After Li Yao finished his speech, the refiners didn't discuss immediately. Instead, they frowned and stared at the void in front of them, deep in thought.
The meeting room was caught in a weird silence.
Li Yao's idea was very simple. The valve design was a mature technology in the Xing Yao Federation, too. However, all the Crystal Suit in the past had emphasized stealth and stealth, which had mired the experts and scholars in a vicious circle.
Now that he had jumped out of this vicious cycle, he indeed felt enlightened and enlightened.
"Yes. Although the valve design will increase the cost of components, the cost will be significantly lower than that of the crystal reactor with Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures. The cost will be reduced by at least one fifth. Also, we don't need to worry about the limitation of raw materials. As long as we have a large enough magical equipment factory, we can produce as many crystal suits as we want!
"In fact, we don't need to worry too much about the stealth ability and invisibility. We've redesigned the crystal reactor in the first place. The possibility of it exploding in the normal state is next to none. Only in a battlefield where spiritual energy is surging and bombardment is it likely to explode due to the intense shock and corrosion."
"But since it's a head-on battle, stealth and concealment skills aren't that important!"
"The most important thing is that we don't need to change our original design on a large scale in such a way. The speed of the project will be greatly improved. Chances are that we will be able to launch a prototype within a month!
"Directing the escaping spiritual energy inside the crystal reactor to the magical equipment that needs to be charged is a very good idea! We can even design a crystal cannon with powerful firepower that can be activated by the escaping spiritual energy inside the crystal reactor. It will definitely be very powerful! "
Li Yao's design seemed to have opened a window to a new world for the refiners. The theories of the experts and scholars were much more profound than Li Yao's after all. Their eyes immediately lit up, and they all started talking at once, throwing out countless complicated follow-up plans.
Some of the more impatient refiners. Some of them even turned on the light beam and began to draw the sketches. Their faces were flushed with anger.
The debate lasted for more than three hours, until midnight. All the refiners were still in high spirits, and their interest had not diminished at all.
"It seems that Li Yao's idea today has indeed brought a lot of inspiration to everyone. However, it is impossible to determine the final plan in such a short period of time. Why don't all teachers go back first? Sort out the parts that you are responsible for from beginning to end, and we will continue the discussion tomorrow! "
Yuan Manqiu had no choice but to stand up and say with a smile.
"Li Yao, I really don't know how you came up with this idea. It's too rare!"
Bai Yede had been busy drawing the designs of the crystal reactors. At this moment, he had drawn three crystal reactors with spiritual pressure valves. He compared them and smiled.
Li Yao and Yuan Manqiu looked at each other and pondered for a moment. He said calmly,
"I didn't come up with this idea alone. It's the result of my research with the other teachers and senior brothers."
"Teacher? Senior Brother? "
Bai Yede and all the other refiners were stunned.
All the teachers of the Refining Department were here. From the looks of it, it was the first time they had seen such a design.
As for Senior Brothers, Li Yao was the only remaining senior student of the Refining Department, so how could he have a Senior Brother?
Li Yao smiled and continued.
"Teachers, I have a piece of good news for you."
…
Three days later, in the wee hours of the morning.
In Li Yao's laboratory No. 2.
Li Yao and Yuan Manqiu discussed for a long time. Eventually, they decided to announce the discovery of the Phantom Entities to the public.
Anyway, Professor Mo Xuan and the teachers and students of the Refining Department who had sacrificed themselves in the explosion were worthy of their respect. They were all well-deserved heroes, martyrs who had sacrificed themselves on the road of cultivation.
Although they were dead … Their Dao was not gone. Their will was still there. Their spirit would live forever!
Even if they were gone one day, they should at least let everyone know how hard they had worked!
However, the observation of the Phantom Entities had always been a big problem in the Cultivation world.
Including Yuan Manqiu, no matter how they observed, perceived, or adjusted the frequency of their brainwaves, they could not detect the existence of the Phantom Entities.
Li Yao was still the only observer.
Also, his observation was getting weaker and weaker.
It felt like there were two mountains thousands of meters apart in the middle of the night. Clouds and mist were lingering between the mountains. Lightning flashed, thunder rumbled, and a storm raged in the sky.
Li Yao was climbing on one of the mountains with difficulty. He was holding a torch that was about to go out.
Professor Mo Xuan and his companions, on the other hand, were climbing on another mountain in the form of Phantom Entities. They were also holding a few dying torches.
The two parties were separated by darkness, mist, lightning, thunder, and storm. It was extremely difficult for them to communicate with each other.
However, as long as they knew that they were still there and were still climbing the endless peak together with him, it was enough!
After the problem of the crystal reactor was solved, Project Mystic Skeleton progressed very quickly. All the refiners were working day and night, forgetting to eat and sleep. Breakthroughs were made in several key units.
As for Li Yao, he dived into the No. 1 refining workshop where the 1st Generation Tai'e furnace was placed. It took him three days and three nights to craft a piece of antique magical equipment.
The innermost layer was a coating made of Flowing Silver Powder and Ice Soul Grass Essence. Like a mirror, it could reflect most of the spiritual waves.
The middle layer was the marrow crystal, Smoke Mica, which was one of the marrow crystals that Li Yao had found in his Cosmos Ring. It was soft and mild and had the effect of nourishing the soul. With a little bit of its powder, it was possible to refine pills that could calm the mind and soothe the soul.
Li Yao had spent a lot of money on it. He took half of the Smoke Mica and hollowed it out from the middle.
As for the outer shell, it was made of a rather common material, the Star-Eyed Lead. This material could also block part of the spiritual waves. From the outside, it looked like a black jade inlaid with stars. It was very beautiful and was commonly used to make jewelry.
By combining the materials of the three layers, hundreds of rune arrays that could calm the mind and gather spiritual waves were carved in the middle of each layer, a Soul Condensing Pendant was made.
It was a piece of magical equipment that was recorded in the secret arts of the Hundred Smelting Clan, which was used to nurture souls and spirits.
Although the shell of the crystal reactor was solid, it was not a piece of magical equipment that could be used to nurture spirits.
Besides, there was a crack on the surface of the crystal reactor, through which electromagnetic storms and cosmic radiation could pass. The Phantom Entities inside were affected.
Therefore, Li Yao had specially crafted the Soul Condensing Pendant as the new home for the Phantom Entities.
Li Yao thought of something. A small hole appeared on the Soul Condensing Pendant. Li Yao aimed the hole at the crack of the crystal reactor. He called in his heart.
His communication with the Phantom Entities was intermittent. He hadn't found a reliable way yet. He could only try his luck again and again.
After more than half an hour, when he was in a trance, he sensed that transparent fireflies were flying out of the crack of the crystal reactor.
Compared to three days ago … At this moment, the fireflies had shrunk by more than half. The green light around them was dim, too.
It seemed that the information that Li Yao sensed three days ago must have consumed too much of the energy of the Phantom Entities.
Li Yao meditated on the Soul Condensing Pendant's technique in his brain.
A moment later, a gentle breeze seemed to have blown over the secret chamber. All the Phantom Entities were swaying and entering the Soul Condensing Pendant one after another like candlelight.
Li Yao locked the Soul Condensing Pendant carefully with a barrier, leaving only a tiny hole. It was just enough for one of his spiritual threads to pierce into the pendant.
Hanging the Soul Condensing Pendant around his neck, Li Yao clenched it. Immediately, he felt that his palm was burning. A feeble but firm force flowed into his limbs through his palm.
"Now, professors and senior brothers, let's create a miracle together!"
…
At one o'clock in the night, the floating mountain of the Refining Department was still ablaze with lights.
Everybody was in high spirits and full of energy.
When Li Yao walked into the floating mountain, he felt that the atmosphere today was somewhat different.
It was as if a ladle of hot oil had been poured on his burning fighting will.
"Professor. Did something happen? "
Li Yao asked Yuan Manqiu curiously.
He had been so focused on refining the Soul Condensing Pendant that he hadn't paid attention to the outside world.
"Probably because of the stimulation of Deep Sea University. Star Nebula University and the three major sword training sects held press conferences. They brought out their MP crystal suit models, too! "
While speaking, Yuan Manqiu turned on her crystal processor and played two videos.
"Star Nebula University and the three major sword training sects are the two that Zuo Feijing mentioned in the press conference that we should pay special attention to, right?"
Li Yao was refreshed.
"Yes. Judging from the performance and design introduced in the press conference, the Crystal Suit of the two schools is indeed unique. It's not much worse than the Tiger King's!"
Yuan Manqiu said.
Li Yao's eyes brightened. He studied it carefully.
The MP Crystal Suit refined by Star Nebula University was called "Mournful Mist Battlesuit".
At first, he thought that it was just a light Crystal Suit that abandoned all heavy equipment and walked the path of light and agile.
But now it seemed that, apart from speed and agility, the biggest feature of this Crystal Suit was that it used a lot of interference, confusion, and resistance magical equipment.
It could interfere with the brain of demon beasts and create mental attacks from thousands of meters away.
This was a very rare Crystal Suit that was good at mental attacks, illusion attacks, and brainwave interference!
"Facing the Crystal Suit of Star Nebula University, the enemy is like being trapped in a fog, unfathomable, isolated, and helpless! Therefore, we named this Crystal Suit 'Mournful Mist Battlesuit'! "
The spokesperson of Star Nebula University said proudly.
The Crystal Suit jointly developed by the three major swordsman sects was very different.
Although Li Yao had guessed that the three major swordsman sects would take advantage of their advantages in the refining of flying swords, he didn't expect that they would be crazy to such an extent. The entire Crystal Suit was densely packed with flying swords, like a giant steel hedgehog.
The name of this Crystal Suit was simple and straightforward. It was called "Ten Thousand Swords"!
"The enemy is very strong!"
After watching the two videos, Li Yao felt a surge of emotions. Like many refiners, his fighting spirit soared a hundred times.
The Soul Condensing Pendant in front of his chest turned into a hot iron that was burning from his chest to his heart.
He seemed to be able to hear the roars of the Phantom Entities. His entire body was burning.
"Tiger King? Mournful Mist? Ten Thousand Swords?
"Very good!"
