Chapter 7: The Secret of the Sun

"It seems that doing scientific research is my fate, and I can't escape it even if I cross it."

Wei Qingyang sighed and threw himself into work.

Regarding the problem of insufficient spiritual materials, Wei Qingyang planned to arrange a spirit gathering array to slowly nourish the original inferior quality materials and let it slowly improve its quality to solve it.

It's troublesome, but it can't be helped.

"Then build a palace."

It doesn't feel good to spend hundreds of years on this asteroid, and every day you see a desolate silence, a mess of rocks and craters. Especially for Wei Qingyang, who was accustomed to a comfortable residence in his previous life.

So a palace made of solid hydrogen, oxygen, water ice, methane ice, iron, carbon dioxide, rock, etc., rose from the ground a few days later.

In this "palace", Wei Qingyang arranged a simple spirit gathering array, which could gather the power of the stars in the rest of the asteroid and forcibly infuse them into those low-quality materials, forcibly increasing their quality.

According to his calculations, in about a year, enough spiritual material to build a telescope and its auxiliary instruments could be produced.

At the same time, this "palace" will also be Wei Qingyang's residence for hundreds of years to come.

After all, he is the strongest person in the solar system, and he must have a place to live, and he can't lose his share.

Looking at this gray and autumn-like palace with the style of ancient primitive stone houses, Wei Qingyang's heart was full of relief.

This so-called palace has only one floor, only one roof, with a spire, about four or five meters high, and an area of about 100 square meters.

It was built on a piece of flat land specially leveled by Wei Qingyang, with a 100-meter-deep ravine behind it and a "mountain peak" in front.

If the mountain is a green mountain, there is water flowing in the ravine, and then catch some rare birds and beasts, exotic flowers and plants here, it can barely be regarded as a pleasant scenery, now, that's it.

There was no way, most of the power of the stars was consumed by the thruster formation, and there were really no materials to take advantage of here, so being able to make this was enough to make him proud.

The matter of spiritual materials is in a hurry, you have to take your time, and during this time, Wei Qingyang just came to solve the second problem.

If you want to fix the telescope "formation", it is not possible to use wind control to create sand and then fire glass with fire control as before, because this set of spells cannot work on its own. If you control it yourself, you have to separate your divine consciousness to maintain their existence at all times, which is extremely troublesome.

The only solution is to use spells or dao spells directly, directly use them to realize the function of the telescope lens, and then "fix" it on the spiritual material and combine it with the rest of the spells to form a formation.

However, in Wei Qingyang's memory, not only himself, but also the entire cultivation world did not have such a spell.

After all, no one expects to use a spell to create a lens and then gather the sunlight to burn someone to death.

Well?

Gather the sun and burn others?

Wei Qingyang suddenly perked up.

He remembered that the Flame Demon Sect, one of the twelve major sects of the solar system, had a spell called the Burning Sun Jue, which seemed to use the power of the sun to kill and injure the enemy.

Because this spell consumes less of itself and is more powerful, although it can only be used during the day when the sun is good, it is still regarded as an untold secret by the Flame Demon Sect. At the beginning, the disciples of the Flame Demon Sect relied on this spell, but they were out of the limelight.

Wei Qingyang didn't know the specific details of this spell, but if he removed some irrelevant interference factors and only looked at the origin, it must have taken some kind of method to bend the sun's rays and gather a large area of sunlight to a point before it was lethal.

As for whether the spell is bent by the lens or by other means, it doesn't matter, it just serves the same purpose.

"Alas, I knew this earlier, I destroyed the Flame Demon Sect at the beginning, destroyed their mountain gate, killed all their disciples, and snatched all the classics in my hands."

Now Wei Qingyang regretted it slightly. But thinking that Wei Qingyang before was not his soul, he shook his head helplessly.

Without the specific details of the spell, you can only rely on your own speculation to restore.

The original Wei Qingyang and the Flame Demon Sect Sect Master still fought each other. At the beginning, his Qingyang Sect's Mountain Protection Array, although it was broken by the Heaven Breaking Sword Sect's Sky Breaking Sword, but the Flame Demon Sect Master's Sun Technique also played a great role.

Carefully thinking back to the scene he saw when the Flame Demon Sect Sect Master used the Burning Sun Technique, the flow laws of the power of the stars, all kinds of breaths, and all kinds of techniques, Wei Qingyang slowly fell into deep thought.

As the strongest person in the solar system, Wei Qingyang's comprehension is also top-notch. Although there is no way to completely restore a spell by relying on one's own speculation, it is still possible to restore it after a long period of thinking.

Half a month later, Wei Qingyang realized that the method adopted by Lieyang Jue to bend the light was probably not lenses, but water.

It's nothing complicated, ice is also transparent and can bend light, everyone knows. However, the difficulty lies in how to improve its purity, how to make it have the highest precision and efficiency as much as possible, and at the same time have the largest area, affect a larger range, and have a higher curvature, so that the area where sunlight gathers is smaller, and improve the lethality per unit area, these are the real technologies of the Burning Sun Jue.

Wei Qingyang stretched out his hand, and with a slight move, a piece of water ice flew from afar, quietly suspended in front of Wei Qingyang.

As soon as his heart moved, he used the fire control technique to completely burn this piece of water ice with a temperature of minus 270 degrees Celsius.

Because the environment is vacuum, the water vapor will be dispersed in an instant. But at this time, Wei Qingyang instantly used the net of heaven and earth, and immediately, all the water vapor was condensed within a small range, and finally turned into liquid water.

It is not transparent and its color is gray because it is doped with too many impurities inside.

As soon as Wei Qingyang's heart moved, most of the impurities flew out, and the water immediately became pure. Even with Wei Qingyang's eyesight, he couldn't see where there was any turbidity in it.

This is the limit of Wei Qingyang's ability. The water is now even cleaner than the bottled purified water of the previous life, but that is still not enough. There are still too many undetectable impurities in it, which affect the light transmittance and refractive index of these waters.

You have to think of other ways to improve purity. This is also the reason why Wei Qingyang repeatedly calculates the Burning Sun Formula.

To be sure, there must be a method in the Burning Sun Formula.

Carefully recalling the Blazing Sun Recipe he had seen at the beginning, Wei Qingyang's heart suddenly moved.

He thought of a detail.

When the Burning Sun Jue was first used, its condensation was not high, and in the process, there seemed to be water vapor generated.

"Could it be...... Distillation? ”

Wei Qingyang immediately began to try. After a while, Wei Qingyang looked at the water in his hand that had increased in purity by several levels, and nodded with satisfaction.

The next thing to overcome is the problem of accuracy and area, as well as curvature.

A month later, all the problems were overcome by Wei Qingyang. He believed that although his current speculative version of the Burning Sun Recipe might be different from the Flame Demon Sect's genuine Burning Sun Recipe in terms of details and implementation principles, it could at least reach the same level in power and efficiency.

After solving the problem of lenses, Wei Qingyang began to overcome the rest of the technical problems. When all the technical problems were overcome, Wei Qingyang ushered in the final test.

How to unify these formations that achieve many different functions, so that they can work together as a whole to achieve their ultimate requirements. At the same time, its consumption of the power of the stars must also be reduced to a minimum for its own divine consciousness.

This requires continuous research and improvement, and constant iteration.

The spells that make up this telescope include a dozen spells and formations, such as the Sun Technique, the Fire Control Technique, the Heavenly Prison Net, the Spirit Gathering Array, the Ice Technique, and so on. It is not easy to integrate them organically and achieve maximum efficiency and functionality.

Wei Qingyang iterated for thirty-seven editions before he barely met his requirements. But even then, it's not fully automatic.

Wei Qingyang must distinguish a certain amount of divine consciousness and control it to orbit around this asteroid in space, and at the same time, the operation process must be stable without the slightest error. Otherwise, it won't be able to shoot anything. At the same time, some internal components were operating, and Wei Qingyang did not find a good solution, so he could only rely on his divine sense and directly intervene when he needed to adjust.

There was one last thing left, and that was to wait for the Spirit Gathering Array to complete its work of boosting those low-quality spiritual materials.

It took Wei Qingyang more than eight months to develop the telescope, and there are still more than 100 days left before all the materials are lifted and formed. There was no way, Wei Qingyang had to start a boring wait.

The lack of spiritual materials severely limited Wei Qingyang's actions.

In addition to this telescope, Wei Qingyang wants to do many other things. But no matter what, limited by the lack of spiritual materials, which are commonly known as heavenly and earthly treasures, nothing can be done.

During this time, the asteroid's speed has increased from a few kilometers per second to about 20 kilometers per second. The total voyage covered more than 300 million kilometers.

After all the spiritual materials for the construction of this telescope were formed, Wei Qingyang immediately launched the telescope "formation" into space, and used his divine sense to control it and start working.

It will begin its own sky survey at a rate of 50 kilometers from the asteroid in an orbit that orbits every 30 minutes. In addition to providing positioning, it also took on the responsibility of finding the remaining asteroids that were relatively close.

Seventeen days after it started working, Wei Qingyang made a gratifying discovery.

He found another asteroid.
