Chu Fei stood behind the porthole, gazing at the dazzling expanse of space outside with a smile on his face—a smile of confidence, success, and hope.
This sudden success had caught even Chu Fei somewhat off guard. Research often worked this way: a burst of inspiration could lead to astonishing leaps, producing in days what might otherwise take decades. But breakthroughs this immense were truly rare—this technology had directly crossed dimensions.
Still, he had succeeded, and it was an unprecedented success. The breakthrough in Hyper-Dimensional Folding technology had allowed Chu Fei to step one foot into the 16.0 realm!
It could now basically be said that the door to 16.0 had been pushed open for Chu Fei. As long as he cultivated steadily, he would be able to enter the 16.0 realm.
For now, though, he still needed to consolidate his 14.0 and 15.0 realms and continue refining his cultivation methods until they were flawless.
When I cross a river, I won't walk across a single-plank bridge or a pontoon bridge. I'll build a stone arch bridge—or even an iron bridge—and drive a tank across.
After relaxing briefly, Chu Fei immediately threw himself into the next stage of research. He had only discovered a "phenomenon" so far. Fully analyzing it through science and technology would require much more work.
The "phenomenon" could already be used in a preliminary way, but it was far from ideal. To truly master it, he needed further scientific research, then had to reproduce it through scientific means.
But once the phenomenon had been found, the research became far easier. With sufficient theory already in place, Chu Fei spent only one day perfecting most of the technology.
First, the pure metal had to be heated into a molten state in an airless environment.
Second, high temperatures
