Treasure/Trash

After taking the rather unremarkable-looking metal fragment into her hand and lightly weighing it,

Su Qingyue immediately roughly judged that this palm-sized object weighed at least as much as a spherical metal ball several hundred meters in diameter.

If this courtyard had not been covered by a formation barrier, and if she were not far from ordinary, then with its excessively concentrated mass and density, this thing could easily crush a towering mountain.

However,

compared to this object's other characteristics, its weight was the most insignificant thing about it.

After merely giving it a few cursory glances,

Su Qingyue quickly discovered that, within the perception of her true essence, this thing revealed no gaps whatsoever.

It was as though it were wholly a complete entity, rather than a conventional object jointly constructed from countless microscopic particles.

In this regard, although the cultivation path of this world was not a technological one, as cultivators steadily grew stronger, their powers of observation over all things naturally increased accordingly.

Therefore,

even without any scientific education,

the high-level cultivators of this world still possessed a corresponding understanding of information at the microscopic level.

In this world,

such things were part of evolution.

Thus, when Su Qingyue realized that the metal fragment before her was far from simple, her gaze abruptly became much more serious.

"...What peculiar metal—"

After recalling things for a while, she said somewhat nostalgically,

"Back then, I did see something similar, but this metal fragment is far more perfect than that thing."

"After all, with my current strength, even if I did not take it too seriously, I could still completely see through that thing's flaws..."

To her,

observing an object's microscopic structure could, in essence, be understood as gaining the chance to observe its weaknesses.

As long as one could
