Chapter 548: Appearance of Qi-trainers!
Translator: flycrane01 Editor: Millman97
Now that his belief was firm again and he knew what he was aiming for, Li Yao felt that he was no longer lost, although he was wandering on a perilous, unknown planet all by himself . He retrieved the objects inside his Cosmos Rings and accessed them while he pondered what he was going to do next .
Firstly, the Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit .
During the fierce battle with Fengyu Zhong, the breastplate of the crystal suit had been pierced by Fengyu Zhong's spear, which left a terrifying hole there . The two pieces of plate armor had completely lost all functionality .
Then, he was blown brutally by the blast from the outbreak of the planetary ring . Thankfully, Li Yao had not been facing the planetary ring, or the blast might have charged into his body through the hole on his chest and minced him into pieces!
Although his life had been saved, the power rune arrays and the crystal reactor on the back of the Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit had all been seriously damaged and were on the brink of destruction . It would not resume its combat ability without major maintenance .
The Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit was no longer as awesome as it had been in the planetary ring . Shocking traces of claw marks could be found on the surface of the lackluster armor, as if the crystal suit had been savaged brutally by a deadly beast .
Li Yao felt his heart pounding the moment he saw the traces .
They were the result of horrifying demon beasts lurking inside the atmosphere of Iron Plateau when he was falling through it .
The atmosphere of Iron Plateau was like a layer of thin, grey mist . Such demon beasts had been hiding inside the grey mist and blending themselves in with it . Their speed was also too high for Li Yao to see what they looked like clearly . Moreover, more than ten of them had appeared at the same time and hunted the prey collaboratively . They were quite difficult to deal with .
To escape from the demon beasts, Li Yao had exploited the last bit of potential of his Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit at the risk of breaking down in the sky . He was lucky enough to have gotten rid of the predators .
The crystal reactor has to be replaced . More than half of the crystal processor has been blown up, too . I have to find a place to fully maintain the crystal suit and give it a rebirth!
Li Yao scratched his head . Where could he repair his crystal suit on such a desolate, uninhabited planet?
There were no Spiritual Towers in space near Iron Plateau Space Zone, which meant that the area had no network .
The atmosphere of Iron Plateau seemed a bit odd, too . It was extremely difficult to receive the messages of the outside world, not to mention sending signals out .
This planet was like a lone island in the boundless sea of stars that was completely isolated from the rest of the universe .
Li Yao could only rely to himself to repair the Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit so that he could rush out of Iron Plateau with no fear of the flying demon beasts living inside the atmosphere .
But even if he rushed out of Iron Plateau, he might not be able to find a starship to board on because there were very few sailing routes in the Iron Plateau Space Zone, which had always known to be a forbidden area for Cultivators .
Crystal suits were perfect for short-distance battles in space, but a long journey from one space zone to another one? That would be a joke!
It meant that he would also need a starship that could at least cruise across space zones . He couldn't help but wonder whether or not there had ever been such a thing on Iron Plateau .
Li Yao sighed and focused his attention on examining the other items .
The good news was that he was not short of food and clean water .
The large quality of supplies he had looted from Fengyu Ming had never been used however hard his life was, even if he had to buy leek pies in a vegetable market . Now, his frugalness had given him a great return . The food was sufficient for him to survive for quite a few years .
A moment ago, he had gone out to hunt the giant worm not because he lacked food, but because he needed the super alloys that the giant worm condensed inside its body .
The giant worms were like natural furnaces . They could swallow all kinds of minerals and transform them into hard super alloys, which looked like pearls, after a series of complicated chemical reactions inside their bodies . When they were attacking, the super alloys would be spurted as bullets .
When Li Yao discovered the habit, he had risked hunting several such giant worms and gathered a lot of alloys, hoping that the materials would be of use to his maintenance work later .
Although he had excessive food and clean water, the tremendous crystals that Fengyu Ming had kept inside his Cosmos Ring had run out a long time ago . Half of them were used for his personal training, and the other half were refined into crystal bombs . There weren't any left .
After the previous consumptions, especially the spendthrift uses in the planetary ring at the end of the battle, his storage of crystal bombs was running low, too . There were only a few of them left now .
As for his weapons, the Boiled Blood Wind Slashing Saber had suffered the most damage because of the head-on clash with Fengyu Zhong's Devil's cry . Both the surface and the interior of the blade were riddled with small cracks . If it was not examined and repaired in time, the saber would crumble after another few clashes .
There was a tiny dent on his Purple Electric Blue Fire Claw, too . The light flames right now were much feebler when it was condensed into a drill of mystic rays .
"This must be what is called 'no ammo and no food'," muttered Li Yao with a self-mocking smile .
Two streaks of brightness, one black and the other red, flew out of his Cosmos Ring and circled him .
The black one wagged its tail while it was flying in a cocky manner, as if it were saying, "Hey, do you know who the most reliable one is now?"
"Little Black, stop horsing around!"
Li Yao's mood finally got better when he saw Black Wing .
The mysterious flying sword that his foster father had passed on to him had not been of much use after he left the Heaven's Origin Sector . He had merely installed it to the back of the Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit . When necessary, it could provide additional momentum to improve the speed and agility of the Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit .
However, the flying sword seemed to be very unsatisfied about Li Yao's arrangement . When he landed on Iron Plateau, his flying sword had been coming out once in a while by itself and hit Li Yao . Yes . It had been hitting Li Yao's head with the handle of the sword . Li Yao was more than pissed!
As for the red streak, it was 'Neltharion', a piece of magical equipment used to train its users to steer a starship .
