Chapter 84 (continued)
So where did Jiang Yuqing's Shock Points come from?
[Lifespan Points +50 years.]
I don't know what happy thing Lianlian has thought of this time, but she keeps adding some Lifespan Points to her.
Li Yang smiled knowingly, but then suddenly realized what was going on.
Li Yang looked at Jiang Yuqing and asked, "You can provide yourself with Shock Points?"
Jiang Yuqing: "!!!"
[Jiang Yuqing's Shock Points increased by 1000 points.]
His expression was so obvious that Li Yang knew he had hit the nail on the head.
She pondered for a moment and said, "Your ability is quite impressive, generating Shock Points for yourself... Wait, does this comply with the law of conservation of energy?"
Jiang Yuqing explained dryly, "I wasn't like this before..."
It would have been better if he hadn't explained; the more he explained, the more he revealed.
Li Yang was incredibly astute; she instantly deduced the logic behind it and murmured, "So, you were only able to generate Shock Points on your own after meeting me?"
Jiang Yuqing: "..."
He was impressed; this guy was incredibly quick-witted.
Li Yang continued, "Others can certainly shock you, but you can't produce it yourself... Hmm, is it because I'm a Nature Department Heavenly Fortune Bearer?"
Jiang Yuqing, too lazy to pretend, laid it all out. "I don't know either, but those Heavenly Fortune Bearer are meant to benefit those around them..."
Li Yang had some vague guesses in her mind.
Niu Qianqian had told her before that the Nature Department requires students to study the entire department, although most Nature Department students don't choose to study the entire department because their energy is really limited.
However, Li Yang's Longevity System can undoubtedly improve all aspects of his life.
As long as one's lifespan is long enough, there's no need to worry about limited energy.
Those Heavenly Fortune Bearer will indeed benefit the corresponding faction.
Could it be that those Heavenly Fortune Bearer under the Nature Department, due to the influence of their entire element, are able to benefit those Heavenly Fortune Bearer under other elements?
Li Yang found it increasingly unbelievable and exclaimed, "Sister Longevity, you're amazing!"
Originally, Li Yang was thinking about how to discuss cooperation with Jiang Yuqing, but now there's no need to even discuss it.
Li Yang bluntly stated, "You can't take advantage of me for nothing."
Jiang Yuqing had a bad feeling.
"I know you're too embarrassed to freeload, so how about this..." Li Yang said, "Just refine pills for me for free."
[Shock Points from Jiang Yuqing +200 points.]
Li Yang: "I need 200 Star Recovery Pill before nightfall."
Jiang Yuqing: "!"
[Jiang Yuqing's Shock Points +500 points.]
He couldn't help but exclaim, "200! That's 20,000 merit points!"
Li Yang added, "Oh, I underestimated you. 400."
[Jiang Yuqing's Shock Points increased by 1000 points.]
Jiang Yuqing's face turned pale and then flushed.
He was both shocked by Li Yang's outrageous demands and by the sheer Shock Points he was experiencing.
What the heck!
The more outrageous Li Yang's demands, the more Shock Points he became.
Is this what they call...?
Pain and pleasure intertwined?
Li Yang ignored Jiang Yuqing and turned to Little Ox, saying, "The yard isn't big enough. Let me knock down the wall next to it."
The Little Ox stammered, "Okay... okay."
One courtyard isn't enough, so let's have two.
Two courtyards weren't enough, so we had three, four, or even five.
Li Yang was previously troubled by the lack of the Star Recovery Pill, but now that Jiang Yuqing has provided supplies, she has nothing to worry about anymore.
The most urgent task is to expand the scale of planting and increase the lifespan of crops.
Although Li Yang meticulously handled the scene when he rescued Jiang Yuqing, the other party might still be able to trace the clues back if they have special investigative methods.
Li Yang had never considered establishing a base within the Divine Miracle.
The so-called base is just a sitting duck; if it were actually built, wouldn't it just be waiting to be attacked?
But now...
It had to be built.
Li Yang was reluctant to part with the Star Plant covering the ground.
After harvesting, another batch is planted, and that's it for life again. This efficiency is comparable to that of god-level mutated crops!
Li Yang slammed a hammer into the wall next to him, and it took some effort to flatten it.
She couldn't help but start missing Ying Qi.
If Ying Qi were here, the entire area would be blasted to smithereens.
Li Yang has even built himself a "fortress"!
Of course, it shouldn't be that extreme; they should requisition the adjacent yard first.
After all, Little Ox alone can't plant that many Star Plant.
Li Yang felt that they were short-handed again.
It would be great if we could find the Little Ox's family.
Unfortunately, finding a few Little Ox in this Divine Miracle is like finding a needle in a haystack.
However, Li Yang had another thought and looked at the Little Ox, asking, "Second Brother, how does your Plow Ox Clan improve its cultivation level?"
Little Ox wiped the sweat from his brow and said, "Take the Realm-Breaking Pill..."
Li Yang said, "Isn't the goal to break through the realm through battle?"
The Little Ox shook its head in fright. "No, no! We're not suited for fighting. We can't fight unless we're forced into a corner."
Li Yang: "..."
She found it hard to understand, after all, they were different species.
Li Yang then asked, "Did your parents both break through to higher realms by taking Realm-Breaking Pill?"
"Yes..." Little Ox said, "This year's harvest was quite good, and Mom and Dad saved up some money to buy Realm-Breaking Pill for both my brother and me, but..."
As he spoke, Little Ox thought about the family's current desolate situation of being scattered, and his eyes welled up with tears again.
Li Yang looked at Jiang Yuqing and asked, "Did you bring any Realm-Breaking Pill?"
Jiang Yuqing: "I brought some, but I only have enough for myself, I can't..."
"Go and break through the borders through war."
"I'm just an alchemist..." Jiang Yuqing shook his head vigorously, "I can't break through to a higher realm through battle; that would corrupt my Dao heart!"
Li Yang decided to respect everyone's path of cultivation, and then asked, "Can you refine Realm-Breaking Pill?"
Jiang Yuqing: "..." This pile of materials can actually be used to refine Realm-Breaking Pill.
Li Yang said, "Refine a Realm-Breaking Pill for Little Ox, and make sure it's of the highest quality possible."
Upon hearing this, the Little Ox's eyes welled up with tears even more. "Big... brother..."
Li Yang stated bluntly, "I need you to plant more Star Plant, so you should focus on improving your cultivation level as much as possible."
Jiang Yuqing asked curiously, "Why did you want him to plant Star Plant?"
Li Yang said calmly, "Without these Star Plant, would you have so many materials?"
Jiang Yuqing: "..." That makes a lot of sense, but something feels off.
Li Yang said, "The Divine Miracle is a good place, and I won't waste the opportunity to improve my cultivation here. However, the number of the Astral Realm creatures outside is limited, so planting and killing them myself is also a form of training."
[Jiang Yuqing's Shock Points +500 points.]
He suddenly realized!
Jiang Yuqing looked at Li Yang in shock. "I know what you've been collecting!"
Li Yang: "?"
He guessed all of that?
However, Li Yang didn't care. If he guessed it, so be it. As fellow Heavenly Fortune Bearer, it's good to understand each other better.
Jiang Yuqing's next sentence was. "Are you collecting Slaughter Points?"
Li Yang: "..."
Jiang Yuqing grew increasingly horrified, saying, "No wonder you're so ruthless, killing wherever you go... Take these Star Plant, for example, killing them once wasn't enough for you, you actually want to kill them generation after generation..."
[Jiang Yuqing's Shock Points increased by 1000 points.]
The more he imagined it, the more terrifying it became. Looking at Li Yang now, he felt like he was looking at a great demon king.
In a sense, Li Yang is indeed a great demon king.
Li Yang never expected that this person's thought process would be so bizarre.
However, upon closer reflection, Jiang Yuqing's words do make a lot of sense.
The way you gain Lifespan Points from harvesting plants is indeed quite difficult to predict.
But this thing Slaughter Points...
Is someone actually collecting Slaughter Points?
Li Yang calmly replied, "You guessed that."
[Jiang Yuqing's Shock Points increased by 1000 points.]
Jiang Yuqing took a light breath and said, "As expected of you."
Compared to the Slaughter System, his Shock System is quite user-friendly.
However, Jiang Yuqing quickly realized something was amiss and asked, "You seem to favor the Killing Star Plant..."
Li Yang remained calm and said, "It's not that I'm biased towards Star Plant, but rather that I won't kill indiscriminately for the sake of Slaughter Points."
Jiang Yuqing: "!"
[Jiang Yuqing's Shock Points increased by 1000 points.]
This time, he was shocked by Li Yang's principled nature.
Upon closer reflection, Li Yang's conduct is actually quite upright.
Despite possessing a terrifying villain system, she didn't become addicted to killing; instead, she chose a very restrained path of cultivation.
Jiang Yuqing grew increasingly surprised, saying, "No wonder you've focused on the Nature Department... no wonder you've been planting with everyone... this is indeed a safer way to collect Slaughter Points."
Li Yang didn't offer any further explanation.
This person's imagination is more logical than her fabricated story.
Jiang Yuqing's respect for Li Yang grew even stronger. It wasn't easy for him; he had a powerful demon system and was still trying to be a good person...
Jiang Yuqing replied quickly, "Don't worry! I will definitely refine an excellent Realm-Breaking Pill Niu Er."
"Don't forget the Star Recovery Pill."
Jiang Yuqing's lips twitched. "I'd like to forget, but can I?"
Jiang Yuqing can refine pills efficiently when they have Shock Points.
A mere 300 pieces, it's only a matter of time.
He just needs to organize the materials and improve his Spirit Points so that he can create a more suitable elixir formula.
After the Spirit Points of the Pill Department is increased, it becomes able to sense the materials used in alchemy.
There are countless materials in the world; if we were to name them all, no one could remember them all.
By sensing the properties of materials through Spirit Points, a rough classification can be made.
