Chapter 702 - 447: Let the Whole World See What I See
Wang Ye’s current speed only supports near-Earth activities.
Going to the Moon should not be a problem.
Moreover, the current extent of human exploration on the Moon is not high.
It’s quite possible that the lunar underground conceals the Extraterrestrial Crystal Cluster Vein Wang Ye needs now.
So the next target.
Is very clear.
First, find a way to go to the Moon, but this is a highly involved matter, as the Moon, being Earth’s natural satellite, is intertwined with many of Earth’s natural laws.
The Moon’s most significant impact on Earth is the tidal reaction; the Moon’s gravity causes Earth’s seawater to rise and fall periodically. Tidal peaks form on the near and far sides of the Moon, resulting in twice-daily tidal movements.
This tidal reaction also shaped Earth’s coastlines, transporting minerals to the ocean, forming life on Earth. Without the Moon, it’s possible that humans and life on Earth might not exist.
Additionally, the Moon also slows down Earth’s rotation. Four billion years ago, Earth’s rotation was just four hours per turn; it has only recently slowed to twenty-four hours. Finally, the Moon’s gravity also anchors Earth’s rotation axis, maintaining an approximate 23.5-degree tilt, preventing drastic shifts like Mars’ 10°-80°, thus forming stable seasonal climates.
Although these are the developments that the Moon influences Earth through, it also means Earth has developed a dependence on the Moon. If the Moon suddenly disappeared, Earth would face an apocalypse.
Since this matter could affect Earth’s entire safety, only those Wang Ye trusts can know about it. He can discuss this with Old Yi before heading to the Moon for exploration.
Secondly, there is the task of collecting the Crystal Cluster Vein hidden in the deepest parts of the Mariana Trench. Wang Ye, now possessing a Nuclear Fusion Organ, has greatly increased strength and should have the capability to collect it.
In fact, that thing isn’t particularly hard; Wang Ye has always thought of various methods to collect it—for example, using the Heaven and Earth Enlargement to break the crystal clusters with extreme force, or using carbon acetylene to create a drill bit to grind the crystal clusters. However, these methods would cause extensive damage to the surroundings and produce an excess of crystal cluster fragments, increasing the concentration of indigo Qi in seawater, potentially causing widespread mutation in sea creatures, threatening humans on land.
Hence, Wang Ye has been waiting for his normal powers to evolve to a certain level before cautiously collecting the Crystal Cluster. Now that his normal power has increased to over a thousand tons, he should have the ability to easily collect the Crystal Cluster Vein.
However, the total mass of the Extraterrestrial Crystal Cluster Vein in the depths of the Mariana Trench is substantial, and collecting it all would make it difficult for Wang Ye to find a reliable storage place.
So he doesn’t plan to collect it all at once but rather collect as needed. As for other countries’ schemes regarding the Extraterrestrial Crystal Cluster Vein, Wang Ye isn’t currently worried—a single Megalodon is enough to deter them for many years.
Looking back, Wang Ye’s rate of using the Crystal Cluster Vein isn’t particularly fast, but it definitely isn’t slow either.
This is because whether it’s cultivation, evolution, or cloning, they all require the Crystal Cluster Vein and the indigo Qi it reacts with liquid to form.
Moreover, during long-term experiments, Wang Ye discovered a method to accelerate the decomposition speed of the Crystal Cluster Vein.
That is to decompose or grind the Crystal Cluster Vein into fine powder and throw it into liquid.
As a result, the powder will quickly dissolve into the liquid, similar to making soy milk. Clumpy soy milk is hard to dissolve even with boiling water, but when powdered and stirred with a spoon, it quickly dissolves into a smooth drink.
Although the hardness of the Crystal Cluster is very high, requiring considerable effort to grind, the benefits are significant.
Wang Ye specifically tested that finely powdered Crystal Clusters, compared to whole chunks thrown in, have decomposition speeds that are at least ten to a hundred times faster.
The resulting indigo Qi mist also has higher concentration, yielding better evolutionary effects.
For this Nuclear Fusion Organ implantation, Wang Ye also carries about a hundred grams of Crystal Cluster fragments, and whenever he feels evolution stalling, he throws some into the sea.
I have to say, this thing truly is a good resource—when used throughout the daily evolution process, it can boost his evolution speed to several times the normal rate.
However, under such extravagant usage,
the fragments he had previously brought back are nearly exhausted.
Wang Ye needs to quickly return to the Mariana Trench to collect more.
This will not only enhance his strength but also accelerate the progress of his cloning technology research.
The sooner he completes the Phoenix Plan, the sooner he can truly become invincible on Earth and even in the cosmos.
Apart from these goals.
The last thing Wang Ye needs to do is find Old Yi to discuss nuclear test defense matters.
As an extreme sports blogger, he still hasn’t forgotten his interest, which is to challenge extremes.
However, for him, it’s hard to find challenges that can be deemed extreme on Earth.
So Wang Ye plans to replace the final two items of Ozaki’s Eight,
Master of Six Lives and Ultimate Trust, with more challenging content.
The original Master of Six Lives and Ultimate Trust was to free-climb the Venezuela Waterfall and jump off from it.
