Chapter 319 A Giant Leap in Human History! Self-Circulating Energy Systems!

Di Qiu'er listened from the side, completely confused, but she managed to grasp one key phrase: "Eternal Flame? It sounds like an attribute of the Ultimate Flame."

She proudly raised her chin. "I'm good at this. Flames are as obedient as living things in my hands."

Lin You smiled and said, "That's perfect. I might need your help controlling the fire during the test later."

Perfect timing, it gives Di Qiu'er something to do. He's not some superman, nor is he a giant of gold; he can't do everything by himself. That's what a team is all about—you help me, I help you. His energy is limited, so he needs to focus on more important things.

For the next two hours, the four of them were busy. He Caitou was in charge of assembling the outer shell and interface of the soul guide propulsion core, Huo Yuqin carefully inscribed the stabilizing magic array, Lin You focused on the core part of the Eternal Flame device, and Di Qiu'er was responsible for observing from the side with nothing to do.

"Humans are so strange."

Di Qiu'er muttered under her breath, "She's so talented, yet she spends so much time messing around with these external things."

She yawned. "In the forest, all we need to do is eat, sleep, and occasionally hunt a few soul beasts, and our cultivation will naturally improve."

Upon hearing her words, He Caitou kindly explained, "It is precisely because humans are inherently weak that they need wisdom and creativity even more. These 'external things' are our pride and our way of survival."

Di Qiu'er seemed to be deep in thought, but quickly regained her haughty expression.

Finally, Lin You completed the carving of the last node. The prototype of the Eternal Flame Device was now on the workbench. It was a metal device resembling a multi-nozzle, with a spherical cavity in the center of the tail, surrounded by a sophisticated soul-guiding circuit, and flames burning quietly inside.

It has two uses. First, it provides secondary energy, which is what we are testing now. Second, it has its main function: a flamethrower.

"Ready for the test."

Lin You took a deep breath. "Senior Brother, Huo Yuqin, and Di Qiu'er, all of you step back a little."

The three retreated to a safe distance. Lin You extended his right hand, palm up, a tiny flame of phosphorus element dancing in his palm. The flame glowed with an eerie blue-green light, extremely hot yet not burning Lin You's skin.

Lin You carefully guided the flame into the cavity in the center of the device, while simultaneously activating the surrounding soul guidance circuits with his mental power. Instantly, the device flickered with a faint light, and the flame was trapped in the spherical cavity, slowly rotating and gradually becoming stable.

"We did it!" Huo Yuchen cheered.

However, at that moment, the device suddenly emitted a piercing buzz, the flame in the center expanded violently, and the blue-green light became extremely dazzling, causing Lin You's expression to change slightly.

Holy crap, if this thing explodes, with my athletic physique, I'll be skinned alive!
He Caitou reacted quickly, pulling Huo Yuqin towards the door, but Di Qiu'er remained unmoved and instead walked towards the device.

"It's just fire! I'll handle it!"

Di Qiu'er was full of confidence. She was an imperial auspicious beast with the ultimate fire attribute. How could a mere human creation possibly stump her?

"Then you'd better be careful, you've tested my fire before." Facing the ever-expanding flames, Lin You did not back down either.

Are you kidding me? The owner of phosphorus would fear his own creation?

Di Qiu'er strode confidently toward the expanding blue-green flame, extending her slender fingers. Disdain gleamed in her golden pupils. She was an imperial beast who controlled ultimate fire; how could a mere human creation possibly defeat her? "Ultimate fire, heed my command!"

Di Qiu'er's body surged with energy, and a scorching wave spread forward, attempting to suppress the ever-expanding soul-guided flame. However, a strange scene unfolded: the blue-green flame was not suppressed but instead became even more violent, with its tongues licking outwards, and a pungent odor spreading outwards.

"How can this be?"

Di Qiu'er's confidence vanished, replaced by incredulous shock. "Why can't I control it?"

Lin You stepped forward from behind her and gently pushed her aside. "This is not an ordinary flame, but a phosphorus flame. It does not belong to any natural element system in essence, but is a special state of matter."

He opened his right hand, his five fingers slightly bent, and his mental energy extended out like threads, wrapping around the raging flames. As the mental energy penetrated, the flames gradually slowed down until they stopped completely.

"Phosphorus fire inherently possesses the characteristic of self-combustion, and with the catalysis of the soul guidance circuit, its behavior pattern has completely deviated from the category of natural flames."

After Lin You used his elemental power to extinguish it, he quickly adjusted several nodes on the device with his left hand, explaining, "That's why your ultimate fire couldn't affect it."

Di Qiu'er stood to the side, her golden eyes wide with disbelief as she watched Lin You effortlessly control the flame that had left her helpless just seconds before. As an imperial auspicious beast with ultimate fire attributes, she felt defeated for the first time.

"This is the first time I've ever seen flames that I can't control," she muttered, her tone tinged with a hint of defiance, but mostly with curiosity.

Lin You focused on his work and didn't look up. "Everyone has their own area of ​​expertise, it's just that I have a bit too many areas of expertise."

A tiny bit, jpg
After some adjustments, the Eternal Flame Device finally returned to normal. Lin You breathed a sigh of relief and beckoned the tense Huo Yuzhen and He Caitou back.

"The situation has stabilized."

Lin You wiped the sweat from his forehead. "Now we can proceed with the second phase of testing—the energy cycle test."

He Caitou, still shaken, walked back to the workbench. Although he had witnessed the explosion of soul tools before, the energy fluctuations of Lin You's device clearly exceeded the range of ordinary soul tools. "Little You, are you sure you're safe?"

Lin You nodded, then activated the soul guidance circuit on the device. Instantly, the flames in the spherical cavity became brighter, but instead of expanding, they pulsated rhythmically, like a beating heart. The soul guidance circuits around the device lit up with blue light, forming a complete cycle.

"Look!"

Lin You pointed to the bottom of the device, where a simple soul-guided measuring instrument was connected. The readings on it were steadily increasing. "Energy is being generated and circulating!"

Huo Yuchen clapped his hands excitedly: "We did it! Brother You, you really did it!"

He Caitou stared in disbelief at the readings on the measuring instrument. As a Soul Master, he knew exactly what this meant: a Soul Guidance Device that could operate autonomously without the Soul Master providing Soul Power!

This completely breaks the ironclad rule that soul tools must be attached to soul masters!
"This...this is unbelievable!"

He Caitou's voice trembled, "A self-circulating energy system...this means that ordinary people can also use soul tools!"
