Surrounded by the immersive Grand Illusionary Land, Li Yao felt that he was really in a splendid auditorium, appreciating the debate of the eight college students on the podium. Although many of their theories were still immature, Li Yao was greatly enlightened by the bold and unrestrained nature of the young people.
Flying Star University and Heavenly Saints Institute?
Li Yao had left a deep impression on the academic standards of the two universities.
If he could enter one of the two best universities of the Flying Star Sector, it would certainly be beneficial for his future training.
Of course, with his capability in the high level of the Building Foundation Stage, he would not join them as a regular college student.
Li Yao believed that with his ability, even if he joined one of the two universities and became a young lecturer, it would be more than enough.
However, the regular lecturers had heavy teaching tasks and might not be able to touch the cutting-edge Cultivation theories. They had to work their way up step by step. Li Yao did not have that much time to dawdle.
Li Yao thought to himself, I'll have to figure out how to proceed on the road ahead.
For the next seven days, he spent almost all his time in the World of the Crystal Suit and read all the top five thousand popular questions and answers.
Due to the limitations of the Spiritual Nexus, the questions could not be answered in a very professional way. But for Li Yao, they had given him a comprehensive understanding of the refining theories of the Flying Star Sector.
These theories were then combined with the classical refining theories as well as the refining theories of the Tian Yuan world. A mysterious reaction took place. Many questions that had been puzzling him for a long time were now answered by analogy. Everything was clear now.
With the basic theories in hand, Li Yao could begin to modify his Crystal Suit.
He had three Crystal Suit in his hands right now, namely the Rockman, the Eight Arm Suit, and the Mystic Skeleton Suit.
Although the Mystic Skeleton Suit had a shocking combat ability, it had been attached with too much Skeleton Dragon's flesh and scraps of ancient magical equipment. It was inconvenient to use it in public.
The Rockman was convenient to operate, but it was too low-quality. It was only a piece of civil magical equipment. Its combat ability was seriously insufficient.
The problem with the Eight Arm Crystal Suit was that the crystal processor was too much. It was not compatible with Li Yao's fighting style.
Therefore, Li Yao planned to rent a Crystal Suit Modification Room as soon as he arrived in the Thousand Sails Star Zone. He planned to modify Eight Arm to increase his combat power. On the other hand, the combat mode was completely changed.
This was the first time that he had modified an advanced Crystal Suit of the Flying Star Sector. For safety reasons, he decided to try it in the virtual world of the Crystal Suit first.
When he first entered the world of the Crystal Suit, the system gave him ten thousand crystal coins, which he used to build a maintenance workshop in his personal space. He also bought a virtual eight-armed Crystal Suit.
Just as he was about to dismantle the virtual Eight-Arm, he received a private message. Someone had invited him to answer a question.
Li Yao was stunned. Although he was an expert, he had never answered any questions before, so he was not well-known. Why would someone invite him?
He clicked on the message and realized what was going on.
The question was, "Why did the ancient Cultivators from forty thousand years ago all ride on flying swords? Isn't this way very aerodynamic? What are the disadvantages of the ancient flying swords compared to modern flying swords? "
It turned out that it was a question about classical refining theories.
In the Flying Star Sector, there were not many experts who studied classical refining theories. In the world of the Crystal Suit, there were even fewer experts who revealed their identity.
According to Li Yao's profile, he was an expert in classical refining theories. It had been verified by the system.
It seemed that the person who asked the question had done a search. He had sent invitations to most of the classical refining experts.
Pondering for a moment, Li Yao realized that he had received the selfless gifts of the Cultivators of the Flying Star Sector after studying hard for seven days. It would be inappropriate for him to just take the gifts and not ask for them. It was better for him to communicate with his fellow Cultivators.
He opened the question and browsed through it.
Below this question, there were already over a hundred responses. The first few responses were all very detailed and detailed, with a large number of pictures attached. After the question, there were also many fellow daoists who continued to discuss. Many of them were arguing very fiercely, and the atmosphere was quite good.
Li Yao glanced at the answers, but he frowned. He felt that some of the answers were too biased.
Pondering for a moment, Li Yao began to write his answer.
"Thank you for the invitation.
"I'm just a fan of classical refining theories. However, I'd like to object to the first answer.
"There's a saying in the world of cultivators: 'First say' yes', then ask 'why'. First of all, this question is not very rigorous. Not all ancient cultivators rode on flying swords. There were many ways to ride on flying swords, and there were three most common ones."
"Furthermore, compared with modern flying swords, although ancient flying swords have some disadvantages, they also have their own advantages. I even think that the Cultivation world today has not fully explored the full potential of ancient magical equipment represented by ancient swords. They have underestimated the wisdom of their predecessors."
"Let's talk about riding on flying swords first. Riding on flying swords is just one of the ways. Other than that, there are also ways to combine oneself with the sword and fly away in a rainbow. Sometimes, the person and the sword do not move at all, but their telepathic thoughts will be mixed with the aura of the sword, allowing them to dash thousands of kilometers away instantly and kill people without leaving a trace. They are indeed much faster than the flying swords of today.
"Below are the simple diagrams of the few ways of riding on flying swords.
"Riding on flying swords alone does seem a bit silly. It is not aerodynamic, and the speed is not high, either.
"However, there are three great advantages to such a way.
"Firstly, the agility of the Cultivator will be greatly improved. The Cultivator will be able to perform small-scale maneuvers within a small area. It is most suitable for turning and hovering in the tempestuous wind.
"Secondly, the Cultivator's skin is in direct contact with the air. Their senses of spiritual waves in the air will be keener, and it will be easier for them to detect the traces of the enemy.
"Thirdly, in case of an enemy attack, the Cultivator will be able to take out his magical equipment and enter the battle state very conveniently!
"It must be noted that in a battle between experts, 0.1 seconds may determine life and death. With these three advantages, it is not unacceptable for the Cultivator to be slower than the Cultivator.
"Ancient flying swords. In fact, they contain three great techniques which have been passed down to this day. They have evolved into three different magical equipment.
"Firstly, the flying shuttle, which has replaced the ancient flying swords, is the ability to carry people.
"Secondly, the bullets and the disposable miniature flying swords have replaced the ancient flying swords and turned them into sword pellets. The flying swords are the ability to injure people.
"Thirdly, the hand-held swords and sabers represented by the chainsword. They have replaced the ancient flying swords' close-range combat ability and the ability to trigger the aura of the sword.
"Today's Cultivators are able to study and deepen the specialization of magical equipment. They have separated the three great techniques from each other and developed them separately. Whether it is the flying shuttle, the bullets, or the swords and sabers, they have all developed thousands of techniques and formed a complete system.
"But don't forget that the reason why we can build such three major systems is that our Cultivator civilization is highly developed and has extremely strong logistics, research, and production capabilities.
"Today's Cultivators can easily buy suitable flying shuttles, flying swords, guns, and bullets in magical equipment stores. Once they are damaged, they can easily be repaired. Even if they are directly discarded, the loss is not big.
"But in ancient times, a Cultivator was walking in the wilderness. It was impossible for him to get a large amount of supplies, and it was extremely difficult for him to find a place to repair his magical equipment.
"If he was driving a flying shuttle and holding a chainsword and a gun, the power of the shuttle would be great. But what if it was damaged?
"Therefore. The ancient flying swords could only combine many techniques into one and simplify the various techniques as much as possible. Even if they were crudely built, at least they had to be sturdy, durable, and convenient enough to meet the needs of an ancient Cultivator for a long journey in the wilderness.
"Today's Cultivators are lucky. We have a stable society, many open and tolerant Cultivation sects, many fellow Daoists who work together, professional magical equipment manufacturers, and the ubiquitous Spiritual Nexus. Therefore, our flying swords, our magical equipment, can continuously evolve, evolve, and evolve.
"The ancient Cultivators did not have these. Most of the time, they were like travelers trudging in the wilderness. In order to meet the needs of survival, their flying swords were destined to be in a relatively primitive form.
"Even so, there are still many ingenious designs in the ancient flying swords that are worth our in-depth study.
"For example, the 'Demon Slaying Wolf Fang Sword' refined by the Blood Wolf Sect has a very interesting three-edged technique. I have rarely seen such a design in today's flying swords. Below is a simple drawing of the Demon Slaying Wolf Fang Sword. Everyone can study it …"
Li Yao's telepathic thoughts were running like thousands of horses. He could not stop once he started writing. He wrote tens of thousands of words, listed more than ten ancient flying swords, and described more than thirty ancient rune arrays. After more than half an hour, he was finally done. He felt quite satisfied, too.
Taking a long breath in satisfaction, he sent his answer and forgot about it. He entered his personal space to modify the Eight Arm Crystal Suit.
…
"Cao Le, Cao Le, hurry up and get up. You've been slapped in the face. Aiya, this answer is really reasonable and convincing. It completely refutes you to the point that you're beaten to a pulp. Hahahaha, just looking at it makes my cheeks hurt!"
In the dormitory of the Flying Sword Department of Flying Star University, one of the two best colleges of the Flying Star Sector in Heavenly Saints City, a fatty was grimacing and gloating at his roommate who was lying on the bed.
Cao Le yawned and took off the crystal processor that was designed for the Grand Illusionary Land. Blinking his crimson eyes, he said, "Fatty Sun, cut it out. I'm watching a match. Long Feihu has won ninety-seven times in a row. Impressive!"
Cao Le was a talented student of Flying Star University. He considered himself an expert of flying swords. Long Feihu, the ace of the Heavenly Sword Arena, was using a super enormous flying sword. He was Long Feihu's loyal fan and would not miss any of his matches.
"You are still in the mood to watch a match?" Little Fatty smiled cunningly. "You are an expert of flying swords. The answer you posted on the Nexus yesterday, the one about the comparison of ancient flying swords and modern flying swords, was utterly crushed. It was truly tragic and inhumane!"
"What!"
