The Power of Technology

Ling Zichen chuckled and continued:

"Back then, someone discovered a way to obtain Metal Source.

Through this method, the core energy source within Rare Metal could be extracted, then purified and reduced in size.

These sources were all incredibly, incredibly tiny.

From a one-cubic-meter block of Sinking Silver, the total weight of the source extracted would not exceed one gram. Surprised?"

"If there are enough energy sources and they are combined together, tremendous changes can occur.

They can unleash immense power.

The source mass contained within a single Godslayer-class Fixed Soul Cannon exceeds fifty kilograms.

The power it generates is terrifying. That is why it became a devastating superweapon."

As she spoke of these matters, Ling Zichen talked at length with utter confidence.

Long Yuan listened attentively. Most of it fell within his blind spots of knowledge, and this was his first time learning some details about Godslayer-class Fixed Soul Cannons.

He wore an expression of having learned something.

"The amount of Rare Metal required for one Godslayer-class Fixed Soul Cannon is enormous, practically an astronomical figure.

That is why, throughout the Douluo Federation's history, we only managed to produce three of them.

Even so, it severely drained our resources.

By the time the Federation realized that research into Godslayer-class Fixed Soul Cannons consumed vast resources, the damage had already been done.

That was why the Federation put a stop to all research related to Rare Metal sources.

But I see things differently.

There is nothing inherently wrong with source research. Continuing it would greatly advance the development of Soul Guidance Technology.

As long as the amount used is properly controlled, it will be fine.

For example, the project I am currently researching involves using Rare Metal sources to form a Positive Cycle Array, allowing the sources to be recycled
