Under equal conditions, Wang Qi was still inferior to the vast majority of Free and Unfettered Cultivators.
But those conditions were limited to situations of "equality."
One had to know that the God Method took reason and spiritual intelligence as its foundation. The higher one's theoretical level, the stronger one's actual combat ability—perfectly matching humanity's innate spiritual intelligence and academic system.
And Wang Qi's theoretical level was no worse than that of an ordinary Free and Unfettered Cultivator.
His disadvantage lay in his short cultivation time. He had not climbed to immortality by the proper path, nor did he possess a cultivation body powerful enough to stand on the same stage as immortals.
But whenever Wang Qi fought, he relied on the immense mana and enormous surplus computational power brought by Beast Mechanisms.
The Six Paths of Reincarnation Dharma Realm and the God Plague Curse served as important supplements.
The design philosophy behind Wang Qi's own Foundation Base and Core Formation had been to maximize the role of magical items, using them to shore up his own deficiencies.
A gentleman's nature was not different from others'; he was simply skilled at borrowing the strength of things.
In truth, before Lord Calculator developed the systems of chaotic algorithms and topological networks, Beast Mechanisms could not bear the computational burden required to command their own swarms. They still needed external calculating devices before they could be put to use.
It could be said that Lord Calculator had granted this type of magical item new life.
This thing had not existed for very long. It had emerged just shortly before Wang Qi entered the Dao. Thus, in a sense, Wang Qi and the other Free and Unfettered Cultivators stood on the same starting line in the field of "using Beast Mechanisms."
