After the Underworld was completed and handed over to the Divine Land Continent, the System calmly and unhurriedly appeared.
"So, this practical lesson wasn't as difficult as I imagined, was it?"
"Yes, back then I had just Core Formation, and I had absolutely no clue how to do this practice. Looking back now, it was really just a matter of following the steps."
Li Xingkong recalled the time when he had just Core Formation core and felt that this thing was an extraordinary project.
Looking back now, this project did indeed involve some technical skill, but it didn't exceed the scope of knowledge provided by the system.
"It's done fairly well. The main functions are working normally. Other functions need further verification, but I think there are basically no problems. I can give you an excellent rating."
"The only slight drawback is that the Underworld's Fallout is limited. For now, it can only rely on the Soul-Guiding Banner to ferry souls, which limits its scope. This is a slight deduction."
Hearing the system's evaluation, Li Xingkong fell into deep thought.
Li Xingkong had actually considered matters related to this scope, since it was designed as the underworld. If it were just a small space created by attaching itself to the real world, it would be far from worthy of the name of the Underworld.
However, Li Xingkong didn't have a better way to improve it at the time, since he didn't have that much knowledge when he was designing it.
Looking back now, Li Xingkong had already encountered similar improvement methods, and more than one of them.
The first type is the long-range energy transmission technology of the Sihali Kingdom. This thing can remotely charge the projection of warships and provide ammunition, and it has a range-ignoring effect.
Although hidden anchor points are needed to reshape the projection, even so, this technique has absolutely broken through the limitations of scope.
The second type, which was also brought to Li Xingkong by the Sihali Kingdom, is the Shadow Plane.
Although this thing is not two-dimensional, it is basically superimposed on real space, and there is no distance limit between it and real objects.
If Li Xingkong can master either of these two techniques, then the problem of scope can be solved when applied to the Underworld.
Unfortunately, Li Xingkong was in a bit of a rush. He only knew how to use these technologies without delving into their underlying principles.
This is also why the system deducted some points from him.
If he hadn't encountered this technology, he would have already achieved what he has today. But the fact that Li Xingkong saw this technology yet failed to utilize it is his shortcoming.
Even so, the Underworld constructed by Li Xingkong can still be considered acceptable.
If this were the university system in Divine Land, Li Xingkong would have already completed his third-year practical training course ahead of schedule. Although this course wasn't directly related to academic studies, failing it would be a serious matter.
Before the training even began, many students fought tooth and nail for an internship certificate, going to great lengths to obtain one.
It's truly remarkable to have a one-on-one mentor like this from the system.
"Now that the practical lesson is over, are there any other arrangements?"
Although completing the construction of the Underworld did bring him a slight sense of accomplishment, his curiosity about the unknown meant that this sense of accomplishment didn't seem to excite Li Xingkong too much.
He had previously considered traveling to the star system where advanced civilizations resided, and now he was also curious about lower-dimensional worlds. This curiosity about the unknown made Li Xingkong somewhat eager to explore.
If the construction of this Underworld hadn't been a systematic arrangement, Li Xingkong would have wanted to start taking action long ago.
"What happens next? Let's talk about that after you've reached the Nine Revolutions Golden Core stage. For the rest of the time, cultivation is the most important thing."
The system replied lazily.
Since Li Xingkong entered the Golden Core stage, he has appeared less and less frequently. After all, much of the cultivation after the Golden Core is a slow and painstaking process that requires a long time to hone one's skills and improve slowly. This cultivation system cannot provide much help, let alone give Li Xingkong any new lessons.
The cultivation period for the Golden Core Stage is often a hundred years. If you add in unorthodox techniques, the cultivation time would be more than double.
Although Li Xingkong's concept of time is shifting towards that of an immortal being, this shift is only in its early stages. It will take him quite some time to truly adapt to the passage of time.
Before this, giving him extra lessons would only make Li Xingkong more impatient, which would not be conducive to his cultivation.
The arrangement of courses is also a skill; mindlessly piling up courses will only have the opposite effect.
"Okay, since there are no assignments, you can leave now. We'll call you again next time there's a project."
Li Xingkong laughed. He thought to himself, "How wonderful it would have been to have a teacher like that when I was in school."
"Get lost! Don't bother me if you don't have any good research topics. Do you know how busy I am?"
The system retorted, and then fell silent.
Li Xingkong smiled sincerely. To him now, the system was less like a system and more like a mentor, and one that truly treated him like a disciple.
Never mind, things are settled here at Divine Land, and the system has been tested. Now, it's time to get back to work according to the planned schedule.
Li Xingkong first contacted Baili Qiu to inquire about how the server business was going.
There's no other reason than that the server contains Li Xingkong's resurrection method, which has another function besides resurrection.
That is, whenever a server is reviewing entries or content related to Li Xingkong, the resurrection spell will be triggered, and thus be perceived by Li Xingkong's soul.
This became a form of indirect surveillance; if someone were to investigate matters related to him, Li Xingkong would be able to find out.
The reason for contacting Baili Qiu was the same.
Li Xingkong realized that at least three servers in the direction of the Sihali Kingdom had accessed his information and triggered the resurrection spell.
Although the three servers were located in different places, Li Xingkong could easily distinguish them.
As for what these people are going to do by checking their own qualifications, we'll have to see what Baili Qiu has to say.
After all, as a server, it serves the network of the Sihali Kingdom, so whatever these people do on the network naturally cannot escape the grasp of Fang Ritu.
Of course, as the party that sold the server, Baili Qiu should also be aware of this matter.
"Brother Baili, business is doing well! The server was built in just a few days."
Li Xingkong immediately offered his congratulations, which surprised Baili Qiu.
The mass production of servers was also a secret in the Sihali Kingdom, and he didn't know how Li Xingkong knew about it.
Judging from Li Xingkong's congratulations, it's clear that although the server has been handed over to him, Li Xingkong is still holding onto many secrets.
But it doesn't matter, since Li Xingkong and he are allies and share common interests in this matter anyway.
It's perfectly normal to have some secrets.
