The Crystal Ball brought by the Machine Race Clone had been a treasure shrouded in mystery ever since Liu Yun acquired it. The computing power contained within was so immense that even the true gods of the Machine Race could hardly match it. During that life-and-death crisis, when faced with the Golden Horned Beast's fatal blow, Liu Yun's original body had nearly been completely destroyed. Fortunately, at the very last moment, his consciousness deeply linked with the Crystal Ball, triggering a hidden ability.
This ability was called "Virtual Materialization." Given sufficient energy, it could use the Crystal Ball's astonishing 51,200 DB of computing power to directly simulate and construct objects in the void that were indistinguishable from those in the real world, including but not limited to warships, weapons, and even living beings. More astonishingly, under certain conditions, these virtual entities could interact with the real world, even achieving effects so convincing they could pass for the real thing.
During that battle, Liu Yun used this technology to create, under nearly impossible circumstances, a warship identical to his former Excalibur Brave.
When the Golden Horned Beast believed it had utterly defeated Liu Yun, that warship, woven from pure energy and algorithms, appeared on the battlefield like a ghost. Not only did it evade the fatal attack, it also launched a counterattack against the Golden Horned Beast with the warship's advanced weapons systems. Under the relentless barrage of high-energy attacks, even the mighty Golden Horned Beast was ultimately subdued, barely clinging to life as it was bound within the warship's energy beams.
This "virtual warship" was not only identical to the real one in appearance and performance; more importantly, it could carry Liu Yun's consciousness, building a bridge between virtuality and reality and allowing him, in a sense, to be "reborn."
