Divine Weapon
"Boom!"
Above the sky, figures from Gu Jinlai flew at full speed.
Relying on the unique properties of the Immortal Essence and its own pressure resistance, he directly increased his speed to six times the speed of sound.
Not one or two times!
It's six times the size of the Blackbird fighter jet!
The reason for this speed is mainly because the Chengying mech is too aerodynamic.
If the Cheng Ying mecha were to be remodeled, with the Eternal Furnace boasting excessive power at its peak, achieving ten times the speed of sound would be no problem.
Even so, he was still able to use the power of the Eternal Furnace to support the tens of tons of Cheng Ying mech to fly at six times the speed of sound, maintaining this speed that exceeded that of the Primordial Spirit sword control as it flew through the sky.
Then, with a descent, it swept across the land.
As he passed by, the compressed air from the mecha created an explosive force on the ground, sweeping up all the flowers and plants and turning them into fragments that drifted into the void.
"Call out!"
Gu Jinlai, swords have been drawn suddenly.
The battle sword, crafted from materials such as Flame Crystal and Great Sun Crystal, is over five meters long and was specifically designed to complement the sword's transverse properties.
As swords are drawn from Gu Jinlai, the eternal furnace operates, and violent energy is poured into the sword through its transfer properties, slashing down at extremely fast speed.
Suddenly, a dazzling, blazing white light swept across the earth, its intense radiance as if illuminating the ground with a sun.
Although this sun wasn't particularly dazzling, and didn't even compare to the spectacle of Gu Jinlai's attack on Dragon Roar City, but...
A blinding light flashed, but the armor of the Cheng Ying mech, crafted from immortal refined gold, managed to withstand the dissipated energy.
In other words, for the first time, he unleashed a strike containing nuclear fusion energy without using the "immortal" property, and he himself was not damaged.
"Good!"
Gu Jinlai, their eyes have gleamed with a sharp light.
"Indeed, the reason why my previous detonation of the energy contained in the sword caused indiscriminate attacks was because I needed to store energy in the sword. In other words, the stored energy was not flowing. However, if I guide the release of the energy before the transfer characteristic is completed, I will apply a force to the energy, thus giving the energy release directionality."
He figured out the underlying principle.
Although it is only directional, the changes it brings are revolutionary.
Once energy flows and is released in a direction, it will naturally lead to an imbalance in the energy impact experienced by different directions.
Since he controls the direction of the attack, the damage he receives will be greatly reduced, while the damage to the enemy will increase dramatically.
"Next, I will test the limits of the energy I can withstand."
Without Gu Jinlai, they continuously increased their energy and began to try each sword strike.
Each sword strike is equivalent to the release of nuclear fusion energy.
The dazzling light and violent energy fluctuations spread continuously in all directions, leveling the forest he had found.
Thankfully, he's not on Blue Star.
Otherwise, given his status as a commoner back then, let alone leveling a mountain of trees, he might have ended up in jail even if he accidentally cut down a single tree.
After all, he wasn't a nobleman.
However, on the other hand, if he had this ability on Blue Star, no one would dare to arrest him and put him in jail, regardless of whether he was a nobleman or not.
After unleashing more than a dozen sword strikes in succession, the Eternal Furnace seemed to be running out of steam.
The consumption is too high.
The energy consumption after pushing the performance of the Cheng Ying mech to its limit exceeded his expectations.
Although the Eternal Furnace's power is sufficient to power the Shadow Mech, the amount of raw materials it consumes is enough to make Gu Jinlai, gasp in astonishment.
That's how some of the additions were completed.
"We have to go back."
Gu Jinlai, the practice of wielding swords has ceased.
He had already calculated the energy impact that the Cheng Ying mech could withstand.
It must be said that it truly lives up to its reputation as immortal refined gold; its performance is indeed outstanding.
With the directional energy release of "transformation and transition," the power contained in each sword is no less than that of a small tactical nuclear bomb.
At that moment, his figure soared into the air once more, accompanied by the energy jets from his propulsion engine, flying straight towards Lingxiao City.
After flying for a moment, Gu Jinlai seemed to realize something, and suddenly his body rose up...
10,000 meters!
20,000 meters!
30,000 meters!
Rising!
Rising!
The earth receded further and further away from him, and the air above his head grew thinner and thinner with each ascent...
Air quality has also dropped significantly.
A chill emanated from the mech forged from immortal refined gold.
If it were an advanced fighter jet from Blue Star, its instruments would likely be affected by now. While the Cheng Ying mech is crude in many ways, its materials are...
Almost all of them are spiritual materials containing all sorts of mystical properties.
Furthermore, the mecha pilots Gu Jinlai have possessed physiques comparable to high-ranking Demonic Beasts, making them undisputed high-level warriors. A slight chill is nothing to them.
He maintained this angle and continued to climb upwards.
Upon reaching an altitude of 40,000 meters...
However, at this height, there was no trace of the horizon's curvature.
"This star is much larger than the Blue Star."
A sigh escaped his lips, reflecting on the Gu Jinlai.
He had anticipated this from the area occupied by Qian Tian.
Only...
Despite the enormous size of the planet, the gravity had not increased significantly; at least, he couldn't sense any difference between the gravity on this planet and that on Blue Star.
Furthermore, why are the creatures living on this planet not affected by gravity and instead grow into all sorts of strange shapes?
This is a phenomenon that science cannot explain.
Just as he couldn't explain the Celestial Master system using science.
Gu Jinlai, people have always wanted to continue climbing, but unfortunately...
The power engine of the Cheng Ying mech is no longer allowed.
Unit-01 underwent many simplifications, so much so that it lacked the capability to fly into space for combat.
After glancing into the distance once more, Gu Jinlai descended.
Military Industry Experimental Zone.
"Bang!"
Gu Jinlai, piloting the Cheng Ying mecha, landed steadily in the arena.
"Supreme Elder."
"So, is there anything else about the mecha that needs improvement?"
"How strong is the mech? Does it meet the standards?"
As soon as they landed, Zhang Lihuo, Si Tianyan, Guan Xingyun, Zhang Yukun and others quickly surrounded them to ask questions.
"Strength?"
Gu Jinlai shook hands. "Very good, especially because of the breakthrough in my main cultivation Cultivation Method... This mech's combat power is better than I expected."
He pondered for a moment and said, "I'm afraid even the simplified version of the Cheng Ying mech can't compare to it."
"Better than expected! Does that mean... I really have the ability to barely contend with a Saint?"
Zhang Yukun said excitedly.
"The Saint..."
Gu Jinlai said, "I have never seen a true saint take action, nor do I know what Divine Ability powers they possess, so I cannot give an accurate judgment. But... with this mech, even if I were to face a true saint... I would dare to give it a try."
"That's enough! That's enough!"
Zhang Lihuo said heavily, "The Chengying Mecha still has a lot of room for improvement, but these improvements will have to be made on the next mecha. I believe that once the next mecha is completed, it will definitely have the ability to allow you, the Supreme Elder, to fight the Saint head-on."
"I have no doubt about that."
A slight smile Gu Jinlai.
His confidence comes not only from the Cheng Ying mecha, but also from the Eternal Furnace at the Perfect level.
It has to be said that the Eternal Furnace with its excess power and the energy-consuming Shadow Mech are a perfect match.
"Once the real Cheng Ying mech is forged, it will probably be no less impressive than the great divine weapons."
Si Tianyan said with some longing.
"Divine weapon..."
Upon hearing Si Tianyan mention the name of the divine weapon, Zhang Lihuo, Zhang Yukun, and the others couldn't help but feel a stirring in their hearts.
Two hundred years ago, six divine weapons were born.
Heavenly Sword, Heart of the Stars, Light, Nothingness, World Sword.
As for the sixth divine weapon, its name has not been passed down.
Or rather, it is synonymous with "unknown" and "mysterious".
Of the six divine weapons, the Heavenly Sword is the most powerful.
Of the remaining divine weapons, Light was once the wielder of the previous Imperial Preceptor, Tai'a, and is now in the possession of Taiyuan.
The master of nothingness was named Shadowless, but later simply changed his name to Nothingness.
To this day, the whereabouts of this divine weapon remain unknown, following the fall of Wuying.
The remaining Star Heart and World Sword...
They were all in the Sanqing Hall, and after the disappearance of the Beginningless True Person, they were taken over by the Endless True Person and the Thoughtless True Person.
Each of these divine weapons possesses incredible abilities.
Their properties even surpass those of things like the Heavenly Dragon, Floating Island, and Space City, reaching a level comparable to the forbidden—the Void Beast.
If we had to categorize them, divine weapons would be comparable to true immortals who have attained the Dao of Longevity among cultivators, belonging to the category of immortal artifacts that surpass Dao artifacts.
When the Great Qian Dynasty was expanding its territory, the Imperial Tutor Tai'a had encountered experts of the same level, but in the face of the supreme power of the divine weapon, these experts were no match for him.
Unfortunately, divine weapons choose their masters; they can almost be considered as living beings.
Without their approval, even wielding divine weapons will not unleash much power.
Such as the True Person of No End and the True Person of No Thought.
"Although the Cheng Ying mech is powerful, it is still somewhat inferior to this divine weapon that represents the highest level of technology created by the Celestial Master civilization."
Gu Jinlai said truthfully, and then added, "However, the Cheng Ying mech also has an advantage that even divine weapons cannot match, which is repeatability. There is only one divine weapon. Even if its creator is brought back to life, it is not certain that another identical divine weapon can be made. But the Cheng Ying mech... as long as there are materials, let alone a second or third one, even ten or a hundred are not difficult. When we are rich, anyone can be equipped with this powerful war Spirit Artifact, just like the sharp swords and heavy cannons currently operated by the Celestial Master apprentices."
The words from Gu Jinlai stirred the emotions of Zhang Lihuo and the others.
They seemed eager to witness that scene.
"Alright, the Cheng Ying mech has been completed. I will provide you with detailed test data. Next, besides testing the Cheng Ying mech, there are two other issues we need to resolve. First, a large railgun, capable of damaging, and even killing, the Demonic Beasts King. Second..."
Gu Jinlai took out the "Void Mirage Pearl": "I need your assistance. Let's work together to forge a Qiankun Ring! A Qiankun Ring that can hold the Cheng Ying Mech and even eight Xuan Bird Fighters."
