Chapter 470: Improved Communication Formation
Liu Yiyi paused for a moment, then continued, "We named this thing the Nascent Soul Processor, but its shortcomings are too obvious.
Just to provide energy for this Nascent Soul, a fourth-level spiritual vein is required.
At the same time, the normal activation of the fourth-level communication formation also requires a fourth-level spiritual vein.
In other words, to maintain this improved version of the fourth-level communication formation, two fourth-level spirit veins are required, which is too much of a consumption.
What's more, the demon baby we collected only has two hundred years left to live. After two hundred years, its life will come to an end. At that time, we will have to replace it with another demon baby, and a demon baby is also very valuable.
Moreover, I speculate that if it is allowed to process so much information at the same time every day, it will probably only take a few decades for this demon baby to develop a new consciousness.
So we also need to erase its consciousness regularly, which is really troublesome.
“Although this new communication formation can indeed allow tens of thousands of people to use communication tokens at the same time, its actual effect is not great.
Baiyun City is so small, how could there be so many people who can afford to buy tokens?
The minimum cost of making a fourth-level communication token is one hundred high-quality spirit stones, and few people are willing to buy it.
What's more, the more people use it, the more energy the formation consumes, which is not cost-effective at all.
Although each of the current communication formations can only be used by thirty people, the consumption is relatively small.
Even if it is arranged on a fourth-level spiritual vein, it will not affect other formations on this fourth-level spiritual vein.
However, this improved communication formation requires two fourth-level spirit veins to supply it. It consumes a lot of energy and has no benefits, which is a thankless task.
So we are not in a hurry to tell you the good news. I have already changed my research project.
I think the spacecraft can be improved. Our current spacecraft is still too slow. I saw in physics that..."
Wang Bin couldn't suppress the joy on his face. He never expected that in just a few years, Liu Yiyi and the others would be able to combine formations, refining, and knowledge of mathematics, physics, and chemistry to create a new communication formation.
She is truly my good wife. I also want to study her, but I have never had the time. I still need to learn about refining equipment and formations. Women are not all just pretty girls.
Wang Bin held Liu Yiyi's little face and took several bites of it. He said excitedly:
"Yiyi, you and Tianqing have done a great job this time!
You continue to study the communication array and improve it so that it can transmit messages farther, allow more people to communicate at the same time, and even better, enable multiple people to chat at the same time.
Haha, if you are too busy, you can find some assistants to help you in the secret realm.
You have made great contributions this time, and you must continue to work hard in this area.
As your husband, I will definitely make your Yin Kui spirit body evolve into a Sky Fox spirit body in the future.
The concentration of the Heavenly Fox bloodline in your body is too low now, and the chances of you breaking through to the God Transformation stage are too small.
And the damage to your foundation during childbirth is not a problem. After you give birth, I will help you restore your foundation!"
Wang Bin was so happy that he made many promises to Liu Yiyi and kept encouraging her to continue studying the communication system.
Liu Yiyi still retained the mindset of an immortal cultivator and did not understand the importance of controlling a region's communication system.
In fact, the amount of spirit stones earned from this communication system alone is an astronomical figure.
Not to mention that it can also monitor the entire area covered by the communication formation, obtain all kinds of information it wants, and even spread its own ideas to strengthen its rule.
In the long run, it can also play a controlling role in the economy, etc. The benefits are really too numerous.
In Wang Bin's opinion, these were just two level four spirit veins and a Nascent Soul. These things were nothing at all.
Once everyone gets used to using communication tokens, I can start building the largest trading mall in the world of immortal cultivation.
Even with further research, it might be possible to establish a virtual universe in the world of immortal cultivation. Of course, this is just Wang Bin's beautiful expectation for the future.
He felt that combining the essence of knowledge from both worlds might not be impossible.
So, Wang Bin called Liu Yiyi and Chu Tianqing over and asked them to demonstrate the new communication formation to him.
Both women were pregnant, and Wang Bin helped out. The three of them worked for two days before the new communication formation was finally built.
Fortunately, both of them are at least Jindan realm masters, so this little bit of fatigue is nothing to them.
At this moment, Chu Tianqing raised a question: "Husband, if there are really tens of thousands of people using a communication formation at the same time, how can they find each other?
To achieve the effect you mentioned where everyone can find everyone else, do we still have to imprint our mental power on the communication token as before?
But if a person has many friends, the communication token can't be branded with the spiritual imprints of so many people!"
This problem was really simple for Wang Bin. Someone had already thought of a solution. After thinking about it for a while, Wang Bin came up with a coordinated approach.
“We divide communication tokens into two tiers.
The first one is called Wang’s Thousand-Mile Sound Transmission Order, which can be made with second-level refining materials.
Due to material limitations, it can only transmit sound within a thousand miles, so we can set the price lower.
The other one is made of fourth-level materials and is called Wang's Wanli Sound Transmission Order. It can transmit sound within a range of more than 10,000 miles around Baiyun City.
This will solve the problem that most people cannot afford it.
As for how many spirit stones it sells for, let me think... Wang's Thousand Mile Sound Transmission Order sells for one hundred mid-grade spirit stones, and then charges a maintenance fee of one mid-grade spirit stone per year.
For every hundred words of information conveyed, he would receive one low-grade spirit stone. This price was affordable for most foundation-building cultivators.
The Wang family's Wanli Sound Transmission Order sells for 10,000 mid-grade spirit stones, and charges an annual maintenance fee of 100 mid-grade spirit stones. For every 100 words of information transmitted, one mid-grade spirit stone is charged. This price is not expensive for Jindan and Yuanying cultivators."
“As for the problem of not being able to use spiritual imprints when there are too many people, it’s actually not difficult to solve.
We can carve a small formation on the sound transmission token. We can contact the sound transmission token by simply inputting a specific frequency. This specific frequency is replaced by a number.
For example, on this token of mine, we have engraved these ten number keys on it.
Every cultivator who uses the Wang family's voice transmission order has his own unique fixed number. We can notify the other party by simply pressing the corresponding fixed number.
Once the other party agrees, communication can begin.
Your new communication array doesn't have this function. You can improve it. It shouldn't be difficult."
Liu Yiyi and Chu Tianqing both nodded. Suddenly, Chu Tianqing exclaimed:
"Wait, if we sell 10,000 fourth-level sound transmission tokens, wouldn't that be 100 million mid-grade spirit stones?
Each token can charge a maintenance fee of one hundred medium-grade spirit stones every year, plus spirit stones are charged for every communication. How many spirit stones can be earned in total?
Isn't this just like sitting at home and counting money? It turns out this communication system is so profitable. No wonder my husband is so happy.
But will anyone really buy it?"
"Ah! Yes! It's so profitable! This..."
Liu Yiyi also reacted and after thinking about it carefully, it seemed that it was indeed very profitable.
She frowned and thought for a moment, then explained:
“Someone must have bought it, especially cultivators from foundation-building families and independent cultivators.
Take our Wang family for example, most of the family members don’t have communication tokens.
In the past, a communication array could only be equipped with thirty communication tokens. Since my husband attaches great importance to the communication system,
Only two fourth-level communication formations and three third-level communication formations were deployed, with a total of 150 communication tokens, half of which were occupied by Wang Xiuyuan's intelligence agency.
This resulted in most people in the family not having any communication tokens available.
This is the case for a powerful family like our Wang family, not to mention other small families."
"Even if it's a foundation-building family, they should at least buy us two Thousand Mile Sound Transmission Tokens, one to be placed at the family residence, and one for the clan leader or clan members who are out on missions.
Not to mention the Jindan and Yuanying families, which cultivator doesn’t have a few friends and relatives?
There was nothing we could do before because we didn’t have the voice transmission token. Now all our friends have bought one, but you don’t have one. What do you feel?
Moreover, the price set by my husband is indeed not expensive. Our Wang family controls a sea area with a large amount of mineral resources. We have no shortage of production materials. We only need some refiners to refine the tokens.
However, Baiyun City alone certainly cannot sell such a large quantity. After all, the price is still a bit high, unless... "
