Chapter 24: Mechanical Beast

"What the hell!" Lin Jing's face turned completely black.

He thought the liquid flowing out of the spirit bamboo was Spirit Bamboo Juice, but who knew the juice would get more and more violent, forming a high-pressure torrent. Whether a Qi Condensation cultivator's Water Arrow Spell could have this power was still a question.

He struggled with both hands to control the freely spraying spirit bamboo water.

The mechanical bamboo dragon manufactured by Elder Yu would "generate fire from wood," but this "generating water from wood" was too much.

Before long, Lin Jing slid down from the wall and looked speechlessly at the Pine-Needle Rat, which was at a loss, saying: "Which immortal in the upper world did these Glazed Immortal Pupils come from? How come they are so unreliable."

Seeing that Lin Jing was fine, the Pine-Needle Rat spread its hands, indicating it didn't know.

It felt that next time there was something new, it should find Elder Black Bear to help experiment.

Experimenting by itself was too dangerous!

"You're right." Lin Jing nodded. The Demon Core stage Elder Black Bear is equivalent to a human cultivator's Golden Core stage. Trying new things, such a small matter, shouldn't be difficult for it.

Putting the blue spirit bamboo on the ground, Lin Jing rubbed the bamboo water with his fingers and smelled it in front of his nose.

"Very refreshing, no sweetness, doesn't look like Spirit Bamboo Juice. This water flow shouldn't have the medicinal effect of bamboo juice."

"But it's not an ordinary water flow either. It feels like spirit spring or spirit creek water nurtured by spiritual energy in a place rich in spiritual energy."

"If so, it doesn't have much use, but it can be used to water spirit plants, perhaps it can make the spirit rice and spirit beans we plant have higher yields and faster growth."

After he finished speaking, the Pine-Needle Rat pointed to the big hole in the wall. This, watering?

Are you sure it won't blow the spirit rice away?

"We can collect it before watering, and I roughly know its effect. It should be controllable later." Lin Jing said: "I have read about a spirit plant in a book, named Heaven Spring Tree."

"It can accumulate water vapor between heaven and earth, and then store it inside. Once full, it will spray these water sources into the sky, forming a heaven spring."

"There was once a Heaven Spring Tree in a village in the Ancient Kingdom. A child accidentally scratched the tree bark. According to the records, that village fought against floods for three years!"

"The effect of this blue spirit bamboo should be about the same. Just now, it might be because it was just born and accumulated too much water vapor during the mutation process, so it sprayed it out directly."

"So later, as long as we don't let it accumulate water vapor for too long, just pour out the spirit liquid it converts every day."

The Pine-Needle Rat looked at Lin Jing with admiration. He knows so much!

"Reading more books really has no harm." Lin Jing looked at the Pine-Needle Rat and adjusted his non-existent glasses.

He felt that cultivating immortals was really good, and he didn't get nearsighted after reading so many books.

"By the way."

Suddenly, Lin Jing thought of something and said: "I was worried about not knowing what mechanical beast to make, but now I have a clue."

"Zhi?"

"We definitely can't make overly complicated mechanical beasts in a short time."

"In order to eat in the cafeteria as soon as possible, let's make a small auxiliary mechanical beast."

"Not the kind of toy that only knows how to move, nor do we force it to have the combat power of a mechanical bamboo dragon... let's just make a mechanical turtle that can automatically find its way, spray water, and water spirit plants!" Lin Jing clapped his hands, feeling it was very promising.

"With the blue spirit bamboo that can accumulate water vapor between heaven and earth, it should save a lot of effort to make it."

A mechanical turtle?

The Pine-Needle Rat scratched its head with its long, large tail.

"Zhi?" Why a mechanical turtle, and not a mechanical frog.

One of the five basic spirit beasts of the Beast-Taming Sect is the water-type spirit beast, the Rain Frog, which can pray for rain to water spirit plants.

Compared to a turtle, it is more familiar with the Rain Frog.

"Because I am a Longevity Body." Lin Jing said.

"Turtles have always been one of the beast forms representing longevity. Don't you think a mechanical turtle is more compatible with a Longevity Body?"

He took out the mechanical art insights given by Elder Yu, as well as the Mechanical Soul Core.

The former is the key to manufacturing the mechanical turtle. He has to learn it slowly, and the latter... is temporarily not needed.

The mechanical turtle he is going to manufacture in a short time is clearly a simple "watering pot" structure, and the role of the Mechanical Soul Core is more to serve complex high-level mechanical beasts.

It is the heart of a mechanical beast.

Law starts from art, mechanism is born from the heart.

Mechanical beasts "pull one hair and move the whole body." Although magical, they also have flaws. High-level mechanical beasts are actually composed of various mechanical systems. Compared to simple mechanical beasts, they will have some "senile dementia."

In life-and-death magic battles, they are just living targets for the enemy.

And the Mechanical Soul Core, as the core of Mechanical Art, greatly solves this problem. It can serve as a connection medium between the mechanic and the mechanical beast, binding the mechanic's heart and mind, allowing the mechanic to control the action and operation of the entire mechanical beast with the power of heart and mind!

In this way, a mechanical beast attached with the mechanic's consciousness can be more flexible and responsive in battle!

After the Dragon Ascension Festival, Lin Jing's name spread among the Outer Sect and even the Inner Sect.

However, although his fame was greater, Lin Jing and the Pine-Needle Rat's cultivation life remained simple. They studied what they should study and hoarded what they should hoard. Other Outer Sect disciples rarely saw them.

And for Lin Jing, this was not boring. It wasn't that he enjoyed it, but that the twenty-plus years of his previous life had already made him develop the habit of calming his heart and enduring boredom.

Moreover, compared to the ordinary member of the vast crowd he could only become after working hard for a long time in his previous life, the return brought by cultivation, that trace of possibility of transcendence, made Lin Jing feel that it was more worth the effort and motivation.

The tree wants to be still, but the wind does not stop.

Outer Sect, Beast-Fighting Arena.

Bang!

The huge impact sound spread all around. A Fighting Ape was covered in blood, with several heavy claw marks on its chest, its eyes vacant. And beside it was the former number one of the Outer Sect, He Yiming, who was also very miserable. He looked like he had been scorched by fire, lying painfully beside the Fighting Ape.

Seeing this scene, many Outer Sect disciples off the stage covered their mouths in disbelief. In the past, when disciples sparred in the sect's beast-fighting arena, most of them stopped at the point of contact. Except for those with deep grudges, there were almost very few situations where someone was almost crippled.

"Sorry, I didn't hold back. But Elder Li was right. The sect is indeed full of flowers that are well-protected, and they are truly unbearable."

The speaker was a black-clothed youth stroking a leopard beast. Many newly entered Outer Sect disciples didn't recognize this person. Besides this black-clothed youth, there were three other youths and girls nearby with similar temperaments and cold auras.

They didn't seem to take He Yiming, the number one in beast-fighting arena points, seriously at all.

"Are these people... also disciples of our Beast-Taming Sect?"

Some Outer Sect disciples couldn't help but say.

Beside him, Senior Brother Ziran, who had rushed over upon hearing the news, looked at the legendary blood-patterned black clothes, his expression changed, and he said in a low voice: "They are disciples of the Outer Sect's Demon-Hunting Hall. This batch... actually had so many people survive." ===== CHAPTER 25 =====
