"Handsome, right? Haha!" Old Feng joked.
"Indeed handsome!" Jiang Yuan agreed wholeheartedly.
How long had it been since the Beast Fighting Competition? The Undead had already advanced to Commander-level.
Unknowingly, the Undead System had become the most powerful system.
Afterward, with Old Feng's help, Jiang Yuan re-signed a contract with the Three-Eyed Underworld General, directly recalling it into the Netherworld Space.
Once it entered, Jiang Yuan truly understood how vast the Netherworld Space was.
Such a spacious area indeed needed more Undead to fill it.
"Go to the fourth underground level and test its current strength. I have a project that's about to be completed, and I need to follow up on it," Old Feng said.
Jiang Yuan also wanted to test the Three-Eyed Underworld General's current strength, so he took the elevator down to the fourth underground level.
The fourth underground level was a large training ground, constructed from thick steel walls and a type of hard white stone, containing many testing instruments capable of resisting magic below Advanced Level.
"Three-Eyed Underworld General, come out!" Jiang Yuan quickly summoned the Three-Eyed Underworld General.
"Bang!"
As the Three-Eyed Underworld General stomped its foot, Jiang Yuan immediately felt a dull tremor in the ground.
One had to know this was underground, and for it to still have such power, one could imagine how much the Three-Eyed Underworld General's own weight had increased.
"Clack~!!"
The Three-Eyed Underworld General's clacking sound made his eardrums itch slightly.
The difference between Commander-level and Warrior-level was truly immense; it was a completely different tier.
"Come, test how strong your current power is. Don't hold back," Jiang Yuan said.
Of course, he wouldn't use any power other than Water System; who knew if this training ground had any recording devices? It wouldn't be good if it was recorded.
Upon hearing this, the Three-Eyed Underworld General couldn't be happy at all.
Because it no longer had its great broadsword; the great broadsword that had accompanied it for who knows how long was lost in the Ancient Capital.
Even if it found it, it wouldn't be able to use it.
Its body was too large; holding it would be like holding a small dagger.
Jiang Yuan also understood its thoughts and said, "It's alright, I'll forge you an even bigger broadsword later, so you can continue to be the nation's sword king."
Hearing this, the Three-Eyed Underworld General became happy and was eager to begin the test.
However, before the test, Jiang Yuan called Old Feng again.
Only after clarifying how to use all the equipment here did the test officially begin.
For a time, various roars erupted in the underground training ground.
As soon as Old Feng finished his work, he rushed down.
"How is it? Are you satisfied with the Three-Eyed Underworld General's strength?"
"Satisfied, extremely satisfied!" Jiang Yuan nodded vigorously.
The previous test had completely exceeded his expectations.
What he was most satisfied with was that the Three-Eyed Underworld General's third eye could release fear emotions.
If one's consciousness was not firm enough, demons would submit, and mages would have their spellcasting interrupted.
"Good that you're satisfied. Shouldn't you research the feasibility of fusion magic with me now?" Old Feng said.
In the end, he couldn't escape it.
Jiang Yuan had no reason to refuse, after all, Old Feng truly gave him good things without any hesitation.
If he maintained a good relationship, he would always be able to get things that enhanced his strength in the future.
......
Ancient Capital.
"Big sister, this flower is for you."
A cute little girl, like a porcelain doll, held a fresh flower and presented it to the seemingly ordinary woman in front of her.
The woman took the flower and smiled, "Thank you."
However, when she smelled the flower, her expression instantly turned cold, and her eyes became terrifyingly deep.
"Research Institute," she whispered softly, and the flower in her hand drifted down, turning into ashes and scattering in mid-air.
......
Five days later.
Following a sky-shattering boom in the Research Institute.
Old Feng's voice came from within the smoke.
"No, no, this kind of fusion operation has absolutely no potential for widespread use; it's too dangerous!"
Behind him, Jiang Yuan wiped the dust from his face, remaining silent.
Without the Beijiang's shared talent as a research foundation, and without a demon like the Four-Colored Demon that could release fusion spells, the research was almost impossible to advance.
During this time, it was entirely like building a tall tower in the air, without solid ground beneath it.
Jiang Yuan did suggest using external objects as a fusion medium.
The result was obvious.
They all exploded like bombs, impossible to control.
"Let's try again." Hardship couldn't defeat Old Feng; he immediately became full of fighting spirit.
The more difficult the research, the more determined he became!
Just as the two were preparing to throw themselves back into the research.
"Old Feng, where is the imperial jade seal?" A voice came from outside.
Immediately after, the researcher Feng Mu walked in.
Feng Mu was a Space mage and had contributed a lot to the research of the imperial jade seal.
Old Feng said without thinking, "Oh, the imperial jade seal? I took it for special research."
Special research was their secret code, meaning it was taken for use. Superficial work still had to be done to give an explanation to the higher-ups.
"Who has it?" Feng Mu quickly pressed.
Old Feng looked at him strangely: "What's wrong?"
"The previous conclusion was wrong," Feng Mu smiled awkwardly: "The Space guidance on the imperial jade seal cannot be shielded."
"What?!"
Old Feng was startled: "How could it be wrong? Wasn't it very certain at the time?"
"There's no way around it; this is the First Emperor's imperial jade seal. There are too many secrets on it, and besides, the imperial jade seal's previous grade was comparable to an Emperor-level magic tool. Research errors are unavoidable," Feng Mu said helplessly.
Hearing this, Old Feng and Jiang Yuan exchanged glances.
This was bad.
If it couldn't be shielded, then the unknown object attracted by the imperial jade seal would eventually come to Jiang Yuan's side.
Jiang Yuan was also very flustered at this moment.
He was already highly confident that the imperial jade seal was attracting the Sha Abyss.
He wasn't against coveting the armor robe, but that would require sufficient strength.
Otherwise, wearing the armor robe would mean Death, meaning becoming a puppet of the Ancient King.
"What if it has already recognized a master?" Old Feng asked.
"Already recognized a master?" Feng Mu was stunned, remembering that Old Feng's secondary system was Undead System, so he asked in return: "Has the imperial jade seal recognized you as its master?"
"Not me, him." Old Feng pointed at Jiang Yuan and said.
"Is there no way to completely shield it?" Jiang Yuan asked.
"It's not that there's no way, but it's a bit complicated. I need your cooperation," Feng Mu said.
"As long as it can be shielded, I will definitely cooperate." Jiang Yuan agreed without hesitation.
Feng Mu nodded and looked at Old Feng, saying, "Then I'll have to take him to my place for some time."
"You can take him, but this time you can't say it went wrong," Old Feng said, feigning seriousness.
"It definitely won't go wrong this time, you can rest assured!"
Hearing Feng Mu's promise, Old Feng and Jiang Yuan felt much more at ease.
Feng Mu took Jiang Yuan to another laboratory.
