Chapter 17: The Difference Between The Two Worlds

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Any random cabbage outside the house could be exchanged for some points.

Zhao Aiguo had long communicated with Lin Yi that these dishes were more effective than the pills distributed by the Supernatural Supervision Bureau.

Therefore, if he really wanted points, Lin Yi could get a bunch in a short period of time.

After that was the exchange panel. It listed the items in the Supernatural Supervision Bureau’s warehouse. There were many types. Lin Yi roughly flipped through them, most of them were items used by martial artists.

Martial arts manuals, techniques, instructors’ teachings, cultivation pills…

To a pure martial artist, this supernatural forum was simply a treasure. It provided them with everything they needed during their martial arts training.

Unfortunately, there was more to this world than martial arts.

There were also cultivation manuals on the exchange list, but there were very few of them. Moreover, they were all unorthodox, such as corpse chasing, poisonous worms, and so on. Even these things that Lin Yi thought were unorthodox still required astronomical points to exchange for.

From this, it could be seen how precious cultivation arts and cultivation resources were.

Lin Yi looked up at the sky. It was almost noon. Sure enough, not long after, Zhao Wanting brought lunch.

They finished dinner together, and Lin Yi walked Zhao Wanting out.

Instead of continuing to use his phone, he sat cross-legged and began to cultivate. Soon, today’s cultivation mission was completed.

This time, it took half an hour longer than the last time. The small breakthrough in his cultivation had also tempered Lin Yi’s meridians to a certain extent.

After cultivating, Lin Yi turned on his phone and continued reading.

As long as he completed his daily cultivation mission, he could do whatever he wanted with the rest of his time.

Of course, when he was scrolling through his phone, Lin Yi also prepared a few pots of spirit sunflower seeds beside him. As he scrolled through his phone, he ate melon seeds. It was perfect.

As he slowly scrolled through the exchange list, Lin Yi retracted his previous boast. He realized that there were many things that made his eyes light up.

Spiritual plants, spiritual soil, spiritual water… In the environment of spiritual energy recovery, the organization established by the entire country had a lot of resources.

Lin Yi looked at the instructions inside and understood that the materials in the exchange list were not only limited to the warehouse of the Jiangcheng Province’s Supernatural Supervision Bureau. All the Supernatural Supervision Bureau resources in the country were connected through this app. Moreover, after purchase, the delivery speed was very fast. The Supernatural Supervision Bureau also provided delivery services.

‘That’s nice!’

Lin Yi saw a few more spiritual plants from Spiritual Master Qing Mu’s memories. The Supernatural Supervision Bureau probably did not understand the use of these spiritual plants, so the price was not high. Lin Yi bought them very decisively.

Soon, all the points given by Zhao Aiguo were used up.

Lin Yi was not in a hurry. These things had been on the list for a long time. He was not short of a day or two. He would be exchanging some points tomorrow.

Since he was out of points, he looked at the next section.

Communication plates.

As soon as he opened it, the first was the newly developed martial arts cultivation technique: “The First Edition of the New Era Martial Dao”.

The title of the post below was also very serious:

The division of martial arts and cultivation realms.

The possibility of artificial spiritual roots.

The difference in lifespan between martial arts and cultivation.

Learning the Dragon Subduing Power with zero foundation, with a video.

…

There were many comments and likes below each post. From the number of comments and likes, one could roughly guess the current size of the Supernatural Supervision Bureau.

The first post was the most popular. There were as many as 500,000 likes. For such a forum, there shouldn’t be a problem of spamming data.

As expected, official organizations were huge.

He started from the beginning and opened them one by one. The content of these exchanges could fully show the current standard of the Chinese cultivation world.

Initially, Lin Yi wanted to watch it as a joke. After all, he had Spiritual Master Qing Mu’s fragmented memories in his mind and knew the basics of cultivation very well.

But after reading only a few posts, the relaxed expression on his face disappeared completely.

In the cultivation world, there were ways to produce spiritual roots, but all of them were extremely precious and rare. For example, the Divine Protection Crystal that Spiritual Master Qing Mu obtained.

It was impossible to do it alone, but in the post “Possibility of Artificial Spiritual Roots,” Lin Yi saw a possibility.

This person named “I Only Want to Cultivate” explained his strange idea in the post. He would parasitize a plant that could absorb spiritual energy on its own and let the cultivator control the plant so that the plant’s roots could grow along the person’s meridians.

When the roots of this plant occupied all the meridians in the body, even if there was no spiritual root, the spiritual energy absorbed by the spiritual plant would automatically spread into the meridians. At that time, this parasitic spiritual plant would be this person’s spiritual root.

It was a very bold idea, but it refreshed Lin Yi’s mind. To be honest, this method really worked.

To a mortal, as long as they could cultivate, being parasitized by a plant was nothing.

Moreover, not only was the idea provided by this post possible, but the comments below were also more and more imaginative. The brain was engraved with array formations, the external Golden Core was replaced by the internal dantian, internal energy was converted into spiritual energy, and so on…

They were all vivid descriptions that made Lin Yi take notes as he read.

At this moment, Lin Yi also discovered the huge difference between the two worlds. The cultivation civilization of the cultivation world was indeed prosperous, but the underlying ideas were extremely firm and inflexible. On the other hand, on the Blue Planet, a world that had just recovered its spiritual energy a few years ago was as clean as a baby on the cultivation path. However, its thoughts were very open and creative.

Lin Yi had accepted the inheritance of the cultivation world, but his thinking was still that of a Blue Planet, full of creativity.

He hungrily absorbed the content of the communication board while answering a few questions from the others.

This was because… he would get points for answering questions. Moreover, the poster had set a requirement that he could only check if he paid points.

For the time being, he was too lazy to go so far as to exchange points. Lin Yi chose to impart his knowledge.

Of course, he was teaching Lin Yi about spiritual plants.

“This spiritual plant is on the verge of death. I’ve tried many methods to no avail. I wonder if anyone knows the crux of the problem? Picture Attachements x10.”

When Lin Yi saw the picture, he was amused. He typed and replied, “Friend, this is a spiritual plant that is only suitable for growing in water. Why did you plant it in the soil?”

He looked at the next question.

“I spent a lot of money to find out the effect of this spiritual plant and fed it to all the experimental animals. There are no changes in the various indicators, but it’s clearly full of spiritual energy. It shouldn’t be useless, right? Picture x5.”

When Lin Yi saw the picture, his hand paused. He narrowed his eyes and thought carefully for a few minutes. Then, he replied at the bottom of the post, “The effective part of this spiritual plant is its roots. You can cut off some of its roots. Its nourishing effect is comparable to ginseng.”

Then, he clicked on the main post and sent a friend request.
