Hearing Li Zhouji's question, Zheng Dong did not give a direct answer, but asked instead: "Do you think that among the ancient players, there are many who can truly embark on the path of spiritual practice?"
Hearing this, Li Zhouji frowned and then said: "Not much."
Zheng Dong nodded: "In the ancient times, it was impossible for players with poor qualifications, players with insufficient perseverance, and players who were afraid of hardships to embark on the path of cultivation.
There are now tens of millions of players in the prehistoric era, and the three types of players I mentioned account for at least more than 90% of the total. In other words, there are only hundreds of thousands of people who really have hope of embarking on the path of spiritual practice.
These people are the ones who really care about cultivation resources."
After thinking about it, Li Zhouji nodded in agreement.
For most ordinary players, the training period is their highest achievement.
Lingshi and other cultivation resources are of little significance to them.
Seeing Li Zhouji nod, Zheng Dong continued: "The remaining hundreds of thousands of people can be divided into those who lack resources and those who have sufficient resources to practice.
Most of the Qi Refining monks in China belong to the latter group. Most of them are disciples of the Danxia Sect. Although their cultivation resources are not abundant, they are enough to use. Especially after the second expansion of the Great Desolate World, there are about tens of thousands of such players.
"
After a pause, he continued: "So, the focus of the conflict is actually within the first category of hundreds of thousands of people."
Li Zhouji nodded and said, "Brother Dong, you are right."
He very much agrees with Zheng Dong's point of view.
Zheng Dong smiled: "Actually, among these hundreds of thousands of people, there are Chinese monks and foreign monks. Why didn't the Chinese monks make trouble? Do they really have enough resources?"
Li Zhouji frowned at first, and then suddenly realized: "You mean Penglai Island?"
"That's right." Zheng Dong looked out the window, "It's Penglai Island. Although Penglai Island now has a permanent population of less than 100,000, it has solved one of the biggest problems for real monks, aura!
However, foreign players not only lack resources, but in reality they don’t even have spiritual energy, the basic condition for cultivation, which is also the fundamental reason why the Dark Council snatches spiritual stones."
"Yes." Li Zhouji nodded.
"What if foreign players also have the same cultivation environment as Penglai Island?"
"How is this possible?"
"How is it impossible?"
Zheng Dong looked directly into Li Zhouji's eyes.
"In order to maintain a spiritual energy environment of less than fifteen square kilometers on Penglai Island, it needs to consume at least tens of thousands of spiritual stones every year. If we build such an environment again, how many spiritual stones will we need to consume?"
Hearing this, Zheng Dong smiled and said: "It's not necessary to build another one, but it is possible to expand it. The spiritual mines in Qiyun Mountains have hundreds of millions of spiritual stones. Even after expansion, it will be enough to be used for hundreds of years.
.”
"But...these spiritual stones are all from you, Brother Dong..."
Zheng Dong glanced at him, took a sip of tea and said slowly: "These spiritual stones on the left and right are of no use to me."
After hearing this, Li Zhouji stood up in awe, cupped his hands and said, "Brother Dong is righteous!"
Hearing this, Zheng Dong almost choked on the tea he just drank.
"It's a small matter."
He is calm and calm.
Zheng Dong's solution is actually to let foreign players join the Extraordinary Association system so that they can also have the benefits of the Extraordinary Association.
In fact, from Zheng Dong's perspective, regardless of his nationality and identity, there is no essential difference between foreign players and domestic players for him.
They are all targets for him to harvest divine power. Naturally, he cannot support one party and suppress the other. Peaceful coexistence is what he wants.
Now there is a good opportunity to incorporate foreign players into the Extraordinary Association system, making the Extraordinary Association a truly global organization.
As a result, it is imperative to expand Penglai Island.
As for the spiritual stones provided every year, not to mention the small Penglai Island, all the resources in the entire prehistoric world were provided by Zheng Dong.
Besides, the spiritual stone resource is probably the resource that Zheng Dong is most in short of now.
In another world, spiritual stones are very cheap.
How cheap is it?
In Andaya Province, there are a total of forty-three known large spiritual mines, hundreds of medium-sized spiritual mines, and countless small spiritual mines.
There are truly countless of them. The Administrative Office of Light of Andaya has not even counted the specific number of small spiritual mines.
This is the extent of the proliferation of spiritual stone resources in the Knight Continent today.
The reason why there are so many spirit stone veins is because spirit stones are useless to today's ruling class knights.
Even during the Magic Empire, the utilization rate of spiritual stones by spellcasters was not high.
These spiritual stones are the accumulation of countless years in other worlds.
Especially after the demise of the Magic Empire, the concentration of alien spiritual energy increased sharply, and more small and medium-sized spiritual mines were born.
...
On the prehistoric forum.
Not long after the Dark Council invaded Penglai Island, an invitation letter to various extraordinary organizations around the world was pinned to the top.
This invitation letter is not intended for any extraordinary organization, but is issued by the Extraordinary Association to all extraordinary organizations around the world.
In China, although the Extraordinary Association is the only one, there are many other extraordinary organizations.
These extraordinary organizations are said to be organizations, but in fact, most of them are just monks who have good relationships in the ancient times. However, with the terrifying strength of the Qi Refining monks, the influence they have when they stick together is not small.
This is the country of China where Qi refining monks are more common.
In foreign countries, extraordinary organizations with several Qi Refining monks are generally called large extraordinary organizations.
Like the Dark Council, a super-large extraordinary organization with over a hundred Qi-refining monks, is alone overseas, has no semicolon, and is extremely powerful.
It is no exaggeration to say that abroad, the status of the Dark Parliament is equivalent to China's Extraordinary Association.
Without this strength, they would not dare to attack Penglai Island.
...
Sakura Country.
In a peaceful manor.
Zhao Feng was sitting on a chair, holding a gold-plated invitation letter in his hand.
Even now, he is still not used to the way the islanders sit on their knees.
As he opened the invitation letter, Zhao Feng said with a smile: "This kid Li Zhouji still likes to make such twists and turns. If you can't just make a phone call, why should you send an invitation letter?"
Shaking his head, he quickly glanced at the contents of the invitation.
The content of the invitation letter is exactly the same as the invitation letter pinned to the top of the prehistoric forum.
The general content is to sincerely invite all prehistoric players to go to Penglai Island to discuss the expansion of Penglai Island.
After Zhao Feng read the invitation, his originally indifferent expression turned serious.
Expanding Penglai Island?
This is no small matter.
Although Penglai Island is just an artificial island, it is the only island with spiritual energy for mankind, which is of great significance.
Expanding it means that the spirit gathering formation on the island needs to be increased, and the consumption of spirit stones will also increase. This is not a small amount.
"This kid Li Zhouji, does he have a convulsion in his head?"
Zhao Feng muttered.
...
United States.
Free Alliance.
As a semi-official paranormal organization of the United States, the Freedom Alliance not only enjoys direct funding from Congress, but is also supported by countless financial groups.
In the United States, the Freedom Alliance is rising at a terrifying speed.
In a small conference room, seventeen people were sitting, having a meeting.
These seventeen people are all in the Qi refining period.
The white man at the head put down the invitation in his hand, raised his head and looked at the crowd, and said slowly: "What do you think of the invitation from the Extraordinary Association?"
"The Dark Parliament attacked Penglai Island. Although it was suppressed by the Extraordinary Association, Penglai Island must have also been severely damaged. They said they were expanding Penglai Island this time. I think their purpose is to kill the chicken to scare the monkeys."
The leading white leader nodded: "I don't rule out this possibility, but what I'm more interested in is whether the so-called expansion of Penglai Island is true. If it is true, can our Freedom Alliance obtain a certain quota of residents on the island.
"
"That's right, our Free Alliance now has over a hundred late-stage body-forging monks, but due to the lack of spiritual energy supply, even if we have the Spirit-Enlightening Pill, we don't dare to break through the Qi-refining stage!"
In reality, since there is no spiritual energy, the body training period breaks through the Qi refining period. In addition to the spiritual pill, there must also be spiritual stones, both of which are indispensable.
Although the United States and Japan are the strongest on the surface, they are no different from other small countries on Earth and lack extraordinary resources such as spiritual stones.
