I, a cultivator, have ended up in the wizarding world

Chapter 585 Test

Gazing at the moonlight before him, Jieming's thoughts stirred slightly.

A moment later, the laboratory door was pushed open.

A black giant priest strode in and bowed respectfully.

"grown ups."

Behind it were two ordinary black giants, who together lifted a semi-transparent culture container.

Inside the container, a fist-sized metallic object floated silently in a highly concentrated energy liquid, with faint pulsations visible within. "As per your orders, I have brought an unhatched embryo."

Jemin nodded in satisfaction.

They were not only satisfied with the efficiency of the Black Giant Priest, but also with the convenience of the Fate System.

Just now, with a mere thought, he transmitted the command to all the black giant priests through the incense and sacred path.

The black giant priest who received the order immediately carried it out.

Of course, for Jemin, it's just a command transmitter; in a cultivation world, some mortals would call it a "divine oracle." As a system of deities, the incense-based religion naturally possesses the most basic function of communicating with believers.

If Jemin wanted, he could even keep track of the status of each Black Giant at any time.

He could receive information about what they were doing, what they were thinking, and even everything they perceived in real time through the Destiny System.

However, the cost of doing so is the continuous consumption of massive computing power.

He is not one of those "gods" who need faith to survive.

He's a wizard; instead of wasting his computing power constantly monitoring his followers, he should spend more time learning new knowledge.

Therefore, he usually only issues commands through the destiny system and does not receive feedback.

"Just put it there."

Jemin pointed to the experiment.

The black giant priest directed two of his men to place the cultivation containers, and then led them out the door.

Jemin walked to the front of the experiment and stared at the embryo in the container for a few seconds.

This is the embryo of a level 3 black giant, not yet ready to hatch, perfect for use in experiments.

He took out the ball of moonlight power, separated about half of it, and carefully poured it into the culture container.

The silvery light blended into the nutrient solution and slowly seeped into the embryo.

The pulsations on the surface of the embryo appeared to have increased slightly, but the change was not significant.

Jemin placed the container into a magic circle that had been prepared beforehand.

That was a specially designed incubation simulation array that could precisely control energy supply and environmental stimuli, completely simulating the state of an incubation pool. "Maintaining stable incubation."

He set the parameters, then turned around and went back to where he was going to start the experiment.

Looking at the remaining half of the Moonlight Power in his hand, Jemin thought for a moment and simply put it into his mouth.

The power of the moonlight entered my throat; it had no taste, only a cool sensation that spread from my throat throughout my body.

He closed his eyes, sat cross-legged, and began to sense the changes within his body.

The cool sensation traveled upwards and eventually converged near the sea of ​​consciousness.

Then, it began to seep into the soul.

It was slow and gentle, as mild as moonlight itself.

Jemin felt it carefully.

The power of the moonlight did not improve his cultivation level—after all, that amount was simply not enough.

But it was indeed touching his soul, giving a sense of "cleansing" those subtle impurities on the edge of his soul that were usually hard to detect. A moment later, Jemin opened his eyes.

"The effect is so-so."

He made an objective assessment.

In terms of pure effect, the power of moonlight cannot enhance the soul as much as those magical potions that specifically improve the purity of the soul.

Even if it's just a level one soul-type potion, its effect is at least ten times that of this experience.

However, the power of the moon has one unparalleled advantage...

It's free.

Or rather, its cost is close to zero.

All it takes is setting up a magic array and consuming a little activation energy to continuously collect moonlight.

Moreover, unlike taking magic potions, this stuff doesn't cause drug resistance.

As long as the soul can digest it, any amount is acceptable.

Jemin stood up, a thoughtful look in his eyes.

Just for this effect alone, the power of the moonlight is worth collecting on a large scale.

He strode to the front of the experiment and pulled up a detailed map of the Purgatory Sulfur Plane.

On the light screen, the terrain, resource distribution, and black giant settlements of the entire plane were all clearly marked.

"Set up a magic circle at regular intervals to optimize collection efficiency..."

Jemin tapped on the map with his finger.

According to the knowledge of the Great Dao Library, there is a limit to the amount of moonlight that can be collected within a unit area.

More magic arrays are not necessarily better; spreading them out too densely is a waste of resources.

The most reasonable solution is to place one at regular intervals, so that each magic circle covers its own area.

He marked the locations of the first batch of magic arrays on the map, mainly distributed around the black giant settlements, while also covering remote but open areas. Then, he once again issued a divine oracle through the Destiny System.

This time the content is more detailed:

"All Black Giant Priests, heed my command. From this day forward, a Moon Gathering Magic Circle shall be set up around each Black Giant sub-colony. The specifications and setup method are as follows..."

He transmitted the detailed array diagrams, rune structures, and energy node requirements to each Black Giant Priest through the Destiny System. "Once the setup is complete, integrate moonlight collection with your sacrificial rituals. During each ritual, collectively gaze at the moon to strengthen your conceptual identification with it."

This is a very important step.

The power of the moon's essence originates from a "concept".

The stronger the Black Giants' identification with the moon, the stronger this concept becomes, and the more lunar essence they collect.

By linking the collection array with the sacrifice, two goals can be achieved at once.

After arranging everything, Jemin turned to look at the culture container.

The embryo inside is undergoing obvious changes.

The metal mass, originally the size of a fist, has now swelled to the size of an adult's head.

The surface pulses are stronger, and the outlines of limbs can be vaguely seen taking shape.

Jemin narrowed his eyes, activating his All-Powerful Eye.

In his view, the information inside the embryo was evolving wildly, each step much faster than that of a normal black giant embryo.

"Was it the power of the moonlight that accelerated the hatching?"

He quickly noted down the phenomenon.

After a while, the embryo had expanded to the point of bursting its original container, and development was finally complete.

The metal mass suddenly contracted, then expanded, contracted, then expanded again...

With one last violent pulsation, the outer shell cracked, and a black creature crawled out.

A level 3 black giant.

It was over ten meters tall at birth, and its body was covered with a distinctive layer of black liquid metal.

It raised its head blankly and looked at Jieming, its eyes filled with the bewilderment unique to newborns.

"Lie down."

Jemin pointed to the metal flat surface that had just been made using alchemy.

The black giant paused for a moment, then obediently climbed up and lay down.

With a wave of his hand, a large number of magic arrays unfolded and began to test it.

Activating his all-seeing eye and alchemy, he probed with his mental energy, scrutinizing every detail from the torso to the limbs, from the energy core to the soul's fluctuations. The examination lasted for several minutes.

The result surprised him somewhat.

Based on the data, this black giant falls within the "normal range".

In terms of outward appearance, they seem to be slightly more agile than ordinary black giants: their eyes are more flexible, their reactions are faster, and their perception of the surrounding environment is more acute.

However, this difference is very small and does not exceed the normal fluctuation range of black giants.

"The sample size is too small."

Jemin withdrew his mental energy and wrote in his notebook:

[Test of the Influence of Lunar Power on the Black Giant Embryo (First Test)]

[Amount Injected: Half a portion of Moon Essence Power (approximately half the total energy of a level one sorcery spell)]

[Results: Hatching speed increased by approximately 30%; no obvious abnormalities in individual characteristics; slight but not significant enhancement in spirituality]

Conclusion: More samples are needed for testing.

He closed the notebook and glanced at the black giant.

The guy was lying on the flat, staring at him expectantly, not knowing what to do next.

"Go down and find your tribe's priest."

Jemin waved.

The black giant got up and trotted outside.

Jemin watched its retreating figure, lost in thought.

The power of the moonlight should not be harmful to creatures like black giants, whose soul power is relatively weak.

We still need to test it a few more times to at least confirm the specific effects.

He turned and looked out the window.

In the distance, in the settlement of the black giants, moonlight collection arrays are rising from the ground.
