"However, because it is in an environment rich in spiritual energy, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth slowly accumulates in the white crystal over time, and the white crystal gradually transforms into a spiritual stone containing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth."

After a pause, Luo Qing said weakly, "But I want to simplify this process. After all, it takes too long to slowly accumulate spiritual energy in the white crystal. So I was thinking of creating a high-pressure environment full of spiritual energy and forcibly injecting it into the white crystal. Wouldn't that greatly shorten the time it takes for the white crystal to accumulate spiritual energy and form a spirit stone?"

That's a unique way of thinking!

But there's some truth to it!

Night Breeze thought to himself, while Zijing said, "You're just daydreaming. If you could really create spirit stones, then spirit stones would be worthless."

"But I succeeded! I created a spirit stone!" Luo Qing shouted.

"You succeeded? You're not kidding? Then I don't understand, if you successfully created the spirit stone, then what was the explosion all about?" Zijing was even more curious.

Ye Feng's face also showed curiosity.

Luo Qing sighed and said, "I did create spirit stones, Ancestor. I didn't lie. My approach was correct. However, spirit stones created by injecting spiritual energy under high pressure are very unstable."

"I accidentally activated the spiritual energy hidden within the spirit stone, and then it exploded..."

"The spirit stone I created was on the table, less than half a meter away from me, so when it exploded, I didn't have time to react and was injured like this instantly..."

Luo Qing said with a wronged expression, looking so pitiful that Ye Feng felt a pang of sympathy.

"How do you create a high-pressure environment?" Night Wind asked.

“I forged a mechanical device in the blacksmith’s workshop,” Luo Qing replied.

It seems that Ye Feng's design of the psionic steam engine inspired Luo Qing, so Luo Qing did the same.

"It's very sturdy and shouldn't have been destroyed. It's still inside the tent. You should be able to find it if you look for it," Luo Qing said.

“Your tent is gone,” Zijing said.

Luo Qing was too lazy to argue with Zijing, so she directly told the two guards, "You two go and look for it. That thing is a square-shaped iron lump that is very heavy and has several formations on it."

"Yes, Miss."

The two guards nodded and went to search together.

Before long, a dark, cube-shaped iron lump appeared in front of Yefeng and Zijing.

This iron lump wasn't very big, only one foot on each side. It had several arrays set up on it, and a few spirit stones were inlaid on its surface.

"Let me demonstrate it for you now, and you'll understand after you see it," Luo Qing said.

"Let's not do it again, you've already done it once," Zijing said.

"Try it boldly. With me here, even if it explodes again, you'll be safe," Night Wind said.

"I feel relieved to hear your words, Ancestor."

Luo Qing smiled, then took out a white crystal from her storage ring and placed it into the square mechanical device to prepare for the creation of spirit stones.

“I call this device the Spirit Pressure Device because its interior will soon be filled with spiritual energy and pressure.”

Luo Qing explained, and then activated the array above.

The Spirit Gathering Array was the first to start operating, and then one array after another was successfully lit up.

The surrounding spiritual energy gathered towards the spiritual pressure device. Although the spiritual pressure device remained motionless, both Ye Feng and Zi Jing could feel the intense fluctuations of spiritual energy emanating from it.

Only about fifteen minutes had passed, and the spiritual energy and pressure inside the spiritual pressure device had already reached a terrifying level.

Although Luo Qing had already created a spirit stone once using the spiritual pressure device, she was still a little nervous.

Fortunately, after about half an hour, the process of making spirit stones finally came to an end safely.

Luo Qing opened the spiritual pressure device and took out the white crystal from it.

But the colorless, transparent white crystal from before has now transformed into a spirit stone that shimmers with a pale blue light.

“Ancestor, look, this is the spirit stone I created. You must be careful and never try to activate the spiritual energy inside, it is very unstable,” Luo Qing said cautiously.

“I know,” Night Wind said.

Although Zijing watched curiously as Yefeng took the artificial spirit stone from Luo Qing's hand, she had already taken several steps back in case the artificial spirit stone suddenly exploded.

The two guards were also somewhat frightened, their faces showing considerable tension, but they dared not retreat and could only swallow their saliva and stand there with a stiff upper lip.

Ye Feng took the artificial spirit stone made by Luo Qing and examined it closely. He saw that the spiritual energy inside was like clouds and mist or flowing water, constantly churning and surging.

After inspecting it for quite some time, Ye Feng finally realized the danger of this artificial spirit stone.

Because this artificial spirit stone contains a large amount of spiritual energy from heaven and earth, its state is unstable, and the spiritual artifact inside may explode.

However, under normal circumstances, this artificial spirit stone will not explode.

It will only explode if it is subjected to a very violent impact, or if it is stimulated by spiritual energy or true energy.

Moreover, this artificial spirit stone contains a lot of spiritual energy, and its explosive power is also very strong. If it is close to the target, even a True Yuan Realm martial artist will be injured by the explosion, and even a Divine Travel Realm martial artist will suffer a great loss if caught off guard.

Luo Qing was really lucky to have survived the explosion.

“This kind of spirit stone is definitely not the same as a natural spirit stone,” Ye Feng said.

Upon hearing this, Luo Qing's face showed disappointment.

Zijing shrugged and said, "Of course. If artificial spirit stones could rival natural spirit stones, then spirit stones would really be everywhere."

Ye Feng glared at Zi Jing before turning to look at Luo Qing.

“I haven’t finished speaking yet. Although the artificial spirit stones you’ve created cannot compare to natural spirit stones, they have other uses,” Ye Feng said.

"Other uses?" Luo Qing asked curiously.

“The explosion just now was so powerful that martial artists below the Separation and Union Realm would not survive it. Since this artificial spirit stone has such great power, why can’t we use it as a special offensive spirit weapon?” Ye Feng said with a smile.

"But how do you use it? Do you throw it out and hit someone, and then it explodes with a bang?" Luo Qing asked疑惑地.

"This depends on you, Qing'er. If you can design a time-delay detonation device and combine it with this artificial spirit stone, then it will be fully usable," Ye Feng said earnestly.

Upon hearing this, Luo Qing's eyes immediately lit up.

Zijing asked, "But what's the use of this? The martial arts techniques of martial artists in the Separation and Union Realm or even the True Essence Realm are no less powerful than these artificial spirit stones."
