Planet Pulverizer: A Mortal's Ascent-Chapter 516: Moon Spirit

"Nurturing life..." mused Li Pin, quietly contemplating this characteristic.

The World Heart has the ability to nurture a life group named the Spirit Clan.

All things possessed spirit, and every intelligent being had inner spirit power. It was just that the inner spirit power of many intelligent beings was so weak that it could not even be perceived, let alone manifested. Only through continuous cultivation and refinement, by deriving inner spirit power—mental spirit—could one vaguely judge the strength of inner spirit power.

When mental spirit strength reached a certain standard, the cultivator could confront themselves to awaken their inner spirit.

The World Heart was merely a Solar Flare Divine Equipment. It could not create life out of nothing. Of course, cloned or artificial life that lacked inner spirit didn’t count. Those were akin to intelligent programs.

Thus, the World Heart had chosen another path. It nurtured blank spirits and bound them to humans to coexist symbiotically. Through repeated learning and absorbing the spirituality emitted by humans, it condensed a soul from nothing, completing the transformation from an artificial creation to an intelligent life form.

It was akin to creating a super artificial intelligence that continuously interacts with humans, learns, and ultimately evolves into an intelligent being.

The two were fundamentally similar.

Li Pin fell into thought. Speaking of which, the newly nurtured blank spirits can also serve as auxiliary programs... They can interact with many lives, nurture souls, and transform into life forms...

Once they could become life forms, these spiritual creatures would possess inner spirit power.

For Astral Gods seeking ascension into Divine Beings, living beings with inner spirit power were immeasurably beneficial.

This involved another concept—ascension.

***

After some time, Li Pin fully understood the mysteries of this Solar Flare Divine Weapon's ability to nurture life.

His gaze lingered on the Divine Weapon for a long time.

"If it's about nurturing blank spirits...."

The next moment, the radiance within the World Heart surged, and a powerful spirit was swiftly nurtured and condensed.

As someone with a preference for perfection, Li Pin did his best to nurture this spirit, nearly depleting the remaining energy within the World Heart in the process.

Finally, a blank spirit with spiritual fluctuations as strong as his own was created. Of course, this spirit had inner spirit power but lacked the corresponding realm, so it could not even restrain its inner spirit power.

It appeared entirely pure and flawless. At this moment, anyone could easily control and shape its inner spirit structure.

Fortunately, only Li Pin was present.

As thoughts flowed through his mind, this being with immense inner spirit power transformed into an exquisite young woman. A faint glow surrounded her, and her jade-like fair face exuded cool elegance. A blue dress adorned her figure, and long ribbons fluttered in the light.

She had the appearance of the Moon Goddess. However, she lacked the Moon Goddess’s mature elegance. This version of the Moon Goddess had a more youthful vibe to her. She was more like a young lady of eighteen or nineteen than a woman in her mid-twenties.

Looking at the young Moon Goddess, Li Pin murmured, "I promised to let the clan you created continue, and I naturally keep my word. Although you can no longer see it, someone will inherit your will and lead your clan to witness the more magnificent and dazzling scenery of our world."

With that, Li Pin gestured with his hand, and a powerful inner spirit force spread from his fingertips. He merged with the newly created blank spirit at the spiritual level, becoming one with it.

After a very long time, Li Pin withdrew his hand.

Before him, the cold yet youthful girl showed a trace of liveliness in her eyes. Tilting her head, she looked at Li Pin and asked, "You brought me out? Is this your world?"

"That isn't you. It is just a personality I gave you," Li Pin replied. "You should have your own name."

"I think the name ‘Moon Goddess’ is nice," the young girl replied.

Li Pin said as he looked at her. "Let's call you Moon Spirit. The current you is still a bit different from her."

"Different? Am I not a true life form?"

Li Pin did not answer her question. "Take your time to observe and learn. Eventually, you will understand. For now, return to the Astral World Fragment. I will prepare some books for you to better understand this world."

"Oh," Moon Spirit seemed a little displeased but did not pursue the matter. She said, "If you need help with anything, please summon me."

Li Pin nodded slightly.

After Moon Spirit left, he turned his gaze toward the World Heart.

In the Mara World, the Moon Goddess had created a virtual world called Moon Goddess Domain, selecting the finest talents from the Three Domains to nurture the spiritual creatures, enhancing their spirituality to transform them into true life forms.

He could do the same. He could use technology to create a virtual world similar to the Moon Goddess Domain. Moreover, compared to the artificially dumb spiritual creature assistants in the Moon Goddess Domain, he could make these created spiritual creatures into truly enriched and effective support systems.

At the very least, with his insights and the omniscient and omnipotent path he walked, understanding the cultivation system below the Legendary Realm was not an issue. No, even the Legendary Realm up to Tier Three Legend wouldn’t be an issue. He would merely need to expend more effort.

If he could imbue the blank spiritual creatures with all the knowledge until Tier Three Legend and have them clear up the doubts of cultivators, geniuses would flock to the Moon Goddess Domain, eager to become nurturers of the spiritual creatures he cultivated.

At this moment, Li Pin thought of something.

The Ruoxi Sword is useful, the Immortal Staff is useful, and the World Heart is also useful. None of the three Divine Weapons can be sold. Doesn't that mean I can't earn a huge sum of Divine Treasury Points?

He had been planning to quickly raise his attributes. He wanted to avoid being like an overstuffed fat man, sweating and panting heavily with every movement.

Buzz!

At this moment, Li Pin's communication bracelet vibrated slightly. He glanced at it and already guessed what it was about.

He left the cultivation chamber and exited the mountain peak where he resided. However, as he flew out of the mountain peak, he seemed to sense something.

Someone is watching me?

Following his perception, he looked around but didn’t notice anyone. Whoever it was, their concealment technique exceeded his expectations.

After a brief contemplation, he understood something and chose not to pay further attention.

What should a person do after stuffing themselves with food? Well, they naturally took a stroll to aid digestion.

Before long, Li Pin arrived at a tall tower not far from the Divine Treasury Gate. This was where Astral God Mi Meng, the Hall Master of the Divine Treasury Hall, resided.

Of course, the Astral Gods' true forms remained in the Astral World. These dwellings they had in the Material World were more symbolic than practical.

As Li Pin entered the palace, Fang Chunyang quickly approached and sincerely expressed his gratitude. "Thank you. If not for your last-minute notification, our journey to the Mara World would have likely ended in failure, and we might have even been trapped inside."

Li Pin replied, "It was merely a coincidence. Even without me, I believe you would’ve been able to break through the Mara World one day.”

Fang Chunyang ceased his flattery and switched to another topic. As he lead the way, he said, "This time, we obtained a total of five pieces of Divine Weapons. Although they turned out to be ordinary Starshine Divine Equipment, based on their unique characteristics, we have estimated their value to be no less than ten million Divine Treasury Points."

He smiled and added, "In the Divine Treasury World, information is priceless. Thanks to your information, we returned with great gains. We've discussed this beforehand. Once the detailed valuation of these Divine Weapon is determined, we are willing to allocate ten percent of the profits to you as a token of our gratitude for your timely message."

Li Pin was a little surprised. "Ten percent of the profits?"

That was over a million Divine Treasury Points. Those were enough to exchange for the most basic Starshine Divine Weapon.

Were Fang Chunyang and the others truly this generous?

However, Li Pin did not hypocritically decline. In the divine treasure world, some critical information could fetch astronomical prices. pioneers who didn’t care about their reputation could renege on information deals like these, but most pioneers honored their words.

Li Pin responded, "Thanks."

"It's what we should do." Fang Chunyang smiled. "Several Astral Gods are here to understand the specific details of the Mara World. You should provide them with accurate and detailed information as much as possible. If the information you offer proves valuable, you will receive generous rewards from the Divine Treasury Hall."

At this point, he paused before adding an extra remark. "The issues involved are likely related to the Void Divine Treasure World. If your information is useful, the rewards will be substantial."

"The Void Divine Treasure World?"

This was one of the three Forbidden Divine Treasuries. Even the Cosmic Radiance Astral God, known as the Light of the Universe, could not forcibly break it open. In such a divine treasure world, the chances of obtaining a Cosmic Radiance Divine Equipment would likely skyrocket.

Li Pin nodded in understanding.

Soon, under Fang Chunyang's guidance, he arrived at a solemn and grand conference room. The conference room was circular, with hierarchical steps, and surrounded by dozens of stone pillars.

At first glance, it did not resemble a conference room. It looked more like a courtroom. However, Li Pin understood that the hierarchical steps were primarily to reflect the Astral Gods' supreme status.

Each Astral God was an existence that could be considered immortal, standing at the pinnacle of the world. If they wished, they could easily become the ruler of a star system.

From this, it was easy to see how noble the status of Astral Gods was. It was no exaggeration to say that a star system spanning tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or even millions of light years and nurturing hundreds of thousands or millions of civilizations could not compare to a single Astral God.

Therefore, having a hierarchical conference room was entirely reasonable.

Swoosh!

Shortly after Li Pin arrived in the conference room, streaks of starlight descended rapidly, landing on the many stone pillars.

Each streak of starlight represented an Astral God.

Usually, only three to five Astral Gods managed the regular operations of the Mara Divine Treasury Hall. But now, more than thirty or fifty Astral Gods appeared.

The Divine Treasury Hall clearly attached a lot of importance to information regarding the Mara Divine Treasure World.

When the avatars of many Astral Gods descended, enveloped in starlight and difficult to see clearly, Astral God Mi Meng finally spoke. "Li Pin, don't be nervous."

Her voice was filled with a power that soothed the heart. But with the Divine Weapon on him, Li Pin did not fall into a distracted state again.

Astral God Mi Meng calmly said, "This is a routine inquiry conducted whenever a Divine Treasury World is cleared. The Astral Language Hall records the entire process, and the final results will be uploaded to the Supreme Council.

"We want to understand how you cleared the Mara World. Please share everything you know. Based on the value of the information you provide, the Divine Treasury Hall will give you a generous reward."
