Chapter 316: Timeless Order
--- Chapter 313 ---
The secret behind the Concept Stabilizer didn't lie within the material or energy source.
It was actually simple.
The Grand Doron Emperor used the Three-Step Regression Formula, an unorthodox and chaotic formula of knowledge where one twists the truth and regresses it to its original form.
Huo Yuhao needed to create an object that could withstand the Three-Step Regression Formula and encase it in a shell, similar to the silver egg container.
But if it is that easy, how could the masked Techno Master say he couldn't do it?
Well, the information about the Grand Doron Emperor is wrong.
Grand Doron Emperor is not just an inventor.He was also a Rune Master and Blacksmith!
Although the Great Doron Emperor wasn't that skilled of a Rune Master, he's actually a Divine Blacksmith who could imbue spirituality into his creation.
Huo Yuhao didn't notice it at first. But then the texture of the silver egg upon some inspection wasn't from refining technique or cutting-edge technology, but the skilled tempering of a million hammers instead.
Entering Mirror Dimension, Huo Yuhao breathed in and summoned the purple slime Palu again. It will be his second creation as Pagma's Incarnation, marking his second step as the Divine Blacksmith.
"Let's start." Huo Yuhao has done extra commissions in Channel 77 and bought more materials.
Palu jumped back and forth, spewing an anvil and blacksmith hammer for Huo Yuhao. Huo Yuhao caught the hammer casually and ignited the Nebula Thunderfire, heating the forge inside Palu's body.
ZZZT!
Palu shivered joyfully, squealing while spewing fire breath at the anvil.
"Palu, throw the materials."
The purple slime dropped the heated materials all over the anvil, and Huo Yuhao knocked them with his hammers. His blacksmith hammer moved like a thousand shadows, multiplying under his fine control.
At the same time, Huo Yuhao also infused his concepts into every hammer strike, blessing the things he made.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Huo Yuhao's muscles flex constantly, putting strain on his body.
He frowned but maintained this pace, not wanting to break the rhythm.
"Anastasia, Bing Di, Sister Mengm, help me." Huo Yuhao said while staring at the merging lump of materials in the anvil.
"I'm here, Master/Yuhao!" Anastasia, Bing Di, and Tian Meng come out of Huo Yuhao's spiritual realm.
Huo Yuhao didn't even glance at them, "Every time I flatten this ball, I want you to cool it down with your ice and snow power."
"Do it gently, and don't drop the temperature too much."
"Understood!" The three spirit souls gazed at the burning metal ball on the anvil.
Huo Yuhao adjusted his breathing before hammering the metal lump with all his might.
BOOOOOOOOOOOM!!
The Mirror Dimension trembled.
"Now!" Huo Yuhao's voice echoed.
Anastasia, Bing Di, and Tian Meng immediately used their frost power.
They cooled it down the flattened metal lumps, covering it with a thin layer of multi-colored frost.
"Palu!"
Wee!
The purple slime nodded and blasted the flattened metal lump with another wisp of Nebula Thunderfire.
"Temper." Huo Yuhao started hammering again.
The musical sound reverberated.
They tempered the metal lump continuously, disregarding time and space around them.
In fact, even the three spirit souls couldn't help but break a cold sweat because they didn't know how many times they had cooled down this metal lump.
Ten thousand times?
A hundred thousand times?
One million times?
They didn't know what Huo Yuhao was aiming for.
Huo Yuhao activated the Ancestral Eyes of Heavenly Dao, observing the metal lump with all seriousness. He looked like he was trying to find something.
His blue eyes flickered with starry specks of dust.
"Again!" Huo Yuhao suddenly shouted.
Palu heated the metal lump, Huo Yuhao smashed it flat, and the three spirits cooled it down.
"Again!"
"Again!"
"Again!"
"Again!"
"Again!"
Kacha!
The metal lump cracked because it couldn't handle Huo Yuhao's endless abuses.
"STOP!" Huo Yuhao stared at the cracked metal lump.
A dust-like particle was 'actually' produced inside the crack, around the size of 69 microns.
He didn't know what it was, but this is definitely not a concept.
"What is this?"
[I see...]
[No wonder the Techno Master couldn't replicate the Concept Stabilizer]
[That thing is involved, after all]
[Congratulation, Host]
[You have created Semi-Paradox Dust]
[It is a weaker version of Paradox Dust, which was the main component of Concept Stabilizer]
[Paradox Dust has no tangible effect unless you mix it with time energy, causing the origin to regress]
[This is also the result of the Three-Step Regression Formula]
[Paradox Dust can't be replicated. They only exist in the unstable Paradox World]
[And Paradox World only appeared when timelines were diverged, twisted, and merged into one another]
[A super rare occasion in the Omniversal Order]
"Does that mean Semi=Paradox Dust is weaker?"
[Yes, it is weaker]
[But you forget I can help you with it]
"Upgrade..." Huo Yuhao nodded in realization.
[Exactly]
[The problem lies within the Semi-Paradox Dust quantity now. If possible, you need more than one grain, preferably ten thousand of them, and the Platinum Upgrading Ticket won't get wasted]
"That's easy." Huo Yuhao chuckled in joy.
He focused on one of his concepts, applying them to Semi-Paradox Dust on the anvil.
Soon, the dust split into two, multiplying again and again.
[Concept of Multiplication, great use of it, too]
[Still, you will consume too much energy if this keeps going on]
"Worth it." Huo Yuhao replied casually.
After that, a pile of Semi-Paradox Dust sat on the anvil, which consumed 90% of Huo Yuhao's energy. Fortunately, he has the Energy Recovering Pills in his inventory.
[Good, I can upgrade them now]
[Afterward, you should seal the Paradox Dust]
[The Paradox Dust could alter space and time, more so in the Mirror Dimension]
"Mm." Huo Yuhao nodded while ordering Palu and others to retreat.
[Ding! You have used 1 Platinum Upgrading Ticket to upgrade 'Pile of Semi-Paradox Dust.']
[Upgrading...]
[Success!]
[You have received a pile of Paradox Dust]
"Done." Huo Yuhao stretched his hand and immediately used the Concept of Sealing to seal the Paradox Dust. His eyes lit up when looking at the pile of sparkling platinum dust.
"Now, let's make the framework and energy source for my Concept Stabilizer."
"The blueprint is ready."
Huo Yuhao held his hammer and opened Techno Archon's work desk, choosing the proper material. He didn't have fancy materials like the Grand Doron Emperor for a replica, but if it worked, it worked.
He used two Divine-grade Classes simultaneously, utilizing the rigidness of Pagma's Incarnation Class and the versatility of the Techno Archon Class.
Palu and three spirits helped Huo Yuhao from time to time, processing high-grade materials carefully.
After countless hours, a copper orb hovered on Huo Yuhao's palm. It was slightly smaller than the Concept Stabilizer but had the same, if not more function, than the original.
Huo Yuhao has modified some things, making it more efficient.
[Name: None (Huo Yuhao's Version)]
[Type: Divine Tool]
[Grade: EX+]
[Description: Replicating Grand Doron Emperor's Concept Stabilizer. This Divine Tool is both a mechanical device and divine artifact, powered by the core of condensed Nebula Thunderfire imbued with Heavenly Dao of Time and made of Primeval Dao Metal, which could prevent unstable factors in Concepts from breaking]
[This is an improvement but also a downgrade]
[Although this version of Concept Stabilizer is weaker and slower in stabilizing and reverting concepts than the alpha version, it redeemed with a more compact design and extra function to fuse concepts]
[Function 1: Stabilize unstable Concepts]
[Function 2: Revert Concepts to their purest form]
[Function 3: Fuse Concepts into one higher Concept]
[Ding! You have finished a Dual Class Quest]
[Objective Rate: 95%]
[Rewarding host with a recipe and material for Divine Weapon]
[Verdant World Breaker(EX)]
[The Godly Axe wielded by the Primeval Barbarian God]
Huo Yuhao's eyes widened, "Damn."
[You should name your newest creation]
[Even though you copy the Concept Stabilizer, the new function gives you the privilege to patent the technology]
[Well, I'm sure no one in the fifth and fourth Omniversal Order could replicate your works]
[No one would fight you over the technology patent anyway. The Grand Doron Emperor and his race perished a long time ago]
"Sure." Huo Yuhao pondered a name for his creation.
"I will call it..."
"Timeless Order."
