Chapter 697: Chapter 587: Turning Waste into Treasure, Filth Cleaning and Rebirth_2

This [Fourth Official], who was long restricted by Wang Yuan from venturing into taboo realms, stared at the various deceit monsters that perfectly suited his aesthetic, and couldn’t help but flush with excitement, dreaming of the possibilities.

His mind was flickering with countless dangerous thoughts such as "people can’t, or at least shouldn’t".

He looked utterly thrilled, as if a new world had been fully opened to him.

"Rabbit ears, fox tails, fish heads... although not bad, they all pale in comparison to those here, pale in comparison!"

"My [Red Line Poison] can finally open for business again."

It wasn’t just him whose eyes were gleaming, but also a large group of new members from the research department behind him.

A tall, bald monk called out to his companions:

"Come on, throw this steam engine and this steel framework together.

Let them interbreed themselves.

Maybe we’ll have Star Lord Taibai’s mass-produced mechanical beings in no time.

Though it’s difficult, we need to start preparing now.

Once the labor for the Human Clan entirely shifts to these mechanical beings, the good days for the common people will arrive."

"Also arrange for this combination of a carriage and steam engine.

Star Lord said that future large-scale mining cannot rely solely on human power, and we must work quickly to get the mining equipment operational.

The Human Dao Torrent has only just begun, and there is great potential for industrialization in mining, shipping, metallurgy... every sector.

Brethren, pay attention and record all the experimental data well.

Whether we can live the good life like Cui Yue with endless [Heavenly Favor], all depends on our skills."

"..."

The second-in-command was certainly a loyal companion:

When it came to stealing his father’s [Taoist Master Seal] from the Thunder Department and a genuine Golden Jade Scroll, he was straightforward and daring.

Moreover, he immediately took it to his disciples and falsely conveyed the Taoist Master’s decree.

After the numerous branches and disciples of [Taiyin Xuanbing Dao] collectively headed north to eradicate [Heaven Righteous Dharma Dao],

They did not immediately return to their own palaces to close their gates and quietly recite the Dharma,

but were all summoned by the second-in-command.

As long as the disciples were willing to join under the leadership of Dushuo Mountain and contribute to the glory of Daoist Skill Industry, the doors were wide open, without restrictions from the current tribulation’s rules.

When the disciples heard of such good fortunes,

they immediately followed the second-in-command to Dushuo Mountain excitedly.

Even phrases like: "As long as it doesn’t kill us, work us to death," "996 is the blessing we cultivate"...

and other brutal "corporate culture" slogans could not stop their steps.

Kidding!

Is it the 996 I’m resisting?

What I’m resisting are the pie-in-the-sky promises with no returns!

With the Daoist Skill Industry System finally on the right track, about to sprint into the fast lane,

apart from Wang Yuan, those in the research department like Cui Yue who laid the foundations and applications for textile machinery, electrical systems... also became the biggest winners.

It won’t be long before even [Divine Transformation] mages can be forcefully brought to life by [Heavenly Favor], one or two of them.

Their eyes were already red with jealousy.

Who cares about tribulation energy now?

The advantage of [Heavenly Favor] is its clear rewards and punishments.

Maybe it’s not possible to get a return on every bit of "effort," but getting a return on every bit of "achievement" is no problem at all.

No one else can take credit for your achievements.

Even if I suddenly die on the spot, what of it?

Even if I’m dead, nailed in my coffin, I would still shout from my grave:

"Don’t stop me, I’m reporting to the Underworld division of the research department with King Yan tomorrow!"

Especially one of the branches, [Divine Machine Temple],

where many disciples had their bodies transformed through Daoist skills, with arms, legs, internal organs, eyes... and other organs replaced by corresponding magic artifacts.

Similar to [Iron City Temple]’s "man-cannon union",

they believed the human body was too fragile and that only the combination of humans with machinery and magic treasures represented the future of [Taiyin Xuanbing Dao] and even all humanity.

As long as they continued down the path of their own Earth Department’s [Divine Mechanism Hundred Transformations Technique],

they would eventually achieve the great goal of "weak flesh, mechanical ascension".

Exploring a new Immortal Dao outside of [Immortal Law · Mastery of Five Thunders],

allowing [Taiyin Xuanbing Dao] to produce a [Corpse Dissection Immortal] like the southern [Dragon Elephant Tao]!

Standing on the beach, just by briefly looking around, this realm of infinite confusion between the organic and inorganic seemed to provide them with endless inspiration.

This trip was worth it!

Also,

a group of magicians formed up at the only sealing boundary gap on the beach.

Holding standard Dharma Swords, they drew talismans on the blade while jointly chanting mantras:

"Taibai, Taibai, phoenix beaks, dragon scales. Flying Talisman forward, cut off evil miasma. Should any evil monster dare, its tracks shall be terminated, its form annihilated. Divine authority everywhere, Eating Ghost swallows monsters. Make haste as this decree!"

As the spell concluded, a flash of white light burst from the Dharma Sword, having received the divine support of [Butcher’s Knife Eating Ghost].

Any chaotic deceit monster that dared emerge would be met with a sword strike at its head.

A few swings, and it would be thoroughly devoured.

Even the Sea Spider, an insignificant creature of mostly legs and mouth, surviving from the Cambrian period without any creature willing to eat it,

could not escape the edge of the Butcher’s Knife!

Then, carrying a torrent of abundant primordial Qi, the hot flow would enter through the Dharma Sword into everyone’s [Divine Power Talisman], accelerating their Taoist ability advancement.

Another part would suddenly vanish into thin air.
