The steel-forged experimental base, guarded every five steps.
Soldiers and strong men from the Seven Western Countries were stationed here.
Van der Weber passed through layers of guards and entered the building of the experimental base.
He was the famous 'Extraordinary Body Refining and Casting Master' of the Deni Country.
The extraordinary abilities of the West Continent differ from those of the East Continent, entirely derived from bloodline awakening.
Therefore, the extraordinary abilities in the West are passed down through the bloodline, not through some cultivation method.
This resulted in the majority of transcendents having a superficial understanding and knowledge of extraordinary abilities.
The further issue is the lack of means to apply extraordinary power.
In the East Continent, there are various magic artifacts, arrays, and even military formations Sha Qi, it has even developed to the point where 'Artificial Dao' can be achieved through military formations!
This can only be accomplished with a fundamental understanding of extraordinary power.
On this point, the West Continent lags far behind.
However, the West is not entirely without attempts to deconstruct extraordinary power fundamentally.
Extraordinary Body Refining and Casting Masters are such pioneers.
Initially, they utilized the corpses of deceased transcendents, dissected, refined, extracted materials, and eventually crafted instruments with extraordinary power.
Later, it gradually developed to the point of using living people for refining...
In the West, transcendents are all nobles, so extraordinary body refining and casting quickly became a first-class forbidden practice, banned by all countries!
However, although publicly banned, each country secretly continued research.
Some instruments with extraordinary power, weapons, armor, etc., often fetched astronomical prices in private trades among the nobility.
Then, thirty-one years ago, the Western Continent Alliance Army crossed the sea to the East Continent, invading the Da Lan Dynasty.
In this battle, the alliance army was ultimately defeated.
This battle not only made the Seven Western Countries realize that there is peak power above the prince level, but also that there is a gap between them and the East Continent in the application of extraordinary power!
The Da Lan Dynasty was still technologically at the cold weapons era, and the Seven Western Countries' use of extraordinary power was also at the 'cold weapons era' level.
So when the Da Lan Dynasty began extensively studying Western technology and conducted the Mingxin Reformation, the Seven Western Countries also launched a 'reformation'ββ
Each nation lifted the ban on extraordinary body refining and casting, issued clear laws to restrict it, and prohibited actions that broke the bottom line.
Then, each country strived to obtain various cultivation methods and secret manuals from the East Continent while vigorously developing extraordinary body refining and casting.
The West Continent lacked exotic beasts, greatly limiting cultivation development; even with methods, obtaining cultivation resources was challenging.
Moreover, the linguistic and cultural differences between the two continents made it difficult to truly understand many cultivation secret manuals.
Therefore, the Seven Western Countries focused on extraordinary body refining and casting.
The past thirty-one years have undoubtedly been a golden era for all extraordinary body refining and casting masters!
Van der Weber rose to prominence during this period, ultimately being appointed as the Imperial Family's official extraordinary casting master by the Deni Country's Royalty.
He entered the experimental building, took the elevator down to the third underground level, and passed through three checkpoints and identity verification to finally enter the core areaββ
Inside the factory, a massive mechanical device connected to the ceiling was centrally placed, resembling a cylindrical chimney.
Dozens of experimenters were busy with their tasks, all stopping to pay respects upon seeing Van der Weber.
Van der Weber was one of the two team leaders of the [Twilight of the Gods] experiment and a core member of the project.
Without his proposal, [Twilight of the Gods] would not exist.
"Leader Weber."
A middle-aged man with a beard, glasses, and dark skin approached Van der Weber, barely concealing his anger:
"Why did you arbitrarily alter my plan?!"
Van der Weber looked at him arrogantly.
Massimo Calvin, the other team leader of the [Twilight of the Gods] experiment and a Mei Jia Country native, was the finest atomic expert in the whole West.
Van der Weber provided the extraordinary level technical support for [Twilight of the Gods], while Massimo Calvin delivered the physics level technical support.
As an extraordinary body refining and casting master, Van der Weber was undoubtedly a transcendent, specifically a Marquis Level strongman (Martial Arts Master).
Although Massimo Calvin had a renowned scientific reputation, he was a mere mortal.
Even though Mei Jia Country awarded him an honorary marquis title, to Van der Weber, he remained an inferior 'Flat Blood Clan,' unworthy of sitting on equal footing with a true noble like himself.
"Calvin, watch your words."
Van der Weber lifted his chin, speaking disdainfully.
Yet Massimo Calvin was not deterred, angrily questioning:
"Why alter my plan? Aren't you aware that any change in data could affect the final result and even endanger all of us!"
Their quarrel attracted everyone's attention, with prying eyes all around.
Van der Weber's face darkened as he rudely prodded Massimo Calvin's chest with his finger:
"Let me enlighten you, a worthless fool ignorant of extraordinary power, [Twilight of the Gods] targets a group possessing the highest power in the world. Their speed surpasses bullets! Depending solely on your piece of scrap iron, regardless of its power, will still fail to hit the target!"
