Longevity Martial Arts: Starting from Inner Core Skill-Chapter 468 - 1 Announcement of the Teleportation Array
Chapter 468 -1 Announcement of the Teleportation Array
“68% completion rate… not bad, but a bit slow for me!”
The progress through the Reflection Realm wasn’t small, but Wang Sheng had already broken through the Reflection Realm back in the old calendar.
Now, with the new calendar almost reaching its 10th year, over a decade had passed, and the 68% progress, compared to before, was indeed much slower.
Of course, Wang Sheng was aware that this was actually normal, his cultivation speed could even be described as remarkably fast.
According to the Inner Core Skill’s described cultivation time, achieving such progress without decades or even centuries would be nearly impossible.
“I should be content, but facing external enemies, it’s still not enough.”
Wang Sheng thought of Kui Tian Monarch and Martial Arts True Monarch’s disdainful looks, and felt a great sense of crisis.
Thus, he turned his gaze towards his own Spirit World.
There, he had stored several years’ worth of Pure Spiritual Power and miscellaneous thoughts.
These reserves of Pure Spiritual Power could likely improve his Reflection precision by 5% to 10%, reflecting his Spiritual Body more completely.
Not only that, Wang Sheng also found that his Spirit World had inexplicably expanded quite a bit, despite no advancement in realm and no application of the Lifeless Vacuum Sensing Chapter.
Originally, after reaching the Reflection Realm, it could cover an entire province; as his power increased, it had expanded to cover more than two provinces, and now, it had nearly doubled.
“Has it expanded so much because of the disappearance of the Dynasties’ Spirit Worlds?”
There hadn’t been any changes within him, so the change was most likely external—the only thing that happened externally was the disappearance of the Dynastic Spirit Worlds.
“It seems that when the Dynastic Spirit Worlds existed, they seemed to have no effect, but in reality, they suppressed my Spirit World. Their disappearance has actually freed up space, allowing my Spirit World to ‘stretch out’.”
“Indeed, from every aspect, erasing the Dynasty’s Spirit World was the right choice.”
His own Spirit World was now the basis for his rapidly increasing strength; anything that could enhance his Spirit World, he would do.
“It looks like the Spirit World needs to be updated again…”
With this much additional space, it could accommodate more people.
“This aligns perfectly with Huangtian’s upcoming promotion of the Teleportation Array; soon, the harvested spiritual power will increase once again, but there’s no need to rush it now… let’s use the current Pure Spiritual Power first.”
After using the current Pure Spiritual Power, his cultivation level would rise and his Spirit World would definitely expand, and by then, he could remodel it all at once.
Thus, Wang Sheng entered his Spirit World, and began to absorb the accumulated Pure Spiritual Power of several years.
After absorbing it, he returned to the real world to continue his cultivation.
His cultivation gradually improved.
However, while he was cultivating, his body also underwent changes, his spiritual power reflecting and mingling with his Qi-Blood.
A part of it merged into the Power of Great Medicine, reflecting his spiritual power.
While another part was becoming the dominant force, beginning to undergo transformations…
As he was cultivating, time quietly moved into the 10th year of the new calendar.
The Datong United Nations had been established for ten years.
This, too, was when Huangtian and other high-level officials of Datong were announcing various policies.
“Unfortunately, the news can’t be instantly communicated to everyone; we can only declare it in the capital first!”
“Leader, such earth-shattering news, once spread, will quickly reach all of Datong; we have already set up the basic network for the Teleportation Array, it can operate in the central provinces.”
There were many things to be announced this year, but the most important was the existence of the Teleportation Array.
“The time has come, Leader!”
Datong’s capital was extremely bustling, today countless people gathered in Datong’s largest square, participating in the celebration of the tenth anniversary of its establishment.
After the celebration ceremony passed, Huangtian stood out as the Leader.
“Citizens of Datong, through our concerted efforts, Datong has smoothly passed ten years; the changes in these ten years, I believe everyone can feel…”
Huangtian first summarized the work in Datong, almost everyone subconsciously nodded internally, the development of Datong was evident.
“Of course, there are also major problems. With such vast territories in Datong, even a Grandmaster, without eating or drinking, would need several years to travel across all of Datong’s territory, let alone ordinary people?”
“However, precisely because it is Datong, it connects all people together; if communication is difficult, how can it be called a nation…”
Huangtian brought up one of Datong’s most troubling issues.
Datong was strong, the territories vast, one would need to cross tens of thousands of li between what were once two dynasties.
A Grandmaster would need a long time to travel all over, and only a Great Grandmaster capable of flying and moving quickly could comfortably travel between regions.
But how many Great Grandmasters were there?
So, actually, Datong nominally governed almost all areas, but it seemed there were no changes between each area.
This was not the kind of nation Huangtian and the Taiping Sect leadership wanted to create.
This tenth anniversary saw many Martial Artists attending.
Many came from other regions, some traveling to the central provinces taking more than a year, even longer.
However, they did not understand why Datong’s leaders were discussing these issues now.
“Does Datong have a solution?”
“They want everyone to have more convenient access to travel between the various states; do they also expect everyone to become a Great Grandmaster?”
After subduing various dynasties, there is now only one nation, Datong, and the former dynasties were restructured into states.
Many knowledgeable people understand this.
Datong wants to strengthen the nation’s unity.
“It’s not as easy as it sounds.”
Many Martial Artists were watching with a spectator’s mentality.
On such an important day, everyone from Datong College was there, and they were all expressing their opinions.
Li Xueqian was one of them.
“Could it be that the officials have invented some kind of tool for rapid movement?”
Having studied at the Mechanical College for several years, his strength had not only reached the Grandmaster Level, but his understanding of Mechanical Techniques was incomparable to before.
He had moved beyond just using fast carriages and now worked with more advanced tools.
Hearing the Leader’s words, he suspected that the officials must have developed something impressive.
“I’m not sure, I haven’t received any information. The officials haven’t specified, which probably means it’s not Mechanical Techniques, but then again, Mechanical Techniques also have their limits…” said the head of the Mechanical Department.
Li Xueqian frowned.
He didn’t like this statement, but he couldn’t refute it either; he understood why the head would say so, as Mechanical Techniques had reached a bottleneck and were difficult to advance.
Of course, there was another important reason—while the Leader and the Leader’s Master greatly valued Mechanical Techniques, it didn’t mean others were willing to be as dedicated.
“Ah…” Li Xueqian sighed internally, unwilling to give up, “I hope whatever the officials bring this time can inspire me!”
Meanwhile, Huangtian, seeing that the atmosphere was ripe, moved on to the main topic.
“To tightly connect all the major states together, I have sought from my teacher something called the ‘Teleportation Array.’ With it, a hundred li distance is merely a moment, ten thousand li also less than a quarter hour, and it can be used by both ordinary people and Martial Artists!”
Spatial transfer does not eliminate distance but shortens it; thus, teleportation still takes time, and ten thousand li roughly takes about ten minutes.
Although this speed couldn’t match Wang Sheng’s, what mattered most was its widespread applicability, even for ordinary people.
Of course, that was Wang Sheng’s thought; to other people including the Great Grandmasters, the existence of a Teleportation Array was like a fantasy.
“Is this true?”
“A hundred li in a moment, perhaps even a Great Grandmaster can’t achieve that?”
“Remove ‘perhaps.’ How could a Great Grandmaster achieve a hundred li in a moment?”
When Huangtian spoke, nobody believed.
However, even if they didn’t believe, they understood that, as the Datong Leader, he wouldn’t just say things without reason.
That meant—
It was true!
The Teleportation Array was indeed miraculous!
“With the existence of the Teleportation Array, Datong is probably heading for another revolution!”
Anyone with a bit of foresight knew what the Teleportation Array represented.
At this point, Huangtian continued, “I know you might not believe it, but we’ve already been setting up in every city of Central State. The Teleportation Arrays are installed and will start operating on the first of February. Everyone can use it; the first year in Central State will be a trial, so it will be free. After that, it will gradually expand and eventually, fees will be introduced…”
With these words, no one doubted anymore.
The scene fell into a hushed silence.
Countless thoughts ran through different minds.
Some saw change, some saw profit, others felt confusion…
“Teacher, with the existence of the Teleportation Array, do we still need to study Mechanical Techniques?”
Before, Li Xueqian was confident, but now, he wondered if any amount of research in Mechanical Techniques could surpass the Teleportation Array.
The department head didn’t know how to respond.
The emergence of the Teleportation Array was indeed too shocking.
However, just as the two fell into silence, a voice sounded.
“Although the Teleportation Array is good, it is different from Mechanical Techniques. If Mechanical Techniques are well-researched, they can also play a huge role. If you lose heart now, then I must have misjudged you!”
Li Xueqian was all too familiar with that voice.

He turned to look, and didn’t know when, but a young man had appeared beside him.
It was the Leader’s Master who had once given him the “Mechanical Technique.”
“Headmaster!” The Leader’s Master, also the honorary headmaster of Datong College.
“No need for formalities, the important thing is, do you understand what I mean?”
Wang Sheng also knew about the tenth anniversary and thus had come to join the excitement; he hadn’t expected to run into Li Xueqian, whom he had previously taken an interest in.
“Headmaster, can Mechanical Techniques really make it?”
“Whether it can isn’t up to me but up to you, and all those who study Mechanical Techniques. Your capabilities will decide the future of Mechanical Techniques!”
