Chapter 188: Request to Be Electrocuted

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Three months is neither long nor short... I must make good use of it! Wang Baole sat cross-legged in the cave abode. After planning out the inscriptions for the Fire God Cannon in detail, a look of determination appeared on his face.

I’ll choose the Fire God Cannon then! Wang Baole took a deep breath and immediately took out the jade slip. He began to structure the inscriptions for the miniature Fire God Cannon. Even though he had a reference, it was an improvisation after all, and still posed some challenges.

Thankfully, Wang Baole had a deep understanding of the inscriptions for the Fire God Cannon. Having gone through the battle in the stronghold previously, he had made many improvisations to the Fire God Cannon, allowing him to familiarize himself with every single part within it.

The Fire God Cannon that I make cannot be too small... If not, it won’t have enough force, and would be challenging to assemble... Wang Baole scratched his head and was deep in thought as he began to adjust his plans.

I cannot overthink the Fire God Cannon either. What I need to do is to treat it as an original, and boost its inscriptions...

Time flew, and three days passed.

In those three days, Wang Baole sacrificed his sleep and meals as he endlessly structured and remodeled it. Finally, he managed to completely outline the ideal Fire God Cannon that he was about to make in his mind.

From its appearance, it looked vastly different from the Fire God Cannon. To put it more accurately, it looked more like a rocket.

Looking at the blueprint that he had drawn on the jade slip, Wang Baole was satisfied. He began to plan out the inscriptions according to his blueprint and the power he wished to bestow to it. Different creative thoughts emerged continuously, colliding and create sparks in his mind.

Several days passed, and Wang Baole, who was fully immersed in the improvisation of the Fire God Cannon, finally ended the planning for the inscriptions. He looked visibly fatigued.

Considering just the inscriptions alone, he had referenced the inscriptions on the Fire God Cannon and planned out over a million inscriptions. His level of cultivation and understanding of the Dharmic Armament didn’t allow him to put all the inscriptions he had planned onto a single Numinous Treasure.

I will need to assemble seventy-eight Numinous Treasures to complete the structure... Wang Baole rubbed his glabella and took out a bottle of Ice Spirit Water. After gulping it down and taking a short break, he got to work again.

He spent the most time on that stage. He needed to strictly follow the requirements he had set out to create seventy-eight Numinous Treasures that were different in appearance, inscriptions, and function.

Furthermore, there couldn’t be any mistakes, as everything had to match his blueprint perfectly so that the Numinous Treasures could have the perfect distribution of the million inscriptions. That way, when they were assembled, they could complement each other and function perfectly.

Everything had to be restarted should there be a failure at any point, since it was crucial to ensure that no mistakes were made. Just like that, after being immersed in the refinement process for a month, Wang Baole emerged, agitated and excited as he had finally completed every single one of the seventy-eight Numinous Treasures.

Even though Wang Baole wasn’t completely satisfied with every one of them, considering his level of knowledge, it was the best that he could do. Even the Numinous Treasures that he had made previously weren’t as demanding in terms of the amount of concentration and effort needed to produce that batch of Numinous Treasures.

In the month that passed, he was so focused on the improvised structure for the Fire God Cannon that he had forgotten all about his snacks.

The next step will be the most difficult step of assembling everything... Looking at the Numinous Treasures before him, Wang Baole took a deep breath to calm his agitation. He understood that assembling the Numinous Treasures wasn’t as simple as putting together pieces of wooden blocks. Instead, they could only be integrated under the control of spirit energy during the refinement process.

That was extremely challenging and shockingly demanding on one’s spirit energy and focus. Therefore, Wang Baole only began the assembly process after taking a day’s break.

Even though Wang Baole had predicted the level of difficulty in assembling all the Numinous Treasures, he still found it challenging and experienced many instances of failure. That was especially so on the fifth day when the prototype of the Fire God Cannon before Wang Baole suddenly exploded after a loud boom emerged.

Wang Baole managed to protect himself from the impact using the protective covering provided by a Golden Bell Bead. However, looking at the Numinous Treasures that had broken into pieces, Wang Baole was on the brink of tears as he dejectedly pulled his hair hard.

My cultivation is insufficient!

A look of stubbornness was apparent from Wang Baole’s eyes. After experiencing those failures, he had realized that the assembly of Numinous Treasures required precise control of spirit energy in many aspects. Therefore, as soon as his spirit energy was unable to keep up with the pace of refinement, degradation and retardation would result, causing the assembly process to fail.

Even though Wang Baole surpassed other second level True Breath disciples, he was still unable to complete the assembly in one go. His thoughts darted around as he paced the cave abode, before suddenly stopping in his tracks.

I can only succeed in assembling the Numinous Treasure if I become a third level True Breath! With that thought, Wang Baole gritted his teeth as he planned to purchase more pills. He suddenly lowered his head to look at his stomach, and a bewildered look appeared in his eyes as he stroked it with his hands.

The effectiveness of those pills is probably nothing compared to the crystal in my stomach... Every time my cultivation is activated, some part of the crystal would be absorbed. However, it is still too slow. If the rate of absorption can be increased, I will definitely be able to achieve a breakthrough in my cultivation! Slapping his stomach, Wang Baole immediately sat down with his legs crossed and took out the Numinous Treasure that had the effect of deceiving one’s mind, which was given to him by Chen Yutong.

Without hesitation, Wang Baole immediately put the Numinous Treasure on his head and began to give out orders.

“I am heavily injured, and I need nutrients...” As Wang Baole completed his sentence, the helmet-like Numinous Treasure vibrated. A current appeared to reach into his head, but that was it. There wasn’t any further reaction.

Wang Baole waited for a short while and was beginning to feel troubled. He tried different commands, including that of hunger and running, and realized that everything had failed. He then stared with his eyes wide, as he felt like he needed to give out a more substantial command.

“I am pregnant again!” The moment he said it, the current from the Numinous Treasure seemed to grow in magnitude. However, even before Wang Baole could feel delighted, the current lost its effects after it entered his head.

That made Wang Baole dumbfounded.

Could it be that I have deceived my mind too many times, such that it has developed resistance and no longer believes me? Thinking of that possibility, Wang Baole exhaled deeply, shocked at his guess. While incredulous at the thought, he was also inevitably embarrassed. After all, the fact that his own mind didn’t believe him seemed bizarre.

This won’t do... Wang Baole was frustrated. He opened up the Spirit Intranet to look at the pills on sale. However, after browsing for a long time, he still hadn’t found one that not only had no side effects but could also allow him to achieve a breakthrough in a short period of time.

A majority of the pills were milder ones that required long term consumption to increase one’s level of cultivation. The pills that Wang Baole needed existed, but were something that would only come about with luck, and couldn’t be forcefully attained.

Considering that it was less than two months to the major Armament Soldier assessment, Wang Baole grew anxious. He even contacted Bunny and Du Min, but Bunny didn’t reply as she seemed to still be in seclusion. Du Min replied but immediately told Wang Baole that she didn’t have any of the pills he needed.

Just as Wang Baole considered asking Chen Yutong about it, he suddenly remembered that when he was in the stronghold plucking the teeth of the beasts, he was electrocuted once, and that caused the crystal to break apart slightly.

With that thought, Wang Baole’s eyes suddenly lit up. He immediately retrieved his Hallucination Pillow and entered the Hallucination realm. He searched for Little Missy and expressed his wish to be electrocuted...

Little Missy was confused and incredulous at the request but still electrocuted him...

However, despite being shocked several times and screaming in pain each time, Wang Baole soon realized dejectedly that everything was futile.

This isn’t right... Could it be that the electrocution in the Hallucination realm is ineffective and that only those that happened in real life work? Wang Baole was upset and frustrated. He felt that carrying on that path would lead to his failure and death. However, when he thought about the Armament Soldier assessment and the position of being the person in charge of the College Administrative Department, he decided to give it a try by finding an electrical cable on Lower Academy Island.

However, just at that time, Little Missy from the mask gave Wang Baole a suggestion.

“Perhaps you can try to use this imaginary force of lightning... This type of lightning encompasses some laws that make it even more unique than the electricity that you can create!”

Lightning? Wang Baole was momentarily frozen in thought. After leaving the Hallucination realm, he thought for a moment, and recalled that the Chancellor of the Lower Academy Island had previously said that there was a Lightning Domain mystic realm that was accessible to all disciples of the Upper Academy Island!

Even though Wang Baole had never been to the Lightning Domain mystic realm since becoming a disciple on the Upper Academy Island, he had read other people’s discussions about it on the Spirit Intranet. He knew that the so-called mystic realm was actually a perfectly preserved piece of fragment from the ancient greenish-bronze sword.

The fragment was buried and encompassed a bolt of lightning inherited from the ancient greenish-bronze sword. The inheritance was split into five parts, each representing the five different spells and mystic techniques.

These five spells are Flash Arc, Electromagnetic Pulse, Instant Sword, Explosive Dragon, and... Hell Sea! Wang Baole narrowed his eyes and mumbled inwardly. He knew that if one could master all five spells and integrate them, they would attain the complete inheritance.

That form of complete inheritance was remarkably similar to the extremely terrible climate within the Federation. It was called... Electromagnetism Burst!

After analyzing everything in his mind, a look of determination flashed across Wang Baole’s eyes. He knew that he had no time to lose, as he had to break through the second level of the True Breath stage as soon as possible and advance into the third level.

That way, he could successfully assemble the seventy-eight Numinous Treasures to create his improvised Fire God Cannon for the Armament Soldier assessment!

I probably won’t die from this! Erasing any traces of hesitation, Wang Baole decisively left the cave abode. He took out his water droplet cruiser and charged out of the Dharmic Armament Pavilion towards the Array Runes Pavilion.

The droplet cruiser traveled at breathtaking speed. Before long, Wang Baole had reached the Array Runes Pavilion, heading straight towards the Lightning Domain mystic realm.

The Lightning Domain mystic realm was located in a small hill on the Array Runes Pavilion. There were seven to eight humongous pieces of green stones erected there, and a circular spell array lay in its center.

As that place was open to everyone, no one stood guard. After registering, anyone could enter to look for an opportunity, and could also make use of the force of the array formation for protection. As soon as a disciple met with danger inside it, they could be instantly sent back.

It was already dusk when Wang Baole arrived. Even though there were still some people in the Lightning Domain mystic realm, it was few and far between. Without further ado, Wang Baole registered himself when he arrived and stepped directly into the array formation. His vision blurred immediately, and when it cleared up, he had appeared in another realm.

It was pure darkness in that place. There was a tall pagoda erected on the ground that seemed to be made of gold. Like the tip of a sword, there were over a thousand of such pagodas on the ground when one looked from afar. There were also pulses of roaring thunder erupting in the sky. When one raised his head, he could also see that in the layers of clouds in the dark, lightning flashed irregularly and crazily, one after another.

Sometimes, the lightning landed and struck the tall pagodas on the ground, causing them to vibrate. Looking from afar, the lightning flashes that landed were like a lightning dragon, extremely frightening as it seemed like Heavenly Tribulation.
