433: Chapter 76: The Rebel Brothers (3/3) 433: Chapter 76: The Rebel Brothers (3/3) This is the latest portable Evil-Repelling Field Generator from the Tianyuan Realm.
“A great item — sothing you absolutely can’t buy on the market!”
At this mont, An Jing, apart from feeling impressed, also had a deep sense of caution.
The level of artifact cultivation in the Tianyuan Realm was already very high.
Whether it be Sword Boxes, drones, or those flying shuttles and cars, placed in the Embracing the Void Realm, they would be generations ahead in terms of technology.
But these were just the artifacts that circulated among the common people in the Lower City District and the Wilderness of the Tianyuan Realm.
The real high-end technology of the Tianyuan Realm was in the hands of large conglorates and corporations.
Just like Xi Yin and this portable field generator — its technological content was far superior to common magical artifacts, and it was evident that it could be mass-produced.
To say that neither the Embracing the Void Realm nor the civilian sector of the Tianyuan Realm could produce it would be impossible.
In a cultivation world, the last thing one should underestimate are the eccentrics and talents who could produce high-grade magical artifacts with their bare hands.
This was also why large conglorates could not completely suppress the smaller factions in the Wilderness, as the strong individuals among these factions were not inferior to those in the conglorates when it ca to magic treasures.
But producing one artifact by hand was one thing, any more would be too much of a waste of a strong individual’s ti.
When the armies of the conglorates were dispatched, each soldier equipped with sophisticated magic artifacts and spiritual artifacts, pressing down on the Wilderness like the heavens themselves, even the most powerful Guiyi Army in the Wilderness would have to retreat, hiding in the deep mountains, forests, or even underground.
Civilian technology was not as advanced as that before the Great Calamity.
However, within the conglorates, with the exception of a few lost and rather powerful technologies, many skills had probably already surpassed those from before the Great Calamity.
“What’s this new equipnt?”
At this mont, Nian Quan and Huo Qing also noticed An Jing’s field cloak and approached curiously, only to be stopped by the field.
Nian Quan imdiately beca curious, poking at it with his Sword Qi and growing even more astounded, “This repelling force and level of robustness are not inferior to Yan Chengju’s Spirit Shield.
What a fine magical artifact indeed!”
“It’s a pity it’s rely a simple tool that cannot be used for cultivation.”
Huo Qing glanced at it, his previous thirst for knowledge now diminished, “Although it’s a very powerful miniaturized formation pattern technology, it cannot be completely replicated without specialized tools.
It can’t aid in cultivation, nor can it commune with the Great Dao, nor even hasten the convergence of Spirit Qi.”
“The conglorates like to create these uncomfortable magical artifacts for ordinary people, and then incorporate them into their own systems.”
“Indeed.” An Jing and Nian Quan nodded in unison.
They weren’t mistaken; the conglorates did create good things, it was just that aspect that was particularly botherso.
All sorts of cultivation skills, ultimately, are for one’s own achievent.
Even magic treasures specifically for battle can also enhance the user’s life.
While the Evil-Repelling Field Cloak’s defensive capabilities could match Yan Chengju’s magical artifacts, and its abilities were even superior, it only had a pure effect and didn’t possess the ability to enhance cultivators.
On the other hand, Yan Chengju’s Five Directions Five Tools could be seen as a preliminary manifestation of the True Intent of the Five Elents rotation cycle of the future.
In An Jing’s view, it was a kind of ‘External Divine Abnormality’ that could assist in Artifact Refining, setting up formations, and even Alchemy.
As Yan Chengju himself grew, the enhancents from this set of magical artifacts to him would beco increasingly significant, targeting the path towards the Purple Mansion Golden Core, and perhaps even aiming at the Heaven Earth Five Elents Creation Truth in the future.
But the various mass-produced artifacts of the conglorates, apart from their specific functions, couldn’t assist in cultivation at all.
The technology embedded within them was overlapping and interwoven, either requiring extrely high material purity, or needing specialized massive Spirit-engraved Magical Instrunts for micro-engraving processes, making them impossible to replicate independently.
In short, if not within their system, even repairs would be difficult.
“The conglorates suppress the Wilderness with this systemic advantage.”
Nian Quan mused thoughtfully, “It’s also the conglorates’ thod of controlling their cultivators.”
“To fight against them,” An Jing pondered, “this is a key point.”
Of the three present, one had both parents in the Guiyi Army, ancestors all from the Guiyi Army, and most likely couldn’t shake off the rebel label if he tried.
The other, with a mother killed by a conglorate, now set his heart on infiltrating the upper echelons of the conglorate, ready to strike a harsh blow at the opportune mont — another opponent of the conglorates, likewise a rebel.
The last one was even more exaggerated: he was the Seven Fiend of Heavenly Mandate—not a label for him as a rebel, but his very breath and existence!
The three yet-to-be rebels, after sizing up the Xi Yin Drone thoroughly, each went their separate ways to cultivate—Nian Quan to heal and refine Qi, Huo Qing to study arrays, and An Jing to cultivate the Taibai Luminous Godly Ban through the effects of a Foundation Establishnt-level Spirit Gathering Array.
His Technique of Qi Refinent was already taking off, and before long, he would be able to condense the First Prohibition.
Three days passed in the blink of an eye.
In these three days, An Jing and Huo Qing, under the guise of collecting scrap, acquired a number of broken puppets and second-hand ones from Chonggang Town.
Given Huo Qing’s current identity, he didn’t have to personally repair each one, but instead hired so formation masters from another elder of his, Rusty Feather.
According to Huo Qing’s assessnt, all could be repaired within a decade or so, and then An Jing could take them back in turn if he wanted to, and he himself could keep so to tidy up the scrapyard, centering on the formation left by Iron Hand, with additional satellite mini-formations to be installed.
After doing all this, An Jing bid farewell to them both and left Nian Quan’s residence.
Nian Quan and Huo Qing watched An Jing’s figure move towards the outskirts of the city and then disappear into the crowd.
“Don’t you think An Jing’s departure is very mysterious?”
As Huo Qing watched the scene, he couldn’t help but remark, “Although I’ve never specifically tracked him, he has never left any traces of his departure.”
“Mm, I saw the way he left once before, and it was indeed very mysterious.”
Nian Quan also recalled the scene when An Jing had disappeared after giving him the ‘Heavenly River Life and Death Sword’, and he pondered, “I suspect, An Jing possesses the Great Void Divine Skill.”
“Definitely.”
Huo Qing didn’t doubt it for a second: “It could be a Magic Artifact, or it could be a natural Divine Skill…
I think it’s the latter.
An Jing’s identity is more mysterious than I imagined, even surpassing the Ancient Immortal Remnants.”
Although Huo Qing was convinced by An Jing that he wasn’t from the Ancient Immortal Remnants, he wondered what sort of power could have nurtured soone like him.
“If he didn’t have the Great Void Divine Skill, which force would dare to let go of such a talent?” Nian Quan had been convinced from the start that An Jing was definitely not from so ordinary wilderness force—where would an ordinary wilderness force get the Heavenly River Life and Death Sword?
He even suspected that the force behind An Jing had uncovered the ‘Primordial Spirit Inheritance’ from the era of the Dao Courtyard in the Tianyuan Realm!
But Nian Quan was well aware that so things didn’t need to be made too clear, which is why he never inquired about the related matters: “eting An Jing was our good fortune; it taught us humility and broadened our horizons so that we could better understand the vastness of this world.”
“Yes,” Huo Qing reflected, and turning his head, he looked earnestly at Nian Quan, “Before, our identities to each other were just ‘friends of An Jing’…
Anyone valued by An Jing must be extraordinarily talented and of good character, precisely the kind of person most suitable to be friends with.”
“Let’s get to know each other officially this ti.”
He raised his hand to his heart and introduced himself, “I am Huo Qing, researcher of the Formation Path, practicing martial arts and Body Refinent to protect the Dao.”
“I am Nian Quan.” The blue-eyed young man also smiled and gave a salute, “I used to try Alchemy to supplent my family’s inco; now I’m a Sword Cultivator.”
On the other side of the Great Void.
Embracing the Void.
After returning, An Jing imdiately drove Tengshuang White to Broken Blade Mountain, to the site of the Demon Spirit Spirit Field, to observe the efficacy of the fertilizer.
The results were very pleasing; as soon as An Jing got close, he caught the strong exotic fragrance, and looking up, his face lit up with surprise.
For all the Spirit Plants in the three Spirit Fields had matured!
