Yang Genshuo entered his own workshop.
He started the mechanical printer, removed the ink cartridge that previously contained "Azure Jade Marrow Ink," and replaced it with a new cartridge filled with "Thunder Crystal Ink."
Next, he took out the "Nine Heavens Mysterious Yellow Paper" and replaced it with "Wind Spirit Gauze Talisman Paper."
Finally, he switched out the "Immortal Crane Feather Pen" inside the mechanical core with an "Immortal Phoenix Pen," recognizing the records of the "Heavenly Mechanism Divine Thunder" Drawing Talisman.
He then placed the finished "Heavenly Mechanism Divine Thunder Talisman," provided by Yang Qiang, into the scanning area.
Everything was ready.
Yang Genshuo's modified mechanical printer started to work!
Scanning, recording each pixel's color and ink information.
Then transferring to the processor to start inkjet printing!
The mechanical core, following the records of the "Immortal Phoenix Pen," synchronized the emission of spiritual power, restoring each dot's concentration of spiritual energy.
After spraying for a moment... the mechanical core went completely dark.
Then it printed out a piece of scrap paper.
Materials -1 portion.
Yang Genshuo checked and found that the ten low-grade spirit stones loaded inside the mechanical core had dimmed and lost their spiritual power.
"Damn! I forgot about the spiritual power. This fourth-grade talisman definitely requires mid-grade spirit stones!"
Yang Genshuo swapped in ten mid-grade spirit stones and started printing again.
This time it worked. The mechanical core was exceptionally bright, and as the spiritual power was jetted out, it released an abundance of spiritual energy, so much so that Yang Genshuo, who was close by, could feel the aura of a powerful being Drawing Talisman!
And as it printed... the mechanical core became brighter and brighter, glowing red hot!
The temperature also rose rapidly...
Suddenly, a sense of danger approached!
"Stone Turtle Shield!"
Yang Genshuo produced a huge shield in his hand, protecting himself. Thᴇ link to the origɪn of this information rᴇsts ɪn NoveI(F)ire.net
Tian Zhe, who was in the courtyard preparing "Qi Blood Powder" for himself, felt the main building of the manor just vibrated.
"...Is Brother Genshuo's cultivation always this loud?"
Then, he took his potion and quietly moved a bit farther away from the building.
"Why did it explode?"
Yang Genshuo crawled out from under the "Stone Turtle Shield," covered in dust and debris, his body flickering with spiritual light. The explosion was defended not only by this high-grade magic artifact but also triggered the protective talismans he had on himself.
The power was evident.
And his mechanical printer had completely turned into a pile of dust, leaving nothing behind.
Mechanical printer -1.
However, fortunately, amidst the dust, there was a talisman, a pen, and ten mid-grade spirit stones intact.
"It's good that this talisman didn't explode, otherwise... my newly bought manor would've been totally ruined."
A fourth-grade talisman exploding here would split the house in two without question.
Yang Genshuo would have to waste a protective talisman worth 1000 mid-grade spirit stones to withstand it.
As for the outside... it would depend on who was luckier.
"The stability of a fourth-grade talisman is strong, it can't explode from external forces if not driven by spiritual power. It appears that the talisman masters are also very cautious."
Otherwise, if someone exploded all the talismans on them during a fight, they'd be done for on the spot.
As for the mid-grade spirit stones, it's normal that they didn't explode. As the universal currency of the Immortal Cultivation World, their most distinctive feature is stability.
And his entire workshop was already fully paved with third-grade spiritual material building blocks. Aside from bringing in spiritual energy, they were also explosion-resistant.
Yang Genshuo recalled the details just before the explosion.
That surging spiritual power, the extremely high temperature, the red-hot mechanical core...
"This first-grade mechanism core couldn't bear such large fluctuations of spiritual power. Moreover, the impact of spiritual power from drawing a fourth-grade talisman caused the internal temperature of the printer to rise sharply. The first-grade 'Cooling Array' I set inside couldn't achieve a cooling effect, resulting in the whole mechanical printer exploding."
Yang Genshuo sat cross-legged on the ground. With his current strength, according to the 'Mechanical Techniques' hierarchy, he was a novice at the first-grade mechanism master level.
His spiritual power at the eighth layer of Fetal Breathing could at most create a 'First-Grade Mechanism Core,' which evidently couldn't handle the task of drawing a fourth-grade talisman.
"I guess it'll need a 'Fourth Grade Mechanism Core' to operate stably; otherwise, it will still blow up."
His 'First-Grade Mechanism Core' exploded, which was not a big deal as the raw materials were cheap, and Hui Ji's storage ring was filled with a bunch of them anyway.
If push came to shove, Yang Genshuo could make it himself.
But he couldn't make a higher rank than that.
Yang Fushuo summoned his spiritual sense into the storage ring, took out two glowing circular devices from beside the broken Wood Ash Swordsman Spirit Puppet.
Bringing them into the workspace, a ray of light swept out, and the whole room was tinged with spiritual light.
"Hui Ji at the Golden Core Stage took so many years to make just two 'Fourth Grade Mechanism Cores,' used to power his Golden Core Stage Spirit Puppets. I wonder when I'll be able to make them..."
The 'Fourth Grade Mechanism Core' issue was solved; Hui Ji had two of them.
These devices were extremely sturdy; even Yang Fu's full-force blow could not damage them.
Much harder than the Wood Ash Spirit Puppet.
"But how to cool it down? This time the mechanism core definitely won't explode, but the printer will still be damaged by the high temperature..."
Those precision components inside were directly burnt out; how could it still print?
Yang Genshuo scratched his head, with his current capability as a novice mechanism master... he could only make a first-grade 'Cooling Array.'
This was also the result of adding 30 points to comprehension by Blessings.
Otherwise, even this trivial array would have taken days of study...
After pondering for a long time... Yang Genshuo couldn't solve the problem on his own.
He directly called for the offspring of the Yang Family!
"Get me a second-grade 'Great Array' that can cool things down by next year!"
