Civilization's Guide

Luo Chuan withdrew his gaze.

The pleasant voices of the sea demons drifted faintly into his ears.

He had just thought of a question. "System, what are you collecting so many Spirit Crystals for?"

Spirit Crystals did indeed contain pure spiritual energy.

But at its root, spiritual energy was merely a form of energy.

But if it truly happened, it should have a significant impact on the Tianlan Continent.

"It follows the principle of equivalent exchange," the system explained. "Only in this way can the order and development of civilization remain unaffected."

Luo Chuan thought about it and felt that the system made a great deal of sense.
