The probability can be adjusted in the configuration file, with a default probability of 10%. Except for Chicken, Dragon, and Pig, other animals require 10 extraction attempts, while these three require 100 attempts (the attempt limit is hard-coded and cannot be changed).
• Obtainment: Craftable

Cube of Tang Shan

• Ability: Extract Sheep Talisman, following the same steps as the Talisman Power Extractor

• Obtainment: Obtained through the Meteor Shower event. There is a 35% chance to find it in the treasure chest that appears after the meteor shower ends. The meteor shower event randomly triggers at midnight (12:00 AM) in the Overworld (30% probability), or can be forced using the command /meteorshower start (requires OP permission). The chest spawns inside a meteor crater and needs to be dug out to find.
