Chapter 286: Gravity Bracelet: Losing Temper at the God-Level Meeting

The eight conventional types of elemental materials are no longer obstacles restricting Jerry's development.

However, these are all external objects; the key is still one's own Cultivation.

Since the method for Cultivation beyond the God level cannot be obtained from the World Consciousness, it must be developed personally.

Developing a path for Cultivation starts with three aspects: soul power (Divine Power), Spirit Power (Divine Sense), and Body Strength (God Body).

First, develop the techniques for these three aspects, then develop skills; prioritize self-improvement first.

Soul power is nothing more than the absorption of energy; previously, the God Body was already saturated.

In an Energy-like State, every cell in the God Body can store energy; it is no longer limited to the dantian.

But since each cell has a limited capacity for storing energy, Jerry thought of increasing the concentration of the energy to improve.

By compressing the energy, the same amount of energy has higher purity after improvement, which relatively speaking makes skills more powerful when released and provides longer endurance.

Relying solely on self-compression, Jerry controlled one cell of the God Body to attempt it, but the result was that it was very difficult to compress.

Suddenly, Jerry thought of a problem: this World Advancement is different from the first one; this time, gravity has increased.

Living under high-multiple gravity, Body Strength will gradually become stronger, the capacity to contain soul power will become greater, and the soul power concentration will also increase; this is actually a disguised form of compressing soul power.

Jerry knew the benefits of this gravity before; in the past, rapid improvement was only possible under the combined effects of the Gravity Array and Spirit Gathering Array set up by Jerry, supplemented by sufficient food.

Now, the world's gravity will slowly increase to one hundred times, and the soul power concentration in the air has also increased to one hundred times, which is equivalent to naturally adding a Gravity Array and a Spirit Gathering Array to all species on the continent.

The core of the Gravity Array is based on the world's gravity; as the world's gravity increases, the gravity within the Gravity Array also increases. Now, a one-hundred-fold Gravity Array is no longer comparable to what it was before.

Once the world's gravity stabilizes at one hundred times, whether it is the Gravity Field of the Spirit Hall or the Gravity Mountain inside the Star Dou Great Forest, the maximum multiplier of one hundred times is equivalent to ten thousand times in the past.

Under ten thousand times gravity, Body Strength can definitely be further improved, as can the energy contained within the body.

Previously, the maximum multiplier of the Gravity Array was not one hundred times gravity, but one thousand times.

For Jerry, one thousand times gravity is no different from one hundred times.

Once the world's gravity stabilizes at one hundred times, the maximum publicly available will reach ten thousand times, while Jerry can privately achieve one hundred thousand times.

If one can adapt to one hundred thousand times gravity, the effect can be imagined.

However, it will take a long time for the world's gravity to stabilize at one hundred times.

Once the world's gravity reaches two times, the effect of Jerry's one-thousand-fold Gravity Array can reach two thousand times—a full one-thousand-fold increase in gravity compared to the original—and the body should see some improvement.

Of course, Jerry is not just improving himself; he will also help everyone improve together.

Subsequently, Jerry arrived at the Spirit Hall and summoned all the God-level powerhouses.

Qian Daoliu, Poseidon, Bibi Dong, and Hu Liena.

The Cabinet Twelve Elders, Jerry's sect, and the Ghost Douluo.

A total of twenty-five God-level powerhouses were all present.

Jerry informed everyone about the issue of the world's gravity.

However, it is impossible for everyone to stay under a Gravity Array at all times, so Jerry created a Gravity Bracelet with a gravity range of one hundred to one thousand times.

Since they are all his own people, Jerry felt there was no need to hide anything, so he distributed the bracelets, which can be adjusted to a maximum of one thousand times gravity, directly to everyone.

The Spirit Gathering Array has too many requirements; if made into small objects, the effects are not ideal, so Jerry did not make small objects.

If they need to use a Spirit Gathering Array, they can just return to their own residences.

As for food, let everyone eat more high-energy items.

If one does not eat food, the improvement effect will be slower; one should still try to eat some food.

In fact, many Spirit Masters stop eating food after reaching the Spirit Douluo level.

Because no matter what kind of food it is, it cannot be completely digested after being eaten, and the undigested part will be excreted from the body.

Many people find this process troublesome and stop eating, or intentionally or unintentionally reduce their food intake.

Although the state of Inedia reduces a lot of trouble, over time, a lot of humanity is lost.

Therefore, no matter what level of Cultivation he reaches, Jerry will always eat food.

And Jerry's development of gourmet food also has this reason.

To encourage everyone to eat, he announced a series of benefits of eating.

Whether others listen to this suggestion or not, Jerry cannot control, but all departments of the Spirit Hall must strictly require eating at least two meals a day.

After receiving the Gravity Bracelet, even if only one hundred times is activated, under the growth of the world's gravity, one will obtain very good Cultivation results.

Jerry suggested that everyone should turn it up to the highest multiple they can handle, as this will be of great help to subsequent Cultivation.

Moreover, Jerry also explained his deductions regarding the direction of Cultivation after the God level.

After hearing Jerry's suggestion, everyone began to study their own Gravity Bracelets.

Starting at one hundred times, Xiao Wu, Ye Lingling, Ning Rongrong, Xue Ke, and Hu Liena were already struggling a bit.

Having already broken through to the God level, they cannot even handle one hundred times gravity; it seems they have been slacking off a lot in their usual Cultivation.

What surprised Jerry a little was that the Cabinet Twelve Elders could all withstand one hundred times gravity.

The first six Great Elders were previously offerings of the Elder Hall and had been Title Douluo for a long time; Jerry was not surprised that they could withstand one hundred times gravity.

But the latter six Elders were promoted by him personally and have many things to do every day, so they have very little time for Cultivation.

And Jerry felt that their Cultivation had always been improved under high-concentration Spirit Gathering Arrays, with very little actual exercise, so they should not have been able to withstand one hundred times gravity; he did not expect them to withstand it after all.

Only the Twelfth Elder, Gong Ya, had a lower tolerance, barely able to withstand one hundred and ten times gravity.

Being buried in the laboratory every day, she could still withstand one hundred and ten times gravity, which is why Jerry felt so surprised.

As for the Seventh Elder to the Eleventh Elder, Jerry looked at them with a suspicious gaze.

Jerry thought they had many things to do and that soul power Cultivation had already taken up a lot of time; it seems they must have carved out time to exercise under gravity.

Seventh Elder Yu Shu saw Jerry's surprised expression and spoke directly: "What's wrong? Does it surprise you that I can withstand one hundred times gravity? Why don't you try being the Minister of the Education Department for a year?"

"If it weren't for the fact that my soul power Cultivation improved later and my Body Strength increased, I really wouldn't have been able to hold on."

"Development is too fast; manpower cannot keep up with the speed of development at all. Many things require personal attention, and I am exhausted every day—not just physically, but mentally as well."

"Furthermore, people from other departments come running to poach our staff as soon as graduation season arrives; they have no sense of martial virtue at all."

"My Education Department doesn't even have enough people, yet they still come to poach them. Lord Jerry, you have to do something about them."

"Only when my Education Department has enough people can we cultivate more talent. They are constantly poaching people now, which is severely delaying the development of the Education Department."

Seventh Elder Yu Shu poured out the dissatisfaction she had been suppressing in her heart for these years in one breath.

After finishing, Seventh Elder Yu Shu felt much better. The elders of other departments were not acting like humans, poaching people every day, and she had no way to deal with it. Jerry was often away, and the Great Elder would always push things off or stall, so in the end, she could only bear it silently.

Now that Jerry had just given her an opportunity to speak out, she didn't want to look at anyone else's face anymore and started complaining directly.

After listening, Jerry shouted, "What the hell!"

They had actually gone as far as poaching people.

Jerry had said more than once that education was the foundation, and no matter how other departments were doing, priority must be given to the cause of education.

Now they had actually gone and poached people from the Education Department; this was truly turning the world upside down.

Jerry suddenly felt a surge of anger welling up in his heart.

He looked coldly at the elders of the other departments.

Except for Twelfth Elder Gong Ya, all the other elders lowered their heads.

One could tell at a glance who had engaged in poaching.

Twelfth Elder Gong Ya did not need to poach people; the top-tier talent was all working under her. Those not in the Research Department, according to Gong Ya's classification of talent, could at most be considered excellent talent.

As for excellent talent, Gong Ya did not care much. If she wanted them, a single assessment order would bring people breaking their heads to take the test.

The Research Department was now a holy land in the heart of every student. Being able to enter the Research Department meant that you had reached the very pinnacle of a certain major and were a leading figure in that field.

Excellent talent is only relatively excellent in certain aspects, but cannot reach the pinnacle of that major.

Top-tier talent, any one of them, is a pinnacle figure in a certain major.

And the Research Department only needed the most top-tier talent.

Therefore, only Gong Ya did not need to go poaching.

Jerry was very angry now. Qian Daoliu and the others also realized the seriousness of the matter at this time and stood by, watching in silence.

Elder Jin'e looked at Qian Daoliu with a pleading gaze, but Qian Daoliu turned his head directly to look at Poseidon, completely ignoring Elder Jin'e's gaze.

Tenth Elder You Yi, the Minister of the Logistics Department, had a relatively better relationship with Jerry. Seeing that everyone was silent, she spoke up.

"Lord Jerry, although the methods of poaching are not honorable, we are truly at our wits' end."

"Not to mention this World Advancement, even in normal times, our Logistics Department is always short-handed, and everyone is in a state of high-pressure work every day."

"If we cultivate our own people, not only is the cycle long, but these people have limited acceptance capabilities and are not as quick to get started as those who come out of the academy."

"These students have already accepted many new things in the academy, so their adaptability is naturally very strong."

"Recruiting people from outside not only requires teaching them every skill, but they also have poor acceptance and take too long to learn."

"Wuhun City has always been in a state of high-speed development, and these people simply cannot adapt to the current work in a short time."

"It is not just the Logistics Department in this situation; other departments are the same."

"Seventh Elder Yu Shu does many things herself, but aren't we the same?"

"Except for taking two hours every day to cultivate soul power, we have no time at all to cultivate in the Gravity Field. However, our Body Strength can withstand more than a hundred times the gravity. From this point, you should be able to see our workload!"

Tenth Elder You Yi's voice was a bit low. After finishing, she looked at Jerry; she could accept whatever punishment Jerry had for their poaching behavior.

Jerry was not an unreasonable person. Although he was very angry about the other elders poaching people from the Education Department, he still had to analyze it calmly.

He released his divine sense, and the entire situation of Wuhun City was laid bare before his eyes.

A moment later, Jerry withdrew his divine sense.

Jerry let out a long sigh.

The things Tenth Elder You Yi said had been verified by Jerry; it was indeed as she said.

He didn't expect that after so many years, it was still the talent aspect that was limiting the development of Wuhun City.

Every department was in this situation, all in a state of high-pressure work.

Now Wuhun City was a bit extreme.

There was a lack of excellent talent, but there were many low-level personnel.

If only there were some way to quickly improve the low-level personnel.

Jerry also knew that learning was not a matter of a single day or night.

The only way Jerry could think of to speed up the cultivation of talent was to use the Time Rule.

Time Acceleration would not work, as it would drastically consume lifespan.

Time Stop would not work either; the Time Stop Jerry comprehended was different from what the World Consciousness used before.

If Jerry released Time Stop, everything except Jerry himself would stop; it was impossible to let any one person in the time-stopped area continue to move.

At that time, when the World Consciousness released Time Stop, Jerry could move. He didn't know if it was because his comprehension was insufficient or if the World Consciousness hadn't explained it clearly.

Many of the rules at the beginning were shared with them by the World Consciousness, so they hadn't considered so much.

But now he really needed to use this rule, and the World Consciousness was a bit guarded against him now; he didn't know if the World Consciousness would tell the truth.

Jerry was very helpless and contacted the World Consciousness.

The World Consciousness thought for a moment and felt that this point would have no effect on it, so it said: "Jerry, the method I used before was a combination of time and space. Using the Time Rule to fix the time flow of a space belongs to the nested use of rules."

"The specific method is to first use the Time Rule to stop the time of a space, and then open up another space within that space. In this space, the Time Stop is lifted. Influenced by the external environment, even if tens of thousands of years pass inside this space, the time outside is still stopped, so it will not affect lifespan."

"That is the method. I cannot directly help you do this; for specific use, you can only rely on your own comprehension."

After the World Consciousness finished speaking, it disconnected from Jerry.

So that was how it was; two rules used in a nested way, where the rule nested inside would be influenced by the rule outside.

It seemed very simple, but for the specific operation, Jerry would need to try it slowly.

However, before succeeding, he could only slightly slow down the development speed of Wuhun City.

Being in a high-pressure work state for a long time, the body will not be able to hold up; when problems arise then, the losses will outweigh the gains.

For the sake of stable development, I can only slow down the speed of development a little.
