Chapter 193: Restoring the World’s Spiritual Energy

After a series of guidance work, Lu Dewei had awakened his spirit root and spirit bone, granting him the qualifications to cultivate.

Lu Dewei’s qualifications were not bad. He was a Heaven Spirit Root and had a foundation in martial arts. His future path of cultivation would probably be easier than others.

After imparting the cultivation technique to him, Qin Chuan didn’t give Lu Dewei any time to cultivate and brought him out of the sect.

After all, many things were happening outside right now. If Lu Dewei stayed in the sect for too long, Qin Chuan was afraid that trouble might grow.

Lu Dewei had a wealth of experience, and he knew why Qin Chuan would do so.

After exiting the sect and returning to the outside world, Lu Dewei stared blankly at the room as he recalled everything that he had just experienced. It felt like a dream.

It was hard to imagine that cultivation existed in this world even after he experienced it himself.

Unbelievable!

Unbelievable!

Lu Dewei continued to sigh in his heart, unable to get over it.

However, he soon discovered that the air he breathed in had an indescribable strange smell. It was nauseating, and his head felt heavy.

Lu Dewei pondered.

Could this be the aftereffects of cultivating?

“You must be feeling unwell!” Qin Chuan chuckled softly beside Lu Dewei.

Lu Dewei nodded and asked, “Sect Master, what’s going on? Is this a side effect of cultivation?”

Qin Chuan calmly replied, “Can you sense the surrounding spiritual energy? Isn’t it extremely thin?

“And this is in the Hundred Thousand Mountains. If we were in a city, it would be nonexistent.”

Lu Dewei took in a deep breath and carefully sensed his surroundings. It was exactly as Qin Chuan had said.

Qin Chuan continued, “Spiritual energy is something that cultivators cannot live without. It’s like oxygen for humans.

“If the oxygen content was too low, a human would feel dizzy. Their ears might ring, their limbs would feel weak, and they would feel nauseous.

“If it gets worse, a human will die.

“It’s the same for us cultivators. Once we run out of spiritual energy, we won’t be able to cultivate, but we won’t die.

“Look at how thin the spiritual energy in this world is. Immortal cultivation naturally doesn’t exist.

“You’ve just started cultivating, so your body isn’t used to the transition between the sect and the outside world. But, you’ll slowly get used to it.”

Lu Dewei was enlightened upon hearing this. It was no wonder there were no cultivators in this world.

But how does the Sect Master cultivate?

Also, what was that sect? Was it a mystic realm like those written in the novels?

He remembered that the mystic realm was a special space that was not affected by the laws of the outside world. It was equivalent to a small world.

The spiritual energy there was so rich. Even a pig could cultivate to immortality.

At this thought, Lu Dewei was enlightened. Everything now made sense.

Since Sect Master had a small world, he could recruit all the soldiers from Xia Country and get them all to cultivate.

In that case, there was no need to be afraid when the monsters awakened in the future.

Thus, Lu Dewei shared this idea with Qin Chuan.

Qin Chuan replied, “I’ve considered this before, but even though it is easy to say, it is extremely difficult to achieve.

“First of all, the popularization of cultivation means that everyone will possess great power. “Does the government still have absolute power?

“If the government agrees, how would they manage the large groups of cultivators in the future?

“One must know there are good and evil humans, and the same goes for cultivators.

“Besides, there are all kinds of fish in the sea.

“Although I understand that this kind of situation was unavoidable, my cultivation undertaking is still in its initial stage. If we become too open, I fear chaos will erupt.

“If we fail in the early stages, it would be difficult for me to continue developing my cultivation career.

“The last point is also important. I’ve said before that the spiritual energy in this world is thin and almost nonexistent. It is not suitable for cultivation at all.

“Although the spiritual energy in the sect is dense and cultivation is possible, it is unrealistic to put everyone inside.

“Unless the spiritual energy in this world is restored.”

Restore spiritual energy?

Lu Dewei was a little stunned.

“Sect Master, can spiritual energy be restored?” Lu Dewei asked doubtfully.

“Of course.” Qin Chuan smiled. There was an item in the Merchant Shop called [Spirit Tree Seed].

The [Spirit Tree Seed] would grow into a [Spirit Tree].

For ordinary plants, photosynthesis produces oxygen, but [Spirit Tree] produces spiritual energy.

According to the system’s calculations, only 10 spiritual trees were needed to revive the spiritual energy in this world.

However, exchanging for a spiritual energy seed required 100 million points. 10 pills were one billion points.

Moreover, it was not as simple as exchanging it.

Planting the [Spirit Tree Seed] required nurturing.

It was no ordinary seed. It would take at least a million years for it to grow into a tree.

If one wished to shorten the duration, he would have to spend a lot of points to exchange for items.

This cost was far greater than that of the [Spirit Tree Seed] itself.

All in all, at least five billion points were required to achieve spiritual energy recovery.

Thus, it was not an easy task to restore the world’s spiritual energy.

At the same time, Lu Dewei recalled what Qin Chuan had said and couldn’t help but fall into deep thought.

“I truly understand the management problems that Sect Master mentioned,” Lu Dewei thought to himself.

The reason why Xia Country was more harmonious than other places was because of the strict laws.

This was especially true for those martial arts families. They were powerful, and the government naturally wouldn’t allow them to enter society. Otherwise, society would definitely be in chaos.

Similarly, the power possessed by cultivators would only be stronger. Once they fought, it would be a calamity for all living beings.

From the looks of it, it was indeed difficult to popularize cultivation.

Furthermore, whether it was popularized or not depended on the attitude of the President.

If the President did not wish for cultivation to exist, then a great battle was inevitable.

However, the calamity was about to arrive, so the President probably wouldn’t be so foolish.

Thinking up to this point, Lu Dewei asked Qin Chuan, “Sect Master, do you think I should go to the President to check the situation?”

Qin Chuan was surprised. He casually asked, “How is your relationship with him?”

Lu Dewei nodded. “It’s pretty good.

“We even worked together a long time ago. We have quite a good relationship in private. We can be considered friends!”

After Qin Chuan heard this, he was slightly surprised. He didn’t expect Lu Dewei to have such a high position.

However, according to what he knew, Xia country’s President was very mysterious and had never shown his face. Be it the market or on the Internet, there was very little information about him.

Qin Chuan only knew one thing. This President was the youngest in the history of Xia Country.

However, his results were truly stunning.

In just ten years, Xia Country’s economy had skyrocketed. In addition, they had developed various advanced technological weapons and were in the lead.

It was as if he had used hacks.

Since Lu Dewei said that he had worked with him before, then this President was probably only just about 40 years old. He was indeed very young.

For a time, even Qin Chuan felt somewhat curious.

“How about this?” Qin Chuan took out a jade talisman. “You can go and fish for information. If the official agrees to the existence of cultivation, then it will be a happy ending.

“If not, crush this jade talisman.”

“Sect Master, this jade talisman…” Lu Dewei was a little nervous. He was worried that the jade talisman contained powerful spells to kill the President.

Although he yearned to become an immortal, he did not wish to see him die because of this.

Qin Chuan stared at Lu Dewei, understanding what he was worried about.

Qin Chuan replied, “Don’t worry, I won’t harm him. Moreover, I can’t be bothered to use such methods.”

“The magic in the jade talisman is used to erase memories and make him forget about the cultivation issue you mentioned.”

“Oh… oh!” Lu Dewei heaved a sigh of relief.

Lu Dewei took the jade talisman and examined it with interest.

After all, this was his first time coming into contact with items related to cultivation.

Right then, sounds came from both inside and outside…
