Chapter Index

    ‘Thanks.’

    ‘In memory of my fallen comrades.’

    Ling Tong’s slightly forlorn figure lingered in Wang Jixuan’s mind for a long time.

    She must have many stories to tell.

    Master Wang smashed down with his hammer, shattering all distracting thoughts along with the scene before him. He then skillfully finished the task, allowing the third section of the’steel pipe’ to take shape smoothly.

    He moved swiftly, forming a sword-like finger, and taking advantage of the absence of anyone around him, he used his qi to envelop the steel pipe, suspending it in front of him. His fingertips slid rapidly, continuously pouring spiritual energy into it, creating pathways of spiritual power within it.

    As his inner energy surged from his dantian, Wang Jixuan puffed out his cheeks, his eyes flashing with a sharp light, and unleashed a fierce burst of breath.

    Buzz!

    The steel pipe trembled violently!

    Wang Jixuan skillfully worked alone, passing the metal tube through heat treatment and re-forging, and a large number of patterns appeared on the surface of the tube.

    —Uncle Tai and the others couldn’t stay awake any longer and went to sleep.

    Wang Jixuan’s Qi Sea spun continuously, and his pores slowly drew in the spiritual energy from the air.

    After entering the Gathering Spirit Realm, not only did he condense his spiritual consciousness, but he could also maintain the circulation of his internal energy through his dantian and sea of ​​qi. Even when standing or lying down, he could maintain 60-70% of the cultivation speed he had when meditating.

    He worked until noon, until Sister Wan came to call him for lunch. By then, a bronze-colored long-handled gun was already taking shape.

    The spear is divided into three sections, connected by threads.

    From the perspective of magical artifacts alone, this spear is already quite complete. There is a diamond-shaped groove at the tail, middle, and below the spearhead, and any crystal core that is not larger than this groove can be embedded in it.

    But Master Wang felt that his first magical artifact in this world could not simply be a magical artifact.

    He was thinking about whether he could turn the long gun into a small electromagnetic cannon, so that it could be used as a sniper rifle, or turn it into an electromagnetic pulse transmitter that could release electromagnetic pulses.

    This way, he can use technological means to effectively kill the Blade Beast;

    Once technological means fail, use the power of the Blade Beast Crystal Core to kill the Blade Beast;

    Once the power of the crystal core is nearly exhausted, he will then expend his own energy.

    —The Taoist priest went to great lengths to make up for his current disadvantage in cultivation.

    Why is the first magical weapon a spear instead of a longsword?

    It’s very simple. Wang Jixuan considered the length of the blade beast’s limbs. A longsword might be convenient for cutting people, but it’s not suitable for cutting blade beasts.

    Wang Jixuan actually preferred the Green Dragon Crescent Blade.

    At this stage, however, the Green Dragon Crescent Blade consumes more spiritual energy to slash and kill enemies, while the spear is more energy-efficient for piercing and killing enemies.

    “Judging from Ling Tong’s words, the Blade Beasts will attack within three days, so we need to finish this as soon as possible and make more talismans.”

    A thin little hand waved in front of him.

    “Xiao Wang… Teacher, are you alright?”

    Wan Xiaoqi asked in a low voice:

    “You haven’t slept since last night. Do you want to go and rest? You can’t push yourself this hard to improve the process.”

    Sister Wan also said with concern, “Yes, Xiao Wang, don’t overwork yourself.”

    Uncle Tai emerged from the men’s restroom clutching his stomach, yawning repeatedly, and muttering, “Young people are so healthy.”

    Wang Jixuan asked, “Where is our commander?”

    “She went to the fortress,” Sister Wan brought Wang Jixuan a bowl of meat porridge. “She saw you forging there before, so she didn’t bother you. She said she was going to talk to Zhou Zhengde and the others about this dagger.”

    Wang Jixuan blinked: “Didn’t we say we wouldn’t go public for now? I haven’t finished testing it yet… Why is my food so good?”

    “This is the treatment you deserve.”

    Uncle Tai chuckled and patted Wang Jixuan on the shoulder:

    “Don’t you realize what you’ve accomplished? A psionic weapon, the first psionic weapon, and a psionic weapon that regenerates energy from the air!”

    Wang Jixuan leaned back slightly: “And then?”

    “Your achievement is already worthy of being included in textbooks! If you can develop a perfect mass production process, your name will be enough to be listed in the textbook table of contents!”

    Uncle Tai shouted with conviction.

    Wang Jixuan laughed heartily.

    None of these compare to the joy of becoming an immortal.

    He picked up the bowl and took a sip of the porridge, savoring its fresh and fragrant taste, which was indeed much better than canned food.

    Wang Jixuan was already considering how to back down later if he took too big a step this time.

    squeak–

    The sound of screeching brakes echoed outside the supply station, and a synthesized female voice came from the control panel:

    “The combat girl returns to the cabin.”

    The passageway above the workshop opened, and Ling Tong, wearing a flight backpack, slowly landed. Wan Xiaoqi quickly ran over to unpack the backpack.

    A flurry of footsteps sounded outside the door, and soon two men and a woman rushed in.

    Wang Jixuan certainly recognized the person at the front; it was Zhou Yanei, his most trusted comrade-in-arms.

    The two people behind were a middle-aged man in military uniform and a woman in a suit who looked to be only in her thirties or forties.

    Wang Jixuan recognized at a glance that this older sister should be Zhou Zhengde’s mother, Zhou Meiying, the Minister of Internal Affairs of the Fortress.

    Zhou Zhengde, panting heavily, asked, “What kind of cold weapon!”

    “this!”

    Uncle Tai presented the Demon-Slaying Dagger as if it were a treasure.

    Zhou Zhengde rushed forward in two steps, and his eyes nearly popped out when he saw Uncle Tai demonstrate how to pierce the alloy plate with a dagger.

    Captain Zhou held the dagger and examined it carefully, poking it a few times. He then carefully inspected the alloy plate and glared at Wang Jixuan, who was approaching with a bowl in his hand.

    “Can it be mass-produced?”

    “Not yet, still trying.”

    “pretty!”

    Zhou Zhengde suddenly rushed over, and while Wang Jixuan hesitated whether to dodge, Zhou Zhengde gave Wang Jixuan a bear hug, lifted him up, spun him around twice, and then started laughing wildly.

    If it weren’t for Master Wang’s quick reflexes, the meat porridge would have spilled all over them.

    Dongfang Zhenghong and Zhou Meiying stepped forward with serious expressions, repeatedly damaging the alloy plate with the dagger, listening attentively to Uncle Tai’s explanation of the twelve-second law, and feeling the process of the dagger absorbing spiritual energy in the air.

    A series of exclamations of admiration echoed through the workshop.

    Zhou Meiying exclaimed excitedly, “This is top secret! Everyone present must wear a classified bracelet!”

    Dongfang Zhenghong said quickly, “Unbelievable! Is this an alloy we don’t know about? No, that’s not right. It’s not a breakthrough in materials science. The material itself isn’t very strong. It seems like there’s some kind of structure inside, and these patterns are printed on the outside.”

    “A psionic weapon! The first psionic weapon!”

    Zhou Zhengde was still laughing loudly: “Mu, Wang Zheng, you’re amazing! Hahahaha!”

    Wang Jixuan: ……

    The scene before him made him quite suspicious.

    Did he take out too many things at once?

    However, this kind of magical artifact only has simple restrictions, relies on spiritual energy to enhance its sharpness, and has great limitations. It takes twelve seconds to complete one energy charge and cannot actively inject its own energy. Its only advantage is that it has a low threshold and can be used by ordinary people. It is indeed the 【lowest-level magical artifact】 that he can make.

    His spear is a hundred times better than this thing;

    Once he completes the Foundation Establishment stage and enters the Core Formation stage, even if he uses ordinary materials to make the lowest quality sword pellet, he can nurture flying swords, forge heart swords, and obtain blade beast crystal cores from three to four kilometers away.

    Zhou Zhengde was excited for more than ten minutes before finally calming down.

    They chatted briefly, and then Zhou Zhengde was to take the dagger away, to be carried by him personally and secretly to see his maternal grandfather.

    Before leaving, Zhou Zhengde noted down the ore Wang Jixuan wanted, watched Wang Jixuan forge iron, and then gave Wang Jixuan a bear hug.

    The latest novels are first published on 69shuba!

    “Brother, thank you so much… This technique is so important… Thank you!”

    Xiao Zhou choked up.

    Wang Jixuan laughed and said, “No need to be so polite. You can consider this a reward from your retainer.”

    Dongfang Zhenghong instructed:

    “Next, all non-combat personnel in Zone C will be evacuated, starting tomorrow at noon.”

    “Outside the defensive line of the medieval basin, the marked Blade Beast groups have begun to show unusual movements. It is very likely that the young King Insect reported by Ling Tong is coordinating the Blade Beast groups on the periphery.”

    “This is Wang Zheng, Teacher Wang.”

    “On behalf of the garrison of Fortress 76, I thank you for sharing the alien technology! Please follow the military’s instructions shortly and enter the safe zone to protect yourself!”

    “I know you might want to go hunting Blade Beasts.”

    “But technological breakthroughs have a far greater significance! The course of war cannot be influenced by an individual! Even the terrifying mech piloted by the Commander-in-Chief is a manifestation of humanity’s industrial strength. I hope you understand this, Professor Wang! Take full precautions to protect yourself!”

    “Okay, I will definitely protect my life.”

    Wang Jixuan nodded in agreement without hesitation.

    Although these guys reacted a bit too strongly, he exceeded his expectations.

    The military is more determined to protect him, and he has given Zhou Zhengde some feedback, which should be able to help the front lines of humanity in the future.

    Once he figures out the route to mass-producing the Demon-Slaying Dagger, matures the technology, and hands it over to the human civilization of this world, he can 【finish his business and leave, focusing on his cultivation】.

    It’s pretty good.

    With his successful breakthrough, it’s been a double celebration lately.

    “Let’s go!”

    Zhou Meiying urged:

    “Frontline support is coming soon, and we still have a lot of work to do… Teacher Wang, once the crisis is over, please come to my house with Zhengde. Auntie will cook for you.”

    “Okay, okay, you’re too kind, Auntie.”

    “Uh,” Zhou Zhengde hesitated, but ultimately decided to save face for his mother in front of his friends.

    As Zhou Zhengde was leaving, he seemed to suddenly remember something and took out a room key from his shirt pocket.

    He said, “This is a safe house. If there is any trouble later, you can go here to take refuge. It’s on the seventh floor of the fortress.”

    “good.”

    “As long as Blade Beasts appear around us, the newly arrived Minister of Biology, Qin Qin, will be arrested. Don’t worry about anything else, we’ll handle it.”

    “no problem.”

    “Keep it up! I’m counting on you! My best bro, I’ll be with you forever!”

    Zhou Zhengde clenched his fists and waved them slightly, leaving the supply station with a few glances back every few steps.

    Wang Jixuan finished the last mouthful of meat porridge in his bowl and turned to look at Ling Tong, who had been watching the show.

    “Didn’t we agree to report later?”

    “I just want them to see your true value,” Ling Tong said softly. “The military has been demanding that Zhou Zhengde hand over your information. He has been under a lot of pressure for you. This dagger is enough to make all the pressure disappear completely, and it will also help your brother.”

    brother.

    Some unfamiliar terms.

    Master Wang glanced at Uncle Tai: “Could I borrow Uncle Tai for a few days? I’d like to get myself a weapon.”

    “Okay, but he has to finish his own job first,” Ling Tong said. “A small-scale war is expected to break out within three days, and I will pilot a mecha into battle.”

    Wang Jixuan’s eyes lit up: “Can we get some crystal cores under the official name?”

    “That’s probably very difficult at this stage.”

    Ling Tong explained:

    “As per the Commander-in-Chief’s orders, I deliberately left Qin Qin’s communicator behind. She is probably already discussing things with the Thirteenth Headquarters of the Psionic Capital.”

    “We need to find a reason to attack the Psionic Capital, not just an individual researcher.”

    “The psionicists and the researchers of the Thirteen Institutes summoned Blade Beasts to attack the fortress and besiege the Battle Maiden. This is a very good political tool.”

    “Our next focus is on preparing for this war, aiming to eliminate the most Blade Beasts with minimal casualties… Wang Zheng, do you have time?”

    Wang Jixuan was pondering methods for producing large quantities of crystal cores when Ling Tong’s question made him nod without much thought.

    “Yes, the main body of my weapon is finished. Next are some additional functions.”

    “Then give me three hours, just to waste a little time, okay?”

    Ling Tong’s voice became a little gentler.

    Wang Jixuan initially wanted to refuse, feeling that it would be more meaningful for him to spend his time meditating, refining weapons, and learning about mechanics.

    After all, there was still a complex project to mass-produce the Demon-Slaying Daggers waiting for him.

    But when he saw Ling Tong’s eyes, he noticed for the first time a girl’s timidity and apprehension, which made Master Wang smile and nod gently.

    “Of course, six hours is fine.”

    Then……
