I think it's more about not having to fear death, and since they're out of the stuff they can die. They want to stockpile resources until they can successfully invade Kun Lun. At least, that's what I got from all of this.

Didn't they already have access to the gateway but instead they went there and killed everyone?

I thought it was implied that they didn't actually kill everyone in Kun Lun instead just a few monks and Danny just saw what he wanted to see? Didn't Alexandra or Gao say that to Danny?
