"Ten years." Chen Qingyu sighed softly.
"Honestly, this time is still too short. Even if we stand on the shoulders of our predecessors, it is almost impossible to complete hundreds of years of accumulation in ten years."
"Even with an entropy accelerator, isn't that possible?"
"Power is a very important part of spacecraft construction, but it takes more than just power to build a spacecraft."
The two walked side by side towards the hall of the shelter. Chen Qingyu explained the current difficulties to Xiaoran as they walked.
"This is a massive undertaking, involving a closed, self-circulating system and a life support system... Simply put, it involves solving the most basic problems of food, water, and air. It sounds simple, but simple things are the most difficult."
"Can't the previous data be used? Is there any good solution?"
"There are many different theories about this, and each company has its own approach. We have to find our own path."
The two men passed by several busy employees and nodded to each other.
"The biggest problem now is... computing power." Chen Qingyu rubbed his eyebrows, which has almost become his signature action.
“Computing power?”
"You can simply think of it as computing power... Some of the company's hardware facilities are really poor, and Xiaohuo has told me about this many times. If we can solve the hardware problem, perhaps we can shorten the development time."
"I see, you just need to buy a new computer, right?" Gong Xiaoran understood. "Don't worry, just leave these things to me."
"mother!"
A clear female voice sounded from the front, Tianqiu ran out from the crowd and threw herself into Gong Xiaoran's arms.
As the newest member, Tianqiu, the youngest, became everyone's favorite, making the slightly depressing atmosphere of the shelter much more lively.
"Qiu'er." Xiaoran rubbed her head lovingly. "Don't just wander around. Have you started practicing the technique I told you to practice?"
"Oh right, bring this up!"
Chen Qingyu's tone suddenly became excited, and Gong Xiaoran looked at him with a puzzled look on his face. Qingyu's face rarely showed such obvious emotional fluctuations.
"Are you okay?"
"Listen to me, don't rush to let Qiu'er practice..." Chen Qingyu looked around and saw that there was no one around, so he whispered something into Xiaoran's ear.
"Are you serious?!" Xiaoran's face also showed surprise.
"Guaranteed! But we still have to wait until Elder Chu wakes up."
——
Time passed quickly, and three days passed in a blink of an eye.
Chu Yao woke up slowly from her sleep. When she opened her eyes, she saw a figure with black hair and white clothes standing beside the bed.
“Ghost!”
Chu Yao howled.
The "ghost" in front of him shuddered and spoke helplessly:
"Look carefully at who I am! You are so sleepy! You are a ghost player and you are afraid of ghosts?"
"Oh, it's you, Senior Sister! I was so scared." Chu Yao put her hands on her chest. "I thought I was possessed by evil spirits... Senior Sister, you should take care of your hair when you have time."
"Is my hair really that messy?" Bai Yuejian reached out and combed her hair. "It's not that exaggerated, is it?"
Chu Yao stretched vigorously, then jumped out of the bed. "How long have I slept?"
"Three days."
"So long?"
"The spiritual power in your body has been severely depleted. If Xiaoran hadn't called me over, you would have had to lie down for another ten days or half a month." Bai Yuejian held Chu Yao's wrist and checked her physical condition.
"I heard everything she told me about what happened to you in Yaxiu Sea. How did you escape from the hands of that Nascent Soul cultivator?"
"It's a long story..."
Chu Yao told her senior sister everything that happened after she met Yu Chen.
"I didn't expect your stolen identity would come in handy here. You're really lucky."
"I just don't know what Yu Chen is planning. If he wants Maowei Company to take the blame for him, he's making a mistake." Chu Yao smiled smugly. "If he dares to come, I'll throw the Entropy Weapon in his face!"
"Xiao Huo told me that something seemed to be going on in Unjust City while you were negotiating."
"Looks like we've become bait to lure Jack away?" Chu Yao rolled his eyes in thought. "Forget it, I don't want to get involved with these big powers anymore... If they want to fight, let them fight on their own."
"That's right." Bai Yuejian nodded. "If you hadn't come to save Tianqiu, you wouldn't have stumbled into the trap set by this cultivator named Yu... Let's not talk about this for now. Qingyu has good news. Tell me to go find him when you wake up."
"Good news? Did he come up with another entropy tank?" Chu Yao blinked. "Then let's go."
Chu Yao followed Bai Yuejian out of the room. Everyone they met on the way stopped what they were doing and saluted her, their eyes full of admiration.
She was enjoying everyone's admiration very proudly, and her arrogant look made Bai Yuejian want to punch her.
"Alright, alright, go away and stop showing off."
The two came to a small meeting room. Not long after, Xiaoran and Qingyu also came in from outside. It seemed that there were only four of them in this meeting.
They were already familiar enough with each other that there was no need for small talk. Qing Yu got straight to the point:
"As Elder Chu indicated earlier, I've carefully studied Ferman's information." Chen Qingyu found a chair and sat down. "I can only say that it's no wonder the people at Steel Dome reacted so strongly. The value of this thing is simply immeasurable. It's hard to imagine such a genius appearing on Lingyuan Star."
"Fehrman's research fills the gaps in Lian Jining's previous experiments, and the previously puzzling problem has been completely solved!"
"Qingyu, you can just tell me the conclusion." Chu Yao waved his hand. Every time he talked about serious matters, it was like he was giving a speech. "What's the solution? Can it restore our cultivation?"
Chen Qingyu and Chu Yao looked at each other and answered affirmatively: "Yes."
"Oh, it can be restored... Wait, what did you say?!"
Chu Yao's heart skipped a beat. Before she could react, she asked, "Have you really found a way to restore your cultivation?"
"Found it." Chen Qingyu nodded confidently. "All of his research revolves around factors and psychic energy, and he elaborated on the implementation methods of 'refined technology' in detail!"
"How can this be achieved? What is the success rate?"
"There's a lot of stuff involved here, so to make it short, these researchers refer to the physical qualities that make a psychic a 'spiritual body'... Calling it a physical condition is a bit vague. The 'spiritual body' encompasses everything in a cultivator's body that supports the physiological and nervous systems needed to cultivate psychic energy. It's a bit like a spiritual root, but the two are subordinate to each other."
"Hmm..." Chu Yao tried her best to understand Qing Yu's meaning. "You'd better give an example, otherwise I'd better go straight to the information."
"Compared to mortals, a cultivator's 'spiritual body' is like a special 'shadow' added to an ordinary person's body." Chen Qingyu stood up and poured himself a glass of water. "Is that a good enough description?"
