Chapter 344: Plunder
A mist-like spirit invisible to the naked eye appeared in the huge device next to the storage device.
The main body of the device is a three-meter-high, upright metal cylinder, which from a distance looks like a single-stroke piston engine fixed in mid-air.
As a red light outside the glass cylinder lights up, the soul inside the cylinder begins to rhythmically relax and contract like a living heart.
It is this fluctuation of the soul that is transmitted to the periphery and causes resonance in other people.
Atomized liquid is constantly sprayed out from the pores inside the cylinder. The soul, which beats like a heart, relies on the combustion of this quenching liquid to refine itself at a slow speed.
In the past few years, the energy absorbed by the soul through the psychic network system alone has been equivalent to nearly four months of electricity consumption by more than one billion people in the entire Huaya Federation. This huge amount of energy is comparable to the daily consumption of Together with the spiritual materials, they all became the material for the growth of his soul.
According to Bai Mo's estimation, if it were not for such means and relying solely on his personal accumulation, it would have taken at least fifty to seventy years to reach the current level.
But compared to the Hua Ning Realm, which has a lifespan of nearly a thousand years, it takes decades to accumulate to a perfect level. It is nothing.
"The power gained bit by bit through hard work will definitely be much easier to control than a person like me who uses the power of the whole country to make tricks."
He even had the conjecture that if it really took a long time to accumulate, he probably wouldn't need the purification step of refining the gods now.
"But it's too slow."
Being able to gain the strength that should have been practiced for decades in a few years, the extra trouble is nothing.
Because if he really spends decades in the Condensation Realm, the advantage he had finally built up in the past will no longer exist.
Once multiple successors catch up, he is likely to become the target of public criticism for his disregard for human life. No matter which force, Bai Mo, who is completely unscrupulous in his actions, is a super dangerous and unstable factor.
In order to achieve their own goals, they casually sacrificed more than a million people to create a monster that could destroy all mankind. This kind of thing has frightened them.
It is too dangerous to place the safety of mankind on the ideas of such people.
"To reach five thousand thoughts, it would take twenty years without golden apples."
After various non-destructive experiments, Bai Mo came to the conclusion that the golden apple in his hand, which contained most of the essence of the super life form of fireworks, could greatly expand his thinking and allow him to reach the level of ten thousand thoughts, which is equivalent to Tens of thousands of times the thinking of ordinary people.
However, the cost of doing so is also very high. The sudden expansion of thinking ability by more than ten times is just like the ordinary people in the movie who took some kind of brain-developed drugs. They may become crazy or even die directly due to physical overdraft.
The existence of the self-proclaimed Gaia, the so-called trump card that Bai Mo is really worried about is Bai Mo's choice to eat the golden apple at any cost, and then after meeting the requirements of elemental thinking, he begins to elementalize his body and enters a new level.
Without using the golden apple in his hand, he estimated that it would take at least twenty years before he, who was now close to the level of Thousand Thoughts, could open up a path to cultivate to Five Thousand Thoughts. The further back you go, the more time it takes increases exponentially.
"After completing the matter of the soul, we must also start studying how to slowly release the effects of the golden apple."
He had planned for several years and spent countless hours to obtain the golden apple. Of course, he would not let it become a decoration that could only be seen but not used.
"But the first priority now is to complete the work of refining the gods, so that I can truly grasp every ounce of power in my hand." Before the soul has reached its optimal state, he decided to put the development and utilization of the golden apple behind. .
Bai Mo didn't have an urgent need to continue to make breakthroughs. In the past ten years, he relied on the contribution point system, the psychic network system, and the virtual reality system, which were designed by him personally and were almost like golden fingers. , he accumulated unparalleled advantages step by step.
The initial contribution point system provided him with astronomical resources, as well as a large number of skills from other people, completing the first step.
As for the psychic energy network system and the Heaven and Man Unity Tower on it, it not only greatly shortens the time for soul accumulation, but also optimizes the operation of its own power.
Finally, the secret door of the virtual reality system allows Bai Mo to peek into the memories of everyone participating in the combat strength assessment, and use the massive resources under his control to test one by one and even realize the ideas that most people can only live in their heads. . At the same time, the advent of thoughts in the Endless Continent game also provided a powerful boost to the sharpening of his spiritual will.
Taken together, this is the real reason why Bai Mo, who has only superior qualifications and is still far away from being a peerless genius, is able to stand out from the crowd.
He uses the spiritual wealth and material wealth of hundreds of millions of people to support himself. In this regard, he is essentially the same as Ramdo who follows the Shinto and gathers the power of all living beings to become stronger.
The real reason why Ramdo was defeated was that the One-cycle Sect only had a population of 100 million, while the Huaya Federation had more than 1.5 billion people. The difference in size between the two was an order of magnitude.
Every fifth-level master in a high position is actually more or less an exploiter. Through their power and strength, they obtain an astonishing amount of cultivation materials and suppress others to catch up with them in disguise.
Shinto tends to plunder spiritual wealth, while other paths tend to plunder material wealth, but Bai Mo has done it more thoroughly, directly attacking both sides.
After all, this is a cruel society. Rather than working hard to develop themselves, the giants actually prefer to rob emerging creators in various ways.
Just like some huge groups, by copying successful entrepreneurial models and then using their abundant resources to acquire or squeeze out the original creators, they can develop new businesses while also ensuring their leading position.
The cost of starting a business is almost entirely passed on to other people, because the projects copied by the giants have been initially tested by the market and are truly profitable projects.
Times are changing, but people's hearts remain the same. The trustification of enterprises is actually not much different from the eternal class that emerged in the Reiki era. The strong take all.
"He just sent a message. Nothing happened." Chen Xi, who was not sure why, decided to walk outside the test site first after seeing the reply message on his phone.
The feeling of her heart being driven to a rhythm was quite uncomfortable. She was worried that if the fluctuations in the ground suddenly stopped, her heart would also stop beating.
"We are both at the fourth level anyway, why is the difference so big..." Chen Xi took Hua Qing's hand and walked all the way to a place nearly 20 kilometers away from the center of the test site. Only then did he no longer feel like his heart was being grabbed. The feeling of breathing being compressed.
ps: I recommend a book, "I Have a Potted Flower in the End of the World", which uses the background of the end of the world to write a story about transformation, but I don't know whether the author wants to transform and marry someone or transform into Lily 666
