My family is super strong

Zhang Zhi entered the Refining Qi Small World, and the first place he inspected was naturally Buzhou Mountain.

During this time, even when Fang Yun was busy, he would take the time to lecture to everyone on the mountain.

Looking at the increasingly dense aura on Fang Yun's body, Zhang Hui thought that if Fang Yun's main body were to lecture at that grand gathering, it was very likely that he could directly break through to the Low-Rank Divine Power Realm during the lecture!

There are still three months until that grand gathering, which is more than two years in the Small World. Hopefully, during this time, Fang Yun can deduce the Refiner path and the Xuanqing Qi cultivation method to the Low-Rank Divine Power Realm.

However, even if the deduction is unsuccessful, it doesn't matter.

After all, the number of world masters in the Human Race alone is calculated in the hundreds of millions, and the number of people below the Small Thousand Worlds is even countless.

If Fang Yun's lecture can really bring him feedback, even if it cannot allow him to advance to the Low-Rank Divine Power Realm at the grand gathering;

With the current number of Human Race world masters, it won't be long before he can quickly advance to the Low-Rank Divine Power Realm, or even a higher realm, by relying on the title of Patriarch of the Refiner path.

He also took the opportunity to check the situation of the others on Buzhou Mountain.

This Xuanqing Qi cultivation method is indeed worthy of being called a path that only the most talented Humans can cultivate.

Currently, there are already five Half-God Realm Refiners on Buzhou Mountain, and as for Legendary Realm Refiners, there are already more than a hundred.

It should be known that the Refiners who are currently cultivating the Xuanqing Qi cultivation method are not only the Refiners who were previously invincible at the same level and could exchange one for one against higher levels.

If a Half-God Realm Refiner comprehends supernatural powers such as Avatar or One Qi Transformation into Three Purities, they can already besiege and kill cultivators of the Weak Divine Power Realm who cultivate ordinary paths.

In other words, the cultivators of the Refiner path on Buzhou Mountain, even without counting Fang Yun, have five God Realm combat powers and hundreds of Half-God Realm combat powers.

This already has the strength to fight evenly with other cultivation paths within the Small World.

Of course, the Six Paths of Reincarnation path cannot be counted, after all, the evil creatures they summon are a bit too BUG.

Among the five Half-God Realm Refiners, there are three Dharma cultivators, one Body cultivator, and one Sword cultivator.

Among the hundred or so Legendary Realm cultivators, there are also more than sixty Dharma cultivators, accounting for almost half.

From the proportion of people, the aptitude of Refiners who cultivate Dharma is indeed much higher than that of the other two branches.

But that's right, most of the cultivators who initially cultivated the Refiner path, except for a few who later switched to Sword cultivation and Body cultivation, still insisted on following the Dharma cultivation branch.

And the first batch of people were the most talented batch of people in the Refiner path, so it is normal for this situation to occur.

After inspecting Buzhou Mountain, Zhang Zhi went to the Shang Country to take a look.

Many researchers in the research institute are currently absorbing and digesting the information obtained from the Technology Secret Realm last time.

Since the Small World's foundation in technology and other aspects was relatively solid before, and there was also a certain foundation in electricity and electromagnetism-related research, the absorption and research progress of the Gauss weapon-related technology was faster than Zhang Zhi had expected.

Of course, the harvest from the Technology Secret Realm last time was not just the Gauss weapon.

Another harvest was naturally the large number of robot wrecks.

Previously, due to the lack of chips and artificial intelligence-related technologies, research on artificial intelligence, or rather computers, was almost blank in both the Main World and the Small World.

Therefore, after obtaining this kind of robot that possesses a certain degree of intelligence without any extraordinary power, many researchers within the Small World were very interested in it.

Zhang Zhi, who came from Earth, naturally knew how many resources needed to be invested in the fields of computers, chips, and artificial intelligence.

However, one must eat one bite at a time, and one must take one step at a time.

The Small World has only just come into contact with the fields of computers and chips, so the initial investment will definitely not be too large.

Moreover, with the passage of time, the population within the Small World has become increasingly large. In a few decades, the population within the Small World will be fully sufficient to support comprehensive research in the Small World.

Zhang Zhi was a little worried that the research on pure technology artificial intelligence and extraordinary weapon spirits, as well as the current research on mechas that use souls to assist in driving, would overlap, which would lead to a waste of resources.

After all, a lot of manpower and material resources will definitely need to be invested in artificial intelligence.

However, after thinking about it carefully, there are still many differences between pure technology artificial intelligence and extraordinary weapon spirits, as well as the souls of the Six Paths of Reincarnation.

Moreover, artificial intelligence does not have any usage barriers and is the best choice for ordinary humans who have no way to embark on the path of transcendence.

So, in the end, he did not interfere and let things take their course.

In fact, Zhang Zhi was quite looking forward to the development of this artificial intelligence.

After all, this is a universe with extraordinary power.

Robots carrying artificial intelligence are similar to the puppet path, but the number of extraordinary technology artificial intelligence robots can easily crush any puppet path.

Countless artificial intelligence-controlled robots with various fearless and unafraid of death, possessing extraordinary abilities, are quite exciting to think about.

It has to be said that the upper limit of this extraordinary technology is really high.

The Bubu Renjia's airship needs to add a main gun in the future, and the blueprints and structure of the entire airship have undergone many changes, so construction has been suspended.

In the future, construction will continue after the layout of the entire airship has been re-planned.

As for other cultivation paths, apart from those Half-God Realm cultivators who are trying to advance to the Weak Divine Power Realm, the Immortal Cultivation and Xuanhuan paths have not changed much from before.

As for the Six Paths of Reincarnation path, there have been some not-so-small changes.

The reason for the change mainly comes from Fang Sanzang.

Fang Sanzang's advancement to the Weak Divine Power Realm has brought too much shock to other cultivators in the Six Paths of Reincarnation path.

They are still in the Legendary Realm, or even just the Extraordinary Realm, while he started cultivating with them and has now advanced to the God Realm.

Therefore, under the strong recommendation of a large number of cultivators in the Six Paths of Reincarnation path, Fang Sanzang, like Fang Yun, began to lecture.

At first, Zhang Zhi was actually a little worried about the content of Fang Sanzang's lecture.

After all, the Rebirth Mantra, strictly speaking, also carries the imprint of the Buddhist path, and he did not want things from the Buddhist path to spread within the Human Race world.

But fortunately, the main content of Fang Sanzang's lecture was his understanding and comprehension of the Six Paths of Reincarnation laws, and there was nothing related to the Rebirth Mantra.

Perhaps Fang Sanzang himself has also noticed the powers within the Rebirth Mantra that do not belong to the Six Paths of Reincarnation path?

After all, that guy's talent in the Six Paths of Reincarnation laws is too amazing.

After learning that Fang Sanzang had advanced to the God Realm, Zhang Zhi weighed it for a long time and finally opened up the Underworld to Fang Sanzang as well.

As long as Fang Sanzang is willing, he can stay in the Underworld like Yang all the time.

Moreover, since this Fang Sanzang officially entered the Six Paths of Reincarnation path after comprehending the Rebirth Mantra, it is very likely that he is the first intelligent being in this multiverse to become a cultivator of the Six Paths of Reincarnation path by relying on the Rebirth Mantra.

Therefore, the power of his Rebirth Mantra is much stronger than others.

In other words, his ability to use the Rebirth Mantra to clear various biological contaminations within the Underworld is much stronger than other beings.

With the grace of salvation, many souls within the Underworld will naturally stand on his side.

In addition, he is now a Weak Divine Power Realm cultivator and is one of the only two God Realm Six Paths of Reincarnation path cultivators in the Underworld.

As long as he can cultivate a group of Six Paths of Reincarnation path cultivators from the Refining Qi Small World with decent cultivation and abilities in the following time.

Then Zhang Zhi will not have to worry too much about a situation of one family dominating the Underworld in the future.

However, if there were no Spirit Treasure Small World, and no entanglement between Yang and the Nine-Tailed Fox, then Tang Sanzang would definitely be the number one person in the Underworld.

After inspecting the various cultivation paths, Zhang Zhi entered the Trial Tower with a thought.

With the appearance of the Human Race from the World of Demon Refiners within the Trial Tower, the number of world regions connected to the Trial Tower is increasing.

The more worlds there are, the more people will naturally want to enter the Trial Tower.

In other words, although Zhang Zhi had just upgraded the Trial Tower to the fourth level some time ago, the number of key cards generated by the Trial Tower every day is still not enough!

However, the Boundary Force required to maintain a fifth-level Trial Tower is not a small number, and Zhang Zhi does not plan to upgrade the Trial Tower again in a short period of time.

Therefore, as the Trial Tower connects to more and more world regions in the future, it is foreseeable that the key cards will become even more scarce.

This is still under the premise that Zhang Zhi has set a limit of two key cards per person, otherwise, the key cards would be even harder to come by.

Due to the scarcity of key cards, this has led to more and more cultivators from other worlds being stranded in the Trial Tower.

To this end, Zhang Zhi has had to spend points many times to open up space to provide a place to live for those stranded cultivators.

It is precisely because the space within the Trial Tower is getting larger and larger, and the number of cultivators stranded in the Trial Tower is also increasing.

The last time Zhang Zhi came in, he found that the space within the several inns used to provide accommodation for cultivators within the Trial Tower was not enough again.

After spending a lot of points to open up another space, he asked the staff to summarize the list of cultivators currently residing in the dozens of restaurants, inns, hotels, and apartments within the Trial Tower.

Subsequently, Zhang Zhi was surprised to find from the data provided to him by the staff that the number of cultivators registered to live in facilities such as restaurants in the Trial Tower has exceeded ten million!

Yes, that's right, it exceeded ten million!

He was taken aback when he saw the number written on the data provided by the staff.

He knew that there had always been many cultivators from various worlds stranded in the Trial Tower, but he never expected that there would be so many.

Therefore, the last time he left the Trial Tower, he specifically instructed the staff within the Trial Tower to conduct a questionnaire survey to find out the real reasons why those people were stranded in the Trial Tower.

Previously, because he was worried that the points for the hotel would be too high, which would lead to many Human Races from remote world regions not having enough points to wait for the card refresh time in the Trial Tower, and thus just find a place to make do.

To this end, Zhang Zhi specifically stipulated that the accommodation fee for standard rooms in all restaurants, inns, and hotels within the Trial Tower would only require one point for ten days of residence.

This can be regarded as a little help from him to those alien Human Races.

However, now that there are more than ten million people stranded in the Trial Tower, this makes him suspect that his regulations have been exploited.

This has forced him to reconsider whether the policy he formulated earlier of one point for ten nights is correct.

Among these ten million people, there must be a considerable number of people who are not stranded in the Trial Tower to wait for the key card to refresh.

If he were to increase the hotel accommodation fees and prohibit anyone from resting outside of the non-accommodation area, the number of people stranded in the Trial Tower would definitely decrease significantly!

However, before determining why there are so many people stranded in the Trial Tower, he will definitely not rashly cancel the welfare policy he formulated earlier.

As for what the reason is?

Zhang Zhi looked at the information handed over by the staff, which contained the information they had collected through questionnaires these days.

The reason why there are so many cultivators stranded in the Trial Tower should be found here.

That information was very thin, only ten pages or so.

Opening the first page, the first line is an introduction to this information.

It stated that this was the information collected by the staff who went to the hotels and inns to randomly distribute questionnaires to the residents inside for investigation over the past twenty days.

During this period, the staff distributed a total of 137,890 questionnaires, and all the cultivators were very cooperative because it was a questionnaire survey conducted by the Trial Tower staff.

The survey showed that approximately 46 percent, or 63,400, of the surveyed cultivators provided the reason that they were stranded in the Trial Tower to wait for the key card to refresh.

Behind this data is the background investigation conducted by the staff on the corresponding cultivators.

The background investigation showed that 55,200 of these 63,400 people had lived in facilities such as hotels in the Trial Tower for less than 30 days.

6,800 people had lived there for between 30 and 60 days.

1,100 people had lived there for between 60 and 120 days.

More than 200 people had lived there for more than 120 days.

Among them, 15 people had lived there for more than 360 days.

In other words, many people lied when answering the questionnaire.

It can be basically confirmed that the 55,200 cultivators who lived there for less than 30 days were stranded in the Trial Tower to wait for the key card to refresh.

And among the 6,800 people who lived there for between 30 and 60 days, some of them should have been stranded here because they did not get the key card during the last refresh.

But there must also be some people who are stranded in the Trial Tower for other reasons without leaving.

And the more than 1,400 people behind them were definitely not stranded in the Trial Tower due to the key card.

However, compared to more than 60,000 questionnaires, 2,000 wrong answers are within the acceptable range.

After reading the content of the first page, a trace of haze appeared on Zhang Zhi's face.

Setting up facilities like inns within the Trial Tower is primarily for those waiting for key cards to refresh, but in reality, less than half of the people are staying in the Trial Tower for that reason.

With some displeasure, Zhang Zhi flipped to the second page.

The second page detailed the second most common reason for cultivators staying in the Trial Tower: cultivation!

Seeing this, Zhang Zhi was taken aback, then immediately realized that these cultivators were likely mostly from the God-Becoming World region and the Demon-Refining World region.

The reason they were staying in the Trial Tower was actually to cultivate other human cultivation methods within the Trial Tower, in order to remove the deformities on their bodies and restore their original human appearance.

In the questionnaire survey, more than 25,700 responses, or nearly 20% of the cultivators, were staying in the Trial Tower for this reason.

Looking at this data, Zhang Zhi sighed softly in his heart.

These cultivators are not necessarily all staying in the Trial Tower for cultivation.

Whether it's the God-Becoming World region or the Demon-Refining World region, especially the God-Becoming World region, the cultivation environment there is hell compared to the Trial Tower.

Many of the humans staying in the Trial Tower are definitely unwilling to return to their world regions because they can't stand the harsh environment there.

But, seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages is the nature of intelligent beings. What can Zhang Zhi say or do about these people who don't want to go back?

After all, whether it's the cultivators from the God-Becoming World region or the Demon-Refining World region, they must have made many contributions to the local human race after becoming cultivators.

He has no right or position to criticize them.

Moreover, he has no way to distinguish between those who really want to cultivate in the Trial Tower and those who want to escape.

If these cultivators want to stay in the Trial Tower, Zhang Zhi will definitely not let them leave.

In fact, he is even prepared to provide them with higher welfare subsidies, because, in a sense, they are just retired veterans who have made many contributions to the human race.

After sighing softly, Zhang Zhi continued to read on.

The following information was still the background investigation done by the staff.

Among these 25,700 cultivators, approximately 24,600 are all cultivators with various deformities on their bodies.

This can basically be confirmed to be cultivators from the God-Becoming World region and the Demon-Refining World region.

There are also nearly 900 others whose appearance shows no abnormalities, and it is impossible to determine which world region they come from.

It is also impossible to determine whether these cultivators are humans from the God-Becoming World region and the Demon-Refining World region who have restored their human appearance by changing their cultivation methods.

In addition, most of these cultivators have stayed in the Trial Tower for more than 180 days, with the longest stay being nearly two years.

For these people, Zhang Zhi can definitely let them stay in the Trial Tower forever, and stay as long as they want!

After all, they are cultivators who have made considerable contributions to the human race, and their current requirements are not high, just a small room to settle down, and they can obtain everything else through the Trial Secret Realm and the Trial Tower.

After looking at the information on the second page, Zhang Zhi pondered for a long time, thinking that his previous management of the Trial Tower was still somewhat rough.

However, this is also unavoidable, because, apart from the Myriad Races World region, the Demon Lord World region, and the Heavenly Dog World region, he is not familiar with the high-level officials of the other world regions.

He also has very little communication with the humans in those worlds, and the voices and needs of the humans in those world regions cannot be conveyed to him.

After all, in name, those people have nothing to do with him.

Sighing, Zhang Zhi turned to the third page.

The reason for staying on the third page was somewhat beyond Zhang Zhi's expectations.

This information shows that approximately 10% of the surveyed population, or approximately 13,700 people, stayed in the Trial Tower because they were homeless!

In other words, these people are all refugees, refugees from various world regions who have nowhere to go.

The reason they are homeless is naturally because their world, city, or Trial Tower was occupied or destroyed by alien races or something else.

They used key cards to enter the Trial Tower in order to escape.

After entering the Trial Tower, they did not dare to use the key card again to return to their original world.

After all, their original world has been occupied by alien races or destroyed by something. If they go back through the key card, there is only a dead end.

Unable to return, they can only stay in the Trial Tower.

Seeing this, Zhang Zhi tapped his forehead lightly.

He had forgotten that his key card could also be used as an emergency shelter teleport card.

Indeed, even now, there are still Trial Towers in the Myriad Races region that have been occupied by alien races, not to mention the humans in the Heavenly Dog, Witch Clan, and God-Becoming World regions.

In a desperate situation, the cultivators in those regions can only escape to their own Trial Tower through the key card.

And because the world and Trial Tower have fallen, they cannot go back.

These are passively staying in the Trial Tower.

Of course, many of these people should also overlap with the people with the second reason, but they have a more legitimate reason to stay.

Moving his gaze back, the following is still the background investigation of the staff.

The staff collected detailed information about their world region, the world they were in before, and even the city.

From the information, more than 13,200 people did come from some lost or disconnected worlds and cities.

However, the addresses provided by hundreds of people cannot be found at all.

That is to say, either these hundreds of people are lying, or the world they are in is very remote, so that people from other worlds have never heard of it.
