The war part 2

/*unedited*/

Inside the Great Wu academy crafting research building.

The people are rushing to and fro as they busily go about their business and research. Inside this building, besides Shin Jiao and the group who are researching for the communication advancement, there are also many who are currently doing some projects and research as the cultivators in the Wu kingdom are now fascinated with the combination of technology and cultivation.

Meanwhile, a great change has happened inside the Great Wu Academy. In these few weeks, the old buildings of the academy are now being changed to look like the one in the crafting department. And the highest of all the buildings on this huge campus is the principal office.

This is because the principal saw the structure of the buildings and had a sudden thought in his mind. The principal is not only a powerful cultivator; he too is a fast thinker and a good planner. Hence he was able to analyze the structure of the crafting building and decided to task the builders to build him the tallest building on the campus.

The style of the building is a combination of the old eastern style architecture and modern structure using metal as the foundation instead of cement.

As the days go by, Shin Jiao and his group have now finished the prototype for the long-range communication transmitter. If this project is successful, then the first internet would be born in this world. Many benefits would come with the birth of this technology, and of course, there are some hidden dangers too.

But for Shin Jiao, the benefits would outweigh the danger. Hence he is willing to go through with this path in his research.

Inside the laboratory, Shin Jiao is currently writing something on his computer.

People could not understand the codes he is doing. However, if they know what it is it would blow their mind. Shin Jiao is actually starting to make the codes for the virtual world that he has planned. Since he has already finished the prototype then it is time for him to start making the software for it.

The plan is simple, he would build a free program and he would dive inside that program and shape a world inside it using this spiritual sense. With the power of a cultivator's spiritual sense, then he would be like a god inside that world. While coding a sudden problem appears in his mind.

He was far too affix to cultivators that he forgot that in this world, not only cultivators exist there are also mortals and mages.

Standing up from his seat, Shin Jiao paces back and forth while thinking of a solution to this problem. This is also the same reason why people on earth are unable to enjoy full dive into virtual reality.

Then suddenly he remembers a mission that was given to him and that he never has finished yet. The 2nd prince of the Wu kingdom gave him a mission to build the scanner for those beast-men who has the ability to shapeshift. And in that mission, he is to gather three main materials, the mind stone, blood essence of a level 6 beast, and soul flower.

Now, in these materials, he remembers what the mind stone is used for. It is used to record one's memory and can be used as a main processor just like a computer, or a very powerful A.I.

With this in mind, Shin Jiao began planning his next moves.

Meanwhile, while Shin Jiao is busy with his research and stuff, a group has already set off to travel to the kingdom of Wu.

Along with Qian Li, there are ten more soldiers who are her back up. And the kingdom also sends a nascent realm cultivator to protect her. This is because the standing of Qian Li in the eyes of the emperor is very important. The emperor could not let anything happen to her because she holds one of the keys to advance the future of the empire.

The emperor trusted the people ruling Shin County because he saw that those people do not pursue power and authority. What they wanted is equality and just a place to belong to. And with that small matter, he is willing to compromise to obtain a great advantage for his empire.

While on the road to the teleportation gate, Qian Li began to imagine what she would do when meeting her master.

"Hey, do you think the captain is feeling okay?" one of the soldiers asked.

"What do you know? Captain Qian Li is the strongest warrior in the Shin County Force…"

"Hey, you two quiet down… I think the captain is thinking of something."

"Yeah, I think she is thinking of a man. From my woman's intuition she looks like she is excited to see someone she longed to see for the longest time." one of the woman soldiers whispered.

"I heard that she and Miss Qin Lou have a falling out because of master Shin Jiao."

"Yeah, that's right… I never thought that the two of them would fight because of a single guy. I thought that both of them love master Shin Jiao."

"If you know who master Shin Jiao is, then you would also admire him. Do you know that he is the true master of the base? He was the one who made all of our lives change into something better."

"Yeah, but alas, his memory was lost because of a fatal attack by the guards from the kingdom of San where captain Li is from."

"Really? I didn't know about this story."

As the soldiers discussed in a low voice, Qian Li didn't bother them as she is too busy in her own world. The man who was tasked to protect Qian Li heard everything and was astounded. As a cultivator who has reached the nascent realm, he is always inside his cultivation cave for hundreds of years. He has just recently come out a few weeks ago and was astounded by the changes in the empire.

If he was not escorted by a member of the Xi family in the empire, he would think that he has actually traveled to another world.

One of the changes he immediately saw in the main city of the empire is the tall buildings that seem to scrape the skies.

Then he saw that everyone is holding a small box object on their hands as they walk down the streets. Many are also talking at that object like they were crazy people. But because of his sharp hearing, he was dumbfounded to hear that there are voices coming from the other end. It was like those expensive transmission talismans. But in the case of the small box, it is far better as the transmissions are simultaneous between two people.

Now that he has learned of the man who is responsible for this miracle. He wanted to meet him and see that genius in person.

The person sent by the empire to protect Qian Li is Gung Xi. He was raised by the Xi family and was priced because of his talent in cultivation. Although he was already old when he reached the nascent realm, he is still a very powerful fighter with plenty of experience in battle. Hence he was chosen for this mission to consolidate his cultivation.

Gung Xi didn't have a family of his own because he was a cultivation addict. He spent most of his life and time in cultivating. He would only find joy in watching and playing with his other relatives' grandsons and granddaughters, yet he never plans of having a family of his own. In his 500 years of existence, Gung Xi has fallen in love once, however, it almost cost him his own soul.

Due to him not being able to show his love to the woman, the woman was disappointed and went to another kingdom. Then in that kingdom, she met someone and the two was married.

When Gung Xi heard this, he cried in silence and bore the pain. Then one day, while trying to break through and form his infant soul, his heart demon was tested. He almost falls and died because of the heart demon which was hidden deep in his heart.

And so from then on, he swore to not love anyone ever again.

While the group travels, Gung Xi discovered a lot of things about the new place near the city of Dis. Many new words that he could not understand arouse his curiosity. While he was listening to the talk of the soldiers, one of the women with a mature yet beautiful appearance, showed curiosity towards the powerful cultivator.

Although the beautiful middle-aged woman looks like one of the soldiers because she wore the same clothes as the rest, she has a white armband on her left arm. In that armband, there is an insignia of a plant and a red cross.

This insignia signifies that the woman is the healer of the group and a research assistant at the same time.

Her name is Fu Rong Bai. Although she was just an ordinary mortal woman who uses herbs to help heal others in their village, she was well respected. Spending most of her time in herbs, she was past due on her marriage as she would always be in the mountains.

One day, the village was attacked by bandits and they didn't have any other choice but to leave. She moves along with the villagers and tried to find a new place for them to live in. Then they heard of a place called Mortal haven. All of them traveled through the rough terrain and harsh weather just to reach that place.

And due to her help the villagers were able to survive without any casualties.

When they reached the place, Fu Rong Bai was discovered to have the power of the mages. So she was trained even though she was already an old lady and taught them how-to manipulate mana. As time went by, they discovered that her improvement was one of the fastest and so she was promoted.

And now, even her appearance has changed from a 70-80 years old looking old lady, into a beautiful and mature woman in her 40's. She knew that this is because of the power of mana coursing through her whole body.

In their travel, the two would sometimes look at each other and gestures a respectful nod every now and then.

After two days of travel, they now arrived at the teleportation gate of the empire. Everyone is excited to see the teleportation gate and out of the ten soldiers, three of them are looking at the huge edifice with curiosity as if they wanted to tear the whole thing apart and study it.
