Chapter 128 The Prototype of the Spatial Core Array
The cuboid, imbued with spatial power, twisted and broke all the ice cones growing along its path.
A look of joy flashed in Ye Nanxiao's eyes. He had finally encountered someone with a spatial martial soul. He clasped his hands together, and ice prisons rose from the ground, changing the terrain of the entire area.
The field transformed into a frost-covered jungle, with ice prisons of all sizes completely dominating the area.
However, Shang Yunshu's rectangular spatial soul skill twisted and moved away the ice prisons blocking the way, forcibly clearing a path.
Shang Yunshu held the spatial scepter to her chest. A layer of silver light emanating from the scepter protected the little girl and blocked all the incoming ice bullets.
"The ability to distort and transfer should only be able to break soul skills weaker than oneself." Ye Nanxiao instantly made a judgment, and the fifth soul ring that rose behind him shone brightly.
A large cloud of ice mist was unleashed, enveloping the spatial cuboid created by Shang Yunshu.
The icy mist, which was powerful enough to shatter a level-five soul-guided protective shield, landed on the cuboid, but only slightly slowed its forward movement and failed to freeze it.
"It is not an object, it has no physical form." A giant frost hand condensed out of thin air in front of Ye Nanxiao, but like the previous ice prison, it was forcibly moved out of its current position.
Seeing Ye Nanxiao's soul skills repeatedly thwarted, the group that had been tormented by Ye Nanxiao earlier started shouting.
Some of the trainees in the audience were also swayed and started shouting along.
"You stinky fox! You can't stop my spatial distortion. Just stay trapped and wait to surrender!" Shang Yunshu stepped through the air, each step causing a slight spatial ripple. She walked step by step into the air and looked down at Ye Nanxiao.
After the giant frost hand was easily distorted by "space distortion", Ye Nanxiao had a bold idea.
This cuboid has locked itself in, and it seems it won't stop until it grabs its target. If it can't grab the obstacle, then it might as well experience it for itself.
With a thought, light surged behind Ye Nanxiao.
Xiao Ye No. 1 walked out with a helpless expression, staring with dead fish eyes, and complained, "Can't you come up with any solutions that are actually from Fox?"
Ye Nanxiao patted Xiao Ye No. 1 on the shoulder, attached his spiritual power to Xiao Ye No. 1, pointed to the slowly moving spatial distortion cuboid, and said excitedly, "Go, Xiao Ye."
Xiao Ye No. 1 sighed, stared with dead fish eyes, stomped the ground hard, and shot into the spatial distortion like an arrow released from a bow, causing a visible spatial ripple.
As Xiao Ye No. 1 rushed into the spatial distortion, it quickly crashed into an invisible spatial wall. Looking around, the space around it was slightly distorted, and the scenery outside was also distorted, obscuring its vision.
Upon seeing this, Shang Yunshu activated her second soul ring, her face turned serious, and she unleashed a silver ball of light with a palm strike.
The silver ball of light landed on the spatial distortion, instantly transforming it into a huge, transparent cube.
Inside this enormous cube, space was still. Xiao Ye No. 1 felt immense pressure from all sides, pressing itself right in the center.
Xiao Ye No. 1 emitted a faint blue light. He forcefully withstood the pressure, sat down cross-legged on the spot, and used the spiritual power attached to his body to explore this spatial cage.
The spiritual energy, like a root, grew and seeped into this spatial cage.
Shang Yunshu's face was covered in sweat. Although her own martial soul was powerful, the cost of using it was also a great expenditure of soul power.
A powerful martial soul not only requires sufficient soul power to drive it, but also places extremely high demands on the physical qualities of the soul master.
Ye Nanxiao pinched his chin, looking at Xiao Ye No. 1 sitting cross-legged, with ice pillars condensing behind him, and the ice pillars of birds bursting forth.
Seeing the approaching swarm of ice pillars, Shang Yunshu raised her spatial staff, drew a large circle, and activated her fourth soul skill.
The dense cluster of icicles crashed into the large circle drawn by Shang Yunshu. Shang Yunshu had actually opened a "door" in this space, swallowing the flock of bird icicles.
The next moment, Shang Yunshu drew another large circle, releasing the group of ice pillars that she had previously devoured.
"Try your soul skill, you little fox!" Shang Yunshu's small face revealed a smug smile.
"These days, does anyone still think they can defeat someone using someone else's skills?"
Ye Nanxiao waved his hand to control the group of ice pillars rushing towards him, and controlled all the ice pillars to hover around Shang Yunshu.
After calming down, Gu Huai got up and walked towards Xu Jiujiu.
Ignoring the female student who came forward to stop him, Gu Huai sat down on the chair next to Xu Jiujiu and said with narrowed eyes, "A person like Brother Ye should be perfect. It's just a pity that he has lust. Otherwise, he would be a legendary god."
"Even the legendary beings of the divine realm have desires; you heard many such tales when you were young," Xu Jiujiu said slowly, glancing coldly at Gu Huai.
"Now I know why you were willing to become Brother Ye's assistant. It's probably not His Majesty the Emperor's request, but yours, isn't it?" Gu Huai sneered.
"So what if it is?" Xu Jiujiu admitted it directly.
"That's normal. If it were me, I would do the same." Gu Huai agreed with Xu Jiujiu's point of view.
Under the long, astonished gaze, a hint of shyness flashed in Gu Huai's eyes as he said, "Who could resist an overly beautiful fox?"
Surrounded by the icicles, Shang Yunshu remained calm, gripping her spatial scepter and pointing it in Ye Nanxiao's direction.
A silvery-white orb large enough to hold an adult emerged from the scepter. Shang Yunshu stepped inside and disappeared into the orb.
The next moment, the same silvery-white ball of light appeared in front of Ye Nanxiao. Shang Yunshu, holding the spatial scepter, stepped out, with a ball of light in her left hand, inside which countless points of light were flowing.
"This soul skill must be kept!" Ye Nanxiao thought instantly.
Before Shang Yunshu could call out the name of the soul skill, Ye Nanxiao conjured a deep blue longsword in each of his hands.
His aura exploded instantly, and streaks of sword intent wrapped around his body, making Ye Nanxiao appear as if he had transformed into an extremely sharp longsword.
Shang Yunshu was startled by Ye Nanxiao's sudden change, and stood rooted to the spot, staring at Ye Nanxiao with fear.
Ye Nanxiao, who had previously had a gentle smile, suddenly transformed into a cold and sharp longsword.
The overwhelming sense of oppression made Shang Yunshu's calves tremble, and she could only barely stand by leaning on the spatial scepter.
The arena fell silent for a moment, and even those sitting in the audience could feel the cold and sharp aura emanating from the trainees.
Ye Nanxiao, who was completely different from the previous moment, cut through all their mockery like a sword, deeply piercing their hearts and leaving a deep impression.
Ye Nanxiao brandished two imperial swords, the sharp and cold sword intent blowing his long hair, and his whole body erupted with sword intent.
"Xue'er, lend me your power for now to help me seal the soul skill of the bun-haired loli."
Upon hearing this, the Snow Emperor reached out and lifted a corner of the seal, drawing her power and sword intent into the Emperor Sword held by Ye Nanxiao.
Ye Nanxiao's sword intent surged once more, and snowflakes began to fall from the sky.
The powerful sword intent that erupted from Ye Nanxiao once again completely stunned the onlookers.
They seemed to see a phantom forming behind Ye Nanxiao, a stunningly beautiful woman with a veiled face and a graceful figure, wielding two swords.
The illusory image of the stunningly beautiful woman transformed into specks of light and merged into Ye Nanxiao's twin swords.
Gu Huai stood up with a fanatical expression, opened his eyes, and stared at the figure that seemed capable of cleaving the heavens and earth.
Xu Jiujiu's eyes shone with a fervent light, filled with admiration.
Having experienced the Snow Emperor's sword intent up close, Shang Yunshu was now slumped on the ground, clutching the spatial scepter, her eyes filled with tears.
Without Shang Yunshu's deliberate control, the spatial cage that trapped Xiao Ye No. 1 collapsed.
Xiao Ye No. 1 stood up, patted himself off, and muttered, "I've only managed to grab a tenth or twentyth of the spatial energy."
While complaining, she ran to Ye Nanxiao's side and carried away the terrified Shang Yunshu.
Seeing Shang Yunshu being carried away by his clone, Ye Nanxiao finally released all control over the Emperor Sword.
Raising the Emperor's Sword, the extreme cold emanating from its blade seemed to freeze the space around them, leaving streaks of frost in the air.
The two imperial swords were placed on the left and right sides of the spatial passage opened by Shang Yunshu. Dense cold air climbed up the spatial passage, which was made of energy, slowing down the flow of energy within.
His right hand transformed into a piece of cold jade, reaching directly into the spatial passage and frantically capturing the spatial energy constructed within it.
Despite the Emperor's Sword's seal, the spatial passage disappeared after a quarter of an hour.
Ye Nanxiao was satisfied with the release of his martial spirit, retrieved Little Ye No. 1, and began to accept Little Ye No. 1's memories.
Seeing Ye Nanxiao withdraw his martial soul, Xu Jiujiu walked onto the field, stood beside Ye Nanxiao, and quietly waited for Ye Nanxiao to finish receiving the memories.
"Let's go back to Juxing Hall." After receiving the memories, Ye Nanxiao pondered that he had gained a lot of spatial energy, enough to create a prototype core array for testing.
"Okay." Xu Jiujiu followed silently behind Ye Nanxiao with a smile.
Watching the two leave together, the group of people who had been shouting earlier all walked to Gu Huai's side and remained silent.
They truly witnessed Ye Nanxiao's power up close, and their understanding of him was no longer limited to the images on the soul-guided light screen.
"He'll come again," Gu Huai said before walking away.
"Will they come again?" A chill ran down their spines.
After returning to Juxingtang, Ye Nanxiao went into Elder Luo's laboratory, found Elder Luo, and presented his ideas.
After hearing Ye Nanxiao's idea, Elder Luo asked with surprise, "You want to start creating a prototype of a spatial core array?"
How long has it been since they took my experimental data? And they're already ready to start production?
"I gained a lot from this trip to the Star Luo Royal Academy. I tried to capture some spatial energy for analysis and gained some insights into space. I'll see if I can make a prototype. I would appreciate it if Elder Luo could protect me," Ye Nanxiao said. He was worried that it might cause spatial turbulence, and if Elder Luo were there to protect him, the danger would be much smaller.
Old Luo stood to the side, understanding Ye Nanxiao's words, and did not object.
Ye Nanxiao released the suppression of spatial perception in his spiritual sea, and with his martial spirit possessing him, he summoned Little Ye No. 1 and Little Ye No. 2.
The two clones that were summoned again had the same insights, and the three of them digested their understanding of space together.
With his innate talent for powerful mental strength and the ability to simultaneously conceive ideas, the prototype of a core magic array for communicating with spatial energy was born in his mind.
The three of them started making it.
"To conduct research on soul tools while simultaneously working with his clone, what kind of soul beast could possess such a soul skill? Young friend Ye is truly fortunate," Elder Luo exclaimed.
Mimicking the same soul power fluctuations, Ye Nanxiao and his two clones worked together to carve the magic array circuit on a piece of rare metal. For the rare metal material, they specially chose Falling Star Refined Iron, which has a high affinity for soul power and an adsorption property for soul power, to ensure that the magic array can gather soul power to drive it.
As Ye Nanxiao began to carve, he suddenly felt an invisible resistance preventing him from carving. With each additional loop he carved, the resistance increased.
"Could it be a problem with the rare metal material itself? Or is it that the laws of space forbid it from being spied on?" Ye Nanxiao frowned deeply and increased the output of his soul power.
Slowly carving, stroke by stroke, as the carved magic circle circuit neared completion, a strange fluctuation grew in the laboratory, accompanied by ethereal sounds.
Although he didn't figure out where the sound came from, Elder Luo still activated his soul power barrier, sealed off the laboratory, and sent Xu Jiujiu out.
"Your Highness, this old man will stay here and watch over Young Friend Ye."
After a long while, she gently bit her red lips, knowing she couldn't help, so she could only wait outside the door.
The ethereal sound quickly turned into a piercing noise. Old Luo discovered that the noise appeared out of nowhere, originating from the space around Ye Nanxiao, and there was even a slight spatial distortion.
"Simply a core magic array can cause such a strange phenomenon? Or is there a problem with the core magic array created by Young Friend Ye?" With various doubts surging in his mind, Elder Luo resisted the urge to ask aloud and silently increased the output of his soul power.
As the magic arrays formed, Ye Nanxiao's understanding of space seemed to be drawn in some way, and he entered a state of enlightenment, with insights constantly flowing into his mind.
His arms moved unconsciously, and even Ye Nanxiao himself didn't know how many core magic arrays he had carved.
It wasn't until a crisp sound rang in his mind that Ye Nanxiao came back to his senses.
Carefully examining the soul tool in his hand, the core magic array on the surface of the Falling Star Refined Iron began to automatically draw in soul power.
Ye Nanxiao took a step back, allowing Little Ye No. 1 to slowly inject soul power into him.
As soul power was inputted, a sound rang out from the Falling Star Refined Iron, but Ye Nanxiao couldn't even tell what the sound was.
First, a slight suction appeared in the laboratory, picking up some papers, and then a small ball of silver light appeared above the Falling Star Refined Iron.
The light cluster was almost transparent, attracting light objects like paper to the air.
Ye Nanxiao's face lit up with joy, and he gestured to Little Ye No. 1 with his eyes, "Go, Little Ye."
Little Ye No. 1 groaned, his face crestfallen. "Why me again? Can't you let the second brother go?"
"Alright, the experiment is important, stop talking nonsense." Xiao Ye No. 2 slapped Xiao Ye No. 1.
Little Ye No. 1 gave Ye Nanxiao a resentful look and muttered, "How can there be such a main body? Isn't this bullying the clone? I'm so angry and cold. When will the clone be able to turn the tables?"
