Chapter 587 - 587 Disdain For the Two Great Empires
587 Disdain For the Two Great Empires
Lin Qiye waved his hand, and the two stacks of lists in front of him flew into the air.
His consciousness scanned through each list, and Wan Meng finished reading it instantly.
“The secular world has indeed declined. There are only a few good-looking items in the resource reserves of the two empires. Both added together can’t even compare to the Shang Empire.”
Wan Meng shook her head in disgust.
Lin Qiye frowned. “How many items in this list of resources can I use?”
“There are only a hundred items, and most coincide with the resources Huyan Meng gave you. The ones that can really fill your cultivation list only add up to ten or so items,” Wan Meng said casually.
After leaving the Heavenly God Palace, Lin Qiye asked Wan Meng to draw up a list of resources for him to cultivate to the Celestial Realm.
During the trip to Shang Empire, Huyan Meng emptied the entire treasury and gathered half of the list.
Lin Qiye had thought that if he found the other two empires and added the heritage of Country Xu, he might be able to gather a set.
However, he didn’t expect the combined resources of Country Man and Country Baitan would only make up one-tenth of the remaining resources.
Based on this situation, even if Country Xu could still gain him something, it would be amazing if they could only get one-tenth at most.
“Sigh, forget it. The resources of the secular world can’t be compared to the Heavenly God Palace. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have been stuck at the peak of the Earth Immortal Realm after being Kings for so many years.”
Lin Qiye sighed and quickly understood the crux of the matter.
Among the four great empires, only the Emperor of Empire Shang was a powerhouse in the Celestial Realm. The rest were stuck at the peak of the Earth Immortal Realm.
One of the main reasons was probably the lack of resources.
“What about the other materials? Is there anything that can be used?”
“Many are useful. For example, many of their specialties have medicinal properties suitable to be used to refine the awakening potion you have.”
Lin Qiye told Wan Meng about the awakening potion.
This time around, he had come to the four empires to collect resources. Other than looking for items he could use, he also wanted to gather a large number of materials to produce the awakening potion.
“Oh? Can you estimate how many portions you can make?” Lin Qiye perked up.
“Oh, if the data they gave is correct, we should be able to make ten billion elementary and one billion intermediate potions. However, there were some missing materials for high-level potions. If we ask the Shang Empire and Country Xu as well, we could gather about ten million sets. And…”
Lin Qiye’s heart began to race when he heard half of it.
The materials from these two empires had perfectly made up for his lack of awakening potions.
The elementary awakening potion could allow a person without any cultivation to reach the Foundation Establishment Realm.
The intermediate potion could allow a Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator to form a golden core.
As for the high-grade awakening potion, a Golden Core Realm cultivator could easily cross through the Nascent Soul Realm. A Nascent Soul Realm cultivator could also have a high chance of reaching the Embodier Realm.
Even if there were losses in the process of using the potion, based on preliminary estimates, this batch could produce at least 900 million Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators and over 100 million Golden Core Realm cultivators. As for Nascent Soul Realm and Embodier Realm experts, there were almost ten million of them!
Ten million Golden Core Realm cultivators were enough to fight against Country Man’s military strength.
A hundred million was enough to crush the mortal world.
According to the information Lin Qiye had on hand, the demon that had invaded this world was the newly-born sky-devouring demon clan.
Their numbers weren’t as large as the other demon tribes, but their members were all powerful.
The number of demons Lin Qiye had cleared out in Country Xu was in the millions. Among them, the weakest Foundation Establishment Realm demons accounted for about 80%.
The remaining 10% was in the Golden Core Realm. The other 10% were high-level battle strength above the Nascent Soul Realm.
This ratio was terrifying.
One had to know that 99.99% of the other demonic tribes were Foundation Establishment Realm cannon fodder!
In terms of demon nests, the sky-devouring demon clan had Earth Immortal Realm experts guarding medium-grade nests.
However, most of the demons, even the high-grade demon nests, only had cultivators at the Human Immortal Realm guarding them.
“The Celestial Realm experts of the sky-devouring demon clan should be similar to those of the Heavenly God Palace. As for the low-level combatants, although there’s no specific information, they’re estimated to be around one billion from the demon nests that have been revealed.”
Lin Qiye was ecstatic.
The Heavenly God Palace would definitely come forward to resist the high-level fighting force of the demon clan.
As long as Lin Qiye could block the most deadly Immortal Realm demons, he could rely on the army created by the awakening potion to deal with the remaining low-level combat forces.
Of course, losses were inevitable.
After all, the individual combat strength of a demon was stronger than that of a human.
He could only protect as many humans as possible through various defensive arrays and weapons.
“Hey! Did you hear what I said?”
Just as Lin Qiye was thinking about how to unite the four great empires and distribute their forces, Wan Meng’s voice pulled him back to reality.
“Yeah. What’s wrong?”
In his consciousness, Lin Qiye looked at Wan Meng.
“As I said earlier, the highest-grade awakening potion requires even more materials. However, when you showed me your spiritual herb warehouse earlier, there were quite some materials that could be used to make up for the lack.”
The highest-grade awakening potion could allow an Embodier Realm cultivator to break through to the Incarnation Realm.
However, the materials required were relatively rare. Even Lin Qiye could only make thousands of them.
Although he still had many precious spiritual herbs in his storage, he could not complete a set of them, so he could not continue to make new potions.
Now that he heard from Wan Meng that the list of items from the two great empires could complement his inventory, he couldn’t help but ask, “How many of the highest-grade awakening potions can you make?”
Wan Meng held up a semi-transparent list she had conjured with her mental power.
“Although the two empires don’t have much good stuff, they have plenty of these things. You can complete the conversion of all your stock.”
“All of them?”
Lin Qiye was shocked. He had more than 100,000 incomplete sets in his inventory.
“That’s right, about 130,000 copies.”
Wan Meng confirmed Lin Qiye’s thoughts.
That much?
Lin Qiye’s hands couldn’t help but tremble.
That was one hundred and thirty thousand Incarnation Realm experts!
These numbers were enough to kill an Earth Immortal Realm powerhouse in a head-on confrontation. Even if a Celestial Realm powerhouse came, they had to take it seriously.
“Good! Very good!”
Lin Qiye couldn’t help but shout out in his consciousness.
His body in the outside world also revealed a trace of unconcealed joy because of his excitement.
The Kings of Country Man and Country Baitan, who had been observing his reaction, were overjoyed when they saw this. They thought that it should be settled.
“Lord Holy Infant, is there anything that you can use?” The two asked.
Lin Qiye gathered his thoughts and nodded at them.
“These resources are still useful. Are you sure you can gather the amount on the list?”
“There’s no problem! Our treasury’s resources are regularly checked and strictly guarded. There won’t be any problems!”
The two Kings said with absolute certainty.
“Good. I’ll immediately find someone to meet with you. Hand over the resources to me, and I’ll quickly help you create an army with at least a Foundation Establishment Realm cultivation base.”
“In addition, I will also send my men to build a defensive array in your country. You can ask Country Xu and the Shang Empire for specific details. I won’t go into it here.”
Lin Qiye went through his protocol, but there were some changes to the details of the deal.
The people of the two empires were a little confused.
They didn’t know what deal Lin Qiye had made with Country Xu and the Shang Empire. As for the array he mentioned, they didn’t know anything about it.
“This…”
The two country rulers looked at Lin Qiye and then at each other. They were in a difficult position.
It was hard to accept that they had to take out their treasures without even stating the amount.
Lin Qiye understood them, so he explained, “As I said just now, your resources will be of some use, but most will be used on you.”
“I said I would help you build an army, and that is because I need those materials.”
“As for the specific number of people in the army, it will depend on how many resources you can provide.”
“I’ll still say the same thing. For specific details, you can ask Country Xu and the Shang Empire. In addition, I need to take away the materials on the list immediately. Someone will come to contact you with the rest soon.”
