"How is it possible?"
As if somebody had stabbed him in the bottom, the host shouted at the top of his voice, "Master Dustless, although I am not a refiner, I know that a crystal chip is one of the most central components of modern magical equipment. Every crystal chip the size of a fingernail has been carved with at least ten thousand extremely tiny spiritual energy circuits! The spiritual energy circuits are distributed on at least ten layers, forming a 3D structure that is stacked on top of each other! "
"To carve a crystal chip, the precision has to be in the micron or sub-micron level, which is equal to one thousandth or one ten-thousandth of the diameter of a hair!
"Only after the explosive development of the crystal processor technology and the crystal chip manufacturing magical equipment such as' low-light etching machines' that could be controlled by crystal processors appeared did the micro-chip technology really become mature!
"But right now, you are telling us that a refiner can carve a crystal chip with his bare hands? Master Dustless, you are not kidding, are you? "
Master Dustless smiled bitterly. "I know the technology of crystal chips much better than you do. I believe that the audience who has the slightest common sense about magical equipment should know how difficult and complicated it is to carve a crystal chip. Therefore, we all call the refinement of crystal chips the peak of the magical equipment industry!
"But the fact is right in front of our eyes. Contestant Li Yao's preparations and movements cannot be a second possibility.
"He is carving a crystal chip with his bare hands!"
The host breathed heavily, as if he were pulling his hair hard. "This is crazy! This is unbelievable! Ten thousand micron-level spiritual energy circuits can't have the slightest mistake. If one of the spiritual energy circuits goes wrong, the entire crystal chip will be wasted!
"And he only has half an hour at most, half an hour!"
"How can his hands be so stable? How could his hand speed be faster than the 'low-light etching machine'? Then, wouldn't his capability be even higher than that of a refiner in the Core Formation Stage? "
Bi Luoling, another guest and a refiner from the Red Line School, said, "You can't make such a comparison.
"As we all know, the refiners in the ancient world of Cultivators paid a lot of attention to the micro-carving with their hands. Some of the legendary refiners, such as Master Ou Yezi of the Hundred Smelting Clan, could even carve tens of thousands of rune arrays on a piece of magical equipment the size of a grain of rice!
"But in the modern world of cultivation. Because of the development of crystal processors, most of the modern refiners pay more attention to the utilization of crystal processors. "
"You want to engrave a chip? Then, you can do it through a piece of magical equipment such as a 'Low-Light Etching Machine', which is both fast and precise. "
"Under the condition that we have a crystal processor. Why would a rational refiner waste so much time practicing the skills of 'carving chips with human flesh'? This is purely a matter of perception. It has nothing to do with strength or realm. "
"For example, in modern society, fire is everywhere. You can buy a lighter with two fire array glyphs for one dollar."
"Who would practice 'drilling wood to make fire' in such an environment? Even if you cultivate to the extreme, what's the point? "
The host was stunned for a long time before he said, "Madam Bi. Are you saying that Contestant Li Yao's technique is like drilling wood to make fire? It's … completely useless? "
Bi Luoling smiled bitterly. "Generally speaking, yes. But things are different right now. I really can't see through Contestant Li Yao. What kind of environment and school could give birth to such a … freak!"
Li Yao sat in front of his workbench. His heart was as calm as still water. His eyes were burning. After taking a few breaths to adjust himself, he completely forgot that he was in the middle of a fierce competition. All the audience around him seemed to have turned into dust. The exclamations of the host and the guests in midair became insignificant, too.
His mind was completely devoted to the chip in the small space.
What he was going to carve was not a super complicated integrated mainframe control chip but the simplest single-function control chip. However, it still contained 12,330 circuits of spiritual energy.
The chips were as thin as cicada's wings. They would be divided into eleven layers by etching. More than 12,000 chips would be evenly distributed among the eleven layers. They would not interfere with each other, and they would have to be connected to each other according to the most mysterious rules.
It was like building a maze on a grain of sand. It was an impossible task.
At the very least, it was impossible for him to complete it in half an hour.
If it were two months ago, Li Yao wouldn't have been confident that he could do it.
But right now, after the cruel training of the Purple Ring Sword Ants, his hand speed had soared to a whole new level. The stability of his hands was much better than that of the artificial limbs of the highest level.
He was prepared to use this pair of scarred hands to declare war on this insurmountable peak!
"There were no crystal processors in the world of ancient Cultivators. All the magical equipment was polished by the hands of refiners bit by bit!
"Today, let me polish the control chip that has gathered the essence of the modern Cultivators with the ancient refining methods from forty thousand years ago!"
Spiritual energy surged out of Li Yao's body. His hands were emitting light. Seven extremely tiny mystic rays were condensed in front of the seven carving needles between his fingers, too.
The seven mystic rays were no more than one thousandth the diameter of a hair. It was impossible to distinguish them with the naked eye. Only under the magnification of Li Yao's special head-mounted microscope could he see the seven unparalleled sabers in the microscopic form!
The seven microscopic light sabers had different waves in different frequencies. They could penetrate into different levels of the chip and perform the photolithography at the same time!
Li Yao closed his eyes and counted down in his heart. Three seconds later, his eyelids suddenly opened. Inside his eyes, bright golden halos surrounded his pupils, which were zooming in and out like crystal cameras with a high resolution!
His body was motionless, but the explosive noises of tigers and dragons were bursting out in an instant!
The audience was immediately in turmoil.
After such a long match, most of the audience were tired and about to fall asleep. However, they were woken up by the incessant explosions and pricked up their ears at the same time.
The host shouted, "What's going on? Contestant Li Yao seemed to be sitting still before his workbench, but terrifying noises were echoing in front of him, as if an invisible beast was feasting! Let's focus our crystal cameras on his hands and zoom in. Ah. Contestant Li Yao's hands have turned into a cluster of white mist and produced thousands of blurred shadows! "
"They are not blurred shadows!"
Bi Luoling's voice cut off the host's roar like a saber. "They are sonic booms!
"Every finger of Li Yao's hands is moving at a very tiny distance. He is moving at a high speed and breaking the sonic booms!
"The roars of tigers and dragons that we heard were made when his hands broke the sonic booms!
"His hand speed has exceeded the limits! He is carving a chip at a supersonic speed! "
The host shrieked, "His hands are moving at a supersonic speed? Is there a need to be so unbelievable? "
The audience was in an uproar. Many of the audience stood up and stared at the magnified picture in midair in bewilderment.
In the VIP room, the experienced refiners who had seen a lot of things were looking at each other in bewilderment, too.
Breaking the sonic booms with one's hands was something that only refiners in the Core Formation Stage could do.
But the capability that Li Yao had shown from the beginning to the end was at least in the middle of the Core Formation Stage. He was at most in the middle level of the Building Foundation Stage. More importantly, he was only in his early twenties!
What kind of horrifying training had he received to allow his hand speed to soar to such a high level?
The managers of the three Crystal Suit Centers looked at each other and suddenly retreated to a corner at the same time. They contacted the HR department of their respective organizations through the Spiritual Nexus and drafted a tempting contract as soon as possible!
The manager of the Red Line School was regretting his decision so much that his intestines were turning green. They had the opportunity to recruit such a freak last night, but they had missed it because they had been too conservative!
The other two competitors were glowing with greed. Judging from their greedy looks, the 'Genius Competition' this time must be unprecedentedly fierce. They would have to pay a fortune to recruit such a monster!
Opposite to Li Yao and opposite to Li Yao, Mo Tianshui had stopped moving. His nose was almost pressed against the crystal wall as he stared at Li Yao.
The genius heir of a family of sword forgers who had lived for more than a thousand years felt his heart pounding and his face pale.
"It's impossible. It's absolutely impossible!
"His hands are moving at a supersonic speed, and he is carving chips with human flesh. This is outrageous!
"This is a psychological tactic!
"His hand speed may be really fast, but his hands alone are not enough. How can he carve a real chip with his bare hands? He must be bluffing!
"No. I have to calm down! I've always crushed my opponents in every competition since I was a kid! This time will be no exception! "
At this moment, the crafting furnace behind him emitted an ear-piercing alarm.
He turned around and looked. Mo Tianshui immediately exclaimed.
On the control light beam, several parameters had turned crimson. One of them was even emitting black brilliance!
"Not good!"
The components that he had been refining for fifteen minutes were completely wasted!
Mo Tianshui gritted one of his molars so hard that it was broken into pieces.
Li Yao's hands trembled rapidly as he changed directions, turned, and bounced at a supersonic speed. Driving the seven microcarving knives, he left clear circuits of spiritual energy on the chip.
Twenty minutes later, he finished the last cut. His eyes suddenly turned black, and his body shook. He almost fell backward.
His hands returned to absolute stillness. But then, bright flames dashed out of them.
Because of the excessive friction between his hands and the air, the temperature of his hands had soared. They were burning like meteorites that had fallen into the atmosphere.
Li Yao took a long breath in relief. There was some tiredness on his face, but he was more relaxed than anything else.
Even without the protection of spiritual energy, the burning pain of his hands was less than one tenth of the pain of being bitten by the Purple Ring Sword Ants.
Just like that, while his hands were burning, he did a few exercises and warmed up his muscles. Then, he slowly walked to a corner of the refining workshop.
A metal trough was placed in the corner, which was filled with bright green nutrition liquids.
During the six hours of high-intensity refining, the refiner had to take a break every once in a while to maintain his hands with the nutrition liquids.
Li Yao inserted his burning hands into the nutrition liquids. The flames died out immediately.
With his hands as the center, two swirls immediately appeared inside the nutrition liquids and began to revolve rapidly!
Half a minute later, Li Yao retracted his hands. The level of the nutrition liquids had dropped by one third!
"One third of the nutrition liquids have been swallowed by Li Yao's hands! His, his hands are like two ferocious beasts! "
The host's voice was extremely dry.
After going through so many unbelievable scenes, he didn't even have the strength to shout anymore.
The five hundred chapters were both a destination and a new starting point!
After the fierce battle against Skeleton Dragon, the desolation in the sea of stars, the horror of the True Fusion and the space swirls, Li Yao had finally grown up!
In the first 500 chapters, most of the time, he was just a small character struggling bitterly, an insignificant character.
But right now, Li Yao, who had advanced into the high level of the Building Foundation Stage and was about to break into the peak of the Building Foundation Stage and even the Core Formation Stage, was already a well-deserved expert in the past forty thousand years of Cultivation!
The path of an expert was to get stronger the more they fought!
