What is a light-year?
(0100)
The emergence of the furnace tripod gave practitioners an opportunity to correct themselves and improve themselves. Everyone can choose a suitable spiritual beast as a furnace tripod according to their own needs, which is undoubtedly a great blessing for some practitioners.
However, the process of mastering the furnace is not smooth sailing. It's not that you can master whatever demon beast you want. There are many subtleties involved. Simply put, it's two words: fate. The master and the furnace must have a destined connection in order to successfully capture it. Otherwise, all the cultivators in the entire starry sky would be cultivating demonic hearts.
In fact, from the current starry sky world, the prospects of Dao Xin Zhong Mo are not optimistic. It seems that no one has heard of the 100th chapter of Guang Nian being a high-ranking cultivator who is proficient in Dao Xin Zhong Mo. High-level cultivators mostly regard Dao Xin Zhong Mo as an auxiliary means, while low-level cultivators rarely choose to cultivate Dao Xin Zhong Mo.
Compared to practicing martial arts like Easy Muscle Technique, the prospects of cultivating Dao Xin Zhong Mo are indeed quite bleak. Unless there's an extremely special need or a strong hobby, ordinary cultivators wouldn't choose to cultivate Dao Xin Zhong Mo. This is also why the number of insect-catching teams that can be assembled within the Meng Luo military base isn't actually that many.
Xia Xingxiao asked: "Does this sandworm larva have any special abilities?"
Li Yuzi said briefly: "Two. First, energy ball. Second, find ore."
He went on to explain in detail the special abilities of the Sand Worms, first and foremost being their ability to emit energy balls. This is the Sand Worm's most powerful attack skill. However, the Sand Worm larvae are temporarily unable to emit energy balls and must grow to level 10 or above before they can do so. The sand worms they saw in the starry sky earlier were all adult sand worms above level 10.
If it's those powerful sand worms, mouth open, a burst of energy balls can be fired out, even a cruiser can't withstand it. In the previous Star Wars, there were even examples of super battleships (destroyer stars) being directly destroyed by sand worms spitting out energy balls. Of course, sand worms that are powerful to that extent are absolutely rare.
In fact, if the previous battles had those super-large sand worms mobilized, I'm afraid Aiyue Star would have been destroyed long ago. In front of those level 22 or higher giant sand worms, human super battleships are not even worth mentioning. At that level, only cultivators with similar levels can eliminate them.
A 22-level sandworm, just the length of its body, exceeds 200,000 kilometers. The average distance from the moon to the earth is only 380,000 kilometers. It can be imagined that such a big guy is so abnormal. However, in the starry world where light-years are often used as units of calculation, it's not considered anything.
What is a light-year? That's a super-terrifying unit of distance. It's the distance that light travels in a year. The speed of light is about 300,000 kilometers per second. How many seconds are there in a year? Over 30 million seconds! In other words, the distance of a light-year can hold over 50 million level-22 giant sandworms. Obviously, it's impossible to have that many super-giant sandworms. Even if you remove the "ten thousand" character, there still aren't that many.
Actually, those super-large sand worms are usually hidden in the deepest part of the Alashan Gobi Desert, the Great Emperor of the Yddi tribe. As long as no one disturbs them, they will not move easily. Otherwise, the Starlight Federation on the outskirts of the Alashan Gobi Desert would not have a good day. Once a super-large sand worm appears, the entire Starlight Federation will be in chaos.
"Are those super-large sand worms really that fierce?" Xiaoxiao asked curiously.
Li Yuzhi nodded and said: "Otherwise, you think the vast Alxa League Gobi Desert is full of mineral deposits, how can there not be a single mine pit?"
Xia Xing nodded thoughtfully. Li Yuzhi said so, and he really did understand a bit. Indeed, the mineral deposits of Alashan Plateau are unimaginable to outsiders. Especially vanadium-lead ore, vanadium-copper ore, wolframite, and scheelite, which have extremely rich reserves. And these mineral deposits are in great demand for various energy weapons.
Now, the various forces in the Starry Sky World have entered a state of intense competition for mineral resources. Whether it's humans or non-humans, high-intelligence beings or low-intelligence beings, all are searching everywhere for useful minerals. If not, Xia Qifeng's Tea Petal Ore Trading Company wouldn't be making so much money.
It can be said that the mineral resources in the Starry Sky world are equivalent to oil in ancient Earth times, and their importance is self-evident. Regional conflicts triggered by competition for mineral resources, even starry sky wars, are not uncommon. The root cause of multiple starry sky wars has always been the struggle for mineral resources. And the reserves of mineral resources also have a very profound impact on war.
No matter whether it's a battleship, fighter plane or mecha, they all require a large amount of energy crystals. These energy crystals are divided into three types: T, , and X. Among them, the T series is a type of weapon-grade energy crystal with strong destructive power. The series is military-use energy crystal, which is essential fuel for space battleships to make spatial jumps. As for the X series, it's the most common civilian-use energy crystal.
Among the three types of energy crystals, the rarest and most valuable is naturally the T-series energy crystal. The various large cannons, missiles, torpedoes, and bombs on warships all require a large amount of T-series energy crystals. Similarly, the weapons of fighter jets and mechs also require a large amount of T-series energy crystals. If there are no more energy crystals, it's like guns without bullets, becoming useless sticks. No, not even as useful as firewood, only able to wait for death.
The Alashan Kobu Desert contains minerals such as cobalt, vanadium-uranium, vanadium-calcium-uranium, and copper-uranium mica, which can be refined into high-purity T-series energy crystals. Therefore, the mineral resources here are absolutely coveted by everyone. If someone could mine these resources, it would be impossible not to become fabulously wealthy overnight. The minerals they excavate will definitely be snatched up in no time. Unfortunately, due to the terrifying sand worms, humans can only look on with envy and dare not take a step forward.
In the past few eras, there have been human armies that tried to control Alashan Kobu Desert, controlling its mineral resources. However, the final result was a crushing defeat without exception. The Sha Clan attaches great importance to various minerals within their territory and does not allow any mining. Their xenophobic nature is also very frustrating. When words don't match, it leads to war. Therefore, even the Sha bandits themselves do not dare to privately mine Alashan Kobu Desert's mineral resources.
Li Yuzi continued: "Adult sandworms are indeed powerful, but they need to absorb a large amount of stellar energy in the middle, and without thousands or even hundreds of years, it is absolutely impossible for them to grow up... The big sandworms we see now have all gone through long years before growing up. Their lifespan is much longer than that of humans."
What it means is that you're reminding Xia Xingxiao that expecting the sandworm larvae to grow up and spit out energy balls capable of destroying the Extinguishing Starship is fundamentally impossible. You don't have that long a lifespan. Perhaps, by the time you're old and dying, the sandworms still won't have grown to level 10 or above.
As for above level 20, it's simply a pipe dream. For the sandworm to grow to above level 20, it would take at least thousands of years. And that's assuming everything goes smoothly and there are no unexpected events. If something were to happen halfway through, it would all be for nothing.
However, Xia Xingxiao didn't mind this point at all. His brain was simpler. He thought that he himself was already strong enough, and whether or not to have the sandworm as a helper didn't matter. Simply put, it was two sentences: Having one is fine, but not having one isn't a big deal either. However, since it's possible to use it, don't waste the opportunity, just take it in first.
To be honest, the Taoist Heart Sutra is probably ranked in the last five of the thirty-three internal skills he learned, and it's not usually used. Since it's not usually used, there's no need to be so particular about it. The sandworm is just a sandworm, nothing big deal, and it's not expected to eat. Just take a look at this so-called furnace tripod, what's the wonderful place? Black and white are both eaten.
Xia Xingxiao suddenly remembered something and asked: "Right, you said that sandworms can dig mines..."
Li Yuzhi said, "It's not mining, it's finding mines. Sandworms have an innate sense of various mineral deposits. They can easily find the mineral deposits you need. Of course, the premise is that the mineral deposits must be within its perceptible range."
Xia Xingxiao curiously asked: "How large is this sensing range?"
Li Yuzi shook his head and said, "I'm not very clear about it either, I haven't studied it carefully. I vaguely remember that the mining radius of sandworms is proportional to their body length. It should be that as the sandworm's abilities increase, its range expands continuously. The larvae of sandworms may not have much effect on mining, but adult sandworms are very powerful at mining."
"In fact, the mineral resources of each planet in Alashan Gobi are all found by the sandworms themselves. In any other place in the universe, there is no more detailed information about the distribution and reserves of minerals than in Alashan Gobi. Unfortunately, the sandworms there have discovered the mineral resources but do not allow anyone to mine them. This is simply a hard and fast rule that will suffocate you."
Xia Xing thought, the larvae of the sandworms were only twenty meters long. That is to say, their mining range was also only twenty meters. To be honest, a sensing range with a radius of twenty meters really didn't have much use. Think about it, a radius of twenty meters was such a short distance. What kind of minerals could be hidden in such a close distance? However, thinking about it later, this distance could evolve, and perhaps the distance would increase greatly in the future.
A tenth-level sandworm, now grown up, its body length has also increased to twenty kilometers. This means that its mining radius has also reached twenty kilometers. A radius of twenty kilometers should be able to explore some hidden minerals.
To say again, this sandworm is good at digging holes. Although it only has a detection radius of 20 meters, it digs everywhere and eventually finds the mineral deposits it needs by chance. Of course, you need a bit of luck.
