Ji Lingtian is gone.
When I walked, my legs felt like they were floating, and I felt like I was floating too.
"What happened to my father?" Ji Luo Xue asked curiously.
My Old Man, who had looked worried and even fearful just moments before, suddenly started smiling.
The previous negative emotions were completely swept away.
"Nothing much, just gave your dad a trump card that allows him to escape at will."
"A trump card to save your life?" Ji Luo Xue knew from Ling Yi's smug look that he was going to keep her in suspense again.
She always gets manipulated and bullied by Ling Yi, who takes advantage of her in every way.
I, Ji Luo Xue, the Holy Maiden of the Mystic Moon Sect, do I not have any dignity?
Over time, Ji Luo Xue also learned some tricks to control Ling Yi.
Take now, for example.
Seeing that Ling Yi didn't want to speak directly, Ji Luo Xue yawned. "I was too tired last night and I'm very sleepy. I'm going to sleep for a while longer."
After saying that, he turned around and went back to the bedroom, which was the temporary bridal chamber that had been prepared for Ling Yi and the others.
It has now been transformed into a modern bedroom by Ling Yi.
Ling Yi blinked. "Wife, don't you want to know what kind of territory I gave your father?"
That's our dad.
"Yes, our dad!"
"Just finished eating, feeling sleepy!"
As soon as the words were spoken, the door slammed shut.
Ling Yi suddenly felt a bit suffocated.
It's that feeling of wanting to chat with someone about Eight Trigrams, but everyone's busy.
But then, Ling Yi chuckled.
"Little girl, you've gone astray!"
With a wave of his hand, he cast Dust Removal Spell, and the bowls and chopsticks on the table instantly became clean and tidy.
The Snap again.
The bowls and chopsticks flew back to the kitchen in a line.
"Cultivating immortality is really great."
Turning around, Ling Yi walked into another room.
The door had three words written on it: Research Room.
During this time, Ling Yi has been tinkering with a cultivation-themed mobile phone.
It's not difficult to make a phone that looks similar but isn't.
The challenge lies in perfectly replicating the application functions of the phone from the previous life.
Taking photos, videos, and transmitting sound are not difficult.
However, the application functions such as web pages, forums, live streaming, games, and payments are quite cumbersome.
Many things cannot be solved by weapon crafting techniques.
But the basic functions must be implemented first.
The rest we'll study later.
There's always a way.
Ling Yi can lie flat, but he can't lie there and die.
Lying flat is a state of mind, not a physical action.
It's about doing what you love, saying what you want to say, and playing the games you want to play.
It's not a dilapidated house, a broken bed, tattered clothes, or a tattered quilt; it's completely moldy and rotten.
Even if you can't make any contributions or achieve any results, you shouldn't hold others back or be a burden.
Once Ling Yi got busy, he got really into it.
New ideas kept popping up in my head.
Moreover, Ling Yi wasn't alone; he also had Shadow helping him.
The Shadow gradually evolved into an encyclopedia.
If Ling Yi has any questions or wants to know something, he can usually get the answer by asking Shadow.
For example, are there banks in the Immortal Cultivation Realm?
"Yes!" the Shadow replied affirmatively.
"Not only do they have banks, but they also have bank cards!"
"However, they don't call it a bank, they call it the Spirit Transport Trading Company, and their bank cards are called Spirit Transport Stone."
The Shadow projected the image of the Spirit Transport Stone directly into Ling Yi's mind.
A square piece of black cesium stone.
It is about 5 millimeters thick and 4 centimeters long and wide.
The front is engraved with the name of Spirit Transport Trading Company, and the back is decorated with complex Formation Pattern.
"The Spirit Transport Trading Company is backed by the Heavenly Sword Sect, which is currently the strongest sect in the Immortal Cultivation Realm, without exception."
"Originally, the purpose of establishing the Spirit Transport Trading Company was to help sects transport Spirit Stone."
"It wasn't called the Spirit Transport Trading Company before; it was just a department within the Heavenly Sword Sect specifically responsible for transporting Spirit Stone."
"But because of the Heavenly Sword Sect's reputation, this department, besides transporting Spirit Stone for its own sect, is occasionally approached for help."
"Helping you won't be for nothing; you'll receive some benefits in return."
"Over time, as they took on more and more work, some clever people suggested that they establish the Spirit Transport Trading Company in the name of the Heavenly Sword Sect."
"A business that specializes in transporting Spirit Stone."
With the Heavenly Sword Sect backing them up, almost no one in the Immortal Cultivation Realm dares to make a move.
"In the course of the Spirit Transport Trading Company's operation, there will always be Big Smarty who discover the troubles in the storage and exchange of Spirit Stone."
"So they created the Spirit Transport Stone. As long as the local branch of the Spirit Transport Trading Company has the Spirit Stone, it can be deposited and retrieved from other locations."
Ling Yi nodded. This was the prototype of a bank!
Ling Yi looked at the almost-complete phone in his hand.
The biggest hurdle for him now is the mobile payment function.
However, to complete mobile payment, it is necessary to connect with the bank, namely Spirit Transport Trading Company, for data integration.
If it's a legitimate bank.
The possibility of cooperation is still high.
But the Heavenly Sword Sect is a sect that rose to power by deceiving the entire Immortal Cultivation Realm.
Is it reliable?
Ling Yi would never believe it, not even if you beat him to death.
Instead of doing that, why not just start your own bank?
But the thought of running a bank himself gave Ling Yi a headache.
That's too much trouble.
"Is there an easier way?" Ling Yi frowned.
"For example!" the Shadow retorted.
"For example, we could create an encrypted, public storage space. When storing Spirit Stone, Ling Yi could simply scan the QR code with his phone, and the stones would be automatically stored in this public storage space."
"When retrieving Spirit Stone, you can extract them directly from this public storage space."
"Theoretically speaking, it's possible," Shadow said after searching through his database.
"However, it requires a considerable amount of work, and there are many problems that we need to solve ourselves."
"For example?" This time it was Ling Yi's turn to ask.
"The first challenge is the database problem, and the second is the identity verification problem."
"Yes, it can be solved!" Ling Yi nodded.
"The third question is about Spirit Stone consumption. Each scan requires energy. Who pays for this energy?"
"Of course, the money comes from the consumer."
Through their back-and-forth questioning, Ling Yi and Shadow gradually clarified their thoughts.
Once you have a clear idea and plan, getting started becomes much simpler.
If you need any materials, just ask Ji Lingtian. If you need any techniques, find out where they come from and have Shadow run around to get them.
Ling Yi was extremely busy and fully engaged in the task.
By noon, Ji Luo Xue felt that the phone Ling Yi had made seemed quite interesting.
They joined in as well.
In the afternoon, after learning about Ling Yi's idea, Ji Lingtian also felt that it had great potential and joined in.
I was busy until late at night.
Ling Yi finally overcame all the difficulties.
The Mystic Moon Mobile Phone Number One Device was developed.
"This thing, we finally managed to get it working." Ji Lingtian looked at the phone in his hand.
He skillfully swiped the screen.
"What are you going to do next?"
Ji Lingtian looked at Ling Yi.
Ling Yi thought for a moment and said, "Let's test and promote it within the sect first, see the effect, and check for any other problems."
"After all, signal base stations have limited coverage."
So-called signal base stations are actually public storage spaces.
In the Immortal Cultivation Realm, wherever there is Spiritual Qi, there is no delay in signal transmission.
However, accessing Spirit Stone requires Spatial Teleportation between the phone and the public storage space.
The farther the distance, the greater the consumption.
This requires signal base stations to act as relays.
