Chapter 310: Two
When Wang Yu successfully passed the red light detection, the mechanical and wooden voice of "Taiyuan" sounded in the hall:
"... Blue Star Huaguo citizen Ding Yu, Blue Star Alliance special reserve, member of the interstellar tactical mecha squad, number GLX, special authorization level none, possesses temporary deduction permission, count 1..."
He had actually used up one temporary deduction permission!
At the same time, a golden mechanical funnel appeared on the giant screen. After a flip, dense cultivation formulas appeared on it, which were precisely the cultivation methods for the Fire Spirit Technique after the twelfth-layer Great Perfection.
Wang Yu's temporary deduction permission had deduced the Qi Refinement cultivation technique after the twelfth layer.
Wang Yu's finger slid lightly across the virtual keyboard beside him.
The text on the screen flashed by rapidly, reaching the last page, and his gaze swept over the formulas he had long memorized by heart, falling at the end of the last page.
There, two lines of text were specially marked in bold golden font.
(Deduction of the fifteenth-layer Fire Spirit Technique formula completed, deviation within 6.3 percent. Existing data does not support further deduction, reached the limit of deduction.)
(Special statement: The copyright after deduction belongs to Taiyuan. No one is allowed to cultivate it privately without authorization, otherwise, they will be pursued for all legal responsibilities by the Blue Star Alliance.)
The first line of text, although he did not know the evaluation standard for this deviation, he probably understood what it meant.
But the second line of text, this Taiyuan subsystem actually created a copyright for him, and he might even be pursued for legal responsibilities by the Blue Star Alliance! 【310-13
This left Wang Yu somewhat bewildered!
He had heard of this "Blue Star Alliance" for the first time when the Taiyuan System activated the Blade-Drawing Art, which claimed to have been found in a grand armory of the Blue Star Alliance.
The second time he heard of it was in the virtual game "Star River," where the Star Thought Power he was authorized to learn also came from this "Blue Star Alliance," which also stated that those selected like them would have to perform some kind of military service in ten years.
But what exactly is this Blue Star Alliance?
Judging by the name, it seems to be an international organization composed of the governments of various countries on Blue Star, yet he had never heard of it in China before, and now everything indicated that this organization did not seem to be fictional.
Thinking of this, Wang Yu could not help but glance at one of his wrists and subconsciously activated his Star Thought Power.
As the white light converged, a translucent wristwatch full of sci-fi aesthetics appeared there, with a string of obvious countdown numbers on it.
Wang Yu's gaze fixed; the time on the watch showed there was still more than eight years left.
The time ratio between this immortal otherworld and Blue Star seems to be about ten to one, without a doubt.
That is to say, he would likely be in this world for more than eighty years before the military service period for the Blue Star Alliance in the Blue Star world begins.
But what this military service is all about was kept mysterious in the game, and later, in exchanges with other ability users at the base, he did not get any definite news.
However, that Dr. Chen, who had a special status at the base, seemed to know something.
Wang Yu pressed one hand to his temple, thinking thoughtfully, while his other hand swiped across the virtual panel. The text on the giant screen all disappeared, and he left the metal chair, walked to the center of the hall, and tapped his foot on the silver metal floor beneath him.
"Boom—"
Crystal light flashed all around, and an alchemy room, exactly the same as his real-world cave dwelling, condensed bit by bit with Wang Yu at the center.
Whether it was the alchemy furnace in the room or the densely packed boxes and bottles of various sizes on the surrounding shelves, everything was exactly the same.
This Three-Crow Alchemy Furnace was an entry-rank artifact that Wang Yu had personally crafted, which is why it could also be condensed in this space.
Wang Yu walked to the side of the alchemy furnace and slapped it directly; the lid immediately soared into the air and hovered in mid-air.
Then, with great proficiency, he beckoned with one hand toward a shelf nearby, and one box lid after another opened, from which various medicinal materials that had long been allocated flew out.
Some were small sections of a certain spirit herb, others were the greater part of a spirit fruit, and still others were spirit medicines that had long been dried and ground into piles of medicinal powder of different colors.
These medicinal materials fell steadily into the alchemy furnace, portion by portion, according to a certain order and ratio.
"Fire, rise!"
Wang Yu gave a low shout.
A crimson spirit formation suddenly appeared beneath the alchemy furnace, and the crow relief on its surface flashed with red light. One after another, fire crows emerged from it, circled and danced around the furnace for a while, and then, amidst "caw-caw" sounds, plunged into the formation below.
With a "puff" sound, a pillar of crimson fire erupted from the formation, transforming into a large sheet of flames that wrapped the alchemy furnace in rolling heat.
Wang Yu beckoned with one hand, and the furnace lid fell steadily, sealing the alchemy furnace airtight once again.
Following this, he sat cross-legged, his ten fingers forming seals, occasionally casting spells toward the alchemy furnace. At the same time, a Nine-Spirit Formation diagram emerged in his sea of consciousness; all his movements were fluid, as if he had practiced them thousands of times.
Not bad!
The reason he could possess his current alchemy skills was that he had refined countless pills in this Taiyuan Login Interface.
All of this started with that one Grain-Abstinence Pill he had personally refined back then.
Because only pills personally refined could have the pills and the spirit herb materials required for refining them replicated in this Taiyuan Login Hall, and with an endless supply of alchemy materials, naturally, just like artifact refining, he could practice alchemy to his heart's content in the login hall.
Although he could only refine Grain-Abstinence Pills at first, as his alchemy experience accumulated rapidly, he was soon able to refine other entry-rank pills in the real world.
Being able to refine a wider variety of pills in the login hall naturally improved his alchemy skills even faster.
Under these circumstances where he didn't have to consider the cost of medicinal materials or the scarcity of main ingredients, his alchemy experience skyrocketed over these ten years. Apart from his own mana, his alchemy skills were already no less than those of Fan Tian, a second-rank alchemist.
This was also the reason why, when he displayed his alchemy skills slightly back then, the beautiful Lady Shopkeeper Huo handed over several incomplete Essence-Increasing Pill recipes without hesitation and set up a long-term pill recycling arrangement.
Wang Yu pondered this, his mind gradually calming down, and he devoted his whole heart to the alchemy furnace before him. The hand seals changed and adjusted continuously, like spinning wheels.
An hour later, the lid of the alchemy furnace, which had turned completely crimson, suddenly opened with a "bang."
Several pills shot out from the alchemy furnace amidst the thick medicinal fragrance, darting in all directions.
Wang Yu, who had been prepared, merely flicked his sleeve, and a red light glowed out, flashing across the surrounding void with lightning speed before rolling all the pills back.
After he opened his five fingers again, there were five translucent Startle-Fear Pills in his hand!
Among them, four were low-grade pills with only one pill-pattern, and one was a mid-grade pill with two pill-patterns.
Wang Yu threw away the other four low-grade pills directly, only pinching the mid-grade Startle-Fear Pill with his fingers to examine it closely before his eyes, and he couldn't help but reveal a satisfied expression on his face.
Although this Startle-Fear Pill was an ancient recipe, both its refining difficulty and medicinal efficacy were among the most extreme of the recipes Wang Yu currently mastered.
It was most suitable for improving his now-accomplished alchemy skills. Over the past few years, he had even refined top-grade Startle-Fear Pills in the login hall more than once.
This was also the reason why he could casually replicate top-grade Startle-Fear Pills after entering the login hall earlier.
Wang Yu flicked his wrist, and the pill in his hand disappeared into points of crystal light, then he tapped his toe on the ground again.
A huge rumbling sound echoed once more!
The entire alchemy room collapsed and disintegrated into points of crystal light, and other thick stone walls rose from the ground, condensing into a quiet room for cultivation.
The quiet room was empty, with nothing in it except for a meditation cushion in the center.
Wang Yu walked over in a few steps, sat cross-legged on the cushion, closed his eyes, and began to refine the top-grade Startle-Fear Pill he had just taken.
Back then, one mid-grade Startle-Fear Pill could increase his cultivation by eight years.
The top-grade one naturally had even more astonishing medicinal efficacy; after one was fully refined, it could increase his cultivation by nearly thirteen years.
The reason he knew this so clearly was, naturally, that this was not his first time taking this top-grade pill.
This was also the second important use of the Taiyuan Login Hall that Wang Yu had discovered over these ten years, and the reason he would use his second temporary deduction right to have Taiyuan deduce the oral formula for after the Qi Refinement Great Perfection.
Because the pills taken in this login hall still possessed the exact same effects as in the real world.
That is to say, if a detoxifying pill was taken in this login hall, the poisoned body in the login hall could still be detoxified; if a pill to increase cultivation was taken in the login hall, the body in the login hall could indeed increase its cultivation.
When Wang Yu returned from the login hall to the real world, his real-world body did not carry these pill effects; the various pills taken in the login hall previously seemed like a dream, leaving no trace of medicinal efficacy on his real physical body.
But when Wang Yu returned to the login interface hall again, the interface hall seemed to have stored his physical condition from the last time he was in the hall, and it would still retain the effects of the previous pills.
In a word, he now had two bodies with different cultivation levels.
The "Wang Yu" in the login interface hall, after taking an unlimited amount of various rare cultivation-increasing pills, easily attained the cultivation of the fifteenth level of Qi Refinement.
The "Wang Yu" in the real world, however, could only barely cultivate to the twelfth level of Qi Refinement Great Perfection due to the lack of cultivation-increasing pills.
After all, even though he had collected many rare pill recipes, the main ingredients involved were too scarce, and whether he could collect them was still a matter of luck.
