These are the various metals fused into Quan Yi's body, and at the very least, they have undergone the four elemental thunder tribulations.
More importantly, they all possess the ultimate metallic properties, fully capable of withstanding the gravitational environment here.
A dazzling array of colorful liquid metals gradually replaced Quan Yi, covering the surface of the Diamond Earth Essence.
Soon, Quan Yi completed the replacement, piecing together metals of various materials and solidifying them into a thin film.
After finishing all this, Quan Yi tried opening this protective film of his to observe its sturdiness.
"Not bad, it looks perfectly fine!"
Quan Yi observed the surrounding vacuum of earth elements changing.
Those earth elements that hadn't been absorbed were滞留 (zhìliú - detained) on the surface of the colorful metal, and in the dark space, more and more yellowish-brown light spots gradually began to mix in.
The process of stabilizing the Diamond Earth Essence took longer than expected.
The gravity reduction from one hundred times to fifty times took almost more than an hour.
Moreover, the rate of decrease in multiples was slowing down, and the energy fluctuations within the Diamond Earth Essence were also tending towards calmness.
It seemed that even without being activated, the Diamond Earth Essence's own size and gravity were enormous.
"Even in a non-activated state, it has almost forty times the gravity.
The dangerousness of this thing is comparable to the Ice and Fire Spring.
Those whose bodies are not tough enough are not even allowed to approach, let alone utilize it."
The Flame Dragon King sincerely rejoiced that he was not standing in front of the Diamond Earth Essence in a physical state at this moment.
He found it hard to imagine what a miserable state his originally extremely heavy body would be in under a hundred times the gravity.
Before the Diamond Earth Essence completely calmed down, Quan Yi didn't idle either, but collected the various high-quality metals accumulated around.
"The quality of the metals here is ridiculously high. If my old turtle had such quality metals back then, I might have been able to try facing the thunder tribulation."
While Quan Yi was collecting the metals, the old turtle coveted all kinds of elemental metals in front of him.
His expression was as if he couldn't wait to lick these metals.
"This should also be the effect of the Diamond Earth Essence. The powerful gravity not only attracts more metals but also naturally tempers these metals with stronger pressure.
This is like the Ice and Fire Spring's enhancement to various immortal herbs. The environment around the Diamond Earth Essence is naturally beneficial to various metals."
Quan Yi's harvest in nearly a week was not as much as in this one day.
In addition to various elemental metals, there were also many non-elemental pure metals scattered here.
Iron Mother, Silver Mother, Rutilated Quartz
Every piece of metal here was in its purest and most condensed form. Not only were there no impurities inside the material itself, but its strength was also extraordinary.
Even in Douluo Continent, where blacksmiths are not valued, such metals are strategic materials snatched by all forces.
It doesn't even need highly skilled blacksmiths. With a little polishing, it can become a divine-level metal tool.
Of course, these pure metals are only the lowest level. The truly high-level ones are those mixed with various elemental attributes.
Here, even Crimson Demon Fine Gold, no, refined Crimson Demon Gold Essence and Diamond Gold Essence of this level are not few in number.
Especially the closer to the Diamond Earth Essence, the greater the level and strength of the metal.
Moreover, not only the types of metals but also the categories of attributes, there are very rich varieties contained here.
Not only for the old turtle, but in fact, for Quan Yi, a blacksmith, this is also a treasure land.
Everything here was formed relying on the Diamond Earth Essence. When Quan Yi takes away the core, the metals here will not disappear.
However, they may gradually disperse with the movement of the rock layers because, without the Diamond Earth Essence gathering and consolidating the rock layers, it is impossible to gather so many kinds of metals in a small area.
Earth produces metal. The theory of mutual generation in the five elements is also reflected in this place.
Quan Yi started from the inner circle, spreading outward layer by layer. In this process, he felt what it was like to have treasures until his hands were soft.
At the same time, Quan Yi's desire to take away the huge gemstone behind him reached its peak.
Because he deeply understood that as long as he buried it underground, he could continuously collect and condense high-quality metals.
Or, he could directly bury it in a specific metal ore vein. In this way, the Diamond Earth Essence could even act as an automatic refining machine.
Its role is far more than just providing Quan Yi with the ultimate earth attribute energy.
Two hours had passed since the earth element was blocked.
Quan Yi collected all the metals within a kilometer radius and also collected a lot of metals outside the range, until only the space to hold the Diamond Earth Essence was left in the storage space.
Since the Heart of Blazing Sun was expanded a hundred times, this was the first time Quan Yi felt that the space inside the Heart of Blazing Sun was too small.
Just as Quan Yi felt regret looking at the remaining metals around, he noticed that the state of the Diamond Earth Essence had completely fallen into a dormant state.
He directly returned in dragon form.
"It just stopped at forty times."
Quan Yi probed the internal situation through the metal. The earth attribute energy that originally emitted fluctuations seemed to have fallen into slumber.
It was as if the earthquake-stricken earth had returned to calm after its anger.
However, the calmed earth, although no longer in its full glory, was still difficult to resist.
"Is this the limit?
However, the range of tenfold gravity has also shrunk a lot.
As long as some metal is vacated, it should be able to fit in."
The Flame Dragon King noticed that the outwardly spreading gravitational fluctuations had converged inward a lot.
However, Quan Yi remained unmoved.
"What's wrong? The diameter has shrunk to less than fifty meters. Isn't that enough?
The metals aren't going anywhere anyway. We can just come back and get them later, right?"
The Flame Dragon King thought that Quan Yi was feeling sorry for these metals, which was why he hesitated.
"Haha, Senior Flame, you misunderstood.
It's not that I'm reluctant to part with the metals, but I think that maybe I can take it in without vacating any space."
Quan Yi's words stunned the Flame Dragon King.
"What have you thought of again in such a short time?"
The Flame Dragon King knew that Quan Yi had obviously come up with some idea.
Quan Yi didn't keep him in suspense. He stretched out his dragon claw and pressed it on the metal film.
He muttered in his heart: "Ultimate Wood!"
In an instant, Quan Yi's dragon claw emitted emerald green fluorescence, which flowed into the metal film along the dragon claw.
The ultimate wood soul power, rich in life force, flowed unhindered into these metals and carved out incomparably clear emerald green leaf vein patterns among the brilliant colors.
These patterns, like branches, quickly spread to the whole and converged into a network that completely enveloped the metal.
And miraculously, the gravity of the Diamond Earth Essence also rapidly decreased under Quan Yi's operation.
