The topic of Cave Heaven Upgrading has reached this point, and it has passed the most important threshold, but Mo Chengjun is naturally not the kind of person who can be easily satisfied.
Therefore, he first spent some time sorting out and recording his previous gains, writing them all in the book "Primary Theory of Dongtian", and also drew a complete version of the general map of the Nine Provinces Spiritual Veins.
Despite the randomness of his drawing, the general map of the Nine Provinces Spiritual Vein was just placed on a piece of ice silk silk pulled out of a storage bag. At a glance, it looked like the random scribblings of a child playing around.
But if it really falls into the hands of knowledgeable people, this 'Jiuzhou Spiritual Vein Master Map' will be a priceless treasure.
Not to mention the spiritual objects that may be born at the nodes of the spiritual veins, the great medicines grown, and the precious spiritual materials, the spiritual veins themselves are extremely valuable.
Open caves, arrange formations, cultivate elixirs, plant spiritual rice, and even establish sects...
Of all these, which one can lack spiritual veins?
Of course, in Mo Chengjun's case, he just drew at random. After confirming that the accuracy was OK, he threw it into the storage bag.
What he actually needs to do now is determine the direction of the follow-up topic.
So far in the research, the initial planning has already been completed. He still needs to sort out his thoughts on what to do next.
After much deliberation, Mo Chengjun finally decided on three directions for subsequent topics.
This first direction is the 'Heavenly Transformation of the Spiritual Veins', and the name given by Mo Chengjun is 'The Master Plan of the Design of the Spiritual Veins of the Heavenly Court'.
You must know that all Mo Chengjun's previous research was based on "Kyushu". The spiritual vein structure studied was the Kyushu spiritual vein, and the terrain and landforms were modeled on the land of Kyushu.
Therefore, the obtained general map of spiritual veins must also be named "Kyushu".
But the problem is that the topography of Tianting Cave Sky is completely different from the land of Kyushu. The general map of Kyushu's spiritual veins can only be used as a reference, but it cannot be completely applied!
Well, actually it's not that it can't be applied completely. The requirement is to completely 'flatten' the Heaven and Cave and then reshape it according to the topography of Kyushu.
There is no doubt that Mo Chengjun has such magical powers!
But the problem is that Tianting Cave Heaven is not like this blessed land. There are no humans and no living creatures. Not even a living creature like mosquitoes or flies can be found.
Not to mention the flora and fauna there, the human race alone has hundreds of cities, tens of millions of people, and more than a dozen fairy gates.
If he really wanted to follow this plan, Mo Chengjun would either ignore their lives or let them all move.
But the great migration of tens of millions of people can be accomplished with just words?
Therefore, there is actually only one feasible plan - take the topography of Tianting Cave as the benchmark, and then use the Jiuzhou Spiritual Vein Master Map as a reference to design a spiritual master map that conforms to the topography of Tianting Cave.
And this is the main follow-up research direction for the topic of cave sky upgrade!
As for the second research direction, it is the improvement and correction of spiritual veins.
Things shaped by nature may be full of beauty and magic, but to say they are the best would be too much.
Mere imitation is only the lowest level of scientific research. Once you gain insight into the truth, improvement and transcendence under existing conditions are the ultimate goal.
Therefore, Mo Chengjun was thinking about how to arrange more spiritual veins, increase the speed of spiritual machine circulation, or increase the frequency of splitting of spiritual machine particles under limited conditions.
As long as there is a slight breakthrough in these, the benefits that can be obtained will be magnified geometrically.
Not to mention other things, if you can find a way to 'increase the number of spiritual veins', the most direct benefit is to gain more eyes of the spiritual spring.
If he really had enough Spiritual Fountain Eyes in his hands, even if he could open up a few more Cave Heaven Blessed Lands, it would be easy for him.
As for the third research direction, Mo Chengjun chose the spiritual mine!
Yes, it is derived from the spiritual mine...
The biggest shortcoming of Dongtian Paradise is actually not the concentration of spiritual energy, nor the lack of elixirs and spiritual grains, but the various mineral resources.
Regardless of whether it is ordinary ore or various spiritual ores, Tianting Cave is extremely scarce. At the beginning, even the kitchen knives and agricultural tools used by mortals were pitifully scarce.
In fact, since the beginning of Tianting Cave's opening, the largest purchase of materials has always been various gold, iron and spiritual minerals.
The Wanjie Trading Company that Xue Pan was responsible for even gave specific statistics. No matter which period it was, Tianting Dongtian's consumption of gold, iron and spiritual minerals accounted for more than half of the spiritual stones paid.
At its peak, it even reached 80%!
Especially during the period when there was no 'Immortal Distribution System', too many purchases even caused prices to soar in some areas, which once attracted the attention of the Immortal Sect and Daxuan Dynasty.
It was not until the establishment of Zhenbao Pavilion that the situation became much better, but it was not that the demand became less, but that there were more delivery locations, which drove the price down.
In fact, if you can see the detailed statistical chart of Wanjie Trading Company, it is not difficult to find that the purchase volume of Ling Mine is increasing year by year.
And the rate of growth is getting bigger year by year!
As for the reason?
Not to mention anything else, among the hard-working heavenly soldiers, generals, and puppet Taoists on the floating fairy island, which one does not need a large amount of spiritual materials and spiritual mines?
In fact, one of the important reasons why the Research Institute's "Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals" project team chose the magical power of "Origami Adult" to develop the "Yellow Turban Hercules" is that although it consumes a lot of spiritual materials, it does not consume Spirit mine!
This was all forced out of me!
Well, in Mo Chengjun's view, a complete world should not have real shortcomings.
Therefore, he had long ago listed the 'Spiritual Mine Derivative' as one of the directions for the Dongtian upgrade this time.
It doesn’t matter if it works or not, just give it a try first!
The reason why Mo Chengjun had this idea was actually that when he was traveling in this world, he often went underground and discovered those mineral deposits.
It was also during this process that he had some inspiration.
There was nothing Mo Chengjun could do about those ordinary mineral deposits. Dongtian did not have the conditions and time to form mineral deposits, but when it came to spiritual mineral deposits, he had some inspiration.
And this involves an extremely unique ore—the mother ore!
In Mo Chengjun's view, the so-called spiritual minerals are specific ores paired with special spiritual particles. When supplemented by specific underground environments and conditions, the mineral deposits and spiritual particles will have unique reactions, thus forming various Types of mineral veins.
As for the mother ore, it generally exists at the source of the mineral veins. It is the purest and largest type of ore, and is often surrounded by the same type of ore with the highest quality.
Finding the mother ore in a vein is equivalent to finding the maximum value of a vein.
According to this world, this mother ore is the source of all spiritual minerals. It is because of the existence of this mother ore that other spiritual minerals can be derived.
To be honest, Mo Chengjun expressed strong doubts about this statement, mainly because he felt that it made no sense.
You see, because of the existence of the mother ore, other stones will also become spiritual ores?
This doesn’t make sense!
However, from what Mo Chengjun has seen in the books in this world, this view is actually very common, and can even be said to be recognized by the majority of immortal cultivators.
As for why this recognition occurs?
Mo Chengjun didn't know, maybe he was just following what others said, and everyone agreed after he said it too much.
It is also possible that there is some truth, and once it is spread, everyone will believe it.
Anyway, he couldn't trace the source now, so he just thought he could give it a try. What if it worked?
Therefore, before Mo Chengjun opened a new cave, he asked Xue Pan to prepare a bag of mother ore.
From the most basic cloud iron mother ore, to the rare fine gold mother ore, star silver sand mother ore, etc., there are a total of nine categories, with 27 different sizes.
Naturally, there are no more than twenty types of real spiritual minerals. The main reason is that the mother ore is the highest quality ore among its kind.
Not only are they scarce in quantity, but they also consume a lot of money. It is really not an easy task to gather them all in a short period of time.
Simply speaking, this was also his first attempt, so he was not in a hurry.
…
Well, Mo Chengjun can actually pick out more research directions. The more in-depth a topic is, the more doubts it will generate. You can start a project on just any question.
But Mo Chengjun thought about it and only picked these three.
The reason is also simple. These three directions can actually be carried out simultaneously. As long as they are interspersed with each other and well arranged, it is equivalent to the three subject directions going hand in hand.
Moreover, except for the first topic direction, which he was bound to win, it didn't matter if he failed in the other two.
After deciding on the strategy, Mo Chengjun first spent some time to get the first version of the 'Heavenly Cave Spirit Vein Design Plan'.
The specific process is probably to first use the 'cloud and mist method' to simulate the topography of the Tianting Cave, and then use the 'Jiuzhou Spirit Vein Master Map' as a reference to come up with the design drawing.
This process is actually quite simple, it doesn't take long, and it even feels like it was done in one go.
But looking at this first version of the Tianting Cave Spirit Vein design, Mo Chengjun was not very satisfied.
It's too dogmatic and too imitative. At best, it's just imitation without even the slightest sparkle.
Well, being too easy is also a problem, so Mo Chengjun thought about it again and added three more requirements.
First of all, there must be no faults and no big mistakes, which requires a conservative design.
Secondly, there should be enough upgrade space to prepare for the future upgrade of the blessed land to the small world.
Finally, it is also required that there should be no huge fluctuations and absolutely no major changes in topography.
Well, what was originally a simple matter suddenly became more difficult with the addition of these three requirements.
But Mo Chengjun liked challenges. He devoted himself wholeheartedly and spent countless days and nights, and finally pushed the design to the third version.
In this version, the design drawing is divided into two parts: 'fixed' and 'replaceable'.
Needless to say, the 'fixed' design is the main vein and cannot be moved or moved, but it has been verified and is sure to be correct.
The 'replaceable' part is the shining point of inspiration, which is to seek breakthroughs through various exquisite designs.
In fact, every 'replaceable' part has several backup plans, just to compare the pros and cons horizontally.
After the design drawing was completely completed, it was time to experiment, but at this step, Mo Chengjun encountered difficulties.
Experiments naturally require test subjects, and Mo Chengjun naturally set his sights on the blessed land at his feet.
His original idea was to wipe out the circulation of spiritual veins on the earth beneath his feet, just like before. Even if the blessed land was downgraded to a cave, it didn't matter.
But after he actually took action, the entire blessed land almost collapsed due to him.
The breakdown of the spiritual vein circulation directly affects the most basic spiritual circulation. When the spiritual vein circulation is destroyed, the upper and lower vortexes have a vague tendency to collapse.
This frightened Mo Chengjun. He quickly stopped the destruction and worked hard to maintain the reshaping of the spiritual circulation, thus saving this blessed land.
After everything was stable, Mo Chengjun took a closer look and found that when the cave was upgraded, the basic spiritual cycle and spiritual pulse cycle had been merged into one.
At this time, if he wants to demolish one, it will inevitably affect the other. If it doesn't work well, it will be like a chicken flying over an egg, and it will be completely over!
This result is naturally not what Mo Chengjun wants. He has invested a lot of materials in this blessed land, and the Eye of Spiritual Spring alone cost more than a thousand.
If this fails, the loss will be too great!
In fact, the best solution to this situation is to open another cave in the sky and shape the earth. But the problem is that even as powerful as Mo Chengjun, he feels that there is not much 'surplus food' in his hands.
So, after much deliberation, he decided to use the 'local experiment method'!
The so-called local experimental method is to take out the 'replaceable' parts of the 'Tianting Cave Spirit Vein Design Plan', and then select similar topography and landforms from this blessed land to conduct local experiments.
Although this method is not the best, it is already the most appropriate under the current conditions.
After deciding on a strategy, Mo Chengjun plunged into the earth again and began the experiment.
In the years that followed, Mo Chengjun's figure began to appear in various places in the blessed land.
Occasionally, he would destroy a spiritual vein and reshape it.
Sometimes, he would go straight to the sky, settle somewhere, and think carefully about the harvest.
Occasionally, the land and mountains in an area will collapse, and the mountains will turn into canyons.
Sometimes, the rushing river changes its course, twists and turns, and changes direction.
There are also intense moments when the 'rumbling' spiritual conflicts continue to intensify, and the earth ripples like water waves, shattering the original topography.
Mo Chengjun rushed up to the sky in disgrace, and had to work hard to suppress the restlessness of the world and the balance of his spiritual veins.
Sometimes, the speed of the flow of spiritual intelligence in the entire world will increase by three minutes out of thin air, and the density of spiritual intelligence around him will instantly rise to a higher level.
Needless to say, the initial stage of the experiment was extremely smooth. Mo Chengjun's experience and accumulation were there, and minor improvements were nothing.
But towards the end, Mo Chengjun became more and more courageous. He always wanted to create more spiritual veins and thus obtain more eyes of the spiritual spring;
Or it could speed up the self-division of spiritual particles, thereby increasing the spiritual density of the blessed land.
But it is these experiments that are most likely to cause problems.
Until the last time, he carefully designed a kind of spiritual vein called 'Nine-turn loop, eighteen bends', and when he wanted to increase the flow speed of the spiritual machine and the nodes of the spiritual vein at the same time, he finally got into trouble.
Yes, this is indeed a partial experiment, but there is a word called 'chain reaction'.
Strictly speaking, the failure of his experiment did not affect a wide area, but the flapping wings of a butterfly really caused a storm.
The spiritual storm in the entire blessed land even swept away the most basic spiritual cycle, so that the entire blessed land almost collapsed completely.
To be honest, when the great cycle was about to collapse, Mo Chengjun felt that his own power was so weak. If he hadn't reacted quickly enough, he had pulled 365 gods from heaven to help.
Even he may not be able to maintain his form this time.
It was also after this wave that the entire blessed land completely lost its original topography. Even the most experienced immortal cultivator from Kyushu would not be able to see the shadow of Kyushu from here.
The price paid was almost the reshaping of the entire blessed land's spiritual network, and Mo Chengjun no longer dared to mess around.
Of course, although this wave of changes is huge, in terms of results, it is still quite a lot.
For example, Mo Chengjun actually knew that as long as the spiritual circulation is formed, it will have a certain self-derivation and recovery effect.
Despite the huge changes in the current topography, they have found the most suitable artery for the flow of inspiration. Without human intervention, they are the most 'comfortable' posture.
For another example, the correction and improvement of spiritual veins is actually possible, but it is not easy. It involves too many aspects and requires extremely sophisticated design.
But just because it is too delicate, the more deliberate it is, the more likely it is to make mistakes.
In this regard, although Mo Chengjun has done a lot of experiments, he has not gained much.
However, he did sum up the necessary conditions for "spirits to reproduce themselves". Generally speaking, there are three main conditions.
The first point is that the dark energy and dark matter in the spiritual particles must reach saturation, or even be about to explode.
The spiritual particles circulate and flow between heaven and earth, consuming the energy within them almost all the time.
From the simplest being swallowed by humans, to magical powers, alchemy and talisman arrays, there are all the driving and use of spiritual particles in the air.
The result of this is that the dark matter and dark energy in the smart particles will be lost to a greater or lesser extent.
This kind of loss is difficult to replenish in the air, mainly because the competition between the spiritual particles is too intense, but it can be quickly replenished when the spiritual veins circulate.
Saturation charging is the most basic condition required for division.
As for the second condition, it is a saturated and active Eye of the Spiritual Spring.
Mo Chengjun has tried it before. In this state, the Eye of the Spiritual Spring seems to have a very unique function, which can trigger the self-division of the spiritual particles.
Then, those charged spiritual particles will become two, two will become four, four will become eight, and the number will become more and more!
But the split spiritual particles are much 'weaker' than normal spiritual particles, just like a newborn baby.
If you want to grow quickly, you must circulate in the spiritual veins and fully absorb dark matter and dark energy, so that you can grow into normal spiritual particles in the shortest time.
It has to be said that if conditions work, this growth rate can be really fast, but if the length of the spiritual vein is not enough, malnourished spiritual particles will also be produced.
Then we have to absorb dark matter and dark energy from the air bit by bit, and the speed will be very slow.
Well, Mo Chengjun's design of the 'nine loops and eighteen turns' was to increase the length of the spiritual veins as much as possible within a limited range, thereby accelerating the growth of the newly split spiritual particles.
It's a pity that his idea was good, but the result was very bad.
However, knowing these three conditions is already a success.
You know, Mo Chengjun not only has one way to charge the spirit particles, he can also create a vacuum zone without spirit particles to quickly charge them.
Supplemented by the eyes of the spiritual spring and the spiritual veins, he can accelerate the self-division of the spiritual particles.
This is definitely an excellent research direction. If it succeeds, the growth rate of Dongtian Paradise will be astonishing.
But now, it is not convenient to mess around in this blessed land, so Mo Chengjun still stopped honestly.
Of course, Mo Chengjun's biggest gain from this round of experiments was not only the perfection of the 'Heavenly Cave Spiritual Vein Design', but the birth of the spiritual mine...
Yes, it is the spiritual mine. In this blessed land, it really began to appear, and the spiritual mineral veins were also derived.
The subject of the spiritual mine, to put it bluntly, is to place the mother ore in the spiritual veins and find various ways to flush it out to see if there is any change.
In fact, this subject does not need to be placed in those 'replaceable' spiritual veins, but hundreds of already formed spiritual veins in the entire blessed land can be used.
Naturally, the options are vast.
In the early stages of the experiment, Mo Chengjun used various methods and means to use those mother ores. As for the different spiritual vein positions, the main focus was to make a blind cat meet a dead mouse.
There were no results at the beginning, but in the end, during the accident where the spiritual veins collapsed and were reshaped, Mo Chengjun discovered that many mother ores had changed.
Surrounding them, those beings that were supposed to be five-colored earth seemed to have been radiated by the mother ore and started to assimilate!
Yes, it’s assimilation.
It felt like the inspiration washed over the mother ore, taking away their structural map. Then, some of the five-color soil around the mother ore began to be infected by this structure, assimilated, and then turned into the same spiritual ore.
This discovery really opened Mo Chengjun's eyes!
The first thought that came to my mind was, actually, can it really be played like this?
Mo Chengjun hadn't figured out the reason for this for a while, especially why such a change had to occur after the spiritual veins changed. He couldn't figure it out even more.
But there is no doubt that this is a good thing, a huge good thing.
These mineral veins are still too small, and they need to be given time to grow, but it is a good thing to have results, and Mo Chengjun is not in a hurry.
Also during this process, Mo Chengjun also discovered several veins of spirit stones.
Yes, it’s the spirit stone!
In those places where spiritual veins circulate, certain structures can actually trap some of the spiritual particles to reside.
Then, when there are more and more of these spiritual particles, they combine with earth and stone to form spiritual stones.
This was hard currency, but Mo Chengjun was still not satisfied, and on a whim, he felt that he could go one step closer.
He thought about the Kong Kong Stone, the formation that could pass through the 'gold' attribute spiritual particles, and the value of a single attribute spiritual stone.
So, at this moment, an idea flashed in Mo Chengjun's mind, and he immediately arranged another experiment.
Today I sorted it out and sent over 6000+ chapters!
Also, many readers these days have reported that the Cave Heaven is higher than the Blessed Land. How can I say that? The information I checked does not seem to have a clear statement. As far as this book is concerned, the Blessed Land is set to be one level higher than the Cave Heaven.
