Ingenious Move Cracks the Energy Source

"Formation?" Zhu Ban's brow suddenly furrowed. "You mean this energy source is actually a Formation Stone?"

"Yes," Lin Xiaosu said.

"Qianlong also has people who study formations. They proposed the same idea as you, but after examining this energy source, they rejected it, because it isn't a Formation Stone. Its entire force field is also vastly different from ordinary formations." Heavenly King Miaoyin cut in.

Lin Xiaosu said, "A two-word answer! Rare indeed!"

"Rare?"

"Formations are rare, and Formation Stones are rare too!" Lin Xiaosu said. "This Formation Stone has fused the power of the Five Elements. It isn't a single attribute, but an all-attribute Formation Stone. I've never seen an all-attribute Formation Stone before either."

Formation Stones possessed natural attributes.

For example, the most common metal, wood, water, fire, and earth of the Five Elements inherently generated and restrained one another.

It was exceedingly difficult for them to appear on the same stone at once.

Therefore, most Formation Stones had only one attribute. Even dual-attribute Formation Stones would eventually become single-attribute stones beneath the crushing force of the Heavenly Dao over hundreds of millions of years. For instance, fire could restrain wood. A Formation Stone containing both fire and wood attributes would destroy the wood attribute over a long span of time, ultimately leaving only the fire attribute.

Only when all Five Elements gathered together, generating and restraining one another to achieve a dynamic balance, could the attributes of all Five Elements coexist for a long time.

To sum it up in one sentence, a Five Elements Formation Stone was equivalent to a naturally formed integrated circuit board.

After that explanation, everyone was left lost in clouds and mist...

Blue Demon spoke up. "You mean there's a way to replicate the energy stone?"

"Yes," Lin Xiaosu said. "If we
