#916 - Difference between Immortals and Mortals

Of course, to manage this land, comparable in size to the Eurasian continent, along with the fishponds, requires long-term planning. After all, this isn't just a matter of a few acres of land nearby.

To ensure the long-term inheritance and development potential of this family business, the current high-level members of the Heavenly Sect collectively discussed and consulted the intelligent brain, Xiaowu, for detailed calculations before the development plan was freshly released.

Although the series of farming and breeding tasks issued to the disciples as sect missions seemed somewhat disordered and chaotic.

It was as if everyone was flying around their base in flying magical instruments, scattering various spiritual plant seeds, tree seeds, grass seeds, etc., in a haphazard manner, a complete mess.

But in fact, these were all carefully calculated and planned measures by Xiaowu.

Which areas and terrains within the base are suitable for planting or breeding what resources, whether it is compound sowing or separate breeding, raising chickens or planting wheat, opening tea gardens or sowing various spices, etc.

Everything is within the plan!

According to the current planning version, the entire logistics base will eventually develop into a comprehensive small world dominated by various native and primitive forests, grasslands, rivers, and other natural conditions, supplemented by various deserts, sand seas, snow regions, and stone beaches.

The main emphasis is on constructing a self-consistent system of exchange with healthy cycles for various species.

Rather than a purely utilitarian, ultra-large-scale agricultural, forestry, animal husbandry, and fishery production base...

At that time, because it is artificially constructed, the biological chain in this area may not be too complete. After all, various mosquitoes, cockroaches, and parasite-like bottom-level species are mostly harmful to humans.

However, a large number of trees, grasses, shrubs, etc., with complete varieties, will still constitute the main species in the entire base space, while various spiritual-level plants, herbs, melons, fruits, spiritual grains, etc., will only be selectively and centrally cultivated.

In short, according to the ideas of the current Qingye Sect Leader and the high-level members of the Heavenly Sect, the overall goal of this base at this stage is to ensure the daily cultivation supply within the sect and to be self-sufficient.

And then, on this basis, there can be a slight surplus~

Frankly speaking, this goal is obviously set more conservatively, or even too steadily, by Qingye and others, but it is not incomprehensible.

After all, the saying "Give a pint, they'll thank you; give a peck, they'll hate you" is not uncommon in this world.

Fortunately, this huge base is there, it can't run away. With the strength of the Heavenly Sect, no one dares to snatch it. If there is a real need in the future, it will be fine to expand the planting area.

With so many azure trees planted by Liang Yue, there is no shortage of spiritual liquid to ripen various herbs.

......

Time flies, and another two months have passed in the blink of an eye.

During this time, Liang Yue was still muddling through his days. He did not choose to break through and advance because his cultivation had reached the pinnacle of the human realm, the peak below immortals, and his spiritual realm was also complete and flawless.

This was not because Liang Yue's accumulation was insufficient, but was intentional.

On the one hand, because with the long periods of leisure these days, his mind was also full of ideas, and for a time he had new inspiration regarding cultivation.

Although most of these thoughts and whims, after consulting with his mother, had been determined to be things that his current realm could not handle, and he would need to break through to a higher level to try.

But according to these thoughts, there were always some places that could be used by analogy to continuously improve his cultivation.

Ultimately, the difference between immortals and mortals is like clouds and mud.

This breakthrough originating from the level of great life cannot be ignored.

On the other hand, after the seventh system permission upgrade was completed, the next level of permission upgrade task could not be promoted through normal means for the time being due to a missing prerequisite condition.

In the past, as long as Liang Yue's own strength, agility, physique, and spirit attributes reached a certain limit, he could unseal the corresponding system permissions.

This upgrade of permissions, in addition to allowing Liang Yue to further master the system, obtain key information, and obtain more convenient conditions, can also obtain unsealing benefits such as infinite-level lottery draws and the torrent of time.

Before, precisely taking advantage of the upgrade of his stronghold world, Liang Yue had been in the torrent of time formed outside the village, cultivating and comprehending the Dao for a full 10,000 years!

In this long period of 10,000 years of cultivation, his cultivation realm naturally advanced rapidly~

According to the previous rules, Liang Yue's four-dimensional attributes at this moment had already reached the standard for unsealing the next level, or even the next level, of system permissions.

Unfortunately, this upgrade was not as smooth as usual, because in addition to the usual four-dimensional attributes, there was an additional condition.

That is, he needs to participate in a selection competition, and only after winning can he be qualified to unseal this eighth level of system permissions.

The specifications of this competition seem to be not low...

It is not just a casual competition, but a competition launched with the new Trial World of the Heavens as the venue!

Obviously, being able to use the heavens and worlds as a chessboard to lay out such a selection competition is enough to explain many things.

Liang Yue naturally had to deal with it cautiously.

Fortunately, after a conversation with his mother, although he couldn't dig up more inside information from her, he did get some useful information.

For example, selection competitions like this are not small in scope and have a large time span, and will not be completed in a hurry, with a tight rhythm.

According to his mother, time is the least valuable thing in this!

Also, for example, the way the selection competition is conducted is not fixed, and it is not necessary to choose a completely fair arena, and then both sides have similar conditions, common rules, and then compete.

The so-called fairness, although it cannot be said that it is completely ignored, will only be considered within a certain appropriate range.

And within this "appropriate range", whether the participants have become immortals is an important reference standard.

Simply put, the immortal people will be divided into one group, or several groups, and those who have not yet become immortals will be classified into another group.

In addition, the participants in this, are not all lucky ones like Liang Yue who can take the system to the heavens and worlds to experience, and may bring other types of strange opportunities.

And in this competition, there will also be many accidentally involved natives.

If luck and strength are good enough, these intruders also have the possibility of winning, or even seizing the identity and opportunity of their opponents.

Faced with this kind of situation development that can be called a change, Liang Yue naturally has to be more cautious...

So during this time, he did not simply push his cultivation realm upwards, but temporarily stopped and focused his energy on the research of various methods, techniques, and supernatural powers.

Since immortal and mortal are important reference conditions for this competition, then Liang Yue, who is now stuck at the peak of the Tribulation Transcendence stage, will naturally not let go of the great conditions without using them, and rashly run into the immortal-level arena to be a little newbie.

At the very least, he must first survive the first round of the selection competition, and after getting the next round of admission ticket and understanding the ins and outs of the matter, then consider what to do next!
