Chapter 1125 - 1225: Not Enough

But Ye Tianfan had yet to realize this.

Although Ye Tianfan was aware that his Chaos Treasure Lotus possessed the ability to transform energy, he had already devoted all his attention to converting the negative energy outside the walls, like demonic qi and evil qi, and forgot what they actually needed at this moment.

When encountering external creatures, if Ye Tianfan were to directly convert all the demonic qi and evil qi in front of him into pure spiritual power, those wall-external creatures would instantly perish.

Because Ye Tianfan could convert an immense amount, if they relied solely on Taichu Zhenren's research, they'd only manage to use a tiny portion, whereas using the Chaos Treasure Lotus's transformation would instantly dissolve them.

Ye Tianfan's energy transformation could convert everything around those wall-external creatures into pure spiritual power, and even the smallest amount of pure spiritual power could gradually corrode those creatures.

If it were a massive amount of pure spiritual power, it would be like throwing a pig into a container full of sulfuric acid.

The pig would quickly corrode, and Ye Tianfan could produce a large quantity of pure spiritual power, so even if they encountered Shifang realm wall-external creatures, Ye Tianfan wouldn't be afraid.

After all, when Ye Tianfan previously believed that the pure spiritual power they researched couldn't deal with Shifang realm creatures, it was because the amount was too small, whereas Ye Tianfan could summon enough to gradually erode away the bodies, then the bones, of Shifang realm wall-external creatures, making Ye Tianfan the strongest among them.

However, Ye Tianfan was still unaware, and this pure spiritual power wasn't just useful against wall-external creatures but was even more effective against internal cultivators. Ye Tianfan could kill even Taichu Zhenren whether he converted large amounts of demonic qi or pure spiritual power.

After all, Taichu Zhenren wasn't immune to pure spiritual power. Although he could resist for a while, the time he bought would still be enough for Ye Tianfan to kill him.

Moreover, if Ye Tianfan were to die, as long as Taichu Zhenren avoided the areas covered by pure spiritual power or negative energy like demonic qi, he would be unharmed.

But if Ye Tianfan dealt with Hundred Confluences realm cultivators or demon beasts, he could definitely eliminate them with certainty.

After all, Hundred Confluences realm cultivators or demon beasts were not as enduring as Shifang realm ones, as the latter could withstand pure spiritual power for longer.

But cultivators or demon beasts below Shifang realm strength would instantly evaporate.

After all, those at the Hundred Confluences realm still had a vast gap from the Shifang realm, a gap even larger than that between heaven and earth.

After encountering the first wave of wall-external creatures, Ye Tianfan and others solved it perfectly, encountering about three waves of wall-external creatures in total, all wiped out by the pure spiritual power.

Although Ye Tianfan and the others used pure spiritual power to perfectly destroy the wall-external creatures, they found that despite the quick efficiency of using pure spiritual power, the number of appearing wall-external creatures was also increasing.

Gradually, Ye Tianfan calculated, with about seven or eight pure spiritual power granules left, each encounter with wall-external creatures required consuming at least one, meaning Ye Tianfan could face only about seven more waves, losing all pure spiritual power granules.

Moreover, when encountering these three waves of wall-external creatures, the intervals weren't long, with less than a day between the second and third waves of creatures.

This meant that the seven or eight pure spiritual power granules couldn't last long, possibly not even a week.

During their encounter with the third wave of wall-external creatures, Ye Tianfan used up three pure spiritual power granules, suggesting that if the next wave was large, Ye Tianfan and the others wouldn't last for many more waves.

After calculating this, everyone remained silent, knowing that without pure spiritual power, they couldn't expand occupied territories and might have to return those they had conquered.

Without the ability to invade and expand territory, holding the defense wasn't possible, as once the external creatures could break their array, they'd have no way to defend, only to watch wall-external creatures destroy the arrays, so everyone unconsciously slowed their steps and weren't as eager to invade further territories quickly.

With too many invasions, they couldn't defend themselves, and they needed to reserve some pure spiritual power granules for self-defense when danger arose, at least maintaining some resistance.

Without any resistance, encountering wall-external creatures would lead to heavy casualties.

Wall-external creatures killing Ye Tianfan and the others without pure spiritual power would be as easy as slaughtering small chickens.

At this moment, everyone looked at Taichu Zhenren, unsure of what to do next, and Ye Tianfan looked at Taichu Zhenren as well, pondering that if pure spiritual power ran out, other teams would likely also run out.

If everyone ran out of pure spiritual power, and Taichu Zhenren didn't continue to make more, they couldn't proceed further.

Of course, if Taichu Zhenren continued producing these things, they could still progress.

But Taichu Zhenren strongly refused to produce more pure spiritual power.

With the thought of producing pure spiritual power, unpleasant memories immediately surfaced for Taichu Zhenren.

And Ye Tianfan was also quite puzzled about what was required for production that caused such avoidance by Taichu Zhenren and others. Though Ye Tianfan's curiosity piqued, he wouldn't inquire out of respect for privacy.

Even though he was very curious, the saying "curiosity killed the cat" was well known, so Ye Tianfan restrained his curiosity about how Taichu Zhenren made pure spiritual power, with everyone else also holding back their curiosity, waiting for someone impulsive to inquire.
