Li Shiming screamed miserably, his body convulsing uncontrollably, unimaginable pain striking directly at his soul.

    While Baili Jin Yan laughed wildly without restraint, he had no idea that at this moment, Li Shiming still had the spare mental capacity to calculate the situation of the Array Plate on the ground.

    The IBM z15 recorded the surface patterns of the Array Plate, and based on these patterns, although Li Shiming didn''t know the name of this Array, the basics of all Arrays were the same.

    He was also situated within the energy interior of the Array Plate, which allowed him to feel the energy flow of the Array more clearly.

    In front of him, a multitude of virtual energy routes were being drawn out, dense and intricate like a spider web.

    All these energy routes originated from the Array Plate on the ground; although they seemed disorderly, they actually followed extremely intricate rules.

    Even an ordinary Array Master couldn''t achieve such a colossal amount of calculations; it was equivalent to instantly completing months of work by the Array Master who created the Array Plate, and the calculations were continuous.

    Of course, a human brain couldn''t handle this, not even a Cultivator''s.

    But the IBM z15 could; no calculation was too complex for a large-scale computer to handle within its tolerable range of operations.

    However, as the calculations began, the IBM z15''s power consumption also sharply increased.

    To ensure the IBM z15''s power supply was stable, all nine ghost shadows were mobilized, pushing the efficiency of the perpetual motion generators to the extreme.

    One hundred and ninety CPUs, the crystallization of human technology, unleashed their terrifying computational power.

    Li Shiming''s screams grew even louder, and with the ability "Devil''s Sound in the Ear (Fake)," through the IBM z15''s multithreading operation, the IBM z15 managed to process a vast amount of computational data while simultaneously emitting – through his mouth – screams processed by "Devil''s Sound in the Ear (Fake)."

    The screams, because they lacked the fusion of Spiritual Energy, were significantly weakened in strength.

    Although he possessed a Metal Spirit Root, he practiced the secret techniques of the Holy Ice Sect, which provided him with an extremely strong defense against all kinds of mental attacks.

    If not for the fact that IBM z15''s screams had not a trace of Spiritual Energy fluctuation, Baili Jin Yan would not have been unknowingly affected.

    Meanwhile, Li Shiming also took action.

    He summoned the copper corpse, then collected the Soul-binding Rope and the Soul Piercing Needle into the machine room space.

    The copper corpse grasped his body in one swoop and moved through space with a strange twisting motion.

    Li Shiming wasn''t idle either; a "White Phosphorus Grenade" and a "Thermite Grenade" were simultaneously thrown from the machine room space.

    The copper corpse appeared next to the Array Plate, lightly tapped a few points on the Array Plate with its finger, and then vanished beyond the range of the energy cocoon created by the Array Plate in a flash.

    It seemed like a lot of movements, but in reality, they were completed in an instant.

    Li Shiming knew full well that Baili Jin Yan was not so easily dealt with, and the trouble caused by the IBM z15 wouldn''t stop Baili Jin Yan for long.

    Indeed, Baili Jin Yan was only affected for a moment, and it was during that brief moment that Li Shiming escaped the range of the Array Plate.

    "You''re courting death, you thief!" Baili Jin Yan emitted an enraged roar.

    He paid no attention to the "White Phosphorus Grenade" and the "Thermite Grenade" that had fallen to the ground; like other Cultivators who had never witnessed the bombs from the previous world''s military, he didn''t take notice of ordinary items without Spiritual Energy fluctuation.

    He also had that confidence; if Li Shiming were an equal to him, perhaps he would have been more cautious, taking extra care with the two mundane objects.

    Besides, by then, he had already been blinded by anger; a mere Qi Refining Fourth Level Cultivator, a thief who he regarded as having stolen his beloved, dared to play tricks in front of him.
