Chapter 326: Chapter 326

The question that had been haunting Qian Qi’s mind, which she couldn’t figure out, finally felt like a sudden revelation at this moment. The swiftly generated answer made her scalp tingle, all the hairs on her limbs stand on end, and a feeling of panic mixed with excitement wound around her heart, unable to fade away!

A continent bearing human traces is a world, then could a continent without human traces be another world?

If different instances correspond to different worlds, then the previous issue of magic potion formulas not being universally applicable to all magic plants, and Essence Demon Salt not preserving all Essence Demon Meat, can all be explained!

Boldly imagining, the different worlds have different material compositions. Her world has hydrogen, helium, lithium, beryllium, boron atoms, neutrons, and protons; other worlds might have another set of elemental usage and material composition methods, so naturally, the physical and chemical formulas would differ, and the research directions of various demons in nature would also differ.

All biological and chemical research cannot be separated from the basic underlying structures and rules. Just like studying physics cannot do without basic physics, and studying chemistry without basic chemistry courses, only by figuring out the basic framework of each "world" can the subsequent research on demons rapidly develop!

Indeed, Su Xingchen got straight to the point and cleared up her long-standing doubts!

Qian Qi’s lips quivered slightly with excitement, but she actually had another question. If different instances belong to different worlds, why can some instances’ magic plants share a magic formula to produce magic potions?

Is it because the basic composition of these two worlds is similar...

Or because they originally belonged to the same world?

Where do instances come from, how are they produced, and what is the truth about them—

Perhaps, as she contracts more magic beasts and conquers more underground dungeons, she will eventually find the answer.

"Commander Su." Qian Qi bent over and patted Su Xingchen’s shoulder kindly, her eyes full of approval and comfort, "You really came at the right time today; it’s definitely the most, most, most correct thing you’ve ever done in your life."

"I’m in a great mood now and can answer a question of yours for free." Qian Qi said happily, "Go ahead, think it over, there are some questions I might not answer."

Su Xingchen raised an eyebrow slightly. After thinking for a moment, he asked the purpose of his visit to Qian Qi today: "What do you think is the direction of human development in the future?"

Since learning of Qian Qi’s existence, Su Xingchen had been wondering whether humanity’s future depended on enhancing their combat power with magic potions, or relying on Beast Masters to contract high-level Guardian Beasts to deal with S-level demons, or both?

But with slow progress in magic potion research and a scarcity of Beast Masters, even if combined, Su Xingchen couldn’t predict whether S-level demons would arrive first or if human Awakeners would rise to counterattack in time.

Qian Qi stroked her chin, then grinned, "Beast Taming."

"Not magic potion?" Su Xingchen pondered. From what he knew, her understanding of magic plants far exceeded that of magic beasts.

"Low-level magic potions aside, high-level magic potions are costly, requiring the hunting of Advanced Magic Plants, making widespread distribution impossible. And things that can’t be widely distributed naturally can’t become the guiding light for the world’s progress." Qian Qi said calmly, "Magic potions can only serve as support; they can’t become mainstream. This isn’t some fantasy novel family where chewing on drugs can increase cultivation."

What’s more, there are few people who can cultivate magic plants. Although she has been nurturing them, the time is still too short, at most allowing students to return to their hometowns after graduation, providing the people with affordable and effective Blood Stopping Magic Potion and Defense Fruit.

Therefore, humanity has only the path of Beast Taming to choose.

Presumably, the system thinks the same.

Qian Qi couldn’t help but glance at the system beside her.

What kind of kindly yet annoying look is that? If you keep looking at me like that, I won’t make a deal with Su Xingchen to let you accomplish the task of National Beast Taming!

"Demons can’t be widely distributed, so they can’t become mainstream, then can Beast Taming?" Su Xingchen was both surprised and relieved that Qian Qi understood these things. Surprised that she had such vision and insight at her age, relieved that fortunately, she had experience in these areas, allowing him to communicate with her without barriers.

But what he didn’t understand was, "The number of Beast Masters seems even fewer, right? How can it become mainstream?"

"Well..." Qian Qi paced back and forth a few steps beside him, then turned and gave Su Xingchen a meaningful smile, "I have a message, and I’d like you to pass it on to Commander Sikong Lin."

Su Xingchen’s eyes flashed slightly.

Qian Qi’s words were very subtle. She was familiar with Sikong Lin, and there was no need for him to relay it, but letting him convey it now indicated she was speaking to him.

But if she was speaking to him, why did Sikong Lin also need to know?

"Please tell Commander Sikong Lin that if he wants to gain an advantage in the future Beast Taming era, he should sponsor and protect those with Advanced Spiritual Power in advance. The higher, the better, S-class is best."

Qian Qi smiled and said, "Support them to study Magic Beast Studies at Awakener University."

After speaking, Su Xingchen’s eyes grew instantly profound.

She mentioned those with Advanced Spiritual Power, not Awakeners with Advanced Spiritual Skills, suggesting she was hinting that the Beast Taming era is related to spiritual power. As it happens, humans have never understood why ordinary people also have spiritual power, just unable to use it...

If only having spiritual power was enough to tame beasts...

Wouldn’t that mean ordinary people could also tame beasts?

It is said that Qian Qi used to be just an ordinary person, so poor she could only study Magic Plant Study, but now she has become a Beast Master with an A-level Contracted Beast...

"What do you know?!" Su Xingchen stared closely at Qian Qi, with an answer almost within grasp.

"Some things are only comprehensible, not expressible." Qian Qi placed her index finger on her lips, "Tomorrow, I will visit Licheng to tour the Beast Taming Association. I’ll talk with you after understanding some situations."

Realizing something, Su Xingchen’s chest felt like a drum beating, but soon, he calmed down.

If what Qian Qi said is true, then her suggestion for Sikong Lin to sponsor advanced spiritual power users to learn about magic beasts makes sense. As for why she asked him to convey it...

Su Xingchen gazed at Qian Qi, looking at her smiling eyes that hid true emotions, making it hard not to suspect she was well aware of his past manipulation and control of his own son.

In knowing that the other party could be an all-powerful authority figure, yet revealing the role of advanced spiritual power users, she was testing to see if he would hide it from Sikong Lin, secretly controlling those powerless advanced spiritual power users, making them puppets of the Su family.

And Sikong Lin wasn’t such a person. Sikong Lin valued emotions and life more, and if it involved innocents, Sikong Lin would definitely oppose controlling those ordinary people for personal gain.

If Sikong Lin didn’t stop, or didn’t secretly support those people, it would mean Su Xingchen didn’t tell Sikong Lin and had personal motives for his family, not following her advice, and thus was unsuitable as a cooperative partner.

This girl was sharp and cautious.

"Alright, I’ll pass it on." Su Xingchen promised, "I’ll be staying in Hong City these days, hoping Mr. Qian will give me a surprise."

Qian Qi smilingly pulled out a QR code from her pocket: "Aside from the first question just now, I answered three more questions for you, totaling four million. Please make the payment, Commander~"

Su Xingchen looked down at the QR code: ...
