Wu Manufacturing Department did not interfere or ask about the matter. After waiting patiently for two days, he found Master Craftsman Jin again and asked, "How is the preparation?"
Master Craftsman Jin had not slept for two days and two nights, but the medicine he had taken beforehand still made him excited. He said, "Very successful, the things are ready."
Wu Manufacturing Department said in surprise, "Only two days, you really finished? We have never found a good way to use the god's eye before. How did you do it this time? "
Master Craftsman Jin said, "Manufacturing Department, in reality, we just used a trick. As to whether it will work, we do not know. We will see later."
Wu Manufacturing Department did not ask more and said seriously, "Then can we start now?"
Master Craftsman Jin said seriously, "At any time."
Wu Manufacturing Department immediately ordered his trusted aide behind him, "Go find Guard Wei, and say we are about to start."
Not long after, the trusted aide came back. Behind him was Guard Wei and two people, one male and one female. Looking at their clothing and accessories, these were two master craftsmen.
The Wu Manufacturing Department had never seen these two people before and couldn't help but take a few more looks. Guard Wei said, "Wu Manufacturing Department, these two master craftsmen came with me from the headquarters. They are responsible for recording the process of the execution of this plan."
Although Wu Zhi Yuan was a little reluctant in his heart, he could only put on a welcoming posture and politely nodded to the two people.
He motioned. Master Craftsman Jin immediately walked up and raised his hand in a bow. He said, "Guard Wei, and the other two, please come with me."
He made a gesture of invitation and walked forward first. Wu Institution and Guard Wei followed him.
The group walked along the tunnels of the workshop, and entered a sealed underground space through a lift shaft. Then they walked along a long tunnel.
After walking for about half an hour, a metal wall appeared in front of them. Wu Zhi Yuan took out a jade talisman and fiddled with it. The metal wall separated in all directions, and then a huge workshop with a dome appeared in front of them.
It looked like it was pieced together with irregular pieces of metal, emitting a bright and gentle light in all directions.
Over a hundred master craftsmen were gathered in front of a metal pedestal. Above the pedestal was a transparent glass cabin. Inside, there was a young man floating in a pool of liquid with his head lowered.
His long black hair fluttered in the water like silk ribbons, and his body was draped in a metal-like robe that fit his body perfectly.
Guard Wei glanced at him and said, "This is the person all of you want to release?"
Wu Zhi Yuan said, "Yes, but he is only a duplicate."
Although Bodyguard Wei wasn't an artisan, he could vaguely understand what he meant. This wasn't the real thing, but an imitation. He asked, "What's the difference here?"
Master Jin took over the conversation and explained, "Because the original body is very rare, and it wasn't easy for us to find it. We can't use it as a consumable, so we made a few copies.
Next, we plan to release the copies to test the results. If there are any flaws, we can make improvements on the other copies, and in the end, we can gradually reach perfection. "
Guard Wei didn't understand this. He asked the male artisan beside him, "Is this step necessary?"
The male artisan said, "This is the correct and rigorous method, and I agree with it. But at the same time, the consumption is many times greater."
Wu Manufacturing immediately realized that the status of these two master craftsmen seemed to be higher than he had thought. He immediately expressed his stance. "Yes, each replica requires a large amount of rare materials. If not for the support of the headquarters, we would not have been able to complete these."
The male artisan smiled, took out a jade tablet, and wrote something quickly and smoothly on it with a brush. It looked like he had recorded the two's words.
After a while, he looked up and said, "Wu Zhi Yuan, the report you submitted earlier wasn't clear. Which copy technique did you use?"
Wu Zhi Yuan immediately said, "A part of it is our own technique, and a part is obtained from outside."
The male artisan nodded and said, "Where is the original body? Can I take a look? "
Wu Zhi Yuan hesitated and said, "In order to ensure safety, that place is sealed with a special method. Even for me, it is very inconvenient to go in. It will take half a day to open the seal. I think it is better to do it another day. Let's wake up the copies today. If it goes well, we will be able to see the original body … …"
The male artisan didn't insist and continued to write something on the jade tablet.
Wu Zhi Yuan felt that it was not suitable for him to continue speaking here. He used the excuse that he needed to watch over the awakening of the copies. He ordered his trusted subordinates to take care of the two and then left with Master Jin.
Under the gaze of many master craftsmen, he came to the glass cabin. He looked at the time dial and said with a serious expression, "It will be time in half an hour. Prepare to awaken the copies."
Master Craftsman Jin nodded, and the other Master Craftsmen dispersed in an orderly manner, returning to their positions one after another.
Guard Wei looked at the figure in the glass cabin. He turned his head and asked the male artisan, "Master Dou, actually, I don't know what this thing is. Do you know?"
The male artisan pondered for a moment and then smiled. "There is nothing that can't be said. Hmm, this matter is a bit complicated, so I'll just say it briefly. A few decades ago, in order to deal with more wars, the Ministry of Natural Works had a debate about the path of creation.
In the end, the opinions were divided into two factions. One faction thought that we should continue to develop the technique of divine robes. This way, even ordinary people would be able to surpass the mortal world and even have the ability to fight against enemies. Most of the divine robes and mystic armors were developed by this faction. For example, the mystic armor you are wearing is a manifestation of this faction's superb technique.
"As for the other faction … this faction believes that we should do what we did to the development of the mystic cultivators. We should try to create creator-level cultivators to supplement our combat strength, or even replace the mystic cultivators, or even …"
Speaking of this, he paused for a moment before continuing. "Due to certain reasons, the latter faction was suppressed and the former faction became the mainstream. However, the latter faction didn't completely disappear. Some master craftsmen are still trying to explore this possibility.
However, it is very difficult to create creator-level cultivators. It is meaningless to simply create a creator-level cultivator and then learn dao laws. Rather than this, it is better to let the people of Tianxia give birth to more people. Unless it can be like outer armor, as long as it is worn, it will have a certain amount of combat power.
Fortunately, at this time, a master craftsman who once cultivated the Xuan method proposed an idea … … "
Guard Wei was entranced and couldn't help but ask, "What idea?"
The master craftsman said, "The Xuan method relies on divine essence. As long as there is enough divine essence, a cultivator's cultivation and realm can rapidly increase. In theory, an ordinary person can become a powerful cultivator in a very short period of time. In this world, there is a kind of person who is born with abundant divine essence!"
"And if we can find such a person and use them to create replicas, and then use the secret techniques that the Observer instilled in cultivators, then as long as the Creator cultivator is able to create something, they will be able to possess powerful combat strength!"
"However, it is very difficult to find someone born with abundant divine essence. Even if there is such a person, they are usually well protected by the Xuanfu. Thus, the plan is stuck at this step.
However, the people of this faction didn't give up. Not only did they search in the Qingyang Continent, they also sent people to other continents to search. Several decades ago, they even sent creator-level cultivators to various protectorates and places where the Xuanfu's power is weak.
Of course, this alone isn't enough. There are countless difficulties that need to be overcome.
In the past few decades, the people of this faction developed their skills while searching for such people.
However, after several decades, they still didn't find anything, until … "
He looked at the figure in the glass cabin and said, "Until a year ago, we finally found him in the Dongting Protectorate."
When Guard Wei heard this, his heart couldn't help but tremble. If the master craftsman was right, then this plan had been going on for at least sixty years.
However, even though he was only a guard, he wasn't stupid and had a certain understanding of cultivators. He immediately thought of something that wasn't right.
He questioned, "But even if you can create such a creator-level cultivator, it might not be able to compare to the best armor we have now. The conditions are also so harsh. Will it really be useful?"
There were still some things he didn't say. Back then, this faction was suppressed, so there were clearly people above who didn't allow them to do this. How did they get around this?
The master craftsman smiled and said, "Guard Wei is correct. Thus, this step isn't the entire plan. There is a second step, which is the true key."
As for what the key was, he didn't say.
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Guard Wei naturally didn't ask anymore. The previous things were already being done or had already been done, so it was fine for him to know. However, the plans that hadn't been started yet weren't things that he should know.
While the two were talking, Wu Institution brought Master Craftsman Jin over. He said to Guard Wei and the master craftsman, "Because it's hard to say how much power this body can use, we need to see what the upper limit of his power is. At the same time, we need to gather more information. Thus, we need to choose a place to place him."
Master Craftsman Jin said, "We were prepared to place him in the outer realm Dao sects for testing, but now that those people have been taken back to Xuanfu by Zhang Xuanzheng, it's not suitable anymore."
Wu Institution said, "In fact, most places in the continent aren't suitable. It would cause too much of a commotion."
Guard Wei said, "Then what are you planning to do?"
Wu Zhi Yuan said, "Actually, we have already chosen. There is a place that is most suitable, and also the easiest to test the strength of the body." He paused, looked at Guard Wei and the others, and slowly said, "Spirit Mystery Realm!"
