Chapter 192: Plans
Lin Yan’s thoughts withdrew from the Great Dream Immortal Realm.
The current Dream Realm was still far from complete. It relied entirely on Dream Derivation Immortal Gu to maintain its existence. Every month, it consumed one bead of green grape immortal essence, while the blessed land produced only a fifty four beads each year. The cost was undeniably high.
Fortunately, the rewards were more than enough to justify the expense. As long as he could obtain enough Dream Path Gu materials and Dream Path Gu worms, the immortal essence spent would be well worth it.
At present, Lin Yan possessed no Dream Path inheritances, so his demand for Dream Path resources was not high. Activating the Dream Realm for one or two months each year would be more than enough.
As the Huang Family Gu Masters left the Dream Realm one after another, shock and excitement filled their faces. The miracle they had just witnessed deepened their reverence for the Supreme Elder, making it stronger than ever.
"The Supreme Elder’s methods are truly heaven-defying. Cultivating inside the Dream Realm, where one day equals a hundred days, can even improve our aperture aptitude. We people with ordinary talent might really have a chance to become Gu Immortals!"
"I’ve read countless biographies of Immortal Venerables and Gu Immortals. Looking through history, I have never heard of anyone at the Supreme Elder’s age possessing such methods or such cultivation."
"Don’t forget that the Supreme Elder also displayed his divine might and suppressed two Mo Family Gu Immortals by himself. Even among Gu Immortals, the Supreme Elder is an extraordinary existence."
The Huang Family Gu Masters could not stop praising him. Their admiration surged like a great tide, growing stronger with every passing moment.
Lin Yan’s thoughts swept across the city and took in the entire scene. A trace of regret flashed through his mind. These emotions were all Human Path materials. If only he possessed the right methods to gather them.
Still, there was no need to rush. Now that Dream Derivation Immortal Gu had returned to his hands, he had plenty of time. His Human Path attainment was only at the quasi-Master level. By carefully studying Wisdom Path and combining the strengths of both paths, he might be able to deduce a suitable method.
It could be said that Lin Yan had squeezed every last bit of value from the Huang Family Gu Masters. Yet this was a high-level form of exploitation. Unlike Human Mountain Human Sea, which simply consumed lives for immediate gains, his method was sustainable. Those Gu Masters would only continue growing stronger, creating even greater value over time.
After all, living people were the greatest resource of all. As long as they remained alive, they could continuously create wealth.
Now that he had obtained such a large amount of Dream Path Gu materials, Lin Yan naturally wanted to refine Gu. Self Dream Gu, Dream Inspiration Gu, Make Dreams Come True Gu, and many other Dream Path Gu worms all possessed tremendous value.
Unfortunately, he simply did not have enough time. At present, he had three priorities. The first was to improve and manage the Dream Realm. The second was to develop Flame Path killer moves. The third was to deduce new Dream Path Gu worms and cultivation methods.
As for repetitive work like refining Gu, there was no need for him to do it personally. His time was far better spent creating new Dream Path Gu worms.
His gaze swept across Flame Sovereign Blessed Land. Although it still bore the scars of the previous battle, the blessed land had already recovered enough to raise Mortals and Variant Humans.
After thinking for a moment, Lin Yan made his decision. He would first introduce two Variant Human races into the blessed land. Hairy Men And Eggmen.
Among the ten Variant Human races of the Gu World, Hairy Men were the race most gifted in refining Gu. They were born with Refinement Path dao marks, making Gu refinement almost instinctive to them. However, their creativity was far inferior to that of the Human Race. While they found it difficult to create new Gu recipes, they were exceptionally good at refining existing ones, making them ideal for large-scale Gu refinement.
As for Eggmen, they were one of the strangest Variant Human races in the Gu World. They were born with Space Path dao marks and had tiny bodies with the appearance of human babies, making them look unusually cute.
However, their true value had nothing to do with their appearance. Eggmen specialized in nurturing spirit springs, and their race was divided into many branches, such as Red Eggmen, Green Eggmen, Stinky Eggmen, and many others.
The most precious among them were purebred Eggman Kings. After an Eggman King died, it would leave behind a Rank Five Spring Egg Gu. Once planted in the ground, the Gu would transform into a spirit spring capable of producing primeval stones.
A single spirit spring was enough to support the cultivation of a mortal clan for hundreds of years.
