In the Half City Shop .

Although Mr . Fang didn't do any advertis.e.m.e.nts for his shop, the battle against the big demon had far better promotional effects than any advertis.e.m.e.nt campaigns .

More importantly, each customer could enter the shop and see the big demon free of charge .

After this battle, the high-level people in the inner city of Half City who were trying to do things stopped their schemes against Fang Qi's shop .

Obviously, with the example set by the big demon, they began to weigh their options again . Although they wanted to take the good stuff from the shop, they needed to be alive to enjoy it . After all, even the big demon was suppressed by the shop .

After this battle, Half City still looked chaotic, but it was more peaceful and stable than before .

Meanwhile, the old games in Jiuhua City, such as Resident Evil, Diablo 2, and the Legend of the Sword and Fairy, were released in the Half City Shop one by one . These games covered many genres including modern fiction, occidental fantasy, and oriental Xianxia, and they attracted large groups of players .

In the category of Xianxia, the shop now had the Legend of the Sword and Fairy, Jade Dynasty, and even Shu Mountain . The cultivators were excited that they could experience all kinds of cultivation factions and see many powerful spiritual spells and spiritual treasures .

The elements such as cultivators, warriors, spiritual spells, and spiritual treasures were too common for them . In contrast, the science-based civilization in Resident Evil and Grand Theft Auto 5 and the magical civilization in Diablo 2 and Harry Potter brought them more amazement and sense of novelty .

That was why the new games and movies attracted many players whenever they were released . For the players, the increase of cultivation strength was now second to the exciting experiences that they could have in various amazing and novel civilizations .

For this reason, even Grand Theft Auto 5, a leisure game for the cultivators, remained highly popular .

For example, after Jun Yangzi became fatigued from his research on the spiritual spells and spiritual artifacts in Shu Mountain, he would go and drive his beloved race car in Grand Theft Auto 5 while playing cla.s.sic music that he bought in Qzone . It was enjoyable to drive along the streets and try the local delicacies in this amazing and dazzling city .

Of course, it would be better if he partnered with several Daoist friends and robbed some banks, making small money while increasing their cultivation strengths and levels .

Besides, after they earned money, they could acquire the blueprints for these 'mechanical spiritual artifacts' and lots of fundamental knowledge about 'scientific artifact-making' .

For the forces such as the Wuwei Daoist Alliance, the research area wasn't limited to the high-end spiritual artifacts such as the Heavenly Mirror .

While the cost for going online in Mr . Fang's shop wasn't a big issue for them, the materials and research cost for the high-end spiritual artifact projects such as the Heavenly Mirror would easily drain the resources of Wuwei Daoist Alliance and bankrupt them .

Even the Morning Star Sea Realm found it was hard to afford to make a second imitation of the Heavenly Mirror after their first try .

Therefore, the artifact masters turned the focus of the research projects to the low-end but widely used objects such as magic instillation, new communication jades, and new cars .

For some forces, they found many new objects that they might use later, so it was not wrong to take the opportunity to get to know them better .

After all, while the advanced cultivators were studying the high-end objects, such as the Heavenly Mirror and the Purple-Green Dual Swords, the ordinary cultivators who couldn't handle these projects couldn't stay idle .

Li Haoran couldn't put too much time on the research of the super spiritual treasures such as the Heavenly Mirror; he would only learn from his master from time to time . He focused most of his energy on the items in Grand Theft Auto 5 .

At this moment, he was sitting at the long table in the research room with some artifact masters who were in his generation . The communication jade in his hand was obviously smaller and more exquisite than the one he was using . After he injected some spiritual essence in the jade, a vague shadow appeared on it, showing the scene of a battle between cultivators .

Li Haoran said, “I'm sure that you've seen this spiritual spell before; we are no strangers to spells such as Impartial shadows, Illusion Shadows, and voice transmission from 500 kilometers away . ”

In fact, some powerful cultivators could recreate the scenes that happened within one hour or even one day in an area by producing images with spiritual essence, so this was not unfamiliar to them .

“However, this kind of spell can't be used in the communication jade for ordinary cultivators . Do you guys have any suggestions?”

“Ugh…” The artifact masters looked at each other and said, “Maybe we can use the method of saving images with scrolls; the cost of producing the 3D pictures would too much . ”

“Besides, instead of controlling the new communication jade with a finger which is similar to the smartphones, we can use mental energy or spiritual essence to control it,” another artifact master said, “After all, the users of this type of communication jades will be mostly ordinary cultivators . For one thing, the jade can help increase the control of spiritual essence for ordinary cultivators . For another, it will save us a lot of time and energy . ”

“Indeed . The finger control is too hard to achieve,” several other middle-aged artifact masters nodded and said, “We'd better control it with spiritual essence and warrior qi . ”

“Right . I think we can also attach a storage jade slip to store important information . ”

“We can also make some small programs like those used in the cell phones . ”

After the brainstorm-session of the cultivators, the research project progressed very swiftly .

“Thank you for your suggestions . If we can produce the communication jade according to our designs and ideas, we will probably take the leader position in the market of communication jades in the entire cultivation world!”

“Besides,” Li Haoran said, “You must have experienced Lester's amazing method to disrupting his target's monitoring, security systems, and even communication . ”

The artifact masters all nodded .

Li Haoran said, “I call it communication warfare . We have studied spiritual spells all-year-round, but maybe we've neglected the effects of the communication in wars? Imagine what would happen if our enemies' communications are completely cut off in a war, but ours is intact . ”

Meanwhile, in the Taixi Faction .

The disciples who were healed looked listless and dull; their eyes didn't emit any spiritual light,

“This healing is effective, but there are some side effects left in them,” Feng Xi explained . “In fact, the addiction is too harmful, so we had to do this . I hope you don't blame us for this . ”

“Of course, we don't blame you!” The elders of the major factions said in hatred, “It's unforgivable that Dajin shelters this evil practice! If not for them, our disciples wouldn't have ended this way . Don't worry . After we go back, we'll gather forces from all major factions and wage war against Dajin together!”

“Wage war together!” Seeing the changes in their disciples, many cultivators joined in the declaration with hatred . “We have to destroy these evil people to vent our anger!”

“After we return, we'll report it to the Faction Masters and plan the war!”
