Chapter 2587 - 2587 Dirt Transformed into a Pearl!

2587 Dirt Transformed into a Pearl!

It turned out that lives were worth so little in the Grotto Continent! It was a luxury just to be able to live comfortably.

Or rather, it could be said that besides the elite bigshots who were able to decide if regular people lived or died, there were no normal citizens to speak of.

The average lifespan of regular citizens in the Radiance Federation was more than 90 years.

Having lived all her life in the Radiance Federation, Chu Ci did not think 90 years was especially old.

But since coming to the Grotto Continent, she found out that the regular people only lived to around 23 years of age. Any older than that and they would be seen as having a long lifespan!

She would never have believed that such a world existed without witnessing it herself.

She finally knew what it meant when people said that reading always fell short of experience.

Chu Ci did not have Creation Master talent. Suddenly, she felt she should not return to the Advanced Spirit Qi Occupation University next semester.

It was important to Cold Moon that Chu Ci received an education and knew how to act in society. According to her plan, Chu Ci would be done with the university’s cultural classes in another six months.

At university, the most that Chu Ci would be able to learn was how to interact with others and how to assimilate into the university’s environment.

She would definitely be able to grow faster by training in the Grotto Continent than she would by enjoying her life in university for the next four years.

However, Chu Ci did not make the decision for herself now and intended to talk it over with Cold Moon when she returned to the Radiance Federation. She would tell Cold Moon about her thoughts and seek her opinion.

Chu Ci was extremely respectful of her master.

Unlike Lin Yuan, Chu Ci did not have a clear memory of their parents. She had been too young, and her memories of them were very blurry. She only knew how they looked like from the photographs she had seen.

As such, she only held them figuratively in her heart.

After the time that they had spent together, Chu Ci felt something akin to parental love from Cold Moon. It was the same way that Lin Yuan felt about the Moon Empress.

Lin Yuan nodded when he heard what Chu Ci said. Given the powers of Dazzling Silver and the other four Samsara Realm Dictators, it would be child’s play for them to take control of the Grotto Continent.

Chu Ci said that Dazzling Silver had already brought Bei Xu to explore the surface. It was likely that she had already discovered the Barren Sea.

Lin Yuan contacted Dazzling Silver through the Thoughts Letter Paper, and she rushed back immediately after receiving Lin Yuan’s message.

Dazzling Silver did not bring Bei Xu back with her. Instead, she brought Wen Yu, who had accompanied her, to take a look at the Barren Sea.

She had spent enough time with Lin Yuan to know that Wen Yu played an important role in his life.

On the other hand, she only saw Bei Xu as a child who had gotten lucky enough to be picked by Lin Yuan and had his life changed.

He transformed from dirt into a pearl.

Dazzling Silver acted kindly toward Bei Xu but did not think much of him.

To dimensional lifeforms, only experts deserved respect.

Lately, Wen Yu was constantly by her side. Having Wen Yu present, Dazzling Silver refrained from vying for the opportunity to showcase herself in front of Lin Yuan. Instead, she yielded the chance to Wen Yu.

When Wen Yu saw Lin Yuan, she said, “Young Master, the Grotto Continent is indeed an underground continent. The Barren Sea completely separates it from everything else, which explains why it’s so impoverished.

“There aren’t many more resources on the surface than what the Grotto Continent already has stocked up. The ground above the Grotto Continent is very hard, and there is also a layer of extremely hard rock. Only small and short plants can survive. There’s no way that large plants will be able to extend their roots far.

“The Barren Sea is north of the Grotto Continent. The aquatic lifeforms in the Barren Sea aren’t very suited to be contracted by spirit qi professionals. I have also explored the other directions and discovered that rocks surround the area.

“To the south, the terrain becomes increasingly steep the further you go. If you head north, there are more plants, and they also become increasingly taller. Judging from how the environment has progressed, my assessment is that heading north will give us the highest chance of stumbling on other federations.”

Lin Yuan nodded. He always trusted Wen Yu’s abilities.

It could be said that Wen Yu had done all the necessary scouting within the short span of two days.

Lin Yuan had already guessed that the ground above the Grotto Continent would be very hard. Otherwise, there would have been cave-ins and sinkholes.

If cave-ins and sinkholes happened, the spirit qi professionals from the Grotto Continent would be able to reach the surface.

Lin Yuan felt that if the spirit qi professionals from the Grotto Continent were given the opportunity, they would definitely flee to the surface instead of continuing to suffer in a place devoid of sun.

The people in the Grotto Continent had very short lifespans. This was largely due to the lack of sun.

Even with access to sunlight, which aided body growth, they could still live to a minimum of 30 years while maintaining their current lifestyles and diets.

Lin Yuan did not come to the Grotto Continent to harvest resources. His goal was to find the Continent Vein Core.

Moreover, Wen Yu had only scouted the area above the Grotto Continent. She had not had the time to venture further.

They considered the possibility of a place with abundant resources on the other side of the Barren Sea.

However, one thing remained certain: this side of the Barren Sea harbored unique feys that couldn’t be found elsewhere.

At this point, the books from the abyssal and subterranean worlds had merged into complete tomes, which Lin Yuan needed to master.

From his prior experiments, Lin Yuan knew his rest period would range from a minimum of seven days to a maximum of two weeks.

This duration couldn’t be shortened. Lin Yuan opted to seize this time, while Tower Canon hadn’t yet acted, to take control of these tomes.

Once he controlled the tomes of the abyssal and subterranean worlds, he would shift his focus to the tome of the alien insect world.

“Wen Yu, I must enter seclusion underground for over a month. During this time, you will lead Dazzling Silver and the other four in scouting and managing the situation.

“I already told you about the Continent Vein Cores. Take the Abyss Red Lotus with you. It will help you to sense the location of the Continent Vein Cores. You can dig at whatever location you sense the Continent Vein Cores!”

Wen Yu did not know why Lin Yuan needed to be in seclusion for such a long time. But she did not ask and responded.
