Chapter 461: Chapter 461 Unifying the Lizard Archipgo
The soldier hurriedly replied:
“We collided with a giant rock, and the observer guessed that there might be a rift in a ne nearby, which would mean many fragments of the shattered ne could be found in the surrounding Void.”
“A rift in a ne?”
Lin Xiao strode onto the bridge, where the central viewing screen showed nothing but darkness. ncing out of the observation windows at the front of the bridge, he saw nothing outside except for the churning Void Energy.
Just as he was about to look away, a massive, irregrly shaped mountain surged forth from the tumultuous Void Storm ahead, crashing towards them.
The pilot quickly adjusted the warship’s angle, and the Flying Snake No., just barely grazed past the irregr mountain that was thousands of meters high.
“It really is a rift in a ne!”
Lin Xiao had seen traces of buildings on the edges of the rock they just passed, indicating that there was a civilization within the fragmented ne, and judging from this, probably not a primitive one.
His interest piqued instantly, he ordered loudly:
“Slow down, approach cautiously, and be ready to flee at a moment’s notice. Retreat immediately if anything goes awry!”<div>
A rift in a ne was rare. It could be the result of some catastrophic disaster, or perhaps a battle between super-strong beings above the level of a True God, causing the ne to fracture identally.
Of course, there was another possibility—that a super Void Behemoth had passed through the ne, and if the ne were small, it could also idently get shattered.
A fractured ne generally loses its value. Once a ne has shattered and its fragments dispersed into the Void, it won’t be long before the Earth is eroded by Void Energy and dissolves into nothingness.
However, generally after a ne has disintegrated, there will be remnants of very sturdy and precious minerals and Magic materials. These are hard to mine within a ne but may be avable after a ne’s copse, which is what Lin Xiao hoped to find by trying his luck.
The Flying Snake No. flew slowly forward, and it wasn’t long before they passed another piece ofnd riddled with corrosion holes.
As they passed the boulder, the observer saw arge blue crystal on the other surface and immediately shouted:
“Look over there, a massive chunk of sapphire in its raw form!”
Lin Xiao looked in that direction and saw a blue crystal almost the size of a small room, its surface emitting a faint blue glow. More blue crystals of various sizes were nearby. His face lit up with joy as he shouted:
“Head over there, mine it out.”
“We’re going to make a fortune this time.”
Everyone in the bridge was thrilled to see the blue crystal.
This was not your ordinary sapphire; it was the kind used as Magic materials, and the mostmon andrgest use for it was to be ground into powder. After processing, it could bebined with other materials to make magic ink. Whether for inscribing Arrays or making Magic Items or Magic Scrolls, it’s needed.
Its unit price isn’t high, but the size of this find cannot be ignored. You should know that one unit of this material is only about the size of an egg, and the standard market price is a thousand units per Godforce Crystal.
There are probably hundreds of thousands of units here, which could add up to a few hundred Godforce Crystals. That’s not a small sum of money.
“Everyone who sees it gets a share; dig it out, and everyone gets a big red envelope,”
Lin Xiao dered with a sweep of his arm.
The crowd cheered, their movements bing much more agile.
Maintaining its trajectory and speed to match the ne fragment several kilometers high, several members of the Navy Marine Corps disembarked in machines resembling butrger than the Pioneer Golem and flew towards the fragment. Two mechanical arms secured themselves to the face of the cliff, while the other two transformed into chisels and began forcefully chiseling along the edges of the sapphire.
The machines, with their incredible Strength, shattered the hard rockyer, and soon enough, the sapphire was loosened and detached. The two machines then extended several arms to grab and push the sapphire towards the Flying Snake No.<div>
It’s worth mentioning that these Magic Sapphires were associated minerals found with iron ore, the area was surrounded by iron ore.
In normal circumstances, these iron ores wouldn’t be wasted, but they didn’t have enough space to amodate them now and had to let them go.
When Lin Xiao arrived at the rear cabin, he saw a piece of sapphire the size of a small room lying quietly on the hard metal floor, a circle of faint blue light illumining the area around the gemstone.
Shen Yuexin walked around the gemstone and picked up a small, irregr piece of broken sapphire from the ground, asking:<div>
“This Magic gemstone has a wide range of uses and is in high demand on the market. Are you going to sell it, or will you use it yourself?”
“Of course, I’ll use it myself!”
He had a Law system race within his Divine Realm, which consumed a hefty amount of such materials. He had previously had to buy them himself, which was quite an expense.
Turning to Flying Snake with a gesture, he said:
“Lend me your sword!”
Flying Snake hurriedly unfastened his sword and handed it over. Lin Xiao grasped the sword, aimed at therge blue sapphire, and brought down his sword with a chop.
A brilliant light shot forth from the sword, quickly forming a five-meter-long greatsword that shed downward, cleanly dividing the sapphire in two. Following that, his hand lifted and fell several more times, cutting the sapphire into a dozen smaller pieces before he stopped.
Returning the sword to his subordinate, he pointed to the pile of blue sapphires and said to his girlfriend:
“Here, half for you, half for me.”
His girlfriend wasn’t shy, and with a wave of her hand, she collected half of the sapphires for herself.
Although she was not short on money, when it came to exploring Different Domains, what needed to be taken had to be taken.
Lin Xiao stored the remaining sapphires in a spatial magic item for the time being, nning to transfer them to his True Bodyter using the Creation Rubik’s Cube.
They continued to excavate the smaller sapphires on this Piecemeal ne one by one, then sted it apart with their ship’s cannons, finding arge number of gemstones and other rare materials, all of which they gathered up.<div>
By the time they left, that Piecemeal ne had been disassembled into countless fragments and swallowed up by the Void Storm.
Continuing forward, they found several more Piecemeal nes of varying sizes, and from these, they mined some rare minerals, though none as abundant as the initial repository of magic gemstones.
They must have flown tens of thousands of kilometers forward without seeing any Piecemeal nes for a long time. He estimated that the Flying Snake No. had passed through the Void filled with ne fragments and had not seen a shattered ne Core, nor any lifeforms left behind from a broken ne, much less the culprit behind the ne’s destruction.
Lin Xiao guessed that by the time they arrived, it had been too long since the ne had shattered; the broken ne Core was likely taken long ago.
If there was one…
There was some regret but also some relief.
The regret was not having seen the central region inside a broken ne, and naturally not having spotted a ne Core.
The relief came from arrivingte and not encountering the destroyer of the shattered ne, for if they had, their chances of escape would have been slim.
The so-called ne Core, also known as Star Core, is the initial core of a ne, containing unimaginably terrifying energy. Crafting this object into a Card would yield an eight-star Ancient Card that even True Gods would dream of possessing.
If integrated into a God realm, this object could induce a transformation that countless Sons of God realm could only dream of – it could push a God realm beyond its limits, allowing it to birth a True God Level Powerhouse.
Let me put it this way: normally, the conventional means to elevate a God Domain’s Strength and energy limit is Rank 10, which corresponds to the Demigod Stage.
This is the conventional limit. Even if the Son of God realm achieves Divine Enthronement and ascends to Powerful Divine Power, as long as no special treasures are used to extend the God realm’s limit, the limit for the Strength of the races within the God realm will be confined to below Rank 10. It is impossible to exceed this limit, even if the Son of the God realm brings Divinity to the Core Races, as this is the limit set by the world.
The ne Core, however, has the power to break through this cap, which illustrates how terrifyingly valuable it is.<div>
However, ne Cores are exceedingly rare. It’s not that every ne possesses a ne Core; the conditions for its formation and acquisition are incredibly stringent.
First and foremost, it must be a ne that has given birth to a ne Will and has intelligent lifeforms, regardless of the size of the ne. Only then does the ne Core have the potential to form.
Yes, only potential, not a certainty that a ne Will will be born.
A ne that does not meet these criteria, no matter how vast it is, will not form a ne Core.
Note that this ‘forming’ is a conceptual type of formation. In reality, every ne has a ne Core, but it’s a matter of being useful or not.
It can be likened to a chicken egg: some can hatch chicks, while others will never be able to hatch. It’s simr to that.
Beyond that, how to obtain a ne Core is another major question.
Keep in mind that the ne Core is the foundational basis of a ne’s existence, akin to a human’s brain and heart. If someone were to take your brain and heart while you’re still alive, could you survive?
Certainly not.
Therefore, the emergence of each ne Core signifies the destruction of a ne with a multitude of intelligent lifeforms.
As people resist, so does the ne Will.
In despair, people might fight to the death or evenmit suicide. The ne Will might do the same when it realizes it has no chance of resistance. There is a high likelihood that it will burn everything in ast suicidal strike against the attacker.
Whether or not the attacker can be killed, the ne Will itself will be extinguished.<div>
And once a ne Will falls prematurely, its ne Core bes useless.
Regardless of who destroys a ne filled with life, they will face the rejection and hostility of the entire Crystal Wall Universe.
Therefore, these objects are extremely difficult to obtain, and not every noble scion possesses them.
Whenever one appears, it sparks a frenzy among the wealthy Sons of God realm who brandish treasures in exchange.
Indeed, these objects are only bartered for, with items of equivalent level or value, and are generally not sold outright.
Though Lin Xiao didn’t find this object, he felt no regret; had he found it, he would have been conflicted about whether to return immediately.
Of course, if he had managed to acquire aplete ne Core, immediate return wouldn’t have been a loss.
They didn’t n to go back and search; if they’d overshot, they’d overshot. They pressed on, plunging directly into the Void Storm, vanishing from sight.
In the God realm, as time passed, those light cocoons formed by the Wise Goblins gradually dimmed, indicating that the transformation wasplete.
Apanied by a faint click, thergest cocoon inside the City of Truth cracked open, and a stream of glittering starlight burst forth. Lin Xiao watched with anticipation as rda slowly bowed his head.
