Chapter 525: Tools of Research
After the three returned to the town to celebrate the completion of the mission, they each went back home to rest well and prepare for the second mission.
As soon as Su Hao opened the door, the big dog rushed up, wagging its tail frantically, only to be stopped by Su Hao’s foot on its forehead.
But seeing the tail wagging like a fan, the big dog still enjoyed it, at least the owner interacted with him with his foot~
Sitting on a chair, Su Hao casually took out the seven source beads and carefully rubbed and observed them.
“Source beads, the most special thing in this world, can change in countless ways and seem omnipotent. Now that I can already master its basic usage, I still don’t understand what it really is…
Whether it can be used and whether it can be understood are indeed too far apart.
The current problem is, where should I start my research on ‘source’?
Is the ‘source’ of this world derived from the uniqueness of this planet, or from the uniqueness of this universe?”
Su Hao set a research time limit for himself of one hundred years.
Once it exceeds one hundred years, the future risks will infinitely increase. If the mystery of the source is still not deciphered within this period, then there probably won’t be another chance in the future.
As he thought about it, Su Hao felt an urgent sense of determination.
If he hadn’t come, it would have been fine, but since he’s here, he must take away the knowledge of this world. Otherwise, how could he be content?
Su Hao slowly rubbed the seven source beads, his mind in a whirl, and for a moment he felt somewhat at a loss as to where to start.
He took a deep breath, calmed himself down, and organized his chaotic thoughts, analyzing them one by one: “The first question, why do I find researching the ‘source’ so difficult? The answer is that the information about the source cannot be recorded in the pinball space, and I lack the most powerful tool for researching the source.”
The source, unlike blood qi and spiritual power, cannot be completely recorded in the pinball space. While blood qi and spiritual power can be fully recorded in the pinball space, allowing for direct simulation experiments, the source cannot. As soon as blood qi rushes into the source bead, it will be instantly overwhelmed by the violent suppression force within the source bead.
Even if the source is absorbed into the body and cultivated into a source body, within the pinball space, no information about the source can be found, as if this thing does not exist at all.
He suddenly realized that he had relied too much on the pinball space along the way. If he lacked the ‘recording’ function of the pinball space, it seemed that he couldn’t accomplish anything.
Su Hao then felt fortunate: “It’s fortunate that there is a recording function, otherwise how could I have come this far? I must continue to develop more functions of the pinball space in the future.”
As for thinking about getting rid of the pinball space and relying on his own strength?
He wouldn’t be so foolish; he knew that without the pinball space, he couldn’t do anything. How could he still think about getting rid of it?
Having identified the problem, Su Hao also found the solution: lacking a tool for researching the source, then let’s make this tool for researching the source first!
This tool is ‘thought’!
The ‘spiritual power’ of origin mages, the ‘thoughts’ of cultivators, the ‘consciousness’ of martial artists, and the ‘mental tentacles’ of summoners can all be broadly classified as spiritual power, but there are significant differences among them, and their functions are also different.
The ‘spiritual power’ of source mages is more used for ‘guiding’ the transformation of the source, thus utilizing the power of the source.
It can be said that it naturally complements the source, creating the unique profession of source mages.
However, using this ‘spiritual power’ to research the ‘source’ has too many limitations. This is also why, after such a long time, the people of this world still have no reliable research results on the source.
But Su Hao’s ‘divine thought’ is different.
The combination of spiritual power waves and mental power forms ‘divine thought’, which may easily perceive various changes of the ‘source’ from a micro-level perspective, thus unraveling the mystery of the source.
“So, I need to quickly cultivate to the Divine Transformation Realm and gain the perceptual power of ‘divine thought.’”
After some thought, Su Hao immediately assigned the first task to Yashan and Feng Cheng: to quickly resume the mass production of ‘spiritual medicine’.
Soon, Yashan and Feng Cheng’s message arrived: “Received, Boss Wei.”
Yashan then added, “Boss Wei, we don’t have the raw materials needed for synthesizing spiritual pills here. We need you to spend some time cultivating a few ‘genetically modified spiritual grasses’, and then leave it to me! It’ll take at most two years to produce the pills for you.”
Su Hao replied, “That’s simple, you guys go ahead and select the corresponding carrier for the ‘genetically modified spiritual grasses’!”
After resolving the tool for researching the ‘source’, he then turned to ponder the second question: why does this world have such a special thing as the ‘source’, while it has never been seen in other worlds? Is it because of this planet, or because of this universe?
To solve this problem, it requires comprehensive research on this planet beneath his feet, as well as flying through space, landing on other planets to observe whether similar phenomena exist there.
If he successfully cultivates to the Divine Transformation Realm, it wouldn’t be difficult to shuttle through this small star system. After all, he mastered the ‘coordinate positioning teleportation technique’ and could manufacture auxiliary machines given some time.
If other planets also have similar disasters, it indicates a problem with this universe’s spatial domain. If there are no traces of the ‘source’ on other planets, it indicates a problem with this planet itself.
“So, regardless of the reason for the generation of the ‘source’, as long as I master this ‘reason’, I can completely control this thing called ‘source’.”
But that’s all talk for later! To start researching, he needs to at least wait until he cultivates to the Divine Transformation Realm. Based on the current situation, even if Yashan succeeds in mass-producing spiritual pills two years later, it will still take at least ten years to cultivate to the Divine Transformation Realm.
Su Hao silently calculated in his heart: “Ten years is acceptable.”
It’s also a good opportunity to thoroughly understand the surface of the world and collect the knowledge accumulated by the civilization of this world during these ten years.
After thoroughly straightening out his train of thought, Su Hao then entered the pinball space, sat at the desk, and began to list the next plan with pen and paper:
“First, follow the team on missions, encounter various disasters, and collect a large amount of disaster data;
In other words, the next step is to go crazy on missions and try to find the rules of disaster generation.
Second, become a powerful source mage;
The goal is to obtain a large amount of research knowledge about ‘source’ accumulated in this world. According to my understanding, this world only has simple ‘popular science education’, and the knowledge about ‘source’ is most likely controlled by the upper echelons of the world.
To obtain that knowledge, one must demonstrate sufficient strength.
Of course, if things don’t go smoothly, one can only rely on spatial abilities.
Third, find a way to join the core organization of this world;
It’s best to secure a position with certain authority and use the power of civilization as an aid to research. Of course, sharing the results might help control ubiquitous disasters.
The ideal way is to cooperate and win-win with the people of this world. We can exchange some technologies, like extending lifespan by two hundred years? This temptation should be enticing enough.
If the upper echelons of this world ignore various temptations, refuse his joining, and provide too much resistance, then he can join forces with Yashan and Feng Cheng, replace the upper echelons, and reorganize a new upper echelon.
Yashan has experience in this matter.
Fourth, cultivate to the Divine Transformation Realm and obtain the research tool ‘divine thought’;
Fifth, fly through outer space, land on other planets, and analyze the cause of ‘source’ generation;
…
Xth, decipher the mystery of the source within fifty years;
X+1th, find a way to blow up the planet;
…
Anyway, that’s the plan, with the ultimate goal aimed directly at the essence of the source.
Once the plan is set, all obstacles along the way will be crushed by Su Hao one by one.
His heart for shattering planets is unstoppable.
Su Hao thought to himself, “The source, such a miraculous thing, perhaps I can find a way to shatter planets through it.”
He exited the pinball space and opened his eyes to see the big dog squatting in front of him. Suddenly, he realized he hadn’t fed it for a long time and it must be starving.
Su Hao sent a message to Feng Cheng: “By the way, Feng Cheng, I have a big dog here. Prepare some extra dog food from now on.”
After that, he sent a photo of the big dog.
Feng Cheng replied, “Received, Boss Wei. I didn’t expect Boss Wei to like raising dogs. Planning for hotpot in the future?”
Su Hao replied, “There are so many delicacies in the mountains, don’t even think about it. This big dog is the companion of the original body, so treat it well!”
After sending the message, Su Hao got up to stretch and planned to take a shower. He instructed the big dog, “Go on, collect my clothes, and take them to the bathroom door. Once done, you’ll get some dog food.”
The big dog happily turned around and ran upstairs to collect the clothes.
