Island Elf: Jade

[Rank: Extraordinary]

[Characteristics: Leyline Spirit, naturally gifted at manipulating leyline energy and controlling strong winds. It has a symbiotic relationship with leyline blocks; it will not die unless the leylines are destroyed. Furthermore, this spirit seems to possess some extraordinary abilities; its computational power is exceptional.]

[Skill 1: Energy Extraction. This spirit can use its ability to manipulate energy to disrupt the leyline network, continuously improving the quality of the leylines. It can also directly extract energy from within the leylines to create energy cubes.]

[Skill 2: Gale Control. This spirit can consume ley line energy to control the gale. Within the island's area, her control over the gale is extremely strong.]

[Skill 3: Multiple Thinking. This spirit is formed from a high-purity crystal. This energy seems to enhance her mental abilities, allowing her to think about and calculate multiple things simultaneously.]

Lin Xu was pleasantly surprised by Xiao Yu's various abilities.

Like Tao Yao, Xiao Yu is also a transcendent-level spirit, and she can also revive infinitely.

As for Tao Yao's three skills, they also seem quite formidable.

The first energy extraction is an extremely valuable capability.

The value of the ability to improve and regulate the earth's veins goes without saying, but Xiaoyu can even directly extract and create energy blocks, which is a huge surprise.

Energy cubes are not cheap, mass-produced goods.

A low-purity energy block can sell for at least 1 million Federal Credits. Many advanced equipment used by island owners, including weapons and production facilities, can only rely on energy blocks once the earth vein energy is no longer available.

In particular, some machines that can operate outside the island, such as energy airships and floating giant shields, rely on stored energy to operate, meaning they all require energy blocks to provide power.

Therefore, the more powerful the island owner, the more they value energy blocks as a resource, and energy blocks circulating in the market can easily find buyers.

This thing can be considered the official hard currency of the island lord, and its value as a currency is even higher than that of the Federal Coin.

However, while energy cubes are important, the technology to create them is not so easy to obtain.

Even for energy blocks of average purity, there are at least a dozen processing steps, all involving highly complex machinery and techniques that you absolutely cannot learn in school.

Unsurprisingly, this technology has also been monopolized by nobles, and only mid-level island lords at the earl level or above are likely to possess the complete energy block manufacturing technology.

Commoners should not even dream of learning the production process of this thing. Even if a highly talented mechanic signs a contract to sell himself into servitude to a nobleman for life, he can at most learn one or two of the energy block production techniques. It is impossible for him to learn the complete production process.

Lin Xu's original plan included acquiring the technology to make energy blocks, since this thing was too important; once the island had developed to a certain scale, it would be impossible to do without energy blocks.

Although the chances of obtaining this craft from nobles are slim, he can explore the island world.

Moreover, his talent for mechanical engineering is strong enough that he can recreate similar techniques once he gathers the relevant information.

But to his surprise, before he could even begin these plans, Xiaoyu's skills had already accomplished this.

Now, with just one ley line block and Jade herself, he can continuously produce energy blocks.

The value of this is simply immense.

Moreover, Xiaoyu's skill is not only used for production.

If Lin Xu had no relevant reference points, it would be extremely difficult to research and develop energy block manufacturing technology out of thin air; it would be almost like drawing a lottery in a pool of one in ten million.

But now that Xiaoyu demonstrates the process of extracting energy blocks each time, Lin Xu has realized that the energy block extraction process is much simpler.

In this way, if there is too much ley line energy in the future and Xiaoyu is unable to extract all of it by herself, Lin Xu can easily create an energy block production line and industrialize the energy block industry.

The potential value of this product is no less than that of the peach industry, and it can definitely be a major asset.

Lin Xu looked at Xiao Yu with delight, waiting for her to use her abilities herself.

However, Xiaoyu didn't use her energy extraction ability at this moment. Instead, she proudly puffed out her chest and stretched out one hand:

"Master, I'm going to demonstrate my ability to ride the wind!"

As she said this, clusters of air began to gather around Xiaoyu's palm.

As the island's owner, Lin Xu could vaguely sense the island's condition.

He could sense that the air currents across the entire island were indeed beginning to change.

The changes on the island's surface were not obvious, but the airflow beneath the island began to concentrate rapidly.

The island suddenly trembled slightly, then broke through the breeze and began to slowly move in one direction.

Tao Yao became excited and clapped her hands, saying:

"The islands are flying! We can fly around in the sky now!"

Lin Xu was also pleasantly surprised.

Wind-controlling ability!

He had been looking forward to the idea that the leyline crystal spirit would possess this ability.

Now Xiaoyu has indeed awakened this ability!

This is a characteristic of the ley line block, and also its signature power; as expected, he was able to obtain it smoothly with his enchanting abilities.

The island has indeed started moving, and the speed is slowly increasing.

Lin Xu:

"Xiaoyu, what's the fastest speed you can reach by flying over the island, and are there any limitations?"

Even when Xiaoyu was flying across the entire island, she seemed to be handling it with ease:

"The fastest speed we can reach right now is 100 kilometers per hour, but it takes 5 hours to accelerate. The limitation is that this kind of movement consumes ley line energy, about 3 points of energy per day."

"Only 3 energy points?"

Lin Xu's eyes lit up.

He had assumed that flying over the island would consume all the energy from the ley lines, meaning he would have to carefully consider energy allocation when moving and couldn't just fly around aimlessly all day.

But I didn't expect that the actual consumption was so little. His ley lines were stacked with 46 layers of existence, which could produce 46 points of energy per day.

Xiaoyu seemed to have misunderstood Lin Xu's meaning, and lowered her head slightly:

"I'm sorry, Master. My abilities are currently limited, and I can't control the energy consumption of Wind Control very precisely, which is why it consumes so much energy. But as I consume more energy blocks and ley crystals in the future, I can continue to upgrade and will definitely be able to reduce energy consumption to a very low level in the future!"

Lin Xu chuckled as he looked at Xiaoyu's nervous expression.

"Xiaoyu, you've done a great job. I'll definitely provide you with plenty of resources for your upgrade. But this little bit of energy consumption is nothing to me right now. You can take a look at the ley line block you're coexisting with and see how much energy it can generate every day."

Xiaoyu relaxed a little after Lin Xu's comforting words, and then looked at the ley line blocks with some confusion.

She was only a newborn and didn't know much about the island. She just thought it was a bit small and didn't know about the strange things and secrets hidden there.

Xiaoyu arrived in front of the ley line block, puzzled. She used her energy perception to examine the ley lines, and the next moment, her small mouth opened:

"How could this be! The cores of the earth's veins are actually stacked together, with forty-six layers of power overlapping each other! Is there such a miraculous creation in the world?!"
