Chapter 526 Starlink: The Heart of Nature

call!

Upon receiving this information, Li Yao breathed a sigh of relief.

Since Scorpion didn't investigate further, the secret of the soul replication array was not exposed.

The Sage of Six Paths could only learn about the ninja world through the memories of souls entering the Pure Land; he dared not use his own power to investigate matters in the ninja world.

As long as the souls of those who know the memories of the soul replication array are prevented from entering the Pure Land after death, the Sage of Six Paths will not know this secret.

Li Yao cannot act against Scorpion yet, because he is unsure whether he can modify the Soul Replication Array into a Soul Replication Array that converts life energy into soul energy. Therefore, Scorpion cannot die yet.

Secondly, although Ye Yi did not know the secrets of the Soul Replication Array, she personally witnessed how Scorpion used the Soul Replication Array to transform into a soul flame life form.

Her soul could not enter the Pure Land, lest the Six Paths Immortals guess it.

However, Ye Yi was somewhat of Li Yao's woman. Although she was a woman he could abandon at any time, there was no need to kill her if she could live.

So Li Yao found Ye Yi and personally left a black hole space sphere inside her body, sealing it in an acupoint space.

Li Yao's chakra consciousness is present above, and it will keep an eye on Ye Yi.

The moment Ye Yi is on the verge of death, the black hole space will immediately erupt, devouring and obliterating Ye Yi's physical body and soul, preventing him from being sucked into the Pure Land space by the Six Paths Sage.

After doing all this, Li Yao took all the data from the soul replication array preserved by his Wind Release clone and retrieved it back to the Divine Might Space.

He didn't touch Scorpion's share.

Otherwise, Scorpion would definitely find out.

However, Li Yao also left a shadow clone in the interlayer to conceal its aura and keep a watchful eye on the situation, preventing anyone from stealing the research data.

Li Yao returned to the Divine Might Space and began studying the Soul Replication Array.

The Soul Replication Array is composed of three puppet seals.

The three puppet seals transform the three energies of spirit, body, and soul respectively. They can exist independently or combine to form a soul replication array, transforming, recombining, and fusing the three energies of spirit, body, and soul into a new soul flame life.

This is the principle behind how scorpions abandon their physical bodies and ascend to heaven mechanically.

Of the three puppet seals, Li Yao was the first to study the puppet seal that transforms the physical body.

This puppet sign can transform all the cells in a person's body into bodily energy, also known as life energy.

Body energy is actually life energy.

Of course, anyone can extract life energy from cells, but the conversion efficiency is not as thorough as the puppet seal researched by Scorpion.

The most crucial element is the transformative and fusion power of the soul replication array formed by the combination of the three puppet seals.

The Soul Replication Array transforms life energy, spiritual energy, and the soul into the form of soul flames.

Although Scorpion's soul has changed into a soul flame form, which is different from the human soul and belongs to a new soul form, it is still a soul.

In other words, life energy is ultimately transformed into soul energy.

The Soul Replication Array consists of three puppet seals.

Li Yaoxian modified the three puppet formations, transforming them into soul energy that could be absorbed by the soul, absorbing only life energy.

It was easy to modify the three puppet seals to only absorb life energy; Li Yao improved them in just one week.

However, the process of transforming life energy into soul energy is progressing slowly.

The Soul Replication Array is a combination of seals; if one of them changes, the result will be very different.

Li Yao can only slowly wear them down.

Fortunately, he now stands at the pinnacle of this world in terms of knowledge about sealing techniques, puppets, various ninjutsu chakra, and even natural energy.

Li Yao was like standing on the shoulders of giants, modifying the soul replication array. Even though the progress was slow, he was constantly improving.

During Li Yao's research on the soul replication array.

After two years of research and preparation, his Puppet Starlink project has finally entered the implementation stage.

The Land of Winds, 20,000 meters above the largest desert.

The Wind Release clone stood in front of a giant puppet heart with a diameter of ten meters.

The Puppet Heart had undergone a major transformation after being modified.

Although it is still round, its surface is incredibly smooth, like a spherical black screen, with ripples appearing on it from time to time as it absorbs natural energy.

The Wind Release clone stood before the Heart of Nature, sensing the natural energy it absorbed, and smiled slightly.

"Excellent, my perception is many times clearer!"

The Heart of Nature, which is the smooth, large black sphere in front of him, is a device created by combining the Heart of the Puppet and the principles of the Cloud-Hidden Microscope.

It can not only absorb and store natural energy, but also amplify the fluctuations of natural energy, allowing people to perceive the special rules within it more clearly.

Moreover, the more natural energy one absorbs and stores, the clearer the natural energy one perceives through the Heart of Nature.

"Mirage of Time - Sealed!"

Li Yaofeng used his clone to press his right hand on the Heart of Nature. As a ripple spread, the Heart of Nature vanished without a trace.

"That way, no one will be able to find it!"

Li Yaofeng smiled as he used his Wind Release clone, regardless of whether it was the Byakugan, Sharingan, or other chakra sensing abilities.

Even if someone flew to this location and passed through the Heart of Nature, they would not be able to touch the Heart of Nature.

Using the sealing technique formed by the mirage of time, the Heart of Nature is hidden in another space-time.

Unless one is a master of space-time ninjutsu, the existence of the Heart of Nature cannot be detected.

No one knows about the existence of the Heart of Nature except Li Yao, and he will not let anyone else know.

Next, every 100 kilometers, in each of the four directions (front, back, left, and right), Li Yaofeng's clones would place a Heart of Nature at an altitude of 20,000 meters.

These Hearts of Nature are interconnected using the radio principles of Cloud Concealment, allowing them to maintain a distance of one hundred kilometers at all times.

As the Heart of Nature is released, it will form a grid pattern, eventually enveloping the entire Ninja World planet.

Of course, this is a huge project.

Achieving this goal will take a long time and require a great deal of natural inspiration.

Fortunately, the entire ninja world was under Li Yao's absolute control.

Throughout the entire ninja world, all the daimyo's residences were controlled by Li Yao's clones using Kotoamatsukami, and would no longer cause any trouble for the ninja villages.

At the same time, it is not only one of the five major hidden villages.

Every small village in the country with ninjas was controlled by Li Yao's clone using Kotoamatsukami.

The entire ninja world is undergoing large-scale development. Various iron ore materials, under the leadership of Li Yao's unified ninja army, are transformed into a continuous stream of puppet materials. These materials are then stored in the Kamui space by Li Yao's clones. The Natural Heart Mechanical Factory puppets, manufactured by Li Yao's shadow clones, mass-produce Natural Hearts like an assembly line.

Then, Li Yao's six clones and his shadow clones spread the coverage of Starlink's Heart of Nature, starting from above the five great nations.

During this period, a clone will remain next to the natural heart of each environment, specifically responsible for perceiving the rules in natural energy.

Meanwhile, within the Divine Might Space, Li Yao has three shadow clones specifically tasked with incantating the fundamental rules perceived and analyzed from natural energy.
