Su Chen looked at their eager expressions and didn't hide anything, saying,
"This is also quite simple, mainly focusing on the cloud layers. I know the weather here is extrely unpredictable, so I have been observing the clouds and the sea surface. Through the changes in the cloud layers, one can roughly make predictions."
Although Su Chen's explanation sounded simple, the knowledge it encompassed was quite profound. They had studied teorology and still hadn't grasped it.
"What did you want to use that balloon for?"
Guan Zhihui continued to ask; he had always been unclear about what Su Chen intended for the balloon.
"This is even simpler: the balloon is used to further confirm whether there is a storm, as observing the clouds is just a guess and can sotis be inaccurate."
Su Chen glanced at the few people and said,
"Due to the friction and impact between the peaks of the strong winds and huge waves, a type of low-frequency sound wave is generated. These sound waves travel faster than the wind and waves. Although human ears cannot directly hear them, a balloon filled with hydrogen can resonate due to these low sound waves, creating vibrations. The amplitude and strength of these vibrations put pressure on the eardrums of those close to the hydrogen balloon, causing a sensation of vibration. The closer the storm, the clearer this sensation."
"So that's how it works!"
Upon hearing his explanation, everyone suddenly had a mont of realization!

Once again, they held Su Chen in incredibly high regard. Not only was this young man formidable in his cultivation, but he also seed outstanding in other aspects!
However, what Su Chen didn't ntion was that because of his advanced cultivation realm, his sensory abilities were far stronger than those of ordinary people, which is why he was able to detect those nearly imperceptible vibrations so much earlier!
Even for Guan Zhihui, who was at the Ninth Layer of Qi Refinent, the earliest he could perceive them was half an hour beforehand!
When the storm passed parallel to them, although they were far enough from the storm's centre, they still felt the strong turbulence of the ship!
"Now we can have Guan Xin change the direction and continue moving straight ahead!"
As they were almost reaching Dalasen Island, Su Chen finally put his worries to rest and instructed.
After these events, everyone was completely convinced by Su Chen, sincerely admiring him from the bottom of their hearts!
.....
By the next day's early morning, Su Chen and his group finally arrived at that small island!
It was a small island of about thirty to forty square kiloters. From afar, the vegetation seed quite lush, covering roughly half its area.
After landing on the island, they temporarily didn't encounter anyone else, but of course, they didn't believe they were the first to arrive.
Among the major countries, Huaxia was one of the farthest from this location.
"Mr. Su, haven't we co too late? Has the material already been taken by other countries?"
Guan Zhihui walked beside Su Chen, asking with so concern.
"Since we're here, let's first take a look,"
Su Chen gently said, harboring the sa worry in his heart: if there really were such materials, they had likely already been taken by those who arrived earlier.
This was an inevitable situation determined by the geographic positions of the countries.
Moreover, Qin Ming had specifically gone to Jianghai to invite him, and it had taken several hours. Unfortunately, they had encountered a storm the previous evening, which delayed them for a few more hours, so it was inevitable that they would arrive late.
Su Chen and his companions imdiately walked deeper into the island. After about half an hour, they finally discovered a palace behind a small grove.
When they saw the palace, Su Chen was still sowhat surprised.
He had always been skeptical about the information Qin Ming had shared, but unexpectedly, on this small island, there really was such a palace!
Although the palace now looked quite dilapidated, so details still revealed its forr grandeur and splendor!
In front of that palace, there were three tents, marked respectively with the symbols of Arica, Finland, and the Island Country.
Su Chen and his companions were imdiately surprised. Had only three countries arrived so far?
Wasn't that too few? Including them, that made only four!
As footsteps sounded, people from the Arican and Island Country tents quickly erged, but there was no movent from the Finnish tent.
The leader from the Arican side was a young man dressed in a wine-red suit, wearing deep brown leather shoes, with his hair ticulously combed.
The n behind him were all explosively muscular, exceptionally tall, with the shortest probably also being about one ter ninety!
Seeing that young man, Su Chen couldn't help but want to laugh. Was this guy mistaking this for an international banquet with such flashy attire?
However, considering he had been sent by the powerful Arica to lead, Su Chen didn't dare to be careless, though he could tell at a glance what those n behind him were all about.
Undoubtedly, these n practiced hard martial arts, sowhat similar to Huaxia's Horizontal Training thod!
You should never underestimate this kind of martial arts. When mastered to the extre, it is very, very powerful!
Leading the group from the Island Country was a middle-aged man around forty years old, followed by n also in their thirties and forties, all dressed in uniform white training outfits!
"Friends from Huaxia Country, you've co too!"
Seeing Su Chen and his group, both the Aricans and the people from the Island Country ca up enthusiastically, as if they were very eager for their arrival.
This made Su Chen and his companions quite puzzled because they were here to compete for special materials!
At this mont, representatives of these two countries welcoming them warmly could only make Su Chen and his companions more cautious!
There's sothing fishy when things don't seem normal!
However, for now, Su Chen didn't point anything out and nonchalantly greeted them back.
After so simple exchanges, Su Chen also learned the identities of those two leaders; the one leading from Arica turned out to be a prince nad John, and the leader from the Island Country was nad Chuan Ye, head of a certain sect in the Island Country!
At the sa ti, Su Chen and his companions were also curious as to why they hadn't tried to retrieve that material and transport it back quickly, which didn't make sense!
"Gentlen, wasn't it said that the material is inside the palace? Why haven't you gone in to check it out?"
Su Chen casually asked.
"Ah, we went in early and had a look, but unfortunately, we didn't find it,"
Prince John sighed.
"Yes, we also searched for a few hours and ca up empty-handed,"
Chuan Ye, the leader from the Island Country, added, then turned to Su Chen:
"How about this, we join you again to take another look? Your Huaxia culture is profound and extensive; perhaps you might find so clues."
"Right, maybe we could also benefit from it if the special material is indeed found; sharing it wouldn't be an issue."
Prince John said with a friendly smile on his face.
"Alright, let's go in and have a look together then."
Su Chen casually nodded, pretending not to notice the gleam in the two n's eyes…
