Chapter 406: What a Formidable Being!
Translator: flycrane01 Editor: Millman97
"Good lord, what is this—"
The six Orb Patrollers all thought that they'd seen a lot of things, but what they saw right now still dumbfounded them . Their hearts seemed to be tossed into the middle of the surging tide, bouncing up and down with no way to calm down .
After passing through the steep mountains, they'd found a vast, black plateau, on which countless absolutely vertical black lines were standing while they pierced into the sky and protruded out of the atmosphere .
As they drew close, they finally realized that the 'black lines' were actually giant pillars more than a hundred meters in diameter .
The cylinders were more than a hundred meters in diameter and dozens of kilometers long without the slightest error . There was no telling what the cylinders were made of . They didn't collapse because of their own weight, nor were they weathered or worn by thousands of years of climate changes and crustal movements; they just stood silently on the rugged land of Ultimacy .
The indifference of the black pillars indicated the formidability of their creator!
Everybody held their breath faced with such an unbelievable splendor . They circled around the black pillars time and time again, only to become more confused than before .
Li Yao drew his dagger and scratched the pillar, trying to retrieve some powder for future research .
But he failed to leave any trace on the black pillar even though he exerted all his strength . The material and the technology making up the giant pillars were indeed too advanced to fathom .
Li Yao clicked his tongue . Whatever those black pillars were made of, it was much solider than many super metals recorded in the classics of the Hundred Smelting Clan . Flying swords, armor, and starships would be indestructible if they were refined out of such materials!
If he could figure out the distribution of the materials and learn the method of refining, the war potential of the Star Glory Federation would be upgraded by many levels .
Ultimacy was indeed a place full of treasure!
Right then, he heard Yan Yangtian's cry in the communication channel .
Li Yao was greatly alarmed . He quickly moved to where Yan Yangtian was, only to find that she was not in any danger but was floating in front of one of the black pillars in a daze .
Li Yao raised his eyebrow and looked at the black pillar . His eyes immediately widened, and his pupils dilated in shock .
Three scratches that were several meters deep had been left on this particular black pillar which was indestructible in Li Yao's understanding . A claw more than ten meters in diameter must've snatched down from the sky and torn the black pillar apart easily!
"What kind of magnificent being could leave scratch marks like this?!"
Greatly amazed, Li Yao flew toward to the depths of the black pillars .
He noticed that the distribution of the black pillars was apparently in a pattern . They seemed to form a giant array . The closer he got to the center, the more scratches he found on the black pillars .
After their surfaces were broken, the black pillars were not able to withstand the weathering of time despite their unparalleled hardness . Small granules could be found on the edge of the scratches . Li Yao finally gathered some powder .
By preliminary analysis, the powder was neither metal nor stone, but it was emitting intense spiritual waves, indicating that its raw materials were among the best Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures .
As for what the raw materials were specifically, it could only be found out when they were back in the Heaven's Origin Sector's labs .
Li Yao even found a broken claw inside the hole of one of the scratch marks .
Technically speaking, it was just a talon, but it was already as long as an adult . It was bright gold, somewhat curved, and extremely sharp .
It took them an hour of hard work to pull the talon out of the black pillar .
Li Yao swung the talon gently . Like the most excellent saber, the talon roared and raised immense spiritual waves, unleashing an aura that was almost fifteen meters long .
"Good heavens! This is definitely one of the best Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures! It can enhance my spiritual energy by 200% without being refined . It will definitely be a marvelous saber if it is refined properly!"
Li Yao's eyes were beaming with joy . He was almost drooling .
His Boiled Blood Wind Slashing Saber was refined out of rarely-seen marrow blood crystals from the Blood Demon Sector and dozens of other marrow crystals and Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures based on the ancient refining technology of the Hundred Smelting Clan . But the blood aura triggered by the saber was no longer than ten meters .
The talon could unleash a fifteen-meters-long aura without being refined whatsoever!
Besides, its shape and weight were very similar to those of a heavy saber, and it felt comfortable in his hands .
If he could refine the talon together with his Boiled Blood Wind Slashing Saber, the strength of his weapon would at least be doubled .
Li Yao stored the talon inside his Cosmos Ring without any hesitation .
As the refiner and the expert in saber arts in the team, he was naturally the most suitable guardian of such a saber-shaped Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure . Should it be needed, its strength would be maximized in his hands .
Li Yao had made up his mind that he would redeem this talon no matter how many contribution points he had to pay .
As one of the explorers of the item, he had the priority of redemption . Even Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators could not compete with him .
While he was drawing dozens of refining plans in his mind, his teammates made more shocking discoveries .
