Chapter 1221: Starlight Stone
"Breakthrough probability?" Su Yu nodded as he heard this.
Materials that could aid in a "breakthrough" were invariably extremely rare, though he himself had never been particularly worried about such matters.
At the same time, an electronic article appeared before Su Yu, detailing the Starlight Stone.
The article provided a comprehensive overview of the Starlight Stone, including its origin, distribution, rarity, and historical development. Key points were highlighted with red boxes.
Just by reading this article, one could gain a thorough understanding of the Starlight Stone.
Having AI Blue Whale around was indeed convenient!
Whatever information Su Yu needed, it could quickly filter from its database and present it to him.
Su Yu scanned the article quickly, and soon he had a good grasp of the Starlight Stone:
As a material of cosmic rarity, the Starlight Stone had a wide range of functions.
For example, it could serve as a carrier for high-precision instruments, as a material for crafting planetary-level psychic artifacts, and even as a key component in the creation of super AI!
Take the "Hymn Tower" Su Yu had seen earlier; the core control area of the tower extensively used Starlight Stone to ensure the stability of AI signal radiation.
Besides these functions, the most important use of the Starlight Stone was to help planetary-level cultivators break through their bottlenecks!
Breaking through to a higher minor realm was very difficult for planetary-level cultivators.
Especially when advancing from the third stage to the fourth, the sixth to the seventh, and the ninth to the tenth stages, many powerful cultivators spent their entire lives unable to make this leap.
However, the Starlight Stone could help them achieve enlightenment, significantly increasing the probability of a successful breakthrough. The more Starlight Stones used, the more pronounced the effect!
Due to these characteristics and its extreme rarity, the Starlight Stone became a highly sought-after material among planetary-level cultivators.
Over time, Starlight Stones cut into a fixed shape and size (a cube with sides of 13.4 cm) became a standard unit of exchange, serving as the primary currency among planetary-level cultivators.
Even among stellar-level and above cultivators, where the effect of Starlight Stones was minimal, they still retained the habit of using them for transactions, finding it more convenient than using Sacred Silver Coins.
...
As Su Yu read the introduction to the Starlight Stone, he couldn't help but marvel, "Using Starlight Stones to break through bottlenecks is like burning money! One stone costs a hundred million Psychic Coins, and who knows how many you'd need for a single breakthrough."
"Indeed, the expenses can be quite substantial," AI Blue Whale responded. "For example, when breaking through from the third stage to the fourth, some cultivators might not need any Starlight Stones, or they might only need one or two. But others might need a dozen or even two dozen.
However, this doesn't apply to you. You are following the 'civilization binding' cultivation path, where your strength is directly tied to the development level of the civilization you bind to. You don't need to worry about breakthroughs.
Even with the significant leaps in strength from planetary to stellar levels, as long as the civilization's development reaches the necessary stage, everything will fall into place without any bottleneck issues."
Su Yu smiled, "Looks like I've saved a lot of Sacred Silver Coins!"
Morning Star, the cat, looked envious, "That's amazing! Can I also choose this cultivation path in the future?"
"Advanced User Morning Star, of course, you can choose this cultivation path," AI Blue Whale replied.
However, it quickly added, "But our current resources are limited and concentrated on Su Yu. We might not have a suitable civilization for you to bind to."
”
"That's a shame," Morning star sighed.
Su Yu gently stroked the cat’s head, trying to comfort him, "Don’t worry, Morning Star. When the boat reaches the bridge, everything will naturally fall into place. The future is still unknown, but no matter what, I will do my best to help you and Alyssa enhance your strength. Is that clear?"
"Alright," Morning Star looked up at Su Yu, his eyes gleaming with determination.
As they chatted, their flying vessel continued to drift aimlessly through the sky.
Su Yu hadn't set a destination, so the vessel could only fly outward from Hamines City, eventually flying out of the city limits and heading toward another city.
After discussing their gains and the starry stone, Su Yu and Morning Star gradually focused on the matter at hand.
There was still much to do, the various factions had their own priorities to address.
In the center of the vessel’s lawn, the cat Morning Star lifted its head to look at Su Yu. "Kai, what’s next?"
"This..." Su Yu stood up straight, looking out the window of "We should analyze the current situation more clearly," Su Yu organized his thoughts as he spoke.
"Alright." The cat Morning Star straightened its body, looking attentive.
"First," Su Yu analyzed, "we need to settle this commotion, or the military and the council will not overlook it, right?"
"They should be in charge." The cat Morning Star tilted its head, showing agreement. "Five of the eighth-rank cultivators are military personnel, and the military has no reason to overlook it, and they might even send someone after you!"
"Um, if the council or the military really sends someone over, then they will send what level of experts?" Morning Star guessed.
"About... let’s have a planetary expert come in person!" Morning Star speculated.
Before the council or the military sends someone, they will first find out what has happened here.
Learning of this, Su Yu instantly knew 4 eighth-rank peak cultivators, and there would definitely be no more eighth-rank cultivators sent to deal with this.
Morning Star could confirm that the council or the military would at least send one planetary expert to handle this matter.
"Um, since a planetary expert is coming in person, then we need to do a few things. Blue Whale!"
"I will, Administrator Su Yu."
"The first thing we need to do is quickly modify and submit the blue star coordinates. Blue Whale, can you do that?"
The military database had the blue star’s coordinates.
Su Yu had just arrived at the Feige Hub and still didn’t understand the situation, providing all the information about the blue star, especially the coordinates, to the Feige military.
It seemed that providing the information was a critical decision!
Su Yu arrived at the Feige Hub a few hours ago.
Within just a few hours, he had already encountered three military personnel and killed or injured as many as seven! Such a military was not trustworthy, so the blue star’s location must be corrected! We can’t let the Feige military have a chance to find our home planet.
"I can certainly do that," AI Blue Whale responded.
In the next second, he added, "Administrator Su Yu, the coordinates have been modified. Now the blue star’s location has been changed to a planet 1100 light-years away from an uninhabited planet. Do you have any other instructions?"
