Chapter 179: The Cost of One Deduction_l



“Huh!”

This result surprised Che Yucheng. He specifically inspected the Faceless Puppet, thinking there was a mistake in his deduction.

No damage at all.

He then carefully scanned the thirteen pages of data that Chen Mobai had printed from the Soulful Mirror. Finally, he identified the root of the problem.

“Hmm, your Five Elements Cultivation, while relying on external factors and fostering unstable spiritual power, has already formed a vortex of spiritual power. Furthermore, Xiao Yu has lit the flame with Flame Lighting Technique, converting it into Pure Yang spiritual power, and the step of condensing Qi into Liquid has already been advanced.”

“Moreover, the realm of your Divine Sense vastly exceeds the level of Qi Cultivation. The Soulful Mirror reflects your divine consciousness leaving the body without significant issues.”

“Among the three key steps of Foundation Establishment, the first step, Change Tendons and Wash Marrow, is the simplest. Assisted by spiritual objects such as the Mysterious Fire Spirit Liquid Giant Kun Essence Blood, it’s almost guaranteed to succeed. The Faceless Puppet assumes the most perfect condition in its deduction, confirming that if nothing unexpected occurs, you have a probability of over 50% to succeed in Foundation Establishment on your first attempt.”

This is a small flaw of the Faceless Puppet, after all, it’s just a tool.

Many people have simulated their Foundation Establishment process and succeeded, but when they attempt it in reality, they discover they can’t perform as flawlessly as the puppet.

Therefore, to increase the success rate of Foundation Establishment among all the immortal students, the Immortal Gate developed the software Foundation Treasure, and collaborated with the Daoist Academy to research the “Critical Law”.

However, due to limited resources of the Immortal Gate, currently, only a small proportion of elite students from the Four Major Daoist Academies and Ten Major Colleges have access to these resources.

Following Chen Mobai, the other two students who chose the Pure Yang Scroll also completed their deductions using the Faceless Puppet.

A boy named Yunyang Bing happened to be thirty years old but failed his Foundation Establishment.

Another boy, Ming Yuhua, seemed to possess even more astonishing talent. He could cultivate the Three Yang Bodies at the age of twenty-eight and reach Perfection in Qi Cultivation Level Nine, but he also failed in Foundation Establishment.

After observing this, Che Yucheng fell into deep thought.

Normally, Chen Mobai, who could only cultivate the Three Yang Bodies and reach Qi Cultivation Level Nine at thirty-eight years old, would essentially be advised to give up and not cultivate the Pure Yang Scroll.

But he succeeded in his first attempt at Foundation Establishment.

Furthermore, since the Red-Robed True Man was willing to exhaust a year’s effort to perform the Flame Lighting Technique to ignite his fire, it’s possible that there is potential in him that Yucheng had not seen.

If Chen Mobai isn’t discouraged, the other two students definitely won’t be.

Yunyang Bing and Ming Yuhua are the real prodigies. The former’s Fire Spirit Root reaches 48 points, while the latter’s an incredible 61 points, giving them an advantage from the start in Cultivating Pure Yang Body.

In the best-case scenario, Ming Yuhua will attain the Five Yangs and reach 100 points in his Immortal Fire Spirit Root.

However, throughout his nearly four hundred years, Che Yucheng has seen more than his share of prodigies.

He feels that if Ming Yuhua doesn’t cultivate the Pure Yang Scroll, there might be a slim chance for him to achieve Nascent Soul Formation, but if he focuses on this Divinity Transformation cultivation technique, he might only reach Core Formation.

“As for the two of you, I won’t offer much advice. After all, after establishing the foundation of Pure Yang Scroll, if you feel the breakthrough is difficult, you can always switch to other cultivation techniques like Scorching Heaven Cultivation derived from this Divinity Transformation.”

Upon hearing Che Yucheng’s words, both Yunyang Bing and Ming Yuhua clenched their fists, their faces brimming with excitement.

“As for you…”

Chen Mobai became nervous when he saw Che Yucheng turning towards him.

He had already invested so much in the Pure Yang Scroll. He didn’t want his opportunity to be shot down just because of this one deduction result with the puppet.

“Your Spirit Root is slightly mediocre. If you want to progress further in your cultivation path, indeed, you need the Pure Yang Daoist Body for transformation. Go for it.”

Che Yucheng’s gentle and encouraging words touched Chen Mobai deeply.

Indeed, enrolling in the Daoist Academy was the best decision of his life.

“Alright, next, you recognize the Faceless Puppets that deduced your situations.”

After encouraging Chen Mobai, Che Yucheng spoke to the other dozen students.

“Although this seems simple, in reality, it is as valuable as a top-tier, Rank-3 magic artifact. If you damage it, in blunt terms, a lifetime of your labor serving the academy would not suffice to compensate for it.”

“The Faceless Puppets are the pinnacle creation of Puppetry Technique fused with modern Bionics. Every time it is activated, it requires charging for half a year before it can be used again.”

“Since you’ve used up thirteen Faceless Puppets, you should take responsibility for replenishing the spiritual energy in the Puppet’s core that’s been depleted. You have no objections to that, right?”

The absence of Zhongli Tianyu resulted in one of the prepared fourteen Faceless Puppets remaining unactivated.

Che Yucheng picked up the puppet, opened a mechanism on its head, and the faceless head immediately split to the sides, revealing the puppet’s core.

Within the Puppet’s head, a dense network of thin wires were visible. Surprisingly, its power source was a spirit stone.

When Chen Mobai and the others followed Che Yucheng’s instructions to open the skull of their own Faceless Puppet, they found that the spiritual energy within the spirit stone of their Puppet had already been exhausted in the previous deduction.

“Teacher Che, we haven’t learned how to recharge the Spirit Stone?”

One of the students raised his hand with a bitter face.

“Follow me.”

The crowd immediately followed Che Yucheng, who had left the lab and arrived at the adjacent Charging Room.

As directed, they carefully placed their Faceless Puppets on specialized stands and plugged one end of a wire into a slot of these reusable Spirit Stones.

The other end of the wire was a plug socket, which was inserted into the wall’s spiritual energy outlet.

“The Faceless Puppet can only be charged for four hours a day, and will automatically disconnect when the time is up. Therefore, you need to come and reconnect it every day.”

So, refilling a Spirit Stone is actually this simple!

Chen Mobai felt like he had seen the world anew today.

“Teacher Che, how long does it take to fully charge a Spirit Stone?”

Yunyang Bing asked.

“Half a year. But the academy only requires you to complete it within a year.”

Chen Mobai felt that something was off, what kind of spirit stone requires so long.

He took a closer look and despite the spiritual energy being exhausted, he, due to his long experience with Spirit Stones, noticed something.

It was actually an intermediate-grade Spirit Stone.

In other words, one simulation with the Faceless Puppet cost about a hundred lower-grade Spirit Stones!

Upon realizing this, he couldn’t help but gasp.

Was the Dance Tool Dao Academy’s welfare for new students this generous?

“Because you are cultivating a divinity transformation technique, the academy will take it more seriously and allow you to use the Faceless Puppet in advance.”

“Typically, this is only possible before Foundation Establishment or when stuck in cultivation where you would have to apply for it and wait in line.”

“However, having used it this time, you won’t be able to apply to use it again for two years.”

Having given his instructions, Che Yucheng then left the Charging Room.

“Let’s make a group chat together.”

Ming Yuhua, who seemed to have a lively personality, added everyone as friends and invited them all to a group chat.

The name of the group was quite awe-inspiring.

[Metaphysical Class]!
