In order to find out the purpose of the advanced cultivators in building this teleportation array, Ye Chen carefully sorted out all the clues and analyzed them one by one.
First of all, he could be sure of one thing: the teleportation array definitely required a huge amount of spiritual energy to power it. The spiritual energy required by the ring Lin Wan’er had given him to teleport him once was the sum of all the spiritual energy he had drained from him the previous few times.
This means that a huge amount of spiritual energy is required to move a person even just once.
Furthermore, he still couldn’t determine whether the spiritual energy required varied depending on the teleportation distance. If the teleportation was “charged” per trip, that wouldn’t be a problem. But if it was “charged” based on distance, then this kind of intercontinental teleportation would probably require hundreds of times more spiritual energy than the last time he teleported from the Champs-Élysées to the Purple Mountain Villa.
Furthermore, at that time, such a teleportation array would have had to be able to support the continuous teleportation of tens of thousands of people, with the number of teleportations per day possibly reaching tens of thousands. The spiritual energy required for this was enormous.
This proves that the cost of building and maintaining this teleportation array was extremely high, even for them at that time, it was a huge expense.
This is very similar to the development of a country’s infrastructure. If a country doesn’t go to the trouble of building extremely difficult and expensive highways or railways, then it must have very high strategic objectives, and it’s far from simple: building and opening roads for traffic.
Therefore, they must have had their own strategic goals when building this teleportation array.
The successor may be just a vessel.
Thinking of this, Ye Chen suddenly had a flash of inspiration. He suddenly realized that they had built such a huge underground city in Antarctica, so how did they transport all the bluestone, white marble, gold, and wood there? These things weren’t native to Antarctica! Putting everything else aside, just take wood as an example; there wasn’t a single tree in the entire Antarctic.
Although agriculture was very advanced at that time, the level of technology and manufacturing was certainly not up to par.
The first monks to arrive in Antarctica may have been able to brave the Roaring Forties barefoot, but they certainly weren’t capable of building ships capable of carrying large amounts of building materials.
How could so much building material that shouldn’t be in Antarctica be transported there?
The answer seems obvious.
Ye Chen was sure that the building materials must have been transported there via a teleportation array.
Only in this way can enough materials to build a city be transported to Antarctica in the most efficient manner.
Besides that.
This entire underground city possesses such rich spiritual energy, and even these formations are powered by a continuous source of spiritual energy. So, what supplies this spiritual energy?
Elixir?
impossible.
Since the potion can only be absorbed by the human body, it cannot be used directly to power the formation.
Therefore, there may only be one possibility: spirit stone.
In addition, the number of spiritual stones is very large.
Just like the stone of peace and wealth that I received at that time.
The letters were probably carved by later generations who did not understand them.
The essence is a spiritual stone filled with spiritual energy.
Even before the Age of Dharma Latter, the world contained spiritual energy.
Moreover, after hundreds of millions of years of evolution, the Earth has also nurtured spiritual stones that are rich in spiritual energy.
Spiritual stones are to spiritual practitioners what uranium ore is to nuclear physics—both are gifts from nature to humanity.
However, spirit stones are a non-renewable resource. When the Dharma Era ends, these stones will undoubtedly become the target of fierce competition among cultivators. These nine teleportation arrays scattered throughout the world are likely the channels they use to obtain spirit stones during that time.
Moreover, considering the enormous human and material resources these cultivators expended to migrate to the Antarctic continent, they must have made the decision to migrate after the arrival of the Dharma-Ending Age, with the goal of establishing a cultivation utopia in the Dharma-Ending Age and using almost all the country’s resources to offset the negative impact of the Dharma-Ending Age.
If this speculation is true, then they must have searched for spiritual stones all over the world before or after they went to Antarctica, because they needed a large number of spiritual stones to maintain the smooth operation of the underground city and meet the cultivation needs of tens of thousands of cultivators there.
In this way, the existence of the teleportation array can be reasonably explained.
Ye Chen already had a hypothetical scenario in mind.
In the underground city, while most cultivators were fully engaged in secluded cultivation and trying to improve their cultivation level, a group of cultivators, like worker ants, were constantly traveling to various parts of the world through teleportation arrays to find resources and spiritual stones for their mother nest.
They scour the world for precious spiritual stones and continually transport them back here. When there are no enemies, they diligently mine and search for treasures. If they encounter enemies, they quickly gather a large number of cultivators to provide support. Enemies are no match for them because they lack such a large number of cultivators, nor do they possess such extensive infrastructure and global deployment capabilities.
Even if they were temporarily at a disadvantage in certain areas, it didn’t matter. Their teleportation array was protected by powerful formations, like the safest refuge. Once inside, enemies without the spells to activate the formations would be completely helpless.
Ye Chen even believed that their teleportation array had never faced any threats over the years, because the compass only had nine positions, and the teleportation arrays corresponding to those nine positions were all still intact.
Ye Chen also believed that the cultivators, who were like worker ants, would not complain, because everything was based on a perfect, utopian framework: everyone for me, and I for everyone. While they cultivated, I would protect them and provide them with the necessary support so they could focus on their cultivation. And when I completed a phase of my mission, some of them would awaken and take over my work, allowing me to cultivate in peace.
Ye Chen couldn’t help but yearn for a society where tens of thousands of people worked together, sharing both success and failure. He also deeply admired the founder of this system. What kind of courage and charisma must he possess to motivate tens of thousands of people to achieve such a grand and extraordinary blueprint?
Unfortunately, the monks left no written records after they left.
They probably never imagined that someone else would come after they left.
Moreover, in that era of Dharma decline, the strength of the cultivators would only grow weaker and weaker, and it was unlikely that anyone would be able to break through the utopia they had built with the strength of tens of thousands of top-level cultivators.
But then another problem arose.
Even Wu Bolin, who has a higher cultivation level, can’t enter this place. How can I get in?
Why does the formation here seem so naturally friendly to me? Not only did it allow me in, but it also taught me the techniques and spells for the teleportation formation.
What is the difference between me and Wu Bolin?
Ye Chen racked his brains and considered three possibilities.
First, it is about the destiny of someone who is on the rise;
Secondly, it was the ring that Lin Wan’er gave to herself;
Third, there is something mysterious that led me here.
