There's something wrong with me

Chapter 203 Characteristics of 'High-Dimensional Replication'

'A sky full of immortals and gods...'

'What is Daoist rhythm? Could it be the extraordinary phenomena recorded in ancient texts?'

'Strange phenomenon? Isn't that just a legend? It's said that when immortals descend to earth, they are greeted by celestial music and a host of earth gods...'

Several people in the hall exchanged surprised whispers.

I figured Zhang Feng wouldn't be able to hear that.

In reality, Zhang Feng was eavesdropping in the secret room.

Because their spiritual transmission is generated by the vibration of spiritual energy, rather than by the conduction of neurons.

Given this vibration frequency, Zhang Feng, as a 'master of overclocking' and well-versed in human physiology, could naturally deduce what they were saying.

Of course, the analysis of spiritual energy overclocking is relatively more complicated.

Fortunately, Zhang Feng listened for a while, and when he heard that they weren't saying anything bad about him, he stopped listening.

after that.

Zhang Feng was thinking about something, because the Imperial Preceptor had brought more than just an invitation and a book.

Instead, they brought a large box containing historical records.

These were all gifts for myself, because they were kept outside the secret room.

It's estimated that the Imperial Advisor and his entourage sent the gifts over to the Prefect and his men as soon as they arrived.

now.

Zhang Feng scanned the area with his spiritual sense and saw that most of them were surrounding one person: 'Zuo Ci'.

Zhang Feng must have heard of Zuo Ci and knew him.

In the fictionalized version of Romance of the Three Kingdoms, which is not part of official history, he is a genuine 'deity'.

But it was precisely seeing him that reminded him of the historical record about Nascent Soul cultivators that the Imperial Preceptor had given him.

This must be because the emperor, considering his youth and high strength, wanted to win him over and thus presented him with books related to the Nascent Soul stage as a gift.

These were easy to guess.

Zhang Feng was particularly interested in this period of history.

Because it is different from the official history that I am familiar with, it gives me a very peculiar feeling.

Furthermore, in the official history I know, there are also 'Qi cultivators' who existed only during the Qin Dynasty.

This "refining" refers to the process of refining elixirs.

But in this world, there are 'Qi cultivators'.

Zhang Feng became increasingly curious and continued looking, his spiritual sense sweeping across the Qin Dynasty and Three Kingdoms-related items inside the box.

Finally, Zhang Feng came to a conclusion.

The cultivation methods in this world began in the Qin Dynasty and reached their peak during the Three Kingdoms period.

If there is a 'turning point' in this world similar to those in the past, it should begin with the Qin Dynasty, and then, in a way that is somewhat consistent with history, it will lead to the Three Kingdoms period.

Although there are still familiar figures from the Three Kingdoms period in this world, there are no small historical scenes such as "Three Heroes Battle Lü Bu" or "Eighteen Warlords".

In Zhang Feng's view, it was a chaotic war of cultivators with Cao Cao, Liu Bei, and Sun Quan vying for power.

Among them, Cao Cao was the most powerful, and then he encountered the Battle of Red Cliffs, which is somewhat consistent with the historical process, and ultimately he was wiped out in one battle.

After that, everything changed completely, and the war became even more chaotic.

The chaos was so great that Sima Yi never appeared, nor did the Jin Dynasty, which was associated with him, emerge. There were no subsequent Northern and Southern Dynasties, Sui and Tang Dynasties, and so on. The Shang Dynasty appeared directly.

The formation of the Shang Dynasty is also quite interesting.

Zhang Feng looked at the early Shang Dynasty and discovered that the earliest Shang Dynasty was formed by a group of Golden Core cultivators who had survived a great war. They then supported a person with the so-called "True Dragon Qi" and slowly tried to unify the country.

This "true dragon aura" is, without a doubt, a complete fabrication.

Because Zhang Feng knew that there was no such thing as destiny or fate in this world.

Therefore, it can be ignored and there is no need to worry about it.

After that, Zhang Feng saw this group of cultivators leading this person and began to wage war and win over people on all sides, which was a complete replica of the "vertical and horizontal alliances" of the Warring States period.

During the multi-party war, there was another wave of tactical battles where no one would submit to another, causing the magic system to 'fall apart' once again.

In Zhang Feng's view, this was a chaotic world where everyone wanted to be the boss after the law had been lifted from the constraints of force.

Fortunately, it ended up being a relatively satisfactory outcome.

At least for now, things seem quite peaceful.

But Zhang Feng also knew that if the Imperial Preceptor and a group of top imperial guards passed away, and no new cultivators joined them, the situation would be dire.

Once the balance between government restrictions and civilian armed forces is restored, history will repeat itself.

As for the reasons, Zhang Feng felt there were too many to list.

In short, it's like saying, "I always feel like I've given a lot and I'm quite capable, but I haven't received much in return. I want more."

As a cultivator, Zhang Feng felt the same way.

Because I am constantly learning, I always feel that I know too little.

That's why he came up with the idea of ​​unifying the world and conquering the stars.

Furthermore, in the world of cultivators, the fundamental way to obtain more is to first unify everyone, and then one will likely be able to get what one wants.

This is a traditional historical event that was bound to happen.

Of course, if we're talking about the Qin Emperor in official history seeking immortality, then he certainly didn't achieve it.

However, as long as resources are unified and all resources are used to seek immortality, it will definitely be faster than if one person were to do it alone.

According to official history, it's basically impossible for a normal person to achieve immortality.

After all, in ancient times, leaving a village or city was not so easy.

Taking the Qin Dynasty as an example, Shang Yang's reforms established a strict household registration system and prohibited people from migrating.

The movement of villagers is also subject to strict restrictions and management; a 'pass' is required to leave the village.

Even if you get the permit, if you encounter some dangerous bandits or wild beasts on the way, it's all over.

However, the Qin Emperor was able to easily organize a fleet and find the alchemist Xu Fu, sending a large army to Penglai to search for immortals.

There is always a way, and resources can be easily mobilized to take effective action.

In particular, if there really are immortals in Penglai, then perhaps they can truly live forever.

For ordinary people to cross the sea to Penglai, they need difficult-to-obtain documents, as well as the training and recruitment of guards along the way.

Next, we need to figure out how to build and purchase large transoceanic ships, and how to communicate with officials on the coast to get them to allow passage.

Only at the very end did they encounter the navigational knowledge and related navigational issues that were lacking in ancient times.

Each step is not so simple.

However, the 'summary and lessons' of all past historical outcomes also told Zhang Feng that unification was absolutely necessary.

Zhang Feng was good at learning from mistakes and absorbing the experience of his predecessors.

There is a famous saying that the only lesson mankind learns from history is that mankind learns nothing from history.

But that statement is too abstract.

If we truly cannot learn, humanity will never progress and will remain in the Stone Age.

But in fact, humans are constantly evolving.

The more Zhang Fengxue learned, the more he realized that many people liked to mystify things.

Some famous sayings are like feng shui, focusing on ambiguity, talking about things that normal people would experience, then letting people identify with them, and finally regarding the other person as a confidant, ultimately creating spiritual resonance and spiritual exhaustion.

In Zhang Feng's view, superior feng shui is actually the other party's doubly crushing him in terms of both emotional intelligence and IQ.

Zhang Feng is a pragmatic person who spends his days learning new knowledge.

Feng shui and stuff like that.

Zhang Feng no longer believes in anything except himself and those who exceed his standards, such as Chen Tiancai and his ilk.

They are single-minded and have absolutely no internal conflicts, nor are they swayed by external factors.

Zhang Feng believes this is the ultimate form of liver knowledge.

In Wang Shege's words, 'This is fucking a machine!'

And it also made me think about studying.

Zhang Feng suddenly had an idea and wanted to visit the ruins of the Three Kingdoms' Red Cliff.

This allows one to infer the combat strength of a Nascent Soul cultivator and indirectly deepen one's understanding of Nascent Souls.

Zhang Feng had never been to the western part of the adventure world, in particular.

It's a good opportunity to travel around the world and take a look.

Let's see if there's any magic involved.

……

Less than two days.

Zhang Feng walked in a straight line, stopping and starting, circling the world and taking a general look at some training methods from abroad.

In short, they are still practicing Qi cultivation; they are 'primitive cultivators'.

Furthermore, on the Western side, there are also more than a dozen Eastern Golden Core masters who are 'dominating' the world.

Zhang Feng didn't care about these people.

Anyway, once the Shang Dynasty expands its territory further, global unification can be achieved.

There were enough golden elixirs in the Shang Dynasty, roughly half the amount available during the Three Kingdoms period.

With so many people, there's bound to be some ideas.

Zhang Feng didn't care about these things; he was simply collecting data on these people's disciples while passing through the West.

Learn what's useful, and block out what's useless.

And the size of this planet is similar to that of reality.

This proves that all known adventure worlds currently exist in the form of 'Earth'.

There haven't been many changes, including in some oceans and on land.

Although this proof is not very useful.

But since it was along the way, I made a note of it, thinking it might be useful in the future.

After all, geological formations, as well as changes in continents and weather, are also part of astronomy and geography.

Learning more about the astronomy and geography of different planets and comparing it with one's own studies can never hurt. Zhang Feng has always held this belief and has been constantly learning.

After his inner demons dissipated, Zhang Feng began to digest the 'knowledge base of various disciplines' in the superconducting world, as well as most of the 'human body function data' and 'virtual neuroscience' knowledge that he had not yet digested in reality.

In this process of taking stock and digesting information.

Over the past two days, Zhang Feng's physical constitution has increased by 0.9, which is due to a slight adjustment to the distribution of his internal energy and the structure of his spiritual energy, making them more solid and reasonable.

Furthermore, my understanding of neurons has deepened slightly, allowing my spiritual awareness to expand by about 3 meters.

It may sound like very little, but if you study like this every day...

Over time, this will accumulate into a considerable amount of wealth and strength.

Furthermore, the knowledge acquired does not affect one's daily routine of increasing physical fitness (100% overclocking and the operation of internal energy and spiritual energy).

It's just stacking them on top of each other.

Zhang Feng even thought that perhaps before he reached the Nascent Soul stage, his strength would already be at the Nascent Soul level by this world's standards.

Because Zhang Feng went to the Chibi ruins specifically to see them, and based on the spirit talisman warships on the seabed and the traces of the battle on them, he made a rough calculation.

The Left Celestial Master, Zuo Ci, possessed a spiritual range of 'thirty li'.

His cultivation level should be at the early stage of Nascent Soul, because he severed his heart not long after breaking through.

And I am currently twenty li and one hundred and twenty-four meters.

All things considered, they are only ten miles apart in terms of spiritual awareness.

As for the power of magic.

To achieve the same level of destruction as Master Zuo's East Wind and Fire, one must understand the extent to which the ship would be burned.

If I deepen my knowledge of fire and wind attributes, I can now destroy spirit talisman warships within a radius of thirty miles.

Theoretically speaking, he may still appear to be a 'small half-step' Nascent Soul cultivator, but in terms of strength, he is already infinitely close to the 'minor completion of Nascent Soul'.

Especially within a twenty-mile radius of spiritual awareness, he possesses the ability to store a large amount of spiritual energy using his own physical constitution and to simultaneously draw a thousand talismans in 0.1 seconds.

Even a true Nascent Soul cultivator at the early stage would be defeated by her powerful firepower and ultimately flee in a sorry state.

Because of the traces of magic found on the warship.

Zhang Feng felt that his magic was a level below his own.

If we consider the number of strokes in the talisman, Zuo Ci's talisman should have 4.6 strokes.

Currently, I can draw a hurricane and a gathering of water in 5 strokes.

Of course, at present, I have only deduced up to '3' talismans in reality.

However, in terms of optimization, the quality of these 3 strokes is even higher than Zuo Ci's 4.6 strokes.

However, this does not mean that I am more talented or have better comprehension than others.

Instead, they cleverly used big data and the virtual world, along with data from nearly 100 million players worldwide, as well as the computing power of various researchers, superconductors, and virtual buildings.

If all of this combined still doesn't surpass the level of a nascent Golden Core cultivator world, then there's really a problem.

Of course, Zuo Ci was indeed strong, having attained the Nascent Soul stage on his own and being able to draw talismans with 4.6 strokes.

This cannot be denied.

They really exceeded the limit, comparable to the number of guests.

Since he exceeded the limit, he must have copied it himself.

Traces such as the warships on the seabed allowed Zhang Feng to deduce some of the original forms of the talismans.

Although it has been too long to replicate completely, it can still serve as a partial storage of knowledge.

At the same time, it is also based on comparisons of various data.

Zhang Feng felt that given his current abilities, if he were to encounter Master Zuo Ci, he would be in serious trouble.

Getting rid of him is absolutely no problem.

Because, as I said before, I have already achieved a large amount of spiritual energy storage and optimized the absolute firepower suppression of the talismans.

But killing him is probably out of the question.

After all, he could only know the approximate attack strength of a Nascent Soul cultivator based on the wreckage of the warship, but he could not deduce the defensive strength of a Nascent Soul cultivator.

Without knowing the defense, and under the 'high-dimensional defense' rules of the Nascent Soul.

This is an unknown.

As for 'high-dimensional attack', it refers to the damage to warships and the casting of large-scale 'high-dimensional deployment' spells.

Zhang Feng himself can draw over a thousand talismans simultaneously, which is also a type of high-dimensional attack.

In reality, Zhang Feng simply used ten spiritual thoughts to draw ten talismans, which were then expanded in a higher dimension to directly become a thousand identical talismans.

Just like a two-dimensional 'cube paper', if it were to become three-dimensional, it would necessarily be a three-dimensional cube with six faces.

Conversely, a six-sided three-dimensional cube, if placed on a two-dimensional flat piece of paper, and if you want to express the cube in detail, will inevitably unfold into six flat pieces of paper.

This is the attack pattern of a higher dimension against a lower dimension.

Zhang Feng has now mastered this most basic high-dimensional attack, which is the 'copy and unfold' of ten into a thousand.

The specific process involves drawing a talisman on one side of a two-dimensional cube, which means drawing a talisman within the current world.

Then, corresponding to the three dimensions, the three dimensions are enhanced (the Golden Core rules are copied), so that there are talismans on all six sides, and finally it is thrown into the current two-dimensional world.

This is an absolutely unreasonable and overwhelming barrage of firepower.

Furthermore, this high level of replication inevitably leads to a qualitative change in the attack.

However, it involves principles related to formations and balance, wind direction, dynamics, and so on.

All of this knowledge enhances combat effectiveness.

Therefore, Zhang Feng is currently digesting the relevant knowledge about the superconducting world and reality.

Although these do not include four-dimensional knowledge, they contribute to the overall increase in combat power.

This is a very large formula for calculating combat power.

For example, 1+2=3.

2 represents high dimension; the higher the dimension, the higher the cardinality.

1. One's own strength. The higher one's strength, the more talismans one can cast.

Knowledge, on the other hand, refers to all the multiplications in the formula '1+2=3'.

……

Another day passed.

Zhang Feng returned to the government office in Hengcheng.

Furthermore, based on the National Preceptor's 1.1K physique, the normal Golden Core cultivator's 900~1K physique, and the warship ruins, etc.

Zhang Feng determined the approximate physique of a Nascent Soul cultivator to be around 2K to 2.2K.

I can kill him because 2.2K is only 100 more stamina than me.

It should be able to break through the defense.

Including those below 2.4K, Zhang Feng estimated that their physical strength should be enough to drive them away.

If it exceeds 2.4K, or if the Nascent Soul has other strange abilities, or if the defense is further strengthened.

Zhang Feng felt that he had enough knowledge to easily escape from him.

For the nascent soul that has deepened further into four dimensions.

Besides curiosity, Zhang Feng also felt a great sense of awe.

This reverence stems from the exploration and yearning for higher knowledge.

……

Early the next morning.

The Imperial Advisor was unaware that Senior Zhang had traveled around the world a couple of days ago and analyzed many people and events from hundreds of years ago.

Such a level of computation, or rather, the frequency of his thoughts, was beyond his comprehension.

But this is also due to the 0.2 thinking enhancement within Zhang Fengyou's entry.

With such analytical ability, one must be able to digest knowledge and explore higher-dimensional knowledge.

The Imperial Advisor knew nothing; on the contrary, he thought Zhang Feng had been in seclusion for a few days.

Little did they know, Zhang Feng had become even more knowledgeable.

The unique high-dimensional replication and high-dimensional expansion of the Golden Elixir.

Zhang Feng is now even more at ease.

If he could command the wind and rain again...

Zhang Feng felt that the casting time could be reduced by 20%.

Zuo Ci's remains at the Battle of Red Cliffs brought Zhang Feng many insights.

It is a 'quick spell-binding' method within this world.

Of course, there are no talismans in this world; instead, spells are cast directly from the combination of spiritual energy and the golden core.

Zhang Fengxue learned this combination method and optimized his talismans.

Because the 'direct spellcasting' of the Golden Core cannot be quantified in reality without a large base number.

However, as a technology that can be observed, talismans can be optimized globally.

Furthermore, the combination of talismans and formations is more in line with the structural principles of spiritual energy, and currently, its power is superior to the simple combination of golden core and spiritual energy.

Basically, it's about trying to do both.

The entire reality can be considered a talisman, and Zhang Feng can also be considered a talisman.

The principles of the Golden Elixir and the principles of spiritual energy—I'll first grasp them on my own.

We should strive to advance on both ends and improve our fundamental system to a greater extent.

This includes the individual gains from these three days.

In terms of data...

Zhang Feng felt that his combat power had increased by at least 1000%.

While it appears to have optimized casting speed by 20%, it actually doesn't just increase combat power by 20%, but rather provides a faster and more comprehensive attack.

If I saw myself three days ago now, I would be completely outclassed.
