[After this connection had been established, a thin layer of snowy white appeared on the surface of the Energy Crystal. However, this did not affect its use. This snowy layer would also protect the Energy Crystal after it had been completely drained, preventing it from shattering and dissipating. Instead, it would turn into a transparent crystal. At the same time, the snowy white on its surface would vanish.
Next, it only needed to be replenished once its energy had been exhausted. According to the deductions Yuan Ring had obtained from Tantai Jingyuan, even without outside interference, an Energy Crystal in this state would slowly recover on its own—though the speed was exceedingly slow.]
[Although Tantai Jingyuan had not been particularly satisfied with Yuan Ring, his Dao Companion had strongly recommended it, and it was also his Dao Companion's disciple. Thus, he had still regarded it as the heir to the sun and moon. For this reason, Tantai Jingyuan had also told Yuan Ring of the two methods he knew that could rapidly restore energy.
The first was to draw upon the Supreme Treasure of Dao Integration in an Integrating with the Dao Land for power. Although this would slightly reduce the Supreme Treasure of Dao Integration's condition and affect its might, the restoration speed it brought to the Energy Crystal through such contact was quite remarkable.
