Chapter 649: The Peak Jianmu, the Divine Tree Shrouding the White Day Land

"Of course, it is precisely because of the existence of the Hope Fire that we need to increase our population significantly."

"Because the power of the Hope Fire comes from the power of faith of all living beings."

"If our numbers continue to grow, then the power of faith will surge."

"Afterward, perhaps relying solely on the vast Hope Fire will be enough to eliminate the Darkness."

Li Zhangchun said in a deep voice.

The other Qingyun Sect Cultivators also nodded in unison; they felt that this point could certainly be achieved.

After all, according to the current development speed of the various races in the Immortal World, there should certainly be no problem.

As long as no accidents occur to interrupt the development of the various races, it will be fine.

"But with such a large population, can the current area of the White Day Land support so many?"

Zhu Immortal King asked curiously.

To tell the truth, a large population is sometimes not a good thing.

Because a large population will bring a heavy financial burden.

The land is only so large, and the food that can be produced is also only so much.

If a large number of people are born, then the resources distributed to each immortal will be very little.

In this way, it is actually unfavorable for the birth of high-level immortals.

After all, the higher the level of the immortal, the more massive the cultivation resources required.

It is simply not something that mortals can compare to.

If a large population is added in a short period of time, the current finances of the various races may not be able to bear it.

At that time, it might trigger a population disaster, thereby causing internal strife.

"There is no problem with this point."

"Lord Zhu Immortal King perhaps does not yet know that Lord Xuanhuang Immortal King is the most skilled at cultivating Immortal Medicine."

"It is precisely thanks to the vigorous promotion by Lord Xuanhuang Immortal King that Medicine Gardens now cover every corner of the Immortal World."

"Moreover, the growth cycle of Immortal Medicine is very short, and a large amount of Immortal Medicine can be cultivated in a short time."

"For the many immortals in the Immortal World, the cost of Immortal Medicine has dropped by who knows how many times during this period."

"If it were in the past, not many immortals could afford to eat Immortal Medicine."

"But now, even ordinary people can afford to eat ordinary Immortal Medicine."

"This has also led to a huge increase in the strength of the immortals."

A Qingyun Sect Cultivator explained.

Undoubtedly, compared to before, the productivity of the Immortal World has now increased by thousands upon thousands of times.

Previously, the production efficiency of the Immortal World was truly too low; it was completely a matter of rough growth.

The efficiency of land utilization had not been raised to the extreme.

That is why the population supported was so small, and sometimes there would even be situations where resources were insufficient.

But the emergence of the Xuanhuang Sect completely changed this.

It caused the production efficiency of the land in the Immortal World to increase by more than ten thousand times.

At every moment, a large amount of Immortal Rice and Immortal Medicine is produced.

At the same time, the Heavenly Court is not afraid of overproduction.

If it really cannot be eaten, it can also be stored in warehouses.

In any case, the Heavenly Court also has storage technology that can make time and space stand still, so even storing it for hundreds of millions of years is no problem.

It is precisely because of this that he feels the current population of the Immortal World has far from reached its limit.

"That is correct, I feel that the population of the Immortal World certainly has a limit."

"Once the limit is reached, then the population of the Immortal World will no longer be suitable for large-scale increases."

"But as of now, the population is still far too small relative to the vast land of the Immortal World."

"At the very least, we must develop for hundreds of billions of years before we need to consider whether the population is too large."

"And now we are still constantly reclaiming land eroded by the power of Eternal Night."

"In the short term, there is actually no need to worry about the problem of having too many people."

Another Qingyun Sect Cultivator explained.

"The prices of Immortal Pills, Immortal Medicine, and Immortal Rice have all dropped by many times?"

"No wonder I feel that so many immortals have been born."

"That Xuanhuang Immortal King's methods are truly extraordinary."

"If things continue like this, the number of immortals born in the Immortal World will surely be more than ten thousand times what it was before."

Zhu Immortal King also had to admit that such a development strategy was quite correct.

To tell the truth, worrying about a population explosion and the Immortal World's land being unable to support it is purely a bit of groundless fear.

If the Dark Race were to attack the White Day Land, who knows how many people would die or be injured at that time.

Now it is just that there is no war.

Once war appears, I am afraid that no matter how large the population is, it will feel far from enough.

Undoubtedly, the Heavenly Court is currently just preparing for the final decisive battle.

From a certain perspective, this can also be considered taking precautions.

"Yes, actually the effects have already appeared quite a bit."

"Not to mention how much the numbers of True Immortals, Earth Immortals, and Heavenly Immortals have increased; there are simply too many, and it is impossible to count them."

"Let us just talk about the Immortal Kings."

"Over these one billion years, our Human Race has given birth to at least three hundred."

"And they are all newly born Immortal Kings."

Li Zhangchun smiled slightly.

Originally, due to the invasion of the Dark Race, the Human Race had lost over seven hundred Immortal Kings.

But now, due to the rise of the Human Race, the number of Immortal Kings has instead been partially replenished.

If things continue this way, restoring the number of Immortal Kings to their peak period is absolutely not a problem.

"What? In the span of one billion years, three hundred Immortal Kings were actually born?"

"How on earth was this kind of thing achieved?"

Zhu Immortal King was simply incredulous.

He knew just how difficult it was for an Immortal King to be born; sometimes, it took hundreds of billions of years, and one might not even be born.

The reason the Human Race had over a thousand Immortal Kings was merely because they had gradually accumulated them over who knows how many trillions of years.

Now, three hundred Immortal Kings were actually born in just one billion years; this was something unimaginable in the previous era.

"Well, in fact, those Great Luo Golden Immortals were originally only one step away from becoming Immortal Kings."

"The reason they were unable to promote to Immortal King was simply due to a lack of some resources."

"At this time, Lord Xuanhuang Immortal King cultivated a large amount of Seventh-order Immortal Medicine for these Great Luo Golden Immortals to consume."

"Then, these Great Luo Golden Immortals refined the Divine Seal, obtained the Divine Position, and received the protection of vast Luck."

"In this way, the probability of them promoting to Immortal King was greatly increased."

"That is why so many Immortal Kings were born, and why the Divine Position was fought over by so many Great Luo Golden Immortals."

Li Zhangchun explained.

"So that's it; it is because Immortal King-level resources have increased significantly that so many Immortal Kings were born."

"That's right, the Five Great Super Races were too poor before, and simply could not compare to those Prehistoric Civilizations of the past."

"Having lost the assistance of a large amount of resources, wanting to promote to Immortal King naturally became even more difficult."

Zhu Immortal King could not help but nod.

Although he did not consume many resources to promote to Ancient King, how many peerless geniuses like him were there in the entire Immortal World? Most immortals actually only had the aptitude for Great Luo Golden Immortal.

To want to become an Immortal King without the assistance of resources, that is absolutely impossible to achieve.

They walked for another few months.

Zhu Immortal King did not even know how many Human Race cities he had passed through, which also opened the eyes of an old antique like him.

Compared to before, the current Immortal World cities were clearly more populous and more prosperous and lively.

Under the suppression of the gods, many immortals rarely engaged in killing others to seize treasures, which caused safety to increase significantly.

Even mortals could walk in front of immortals.

It was simply the integration of immortals and mortals.

Once a homicide case occurred, it would be solved immediately, and basically, the murderer would have nowhere to hide.

Without a doubt, this was a vibrant era.

After all, people might lie or be deceived, but facts would not.

The vigorous development of the entire Immortal World thoroughly proved that under the leadership of Xuanhuang Immortal King, the strength of all major races had been greatly improved, and the number of immortals had also increased significantly.

Continuing to develop like this, the Human Race would certainly be able to increase the number of Immortal Kings even more, perhaps even surpassing any previous era.

"I want to go and see Xuanhuang Immortal King."

A glimmer of light appeared in Zhu Immortal King's eyes; he was very much looking forward to seeing what such a brilliant and talented junior was like. Perhaps this person held the hope of defeating the Eternal Night.

"No problem, Lord Xuanhuang Immortal King resides in the Central Immortal Domain."

"Now, our Human Race's Central Immortal Domain has become the core land of the five races."

"As long as you take the Teleportation Array, you can arrive instantly."

Many Qingyun Sect Cultivators all nodded.

They felt that an ancient existence like Zhu Immortal King would sooner or later meet Xuanhuang Immortal King.

Both sides were the most top-tier big figures of the Human Race.

"Oh, does every Human Race city now have a Teleportation Array?"

Zhu Immortal King asked curiously.

He remembered that in the previous Human Territory, only medium-sized cities or above could possibly build Teleportation Arrays, and they were only short-distance Teleportation Arrays; only super cities could possibly build inter-continental Teleportation Arrays to span countless light-years of distance.

But it seemed, according to the other party's meaning, that the Teleportation Array in every city could be used to teleport anywhere at will.

If that could really be done, then the transportation of the Immortal World would be incomparably convenient.

"That's right, now the cities of our Five Great Super Races, regardless of size, are all equipped with Teleportation Arrays."

"As long as we are willing, we can reach any city from the Teleportation Array of any city."

"And the price is also many times cheaper than before."

"Even ordinary immortals can afford it."

"It is precisely because of this that immortals from all over the Immortal World frequently travel to various major continents."

"This has also made the communication between major continents become incomparably frequent."

Li Zhangchun smiled slightly.

He also felt that the Immortal World in this era was incomparably convenient.

If it were before, it would have been too difficult for ordinary immortals to cross a major continent.

Moreover, the price of Teleportation Arrays was also very expensive, and ordinary immortals simply could not afford it.

Therefore, many Immortals are confined to the great continents where they reside, basically unable to leave for their entire lives.

But now, it is different.

Because Teleportation Arrays are everywhere, and the price of the Teleportation Arrays is low, it has facilitated every Immortal.

"How on earth was this achieved?"

"The construction cost of a Teleportation Array is not cheap."

"Moreover, every time it is activated, it requires the consumption of a large amount of Immortal Stone; how was the consumption reduced?"

Zhu Immortal King asked curiously.

To tell the truth, the Immortal Kings of the five great races previously also wanted to reduce the cost of Teleportation Arrays, but that was simply unrealistic.

Because the cost of building a Teleportation Array is truly too expensive; it is not something ordinary Immortals can afford.

Even if the cost of building a Teleportation Array were free, every activation would still require the consumption of a large amount of Immortal Stone.

So the price could simply not be brought down.

As time passed, this also became a convention in the Immortal World.

"The method is very simple; it is because Lord Xuanhuang Immortal King resurrected the Divine Tree."

"And the Divine Tree has even become Lord Xuanhuang Immortal King's life-bound immortal plant."

"The current Divine Tree grows in the Central Immortal Domain and can be called the highest Divine Tree in the Immortal World."

"At present, the Divine Tree is the center of the many Teleportation Arrays in the Immortal World."

"Every Teleportation Array is connected to the Divine Tree, and then, through the power of the Divine Tree, one is shifted to another Teleportation Array."

"So, by borrowing the power of the Divine Tree, we have reduced the consumption of the Teleportation Arrays to the greatest extent, facilitating every Immortal."

Li Zhangchun explained.

Ever since Zhou Sui became the Heavenly Emperor of the Immortal World and the leader of the five races, the Divine Tree also emerged from the depths of the earth, reappearing in the Immortal World once again, becoming the tallest tree in the Immortal World, truly standing between heaven and earth.

At the same time, the Divine Tree also grew rapidly; its roots covered the entire White Day Land, shrouding every inch of the places where the five great races live, covering every corner.

Within the space-time Domain of the Divine Tree, it can naturally teleport every living being.

Furthermore, the materials for every Teleportation Array used branches from the Divine Tree's own body.

To a certain extent, these Teleportation Arrays are one of the incarnations of the Divine Tree.

Therefore, driving the power of a Teleportation Array is equivalent to resonating with the Divine Tree.

The five great races and countless cities are using the power of the Divine Tree to build a massive transportation network covering the White Day Land, like a huge web of transportation, shrouding every place.

It can be completely said that the five great races are now living on the roots of the Divine Tree.

"It actually resurrected the Divine Tree?"

Hearing this, Zhu Immortal King felt a shock in his heart, which simply stirred up stormy waves.

He knew exactly how powerful the Divine Tree was; it was a powerful Immortal King of the former True Spirit Alliance.

Although it was a True Spirit born in this era, its strength was earth-shattering, reaching the level of a Taigu Immortal King.

The reason why its cultivation progressed so quickly.

Was because the Divine Tree was among the first batch of True Spirits born in this era, equivalent to an Innate Realm deity of this era, so it also obtained the most resources and a large amount of Chaos Crystal.

This also caused the Divine Tree to advance by leaps and bounds, progressing with astonishing speed, far beyond what other Immortal Kings could compare to.

However, the tree that stands above the forest will be destroyed by the wind.

Because the power of the Divine Tree was too strong, it had long been targeted by the Immortal Kings of the Dark Race.

And they plotted for countless years.

In the end, the Divine Tree still fell into the schemes of the Dark Race Immortal Kings; some True Spirits were possessed by the Dark Race, and then these True Spirits secretly approached the Divine Tree and infused Eighth-order Poison into the Divine Tree's body.

This also caused the Divine Tree to suffer unprecedented, heavy damage.

Then, it was besieged by many Ancient Kings of the Dark Race and ultimately perished.

However, before dying, the Divine Tree still split its body into countless pieces, scattering them all over this Universe.

Hoping that one day in the future, it would still have a chance to be resurrected.

Even if its original Soul did not return, a new Divine Tree could still be born.

But the True Spirit Alliance spent countless years and still could not resurrect the Divine Tree.

Unexpectedly, in this current era, that Xuanhuang Immortal King actually really resurrected the Divine Tree; it is truly inconceivable.
