Chapter 199 Unexpected Hotspot
Punan City Chanyin Temple
Less than two incense sticks’ time after the Internet Secret Realm Weapon System came online, Bodhisattva Jingyuan had already obtained the real thing.
He looked down at the flying sword in his hand, his expression calm, and after a while, he sighed:
"It is said that Bodhisattvas have cultivated virtues to perfection, explored the nature of nature, discovered wisdom, and achieved perfect wisdom. However, I have observed that most Bodhisattvas in the world are good at talking. Only Master Yunli is wise and has made extraordinary achievements. He can use ordinary instruments to magnify his majesty with such ingenious means. He is worthy of respect and awe!"
Under the lotus platform, Huijue Arhat, who presented the Dharma instruments, showed a solemn expression: "In this way, wouldn't Ciyun Temple be powerful?"
Bodhisattva Jingyuan nodded: "Yes, the launch of the weapon system will not only strengthen the power of Ciyu Temple, but most importantly, it is very likely to become one of the sources of income for Ciyu Temple."
Huijue Arhat raised his eyebrows and immediately realized the commercial potential.
The Buddha conferred the title of Master Yunli in the Ciyu Dharma Realm because he wanted to use Master Yunli to consume the power of the demon clan and protect Xiniu Hezhou!
Master Yunli is worthy of being the master of the Internet and has already shown his outstanding ability.
But if Master Yunli's power becomes stronger and stronger, this is probably not what the Buddhist community wants to see.
Unexpectedly, things went against one's wishes.
Not long after Bodhisattva Jingyuan finished speaking, the Internet issued a second announcement.
This announcement is not for Internet Secret Realm players, but for all Internet users.
[Announcement: From now on, the General Chamber of Commerce will be renamed the Internet Chamber of Commerce, all sections will be reopened, and the Internet Chamber of Commerce will accept Internet system private customization services. For details, please see the "Terms of Service for Private Customization of Internet System"]
Arhat Huijue read the new announcement carefully and became more and more frightened.
The so-called interconnected chamber of commerce has a business scope basically the same as that of a general chamber of commerce. The only difference is the addition of an interconnected system.
In fact, only those with the same strength can join the interconnected system.
At first glance, it seems that only the interconnected secret realms where fragments of the avenue are scattered meet the requirements.
Actually it is not.
For the major sects, the skills practiced by their disciples are mostly the same, so it is entirely possible to set up a sect local area network.
If you subscribe to the Internet service, disciples in the sect can enjoy the magical support of all disciples in the sect through the interconnected magical instruments.
The impact this will have on the sect’s strength will be immeasurable.
Especially for sects with limited financial resources.
Therefore, as soon as the announcement was made, not only the Chanyin Temple, but also the Xiniuhe Continent and even the Nanzhanbu Continent were all shaken.
Gu Zhenzai, who has escaped from the control of the Immortal Court, is already speeding along the abstract track!
"I told you that if the interconnected magic weapon can be used in the secret realm, it can naturally be used in reality. Sure enough, I guessed right!"
"I'm crying. I saved up so much money to buy a universal magic weapon. Why can't it be added to the interconnected system?"
"The evidence is irrefutable! We just called for the sale of Internet magic tools, and they issued a notice? Master Yunli was definitely spying on the screen!"
"I feel like this interconnected system is a conspiracy. Once you subscribe to the service, you will be controlled by others from now on!"
"It's not entirely because we are controlled by others, it's just that the interconnection system cannot be used!"
"I feel that the interconnected system is beneficial to small sects and schools. The magic tools are not expensive and are very powerful."
"I read the terms and conditions. If you join the energy sharing plan, you can also waive the service fee. In this way, isn't it a mutual restraint?"
Some people were seriously discussing the pros and cons of the Internet system, while others simply turned into people who were having fun and were adding fuel to the fire.
"Geomancy, armillary sphere, water mirror, where are you? The Internet has been updated so many times, why are you still stuck in the ancient times?"
"It's so funny! He chased the people away and thought he could dominate the market, but in the end, he ended up unlocking the seal on them instead."
It’s not the netizens’ fault for adding fuel to the fire. Since Gu Yunli rebelled against the Immortal Court, other networks could no longer keep up with the development of the Internet.
Especially after version 5.1.
Not to mention the interconnected system and the interconnected secret realm, even the private attribute panel of the original 5.1 version has not been replicated on the Internet so far.
So much so that even though the Internet was banned by the Immortal Court;
But the number of users is increasing day by day.
Especially the monk community.
This group of people used to get things for free, but now with the emergence of network login tools and for the various benefits of the Internet, they have to contribute.
The network masters were all anxious when they saw this scene.
……
Fairy mist was lingering above the nine heavens. The Taiwei Yuqing Palace seemed a little solemn today. The soldiers on duty had solemn expressions, and the palace maids walking back and forth walked lightly. The huge palace was solemn and serious, only because the Three Officials Emperors came to pay homage at the same time.
"Ever since Gu Yunli rebelled against the Immortal Court, he has completely disregarded the Three Bonds and Five Constant Virtues, and has taken an unconventional approach, causing his momentum to grow even stronger. Do you have any plans to deal with him?"
The Jade Emperor sat high on the throne, looking at the Three Officials with a sharp gaze.
Emperor Ziwei bowed and said, "Your Majesty, although the Internet has the potential to revive, it is just a minor problem. There is no need to worry."
Qingxu and Dongyin also echoed, "What Ziwei said makes sense. Now that Gu Yunli has changed his name to Master Yunli and has been conferred the title of Ciyun Dharma Realm, he seems to be in control of a place, but in fact he is controlled by the demon clan and it is difficult for him to escape. Your Majesty does not need to worry."
The Jade Emperor frowned: "A thousand-mile dam can be breached by an ant hole. Gu Yunli is a man of great talent, so we must be on guard against him!"
The Three Officials Emperor replied: "Your Majesty is wise. I will be on guard against the resurgence of the Internet."
Seeing the three people's stubborn attitude, the Jade Emperor was so angry that his teeth were itching, but he was helpless and could only let the three people leave.
It is said that just after the Three Officials Emperor left, he had a small gathering in Ziwei Palace.
"We still underestimated Gu Yunli. The Internet Secret Realm is coming with great momentum. Now that the Internet System has been released, I'm afraid the Internet Secret Realm will really do something big."
Compared to his nonchalance in Taiwei Yuqing Palace, the faces of the Three Emperors who met in private appeared very solemn.
As the masters of the Internet, they understand better than anyone the power of the Internet.
The reason why he was perfunctory to the Jade Emperor was simply that he was unwilling to cooperate with him.
Speaking of which, after Gu Yunli betrayed the Immortal Court, the whole world laughed at the Jade Emperor for losing more than he gained.
In fact, the Jade Emperor had already obtained what he wanted - the source of counting sticks.
When Gu Yunli rebelled against the Immortal Court, he scattered several sources of counting chips in order to escape the encirclement. With the power of the Jade Emperor, it would not be difficult to replicate one.
This can be detected through subtle changes in the Star Sea network.
Therefore, cooperating with the Jade Emperor is extremely disadvantageous to them.
What they have, the Jade Emperor also has;
What they don't have, the Jade Emperor also has, such as the cultivation level of Daluo Jinxian.
This is the fundamental reason why they act stupid.
"Regarding the secret realm of the Internet, have you gained anything?"
"I can barely imitate some puppet control techniques with my magic and divine thoughts, but it is difficult to replicate the fragments of the Great Dao. Without this, I am afraid it will be difficult to attract users."
After saying this, the Three Officials Emperor fell silent.
Ever since they came out of the interconnected secret realm, they have been trying to comprehend the fragments of the Great Dao, but unfortunately there has been no progress so far.
This inevitably made them feel a little scared.
Emperor Dongyin saw this and said comfortingly: "The interconnected secret realm is difficult to replicate, but the interconnected system can be imitated."
Everyone nodded, their mood improving slightly.
In Jambu Continent, the Internet has been blocked, so it is certainly difficult to sell the magic tools openly, but this gives them an opportunity.
Thinking of the customized services launched by the Internet, Emperor Qingxu raised his eyebrows suddenly: "Have you noticed a detail?"
"What details?"
Ziwei and Dongyin looked at it intently.
"To this day, Gu Yunli has not given up the energy sharing plan, and even specifically mentioned this point in the private customized service." As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes flickered.
"I remember Gu Yunli mentioned virtual games. It seems that the Internet has no intention of giving up this area."
"Snapped!"
Emperor Ziwei suddenly clapped his hands and said, "I understand. There are billions of people in the world. No matter how big the Ciyun Dharma Realm is, it is impossible to accommodate all the people in the world. Gu Yunli wants to use the virtual world to accommodate all the people in the world. If necessary, it can be transformed into a puppet army at any time."
As soon as these words were spoken, Qingxu Dongyin's spirit was refreshed.
"Gu Yunli's plan may not stop there. If the Internet can accommodate all people in the world through a virtual world, all the incense in the world will be returned to the Internet."
After these words were spoken, Ziwei Palace fell silent. They had unexpectedly guessed the Internet's next move and were already shocked by Gu Yunli's ambition.
"Gu Yunli is very ambitious. This possibility is very high. We should be prepared for everything. To be on the safe side, we should make preparations early!"
Emperor Qingxu said with a serious face, a hint of murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
……
……
As soon as the interconnected weapon system came out, the outside world was in an uproar, and the scene in front of the Foundry Pavilion where weapons were sold was even more lively.
Countless players gathered from all directions, regardless of whether they were rich or poor, they just came to watch.
It would have been fine if they hadn't been watching, but the watching directly broke the defense of many players.
"Oh my god, didn't they say that the interconnected secret realm has just been opened? Didn't everyone have no money? What's the matter with so many phantom players?"
"There are too many people here. I'm the only poor guy left!"
That's right. Even though a group of people on the Internet are complaining that Internet magic tools are too expensive, when everyone ran to the Foundry Pavilion, they found that a long queue had already formed in front of the door.
Among them, there are quite a few smart people who have started live broadcasts.
Look, in front of the Weapon Foundry Pavilion, a phantom player wearing the Internet Xuan Gang dragon scale armor, holding the Jin Hong Dawn Sword, and named "What does killing you have to do with you" is broadcasting live.
"Brothers, I've already bought it. Come, let me show it to you carefully first."
As soon as the flying sword was displayed, it immediately attracted a wave of barrage.
"Shit, it really is the flying sword from the main quest!"
"I am crying my eyes out. I never thought that the flying sword I personally helped to make would be in a state that I cannot afford."
Yes, these flying swords are the ones refined in the main quest "The Growth Path of a Master Refiner".
The anchor looked at the various comments and suddenly had an idea:
"Brothers, I have a bold idea. What do you think will happen if we secretly add a personal mark when refining the weapon?"
This sudden idea immediately attracted many people to follow suit, and they all said they would try it when they went online.
It also made his live broadcast popularity soar.
During the flying sword demonstration, the host casually injected a stream of magic power into the flying sword, trying to activate it.
The unexpected pop-up window made him scream out in surprise!
"Fuck, that's awesome!"
"Brothers, guess what I discovered? This thing can actually recognize its owner and bind its identity!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the barrage of comments boiled over again.
"Fuck, is the host a novice in cultivation? Why is it so surprising that he can refine a magical tool?"
"Can a universal magic weapon also recognize its master?"
"That's impossible. Can you buy a magic weapon with this little money?"
Looking at the overwhelming comments, the anchor became anxious and quickly explained incoherently:
"It's not a recognition of the master of the magic weapon, nor is it a refining. How should I put it? This is an Internet authentication. The pop-up window above said that once bound, only the owner of the flying sword can activate the magic circle..."
It is obvious that the anchor did not read the [Weapon System] instructions carefully, or even if he did, he did not pay attention to the instructions about identity binding.
When I suddenly discovered this, I was naturally very excited.
Unfortunately, his words only made the audience more confused.
After all, people can't imagine what they haven't seen.
In fact, many people did not know that the Internet magic weapon could be bound to their identity until they got it.
After all, not every player can read the introduction to the interconnection system from beginning to end.
Most people just take a quick glance to get a general idea.
For a while, there were cries of surprise one after another in front of the Foundry Pavilion.
Not long after, a pinned and featured post appeared on an Internet forum, attracting countless onlookers.
[Unbelievable, an Internet magic weapon can actually recognize its master? ]
The post describes in detail the process of recognizing the owner of an interconnected magic weapon, and also states that once the identity binding is completed, other people who hold the magic weapon will not only be unable to join the interconnected system, but will also be unable to activate even the simplest sword light.
As soon as the post was released, it immediately attracted countless onlookers.
"All the master recognition instruments are top-notch. Even if the Internet Secret Realm is wealthy, it is impossible for it to mass-produce master recognition instruments, right?"
"I just asked a friend, and it is true that interconnected magic tools can recognize their masters!"
"Impossible! A gimmick, right? The Internet is the best at creating hot news."
"It's so funny. You still want to claim a magic weapon as your master. Do you know how much it costs?"
Amid the clamor, the calls to dismantle the instruments grew louder and louder.
"Don't argue. Just take apart the interconnected magical instruments and the answer will be clear."
Faced with increasing calls and instigation, the poster decisively dismantled the magic weapon and revealed the internal structure of the curse.
It would have been fine if it hadn't been demolished, but when it was demolished, everyone was dumbfounded.
But the internal structure is too simple.
"Although I don't know how to refine weapons, can this little curse also help me recognize my master?"
"Apart from the parts that make up the power, the interconnected curse seal is the most suspicious."
"The host, please try to destroy the Internet curse!"
Everyone quickly identified the location of the master recognition program through the process of elimination.
The poster did not disappoint everyone and destroyed the Internet curse with his magic power!
Unfortunately, once the interconnected curse seal is destroyed, let alone recognizing the master, even the simplest sword energy is difficult to activate.
At this point, things should have ended.
However, after this year's development, netizens have already developed a mentality of watching the fun without minding any trouble.
Instead, they became more courageous and excited as they encountered more setbacks, and they flocked to the blogs of major famous weapon refiners to request disassembly and analysis.
This made all the weapon refiners dumbfounded.
To dismantle it, you have to log in to the Internet secret realm;
Don’t tear it down. Huge amounts of traffic are just around the corner. If you miss this rare opportunity, you don’t know when the next one will come.
For a time, countless people were entangled in confusion.
