He felt that the electromagnetic environnt here was sufficient for him to unleash a part of his power now. The strike from the Heavenly Sword had permanently altered the ley lines of the Divine Capital, and the model for the circulation of spiritual power had to be recalculated. However, these were minor issues. Feng Luoyi looked around; Zhuang Xuelin, a Primordial Spirit Cultivator who originally guarded the Divine Capital, was sitting absentmindedly on a stone bench, while Wang Qi and four others leaned against a corner wall, drowsy. Ai Qinglan was drained and injured; though Wang Qi was not much injured, the massive data processing had left him fundantally exhausted. Chen Feng and Youjia, although not having gone through successive great battles like the other two, were also significantly shaken in the end.
Nevertheless, the four low-level cultivators caught in the central vortex of this incident were now huddled together for warmth.
When Zhuang Xuelin saw Feng Luoyi, he first shrank his head in awe, then his face turned excited as he questioned, "Why did you use the Heavenly Sword just now? Have you forgotten? There are still hundreds of thousands of civilians in the Divine Capital!"
Feng Luoyi nodded, "I know, so they were evacuated beforehand. To my knowledge, no mortals were killed by the strike of the Heavenly Sword."
"Yes, that's a miracle. But how could you take such a risk?" Zhuang Xuelin remained unconvinced, "And the livelihood of these hundred thousand people..."
"Was destroyed, I know." Feng Luoyi nodded, "The Immortal Alliance will repay them. Moreover, they will compensate them with better things."
Their argunt woke up Wang Qi and the other four. Amidst their astonished gazes, Feng Luoyi waved his hands and created nine translucent orbs the size of a hug each in the air. These were nine temporal gates ford by the Taiyu skill. Hundreds of cultivators erged from this temporary spatial gate. Their leaders were at the Primordial Spirit Stage, and the rest were all at Golden Core Perfection. However, their cultivation techniques were mostly of mixed and inferior quality, unlike the core cultivation thods practiced by Wang Qi's group from the Modern Immortal Path.
"In the coming days, it will be hard on you all," Feng Luoyi said to the group of cultivators floating in mid-air. "I ntioned to you a few days ago, this is one of the largest empirical tests of the Immortal Alliance, vital for the lifeline of the Human Clan and the direction of the Human Dao. However, no one can guarantee that this empirical test will not negatively impact your Immortal Path. For this, I can only represent the Immortal Alliance to express our gratitude."
Amidst the crowd, so spoke, "Senior Feng, you're being too serious." "We made our ntal preparations three days ago; True Lord Feng doesn't need to ask us anymore if we want to back out!" "We low-level cultivators getting a thank you from the Immortal Alliance, what more can we ask for?"
"You all are heroes of the Human Clan and the Immortal Alliance." Feng Luoyi bent down and bowed deeply, full of heartfelt gratitude.
Feng Luoyi was not suited for giving such rousing speeches. He was neither adept at understanding people's hearts nor at stirring their emotions. However, being one of the strongest Carefree Practitioners in the Immortal Alliance and a high official in the Modern Immortal Path, his bow was profoundly impactful.
At least, it shocked Zhuang Xuelin and Wang Qi.
"These people, who are they?" Wang Qi whispered to his partners, "What significant empirical test requires their participation?"
"I don't know. Judging from their cultivation techniques, they obviously don't belong to the sa domain," Chen Feng answered.
Ai Qinglan pointed at a cultivator amidst the crowd who was short and looked like an old farr, "I only recognize him, Grandmaster Nongyuan, the steward of the agricultural division of the outer disciples at Tianling Ridge."
"Over there, Big Food Sect, Lieri Loose Cultivator. I rember his superb pancakes," Youjia swallowed hard, looking to another side, "Heavenly Clothes Sect, Sect Leader, Grandmaster Zhang Yixuan. And over there, Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion..."
Chen Feng suddenly slapped his forehead, "I rember now, that woman over there, isn't she Immortal Kongyuan, the Sect Master of Joyful Union Sect?"
Chen Feng referred to a demure-looking, petite female cultivator at the edge of the crowd at the Primordial Spirit Stage. His words drew everyone's attentions sidelong. Ai Qinglan's gaze was unfriendly, "Xiao Feng, you're being naughty. Care to explain?"
"Immortal Kongyuan is very famous in Shenzhou. It's just that Sister Lan is always imrsed in the Empirical Departnt, so you wouldn't know."
Chen Feng answered very quickly, but Wang Qi did not hesitate to betray him: "Senior Sister Ai, Chen Feng's calculator in the Spirit Sense Zone, the dossier on animal behavior studies, contains suspicious Path Ranks. For your happiness, I strongly suggest you run it, no need to thank ..."
"Is that so?" Ai Qinglan hugged Chen Feng, her smile containing a hint of threat: "It seems you need a lesson, Xiao Feng."
Wang Qi was snickering, but then he felt a small hand touch his waist. Chen Youjia spoke in a displeased tone, "How did you know?"
"I've overloaded that calculator many tis," Wang Qi changed the topic, "But speaking of which, what use are these people?"
On another side, Zhuang Xuelin was also listing: "The Agricultural Departnt under Tianling Ridge, Civil Engineering Castle at Mountain River City, external institution Three Rivers Building of Thousand chanism Pavilion, steward of the Burning Gold Valley Outer Disciple, and Heavenly Clothes Sect, Big Food Sect, Ghost Engineering Sect, Flower Between Sect, Joyful Union Sect, Quliang Academy, Jingfeng Sect..."
These guys were either the outer disciples of great sects or low-tier, miscellaneous sects, and so were simply craftsn, including those who followed the converted Confucianism and Holy Sect!
What kind of empirical evidence were these disorderly characters going to gather?
Feng Luoyi gently raised her hand. Above everyone's heads, a cluster of pink, white, and blue lights mingled together. Countless strands of light cascaded, entering the bodies of those present.
Feng Luoyi had actually used the Heart Demon Curse to corrupt all these people!
"This situation has never occurred in the billions of years of Shenzhou history. Here, an entire city, hundreds of thousands of mortals have obtained mana. Those who had never co in contact with mana do not know how to use their power, nor understand the rules of the Immortal Dao. Moreover, they were not cultivators seeking longevity, but rely mortals who accidentally gained mana. The rules of the Immortal Dao may not suit them."
"The more serious issue is that their mana stems from a spontaneously erged spell, extrely infectious. If not controlled, it will soon spread throughout all of Shenzhou, providing all mortals with the most basic mana. When that happens, the old system that has operated for thousands of years in the mortal world will beco void. Unfortunately, a crazed banished immortal has already spread it. It's too late to undo, and the Human Dao now faces a major crisis."
"For the mont, the only solution is to completely seal off Divine Capital until we find a solution within Divine Capital. Your task is to find a system on a technical level that allows these mortals with a slight amount of mana to realize their own significance."
"Your technology, together with the local technology of Tianling Ridge Outer Disciple, encompasses everything required for mortal livelihoods. Clothing, food, housing, travel, even dical consultations, scholarly inquiry, and cultural matters. You must use your thods to impart this technology to those mortals, letting them beco part of your production, turning difficulties into opportunities!"
"The entire resources of the Immortal Alliance will lean toward you. If there are any problems, you can ask any Nirvana Grandmaster or even the Carefree Practitioners through the Ten Thousand Immortals Illusion Realm; all your problems will be resolved."
"However, I must reiterate that during this experintal period, you must not contact your friends or family in any form..."
As Feng Luoyi continued to speak, Wang Qi had already realized his aning.
This was a pilot before comprehensive reform—the "Special Economic Zone" on the Shenzhou Land.
The ancient gathering place, City of Divine Capital, no longer existed, replaced by the starting point for transformation in Human Dao—the Divine Capital Special Zone! (To be continued.
