Chapter 389 Science, Cultivation
This sea ship is very huge, with a total of nine floors. The whole ship is built with some kind of spiritual wood, with a defensive formation, and it is also driven by the formation, and it also has defensive weapons.
So, strictly speaking, this is a warship, a warship on the immortal side, a warship.
But that's all. If such a warship is really besieged by several Jindan period cultivators, it is only a matter of time before it is dismantled, and this warship is not suitable for use as a submarine.
Because this ship is made of wood after all, it has great buoyancy and its appearance is not hard enough.
But as long as some modifications are made, all these external structures are removed and replaced with the hardest spiritual steel, it is possible to transform it into a submarine that can dive directly into the trench.
In this way, Lu Pingxi and his team can have a submarine that can reach only 30 floors from the 21st floor. They can directly use this submarine as a base for action, and they don't have to find a new island every time they reach a new floor.
Su Yu said, "Boss, how do you want to transform this sea ship? Do you need me to go to the lower level to find the joint army for the design drawings?"
Lu Pingxi said, "No, I have not been here for nothing for more than a year on the twenty-first floor. I have inspected many sea ships and many immortal creations. I know how to use formations to build submarines suitable for this world."
Su Yu asked again, "But if we build submarines, we may need a lot of steel."
Lu Pingxi nodded, "It doesn't matter. Do you remember the Fire Crystal Sword I gave you? There are also many spiritual iron mines where I found the Fire Crystal Mine. They are countless. Because they are just treasure materials, I don't like them. However, in order to build submarines, these treasure materials happen to be very useful. We only need to find a batch of spiritual coal mines, and then we can start the era of large-scale steelmaking."
High-speed Deer didn't find it strange, because it was normal for Jindan-stage cultivators to look down on treasure materials. Jindan-stage cultivators basically use spiritual materials, and only foundation-building cultivators use treasure materials.
There is no steel in this fairy tower. The reason is that steel is not produced in nature, but is produced by smelting iron into steel. However, the fairy tower does not study chemistry, nor does it make steel. For them, forging is very simple. They just need to use their own spiritual fire to calcine it.
"Moreover," Lu Pingxi continued, "I can add some metal elements to this spiritual steel and then make an alloy!"
Alloys are a more powerful material. If they are well made, they may be able to synthesize spiritual materials artificially!
But I don't believe that using fire crystal ore is a good idea, because the water attribute spiritual energy here is too rich, and the combined attack of fire crystal ore is not suitable for making submarines.
Lu Pingxi immediately said: "Let's search this sea ship immediately. As the base of such a huge organization as Haixian Pavilion, there must be many useful things hidden inside."
Su Yu and Gaosu Gonglu immediately entered the sea ship and began to search.
Haixian Pavilion is a very famous force in this twenty-first floor. First of all, they come from the ocean, so sea monsters will not do anything to them. And because the water attribute aura here is rich, and it is above the ocean, it belongs to their home field, so there are not many forces that are just against them.
Secondly, they are too familiar with this twenty-first floor, so they know where there are treasures and where there are good refining materials.
It can be said that the materials stored on this ship that is half the size of a medium-sized island may be more than all the materials on a medium-sized island.
Sure enough, under the search of Su Yu and the high-speed deer, they searched out countless rare treasures.
There are precious refining materials, precious magic weapons, precious elixirs, precious spells, and precious ingredients.
Most importantly, Su Yu and his team searched out a warehouse of ice crystal ore!
Su Yu was overjoyed. She said, "Boss, are these ice crystals enough for us to use? It may not be enough to make the shell, but it may be enough to combine them into alloys!"
Lu Pingxi nodded: "Yes, for making submarines, water-attributed materials are better."
Ice crystals are spiritual materials of the same level as fire crystals, but in this tenth floor, fire crystals are much more precious than ice crystals.
The reason is that the water-attributed spiritual energy here is rich, so there are a lot of ice crystals, almost as much as precious materials, so they are not very valuable.
But for Lu Pingxi, it's enough that the ice crystals are useful, and even if the ice crystals on the ship are not enough, he can get them from other places.
Lu Pingxi said to Su Yu and Gaosu Gonglu: "Now I'm going to the fishing island to dig out all the spiritual iron ore in the seabed, and then bring it here. You guard this ship and start the dismantling work."
Lu Pingxi didn't plan to drive the ship over there. It was too close to Qunxian Island, so it might attract the attention of other practitioners. It's better to stop the ship nearby, and then he will go back to collect all the spiritual iron ore.
Su Yu and Gaosu Gonglu received the order.
Then, Lu Pingxi immediately rushed back to the fishing island. After returning, he immediately sank to the bottom of the sea, and then found the ruined city under the sea, and came to the mine with ease.
The sea dragon began to sleep in the shallow water again, and it didn't notice Lu Pingxi's arrival at all.
And Lu Pingxi immediately entered the mine cave, and then released countless puppets to start mining the spiritual iron ore in the mine cave.
The way he mined was not to knock with a manuscript, but to directly use the earth control technique to separate the rocks and the land, and then take out the spiritual iron ore and put it into the storage bag.
Therefore, he mined very quickly. In just three days, he had mined all the spiritual iron ore in the mine.
Then, he left here again, and the sea dragon was still unaware. It was guarding here, but unexpectedly, everything inside was plundered by Lu Pingxi. At this moment, there was really nothing else in the mine except magma.
Lu Pingxi returned with a full load. After returning to the ship, he immediately started the reconstruction of the ship.
First, the outer shell of the ship that was in the way was dismantled, and then a temporary island was built. Then, a steelmaking plant and an alloy manufacturing plant were immediately built.
These two factories were not difficult for Lu Pingxi, who was in the Jindan period, to build, and the spiritual fire produced by the spiritual wood was also very hot and very resistant to burning. A piece of wood was enough to burn for three days and three nights.
This factory was guarded by Su Yu, and Lu Pingxi released many puppets, which were free labor.
Then, Lu Pingxi began to design the core of the submarine.
The core of a submarine is very important. This part is the core of the submarine, and a powerful power system needs to be designed. In the future, the power of the submarine will be provided by this power system.
And this power system makes Lu Pingxi feel troubled.
