Live Strong in the Wilderness
Chapter 617: Cultivating the Supreme Profound Scripture
Unlike Lu Ke, Xu Yi currently has no mind to think about these things.
On the Meditation Mattress, one becomes more focused, which is truly beneficial for cultivation.
In the blink of an eye, another 10 days had passed.
For a full 15 days, after receiving the annual gift pack, Xu Yi was immersed in studying the Supreme Profound Scripture.
Today, Xu Yi finally had some understanding.
So, he began to try cultivating the Supreme Profound Scripture.
For Lu Ke, today was no different from usual.
However, she felt that the Spiritual Energy nearby suddenly became denser.
When she opened her eyes, Lu Ke found Xu Yi surrounded by a cloud of white mist.
These white mists were all Spiritual Energy, incredibly dense.
Unfortunately, Xu Yi had no idea what exactly was happening.
All his attention was focused on the Supreme Profound Scripture, not even opening his Spiritual Vision. The purpose was to get himself to start formally cultivating the Supreme Profound Scripture as soon as possible.
Lu Ke observed for a while and then left the tent.
She felt that Xu Yi might be about to break through to Level 7.
Perhaps Xu Yi had gained insight into some powerful Martial Technique.
No, perhaps it’s the Cultivation Technique!
Thinking of this, Lu Ke’s eyes widened a bit.
If there’s a Cultivation Technique, Xu Yi should be able to quickly break through to Level 7 peak, and then go hunting for Level 8 Fierce Beasts.
After hunting 10 of them, Xu Yi could gain access to the Star Gate.
Then, her family could come to Spirit Blue Star.
Additionally, Xu Yi could acquire the battleship promised by the Spirit Race. Then, returning to Camp One might just take half an hour, and he could go back at any time.
Furthermore, by then, they could explore the entire Spirit Blue Star.
This planet is more than a hundred times the size of Earth Star.
To tour the whole planet, it would take at least several years, right?
After touring Spirit Blue Star, they could go to Planet 1, and other planets.
As long as they are strong enough, they could explore other civilizations and their scenery and cuisine.
So, Lu Ke, waiting outside the tent, was full of anticipation for the future.
By then, Xu Yi should also take her along, right?
Leaning her chin on her hand, Lu Ke absent-mindedly scribbled on the table.
Honestly, she still wanted to sit on the Meditation Mattress and cultivate. Outside the tent, she couldn’t focus on cultivation.
Bai Yu lay beside Lu Ke, rubbing her calves affectionately with its head.
It felt that its little owner hadn’t been paying attention to it recently.
After a while, Lu Ke stood up, glanced at Bai Yu, and said, "Alright, Bai Yu, let’s take a walk around nearby to see if there are any Level 6 Fierce Beasts. Lightning, Black Qilin, you go too; if you find Level 5 and Level 6 Fierce Beasts, come tell me. Xu Yi is at a critical moment and cannot be disturbed."
Lu Ke felt she needed to do something to divert her attention.
Otherwise, she would keep thinking about the Meditation Mattress.
There are still quite a few Level 5 Fierce Beasts nearby.
Lightning and Black Qilin could deal with those themselves without informing Lu Ke.
Lu Ke walked around the vicinity but didn’t discover any traces of Level 6 Fierce Beasts. The previous one had already been killed by her, and no newly upgraded Level 6 Fierce Beast had appeared.
However, whenever she encountered a Level 5 Fierce Beast, Lu Ke would immediately take it down to prevent them from running near the camp and causing trouble.
"Is Xu Yi about to break through to Level 7, with Lu Ke constantly clearing Fierce Beasts nearby?"
"Can’t be. To break through to Level 7, one must go to the territory of Level 7 Fierce Beasts. Only the Spiritual Energy there can provide enough energy for Xu Yi to break through."
"Not necessarily, there’s no absolute in anything. As long as the realm is reached, one can definitely advance. Otherwise, what’s the difference between a territory and a cage?"
"Xu Yi has been cultivating here for half a month; if not for a breakthrough, there might be a stronger Martial Technique appearing. In the past, Xu Yi didn’t take this long to create a Martial Technique."
"I hope, though, that Xu Yi can create a Cultivation Technique of his own, so that humans might be able to surpass the Spirit Race in cultivation."
"Surpass, that’s quite an ambition. Do you have the Spirit Race’s talent, their advantages?"
"Is there a bootlicker for the Spirit Race here, without even a bone for you, you’re already licking?"
"Strongly requesting the Star Gate to add a wisdom filter mechanism."
"Can’t they be sent to feed the Fierce Beasts, so they won’t waste food and air by staying?"
Unlike the audience, Qin Fan, upon seeing Xu Yi and Lu Ke staying in one place for more than 15 days, believed that Xu Yi and Lu Ke had already reached the territory of Level 7 Fierce Beasts.
Otherwise, they wouldn’t stay there for so long.
So, during these 15 days, they were frantically trekking.
Actually, if not for the snail, they might have already caught up with Xu Yi and Lu Ke.
But even so, they’re not far from Xu Yi and Lu Ke, only two or three days away.
Like Qin Fan, Li Kang and his team were also frantically advancing.
They hadn’t given up, even though they knew it was impossible to complete the challenge and successfully hunt 10 Level 8 Fierce Beasts. But becoming stronger would provide a better life for their families.
Moreover, getting stronger would also give them a better life.
This is far fairer than making money or gaining power on Earth Star; it’s entirely based on one’s effort and dedication.
When it comes to talent, there’s no fairness to speak of.
But now, there’s a chance to create unfairness.
They could provide their families with more resources, better security, and faster paths to becoming powerful.
Grasping this opportunity could make them and their families among the few standing at the top of the pyramid.
Faced with such a good opportunity, few are willing to give it up.
No one wants to live a life of mediocrity, obtaining extremely scarce social and survival resources, living in dire poverty where even getting enough food is an issue.
Everyone hopes to possess abundant wealth and power, to live in great comfort.
Now, this opportunity is in front of them.
As long as they become stronger, they and their families can access countless times more resources than ordinary people, achieving strength that others might never reach in their lifetime.
The more resources obtained, the faster the growth in strength, and the stronger they become.
As long as the strong do not slack off or give up, they will become increasingly stronger.
What about the weak?
If you’re willing to give your all and fight, you can still become strong. So, it’s said this world is relatively fair.
After all, fewer than 300 challengers remain. This planet is so vast; they can’t take more than 1% of the resources. It doesn’t have much impact on ordinary people.
But if you’re unwilling to strive and fight, you’ll not only become weaker but also die.
On Spirit Blue Star, death is, indeed, easy.
You don’t even have to be careless; even if you’re cautious, you could be bitten to death by a Fierce Beast.
Addressing this is actually not that difficult, as long as you strive hard.
However, for those who, as a nation, would rather have their whole family go hungry and refuse to work come weekends, if they went to Spirit Blue Star, they’d likely be quickly bitten to death by Fierce Beasts or simply starve to death.
