Jiang Shang passed on a spell to Xu Liao and taught him how to refine the Map of the Four Seas to appease Kirin's Soul Essence. Then, he retreated and went back into the depths of the Concealing Sky Formation.
Xu Liao had now cultivated the ninth chapter of the Computational Sutra of Nine Elements. With a little calculation, he knew what his master was planning.
Xu Liao's Concealing Sky Formation was an external object, so it would be rejected by the Map of the Four Seas. The consciousness that he could come into contact with was not the consciousness of Kirin's Soul Essence, but the consciousness that had been filtered by dozens of layers of formations and refined by the Map of the Four Seas.
So, Xu Liao could deceive the Map of the Four Seas in the beginning, but as he invaded the Map of the Four Seas, it would inevitably cause the outermost formation to collapse. Naturally, it would cause the consciousness of Kirin's Soul Essence to increase by several times.
What Jiang Shang taught him was the orthodox way of refining a formation. As long as Xu Liao followed his instructions, he would be able to merge with the original outermost formation of the Map of the Four Seas. It would be equivalent to becoming a part of the Map of the Four Seas, and it would no longer anger the spiritual consciousness of the treasure.
But if he followed Jiang Shang's instructions, Xu Liao would be trapped in it. Unless he cultivated to the Sky Demon Realm in the future, it would be impossible for him to completely refine the Map of the Four Seas without hundreds of thousands of years. After hundreds of thousands of years, even if Xu Liao was already a demon, his grave would probably be leveled.
Xu Liao had another way, which was to endure until the end of the three thousand years and take away the Concealing Sky Formation. As for the Map of the Four Seas, he did not need to worry about it. Naturally, the demon gods waiting outside would worry about it.
This method was more in line with Xu Liao's intentions. He was not a greedy person who had to take the Map of the Four Seas. If he could take away hundreds of millions of miles of rivers and mountains and refine them in Emperor Dong's Palace, it would be much more carefree than here with the Four Seas Map.
Jiang Shang's guidance actually had a benefit. As long as he cultivated step by step, with his cultivation level of the Great Heavenly Yuan Technique and Computational Canon of Nine Primordial Essences, as well as the Four Seas Map as a ceremonial shield, he could slowly polish his realm and cultivate his merits. After hundreds of thousands of years, he would be able to steadily advance to Skydemon. There were almost no obstacles, except that it would take a long time.
Xu Liao did not think for long before choosing the best method for himself. He temporarily stopped refining the Four Seas Map and first fused with the outermost formation of the Four Seas Map. However, he was prepared to leave at any time.
With Jiang Shang's guidance, the recovery of the Four Seas Map's consciousness slowed down. Xu Liao had more time to cultivate.
He broke through the ninth chapter of the Computational Canon of Nine Primordial Essences, and his momentum was fierce. In just a few dozen days, he broke through all the barriers and refined twelve Taoist meridians in one go. Including his original foundation, he had refined thirty-seven Taoist meridians and advanced to the Demon Commander level.
At this time, Xu Liao already knew that it was impossible for him to refine seventy-two Taoist meridians in hundreds of years and reach the Great Perfection of the Demon Commander level. Naturally, he had no chance of breaking through to the Demon God level. He could not help but sigh.
He knew that although there were still hundreds of years left in the Four Seas Map, it was no longer important. Other than stabilizing his cultivation, he had no other opportunities. According to Yang Shuhua, if he wanted to avoid this disaster, he had to break through to the next realm. At the very least, he would be a Demon Commander. It would be best if he could break through to the Demon God level, or even the Sky Demon level.
Now that he had no hope of even becoming a Demon God, he naturally could not be considered a Sky Demon.
Moreover, not only did Xu Liao not break through to the Demon God level, he could not even refine the Four Seas Map. Although he could devour the void of the four seas, there was a limit to the increase in power. Even if he fused with his original body, he could at most refine a Primordial Golden Plate, but its power would definitely be far inferior to the one refined by Patriarch Yu Ding. He might not even have full confidence in fighting against a Demon God, much less someone like Tiger Leopard Yi, who had 108 Great Demon Commanders under his command, the new Heavenly Court, and the hourglass of time and space!
Since Xu Liao was unwilling to listen to Jiang Shang's guidance, he naturally had to find another way to survive. If it was in the past, he would not have any other way, but since he had cultivated the ninth chapter of the Computational Canon of Nine Elements, he had successfully refined the double-edged spear into a golden ring, allowing him to find a path out of the impossible.
After the Four Seas Map gradually disappeared, Xu Liao took back the three divine weapons in his hand. Using the Sky Concealing Array as a furnace, he refined them into the golden ring one by one, and constantly refined the artificial spiritual sense array, mobilizing all his troops to work together to refine this treasure.
The four first-grade divine weapons were all demonic god level existences. If it wasn't for the fact that they were suppressed by the Four Seas Map and didn't have their original spirits, they definitely wouldn't be treasures that could only be used by the Heaven Shaking Marquis. At the very least, they would be like the Azure Dragon Axe and the Vermillion Bird Axe, refined by an even more tyrannical existence. Only by changing hands could they be firmly suppressed.
But within the Four Seas Map, Xu Liao could use the Sky Concealing Array to personally refine this protective treasure.
Xu Liao had obtained countless treasures, but to him, those treasures were only external objects. Only this one, it was very likely that it could become his treasure to pass the tribulation, so Xu Liao was particularly attentive.
Although these four divine weapons were of the Demon God level, they themselves had only cultivated a few to a dozen true meridians, and they were all the weakest existences of the Demon God level. Even if one of them released all the future, it could not be a match for a top Great Demon God.
Xu Liao had already refined these four divine weapons into the Sky Concealing Array a long time ago, so refining them as one was far easier than refining them from the beginning. In just over a hundred years, the Dragon Slaying Saber was the first to be refined, and it was fused into the golden bangle. After another few decades, the other two divine weapons also fused into one with the golden bangle.
The golden bangle had been refined for more than three hundred years. Only then did it ring and completely take shape. It contained thirty-one true meridians and countless artificial spiritual sense arrays. The layers were dense and endless, allowing the treasure to "come to life" in another form.
According to the knowledge of human technology, this golden bangle was equivalent to the highest level of artificial intelligence!
However, in terms of computing power, this golden bangle's computing power was billions of times greater than the total computing power of all the computers on Earth. It was more intelligent and intelligent than any other living being, and it contained countless knowledge. It could even rely on its own deduction to analyze a science, such as physics, mathematics, chemistry, biology, and so on on Earth within a few years.
In just a few years, it could match or even surpass the technological progress of the human race for hundreds of years.
However, Xu Liao's train of thought was different from that of the mainstream scientists on Earth. He had never thought of refining a thing that had independent intelligence, could think on its own, was as pretentious as human beings, and had the thinking flaws of all living beings.
He didn't want to create a new life; he only wanted an auxiliary tool. Therefore, this golden bangle's artificial spiritual sense array could only give birth to an auxiliary consciousness, and it could only think under the control of Xu Liao's consciousness. Once Xu Liao's consciousness left it, it would become a "dead" object again. Although its computing power would still be unparalleled in the world, it would no longer have any independent thinking ability, and it could only accept instructions.
