Walking out of the room, Wen Yan glanced over the other gear prepared for him, starting first with the High-Energy Compression Energy Blocks.
Rumor had it the main material for these was a peculiar creature, somewhere between plant and beast, called the Half Moon.
It wasn't exactly a new thing—in fact, it went extinct ages ago, only to be rediscovered in recent years.
Back when the Alchemy Dao started gaining traction, this was the main ingredient for refining so-called Fasting Pills.
Now, after some research by the Scorching Sun Department's subordinate team, they've managed basic artificial cultivation—but the yield is super low, and not as good as wild-grown ones in natural conditions.
Plus, cultivating them is a mess, with a bunch of problems. The single biggest hassle: the Half Moon has this stage where it decides whether to be a plant or an animal.
If it turns into a plant or an animal, neither can be used as a material anymore.
