Under the effects of his Evolution Talent, twenty days passed in the real world, and he could earn 240 million in revenue, with a gross profit of 160 million.
For a Divine Lifeform like him, even the words "enormous profit" could not begin to describe such returns.
"I'm going to be rich." Yang Fan was utterly exhilarated.
This was the benefit of status. Because he was a second-tier genius of the Luo Family, he had the opportunity to join the genius chat group.
Ordinary Divine Lifeforms could never come into contact with such confidential information. Only descendants of major families backed by Gods had the chance to learn of it. Yang Fan had also seized this opportunity to ride the wind upward.
Yang Fan forcibly suppressed his excitement and tried to behave as he normally did.
After planting the Blood-Coagulation Flowers in his Divine Kingdom, Yang Fan issued a divine decree and arranged for his believers to reclaim the remaining fields.
Three days had passed in reality, while thirty years had passed in the Divine Kingdom. The believers had reclaimed vast stretches of farmland and planted Blood-Coagulation Flowers, already beginning to affect the ecology of the entire Divine Kingdom.
Those plains had fertile soil and abundant water resources, making them the best habitats for herbivorous creatures such as antelopes, horses, and cattle.
But because of this investment, the creatures had been forced to migrate. Once ecologically balanced regions were flooded by large numbers of other creatures, drastically reducing living space and even causing widespread deaths.
Yang Fan did not care in the slightest. Compared to the enormous profits, the losses caused by this ecological damage were insignificant.
He could simply continue investing external resources to maintain the ecological balance.
As long as his believers did not suffer widespread deaths, these biological assets were not worth his attention.
Yang Fan only hated that his cultivated land was too limited. If conditions allowed, he even wanted to fill in those rivers.
Greed is like a snake trying to swallow an elephant. A person should only take what their abilities can handle. I need to learn to be content. Yang Fan took a deep breath and silently recited this to himself.
Over the next few days, Yang Fan became even more low-key. He listened attentively in class and selectively participated in class activities, doing his best to blend in.
Twenty days passed in the blink of an eye. Yang Fan entered his Divine Kingdom, withdrew the four million Blood-Coagulation Flowers along with the Moonlight Dew and Solar Essence they had produced, and listed them for sale online.
Blood-Coagulation Flowers truly were in high demand. The moment Yang Fan listed them, they were snapped up.
Sale successful. All Blood-Coagulation Flowers sold. Income: 120 million. Sale successful. Twenty drops of Moonlight Dew sold. Income: 20,000. Sale successful. Fifty drops of Solar Essence sold. Income: 50,000. Sale successful...
Notifications from Taotao Network kept arriving. In less than fifteen minutes, every item he had listed was completely sold out.
Income: 100 million Faith Points. After deducting 10% personal income tax and a 2% platform transaction fee, current income: 100 million. Faith Points have been deposited into the Divine Kingdom.
This transaction volume was considerable for Yang Fan, but on the entire trading platform, it probably would not even make a ripple.
Moreover, all marketplace transactions were now matched by Artificial Lifeforms without human interference. Coupled with the Federal Government's personal information protection laws, Yang Fan was not worried that anyone would discover he had earned so much.
Those capable of finding out about Yang Fan's account transactions would have no interest in paying attention to him, while ordinary people had no access to such information.
This was one of the greatest benefits of the current era. Although taxes were unavoidable, for the vast majority of people, every transaction was absolutely fair.
There was no need to seek departmental approval to open a shop or company. Anything could be sold, with no official restrictions whatsoever.
With the rise of Artificial Lifeforms, such a free ecosystem had naturally emerged, and commerce had flourished even more.
With a large sum of Faith Points deposited into his account, Yang Fan did not hesitate at all. He bought another eight million Blood-Coagulation Flower seeds and filled every reclaimed field with them.
Divine Lord: Yang Fan Divine Kingdom Area: One million square kilometers Talent: F-Rank Resource Talent (all resources within the Divine Kingdom grow 10% faster) SSS-Rank Evolution Talent (unique talent; can accelerate Divine Kingdom Evolution; hidden) Believers: First-Order Lifeforms (34), Mortals (250,000) Techniques: Federation Body-Tempering Art, Muscle-Tendon Cleansing Art, Myriad Spirits Return-to-Origin Array (Minor Mastery) Faith Points: 10,000 (provides 7.5 Faith Points daily) Buildings: Moonwell ×400, Sun Spring ×400, B-Rank building Hundred Spirits Blood Pool ×1 Assets: Blood-Coagulation Flower seedlings (×8 million, D-Rank spiritual plants)... Soul-Nourishing Wood (thousand-year) (× C-Rank spiritual plant)
Since planting the Blood-Coagulation Flowers, the believers only needed to patrol regularly to prevent other creatures from damaging them. The rest of their time was spent reproducing and cultivating.
Because of this, the population of the Divine Kingdom and the number of First-Order Lifeforms had steadily increased.
Although the believers consumed increasingly more meat after cultivating the Muscle-Tendon Cleansing Art, the five Adult Tai Sui and the continuously produced Blood Pills ensured that they still had more than enough food.
Over these two hundred years, they should have produced an even larger population, but their living environment had restricted their development.
Simply put, the population density was too high.
The more people there were, the more crowded their living space became. Furthermore, with cultivation allowing them to constantly experience themselves growing stronger, their desire to reproduce naturally declined.
Now, outside the tribes, nearly every patch of level ground had been planted with Blood-Coagulation Flowers.
If not for that, his believers would likely have begun expanding the tribes long ago instead of remaining crowded within the five main cities.
Yang Fan was not in any hurry. Although a large population could increase the chances of geniuses emerging, with his Evolution Talent, a population base of 250,000 was enough for the time being.
Human development was a matter of survival of the fittest.
Those with better talent and higher comprehension were more likely to survive and more likely to leave descendants.
After generation upon generation of reproduction, this still had a positive effect on the civilization as a whole.
Compared to the advantages brought by population itself, the resource profits generated by Blood-Coagulation Flowers were more important.
On the other hand, because of the Blood Pills, the number of First-Order Lifeforms among the believers had increased dramatically over these two hundred years, yet no Second-Order Lifeforms had appeared.
Through his exchanges with those geniuses, Yang Fan had also found the reason.
Descendants of influential major families would purchase medicinal pills produced in cultivation Divine Kingdoms.
Just one pill could help believers cleanse their tendons and marrow, greatly improving their aptitude, but the price was quite high.
By comparison, Blood Pills produced in batches by the Hundred Spirits Blood Pool were considered low-grade. The quantity was large, but the quality was lacking.
Yang Fan was not in a hurry about this. For now, his large amount of funds still needed to be invested into the Divine Kingdom.
Sharpening the axe did not delay the cutting of firewood. As long as he had sufficient resources and his Evolution Talent, would it not be easy to surpass others?
After interacting with these family geniuses for some time, Yang Fan's understanding of Divine Kingdom development had completely changed.
In the past, Yang Fan had considered ecological stability, species diversity, the sustainable development of the Divine Kingdom, and its ability to be self-sufficient.
But after coming into contact with these geniuses, Yang Fan discovered that they followed an entirely different path.
They used excess land to grow spiritual plants, raised spiritual beasts in the water, and kept demon beasts in the mountains, forests, and skies.
Everyone did these things, but these family geniuses had only one purpose: earning Faith Points. They sold everything at regular intervals and did not care at all whether it affected the ecology.
All the resources they obtained were invested into their believers' cultivation. Strength always came first.
What if the ecological balance was destroyed? Just buy some resources and put them in. As long as those beasts did not starve to death, that was enough.
What if low-level demon beasts died on a large scale? Their adaptability was simply too weak. Replace them with a batch that was reasonably priced and more adaptable.
What if spiritual plants fell ill? Sell them cheaply at once and buy other seeds. Having fewer troubles and not wasting the believers' time was more important.
In short, every resource in a Divine Kingdom existed to serve the strength of its believers.
