Chapter 107 Discovery of Special Materials
She Jin recalled the feeling of drinking the potion yesterday. He was in so much pain that he was unconscious and thought he would die from the pain. Unexpectedly, he woke up and realized that the lady was his savior. He was abandoned by his trusted teammates, but was saved by a stranger he had never met before.
After Ning Xuan collected the purple marrow star-veined grass, she originally planned to leave, but was delayed by She Jin's matter. When Lin Mo was free, she was bored and her eyes turned to the corpses of flying elephant ants all over the ground.
The flying elephant ant colonies died from different ways of attack, some were poisoned, some were burned, some were killed by sonic attacks, and some were hacked to death by sharp weapons. Different ways of death left different traces, but no matter what the way of death, most of the bodies of the flying elephant ants were broken into pieces.
The flying elephant ant is a social flying beast that is unique to the Lingxiao Secret Realm. There is no record of the flying elephant ant in the Star Network information. They were able to recognize this beast because they had two maps of the Lingxiao Secret Realm and people who had been in and out of the Lingxiao Secret Realm before had mentioned this beast.
Looking at the red ant shells all over the ground, Ning Xuan was a little curious. She picked up a flying elephant ant and gathered the broken pieces of ant shell in her palm. In the sunlight, she suddenly caught a glimpse of a faint light reflected from the ant shell fragments.
She gathered her strength with her fingertips and flicked lightly. A transparent, cicada-like wing suddenly floated up, making a faint buzzing sound in the breeze.
"This is..." She held her breath and looked closer. A folding knife-shaped wing membrane as thin as mist was hovering three inches above her palm. Under the refraction of the sunlight, the ice blade-like edge was flowing with iridescence. If you look closely, you can see the fine texture on it. She reached out to touch it, and the thin wing retreated as if it was rejecting it. Ning Xuan mobilized the fire energy to her fingertips and gently roasted it. The thin wing suddenly burst out with a ray of silver light, and in the blink of an eye it returned to normal.
She suddenly remembered the basic book on refining equipment, "The Atlas of Hundred Refining Equipment", which mentioned that any material that is naturally immune to energy attacks is an excellent and precious refining material.
Ning Xuan used her finger as a knife to chop at the wing membrane. This time she used a little more energy. The thin wing suddenly retreated and disappeared.
Ning Xuan quickly found more than a dozen transparent thin wings among the broken ant shells on the ground. They were still in the shape of a folding knife, exactly the same as the previous one. She found a dozen more in each area that had suffered different attacks and discovered that no matter what kind of attack these thin wings of the strange beasts suffered, they were not damaged at all. The toxins could not corrode them, and the scorching flames and sharp swords could not harm them at all. Not only that, they could even rebound some of the attacks, and use the rebound force to push themselves back to avoid the attacks.
"What a strong natural material! It's thin, light and strong, immune to fire energy, has built-in stealth properties, and can even bounce back some attacks." Ning Xuan's eyes rippled with excitement.
She carefully pinched the Art of Controlling Objects and held the thin wings in her hands. Looking closely, she found that the surface of each wing membrane was covered with honeycomb patterns. When she pinched them and injected her own energy into them, there was a "buzz" sound and the thin wings emitted a ray of red light.
"That's great. It can even hold energy." Ning Xuan muttered to herself.
Leng Yue saw Ning Xuan walking around in front of a pile of ant shells and couldn't help but say, "Miss Ning, these flying elephant ants are small in size and are small crustaceans. They have no meat or feathers, and their shells are so brittle. There is nothing good about them. You don't want to collect them, do you?" Leng Yue looked at the broken ant shells on the ground with disdain.
Ning Xuan glanced at him and ignored him. She called Chen Nan aside and said a few words to him. Then, Ning Xuan and Chen Nan got busy. Those transparent thin wings were mixed among the ant shells. It was too troublesome to distinguish them one by one. Ning Xuan simply asked Chen Nan to put all the ant shells and corpses into the space button with her. Anyway, she brought enough space buttons, so she was not worried about not having enough space.
Leng Yue saw Ning Xuan actually collecting those useless ant shells and ignoring him, and he felt a little embarrassed. After a while, he saw the two of them busy cleaning up, and he couldn't help but come over and said, "Miss Ning, you see there are still so many, why don't I come and help."
He had finally helped a little in the battle today and barely won a little bit of goodwill. How could he just stand by and watch now?
"You were also involved in the battle just now. If you want these things, just take them yourself." Ning Xuan answered him.
"I don't want it, Miss Ning. I'm just helping you collect it. Give me a space button and I'll help you now." Leng Yue said quickly when he saw Ning Xuan paying attention to him.
"Really? No. These could be good things." Ning Xuan said, pointing at the still dense red ant shells on the ground.
"No, no, I agreed to collect them for you." Seeing that Ning Xuan was going to take away the ant shells and ant corpses, Leng Yue didn't dare to say that these things were a pile of useless garbage.
"Here you go. You won't work for nothing. I will pay you." Ning Xuan threw an empty air button to Leng Yue.
Most of the transparent thin wings that Ning Xuan wanted were still on the ant corpses and connected to them. Some of them had separated from the ant corpses and were mixed in the broken ant shells. These thin wings that had separated from the ant corpses could easily float in the air and not be discovered during the collection process. Therefore, after Ning Xuan swept all the red ant shells and ant corpses on the ground into the space button, she asked Leng Yue and Chen Nan to stand further away. Ning Xuan pinched her fingers with both hands, bit her fingertips, and threw the blood from her fingertips into the air. Then she circulated the fire energy at her fingertips, and "swished" drew a flame rune in the air. The span of the rune was as long as three meters. At the moment the rune was completed, there was a "bang", and a raging fire burned in the air and quickly spread out.
In the firelight, there were some silver lights scattered around. Ning Xuan was quick-eyed and quick-handed. As soon as she saw the silver light, she reached out to grab it and soon collected hundreds of ant wings.
Ning Xuan searched the entire central area, and Lin Mo happened to come back at this time. It was not too early, so if he wanted to go back to the cave to spend the night, he had to set off now.
Ning Xuan gave Leng Yue two bottles of prepared ambergris miasma-clearing potion, saying it was a reward for her help, and then returned to the cave.
Leng Yue was very self-aware and did not ask again. He followed them into the cave and found another place to rest nearby. Just when he was eating dinner alone, Yan Fuzhen came with his men.
Yan Fuzhen looked at him and sighed. Leng Yue couldn't help rubbing her arms, "Butler Yan, why are you sighing? I get scared when you sigh."
Yan Fu is truly Ying Shuai's steward, he is extremely capable, calm, and reliable. No matter how difficult the task is, it is a breeze for him. When have you ever seen him sigh?
