Chapter 163: The Spiritual Practitioner’s Slate [Please vote]
Pillar awakening level?
Zhou Zhengde was confused and couldn't digest the news for a while.
Wang Jixuan nodded calmly and asked a little puzzled: "How do you determine the level of the pillar's awakening?"
"Three indicators.
"One indicator is the degree of concentration of spiritual energy in the body. The spiritual energy of a sleeping pillar-level blade beast is scattered in every corner of the body. There are three to five huge cores. When they start to wake up, the spiritual energy will converge towards these cores."
Fu Jian explained briefly: "One indicator is similar to a brain wave detection method, but the brain waves of blade beasts are different. Please ask the technical staff for details.
"Then there is the exchange of information between the pillar-level blade beast and nearby blade beasts. This is the most important indicator.
"We divide the awakening degree of blade beasts into three stages. 24% are those with a tendency to wake up and spiritual energy begins to gather, 52% are those that enter the awakening cycle and start exchanging information with nearby blade beasts, and 80% are about to wake up.
"The highest level we've detected over the past two decades was 52%, stage two."
Wang Daochang lowered his head to think about it, and took a bite of the squid. He felt that... the taste of this thing was stronger than that of bladed beast meat, but it was limited.
[After the blade beasts defeated human civilization and occupied most of the surface, the twelve pillar-level blade beasts fell asleep in different areas. 】
The Taoist priest asked again: "Have humans ever had a head-on confrontation with a pillar-level blade beast?"
"Well, the twelve pillar-level blade beasts have different shapes. Each of them has only shown one side in history. We were defeated miserably every time."
Fu Jian said seriously: "Those huge urban circles created in the golden age of mankind were all directly destroyed by pillar-level blade beasts in different areas.
"After they destroyed the main body of human civilization, they took the main blade beast group and slept underground.
"So far, we have never won a war involving pillar-level blade beasts.
"At this stage, all the efforts made by human civilization in the fortress era are to produce armaments. In our limited occupied area and limited resources, we are using limited resources to produce various armaments. We are desperately manufacturing nuclear weapons, but we do not dare to counterattack at all... This is the powerful deterrent power of the pillar-level blade beast.
“Currently, strategic nuclear weapons in all major war zones have quotas and cannot be used indiscriminately. Only small-yield tactical nuclear weapons can be used.
"Most of the strategic-level nuclear weapons are gathered in the space fortress in order to deal with the possible disaster of the Pillar-level Blade Beast."
Wang Jixuan frowned and asked, "Didn't you try to blow them up while they were sleeping?"
"It is deep underground, and it is covered with high-level blade beasts from top to bottom."
Fu Jian shrugged, continued to stir-fry noodles with skillful movements, and said calmly: "Many high-level blade beasts have the combat power of a sub-general. You can't imagine what it would be like to charge a hundred thousand high-level blade beasts.
"The group of king-level blade beasts currently active on the edge of our war zone are just their fringe forces. They generally only have basic and mid-level blade beasts."
"Then there's no need to fight at all."
Wang Jixuan picked up a tissue and wiped his mouth. He looked at the movements of the three teams in the holographic sand table and thought for a while.
The little he has brought out at this stage seems to be far from enough.
In the future, Wang Jixuan will continue to find something in his own Immortal Cultivation Civilization technology tree that can adapt to modern technology and can be a sufficient deterrent to the top blade beasts' combat power, and share it with the D5 War Zone.
This is mainly to give human civilization a sense of participation in counterattacking the blade beasts.
Wang Jixuan urged: "Let's go take a look at those slates first. When they come back, I will have class again."
Fu Jian clicked his tongue: "Why don't I feel any pressure on you?"
"It's never the bladed beast that brings pressure to me," Wang Jixuan smiled confidently, "it's about whether I'm strong enough and whether I can become stronger."
"Can you?"
"Keep it secret."
Fu Jian put the fried noodles on the plate in front of Wang Jixuan and Zhou Zhengde, raised his fist and popped out his middle finger.
Wang Jixuan's face was filled with disgust.
Zhou Zhengde lowered his head silently and frowned.
Zhou Zhengde has discovered...
Maybe, at some point, he will no longer be Wang Zheng's most important male friend, and the guy who takes away this crown may be his life idol and direct blood relative!
……
In front of looking at those stone slabs, Wang Jixuan was asked to put on his iconic black helmet.
Fu Jian took him and Zhou Zhengde to a nearby warehouse, which was under full martial law. A dozen old men in white coats were waiting early, lining up and applauding to welcome them.
"They have studied these tablets in the past and are authorities in their respective fields."
Fu Jian briefly introduced both parties:
"This is Black Storm, the messenger of alien civilization and the suspected savior of human civilization.
"Well, you don't have to worry. These dozen old men and women are equivalent to scientific research prisoners. Their brains are valuable assets of human civilization, and the risk of leaks is extremely low."
A dozen old people each smiled.
They don't mind this level of teasing.
These old people gathered around them, shook hands with Wang Jixuan enthusiastically, and kept saying:
"I've heard your story! Black Storm!"
"Don't think we are locked in the laboratory. In fact, all the interesting information will be sent over for us to study and analyze."
"I made the prediction chart of your power growth trajectory. I predicted at that time that you are a special psyker who can grow, and you are more advanced than other psykers!"
"I've long been disgusted by those psykers. Well done!"
"Thank you from the bottom of my heart for providing us with a new track to cheat money!"
"Hello Black Storm, can you share your special paper? We can only study that you used the blood of the Blade Beast to change the internal structure of the paper and add surface and internal psychic pathways to them, but we follow the photos The imitation symbols have no effect at all, why is that?”
"Why can your spiritual power increase?"
"Everyone!"
Wang Jixuan's figure swayed, leaving behind two afterimages that appeared on the outside of the circle surrounded by this group of old people.
He reminded: "Let's look at today's key points first. If there is a chance later, we can find a place to make tea and discuss Taoism. But today, time is really limited."
Zhou Zhengde quickly explained: "There is a battle going on outside. The six directions of the front line are about to deal with eight king-level blade beast groups attacking at the same time. We must seize the time to train new tactics for the half-human mecha team!"
A group of old people looked disappointed, but they all said they understood.
Fu Jiandao: "Let Director Chen introduce it later. Please take out all the slates you are responsible for researching and put them in order."
A dozen top scientific researchers turned around and started busy.
In order to keep it secret, they also have to do some hard work.
Soon, a total of one hundred and twenty stone slabs were placed on the steel frame.
Each stone slab is 33 centimeters long, 20 centimeters wide, and 5 centimeters thick. There are simple reliefs on it. Some reliefs are ancient fonts, and some reliefs are part of a picture.
Chen Wuchou, director of the D5 Arms Research Center, an old professor of medium height and peaceful appearance, gave a brief introduction: "The material of these stone slabs is very special and difficult to damage. We worked hard to cut them. I took out a tiny corner for testing, and the results showed that the molecular structure inside was very ordinary, like... clay? Mud?
“But the stone slab has incredible properties.
“The Commander-in-Chief brought this thing back fifty years ago, and I was one of the interns on the research team at that time.
"I clearly remember that the people in the Psychic City tried to take back these slates at all costs. Later, in order to deceive them, we developed a new material to simulate the characteristics of this slate and blew up the fake slate in front of them. ...Those brainless guys actually believed it and stopped looking for these stone slabs.
“In fact, according to our estimates, even the use of tactical nuclear bombs cannot completely destroy these weird things.
"It can even be sent to the surface of the sun without melting."
Wang Jixuan nodded, his eyes behind the helmet showing some confusion.
He had not seen these symbols.
He can say with certainty that this thing has nothing to do with the practice world in his hometown.
However, the use of spiritual energy, that is, Qi, should have something in common. Fu Jian said: "Everyone give Black Storm some space and go to the conference room to wait. Zheng De will go and pour some hot water for you, grandparents."
"Okay grandpa, this way, everyone!"
Zhou Zhengde quickly got into the mood and began to accept the "accidentally friendly" compliments from these researchers.
A projection screen popped up on Fu Jian's robotic arm. He slid slightly, and a dozen autonomous robots were activated in the corner of the warehouse, moving forward to obey orders.
Director Chen put his hands behind his back and tried to observe Wang Jixuan's expression and eyes, but was blocked by his helmet.
Wang Jixuan asked: "You have been studying for decades, and you only study materials?"
"No," the white-haired Director Chen smiled confidently, "It's just that there were so many people just now that it was inconvenient to show... Commander-in-Chief, is that okay?"
"Otherwise?" Fu Jian responded angrily, "Did I ask you to come here today just to drink hot water?"
More than a dozen autonomous robots worked forward, changing the positions of the individually numbered stone slabs, and lifting the steel frames together and juxtaposing them.
A gray-white incomplete wall appeared in front of Wang Jixuan.
After years, it remains as new as ever.
The wall, which is tilted due to the angle of the steel frame, is generally complete, with only two corners missing. Viewed directly, it looks like a three-dimensional map with numerous peaks and complex three-dimensional structures.
But when Director Chen squatted behind the wall with a strong flashlight, he shined a light toward the center of the wall...
The light seemed to penetrate a layer of gauze, and a three-dimensional projection appeared two meters in front of the wall.
Wang Jixuan saw the exquisite dynamic picture scroll.
The main subject of the painting is a sparkling sea. The waves wash over the silver-white beach. Two discs, one large and one small, hang on the horizon. A towering silver spire can be seen in the distance.
Director Chen called an autonomous machine and asked the latter to hold the flashlight steadily. He was already in his seventies and rushed back to Wang Jixuan with excitement.
"Look! A brand new projection technology! A completely different technical route from our human technology!"
Wang Jixuan:......
No, this thing obviously contains some kind of formation!
Why is it projection technology?
He asked: "What about other research results?"
"Well," Director Chen smiled awkwardly, "There are only these. Other research routes have hit a wall. Research on this thing has actually been stagnant for more than thirty years. We have assigned it to a few laboratories that we can trust. Each one is working on the problem, and there is no back-up voice..."
Fu Jian said: "Can you see anything?"
"It is an object for spiritual practitioners, and it is a relatively important thing."
Wang Jixuan carefully covered the object with his spiritual consciousness, sensed it carefully, and said casually:
"Since we all know that under the church where the Six Elders were trapped are the remains of spiritual practitioners, and you took this thing from the Six Elders, and they attach great importance to it, it must be very important."
Fu Jian nodded.
Director Chen frowned and asked: "No, wait a minute, since we all know...why don't I know? Commander-in-Chief Fu Jian, are you still hiding information from me?"
Fu Jian cleared his throat: "There are relics of spiritual practitioners under the residence of the Six Elders. This is information we just learned more than ten years ago. I haven't had time to share it with you yet. After all, we know nothing about spiritual practitioners."
Director Chen pinched his waist with his left hand and held his forehead with his right hand, and couldn't help but complain: "Okay, ten, a few, years, years ago, these four words, when combined with the word [Gang], don't go against each other at all!"
"The theater has not made any efforts in this area in order to allow everyone to focus on the development of new weapons."
Wang Jixuan smiled and smoothed things over: "Only relying on technology can we fight against blade beasts. This is the creed that Commander-in-Chief Fu Jian has always emphasized to me."
Director Chen smiled with relief, and Fu Jian nodded seriously.
"Um?"
Wang Jixuan suddenly frowned, and his spiritual sense noticed something strange.
He jumped directly over the stone slab, landed behind it, and squatted down to watch carefully.
It's the other way around.
The front without any traces of carving is the front, and the relief on that side is more like a decoration.
It cannot be seen with the naked eye or with instruments, but it can be seen with spiritual consciousness. The walls contain extremely complex and extremely delicate spiritual energy pathways. This spiritual energy pathway is similar to the restriction of magical instruments in their practice world.
Construct pathways to allow spiritual energy to pass through, thereby stimulating various efficiencies.
However, the logic of these pathways is completely different from the restrictions on magical instruments in the world of cultivation.
This is a brand new weapon refining route for Wang Jixuan!
This thing has extreme precision, just like... Reiki uses integrated circuit boards, uses 'qi' as energy, and uses methods similar to human technological civilization to release the energy in 'qi'!
Then, what is the function of this thing?
Psychic infusion? Psychic advancement?
Wang Jixuan compared carefully.
The wall in Ji Xiao's memory had obvious crystal core inlay holes. Compared with this wall, it was obviously rougher.
He raised his hand to touch it, but resisted the urge.
This thing is unknown, so don't be careless.
His spiritual sense was carefully exploring these stone slabs, and Wang Jixuan was also thinking seriously.
Ten minutes later, the three groups of students he sent returned to the fortress one after another. Fu Jian suppressed the news for the time being, not wanting to disturb Wang Jixuan's research.
Unexpectedly...
"They are back. I saw them here first today and have to go back to class first."
Wang Jixuan turned around from behind the wall and said simply:
"Get a pen and paper and write down what I said.
“First of all, the direction is wrong, the smooth one is the front.
"Hang this upright and don't move it. The current arrangement is correct. The picture on this side will help you a lot.
"The second thing is that the structure of this thing is very exquisite. The two missing corners do not affect its operation. Its main functions should be concentrated in the central circular area. I don't know what the meaning of the patterns and projections on the front is for the time being. Art The value is quite high.
"I don't know exactly what it does, but I should be able to inspire it."
Fu Jian asked: "Then why not stimulate it directly now?"
Wang Jixuan couldn't help but pursed his lips: "Who knows if it will explode! What if it activates a moving formation and moves us directly away?"
Fu Jian muttered: "Why do you, a young man, have more worries than an old man like me?"
Director Chen quickly asked: "Can you tell us the stimulation method? We will arrange the experiment."
"Okay, it's very simple."
Wang Jixuan said:
"Get a hydraulic press and crush thirty pure crystal cores near it, the kind without the remnant soul of the blade beast, and you will find some wonderful reactions.
“To put it bluntly, it’s the concentration of spiritual energy.
"But you must be careful not to touch it. Keep living people away from it. It is best to prepare weapons of mass destruction. This thing may really be teleportation... Well, teleportation means teleportation.
"It might actually be a portal."
After saying this, Wang Jixuan patted Xiao Chen's shoulder naturally and said seriously:
"Alien civilization does exist, and it's obvious that this thing is it."
He turned around and was about to leave. Fu Jian had already turned on the map projection and started looking for a suitable test site. Director Chen's eyes shone a little brightly.
At this time;
Buzz!
The wall made of stone slabs suddenly shook slightly, and Wang Jixuan heard a vague call next to his ears.
"Save...save me..."
