<h3>Chapter 218: Alchemy</h3> Wei Huo pushed open the bronze gate. The gate was extremely rusty. When it was pushed open, there was a sharp sound of friction. Dust kept falling, as if the gate had not been opened in a long time. Wei Huo walked in and kept moving forward. After a few steps, he saw a bronze piece flying over. There was a rune carved on the bronze piece that was emitting spiritual waves. Wei Huo suddenly thought of the CPU of a computer. He suddenly felt that the bronze piece was very similar to a chip, and its function was similar as well. Wei Huo kept moving in the direction of the bronze piece. Before long, he saw a gigantic creature. It was a huge robot that was over 20 meters tall. Its body was completely made of bronze, making it a 100% bronze robot. It was huge and had six arms and three heads. The giant bronze robot’s first head was staring at a chip. The chip was floating in the air, and its two robotic arms were holding two thin carving knives. The first head was staring at the chip seriously and carving it. Its second head was reading an ancient scroll. It was a bronze scroll with words carved on it. It was holding the ancient scroll with its other two robotic arms and reading it with relish. Its third head was staring at a blank long bronze piece. Its two hands were carving words on the bronze piece, and its third head was reading the writing. Wei Huo observed carefully. The three-headed, six-armed bronze robot had reached the Epic stage. It had been there for countless years, and cracks had appeared on its body. The ground was also covered in dust. It continued making bronze chips, reading, and writing. It was working, learning, and writing. Wei Huo observed it for a while and realized that it was very serious. It had not realized that Wei Huo had entered. However, a few minutes later, the bronze robot’s third head sighed. “I can’t write this. No matter how much I read, I can’t write it. I don’t have the ability to write.” Its third head controlled its arm and made it put down the long bronze piece. At that moment, the robot saw Wei Huo. “Eh? Which family are you from? Why are you here?” the bronze robot asked curiously. The only thing Wei Huo left in the robot’s body was an aura of nirvanic extermination. The aura emitted a weak spiritual wave, so the bronze robot had mistaken him for a child. The robot stared at the robot controlled by Wei Huo and asked curiously, “Strange… Why don’t you have eyes, noses, ears, or mouths? Without these organs, how do you speak? How do you distinguish scents? How do you hear others talking?” Wei Huo was confused. Could robots have had these organs a long time ago? Could robots have redesigned the manufacturing process of the factory to make modern robots lose these organs? Wei Huo emitted an electromagnetic wave. “The robots outside are all like this. Times have changed.” The bronze robot grabbed its third head, looking confused. “I’ve only been here for a while. How did times change?” It looked at a timer on the side that tracked time by using water droplets. When the water droplets fell, the level in the water bucket would rise. At a certain level, one would know that a particular time had been reached. However, too much time had passed. The bronze bucket was rusty, and the water had dried up. It seemed like there was a problem with the drainage system that led to the outside world. The bronze robot was confused. Its second head controlled its two robotic arms and had them put down the ancient scroll. The sound of gears moving suddenly came from its body. Wei Huo understood at that moment. He had always thought that the owner of Kunlun Mountain was too terrifying. He had built Mechanical City hundreds of years ago. Wasn’t this scientific knowledge really solid? However, upon seeing the bronze robot, Wei Huo immediately understood that he was not the one who had created this city. He had created the bronze robot based on the theories he’d had at the time. Most of its body was made of gears that provided power to the robot. However, robots had been upgraded and had started using electricity. “It’s time for you to go out,” Wei Huo said. “Times have changed!” The bronze robot lifted its third head. Its six arms stopped moving, and it looked at Wei Huo. “Have times really changed?” The bronze robot had been so engrossed in its work, learning, and creating that it had completely ignored the changes in the outside world. Time passed minute by minute, but it could not feel anything at all. It was completely lost in its own world. Wei Huo was curious to know what the bronze robot was looking at. He walked over and picked up a bronze scroll. Surprisingly, Wei Huo recognized a portion of the words on it. The Dao of Great Learning is in making the bright virtue luminous… Wei Huo thought about it carefully and thought of an ancient sage, Confucius. The bronze robot pointed at the word ‘university’ on the bronze piece and said, “This is a book written by a sage in ancient times. Its name is ‘Great Learning’. It talks about microexpressions and endless principles. It makes me feel emotional. I want to write a book too, but I haven’t even thought of the first word.” It was the Confucian classic ‘Great Learning’. He had not expected the bronze robot to be studying this book. Although Wei Huo had heard of it, he had never read it. He felt a little embarrassed that he had yet to read one of his forefathers’ works even though it was so highly valued by others. Wei Huo said, “You should go out and take a walk. Otherwise, you won’t be able to write anything.” The bronze robot, which was stunned, kept muttering, “Reading thousands of books and traveling thousands of miles makes sense. Perhaps I should go out and take a walk.” After saying that, the bronze robot suddenly stood up. The sound of gears moving kept coming from its body, but an even stronger imposing aura was emitted. When Wei Huo felt the imposing aura, he subconsciously said, “Remain calm and tranquil.” This was an old robot who had grown used to fame, wealth, and power. If it appeared in the city, given its strength, it would definitely be respected by countless robots and live a luxurious life. However, it had willingly come to this place and had been doing boring work. It had been constantly learning to enrich itself and it even planned to write a book. Wei Huo sighed. This was a Confucian scholar who had reached the Epic stage through Confucianism. Wei Huo started asking the old robot about the secrets of making soul chips. There was a hierarchy of knowledge and certain specializations. Although the old robot was only at the Epic stage, it had its own uniqueness. Wei Huo could learn from it. The old robot was confused. “Why are you asking about the manufacturing method of the soul chips? Are you here to take over my job? You’re too weak to make soul chips.” Although the old robot said that, it still meticulously explained to Wei Huo the manufacturing method of a soul chip. “This is soul alchemy. The bronze piece is just a carrier. What’s important is the symbol. If the symbol is erased, the soul will dissipate.”
