The mecha shook violently, and Ye Ling almost thought she had hit a wall.
"What's going on? Did some mechanism get triggered?" she muttered, looking around vigilantly.
Smoke-like particles slowly condensed, and an illusory figure appeared in front of Ye Ling.
The figure looked like a young girl, wearing a flowing robe and emitting a faint fluorescent light.
"Hello, Ye Ling." The figure said softly, the voice as clear as a wind chime, "I am Su Ran..."
Su Ran?
Why does this name sound familiar?
Ye Ling tried hard to recall, but had no clue.
"Who are you? Why do you know my name?"
Su Ran smiled faintly. "I am the spirit of this ruin, guarding its secrets. I know your name because I knew you were coming." She paused, then continued, "The special materials and technology you seek are in a secret room deep within these ruins."
Ye Ling's eyes lit up instantly. This was simply a pillow delivered to her when she was sleepy!
"Really? That's awesome! Take me there!"
Su Ran shook his head: "Unfortunately, I am bound here by a powerful restriction and cannot leave. Only after the restriction is removed can I take you to the secret room."
Ye Ling followed Su Ran's gaze and saw a stone wall engraved with complex patterns, emitting a strange light.
This restriction seemed more complicated than any formation she had cracked before. The densely packed lines were like a tangled mess, making her scalp tingle.
"This...this is too complicated!" Ye Ling couldn't help but complain, "Any hints? Like, some ideas for solving the problem?"
Su Ran smiled apologetically. "This restriction is very old, and I can't remember the specific solution. However, I can tell you that it has similar principles to some of the formations you are using now. As long as you study it carefully, you will definitely find a way to break it."
Ye Ling took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down.
"Okay, it's just a restriction. I don't believe I can't solve it!" She began to carefully observe the patterns on the restriction, looking for the patterns in them.
Time passed minute by minute, and beads of sweat appeared on Ye Ling's forehead.
Suddenly, she had a flash of inspiration and thought of a formation that she had cracked before.
"Wait, this pattern... looks like the Star Array!" She quickly mobilized her knowledge and began trying to break the restriction.
After some effort, the light on the ban gradually dimmed and eventually disappeared completely.
Su Ran's figure became more solid. She smiled gratefully at Ye Ling: "Thank you, you are such a smart and brave girl."
Su Ran brought Ye Ling to the secret room and pushed open the heavy stone door. Ye Ling was stunned by the scene before her.
The secret room is filled with various rare materials, emitting dazzling light.
The walls are also engraved with various technical information, recording the long-lost mecha technology.
"This...this is too much!" Ye Ling was so excited that she was incoherent.
Su Ran pointed to a metal that shimmered with a rainbow of colors and said, "This is meteorite iron. It can significantly improve the performance of the mecha." She then pointed to another pile of materials and said, "This is energy crystal. It can provide the mecha with powerful energy."
Ye Ling felt like she was dreaming. This was all too unbelievable.
She couldn't wait to start modifying her mecha to make it more powerful.
"Okay, now we have the materials and technology..." Ye Ling rubbed her hands, her eyes filled with excitement, "Next, it's time to witness a miracle!"
Ye Ling rolled up her sleeves and got to work!
With meteorite iron and energy crystals, plus the lost mecha technology on the wall, wouldn't it be a matter of minutes to transform the mecha?
She took her mecha apart into pieces like a child taking apart a toy, and then began to assemble new parts according to the instructions on the blueprint.
As pieces of meteorite iron were embedded into the mecha, the surface of the mecha began to sparkle with colorful light, which was simply blinding!
"666, this special effect is even cooler than a concert!" Ye Ling couldn't help but brag.
The energy crystal was also perfectly integrated into the mecha's energy system, and the surging energy fluctuations made the surrounding air tremble slightly.
This scene stunned Elder Xuanqing and other cultivators who had originally sneered at mechas.
"This...this mecha can actually do this?" Lin Yu widened his eyes, feeling that his cognition had been refreshed.
Elder Xuanqing stroked his beard, and a hint of imperceptible admiration flashed in his eyes. It seems that the combination of mecha and cultivation can really create a different spark.
Duan Yu stood aside, watching Ye Ling busying around, his eyes full of tenderness and pride.
This girl is really capable!
Ye Ling felt Duan Yu's gaze and looked up at him with a sweet smile. There was no need for many words between the two of them, as everything was implied.
At this moment, Ye Ling's communicator suddenly rang.
"Emergency notice! Large energy fluctuations have been detected in the outer universe, and a new threat is suspected to be approaching!" The shrill alarm made Ye Ling's heart sink suddenly.
Coming so soon?
She glanced at the brand new mecha, and a hint of determination flashed in her eyes.
"It seems that the new mecha's first actual combat is about to come." Ye Ling took a deep breath and looked at Duan Yu, "Let's go, let's go meet these guys from outer space together!"
Duan Yu gripped the sword tightly, a fierce look flashing in his eyes. "I'll fight you to the end!"
Suddenly, a strange noise came from deep within the ruins, and the ground began to shake violently...
"What's going on?" Ye Ling turned around suddenly and looked in the direction where the sound came from.
