Time passed slowly. Just as Ning Chuan extended his rake toward a pile of metallic wreckage, his spiritual power suddenly caught a faint yet exceptionally stable fluctuation.
This energy fluctuation was not intense. Instead, it was restrained, carrying a rhythm that faintly resonated with the surrounding space!
The fluctuation came from beneath the metal wreckage.
Ning Chuan's heart stirred, and his movements immediately became gentle and careful.
Carefully pushing aside several twisted steel plates and shattered crystals, the rake's teeth finally hooked out an object the size of a palm.
It was a compass-like object, dark and aged bronze all over, with its edges wrapped in an unknown dark silver metal that gave it a rather weighty appearance.
The surface of the compass bore no ordinary directional markings. Instead, it was covered in countless hair-thin grooves that crisscrossed one another, forming an intricate three-dimensional array pattern filled with geometric beauty.
At the core of the pattern were three crystals of different colors, though they were currently dull and without luster.
Most striking of all, three ancient seal-script characters were engraved on the back of the compass—"Minor Teleportation."
"An Array Disk?!" Ning Chuan's eyes burst with delighted light!
Judging from the Array Disk's form, runes, and the name "Minor Teleportation," it was very likely a magical artifact capable of spatial transportation!
Suppressing his excitement, Ning Chuan did not rashly inject Soul Power into it or touch it. Instead, he said to the Station, "Station! Perform a full scan of this Array Disk! Assess its integrity, functions, activation method, energy requirements, and potential risks!"
"Scanning..." Silver light emitted by the platform enveloped the Array Disk.
"Target: Damaged Minor Teleportation Array Disk."
"Origin: Standard-issue escape artifact from a sect in a cultivation plane."
"Status: Main structure intact. Core array runes 85% intact. Portions
