"Senior Cangsong, do you mean that you plan to use this Outer Heaven Divine Stone to reforge a Xuanyuan Sword?" The middle-aged man at the head suddenly asked.

Cangsong Daoren shook his head with a smile and said, "It's almost impossible to recast a Xuanyuan sword, after all, we don't have the casting method of the Xuanyuan sword in our hands, and it's not much use just to have materials." ”

"Why can't it be built with modern metallurgical technology?" Ren Lao asked puzzled.

Cangsong Daoren laughed twice, and asked rhetorically, "Xiao Ren, do you know the biggest difference between the magic weapon in the cultivator's hand and the ordinary weapon?" ”

Ren Lao shook his head with a wry smile and said, "I don't know, please ask Senior Cangsong to explain a thing or two." ”

Cangsong Daoren smiled and nodded, explaining: "The magic weapon in the cultivator's hand uses the method of heart fire sacrifice and refining, while the ordinary weapon uses the casting and melting method. ”

"The magic weapon that is sacrificed by the Heart Fire Sacrifice Refining Method looks dead, but it is actually alive."

"As long as it is given enough time, it may even evolve into a spirit weapon, but the weapon smelted by the casting and melting method is a real dead thing."

"That's why even if a kitchen knife is sharp enough, it won't take long for it to rust, and even if you don't take care of it often, a magic weapon can stay alive for hundreds or even thousands of years."

Anyone in the conference room who had come into contact with the magic weapons, after listening to the explanation of the Cangsong Daoist, suddenly understood why those magic weapons buried in the ruins could remain bright even after hundreds or even thousands of years. And those bronze and iron tools are almost all corroded when they are dug up, and even the outer shell of the spaceship made of unknown materials will be very seriously corroded after thousands of years.

"Could it be that the predecessors plan to use these divine stones to create a strange type of artifact?" Zhang Daokun asked tentatively.

"Not really." Cangsong Daoren shook his head and said: "In ancient times, the only thing that could really be crowned with the title of an artifact was the Xuanyuan Sword, and the other so-called immortal weapons and artifacts were not imaginary, at most they were just some powerful magic weapons. ”

"If you want to forge an artifact, it is no less difficult than building a real spaceship, not to mention that the old man has no way to cast an artifact in his hands, even if he has the heart, he is powerless."

Hearing his answer, everyone in the conference room couldn't help but feel a sense of disappointment.

Wang Shouchang couldn't help frowning and asked, "Master, since this kind of Extraterrestrial Divine Stone can't create an artifact, what's the use?" ”

The implication is naturally that he still disagrees with S.H.I.E.L.D.'s next exploration of the other world.

Of course, the reason why he was so opposed was naturally because he was worried about his ancestor.

Cangsong Daoren stroked his white beard and asked, "Shouchang, in your opinion, is it the usefulness of an artifact to the country, or is it the usefulness of hundreds of old men like me, Brother Zhang, and Brother Xuanhai?" ”

Wang Shouchang hesitated for a moment, and said embarrassedly: "It must be that you are of great use, but from the perspective of deterrence alone, I think an artifact like the Xuanyuan Sword is more useful." ”

"Well, you're right, an artifact like the Xuanyuan Sword is more like a nuclear missile, and there aren't many opportunities to actually use it except for symbolism and deterrence." Cangsong Daoren nodded and said.

Wang Shouchang hurriedly smiled and said: "Master, you are also nuclear missiles to my country." ”

Hearing his words, the conference room burst into laughter.

Cangsong Daoren shook his head with a smile and said, "Compared with the Xuanyuan Sword Artifact, our old bones can only be regarded as conventional long-range missiles at most. ”

"Master, do you mean that this Outer Heaven Divine Stone can improve the cultivation of cultivators?" Wang Shouchang thought for a while and asked.

Cangsong Daoren nodded approvingly and said, "Yes, but more precisely, it should be able to improve the strength of cultivators." ”

Seeing the confusion in the other party's eyes, he continued to explain: "The strength of a cultivator is composed of two aspects, one is divine consciousness cultivation, and the other is magic weapons. ”

"Although we can't use this divine stone to create an artifact like the Xuanyuan Sword, we can use these divine stones to increase the power of the magic weapon."

"And for cultivators, most of the strength is actually reflected in the magic weapon, as long as the power of the magic weapon is increased, the strength of the cultivator will naturally be improved."

"Compared with the improvement of cultivation, the improvement of the power of magic weapons is also simpler."

Hearing him say this, the eyes of Zhang Daoshan and Xuanhai Daoren in the conference room suddenly lit up.

However, before the two of them could ask, Zhang Daokun was the first to speak: "Senior Cangsong, I don't know how many magic weapons can be enhanced by such a divine stone?" ”

Cangsong Daoist picked up the golden divine stone in his hand, pointed at it and said to everyone: "This varies from magic weapon to spell, if it is just an ordinary magic weapon, I am afraid that only one-tenth of a divine stone can raise its grade by several steps, but if it is the Heavenly Thunder Sword on your grandfather's back, such a divine stone is estimated to only increase its power by about one to two percent at most." ”

When Cangsong Daoren mentioned the long sword behind Zhang Daoshan, everyone in the conference room looked at the Heavenly Thunder Sword on Zhang Daoshan's back almost in unison.

At this time, the expression on Zhang Daoshan's face was obviously a little stunned, and when he reacted, the eyes that looked at the golden divine stone in Cangsong Daoren's hand became more and more eager.

The power of the Heavenly Thunder Sword may not be clear to others, but he himself knows best, a single divine stone can increase the power of one to two percent, which makes him a little unbelievable!

But what kind of person is Cangsong Daoren, that is the Xiuzhen seniors who debuted more than a hundred years earlier than him, although they are called brothers, but in his mind, the other party is more like his elders.

With the other party's knowledge, he believed that he should be very sure to say such a thing, he opened his mouth, and couldn't help but say excitedly: "Brother, that ······ Divine Stone ······ That one. ”

He couldn't wait to ask for a divine stone at the moment, but begging in front of so many people really made him a little speechless.

"Haha, Brother Zhang, don't worry, when the meeting is over, I will send you and Brother Xuanhai together." Cangsong Daoren said with relief.

"Thank you, brother!" "Brother Cangsong is righteous." Zhang Daoshan and Xuanhai Daoren said almost in unison, the expression on their faces was surprised and happy.

"Senior Cangsong, you said that you have more than ten pieces of this kind of divine stone in your hand before, right?" Ren Lao couldn't help but ask.

Cangsong Daoren couldn't help but be stunned, he naturally knew what the other party's purpose was for asking, but since the words had been spoken, he naturally wouldn't lie in front of everyone, so he could only nod and admit with a smile: "That's true." ”

Ren Lao rubbed his hands, and asked with a blushing face: "Senior Cangsong, can you also give me a piece of this divine stone?" ”

Cangsong Daoren hurriedly shook his head and said, "Xiao Ren, it's not that I won't give it to you, but it's useless for you to take this thing." ”

"No, no, no." Ren Lao hurriedly waved his hand and explained: "Senior Cangsong, you misunderstood, I didn't want it for myself, but for Lao Wang of the Institute of Advanced Materials." ”

Cangsong Daoren didn't expect this little old man to be so cunning, and he actually directly raised Xiao Wang from the Institute of High-tech Materials, which made him refuse for a while.

After being silent for a moment, he nodded helplessly and said, "Yes, I will have someone send it directly to Xiao Wang after the meeting." ”

Ren Lao was suddenly depressed, this was not the result he wanted, he hurriedly said cheekily: "Senior Cangsong, that, in fact, our space-time research institute also wants to study this material to see if we can make an instrument to detect space-time ripple data." ”

Cangsong Daoren waved his hand and said, "Xiao Ren, don't fight this kind of divine stone idea." ”

"Your space-time research institute is a gold-swallowing beast, and I only have ten divine stones in my hand, not to mention that three have already been divided, even if all the rest is given to you, it will not be enough for you, this matter will be discussed later! If that other world is really full of these divine stones, it won't be in the way to give you a few pieces to study. ”

"One piece, just one piece, if it doesn't work, just give me Lao Wang's piece." Ren Lao stalked and stalked.

Cangsong Daoren really couldn't help this Ren Lao, and said helplessly: "Okay, okay, I really can't help you." ”

"Thank you, thank you, senior." Ren Lao said excitedly.

Seeing that Ren Lao actually dug up a divine stone from the hands of Cangsong Dao people, this made several other scientific giants couldn't help but feel a little excited, although they were not doing material research, but they also wanted to see if this kind of divine stone could be used in the field of life, genetics and even medicine.

Seeing the impatient eyes of these people, Cangsong Daoren hurriedly coughed lightly and asked first: "I don't know what everyone here thinks now, does anyone have a different opinion?" ”

The conference room fell silent for a moment, and after a while, the middle-aged man sitting on the main seat said in a calm tone: "Since everyone is not opposed, then this matter will be settled like this for the time being." ”

After a pause, he turned his head again and asked, "Senior Cangsong, I don't know when the next shuttle will be?" ”

Cangsong Daoren thought for a while and said, "Within two days, the specific time has not yet been decided. ”

"I don't know where that little white comrade is now?" The middle-aged man asked again.

Cangsong Daoren turned his head to look at Deputy Director Hu's position and asked, "Xiaohu, is Xiaobai staying in the base?" ”

Director Hu was so depressed, he smiled bitterly and said, "No, I gave him a ten-day vacation, and now he is on vacation in Hangzhou." ”

"Nonsense, call him immediately to urge him to come back." Cangsong Daoren frowned and said, then thought about it and said, "Forget it, I'll call him personally when the meeting is over." ”

Hearing Cangsong Daoren say this, Director Hu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

The meeting ended quickly, and after Cangsong Daoren, Zhang Daoren, and Xuanhai Daoren took the lead in walking out of the conference room, the others walked out of the glass compartment and left the base under the leadership of a special person.
