Death... and me

After the disciples asked what the name meant, Rean just smiled in response and didn't explain. Obviously, only Rean could understand the weight of that name. Indeed, it would be very good if it could be as resistant as the real deal. 

"Alright, let's do a few more tests and see if it has any other problems. If not, we're going to mass-produce it using the blueprints we've devised. We need to use it to make other circuitry formation machines that can automatically assemble everything together, or at least the most common parts used in them." A good thing about the Minuscule Rune Carver was that it saved a lot of materials. That being said, even though it had a built-in Heaven Initial-level Protection Formation, its cost wasn't that high.

Of course, that was only considering the assets of cultivators at the Core Formation Realm and above. Those below it would probably have a hard time paying for the materials even if it was a lot cheaper than the first version, let alone the finalized product.

Liza immediately replied in place for the other low-level disciples, saying, "Don't worry, Rean. We have been following the instructions carefully. I believe we will have a prototype for the new iteration of the Minuscule Rune Carving Formation in the next few days. Once that is completed, creating those... 'Nokia'...circuitry devices wouldn't be too hard."

Rean was satisfied to hear that. "Very good."

Qia then changed the topic to the next step of the plan, telling the others, "Okay, we finally have a reliable Spiritual Smartphone. What we need now is to expand the coverage of our phone signals. At the moment, we're only active in Fausec Country and nowhere else."

Hering that, Rean immediately spread his Spiritual Sense, trying to find Malo's location. 'Oh! There you are.'

Malo, who was discussing a few things with Fizer about his cultivation, immediately replied, 'Elder Rean. What is it that you need?'

'Have you finished the preparations I talked about with you?' Rean asked in response.

Malo knew what Rean was talking about, replying without delay, 'Yes. The other new countries that emerged south of Fausec have already received the news. They should come in the next few days to check the communication system. As long as you convince them, you should be able to build the antennas in their territories.'

Rean nodded, saying in response, 'That's good. Well, I would be able to build them even if they didn't want to. The Circuitry Communication System is a must for the future of the human race. On this point alone, I won't let anyone intervene with it, even if I have to use Senior Fizer's influence.'

Fizer, who also heard that conversation, didn't seem to mind. 'Just go ahead and use it. I still intend to be around by the time our thousand years of protection are over. By that time, I hope the human race will have the best tools to defend itself.'

Rean then looked at Qia and the others after that, telling them, "Alright, I already confirmed with Malo that the representatives of the countries below are on their way to Freedom Sect."

Srevil took the chance to add, "In that case, let's separate our Formation Masters into two teams. I'll enter Liza's low-level group that's currently working on the new Minuscule Rune Carving Formation. With my help as a Heaven Initial-Level Formation Master, we should be able to hasten the process."

Dian understood what Srevil wanted to do, stepping up as he said, "In that case, I'll focus on building more version 7.2 antennas. Rean, Qia, I'll need your help with a few things on this part since the controlling circuitry devices have a lot more complicated parts to build."

"Definitely!" Rean and Qia understood that and accepted the idea. Rean was also happy to see that others could take on the main jobs without him having to say anything. Even if Srevil hadn't suggested it, Rean would have done so.

Meanwhile, inside Roan's hut close to the top of the mountain, Zuo was sitting on the ground, controlling his Spiritual Energy and Elemental Gathering. Around him, many pieces of metals, may it be weapons or other things, were floating in midair. 

"Concentrate on the steps of the magnetism cultivation manual I've devised," Roan said on his side. "If you feel any discomfort, no matter how negligible it is, tell me straight away. Rare Elemental Affinities are very dangerous since they're usually the first ones to try new cultivation methods. You're different from the five mainstream elements, whose cultivation manuals were refined tens of thousands of times during countless years. They won't need to worry about backlashes anymore, but you do."

"Yes, Master!" Zuo continued to control his cultivation and the magnetism around him without stopping. At first, Zuo felt nervous about being around Roan. The Demon King always had a cold expression, and he was afraid that he would be rebuked at any time. However, that feeling didn't last long since Roan was quite nice to him. 

Roan's wife, Calina, often took Zuo all the way to Freedom City to visit his parents. There, he saw that the sect really took good care of them and his siblings. 

As for his training, as long as Zuo was serious about it, Roan wouldn't be so harsh when mistakes came out. He just had to learn from those mistakes. Any injury he suffered was healed straight away as well. Simply put, Zuo had a cultivation environment that even the descendants of the Sasamil Royal Family back in Sunkan Planet would envy.

Back then, when Roan took him in as a disciple, Roan helped him break through into the Energy Gathering Realm. After that, Roan instructed him to stop cultivating until a magnetism cultivation manual was created. For that, Roan had Zuo try many different things while checking every corner of Zuo's body, meridians, elemental control, and dantian. 

Today, it has been ten days since the first version of the magnetism cultivation manual came out, and it was already at the third version. That was because Zuo found problems with the first two, which Roan instantly discarded without even blinking. Roan was really going all out for his new and only disciple.
