Chapter 204: Chapter 148 Electromagnetism_2

Having returned to the small formation, the isolation effect provided him with a private space.

Of course, if a Golden Core cultivator truly wished to probe, they could forcibly break through the formation. However, doing so would naturally disrupt the formation, and it would openly invade the privacy of juniors.

At least, with Yin Shilan’s influence, the Golden Cores here wouldn’t engage in such behavior.

Li Shiming found it inadvisable to summon his avatar here to assist with his cultivation since the action of summoning an avatar was rather conspicuous and could easily be discovered.

His consciousness entered the engine room space, where there lay a long tube. One end of the tube resembled a square, looking from afar like a long sledgehammer.

The tube was a high-grade artifact, for which he had spent eight thousand spirit stones for a custom order from the Hidden Dragon Trading House. Including the other components, all were high-grade artifacts. The total value of the tube and the square alone exceeded thirty thousand spirit stones.

This price was offered by the Hidden Dragon Trading House as a favor, relinquishing most of their profit.

The IBMz15 had constantly been computing and analyzing the energy system of this weapon. Li Shiming had planned to order more materials for the formation after returning. He had not anticipated obtaining so many formation materials on this mission.

The formation materials he obtained were all strategic resources of his sect. Even if ordered from the Hidden Dragon Trading House, the quantity and quality would be substantially inferior.

Li Shiming’s gaze shifted from the high-grade artifact to an unfinished formation nearby.

The reason this formation remained incomplete was not only due to the lack of materials but more importantly, because the knowledge of formations had reached an advanced level. He didn’t have the clearance to learn advanced formation knowledge from the sect.

That he had this semi-finished formation was thanks to multiple visits to the peak to check the nodes, effectively sneaking a learning of some of the peak’s main node knowledge.

The formation on Seven Star Island also included aspects of the thunder system and, as it needed repairing, was almost completely exposed to him without any concealment.

It could be said that his greatest gains this time, besides unexpectedly advancing to the latter stage of Qi Refinement and acquiring true form transformation, included substantial knowledge about thunder formations.

By this time, the IBMz15 had redrawn a new formation design diagram based on his obtained formation materials and the knowledge he possessed.

Li Shiming only needed to follow the formation design diagram to complete this formation.

One by one, formation materials were taken out, transformed into usable objects by various methods, and installed into the unfinished formation.

The formation slowly took shape from a semi-finished product. A formation that occupied nearly half of the engine room space was successfully arranged.

The nine Second Grade Array Flags were somewhat small, an unavoidable situation given the scarcity of second-grade materials. That he could produce nine Second Grade Array Flags under such constraints was largely thanks to IBMz15’s precise calculations.

Li Shiming took out nine mid-grade spirit stones and placed them within the formation.

Then he divided his consciousness; his avatar stood up in the engine room space, approached the formation, and a stream of spiritual thought acted upon the formation. Subsequently, the formation began to operate.

The sole purpose of this formation was to generate lightning. It was not the previous “Cloud-shocking Thunder Formation” but was considered an advanced formation.

The formation was unnamed, or perhaps it originally had a name, but since he had learned it secretly, he mastered all the relevant knowledge without knowing the formation’s name.

However, this formation was an important part of the Sect Formation’s Shock Peak node of the Sky Sea Sect, and its quality certainly surpassed that of a normal advanced formation.

Of course, due to limitations in materials and space, the formation Li Shiming created had only one percent of the Shock Peak node’s power.

Electric snakes roamed within the formation, starting from one, increasing to two, three, until myriad electric snakes moved within the formation.

“Sourced from Shock Peak’s Thunder Array, let’s name it Shock Thunder Array!” Li Shiming had decided on the name for the formation, although he had no intention of revealing it.

The Shock Thunder Array was arranged successfully. While it occupied a considerable amount of space, the electricity it generated was extremely impressive, a thousand times more than the “Sky-shocking Thunder Array.”

Of course, the engine room space had not arranged the “Sky-shocking Thunder Array.” Even after having the Shock Thunder Array, he still maintained the perpetual motion generator’s existence, simply channeling the electricity from the Shock Thunder Array into the uninterruptible power supply’s input.

The input end is normally disconnected, relying on the perpetual motion generator to suffice for the consumption of the IBM z15.

All of his computational analyses were relatively easy for the IBM z15, and they had not yet reached the point where electric power was insufficient.

The primary function of the Shock Thunder Array was not to power the IBM z15, but to provide energy for a new weapon.

The new weapon was an electromagnetic gun, and the IBM z15’s database contained relevant research materials.

In fact, the principle of the electromagnetic gun was simple, but the biggest problem it encountered was the supply of electricity and the materials’ endurance.

During the process of rapid firing, even the slightest deformation in the barrel could lead to disastrous consequences.

The supply of electricity guaranteed the power and firing speed of the electromagnetic gun.

Li Shiming did not consider the issue of firing speed, as this was ensured by the Mid-grade Magical Weapon Gatling.

When facing a large number of enemies, the six Mid-grade Magical Weapon Gatlings were enough to clear relatively weaker enemies, while the electromagnetic gun he needed was for pinpoint assassination of powerful entities among them.

He even set the strength of the enemies at the Foundation Establishment Stage, his requirement being that the electromagnetic gun could pose a lethal threat to Foundation Establishment Cultivators.

If any cultivator heard his plan, they would certainly think he was mad.

However, Li Shiming had thought deeply about this and had it verified by the IBM z15. Through his encounters and all the accessible data about Foundation Establishment Cultivators, he had a certain standard for judging their strength.

To break through the defense of Foundation Establishment Cultivators, aside from a faster bullet speed, it was the material of the bullets that mattered.

In his former world, bullets for electromagnetic guns were made of solid, high-quality steel, but such bullets were clearly insufficient against the defense of Foundation Establishment Cultivators.

Li Shiming was unable to acquire sufficiently strong materials, which would at least require Second Grade metal, the primary material for making Spiritual Artifacts.

It was impossible for him to bear the cost of consuming a Spiritual Artifact every time the electromagnetic gun was fired; even with his wealth, he could not afford it.

Not to mention, Second Grade metal was unattainable even for the Hidden Dragon Trading House, and within the sect, the exchange price for a piece of Second Grade metal the size of one tael was several times more expensive than a Foundation Establishment Pill.

Li Shiming thought of the Third Grade Sword Base, which he used in his cultivation of the “Sword Demon Secret Manual”. It had a peculiar feature; separated from the body, it could be retrieved by transforming the Third Grade Sword Base into countless tiny particles and returning them to the body.

To an extent, the Third Grade Sword Base was part of his body, as it was infused with his Spirit.

Using the Third Grade Sword Base as bullets and firing them with the electromagnetic gun would mean he did not need to retrieve the bullets after killing the enemy; he just needed to activate the “Sword Demon Secret Manual”, and the bullets would disperse and return to his body on their own.

Most crucially, the Third Grade Sword Base could adjust its shape at will, making it more suitable as bullets for the electromagnetic gun.

The electricity from the Shock Thunder Array could be accumulated, and the electricity bound by the array would increase as time passed.

To ensure that the High Grade Artifact could withstand the impact of lightning forces, Li Shiming meticulously controlled it on a micrometer level, using the Third Grade Sword Base along with Formation materials to inscribe a micro Formation.

This task had been conducted on the Mid-grade Magic Weapon Gatling; although the Formations differed, the processes were essentially routine.

With electricity support, the complexity of the electromagnetic gun significantly reduced, and the remainder of the structure was much simpler.

What he needed to produce were a magnetic flux compressor and an accelerator, with the magnetic flux compressor converting electric power into magnetic energy, and the accelerator converting the electromagnetic energy into projectile kinetic energy.

The Formation designed by the IBM z15 utilized the Formation knowledge of the Cultivation World, enhancing the production of magnetic energy and the conversion of electromagnetic energy into kinetic energy of the bullets more effectively, as well as reinforcing the entire body of the electromagnetic gun.

If Li Shiming could obtain metal from a Super-grade Magical Artifact, he would have used it to manufacture the body of the electromagnetic gun; regrettably, the best metal he currently had access to was from a High Grade Magical Artifact.
