Having successfully resurrected several cultivators, Li Xingkong finally breathed a sigh of relief.
This is no simpler than reviving someone within the Venus Grand Formation. After all, within the array, after a person dies, their original physical body is only slightly damaged, but it still exists. The array only needs to repair it before they can be revived.
However, the Soul-Guiding Banner only brings souls; the physical bodies are completely gone. It will take a lot of effort to revive them.
Fortunately, he lived up to expectations, and neither the ritual implements nor the Soul-Guiding Banner failed him.
This simple rescue also played a significant role for Li Xingkong himself.
It's important to know that he plans to reopen the Underworld later, and this Soul-Guiding Banner is an indispensable tool in the Underworld.
If we want the deceased to enter the Samsara normally, we must first be able to bring their soul back to the Underworld.
Therefore, the pre-made Soul-Guiding Banner was able to be used smoothly, which brought Li Xingkong's plan to open up the Underworld one step closer.
Of course, this plan requires many things, and for Li Xingkong at present, rebuilding the Underworld is still a long way off.
As things stand, Li Xingkong can think of several problems.
The location of the Underworld, the selection of staff, the judgment of souls, and how to specifically implement the so-called Six Paths of Reincarnation are all problems that Li Xingkong currently has no good solutions to.
Fortunately, the system did not set a time limit for Li Xingkong, and his work was not in a hurry.
The first encounter with these Snail People has come to a close. Although the Snail People suffered heavy losses and were basically wiped out, Li Xingkong did not think that this matter would end here.
These Snail People lost a Star Destroyer to them; how could they possibly let it go?
It's like the Eagle Country having its aircraft carrier sunk in its own Great Lakes, and by indigenous people no less. No one would swallow such an insult.
The destruction of these Snail People fleets wouldn't remain a secret for long. Li Xingkong didn't believe that such massive star destroyers wouldn't have a way to communicate with their home planet.
Even if the Star Destroyer that was ultimately destroyed didn't have time to report the news of its destruction, the Snail People would definitely send people to investigate after such a long period of lost contact.
Moreover, the military strength of this newcomer is estimated to be no weaker than that of the previous one.
After all, even the Star Destroyer failed, so sending a few more small Karami would just be throwing them away.
In novels and movies, an entire army disappears, and then one or two incompetent investigators are sent to investigate. Either they're completely useless, or they've offended their superiors.
Judging from the way these Snail People behave, they are basically incompatible with Divine Land, and it's only a matter of time before they take action.
Judging from Divine Land's current overall strength, it would be somewhat difficult for it to contend with the Snail People.
Faced with that colossal star destroyer, the cultivators' current methods were still somewhat insufficient to contend with it.
Although Earth Star's technological level should experience a boom with the arrival of so many aliens, the Snail People don't have much time left for them.
It takes time for these Snail People to send information back to their home planet, and it also takes time for their fleet to migrate from their home planet. Even with the worst-case scenario, it took 12 years for the first star destroyer to arrive in the Solar System, so if we assume a round trip takes 24 years, it would only be a fleeting moment.
The development of theoretical science and technology takes time, and the industrialization and practical application of new technologies also take time; this cannot be accomplished overnight.
Although this battle appears to have been a resounding victory, the problems that Earth Star will face afterward should not be underestimated.
The gap in strength on Earth Star is still quite large.
Although there are many cultivators in the Qi Refining Stage, and they could hold their own against some small ships in a real battle, if they cannot effectively damage the enemy's main warships, it will all be in vain in the end.
To grow to the point of being able to rival the Snail People in just 24 years, all cultivators in the entire Divine Land need to accelerate their progress even further.
Cultivation itself is a slow process; it uses time as a price to gradually improve one's overall qualities, enhancing physical strength while extending lifespan and cultivating character.
This is the most orthodox and suitable way of cultivation.
However, under the current circumstances, this most orthodox method of cultivation is no longer quite suitable.
Li Xingkong needed a faster way of cultivation to allow cultivators in Divine Land to grow faster, even if it meant incurring some shortcomings.
Of course, Li Xingkong would not use those evil spells that only sought speed, as the cost of such spells was too high, often consuming his life essence and shortening his lifespan, and it was very difficult to recover from such losses.
Li Xingkong's resurrection can only restore a cultivator to the state before death. If the cultivator died naturally due to the end of his lifespan, even if Li Xingkong saves him, he will still be in a near-death state.
I saw a rather interesting book called "Scarlet Heart Art" in Divine Land before. It allows multiple people to cultivate simultaneously, increasing their cultivation speed. This spell was even included in the system because of its ingenious idea.
I wonder how well this cultivation method has been perfected now.
If such a spell were to assist, the speed of cultivation would likely be even faster.
Even so, after reaching the Foundation Establishment, the speed of cultivation still doesn't increase much.
The Divine Land is not lacking in Qi Refining cultivators, but rather in high-end combat power, namely, cultivators above the Foundation Establishment.
What Li Xingkong wants to do now is to quickly help cultivators enter the Foundation Establishment Stage, or even advance further within the Foundation Establishment Stage.
"Everyone has different talents, and their level of passion for cultivation also varies. Finding a way for everyone to quickly improve their cultivation level is simply too difficult."
"If only I could sense the cultivators' current state, I could help them cultivate."
Thinking of this, Li Xingkong chuckled somewhat.
If this were truly achievable, what would be the point of having other cultivators?
"Speed up your cultivation... speed up your cultivation..."
Li Xingkong for a long time, but couldn't come up with a concrete plan.
Suddenly, an idea struck him.
While we're all cultivating, my cultivation speed seems to be much faster than others. If I can figure out the reason why my cultivation is so fast, can others replicate this method?
With this in mind, Li Xingkong first conducted a thorough self-examination.
Having only explored halfway through, Li Xingkong already knew the reason for his rapid cultivation.
What else could it be but the system's blessing?
Without the system, he wouldn't even know where he'd be working, let alone begin his cultivation.
