Transmigrated into a Grandpa, Embracing the Laid-Back Life

Chapter 300: Starlight in the Garbage Heap

At night, in Stone House Number Seven, Sector C.

Su Ming sat cross-legged on the meditation cushion, the bronze fragment placed on the low table before him.

The restrictive formations within the stone house were fully activated, and he had even temporarily lowered the sensitivity of the "Earth Hearing" device to avoid interference.

"How do I do this?" Su Ming looked at the fragment that seemed as if it might crumble to dust at any moment, somewhat at a loss.

"Its current state is like a piece of paper half-burned by fire, it'll shatter at the slightest touch," Lin Yu floated opposite him. "Nurture it. Use your water spiritual energy, seep it inside, 'support' those formation lines that are about to collapse and scatter."

Lin Yu gestured with his hand. "It's like... like when you played with mud as a kid, if you wanted to knead a lump of mud that was about to dry and crack back together, you had to add water. But you couldn't add too much, and you couldn't rush it. You had to moisten it bit by bit."

Su Ming nodded thoughtfully.

He took a deep breath, adjusting his breathing.

Within his Dantian's Qihai, that pool of deep blue spiritual liquid began to slowly rotate.

Su Ming extended his right hand, index and middle fingers pressed together, hovering three inches above the fragment."Go."

A strand of water spiritual energy, ten times finer than a strand of hair, slowly descended from his fingertip.

It didn't directly touch the fragment, but instead swirled around it, forming an extremely thin layer of blue mist.

The moment the mist made contact with the fragment's surface, the previously dead, inert bronze material actually emitted an extremely faint, almost inaudible "hum."

It was the sound of a traveler parched for a thousand years encountering the first drop of sweet dew.

"Steady!" Lin Yu barked in a low voice. "Don't give it too much!"

A layer of fine sweat instantly beaded on Su Ming's forehead.

This was more exhausting than repairing formations on the battlefield.

He had to constantly sense the structural changes within the fragment. One iota too much spiritual energy, and the fragile internal balance of the fragment would be broken. One iota too little, and he couldn't stop the dissipation of its spiritual nature.

That strand of spiritual energy was like a silkworm spinning silk, bit by bit, extremely slowly, seeping into the fragment's interior.
