Spoils of War

If Lin Yuan had to sum up the reasons he had achieved what he had today, a transmigrator's knowledge and his habit of planning ahead were undoubtedly two of the most crucial factors.

A transmigrator's knowledge gave him intelligence; his habit of planning ahead allowed him to fully utilize that intelligence.

For that very reason, even though Lin Yuan was still very far from the realm of Dou Di, that did not stop him from planning ahead and preparing some resources in advance for his cultivation after becoming a Dou Di.

After all, even among Dou Di, there were also gaps.

In the original trajectory, after Xiao Yan broke through to Dou Di, his cultivation had not reached the upper limit of the Dou Qi Continent. Over the following decades, he still made great progress, and by the time of "Five Emperors Breaking Void," his cultivation already towered far above Gu Yuan, Zhukun, and the others.

Lin Yuan did not know how he had cultivated, but one thing was without a doubt—the Dou Qi system required enormous amounts of energy for one's cultivation to advance.

However, the current Dou Qi Continent did not have any heavenly materials and earthly treasures that could help a Dou Di progress.

So after careful consideration, Lin Yuan ultimately set his sights on all living beings... The Dou Qi Continent's hundreds of billions of people and countless magical beasts—were they not the finest resources?

Origin Dou Qi and magical beast essence blood were both pure forms of energy!

The devouring power of the Nihility Devouring Flame and the purifying power of the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame—these uniquely blessed special powers made Lin Yuan realize something: paths like the Demonic Essence Mark, which gathered the power of the masses, had even broader prospects in the future.
