Desire Drives Progress, Technology Explodes
Liu Yi clicked on the entry "Eastern Desolation has been fully covered by the Fairness System," opened the video, and immediately someone on screen explained:
Hello everyone, I'm your friend Han Chengyu.
Based on the system's map display and on-site investigation, I want to tell everyone a fact: the Eastern Desolation has been completely covered by the Fairness System.
The number of system hosts is now at least in the hundreds of billions.
From now on, if anyone wants to earn Energy Points through the referral system, they'll probably have to leave the Eastern Desolation...
After watching the video, he casually opened the comments section.
"The Fairness System has been around for almost fifty years, and the changes in those fifty years have been greater than those in the previous millions of years combined. It's as if the world has been transformed in the blink of an eye."
"Absolutely! Cultivation has now been integrated into every aspect of life. All sorts of novel items are emerging one after another. Even brothels have kept up with the times. The changes are truly tremendous."
"In fact, the emergence of Fairness System has truly changed the Fate of countless people."
The days of hunger and cold in the mortal world are long gone; now everyone is pursuing Spirit Cuisine.
You should know that this used to be something only the high-ranking members of cultivation sects could enjoy every day, but now it's about to become available to ordinary people.
"The earliest areas covered by the system saw their population increase more than tenfold due to abundant food and the fact that everyone was cultivating."
Fortunately, the area is sparsely populated and can easily accommodate so many people.
"Those once aloof cultivators are now caught up in the chaos alongside us mortals."
Even the saintly fairies are now livestreaming to earn Energy Points, something that was unthinkable before.
Now I can proudly tell my ancestors: Your descendants have made something of themselves, being able to witness the performance of the holy fairies."
"Haha, that's right, we mortals have also brought honor to our ancestors."
Even if I meet my ancestors after death, I can proudly say, "I was someone who witnessed the live performance of the holy fairies."
"We can all cultivate now. Although we dare not hope to Longevity immortals and live forever, our lifespan has been extended considerably. Even if we want to die, it won't be so quick."
Right now, it's more practical to figure out how to earn Energy Points.
Now that the entire Eastern Desolation is covered by the system, promoting the system in the future will require traveling to even farther places, making it even more difficult to earn Energy Points.
"Earning Energy Points has never been easy, otherwise why would those saintesses and fairies bother with live-streaming performances? It's precisely because Energy Points are hard to earn."
"Sigh, someone like me who doesn't have any special skills can only sell systems."
Braving wind and rain, never daring to rest for a moment, it feels no different from carrying goods at the docks before, just in a different form.
"Stop complaining! You can still live comfortably even if you don't try to sell the system to earn Energy Points, it's just that your cultivation will be slower."
The reason you feel tired is ultimately because you're pursuing too much and have too much ambition.
"That's right, I never dared to imagine what life is like now before."
The reason you feel tired is because you are too hard on yourself and have too high expectations of yourself.
"Slow down, and you'll find boundless possibilities."
Looking at the comments section, Liu Yi couldn't help but shake his head, increasingly agreeing with that statement:
Before you've eaten your fill, you only have one worry; after you've eaten your fill, you have countless worries.
This is all due to human desires.
However, it is precisely this desire that drives people forward.
There is no absolute good or bad in this matter. The key is to recognize reality, do what you can, and not be overly ambitious or always think about achieving success overnight.
He browsed for a few more moments, then logged out of the system, ended his seclusion, left the room, and headed straight for the front yard.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I passed the restaurant, an enticing aroma wafted towards me.
His eyes lit up, and he stepped into the restaurant, where he saw Little Yellow enjoying his Spirit Cuisine with great relish. He smiled and teased:
"Little Yellow, you're living a pretty good life, even more comfortable than your owner."
Little Yellow was startled by Liu Yi's sudden appearance, then excitedly jumped up, rushed over and hugged his leg, rubbing against him incessantly.
"Master, I miss you so much! You've been in seclusion for another five years, and I'm almost suffocating in this Portable Daoist Sanctum. When can we get out?"
Liu Yi raised his hand and patted Little Yellow's head. "For us cultivators, going into seclusion is a common occurrence."
You did well this time, reaching the Peak of the Dao Image Realm. You haven't let down the Life Origin Fruit and Divine Elixir I gave you."
Little Yellow shook his head smugly and laughed, "Of course! I've been working hard at my training too, okay?"
Oh, by the way, Master, I just made some Spirit Cuisine. Try it! Many of these are things you've never eaten before; it'll definitely broaden your horizons.
Liu Yi walked to the dining table and saw that all the dishes and meats on the table were Spirit Cuisine, and there were different kinds. Even the rice was divided into three kinds. He couldn't help but show surprise.
He picked up his chopsticks and quickly began to taste it.
Little Yellow explained from the side, "These are special beef spirit beast meat and sheep spirit beast meat cultivated by the Beast Breeding Sect and Shennong Sect."
Those spiritual vegetables and rice were also cultivated by the Shennong Sect.
The rice comes in three varieties: Sun Rice, Moon Rice, and Star Rice. Moon Rice grows by absorbing the power of Taiyin, while Star Rice grows by absorbing the power of the stars.
The Shennong Sect is truly amazing at cultivating Spirit Plant; it's like they've been given a cheat code.
In such a short time, they have cultivated so many spirit vegetables and spirit rice, and even collaborated with the Beast Breeding Sect to cultivate special spirit beasts.
As Liu Yi listened, he savored the spirit beast meat, spirit vegetables, and spirit rice.
These Spirit Cuisine taste excellent and contain abundant energy; long-term consumption by cultivators will bring them great benefits.
He wasn't too surprised when Little Yellow said that these were the achievements of the Shennong Sect and Beast Breeding Sect.
Given the combined technological expertise of the two sects, it's not surprising that they were able to cultivate these spiritual vegetables, spiritual rice, and special spiritual beasts; what's surprising is how quickly they did it.
"Shennong Sect and Beast Breeding Sect can be considered treasure-level sects, much more useful than those immortal cultivation sects."
I'm increasingly looking forward to seeing what kind of Spirit Plant and beasts these two sects will cultivate in the future.
Little Yellow nodded repeatedly in agreement. "The future of these two sects is indeed something to look forward to."
However, others have also made many novel inventions, and now, after years of accumulation, various industries are experiencing a technological explosion.
It paused, its eyes full of anticipation. "Take the brothels of the Azure Alliance for example, they previously developed a massage technique that can nourish the meridians."
Now, new methods for nourishing the body and bones have been developed.
Regularly receiving this type of massage not only feels good, but it can also make your body stronger.
As it spoke, it secretly glanced at Liu Yi.
After listening, Liu Yi glanced at Little Yellow, fully understanding its thoughts; it simply wanted him to take it to experience something.
After the Spirit Cuisine on the table was completely devoured, Liu Yi went to the courtyard, took out a rocking chair, lay down, and used his Divine Sense to check the invention missions in the System Mission Hall.
He found information on Moon Rice, Star Rice, various spiritual vegetables, as well as special ox spirit beasts and special sheep spirit beasts, and studied and analyzed their cultivation strategies.
Afterwards, he purchased Star Rice, Moon Rice, and various spiritual vegetables from the System Store and put them into the Xuanyi World.
It is hoped that these Spirit Plant can evolve into even higher quality spiritual rice and spiritual vegetables, just like the Sun Rice.
