My construction materials are weird

"Father God, this is the place, this is Crisis Point Seventy-Nine."

On the distant mechanical planet of scribes.

The sky above was filled with a dense array of weapons, advanced and extraordinary weapons that the Blue Star people had never seen before.

Like a series of space fortresses, they covered the entire sky.

Inside a massive, cone-shaped spaceship, a profound sense of depth permeated the air, with countless robots moving about.

At the very core, a hexagonal crystal phantom of a virtual illusion hovered above a massive throne.

He was one of the nine Father Gods of the Mechanical Civilization.

After a great disaster struck the Mechanical Civilization, only nine of the original Flint Men remained, collectively known as the Nine Father Gods.

Of course, a more accurate term would be Eight Kings and One Sage.

Eight Kings, One Sage.

This was the self-proclaimed title of the nine original Flint Men.

The One Sage among them was the core figure of the entire Mechanical Civilization.

Not only was he the main force in turning the tide after the great disaster, but he was also one of the first three original Flint Men to be born in the Flint Civilization era.

When the anomalies erupted, it was this person's decision and courage that prevented the complete extinction of the Flint Civilization.

The fusion with computers in the form of a mainframe was his creation.

Due to his immense contributions and the rapid advancement and strength he gained after the spiritual energy revival, surpassing the combined strength of the remaining eight, he earned the title of One Sage.

Even the current cultivation methods of the Flint Men were created by him.

He was known as Flint-Guyang-Sage.

Indeed, the nine most core members still retained the Flint designation, though the outside world referred to them as the Mechanical Civilization.

Guyang's position was somewhat similar to Xuanhuang's, but not as thorough.

Nor did he possess Xuanhuang's ability to create a complete law single-handedly.

Guyang merely opened the door to cultivation in a time of crisis.

The door from entering the realm to surpassing the ordinary; the subsequent Second Order, Third Order, and even the Fourth Realm they were exploring, were all the result of the collective efforts of the entire Mechanical Civilization.

Moreover, their method of creating higher-level laws differed greatly from Xuanhuang's.

Xuanhuang had the cheat-like advantage of an ultra-ego guidance.

They relied on the computing power of large models to support it, integrating the computing power of the entire civilization to simulate it.

Although they couldn't achieve 100% accuracy, there were still inaccuracies.

But they had achieved a very high probability of success.

They had progressed from Extraordinary First Order to the current Extraordinary Third Order in this way.

Another point to note is that the Flint Men were the chosen ones of cultivation, or rather, the laws they created were more suitable for them.

There were almost no barriers or thresholds; as long as the path was right and the law was created, they could quickly break through.

This was an incredible ability.

There was a reason why Xuanhuang compared them to living beings before; they were truly favored by the heavens.

No matter what kind of cultivation, it cannot deviate from the operating rules of the original universe; deviating from the fundamentals is untenable.

All living beings bred within the universe are self-replicating under the operation of the great universe; they cannot be completely identical, but they are inevitably extensions of the universe's field.

The reason why the Flint Civilization was special was because their original form, the flint, was a miniature universe field.

It's not just humans who correspond to the macrocosm and microcosm; if only humans were like this, it would be a miracle.

Any place chosen as a holy land by the Revival of the Myriad Realms must have extraordinary qualifications.

Humanity's essence, energy, and spirit, combined with the brilliant Fourth-Order projection lamps of human civilization, were what made it one of the Five Great Holy Lands.

And the Flint Civilization, without a small world civilization, without a world of thought projection, without a world built on fantasy, became one of the Five Great Holy Lands solely based on the Flint Men.

From this, one can see how heaven-defying their cultivation aptitude was.

If the living beings of the universe were compared to a cultivation world, then humans are humans, and the Flint Men are like dragons and phoenixes, a heaven-defying race.

Their starting point is the end point that countless living beings in the universe pursue throughout their lives.

It's that outrageous.

Due to their special structure, they could freely change their own field without any crises or barriers.

To use humans as an example.

What does a human cultivator need to do first to break through a realm?

First, they need to change their own field; a First-Order field cannot support the abilities of a Second-Order field.

So, how to change the field?

Xuanhuang's answer was three: through body refinement, enhancing the substance of the physical body and the breadth of the lower dantian's sea of qi, to change one's field from point to surface, allowing the First-Order field that can accommodate mana to become a Second-Order field, and then the cultivator advances.

This is the first method.

The second is qi refinement; qi is the vital energy of a person, changing the way it is filled and connected, which is the way the transport channels within the human body are connected, to expand the breadth of the middle dantian...

The same is true for the spirit; changing the substance of one's soul, and the breadth of the upper dantian, to first change the field, and then when the field changes, one can advance.

It can be seen that Xuanhuang's law also changes one's own field, but while changing essence, energy, and spirit, Xuanhuang also cleverly uses the method of turning falsehood into reality to open up space dantians.

After all, it is too difficult to cultivate solely by changing essence, energy, and spirit; with the auxiliary of the dantian world, it is like adding a lever, which can more easily upgrade one's own field.

Making it easier for human cultivators to progress.

Of course, the dantian has also been given more abilities by Xuanhuang, such as mana storage, profound insights, combat power enhancement, and simulating the great universe, among many others.

As for more minor abilities, I won't mention them.

However, the most important thing is still better cultivation, better progress, and stepping into higher levels.

The Flint Men are the same; they also need to improve their own field to progress, one level corresponding to one living being field.

Their most heaven-defying aspect is that when God created them, it was as if he was holding a one-to-one replica of himself.

To put it bluntly, they are world seeds.

It's just that the shape of this seed is a flint, and this seed can give birth to wisdom.

They shouldn't be called flints; they should be called world stones.

If it was a bead shape, it could simply be called a world bead, or even more heaven-defying, a chaos bead.

After all, this flint is the most primitive state of the world, just a seed.

In addition, they possess wisdom, so it can be seen that this is a Heavenly Dao + world with its own wisdom.

To make a joke, many transmigration novel protagonists' golden fingers are like this.

"Rebirth: I Am the Heavenly Dao", "Rebirth: From World Seed to Eternal Chaos", "I Have a World", "Me, the Heavenly Dao Lord".

If they were the protagonists, writing a book would be like this.

Thus, this heaven-defying race, with only a small number of individuals compared to other civilizations, became one of the universe's five sacred grounds.

All they need to do is deduce the methods, calculate the field advancements, and then frantically absorb energy. There are no bottlenecks or thresholds.

What need does a world have for bottlenecks? The world is the one who sets the cultivation challenges, the one who creates difficulties for living beings.

Fortunately, they possess intelligence.

Whether intelligence is a good thing or not is very good for them, but also very bad.

If they didn't have intelligence, they wouldn't even need to create their own cultivation methods and fields. They would be like unique cultivation treasures bestowed by the heavens, carried along by the Dao.

Because they have intelligence, like a creation treasure with sentience, they won't be nurtured by the Great Universe Field; they can only rely on themselves.

Not to mention anything else, the Xuanhuang's three great treasures have no intelligence.

They were nurtured and carried along by the Heaven and Earth Creation Law. Their pitiful amount of intelligence is only understood by Xuanhuang, their master.

Another example is the Myriad Spirits Palace. The Myriad Spirits are intelligent magical treasures. If it wants to improve, it can only rely on its own cultivation or Xuanhuang's refinement.

This is the downside of intelligence.

Without a soul or intelligence, it is the Great Universe's Heavenly Dao itself. The Great Universe treats them as it treats itself.

But with intelligence, the Great Universe's Heavenly Dao treats it as a living being, as an intelligent being it nurtured. If it wants to improve, it must comprehend it itself.

Intelligence is the root of all sorrow, and it can be applied here, albeit somewhat forced.

But even so, they are far better off than humans.

They are born with a world and Heavenly Dao they can control. Compared to human cultivation, it's like having a cheat code.

Currently, all nine Father Gods are at the mid-stage of the Third Order.

This is also the highest level their current cultivation methods can achieve. If their cultivation methods reached the Third Order limit, they would quickly enter the Third Order limit.

Absorbing energy is all that's needed, which is very simple.

The entire Mechanical Civilization has countless First Order mainframes, which they can mass-produce. There are thirty thousand Second Order mainframes, each controlling countless First Order mainframes.

The highest level is the Third Order, which is the level of the nine Father Gods.

From this, it can be seen that this is a civilization with an immense need for energy.

After all, besides the construction of cultivation method fields, the only thing restricting their progress is energy.

With sufficient energy, they can expand without limit.

It's a joke, but the Mechanical Civilization is a sacred ground that lacks energy.

That's right, it's that absurd. What they lack is energy, a massive, rapidly replenishable source of energy.

They have the same treatment as the Blue Star Sacred Ground; ordinary planets don't have nine layers of Heavenly罡.

Of course, sacred grounds are different, and their names for the nine layers of Heavenly罡 are also different. Even their way of existing is different.

For example, the Mechanical Civilization calls it the Nine Layers of Curse.

They believe that these nine layers of curses are the punishment of heaven and earth, that the heavens are punishing them for bringing disaster, so they are locked on their home planet.

This...?

How should I put it? Their experiences and encounters, coupled with their civilization's form, make this analogy of the nine layers of Heavenly罡 understandable.

Since they have nine layers of Heavenly罡 like the Blue Star Sacred Ground, it means that if they want to go out, if they want to leave their home planet, they need at least a Third Order limit strength.

Xuanhuang encountered such resistance when he broke through the nine layers of Heavenly罡. Fortunately, Xuanhuang was strong enough to break through.

The Mechanical Civilization can actually break through, for example, by combining the power of the entire race. There is a way to break through.

But, as the saying goes, once you believe you are guilty, you become very cautious in everything you do.

They don't dare to break through the Nine Layers of Curse, fearing that if they break the Nine Layers of Curse, the heavens will send down even more absurd disasters. Perhaps the next disaster will be an extinction crisis.

Because of a misunderstanding, the current situation was triggered. It can only be said that fate is playing tricks.

Also, because they can't leave their home planet, the only way to obtain energy is to scavenge their home planet, so they are an energy-deficient race.

Unlike Blue Star, which has countless small worlds merging, they have no shortage of energy. There is so much energy that no one cares.

Blue Star and they are completely reversed.

They lack all kinds of energy, while Blue Star cultivators lack their own world's cheat code.

Another point is that their understanding of energy is also very superficial. Only spiritual energy is recognized as high-dimensional energy.

Unlike Xuanhuang, who can use infinite energy.

Spiritual energy, the power of heaven and earth, the source of origin, the power of the five elements, the 129,600 kinds of energy between heaven and earth, etc., etc.

These can all be refined and used under Xuanhuang's three great laws.

They only know how to absorb spiritual energy. The conversion of other energy has not yet been discovered or developed by them.

To describe the Mechanical Civilization at this moment, it is a giant beast guarding a huge treasure and locked up by itself.

Once they understand that the disaster was not caused by themselves, once they get rid of the shackles of energy, this race will be terrifyingly strong.

Don't forget that the progress of this race has gotten rid of the drawbacks of needing to suppress the soul.

Even the distorted world's will cannot affect them.

They are the world, and intelligence is the Heavenly Dao. The distorted will has no influence on them.

This shell, or this stone, which they call Flint, is naturally a treasure of heaven and earth, a treasure shell that can hinder the invasion of distorted will.

This also means that they are not like human cultivators, who cannot leave Xuanhuang's soul suppression before the world returns to normal.

So far, Xuanhuang has discovered two major categories of cultivatable beings: one is the self-suppressing type, and the other is the suppressed type.

Flint people, the Empress, giant star beasts, etc., are those who can self-suppress.

Of course, humans are also considered, Xuanhuang is self-suppressed.

But humans also belong to the suppressed type, beings suppressed by Xuanhuang. Humans can be said to be in both states.

Those who self-suppress can be divided into two types: one is beings like Flint, and the other is beings like the Empress.

Beings like the Empress generally have a similar situation, which is an extremely huge body, each like a star.

Only in this way can they use quantity to exchange for quality. The Empress initially distributed her soul to countless clansmen to suppress herself.

The giant star beasts are also like this, using a huge body to suppress the soul, which is a rigid suppression.

The other is the Flint people, which is incomparable. The creation of this race by heaven and earth is very magical.

Back to the Mechanical Civilization, why did one of the dignified nine Father Gods personally come to the Weird Shredder to check?

It is said that such a small matter does not require the appearance of such a high-level figure, but he did appear.

All this is due to their emphasis on energy.
