The Three Ma Liangs Went on a Rampage!

Right now, everyone's talking at once!

But if we're talking about quick wit, then three Ma Liangs combined would be the fastest!

In an instant, all three Ma Liangs' eyes gleamed with golden light!

Ma Liang was the first to speak, "Do you think Senior Brother Xinghe's purpose might be related to demonic beasts, weapon crafting, the bloodline power of the Strength Barbarian Evil Spirits, and elixirs?"

Ma Liang No. 2: "Right, right, let's go through this from the beginning... Junior Brother Ouyang, what's the biggest predicament you're facing right now?"

Ouyang Ming: "Don't you know what you should do?"

Ma Liang No. 2: "Bullshit! You, a weapon refiner, don't know what you're supposed to do? It's obviously weapon refining... I mean, what's the biggest difficulty you've encountered in weapon refining?"

Upon hearing this, Ouyang Ming instantly returned to his comfort zone.

Ouyang Ming stated that he currently faces two major difficulties. The first is whether the Dark Gold Plate of Light of Xinghe can continue to break through...

It seems unlikely that significant progress can be made in the short term!

The second one is naturally the mechanical body... Ever since the mechanical body was invented, Ouyang Ming has not been idle. He has been constantly researching how to improve the mechanical body!

To be honest, given Ouyang Ming's abilities, creating a mechanical body capable of defeating an ordinary Martial God wouldn't be a big problem!

The logic is simple... as long as the fused divine weapon is powerful enough, the combat power that the mechanical body can unleash in an instant is terrifying!

Ouyang Ming knew this was possible without even needing to test it!

However, "may" does not mean "feasible"!

The biggest drawback of mechanical bodies is not their ability to unleash tremendous power, but their limited battery life!

What sustains cultivators in battle?

Body Cultivation relies on the internal Heaven and Earth Furnace!

Normal cultivators rely on their Spirit Sea!

The higher a cultivator's rank, the more power they can contain, whether it's the Heaven and Earth Furnace or the Spirit Sea!

Only in this way can cultivators sustain themselves in battle for a longer period of time!

However, after careful research, Ouyang Ming discovered that although the total amount of power contained in the Spirit Sea or the Heaven and Earth Furnace is related to the duration of combat, it is not an absolute relationship!

During his research, Ouyang Ming discovered that cultivators below the Fifth Rank have very short combat endurance. They often need to rest for a while after each battle or rely on pills to continue fighting!

However, from the Subordinate Fifth Rank onwards, the combat endurance of cultivators of all categories can be greatly increased!

A Sixth Rank cultivator can fight continuously for days and nights and still maintain vigorous combat power!

The reason for this situation is not because the Spirit Sea can contain much more power than Fifth Rank, but because after a cultivator enters the Sixth Rank, their perception of the world leads to a qualitative leap in their recovery ability!

For example, if a cultivator has 100 points of Spirit Power, and each attack consumes 5 points, wouldn't their Spirit Power be depleted after 20 attacks?

Even after a Fifth Rank Martial Warrior has made twenty moves, there will still be Spirit Power left. That remaining Spirit Power is actually the Spirit Power that is restored during the process of making moves!

He can take about thirty or forty shots!

However, once you reach the Sixth Rank, although each attack consumes ten points, your recovery speed also increases dramatically. Thus, a Sixth Rank might even be able to attack a hundred or two hundred times!

Everyone present nodded in agreement with Ouyang Ming's statement, indicating that he was absolutely right!

Ouyang Ming continued, "But the mechanical body is a real problem... I tried to create a huge power storage space for the mechanical body, but no matter how large this storage space is, the mechanical body itself has no ability to recover! In other words, once the power in the storage space is exhausted, the mechanical body instantly loses all its combat power!"

Ouyang Ming said, "Actually, I wasn't idle while you guys were researching this issue these past few days. I specifically asked Senior Brother Xinghe about it!"

Ouyang Ming said to Senior Brother Xinghe, "I feel like I've gone astray..."

Because modern mechanical bodies are practically like giant money-devouring beasts!

It required a constant infusion of Tenth Rank spirit stones to operate, but even with a large amount of Tenth Rank spirit stones invested each time, the mechanical body still couldn't operate for very long. So Ouyang Ming initially wanted to give up on this idea!

There's no way around it... the consumption is just too great, so great that even Ouyang Ming feels it's an absolute waste!

But just as Ouyang Ming was about to give up on the idea, he found that Senior Brother Xinghe's eyes lit up after hearing it!

Senior Brother Xinghe immediately retorted, "Ouyang Ming, what the hell are you saying?"

Who said you're going in the wrong direction?

Your direction is absolutely right!

So what if it consumes a lot of energy?

If we give up research simply because it's too costly, what's the difference between us and a salted fish?

So, Junior Brother Ouyang, push forward with this idea at full speed!

I've arranged for my junior brothers from the Civil Engineering Department to send you all the Tenth Rank spirit stones. You just need to be in charge of... cough cough... you just need to be in charge of the research... Your approach is completely correct!

Ouyang Ming said that although he did not understand what Senior Brother Xinghe meant, after his research, he had no idea what to do except for the increasing energy consumption!

Therefore, Ouyang Ming stated that this is the biggest dilemma he has encountered recently!

Since the mechanical body's endurance cannot be increased, and there's no way to drastically improve its endurance, its combat capabilities naturally cannot be expanded!

Seeing Ouyang Ming looking dejected, Ma Liang was so angry he almost wet himself!

Ma Liang said to Ouyang Ming, "Ouyang Ming, I have to call you a bastard on behalf of Senior Brother Xinghe!"

Why didn't you tell me about such an important clue beforehand?

We've been studying this for ages, and it turns out Senior Brother Xinghe already gave you the answers. You have the answers and you still don't know how to fill in the blanks, right?

What's the difference between you and a piece of trash?

Ouyang Ming was completely baffled by Senior Brother Ma Liang's insults!

Is the answer here?

Just as Ouyang Ming was completely bewildered, Ma Liang spoke up, "Junior Brother Ouyang, although I don't understand weapon crafting, I do know that no matter how large the charging space you create, essentially, as long as the mechanical body consumes power quickly, the power will also be consumed quickly. After all, a mechanical body is inanimate and cannot recover power as quickly as we normal cultivators, right?"

"That's right, that's the problem we can't change right now!" Ouyang Ming nodded.

"What if we could turn a mechanical body into a living thing?"

The audience. "???"

Ouyang Ming: "??????"

At this moment, Ouyang Ming looked at his Senior Brother Ma Liang with a face full of question marks. Ouyang Ming was thinking, "Senior Brother Ma Liang, do you want to hear what you have to say?"

The mechanical body was created by Lingbao, so how did Lingbao come to life?

"Junior Brother Ouyang... let me ask you... how confident are you in crafting some magical treasures with spirits?"

"Three or four points is still possible!" As soon as Ouyang Ming said this, even Ma Liang couldn't help but think that Junior Brother Ouyang was too abnormal!

As we all know, among all magical treasures, those that possess a spirit are extremely rare!

No matter how high the grade of a spirit treasure is, it is an inanimate object without a soul. However, once a spirit treasure has its own spirit, and you can make the spirit spirit communicate with you, you will know how terrifying combat power your spirit treasure can unleash in battle!

Therefore, a magical treasure with a spirit and one without a spirit are completely different concepts!

You hear that Ouyang Ming's success rate in forging magical treasures with spirits is only 30% to 40%, which doesn't seem very high!

But only those who understand weapon crafting know how unbelievable this is!

Even if Ouyang Ming were to say now that he has a 30% or 40% chance of success, people would still think he's bragging!

Because even if you go to the Four Continents and find the top weapon refiner, he may never have created a single weapon with a weapon spirit, even if he has spent his whole life forging magical treasures!

Ouyang Ming has at least a 30% chance of creating a magical treasure with a spirit, so you can imagine what an insane ability that is!

Ma Liang knew that Ouyang Ming wouldn't joke about something like this. If he said he had a 30-40% chance, then he definitely had a 30-40% success rate!

"What if you first create a mechanical body with a spirit, and then integrate that mechanical body into the body of a demon beast?"

Ma Liang's words left the entire audience utterly bewildered!

Is this even human language? Integrating a mechanical body with a spirit into a demon beast's body? What kind of outrageous nonsense is this?

How is that even possible?

Ma Liang No. 2 noticed everyone's confusion and quickly explained, "I know this kind of thing was impossible in the past, but now there's an opportunity!"

Upon hearing Ma Liang's explanation, Ouyang Ming's eyes lit up, but he then shook his head and said, "Senior Brother Ma Liang, your explanation won't work!"

"I know, Senior Brother Ma Liang, you mean to use Man Sheng's bloodline power and Power of Totems, then place the mechanical body I created into the monster's body. Combined with Mu Bai's spirit-gathering pills, the mechanical body, which originally possessed a spirit, would replace the monster's soul, allowing the monster and the mechanical body to merge and become a living mechanical body! But even if a mechanical body has a spirit, it's still an inanimate object. An inanimate object can never become a living thing!"

As soon as Ouyang Ming said this, almost everyone nodded in agreement, indicating that Ouyang Ming was right!

Because throughout history, there have indeed been some evil cultivators who have done this kind of thing, using the souls or flesh and blood of others to nourish spiritual treasures!

This can indeed make the magical treasure more powerful, but no matter how powerful the magical treasure becomes, it cannot transform an inanimate object into a living one!

Just when everyone thought that Senior Brother Ma Liang's idea was too outrageous, they saw two other Ma Liangs behind Ma Liang, one on the left and one on the right, each conjuring a white ball and a black ball in their hands!

That is the Power of Vitality and the Power of Death!

At this moment, when they saw the Power of Vitality and the Power of Death, everyone's eyes lit up!

If we add the power of the three Senior Brother Ma Liang, we might be able to turn the tide!
