Chapter 1775 Proof Flight

When the black obsidian flying boat hovered over the courtyard of Liu Hai Hutong, the ordinary people in the courtyard did not notice it, but practitioners such as Chen Nanfeng had already discovered the whereabouts of the flying boat, and they all came to the courtyard to look up.

Xia Ruofei and others jumped off the flying boat.

Xia Ruofei didn't put away the flying boat either, and just let the flying boat hover over the courtyard.

Chen Nanfeng came forward with a smile and said, "Fellow Daoist Xia, thank you for your hard work on this trip across the ocean!"

Xia Ruofei smiled and said: "Master Chen is serious, it's just running errands, it's not a troublesome thing!"

"It's not convenient to communicate many things over the phone, and Xuan'er didn't explain clearly." Chen Nanfeng asked, "I wonder if your trip went well, Fellow Daoist Xia?"

"Fortunately!" Xia Ruofei said with a smile, "Some of the equipment we need has been completed, but the production and assembly takes time, so we have to wait for more than half a month before we can get some equipment. In addition... …In addition to the extravehicular spacesuit and the oxygen supply module, there are unexpected surprises this time.”

"Oh? Little brother Xia, don't be fooled. Tell me, what kind of surprise is it?" Mu Sheng couldn't help but said.

Xia Ruofei smiled slightly and said, "Let Brother Chen tell everyone!"

"Xuan'er! Tell me!" Chen Nanfeng looked at Chen Xuan and said.

"Yes! Father!" Chen Xuan said respectfully, "Thanks to Brother Xia this time! Now he has saved the life of that American. This guy was not willing to cooperate at first, but fortunately Brother Xia found a breakthrough , let him not only willingly produce spacesuits and oxygen supply modules for us, but also provide us with a spaceship that can sail in space for free!"

"Spaceship?" Chen Nanfeng narrowed his eyes slightly, and asked, "Are there also flying boats in the secular world?"

"It's different from the flying boat!" Chen Xuan said, "This is specially designed for use in space. The materials of the spacecraft can ensure long-term operation in the space environment, and can also produce oxygen, and the airtightness is also very good. Staying inside is almost the same as being on the ground..."

"Of course, it is impossible to fully meet the conditions on the ground." Xia Ruofei added with a smile, "At least the problem of weightlessness cannot be solved with the current level of human technology. In addition, the space of the spacecraft is relatively small, and it is still relatively hard for a long-term voyage. .”

Chen Xuan said with a smile: "For ordinary people, it is like this, but for cultivators, it is not hard work at all. It is basically the same as living on the ground. So, Brother Xia helped us this time. Very busy!"

Chen Nanfeng was overjoyed when he heard the words, and said, "I didn't expect that! The technological means in the secular world are so effective! This is really thanks to Fellow Daoist Xia!"

Xia Ruofei said with a smile: "You two are serious,

I want to join this expedition too! Of course, I want to try my best to have better conditions, and this is also helping myself! "

Liu Mansha on the side said: "So, the obstacles for us to go to the moon are gone?"

Xia Ruofei said sternly: "Master Liu, I don't dare to guarantee it now. After all, everything in space is unknown, and no one in the cultivation world has ever wandered in space for a long time. We don't have any experience to learn from, and I feel that even if we find The crater on the moon may still have many tests waiting for us, so we still can’t take it lightly.”

Xia Ruofei paused for a while, and continued: "So this time, for the sake of safety, I brought the spaceship back in advance, and there are several sets of extravehicular spacesuits. We are going to take the spaceship to low-Earth orbit to test it first. Even if it is Let's do a proof flight!"

Liu Mansha's eyes lit up, and she said, "This is a good idea! Indeed, space is an unknown territory for us, and it would be too risky to launch a long-distance voyage rashly!"

Chen Nanfeng stroked his beard and smiled, "Fellow Daoist Xia is thoughtful! You really deserve to be a young hero!"

"You are ridiculous..." Xia Ruofei said, "I think so. There are only five sets of extravehicular spacesuits in total, but we have nine people who are going to explore the moon, so we can only do it in batches. In addition, several A senior who does not go to the moon..."

"We won't join in the fun!" Mu Sheng said cheerfully.

Chen Nanfeng also nodded and said, "Yes! Fellow Daoist Xia, I think this verification flight will be arranged by you!"

Xia Ruofei nodded and said: "That's what I initially planned. If I want to control the Black Obsidian Flying Boat, I must participate every time. This will remove a quota. In addition, the main reason is to consider separating the Golden Core Daoists Let’s make arrangements to ensure that there are at least two Golden Core cultivators for each verification flight, so that in case of any unexpected situation, the safety of Daoists during the Qi refining period can be ensured to the greatest extent.”

"It makes sense!" Chen Nanfeng said in agreement, "I think this arrangement is more appropriate!"

Xia Ruofei said: "In this case, then I will arrange it like this! This verification flight time will not be too long. After all, although the oxygen supply module has a relatively large margin, no one knows what will happen to us after we reach the moon. I don’t know how long I need to stay, so try not to consume too many oxygen supply modules in the early stage.”

He glanced at everyone, and continued: "The verification flight is mainly divided into two batches. The first batch is composed of me, Ling Qingxue, Brother Chen, Elder Yangliu, and Miss Xin'er; I still want to participate in the second batch, and Mu Elder Hua, Brother Jianfei, Elder Shen Tianfang from Tianyi Sect, and Miss Yurou, do you have any opinions on this grouping?"

Xia Ruofei's grouping has fully considered the situation of each sect.

For example, Yang Liu and Yu Xin'er are both from Feihua Valley. If they are arranged in the same group, they will have a care for each other, and they will trust each other more. The same is true for Mu Hua and Mu Jianfei of Canglangmen. As for the Tianyi Sect, there were two Jindan stage monks selected. Considering that there are only five places in the group, Chen Xuan can only be singled out. Shen Tianfang and Xu Yurou are arranged in the same group, which can also play a supporting role. As for Chen Xuan, with his cultivation base, he would naturally not have any worries in the first batch alone, at least there is no problem with self-protection.

Chen Nanfeng, Mu Sheng, and Liu Mansha all nodded with a smile, and Chen Nanfeng said: "Fellow Daoist Xia arranged it very well, let's group them according to this!"

Xia Ruofei smiled and said: "In this case, everyone should first learn some operating procedures of the spacecraft and the precautions for using the space suit outside the cabin, etc. Of course, during the actual operation, everyone can also have a good experience. About the cabin To operate the outer spacesuit, we can do a few simple exercises on the ground first."

After finishing speaking, he took out the extravehicular spacesuit and the box of manuals, and Chen Xuan and the others also took out the extravehicular spacesuits they had put away.

The members of the expedition team separated these materials, read some of them one by one, and then read them in turn.

Xia Ruofei and the others had already learned some in advance on the road, so they just started to read from the back, while Mu Hua, Mu Jianfei and others who stayed in the capital to wait for the news started to learn from the beginning.

We are all practitioners, and it is quick to learn some things seriously, not to mention that these are some operational tips, basically you only need to memorize them and practice a little bit in actual operation.

Soon everyone practiced putting on and taking off the extravehicular spacesuit several times. This kind of extravehicular spacesuit is very bulky and usually needs the assistance of others to put it on or take it off. However, everyone has mental strength. Although some People's mental strength is very average, but simple object control skills are still no problem, so after a little practice, basically they don't need help from others, and they can put on and take off spacesuits more proficiently.

Ordinary people wearing such extravehicular spacesuits on the ground are basically unable to move, because they are too bulky.

Therefore, when astronauts carry out relevant training programs, they are generally carried out in specially built pools, using the buoyancy of water to offset gravity and simulate the weightlessness environment during orbital operation.

And Xia Ruofei and others are all practitioners, so it is not difficult to move, but they still feel a little difficult to move.

For this reason, Shen Tianfang, Yang Liu and the others still had some doubts, worried that if they were dressed like this and went to the moon, there might be no time to react if there was any danger.

Xia Ruofei smiled and said: "The gravity on the moon is only one-sixth of that on the earth. Anyone on it is as light as a swallow, and when flying in space, there is almost no gravity at all, so the influence of the space suit is not the same. It's not as big as everyone imagined. And... this thing is life-saving. Without an extravehicular space suit, no one can survive for a long time in a low-temperature, vacuum environment. Daoists in the refining period may only last for a few minutes .”

Chen Nanfeng nodded and said, "The lesser of two evils, this is already the best solution I can think of at this stage!"

Xia Ruofei nodded with a smile and said: "I heard that monks in the Yuanshen stage can survive in the space environment, but they can only last for a day or two at most. As for us monks in the Jindan stage and Qi refining stage, we can't rely on technology. , don’t even think about going out of the earth!”

"It's incredible to be able to persist for a day or two!" Chen Nanfeng said with emotion, "The primordial spirit stage...it's too far away from us..."

Chen Nanfeng should be the one who is closest to breaking through the great realm among all the golden core stage monks in the cultivation world, but he only saw a glimmer of hope in the Nascent Soul stage. For the Yuanshen stage, he really did not dare to have any extravagant hopes. There is no hope of a breakthrough.

After all, the current environment in the cultivation world is really too bad. If in the past, with the qualifications of Chen Nanfeng and Chen Xuan, breaking through to the Yuanshen stage was usually a matter of course, but now it has become an unattainable state.

"Maybe there is a chance for a breakthrough in this trip to the moon!" Xia Ruofei said with a smile, "Don't be discouraged, Master Chen. You can still reach the current level of cultivation when the cultivation environment has deteriorated to such an extent. Yours Your talent is already extremely high, maybe you just need an opportunity, and you will be able to break through!"

"Then let me lend you a good word!" Chen Nanfeng said with a smile.

There is hope for him in the Nascent Soul stage, and he knows it very well, just like what Xia Ruofei said, his breakthrough is just an opportunity away, but the Nascent Soul stage... that is too far away.

Xia Ruofei saw that everyone had almost practiced, so he took back all the operation manuals, packed all the space suits into boxes, and said with a smile: "The first batch of fellow Taoists will come with me." Let's get on the airship! Let's make our first verification flight!"

Chen Xuan and the others nodded.

Song Wei showed a hint of worry, grabbed Xia Ruofei's hand, and said, "Ruofei, be careful! If you feel that the difficulty is too great, give up decisively, and don't take risks!"

Xia Ruofei nodded with a smile and said, "Don't worry! It's just going to low-Earth orbit, there won't be any danger."

He had gone up with Chen Nanfeng and others last time, and there was no protective measures at all that time, so he still had confidence in his heart.

Song Wei said: "You must take good care of Qingxue! If she makes any mistakes, I only ask you! Do you understand?"

Ling Qingxue took Song Wei's hand with a smile and said, "Wei Wei, don't worry! If Ruofei is here, nothing will happen! Besides, this is to verify the spaceship and spacesuit. We will go to the moon in a few days Woolen cloth!"

Song Wei nodded and said, "I'll be waiting for your good news at home!"

Over there, Chen Nanfeng and Liu Mansha were also giving some instructions to Chen Xuan and the others. After a while, Xia Ruofei, Ling Qingxue, Chen Xuan, Yang Liu, and Yu Xiner greeted everyone, and then jumped onto the black obsidian flying boat.

Everyone waved to everyone on the side of the ship, and then Xia Ruofei controlled the Obsidian flying boat and began to rise in height.

Soon, the spaceship reached an altitude of about 5,000 meters. In fact, the oxygen content is relatively low at this altitude. Under normal circumstances, ordinary people can breathe normally at altitudes below 3,000 meters. If the altitude is higher, the time will be longer. If it is eight or nine thousand meters high, without oxygen inhalation, it may only take a few tens of seconds for ordinary people to fall into a fainting state.

Of course, for practitioners, this height can still move freely.

Xia Ruofei first manipulated the spacecraft to hover at this altitude, and then said to everyone with a smile: "Everyone repair it first, and put on the extravehicular spacesuit at the same time, and then we will fly to low-Earth orbit in one breath."

For this extravehicular space suit, Xia Ruofei still provided basic data such as the height and body shape of nine people to Elon Musk, which is basically tailor-made, that is, two sets for each person.

However, the five sets delivered first are basically relatively large in size, so it will definitely not be particularly suitable for petite girls, but they are still usable.

On the deck of the Obsidian airship, everyone put on extravehicular spacesuits, and each of them turned into a bloated figure.

From this point on, everyone is breathing the oxygen provided by the oxygen supply module.

With a thought in Xia Ruofei's mind, the black obsidian flying boat began to accelerate again and flew directly out of the atmosphere.
