Caution
Original "Blue Silver Grass", "Female Ivy Blue Silver Grass", "Iron Birch Blue Silver Grass", "Agarwood Blue Silver Grass", "Watery Blue Silver Grass", "Bright Blue Silver Grass"...
As Ling Yi moved, various strange plants, each with a different aura and appearance, appeared on the grassland.
Looking around at these "Blue Silver Grass," some primitive and some mutated, Ling Yi felt a surge of pride.
But then, a hint of helplessness flashed in his eyes.
Ling Yi discovered that as his research progressed, whether in-depth or expanded, the results he obtained increased, and he seemed to be running out of material.
After all, although the "Ruyi Hundred Treasure Purse" is magical and can store living things, its internal space is only ten cubic meters in size.
This volume is actually not small for Storage Soul Tool.
Just like the Storage Soul Tool that Ling Yi obtained as a trophy on the battlefield between the two empires, it only had one cubic meter of space. The Fallen Soul King later only had a three-cubic-meter Storage Soul Tool.
If Ling Yi simply wanted to increase his portable storage space, he could have purchased a new Storage Soul Tool in the former "Dragon Rising City," a famous commercial hub city in the Douluo Continent.
However, what Ling Yi needs is clearly not just simple storage space, but a portable, handheld plantation.
Even the "Ruyi Hundred Treasure Purse" cannot actually do this; it merely serves as a transit station where items can be stored for a long time.
Regarding the principle behind the "Ruyi Hundred Treasure Purse's " ability to store living beings, Ling Yi has gained some initial insights into its unique Soul Guidance Array, which differs from spatial storage, after more than a year of research.
When he gave "Watery Blue Silver Grass" and "Bright Blue Silver Grass" to Ai'er Timosi and Lian Lai'en before, the two brocade boxes were each engraved with a half-finished Soul Guidance Array diagram deduced by Ling Yi.
This Soul Guidance Array, which Ling Yi named the "Spirit-Locking Inscription," can seal the vitality of the plant inside, preventing it from dissipating.
The reason it's called a semi-finished product is that this "Spirit-Locking Inscription" can only effectively seal the activity of plants, unlike the "Ruyi Hundred Treasure Purse," which allows plants, animals, and even humans to have a certain degree of autonomy within its internal space.
Animals and humans can possess self-awareness and even make small movements; plants, in particular, can continue to grow given the necessary conditions!
This trip to Gengxin City, aside from fulfilling the promise to meet and visit Lou Gao again, and laying the groundwork for the Blacksmith Association and establishing a foothold in the Star Luo Empire, is also aimed at leveraging the wisdom of the only two Divine Craftsman on the Douluo Continent, Tie Futu and Lou Gao, to further tackle the challenges related to the "Ruyi Hundred Treasure Purse".
Ling Yi wants to create a super Storage Soul Tool similar to Newt's Suitcase in the world of "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them".
In terms of world attributes and status, as well as the expressiveness and mystery of extraordinary power, the worlds of "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" and the related "Harry" are actually on roughly the same level as the Douluo Continent world where Ling Yi is currently located.
For example, they all transform the concepts of 'time' and 'space' into concrete elements.
The "Time" skill is too advanced for Ling Yi to master right now. However, since the "Undetectable Extension Charm" can be used to create spatial equipment, and combined with other spells, it can create a portable mini-world like Newt's Suitcase, complete with natural elements such as light, clouds, wind, grass, and rivers. There's no reason why Ling Yi couldn't manage a simplified version of a "small farm" with the relatively "half-finished" "Ruyi Hundred Treasure Purse" and various Soul Tool with different functions from the Douluo Continent.
One person's plan is short-sighted, two people's plans are long-sighted.
In this era where forging techniques are still in their infancy, to have someone like Lou Gao, who can create the "Eight Treasure Ruyi Soft Armor" that can counter the Sixth Soul Skill of a powerful Power Attack System with just simple skills, is such a talent that it's hard to ask him to forge any Hidden Weapon.
For the Douluo Continent and for the blacksmith profession, that would be a complete waste!
What was that saying from a past life?
Science and technology are the primary productive forces!
In front of someone as talented as Lou Gao, Uncle Li couldn't possibly peel a raw egg with one hand. He couldn't even peel his own two monk fruits with one hand... cough! That would be like showing off his limited skills before an expert, making him a laughingstock!
After letting his thoughts wander freely for a while, Ling Yi regained his composure and began to infuse each "Blue Silver Grass" with Soul Power, nurturing and stimulating it to absorb external nutrients and accumulate internal energy...
When all the Soul Power was injected, a rosy blush appeared on the horizon. Ling Yi stood up, raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead; this was no small task.
If new varieties of mutated "Blue Silver Grass" are developed, not only will the "Ruyi Hundred Treasure Purse" not be able to hold them all, but Ling Yi will probably have to return to the situation when he only had half a level of Soul Power and was able to cultivate those "Blue Silver Grass" again.
Even after more than ten years, Ling Yi still vividly remembers that experience of perseverance and perseverance.
Ling Yi allowed all the original/mutated "Blue Silver Grass" to spontaneously digest the Soul Power and interact with the aura of wild "Blue Silver Grass" from the outside world. Standing on the open ground in the center, he once again took out the small megaphone and silently shouted to the four directions and the sky.
After a dozen or so breaths, having confirmed that he was not being watched, Ling Yi lifted his toes, inserted them into the grass beneath his feet, and with a flick, revealed a dark hole in the ground.
This was what Ling Yi had retrieved over the previous half-day using his Storage Soul Tool and some tomb-raiding tools he had made long ago.
Using small tools to dig and drill holes, and Storage Soul Tool to collect soil and rocks, they silently dug a hole about 80 centimeters long and wide, and about 2 meters deep underground.
With a light leap, Ling Yi jumped down into the cave. He reached for the Storage Soul Tool on his left wrist with his right hand, took out a thin metal plate, and placed it on the exit above his head, completely sealing off any possible probes from above.
Afterwards, Ling Yi, now free to act, took out the shovel again and exerted his strength of over 3,000 jin. He continued to use the Storage Soul Tool bracelet and the "Ruyi Hundred Treasure Purse" to collect soil and rocks. In just seven or eight minutes, a basement with a length, width, and height of over two meters was completed.
After doing all this, Ling Yi was not in a hurry. Instead, he sat cross-legged and instantly entered Deep Sleep. At the same time, he practiced the Crystal Meditation Method 4.0 and the Advanced Meditation Method 1.0 to restore his depleted mental energy, Soul Power, and physical strength.
This Deep Sleep didn't last long, only a little over ten minutes, before Ling Yi woke up.
Looking up at the several thumb-thick metal pipes inserted diagonally into the ground, feeling the subtle fresh air gently blowing out of the pipes, Ling Yi once again took out a metal block that was one meter long and wide and thirty centimeters thick from his Storage Soul Tool.
With a flick of his finger along the side of the metal block, he lifted up a thin metal plate, no more than a millimeter thick, exactly the same as the one that had blocked the upper exit earlier.
After covering the entire basement with tiles, Ling Yi finally let out a long sigh of relief in this metal house.
Without further ado, Ling Yi patted the "Ruyi Hundred Treasure Purse" and took out a rectangular box made entirely of metal, resembling a coffin.
