Following the planned design, Li Xingkong put in a lot of effort to finalize the design draft for the entire Underworld.
During this period, in order to create a highly realistic model, Li Xingkong also crafted a few gadgets, which could be used as models on the one hand, and as storage space on the other.
Thus, after nearly 300 years, Li Xingkong finally completed the trivial matters he needed to handle during this period of seclusion.
With the Golden Core One Revolution, one enters the realm of supernatural powers, opens up the Three Palaces, and designs the Underworld.
Li Xingkong's gains from this seclusion were undoubtedly enormous. Not only did his strength increase several times over, but his methods also became more diverse.
With the completion of these Three Palaces, it can be said that Li Xingkong has truly overcome the second tribulation of cultivation: the Soul Tribulation.
In addition, the system has added another practical course for Li Xingkong: building the Underworld. The design plan has been finalized, and he only needs to find a place to design it after leaving the pass, and this course will be considered successfully completed.
Of course, even if the system didn't assign these courses, Li Xingkong himself might still have the idea, since creating wonders is also one of Li Xingkong's hobbies.
From his time on Earth Star until now, having achieved the Golden Core, Li Xingkong has used this power primarily to create wonders. Compared to fighting and killing, he still prefers the feeling of creation.
As for how much he liked his creations, that's not necessarily true. He simply enjoyed the process of creation. As you can see, after the various wonders he constructed were completed, he handed them over to Divine Land for management and didn't inquire about them any further.
If this were in a feudal society, Li Xingkong were emperor, his spectacular feats would have caused widespread panic and chaos. But the situation is different now.
It's a spectacle, but it doesn't require anyone else's involvement; he can do it all by himself.
After reviewing all the gains he had made in his nearly 300 years of seclusion and making sure there were no omissions, Li Xingkong swayed and stepped out of the corona.
After so many years of seclusion, Li Xingkong still hadn't seen anyone, and he already felt like an old relic.
To keep up with the times, you still need to spend more time in crowded places.
After 200 years of development, I wonder what Divine Land is like now.
Gently drifting beyond the sun, Li Xingkong began to observe the situation of the entire galaxy.
It has to be said that the Solar System is much more lively now than before I went into seclusion. Spaceships of all sizes come and go, and all sorts of strange and wonderful space shops are set up in every corner of the galaxy. It is difficult to even observe anything outside the Solar System at a glance.
Although space is vast, the cultivators from Divine Land traveled to and from various places, creating a scene of prosperity.
Besides the cultivators, there were also quite a few aliens wandering in space wearing only thin clothes. All the signs on them indicated that they were indeed beneficiaries of the transformation methods used by the cultivators of Divine Land.
The traces of the cultivators' activities are no longer limited to the few planets near Earth. There are also numerous traces of cultivators at the edge of the star system, flying towards other nearby star systems in a novel type of spaceship.
Li Xingkong looked around and saw that apart from a larger number of people, nothing else seemed to have changed much.
As for the various strange spaceships and means of transportation, they are merely different styles and have no fundamental changes.
As he moved further and further away from the sun, and after arriving near Mercury, he found himself surrounded by some people, with quite a few cultivators traveling around in spaceships.
Li Xingkong spread his Divine Sense and first explored the entire Mercury.
Before he went into seclusion, Zhang Yumeng had told him about the previous arrangements that Divine Land had made for several planets. He remembered that at that time, it was said that Mercury was basically inhabited by Qi Refining cultivators.
After scanning, Li Xingkong discovered that Mercury is now not so much dominated by Qi Refining cultivators, but rather a place where Qi Refining cultivators and ordinary people live together.
Although there are many cultivators, there are also quite a few ordinary people.
Most ordinary people also possess Spiritual Root, and it seems they are indeed children born to cultivators, but for some reason, they have not begun cultivating.
Li Xingkong observed them more closely this time, and he discovered that these ordinary people were indeed born into cultivator families, and most of their immediate family members were also cultivators.
This puzzled Li Xingkong. Cultivation, as a basic course, has been part of the education system in Divine Land for quite some time now. Logically, there should be fewer ordinary people now, but judging from the current situation, it seems that this is not the case.
In a flash, Li Xingkong directly entered Mercury.
With the help of numerous formations, Mercury now resembles Earth Star in some ways. However, due to its size, the plants and buildings here have subtle variations unique to this planet.
Li Xingkong arrived at a courtyard where three or five children were gathered, looking at a tree. A small hovering robot was slowly flying in the tree, its target a bunch of fruit.
They were clearly completely unaware of Li Xingkong's arrival.
It wasn't until he reached the children that they noticed a stranger had come into their lives.
Seeing Li Xingkong's entrance, the children didn't seem surprised; instead, they looked at him with curiosity.
"Uncle, are you a cultivator?"
Li Xingkong nodded and moved closer.
Standing in front of these children, Li Xingkong realized that although they possessed Spiritual Root and the Spiritual Qi around them was abundant, their physical condition was only slightly more robust than that of ordinary people in Li Xingkong's era, showing no signs of cultivation whatsoever.
The fact that such young children haven't cultivated might be due to their age, but in the areas where Li Xingkong's Divine Sense swept across, there were far more than just these children who hadn't cultivated; there were also many adults, even middle-aged people, who showed no signs of having cultivated.
"That shouldn't be the case."
Li Xingkong pondered for a few seconds.
"When I grow up, I want to be a monk too, and I want to travel in space."
"Keep dreaming. You don't even have a spot, what are you trying to achieve by cultivating immortality?"
Seeing that Li Xingkong didn't seem so scary, the children started playing around again. However, after seeing Li Xingkong, they completely forgot about the little robot picking fruit in the tree and began their playful cultivation.
Li Xingkong squatted down and reached out to pat the head of the child who had spoken.
"Little friend, what's this about the limited spots you just mentioned?"
"A spot is a spot. If you don't even understand that, how can you become a cultivator?"
"Exactly, you idiot cultivator, you don't even know this?"
The children around me burst into laughter, seemingly believing that this was a matter of common sense that everyone should know.
"Yes, yes, I am indeed a bit slow. Could you explain it to me?"
Li Xingkong continued their conversation.
"Our parents would take us to draw lots. If we drew a lot, we could cultivate; if we didn't, we couldn't. Er Gou, the Ergou brother in the village, drew a lot two years ago and is now a cultivator."
"Don't you study spiritual practice during your classes?"
"If I don't learn, the teacher won't teach me."
The children shook their heads.
Seeing that the children were simple-minded and he couldn't get any information out of them, Li Xingkong casually "conjured" a few candies and gave them to them.
The children, clutching their candy, ran off laughing and joking, but Li Xingkong stopped.
