Eternal life begins with saving my clan

Three days later, the Barren Land underwent a series of earth-shaking rapid developments.

The most notable one was a massive purple light flickering on the Southern sea.

The purple light divided the sea into two sides. The lucky beasts that were able to escape outside the formation breathed a sigh of relief, while those that were not that lucky were trapped in the barren land.

The only grace was the powerful defensive formation that would be opened once a month to let new lifeform enter the sea.

Apart from that, the cities, towns, and villages had formation masters working around the protection walls.

Aside from the most obvious ones, the blacksmiths and the engineering department worked around the clock.

The engineering department was made up of three departments: Blacksmith, Construction, and the Formation department.

Each of the disciples had been taught the intricacy of those three vital occupations, allowing them to create the engineering department.

The top disciples for the engineering department were Ai and Aiguo.

Even though they were not in the sect, that didn't stop them from learning from the best, and that was the sect master, their master, Su Yen.

Anyone from modern Earth would know the products created in the engineering hall.

The device was 3 feet in height and feet in length with various small openings at the front and back. Experience exclusive tales on m v|l e'm,p| y- r

Inside was a thin metal coated yellow inscribed with tens of various runes.

To the side was an opening that could close and open. It housed the slot for a spirit stone.

On top were three buttons. One to switch on the device, the second to turn the machine to cold air, and the last one to make the machine give off hot air.

Looking at the rectangular object, Supreme Elder Jie and Su Lan were the elders in charge of supervising all the various inventions.

"Are you sure this thing would breathe both cold and warm air?" Supreme Elder Jie asked with a doubtful expression on his face.

"That should be the case. We've tested everything, and there is no error," the elder in charge of the engineering said with a not-so-sure tone.

"If that's the case, let's see," Su Lan added from the side.

From the group of disciples standing by the side, a tall girl stepped out and pressed the first button.

A red light flashed from the top of the machine, but nothing happened.

Everyone in the hall held their breath, waiting for the device to perform its magic.

After a couple of minutes with nothing happening, Elder Jie and Su Lan looked at each other before they looked at the elder in charge.

Beads of sweat gathered on the forehead of the elder. They had done everything according to the schematic from the sect master, so why was it not working?

Just as the elder was on the brink of a mental breakdown.

"I think I know why it does not work," said a boy from the disciples as he stepped forward and pressed the second button.

The moment he pressed it, the air in the atmosphere trembled. In a blink, the temperature in the hall began to drop at a visible speed.

"Wow! It's getting cold," Su Lan exclaimed.

The elder in charge and the disciples breathed a sigh of relief as their faces blossomed into proud smiles.

"Supreme elder, it works." The elder in charge declared proudly. "With this, we don't have to worry about the humidity in the room or hall."

"Good, well done. But if this continues like this, won't we freeze at this rate?" Elder Jie asked.

"No. No." He shook his head now that he had regained his confidence.

He strolled proudly toward the device and pressed the button again. Quickly, the air stopped freezing.

"Users can control the coldness, and if the weather is cold like in winter, you switch to the hot air," he announced and pressed the last button.

Instantly, the cold air disappeared, and the temperature rose, and everyone in the hall began to sweat.

Feeling all this, a bright smile was plastered on Elder Jie and Su Lan's faces.

"Good. Good. Start the mass production. We need as many as possible," Elder Jie declared.

"What is it called?" Su Lan asked.

"Spirit Air Condition. In short, SAC."

After leaving the SAC department, they went to the next department with much more anticipation.

"Do you think the next department will have completed their project?" Supreme Elder Jie asked with both hands behind his back.

"I think so... No one will want to disappoint the sect master," Su Lan responded.

After a couple of minutes, they entered a big building. There were already people waiting for them.

"Welcome..." A middle-aged woman greeted with a bright smile.

"Thank you. Please lead us to your project; we have a lot of things to check," Elder Jie said.

"Yes. Yes. Please follow me," she responded respectfully, leading the way with a large stride.

At the center of the building were hundreds of disciples gathered to the side, and on the top of a wooden table was a sleek-looking device.

The device had a width of two inches, a height of about 5 feet, and a length of 8 feet.

The front was made of glass, while the back and sides were made of plastic.

To the side was a small spirit stone slot.

Looking at the beautiful device with a big glass, Elder Jie and Su Lan looked at each other before Su Lan spoke.

"What is this?"

"This is a Spirit Television or rather, Spirit TV," the woman responded with a bright smile filled with pride.

Spirit TV!

The name piqued their interest more, and they couldn't wait to see what the function of the sleek Spirit TV was.

"Show us what it can do," Su Lan asked with a tone filled with anticipation.

She nodded and pressed the small button on the side of the Spirit TV.

Instantly, the Spirit TV lit up, but everything was blank. Shortly, an image of three disciples of the department appeared on the screen.

"Wow!" Su Lan exclaimed.

She had seen the pictures of people taken by the Spirit Image Crystal, appearing in her mind, but the feeling from seeing them with her naked eyes was different.

"How is this possible?!" She added, still stunned by the video playing right in front of her.

"It's a long complicated method, but everything is due to the Sect Master's ingenuity," the elder in charge of the project responded.

"This... is... good." Supreme Elder Jie was speechless and could only muster that broken sentence.

"Do you use the Spirit Image Crystal to send their image inside it?" Su Lan asked, still in shock.

"No..." She shook her head. "We used a new specialized Spirit Image Crystal."

"Really!"

"Yes."

"But what is the purpose of this? We already have this function on the Spirit Comms." Su Lan questioned with a slight puzzle on her face.

The middle-aged woman paused for a bit before responding. "I heard it was something related to media and entertainment."

Media and Entertainment.

Elder Jie and Su Lan looked at each other, and the puzzlement on their faces deepened.

'I need to have a talk with that brat....' She grinned when she realized she was calling the most powerful man in the Barren Land a brat.

While all these modern devices were being built in the engineering department, Su Yen came out from his room. After overcoming the Golden Core tribulation, he used three days to get used to his newfound power.

Now, his new self could defeat his previous self with a lift of a finger. The main difference between Core Refining realm and Golden Core was the pureness of the spiritual energy, the almost never-exhausting spiritual energy, and their attunement to the dao.

After breaking into the Golden Core realm, he could sense his Sword Soul was about to have another breakthrough, and his sword intent was on the threshold of reaching a higher realm.

Apart from that, he could sense the chaotic energy more than before.

Without using his Sword Soul and sword intent, if he manipulated a bit of the chaos energy and used it for an attack, it could defeat hundreds of Peak Core Refining experts.

Apart from that, he sensed more profound energy. His instinct was telling him it was the providence of the world.

He tried to pry more into such mysterious energy, but it eluded him every time he got close.

After trying a couple of times and failing, he ignored the sensation and focused on the most important thing.

Now, his spirit sense without augmentation from his Sword Soul and Bloodline power could cover the whole sect and deep into the Dread Shade. Its radius was over 5 kilometers.

From his spirit sense, he saw all the elders full of smiles as they built various jaw-dropping devices.

Watching all this, he smiled gently and nodded. He was pleased by their rapid development and the direction in which the barren land was going.

"Now, it's my turn. As their leader, I can't be behind them."

In Zizhu prefecture capital, three men covered in blood rushed into the capital with their faces full of urgency.

From their armor, they were the soldiers stationed at the border of the prefecture to guard against the monster race attack.

But why would they rush back to the capital? Everyone who saw them wondered.

Inside the main hall of the prefecture lord, the three soldiers fell on one knee.

"My Lord," one of the soldiers shouted and stretched a scroll dyed in his blood.

With a wave of his hand, the scroll moved into the hand of the prefecture lord.

The prefecture lord didn't have any change in his expression and unfolded the scroll.

He read the content of the scroll, and his expression changed, and he shouted.

"Why did the Governor attack us!"
