Upon returning to the dinosaur world through the portal, Chu Shi began searching the Dragon Country's arsenal for more suitable weapons. Among the selected weapons, close-range options primarily included energy guns, energy cannons, laser guns, and laser cannons, while long-range weapons featured missiles and the like.
At this moment, the drones Chu Shi had released had also reached the airspace above the mountain range where the Qingfeng Sect was located.
The first to spot the drones were disciples on a mountaintop within the Qingfeng Sect.
"Look, there's a big bird over there."
"It really is a big bird."
As the drones flew closer, they finally realized what these things were.
"That thing doesn't look like a bird!"
"Birds don't look like that. What is that thing?"
"This isn't a bird. You guys, its wings aren't flapping at all."
"This thing is flying in the sky. If it's not a bird, then what is it?"
"Why even ask? This must be a magical artifact."
"A magical artifact that can fly in the sky. I wonder which senior uncle or junior uncle's artifact it is."
These disciples didn't immediately consider the artifact to be an enemy. After all, within the Qingfeng Sect, they occasionally saw elders or the sect master using flying magical artifacts.
The drones continued to fly over the Qingfeng Sect, capturing images of the sect's surroundings.
The drones flying in the sky soon attracted the attention of the more powerful individuals within the Qingfeng Sect.
Within the Qingfeng Sect, there was only one cultivator at the Golden Core stage. All others were at the Foundation Establishment stage, including the Sect Master.
The Elder in charge of discipline looked up at the drones in the air, his expression showing displeasure, and said, "Who released an artifact to fly around erratically up here?"
At this moment, a disciple beside him said, "Elder, it's possible this artifact belongs to another elder. Disciples don't possess such artifacts."
Another disciple immediately chimed in, "No matter who it is, flying an artifact over the Qingfeng Sect is a violation of the rules. Elder, we should punish them!"
The Elder of Discipline also believed it to be the artifact of another elder. It was precisely because of this assumption that he didn't immediately issue a punishment for the person who released the artifact.
The Elder of Discipline calmly stated, "I have my own considerations. You may withdraw."
The disciples then retreated.
Once no one else was around, the Elder of Discipline muttered, "Hmm, it seems some disciples in the Discipline Hall lack proper discernment."
Following this, the Elder of Discipline took flight and moved to grab the drone.
At this moment, the drone flying above sensed a life form approaching and immediately accelerated, flying away.
The Elder of Discipline said, "Still trying to escape?"
The Elder of Discipline immediately accelerated, pursuing the drone.
The drone continued to fly, and the Elder of Discipline was surprisingly unable to catch up.
"Damn it? You're still trying to run?"
The enraged Elder of Discipline directly unleashed his artifact, which was an ordinary whip-shaped magical artifact. The Elder of Discipline favored using this whip to discipline the disciples of the Qingfeng Sect.
The artifact whip struck the drone, and the drone was directly shattered into pieces.
The Elder of Discipline of the Qingfeng Sect exclaimed in confusion, "This artifact is so fragile? How strange."
The Elder of Discipline descended to the ground and examined the fallen fragments of the drone, which were scattered in pieces.
"Truly a strange artifact. I didn't feel any spiritual energy from it. Is it just a mechanical bird?"
The Elder of Discipline then paid no further attention to the drone. After all, a powerful artifact wouldn't be so easily destroyed.

On the other side, Su Han's task was to shuttle back and forth between the dinosaur world and World 4, transporting supplies daily.
Even amidst such busy times, Chu Shi managed to find time within a day to translate "A Guide to the Cultivation World." It was precisely due to this translation that the translation department of the Otherworldly Development Division, following relevant translation rules, created a translation program that cross-referenced the text of World 4 with Dragon Country characters and loaded it into the translator.
The translated "A Guide to the Cultivation World" also provided Su Han with much information about the cultivation world in World 4.
Among these was information about cultivation levels in the cultivation world.
The cultivation levels in the cultivation world, from low to high, were: Qi Refining, Foundation Establishment, Golden Core, Nascent Soul, Soul Transformation, and Tribulation Transcension. The gap between each realm was immense. Ordinary people who wished to cultivate must possess spiritual roots. Spiritual roots are not possessed by everyone; the number of people with spiritual roots is very small.
In addition to the realms, there were also various accounts of the cultivation world. The book also introduced sects within the cultivation world, focusing only on those in the Southern Region.
There were several hundred sects in the Southern Region. The two most powerful were the White Crane Gate and the Crimson Cloud Palace. Both of these sects had several great cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage.
Although the Nascent Soul stage appeared to be only one realm higher than the Golden Core stage, the difference was already like heaven and earth. In the Southern Region, only sects with cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage were considered major sects. Sects with only Golden Core cultivators were all categorized as minor sects.
The Crimson Cloud Palace and the White Crane Gate had vast spheres of influence. Several countries surrounding these two sects had to pay tribute to them. As the most powerful sects in the Southern Region, they naturally brought all other sects in the Southern Region under their management. All sects within the Southern Region, except for those of the demonic path, joined under these two sects. Of course, these two sects were not aligned; instead, they independently formed the White Crane Alliance and the Crimson Cloud Alliance. The Clear Water Sect and the Qingfeng Sect both joined the White Crane Alliance, led by the White Crane Gate.
The White Crane Alliance had various prohibitions. One of these prohibitions was the prohibition of forcibly extorting tribute from ordinary people.
Besides these, "A Guide to the Cultivation World" also introduced much other knowledge about the cultivation world.
After reading "A Guide to the Cultivation World," Su Han understood why the Qingfeng Sect used methods akin to those of mountain bandits. It turned out to be due to this prohibition by the White Crane Alliance.
This "A Guide to the Cultivation World" was compiled by the Qingfeng Sect, so it also contained a fair amount of content boasting about the Qingfeng Sect. It specifically stated that the Qingfeng Sect's strength far surpassed that of the Clear Water Sect. However, Su Han naturally did not believe these descriptions of the Qingfeng Sect.
Regarding the black token brought back by He Guizang, the Dragon Country used various instruments to detect it. The instruments could only detect that the black token was a piece of jade with some energy within it.
He Guizang also attempted to use the method described in "A Guide to the Cultivation World" to place the black token on his forehead, but he was unable to retrieve any cultivation techniques.
This proved that spiritual energy was required to read the contents of the jade slip.
Thus, the Dragon Country continued to transport supplies daily.
