Qi Saintess Has Learned to Use Tactics

The first live stream has come to an end.

Filled with amazement and admiration, Dan Chengzi returned to the Alchemy Room to continue pondering his "Exploding Pill" technique.

Lin Fan, on the other hand, was in a rather awkward position.

I silently pray that the Sliding Shovel won't become a joke that everyone in the Cultivation World will ridicule.

But at the same time, he thought of something else.

"Hey?!"

"Holy crap, nobody's giving a tip? That's outrageous... How am I supposed to get a cut if you guys don't tip?"

"Didn't the announcement say that this tipping feature was available?"

"Especially Purple Bamboo True Person, who is his chief disciple, shouldn't he give a reward to show his support?"

Lin Fan couldn't help but mutter a complaint under his breath.

It's not much money if only one person gives a tip?

That makes sense, but the important thing isn't the amount of money he tipped, but that the first person to tip can attract others, okay?

"Well!"

After thinking it over, Lin Fan sighed softly, "It seems that the people in the Cultivation World are too simple and honest, or rather, their consumption concepts are too backward."

"Was there anything wrong with that live stream just now? Absolutely nothing!"

"There's beautiful scenery, fierce battles, and even some single and double eyelid surgery, plus a hilarious Sliding Shovel at the end, yet no one's tipping!"

"No, next time, next time I have to ignite their spending enthusiasm..."

"Achoo!!!"

Purple Bamboo True Person covered his mouth and nose with one hand and played cards with the other.

Somewhat speechless, he asked, "Who's insulting me?"

C City.

Qi Zixiao finished reading Lin Fan's message.

"The greenhouse is built, but it's a pity we're short a lot of Pseudo Spiritual Stone."

She pondered for a moment, "This is indeed a big problem. Spiritual energy... Without spiritual energy, one cannot cultivate immortality."

"A spiritual herb cannot grow into a spiritual herb without spiritual energy."

Essence of the sun and moon?

That is indeed a kind of spiritual energy, but the problem is, it's too far away.

When they arrived on Earth, all that remained was light and a little warmth. What spiritual energy could there possibly be there? Otherwise, Earth wouldn't have been devoid of spirits, cultivators, and spiritual herbs all these years.

If you rely on accumulating over time, a large-scale Spirit Gathering Array requires 999 Pseudo Spiritual Stone!

Even at a rate of 50-60 yuan every six days, it would still take about four months to collect them all. It's not that we don't have that much time, but... it's too slow.

"Looks like we need to pull off something big soon!"

She stroked her chin, lost in thought.

"We need Qin Ya's help to spread the word. This time, it's not just about the original suppliers, but about spreading the news throughout the country and even other countries."

"They even said this was the last time they would collect raw stones in a while."

"In this way, we should be able to receive quite a lot at once."

"Besides that, hopefully Old Chen will have some success. If he can really create spiritual energy, the problem should be solved, right?"

However, this possibility is actually quite low.

Qi Zixiao herself couldn't explain exactly what spiritual energy was made of, but what she was certain of was that spiritual energy could be described as 'naturally generated and nurtured by nature'.

I've never seen anyone create spiritual energy!

Even the most powerful beings can only absorb... some of it, and then the spiritual energy will be less.

Otherwise, there wouldn't be the concept of 'world limits'.

The so-called world limit is that the spiritual energy of a certain world is only enough for one person to break through to a certain realm, or enough for a group of people to break through to a certain realm.

If so many people break through to that level, the world will reach its limit. Although there will still be spiritual energy, it will be impossible for anyone to reach that realm again!

Unless one goes to another world, or perhaps a top figure from the original world passes away, and the spiritual energy that originally belonged to this world within his body returns to the world, it would be possible for someone to break through to that realm again.

This shows that even those powerful cultivators who have reached the limits of the world cannot actually create spiritual energy.

"Wrong..."

"Perhaps they are capable of manufacturing it, but they are unwilling to do so."

"After all, if we create more spiritual energy, wouldn't that be creating an opponent for ourselves?"

"And it shouldn't just be spiritual energy; there are many restrictions imposed by the rules of heaven and earth as well..."

Qi Zixiao's current Large Account is Void Refinement stage. While his cultivation level is not low, it is certainly not low. Among the younger generation, he is an absolute standout.

But to say it's high, it's really not that high.

Therefore, Qi Zixiao knew very little about things like the rules of heaven and earth, and she couldn't give an accurate answer.

But regardless, she still believes that artificially creating spiritual energy is almost impossible.

Why?

Because even if those top experts are truly unwilling to create spiritual energy, those one level below them will inevitably try every means to break through!

But they still couldn't succeed, which actually says a lot.

"So, for now, we still have no choice but to focus on Pseudo Spiritual Stone..."

"Besides that, there are miraculous medicines."

"I need to tell that guy not to use these spiritual herbs for now. After all, if I'm not mistaken, the spiritual herbs will continuously improve the soil environment and release more spiritual energy during their growth."

"If that's the case, transplanting some already cultivated spiritual herbs into those roc-like creatures on top of the Spirit Gathering Array would have an even better effect."

"As for guarding the house..."

"Has this guy forgotten?"

Qi Zixiao couldn't help but curl the corners of her lips slightly. "As expected, this Saintess is still smarter."

"Why must we hire people? Hiring people not only means paying them wages, but also raising concerns about their loyalty. Even if they are loyal enough, how can ordinary people have the ability to handle various problems?"

"Instead of hiring someone, it would be better to use some Pseudo Spiritual Stone to set up a simple Bewilderment Array around the perimeter."

"Although it can't trap cultivators, ordinary people who enter will definitely not be able to enter the shantytown; they will only be bewitched and walk out from other places..."

"Indeed, although there are many things on Earth that are useful to cultivators, the things from the Cultivation World are even more useful on Earth!"

Neither Lin Fan nor Qi Zixiao noticed.

Because of their different experiences, when solving problems, they tend to use the methods they are already accustomed to.

For example, Lin Fan...

As modern people, we're already incredibly used to mobile phones. But when we come to the Cultivation World, we start thinking about how to create an internet.

Take Qi Zixiao for example, at this moment.

Lin Fan had been racking his brains for a long time without finding a good solution to the 'guarding' problem, but Qi Zixiao easily came up with the best solution.

Isn't it just a matter of using a formation to solve it?

If all else fails, then two will do!

Qi Zixiao first went to the shantytown and found that the workers were planting medicinal herbs, but they were mostly seeds.

Without spiritual energy, even just budding takes a considerable amount of time.

But Qi Zixiao wasn't in a hurry about it.

Without spiritual energy, there's really not much difference between planting and not planting.

It's just that planting them in advance can save some time.

She then spoke with Qin Ya Qin Ya, asking her to spread the word as widely as possible that this was her 'last' time buying raw stones...

"The last time?"

Qin Ya was somewhat surprised. "Why? You... think there's too much money?"

"No."

Qi Zixiao didn't hide anything. "I want to take this opportunity to collect more, and I will definitely continue to collect in the future, cough cough."

Looking at the mind map on the phone, Qin Ya was taken aback for a moment, then laughed, "I see, this is your 'about to go bankrupt, clearance sale' tactic."

"More or less?"

Qi Zixiao thought about it and realized it was true.

She'd seen this tactic before; after all, it's especially common in towns with high visitor traffic.

Simply put, it means that a business puts up signs saying it's closing down, having a clearance sale, or only having XX days left, with the aim of attracting customers.

At first, Qi Zixiao felt some sympathy when she saw this.

Now?

Come on!

Huge clearance sale at a loss! Last XX days! I don't even know how many XX days have passed, but the shop is still open!

My current approach is pretty much the same...

They're all a bit shameless, though.

"But I only said it would be the last time I collect raw stones recently, not the last time. How long is 'recently'? Isn't that something we define ourselves?"

"At worst, we can book for a month or half a month or something, is that alright?"

Qi Zixiao felt that she was indeed clever~

This tactic of luring the snake out of its hole is bound to work, at least in her opinion.

That day, Qi Zixiao spent the rest of the day practicing driving.

In the evening, Zhou Na invited me to play mahjong for several hours...

The next day, Qi Zixiao naturally wouldn't forget about collecting the raw stones.

Then... Old Chen's phone rang.

"Should I come to you, or should you come to me?"

Qi Zixiao thought for a moment and said, "Please make the trip."

"Good!"

Why did you call Old Chen over?

It's not that Qi Zixiao is lazy.

Rather, it was because she had recently watched a few spy movies and felt that... there might be listening devices or something in the home of a scientific research tycoon like Old Chen.

If that's the case, our home will be much safer.

Around noon, Old Chen came over with some documents, but unfortunately, he didn't look too happy.

"They haven't figured it out yet?"

Qi Zixiao wasn't too disappointed, since she had already made some preparations.

"It's not that we haven't figured it out, but..."

Old Chen smiled bitterly, "Based on our current understanding... we cannot create spiritual energy."

"I have analyzed it carefully, and the components of 'spiritual energy' are all completely new entities that we have never discovered or recorded before."

"I don't even know where to extract these ingredients, and I haven't given them any names."

If the source of these ingredients is known, Old Chen will certainly not have any problems and can create 'artificial spiritual energy' according to the analyzed proportions.

But we know nothing about this now, so how can we create it artificially? Should we first study how to create these individual components?

It's harder than ascending to heaven!

"So that's how it is."

Qi Zixiao nodded slightly, and then, a sudden idea struck her!
