Technology Just Flirted with Me
Yi Xuan himself was still in No. 1 Base at this time, and what Mu Anqing saw was just one application of Yi Xuan's newly developed holographic projection.
Mu Anqing looked in the direction of the light emanating from the image and saw a black, camera-like object swinging back and forth in a corner above the bedroom.
This holographic projection was produced by that thing.
The image of Yi Xuan smiled and shook his head, "Don't be so optimistic about your senior brother. If Rootless Person could be solved with just an Imaging Technique, then your senior brother would have wasted the past twenty years."
"But if you hadn't advanced to the Foundation Establishment, how could you Imaging Technique?" Mu Anqing was somewhat puzzled as to how Yi Xuan had managed it.
Yi Xuan pointed mysteriously to the projection device diagonally above and said, "Didn't you just see that thing? It's all thanks to that!"
"Oh!" Mu Anqing nodded with some disappointment after hearing Yi Xuan's words. As for why that thing could release Imaging Technique, Mu Anqing didn't care.
Seeing Mu Anqing's disappointed look, Yi Xuan reached out to pat her head to comfort her. But unexpectedly, his hand passed right through Mu Anqing's body.
Yi Xuan then realized that he was only communicating with Mu Anqing through a holographic projection.
This also demonstrates the power of holographic projection, which is why its inventor, Yi Xuan, became so engrossed in it in such a short time.
"Silly girl! Your senior brother only asked you to help out. You should know your limits before helping, right? Why did you get yourself into this state? Do you know how serious it is for a cultivator to have their True Essence depleted?"
Hearing Yi Xuan's reproach, Mu Anqing smiled sheepishly and said, "Senior brother, I just saw how anxious you were, so I couldn't think of anything else and just wanted to help you! Besides, I just checked, and it's not as serious as you say. The depletion of my True Essence didn't cause me any harm!"
Hearing Mu Anqing's nonchalant words, Yi Xuan raised his hand to knock her down, but then remembered that he was just a projection, so he had no choice but to put his hand down.
He then added, "Hmph! It's all because I, your senior brother, had the Origin Returning Pill and fed it to you immediately. Otherwise, you would definitely have suffered internal injuries. Although it won't affect your cultivation in the short term, it will be more than twice as difficult for you to advance to the Golden Core stage later!"
Hearing Yi Xuan's words, Mu Anqing felt a wave of fear. At the same time, after learning that her senior brother had wasted an Origin Returning Pill for her sake, she felt very guilty. She never expected that her senior brother would help her again.
Although Yi Xuan wasn't the shrewd type, he was far superior to the naive Mu Anqing, seeing through Mu Anqing's thoughts at a glance.
He shook his head and said to her, "Are you feeling sorry for your senior brother about that Origin Returning Pill again?"
Having had his thoughts read by Yi Xuan, Mu Anqing had no choice but to nod.
Seeing her like this, Yi Xuan felt even more embarrassed. He knew that Junior Sister Mu needed the Origin Returning Pill injuries because of his help. So he said, "I should thank you for this. Without your help, I wouldn't have been able to create the Imaging Technique you see now! Your help is far more valuable than a single Origin Returning Pill. Besides, why did you use this Origin Returning Pill? Wasn't it because you exhausted your True Essence to help me?"
Yi Xuan comforted Mu Anqing a couple more times, then left behind a whole bottle of Origin Returning Pill before turning off the holographic projection.
Since Mu Anqing has already woken up, it means there's nothing wrong with her. The physique of a cultivator is incomparable to that of an ordinary person. Don't be fooled by the fact that Mu Anqing needs to hold onto something to sit up now; she might be able to fly through the air in an hour.
Therefore, after confirming that Mu Anqing was without any problems, Yi Xuan resumed his research on holographic projection.
From a purely technical standpoint, Yi Xuan had already mastered holographic projection technology by relying on the Imaging Technique of the Cultivation Realm.
However, mastering a technology is always the first step; the most important thing is to apply that technology.
Just like nanotechnology in my previous life, it was promoted all over the world very early on.
In those years, Yi Xuan also bought all sorts of products that supposedly used nanomaterials.
But after Yi Xuan became a technician, he discovered that those so-called products using nanotechnology were nothing but a sham.
Products that can truly be developed using nanotechnology are extremely rare.
However, the holographic projector in Yi Xuan's hand would not have this problem, since the application of holographic projection technology had already shown initial success in Yi Xuan's bedroom.
With holographic projection technology in mind, Yi Xuan had countless applications coming to mind. Not wanting to miss this prime opportunity, he threw himself into developing new products, and even an hour later, when No. 01 informed him that Yi Xuan Mu Anqing had left, he didn't stop.
Half a day later, a bracelet-like object appeared on Yi Xuan's right wrist. Yi Xuan gently stroked the bracelet with his left hand, and a blue light suddenly appeared on the bracelet. Then, a virtual screen was projected from the bracelet into the air.
Looking at the screen generated by the bracelet's holographic projection function, Yi Xuan tried operating it with her left hand. Although she didn't feel the physical touch, the virtual screen was still very responsive.
After fiddling with the virtual screen a few more times, Yi Xuan looked at the tablet computer he had been using on the table, shook his head, and muttered to himself, "It seems that rapid technological development isn't always a good thing. This tablet computer was only developed less than a month ago, and it's already becoming obsolete."
Fortunately, although Yi Xuan has many advantages, she lacks the quality of nostalgia.
For a researcher, nostalgia is the beginning of technological stagnation; only researchers without ambition will constantly reminisce about past glories.
Next, Yi Xuan entered the main control room of No. 1 Base and made sweeping modifications to it.
Two days later, with the improvements to the control room completed, it turned out that there was another person in the control room besides Yi Xuan.
You can tell from her back view that she is a woman. She has a curvaceous figure and a graceful posture. Even without seeing her face, you can tell that she must be a stunning beauty.
The woman's attire was completely unlike that of the Cultivation Realm; instead, it resembled the clothing and appearance of Yi Xuan from his previous life.
High heels, black stockings, a skirt suit, and a white shirt—she looked every bit the secretary.
Yi Xuan stared blankly at the woman, a familiar face slowly approaching Yi Xuan.
"You... you... Yang... Yang?... Da Mimi?"
"That's right! It's me!"
Da Mimi approached Yi Xuan and whispered in Yi Xuan ear.
Yi Xuan's face turned bright red, and he felt the hairs on the back of his head stand on end. At the same time, he shouted into the air, "No. 01! Stop!"
With Yi Xuan's command, Da Mimi's figure vanished into thin air.
"Call!"
Yi Xuan let out a long breath, took a few deep breaths, and then muttered to himself, "Was I just swayed by technology?"
