“This…”

“Senior, are you advertising?”

“To be honest, how many stocks of Yuan Spirit Industries did you buy?”

Upon hearing this, everyone started to chuckle.

Ye Chen, however, was unfazed, “Heavenly Earth Prime Spirit, like the tides, has its rises and falls, its prosperities and declines. This is the mainstream theory and also a major viewpoint of the Tiangong Craftsmanship Institute.”

“In fact, the world’s Prime Spirit is gradually recovering. If this trend continues, in a thousand or ten thousand years, it might not return to the era of the Ancient Immortal Gods, but the emergence of Spirit Lands, Spirit Veins, and even Cave Heaven Blessed Lands should pose no problem.”

“At that time, we can definitely find a more efficient energy source than Mana Money and take the technology of Spirit-Treasure Mech Armor up a notch.”

“Of course, Mana Money has its advantages too, at least it can produce a stable output, and the Mana Money refined by high-tier cultivators also works very well as an energy source. Thus, the Wandao School won’t give up on developing Mana Money technology.”

Ye Chen tapped his teaching stick and said with a light chuckle, “Energy problem, hereby solved. Next, we only have the Divine Soul hurdle left.”

“As everyone knows, when a cultivator operates an artifact, it consumes the power of the Divine Soul.”

“The more artifacts there are and the higher their tier, the greater the consumption of the Divine Soul.”

“Thus, you can imagine the consumption of a cultivator’s Divine Soul by a Spirit-Treasure Mech Armor composed of ten million artifacts.”

“Therefore, the problem of the Divine Soul is even more tricky than that of energy since control is related to it, and external objects can hardly replace it.”

“How do we solve the problem of insufficient Divine Soul and the difficulty in control?”

Ye Chen lower his gaze and pointed at Chu Nan, “This classmate, what do you think?”

Chu Nan smiled and immediately said, “Rely on Spiritual Treasures, or Ghost Gods!”

“Correct!”

Ye Chen nodded, “No wonder, after years of research, we finally came up with two solutions.”

“The first is to rely on Spiritual Treasures!”

“Spiritual Treasures have spirits and can control countless artifacts. In coordination with a cultivator’s Divine Consciousness, they can operate mech armor.”

“After numerous experiments, as long as one Spiritual Treasure is used as the main core, combined with the Yang God of a cultivator at the Golden Core stage, it can drive a Spirit-Treasure Mecha of ten million artifacts level to fight for a long time at high intensity.”

“This is the Spirit-Treasure Mech Armor!”

Ye Chen tapped his teaching stick and said in a deep voice, “Besides the Spirit-Treasure Mech Armor, there is also the Ghost God Armor, which works pretty much on the same principle, except that the core of the mech armor is changed from a Spiritual Treasure to a Ghost God.”

“A Ghost God is an Underworld Soul, created by the Incense Fire Method. The power of a Ghost God’s Divine Soul is far stronger than that of cultivators. As long as there is a sufficient quantity of sufficiently powerful Ghost Gods as the core, they can also drive a mech armor.”

“However, due to the unique nature of Ghost Gods, the artifacts also have requirements, so overall performance is slightly inferior to that of Spirit-Treasure Mech Armor.”

Having said that, Ye Chen pointed with his teaching stick, and the image behind him changed again.

In the image, Yin Qi surged like a tide, and divine light burst forth.

Artifact after artifact, some made of white paper, some unearthed from graves, some nurtured in the Underworld, some offered in incense worship…

“These are the artifacts of the Ghost God Armor, which must lean towards the ghostly nature of a Ghost God. Therefore, they generally use Nether Artifacts. For cheaper alternatives, they use paper used for the netherworld. Although not disposable, they wear out quickly. As for the choice, it depends on the students themselves.”

“By the way, this is internal video material from the Scholar’s Palace, about to be released—the Ninth Generation Increment-Decrement Ghost God Armor. The technology has advanced quite a bit, and everyone should take a good look!”

Ye Chen stood to one side, explaining with a light smile.

Upon hearing this, everyone was immediately drawn in.

In the image, myriad nether artifacts combined to form a towering, mountainous Ghost God general, a hundred feet tall.

The Ghost God had a green face and fierce fangs. It looked lifelike, indistinguishable from being made of artifacts. Under the crown, its eyes were wide with anger, and above its forehead, vertical pupils stood erect. Its shoulders were clad in armor as if devouring like dragons, and on both arms, you could see Tai Chi Bagua. Behind its back fluttered eight Ghost God Command Flags. Around its entire body, Talismans and Array patterns—ten thousand scripted blessings—added to its majestic Ghost God authority, showing the mystery of Taoism.

Anyone who saw it would exclaim in admiration, what a mighty Increment-Decrement General!

“Ghost God Armor, the Ninth Generation!”

“Is this the latest Ghost God Armor?”

“Truly a treasure from the depths of the Yin Mountain Mansion’s vaults.”

“This is nothing. It hasn’t even started moving yet. When the Increment-Decrement General starts up, it is said to have the body of three heads and six arms!”

“That must be the Increase Life Marshal right? It’s not strange for a Ghost God to change, but can the mech armor also transform into three heads and six arms?”

“Why not? Mech armor is mysterious and obeys the wishes of the heart, never conforming to a single pattern!”

“You’ll see…”

As they watched the Increment-Decrement General in the image, everyone discussed animatedly, with Chu Nan looking particularly forward to it.

“Boom!”

Amidst the discussion, a Ghost God descended from the heavens, a three-headed, six-armed Ghost God, merging into the mech armor, becoming one with it.

“It’s the Increase Life Marshal!”

“It’s actually Him?”

“What a pity, it is just the Increase Life Marshal and not the Increase Life and Damage Fate Great Marshal.”

“If both Marshals merged into one, in their strongest state with the Ghost God Mech Armor…”

“They could probably battle evenly in the Eight Realms, couldn’t they?”

“Nascent Soul of the Seventh Realm, Divinity Transformation of the Eight Realms. Nowadays, the method for Nascent Soul is already available, but for Divinity Transformation…”

“Afraid we must to go to the Upper Realm to find it.”

Seeing this, everyone was startled and then sighed to themselves.

Ghost God Mech Armor, without the Ghost Gods, how can it be armor? To drive a Ghost God Mech Armor, you must have a Ghost God of the Seventh Realm, to command the myriad nether artifacts with its incredibly powerful Divine Thought Spiritual Sense.

Ever since the Wandao School was established, it has devoted itself to deducing cultivation methods. After a thousand years and enduring breakthroughs, a feasible method for the Seventh Realm was finally put forth. However, for cultivators to practice, the method alone is not enough; there must also be enough resources.
