Big Data Cultivation-Chapter 2095 - 2097: Astonishing Margin of Error

Feng Jun had no pressure against Yitian, but in fact, he still provided a result, "True Immortal Chen Xi, it is indeed a small world."

True Immortal Chen Xi wouldn’t believe hearsay, "What theoretical support do you have? Without it... I can’t give you double the payment."

The two thousand mid-grade spirit stones from last time weren’t paid. If this time it is confirmed to be a small world, he will double the payment.

"I can’t tell you the theory," Feng Jun smiled slightly, "it’s an undisclosed secret of the sect, but I can let the result speak for itself."

"Let the results speak? So be it," True Immortal Chen Xi nodded with a smile, "then it will take a lot of your time... When is this alternate space at its weakest and most convenient to enter?"

By the end of his sentence, he was even a bit eager to try — the Tianqin Plane is truly powerful, even without understanding the opponent, he believed it was an "opportunity."

Feng Jun truly envied the attitude of Tianqin cultivators, that was confidence from the bottom of their hearts.

However, in regards to delaying time, he didn’t agree, he smiled, "This small world overlaps with Tianqin, it will take at least half a year, I don’t have time to wait that long, I must go back, I’m too lazy to deduce details, but it is indeed a small world."

"You don’t have time to wait..." True Immortal Chen Xi pursed his lips, "You’re leaving now?"

"More or less," Feng Jun nodded, "I have a lot of things to handle there, you know."

True Immortal Chen Xi hesitated for a moment, "Then the payment will be settled in half a year? Mountain Master Feng, there aren’t many spirit stones, I can afford them, but if the result is wrong, it would be too embarrassing... shall I settle it with you after half a year?"

"I don’t mind, not settling is fine too," Feng Jun expressed that he didn’t care about those spirit stones, "In any case, I’m definitely not deceiving you."

True Immortal Rongyang sneered, "Is it that you’ve found deceit doesn’t work?"

Did I provoke you? Feng Jun was truly angry now, "I’m talking to True Immortal Chen Xi, what do you think you are, daring to interrupt?"

His words were extremely rude, and True Immortal Rongyang was furious, his beard bristling and eyes glaring, given his status now, he could easily crush ten of these little ants like Feng Jun with a single slap.

At least he maintained his composure, merely nodding silently, fine, boy, never let yourself be caught alone.

He could tolerate Yi Jue’s offense, but a mere Golden Core First Layer — even a disciple from a prestigious sect, he wouldn’t let go.

True Immortal Chen Xi originally wanted to mediate their conflict but seeing True Immortal Rongyang didn’t react, he pretended not to hear the conversation, "Do you take my Xuanhuang Sect for what? We will definitely settle... Since you can’t explain the principle, then we’ll just wait for the outcome."

"Since you insist..." Feng Jun blinked, "Then do other results count?"

True Immortal Chen Xi was a bit bewildered, "Other results... what do you mean?"

"Two days later, there will be space fluctuations again," Feng Jun declared confidently, "I can point out several fluctuation points for you... Will this verification suffice?"

"Fluctuation points?" Everyone froze upon hearing, even Yitian turned his head, the occurrence of space fluctuation points is random, if one can point them out, that is absolutely deduced.

True Immortal Chen Xi’s eyes lit up, but matters like these Elder Hexu was more adept at handling, "How many can you point out?"

Feng Jun pondered for a moment before asking, "Will three be enough? Or... five?"

He considered pointing out one or two points might make the opponent think it was guesswork, so he decided to point out several.

"Alright, then five points," Elder Hexu stated very frankly, "Out of the five points, as long as four are accurate... the deduction fee will be settled immediately, we don’t mean to make things difficult for you."

"There’s a twenty percent margin for error?" Feng Jun laughed hearing that, originally he wanted to say he didn’t need it, but thinking more, there’s really no need — what if a mishap occurs?

"Hold on," Yitian spoke in a deep voice, he didn’t look at Feng Jun, but at Elder Hexu, "True Immortal Hexu, isn’t there a need to roughly agree on the margin of error for the fluctuation points?"

Deduction will definitely have an error margin, this is very normal, he reminded, in order to prevent Feng Jun from quibbling.

Feng Jun gave him a faint look, didn’t speak, but Elder Hexu nodded, "That’s true, dare I ask Fellow Daoist Feng, what is the margin of error?"

Feng Jun glanced sideways, thought of a number, "No more than half a mile, how about that?"

"No problem," True Immortal Hexu nodded without hesitation, in such a vast void, a margin of half a mile... can it be considered an error?

Upon hearing this answer, even Yitian couldn’t help but retort, "If all five points are within half a mile, then I respect you!"

You think I care about your respect? Feng Jun shot him a glare, but considering he had already offended the True Immortal Rongyang of the Lingmu Sect, it was best not to attract further enmity, so he just let out a light snort and stayed silent.

Yitian had just started to warm to him, but after receiving such a glare, he couldn’t be bothered to say anything more.

It was Elder Hexu who pondered and continued to ask, "Daoist Feng, can you only find five points?"

"Not exactly," Feng Jun shook his head, smiling as he answered, "But five points are enough to prove I’m not just making things up."

"Find a few more points," Elder Hexu suggested. Noticing Feng’s lips moving slightly, he quickly sped up his speech, "After exceeding five points, for each additional point, we’ll pay one high-grade Spirit Stone, how about that?"

"You..." Feng Jun had already thought of how to refuse, but his words got stuck in his throat, pausing for a moment before speaking, "I don’t really lack Spirit Stones, in the Kunhao Realm I’m constantly busy with deductions."

"We know that," Elder Hexu nodded with a smile, but inwardly he scoffed: Does Kunhao even have high-grade Spirit Stones?

"However, since you have this need, I can help out, but before that, I have a question," Feng Jun paused before asking, "Why do you want to know so many space points?"

Elder Hexu smiled upon hearing this, "We indeed have some other ideas, but it’s inconvenient to say right now, the current situation is... you deduce more space points, and we pay with high-grade Spirit Stones, it’s a simple transaction."

"It’s not that simple," Feng Jun shook his head, speaking solemnly, "The space points I deduced are just highly probable locations, if you engage in actions possibly involving cause and effect, the space points might shift... even the appearance time could change."

The True Immortal Hexu listened earnestly to his words, then nodded with a smile, "We understand your concern... rest assured, our Xuanhuang Gate, with its many centuries of heritage, wouldn’t overlook these details."

In the recently ended deduction process, Feng Jun discovered a good dozen or so space fluctuation points—after all, he had spent three whole days on it.

However, since they wanted to pay with high-grade Spirit Stones, he planned to go through it all again, to avoid any potential deviation exceeding half a mile that would embarrass him later.

Upon learning he wanted to go back and verify, Elder Hexu wasted no time in deploying a warship, acting much more decisively than before, while also refusing any cultivators outside of the two sects from boarding—except for Yi Jue, of course.

This refusal made the three True Immortals of Rongyang feel quite uncomfortable, and the True Immortal from the secret realm family even remarked, "Daoist Hexu, this kind of preferential treatment... can easily make people feel disheartened."

"You talk too much!" Hexu shot him an annoyed look, clearly indicating their close personal friendship, "Didn’t you hear? Although this is verification, it mustn’t meet any cause-and-effect interference... those threads are very fragile."

Cause-and-effect threads being fragile is common knowledge among high-rank practitioners, much like the idea of an "Amazon butterfly flapping its wings..." This was also why Feng Jun stopped Xia Nichang from refining on the Blazing Flame Plate.

Yet this person was still unhappy, pointing at Hexu, "You just don’t trust me."

But Elder Hexu also carried the aura of a superior, "Stop it, Feng Jun deducing a single space point is only worth one high-grade Spirit Stone, but how much did I pay you to deduce?"

"That’s not something I inflated," the man glared, "You know the price I set; I’ve already calculated it to be very fair, and as for Feng Jun... he’s just a real person, no matter how skilled he is, his cultivation level is a shortcoming, how high could his deduction prices get?"

His words weren’t incorrect, no matter how high Feng Jun’s deduction ability was, his cultivation level limited his pricing—at the Nascent Soul Stage, high-grade Spirit Stones could settle the price, while he could only use mid-grade ones, even that took some courage.

Of course, those who truly recognized his value wouldn’t offer a stingy price, for instance, the True Immortal Wan Qing immediately presented a One-Yuan Fire Embryo—a fairly enticing gift for a Nascent Soul Stage deduction expert.

Thus, the deal of one high-grade Spirit Stone per space point still tempted Feng Jun.

Yet, as soon as he boarded the warship, a trace of Yi Jue’s divine sense transmitted over, "Just earn a couple high-grade Spirit Stones, don’t reveal too many space points."

"Hmm?" Feng Jun was a bit surprised, glancing at her before sending back a segment of divine sense, "What do you mean?"

The divine sense exchange between the two naturally couldn’t escape the notice of other True Immortals on the warship, but exchanging whispers was normal.

Yi Jue, being at the Nascent Soul Peak, wasn’t worried about eavesdropping, but Feng Jun, only at the Golden Core First Layer, couldn’t recklessly assume his messages wouldn’t be intercepted, so he simply asked.

Yi Jue’s response was vague, "If you really need high-grade Spirit Stones, I can exchange some for you, but don’t disclose too many space points to them; it won’t do you any good."

Feng Jun instantly understood—sure, revealing over a dozen space points at once could earn some high-grade Spirit Stones, but it would also expose part of his capabilities, and previously he had always maintained a low profile.

While others couldn’t deduce a single space point, he could present over a dozen at once; he had already attracted quite a bit of enmity, and doing this would be a surefire way to court trouble.

Stay steady, don’t splurge! He smiled slightly, "I want to hear the truth."
