Chapter 703 Arriving at the Fairy World
"Major General Rong, since you have made up your mind, I will not persuade you any more. You are a senior military officer who is carrying out the mission of exploring the alien world. Whether you can come back alive or not, you are a contributor to the country and a hero of the people. I promise you in the name of the highest commander of the military and the current leader of the country that your underage children, parents, and other family members will be properly protected by the military. Please rest assured. Finally, I hope you can arrive successfully and return safely." After President Jingyuan finished speaking, he saluted Rong Xianxian. Rong Xianxian is the strongest and highest-ranking person among those who have carried out the mission of exploring the alien world so far.
"Please rest assured, leaders. I will do my best." Rong Xianxian returned the greeting solemnly. Her voice was not loud, but it was powerful.
"Major General Rong, please come this way. We have one final preparation." Wen Qingming took Rong Xianxian to a room and pointed at a table.
Seeing Wen Qingming motioning her to sit down on the chair beside the table, Rong Xianxian looked at him in confusion.
"Major General Rong, please leave a copy of the handwritten letter. It will be kept as a top-secret file. If you return safely, the letter will be destroyed. If there is no news from you after ten years, the military will hand the letter to your children." After Wen Qingming finished speaking, he closed the door and left.
Among the seven spaceships launched previously, the first six were confirmed to have exploded in the space crack, and only the seventh, although seriously damaged, passed through the space crack safely. However, passing through the space crack safely does not mean that it can safely arrive at the fairyland. Even if it arrives successfully, it is still unknown whether it can survive in this world of cultivation. Therefore, this handwritten letter can be called a suicide note to a large extent!
After Rong Xianxian made this decision, she also considered the worst-case scenario. If she couldn't come back, what would happen to her children, parents, the properties under her name, and the brothers from the two mercenary groups? She had already made detailed plans for all these, and there shouldn't be any major mistakes. Now she left a handwritten note so that if something really happened to her, the military would ensure that her arrangements could go smoothly.
After writing the letter, Rong Xianxian boarded the spaceship without hesitation, accompanied by two other young officers.
"President, it was monitored that spacecraft R47 successfully passed through the space crack. There was no abnormality in the power system, the life capsule was not ejected, and the surface of the spacecraft was slightly damaged. Major General Rong sent back a communication and everything is normal." Wen Qingming excitedly reported to President Jingyuan.
"Okay, very good, continue monitoring." President Jingyuan happily walked closer to the monitoring screen. Suddenly, there was a crackling sound on the screen, followed by a loud "bang". The spacecraft that was running smoothly suddenly disappeared.
"What's going on?" asked President Jingyuan.
"The spacecraft encountered a strong magnetic explosion field, the communication system collapsed and has lost contact." Chief Engineer Zhang replied.
"Strong magnetic explosion field? Is there any way on the spacecraft to solve this problem and restore communications?" asked President Jingyuan.
"There's no way. The communication system on the spacecraft has been treated to resist the impact of magnetic storms. The communication system collapsed not only because of the impact of the magnetic storm, but also because of interference from other factors." Chief Engineer Zhang shook his head.
"What factors?"
“It’s impossible to tell.”
After Rong Xianxian sent back the communication that everything was normal on the spacecraft, the spacecraft began to shake violently, as if it would fall apart at any time. She held the button of the escape pod, ready to escape at any time. However, before she could press the button, she felt extremely dizzy, and the entire spacecraft seemed to have fallen into a bottomless abyss, spinning rapidly. The intense feeling of weightlessness caused Rong Xianxian to suffer from brain ischemia, her consciousness became dizzy, and her hands and feet became weak. The spacecraft could withstand extreme storms, and the high-strength titanium alloy shell that was resistant to low temperatures, heat and corrosion was like fragile paper, which was cut by the storm and flew away from the body.
The spacecraft disintegrated, and Rong Xianxian and two other crew members were directly exposed to the dangerous space environment. When Rong Xianxian was observing the positions of the other two crew members and preparing to meet up with them, she saw a very thick white light like lightning suddenly appear and sweep towards the position of one of the crew members. The crew member who was swept by the white light disappeared instantly. Rong Xianxian felt a chill in her heart. She glanced around through the helmet. The criss-crossing white light rose and fell like searchlights, filling the entire space.
These white lights appeared out of nowhere and were distributed in no regular pattern, making it impossible to avoid them. Rong Xianxian dodged here and there but was still hit by the white light with a "bang". She felt like she had hit a rapidly flying rock and was instantly knocked away. The aviation suit she was wearing, which was airtight, pressure-bearing, heat-insulating, and had a certain degree of resistance to the impact of micrometeorites and space debris, was shattered by this blow. Rong Xianxian felt a stuffiness in her chest and a squeezing and tearing pain in her body. Then her eyes went black and she lost consciousness.
After an unknown amount of time, Rong Xianxian regained consciousness in severe pain. She moved her fingers, slowly opened her eyes, and looked around. The house she was in seemed to be a thatched house. She was lying on a haystack with half-coagulated blood on it. The surroundings were quiet and empty. The protective camouflage military uniform she was wearing was torn in many places and stained with blood.
Feeling the rich spiritual energy in the air, Rong Xianxian immediately sat in meditation to regulate her breathing and check her injuries. After the examination, she found that her soul was intact, many meridians in her body were broken and blocked, the amount of spiritual energy stored was only one third of the original, and the wounds on the surface of her body had scabbed over. The pain she just felt was from the broken meridians.
Then Rong Xianxian looked inside herself and found that the Domain Stone was safely staying in her Dantian. This discovery made her feel relieved.
Rong Xianxian's soul entered the foggy space and came to the cabin next to the medicine garden. Ning Qingyun was lying quietly on the bed. There was a mechanical clock on the bedside, which was still ticking. The time shown on it was only two days and three hours compared to the time when Rong Xianxian entered the spacecraft.
The spacecraft came here through a space crack and spent not much time in the space crack. These two days might be the time she was unconscious.
Rong Xianxian confirmed that Ning Qingyun was in good health, and took a bottle of spiritual marrow, several bottles of pills and the sachet and left the foggy space. She took the spiritual marrow and healing pills, put the remaining medicines into the sachet and wore it close to her body. Being in an unfamiliar environment, she needed to heal her injuries as soon as possible to deal with situations that might arise at any time.
Rong Xianxian tried to practice martial arts to draw spiritual energy into her body, to stimulate her spiritual essence to function quickly and repair her damaged meridians. However, as soon as she started practicing the martial arts, the spiritual energy in the surrounding air was attracted and surged in, forming a thick and dripping spiritual energy vortex around her body.
