Chapter 419: Future Plans
In the experimental base of Yunzhong Valley, Su Hao set up various defensive formations, including the suppression of telepathic perception. This means that it is very vague for cultivators to probe the situation inside the base with their ‘sense’ from outside.
This is also why Su Hao dared to directly teleport back to the Yunzhong Valley. He was confident that even the divine ‘sense’ of Unity Realm cultivators would find it difficult to accurately detect him.
After returning to the Yunzhong Valley, Su Hao swept through with radar perception and discovered differences in the Immortal Sect compared to before.
Previously, there were only over three hundred cultivators staying in the Yunzhong Valley on a daily basis, most of whom were low-level cultivators. There were very few cultivators above the Nascent Soul stage. But now, the number of high-level cultivators has greatly increased. Su Hao sensed that there were twenty-six Nascent Soul stage cultivators, and there were even four Unity Realm cultivators!
“It seems that the Immortal Sect has temporarily abandoned its foothold in Lingshan Continent. Most of the cultivators dispersed in Lingshan Continent have already returned. Those who haven’t returned either didn’t make it back or are already dead.”
The Yunzhong Valley has suffered a great blow, with a significant decrease in Foundation Establishment and Golden Core stage cultivators. It’s unknown how many years it will take to recover.
Su Hao also has some feelings about this, as it’s the ebb and flow of life. What appears lofty and transcendent to mortals, the ‘immortals’, when disaster strikes, can perish just as quickly.
Although Su Hao appears powerful and seemingly possesses eternal life, will he, at some future moment of disaster, vanish like these cultivators?
“I still need to acquire enough knowledge as soon as possible and possess the ability to protect myself before disaster strikes!”
With this thought in mind, Su Hao entered the pinball space, sat at the desk, materialized pen and paper, and began to write and draw on the paper, reorganizing his future plans.
“Now that the Immortal Sect’s foothold in Lingshan Continent has been completely destroyed, it’s better to stay obediently in the Immortal Sect for a while. It’s a good opportunity to cultivate the Golden Core stage technique, and with the abundant resources stored in my storage space, I have enough for years of research and practice. I can also exchange some inconspicuous materials for contribution points and then exchange them for Golden Core stage spells and techniques. So…”
“First, quickly cultivate ‘sense’ and exchange for spells and techniques, totaling one thousand contribution points, which shouldn’t be a problem.”
“Second, break through the Golden Core stage and cultivate to the fourth level in one go.”
“Now, the pinball space records a large amount of information about Golden Core cultivators, and there are also many corpses of Golden Core cultivators stored in the base. With some research, mastering the core of the Golden Core stage shouldn’t be a big problem!”
“Third, review the newly obtained wealth of information and update my cultivation knowledge.”
“The numerous books obtained from the Gao Yan God Cave are a private collection of an Unity Realm cultivator and must be extremely valuable, possibly the highest level of knowledge in this world. Far superior to the semi-public books in the Yunzhong Valley library. Perhaps I can glimpse the secrets of this world from these books.”
“Fourth, compare the books and organize various materials to find higher-level logics for ‘alchemy,’ ‘artifact refining,’ ‘formations,’ and ‘spells,’ thus reducing dependence on ‘materials.’ If I rely too much on materials, wouldn’t it be difficult to move forward in other worlds in the next reincarnation without corresponding materials? And I don’t need to materialize all the characteristics of these materials, I just need to sort out their core functions and logical combinations.”
“Functional logic is the core. Once mastered, finding alternatives should be simple.
“Fifth, divide all aspects of cultivation into unit modules, to the extent that these modules can be combined into various spells and achieve various functions.”
“In this cultivation system, only ”sense” and ‘spells’ are the main lines of cultivating ‘immortality,’ while ‘alchemy,’ ‘artifact refining,’ ‘formations,’ ‘spells,’ etc., are just ‘accessories’ for self-protection, belonging to the realm of applying knowledge. As long as the core modules are decomposed, it should be enough.”
“Sixth, break through the Nascent Soul stage and see what secrets are hidden within Nascent Soul cultivators!”
“Seventh, finally explore what exactly constitutes the two thousand years of lifespan.”
“As for others, let’s talk about them later. But…”
Su Hao drew a large bracket after the two items ‘alchemy’ and ‘spells,’ and then labeled the words ‘Yashan’: “My time is limited after all. Not only do I need time to cultivate ‘sense’ and accumulate spiritual power, but I also need to spend a lot of time consulting books and collecting information. I can still manage to decompose the modules of artifact refining and formations, but adding anything else would leave me with insufficient time. Therefore, I’ll leave ‘alchemy’ and ‘spells’ to Yashan.”
Judging by Yashan’s performance during this time, he has already become a very qualified researcher. However, the only drawback is that Yashan hasn’t yet developed the ability to independently design a complete research plan. He can only have Su Hao design the plan for him, and then Yashan personally carries out the practical work.
But this is just the beginning. With time, Yashan will inevitably be able to stand on his own.
By then, Su Hao will only need to say, “Yashan, research the technique of spell implantation,” and Yashan will be able to independently design and complete everything, and then provide Su Hao with a satisfactory answer.
It’s worth noting that Su Hao himself knew nothing in the beginning. Although he can now come up with research projects effortlessly, it’s also a step-by-step process, experiencing many failures and errors before gradually developing a relatively rigorous thinking ability.
Overall, Su Hao is very satisfied with Yashan. Whether wearing an apron, proficient in household chores, or wearing a lab coat, he can handle scientific research. One word: dependable!
However, Yashan’s survival skills still need improvement, as he would have difficulty escaping from high-level cultivators!
“Previously, Yashan couldn’t master the ability of free teleportation without systematic assistance. Now that he has an universal assistant implanted, perhaps I can give him the talent of a summoner and try to learn teleportation techniques. I’m not asking for him to become exceptionally skilled, just enough to escape danger when necessary.”
With more and more things to learn and explore, Su Hao increasingly feels that time is not enough. If Yashan suddenly dies one day, he might have to help him find another body to resurrect…
“Well, let’s focus on practicing the technique for now! Cultivate ‘sense’ as soon as possible!”
…
The next day, Feng Cheng followed Yashan to Su Hao’s experimental base and was immediately stunned by the scene before him.
“This…” Feng Cheng’s mouth gradually opened wide!
Although he didn’t have much knowledge of cultivation, he still had a good family background and could discern which things looked valuable!
Most of the items collected by an Unity Realm stage cultivator are exquisite or very special. Although they are all piled up messily, Feng Cheng immediately confirmed that this was a huge treasure trove. Any item picked up at random seemed to be of considerable value.
“So, this is Senior Brother Feng Wei’s collection? So Senior Brother Feng Wei is so wealthy!”
Although Feng Cheng had been to Su Hao’s experimental base before, he only did some simple chores and had never been into Su Hao’s storage space. Now, entering for the first time, he was greatly shocked.
Yashan smiled and said, “What do you think, Junior Brother Feng Cheng? Senior Brother Feng Wei’s treasure trove is impressive, isn’t it?”
Feng Cheng scratched his head, very puzzled as to why the small figure in front of him, who was not even as tall as his shoulder, insisted on calling him junior brother. He was already eighteen years old, not only older than Yashan by four or five years but also three years ahead in cultivation. Logically, he should be the senior brother…
However, Feng Cheng admitted that he couldn’t beat Yashan. Although Yashan was short, he was incredibly strong. After being beaten up several times, Feng Cheng could only obediently call him ‘Senior Brother Yashan.’
The key point was that Yashan seemed to have an extraordinary relationship with Senior Brother Feng Wei, actually being able to freely enter Senior Brother Feng Wei’s secret treasure trove. Thinking of this, Feng Cheng felt even more respectful towards Yashan and smiled, “Senior Brother Yashan, this is the most luxurious treasure trove I’ve ever seen in my life.”
Yashan smiled and said, “Come, let’s tidy up this place together and try to finish it in ten days! Let’s start by organizing the books!”
Feng Cheng was full of enthusiasm and immediately rolled up his sleeves, answering loudly, “Yes, Senior Brother Yashan! Watch me!”
