Half an hour later, Lin Yun placed both devices in their positions and started them up.

"Two devices, a total of 1,600 spirit crystals, can collect resources worth about 300 spirit crystals per day..." Lin Yun rushed out of the sea, got back into the flying car, and said softly.

This is the result of his calculation.

Every day, the ratio of his harvest to his purchase of specialized equipment for absorbing and refining spiritual energy is close to five to one, which even exceeds the spiritual crystals he obtains from such equipment.

In addition, the collection equipment he has purchased is not considered high-end. If he were to purchase more advanced collection equipment, his harvest would be even greater.

Of course, the resource-rich areas discovered by those detection devices are not actually rich in resources. If he were to switch to advanced collection equipment, he could quickly collect all the resources and would have to frequently change locations.

Lin Yun didn't want to go through all that trouble and waste the time he spent gaining spiritual insights in Shenzhen, so this level of resource collection equipment was just right.

However, it cannot be denied that if Lin Yun were willing to go through some trouble, his gains would exceed those of accumulating spiritual crystals to purchase those professional equipment for absorbing and refining spiritual energy, which has led to considerable development.

However, Lin Yun did not forget one thing.

These resources are there; they will belong to him sooner or later. Even if he doesn't collect them now, they will still belong to him later.

He might develop faster this way... but when he reaches a certain point, he'll find that the more resources he loses, the longer he develops.

This resource is difficult to regenerate.

The spiritual energy emitted by life on Earth at all times is a constantly regenerating resource. If he tries to absorb and refine it every few days, he will waste a large amount of spiritual crystals.

Therefore, going forward, Lin Yun will continue to purchase specialized equipment for absorbing and refining spiritual energy, and then absorb the spiritual energy emitted by life on Earth at all times. This will be his primary mode of development.

Other methods can only be supplementary.

Half an hour later, Lin Yun arrived near the Mo family's ship again.

There were still three ships. Because of the attack a few days ago, the Mo family's three ships had been out of service for a while and had only recently resumed sailing. Therefore, these three ships were still far from Shenzhen.

"Bang—bang—bang—"

Although it was not nighttime, Lin Yun still made a move, using a similar attack method to the last one.

After quickly attacking three ships in the sea, Lin Yun took the invisible flying car and sank into the deep sea silently. When he reached a certain depth, he switched to a submarine and continued to dive deeper into the sea.

"What happened?"

"The ship has been attacked?"

Because it was daytime, most of the people on the ships were awake, and the attack on the three ships was noticed by most of them the moment it happened, with many people exclaiming in surprise.

"Unable to be repaired..."

"Abandon ship, otherwise, the people on board will be in danger..."

Soon, news arrived one after another, causing the faces of some of the higher-ups on the three ships to darken.

A few days ago, their group's ships were attacked. Their senior management specifically instructed them to be extra careful. Unexpectedly, they were attacked again shortly after setting sail.

Some of the group's senior executives are right; their group's ships are being targeted.

"give up……"

"Get people evacuated immediately..."

However, the ship had already suffered irreparable damage, and they had no choice but to issue such an order.

Half an hour later, Lin Yun retrieved the three hulls from the seabed and began his return journey to Shenzhen.

"These three ships actually contain rare minerals..."

Lin Yun sensed the trading space and the items inside the three ships, and smiled.

This time, the quantity of rare minerals exceeded that of the last time. After briefly organizing the items in the three ships, Lin Yun sold everything to another shopkeeper, earning a total of 670 spirit crystals.

The previous shopkeeper said that next time he would sell him this kind of ship, the price wouldn't be so high. He wouldn't be so stupid as to sell these things to that shopkeeper again.

There are many shops on the cosmic trading system that do this kind of business. Similarly, because some of the technologies on the three ships are worth studying, this shop also gave Lin Yun a higher price.

However, it wasn't much higher, about the same as the previous shop. This shows that the previous shop didn't rip him off much; this is probably the market price on the cosmic trading system.

Spending an extra hour or two to gain over six hundred more spirit crystals for free was quite a worthwhile deal. Most importantly, it dealt another heavy blow to the Mo family, which made Lin Yun very happy.

Let these guys shut down their own businesses, let them do what they want.

This is just the beginning.

Originally, the spiritual crystals on the cosmic trading system had dwindled to just over 700 after purchasing the two resource collectors; now, they've reached over 1,400 again.

Lin Yun didn't buy anything else. He planned to buy an advanced resource collector when the resource detectors discovered a large mine, or he would buy a professional device for absorbing and refining spiritual energy when he had accumulated another five thousand spiritual crystals.

At his current rate of acquiring spirit crystals, he could accumulate five thousand spirit crystals in less than two days.

If we take into account the spiritual crystals he currently possesses, the speed becomes even faster.

In short, he is now lacking a new level two spirituality.

I wonder if Lang Jiuping and his group have made contact with the new Level 2 spiritual beings, and when they can bring them over.

He suddenly realized that, at his current rate of development, he needed a new Level 2 spiritual entity every two days, and in a few more days, he might even need a Level 2 spiritual entity every day. Lang Jiuping and his group might not be able to meet his needs.

If he doesn't want to rely on this circle of spirit seekers, he will need to find some new secondary spirits on his own.

One billion for a level two spiritual being is not cheap. If he finds a new level two spiritual being himself, he can save a considerable amount of money.

...

"What? Three ships, attacked again? And all sunk?"

"Are those people just sitting around doing nothing? Weren't we told to be careful?"

"Have you discovered which force launched the attack?"

Just as Lin Yun returned to Shenzhen, the Mo family received the news, and some of the Mo family's senior executives were furious.

Three 200,000-ton ocean-going vessels... plus the items inside... that's almost another 3 billion in losses...

This is also a considerable loss for the Mo family.

"Damn it! The escort team we sent hasn't arrived yet!" a high-ranking member of the Mo family said angrily.

"According to the descriptions of those subordinates, even if our escort fleet arrives, it may not be able to protect those three ships. It seems that our Mo family's ships are indeed being targeted!" A high-ranking member of the Mo family shook his head slightly and said.

"Immediately halt all shipping, not just on this route, but on other routes as well. The other side's strength at sea is clearly considerable. If we continue like this, all the money we've earned from shipping over the years will be lost!" The head of the Mo family took a deep breath and said.

With six 200,000-ton ships sunk, the Mo family will no longer be able to continue their shipping business in the short term. It would be better for them to abandon the shipping business before the impact spreads.

The other party has considerable strength at sea, and the Mo family cannot afford to pay such large sums of money at unpredictable times.

"How's the situation at Qingyun Company?" At this moment, the head of the Mo family noticed another high-ranking member of the Mo family and asked.

“The online public opinion has weakened, but there are reports of discontent coming from Beijing. There must be other forces behind this. The products launched by Qingyun Company have all proven to be extraordinary, and the profits they represent are not a small number…” the Mo family executive hurriedly said.

"We can't wait any longer. Let's take full action. The news that the Mo family's six 200,000-ton ships were sunk twice by unknown forces can't be kept secret. In fact, it might have been done by other major domestic forces. Otherwise, we wouldn't have been able to find no trace of it. This incident has also affected the prestige of our Mo family..." The head of the Mo family nodded slightly and said.

"What does the patriarch mean?" The expression on the Mo family's senior member's face changed slightly.

"There's no time to lose; we must strike swiftly and decisively to bring this matter to a conclusion!" the Mo family patriarch said coldly.

"This matter still requires the help of the Lu family..." As he spoke, the head of the Mo family looked up at Lu Minghui on the other side.

During this period, the Mo family and the Lu family cooperated, and the Mo family did not hide many things from the Lu family.

“Master Mo, there’s a saying that goes, ‘Great minds think alike.’ My grandfather shares your opinion. Today, my grandfather has already mentioned this matter to Minghui. Even if you hadn’t brought it up, I would have brought it up to you.” Lu Minghui said with a smile.

“My grandfather said that the Lu family will handle things in Beijing…” Lu Minghui paused before continuing.

“Alright, that’s settled then. In a moment…” The head of the Mo family nodded, then turned to some of the Mo family’s senior members and began to give instructions for the next steps.

This matter involves a martial arts grandmaster, so it cannot be handled casually. We must take him down with a swift and decisive strike, otherwise, both of our major powers may encounter some unnecessary trouble.
