Don't try to cultivate immortality; mortals live longer than immortals.

"The display and detection of these environmental values ​​can provide you with reminders and warnings in the first instance, and provide corresponding solutions through AI calculations."

"Even some low-level formations inevitably have spiritual energy dissipation. The nano spiritual energy value detector has been optimized to address this characteristic. It can also provide early warnings to remind the host not to enter the traps set by the enemy."

Duan Xuan was taken aback.

That's incredible!

Originally, I thought that this thing could display the combat power of the attacking cultivators, which was already quite remarkable and a great help. I never expected that it would integrate so many functions, making it far more powerful and practical than I had initially imagined.

In short, it's absolutely fantastic!

At this moment, Duan Xuan somewhat understood the meaning of what the instructor had said earlier: their greatest reliance when facing cultivators from the Azure Sky Realm was not magic weapons or talismans, but various technological equipment and weapons.

Because the other party also has the former, even if the equipment provided by the Immortal Alliance is better, the difference is not significant in essence, as the other party will be very familiar with it.

On the contrary, these technological devices precisely targeted the opponent's blind spots, with a wide variety of uses that the cultivators there were still unfamiliar with...

In this way, it can completely turn stone into gold, and at critical moments, it can even turn the tide.

"By the way, host, do you need me to take over the function of this nano-spiritual energy value detector?"

"You'll take over?"

"Yes!" Lingyun seemed very excited, even a little proud, and said with great pride, "Although this thing has good functions, the one that the Immortal Alliance gave you is, after all, only the most basic simplified version."

"It is equipped with a simplified version of the psionic chip at the 0.01 nanometer level, and the computing speed is only 10 to the power of 21 per second. Fortunately, the basic functions are complete, supporting psionic and digital dual-modal computing. The caching function is so-so, but it can be considered acceptable."

"And once I take over, the improvement will be extraordinary. First, I will open up a shared database for you, so that this device, as a connection terminal, can provide you with a massive amount of data on cultivators, demons, and even various rare and precious materials."

"Secondly, although its hardware is only average, I can greatly improve its basic performance by at least 30% through special overclocking methods."

"If we're lucky, there might even be more. In short, both its processing speed and detection and early warning capabilities will become more sensitive and accurate."

"For example, when the enemy attacks, its warning range is originally 5 kilometers. With some effort, I can at least expand its effective warning range to a radius of 7 to 8 kilometers with you as the center."

"And also..."

"Alright, Lingyun, I'll leave this matter to you."

Before the girl could finish speaking, Duan Xuan interrupted her. There was nothing to hesitate about; the system was bound to him, so why couldn't he trust it, especially with so many benefits to come.

If given the chance, of course I'll try to curry favor with a powerful figure.

"Don't worry, host. The modified nano-spiritual energy detector, which I have taken over, will definitely far exceed your expectations and become a great help in this adventure."

Lingyun was happy to receive Duan Xuan's trust, feeling that their relationship had deepened.

In this way, a solid foundation was laid for the future removal of constraints.

Just then, Zhou Ran's voice came through: "Ah Xuan, let me see how much combat power you have right now?"

Duan Xuan was greatly alarmed.

As the owner of a true Heavenly Spiritual Root, he has already cultivated to the peak of Qi Refining. If his true realm is seen through by the other party, how should he explain it?

However, it was too late to stop him; Zhou Ran had already conducted the probe.

Then came a burst of shouts: "Hey, not bad, Ah Xuan, combat power 50 points. According to the database, that's already reached the median of Qi Refining Level 7. If I remember correctly, your spiritual root aptitude isn't that great. How did you manage to do all this?"

"Only 50 points?"

Duan Xuan was slightly surprised, but at the same time he secretly breathed a sigh of relief. His secret had not been exposed. What was going on?

"Don't worry, host. I've activated the shielding function. The other party can't see your real data using this nano-spiritual energy value detector."

Lingyun's voice reached my ears from the side, carrying a hint of smugness.

She is the main AI of Water Cloud Star, possessing almost all permissions and incredibly powerful computing capabilities. Hacking into such a rudimentary device would be a piece of cake for her.

It was effortless, and from Lingyun's perspective, she naturally wouldn't allow the host's secrets to be exposed.

"I see, Yun'er, thank you."

"Yun'er?"

This sudden address startled Lingyun. In an instant, an indescribable feeling washed over her, as if a spark had been thrown into the core code, causing the normally orderly data flow to become inexplicably chaotic. For a moment, the girl was somewhat dazed.

Fortunately, she reacted quickly and didn't let Duan Xuan notice anything unusual about her voice. She smiled and said, "It's nothing, it's nothing. It's just a small matter, host, don't worry about it."

Duan Xuan didn't notice the problem: "By the way, what is my true combat strength?"

"True combat strength..."

Lingyun had regained her composure by this time: "Wait a moment, let me check."

"Well, the median combat power of Qi Refining Level 10 is 120, with a fluctuation range of 96 to 144. However, since you are a True Heavenly Spiritual Root user, according to my estimation, you should be able to exceed this number and reach a value of 165."

"Only 165cm?"

Duan Xuan was clearly not very satisfied.

Seeing his aggrieved and disgusted expression, Lingyun was both amused and exasperated: "Host, don't be so dissatisfied. You're really taking your blessings for granted."

"It should be understood that at the same level, every bit of improvement in combat power is extremely difficult, and the resulting differences are also very obvious."

"Don't think that a combat power of 165 is too low. It's enough for you to face two or even three cultivators of the same level."

"Wow, that's so exaggerated, is it true? It's only increased by a few dozen points."

Duan Xuan's worry turned to joy. His expression was still somewhat doubtful, but then he thought that the system wouldn't lie to him. So he smiled and said to Ling Yun, "Yun'er, help me detect Zhou Ran's combat strength."

"Zhou Ran's combat power is 62 points, which is not bad. As expected of the owner of the silly spiritual root, he is already close to the ceiling of the seventh level of Qi Refining."

Lingyun thoughtfully provided some reference data at this point. (The median combat power of a Qi Refining Level 7 cultivator is 50 points, with a fluctuation range of 38~65.)
