Walking through the dense alleyways, Su Li watched the carbon allotrope sphere in his hand morph from round to square, then to flat, a thoughtful expression flashing in his eyes.

Back in the Real Universe, Su Li had never found an opportunity to test his new talent, "Carbon Element Manipulation." Now, after his recent experiment, he finally had some understanding of this ability!

Just as Su Li had thought, Carbon Element Manipulation could directly control the carbon elements within carbon-based life forms, thereby achieving the goal of eliminating them.

This ability was powerful, even monstrous!

However, it also consumed an enormous amount of energy. The Black man who had escaped was just an ordinary person. It was manageable for Su Li to control a small portion of the carbon elements in his body, but the final act of making him disappear had even made him feel a slight strain.

By extension, if he wanted to control all the carbon elements in an E-Class Superhuman, Su Li would probably exhaust himself to death!

Of course, to kill someone, he didn't necessarily need to control all their carbon elements. In fact, Su Li only needed to cause their heart or brain to collapse directly!

That was exactly what happened to Jimmy. The reason he spat out that mixture of blood and flesh was that Su Li had silently destroyed some of his internal organs.

Because his internal organs lacked the sensory nerves connected to his brain, Jimmy didn't even know that his internal organs were severely damaged!

This was a method of killing from the shadows, truly terrifying!

Besides this, Su Li also gained some inspiration from the mass of carbon allotrope in his hand.

In Earth's natural world, carbon allotropes generally existed in two forms: graphite and diamond.

Graphite was unremarkable; it was useless to Su Li.

But diamond, this thing was known for its incredible hardness. Although a bit brittle, it might have good results if used to make weapons.

Furthermore, Su Li remembered reading in a popular science article that diamonds were formed under high temperature and high pressure conditions underground.

This meant that diamonds were also carbon allotropes!

Of course, in the vast universe, there couldn't be only these two forms of carbon allotropes. It was just that Su Li only knew of these two for now!

All that has been said so far was actually to express one idea: Su Li felt that with his ability, he could completely transform one carbon allotrope into another, and he could also control its shape, for example, turning a sphere into a sword!

Right now, Su Li was attempting just that.

If he succeeded in creating diamond, then he probably wouldn't have to worry about weapons for a while!

Even if a diamond longsword wasn't as durable as his alloy one-handed sword, he could repair it instantly if it broke, making it essentially infinite!

If he successfully synthesized natural diamonds that were indistinguishable from the real thing, then his path to wealth would be right before his eyes... Calculated at 10,000 RMB per Resource Point, his Resource Points would reach an inexhaustible level in a short period!

As for now, the first thing he needed to do was to figure out the specific structure that made up diamond... This wasn't difficult. Tianling Star was quite similar to Earth, and he believed he could find this information online!

Even if not, he could always return to the Real Universe to check, as there was no difficulty involved.

After a long time—

Su Li sat on a lounge chair by the roadside, staring at a semi-translucent longsword in his hand, and sighed.

The reality was that he had overthought things. It was possible that his current low level meant his control was severely lacking. Controlling the shape of the carbon allotrope was easy for him.

But to have all the carbon atoms arrange themselves according to his ideas... Su Li felt that this was almost like a dream for him at the moment!

However, Su Li wasn't without gains.

Although he hadn't successfully synthesized diamond, Su Li had managed to create something that was almost like it.

This was probably a new carbon allotrope. Su Li hadn't thought of a name carefully, so he'd tentatively call it Carbon Gold. The appearance of Carbon Gold was semi-transparent, looking similar to some crystal ornaments from afar, but in terms of appearance, Carbon Gold was quite excellent.

Furthermore, Carbon Gold was stable and not easily flammable, which was similar to diamond.

Of course, Carbon Gold also had its own advantages. It had excellent toughness and moderate hardness. A longsword made from it could withstand Su Li's full force without breaking.

It was precisely because of this that Su Li decided to temporarily use this piece of Carbon Gold as his weapon.

Moreover, because Carbon Gold was a pure carbon allotrope, Su Li could completely transform it into another form and carry it with him during normal times, for example, an inconspicuous bracelet...

Of course, without this bracelet, Su Li could still synthesize Carbon Gold with other carbon atoms at any time. However, doing so would be quite troublesome. In a real fight, it would definitely be too late to do it this way, so it was better to wear it!

After creating Carbon Gold, Su Li sat there for a while longer before getting up and leaving.

He wandered around the city named Yosdon for half a day, but ultimately, Su Li found nothing!

This left Su Li feeling a bit helpless. Based on his experience on Gorol Star and Primal Star, there were likely planetary missions on Tianling Star as well. However, he had searched for half a day without finding any clues!

But thinking about it, it was quite normal. After all, on Gorol Star, he only found the mission on the third day. Primal Star was even more so; he died there once, and it was only on his second entry that Su Li found the mission!

Just as Su Li was about to give up for the time being, a crisp voice suddenly sounded in his ear.

"Sir, the Century Museum will be opening in a week. Please look forward to it!"

Su Li turned and looked. It was a freckled girl, no, a girl handing out flyers with small freckles all over her face!

Taking the flyer the girl handed him, Su Li said thank you and casually glanced at the content on the flyer—plain and unremarkable, a museum exhibition.

In just a moment, Su Li was about to find a trash can to throw the flyer away. He wasn't even interested in Earth's museums, let alone those on Tianling Star.

Even though the environment of Tianling Star was very similar to Earth, it was still like this!

However, in the very next moment, Su Li abruptly stopped the movement in his hands.
