Chapter 146: Chapter 141: This—Is Numerical Value!

Golden Harbor, Jeming’s former private estate, is now awaiting the initial construction of the “Golden Garden.”

The tens of thousands of residents outside the city, under strict planning, are sweating away, gradually sketching the outline of the garden from the flat land.

And Jeming has “exiled” himself into the deep underground laboratory of the estate.

This is his true paradise, with cold metal countertops, runic scrolls piled as high as mountains, and various precise and complex alchemy instruments, forming the world he is most familiar with.

The research notes provided by David are now quietly lying on his workbench, becoming the new cornerstone of his in-depth study of the Divine Power Faith Network on the Elorcia Plane.

David’s research, although not as in-depth as Jeming’s in the analysis of the Divine Power Faith Network, provides a completely different perspective.

David’s focus is on the underlying logic of mortal emotions, the essence of faith power, and how to effectively incite and guide these powers.

This incisive analysis of the “source” enlightened Jeming, as if opening a whole new door.

Before this, his research on the Divine Power Faith Network focused on energy transmission.

But in fact, the official term for the entire Divine Power Faith Network should be called the Energy Transmission Transformation System—besides transmission, there is also transformation.

This allowed Jeming’s research on the energy transformation system within the Divine Power Faith Network on the Elorcia Plane to make rapid progress, like dry firewood meeting a raging fire, and he quickly made amazing achievements.

“This is it, adjusting like this should be fine…”

In the center of the laboratory, Jeming was completely focused on adjusting a suspended metal disc in front of him.

This was the Element Storage Talisman Witchcraft he previously made.

However, compared to before, the metal disc now had some obscure and complex patterns with different colors.

These additional patterns are the latest results Jeming engraved after deeply researching the Divine Power Faith Network recently.

They interweave with the original rune system, like two different life forms coexisting in the same shell, creating a marvelous harmony.

The improvements he made not only increased the storage capacity of the Element Storage Talisman Witchcraft but, more importantly, its recovery effect was greatly improved, and the difficulty of replenishing the Elemental Pool’s reserves significantly decreased.

You see, before, if the Element Storage Talisman Witchcraft wanted to be fully charged, it required a special recharging device or relied on Jeming’s own long-term guidance.

But now, using the newly researched technology, it can completely recharge itself by continuously absorbing elements from the outside world!

This means that this witchcraft artifact can almost achieve self-sufficiency without the need for additional energy supplies.

Soon, Jeming finished adjusting the metal disc, ensuring that all runes were activated and the energy circuit was stable.

He cautiously brought it to the depths of the laboratory, a testing ground enveloped by multiple Protective Arrays.

This array, which he personally set up, was used for high-risk experiments and could isolate all energy fluctuations inside to prevent accidents.

“Self-charging mode, activate.”

With his command, the new patterns on the metal disc instantly lit up, emitting a faint glow.

The witchcraft artifact began to operate at high speed, producing a low humming.

The next moment, the instruments clearly displayed that the elemental forces within the testing ground were instantly absorbed, and the space initially filled with various elements suddenly became like a vacuum.

This phenomenon wasn’t shocking enough to surprise Jeming, as other Talisman Witchcraft could achieve the same effect when launching.

However, a truly astonishing scene occurred!

The barrier of the Protective Array surrounding the metal disc also began to shake violently, with the light of the runes on its surface quickly dimming.

The protective barrier became visibly transparent, as if it would collapse at any moment!

Watching this scene, Jeming’s pupils suddenly contracted, and then an unimaginable light bloomed on his face.

“This… this is…” Jeming’s mind raced with countless thoughts flashing like lightning across his Sea of Spirit.

He quickly rushed to the monitoring instruments, looking at the various data displayed above with an involuntary expression of excitement on his face:

“This Element Storage Talisman Witchcraft, after applying the Divine Power Faith Network research’s technology, in self-charging mode, actually forcibly plunders the elemental power condensed by the already formed witchcraft around it?!”

This can no longer be considered “absorption,” but should be called “plunder”!

Ordinary absorption simply extracts the elemental power from the environment that is free in the atmosphere and hasn’t been utilized yet.

But “plunder” forcibly pulls out elements from already bound and utilized witchcraft structures!

Although the “plunder” effect displayed by this Talisman Witchcraft is not very strong at this moment and cannot truly destroy a powerful witchcraft array, it already signifies an extremely terrifying possibility.

As long as it is designed properly, this thing in self-charging mode can even create a Forbidden Magic Domain with a good effect around it!

Any wizard casting witchcraft near it will face the risk of having their elements extracted and their power weakened.

“This isn’t right…”

After the excitement, a glimmer of doubt shone in Jeming’s eyes.

Although everyone keeps core technologies close to the chest, it can be seen from some purchasable knowledge that so far, no wizard seems to have researched a “plundering” effect while studying the Divine Power Faith Network.

This makes sense, as the essence of the Divine Power Faith Network is a system for energy transformation and transmission, not a plundering system, so fundamentally they are different.

After some thought, Jeming contacted Professor Clark and ordered a standard model Sixth Level Small Elemental Pool from him.

The Elemental Pool itself is a fairly standardized mass-produced product with many modules reserved for customers to modify themselves.

Jeming plans to use this as a comparison to further verify his hypothesis.

A few days later, the standard model of the small Elemental Pool was delivered to Jeming through the Teleportation Array in the camp.

Eagerly, Jeming disassembled it and attempted to add the same technology to the Elemental Pool.

Jeming cautiously activated the modified Elemental Pool and conducted tentative tests.

After activation, it did indeed enhance the efficiency of recharging from the Elemental Plane, with an energy collection speed several times faster than before the modification.

But this was the expected result and was similar to other Wizard Civilization research results on the Faith Network.

However, it did not have the astonishing “plundering” effect of his previous Element Storage Talisman Witchcraft.

The Protective Array was as stable as a mountain, not moving an inch.

“There’s indeed something fishy,” Jeming’s heart sank.

This proved that the issue was not entirely in the technology of the Divine Power Faith Network itself.

As for where the problem lies, it was naturally obvious—the internal structure of this Elemental Pool was purely a Wizard Civilization rune system, without any Cultivation Immortality Civilization talismans mixed in.

And his Talisman Witchcraft itself, besides Wizard Civilization runes, also had talismans from Cultivation Immortality Civilization!

The combination of the two resulted in a magical chemical reaction.

“But… why would such a result occur?” Jeming disconnected from the Magic Net, furrowing his brow, and delved back into his runes and notes.

He meticulously retraced every research step, every source of inspiration, every detail.

After several sleepless days and nights of in-depth research, he finally found a more suitable explanation.

The main reason for this effect lay in the differences in power utilization between Wizard Civilization and Cultivation Immortality Civilization.

Wizard Civilization relies on using spiritual power to manipulate external elements to gain power.

They construct precise Witchcraft Models to combine spiritual power with external elements, and then through the amplification of the Witchcraft Model, make energy more effectively exert its effect.

In terms of mobilized power, Wizard Civilization uses spiritual power to manipulate external elements, roughly in a 1:1 energy ratio.

And the reason Wizard Civilization can stand out among many civilizations in Multi-Dimensional Planes lies in the wizards’ precise control and efficient utilization of energy.

Through understanding world rules and accumulating knowledge, using different methods, they ultimately multiply the effects generated by these elements.

Simply put, wizards can exert a force of one into a force of ten, or even a million or ten million times the effect.

The Cultivation Immortality Civilization is entirely different.

Cultivators mainly rely on using their own power to elicit resonance with the Power of Heaven and Earth.

Their one unit of power can only exert the effect of one unit of power.

However, each unit of their power can resonate with and mobilize hundreds or thousands of times the power of heaven and earth, achieving the same effect!

In other words, the strength of cultivators lies in the resonance and mobilization of outside power.

“This is my true advantage!” Jeming slapped the table, his eyes shining with unprecedented brilliance.

The energy collection technology researched from the Divine Power Faith Network essentially improves the efficiency of energy transmission and transformation.

When this high-efficiency transformation technology unique to Wizard Civilization is combined with the powerful ability of Cultivation Immortality Civilization talismans to mobilize external power, an unexpected “chemical reaction” occurs!

The talismans of cultivation enhance the “resonance” between the Talisman Witchcraft and external elements, allowing it to draw energy from the environment more deeply.

And the transformation technology of the Divine Power Faith Network further improves the efficiency and “aggressiveness” of this energy mobilization, enabling it to not only draw from “free” elements but even forcibly “plunder” from already “occupied” energy structures.

This is not merely a technological breakthrough; it’s the most brilliant spark that has struck from the collision of two civilization systems within Jeming!

This finally made Jeming understand why his Talisman Witchcraft’s effects were so extraordinary.

If a First Level Wizard can exert one element tenfold, a Foundation Establishment Cultivator can use one unit of power to mobilize ten units of external power.

And Jeming’s Talisman Witchcraft combines the strengths of both, essentially using one unit of power to mobilize ten units of external power while also exerting each of these ten units tenfold!
