Immortality begins with meditation puppets

"Quick, come closer so I can slap you and see if I'm dreaming!"

"A body like that of a mythical creature, every detail is as perfect as if it were born of nature, it can speak and think, it is definitely a giant warrior!"

"These are the Creation Runes! The core runes for creating the Colossus!"

"Not only the Creation Rune, but all the other runes he drew were also high-grade. The key is that there were no mistakes! Not only were there no mistakes, but every single rune was 100% successful. This is simply unbelievable!"

You can't become a weapon engineer without being a tech fanatic. And if you don't have a passion for runes and weapon crafting, you won't become a weapon engineer. After all, being anonymous and working yourself to the bone with a bunch of runes is nothing compared to the prestige of wielding a weapon.

As long as this group of people demonstrates overwhelming strength on the technical level, they will be immediately convinced. Their previous doubts and disdain will be completely forgotten. Now, when they look at Su Qing, they can see a halo behind him. This is not a person, but a god descended from the sky!

"Little Su, where did you learn such skills? It's incredible, truly incredible!"

"Brother Su, this way, this way. I've just improved a rune, could you give me some pointers?"

"Master Su, my dear Grandpa Su, please sit, please sit down, please take a seat of honor. Tea, please serve tea, please serve the best tea, so that Master Su can have a good chat with us."

The way they went from "Little Su" to "Master Su" demonstrated the emotional intelligence of these weapon engineers. Su Qing glanced at them and, sure enough, the one called "Master Su" was the strongest, a level 5 weapon engineer, while the one called "Little Su" was only a level 3 engineer.

When he saw Luo Bing's gaze sweep over him, the proud Luo Bing wanted to puff out his chest proudly, but when he turned his eyes to the Peng King God behind him, he unconsciously lowered his head again.

Luo Bing drew his first rune at the age of twelve, becoming a divine weapon apprentice. At eighteen, he forged his first divine weapon, becoming the youngest divine weapon engineer at Base 5. Now, at thirty-six, he is a level three engineer. He has the right to be proud and rarely looks up to anyone. Even Li Sanshuang, the strongest level five engineer in the base, has never bowed his head to him, because Li Sanshuang is already old and his divine sense has passed its peak, with its upper limit locked. Luo Bing, on the other hand, is brave and forging ahead. It is only a matter of time before he takes Li Sanshuang's place.

He couldn't replace the person in front of him because their aptitude was far inferior. It wasn't that he was inferior to him as a person, but rather that he was inferior to him in terms of skill with runes and divine weapons.

"This young man is only in his thirties, yet he's already a level three engineer. He's young and promising, with a bright future ahead of him!"

Su Qing, whose face was much younger than Luo Bing's and who should be called his uncle by age, patted him on the shoulder and spoke in the tone of an elder, which made the people around him feel an indescribable sense of incongruity.

He's in his thirties, a level three engineer, so his future looks promising.

You're only eighteen years old, and you're at least a level five engineer. What's so special about that?
Su Qing, however, did not feel that something was wrong.

Although his body is now eighteen, his soul has undergone two or three hundred years of refinement. In the Tianyuan Realm, he spends his days with a group of Nascent Soul True Monarchs who are much older than him, and he can still pretend to be a young man. When he comes to the Scripture God Realm, in front of these people who are at most a hundred years old, wouldn't he be an old man?

As for saying that Luo Bing is young and promising, that was just a spontaneous remark.

In his thirties, his spiritual sense was already as strong as that of a Golden Core cultivator. If this were in the Tianyuan Realm, he wouldn't be considered young and promising; he would definitely be considered a potential Nascent Soul cultivator.

"Master Su has a keen eye. Xiao Luo is indeed the most outstanding among his peers in my Base No. 5. His research achievements in recent years are also evident to all. It's just a pity that we, the older generation of special weapon engineers, have limited abilities and can teach him very little, which has delayed his growth. Now that Master Su is here, I believe that under Master Su's guidance, Xiao Luo's future is definitely something to look forward to."

Li Sanshuang, who was over eighty years old and had thinning white hair, tried to ease the awkward atmosphere.

Unexpectedly, Su Qing patted him on the shoulder and said, "You are young and promising, with a bright future ahead!"

"Haha, I didn't expect you to be so witty, Professor Su. Alright, alright, I'm young and promising too!"

Li Sanshuang was taken aback at first. If Su Qing's eyes hadn't been sincere, he would have thought that this kid was deliberately making fun of him. At this moment, he would have thought that Su Qing was just like Luo Bing, a genius freak who was not good at dealing with people and could not speak, but only had outstanding skills in the field of divine weapon runes.

Whatever, who cares!
With his current abilities, what's a few nonsensical words? Even if he points his finger at Li Sanshuang's nose and curses him, Li Sanshuang can still listen with a smile.

What Li Sanshuang didn't expect was that in the days that followed, Su Qingzhen would give him a chance to be young and promising!

······
Time flies, the sun and the moon fly by.

Thirty years have passed since Su Qing, seemingly the chosen one, suddenly appeared in the world.

Thirty years—how many thirty-year periods does one have in a lifetime?
"Me, Li Sanshuang, can I really live another thirty years? Has Master Su developed a new divine weapon to extend our lives?"

Thirty years have passed, and Li Sanshuang, who should have died of old age long ago, is exactly the same as he was thirty years ago. Although he still looks like an old man with thinning hair, under the guidance of Master Su, he works like a young person, working 996 and receiving knowledge baptism in the spiritual network. His days are full, and he really has no spare time. Now 120 years old, Li Sanshuang, who has lived a human miracle, has long realized the value of Su Qing's words back then: "Young and promising, with a bright future."

He really didn't treat him like an old man; he just exploited him like a young man!

To call it exploitation is a bit harsh; according to Su Qing, they are all contributing to the liberation of all mankind.

But to be honest, before he appeared, everyone's situation was far from as good as it is now. He was never this tired back then. Although everyone would try their best until they were powerless, there were limits to human physiology. When they were too tired to bear it, they could always rest without any psychological burden.

But when Su Qing arrived, he first created the Divine Weapon Heavenly Spider. This Divine Weapon Heavenly Spider landed in their bodies and not only repaired various hidden physical ailments, but also simulated the function of any organ that was aging and malfunctioning, allowing this centenarian to burst forth with the heart of a young man and continuously output work.

Alas, they dare not even rest. The cause of liberating all mankind has hijacked their minds. Even without Su Qing's urging, they feel that resting is a sin, as long as they can do their best!
"So be it, it's just another thirty years. In the last thirty years, I've already replaced my Heavenly Spider Heart, Heavenly Spider Stomach, Heavenly Spider Large and Small Intestines... In another thirty years, my entire body, inside and out, will have to be replaced with divine weapons. By then, my soul will have reached its limit, and even if I wanted to share the burden with everyone, there would be no possibility left!"

Li Sanshuang muttered to himself. Although he said he would be exploited by Su Qing for another thirty years, in reality, he would gladly accept another thirty years of life to fight for the human race. In these thirty years, under Su Qing's leadership, the Survivors Alliance's weapon-making skills had made rapid progress.

With Su Qing integrating resources and connecting five underground bases, each divine weapon factory operates independently, producing divine weapons of unprecedented quality and quantity.

In the past, there were too many people in the Survivor Alliance who were qualified to become Divine Weapon Generals, but unfortunately, the production of Divine Weapons could not keep up, and it was no longer possible to quickly increase the number of troops.

However, while the production of divine weapons can keep up, the number of divine weapon warriors who can wield them cannot keep up.

Fortunately, twenty years ago, after the ten-year promise made by Su Qing was fulfilled, he did indeed lead the creatures that had been lingering underground for over a hundred years to see the light of day again and launch the first anti-demon annihilation battle.

In that battle, from the five underground bases, all the divine soldiers were deployed. Under the leadership of the two giant divine soldiers, Divine Silver and Two-Headed Dragon God, Su Qing, the soldiers utterly defeated the evil gods and demons who had fallen to the ground, and recovered 50% of the territory. From then on, they shared the world with the evil gods and demons.

The creatures that returned to the ground had a much larger living space, and the difficulty of obtaining various resources was also incomparable to the past. Taking this opportunity, Su Qing proposed a policy of having more children and more people for the common cause of all mankind.

Over the past twenty years, the previously dwindling population of the Divine Realm has experienced a population explosion. In the blink of an eye, twenty years have passed, and they now have nearly a million more divine soldiers at their disposal.

The new generation of Divine Weapon Generals have a wider variety of Divine Weapons to choose from than ever before, and their quality is also higher. According to Su Qing, people are the most precious resource. These Divine Weapons can be rebuilt if they are destroyed, but once people are gone, they are truly gone. As long as the number of people increases, they will eventually drive all the demons back to Red Moon. Then they will storm Red Moon and completely wipe these scum out of this world.

"I just don't know if I can hold on until that day!" Li Sanshuang sighed.

"Coach Li, what are you doing here? Go grab a good spot! Today is the day Master Su ignites the level six divine weapon. If you're late, there won't be any seats left!"

Luo Bing, a man in his sixties with a promising future of thirty years ahead of him and now a Level 4 Special Forces Engineer, hurriedly passed by Instructor Li with his bag in hand.

Li Sanshuang touched his thinning forehead and exclaimed, "I was so focused on working hard for another thirty years that I forgot today is the day Su Qing's level six divine weapon is ignited. But at my age, surely no one will refuse to give me their seat?"

"What are you thinking? You're covered in divine weapons right now, and your body is much stronger than ours. How can you expect others to give up their seats for you?"

Luo Bing looked at Li Sanshuang's two exquisite long legs with envy.

Hearing him say that, Li Sanshuang immediately calmed down.

"Since I'm in better health than all of you, so what if you take the seats first? Just give up your seats obediently, or I'll let you experience the power of my centenarian's fist!"

Li Sanshuang was smug. Among a group of divine weapon engineers, he was the oldest and had the most broken body parts, so he now had a divine weapon skeleton that was incomparable to the other divine weapon engineers.

"You think it's just us Divine Weapon Engineers? Outside the ignition base, there are hordes of Divine Weapon Juniors, mostly Level 6 Divine Weapons! We want to witness the birth of this Divine Weapon as soon as possible. Don't these Divine Weapon Juniors want to see it too? If you want to mess with them, your Divine Weapon Bones aren't enough to break!"

Luo Bing curled his lip, and seeing that Li Sanshuang finally panicked, he revealed his true purpose.

"Instructor Li, didn't Commander Su assign us, the Divine Weapon Engineers, Shadow Guards? Call them all out and escort us over there. Clear the area for us. These young Divine Weapon Generals are causing a ruckus. They want to get to the front row to watch. Do they even know what they're doing? Only if we, the Divine Weapon Engineers, get a close look at the magnificent and imposing Divine Weapons of Commander Su, might we gain some inspiration."

Upon hearing this, Li Sanshuang hesitated for a moment, but looking out the window, he saw that the sky and the ground outside were crowded with divine soldiers, and the queue stretched from the ignition base all the way to the vicinity of their research and development center building. He immediately understood how difficult it would be to grab a seat now.

With that, Luo Bing and the others enthusiastically connected to the divine consciousness network and, through a series of authorization authentications, summoned all the shadow guards.

Suddenly, a series of handsome men in black appeared in the research and development center, which had previously been empty except for the researchers.

These handsome men in black, their bodies swaying like seaweed with the changing light, appeared extremely alluring, yet they were undeniably chilling.

During the great battle that slammed into the earth ten years ago, the despicable demons tried to harm these divine weapon engineers. Although Master Su was prepared and had arranged for some divine weapon juniors to guard them, several divine weapon engineers were still brutally killed by those demons.

For this reason, Master Su specially created this batch of shadow guards for them. These shadow guards are all supported by Master Su's divine sense. They will not manifest to disturb their daily work, but they will appear immediately when their personal safety is threatened. They are reliable, powerful, and reassuring.

At this moment, as these shadow guards led them out of the research and development center, their powerful aura instantly suppressed the noisy young divine soldiers outside. Nearly thirty level-five divine weapons, all personally crafted by Su Qing and equipped with creation-type runes, were powerful divine weapons with autonomous combat capabilities, far superior to these young divine soldiers.

What troubled Li Sanshuang and the others was that these young generals of divine weapons were originally only enthusiastic about the level six divine weapon that had not yet been unveiled.

The moment they revealed these shadow guards, their fervor immediately turned to the shadow guards beside them.

"What kind of divine weapon is this? I've never seen one like it before!"

"You engineers of divine weapons, you have good stuff but don't share it, you secretly keep it for yourselves!"

"Look, this divine weapon can even glare at me! It must be a Creation Divine Weapon! It's so cool! If I had a Creation Divine Weapon, I wouldn't need to go to the Divine Sense Network for combat training every day. I could just let the divine weapon fight on its own and watch the show from home!"

"Touch it, and you won't let me? You're so stingy!" (End of Chapter)
