Chapter 992 Worldchanging Expo
992 Worldchanging Expo
Myriad Emperor World, Heavenly Court:
w.a.n.g Wei took the Merit Proving Method and read for another time. He did not expect this technique to have such a grand origin. He
wondered what other wanderers the Sagehood Path had, but the information in the book Wu Hong left him was basic, more in the line to give him a certain understanding.
He put the technique away before looking in the distance.
"It"s been such a while, but no reaction. So, all evidence shows that Maitreya is indeed on our side and is protecting me."
He did not think he could hide his conversation with Empyrean Jimin from Supreme Unity.
However, just like the revolution was not instantly annihilated, the current situation was indicative that he was also protected and did not need to worry about the wrath of a Half-Step Transcendence.
w.a.n.g Wei exhaled deeply before checking on the world. Based on his observation, he soon realized the profession of the world was undergoing a renaissance.
After Tong Ruobing"s invention of the Talisman Weapon, the other professions felt the need to innovate. The Array Masters immediately latched into Wu Ming"s Totem Warrior Path, trying to perfect it as soon as possible.
Alchemist or Pill Refiners tried to innovate, focusing on w.a.n.g Wei"s previous flaw Innate Pill.
However, there was no progress despite the creation of many Innate Pills. Sadly, their success was due to absorbing Innate Qi in the environment, not because they recreated how Heaven and Earth refined Innate Pills.
As a result, Hou Shu"s material alchemy had a new resurgence as Alchemists focused more on this underdeveloped field.
Weapon Refiners were the weakest of the group as they had no new ideas for innovation. So, they took inspiration from Chen Chen and began focusing on creating extremely large weapon creations. For example, creating an entire city that is an origin weapon.
Even minor professions like puppetry had a boost as the concept of flesh puppets suddenly became popular.
w.a.n.g Wei looked at everything with a satisfied smile.
"It"s time for Liling and the Dao Opening Sect to take the stage in this age of innovation." He sent an order, and soon afterward, Yan Liling left the retreat. Not long after her appearance, another worldwide announcement in the Dream World similar to Tong Ruobing appeared.
The Alchemists all over the world were excited. In this generation, each primary profession had a prodigy that represented the peak of that field.
Yan Liling was for alchemists, just like Tong Ruobing was for Talisman Makers.
Now that Yan Liling appeared in the same fas.h.i.+on as Tong Ruobing, they knew something major would appear. They were right.
She first introduced the automatic cauldron to the world, shocking people as to how much such an invention would revolutionize the world, not in a good way.
The way these alchemists saw this invention was something that would replace them, rendering them useless. Well, even if it did not do that, it would still lower their status and value in the world. If Yan Liling was not from such a powerful faction with the Heavenly Emperor behind her, they would have killed her at all costs and destroyed that so-called [Heaven and Earth Mechanical Cauldron].
Yan Liling noticed how these people felt during this expo, so she rea.s.sured them this product would not replace alchemists. On the contrary, they would become more valuable. The device could not function without the recipe, so Alchemist will develop more in that direction.
She then announces that the cauldron will become a new setting in the Dream World simply called [Alchemy]. Anyone can pay to refine a pill.
However, unlike before, where all transactions only used Dream Coins, this setting requires actual payment.
Non-alchemists???especially loose cultivators and people from weak factions???were the most excited by this development. From now on, as long as they have the material and the fee, they won"t have to worry about finding an alchemist to refine pills for them.
The Alchemists finally could not hide their anger and hatred. Such a new development was definitely targeting their profession. However, Yan Liling did not care about their reaction as she continued.
The news she revealed next still shocked the world???the creation of Immortal Runes. From now on, a new cla.s.s above Quasi-EmperorTier???Immortal Tier Alchemist.
Tong Ruobing did not hide her Immortal Rune System, publis.h.i.+ng its basics to the public. She also left a recording in the Dream World of her refining an Immortal Tier Pill called Qi Replenis.h.i.+ng Pill, which helps Immortal Sovereigns rapidly recover their lost Immortal Qi.
The world of alchemy was shocked, with many people believing this video was fake; it was created from the Home Setting of the Dream World. Unfortunately, the purple merit that descended on the Dao Opening Sect showed them it was true.
For so many years, alchemists have wanted to break this limit and refine Immortal Pills.
According to lost records, some talented alchemists might have succeeded, and there are signs that such a thing was more common before the Null Era. However, no one had actually created a replicable system until Yan Liling.
Immediately after the expo, most upper-echelon alchemists forgot about the issue with the automated cauldron. They dedicated all their time and effort to refining an Immortal Tier Pill.
Although Yan Liling warned them the threshold to become an Immortal Tier Alchemist was extremely high, those people had confidence because of one thing???the Dream World.
Although they had to repay for Immortal Tier Simulation, most of these Alchemists were rich or had powerful factions to back them. So, they could afford the price of millions of attempts.
They all had the att.i.tude that even if their talent were not on par, they would use hard work and unlimited resources to pill themselves to become an Immortal Alchemist.
After all, if they succeed, the reward will not be simple wealth and glory. With the right pill, they can extend their lifespan to the limit of Mortals.
Their strength might reach a new height, along with many other advantages.
While the world of alchemy was experiencing drastic change, the Dao Opening Sect struck again with another exhibition. They revealed two unfinished projects: an automatic weapon refining cauldron and creating the ultimate array.
The other professions who were reveling in the fact that the Alchemist Era was coming to an end received a system shock after this announcement.
Luckily, the project was incomplete, leaving room for them to improve.
Now, they faced a dilemma: should they partic.i.p.ate in the creation of this project, receive merit, and leave their name in the annals of history, or ignore it and hope it never gets finished?
Ultimately, these people could not resist the temptation of wealth and fame. Many talented and accomplished Array Master and WeaponRefiners signed up for the project. After being tested, the Dao Opening Sect selected the best to work on the project.
Heavenly Court:
"Is it true when they say power is charming? I haven"t seen you in a while, but you look more handsome, big brother," said Yan Liling with a smile.
"I have been thinking about this too. Recently, I have found it difficult to stop staring at myself in the mirror," replied w.a.n.g Wei as he gave her a hug. They sat opposite each other and served tea.
"How did the exhibition feel? Were you nervous?"
"Not really, at least not until these people wanted to kill me," sighed Yan Liling. "Although I expected this response, I did not expect it would be to this degree. Luckily, I diverted their interest to the new Immortal Rune System. Otherwise, the backlash from this reveal would have been more severe."
"Great progress that revolutionized any field is rarely done so peacefully," said w.a.n.g Wei calmly.
"The automatic cauldron is the future of the world. It will impact how resources are distributed, the rising path of regular cultivators, and even how future wars are fought.
"Once the idea appears in the world, it"s impossible for these people to stop its development."
"True, but if for your strength and support, they could delay it for thousands of generations, if not more."
w.a.n.g Wei agreed to that statement. Despite how ancient it is, the cultivator world has not changed much since its inception. At first, this anomaly seemed odd, but it"s understandable when you think about it logically.
Few people can accept drastic and constant changes in their lives. So, with the cultivator world having immortal beings that have lived for far too long, it made sense these people would not easily allow the world to change. Whether out of a necessity to maintain their power and control or because of a sense of familiarity, changes are usually not a good thing for them. As such, many of them spend too much time trying to maintain the status quo.
"So, what"s your next plan?" asked w.a.n.g Wei.
"I have to help the sect modify the Immortal System to function for other professions," replied Yan Liling. Her immortal runes were designed specifically for pill refining, but with some fine-tuning, they could be changed to aid the other professions.
"After that?"
"Afterward, I will prepare to face the Heaven Chosen of the Endless Void."
Her goal is to be number one on the list of young alchemists and among the top 10 alchemists of the lower dimension. With the luck and destinies of these two lists, she won"t have much of a problem after proving the Dao.
"That"s an excellent plan. Before I open the list of professions, I will recreate the imprint of all famous Pill Emperors in the lower dimension, and you can learn from them first."
Yan Liling"s eyes lit up after hearing this. If she could hear the sermon and watch countless Pill Emperors refine pills, her Alchemy Dao would reach an imaginable level, and she might have a chance to dominate these two lists.
She smiled, thinking how wonderful it was to have an overpowered big brother who controlled the power of fate. The things he can do and the advantages he can give her are simply wonderful.
The two talked and spent a few days together before returning to their busy schedule.
