Bull Head Maze, arena.
When Lin Dong and Yun You You joined forces and fought hard to defeat 16 wooden puppet puppets, another 32 wooden puppet puppets walked out from the exit of the opposite tunnel.
"Let's stop here for today!" Lin Dong gestured for Yun You You to retreat. If he wasn't controlling a mecha and could use his own strength, he could destroy all the puppets with one slash. Unfortunately, there was a rule that forbade martial arts here. He could only be patient and challenge them one wave at a time. The first two waves of puppets were just normal models. Other than the New Miao Skill Arts, they didn't have any other abilities. However, from the third wave onwards, the difficulty of the challenge increased exponentially. Not only were there puppets with different abilities, but the number of puppets participating in the battle also doubled.
"Alright, I'll try them and leave immediately!" Yun You You, on the other hand, wanted to test if the combat power of these 32 wooden puppets had also increased by several folds before she left.
Whoosh!
Boom boom boom boom!
She controlled her new mecha and charged forward. She unleashed a series of attacks that were like a storm.
The same attack power hit the four puppets in the third wave. All the puppets fell to the ground. The fourth wave had eight puppets. Even with the appearance of the tank puppets, they couldn't completely defend against Yun You You's Explosive Punch.
By the time the fifth wave of 16 puppets entered the field, the damage caused by the Explosive Punch was already very weak. Apart from the puppet's own defense being greatly increased, the damage would also be quickly recovered by a "Commander Puppet" with a continuous recovery ability. If one wanted to win, they would have to be like Lin Dong just now. Under Yun You You's control, he had to use his mysterious body movement and super speed to break through the layers of protection of the five tank puppets and forcefully smash the commander puppet. Otherwise, it would be very difficult to completely defeat this team of puppets that had continuous recovery ability with just one person's strength.
The sixth wave consisted of thirty-two wooden puppets.
Yun You You controlled her new mecha and attacked the assassin puppet with the weakest defense ability while the opponents hadn't spread out their formation.
She hit at least 100 times. However, the assassin puppet that should have been broken and needed to use New Miao Skill Arts to recover only lost some wood shavings. Its current defense ability was comparable to the tank puppets in the fifth wave …
"Even if we can win, we'll probably have to fight for three days and three nights!" Yun You You sighed.
The defensive power of these wooden puppets doubled with each wave.
By the sixth wave, the weakest assassin puppet was equivalent to the strongest tank puppet. How could they continue fighting?
Fortunately, with the new mecha, both its attack and defence had been improved, and there was also the Five Elements Symbiotic Conversion, which ensured that there was sufficient energy. If it had been the old Mecha No.1, even if the opponent stood still and attacked as he pleased, Mecha No.1 would not have been able to chew through the hard outer shell of the puppet.
"Next, we need to gain an advantage in numbers. In such a large arena, there is enough space to display combat skills. However, we have too few people participating in the battle, so we don't have any advantages. If Qianjun and Ye Qianru's You You Yun You Can fight, we You You You. If you don you You, you won you You You You. The two of us will join forces to attack. It shouldn't be a problem to take down these 32 wooden puppets. "Yun You You felt that she wasn't able to unleash her true power.
"There should be a seventh, eighth, ninth, and even a tenth wave. If the difficulty keeps increasing like this, we still won't be able to pass the test for the time being. So, Youyou, don't be anxious. Wait until Qian Jun and Ye Qianru have leveled up and become strong enough to pass the test. "Lin Dong advised.
"Let's go!" Yun You You saw that the 32 puppets had completed their formation and were surrounding them. She quickly retreated to Lin Dong's side.
Then, they combined their strength.
They broke through the encirclement and returned to the entrance of their own tunnel.
Cheng Mingge saw that the two of them had returned safely. He patted his chest and said, "32 puppets are too many. My eyes can't see them all!"
"You You, you should let Blockhead go. It's too risky!" Qianjun was shocked.
"It's okay. Even if I can't win, I can still escape." Yun You You You smiled. However, she knew that everyone had good intentions. She waved her hand and said, "I won't do it in the next wave. If you want to test, let Blockhead go. I will stay behind to provide support! Speaking of which, it's only the sixth wave and it's already so difficult. It's really ridiculous. The assassin puppet that I beat up had a better defense than the tank puppet. "
"Next, we need a stronger mech." Lin Dong decided to improve the new mech and find better materials to optimize it.
"Mm, then let's make use of the time to practice!" Ye Qianru felt that she had improved a lot. However, she was still far from being able to fight alongside Lin Dong.
House of the Falling Stars.
Yun You You and the others were trying to fight together. Each of them piloted a new mech and practiced in the main hall on the first floor.
Lin Dong was thinking about how to improve the new mech with the Five Elements Conversion. From a certain perspective, the design of the new mech was already perfect. If he wanted to improve it to the next level, he had to overturn the core of the Five Elements Conversion and redesign it. However, if he did that, the battle experience that he was already familiar with would be completely removed. This was something that Lin Dong didn't want to see.
In the end, it was because he didn't have a deep enough understanding of the ancient mechanism.
Beginner was just the beginning.
After thinking about it repeatedly.
Lin Dong canceled a few plans.
He tore up the blueprints and calmed his mind. Then, he entered the Void World and started a new round of learning and understanding.
It was different from cultivation. When one's energy was depleted, he could absorb the energy from the Illusory God Gem to replenish it. He could also convert a small amount of pure Power of Faith. Learning the ancient mechanism was more of a waste of mental energy. As the endless mechanism diagrams, ancient secret skills and profound meaning of runes filled his mind, what Lin Dong had to do was to guard his mind. Bit by bit, he had to "collect" these extremely profound ancient mechanism secret skills and imprint them into his memory. Then, he would slowly combine them according to their individual characteristics and corresponding characteristics …
This was an extremely long and boring learning process.
There were no shortcuts.
He had to learn.
Comprehend.
He had to completely familiarize himself with every single one of them, understand them like the back of his hand, and then comprehend and organize his own mechanism knowledge.
If it was converted to real time, it might have been thirty years, or even more, before Lin Dong finally cleared all the traps, secret arts, and runes in his mind.
The Void World was filled with golden light. The light emitted from Lin Dong's body turned into billions of mechanism rune fragments.
They covered the entire world.
And then instantly retracted.
They turned into a ball of burning light that entered Lin Dong's head.
It allowed him to successfully break through his original level, break through, and enter a whole new realm.
Middle level ancient mechanism secret skills. In the Void World, where time did not flow, Lin Dong had suffered enough that only he knew how to raise his knowledge by one level. If not for the obstruction of the Ox-head Labyrinth Arena, without the immense pressure from the outside, Lin Dong estimated that he would not be able to break through in one go. He even wondered if he would have the courage to try again if he had known that breaking through to the middle level was going to be so difficult.
"It's too complicated, it's really as vast as the ocean. The more I learn, the more I feel like I've grasped too little." Lin Dong sighed deeply.
If grasping the beginner level ancient mechanism secret skills was like picking up a small rock at the foot of a mountain.
Then.
Grasping the middle level ancient mechanism secret skills was like personally digging out a beautiful and lustrous pearl from the endless sea.
The ocean was so rich, but what he could obtain was only a handful in his hands. If he wanted the entire ocean, no, forget about the ocean, just obtaining the resources of this beach of knowledge that he could see, who knew how many years of hard work he would need.
Lin Dong really wanted to invest more time and focus, to continue to comprehend in depth.
But his mind did not allow him to continue.
To prevent himself from overexerting his mind and completely collapsing into madness, Lin Dong used his fastest speed to leave the Void World, returning to the House of the Falling Stars …
"Don't persist for too long at one time, it's too dangerous!" Yun You You saw Lin Dong collapse on the ground the moment he returned and was shocked on the spot. Fortunately, she saw Lin Dong waving his hand weakly, then she realized that he was still in good spirits and had not fainted. Lin Dong could not explain, because once he tried to comprehend the ancient mechanism secret skills, the knowledge inside would spread and fill his entire mind. If he did not organize all those things properly, he would not be able to leave or return to the House of the Falling Stars, which would also be in a state of deep sleep. It was better to quietly comprehend in the Void World.
"Drink some water!" Cheng Mingge quickly fed Lin Dong a mouthful of Spirit Spring Water, allowing his mind to be greatly nourished and recover rapidly.
"Don't worry everyone, I'm fine. I've made it through this stage, I'll get better in the future." Lin Dong had now grasped the middle level ancient mechanism secret skills, so he was more confident in clearing the stage.
Lin Dong had a good night's sleep and recovered.
While Yun You You and the rest were practicing.
He entered the first level.
In the sealed world of the Demon Refining Pagoda's first level, there was a huge amount of wood resources.
Lin Dong felt that the original wood was not the best choice. Now that he had time, he decided to go in and see if he could find better wood to refine a better mecha. If there was nothing on the first level, he would return to the Cultivation World. There was definitely no lack of good wood there. If there was no other way, he could exchange with some sects. For example, Liukong Green Leaf Sect was a good trading partner.
As for the thousand-year Bone Dragon Wood, it was too precious. No matter how squandered Lin Dong was, he could not afford to squander with the thousand-year Bone Dragon Wood.
On the first level, Lin Dong flew one round after another.
As long as it was a good wood.
He would mark it.
However, among all the wood that he marked, Lin Dong was not the best choice that he was 100% interested in.
It wasn't until he entered the first floor for the 19th time that Lin Dong suddenly sensed a very strange fluctuation when he flew over a short and thick forest. This fluctuation didn't spread outwards, but rather absorbed his spiritual power to explore …
There was a plant that could absorb the waves of his spiritual exploration?
Lin Dong was stunned at first, but when he reacted, he was ecstatic. Eh? Could it be this?
In the Cultivation World, there were more than ten types of trees that could absorb or completely block the spiritual waves from the outside world. All of them were extremely precious spiritual trees. Most of them were transplanted into the mountain by the Cultivation Sects, or used as the core of the array, or at the foot of the mountain as the protective array barrier of the mountain. Amongst these ten plus types of spirit trees, practically all of them were tall and large, and every single one of them towered into the clouds and were capable of supporting the heavens and the earth. There was only one type that didn't have a shocking appearance. Its trunk was thick and strong, and it was short like a winter melon. It was greatly different from the other tall spirit trees …
