The spiritual baptism at the South Pole went very smoothly without any obstacles.
Just like on Mount Everest, the micro-world altered time, allowing Chen Yang to undergo the baptism smoothly. Moreover, Schmond was completely blind, not noticing the process of Chen Yang receiving the baptism.
After this baptism, all of Chen Yang's abilities were enhanced once again, and he vaguely felt that he, the land beneath his feet, and everything around him seemed to have become one.
He no longer felt that his surroundings were murky, but rather that they were incredibly clear, as if everything around him was himself.
Natural inspiration is no longer necessary, because he has a natural communication with all things, especially animals. He doesn't know about plants because there are no plants around, but he can even perceive the wind and light, so he must be able to sense plants as well.
Chen Yang tried conducting Oscar.
The Alaskan Malamute, known as one of the "three silly sled dogs," obediently performed behaviors such as sitting and turning under Chen Yang's command, leading Schmidt to suspect that Chen Yang was actually a professional dog trainer.
After learning that Chen Yang was a friend of Onggi, the people at Amundsen-Scott Station invited him to take a walk around the perimeter of the station, but they still didn't let him into the real core area.
Because of his return of passenger pigeons, Onge is already a household name in the United States. Although they are all academics with different research directions, the people at Amundsen-Scott Station also know Onge, and since they are all environmentalists, they have long admired him.
Only then did Chen Yang realize how famous Weng Ji was in this industry.
"In the past two years, Professor Weng has become even more remarkable. He has received a large amount of funding and is now a global leader in nature conservation. In addition to finding the passenger pigeon, he has also found many other extinct or endangered animals, which he has either sold for free or to countries where they are suitable for survival. Moreover, his papers are also very innovative, and I estimate that he will definitely win the Nobel Prize this year."
Schmond also looked on with admiration when he mentioned Ongi's suitability.
Weng Ji's various studies in the micro-world were not in vain.
The environment of the micro-world is almost a perfect representation of the Earth's ideal environment, making it highly relevant to humankind. Furthermore, the micro-world contains a variety of extinct plants and animals, making it extremely valuable for research.
Weng Jie has been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize twice, and his contributions to the peace of the Earth's ecological environment are undeniable. In particular, his proposed ten-year transformation plans have been implemented in various countries.
Chen Yang was unaware of Onggi's achievements; he only learned about them through the Amundsen-Scott Grand Prix.
It's a good thing that there are so many talented people among the people of the world, and he's happy about that.
After this spiritual baptism, Chen Yang only stayed one night at the Amundsen-Scott station before leaving the next day.
He needed to follow the clues from the micro-world to figure out a way to dig out the remains.
At the South Pole, direction has lost its meaning, because no matter which way you go, you are going north. Therefore, the micro-world's prompts also use longitude lines as coordinates.
After traveling more than ten kilometers along the longitude line provided by the micro-world, Chen Yang suddenly saw an arrow in front of him.
He was slightly surprised, but immediately understood that this was a hint from the micro-world, telling him the approximate location.
Longitude lines can only serve as a reference. Even if a specific location with both latitude and longitude is given, it is easy to dig in the wrong place. If the remains are large, it's fine, but if they are not large, it will be really troublesome.
Chen Yang took the Blade of Tenacity out of the Micro Realm again yesterday.
Only a tenacious blade can break through the ice. Any other weapon or tool trying to dig 500 meters in Antarctica is simply a pipe dream, unless you bring some large machinery or use laser weapons.
Chen Yang neither had the time nor the ability. Even if the Chinese government intervened, they might not be able to transport the equipment here. Not to mention, operations near the pole are extremely difficult for him.
Chen Yang is fine on his own, but if he wants to bring over any large equipment, that's another story.
Therefore, Chen Yang had no choice but to choose the Blade of Tenacity.
He and the European Emperor were very fast; it was only fifty kilometers, and even in the Antarctic environment, they would have arrived in an hour.
The indicator arrow in the micro-world finally stopped, pointing to one spot on the ground.
Chen Yang looked at the thick ice and felt a headache coming on.
This is the heart of Antarctica. Who knows how thick the ice is? If it were the edge of the Antarctic continent, you could still see soil. But here, there's really only ice.
If you were to remove a piece of ice from Antarctica, it would probably be the size of Shanghai. That's enough water to raise global sea levels—no joke. Its thickness and hardness are beyond imagination. Only humans are so amazing as to create an ozone hole at the top of Antarctica, causing the glaciers that have stood for millions of years to begin melting.
However, given Chen Yang's current situation, it's better to be a little thinner.
He swept away the snow, revealing a complete ice surface, and with a forceful downward strike, the tenacious blade pierced the ice.
This surprised him. He then tried with a regular throwing knife. Sure enough, even with Chen Yang's strength, it took four or five hits to completely embed the knife into the ice. This shows how hard the ice was.
However, the Blade of Tenacity truly lives up to its reputation as a product of the Micro Realm. With Chen Yang's power assist, its ability to cut through iron like mud is no joke.
He started digging frantically along the ice, and he discovered that he could focus the light there.
Heat is the best weapon to melt ice.
While gathering light to generate heat, Chen Yang began to chisel and carve with his stubborn blade, working with great efficiency.
Three hours later, Chen Yang stared at the meter-deep pit, speechless.
Chen Yang has something to be proud of: he dug a one-meter-deep pit in Antarctica using brute force.
But... that would take forever!
Chen Yang immediately realized that this would not work.
He rested for a while, then sat down and started thinking of a solution.
The ice is as hard as iron, and chiseling it out is far too slow. If enough flammable material can be found here and burned silently for a day or two, there might still be hope.
However, this is definitely not going to work. Even if flammable materials are found, it won't be hidden from the people at the research station.
In the end, he decided to ask Ongji.
Since there's no cell phone signal, he can only wait for the micro-world to open before asking again. Until then, he will continue to focus his attention and then chisel with unwavering determination.
The ice layer gets harder as you go down, and it's ice that has existed in Antarctica for who knows how many years. Many people use Antarctic ice to melt water, and it sells for a high price because it's truly water that has remained unpolluted for hundreds of millions of years.
