A scouting mission was out of the question but Lind only needed to know where and he created what he needed. His Forging and weaving worked in tandem to create small and impossibly powerful artifacts that could function in the empty space between the holds.
Unlike his previous creations, they had to function entirely on internal power. For that purpose he used his weavings. He created a weaving that created a cycle of energy on par with a star.
It was contained to the size of a small chicken egg while the traces connected to the ore he Forged into a craft built to relay what it saw without being detected at all. There was no trace of Qi, only raw forces of the universe contained behind shielding that were purely physical.
The recording and detection ability were also mechanical. Silent and without a ripple any cultivator could grasp made many of his own family scratch their heads. They had never conceived of such a thing.
