Chapter 591
A massive project team, personally overseen by Qin Hao, led by Qian Yin and Qin Si, with all Yanhuang personnel participating, was instantly established.
They used the largest fragment of the Mirror of Truth as a foundation and set up a temporary void laboratory.
Qin Hao shared without reservation the core creation principles and authorization for the Mirror of Truth that he had obtained from Yuanchu.
Qian Yin and Qin Si then led the team in beginning to dissect and reorganize the extremely complex underlying logic.
This process was tedious and lengthy.
Each law rune represented a cosmic axiom.
Every modification to a logic chain could trigger an unpredictable cascade reaction.
Yet not a single Yanhuang person complained.
Their eyes held only a yearning for the unknown truth.
During the analysis, they also witnessed the joys and sorrows of countless hosts chosen by the system throughout the ages.
Some hosts, with the system's help, led their civilizations to glory, only to end up as harvested fruit.
Some hosts discovered the truth midway, rose in rebellion, but were mercilessly erased by the system.
Still other hosts became addicted to the power the system gave them, turning cruel and ruthless, ultimately consumed by their own desires.
These bloody histories made every participant's conviction even firmer.
What they wanted to create was a tool truly belonging to humanity.
Not a god that commands humanity.
Time lost its meaning in their focused research.
No one knew how long had passed.
After eliminating ninety-nine percent of redundant and dangerous modules, retaining only the core functions, the first prototype was finally manufactured.
It was no longer in the form of a mirror.
But a light sphere that could merge with the soul and perfectly combine with consciousness.
"Who will be the first to test it?"
Qian Yin's gaze swept over the crowd.
"I'll do it."
A young Yanhuang warrior stepped forward.
He was one of the warriors who showed the greatest bravery in resisting the tsunami.
Under everyone's watch, he lowered his soul's defenses, allowing the light sphere to merge into his forehead.
"Hum—"
A gentle stream of information flowed into his consciousness.
Inside was only a mild guidance interface.
{Yanhuang Assistant Terminal V1.0 Activated}
{User: Yanhuang Private Chen Feng}
{Function List: }
{1. Long-range information interaction (can communicate without delay within the soul network)}
{2. Origin database query (can access all publicly available knowledge of Yanhuang civilization)}
{3. Internal cosmos status monitoring (real-time feedback on bodily and internal cosmos parameters)}
{4. Simulation and deduction space (can construct virtual battlefields or laboratories within consciousness)}
{……}
Chen Feng's face showed an expression of shock and delight.
He tried to pose a question in his mind about his own combat abilities.
The next second.
The terminal, based on his internal cosmos model and countless technique data from the database, provided over three thousand optimization schemes.
Each scheme came with a detailed pros and cons analysis and simulation results.
"This... this is too powerful!"
Chen Feng said excitedly.
"It's like an omniscient, omnipotent teacher guiding me anytime, anywhere!"
Seeing this, everyone smiled.
They succeeded.
They forged the evil dragon's remains into a sword that guards civilization.
Next came mass production.
Yanhuang civilization's productivity is terrifying.
After mastering the core technology, countless Yanhuang assistant terminals were manufactured.
Then they were distributed into the hands of every Yanhuang tribesperson.
From that day on, Yanhuang civilization entered an age of knowledge explosion.
Every tribesperson gained fair access to knowledge and the opportunity to improve themselves.
They no longer needed to grope in the dark, for all the experience and wisdom of their predecessors were stored in that terminal, available for them to consult at any time.
The civilization's overall strength began a new round of explosive growth.
And the system that had once bound the cosmic sea for countless ages also gained a new lease on life in an entirely new way.
It is no longer a lofty god, but a loyal servant.
Serving every soul that yearns for progress.
With the widespread popularity of auxiliary terminals, the social structure of Yanhuang Civilization also began to undergo subtle changes.
When every individual gained the ability to independently acquire knowledge, conduct long-distance communication, and even achieve self-sufficiency within their inner universe.
That collective survival model of gathering sand into a tower and converging into a vast universe was no longer the only option.
Some Yanhuang people began to feel weary.
They grew tired of staying day after day in the stable space constructed by the collective.
Their hearts began to yearn to look out at that broader cosmic sea.
The first to submit an application was a team that enjoyed exploring the unknown.
Their captain submitted a report to Qin Hao.
In the report, they hoped to break away from the main civilization and explore the star fields newly born after the tsunami.
This report sparked considerable discussion among the upper echelons of Yanhuang.
Some worried that leaving the collective would weaken the civilization's overall strength and expose individuals to greater risk.
But after reading the report, Qin Hao overruled the opposition and approved their application.
"Our goal is to let every person become a free dragon."
"Rather than raising them like flowers in a greenhouse."
"The cosmic sea is vast; let them go see for themselves."
"As long as the soul network remains, as long as the auxiliary terminals remain, they will never be truly alone."
Qin Hao's decision opened a brand-new era for Yanhuang Civilization.
The successful voyage of that exploration team made them the first to eat crab.
More and more Yanhuang people began to yearn for that free and easy exploratory life.
They began to apply for separation from the main civilization, using families as units and like-minded teams as units.
Then they set off for every corner of the cosmic sea.
Some families chose to experience a pastoral life of sunrise and sunset on a beautiful life planet.
Some adventure squads delved into the ruins of ancient battlefields, uncovering secrets left over from the previous era.
Some scholar teams specifically sought out the weak civilizations that had survived the tsunami, using their knowledge to help them rebuild their homes and spread Yanhuang's goodwill.
Yanhuang Civilization began to gradually "scatter," turning into countless stars spread across the entire cosmic sea.
They were like a band of nomads, no longer holding to one place, but dwelling where truth leads.
Wherever there were unknown phenomena, wherever there were novel sights, there they would be.
And the individuals of Yanhuang Civilization, in this free exploration, attained unprecedented growth.
Their inner universes were no longer uniform templates, but a hundred flowers blooming, myriad paths contending.
This is the scene Qin Hao truly wanted to see.
That day.
Qin Hao sent a message to all his children via the soul network.
The content of the message was simple.
"Come home for a meal."
Qin Wu and the others who received the message returned from every corner of the cosmic sea.
Because they knew this meal might not be so simple.
