Chapter 1455: Chapter 251: Artificial Cave Heavens and Blessed Lands (1/2)
The data space within the core chip is a vast expanse of pure white fields, as pristine as the Heavenly Kingdom.
The sky is blood-red, which is the color of the chip’s outer casing.
In the fields, countless lost souls are asleep—in this place, they do not need to beco parts to construct module after module of abilities.
They rely need to rest. Rest until they wish to awaken.
During their slumber, tiny white fragnts seep out from their bodies, scattering into the air and forming cloud-like structures.
This is the ‘Spirit Material Cloud.’ A natural phenonon occurring when nurous spiritual bodies converge.
If this phenonon sedinted for another hundred or two hundred years, or if the quality of the souls lingering here is sufficiently high, it will form the golden cloud of Spirit Energy Essence on the Dragon Bone Plaza of the Exotic Species Research Institute. It’s a pure spirit energy material exclusively found in Subspace Labyrinths.
And these clouds are the raw materials Ian and Adalbert use to create ‘artificial intelligence.’
“No wonder you want to release these lost souls… Because you need the spirit material generated by their natural movents to create brand new souls!”
At this mont, Adalbert saw through Ian’s purpose, but Ian was indifferent: “This is indeed one of my goals, but I also truly want to free them.”
“Just that this freedom also brings additional gains, which is not contradictory, is it?”
Souls also undergo tabolism.
Fragnts of souls naturally shed within living bodies are quickly reused by the body, and the shed parts quickly regrow; this continually accumulating process is the soul’s natural growth process, slow but steady.
After losing the body, the soul will continuously shed, and the shedding fragnts cannot be reused; if in an area with weak natural spiritual energy field, generally in less than a day or two, it will collapse due to excessive structure loss.
The stronger and sturdier the soul, the slower its shedding, but in the end, expenses cannot cover the costs.
Unless they are located next to the sun, Earth’s core, or such spirit material-rich areas like the Subspace Labyrinth, in which case, inco can balance expenditure, allowing the soul to exist long-term.
The internal environnt of the Source Quality Calculating Chip is quite suitable for soul restoration; the lost souls here can continuously self-repair, and if enough ti passes, perhaps they’d be able to escape the identity of the Deceased Monarch part and return to freedom.
“Adalbert, you can co here in the future to teach these souls ditation techniques.”
Noticing Adalbert’s gaze, Ian suggested: “This could allow them to recover faster, strengthen themselves, and exist longer.”
“Not just that.” Adalbert muttered to himself: “Your plan isn’t so simple.”
He realized Ian’s true intention almost instantly: “I understand, when these souls beco stronger, the dispersing ‘spirit material’ becos more ample.”
“And all this dispersing spirit material serves as nourishnt for the ‘artificial intelligence’ you want to create, the ‘Heart of Terra’! It will continuously absorb these dispersing spirit materials to perfect and enhance its structure!”
“The Heart of Terra governs our ‘Man-made Underworld,’ the more souls within the Heart of Terra, the stronger it becos… This is a positive cycle, because if souls do not perish, the number of dead will only increase, and the Heart of Terra will grow stronger!”
As Adalbert contemplates further, he becos even more shocked: “Rather than calling this artificial intelligence, it’s better to say you’ve created a ‘Man-made Underworld Monarch!'”
“Plus, your Arcane Pathway’s ultimate goal is to create a ‘True God’ beyond Fifth Energy Level… this is your creation of a ‘Young God!’ A prototype god! Another subject for your comparative research!”
“Perhaps.” Ian did not refute, nor did he need to.
Calmly, he said to his rare friend on this planet, who could comprehend his aning in a re instant: “Then, are you willing to help ?”
“Help to create a prototype god… manifest the Heart of Terra?”
——Certainly.
Taking a deep breath, Adalbert didn’t give a verbal reply but demonstrated through action.
With great proficiency, he combined efforts with Ian, comncing the use of the spirit material within the chip to mold a powerful artificial soul.
Creating artificial intelligence is not difficult for Ian.
The Silver Chip already contains the ‘Combat Artificial Intelligence’ prototype developed by The Empire in the past. It was his last significant gain in the Imperial Capital, an unintended result from creating the Cyclops Giant Armor (referred as freeloading).
Moreover, Ian and Adalbert also tead up to build the structure of an ‘Artificial Soul,’ rely providing a mory copy; crafting a soul with self-personality is a trivial task.
Not to ntion, his body contains the ‘Rites of the Star Gods,’ just by extracting a portion, he can create an informational life akin to The Last Echo.
All combined, an ‘artificial intelligence’ with basic self-awareness and judgnt ability has been forged.
Between Ian and Adalbert’s souls, a silvery-white sphere like a miniature sun is gradually forming.
It is a soul being continuously inscribed and engraved with inscription structures, a spirit material aggregate progressively taking shape.
Originally, this would take roughly a day or two.
But during the creation process, Adalbert felt his computational power suddenly surged tenfold or even more tis.
