Chapter 264: Cultivation, Uninvited Guests
"Splash!"
Tang Song sat on a bamboo chair, watching the fishing float on the Lake Surface bob up and down a few times before suddenly plunging into the Lake Surface. He raised his hand and lifted the purple bamboo fishing rod he held.
As the heavy object in the water struggled continuously, the simple purple bamboo fishing rod in Tang Song's hand was almost bent into a bow shape.
However, Boss Tang's fishing rod only looked simple. From the selection of materials for the fishing rod to the fishing line, it had undergone testing by at least a dozen people over dozens of rounds.
That seemingly unremarkable purple bamboo alone was selected from over a thousand bamboo stalks, chosen as the one that best fit ergonomics and was most convenient for Boss Tang to use, referencing his height and weight.
The fishing line looked ordinary, but it was actually webbing from a variant spider, the same type of webbing used in Spider-Man's web-shooter. A thin fishing line could easily handle pulling a Great White Shark.
As for the fishing hook, it was an Adamantium alloy fishing hook. Breaking or straightening the hook? Impossible.
Tang Song lifted the purple bamboo fishing rod and brought the trout, weighing seven or eight pounds, in front of him. He removed the fishing hook from its mouth and placed it in the keepnet in the Lake.
Wanda and Skye had flown to Italy to attend the spring Milan Fashion Week, taking Big Cat with them. With one less person to remove fish and bait hooks, Boss Tang had to do it himself.
Thump! After attaching bait to the fishing hook, Tang Song raised his hand and cast the fishing hook out. The fishing sinker hit the Water Surface, making a 'ding-dong' sound as it entered the water.
If one were to monitor from Outer Space using special energy analysis instruments, they could clearly see that the building layout of Raccoon City, covering hundreds of thousands of mu, from the mountains and rivers, Lakes and Manors, houses and buildings, down to a single greenery or flowers and grass by the Roadside, all followed a specific arrangement pattern.
This patterned building complex was like a giant energy converter, converting solar energy into a type of golden energy that science currently couldn't analyze and ordinary people couldn't see.
The Lake Surface before Tang Song seemed to transform into a boundless golden ocean. Continuous Essence of Sunlight Qi gathered from the Great Sun in The Void onto this Lake Surface. Although Tang Song appeared to be fishing, above his head, a black and white Qi flow, invisible to ordinary people, soared over a hundred meters high, transforming into a Yin-Yang Taiji Diagram. The Essence of Sunlight Qi, tempered by the Lake Surface Great Array, turned into strands of golden liquid and flowed into the Yin-Yang Taiji Diagram.
This Essence of Sunlight Qi, containing gamma ray and various other energy matter, after being filtered a second time by the Yin-Yang Taiji Diagram, became the most primordial energy molecules! The massive amount of Essence of Sunlight Qi, like a hundred rivers flowing into the sea, finally converged into a vast ocean, and following the spiritual light above Tang Song's head, rushed into his Taiji Golden Core.
Tang Song's Taiji Golden Core inside the body madly expanded and contracted, contracted and expanded. With each expansion and contraction, a surge of pure Dharma Power rushed inside his body, tempering his physical body and improving it towards the Diamond Indestructible level. Of course, most of the energy was still absorbed by the Yin and Yang colored Taiji Golden Core.
Inside the Taiji Golden Core, which rotated slowly like a Yin-Yang Fish, a tiny, miniature version of Tang Song, maintaining the Five Hearts Facing Heaven posture and forming a hand seal, was gradually taking shape.
Core Crushing for Nascent Soul,
With the boost from massive amounts of resources, Tang Song only took a few years to reach a realm that ordinary Cultivators in the Jambudvīpa World would take hundreds of years to achieve.
Dao Cultivation Method also has its principles; the most crucial thing is resources.
Take the Jambudvīpa World, for example. The Primeval Era was the most unrestricted time.
Primordial Qi was everywhere in Heaven and Earth, and the quality of that Primordial Qi was comparable to jade fluid and ambrosia!
People back then didn't need to cultivate; they just needed to open their mouths, and the Primordial Qi of Heaven and Earth would forcefully pour into their bodies. They could increase their realm even while sleeping! Many innate divine beings were Pure Yang True Immortals or Golden Immortals of Creation upon birth.
By the Xia and Shang Dynasties, only about as much of the Primordial Qi of Heaven and Earth as the Ocean remained. Although still a lot, it was no longer immeasurable.
By the time Tang Song transmigrated, the Primordial Qi in the world was no longer everywhere but had contracted into several major veins, hence the concept of Blessed Land and Cave Heaven.
Therefore, when it comes to Cultivation, regardless of the world or system, resources are the most important. From the start, Tang Song set up the Lunar Form Refining Array in the Nightclub he operated. The place was small, and he only used some light gathering panels as materials.
Later, his influence further expanded, transitioning to setting up the Lunar Spirit Gathering Array in the Manor, and now, setting up a complete Sun-Moon Body Cleansing Spirit Gathering Array in a Small Town covering hundreds of thousands of mu, gathering massive amounts of Essence of Sun and Moon Qi to assist his Cultivation.
Now, just absorbing a single breath of Essence of Sun and Moon Qi is equivalent to the effect of a month of Cultivation in the past.
His resources are not only beyond the reach of ordinary Rogue Cultivators in the Jambudvīpa World, but even True Disciples of some Ancient Inheritance Sects may not even have this kind of treatment.
Not to mention, at Heimdall's location, a Formation set up with a world as its foundation is currently under construction, with a Mining Area and Base being built, combined with the continuously ascending Artificial Suns.
Hundreds and thousands of bat-like Demon Bats were 'fleeing' in front of Heimdall. Many Demon Bats were flapping their wings randomly, their bodies drawing twisted arcs in the Void Space. Behind them, over a dozen golden-shining, most advanced Nova Empire warships were running their engines at full speed, chasing them.
The radiance of hundreds of Artificial Suns illuminated an area of several thousand kilometers. In the darkness, from time to time, Artificial Suns like Kongming Lanterns slowly ascended into the sky. Before long, the Artificial Suns twinkled, and from time to time, some aircraft ascended, suspending the Artificial Suns according to their predetermined positions.
Armed Robots one after another left blue plasma flames in the air. They were responsible for patrol, hunting down any escaped beasts, and protecting the safety of the Miners below.
On the Ground, mining convoys with a carrying capacity of hundreds of tons were as dense as a long dragon. The extracted ore would be transported to the rear, where there were specialized factories for metallurgy and forging.
There were both weapons and starship manufacturing from technology assembly lines, and also groups of Dwarf Masters who were "hired" to perform the forging of Magic Weapons.
"What the fuck, where is this? We seem to have left Earth!"
Rocket Raccoon and Thor, who had originally tracked the locator on Star-Lord, sneaked into a space gate with the help of the invisibility cloak, following a group of white-clothed Research Personnel, were a bit confused.
"Uh, this place, this place seems to be Heimdall!?"
Thor took a swig of pure Asgardian fine wine, looked around, and said somewhat uncertainly.
Was he seeing things? Looking at this bright and cool "Dark Lands," was this really the Underworld from his memory?
"Don't worry about that for now. Since Star-Lord's locator is in the hands of this group, he himself might be here. But where do we start looking?"
Rocket Raccoon looked at the surging crowd before him, a bit at a loss.
(Sorry, everyone, I couldn't keep anything down and was throwing up all day. I really couldn't hold on any longer. I took some medicine and need to sleep now.)
