Miracle Farmer with Special Abilities-Chapter 551 - 0: Activating the Sun in My Eyes_1
Zhang Bin's face filled with excitement as he curiously asked, "Duo Duo, how proficient are you at detecting and mining gold?"
"Master, I can detect gold mines up to thirty kilometers deep," Duo Duo said. "My mining capacity is relatively weak; I can extract a maximum of 1,000 kilograms per day. My method is to drill into the ground, devour the soil, and separate out the gold. My stomach is quite special; it contains a large space that can store up to 10,000 kilograms of gold. However, Master, I must tell you some bad news. This planet of yours has already been mined, and almost no gold remains. Within the thirty-kilometer depth I've scanned, there are no gold mines, only traces of previous mining."
"What? Mined? Almost no gold left?" Zhang Bin's eyes widened, his face a mask of disbelief.
"Yes, Master. This planet is certainly very old; my preliminary scan indicates it has a history of over four billion years. Having formed over such a long period at an ideal distance from its sun, with a suitable temperature, it naturally allowed many intelligent civilizations to evolve. Since gold is the best energy source, isn't it normal that it would have been mined to exhaustion?" Duo Duo explained.
"Ugh..." Zhang Bin rubbed his forehead, a headache coming on. He had a feeling Duo Duo was right; Earth had indeed been home to many intelligent civilizations in its past. One of them was a golden civilization that used gold as energy and had even built a City of Gold. The gold in most parts of the world had likely been mined out completely.
Worse still, a dreadful premonition took root in his heart. Given how advanced that golden civilization was, it's unlikely they only mined on Earth. They probably went to the Moon and Mars, too. There might not be much gold left on the Moon or Mars, either. I just hope they didn't mine them completely dry and left a little for me. Otherwise, I'll be short on this energy source, and the Teleportation Arrays won't even start up. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦
Fortunately, the few ordinary Teleportation Arrays he had could be activated with Compressed Energy Blocks. Otherwise, Zhang Bin's headache would be even worse.
"No matter. In the future, I'll take you to other planets to mine for gold," Zhang Bin declared. His golden dream shattered just as quickly as it had formed, and he had no choice but to put Duo Duo away in his Space Ring. Such a miraculous robot couldn't be seen by just anyone; Cultivators would be able to tell that Duo Duo wasn't human, as it showed no signs of life.
He began setting up the Teleportation Arrays. First, he placed one Teleportation Formation Plate in a secret room in his villa and another Array Plate in the cave in Lingyao Valley. Then, he piloted the Flying Saucer to Dawang Mountain Villa in Yanjing and set up a third Teleportation Formation Plate in its underground secret room.
Next, he set up a Defensive Formation Plate in a suitable location on Mount Dawang. He didn't make the formation's range too large, just enough to cover the mountain. This ensured that Dawang Mountain Villa was secure.
Zhang Bin also made an impromptu decision to change the company's address. He decided against the building that Ma Rufei and the others had previously chosen. Instead, he bought all the land and buildings at the foot of Mount Dawang, selecting one of the towers to be the new headquarters for the King of Gamblers Entertainment Co., Ltd. This way, the company would be located within the formation's protective range, making it exceptionally safe.
Of course, this venture cost a considerable fortune, using up all his US Dollars. He also owed many favors, as Zhao Dawei had helped immensely, and Chief Number Three had given his special approval. Without them, no amount of money could have secured a mountain in Yanjing, along with such a vast expanse of land and buildings at its base. Countless companies and residents had to be relocated, which was no easy feat. It was a task utterly impossible for anyone without tremendous influence and connections.
He personally taught Mi Yiyao and the Twelve Golden Flowers how to operate the Array Plate. He also taught them, along with Chen Chaoyue, Ma Rufei, and Zhang Haijun, how to use the Teleportation Array.
They were all utterly shocked, left dumbfounded for who knew how long. The Teleportation Array, in particular, was profoundly stunning. The method was simply magical; in a single instant, they could travel to Sanchahe Village or return to Yanjing in the blink of an eye. It was countless times faster and more convenient than any airplane.
Zhang Bin was very satisfied. An ordinary Teleportation Array didn't consume much energy, so he didn't have to worry about running out. He just needed to compress gasoline and coal into Compressed Energy Blocks. Even the energy from gold could be converted into these blocks.
With all these arrangements made, Zhang Bin returned to Sanchahe Village, his mind at ease.
At dawn, a thick mist shrouded the land.
Zhang Bin sat cross-legged on a peak of Great Green Mountain, facing east as he diligently cultivated the Pure Heart Mystique. A strange aura emanated from his body, as if he were merging into one with heaven and earth.
Gradually, the eastern sky began to brighten, and a red sun slowly burst forth, shooting out millions of golden rays of light.
Zhang Bin's eyes snapped open, but he kept them narrowed to mere slits as he gazed at the sun on the horizon.
The Sun in the eye... The annotation from the Tao Te Ching surfaced in his mind. Tutu even conjured a diagram of pinhole imaging on the virtual screen in his mind, displaying a mirror image of the sun to aid Zhang Bin's comprehension.
Zhang Bin's eyes gradually widened, allowing more sunlight to stream in. An image of the sun appeared within them. His consciousness followed the rays of light deep into his eyes. He had never examined his own eyes in such detail before; this was the first time.
The space inside wasn't very large. Logically, the examination should have been over in an instant, and indeed it was. His initial scan was completed in a moment, revealing nothing out of the ordinary.
The Sun in the eye? What does that really mean? And how did those Cultivators who mastered Aurora Kill even cultivate it? A look of deep perplexity crossed Zhang Bin's face.
He continued to observe meticulously, unwilling to give up, and searched again.
Finally, he discovered an anomaly. Deep within his eye was a faint, minuscule dot located at the precise center—the very core—of the sun's projected image. No matter how he shifted his gaze, the dot moved accordingly, always remaining at the center of the image.
At first glance, the dot seemed unremarkable. Upon closer inspection, however, he could see that it was slowly devouring the sunlight. The process was so slow it was nearly imperceptible. Perhaps from having consumed sunlight before, the tiny dot now emitted a faint golden glow of its own.
Heavens, this is the sun of the human body—my sun! Only by discovering and activating this sun can my Qingmu Longevity Technique be considered to have truly reached a higher level! Zhang Bin cried out excitedly in his heart. At that moment, passages of the Qingmu Longevity Technique that he had never understood before suddenly became crystal clear...
