Chapter 125 - Rebuilding(2)

"I've already decided that the way it was before made it to much of an easy target and making it fly while camouflaged wouldn't work and it being underground also wouldn't work so I'm stuck on what to do on that front." nick said with furrowed eyebrows. the two women and jakob all thought deeply about this problem and lo mia asked a question that would lead to a discovery of earth shattering proportions. "what was wrong with the flying idea?" she asked confused. nick sighed "while i could make it float in order for the formations to work it would need to be stationary so the most logical disguise a cloud would be too suspicious since clouds naturally move and this one wouldn't be." he said seriously. hearing this jakob couldn't help but be confused "why cant the formations move?" he asked curiously. "formations draw energy from the surroundings in order to maintain their intended effect so if they are moving the energy is unstable leading to instability in the formations causing them to fail which is usually by them just shutting down but could also be them exploding." nick said seriously.

jakobs eyebrows furrowed as something didn't seem right to him but he couldn't quite figure out what. thankfully jakob was spared from his thoughts when the goddess spoke up. "why don't you just give them a stable energy source built into the formation?" she asked curiously. it was like a bomb went off and cleared the clouds away in nicks mind. 'of course! if the formations had a steady energy source the higgs energy disruption rule wouldn't apply allowing the formations to remain mobile without issue , however what could be used as the energy source since formation require massive amounts of energy.' nick thought to himself. "i have it!" nick said after a moment before pulling out forging equipment without explaining any thing and began shaping some sort of cube out of a grey material that jakob identified as krakter ore a seemingly useless material notorious for drawing energy into itself indiscriminately while being to brittle for weapons and armor. "genius!" jakob exclaimed once he figured out what nick was doing. the two women looked at jakob excitedly. "do you know what he's doing?" lo mia asked highly interested. jakob nodded "he is going to treat the formation like a living body."

lo mia was surprised since she had never heard of anyone thinking about formations in such a manner. "if that's true what's that odd cube hes making?" the goddess asked confused. jakob looked at the goddess "what do cultivators use to draw in store and use energy with?" he asked with a huge grin. 'what do they use? their dantians of course.....!' the goddess was astonished when the answer hit her so she couldn't help saying what nick was making out loud. "artificial dantian!"she exclaimed in amazement. jakob nodded while looking at his friend working without care for his surroundings with pride in his eyes. nick finished the artificial dantian prototype fifteen minutes later and the sound of a sort of humming resounded upon the final stroke of nicks blade all around the world drawing the attention of everyone who was astounded. very few cultivators had ever heard that sound but they all knew what it was the sound of the heavens themselves congratulating someone for being the first to do something truly great.
