This spell module has a very complex set of functions. When it comes to the analysis and processing of various materials, Li Xingkong finds it difficult to understand. After all, he is not familiar with the properties of these materials, and there are many things he has never even seen on Earth Star, let alone understand them.

Even a skilled cook can't cook without rice; it's indeed difficult to understand something if you haven't seen the actual product.

Fortunately, he didn't need to worry about so much; just getting the existing materials on Earth Star was enough.

The second part is the blueprint analysis module. This part is relatively simple; it mainly involves the ability to interpret blueprints.

Just as people need blueprints, so do spells. After all, the Thick Earth City Fortification Technique doesn't have a built-in fixed template; it requires a blueprint from a person when constructing the building.

Previously, people practiced this spell to temporarily build a place to stay when exploring in the wild or entering some secret realm. For cultivators, if it's just a place to stay, a cave will suffice; there's no need to make it too detailed.

Often, they don't even have a sketch; they just come up with a design in their head and start building right away.

However, nuclear power plants have very high requirements for detail in most places, especially inside the reactor, where the requirements for detail are extremely meticulous. Therefore, it is not enough for Li Xingkong to just learn this spell; he must at least practice it to a high degree of proficiency.

The final part of the spell is the construction module, which mainly utilizes the individual's Divine Sense and Spiritual Qi, and also requires a continuous supply of magical Magic Power. Especially when constructing large-scale projects, the amount of Magic Power required is not small.

To achieve the effect of a building rising from the ground with a single point of a finger, even more Magic Power would be required.

The bonding between building materials takes time. Whether it's the mixed mud drying or the cement laid on the ground drying, it all takes time. To shorten this time, you need to use Magic Power to directly drain the moisture between them and forcibly accelerate their solidification time.

Although the spell can be broadly divided into these three modules, the details within each module are numerous, making its structure extremely complex—far more complex than Sword Control Technique.

After using the Hexagram to make some calculations, Li Xingkong estimated that it would take him at least a month to construct the Spell Seed of the Thick Earth City Fortification Technique in his sea of consciousness.

A mere month is nothing compared to fifteen years; I can afford to wait that long.

Moreover, there is an advantage to mastering this magic: once you have built enough nuclear power plants, you can simply cast a spell to create a new nuclear power plant when you build another one.

If he had more blueprints, he could build an entire city all by himself.

Hmm, thinking about this, Li Xingkong scratched his head.

My scalp is so itchy. What use would building a city be to him? It doesn't seem to help him at all, whether it's cultivation, combat, or anything else.

It really is a useless spell.

Having gained a general understanding of magic, it wasn't time to start practicing it directly yet. Before that, Li Xingkong needed to communicate with Old Tang first.

After all, if he were to blindly devote himself to practicing magic, and then find that Old Tang and the others had already started construction by the time he finished, it would be quite awkward.

However, Old Tang is probably still on the space carrier, and their meeting on atmospheric dust control hasn't reached a conclusion yet, so he might not be able to return to Earthly Capital at this time.

Tang Cheng has disappeared without a trace, and we can't get in touch with him.

Li Xingkong thought for a moment, but couldn't think of anyone to contact right now. He only knew these two people in the whole Earthly Capital, and the others were just vague acquaintances; as for friendship, he had only met them a few times.

There was no other way. After thinking it over, Li Xingkong sent a message to Old Tang to see if he had time. If not, he could just send someone to check on the progress.

On the space carrier, although everyone was still in the conference room, the agenda of the conference had been basically finalized, so this was a short break.

Old Tang was chatting with some old acquaintances when his phone suddenly rang. He took it out and glanced at it; it was a message from Li Xingkong.

"Let me guess, it's probably news about that kid Li Xingkong again, right?"

Seeing that Old Tang had just glanced at the message and was about to reply, his old friend sitting next to him grabbed Old Tang's hand.

"What are you doing? Let me tell you, Li Xingkong's matter is a big deal, we can't delay."

" Old Tang, what's the rush? A minute or two won't make a difference."

The man who grabbed Old Tang was dressed in military uniform. Although he looked somewhat old, his attire revealed a carefree and unconventional personality.

"See? I guessed right."

He turned to the others on either side and smiled as he spoke.

" Old Li, just say what you're up to."

Old Tang knew this guy was up to something the moment he saw him like that.

"Nothing much, it's just that we talked about it last time, right? Strengthening the connection between Li Xingkong and our Divine Land, maybe arranging a marriage for him or something. Has there been any progress on that?"

Old Li remained calm and took a sip of water before speaking.

"Yes, this is quite important to us; it's a serious matter."

Upon hearing this, the others sitting to the side also turned their heads. Talented people like this are worth trying to recruit.

"Hey, I thought you were talking about something else, it's not even close to happening yet."

Old Tang shook his head.

" Li Xingkong, that kid, is notoriously a homebody. He's either in seclusion, or he stays home all the time. When he does come out, it's always the same routine: either he stops by the Earthly Capital for a few minutes, or we need his help with something."

"Where are you expecting this young girl to meet him? To steal from his house and get caught? Or to become his parents' nanny?"

"Besides, his family comes from a farming background. Even if they had that much money, they'd still haggle over the price of vegetables. They wouldn't be willing to spend that kind of money to hire someone."

"I really can't do this job, I have no idea how to do it."

When Old Tang said this, his old friends around him laughed. They agreed that Li Xingkong was the kind of person who flew everywhere and didn't even have any connections. It would be extremely difficult to set him up with someone.

"That's why you absolutely shouldn't reply to this message."

Old Li picked up Old Tang's phone and weighed it in his hand.

"His only contact with the outside world is through your Earthly Capital in the capital. Why don't you hurry up and find a young girl to contact him? What are you waiting for? Or do you, old man, think you're so charming?"

Old Li's words enlightened Old Tang.

"You've got a point, kid."

"So, has anyone chosen yet? I think my daughter is quite a catch."

Old Li immediately volunteered.

"Go away, don't push your luck. Choosing the right people isn't something you can just decide casually; it takes effort to find them."

Old Tang waved his hand, "There are plenty of outstanding girls in the world, but they have to be suitable."

"How do you find someone? It's all about fate and compatibility; there's no standard answer."

Old Li scratched his head, wondering what was so important about it.

Who said there's no standard answer?

Old Tang took out his phone, opened a document, and flipped through a few pages.

"For the general public, there is indeed no standard answer to this, but for an individual, the answer is quite easy to find."

"Hey."

He swiped his phone to a picture of a girl. She wasn't particularly beautiful; she just looked ordinary.

"Everyone has a time when they first fall in love, and Li Xingkong is no exception. If you're going to find someone, you'll have to find his white moonlight from back then. Only then will it have any real meaning, understand?"

Old Li took the phone. The girl in the file and her family were all ordinary people with no special experiences. But he knew that Old Tang's plan might actually work.

After all, everyone knows the power of the "white moonlight" (idealized love). As the saying goes, even if the "white moonlight" of yesteryear were standing in front of you now, she would no longer be the same person she was back then.

However, with the full support of the nation, it is not difficult to recreate the idealized image of the past.

However, how much impact this move will have on Li Xingkong remains to be seen.
