There were many types of power grains in the Origin World, but all of them were innate. For example, plants, crops, and fruits which contained enormous vitality.
Another example was the flesh of vicious beasts and sea beasts which had reached a certain level of vitality. All of them were considered as natural power grains by the natives of the Origin World.
Therefore, power grain was just a general term. In fact, any substance that contained a huge amount of vitality could be regarded as power grain.
After all, they contained abundant and high concentration of nutrients. But all of the above were actually natural power grains.
There were only a few types of power grains which could be refined in large quantities after birth in the Origin World.
Croton was a type of acquired power grain which had been refined by the natives of the Origin World for countless years. Among the few types of power grains, it was the most popular and had the best performance-to-price ratio.
According to Li Yunmu's understanding in the past few days on Blue Moon Island, 90% of the flux experts in the Origin World used croton as their food.
A flux expert with the strength of fifty oxen or less would need to eat at least five to ten crotons every day to barely maintain their bodily functions without weakening them.
If they wanted to increase their physical strength, then they would need to eat even more croton every day.
If a flux expert wanted to strengthen their physical body to the limit, they would need to eat around thirty to a hundred crotons every day.
In other words, if they wanted to cultivate faster and increase the strength of their physical body, then they would need to eat far more than just five or ten crotons every day.
Rather, the lowest requirement was around thirty to a hundred, depending on the flux expert's ability to absorb power grains.
If the absorption potential was low, then thirty would be enough. If the absorption potential was high, then more than a hundred would be required.
If a person practiced a top-notch Body Tempering Technique, then even a hundred Croton Power Grains would be far from enough. He would need more. Therefore, it was no exaggeration to say that the Croton Power Grain in this world was actually a necessary food resource for the cultivation of the body.
In the mouth of the commoners of the Origin World, there was a saying that one croton was worth a ton of rice. The meaning was that the price of one croton was enough to buy a ton of rice.
Before the Dark Ages, there was a saying that the poor were scholars while the rich were martial artists.
From this, it could be seen that these words were suitable even in the Origin World.
The Origin World was so big that it was practically boundless. Practically no one could measure its end, so the number of lives it possessed was naturally endless.
It was said that the human race alone had a population of more than 300 billion in the Origin World.
And this was just the population of some cities and towns that could be investigated. As for the ones outside the wilderness, who knew how many more existed? It was impossible to verify.
But even so, there were more than 300 billion known people.
This was enough to astonish Li Yunmu. But only then did he understand why the number of flux experts among the natives of the Origin World, who possessed innately tyrannical bodies and had such a large population, was so low.
It wasn't that the natives of this world didn't have the aptitude and talent to cultivate. Rather, it was because they were too poor. The majority of them were unable to keep up with the consumption of Power Grains.
At the same time, Li Yunmu also realized why he had cultivated a supreme body refining cultivation method like Great Sun Tyrant Body Muscle Marrow Secrets as well as Devil Dragon Bone Refining Secrets on Earth.
His body had been strengthened both internally and externally, but in the end, he could only erupt with the strength of a dozen oxen.
The rules of the world seemed to have silently placed a shackle on all the living beings of the Origin World.
When the strength of a human's body broke through the limit of fifteen oxen, they would reach the limit if they didn't have the corresponding food to increase their energy.
This was the fundamental reason why Li Yunmu only possessed the strength of eighteen oxen.
It was clear that the strength of three oxen had increased unintentionally after descending to the Origin World and eating the meat of vicious beasts every day.
Thus, if he could figure out how to refine croton, it would become Li Yunmu's most important goal in the near future. It was said that the method to refine croton was in the hands of an ancient clan which had flourished for more than ten thousand years.
Li Yunmu naturally wasn't foolish enough to oppose the terrifying ancient clan of the Origin World. But if he could borrow the assistance of the system's enormous calculation ability as well as obtain the Refining Pagoda from Chaotian Sect, then he might really be able to imitate a power grain which was similar to croton.
Maybe he could really imitate a power grain that was similar to croton. He didn't need to promote this kind of power grain and make a lot of money.
He only needed to control the scope of the power grain within the territory of Blue Moon Island's subsidiary islands. That way, he would be able to use this opportunity to earn a sufficient amount of wealth.
This amount of wealth would be sufficient for him to purchase all kinds of secret methods as well as the flux points he lacked.
That's right, this was the path Li Yunmu wanted to walk. As for tormenting the masters of the first ten rooms and obtaining ten contribution points every day? That was just too ridiculous.
Only heaven knew how long he would have to wait to accumulate enough contribution points to purchase the things he needed.
After receiving the materials related to croton from the system, Li Yunmu carefully studied them, and his brows furrowed from time to time and relaxed from time to time.
The main material was the blood essence of vicious beasts which possessed a certain amount of vitality.
The ten shadows killed a large number of sea beasts every day, which was enough for the Refining Pagoda to refine them into a large amount of blood essence. This was the reason why Li Yunmu was confident in his ability to refine croton.
It wasn't because he had a transcending sage tool which was related to refining.
The Refining Pagoda which he had swindled from Chaotian Sect had nine layers altogether.
The first layer was to refine essence, the second layer was to refine energy, and the third layer was to refine spirit. As for the six layers after the third layer, since Li Yunmu's strength wasn't sufficient, he didn't have the strength to enter the fourth layer.
But even so, the first three layers of the Refining Pagoda were enough to live up to its reputation as a transcending sage tool. They were also worthy of its status, which was even higher than that of the Void Disk.
The flux ancestor had left behind three transcending sage tools in the Tower of Glory. Void Disk was placed in the twenty-fifth layer.
Serene Moon Well was placed in the fiftieth layer.
As for the Refining Pagoda, it was placed in the seventieth layer. It was regarded as a supreme among transcending sage tools. Presently, this supreme treasure had finally displayed its value.
The large amount of vicious beasts' flesh had already been taken care of, so the next thing Li Yunmu needed to deal with was the unknown mild medicinal properties which had been analyzed by the system.
Li Yunmu dared to be certain that the secret technique of refining croton was to a large extent related to the mild medicinal properties of this mixture.
