In the room, the puter screen flickers, and the two cultivation techniques displayed have around ten thousand words, freely available to browse or download online.
Lu Xuanji's mouse clicks lazily at first, but gradually his expression changes.
The "Body Tempering Technique" and "Divine Tempering Technique," at a glance, appear extremely ordinary, but upon careful perusal, reveal profound mysteries of immense creation within.
Once, twice, three times, four times…
After reading seven times consecutively, Lu Xuanji begins to deduce with a secret technique, admiring in his heart: "Incredible, incredible, not sure which Immortal left this behind, containing such enormous creation. The path of cultivation has myriad transformations, yet all changes adhere to the same principle, mostly refining the essence, qi, and spirit, honing the daoxin, transforming the will…"
"The Purple Mansion Realm follows the Qi Refining Technique; Qi Refining, Foundation Establishment, Purple Mansion, Golden Core, and so forth, each step continuously refines the magical power, essentially grasping qi. It emphasizes the enhancement of qi, driving the improvement of physical physique and spiritual power."
"Refining the mind is too difficult, requiring extremely high aptitude; body refining takes too much time and is not worth the effort. Only Qi Refining is most suitable for the majority of cultivators…"
"These two scrolls of cultivation, emphasize the tempering of essence and spirit, very beneficial for me…"
While browsing these two scrolls of cultivation, Lu Xuanji continuously calculates, experiencing unique insights.
These two scrolls of cultivation are divided into a hundred layers, easy at the start, with the initial cultivation extremely simple, requiring only hands and feet to get started. The first ten layers present little challenge, even fools can begin and make progress; but beyond that, progress bees increasingly difficult.
Upon pondering for a moment and confirming there are no hidden dangers in the cultivation technique, Lu Xuanji starts cultivating the "Body Tempering Technique." Qi and blood circulate, repeatedly tempering the skin, bones, organs, marrow, blood, etc., advancing rapidly, achieving the first layer in mere moments.
Next, the second layer, third layer, fourth layer, fifth layer…
Constantly progressing layer by layer, reaching the tenth layer within half an hour.
As qi and blood transition, circulating and transforming, the blood within the body exudes a golden hue, supreme and noble, vast and mighty; bones appear white jade-like, resembling superior fine jade; with each breath, the organs thunderously resonate, akin to thunderclaps.
As the cultivation technique operates, reaching its zenith, qi and blood coalesce into smoke rising above the head, transforming into the Thirty-Three Heavens Immortal Realm, endlessly exhibiting majesty and mystery.
Clatter clatter!
The technique advances in layers, continuously elevating, encountering a snag at the seventy-ninth layer.
Lu Xuanji retracts his qi and blood, reverting to an ordinary appearance.
However, some rune chains on his body have shattered, and his cultivation significantly advanced.
Again operating the "Divine Tempering Technique," he relentlessly tempers the primordial spirit, and as the cultivation technique progresses, it too meets an obstacle at the seventy-ninth layer.
The seventy-ninth layer seems to be a massive shackle.
Buzz buzz!
Lu Xuanji channels the qi and blood power, his body resembling a humanoid fierce beast, while sensing the primordial spirit, being exceedingly pure, as if polished hundreds of times. Also sensing the magical power, it flows like steel wire, soft yet incredibly sharp.
Although constrained by the world, most extraordinary powers are suppressed, unable to manifest their wonders, yet he clearly senses his progress.
Continuing to browse, Lu Xuanji greedily absorbs knowledge, understanding the world's history, culture, technology, and various kinds of information.
With Spirit Stones at the core, this world birthed powerful technology, forging mighty mechs with terrifying bat power.
The initial first-generation mechs can confront the Golden Core; second-generation mechs can confront the Nascent Soul. By now, they've developed to the fifth generation, the most powerful mechs can confront Refining Void Great Power. However, these mechs are not only difficult to forge but also scarce, controlled by a few influential entities.
In a few clubs, there are some civilian mechs used only for recreational purposes, lacking weapons and having outdated systems. Most advanced mechs are controlled by the military, joining the army is necessary to access them.
"Interesting!"
Lu Xuanji ponders, "Joining the military could acquire advanced mechs. That seems like a worthwhile choice… With Spirit Stones paving the way, one could quickly achieve rank!"
Ideas flash in his mind, planning the next steps.
Planning how to use Spirit Stones to elevate his status, how to quickly access mechs.
Further familiarizing himself with this world, discerning its essence.
...
Ten years later, on a certain battlefield.
Bang bang bang!
Destructive cannons roar, violent explosions tear through, cannons firing create a carpet bombing; simultaneously, aircraft engage in the sky, initiating precision strikes on specific targets. On the ground, tanks move in columns, forming a steel torrent that floods forward.
Soldiers wield weapons, riding armored vehicles, swiftly advancing in formation.
In the sky, mechs collide fiercely, clashing and fighting intensely.
The three-dimensional integration unfolds as both sides engage in a violent war.
In the rear battle lines, a large screen displays the battlefield scenes.
Wearing a general's uniform adorned with two stars and a horizontal bar, richly decorated and grand, Lu Xuanji watches coldly.
Beside him, a group of officers meticulously calculates and deduces the battle situation, calculating the forces of both sides, guessing troop allocations, evaluating the enemy's attack direction, and considering our army's response direction—all conducted with meticulous and reasonable analysis.
Feeling somewhat fatigued, Lu Xuanji sits back in his chair, sipping coffee.
The bitter taste of coffee slides down his throat, quite unpleasant, but surprisingly rich in flavor.
Savoring the taste of the coffee, Lu Xuanji slightly refreshes his spirit.
Watching the large screen, the picture changes, the resolution blurred like a video game glitch, brimming with numerous snow-like static, emitting a faint hiss.
Click!
At this moment, the large screen suddenly goes black.
"General, the enemy has deployed interference grenades, affecting our munications! Should we activate backup equipment?" an officer inquires.
"Activate backup equipment!"
Lu Xuanji mands coldly.
The officer nods, approaching the phone, dialing and issuing orders.
The chief of staff steps forward, "General, according to our intelligence, the enemy is concentrating firepower to eliminate several of our fortresses! Some mechs are deploying covertly, targeting precise strikes at specific locations. Additionally, the enemy's reserves have not been deployed yet."
