Huaxia Federation, Harbor City
Lin Jiang finally brought Cao Ying back to Harbor City. Later, under Lin Jiang's organization, the scientific research forces in various fields formed a spiritual energy research institute.
This spiritual energy research institute is dedicated to the study of spiritual energy, including the application of spiritual energy, which will be completely integrated with the cultivation of immortals.
For this purpose, Lin Jiang not only invested a lot of money, but also contributed more than ten of his few immortal cultivators. They were all just entering the cultivation of immortals not long ago, and their cultivation was below the third level of Qi training. Lin Jiang
attached great importance to this spiritual energy research institute, so he arranged it in Harbor City. Under his personal supervision, Lin Jiang hoped that these studies would make breakthroughs.
"Uncle, this time the spiritual energy recovery is a bit unusual. Look at these breakthroughs. This is the photo of the spiritual medicine taken by your people. This spiritual medicine is called Sanjie Biyunhua. We couldn't find it at that time. I have seen its records in ancient books. It was very rare in the Qing Emperor era."
Cao Ying also slowly took over the work arranged by Lin Jiang and was responsible for some matters. After all, cultivation is very simple for them now, and it doesn't take much time to make a breakthrough casually.
As the former leader of a sect, Cao Ying had a wide range of sources of information and had read many rare ancient books. He had extraordinary knowledge and soon discovered some unusual things.
"I know about this. I also saw a lot of spiritual medicines that I didn't recognize. They should be things that were extinct in our era."
"Uncle, I suspect that the awakening of the Heavenly Dao and the revival of spiritual energy are equivalent to reopening the world of immortal cultivation, which is similar to the legendary beginning of chaos."
"I have this suspicion as well. If so, then the opportunity to become an immortal should be in this life."
"Does the Heavenly Dao really favor the demon race?"
"In theory, this is the case, Xiaoying, don't be careless. If the Demon Emperor Fengjiu comes back, you are not a match either. Moreover, there are many demon kings in the demon race, and our human race is still weak."
Lin Jiang said. This is what he is most worried about. The demon race has not appeared yet. Those who have become demons are at most demon beasts, not the demon race.
"Uncle, why don't we wake up the others as well?"
"That's unnecessary. The spiritual energy is still very weak. We have to wait until they can break through the previous realm. They can't afford to waste time."
Lin Jiang shook his head. This was the most important reason why he didn't wake up the others. They couldn't afford to waste time. They had to wait until the spiritual energy was strong enough to break through as soon as they came out.
"Okay, there are still many people sleeping in my Zhongxing Sect. Uncle, have the demons looked for them?"
"We looked for them, but there was no movement. I don't know where they are hiding,"
Lin Jiang said. He must have sent people to look for them, but they couldn't find them.
"Computing power, let's not talk about the demon race. We need to make ourselves strong. I will take back all these spiritual medicines mentioned above, and the spiritual medicine garden will be re-established."
"You want to go in person?"
"Spiritual medicines are not the same as ordinary medicinal materials. It's not that the spiritual plant husband can't do it well. When I was young, I helped my master for several years, and my spiritual plant husband's level is okay."
"Okay, I'll let Wu Jiang arrange it. He will try his best to keep you safe. Don't underestimate the mortals nowadays. It's not the time to dominate in the foundation-building period. In addition, I will train relevant talents as soon as possible."
Lin Jiang nodded. There are very few high-level cultivators who are full-time spiritual plant husbands, but most of the high-level cultivators have some skills of spiritual plant husbands. He has no one available now. If Cao Ying is willing to go in person, then let him go in person.
······
"Sir, there is news from Zhou Liao that someone wants to see you"
"Who"
"A man named Zhou Bang, his identity is very confidential, I have no right to check"
"It's him, I know, what does he want to do?"
Lin Jiang said, he knew Zhou Bang, Lin Jiang's infiltration into Zhou Liao in the past few decades was very deep, his people were everywhere, and Lin Jiang did not stop most of Zhou Bang's things.
Because Zhou Bang has not shown hostile behavior to him so far, and he is indeed very talented, and the level of the biopharmaceutical group under his command is very high.
"I don't know the details, I just want to see you, and I also proposed to meet at a third party, the location can be decided by you"
"The location is chosen at the border between China and Zhou Liao, which city you go to arrange, let Wu Jiang arrange it in advance, and before the meeting, focus on investigating Zhou Bang and the people around him, I want to see the most detailed information"
Lin Jiang said, although he didn't know what this guy was going to do, but his subconscious told Lin Jiang that this kid might have a rebellious nature, and he needed to make arrangements in advance. If he really dared to show his teeth, he would kill him.
The secretariat was extremely efficient and determined the meeting place in just one day, but the meeting time was scheduled for half a month later. Wu Jiang also began to investigate Zhou Bang and others.
Cao Ying was also very efficient. In ten days or so, he traveled to more than thirty places around the world and dug up dozens of extremely valuable spiritual medicines, half of which were spiritual medicines that had never been seen in the era of cultivating immortals. They were all planted at Yunshan Villa, where the spiritual medicine garden had been built.
If there was nothing major, Lin Jiang and Cao Ying would sort out the information together. Back then, they had made arrangements in advance, copied the knowledge of the cultivation system on the jade slips onto paper, and then sealed the information. Now, after tens of thousands of years, some of these papers still had problems. As for the jade slips that were turned out from the storage bag, many of them could not withstand the damage of time and were useless.
The most important thing was that there was no protection from spiritual energy, otherwise it would be easy to preserve things from the era of cultivating immortals for tens of thousands of years.
Now the workload of the two was very heavy. They had to sort out all the things related to the secret techniques of cultivation, elixir, talisman, and formation. They didn't know how long it would take, so they could only clean up the matters before the foundation-building period.
The turmoil in the outside world is still continuing. There are more and more demonized animals and more and more monsters entering the ranks. All countries are busy clearing them out. It is impossible not to clear them out. Unarmed mortals are no match for them. Even ordinary hot weapons are useless. They must use the power of the country to deal with them.
And within the human race, there are more and more news about the return of the immortal world to the world. No matter how to block it, it is useless. The official has given up a little. The top leaders are actively welcoming this change, because the arrival of the immortal era is also intentional for them.
For example, the emergence of spiritual medicine has allowed the alchemists who once gradually declined to flourish again. Although those alchemists are not serious immortal cultivators, they can still research stronger elixirs than before by relying on their ancestral craftsmanship, not to mention Zhou Bang, a serious immortal cultivator. In the past two years, he has been almost unimpeded in the upper echelons of Zhou Liao with elixirs.
Time soon came to meet Zhou Bang. Unexpectedly, Cao Ying also wanted to go. Lin Jiang had no choice but to take Cao Ying with him.
The meeting place was on a mountain at the border between the two countries. When Lin Jiang and others arrived, Zhou Bang and Li Cheng had already arrived. Zhou Bang was shocked when he saw Cao Ying.
Before the Great Dao disappeared, Cao Ying was famous for a while. He was the only great man in the world of immortal cultivation. There were very few people who didn't know Cao Ying.
"So, Alliance Leader Cao has also woken up,"
Zhou Bang calmed down and said to Cao Ying.
"Now there is no immortal alliance, and there is no alliance leader."
"Etiquette cannot be abolished. Alliance Leader Cao was once a hero in the world of immortal cultivation. All immortal cultivators should be grateful to Alliance Leader Cao."
"Stop talking nonsense. Why did you ask us to come?"
Cao Ying didn't like Zhou Bang's hypocritical style, which seemed very fake.
"Senior Lin, you should have been awake for a long time, right?"
"Zhou Bang, Zhou Bang, you don't even recognize the sect master?"
"Senior Lin, you don't have our Wangxian Sect in your heart, and we, the disciples of Wangxian Sect, naturally don't have you in our hearts. Is there anything else to say?"
Zhou Bang said. Everything is mutual. If the sect master can't protect the sect and bring benefits to the disciples, why should the disciples recognize you as the sect master?
"The human heart is unpredictable, and I remember that your Zhou family ancestor was recruited by me personally."
"The ancestor is the ancestor, and I am me. I haven't received any favor from you, so naturally there is no need to recognize you."
"Okay, as shameless as your ancestor."
"You..."
Zhou Bang was furious. He was very angry because he insulted his ancestor in front of him, but was stopped by Li Cheng.
"Enough of the nonsense, Senior Lin, we don't need to dwell on the things of the last era. I asked you to come here today to discuss that we should divide the world together."
"Divide the world?"
"Yes, we mean to divide the world. The spiritual energy is revived, and the era of immortal cultivation is coming again. We have room to show our strength again, but too many immortal cultivators are not a good thing. There are only so many resources. If there are too many immortal cultivators, we will have less.
I know that you control the Chinese Federation and have deep infiltration into Qingyun and Zhouliao. We can withdraw from Shenzhou, but we want Yingzhou, Penglai, and together control Fangzhang and other archipelagos to divide the ocean and the South and North Poles. Together we will limit the number of immortal cultivators and control all resources in our own hands. What do you think?"
"Nothing."
"What do you mean?"
"Do you want me to explain it more clearly?"
"What do you want to say?"
"Okay, I'll be straightforward. You are not of such rank that you are worthy of sharing the world with me,"
Lin Jiang said coldly. The two men's faces suddenly changed. Zhou Bang couldn't bear it anymore. Lin Jiang used his status to pressure him as soon as he opened his mouth. He was already unhappy and was about to take action the next moment, but he was fast. There were people who were faster than him. Before he could make a move, a cold light appeared.
