What Xiao Hu sent was actually a fist-sized Kongming stone!
What surprised Qu Jianlei even more was that one side of the Kongming Stone actually revealed a cross-section that was obviously new!
"Is this the thing that just hit the starship?"
"It's cracked," the big-headed butterfly turned its body and answered with regret.
"It was originally the size of a tire, and I just grabbed a small piece of it... Is this what you wanted?"
"Oh my god, the Kongming Stone?" Xizhao's spiritual sense came, and then the ruler flew into the cabin.
It circled around the Kongming Stone, obviously a little excited, "I told you, it's an energy tide, not a vortex!"
Its reaction had alarmed everyone, and several spiritual senses quickly followed.
People like Tianyin and Claire ran over directly, wanting to know what happened.
Qu Jianlei didn't care about the sunset's calculations - tides and whirlpools were just names.
"You mean, this situation is suitable for producing the Void Stone?"
"That's probably it!" Xi Zhao was in a good mood, "The Sky Stone itself is... well, let me organize my words first."
Its general meaning is that Kongming Stone has the attributes of both space and time, and is a substance that cannot appear naturally in nature.
So they only appear in boundary barriers or membranes.
In order to obtain these substances, one must have an unstable space node so that a little bit can be thrown out from time to time.
However, then again, such a spatial node is only one of the conditions. Having a node does not necessarily mean there will be a Kongming Stone.
Even Xizhao himself could not accurately describe the conditions for the birth of the Kongming Stone.
Just like its understanding of the hundred arts of cultivating immortals, it only knows that there is this saying, as for the details... why should it find out?
Generally speaking, there must be a Kongming Stone in the barrier of the realm!
Whether it was the gap in the confrontation between the Federation and the Empire, or the space loophole that had appeared on the Veil Star, this thing had never appeared.
But at the same time, Xizhao insisted, "...I have some feeling towards the Kongming Stone."
"I chose this weak energy ball because I had this premonition!"
"Appearance, I want to know the appearance," Qu Jianlei reminded it impatiently, "Has a spatial gap appeared here?"
"Also, how much of this Void Stone would normally be leaked out?"
Xizhao answered very straightforwardly, "These situations...can't we verify them now?"
Dorgan came over, picked up the Kongming Stone, looked at it, and nodded thoughtfully.
Then she said, "It has been many years since Senior Yi He started trying to seal the town..."
The meaning was very clear, and Qu Jianlei nodded when he heard it.
"Then we must take it seriously now and try to sense it... Oh my god, how can we sense it in this environment?"
However, compared to blocking possible space gaps, everyone would rather look for the Void Stone!
The former is merely a responsibility and can even be considered a moral obligation, but the latter can actually shorten the duration of practice.
So everyone started discussing how to detect the existence of the Kongming Stone in such a harsh environment.
In fact, the methods...are still the same, it’s just a matter of how to arrange them reasonably.
First, the active detection function of the regimental-level ships was pressed to the maximum - this had never been done before.
The main reason is that this type of equipment is easily damaged when it is turned on at peak value for a long time, so everyone thinks that it is enough.
Secondly, everyone needs to use spiritual perception.
The fourth master took the initiative to test it first and found that the chaotic energy here would not harm the spiritual consciousness.
However, when people are in the cabin, the effect of spiritual perception is much worse, so it is better to perceive outside the starship.
However, given the current external environment, even the defense of a regiment-level ship is having a hard time.
If people go out, they can't hold on for long even if they grit their teeth.
Therefore, it is necessary to activate the spirit gathering array inside, at least to ensure the speed of everyone's recovery of spiritual energy.
Then they were divided into shifts. Nutrients and Qu Jianlei were in one class, Duogan and the Fourth Dangjia were in one class, and Old Lady Jia and Mu Guang were in one class.
Senior Xizhao...formed his own class!
In addition, everyone also gave a suggestion, asking the boss to build a defense formation on the lifting platform of the regimental-level ship!
The defensive array he built was different in nature from the protective shield. It was derived from the defensive array of immortal cultivators, the only difference was that it was driven by energy blocks.
This kind of defense formation is better at defending against external attacks rather than internal attacks, and without the barrier of armor, it is easier to perceive with spiritual sense.
It is said that the wisdom of the masses is infinite, and various measures have been designed by everyone.
Building a defense array on a lifting platform also requires sophisticated reinforcement techniques.
But everyone thinks that this is not a big deal for the boss - after all, he is a great guy who can tinker with the equipment.
However, even with the protection of a defensive formation, using spiritual power intensively for a long time would be extremely exhausting.
Qu Jianlei and the nutrient agent were the first team. They persisted for six hours and then decisively withdrew.
At this moment, the two of them can still hold on, but Qu Jianlei thinks that this level of fatigue is just right, and too much is as bad as too little.
The other three shifts will take turns, and they will have at least eighteen hours to rest.
In the blink of an eye, half a day had passed and no one had captured the Kongming Stone.
However, this situation was also expected. If there were really so many Kongming Stones, they would have flooded the empire long ago.
Anyway, all the participants are people with strong wills, and no one's mood is affected by the boring and repetitive work.
When Dogan was in the same class with the Fourth Master, they suddenly discovered obvious abnormal energy.
Dogan did not inform the artificial intelligence to change the route, but took decisive action when he was two hundred kilometers away from that thing.
What the big hand grabbed back was not the Kongming Stone, but a piece of arc-shaped bone the size of a washbasin, which felt like the skull of something!
Dogan already knew that what he had locked onto was not the Void Stone, but when he saw this thing, he couldn't help but curl his lips.
"This is... When did I become a rag picker?"
However, despite saying this, she still put the thing away without hesitation.
Needless to say, after going through such a long time, this bone still has a strong Nascent Soul aura, which is enough to show its strength.
Energetic materials are very valuable, this is what the boss said himself!
But when she showed her harvest to the boss, she didn't know why, she always felt that his expression was a little weird...
The Dogan class opened, and then the Sunset class opened.
It collected an SUV-sized piece of ore that looked like rosemary copper.
This is an isotope of copper that is widely used in the manufacture of various high-end synthetic materials, mainly acting as a catalyst.
This substance cannot be synthesized artificially and is quite rare in nature. In the imperial market, its price is more expensive than gold.
But Xizhao said, "This is not rosemary copper at all... It is star copper with star patterns, which is worth a lot of money in the world of immortal cultivation!"
However, when Xizhao obtained the Tianxing copper, he did not show any courtesy to Xiaohu and directly notified the regiment-level ship to change direction.
In fact, by now, the regimental-level ships have been constantly changing directions.
There is no way. The energy turbulence brings too much pressure to the starship. If it tries to move forward straight under the pressure, it will easily be damaged.
For Xiaohu, it is now like being on a battlefield, avoiding any potential risks as much as possible.
Fortunately, it will not get lost. If other starships want to do this, they have to consider whether they can find the way back.
The starship moved erratically frequently, and Sunset ordered it to change its route without any hesitation.
Dorgan noticed this and secretly kept it in mind - I don't have to bear it anymore in the future.
In this chaotic environment, she just used her big hand and consumed some spiritual energy, but did not borrow the power of artificial intelligence.
Not long after, Xi Zhao got another harvest - a tattered flag.
Seeing this, Qu Jianlei couldn't help but secretly shake his head. Why are they all starting to lose their reserve?
He was just complaining in his heart, but he never thought that under such circumstances, Xi Zhao could still sense the slightest movement in the cabin.
It said unhappily, "Why, can't you feel the aura of this flag?"
"I sensed it," Qu Jianlei replied in a deep voice, "but this magic weapon is already broken."
"This is a very rare light-based magical tool," Xizhao said seriously, "The materials alone are priceless!"
"Okay, you are right," Qu Jianlei sighed in his heart: Is it because I... set a bad example?
During the six-hour shift at sunset, these were the only two items collected.
But in fact, such an achievement can be said to be incredible.
For other expedition teams in such an environment, it would be lucky to encounter one in ten days.
The next class was Qu Jianlei and the nutrient supplements again.
Nutrients was a little competitive, "Should we collect some other items as well?"
"No need," Qu Jianlei shook his head. "If you come across it, you can just put it away. There's no need to go out of your way to look for it."
"We must remember the main purpose, everything else is just a side issue."
As the two were talking, they suddenly heard a "gurgling" sound.
They looked down and saw that a tentacle suddenly emerged from the slime-shaped fisherman's ankle.
The tentacles were pointing in a certain direction, looking quite excited.
"This is..." Qu Jianlei frowned and couldn't help muttering in his heart: Some guys' spirit awakening skills are really bad!
"Let's go take a look first," the nutrient said in a deep voice, "maybe there's some high-quality fire."
Qu Jianlei did not object. It must be a big deal if it could make a guy who was always trying to get something out of his pocket so excited.
Following the direction pointed out by the fire spirit, the starship flew hundreds of kilometers in an instant, but did not discover anything.
"This is..." Qu Jianlei frowned slightly. He didn't believe that a newborn fire spirit could sense things from a long distance.
The nutrient, however, looked down at his ankle and said, "It's turned!"
The digger's tentacles had changed direction and became a little thicker.
It was obvious that the opponent was getting closer, but they didn't even notice?
So she increased the power of her spiritual sense, and Qu Jianlei notified Xiaohu to change direction.
