Nuclear-powered Sword Immortal
Chapter 862 - 712: Probe _2

Chapter 862: Chapter 712: Probe _2

Some ultra-large machinery even requires a dozen or even dozens of mechanics to work together in collaboration.

A select few exceptional individuals will be chosen to join large warships, become part of the army, and be responsible for certain machinery components.

Mechanics of Level 4 to Level 6 can activate high-power but less stable reactors.

They stay within the warship, potentially becoming low-ranking officers, and excellence might lead them to pilot individual mecha for solo combat.

Their military rank is roughly equivalent to a junior officer.

As for Level 7 to Level 9 mechanics...

They are already the backbone of the combat sequence.

The Hunter Squad of the Second Sequence and the Heavenly Punishment Team of the First Sequence predominantly consist of mixed levels of these mechanics.

Further up...

Lie the domains of the Great Dao Golden Immortals.

Every Great Dao Golden Immortal is equivalent to an army, comprising a warship and dozens, hundreds, or even several thousand mechanics.

The Immortal Xuanhuang Realm has a saying, a solitary Great Dao Golden Immortal isn’t frightening, what’s frightening is a Great Dao Golden Immortal leading a fleet.

In the Resistance Army, there have been instances more than once where high-ranking Great Dao Golden Immortals were surrounded and killed by other Great Dao Golden Immortals leveraging fleet superiority.

Sixty years ago, there was even a case where a Second-Rank Golden Immortal led a fleet of tens of thousands of mechanics to annihilate a resistance force boasting a Fifth-Rank Golden Immortal.

And that force even included several Third and Fourth Rank Great Dao Golden Immortals.

"This Golden Immortal Realm is truly chaotic."

Gu Jinlai couldn’t help but mock when he saw this.

Yet, recalling how the Xuanyuan Sword Ancestor of the Xuanyuan Sword Sect, after achieving Great Dao Golden Immortal, could soon face many solo...

This realm indeed has significant variance among different Golden Immortals.

After a short while, Gu Jinlai turned his gaze back to the Reformers.

This is the last profession.

Simulating a nuclear reactor within the body, transforming oneself into an existence similar to mecha or warships.

The advantage is stronger solo combat capability, the drawback...

Due to relying solely on one’s own body, unlike mechanics who can remotely control mecha, the fatality rate is higher.

"The style of the Xuanhuang Realm...has been completely deviated..."

Gu Jinlai shook his head, at a loss for words to describe the situation.

However, the paths of the Sacred Body, Immortal Body, Dao Fruit, and Heavenly Dao in this world have been completely locked by the Devouring Dao. It seems that aside from a few individuals nurtured as Seeds by the Xuanhuang Immortal Dynasty, for everyone else, walking the path of cultivation is akin to working for the Immortal Cave Heaven that envelops the entire Xuanhuang Realm, leaving them no choice but to opt for the paths of mechanics or Reformers to slightly evade the Devouring Dao.

Gu Jinlai observed this for a moment, then took the Star Map of the Refining God Technique given by Bi Yuan.

He had cultivated the Mysterious Gate, and his Spiritual Realm had reached the Human Dao Peak, which is the Third Rank level, only lacking the sophisticated methods of these new Refining God Techniques.

Taking a brief moment to comprehend the Star Map slightly, this Refining God Technique was already at entry-level.

As he once again invested in Qingguang...

Before long, he had effortlessly achieved Cultivation Perfection with the Star Map.

"With improved realms, I’ve indeed saved a lot of Qingguang while cultivating other techniques."

Gu Jinlai looked at his remaining count of two thousand Qingguang, estimating that his Spirit Level could be raised by one or two more ranks.

After noting the Qingguang Balance, he turned his attention to the newly perfected Star Map.

The perfected Star Map had derived two traits.

One was an offensive Divine Sense Secret Technique, Starlight Rotation.

The other was the Star Technique that allowed the Divine Sense Ability to be multitasked.

This multitasking differs from True Spirit Manifestation; according to one’s Spiritual Realm, it can allow one to precisely control the Divine Sense to reach a division of three thousand, then ten thousand, thirty thousand, to a hundred thousand levels.

Theoretically, as long as the Divine Sense is strong enough, one person could form an army.

However, each unit of these three thousand only corresponds to the Divine Sense Ability of a Level 1 Mechanic.

"Cultivating the Star Map, aside from adapting to this world, the most crucial point is cleansing the marks of the old method era from oneself..."

Gu Jinlai had clarity in his heart: "Next, while searching for higher-level Spirit Refinement methods, I need to understand the truth behind the battle between the Xuanhuang Alliance and that Evil God ten thousand years ago."

With this thought in mind, Gu Jinlai walked out of the villa, starting to deliberately interact with others.

...

What Gu Jinlai did not know was that as he began engaging in outdoor activities, gaining deeper insights into this world from others in the neighborhood, several figures quickly descended upon the underground base.

Seeing a young-looking man leading them, Bi Yuan was somewhat surprised: "Xuan He President, why have you come?"

The person before him was one of the four Vice Presidents of the Immortal Shadow Association.

One president and four vice presidents constituted the entire number of Golden Immortals in the Immortal Shadow Association.

"Why have I come? If I didn’t come, this base and its hundreds of official members would soon be uprooted by the Tianshu Guardian Army."

The man named Xuan He sternly threw a piece of information onto the table in front of Bi Yuan.

On it was detailed information about Gu Jinlai.

Besides some analysis targeting Gu Jinlai’s various actions over more than a month, there was even a section originating from the Xuanyuan Sword Sect of the Profound Immortal Realm.

Bi Yuan took a glance and said, "The words of this Heavenly Immortal Mo Yu from the Xuanyuan Sword Sect cannot represent much. The Profound Immortal Realm has been closed to the outside world for over a century, and she left the Xuanyuan Sword Sect more than two hundred years ago. It is only natural that Mo Yu does not know of such a person as Gu Jinlai within the Xuanyuan Sword Sect."

"Naturally?"

Xuan He wore a displeased expression: "Not to mention the absurdity of achieving Nine Heavens Profound Immortal within less than a century and even reaching the Golden Immortal Realm of the Spiritual Realm. You should’ve thoroughly investigated the methods he used against the Hunter Squad, right? Those are clearly methods used by the new era mechanics and Reformers!"
