Cultivation is just so scientific!

Chapter 1209: Chapter 651: Departure

Li Yuanba returned to cultivate at the Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion, while Li Shiming set foot on the Central State Continent.

Upon arriving at the Central State Continent, he began to launch drone satellites.

Now that he has advanced to the Nascent Soul Middle Stage, his control in the machine room space has reached 1 nanometer, which allows the drone satellites to be upgraded again.

Especially the core chip group, which has all been replaced with 1-nanometer chips.

Currently, the chips he can produce are divided into two types: one type can be mass-produced, manufactured at 40 nanometers, based on his accumulated technology.

The ability to manufacture 40-nanometer chips is mainly due to the series of machines used to make the chips, whose critical components are fabricated in the machine room space with his nanometer-level control.

The other type is the 1-nanometer chips crafted bit by bit in the machine room space using his consciousness and 1-nanometer control.

This type of 1-nanometer chip cannot be mass-produced and is reserved for places he considers especially important.

The drone satellite system, for instance, is currently his most crucial technological support, equipped with stronger chips that can provide higher intelligence and greater functionality.

Li Shiming is still very proud, as the 1-nanometer chips he produces, even in the technological world of his previous life, could only be created in small quantities in laboratories, with no possibility of mass production.

Moreover, as his cultivation level continues to rise, the control in his machine room space will continuously improve, allowing him to produce even more precise chips.

Li Shiming holds a map from Central State Commerce; the related maps of the Central State Continent are quite comprehensive.

Thanks to his experience setting up a drone satellite system on the Dongqi Continent, plus the aid of Central State Commerce’s map, he can avoid some powerful sects by directing the drones away from their territories, thus reducing a lot of trouble.

However, establishing a drone satellite system that spans the entire Central State Continent is not an easy task. The time required for drone satellites to traverse every corner of the continent is extremely long.

Nonetheless, he only needs to lay out the areas he is most concerned about first, and the future maintenance and replacements will be handled by Li Yuanba.

Establishing a drone satellite system across the whole Central State Continent would take several years.

On this trip, Li Shiming released ten drone satellites, initially extending from the coast near the Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion inland.

He came to the Central State Continent this time in search of Qiu Hengyi’s treasure.

After launching the first batch of drone satellites, he flew towards his target.

He did not hide himself, utilizing ’A Step Away from the Horizon’ as he is not an avatar, avoiding any unnecessary trouble.

This is the Central State Continent, home to the majority of the superpowers, each with at least one powerful being.

The secrets he carries are numerous, and it is best not to attract the attention of these powerful entities.

On the ’Blue Crystal Cloud-breaking Boat’, marked with Central State Commerce’s insignia, he is safe as long as he doesn’t attract too much attention.

Sitting inside the ’Blue Crystal Cloud-breaking Boat’, he examines exchangeable Spiritual Objects through the Guest Official Jade Plate.

He currently has over two million contribution points and needs to convert these points into strength.

Ever since he learned that above magic treasures are spirit treasures, he has placed more emphasis on the Path of Artifact Refining.

Since he can refine the Spirit Treasure Xingyi Sword, he can refine other spirit treasures, only needing top-grade fourth-grade refining materials suitable for himself.

Central State Commerce provides a plethora of exchangeable resources, but unfortunately, top-tier cultivation resources like ’Purple Thunder Plasma Liquid’ and ’Sword Transformation Spirit Liquid’ are absent.

Li Shiming understands, for such top-level cultivation resources, once they appear, they are typically taken directly by the upper echelon of the commerce, not left in the exchange list.

Moreover, cultivators who obtain such top-tier resources often wouldn’t take them out, instead using them themselves.

He continues to browse Central State Commerce’s top-grade fourth-grade materials list, while also placing part of his focus on his current two lifebound magic treasures; the IBMz15 need not be considered, as it cannot be enhanced through artifact refining methods, only the ’Heavenly Strike Thunder Hammer’ and ’Traceless Illusion Sword’ can be considered for enhancement.

He sets a new topic for his lifebound magic treasure IBMz15 regarding what materials from Central State Commerce’s list can enhance the ’Heavenly Strike Thunder Hammer’ and ’Traceless Illusion Sword’ to spirit treasure level.

He has two choices: if suitable top-grade fourth-grade refining materials are available, he will refine new spirit treasures.

If so, he would abandon his current lifebound magic treasures, rendering his previous refining and nurturing wasted.

He hopes to consider using contribution points to exchange materials to enhance the ’Heavenly Strike Thunder Hammer’ and ’Traceless Illusion Sword’, preserving the nurturing effects on his lifebound magic treasures which he is quite satisfied with.

Lifebound magic treasures can be enhanced, but require similar attribute refining materials for strengthening, allowing modifications during the enhancement process.

Many cultivators continue to use cultivated lifebound magic treasures after advancing levels, continually strengthening them with materials and altering rune engravings to align the lifebound magic treasures with their cultivation level.

Sword cultivators exemplify this; they seldom change their lifebound flying sword, instead investing significant resources to continually enhance it.
