Chapter 339 Scientists never spend their own money on research and development
The secret realm on hand, Jin'ao Island, the branch base of the Jinling Immortal Sect.
This branch base has a similar architectural layout to the Lishan main base and is also located underground.
This base was originally reserved by Wen Rui. Once he could no longer stay in Lishan, he would move here to continue hiding. Therefore, the branch base also has the same facilities as the main base.
On the eighteenth floor underground in the branch base, in the magic weapon laboratory, Wen Rui was standing in front of the lab table, staring at the magic weapon being tempered in the refining cauldron.
It was illogical for Wen Rui to appear in the secret realm.
Because all the formation runes in the secret realm were originally engraved on Wen Rui's body, it was impossible for him to insert the dolls into his own body.
Wen Rui in the secret realm is actually the incarnation of merit.
Gods who have been deified for their merits can transform themselves into projections and descend to the small worlds of the heavens. The incarnation has 10% of the cultivation level of the original body, is connected to the original body's consciousness, has common feelings, and can receive the infusion of magic power from the original body.
The incarnation of merit and virtue are not the same as the immortal art of clone.
The art of clones cannot achieve the projection of consciousness, just like when a monkey uses hair as a medium to perform the art of clones, the fake monkey that is created has certain abilities of the original body, but it is already another individual.
The incarnation of merit is the projection of the deity's true self that responds to the believers' prayers and bestows blessings upon them.
For example, where there is a statue of Guan Gong, once evil spirits approach, the projection of Guandi will come down to kill the evil.
Wen Rui is also the emperor's deity. By placing his statue, he can naturally project his incarnation and descend.
This effectively solved the problem of his body being unable to enter the portable secret realm.
After being deified, Wen Rui gained many divine abilities. Although many of these abilities were very basic and could not constitute much combat effectiveness, they were very convenient if used properly.
It can solve many practical problems that cannot be solved by scientific and technological means.
To count them all, the ones he has used include stepping on auspicious clouds, soundproof space, secret sound transmission, and the incarnation arrival that he is using now.
In addition, there are also the functions of destroying evil, controlling ghosts, exorcising demons, bestowing blessings, being immune to water and fire, enjoying incense, absorbing vows, etc.
After all, he was a righteous god appointed by the Jade Emperor through the List of Conferred Gods, and he had all the divine authority that a god should have.
In other words, mortals in the mortal world can make statues of Wen Rui and worship him every day. If they sincerely believe in Wen Rui, when he is in a good mood, he can really bless the believers.
In the Jinling territory at the foot of Mount Li, the major warehouses of the Chamber of Commerce, the production alliance cities of the Hundred Thousand Mountains Demon Clan, and the Demon Commercial Alliance in the Underworld Demon Realm, the Wen Emperor Temple has been built and the golden statue of Emperor Wen has been enshrined.
These temples and golden statues are like signal base stations. When Wen Rui accumulates faith and willpower to a certain level, he can project his incarnation to convey divine inspiration and remotely control his power in the three realms.
Believers' worship at the Wen Emperor Temple will not be in vain, as Wen Rui's ministry can bring him blessings.
The first blessing can improve the efficiency of science learning, allowing students to enter a state of concentration and master the knowledge of mathematics, physics, and chemistry more firmly.
The second blessing can increase the success rate of craftsmen in creating workpieces, and inspire them to develop new products and invent new things.
The third blessing can improve scholars’ understanding, especially when they are comprehending areas related to the laws of nature, increasing their creativity and broadening their thinking.
Although the three blessings are good, they are a bit too advanced. Only students in colleges and universities at all levels in the territory who are studying the new knowledge of Jiejiao can really feel that they are helpful.
The ordinary people, monsters, and demons have a low literacy rate. Even if they worship Emperor Wen and receive blessings, they can't use them at all and will only think that they are ineffective.
Therefore, Wen Rui's efficiency in obtaining the power of faith and vows may not be as good as that of the Joyful Bodhisattva who was destroyed by him that year. After all, when believers worship the Joyful Bodhisattva, they can stand upright with a pillar as high as the sky and a golden gun as strong as a spear that night, and the effect is immediate.
Foolish believers only care about whether their worship of gods is effective or not, and don't care about anything else.
Wen Rui believes that his priesthood is of great significance to the development of civilization, but from the perspective of dissemination, he is afraid that he will not be able to gain many believers for a long time and will not be able to accumulate much power of vows.
With the sincere worship of the science students he had trained in the territory, the little wish power that Wen Rui had accumulated was only enough for him to project his avatar into the portable secret realm and do some scientific research on his own. At least he could play a role, which was better than nothing.
The refining cauldron on the experimental table was the one he had embezzled from the Tiangongjian. It was the best quality cauldron in the collection.
What was being tempered in the cauldron was a handful of golden dust.
Pieces of fairy jade were thrown into the refining cauldron like firewood, and tens of thousands of spirit stones were consumed every moment.
It's just burning money.
But Wen Rui didn't feel sorry at all. All the expenses were embezzled public funds, and were all paid by the Jade Emperor.
Otherwise, relying solely on his salary as the emperor, it would be really painful to spend so much money.
What is being refined in the cauldron is the nano-unit dust particles made of fairy-grade material. To put it simply, the metal material that originally constructed the nano-units has been replaced with the divine iron from heaven.
There are many kinds of divine iron in heaven. Wen Rui searched the Tiangongjian warehouse for a long time before he found the kind of divine iron with the most suitable material properties for making nano units.
Following the guidance of the Golden Spirit Mother, Wen Rui also poured his own merits into the cauldron during the tempering process. While the Samadhi True Fire was tempering it, the merit Spirit Fire was tempering it again. These nano units were then bound to his own spiritual consciousness and were not afraid of any gold-controlling magical powers.
The nano units refined by this method are only mid-level fairy treasures from the perspective of magic weapons.
If the spiritual treasures refined by the weapon refiners in the mortal world are of blank quality, then the initial stage immortal treasures are of green quality, and the intermediate stage immortal treasures are at best fine products with slightly better attributes among the green ones.
In the final analysis, Wen Rui's cultivation level is too low. He is not a real immortal who has cultivated step by step to become an immortal.
The foundation for mortals to become gods through merit is still not solid. Even if they have mastered the Jinling Sect's top treasure refining knowledge, they are still unable to refine magic weapons.
The brain can do it, but the hands can’t.
Under the precise control of the incarnation of merit, the golden dust in the cauldron flashed with precious light, and the cauldron was successfully taken out of the furnace and the ritual was successfully completed.
A space vortex opened from the mouth of the cauldron, and the golden dust was summoned, gathering into a ball like life and flying into the vortex.
Inside the Creation Hall, a ball of golden mist spurted out from Wen Rui's chest, surrounded his body, and was inhaled into his body when he opened his mouth.
The golden fairy-level nano-unit replaced the silver ordinary iron nano-unit, and Wen Rui only felt that his control over his body had been further improved.
The original nano units were controlled by electromagnetic signals through implanted chips, while the immortal-level nano units were like golden hoop sticks and could be directly controlled by thoughts.
No matter how fast the electromagnetic signal propagates, there will be a delay, but thoughts can start from 0 frames and respond immediately to whatever the mind thinks.
Since coming to the Heavenly Palace, Wen Rui's nanotechnology has been greatly reduced. He can no longer release huge amounts of nano-clouds like he did in the mortal world, and can no longer simulate the effects of great supernatural powers by manipulating countless nano-units to form various technological structures.
The microscopic observation scale of the monks in the mortal world with their naked eyes is not enough to see the essence of the nano units, so they have no way to target them.
The gods and immortals in heaven are full of hidden talents. The nanoscale is too conspicuous for the immortals in the Golden Immortal Realm and can be seen through and cracked at a glance.
In addition, Tianting has extremely strong signal interference, and the nano units in the body can still be controlled. Once they leave the body, the nano units made by Fantie will immediately lose connection with the network and cannot be controlled.
Only after he had refined the immortal-grade nano-unit did Wen Rui feel slightly relieved. He could finally use nano-technology in Heaven without having to worry about it being easily cracked by others.
However, the fairy-level nano units also have major flaws, namely, they are expensive and have severely insufficient production capacity.
After burning a large amount of embezzled materials and fairy jade and working hard for a long time, he only got a cauldron.
With such a small number, it would be a drop in the bucket to want to use nanorobots as recklessly as in the mortal world.
