700: Chapter 73: Spiritual Network Hacker 700: Chapter 73: Spiritual Network Hacker In the past two months, rumors and gossip about An Xuan have escalated, with various marvelous conjectures and unthinkable apocryphal stories erging one after another.
Everyone is puzzled as to how such a genius, who could clearly compete for the top position at the Daoist Academy, could suddenly erge, especially from the Wilderness, a place most people look down upon with disdain.
Indeed.
While indeed there are so foolish enough to believe those strange news stories, the majority of people from Tianyuan Realm have long been accustod to these outrageous propaganda tactics.
They are well aware that it’s to cover up An Xuan’s real origin and related information.
But…
if all the unreliable information is discarded, the ‘truth’ that remains seems even more bewildering.
If An Xuan really cos from the Wilderness, then who is it that has nurtured him?
If An Xuan cos from the remains of an ancient Dao Courtyard, then why hasn’t the power behind him appeared yet?
If An Xuan originates from a world like the Cave Heaven of the Ancient Immortal Ruins, then why would they send out a genius of this caliber?
People from other groups are not so puzzled because they can guess ‘this is an alliance between Luofu Group and that mysterious power’, and An Xuan is akin to a Pawn.
However, for the high-level executives of Xuanye City who know a bit of An Xuan’s background, An Xuan’s mystery has reached a level that frustrates the intelligence departnt…
If it weren’t for being called off by the upper echelons after a two-decade investigation, they would probably still be dispatching exploration teams to search for clues in the Wilderness.
As for why the upper levels gave up on completely figuring out An Xuan, there are nurous speculations among Xuanye City’s managent.
But in general, it still cos down to the sa saying.
——No matter what, at least for now, An Xuan is indeed a mber of the Luofu Group.
In this case, there is no need to investigate further, especially the True Persons and True Lords who have invested in An Xuan and are optimistic about him; they certainly do not wish for other factions to make contact with the powers behind An Jing first—it’s their deserved credit!
As for An Jing himself, he had long seen through this—there’s nothing he needs to do; he just has to let things take their natural course without creating any ripples.
Thus, over these two months, he has always been imrsed in the library and on the large floors of Nian Quan, living a life more regular than bees with his daily routine of reading and resting.
Although several complications arose along the way, An Jing indeed went unquestioned as the ‘double top scorer in both martial and scholastic tests’.
Even without the access to the higher information database granted by Chairman Chen, he could still peruse all the books of Third Middle School and even Jingwei Academy.
Furthermore, due to the special permission of Principal He, An Jing could also visit any teacher he wanted to seek additional tutoring in the courses he needed.
For this task, all the teachers at Third Middle School felt extrely honored.
Almost all of them have benefited from the aftermath of An Jing’s pursuit of enlightennt; not to ntion that teaching An Jing, who is certain to be at least a True Person or True Lord in the future, would definitely add a splendid entry to their résumé.
Thanks to this, An Jing has now fully caught up with his foundations in Formation and Artifact Refining, as well as in the Qi Refinent of the Immortal Path, making his base incredibly strong.
Unlike in the Huai Xu Realm, the Array Masters of Tianyuan Realm spend most of their ti programming in the Spiritual Network, and then directly use this colossal Array Plate that encompasses heaven and earth to exert their power.
In other words, they treat the Spiritual Network as a Small World and use simpler thods to mobilize the power of the Small World.
They can exert five tis the effect with one-fifth of the energy, which makes it extrely powerful for defense.
No wonder there are over a dozen Purple Mansion Level Protective Great Formations in just one safe zone; they are all part of the Spiritual Network, so they can easily coordinate without interfering with one another.
But the cost is the sa: Array Masters of Tianyuan Realm find it difficult to pioneer new areas.
They must first establish a ‘Formation Tower’ to harness the power of the Spiritual Network before they can exert their full strength.
This is a massive limitation in contrast to Array Masters of Huai Xu Realm who directly link to Heaven and Earth.
This bias in the art is likely due to the following calamity: the main goal of Tianyuan Realm’s cultivators is to protect the Spiritual Vein Cities.
Naturally, An Jing would not limit himself to becoming an Array Master of Tianyuan Realm.
He only draws on useful details thereof to supplent his own system.
For example, by leveraging the power of the Spiritual Network, Array Masters pry into the power of the Great Heaven and Earth, which is essentially installing a set of ridians into Great Heaven and Earth.
With ridians, the mobilization of the power of Heaven and Earth becos incredibly convenient and much more efficient.
An Jing planned to borrow this concept and establish his own “Spiritual Network ridians” within his inner array realm.
In doing so, he could also use the spiritual network of his inner array realm to write various Art of Magic modules, attaching them to the local network within his body.
At that ti, without much effort, just like the array masters in Tianyuan Realm, after writing the formation program, he could directly input Spiritual Fiend into the network modules to cast various spells.
“Essentially, this is like you’ve created a ‘Spiritual Network ridian’ divine skill!”
In Subdue Evil’s words, this was already ‘the embryonic form of a divine skill’.
Technique Law Path.
The Path is mathematics.
The Magic consists of addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, various equation rules, and various theorem formulas.
The Technique is the multiplication table, quick ntal calculation skills.
Among them, the essence of ‘Divine Skill’ is an ability that is ‘nearly akin to the Path.’ It is the integration of nurous spells and can exert extrely complex and powerful effects.
Take An Jing’s ‘Coalescing Qi into Soldiers’ as an example; if decomposed, there are many small techniques such as ‘Qi Condensation,’ ‘Solidification,’ ‘Store Spirit,’ ‘Holding Intention,’ ‘Transforming Soldiers,’ etc.
Disassembling a divine skill to a large number of pre-integrated techniques, refining these small techniques diligently, and reassembling them into the original divine skill, this constitutes the process of cultivating a divine skill through[Refining Technique, Developing Magic, Refining the Dao].
After realizing this, An Jing re-cultivated his divine skill and suddenly discovered that his ability, which he thought had reached its peak, could actually be improved even further.
This demonstrates the importance of laying a solid foundation—if the foundation is strong, one can identify more minor problems to rectify, thereby reaching even greater heights.
Moreover, An Jing saw so clues from this technique.
“This…
bears a resemblance to the Earth Vein Network of the Great Chen dynasty that operates on a similar but unique principle.”
Although An Jing had sensed it before, only after learning did he truly understand the similarities—Spiritual Network is essentially a network established within the Earth Vein and the Great Void, while the Earth Vein Network of Great Chen is direct, completely controlled by the power of the dynasty to harness the Earth Vein and exhibit various powerful abilities.
Without the authorization of Emperor’s Blood, no one could fully utilize the power of Earth Vein.
With this authorization, the rule of the Great Chen Imperial Court was virtually unbreakable.
But this is rely because the civilian technology on the Huai Xu side is not advanced enough, and the Imperial Court has not encountered any challengers.
In Tianyuan Realm, even though the four major groups control the entirety of the Spiritual Network, there are still endless ‘Spiritual Network Demon Cultivators’ trying to seize the rights of the network, cracking open powers that are sealed off to ordinary people, and then hacking deep into the Spiritual Network to explore its mysteries.
If the Spiritual Network can be hacked, then could Great Chen dynasty’s ‘Earth Vein Network’ be hacked as well?
Even if An Jing hasn’t reached the level where he can break into the Imperial Network yet…
after all, he has Emperor’s Blood in him!
Not to ntion, he is also recognized by the Heavenly Dao as the Mountain Master of Heavenly Sword Mountain, possessing around him the Taiji Formation Plate of the Sky Sword Mountain Range, the rightful owner of that segnt of the Earth Vein Network!
The difference between hacking with bare hands and hacking with so network permissions and servers is too vast, vast enough that it is absolutely worth a try.
However, this plan will have to wait until An Jing returns to Great Chen again.
And he also needs to continue learning about formations, striving to beco a competent Spiritual Network hacker in Tianyuan Realm before returning to Great Chen!
