My construction materials are weird

Xuan Huang's concern stemmed from fear of the Abyss's reaction.

After all, this was an extension of him, yet different from the Mind Crystal and the Great Grinding Wheel.

The Great Grinding Wheel was his own, Guixu wouldn't react, and if it would, it should have reacted when he first entered Guixu. Since it didn't before, he wasn't worried.

The Mind Crystal was even more special, not strictly an extension, but more like a golden finger belonging to Lin Fan, the Child of Destiny.

It wouldn't be targeted by the will of the Bitter Sea.

The Red Mansion was different; it was a true, strict extension. Devouring it might displease the Abyss's will.

Furthermore, if he had to say who he had the biggest conflict with...

Leaving Guixu aside, Xuan Huang's biggest conflict among the Seven Heavens was with the Abyss.

Gou Jianren's superiors, the three Demon Gods, were Abyss creatures. Xuan Huang had thwarted them many times and couldn't guarantee the Abyss's satisfaction.

But everything went smoothly.

"Good, good, go digest it first," Xuan Huang said in a comforting tone.

"Yes!" The Ghost Ship quickly left on its own.

Xuan Huang didn't care; life finds its own way. This was his consistent style.

The children are grown up, why bother so much? They'll figure things out themselves.

Just like the Ghost Ship, it quickly retreated back to Qingyun Mountain.

––––

"Three big brothers, three bosses, I need help."

"What is it?" Jianmu answered on behalf of the others.

"Oh dear, indigestion? Purgatory brother has experience in this area, you better ask him and learn," the Guixu Grinding Wheel chimed in.

"Okay, Stone Brother, I'll ask now, I'll go in first," said the Ghost Ship.

"… …"

"Purgatory Brother, I need your help," said the Ghost Ship.

"Speak," said Purgatory.

"It's like this, little brother went out with the master…"

"Easy, easy, wait for me to transmit it to you…" said Purgatory.

"… …"

"Three big brothers, Purgatory Brother has transmitted it, I have experience now," said the Ghost Ship.

"Okay, digest it well… By the way, where's the master?" Jianmu asked.

"Huh?" The Ghost Ship was stunned: "Master originally planned to enter the Abyss to explore, but… but I took the entrance away?"

The Ghost Ship suddenly realized.

"Oh, you, you, still young, too careless," Jianmu said in an educational tone.

"Me?"

"Alright, don't overthink it. Master often says life finds its own way, you don't need to worry about the master, just take care of yourself, go digest it," said Jianmu.

"Oh, seems like it," said the Ghost Ship.

––––

The above is everything the Ghost Ship experienced after returning. The communication between supreme treasures isn't really like this, it's just a little anthropomorphized.

Anyway, that's the general idea.

Xuan Huang, on the other hand, suddenly realized the road was gone.

The Ghost Ship had taken it away. He was supposed to enter the Abyss to establish a dojo, what should he do?

"That idiot, forget it, let's go to the Blood Sea," Xuan Huang thought, deciding to go to the Blood Sea. The Blood Sea was more mysterious, he hadn't been there once, let's go there first.

As for the location, it was the old place.

The starting fund pool of the Martial Dao Alliance, and also the blood pool he initially guarded.

Xuan Huang flashed away from this place and went to the back mountain.

With the disappearance of the Red Mansion, it was equivalent to the disappearance of the Abyss's extension in this place. The land that was eroded and infected by the Abyss withered visibly.

It wouldn't be long before it would become a more mysterious place, rather than the previous entrance to the Abyss.

Just as Xuan Huang was about to enter the Blood Sea.

Qingyun Mountain.

A major event happened, concerning the Merit Hall and the Demon Suppression Department.

The two major departments jointly announced the construction of a Transcendent Technology City, located in Taishi.

Which was the neighboring city to Nanshi.

However, due to the changes in Blue Star, Taishi and Nanshi had undergone great changes.

Currently, the area of one Nanshi is the size of the previous Asia, just imagine how big the change is.

One city is a continent, and currently such cities are everywhere on Blue Star.

Nanshi is considered small, cities ten times, a hundred times, or even a thousand times larger than Nanshi are even more common.

However, the expansion of Nanshi's area was intentional, controlled by Jianmu.

It was said long ago that because of the changes in Nanshi, because of the rise of cultivators, the environment had changed.

This was the change brought about by cultivators.

A long time ago, Nanshi no longer gave birth to anomalies, which was one of the changes, and there were many greater changes.

For example, the spaces or small worlds integrated into Nanshi were all spiritually rich mountains and rivers inclined towards cultivation, the kind where every place was a spiritual mountain and holy land, not an uninhabited area, a rough wilderness that was integrated.

It was equivalent to the most essential regions of each world being integrated into Nanshi, and the barren lands of each world were not qualified to be integrated into Nanshi and its surroundings.

Integrated into Nanshi, or even into Haidai Province, the most prosperous place for cultivators, were all the most essential places in each world.

Just because Xuan Huang was here, the environment changed because of his appearance.

The reason for choosing Taishi was because Taishi met the requirements for establishing a Transcendent Technology City, at least it had to be a large city with more than ten million people.

And Taishi, currently, had a population of over one hundred million.

That's right, it's over one hundred million.

As a city surrounding Nanshi, without a population of over one hundred million, it was not worthy of being a large city.

As for the population of Nanshi, according to statistics, it had exceeded five hundred million, making it difficult to measure these cities by the scale of cities.

To digress, the population exploded.

With a safe environment, no worries about food and clothing, and the promotion and dissemination of the Four Supers and Eight Greats, the population had begun to explode.

A simple example, a couple having five children was the standard, think about it and you'll understand.

Adding up the small worlds, spaces, and the main world, the population of Haidai Province alone exceeded five billion.

The reason for having so many children was for a reason.

For example, the Four Supers promoted that the more children you have, the higher the proportion of those with cultivator qualifications. With just this point, how could the people not desperately give birth?

As long as a family gave birth to a cultivator, it would directly transform the world, possibly becoming a cultivator family. With this heavy weight, the people were very willing to give birth.

In addition, the holy lands were improving, and the creatures on the holy lands were also improving. Giving birth to a child was a very simple matter for ordinary people.

Strong bodies made childbirth no longer a burden.

The Four Supers, the Eight Greats, and the new government also took care of such pregnant women, so it became unstoppable.

The power of role models was also key. Many families were qualitatively improved because their children became cultivators. With such role models, how could they not give birth?

The Four Supers circulated the saying: Our Blue Star is rapidly improving, and our physical fitness is also rapidly improving. This period is the easiest to give birth to special geniuses, or heaven-defying geniuses.

And the source of these geniuses, ninety-nine percent of them are from ordinary people.

Saying this, the people may not understand it very well, but they understand the dividends of the era.

Standing on the cusp of the wind, even pigs can fly, this point is still very clear.

In short, the dividend of the era is the transformation of the Holy Land, and the Holy Spirit is the biggest beneficiary of this wave of dividends. During this period of opportunity, the best investment is to have children.

Perhaps due to the wonders of creation, the child in your belly is a peerless genius.

Because of Xuan Huang's influence, the Four Superpowers and Eight Great Families, as well as the new government, will not promote any theory of superior bloodlines.

What they tell the people is that whether or not you have the qualifications to cultivate does not depend on whether your parents are cultivators, although the proportion of children with cultivation qualifications is higher if their parents are cultivators.

However, the children of ordinary couples can also give birth to cultivators, and even the most heaven-defying cultivators come from ordinary people.

This is the propaganda route of the new government and the Four Superpowers under the influence of Xuan Huang.

There is no such thing as 'I am a cultivator, you are an ordinary person, so you are inferior and lowly, and I am noble and excellent.'

Only animals pay attention to bloodlines.

Without exception, all must be considered!

This concept has always been Xuan Huang's conclusion and the slogan promoted by his disciples.

All of the above reasons have led to childbirth being the strongest and most rewarding investment.

This is what led to the population explosion.

However, it is impossible for there to be no chain of contempt at all.

Cultivators dare not disobey, as this is the law decreed by Xuan Huang, whose words are like golden edicts. Who would dare to violate it?

However, ordinary people are different.

Blue Star ordinary people will only find Blue Star people to marry and have children with, and only when there is no other way will they look for beings from the small worlds. Even among the beings from the small worlds, there are distinctions between beings from the great worlds, medium worlds, and small worlds.

In short, those from the great worlds are the best.

And these ordinary people from the small worlds generally look down on humans from the spatial secret realms.

Humans from the spatial secret realms are the lowest level among ordinary people, and no one wants to marry and have children with them.

It's a matter of probability: humans from the main world simply give birth to more cultivators and geniuses than humans from the small worlds and spatial secret realms.

Cultivators dare not show contempt, so they themselves start to despise each other.

If a human from the main world marries a human from a small world or spatial secret realm, it is called a 'lower marriage.'

Regardless of how much wealth or power these beings from the small worlds have, they need to face this situation seriously.

Cultivators from the main world generally think that it is best not to combine with humans from the small worlds, feeling that it will pollute their superior bloodlines.

They dare not say this idea out loud, but it will be reflected in their actions and behavior.

The people of the small worlds understand this, so they give young men and women from the main world who combine with their world very high treatment.

One wants to prevent it, while the other tries to increase this proportion by all means, giving them a very high status. This belongs to a contest between ordinary people.

In the living communities where ordinary people reside, it is common to see a couple with five or six children.

It's impossible for the population not to explode.

Looking at the situation from a broader perspective, and setting aside the concepts of 'main world humans' and 'small world humans,' even cultivators will feel satisfied when they occasionally stroll through the ordinary world.

What do so many children represent?

They represent hope for the future, the continuation and inheritance of cultivators, a giant talent pool. Everyone is happy to see so many people.

The seeds of the future.

In this situation, the provinces and cities that were governed by cultivators earlier are in a better state.

...\n\n"What's going on? The Merit Hall and the Demon Suppression Department are jointly opening a Transcendent Technology City?"

Headquarters of the Four Super Daoist Sects.

A group of Daoists were shocked by this news.

This is a big change.

Previously, no matter what major directional experiments, new cultivation methods, or even new attempts were made, they were all initiated by the Four Superpowers.

They didn't expect that this time, while the Four Great Powers were still considering it, the Merit Hall and the Demon Suppression Department had already begun to take action.

"A very clever decision," said Jiu Tong.

"Yes!" The Daoist sect's high-level officials nodded in agreement.

They understood what the sect leader meant.

The reason was nothing more than the breaking of absolute power, with the emergence of two strong powers. The situation where the Merit Hall had previously dominated alone had changed.

And this change was a combination of internal and external factors.

The internal factor was the Merit Hall's own change of thinking, such as the existence of the Demon Suppression Department that could judge them, and the Demon Suppression Department that had the same status as them.

This required them to digest it internally.

The external change was nothing more than the cultivators' change in perception of the Merit Hall.

Previously, the Merit Hall's words were law, but now it was different. With the existence of the equivalent Demon Suppression Department, the cultivators' respect and fear of the Merit Hall was also halved.

This combination of internal and external changes was like a critical sensitive period.

Cultivators also needed to be cautious about it.

If they were not careful, they would become the first to be targeted and would implicate their own strength.

Only those villains who feared that the world would not be in chaos would think that this was an opportunity to fish in troubled waters.

For the major forces, they did not like this change. They preferred stability, and they would be very cautious about any major changes.

If they were not careful and were considered a provocation by the Merit Hall, they would inevitably be attacked.

To use an adjective to describe it, the Merit Hall at this moment was in a sensitive period, a very sensitive period.

Their monopoly was broken, and they were like wounded dragons, looking at everyone with displeasure, feeling that everyone was a rebellious son.

In such a sensitive period, it was best for major forces not to go against them.

They even had to be more respectful and careful than before when the Merit Hall had a monopoly, so as not to make the wounded dragon dislike them.

While the Merit Hall and the Demon Suppression Department wanted to get through this sensitive period, were the Four Superpowers and Eight Great Families not doing the same?

They were also thinking about how to act cautiously and maintain a low profile to get through this sensitive period.

They didn't expect the Demon Suppression Department and the Merit Hall to solve it themselves.

The Four Superpowers and Eight Great Families were actually happy to hear this news, really happy, not in a hypocritical way.

In this way, both sides had a way out.

This was not necessarily a bad thing.

As for being robbed of the opportunity to build the Transcendent Technology City, it didn't matter. It was good to have someone even richer and more powerful than themselves. Previously, others had learned from their experience.

Now it was finally their turn, the Four Superpowers, to learn from others' experience.

"Immeasurable Xuan Huang Dao Master, this is very good, very good," Jiu Tong said with satisfaction.

...\n\n"Amitabha, good, good." The monks of the Buddhist sect were also very happy to hear this news.

Even their shiny bald heads seemed brighter.

The new scriptures of the Buddhist sect stated that Xuan Huang Dao Master was Amitabha, the embodiment of all the great titles of the Buddhist sect. Although the title had not changed, the person praised was already Xuan Huang.

"The esteemed adults of the Merit Hall and the Demon Suppression Department truly possess great wisdom," Minghui said with a smile.

"Amitabha! In this way, I am afraid that many evil villains will be very disappointed, their plans have failed. This humble monk was worried about this before, but now it seems that the crisis has been mostly resolved."

The Great Monk Jinguang said.

"Amitabha!" The monks nodded in unison.
