Chapter 2720: The Rhythmic Interface of the Order Cycle

~8 min read 1,428 words

However, Xia Duo had experience in creating intelligent brains, so identifying the minimal information supporting his own personality was not difficult for him; it could even be said that this was a necessary step in the process of creating an intelligent brain.

It was just that, in this way, it was not easy to accurately locate the portion of consciousness information that caused the abnormal changes in the Jade Tablet; at the very least, it was difficult to determine whether it was the part of the information belonging to his own personality or the part related to the Order Force.

"Regardless, let's first determine if it is related to the Order Force!"

Xia Duo treated the consciousness information of his own personality as a background plate, defaulting to its existence; after all, all these changes were caused by him. Perhaps he could have someone else try it, but for the time being, there was no need.

Next, he filled in the consciousness information related to the Order Force on the basis of his own personality.

Of course, this was all information from that moment in the Study when the Jade Tablet's changes were abnormal; if he had to add the dimension of time, it would be too troublesome.

With everything prepared, Xia Duo held the Jade Tablet and started a new round of experiments. It lasted for about five minutes before Xia Duo shook his head, which felt somewhat sluggish in thought, and stopped the experiment.

But before he could recover his strained spirit, he hurriedly got up to check the feedback data from the Detection Instrument.

"As expected, it is related to the Order Force!"

Looking at the temperature change curve of the Jade Tablet fed back by the temperature Detection Instrument, the upward trend had its fast and slow moments, but the descending node in the middle could not have been more obvious.

When in the Projection Plane, Xia Duo did not chat with Saint Nuodeer about the process of how the other party obtained the Identity Token; it was just obtained in a complicated way, and there was no "Refining" process that he was currently attempting.

On the last day of the three-day experiment, he almost exclusively carried out such "Refining" work.

……

The Eastern World used this kind of Identity Token, so clearly there was a corresponding method to determine the authenticity of the identity, but it was a pity that the information Saint Nuodeer could provide was truly too limited.

Next, Xia Duo needed the monitoring functions of the various Detection Instruments in the Laboratory. He first set the specific value change patterns for the parameters that needed to trigger an alarm, then returned to the experimental area and sat down in a chair.

Xia Duo rubbed his somewhat sore brow, but the smile at the corner of his mouth could not be suppressed from appearing on his face. After these few days of experiments, he had finally determined the true cause of the Jade Tablet's changes!

The activity of consciousness is no less exhausting than physical exertion; in fact, the things Xia Duo was doing now consumed no less energy than any physical activity or high-intensity Spellcasting.

Judging from the fact that the Jade Tablet could be influenced by the Order Force, it should be possible to be thoroughly "Refined"; it just depended on where the specific critical point was!

At the very least, the Jade Tablet that had been refined for a day did not show any qualitative changes; it was as if every Refining process needed to start from scratch, and once it stopped, it would return to its initial state.

But not knowing whether it was because his Order Force did not match the identity information preset in the Identity Token, or because the amount of Order Force used for "Refining" was insufficient, he always felt that this "Refining" process was too superficial.

But this Jade Tablet was special!

He tried almost every item one by one. If the Detection Instrument did not react, he would move to the next item; if there was a reaction, he would record it, and after measuring all the items that had a reaction, he would further refine the process.

In the past, just after Xia Duo had completed the Order Cycle, he had tried to use the Order Force to influence various existences in the present world; whether it was matter or energy, he could not interfere with any of it.

And those specific trial processes gave him a feeling somewhat like he was using the Order Force to "Refine" the Jade Tablet; this sense of déjà vu was truly too strong.

Now there was only one path left in front of Xia Duo: try to refine it in one go. After all, he could not dig up Saint Nuodeer to do experiments for him.

However, this was also easy to understand; how could an outsider obtain core secrets involving the stability of the system!

He constantly adjusted his thoughts, and there were many types related to the Order Force, such as thinking about the reasons for the Order Force, methods to promote the Order Cycle, and possible Applications of the Order Force, etc.

Although he still did not understand exactly how this Jade Tablet was special, at the very least he could start using it. As long as it did not cause bad effects on the Order Cycle, he could try various things.

It was the Order Force, and the individual's intention to have the Order Force come into contact with the Jade Tablet!

……

Walking out of the Laboratory, for the first time, Xia Duo had a feeling of seeing the clouds part to reveal the sun. The Main Plane was simply like a mess, full of crises everywhere. If he could open up a new path in the field of Order Force, perhaps it would be the key to breaking through many problems.

Three days later.

Of course, this was on the premise of including the influence of his own personality.

"Didn't expect that in the end, I still had to rely on brute force to create a miracle!"

In the experiment, the Order Force led by him, under his conscious driving, actually made contact with the Jade Tablet; this had never happened in past attempts targeting the Order Force!

Xia Duo speculated that perhaps when the identity matched, the "Refining" process was like the passive synchronization of a Magic Item, completely not requiring the holder to actively perform it.

The instruments detecting other parameters also showed many abnormalities. The heart that Xia Duo had just been holding in his throat finally fell back into his stomach. What followed would no longer be experiments designed for specific targets, but more of an exploration of the unknown.

He believed that once this Jade Tablet was refined, there would definitely be some phenomena that would allow him to judge that the Refining was complete at a glance without needing detection equipment!

At this moment, his heart was incomparably calm, but all of this was just the calm before the storm. As he reached his hand into the Scrying focus area and held that magical Jade Tablet in his hand, the "storm" in the world of consciousness began.

Xia Duo sighed, then put the Jade Tablet away. From now on, he would not necessarily need to use the Laboratory; the detection equipment here had already allowed him to find a possible path of Refining, and the remaining true Refining could be done anywhere.

Of course, it was also possible that when the Jade Tablet was first made, some means were set up to prevent it from being obtained and used by people other than the corresponding identity.

……

But he still persisted.

Xia Duo did not expect that this attempt, which was closer to a whim, would actually discover the possible Application of the Order Force outside of the Ascension Ritual!

The point that the identity did not match was truly unsolvable. After all, he did not know what verification technology this kind of Identity Token used, so he could only pin his hopes on the reason why the Jade Tablet did not show qualitative changes being that the Refining was not in place.

Therefore, even if it was just a temporary idea to study this Identity Token from the Eastern World, such a harvest now no longer allowed him to treat it casually, but rather he should attach importance to research in related fields and incorporate it into long-term planning.
