The debate between the two experts of Yuanying came to an end.
After only one morning, so much information had been presented to all the Cultivators that it would take them quite a while to digest and absorb it despite their computational ability.
Therefore, there were no other meetings scheduled for the afternoon.
All the Cultivators were deep in thought, frowning, in their own meeting rooms.
Li Yao crouched deep inside the soft chair, like an animal that had buried itself deep in its nest when it sensed the approaching danger.
It was a debate without any suspense. Si Koulie had been utterly defeated.
Compared to the Ice God Project, the Grand Illusionary Soldier Project had obvious advantages. The entire project was perfect, if not too perfect!
Li Yao did not know if there were any loopholes in the plan, but his intuition told him that he did not like the plan.
He narrowed his eyes and bit his fingernails. Sweat the size of soybeans was rolling down his forehead again.
After pondering for a long time, his eyes suddenly bulged, and the corners of his eyes were almost torn apart. Taking a deep breath, he looked at the two respected designers of the Crystal Suit and said solemnly, "Master Xue, Master Huangpu, what I'm going to say next may be too whimsical and appalling. You may think that I'm being paranoid, but I have to say it anyway."
"Wait."
Xue Yuanxin raised his hand and interrupted him. He knocked his head and said, "Let me take a guess first. Are you going to say that the Grand Illusionary Soldier Project is vulnerable to the Temple of Immortals' infiltration despite its beautiful appearance? If we do produce thousands of Grand Illusionary Soldiers, but the Temple of Immortals invades the star brain and controls it instead, we will be caught in our own trap!"
"There's more to it."
Huangpu Bo said, "About that. Just now, Xiao Xuance, CEO of the Grand Illusionary Group, has offered a solution. However, if Xiao Xuance has ill intentions and the entire Grand Illusionary Group has been infiltrated by the Temple of Immortals, they may have set up traps in the project since the very beginning, such as telepathic thoughts that can hibernate for years. When the time is right, the Temple of Immortals will be able to seize control of the Flying Star Sector easily! "
"Huh?"
Li Yao was dumbfounded and almost fell off his chair. He stammered, "How — how did you know?"
Xue Yuanxin and Huangpu Bo glanced at each other. The two old men couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Xue Yuanxin said, "Xiaosha. Don't think that the two of us are over a hundred years old now. We were also young once. There were times when we were thirteen or fourteen years old, when our imaginations ran wild. "
"I remember when I was in middle school," Huangpu Bo said, "I liked to read magazines such as' Fantasy World 'the most. The crystal processors would lose control when the Spiritual Nexus was hacked. Themes such as puppet beasts betraying one another would be commonplace at that time! "
"That's right. I remember there was a very classic Dazzling Light Mirage called 'The Great War of the Immortals and Demons'. Until now, dozens of episodes have been filmed, and there are always such plots in them. "
"Many refiners are read in such novels and stories. He was deeply attracted to Xuan Ying and developed an interest in magical equipment and the Spiritual Nexus. In the end, he embarked on the path of refining! Do you think we haven't thought of the concerns you have? "
"That's right?"
Li Yao scratched his hair and blushed all of a sudden. He said somewhat embarrassedly, "Please forgive me, seniors. I've never read such novels or movies on Iron Plateau. Perhaps I was oversensitive."
"No, no, no. It's perfectly normal and necessary for you to have such concerns."
Xue Yuanxin said solemnly, "Stellar-level magical equipment can change the fate of a Sector. It's not unreasonable no matter how extreme the situation is!
"Assuming that we choose the Grand Illusionary Soldier Project, once it is fully implemented, the Temple of Immortals will certainly try to control it!
"Speaking of which, any piece of Stellar-level magical equipment can be hacked.
"Now that we have proposed the Grand Illusionary Soldier Project, you are worried that it will be controlled by the Temple of Immortals. Is it impossible for the Temple of Immortals to seize Ice King if it is modified into an invincible warship? Or maybe, if we come up with other Stellar-level magical equipment, it will definitely not be infiltrated by the enemy. We can't do nothing just because we are scared of being infiltrated and controlled by the Temple of Immortals, can we? "
Li Yao thought for a moment and said, "That does make sense."
"Make bold assumptions and verify them carefully," Huangfu Bo said.
"Novels and reality are different after all. Of course, we will not activate the Grand Illusionary Soldier Project recklessly just because of a few words from Xiao Xuance.
"The technical demonstration will take at least a year and a half. It will not be carried out until it is confirmed that there are absolutely no loopholes.
"If there is even the slightest doubt, the project will be postponed indefinitely.
"As for the controller of the Stellar-level magical equipment, even if it is Xiao Xuance of the Grand Illusionary Group, we will still conduct thorough investigation and monitoring.
"It's not that we don't trust Xiao Xuance, but this is a matter of great importance. Any Cultivator, including you, Xiao Sha, who becomes the controller of a piece of Stellar-level magical equipment will be monitored from every angle. All the relationships of their ancestors will be dug out!"
Li Yao took a breath in relief. "A technical demonstration in one year? Very good. Very necessary! If one year is not enough, two years will be enough. If two years are not enough, three years will be enough. I'd rather let the harassment of the Temple of Immortals continue for a few more years than launch such a huge project easily! "
"Of course. With the harassment of the space pirates and the Temple of Immortals right now, the world of Cultivators will be able to resist for three to five years."
Xue Yuanxin and Huangpu Bo said at the same time.
After grasping so much information, Li Yao could not sit still anymore.
He wanted to return to his residence immediately and reach out to Professor Mo Xuan and the other star spirits who were far away in the Cross Wind Space Zone.
Professor Mo Xuan and the other star spirits had once hidden inside Sparkle in the form of 'Phantom Entities'. Then, in a destructive cosmic storm, they had been reborn with the mustard-level liquid metal as the carrier with the mainframe crystal processor of Sparkle.
Therefore, they all boasted certain techniques that could increase their computational ability by controlling the crystal processor!
Li Yao intended to discuss the Grand Illusionary Soldier Project with them and see if he could find any loopholes, or if he was just being paranoid.
However, an unexpected message disrupted his plan.
Xiao Xuance is inviting me to a secret meeting?
Li Yao narrowed his eyes, not knowing what the CEO of the Grand Illusionary Group was up to.
Perhaps, he was trying to encourage him to support the Grand Illusionary Soldier Project in the secret meeting?
After all … The Glorious Sunlight Group behind him and the entire Iron Plateau could provide tremendous resources.
The fire of suspicion that had just died down in Li Yao's heart was jumping again.
He secretly made up his mind that if Xiao Xuance was too enthusiastic about the Grand Illusionary Soldier Project and was trying to get the Grand Illusionary Soldier Project to be implemented as soon as possible, something must be wrong!
Thinking about that … Li Yao accepted the invitation gladly and prepared to get in touch with Xiao Xuance.
Half an hour later …
Li Yao began to doubt his own suspicions again.
He was in a large conference room three hundred meters below the ground, where the Meeting of the Next Millennium was held.
Illuminated by the translucent crystal processors and the ever-changing light beams, the place looked more like a command center than anything else.
When Li Yao arrived, almost eighty Cultivators were already sitting in the command center.
Li Yao had seen the 3D photos of most of them in various Cultivator magazines.
Their thunderous names had appeared on the Spiritual Nexus countless times, too. They had been exclaimed in shock, admiration, and fear.
Five Yuanying Cultivators and more than sixty Core Formation Stage Cultivators. They were all battle-type Cultivators!
It was almost a collection of the best warriors of the Flying Star Sector!
With so many super experts gathered in the same place, although they had all suppressed their capability to less than 1%, their dominating aura was unstoppable. The spacious command center was as cramped as a tomb.
Shua! Shua! Shua!
Shua! Shua! The five Yuanying Cultivators and the sixty Core Formation Stage Cultivators looked at him. They glanced at him and moved away quickly.
Li Yao's eyelids were twitching violently. His back was soaked in cold sweat.
Several experts were from Flying Star University and had practiced with Li Yao before. The two parties were familiar with each other. They nodded at each other.
It seemed that the meeting had nothing to do with the Grand Illusionary Soldier Project.
If the Grand Illusionary Soldier Project was to be discussed, the research-type Cultivators and creation-type Cultivators should be in the meeting instead of this guy. A group of murderous martial artists.
Xiao Xuance in reality was even taller and more muscular than he was in the Grand Illusionary Land. The black clothes on his body made him look like the black silhouettes of mountains in the middle of the night, but he did not look intimidating at all.
He did not look like a high and mighty leader. Instead, he looked like a veteran who was full of passion and ideals and was willing to be the first to sacrifice himself for his beliefs.
Although Li Yao was still suspicious, he had to admit that Xiao Xuance was indeed a charming man when he met him face to face.
"Senior Xiao, I thought that you invited me here to support the Grand Illusionary Soldier Project," Li Yao said tentatively.
Leaving his Cultivation aside, Xiao Xuance was ten times older than him. It was not inappropriate for him to call him 'senior'.
Xiao Xuance smiled casually. "My young friend Sha, you represent the Glorious Sunlight Group and Iron Plateau. If the Grand Illusionary Soldier Project is to be launched, your support will be indispensable.
"However, I don't want any force to express their support before they figure out the situation.
"If you are truly willing to support the Grand Illusionary Soldier Project, I hope that the refiners of the Glorious Sunlight Group can provide you with wisdom to find the loopholes in the Grand Illusionary Soldier Project!"
"Oh?"
Li Yao blinked. "I didn't know that you were so prudent, Senior Xiao."
"Faced with such a stellar-level magical equipment system that can change the fate of the Flying Star Sector, we are not prudent enough however prudent we are!"
Xiao Xuance sighed and said solemnly, "Although the Grand Illusionary Soldier Project is foolproof according to our calculations, and the star brain cannot have been hacked by the enemy, the wisdom of the Grand Illusionary Soldier Project is still limited.
"However, the wisdom of everyone in the Grand Illusionary Group is still very limited. All the Cultivators of the Flying Star Sector have to work together!
"Furthermore …"
Xiao Xuance smiled bitterly. "The Immortal Cultivators are different from the traditional demonic Cultivators. It is almost impossible to tell them apart in daily life. I can't guarantee that the Grand Illusionary Group has not been infiltrated by the Immortal Cultivators, either.
"Therefore, even if the Grand Illusionary Soldier Project is to be launched, the close surveillance of all the Cultivators in the world of Cultivators will be required!
"By then, my young friend Sha is welcome to supervise the project with the strictest standards. Whoever you suspect is an Immortal Cultivator, even if you don't have any proof, you can bring it up. We will definitely investigate it!
"Regarding the issue, we would rather be wronged than let go of any evidence!"
Li Yao opened his mouth, but he did not know what to say. He could only nod his head, furrowing his eyebrows. "Alright."
Xiao Xuance said, "However, we can't talk about that right now. Even if you do decide to support the Grand Illusionary Soldier Project, it will be a year or two later at the earliest. During the two years, we can discuss, study, and make sure that the project is flawless without any loopholes.
"Today, I have invited Little Friend Sha and all the fellow Daoists whose battle prowess is above the Core Formation Stage to discuss an urgent matter."
"Now that all the fellow Cultivators are here, I will introduce to you the attack that the Temple of Immortals will carry out in the central area of Heavenly Saints City, the main venue of the Edge Sharpeners' Meeting, where we are.
"According to the Temple of Immortals, the attack of the highest scale that has been planned for more than half a year is the Mist Plan!"
