Chapter 258: Thoughts
“Finally finished.”
Fang Ping’an glanced at the body within the newly created world and said lightly.
Next, he would engage in a great battle with the Green Demon Worm. He had been preparing for this fight for many days, putting in a lot of effort. As long as he succeeded, he would obtain the body of a spirit beast from the fairyland.
Of course, he wouldn’t let his guard down against the Spirit Horn Clan either. After eliminating the Green Demon Worm, his true form would return to the Land of Three Cities and maintain the maximum number of Black Pervasive Worms. This was his trump card against the Spirit Horn Clan.
Although the Spirit Horn Clan was one of the top forces in this world, they had very few members. They couldn’t eliminate the vast number of Green Demon Worms, so it would be the same for the Black Pervasive Worms.
If they made any moves, Fang Ping’an would strike the Spirit Horn Clan members first. He didn’t believe that those top-tier warriors would not fear heavy casualties.
Furthermore, there was also an enemy lurking nearby, so they didn’t dare to take action.
The longer he stayed in this world, the more Fang Ping’an felt that it held many secrets.
Just like the organization behind Cheng Xuan, they had been operating for hundreds of years, and their strength was unimaginable. There was also the contract he had signed with the Spirit Horn Clan.
The moment he signed his name, he could feel a powerful gaze, as if a god was watching him.
Fang Ping’an couldn’t determine if the other party was a deity, but one thing was certain: the person behind that gaze was formidable, possibly standing at the pinnacle of this world.
He didn’t know how strong Lang Xiangwang was, but the person behind that gaze must be of his caliber.
The peak would be the Immortal Beast Master.
Currently, this world didn’t have that level of power.
Although a world was continuously developing, it was difficult for this world to return to its past glory, or rather, its peak. This was a strange phenomenon.
One couldn’t help but suspect that there was a mastermind behind the scenes, suppressing the entire world.
Fang Ping’an believed that the environment here was excellent, and the spiritual energy in the air was rich. It should have already given birth to experts with the power of an Immortal Beast Master. However, that wasn’t the case yet.
Of course, all of this had nothing to do with Fang Ping’an. He wasn’t the kind of person who enjoyed delving into the world’s secrets. Doing so would only lead to a quicker death. Understanding one’s own strength was the right path.
In comparison, there might be stories to uncover behind the scenes of the Green Demon Worm. Fang Ping’an would handle this matter with caution as well. What if those worms spoke of an all-powerful Emperor? He would undoubtedly suffer a more miserable death.
Having traveled from the concealed underground to the outside, Ju Hong had already gathered his men and was preparing to attack the Green Demon Worm’s nest. It was just dawn, the perfect time to launch the assault.
According to Fang Ping’an’s plan, this battle would be a test to see how formidable the Green Demon Worm’s main base was. Once he understood the opponent’s strength, he could better plan for future battles.
Fang Ping’an looked at the Spirit Horn Clan members next to him, as well as his ten thousand bodies. He didn’t hide them and released them directly.Dealing with the Green Devil Worm can’t be effectively concealed, and it’s unclear whether the enemy can be eliminated. However, Fang Ping’an still has some confidence.
Compared to when he first arrived in this world, he has brought his strength to such a high level through repeated operations, which is completely different from before.
Many of his ideas have been realized, such as quickly creating corpses instead of searching for the carcasses of spiritual beasts in the wild, which is a waste of time and cannot be brought to other worlds.
Now, it’s difficult to say whether the corpses created by Fang Ping’an can be brought back to the Cycle Hall, but there is still hope.
Speaking of which, the corpses he created are actually his projections, and these projections are made of his flesh and blood, completely identical and unchanging.
The teleportation mechanism of the Cycle Hall can allow Fang Ping’an’s true body to leave without any changes to anything on it.
In fact, he has already tried wearing a different set of clothes and was able to bring them back to the Cycle Hall.
It worked, which means the Cycle Hall maintains some rules. This also means that if the clothes he is wearing are spirit artifacts, they can also be brought back to the Cycle Hall.
In fact, Fang Ping’an had spent a lot of time having Liangzhu build mechas because he wanted to bring them back. It’s difficult to say if he can wear the mecha, as it is not just a piece of clothing—it requires taking off the clothes underneath and completely wearing the mecha.
As for other things, such as what is in the pockets of the clothes, they cannot be brought back to the Cycle Hall. If it’s not a complete entity, it cannot succeed.
It’s like a strict set of rules with no flexibility, which has given Fang Ping’an room for imagination.
If he can really bring the mecha back, his true strength will also increase significantly. It is a powerful tool that can greatly enhance his strength, and there is no need to worry about the mecha being damaged with Liangzhu by his side.
Fang Ping’an doesn’t hold high hopes for bringing the mecha back; it’s just a small wish. If it can’t be brought back, it’s not a big deal. He can have Liangzhu build another one in the mission world.
For him, it’s not difficult, but the materials may be hard to find at that time.
The materials for the mecha currently come entirely from the Holy City of Liangzhu, so they are definitely of very high quality.
There may not be alternatives in other worlds. Not every world is a peaceful place; there may also be apocalyptic worlds.
These are all very likely.
Fang Ping’an has never believed that the mission world is a place of kindness. Even in this world, if it weren’t for his corpse control ability, his ability to regenerate energy, and his invincible golden finger, survival would be very difficult.
He doesn’t know how the Cycle Hall determines which world the reincarnators should enter. Perhaps it is based on Fang Ping’an’s combat power, or perhaps it is random, but the mission world is still challenging.
For most reincarnators, they must complete the tasks given by the system without dying.
And most of these tasks are extremely difficult, which leads to a high possibility of failure for reincarnators.
Most of them cannot grow, nor can they reach high levels.
According to Fang Ping’an’s investigation, the Cycle Hall appeared very early in his world. It has always been recruiting people to perform dreadful tasks and play in unfamiliar worlds.
Fang Ping’an cannot know what the Cycle Hall gains from this process, or if it is just a toy for the strong, but he only knows that the Cycle Hall definitely doesn’t care about the lives of the reincarnators.They are just a group of tools, and even the higher-level reincarnators are the same, just more outstanding.
The Reincarnation Hall doesn’t care about their deaths.
Fang Ping’an also wants to leave the Reincarnation Hall, but it’s difficult. This organization that can traverse worlds must have incredibly powerful people behind it, possibly even at the level of Dao Ancestors.
As a small character like him, it would be good enough to just not die.
For the future, Fang Ping’an can only try his best to ensure his own survival. He is currently only at the Qi Refining stage, which is the lowest level.
He doesn’t know how long it will take for him to overcome the tribulation and become an immortal. Maybe then he can control his own destiny, but Fang Ping’an isn’t sure.
He just wants to live on, after all, he has infinite lifespan. It would be the biggest joke if he died in a mission world.
Looking at the many transmigrators throughout history, Fang Ping’an’s “golden finger” is also extremely powerful. When utilized well, it can be said to make him invincible.
However, the path of the reincarnator is different from other paths. It is filled with more danger and it’s harder to guarantee one’s own life. Having a golden finger doesn’t mean much if luck is slightly worse, death could still occur.
Thinking about all this, Fang Ping’an continues to follow the team.
After a while, it is almost noon when everyone finally reaches the Green Devil Worm Nest. The location is indeed quite far, requiring them to traverse almost half of the wilderness.
It is the strength and speed of the Lingjiao tribe that is commendable. Otherwise, it would take a whole day just to travel.
That would be the most annoying part, setting off during the day and only arriving at night.
It is currently noon, and Fang Ping’an doesn’t waste any time. He leads everyone into the Green Devil Worm Nest. Of course, his true self won’t enter first, only the spirit corpses go in for now.
He still needs to observe and determine the true strength behind the green-haired worm, which is a question mark.
This race that seems like an extraterrestrial species, Fang Ping’an is willing to use his biggest imagination to judge.
If the opponent’s strength is too strong, Fang Ping’an will certainly be in danger, which is not good.
He surveys his surroundings, continuously keeping his detection technique active. As long as there are insects attempting to surround them from behind, he will immediately seek a position to escape.
With the Lightning Boots built by Liangzhu, his speed is undeniably fast, to the point where he can leave behind a streak of light on the ground, making it difficult to catch sight of his figure.
This makes Fang Ping’an feel like the Flash, although his speed is somewhat lacking.
Furthermore, when his cultivation realm rises, his speed will become even faster.
Although cultivators focus on refining spiritual energy, their bodies are not strong. However, when combined with spiritual energy, they can produce powerful effects, not to mention if they can obtain some spiritual artifacts or other equipment, it would further ensure their safety.
Unfortunately, the various mission worlds are not closely related to cultivation, so he can only experience the illusionary immortal realms. Fang Ping’an indulged himself and explored various aspects of cultivation.
Although that immortal realm was fake, it appeared real to the people inside, making it particularly useful in certain situations.
If he could randomly encounter a flourishing world, he would definitely be able to enhance his strength faster and reach new heights.The world right now is actually pretty nice and suitable for Fang Pingan, but there are still some differences in the paths.
These differences slow down Fang Pingan’s progress and make it almost futile. The system of beast tamers also has great prospects.
Beast taming immortals are incredibly powerful. If Fang Pingan could cultivate as one, he would definitely give up cultivation. Unfortunately, it’s not something he can decide, as he lacks spiritual energy in his body and cannot abandon his cultivation realm.
I don’t know why the Reincarnation Hall introduced such a method. It would be so much better if the reincarnators could find their own paths in different worlds.
Recently, Fang Pingan has also been studying how to obtain a powerful body.
He suddenly realized that maybe he didn’t need a body, but a clone would be better.
Just like the clones made by Cheng Xuan, which can cultivate to become beast tamers, Fang Pingan’s clones can naturally do the same.
For high-end combat power, the upper limit of the control corpse technique is not enough to satisfy Fang Pingan’s needs.
If his self-created clones can also cultivate, maybe he can let them cultivate the path of beast tamers. It would be better than his own progress, as he won’t encounter various limitations.
Of course, strictly speaking, the cultivation path promoted by the Reincarnation Hall is still quite fast. It would be a long process to make a clone stronger than oneself.
The question of whether all this is worth it or not remains.
Fang Pingan has the Primordial World, which might make this possible.
The five-fold time difference might make the clones useful.
But it’s unknown whether the clones can enter the Reincarnation Hall. If not, his efforts would be in vain. So, for Fang Pingan, slowly strengthening clones is not desirable.
He needs a way to rapidly improve his strength.
The cultivation time for beast tamers is not short, and it takes a considerable amount of time to advance realms. Some people spend their whole lives without reaching the final realm, and they might even be completely stuck at a low realm.
This path also requires talent, and the clones created may not necessarily have good talent.
Moreover, each clone cannot be made quickly; they have a long creation process.
Compared to creating bodies, it’s not very cost-effective.
But it’s still a direction that Fang Pingan won’t give up on. Perhaps in the future, he can create clones much stronger than himself.
Currently, the highest-level spiritual corpses are not much different from Fang Pingan’s strength. He can’t completely dominate them, but wearing a mecha gives him the power to fight.
Only when there is a difference of one major realm can one see the obvious difference between the two; otherwise, it’s not that impressive.
Fang Pingan has always valued high-end combat power, but unfortunately, the restrictions of the control corpse technique are there.
Perhaps, if the corpse’s realm is too high, it would backfire on the owner. The creators of the control corpse technique have more restrictions in this regard.
Fang Pingan cannot modify the cultivation method, so he can only accept this outcome.Not everyone is like him, able to constantly refresh his mental and physical strength.
Most of the world consists of ordinary people who find it difficult to create a unique cultivation technique.
He can only rely on himself to find a way.
Perhaps in the future, when he becomes stronger, he will have created a new cultivation technique that can rapidly create powerful corpses and achieve greatness.
This kind of cultivation technique is not impossible to achieve, it just has more prerequisites, meaning that the conditions for cultivation become more demanding.
Mental strength, as a form of power, can actually be used as energy. Fang Ping is very interested in researching this aspect.
If he can use his inexhaustible mental strength to cast spells, it will definitely be a powerful means.
Furthermore, Fang Ping is also interested in the ranking of mental strength among Beast Taming Immortals.
The Ten Thousand Beast Technique is actually a cultivation technique that anyone can practice, but also cannot practice.
He has the prerequisite of being a Beast Tamer, but it is not the only one.
If the mental strength is strong enough, he can still successfully perform the most powerful techniques of the Ten Thousand Beast Technique with just a thought, being able to control all creatures in the world.
Any creature would become his puppet with just a thought.
This sounds like a difficult technique to achieve, even the former Beast Taming Immortals did not reach this level.
