Chapter 1575: No. Tyrannical Tyrant applies for equipment
Below the heavenly tribulation.
Song Shuhang’s steel manifestation stood there blankly, the ‘core reactor’ hanging outside its stomach.
“Boom~”
The second wave of the heavenly tribulation fell, but the steel manifestation could only rely on its steel body to resist it because it lacked any skills.
The manifestation could carry out some simple commands from Song Shuhang such as serving tea and water, washing dishes, and mopping the floor.
However, it could also be controlled through his consciousness should the need arise.
Without any orders from Song Shuhang, it would simply stand still.
It had no tribulation-transcending formation, no supplementary magical techniques, and no cultivation techniques. If it wanted to transcend the tribulation, it would only be able to adopt Xuan Nu Sect’s Skylark’s method—standing right where one was and letting the tribulation lightning strike them, waiting and seeing whether they would die first or the heavenly tribulation would end first.
However, Senior Skylark’s method really only suited someone like her who possessed the bone of eternity. Besides her, it was virtually impossible to find anybody else in the universe who could transcend their tribulation in this way.
The tribulation lightning descended, and the steel manifestation was smashed to the ground.
The core reactor, which was hanging by its stomach, plopped to the ground alongside the rest of the steel manifestation’s body.
Its head turned to Song Shuhang, as if waiting for him to give it an order.
Fairy Dongfang Six remarked, “Why do I feel that it looks quite pitiful?”
Dharma King Creation said, “Maybe because it has the same face as our little friend Song Shuhang? Or is it because it looks like its intestines are falling out?”
“...” Song Shuhang.
Those aren’t intestines. If you really wanted to compare them with something, they would be equivalent to a cultivator’s golden core.
“It’s awaiting your orders,” Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword said. At this time, it hung on the back of the virtuous lamia, paying attention to the changes taking place at the scene of the tribulation.
Song Shuhang said, “Put the ‘core reactor’ back. Afterward, do your best to dodge... or resist the heavenly tribulation.”
This command was quite pointless, though.
The target-lock feature of the heavenly tribulation could not be evaded that easily, so the tribulation could only be resisted.
As a pet-shaped manifestation, it did not have the ability to carry out complex commands, so it was unknown if it could execute this particular command.
In addition, even if Song Shuhang controlled the ‘steel manifestation’ directly, he didn’t know what to do in the face of the Fifth Stage heavenly tribulation. This steel manifestation lacked any offensive power and defensive means.
It was doomed ever since it started to draw over heavenly tribulations in rapid succession. Even if it really did transcend the heavenly tribulation of the Fifth Stage, after a turn of its body, it might have already attracted the one of the Sixth Stage, and then the one of the Seventh Stage after that.

After receiving Song Shuhang’s order, the steel manifestation stretched out its hand, and pushed the ‘core reactor’ back into its stomach.
“Boom~”
The lightning tribulation descended once again.
This time, the steel manifestation began to resist the heavenly tribulation according to Song Shuhang’s orders. The heavenly tribulation’s target-lock feature was too strong. After the steel manifestation failed to evade it a few times, it finally decided to place its hands around its head.
At this time, it would be nice if the puppet maiden were here, Song Shuhang thought to himself.
The most suitable method for the steel manifestation to transcend its tribulation was undoubtedly the ‘crouching down while holding one’s head’ technique.
Wait!
“The manifestation doesn’t have any defensive means, but I remember that the immortal boat form has a protective cover.” As he thought of this, Song Shuhang immediately sent another order. “Change forms, and switch to the immortal boat or mecha form. Use the shield that comes with them to defend yourself.”
Whether or not it could survive depended on the luck of the steel manifestation.
“Clang, clang, clang.”
The steel manifestation transformed, and it took on the form of a shuttle-shaped immortal boat. The ‘shield’ that was used by the immortal boat when it flew in outer space was now activated.
Fairy Dongfang Six said, “This shield’s defense level should be about the Fifth or Sixth Stage. If it can keep this shield up, it might really be able to endure until the end of this heavenly tribulation.”
“I’m afraid that that will be quite difficult.” Song Shuhang smiled wryly, and said, “Because it’s out of spirit stones.”
Previously, he had taken out all of his spirit stones, and handed them over to Doudou so that he could transcend his tribulation. Besides that, the spirit stones that the mecha immortal boat had were now all depleted.
As such, this shield now depended entirely on the energy supplied by that ‘core reactor’.

Meanwhile.
At a junction between Jiangnan area and H city, a container truck was slowly driving on the highway.
“We found the signal! We’re finally sensing the energy fluctuations of the core reactor again!”
“Lock onto its position! This time, we can’t let it escape from our grasp.”
“It’s at H City. It isn’t too far away from us, we can get there in 10 minutes at most.”
“Great! We’ve finally found it after searching for so many days. This concerns our future and the general direction of our research. There is absolutely no room for mistakes. We must rush to it as quickly as possible.”
“Prepare our secret weapon. I want to see who it is that dared to steal our ‘core reactor’.”
??????
More than 10 minutes later.
The steel manifestation was still struggling to maintain the shield and resist the heavenly tribulation.
“Shuhang, can a steel manifestation have inner demons?” Dharma King Creation asked while pinching his chin.
Song Shuhang replied, “I think that that should not be possible. I don’t think it even fits the basic conditions for the inner demon tribulation to appear.”
Dharma King Creation replied, “That’s a shame...”
He had no chance to enter the stage today.
Fairy Dongfang Six said, “Someone is coming.”
Song Shuhang and Dharma King Creation raised their heads to look up at the same time.
In the distance, a container truck was approaching, and the truck seemed to carry a kind of ‘stealth’ function. At first glance, it looked transparent and invisible.
However, the several individuals present didn’t really fall into what would be considered scientific. In their eyes, this kind of stealth was very low-level.
A voice in the truck said, “I see it. Our core reactor is over there, in that shuttle-shaped metal object.”
“How foolish. They actually installed our core reactor in such a low-level machine.”
“The two men and that woman standing there should be the ones who took our core reactor away.”
“They can’t see us. Bring out our secret weapon and have it lock onto them.”
“Don’t underestimate the enemy. The mechanically modified warriors we sent before also had invisibility devices, yet they were still noticed by the other party. We must be careful this time. In addition, there is lightning falling nearby... This lightning is quite weird.”
“Don’t worry, our weapons are more powerful than a thunderstorm.”
“Wait, they are all Chinese. Can you give me some face and not kill them? Just leave them seriously injured. Since they were able to take our ‘core reactor’, they might also possess some of the super age technology. When the time comes, I’ll go over and talk to them. Maybe we can take them with us and have them become our companions.”
“Anyway, open fire first!”
There was a mix of languages being used inside the truck. However, the people inside seemed to be proficient in the languages of several countries, and they had no difficulty communicating with one another whatsoever.
After that was said, the container silently opened, and a huge cannon-shaped object was aimed at Song Shuhang and his party.
“...” Song Shuhang.
“...” Dharma King Creation.
“...” Fairy Dongfang Six.
Dharma King Creation asked, “Who are these guys?”
Song Shuhang replied, “Hm, if I’m not mistaken, they should be the people who made the ‘core reactor’. If possible, we should capture them alive. Despite being rather reckless, they do possess a lot of interesting technology. There should be many seniors in the Nine Provinces Number One Group who will find these researchers quite interesting.”
Fairy Dongfang Six said, “Such as Senior White.”
After being silent for a moment, Dharma King Creation said, “I don’t know why, but when you mentioned Senior White, I got a hunch. If you give these guys to Senior White, he might use them to make something terrifying, something even more terrifying than the disposable flying sword. So, how about we release them on Mars instead?”
Song Shuhang laughed, and said, “Senior White released a batch of people in his martian immortal cave. I feel that if you were to release them there, they would also break into Senior White’s immortal cave on Mars after a series of coincidences.”
“...” Dharma King Creation.
“Fire!” At this time, the muzzle in the container lit up.
A huge electromagnetic force condensed at the muzzle, electric arcs jumping here and there.
Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword asked, “What weapon is this?”
Song Shuhang shrugged his shoulders, and said, “It seems a gun-like weapon that works with electricity. It immediately makes me think of a super railgun. This is my take from the information I can access as an ordinary civilian.”
Or should he get close and appraise it?
Dharma King Creation estimated, “It seems quite powerful, with might approaching that of a Fifth-Stage-level attack.”
Fairy Dongfang Six confirmed, “Mm-hm, it should be about there.”
But for the three people present, an attack of this level couldn’t even hurt a single strand of their hair.
Dharma King Creation practiced the ?Warring Buddha’s True Body?, one of the best body-tempering techniques alongside the ?Scholarly Indestructible Body of the Buddha? and ?Holy Ape Dragon Power Technique?. Moreover, in terms of pure physical strength, he was even above Fairy Dongfang Six and Song Shuhang.
Fairy Dongfang Six was a big boss in a demonic sect.
Song Shuhang was a Five-Star Fifth Stage Spiritual Emperor with five cores.
Even if a Fifth Stage attack were to hit these three head-on, it would barely have any effect on them.
“Boom~” The railgun was fired.
However, it turned out to be a dud, and the attack failed to launch. Instead, the previously condensed electrical energy lashed back onto the armored truck, and the truck exploded. The life and death of several people who might have aroused Senior White’s interest was now unknown.
“...” Song Shuhang.
“...” Dharma King Creation.
“...” Fairy Dongfang Six.
Are these guys trying to be funny?
“Buzz~” At this time, on the body of Song Shuhang’s steel manifestation, a radar-like device was activated, scanning all around it.
From the body of the steel manifestation, a voice sounded. “A suitable weapon has been found. No. Tyrant Tyrant applies for equipment.”
Song Shuhang responded, “Huh?”
What the hell is No. Tyrannical Tyrant? Who gave you that name?
“No. Tyrannical Tyrant applies for equipment, please approve.” The voice of the steel manifestation sounded again.
Song Shuhang gritted his teeth, and said, “Approved.”
...After this tribulation ended, if this guy was still in one piece, he would clear its logs. The name No. Tyrannical Tyrant had to be changed.
At the same time, Song Shuhang rummaged through his own magical bracelet.
Did he have equipment that suited the steel manifestation?
He had the Black Iron Armor, the Celestials’ bows and arrows and javelins, Demon Monarch Anzhi’s standard flying sword, and a phone-like, brick-sized object that Senior White’s clone had given him in the past.
