Urban Cultivation with a Demonic System-Chapter 107: The Most Suitable Main Material for the Ten Thousand Souls Banner!
Although he had anticipated the price for premium membership...
Seeing the recharge screen with his own eyes, Su Yuan still felt like swearing.
Initially charging sixty thousand is just a rookie benefit, because the actual cost to open a month of premium membership is a staggering one hundred thousand!
A hundred thousand! Enough to open memberships for countless mobile apps, Taixu Sect is practically daylight robbery!
But having come this far, can Su Yuan really give up?
With a resolute bite of his teeth and determination in his heart, six thousand yuan vanished from his account, accompanied by a clear and pleasant notification sound in his ear.
"Congratulations to the new user ’AAA Su Yuan (part-timer @Taihua High School)’ for becoming a premium member of the Taixu Illusion Realm!"
"Premium membership provides the following benefits..."
Su Yuan carefully examined the new features this sixty thousand yuan had bought for him.
The first is the ability to transfer his AI model to a Spiritual Ability Flash Disk as a spiritual energy data stream.
There’s no need to mention exclusive download speeds, exclusive scenarios, and functions like entering the Taixu Main City for fun.
As for what’s above premium membership, like Gold VIP and Purple Gold VIP, Su Yuan didn’t even dare look.
"Better hurry and craft my Cyber Ten Thousand Souls Banner."
Su Yuan opted for single-player mode, entering a completely self-controlled custom world.
At the moment, this world is a blank slate, requiring the least computation power from the T490 login pod.
Next, Su Yuan needed to customize an AI life soul template to transfer to the Spiritual Ability Flash Disk he’d already inserted in the login pod.
If the transferred data is recognized by the system as a life soul, he could not only complete the Ten Thousand Souls Banner task but also finish the mission of bringing "New World" materials into the Main World, known as "Demonic Arrival."
In conclusion, success or failure hinges on this.
However, as Su Yuan formally began the operation, he got snagged at the first challenge of modeling.
Whose template should be used for modeling?
Even in the boundless Taixu Illusion Realm, you can’t just create anything you want.
Firstly, Su Yuan’s premium membership only supports modeling below the Foundation Establishment Stage.
Secondly, if the modeling process relies entirely on imagination, then the final product will be as flimsy as a castle in the air.
This kind of fictional product might barely run within the Taixu Illusion Realm, but once transferred, it’s like buggy code, and the entire data stream would be utterly ruined.
To obtain a model with minimal bugs, a reference template is absolutely necessary.
This template could be spiritual beasts or spirit plants from the database, common things from the real world, or it could be the lively people around him.
The more familiar he is, the more authentic and complete the modeling data will be.
The first two options are unsuitable for crafting the Ten Thousand Souls Banner. Even if the system is dumb, it wouldn’t mistake them for life souls, so they’re directly ruled out.
Thus, the only templates left for Su Yuan are his acquaintances.
Yet... who should he use as the template for crafting the Ten Thousand Souls Banner?
Chen Nuoyi, Chu Lanxi, or Yin Qiyue, Wu Ziying, Wu Xingqi, Xiao Kong?
Surely not Jin Hao.
No matter who’s used as a reference, it’s somewhat inappropriate; it might infringe on their likeness rights.
After pondering for a long time, a flash of inspiration suddenly struck Su Yuan’s mind:
"Speaking of the person I understand most, and who is most suitable as a life soul template... isn’t that right in front of me?"
Su Yuan muttered, glancing down at his own hands.
Indeed! The person most suited as a reference template is himself, Su Yuan!
He understands himself best, and using himself as a reference template, the life soul cultivated would undoubtedly be bug-free!
Having decided on this, Su Yuan first had the Taixu Illusion Realm scan his appearance and various data.
A mirror-image Su Yuan appeared in front of Su Yuan’s true form.
Then Su Yuan began inputting personality and thinking patterns into this copy.
"Personality... kind, helpful, idealistic with ambition, and my thinking pattern surely is the stable and reliable kind..."
"Whoa, why did my copy suddenly collapse?"
"What does it mean by fantasy level 90%, reality level 10%?"
"Fine, I’m evil, selfish, I’ll stop at nothing to achieve my goals, is that okay..."
"What the—how did the reality level suddenly shoot to 99%! Are they deliberately trying to defame me? Is Taixu Illusion Realm in cahoots with the stupid system?"
Gazing at the AI model whose eyes were gradually coming to life and who was now brimming with demonic aura, Su Yuan was utterly speechless.
He subtly felt that using himself as the template to create an AI model was a mistake.
But as Su Yuan hesitated whether to erase this AI model and switch to a milder template, a familiar "ding-dong" notification ring in his ear.
[Congratulations to the host for discovering materials suitable for the main soul of the Ten Thousand Souls Banner!]
???
[Though the Ten Thousand Souls Banner is a low-cost and easy-to-use demonic magical treasure, there are differences between banners.]
[If crafted with the humble life souls of ordinary humans, the resentful souls within the banner won’t be very aggressive, and its attack power won’t be strong. But if a naturally-born demon soul is used to consecrate the banner, the crafted Ten Thousand Souls Banner will have over three times the power of a regular banner.]
[The person before the host is a naturally-born demonic type. If used as the main soul, your Ten Thousand Souls Banner’s power will exceed ten times that of a regular banner!]
Su Yuan: "..."
Can I take this as a compliment?
And is this stupid system blind-eyed! The AI model in front looks exactly like me, yet it didn’t recognize that it’s me?
Still, Su Yuan just complained a bit internally, having grown quite accustomed to the system’s unreliability.
Since the system thinks the AI life soul modeled after Su Yuan is the best fit for consecration, then it’ll have to do.
Su Yuan sighed, used his illusion realm permissions to lock all actions of this AI model, and lifted the Chi Yuan Sword in his hand, striking down with one slash.
The head fell slowly from the neck, and the cyber soul floated out from the fake body.
True—I kill myself!
He used the Soul Capturing Technique of the Ten Thousand Souls Banner to capture the life soul emitting black aura and utilized the premium membership permissions to start scanning the life soul data.
Then, he began transferring!
As he chose to transfer, a new screen popped up before Su Yuan, showing the option of "Transfer Quantity."
Su Yuan thought for a bit, initially pulling the transfer quantity to "1000," then clicked confirm.
With T490’s computing power, transferring just a thousand Qi Cultivation Seventh Layer life souls’ data should not be too taxing...right?
Yet as soon as the transfer progress bar began, the pure white display before Su Yuan started to lose frames and jitter.
His mouth twitched slightly; is this really all T490 can offer?
Then, another popup appeared in front of Su Yuan:
"Current login pod lacks sufficient computing power; would you like to activate network mode to borrow friend’s computing power?"
"Oh! There’s actually such a feature?"
Su Yuan’s eyes brightened and he immediately pressed confirm.
Then, another new screen jumped in front of Su Yuan, causing his vision to go dark:
"Borrowing friend’s computing power is exclusive permissions for Gold VIPs; would you like to recharge ninety thousand to activate Gold VIP?"
Taixu Sect, I’m so annoyed!
