Chapter 1092: Small Thing

Translator: 549690339

Xia Ping ‘an played with the’ Zhang Daoling’s ‘Realm Pearl in his hand and put it away again, as if he had not had enough.

At this moment, Dragon Rearing Star was the only one on the flying boat that still had some battle strength. It was not the right time to fuse the Realm Pearl. If something happened to the flying boat while he was fusing, it would be terrible. Moreover, this Realm Pearl was definitely not easy to fuse. Before fusing, he had to be prepared.

A good meal is never late!

” The Ruling Demon God’s subordinate has appeared in the Spirit Wilderness Secret Realm, and there’s more than one of them. The demon race’s Godly Spirit Venerable Rank is actually starting to stir up trouble everywhere, wanting to control the spatial passages in the Spirit Wilderness. This is not a good sign…”

Xia Ping ‘an muttered softly to himself. Although the current turmoil in the Spirit Wilderness Secret Realm was related to him, the demon race’s forces had been coveting the Spirit Wilderness Secret Realm for a long time. Just like in the Five Magnificent Pools, many of those who surrounded him were ancient god bloodline families who had been roped in by the demon race and had joined the demon race. He was at most the fuse. The real source was the war between the gods. The war between the two rulers and the two forces swept through the universe. In the Spirit Wilderness Secret Realm, it was gradually heating up. Such a large environment would affect everyone in the Spirit Wilderness mystic realm.

God…

It was truly a word that made people feel awe. He did not know when he would be able to advance to Rank-9 Godly Venerable Rank. That was the lowest threshold for becoming a God.

Xia Pingan shook his head gently and returned to the puppet workshop. The smelting furnace in the workshop was burning brightly as it smelted the special metals that Xia Pingan had prepared. Some of the smelted metals were automatically removed from the furnace and cooled into standard metal parts in a fixed mold. Then, they were sent to the caterpillar assembly line, where they were further cut and imprinted with elementary energy runes. Then, they were grabbed by metal arms and placed in front of Xia Pingan’s work table.

Xia Pingan’s work desk was a little messy at this moment. There were hundreds of metal objects of various sizes placed on it. Some of the metal objects were cubic, some were round, some were rhombus, some were triangular, and other shapes. Other than a few items that were the size of basketballs, the rest of the objects were at most the size of a fist…

These things were the products that Xia Pingan had processed in the puppet workshop of the flying boat these days. Actually, they couldn’t be called products. They were just some experimental items. These days, Xia Pingan had seen a lot of blueprints for processing all kinds of strange metal puppets collected by Dragon Rearing Family. His inspiration had been triggered, and he was itching to learn some skills. Since he had a lot of time in the flying boat, he couldn’t help but want to make something.

Xia Pingan’s goal was to create a metal puppet similar to the Immortal Army. The Immortal Army’s indestructible form that could be reassembled at will had given him a great inspiration. If he could create some kind of metal puppet and give those metal puppets the ability to change their bodies at will without fear of being destroyed, that would be interesting.

The liquid metal that formed the Immortal Army was too rare, and Xia Pingan did not have much stock on hand, so he could not mass produce it. There was no point in making a few of them at the moment, so Xia Pingan was prepared to find another way to make the metal puppets. He wanted to use materials that were sturdy and durable, could withstand all kinds of attacks, were not easily destroyed, had low costs, and had a large amount of materials.

Over the past 20 days, Xia Ping ‘an had experimented with over 10,000 superalloy formulas here. Two days ago, he finally found a formula that satisfied him. This superalloy was mainly made of star iron, plus cloud tungsten, gold tungsten, purple titanium, mountain tungsten, and a small amount of sun iron.

The cost of this super alloy was only 30% higher than Star Iron, but its performance was more than 10 times that of Star Iron. Other than Sun Iron, the other ingredients could be obtained in large quantities. These metal materials were piled up in Xia Ping ‘an’s secret mandala warehouse. They were all spoils of war over the years. Although Sun Iron was precious, it could easily satisfy the needs because it was too small in the alloy.

Now that he had the raw materials, the most important thing left was actually the idea of manufacturing it. In terms of being indestructible, the liquid metal puppets like the Immortal Army were a good idea, but the conditions for this idea to be realized were too harsh. The time and material costs required were too high, and it could not meet Xia Pingan’s needs.

Therefore, Xia Pingan changed his way of thinking. The idea of being unable to be destroyed could be realized in another way, which was to break the whole into pieces and be replaced at any time. One was everything, and everything was one. To overcome complexity with simplicity, quantity over quality.

With this change in his train of thought, Xia Pingan felt that everything before him had suddenly become clear. The design ideas and ideas in his mind gradually took shape. The various strange metal objects on the workbench were the products of his previous failed experiments. As the number of experiments increased, Xia Pingan’s mind became clearer.

The flying ship was still flying toward Dragon Rearing’s house with determination. Xia Ping ‘an continued to immerse himself in his thoughts and busied himself in front of the puppet workshop’s workbench. He even forgot to rest and eat. All kinds of strange parts were being manufactured by his hands.

After seven or eight days, Xia Pingan, who was in the puppet workshop, suddenly laughed out loud.” Haha, it’s done!”

Xia Pingan, who was standing in front of his work desk, was all smiles. He looked at the small object floating in front of him with a satisfied expression. This small object looked very unremarkable. It was only about the height of a fist and was slightly thicker than a thumb. It looked like two small four-sided pyramids that were fused at the bottom to form a conical octahedron with two pointed ends.

At this moment, there were thousands of metal objects of different shapes on the workbench. With a wave of Xia Pingan’s hand, these thousands of metal objects of different shapes flew into the smelting furnace. The workbench was cleared in an instant, and it became clean and tidy again. In the end, only this pitch-black, inconspicuous, conical octahedron was left.

This little thing floated quietly in front of Xia Pingan’s eyes, not moving at all. Xia Pingan looked at this little thing as if it was the first time he had created the Primal Chaos Immortal Sealing Formation. It was filled with an unconcealable sense of accomplishment.

“After tormenting myself for so many days, I have finally managed to get it out. Sigh, I have forgotten to rest and sleep these past few days. Let’s go and rest first…” Xia Pingan stretched and turned to walk back to his room.

Xia Pingan looked out of the window of the room. Stars filled the sky outside. It was already night time. The flying boat was shuttling quickly through the continuous clouds. Through the clouds, he could vaguely see the lights on the ground and the continuous city. It seemed that the flying boat had entered a densely populated area. Even in the air, he could feel the dense spiritual qi gathering on the ground. In the distant sky, he could also see other flying boats cutting through the night sky.

The surface of the Divine Court Domain, where Dragon Rearing Family’s Heavenly Square City was located, was one of the most densely populated and prosperous areas in the Spirit Wilderness Mystic Realm. It should only be a few days ‘journey from here to Dragon Rearing Family’s Heavenly Square City. Along the way, one could see cities and residential areas everywhere. The smoke and fire of the human world could soothe the hearts of mortals the most.

Xia Ping ‘an looked at the stars in the sky and took a comfortable hot bath. He ate a Longevity and Fasting Pill and went to sleep.

He slept until dawn the next day.

Xia Pingan was in high spirits after waking up. After washing up, changing his clothes, and having a meal, he returned to the puppet workshop, which had been restored to a clean and tidy state.

There was nothing on the work table except for the black, cone-shaped octahedron floating quietly in front of the work table.

Xia Pingan willed the black, cone-shaped octagonal object to fly in front of him with a whoosh. It was as fast as lightning, spinning around him like a pet meeting its owner. Xia Pingan willed it, and the robotic arm on the workbench took out three brick-thick ordinary steel plates from the workshop. The little thing shot out like a bullet, directly piercing a hole in the three steel plates, but the little thing was not damaged at all. There wasn’t even a trace of wear and tear. This might not be as powerful as the most common magic tool, but it was actually enough for such a small metal puppet.

Xia Pingan nodded and reached out his hand. The little thing landed on his hand and lay flat on the table. Xia Pingan placed the black cone back on the table like an inconspicuous component.

In the next few days, Xia Pingan continued to stay in the puppet workshop, burying his head in his work. The number of inconspicuous, identical, pitch-black, cone-shaped octahedron on the workbench increased, and gradually, there were thousands of them.

On this day, Xia Pingan was writing and drawing on his work desk, designing the assembly line for mechanical puppets to produce these little things. Finally, someone rang the doorbell of his room.

“Ding dong…”

Xia Pingan stopped in his tracks and glanced at the door.” Are we here? That was fast. Alright, let’s go open the door…”

As soon as he finished speaking, the scattered conical octahedron on the table flew up with a whoosh. Each of the conical octahedron was like a spare part. Thousands of conical octahedron began to gather and form in the air like gravel. Some combined into a body, while others combined into limbs and torso. In the blink of an eye, a tall metal golem with a head, hands, and feet appeared in front of Xia Pingan. Then, the golem took nimble steps. He walked to the door of the room outside the workshop and opened it.

Outside the room, on Dragon Rearing Planet, Rearing Dragon Purple and Rearing Dragon Ruofeng were both there. The one who rang the doorbell was Rearing Dragon Purple. When the door opened, the three of them were surprised to see a mechanical puppet that they had never seen before standing in front of them. This mechanical puppet seemed different from all the other mechanical puppets they had seen before. All the parts that made up this mechanical puppet were conical octahedron slightly longer than a finger. It looked a little like something that children put together with building blocks. However, it did not look like it was made of rough materials. Moreover, this mechanical puppet had hands and feet and could actually move. If it was really made of building blocks, it would not be so flexible.

The three of them glanced at each other, their eyes seemingly saying that this strange mechanical puppet was something that “he” had created these days.

“Come in…” Xia Pingan’s voice finally came from inside.

Only then did the three of them put away their astonished gazes and walked into the room. As soon as the three of them entered, the golem’s body suddenly scattered like sand and gathered back into a black, robust panther on the ground. Then, it nimbly leaped and rushed into the puppet workshop. In the blink of an eye, it was in front of Xia Pingan, rubbing against Xia Pingan’s pants as if it was acting coquettishly.

This metal puppet could transform into different things?

Dragon Rearing Star took a deep look at the black panthers, and a hint of surprise flashed in its eyes.

Xia Pingan was still writing and drawing in front of his work desk. His back was facing the three of them and he did not turn his head around. Lights and talismans flashed on the work desk from time to time.

Dragon Rearing Star craned his neck. He really wanted to see what Xia Ping ‘an was planning, but he didn’t have the guts to walk over.

” Ahem, ahem, young master, we’ve already arrived at Heavenly Square City. Clan head and the other clan elders are welcoming young master outside…” Dragon Rearing Star said.

“Okay, I know. I didn’t expect to arrive so soon. Oh, it’s almost ready…” Xia Pingan waved his hand, and everything on the workbench disappeared, including the black panther.. Xia Pingan then turned around and said calmly, Alright, let’s go down!”
