Transmigrated into a Grandpa, Embracing the Laid-Back Life

Chapter 402: Those Who Follow the Way of Survival Must Never Set Out Fatigued!

Su Ming rose from the stone chair. He carefully lifted the Profound Shadow Egg and placed it directly under the beam of light, at the formation core.

The silver beam precisely covered the eggshell.

A wondrous scene unfolded.

The dark-gold veins on the shell shone brilliantly under the starlight.

It was no longer the lifeless shell from before. The golden veins began to pulse rhythmically, inhaling and exhaling, as if a sleeping infant had finally drunk sweet milk.

Su Ming stared at the faintly glowing shell. A weary smile appeared on his face.

“With this, even if the disciple isn’t here, it can keep peacefully absorbing starlight.”

Lin Yu’s divine sense swept over the formation. He hummed in satisfaction.

“Not bad. The formation’s structure is very stable. The conversion rate of starlight is extremely high. And there’s no trace of spiritual energy leakage.”

Lin Yu evaluated briefly.“This formation, as long as the stars in the sky don’t fall, will hold for at least half a year. If you still haven’t returned after six months, we’ll come up with another plan.”

Su Ming nodded.

With his biggest worry resolved, he could finally prepare to descend the mountain with peace of mind.

He sat cross-legged on the stone bed, swallowed a Qi Recovery Pill, and began to replenish his expended spiritual energy.

A great battle was imminent, every ounce of strength needed to be kept at peak condition. Those who follow the Way of Survival must never set out while tired.

.......

Time flew.

Over the next three days,

Su Ming shut his door and did not leave.

He refined the last batches of ore slag delivered by the Repair Hall.

They became hundreds of water-refined core-steel needles.

He tempered these needles with the venom of Earth Fire Scorpions.

They were hidden in the wide sleeves of his purple robe, his belt, even the edges of his boots.

He also used the mutated spirit herbs cultivated in Clear Stream Valley to brew large amounts of antidote pills and powders that masked scent. He sorted everything into dozens of identical jade bottles.

Never put all your eggs in one basket.

That iron rule had been taught to him by Lin Yu.
