Chapter 610: Consciousness Descends, Nano True Qi Creates a Spirit Body

Yuan Chaoguang looked in horror at his virtual life-support pod, where countless silver threads, under the attraction of the electromagnetic micro-current machines on both sides, were rapidly weaving into the shape of a human body in the empty pod.

The silver threads outlined a human shape like blood vessels and meridians.

The main line plugged into the back of his head heated up slightly, and a numbness like an electric shock came from the brain-computer interface.

Soon, he felt something pass into the life-support pod, using his consciousness as a bridge.

Yan Shu and the others watched as a spiritual light like a spirit pearl fell from the interface behind Yuan Chaoguang's head, following the silver main line into the silver metal-woven human shape below.

The light cluster like a spirit pearl fell to the position of the heart along the silver threads that looked like meridians and blood vessels.

The micro-nano robots responsible for repairing the body and maintaining hormone balance and the burden of the user's internal organs in the life-support pod—this was also a function only available in the "Kunlun" Second Anniversary Commemorative Collector's Edition virtual pod.

That small tube of nano-robots, under the detection of the life-support pod, could provide micro-stimulation to muscle tissue, and could even decompose fat into energy for self-replication and synthesis. It could regulate human synthetic hormones, allowing Yuan Chaoguang to lie in the life-support pod while his body simulated the movement of his virtual image in Kunlun!

These nano-robots would even imitate the true qi in the game when Yuan Chaoguang was meditating and practicing in the game, strengthening and dimensioning his body.

It was a major achievement of Fantasy International, imitating the "Kunlun" Immortal Dao civilization and using technological means to simulate it, known as Nano True Qi!

In order to give back to the players, Fantasy International launched the collector's edition life-support pod containing a tube of nano-robots on the second anniversary, intending for the whole population to enter the immortal cultivation era. But because the Federation split thirty years ago, most control zones entered a cybernetic society, leading to large-scale human degradation, addiction to the virtual world, electronic opium, and at the same time, promiscuity, the pursuit of excitement, and the flooding of low-level death-seeking culture, entering the pan-entertainment era.

Except for the three core zones of North America, East Asia, and Western Europe, low-quality populations in other regions multiplied significantly, government governance methods failed, capital became centralized, and various social problems flooded.

Finally, thirty years ago, it triggered large-scale anti-riot activities in other regions!

The Federal government split as a result. Seeing that the North American core zone was severely impacted by the South American population and had completely fallen, the other two core zones opened up the Asia-Europe land bridge and announced the establishment of the Central Zone for closed management. From then on, the heavens and earth were cut off, leaving the split zones to govern themselves!

Since then, government forces retreated to the Central Zone to develop technology, intending for the whole population to ascend, while the abandoned regions were controlled by major conglomerate capital.

Fantasy International's idea of promoting universal immortal cultivation and global ascension was shattered. Even though simulated immortal cultivation technology had developed to the stage of nano magic power, no more such collector's edition life-support pods had been produced!

Therefore, in the eyes of those in the know, this version of the life-support pod was very precious, especially outside the Central Zone, where it was simply worth more than gold...

Yuan Chaoguang's pod was given to him by his uncle when he was sent to work in the Southeast Asian Autonomous Region, as a special compensation from Fantasy International to its employees who had lost a series of headquarters benefits after entering outside the core zone. He gave it to his nephew!

Yuan Chaoguang himself didn't know many of these inside stories.

The reason Qian Chen chose him as a coordinate was because Yuan Chaoguang was a very rare player outside the Central Zone who possessed Nano True Qi.

Now, those "Heavenly Demon Secret Talismans" on Yuan Chaoguang's skin were the Nano True Qi in his body sensing the means Qian Chen had used on Yuan Chaoguang's consciousness in Kunlun, forming a coordinate to guide Qian Chen's consciousness. This coordinate was just a primer; the equipment truly responsible for receiving the descent of Qian Chen's consciousness was the Hundred-Poison Immortal-Slaying Sword that had smuggled itself into the present world earlier!

After the Hundred-Poison Immortal-Slaying Sword descended into the present world, it constantly emitted virtual network viruses, infecting all surrounding intelligent devices, and then through these intelligent devices, created all the material conditions for receiving the descent of Qian Chen's consciousness.

Hundred poisons infect, receiving the Heavenly Demon's descent!

Therefore, when the core program of the Hundred-Poison Immortal-Slaying Sword touched the coordinate recorded in the Heavenly Demon Secret Talisman, it was the final step to receive Qian Chen's descent, just like the Wutai Sect refining the Heavenly Demon Immortal-Slaying Sword, carving the Heavenly Demon Secret Talisman on the sword embryo to receive the Heavenly Demon's descent!

The silver nano-robots flowed out from the life-support pod, forming a liquid like mercury, spreading along the silver metal wires!

Soon, the human shape in the virtual life-support pod had silver liquid flowing through its blood vessels and meridians. Under the convergence of massive electricity, these liquids crazily decomposed all electronic equipment and self-proliferated.

The life-support pod was like a coffin, and the transparent pod body on both sides allowed people to clearly see those Nano True Qi gradually forming the body of a young man.

Even a portion of the excess Nano True Qi directly wove into silver cloth-like fabric, turning into a Daoist robe.

From the scalp of that body, strands like crystal grew out, turning into a pure white color, automatically weaving into a bun.

Soon, the Daoist-robed youth with white hair, looking about sixteen or seventeen years old, opened his eyes in the life-support pod!

His body surface emitted a glowing spiritual light, his features were handsome, and his appearance was surprisingly similar to Daoist Yu Chen and Heavenly Demon Qian Chen; it was exactly Qian Chen's appearance in the Earth Immortal Realm. The life-support pod slowly lifted, and Qian Chen, with bare feet, floated in the pod and slowly drifted out!

Yuan Chaoguang on the side was already stunned!

"Damn it! My life-support pod suddenly produced a 'person' by itself?"

Thinking of the memories he had previously considered symptoms of virtual reality confusion, Yuan Chaoguang suddenly shivered: "Or is it... an NPC from Kunlun has crossed over? Then who are these people..."

He turned his head to look at Yan Shu, who was showing curiosity and looked like he really wanted to go up and touch him, a typical country bumpkin performance.

"Don't tell me they also crossed over from Kunlun! This game 'Kunlun' really has big problems..."

Qian Chen slowly landed, looked around, and looked at the large posters hanging in this game room, as well as the life-size figures, mecha models, and paper-wife characters around... he actually felt a bit of nostalgia and familiarity.

He casually used the electromagnetic force converted by Nano True Qi to take a can of "Fatty Happy Water" (cola).

Qian Chen ignored his mysterious image just after descending, and in front of the three Yan Shixiong Brothers and Junior Sisters and two local natives, he began to gulp it down!

Outside the window, inside the room, countless holographic projections cast their light, making that ancient sword appear increasingly real, allowing Yuan Chaoguang to clearly see even the naturally formed quenching patterns on the blade.

Yan Shu wasn't very surprised to see Qian Chen's body manifest in the life-support pod; it was just a means of Primordial Spirit incarnation!

What he really wanted to ask was: "What exactly is the situation in this realm, why is the spiritual energy so scarce? After we descended, our magic power was completely lost, and we can only rely on mortal martial arts to walk."

"The situation in this realm is quite complicated!"

Qian Chen smiled: "It was separated into two worlds by the Daoist Lord's means, one virtual and one real! The virtual one gathers spiritual energy and is a realm floating in mirror light, while the real one has lost all spiritual energy, its primordial energy is condensed and stable, completely dead and turned into matter. All supernatural powers and spells must follow the laws of this realm. We were cast into this, and Yan Yan Shixiong and the two Junior Sisters of course fell into the real realm, while I and that pursuer fell into the virtual realm."

"This should be the means of the Lord of Reincarnation, making it difficult for us to join forces for a while!"

"These can be discussed in detail later. Now, in that mirror-light virtual realm, in order to resist that pursuing Primordial Spirit True Person, I had to use that supreme treasure..."

Yan Shu looked serious and asked back: "Dao Dust Pearl?"

Qian Chen nodded slightly. Previously, Qian Chen had reported his own Daoist lineage, and with the entanglement of Miaokong behind him, the several Yan Shixiong Brothers and Junior Sisters should have already guessed most of it.

Qian Chen had no intention of continuing to hide it, so he said frankly: "Years ago, a Samsara traveler used the Land of Samsara to reverse the flow of time and space, wishing to seize the Louguan Sect's sect-protecting treasure—the Dao Dust Pearl!"

"Unfortunately, after the Louguan Sect suffered a disaster, the Primordial Spirits of the Supreme Dao pursued them closely. With no other choice, they had to hide the supreme treasure within my body and sent me into the Land of Reincarnation, intending to hide this treasure and plot to seize it later. Who would have thought that I would merge with the spirit pearl, inherit the Louguan Daoist lineage, and get to know several Yan Shixiong Brothers and Junior Sisters in the Land of Reincarnation? By joining forces, we actually killed the mastermind Miaokong!"

"Now, this pursuer should also be sent by the existence behind Miaokong."

"And within the Dao Dust Pearl, a demonic nature was sealed by the Supreme Dao Ancestor, which is the Supreme Heavenly Demon that Yan Yan Shixiong saw in the past. This time in the virtual realm, facing the pursuit of the Primordial Spirit, I had no choice but to release the demonic nature in the pearl. Now it has occupied the virtual realm, manifested, and can demonize all living beings with a single thought. I am just about to break through the blockade of the virtual realm and completely demonize this realm!"

Ten-Year-Old-Riding-a-Green-Ox, who was listening clearly on the side, shivered, and thoughts kept popping up in his mind: "Aliens? Visitors from beyond the heavens? Reincarnators? Lord God Space? So the new main plot of Kunlun has such an inside story!"

"He's lying... The one pursuing him should be True Immortal Jun Nuo? That True Immortal Jun Nuo didn't find him at all; instead, he has been hiding by my side, releasing demonic nature. It's absolutely intentional!"

"... Everyone, don't believe this person!"

Yan Shu's face turned black as he listened: "Qian Shidi, you... you really are a little genius!"

"How can a mere Primordial Spirit demon compare to the demonic nature personally sealed by the Supreme Dao Ancestor? Aren't you pulling down the sun from the sky just to crush an ant?"

"At worst, we can hide this time, and I will go and ask the Primordial Spirit in the sect to take action. Ning Ning Shimei Si also has Tao Tianshi behind her who can help in the Land of Reincarnation. We can set up a trap and lure them here!"

"Yan Yan Shixiong, you can hide for a while, but not for a lifetime!"

Qian Chen smiled: "This realm is divided into two by the mirror, and there are supreme treasures similar to the Dao Dust Pearl that can limit and seal that demonic nature. If we don't take this opportunity to trigger the demonic nature and test it out, when I strike at the Primordial Spirit, if the demonic nature in the Dao Dust Pearl backlashes and descends using my body, then the Earth Immortal Realm will face a true eternal demonic disaster, and everything will be irreversible!"

Yan Shu frowned slightly upon hearing this, and after a while, his brows relaxed: "That's true! This disaster was set from the moment you merged with the Dao Dust Pearl, and it cannot be avoided. Facing the disaster and breaking it with strength is not necessarily a bad way. It's just that the living beings of this realm have been implicated too much by you, and we must take responsibility!"

Qian Chen nodded: "The spiritual treasure in the present world that can help me seal the demonic nature should be at the headquarters of this company!"

He pointed to the Fantasy International logo on the life-support pod. As long as he went there and found that innate spiritual treasure, he should be able to seal the Supreme Heavenly Demon.

As for the consciousness of hundreds of millions of players in Kunlun, although it had been chaotic for a while, Qian Chen had studied the laws of Kunlun. These "player" consciousnesses were just projected into Kunlun, and their souls were preserved in a powerful magic treasure. As long as he used the soul memory backup in the magic treasure to reorganize their consciousness, there wouldn't be any major problems!

Qian Chen looked up at Yan Shu and the others who had lost their magic power, and suddenly reached out and beckoned. In the night sky outside the window that was already pitch black, a rainbow light suddenly crossed the entire sky.

That sword light, wrapped in magnetic fluid and composed of countless tiny electromagnetic coils, was the real-world carrier of a seventh-rank flying sword inside the Arasaka Group headquarters, prepared for a seventh-rank collector's edition flying sword seized by the young master of the Arasaka Group in Kunlun.

Now, it had been invaded by Qian Chen at the virtual network level. In an instant, he moved his mind to seize it, merged it with a spiritual light of a magic treasure, and achieved an electromagnetic flying sword!

Qian Chen used the Nano True Qi in his body to construct an inductive brain-computer interface. He saw silver liquid flowing and surging between his fingers, gradually constructing a silver metal chimera, like a vertical eye.

That inductive brain-computer interface floated from Qian Chen's hand toward Yan Shu. He heard him say: "This is a magic treasure of this realm that can sense the soul. Yan Yan Shixiong, if you place it between your eyebrows or behind your head, you can drive objects with your soul and display spiritual sense!"

Yan Shu took the object and frowned: "Could it be the brain-computer interface mentioned by the people of this realm? I also wanted to have this surgery, but in this realm, I am after all just a mortal flesh body, and I don't have anyone I trust. At that time, I felt that since Qian Shidi was here, there must be other means..."

After saying that, he pressed this silver vertical eye between his eyebrows!

This eye-shaped ornament touched Yan Shu's skin and turned into a liquid like mercury, squeezing under Yan Shu's skin. Strands of silk touched the nerve synapses of Yan Shu's pineal gland, establishing a stable connection.

Accompanied by a numbness like an electric shock, Yan Shu's nerves were completely connected to this object.

It was as if a window had suddenly been opened in this sealed body. Yan Shu's soul probed out through this window and arrived at a virtual world that overlapped with this realm and was built on information and spirit.

Yan Shu's soul was at the Yin Spirit level, stronger than any of the three-tribulation cultivators in this world, because the three-tribulation cultivators were only cultivated in a world without spiritual energy. Although their thinking speed reached the level of a Yin Spirit Venerable, compared to a Daoist true transmission like Yan Shu who had Daoist lineage inheritance and superior supernatural powers, they were ultimately much worse.

In just an instant, Yan Shu processed a massive stream of virtual network information.

"Hahahaha... finally escaped this cage!"

He reached out and beckoned, and that seventh-rank sword light turned into a long rainbow, wrapping around his fragile physical body and rushing into the sky.

Yan Shu's physical body, wrapped in magnetic fluid, instantly broke the sound barrier, reaching dozens of times the speed of sound, sweeping over Singapore.

Sweeping over the city at such a high speed, it didn't even stir up a trace of sonic boom. The fragile human body inside the fluid was also unharmed within the wrapping of the sword light.

This kind of control ability almost pushed every dust-like electromagnetic coil to the limit, controlled to the micro-level. ===== CHAPTER 611 =====
