Why Would an Aircraft Carrier Be Dispatched to Escort His Fishing Boat?

183: Chapter 183 Spirit Fusion, Forging the Divine HairpinIn Taoism...

Qi is a mysterious energy.

It is hidden within the heaven, the earth, and the universe.

It has existed since ancient times.

It is omnipresent.

Any civilization capable of utilizing Qi is a high-level civilization.

The reason is simple.

Eighty percent of the universe’s mass comes from Qi, which is the spirit element.

A civilization that cannot use the spirit element is like a savage who cannot use fire; even if they master Controlled Nuclear Fusion, their combat power will still have a ceiling.

The logic is also very simple.

When interstellar war breaks out, a civilization that cannot use Qi can only use substances lighter than iron for nuclear fusion to generate energy.

However, substances lighter than iron account for less than twenty percent of the entire universe.

Once these substances are exhausted, it’s like an army’s elite forces being wiped out; if they don’t die outright, they are doomed to perish.

Civilizations that can use Qi are different; they can easily use the Qi element through Controlled Nuclear Fusion to generate a continuous stream of energy.

And Qi accounts for eighty percent of the universe.

One could say...

During World War II, the greater one’s control over oil, the higher their combat power.

In the interstellar era, the stronger one’s control over the Qi element, the stronger their combat power.

“So... the human body can also perform Controlled Nuclear Fusion.”

Jiang Chen digested the information transmitted by the system.

Among this vast amount of information was a discipline called Spirit Fusion.

It explained how to use the element of Qi for Controlled Nuclear Fusion.

The process of nuclear fusion was very similar to the magnetic confinement used by his colleagues in the Great Northwest!

There were only two differences.

One: it primarily used the Qi element.

Two: the fusion occurred within the human body.

The entire process was called Spirit Fusion.

Of course.

Spirit Fusion could also be generated in non-human bodies.

The process was almost identical to Controlled Nuclear Fusion.

“How strong must a human body be to withstand temperatures of hundreds of millions of degrees?”

Jiang Chen clicked his tongue in secret.

Although he now had thunder protection and could unleash immense energy...

That energy was far from enough to withstand temperatures of hundreds of millions of degrees.

Let alone a continuous stream of nuclear fusion.

If Spirit Fusion were to occur in his current body, he would likely be reduced to ashes instantly.

Jiang Chen shook his head.

He pulled his thoughts back.

To withstand Spirit Fusion, even an S-sequence biological organism probably wouldn’t be enough.

He put away the nine-leaf lingzhi grass.

Since this thing produced spirit elements...

He could take it back.

Let it continuously produce spirit elements.

Then, utilizing these spirit elements—whether to strengthen the human body or for nuclear fusion—would be of great use.

It could serve as an energy foundation for entering the universe in the future.

After all...

The most abundant substance in the universe was this dark matter known as Qi.

Jiang Chen set the nine-leaf lingzhi grass aside.

Then he continued fishing.

He wanted to see if there were any other nine-leaf lingzhi grasses.

Meanwhile, Commander Jiang Qiuzhi looked at the nine-leaf lingzhi grass with surprise.

This thing had first been born in her Jade Pool.

It had provided a massive amount of energy for the Jade Pool’s early power systems.

However!

During the Battle of the Milky Way’s Right Spiral Arm, this nine-leaf lingzhi grass had been hit by a terrifying shockwave and scattered into the void.

She had thought it was destroyed.

She hadn’t expected...

That after so much time...

It would actually return to its home planet on its own.

Although it had returned to its weakest state, Commander Jiang Qiuzhi was all too familiar with its aura.

“Baby, just wait a bit longer. Daddy will definitely fish up something you can play with.”

After circling around with no results, Jiang Chen immediately headed to the next mist zone.

This mist zone was only fifty li away.

He arrived in a few minutes.

Jiang Chen cast the fishing net again.

“I don’t believe there isn’t something good suitable for a child to play with.”

Jiang Chen muttered to himself.

The system soon gave a new prompt.

[Reminder to Host: You have fished up the divine hairpin.]

[The divine hairpin is a headpiece forged by the ancient blacksmith Kuafu using the terrifying energy of a black hole and a neutron star merging. It was once used by the Queen Mother of the West; she once used the hairpin to cleave out the Heavenly River, and the resulting massive shockwave separated Altair and Vega.]

[Currently, the divine hairpin has lost all its Qi energy. If it absorbs enough Qi elements again, it can regain its terrifying destructive power.]

Blacksmith?

Forged using the merger of a black hole and a neutron star?

After reading the description, Jiang Chen’s mouth twitched.

This is a damn blacksmith?

While Jiang Chen was swallowing hard, a series of academic knowledge and processes regarding the creation of the divine hairpin were also poured into his mind.

One segment mentioned that when the ancient giant Kuafu was forging the divine hairpin near a black hole and a neutron star, an ignorant star accidentally entered the forging area.

Kuafu was displeased, so he slapped it away.

That star was called the Sun.

And this!

Was the origin of Kuafu Chasing the Sun.

“Holy crap!”

“So Kuafu Chasing the Sun actually refers to expelling the sun, not chasing it?”

Jiang Chen was sweating profusely.

He had thought Kuafu was just very fast!

He didn’t realize it was because the power behind his slap to the sun’s face was so immense.

“Baby, come here. I found a good thing for you.”

Jiang Chen took out the divine hairpin.

The divine hairpin looked like a spider with its limbs spread out, about the size of a fruit plate.

Jiang Chen placed the divine hairpin on his daughter’s head.

Unfortunately...

Commander Jiang Qiuzhi hadn’t grown any hair yet.

Placing it on top of her head made it look like a pot lid; it was extremely comical.

Commander Jiang Qiuzhi also recognized it—wasn’t this the hairpin she had worn in her past life?

Only...

Back then, her hair had been very long and thick.

Later, during the great war, the divine hairpin had fallen off, and she hadn’t had time to look for it.

She hadn’t expected...

That just like the nine-leaf lingzhi grass, it had returned to the home planet.

Though it had also lost all its energy...

The familiar scent was still there.

“Daddy, how can you fish up so many strange things from the sea?”

Commander Jiang Qiuzhi couldn’t help but start sizing up Jiang Chen with curiosity.

Initially...

She had thought her father in this life was just an ordinary person.

She hadn’t expected...

That he could fish up the items from her past life one by one.

This was definitely a heavenly fate pulling the strings in the dark.

Jiang Chen looked up at his daughter with the divine hairpin on her head and smiled.

“Daddy is omnipotent; I can fish up even more miraculous things.”

“If you don’t believe me, I’ll keep fishing.”

As Jiang Chen spoke...

He steered the fishing boat to the next mist zone again.

This mist zone was even closer, less than twenty li away.

Jiang Chen cast the fishing net for the third time!

This time...

The thing he pulled up was somewhat heavy.

The small fishing boat even sank a bit.

Splash!

As the contents of the fishing net were pulled up...

Not only was Jiang Chen surprised, but even Commander Jiang Qiuzhi herself was stunned.
