"That knife, as a sediment of the Sea of Dreams, is not only the key to dreams, but also the best symbol of dreams."
"Nothing is more suitable as the core item than this knife."
"Alchemy is the manifestation of higher-dimensional rules, and this entirely new system has been nailed to the world by your status."
"As the language closest to the rules themselves, inscriptions can help you quell the various strange occurrences of the [Garden of Night]."
Under the pure white sky, the girl's red dress was dazzling, and her gentle and ethereal voice gradually dispelled the doubts in Huo Yuhao's heart.
Hearing the words of the plane's consciousness, Huo Yuhao lowered his head, lost in thought.
Since discovering the inscription system, he had been constantly cultivating this path.
His achievements were considerable; he had currently discovered a total of fifty-eight inscription symbols, three major inscription categories, and six structural configurations.
Huo Yuhao could sense that this system was far more than this.
Currently, deciphering the symbols of the inscriptions was becoming increasingly difficult, through the study of the six basic inscriptions.
Huo Yuhao vaguely sensed that all the inscriptions were connected, definitely sharing a relationship similar to the periodic table of elements from his previous life.
For example, the inscriptions like "Accelerate" and "Monitor" were almost entirely derived from wind element inscriptions.
Every stroke and line of these inscriptions clearly showed the influence of wind element inscriptions.
Similarly, the inscriptions like "Inverted," "Reversed," and fire element inscriptions resembled fire element inscriptions with some water element inscriptions incorporated into their structure.
From this, Huo Yuhao deduced that the inscription system must have a periodic table of elements.
Once this table could be derived, the discovery of subsequent inscriptions would be much easier.
During his time in Xilu City, Huo Yuhao also discovered that most people simply couldn't understand the inscription system.
When they saw the detailed structure of an inscription, their brains would automatically shield themselves due to information overload.
Huo Yuhao learned from them that these inscriptions, if their structure wasn't examined closely, resembled a very noble and profound script, inspiring awe and reverence—
similar to the instinctive reaction they felt when seeing their noble grandfathers.
However, if one tried to examine their structure closely, the script would become a jumbled mosaic, making it impossible to decipher the overall structure.
How could one learn this alchemical system if they couldn't even understand the inscriptions?
Later, Huo Yuhao asked Tianmeng Ice Silkworm and Ilex
if they could clearly see the structure of the inscriptions.
Ilex, of course, needed no introduction; his Divine Origin Realm spiritual power swept through and he memorized the structure of the inscriptions without any attempt to decipher them.
Tianmeng Ice Silkworm was a bit slower, but she could still clearly remember the structure of the inscriptions.
However, at the time, Ilex was too weak, and Tianmeng was too slow and focused entirely on the Ice Emperor, not paying much attention to Huo Yuhao's alchemy.
This prevented them from accompanying him in his alchemical research.
Huo Yuhao believed that this "hide-and-seek" situation with the inscriptions was related to the level of spiritual power.
The stronger one's mental power, the more inscription structures one can see, and the greater the brain's information-carrying capacity.
This prevents the brain from crashing due to an overwhelming amount of information.
However, to completely memorize inscription structures and be able to draw them independently, one's mental power would likely need to reach the Spirit Sea Realm.
In this era where even Limit Douluo only possess Spirit Abyss Realm mental power, the Spirit Sea Realm is practically a mental power level only Soul Saints can reach.
If Huo Yuhao wants to promote alchemy, he must address this pain point of excessively high mental power requirements.
"What if I could have a foundation..."
Huo Yuhao pondered for an unknown amount of time in the center of the Glazed Path. Because there is no concept of time here, it could be a day, or it could be a month.
He considered the pain points of alchemy and the chaos of the [Night Curtain Garden].
Tianmeng Ice Silkworm and Golden Tortoiseshell also dared not move in the sea of consciousness, afraid of disturbing Huo Yuhao's thoughts.
The little planet spirit also watched Huo Yuhao gently, its obsidian-like eyes full of affection.
Finally, after combining his own knowledge system, Huo Yuhao arrived at an answer—a foundation.
If a large alchemical foundation could be created in the center of the Nightfall Garden using alchemy,
this foundation could streamline the mixed spiritual energy within the dreams, removing spiritual imprints and transforming it into pure spiritual energy.
This purest spiritual energy could then be used to construct a unique symbol within the Nightfall Garden.
The core of the foundation would be composed of the Remnant Dream Blade, an object closer to the essence of dreams than anything else.
Furthermore, its macroscopic control over spiritual energy is extremely strong, being a sedimentation of the dream realm.
It can even actively disperse mixed spiritual energy, preventing it from being eroded by it.
Once the foundation is in place, Huo Yuhao could also resolve the pain point of alchemy's excessively high spiritual energy requirements.
The Nightfall Garden, a dream realm, is inherently a place where countless lives' spiritual energy and memories converge.
Here, every life can be linked through dreams.
Huo Yuhao could add access codes, access programs, and some basic alchemical knowledge to the alchemical foundation.
If conditions permit, Huo Yuhao could even add special functions like the internet to the foundation.
No satellites are needed; the dream world itself is the best and strongest base station.
As for the server, let's leave it to the
Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm. It's common knowledge that stronger mental power doesn't necessarily mean greater intelligence, as seen in the case of the Silver Dragon King and the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm.
However, strong mental power certainly implies strong computational ability!
If the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm's million years of mental cultivation were all converted into computational power, it probably wouldn't lose to the earliest version of the quantum computer 550A.
Anyway, its brain is either constantly frozen
or filled with muttering nonsense.
It's practically a waste!
Huo Yuhao dislikes wasting things; he eats every single grain of rice in his bowl!
Using the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm's brain as a server is a fair use of its cultivation.
At this moment, the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, located in the Sea of Spirit, felt a chill and wondered if Di Tian and the others were still after it.
Once a life form successfully connects to this alchemical base, it can gain partial access to mental power with Huo Yuhao's permission.
Similarly, Huo Yuhao possesses the highest right of interpretation for this access.
This access permission allows users to mobilize the spiritual energy of the Dreamland and view the alchemical information Huo Yuhao inserted into the base plate. It
allows them to understand what alchemy is and how to use it.
Then, by utilizing this spiritual energy, they can attempt to use various alchemical spells.
Visitors can even inscribe their own alchemical creations onto the Tianmeng server through the base plate, retrieving them directly when needed.
No redrawing is required, much like a USB drive.
Visitors only need to inject a small amount of spiritual energy into the base plate each month as a network fee to maintain this access.
After all, the spiritual energy they mobilize is unconsciously injected into the Dreamland.
It's even possible that some of the spiritual energy is originally their own.
It's similar to a bank; just as banks offer loans, Huo Yuhao can provide spiritual energy loans through the base plate.
Huo Yuhao only earns a platform fee, a small profit margin, and a small interest.
It's all hard-earned money through effort and sweat.
As for whether the base plate will be unused, Huo Yuhao isn't worried about that at all.
Imagine, in the Soul Arena, two three-ring Soul Masters duel, one of whom is a support type.
Just when the opponent thought victory was assured, they suddenly connected to the base system, instantly casting previously inscribed offensive spells.
A barrage of skills slammed into their face; they probably felt like the sky was falling.
Do you think this person would turn to the base system for help?
