The Reborn Black Tortoise

A month later, two identical mechs were placed in the center of the main hall of Yi Xuan's No. 2 Base.

Judging from their appearance, these two mechs should indeed be the Black Tortoise, as there is no difference in their shape or the color of their paint.

However, if there were a Black Tortoise placed nearby, it would be clear that the two mechs in the hall were significantly taller than the previous Black Tortoise, with an estimated height of around four meters.

These two mechs are the Black Tortoise, which Yi Xuan completed, or rather, an upgraded version of the Black Tortoise. Yi Xuan named these two mechs Black Tortoise No. 2.

During his last battle with Qi Yun in the Artifact Ruins, Yi Xuan discovered many problems with the Black Tortoise.

In that state, the Black Tortoise was more than capable of dealing with Golden Core True Person, but it was simply not enough against Nascent Soul experts.

The result was starkly revealed to Yi Xuan: the Black Tortoise was split in two, and even its energy shield device was directly destroyed.

So after returning, Yi Xuan had the idea of upgrading Black Tortoise. For a whole month after leaving Fatty Lin, Yi Xuan didn't go anywhere. He worked hard in No. 2 Base for a month and finally completed the improvement of Black Tortoise No. 2.

"No. 07, let's begin the testing!"

"Okay, boss!"

Under the control of No. 01, the two Black Tortoise No. 2 began their first startup and, with the assistance of No. 07, began self-testing.

Just like the first experiment with the Black Tortoise, because it was in the base, and especially now that the Black Tortoise had become a behemoth four meters tall, Yi Xuan only dared to let it perform some basic function tests.

The basic tests were relatively simple, and the two mechs completed them in less than half an hour.

The results were equally encouraging; all the basic tests met Yi Xuan's expectations.

Furthermore, during the basic testing of Black Tortoise No. 2, their movements seemed to become even smoother.

Of course, this is also one of the results of this upgrade, namely, Yi Xuan added a flexible metal material obtained from the Artifact Ruins to the main structural connections inside the Black Tortoise.

This material could be said to be something that Yi Xuan had dreamed of in his previous life.

It is precisely because of the addition of this material that the main transmission structure inside the Black Tortoise has been freed from the rigid connection method.

If the original transmission mechanism inside the Black Tortoise was like the connection between bones in the human body, then the addition of this flexible metal material is like adding cartilage between two bones.

It not only makes the transmission smoother, but also protects the interconnected parts, preventing them from becoming overly fatigued during long-term operation.

Furthermore, this flexible metal material can also provide some shock absorption during the Black Tortoise's combat operations; however, the specifics will depend on subsequent tests.

With a wave of his hand, Yi Xuan stored the two Black Tortoise No. 2 into the ring on his hand. Through his Divine Sense, Yi Xuan could clearly feel that the two Black Tortoise No. 2 were currently parked in a corner of the Artifact Sect Great Hall. At the same time, not far from the two mechs, the brand-new Firmament and two laser emitters were placed there.

This place is a storage area temporarily designated by Yi Xuan. A scan with his Divine Sense reveals that this area is no different from the one he had in the Artifact Ruins.

However, apart from this area, the rest of the Artifact Sect Great Hall was like a demolition site, with all sorts of robots, equipment, and construction machinery working hard to complete the construction of Yi Xuan's personal research center as soon as possible.

This is why Yi Xuan, who previously possessed items like Storage Bag, only began establishing a personal research center after acquiring the Artifact Ruins Hall.

Although they may both appear to be storage-type spatial Law Treasure, they are fundamentally different.

The Storage Bag is like a compressed space bag, with the inside completely frozen due to the compression.

Just like a refrigerator, as long as the size allows, Yi Xuan can store anything in it. However, once it's stored, it's as if it's been flash-frozen; time doesn't pass on it. Time will only continue to affect the item when Yi Xuan takes it out of the Storage Bag again.

However, the ring that appeared in the Artifact Sect Great Hall was completely different. If the Storage Bag compresses space, then the ring folds space.

Within the folded space of the Artifact Sect Great Hall, time still exists, allowing Yi Xuan to place his robots and engineering equipment inside, enabling them to autonomously construct a research center within it.

Unfortunately, Yi Xuan's research revealed that while the ring allowed objects to move, it could not accommodate living beings. No living creature could be placed inside the ring, which contained a folded space. Only when the space of the Artifact Sect Great Hall was reopened could living beings be allowed to enter.

Yi Xuan didn't care about such things. After all, Yi Xuan was already very satisfied with the current Artifact Sect Great Hall. If it could really accommodate living beings, wouldn't that be like a safe haven anytime, anywhere?

Whenever Yi Xuan is in danger, he can go inside the ring, and once the danger has passed, Yi Xuan can come out of the ring again.

This kind of operation is quite interesting to think about, but Yi Xuan also knows that this idea can only be a fantasy for now. If such technology really existed in the Cultivation Realm, then the High Antiquity Artifact Sect would not have perished.

Upon arriving at the valley above, the traces left by the Black Tortoise during the last test were still very obvious, especially the hilltop that had been attacked before, which now looked as if its head had been removed, which was quite comical.

Yi Xuan summoned the two Black Tortoise, boarded one of them himself, and handed the other over to the mech's built-in artificial intelligence for control.

The two mechs stood a hundred meters apart, motionless.

Suddenly, the two mechs were launched simultaneously, and in an instant, they collided like two prehistoric behemoths.

An impact of this magnitude would have caused some deformation to the surface of the aircraft if it were the previous Black Tortoise.

However, at this time, the two Black Tortoise No. 2 only had some wear and tear on the surface paint, but the mechs themselves were not damaged at all.

Seeing this, Yi Xuan ordered the two mechs to engage in close combat.

Both mechs simultaneously reached up to their shoulders, and then a two-meter-long sword appeared in the right hand of each mech.

The two Black Tortoise No. 2 mechs were like two warriors, their long swords clashing back and forth in the air, making a clanging sound.

A closer look at the two mechs reveals that their swordsmanship is not simple; their moves are extremely sharp.

This was precisely the result of Yi Xuan inputting the martial arts data he possessed into the mecha's computer.

Even if the mechs don't have Martial Dao skills, these moves still significantly enhance their close-range attack power.
