Cultivation towards immortality, starting from being a fisherman-Chapter 742 - 398: A Huge Surprise!

"Ignite!"

On the outer space orbit of Water Blue Star, within the colossal space laboratory constructed with the aid of Transcendent power.

A command was firmly issued by an Eastern Ancient Country scientist with white but vigorous hair.

In the sci-fi silver cylindrical chamber of the laboratory, a buzzing sound erupted, followed by a brilliant blue light.

Around the blue light, there formed several circles of purple halos.

It made the view extraordinarily beautiful and filled with a sense of mystery.

"It actually succeeded..."

"The problem that stumped my teacher, and his teacher for their whole lives, was so easily solved in my generation?"

As the successful ignition commenced, he looked at the various data displayed on the surrounding projection panels.

The white-haired old scientist felt a sense of surrealness.

Though the experiment had been a great success, it delivered him a sense of unreality.

Standing behind the old scientist were several experts, all disciples or protégés of the elder, and tops in their field; otherwise, they wouldn’t qualify to participate in this test.

Seeing their stunned mentor, they all understood his feelings at the moment.

After all, the laboratory housed what was once considered a vital national asset: Controlled Nuclear Fusion!

Controlled Nuclear Fusion, always touted as being 50 years away, although in reality, considerable progress had been made by their Eastern Ancient Country, and they even started commercial projects after many compromises.

Yet, the version of Controlled Nuclear Fusion that the public understood as representing massive amounts of cheap energy, was barely seeing the dawn.

However, with the advent of the Transcendent.

Transcendent forces, through a spokesperson, approached them and said: An elder finds your research project intriguing and has decided to significantly support you.

Then, everything was like a dream.

Not only did their funding suddenly increase by tens of times.

Their test site was also upgraded from the ground to space.

But what they found most dreamlike was the Transcendent solution to the technical problems they encountered.

Is there a problem with the component manufacturing process?

An Artifact Refiner was directly deployed to refine the most suitable components on the spot.

Materials laid down couldn’t resist neutron radiation, failing after one use, meaning exorbitant replacement costs.

This was also a big reason why Controlled Nuclear Fusion, though controllable and the output exceeded the input, stayed confined to the laboratory.

Not to mention every Controlled attempt costing so much just looked like a story to request funding.

It was, however, a problem that troubled experts in the field for a century.

Those waiting for a breakthrough in material science hadn’t seen one come on the technological tree.

But Transcendent materials fully satisfied the needs.

Of course, even Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures find it difficult to continually withstand the strong radiation of nuclear fusion.

After all, they’d have to hold up over a long period, not just a moment; Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures able to fully meet these conditions on their own are immensely precious—wouldn’t they be better used to refine Divine Weapons and Magic Treasures?

So, what really solved the material issue for the device were the Formations inscribed on those internal patches.

And the top-grade Spirit Stone, which was the core of the Formation.

With the Formation formed by the top-grade Spirit Stone,

a controlled nuclear fusion device could run stably for three or four hundred years.

This was why Su Ping, after obtaining a large amount of Middle-Upper Grade Spirit Stones from North King in the Golden Crow Realm and temporarily having an abundance of Spirit Stones,

finally began using the previously unwilling methods to solve the Controlled Nuclear Fusion device issue.

And the reason he was willing to invest so heavily

was that Su Ping, after having a lot of top-grade Spirit Stones,

saw the possibility of constructing and setting up a colossal space warship filled with Big Arrays.

For such a warship to play a supporting role in battles against High Tier Cultivators and pose a threat to them,

undoubtedly, it must increase its output power.

And in terms of high-power energy output,

scientific civilization still has its merits.

Nuclear fusion is indeed an embodiment of these merits.

Together with nuclear fusion, there’s also the super-high temperature plasma beam—a great weapon from the Karlo civilization that Su Ping received.

Using the nuclear fusion device to supply vast amounts of energy and harnessing the power of the Big Array to condense this energy into the output device, forming a plasma beam and then launching it to attack.

This was one of the uses Su Ping thought of with his knowledge of Formations.

And as research deepened, Su Ping believed there would be even more methods of use.

For instance, the Sky Flipping Seal gave Su Ping many inspirations.

Just waiting to obtain the Spirit Light Mist Fish, understand it, transcend the Breaking Realm Divine Artifact, and then apply it elsewhere.

Then, under the energy supplied by the nuclear fusion device, conduct multiple pseudo-Sky Flipping Seal level attacks.

Thinking about it, the prospects of applying Controlled Nuclear Fusion with the help of the Transcendent are quite promising indeed.

With the successful Controlled Nuclear Fusion experiment in space, when the news was transmitted to the surface of the earth, it caused a stir among various news media, while at the same time,

the vast population of Water Blue Star, who had been closely following the management office of the Transcendent cooperation projects,

saw it starting to release a lot of information during this period.

Many new cooperative projects were initiated, and funding quickly secured, with the expectation of materializing within a month.

Correspondingly, a large number of workers were recruited for these cooperative projects.

Because the manpower demand was so great,

the standards were gradually lowered.
