The spirits are quite lovable when they don't suffer from constipation or loss of appetite.
Stellar Sand, this specialty product, is the first method Ye Zhongming prepared.
He intends to incorporate this material into equipment manufacturing.
In Ye Zhongming's view, Stellar Sand is an essence of the Star Spirit itself, similar to Nourishing Life Soil, truly sharing the same quality and origin.
If he can successfully use them in the refining process, the chances of resonating with the elemental spirits would be immense.
The second method is actually quite similar to the first, theoretically also aiming to make the equipment similar to the Star Spirit to some extent.
Ye Zhongming instructs the Star Spirit to use its own power to refine the equipment.
This is quite challenging, and it is fortunate that the mature Star Spirit possesses high intelligence; otherwise, it would be difficult to understand Ye Zhongming’s intentions.
Firstly, the materials need to be processed, from Dragon Scales to everything else, all burned and refined using the Star Spirit's own energy, while also inscribing special carvings on them.
Ye Zhongming only assists and guides. Since the Star Spirit has never done such work before, from the very beginning of manufacturing, Ye Zhongming had to teach the Star Spirit in a very detailed, hands-on manner, almost step by step.
Even so, most others listening were still quite confused. The reason the Star Spirit could accurately perform the refining actions as required was largely due to the tacit understanding between it and Ye Zhongming.
The dual guidance of consciousness and language allowed the Star Spirit to possibly complete these tasks.
However, even with perfect cooperation, it was still their first collaboration.
Throughout the process, there were many errors and misalignments, leading to manufacturing failures.
In front of everyone’s eyes, the number of failures went from single digits to double digits, and then from double digits to triple digits.
The discarded Dragon Scales and various high-grade materials caused everyone great sorrow.
In just a short while, the items that had turned to waste could potentially be sold for enough to buy the mothership they were currently piloting.
Chao Yang, watching from the side, was even more anxious. Each failure meant a corresponding number of Dragon Scales written off.
Even though their Dragon Race's sacred ground has the largest number of Dragon Scales, they couldn't withstand such a rate of consumption.
In just a few days, including the Dragon Scales Ye Zhongming consumed while manufacturing, the total number has approached a thousand, and what did they get in return? Only a little over a hundred usable normal equipment.
It is true that Dragon Scales are among the most abundant of the many legacies, but they still face the issue of energy loss due to the passage of time.
Some Dragon Scales that have been around for too long have had their energy dissipated severely, basically only maintaining the brink of their peak.
If it weren’t for the powerful imprint left by their previous owners, they would be considered ordinary-grade Dragon Scales.
If Ye Zhongming cannot succeed in a few more days and continues to fail at this rate, Chao Yang believes that the number of Dragon Scales within the eight sacred grounds of the Dragon Race will decline to a concerning level.
Tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of Dragon Scales could be consumed as a result.
Fortunately, blessed by the Dragon God, amidst Chao Yang's worries, Ye Zhongming and the Star Spirit finally succeeded in one of their joint refinements.
A beautiful phantasmal energy armor appeared before everyone.
The armor had a rustic style, not as elaborate as those currently popular among the All Races of the Universe.
Although this meant the functionality was relatively singular, what Ye Zhongming pursued was merely to withstand the space-time storm; other attributes were just additional effects brought by various materials.
