According to the Association's rules, mutual assistance between civilizations can't just be one-sided support; it must involve reciprocal exchanges to some extent.
However, since the Association was only established recently, everything is still being refined.
Support in the form of technology usually doesn't require much in return.
After all, sharing technology doesn't result in significant losses.
Moreover, technological cooperation and collision can bring greater inspiration and foster better development.
But now that resources from the Immortal Cultivation World are involved, it's no longer as simple as directly demanding like before.
"As things stand, the Immortal Cultivation World doesn't seem to have much demand for resources from our Interstellar World," interstellar world Shen Yu thought, frowning slightly. "If there's really nothing you need, then Gray Mist will have to serve as the payment."
The other Shen Yu figures also felt a bit troubled.
If they wanted their own Cultivation Treasure, or to even cultivate their own civilization's Cultivators, then resource demands are inevitable.
However, the Immortal Cultivation Civilization is especially powerful.
Even the Interstellar Civilization can hardly provide what the Immortal Cultivation Civilization needs, let alone the others.
In these circumstances, it seems Gray Mist is the only thing that can be offered for exchange.
But after a brief consideration, Cultivator Shen Yu suddenly spoke: "If it's something like weapons, that might be useful."
intersellar world Shen Yu was taken aback.
Weapons from the Interstellar World have an obvious characteristic: most of their attacks are limited to the material level.
They don't have much use on the Extraordinary Level.
The most notable point is that they can't attack "virtualized" beings, nor can they effectively prevent extraordinary powerhouses from evading.
When dealing with the Divine Spirits before, this weakness was fully revealed.
Even though weapons from the Interstellar Civilization could easily destroy an entire Plane, they could barely inflict any real injury on Divine Spirits.
Only after later optimization were they able to combine magic and Magic Guide technology to barely achieve lethal effects against ordinary Divine Spirits.
"The physical body of a Cultivator is still very important," Cultivator Shen Yu said. "Once the body is destroyed, even Earth Immortal will suffer serious damage. This alone makes interstellar weapons highly effective as support in battle."
Depending solely on interstellar weapons definitely won't work.
But if they're combined with a massive battle between Cultivators, things are different.
Moreover, those optimized Magic-guided Weapons from before can also pose a significant threat to True Master Level Cultivators.
In addition, there's another crucial goal.
—Only by letting Cultivators truly witness the power brought by technological advancement will they take it seriously, and thus be prompted to develop even stronger Cultivation Techniques around technology.
"Alright, if you want anything, just tell me."
Since Cultivator Shen Yu had made his stance clear, intersellar world Shen Yu naturally wouldn't refuse.
However, the other three Shen Yu could only watch enviously.
They couldn't cut in.
Martial Artist Shen Yu has basically chosen to take it easy; his world no longer faces major crises, and with Earth Evil Qi constantly emerging from underground and being converted to Primordial Energy, coupled with the rise of cultivation paths, the ongoing development of Martial Arts has become far more straightforward.
Martial Arts True Master—the Realm surpassing old Martial Arts Myth, truly achieving Longevity and undying Blood Qi—has already been deduced.
The next deduction, equivalent to the Realm of Earth Immortal, isn't too resource-intensive either.
Though it might seem less useful for now, the future is promising.
On the other hand, the Magic World, after ending the Divine Spirits and resolving the apocalypse, faced even tougher development ahead than the Martial Arts World.
Because magic and the cultivation paths of the Immortal Cultivation World don't have much in common.
The Gray Mist required to deduce further paths is still immense.
The only advantage is that magic and technology integrate more deeply; he still has a large group of excellent Mages, and with AI assistance, the pace of development isn't too slow.
As for the main body Shen Yu, when it comes to development, he's become the one facing the most difficult situation among all the worlds.
After all, the world of main body Shen Yu currently offers no advantages in terms of civilization or development paths.
The only upside is population and basic resources.
Even now, main body Shen Yu has already found four Parallel Universes, with timeframes all within about a century; some worlds have suffered greatly under apocalyptic threats, yet combined, they bring his sphere of influence to over twenty billion people.
Population means Gray Mist, means potential.
Not to mention, the promotion of Martial Arts is steadily ongoing, bringing tremendous growth to these ordinary people.
And some of the new monsters emerging in Parallel Universes also offer considerable research value.
In short, although development across all worlds has slowed down, and the value they bring can't match that of the newly emergent Immortal Cultivation World or the Interstellar World with its unknown civilization and technology, they're still progressing steadily.
Moreover, main body Shen Yu is acutely aware that his world is definitely not as simple as it currently appears.
If these monsters originate from beyond the Multiverse, it would mean there's an existence capable of crossing all heavens; whereas if they come from within the world itself, it means this Multi-Dimensional Parallel Universe is far from being just those Magicless Worlds we've discovered so far.
