Chapter 139: Spiritual Energy Transformation (Part 2)
After a short period of time, Qin Muling slowly stopped his cultivation.
At this moment, within a radius of three thousand zhang centered around his feet, the soil had almost returned to normal. The violent and chaotic spiritual energy had been assimilated by more than half, and strands of black mist continuously separated from the soil and dissipated into the air.
Several former clan leaders squatted on the ground, carefully grabbing a handful of soil and observing it. The corrosive dark energy had indeed dissipated significantly, and the soil had undergone subtle changes in its composition.
Upon careful exploration with his divine sense, it seemed that some indescribable vitality had sprouted within the soil. Although extremely subtle, it proved that the soil was indeed transforming for the better.
Perhaps, as long as Qin Muling tried a few more times, he could completely restore this land to normal.
"Master, what... what kind of Divine Ability spell is this?" Yang Song hesitated for a moment before cautiously asking.
In his eyes, this mysterious and beautiful young man seemed even more unfathomable. Although he couldn't be considered a master himself, he had lived for nearly a thousand years and had never heard of such a world-changing technique. Even in the legendary Supreme Dao, he had never heard of such a powerful Divine Ability.
Well, it might be an exaggeration to say it was world-changing now, but that was because the master's cultivation was not enough. If he could achieve Immortal Transformation and ascend to the true Immortal Realm in the future, this unimaginable ability would undoubtedly reach new heights.
Qin Muling glanced at him and said, "This is a Divine Ability I created myself. Don't ask about anything else. Remember not to reveal a word to anyone, or you will know the consequences."
The five former clan leaders hurriedly agreed. Everyone present had their souls controlled by Qin Muling, and with a single thought, he could decide their life and death. Naturally, they were not afraid of them leaking any information.
If a powerful outsider were to capture them and forcefully search their souls, the restrictions hidden deep within their souls would self-destruct, incinerating their soul origins completely, leaving no valuable information behind.
In the following days, Qin Muling conducted numerous experiments repeatedly. After various comparative tests, he finally gained a more intuitive understanding of his unique ability.
As long as he spent half an hour and exhausted all his mana, Qin Muling could completely restore an area with a radius of one hundred li and a depth of five hundred zhang underground.
Of course, dealing with areas with dense rivers and lakes would be more troublesome, as water is constantly flowing. Therefore, a strategic approach was needed, starting from the source of the rivers to purify and solve the problem.
Considering his own safety, Qin Muling could not exhaust all his mana at once. He had to reserve half of his power for emergencies. With the miraculous power of the Innate Primordial Spirit Seed, he could restore himself to full strength in an instant.
Based on this calculation, as long as Qin Muling worked diligently, he could restore hundreds of li of dead zones in a day, turning them into suitable habitats for the growth of plants and the settlement of ordinary people.
This floating land in the void had a radius of over thirty thousand li, and the dead zones accounted for nearly two-thirds of its size. Excluding a few areas with severe pollution and an accumulation of dark and filthy energy that couldn't be purified temporarily, most of the other areas could be restored to normal under Qin Muling's ability.
Especially in areas where the situation was relatively mild and there were spiritual veins underground, after restoration and further cultivation, they could be developed into ordinary spiritual fields.
"From this perspective, it will take at most half a year to completely transform this floating land into fertile soil. With proper integration and management, the annual output and income can be increased by dozens of times compared to the current situation."
"With sufficient income, more elite subordinates can be cultivated, and more population and territory can be seized. This is a process of positive feedback, ultimately forming a snowball effect. Of course, the speed of one's own cultivation must keep up, otherwise, in the face of experts, all the hard-earned foundation will be taken away by others..."
Qin Muling pondered in his heart. Since he came out to travel, his master Mu Yinghua did not give any task restrictions, which means that no matter what he wants to do now, the sect will not interfere.
Therefore, he wanted to establish himself here and verify some of his speculations about this time and space world, which is completely feasible.
"For now, let's leave it at that and go back to continue the discussion."
Qin Muling said, turning around and boarding the flying cloud platform again. Yang Song and the other five former clan leaders quickly followed suit and ascended into the air.
Near the Yang Clan's mansion, a magnificent giant city was under construction.
After unifying the entire floating land, the former clan leaders wisely proposed that Qin Muling establish a country and be honored as the first generation sovereign, giving them legitimacy for future expansion.
Qin Muling's response was that there was no need to rush, and they could wait until the territory was larger. At the very least, they had to swallow the Soul Executing Valley first, and if any other forces attacked during that time, they would not be spared either.
However, after looking through the information of all the towns on the floating land, Qin Muling discovered that there was not a single city that met his expectations, as they were far from satisfactory in various aspects.
So, at his command, the five former clan leaders worked diligently for several days and presented several sets of new city planning designs, along with more than ten suitable addresses for building new cities, for Qin Muling to review.
After Qin Muling looked through them and was somewhat satisfied, he selected one of the plans and instructed them to gather the necessary manpower and resources to start construction.
The planned city walls were sixty zhang high, divided into three layers inside and out, with each wall stretching three hundred li. The space in the city was sufficient to accommodate tens of millions of mortals, and there were various supporting facilities, all built according to the standards of a capital city of a Great Emperor's country.
In the central area of the city, there was a dedicated palace area for Qin Muling, with multiple spiritual veins converging underground. It was the best location in terms of geography and abundant spiritual energy on the floating land.
For secular dynasties, such a massive project was unimaginable and would require the effort of the entire nation and several years to complete. If the national strength was lacking, it could lead to financial bankruptcy or a change of dynasty.
However, with the participation of cultivators who possessed great power, such a project was nothing to be concerned about.
On the construction site, including over ten thousand slaves and thousands of cultivators, more than a hundred thousand young adults were busy day and night. As a result, the progress was quite rapid. It was estimated that the construction, including the twelve vassal cities and the supporting road and canal projects, would be completed in about a month.
The flying cloud platform circled above the bustling construction site and then landed lightly in the palace area. This was Qin Muling's residence, the first area to be completed. The palace and gardens were connected, and the construction was luxurious and grand, with every detail exquisite.
On the square, thousands of carefully selected beautiful palace maids had already changed into new attire and were waiting in line. When they saw Qin Muling descend from the cloud platform, they all knelt down in unison to greet him.
"That's enough, you can all get up!"
Qin Muling casually waved his hand, indicating for them to leave.
Just then, an elder from the Yang Clan hurriedly approached and saluted before reporting, "Master, an envoy from the Soul Executing Valley has arrived. They say... we should immediately go and welcome them. How should we handle this?"
Qin Muling was slightly surprised, "Didn't they say they would come later? Why are they here early?"
"Well, since the integration is already complete, let's take this opportunity to resolve it together!"
