"Yes, yes, yes! What the Holy Son says is absolutely right, then I will say no more."
Wu Cang shrugged and tactfully changed the subject.
"Speaking of which, your clan is truly resourceful. Before we King Who Pacifies Jing's Residence, we even had difficulty sending a spy to the Chen Kingdom's capital."
"But you managed to bypass Chen Kingdom's meticulous reconnaissance network and arrive silently outside the Chen Kingdom's capital with an army of millions. I truly admire you."
"Hehe, actually, Chen Mu, the sect leader of the Rune Research Institute, is quite capable."
However, his biggest mistake was provoking our Heavenly Puppet Sect. No matter how advanced his Rune Technology is, as long as it remains within the realm of runes, our Heavenly Puppet Sect has a way to deal with it.
An old Daoist priest chuckled at Wu Cang, his face wrinkled and looking quite unsightly.
Since Wei Wencheng was captured by Chen Mu last time, the sect leader of the Heavenly Puppet Sect has been furious. He personally came out of seclusion and summoned a large number of talisman cultivator elders to deal with Chen Mu.
However, the truth is that they suffered greatly from Chen Mu's Rune Technology. Chen Mu's unprecedented rune structures, rune usage methods, and the combination of runes and mechanisms left them completely helpless.
The Rune Technology created by Chen Mu differs significantly from traditional rune cultivation in that it prioritizes the Rules of Heaven and Earth, with runes playing a secondary role.
Traditional talisman cultivation, on the other hand, focuses on talismans as the primary method and the Rules of Heaven and Earth as secondary.
The relationship between the Rules of Heaven and Earth and earth and runes is like the relationship between mathematics and numbers. Runes are the embodiment of the Rules of Heaven and Earth. People can communicate with the Rules of Heaven and Earth and Rules of Heaven and Earth through runes and thus easily utilize them.
But what are the Rules of Heaven and Earth?
For example, if someone wants to see something at a distance, from a scientific perspective, a telescope can be made using the principle of reflection imaging. This principle of reflection imaging is a kind of Rules of Heaven and Earth.
However, merely knowing the principle of reflection imaging does not mean comprehending the Rules of Heaven and Earth. One must understand what angle, distance, and lens size are needed to see objects at a certain distance, etc., and have all these elements thoroughly memorized and skillfully applied. Only then can one be said to have comprehended a Rules of Heaven and Earth.
In a fantasy world, applying the Rules of Heaven and Earth is not as complex as on Earth. Many things that are difficult to accomplish with bare hands are very easy for cultivators to achieve.
This is because the Spiritual Power or the demonic power of the Devil Race race in this world are actually quite similar.
Spiritual Power is very active, and after being refined by cultivators, it can be transformed into various semi-materials, such as metal, wood, water, fire, earth, Yin and Yang Qi, thunder, and so on.
At this point, the cultivator acts as a matter-energy conversion furnace, combining the Rules of Heaven and Earth and earth with semi-matter to achieve various amazing supernatural abilities.
For example, if a cultivator wants to see a real-time scene thousands of miles away, they can first transform their Spiritual Power into a kind of optical instrument structure, then locate the spatial coordinates, and project their optical instrument there, thus seeing the scene at the destination.
Normally, to achieve these functions, one must master the two Rules of Heaven and Earth: 'spatial rules' and 'optical rules'. However, these are extremely difficult for most cultivators to master.
At this time, advanced runes, martial arts, soul skills, secret techniques, and other skills emerged. The purpose of these skills was to simplify the rules. As long as one learned the skills, and only had a superficial understanding of the Rules of Heaven and Earth, one could achieve the corresponding abilities.
Returning to the topic of rune cultivation, the runes in this world have been developing for tens of thousands of years, forming a very mature rune system. Most rune cultivators do not need to understand the Rules of Heaven and Earth; they only need to master the runes to become powerful rune cultivators.
This has led to many talisman practitioners abusing runes. For example, to create a flying talisman, traditional talisman practitioners would simply combine low-level runes such as levitation talisman, Light Body Talisman, and a large number of wind talismans to create a flying talisman.
This approach is like trying to build a car by taking parts from a bicycle, tractor, and electric fan – it results in a lot of waste and poor performance.
Chen Mu's Rune Technology, on the other hand, is to piece together a car from scratch from the most basic Rules of Heaven and Earth. The efficiency of material utilization and the effect of the final product are obvious.
The reason why Chen Kingdom was able to grasp so many Rules of Heaven and Earth was because of the ' Rule Analysis Device ' invented by Chen Mu. Any expert who broke through to the Core Formation Realm or above in the Chen Kingdom, as long as they used the ' Rule Analysis Device ', would have their understanding of the Rules of Heaven and Earth converted into data stored in the Chen Kingdom's data center.
The disciples of the Rune Research Institute may not have higher cultivation levels than rune masters from other sects, but they can access the digitized Rules of Heaven and Earth from the data center. Therefore, their understanding of the Rules of Heaven and Earth will naturally surpass that of other rune masters.
In the short term, the rune masters of the Chen Kingdom did not show any special abilities, but as time goes by, Chen Kingdom strength will naturally be gradually revealed. In the future rune master world, the Rune Research Institute will surely become the authority.
While studying the Rune Technology of the Chen Kingdom, the Heavenly Puppet Sect gradually realized the potential of the Rune Research Institute.
That's why they defied the world and launched a surprise attack on the Chen Kingdom while the Chen Kingdom was at war with the Abyss Devil Race.
Their goal was to destroy the Rune Research Institute, and to destroy this powerful sect that could overturn the world of rune masters.
So how did they ultimately deal with the Chen Kingdom's reconnaissance Rune Artifacts? It's actually quite simple: they started by manipulating the Rules of Heaven and Earth, Rune Artifacts ineffective.
In fact, before attacking Chen Kingdom, they had already conducted extensive experiments on the Chen Kingdom's reconnaissance Rune Artifacts. With their intentions on the side of surprise, even if Chen Kingdom's intelligent defense system was advanced, it could not be as cunning as the talisman masters of the Heavenly Puppet Sect.
The Heavenly Puppet Sect also has Saint Level experts. With their level of expertise, it wouldn't be difficult for them to create a magical artifact that could shield them from the detection of Chen Kingdom Rune Artifacts. After all, no matter how special Chen Kingdom's Rune Artifacts are, they are still made using the Rules of Heaven and Earth. In this respect, Saint Level experts have an advantage.
"Alright! Wu Cang, stop talking so much."
After fighting for so long, it seems they haven't produced any truly formidable fighters.
Let's make our move! If they haven't left any experts here, we'll tear down their capital!
One general leaped into the air, and after exchanging glances, several of the remaining men followed suit, soaring into the sky.
This general was named Lu Hai, ranked thirty-first on the Heaven Ranking. He was one of the two most valued generals under the King of King Who Pacifies Jing and the commander-in-chief responsible for the surprise attack on the Chen Kingdom.
Besides Lu Hai, King Who Pacifies Jing has dispatched five experts at the Mid Emperor Level or above, a battle formation legion, and two Emperor Level talisman masters from the Heavenly Puppet Sect. This lineup is much higher in quality than the Devil Race's attack on Moon Capital Pass, except for being slightly inferior in number.
This demonstrates the determination of King Who Pacifies Jing and the Heavenly Puppet Sect to destroy the Chen Kingdom.
