one reason; the second reason is that the powerful figure from that cultivation civilization is too cunning and greedy.
If Lin Yun were to trade with these powerful beings from the Immortal Realm and the Heavenly Realm at this moment, wouldn't it be the same as the master of the Cosmic Trading System encountering a new civilization and trading with the people of that civilization?
However, this new civilization is a powerful immortal realm, a celestial realm.
In fact, if you think about it carefully, how similar are his relationships with the Immortal Realm and the Celestial Realm, and with Xinglan and that cultivation civilization?
At first, the powerful figures from that cultivation civilization did not take Xinglan's strength seriously. In fact, they even planned to use a scheme to wipe out any potential accomplices of Xinglan.
The celestial beings and heavenly beings, from the very beginning of the mortal realm, never took Qingyun Company seriously.
Ultimately, this led to this outcome.
Now, Qingyun Company has annihilated hundreds of powerful figures from the Immortal Realm and the Heavenly Realm, while these powerful figures have annihilated hundreds of millions of ordinary people. The spirit of the Holy Mother has also reappeared, making this matter even more complicated.
It is estimated that, apart from the most powerful beings in the immortal realm and the heavenly realm, no one can be certain of the outcome.
This is probably the only opportunity Lin Yun will have to make a deal with these powerful figures from the Immortal Realm and the Heavenly Realm.
What price are you willing to offer?
Thinking this through, Lin Yun pondered and asked.
Although Qingyun Company annihilated hundreds of powerful figures from the Immortal Realm and the Heavenly Realm, and the powerful figures from the Immortal Realm and the Heavenly Realm also annihilated hundreds of millions of ordinary people, the two sides were deeply antagonistic. However, this was not something that could not be cooperated on by those in power.
Ultimately, neither side suffered any damage to their core interests.
“These past few days, I’ve seen you gather a lot of resources, so you must need a lot of resources. I also have some resources here. I wonder if I can exchange them for your technological equipment…” Seeing that Lin Yun had agreed, the powerful immortal breathed a sigh of relief and transmitted his voice.
Having witnessed what happened before, he was genuinely afraid that Lin Yun would disagree.
As he spoke, he had already transmitted information about some resources.
"These resources..."
Upon seeing the resource information sent by the other party, Lin Yun was immediately shocked.
The resources sent by the other party were all rare and precious. Even the worst ones were first-class resources like the rare and original ones. Many of these resources, in the same quantity, were worth hundreds or even thousands of times more than gold on the cosmic trading system.
Sure enough, the resources in the Immortal Realm and the Heavenly Realm are much richer and of a higher quality.
Lin Yun remained silent.
