Transforming the World, an Energy Crisis
Yunping City.
Liu Yi gazed at the city before him, which had expanded twentyfold; the familiar appearance of the past was long gone.
This was the first city he saw in the mortal world after leaving the Heavenly Revelation Sect.
He stayed here for several months back then, acting as a chivalrous figure and capturing evildoers to test his skills, specifically the Yang-Devouring Cultivation Method.
I owe my current success to the contributions of those people.
Little Yellow noticed him staring intently at Yunping City, a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes:
"Master, is there anything special about Yunping City? Why did you come here specifically?"
Liu Yi replied softly, "This is the first city I've arrived in since leaving the Heavenly Revelation Sect."
I have now deduced the Cultivation Method for the next realm of the Divine Acupoint Realm, the Dao Soul Realm. However, to cultivate the Dao Soul Realm, one must unite knowledge and action and recognize one's true nature.
I want to revisit this place; perhaps it will help me see my true self.
Little Yellow suddenly realized. "So this is the first city our master visited in the mortal realm after being expelled from the Heavenly Revelation Sect!"
Liu Yi raised his hand and slapped Little Yellow on the head, glaring at it. "If you can't speak properly, then shut up."
After saying that, he cast a divine light onto Little Yellow, and then his own body flashed with light, concealing the appearances of both of them.
After all, he's quite well-known now and doesn't want to attract too much attention; he just wants to quietly revisit the place.
Liu Yi flew towards the city gate with Little Yellow. Along the way, he saw many people flying on swords, riding spirit beasts, or flying boats, all landing at the city gate.
At the city gate, cars and people mingled, flowing endlessly.
He looked at everything before him and felt completely unfamiliar, as if he had traveled to another world.
But deep down, I also felt that this was how a world where cultivation was possible should be.
Instead of the ancient feudal society that was devoid of any Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, as it was before.
The mortal world and the cultivation Immortal Realm are clearly separated, making the whole world seem somewhat distorted.
Liu Yi noticed that the city wall in front of him was also set up with a formation. There were six wide city gates, and only eight soldiers at each gate to maintain basic order.
He followed the crowd slowly into the city. He saw that the streets were wide, with separate lanes for vehicles and pedestrians, and even traffic lights.
The bustling crowds and vehicles, along with the rows of brick houses lining both sides of the street, gave him a fleeting illusion of returning to his previous life on Earth.
He looked at everything before him, a look of satisfaction on his face.
It seems that some of these system hosts have indeed tried to apply his "Encyclopedia of Daily Life" to real life.
What pleased him even more was that the thatched hut and dirt road of the past had long since disappeared.
Even the former scenes of emaciated people, clothed in hemp, beggars everywhere, Perfected Person running rampant have disappeared.
Now everyone is dressed in clean and presentable clothes, has a rosy complexion, and possesses cultivation.
The poverty and backwardness of the past have long since disappeared.
He looked up and saw that the once illustrious Zhao mansion had vanished.
He still remembers that a servant was once beaten twenty times with a cane by the steward of the manor for dozing off on night duty, leaving him on the verge of death.
As Liu Yi walked along the road, looking at the earth-shaking changes, he became more and more satisfied and excited.
These changes stem primarily from the Fairness System he created.
Thinking about this, a strong sense of pride in changing the world welled up in my heart.
A vague realization dawned on him: influenced by his past life, he too harbored a desire to change the world and break the old order.
To create more livelihoods for ordinary people and realize the idea of changing the world.
But bringing down the lofty cultivators and powerful figures from their pedestals is only one part of it, not his true intention.
"I see. No wonder I always felt that my pursuits were more than just these."
Luckily, I went out for a walk; otherwise, I don't know when I would have realized this.
Thinking of this, Liu Yi became even more excited. He hadn't expected to understand part of his true nature so soon after arriving in Yunping City.
He immediately quickened his pace, walking and stopping frequently to observe his surroundings.
However, as he observed more closely, his brows furrowed slightly, and he looked up at the sky, his eyes flashing with a divine light.
As Sun hits the ground, it is absorbed by the subsystem and converted into stored energy.
In crowded areas, the sunlight, barely setting, is absorbed almost entirely while still in the air.
Moreover, the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi inside the city is much thinner than that outside the city.
Seeing this, Liu Yi instantly understood that it was because there were too many cultivators, coupled with the absorption by the subsystem.
Even abundant Sun can be completely absorbed by the subsystem in densely populated areas.
His expression immediately turned serious.
He discovered a serious problem after the system became widespread: an energy crisis.
Although the power of Sun, lunar energy, and stellar energy seems inexhaustible, the amount of energy that actually reaches the ground each day is actually limited.
If there are few cultivators, it's fine, but once the number increases, even if the Sun, lunar energy, and star energy are abundant, it will be difficult to meet everyone's cultivation needs.
For now, things are alright. The cultivation levels of all the system hosts are not high, and the Spiritual Qi in the world is gradually increasing.
There is no energy crisis yet, but we will inevitably face this predicament in the future.
Thinking about this, he couldn't help but feel a headache coming on.
Unexpectedly, after going around in circles, the problem still comes back to energy.
At this moment, he couldn't think of a good solution, although there was one temporary method.
That would involve diverting some energy from the Xuanyi World to supply the system's host, but this is ultimately not a long-term solution and is not appropriate.
Of course, he could also set up Spiritual Qi Conversion Grand Formation like those cultivation sects.
The fundamental principle of this formation, to put it simply, is to intercept and utilize the energy scattered throughout the world.
If he were to have all system hosts set up such an array, the sheer number of them would likely intercept all the energy falling into the heavens and earth.
At that time, the Heavenly Dao of the Azure Billows Realm will likely unleash divine punishment immediately, turning him into ashes.
He had considered setting up a Chaos Celestial Stars Grand Formation to help the Azure Billows Realm transform the void turbulence, so that the energy generated could be used by the system host.
However, his strength is currently too weak to set up such a large formation for Great Chiliocosm world like the Azure Billows Realm.
For a moment, the more he thought about it, the more his head ached, and he didn't know what to do.
The other system masters were all leisurely enjoying the fruits of victory behind the scenes.
He alone had to painstakingly solve various problems step by step, worrying himself sick over the system's affairs.
But it was precisely because of this that he felt everything had a real tactile quality, rather than being ethereal and intangible, as if with the system, there were no difficulties.
But that's not the case at all; it's more like someone is manipulating everything behind the scenes, solving all their problems.
Just like him now, he's helping the system hosts solve problems, but none of the system hosts know the real situation; they're just enjoying the convenience the system brings.
Fortunately, his Fairness System does not eliminate the host; they are simply equals, interdependent, and mutually supportive.
