Capítulo 584: Chapter 525: Fubao Relic and Blockade
Within the Taiqing Realm.
Inside the illusion of the side hall.
Ever since Zhang Pianpian’s Tao Seed Taiqing Talisman was upgraded to Level 2, a new illusion has appeared in the Taiqing Realm, allowing Zhang Yu to simulate real-world objects here.
Although with his Dao Heart, he can at most simulate Foundation Establishment level Magic Treasures and Magic Remains, it’s more than enough for Zhang Yu.
At this moment, the entire environment gradually transforms into the shape of a laboratory under Zhang Yu’s control, resembling Ye Xingli’s lab.
Zhang Yu has spent almost every day in Ye Xingli’s lab recently, so he has a considerable understanding of it, now replicating it in the illusion with remarkable likeness.
However, many pieces of equipment only have an outer shell since Zhang Yu hasn’t used them himself and doesn’t know their functions, so he cannot truly simulate them in the illusion.
The next moment, accompanied by a roar from the four-headed White Bull in Zhang Yu’s mind, he transforms into four people within the illusion, each stepping up to a different experimental table.
Simultaneously, a Magic Treasure design blueprint floats before Zhang Yu, recording a treasure called “Blessing Relic.”
This is a common Magic Treasure used by company employees, mostly distributed free of charge by the company for employees to use.
Once equipped with this Blessing Relic, the exchange of information between employees and the Spirit Realm Network can be comprehensively monitored, and internal data of their bodies can be collected in real-time.
If any violation of company regulations by employees is detected, the Blessing Relic directly extracts Mana as a penalty, and at month-end, it is distributed as a bonus to the company.
It is said that after applying the Blessing Relic, many companies saw a significant increase in net profit even without noticeable growth in revenue that year.
As a product of Vajra University, the Blessing Relic won the gold award at the Magic Treasure Design Competition that year.
The blueprint Zhang Yu is currently studying is not the latest version of the Blessing Relic, but an old version stored in the grand library of Wanfa University, which Zhang Yu purchased for learning purposes.
It’s said that the latest version of the Blessing Relic is more powerful, and its design blueprint is a corporate secret.
At this moment, Zhang Yu’s four lines of thought began learning different parts of the Blessing Relic design blueprint.
But the reason Zhang Yu is learning it is certainly not because he wishes to create the Blessing Relic for his own employees.
Zhang Yu aims to learn the technology within.
Monitoring employee exchanges with the Spirit Realm Network involves Spirit Realm transmission technology and Spirit Realm information defense technology, applicable to the defense module against the Spirit Realm for the Heavenly Sun Divine, preventing military-level puppets from being invaded through the Spirit Realm.
Real-time collection of various data within employees involves internal sensor technology and special Mana detection technology, both critical technologies for the Heavenly Sun Divine to monitor the entire puppet.
Forcibly extracting Mana as a penalty applies fully automated Mana extraction technology, one of the technologies used in the Heavenly Sun Divine’s power system.
If Zhang Yu can simulate the Blessing Relic blueprint through the Taiqing Realm, and with the practice effect of Yu Shu to Level 20, he will naturally master these technologies for future Heavenly Sun Divine Prototype Machine refining.
“By learning one Magic Treasure after another, I can effortlessly master the technologies needed for the Heavenly Sun Divine.”
While Zhang Yu studies the design blueprint, various materials from the Artifact Refining Department continuously pop up around him.
Since he hasn’t completed the Artifact Refining Department courses yet, he’ll need to self-study when encountering areas of the design he doesn’t understand.
However, as long as he self-learns some basics, allowing Zhang Yu to complete a Blessing Relic refining process, he can repeatedly practice, constantly boosting Yu Shu’s practice count.
Thereby forcibly increasing the Artifact Refining level while mastering all knowledge and technologies involved in the process.
The entire Taiqing Realm operated at high speed, and under 20-fold acceleration, Zhang Yu, equipped with the talent of an Artifact Refining prodigy, split his thoughts into four, crazily learning everything before him.
Several hours later, Zhang Yu felt that he had digested the blueprint thoroughly and began simulating one bone relic after another, preparing to practice refining Blessing Relics within the illusion.
In the days that followed, Zhang Yu devoted himself wholeheartedly to his studies, spending almost every spare moment in the Taiqing Realm.
…
One day, when Zhang Yu entered Magnetic Pole True Monarch’s laboratory again, he saw a round crystal-like object under the True Monarch’s control, flying back and forth around the Divinity Transformation Remains.
Zhang Yu curious asked, “Teacher, what is this?”
Magnetic Pole True Monarch smiled and said, “This is an experimental device I crafted. Although it’s not yet complete, it seems to have already activated the blood circulation within the Divinity Transformation Remains.”
After participating in so many experiments, Zhang Yu knew that Magnetic Pole True Monarch divided the cracking process of the Divinity Transformation Remains into four phases: free control, principle deciphering, laboratory manufacturing, and final batch production.
During the free control phase, Magnetic Pole True Monarch set five goals: Mana exchange, blood exchange, memory exchange, knowledge exchange, and cultivation exchange.
Each goal is harder than the last, and the final cultivation exchange must allow the Divinity Transformation Remains to both absorb others’ cultivation and enhance others’ cultivation.
Previously, Magnetic Pole True Monarch had achieved the goal of Mana exchange.
Now it seems he is approaching the goal of blood exchange.
Zhang Yu said, “Congratulations, teacher.”
Magnetic Pole True Monarch replied calmly, “Thanks to your reminder. This experimental device was created by imitating the physical characteristics of your body, producing a yang artifact body capable of deceiving this Divinity Transformation Remain into believing it’s you.”
Zhang Yu’s eyes moved, staring at the round crystal in mid-air, thinking to himself, “The teacher has succeeded in refining it; why have I not been able to replicate the Tao Seed? Could it be…”
Zhang Yu asked, “Is the level of this artifact body not high?”
Magnetic Pole True Monarch gave Zhang Yu an unexpected glance and said, “You do have some insight. It seems you’ve made considerable progress after switching departments.”
“This Magic Remains is only at Level 11 now.”
Zhang Yu said, “Then it seems we need to continue elevating its level to successfully achieve the goal of Vitality Exchange?”
Magnetic Pole True Monarch shook his head, “The Magic Remains itself still has room for design optimization; it’s unnecessary to push the first prototype to such a high level.”
With that, Magnetic Pole True Monarch laughed and grabbed Zhang Yu with one hand, “Let me see, what else can be optimized.”
Feeling himself being seized like a lab animal, Zhang Yu had to force a smile and cooperate with his teacher.
Thinking back to moments of helplessness, Zhang Yu always tells himself that one must be wealthy and strong.
Magnetic Pole True Monarch said, “Good, keep it up, don’t move around.”
Zhang Yu replied, “As long as you’re satisfied, Teacher.”
Magnetic Pole True Monarch: “You’ve started learning about the Heavenly Sun Divine, right? With your ranking, you could try applying for a project loan from the university, don’t forget that.”
…
Outdoors.
On this day, Zhang Yu rarely went to the construction site, employing the Heavenly Kunlun Mountain Shifting Divine Power for construction.
Just as he finished up the construction and was about to leave, a somewhat familiar figure blocked his way.
“Feng Yuhai?”
Zhang Yu’s gaze sharpened, recognizing the person in front of him as Feng Yuhai from the school’s research department.
Previously, it was this Feng Yuhai who proposed regulations and lockdown measures against him, attempting to keep him at the university, even confining him in the laboratory. Eventually, he was rebutted in front of Ten Thousand Transformations Divine Monarch with Magnetic Pole True Monarch, Director Gao, and Zhang Yu together.
Zhang Yu knew this school administrative official was often at odds with Magnetic Pole True Monarch, and seeing him now, Zhang Yu was immediately on guard.
Feng Yuhai said calmly, “Student Zhang Yu.”
The next moment, Spirit Aura flashed across the heavens and earth, chains emerged out of thin air, thoroughly locking down an area of a thousand meters.
Within this thousand-meter radius, not only was the spiritual mechanism nearly stopped, Zhang Yu struggled to utilize it, even Spirit Realm communication halted, completely disconnecting Zhang Yu from the Spirit Realm.
Feeling the Earth Evil Gravity couldn’t be deployed, Zhang Yu had to land on the ground.
Zhang Yu frowned and asked, “Mr. Feng, is there something you need?”
At the same time, Zhang Yu had already activated the Heavenly Bracelet loaned by the school, trying to send a message to summon Magnetic Pole True Monarch, only to find the message failed to send.
Then Zhang Yu tried contacting others, but it all failed.
“The Heavenly Bracelet malfunctioned?”
Zhang Yu knew the Heavenly Bracelet could directly connect to the sun and moon in the sky, known as the Sun-chasing Kunwu and Eternal Night Qiongque, reaching straight to the Spirit Realm.
“Is it Feng Yuhai causing trouble?”
As if seeing through Zhang Yu’s actions, Feng Yuhai coolly said, “No need to panic, I came looking for you for a good reason today.”
“I heard Magnetic Pole True Monarch used bionic technology, modeled after you to create the Magic Remains, successfully integrating with the Divinity Transformation Remains.”
“I want to purchase the key organs from you, to facilitate the management of the laboratory.”
Leaving no room for choice, Feng Yuhai seemed to issue a direct command.
Zhang Yu hesitated slightly, thinking, “This guy… is trying to snatch the progress without permission from my teacher?”
Zhang Yu replied, “I don’t plan to sell any organs from my body.”
Feng Yuhai seemed totally unconcerned with Zhang Yu’s response, calmly saying, “After all, you’re just a junior student, not understanding many laboratory terms is normal.”
“As a technological achievement of Wanfa University, theoretically, you should be under my management.”
“I know you have things to tend to, so I won’t forcefully keep you at the university, but regarding the key organs, I hope you can voluntarily hand them over. It’s also about protecting laboratory property.”
“This is my responsibility, and I hope you support our research department.”
Upon hearing Feng Yuhai’s words, Zhang Yu quickly realized: “This guy wants to use my body organs to take control of the laboratory’s lead?”
Zhang Yu immediately replied, “Magnetic Pole True Monarch still needs me to improve the experimental remains.”
Meanwhile, Zhang Yu tried using the Heavenly Patrol Flying Sword to see if he could contact the outside world, only to find it equally unsuccessful.
Looking at the chains intermittently appearing and disappearing in the atmosphere, Zhang Yu thought, “This Feng Yuhai is also at the Nascent Soul Realm; with him deploying Magic Treasures to suppress, I simply can’t break the lock.”
“But what if it’s Taiqing Realm?”
Zhang Yu tried putting on the spiritual interface on his head.
Watching this scene, Feng Yuhai calmly said, “Don’t waste your effort, our conversation today is confidential. I don’t want anyone to know, and hence you can’t contact anyone.”
