The flying boat flew for nearly a month in total. In Lou Xiaoyi's opinion, if Zhenren didn't like fighting so much, they could have gone faster!
During the whole process, the two of them did not exchange a word. Lou Xiaoyi could understand that there was no common topic; a real person with unlimited future and a little foundation builder who was destined to eat and die in Shaxing, what could they have to talk about?
?
Among the many stars in the universe that are suitable for biological survival, there is one thing in common, which is color! The color is basically between blue and green, because the most inseparable thing for living things is water!
But the sand star is earthy yellow, which is basically synonymous with the desolate star, even if it has an atmosphere, even if it has some clever ideas!
In terms of size, the size of Sand Star is a bit like the moon in its previous life. Only with such a small size can it be captured by the attraction of the Five Rings and become one of the behemoth satellites of the Five Rings.
The atmosphere of the sand star is very thin, as if it will collapse at any time, but the magic of nature is that for thousands of years, the sand star has survived without any danger. No matter how thin the atmosphere is, it is still a star.
A planet where humans can barely survive!
Of course, it refers to monks, not a huge number of mortals!
The flying boat swooped down, passing through the thin air layer, and a hundred-foot-tall sand tower appeared in Lou Xiaoyi's sight, getting closer and closer!
But the airship did not land. Instead, it circled around hundreds of feet in the air. Then Lou Xiaoyi felt an irresistible force pushing him out of the airship. The airship then shook, passed through the air layer again, and disappeared without a trace.
No trace!
As for that? Lou Xiaoyi didn’t have time to complain, because his first question was how to balance his body!
He can fly, but the environment is different and the conditions for flying are also different; simply put, because the Shaxing is too small, the gravity here is completely different from that of the Five Rings. He needs to be familiar with the specific environment here before falling to the ground.
!
It’s not difficult! It’s just not easy to get used to! It’s like people living on earth were suddenly thrown to the moon.
First, he had an understanding of the sand tower. After actually seeing it, he had to sincerely admire Daxiu's ability. Originally, he thought that in a planet like Sand Star, which is almost entirely desert terrain, the materials used to build the sand tower must be monks.
It was brought from outside, and Overhaul had such ability. But now it seems that the construction of the sand tower was basically based on local materials, which is very magical.
It was probably because the Five Elements Basic Principle was used to gather sand into a tower in a way that he could not understand. Not only would it not be damaged in the wind and sand, but it would be a self-repairing process.
The sand tower is different from normal human pagoda buildings. Its internal space does not consider human living habits, so it is completely different in structure. There is no obvious layering and no stairs. It is basically a huge vertical array supporting it.
The structure of the entire sand tower.
Hanging in the sky, looking around, you can already vaguely see the arc of the horizon in the distance. This is the characteristic of a small star; you can't go higher, and you will be out of the gas layer if you go higher. He is not living in the void of the universe.
Ability.
The first thing he did on the sand star was to fly around the entire star to determine the true size of the star. This process took him five days; a foundation builder could orbit it in only five days with his pitiful speed.
A circle of stars shows that this star is also very small.
What I saw during the five days, apart from the yellow sand is still yellow sand, the geography of the entire Sand Star. Except for the area around the sand tower where the soil is still visible because the terrain is the highest, the rest of the place is basically covered by desert, which is what the Sand Star looks like.
only.
There are living creatures, all of which are lower creatures and are still in the primary stage of species evolution. If this environment remains unchanged, spiritual beasts may be born in tens of thousands of years, but not now; in Yin Ye’s words, Shaxing
It should be a fragment that fell apart after a huge nebula exploded. By chance, because it had not completely formed its own orbit, it was captured by the passing five rings.
Another strong feeling is the large temperature difference. This is also a common problem of thin air layers on small stars. Because there is no buffer of a thick enough atmosphere, the temperature changes are far less gentle than those of normal stars. Monks can still withstand it, but for mortals
To put it bluntly, this is hell.
But for Lou Xiaoyi, this is actually a good thing. Because of the thin atmosphere, he is closer to the billions of stars in the universe, which is conducive to his practice of star skills. For a person who puts the direction of pill formation in the direction of the stars,
For those who live in the city, this is a more suitable place than the Fifth Ring Road!
When you come back from a circle, you stand on the top of the sand tower and look around, you see the vast yellow sand; sometimes the wind blows and the entire sky is covered with gray, which makes people feel a sense of independence.
And this feeling seemed to be familiar. It was the feeling of being in the Gobi Desert, the home planet. It was intimate but far away. He never thought that after a hundred years of foundation building practice, he would return to the starting point of the desert. Is this a coincidence?
Overall, this environment was not beyond his expectations and within the acceptable range.
The sky is blue, the sand is vast, the wind blows the dust and no sheep can be seen...
Lou Xiaoyi completely relaxed here, because this place is the most suitable for the two stages in his life where he has the deepest feelings!
One is the loneliness developed during countless years of wandering in the universe, and the other is the Gobi Desert where one learns and grows when he first enters the human world...
Here, through the thin atmosphere, he had the urge to penetrate it, and then merge into the vast and distant deep space of the universe. He no longer had to think about anything else. This was the deepest consciousness he had ever experienced since traveling through time.
There is another kind of consciousness: Young Master Sima, who was born and raised on his home planet, has a deep attachment to the environment of Pucheng.
Daily work? Non-existent! The operation of the sand tower is completely controlled by its internal five-element mechanism. There is no possibility of damage. As long as the five elements of heaven and earth are there, it will live forever. What Lou Xiaoyi has to do is to replenish the magic circle on time.
Spirit stones, the spiritual energy in this place is still much worse than that of the Five Rings. The magic circle's own speed of collecting spiritual energy still cannot keep up with the consumption, because this sand tower is emitting its own information fluctuations in all directions of the deep space all the time, so as to
It is used by monks passing by to determine their specific location.
In a place like this with the nature of a lighthouse, it is actually a matter of whether or not people are left there, but if there are people there, many unexpected situations can be dealt with.
There have also been monks who proposed to use artifacts with spiritual intelligence to replace them. They will be more dedicated to their duties and will not need to pick up and replace them for thousands of years. However, artifacts with spiritual intelligence are rare, and human beings have countless foundation-building minor repairs. It is hard to say which method to choose.
And metaphor.
Lou Xiaoyi finally found a place where he didn’t have to worry about being disturbed and could come and go freely as he pleased!
At least at this stage, Shaxing belongs to him alone!
