Lin Caogen had already put on his diving suit and was ready to go into the sea.
However, just as he was about to jump off the yacht, a scene that shocked the world unfolded.
In the distance, an airplane was seen flying rapidly toward Lin Caogen.
Lin Caogen was taken aback, not understanding why.
However, in just three seconds, the plane was already close by.
I opened my eyes wide and looked, but there was no airplane at all. It was clearly a person.
Indeed, a one-armed man with a missing arm flew in, riding a heavy sword.
Such a scene was truly astonishing. Flying on a sword was something only seen in novels. But today, it was happening right before our eyes.
Lin Caogen stumbled backward, slowly removed his oxygen mask, and looked ahead in surprise.
The man flying on his sword arrived in front of Lin Caogen in the blink of an eye. The heavy sword beneath his feet floated up and flew into the sword box on his back. Then the man landed from mid-air, stepping onto the edge of the yacht.
Lin Caogen almost fell because he lost his balance. The yacht tilted immediately towards the sea after the man stepped on it, and a lot of seawater poured onto the yacht.
The yacht rocked from side to side for several seconds before stabilizing. However, the spot where the man was standing clearly sank.
"Such a heavy weight! This person must weigh a thousand pounds. Perhaps that heavy sword alone weighs over nine hundred pounds."
Lin Caogen was surprised and thought to himself.
The one-armed man carrying a heavy sword stared intently at Lin Caogen, scrutinizing him closely. Then he slowly spoke, "Boy, you actually found the key to my spaceship. Tell me! What wish do you have that I can grant?"
Lin Caogen stared blankly at the person in front of him, then raised his left hand, looking at the Heart of the Ocean pendant in his palm, and asked in confusion, "Spaceship key? You mean this diamond?"
The man carrying the heavy sword said indifferently, "That's right. Three hundred years ago, I had my arm cut off here, and the key was lost along with the severed arm. It was your blood that activated the key's auto-navigation function, and I was able to find this place by sensing the rays emitted by the key."
Lin Caogen felt that what he had seen and heard today was beyond his human comprehension.
He asked urgently, "This is the spaceship key? You lost an arm three hundred years ago? You're three hundred years old? How can you fly on a sword?"
The man's only remaining left hand bent slightly, and the Heart of the Ocean in Lin Caogen's hand flew directly into the man's left hand.
The man looked at the red diamond in his hand and slowly said, "My name is Yang Guo, and I come from another planet. I am now eighteen thousand years old. Three hundred years ago, I was being hunted down and fled to your remote and desolate planet in my spaceship, where my enemy severed my arm. If I hadn't been so badly injured, I could have returned to my home planet even without the spaceship. But now, in this desolate place, my severed arm cannot be regenerated."
Lin Caogen felt as if his mind was exploding.
The man opposite them, named Yang Guo, was not only an alien, but also 18,000 years old.
Yang Guo looked at Lin Caogen and said, "You're an unfortunate man, yet also the luckiest. What's your name?"
Lin Caogen looked at Yang Guo with bloodshot eyes and said, “My name is Lin Caogen, Lin as in forest, Cao as in grass, and Gen as in root and sprout. Why do you say I am the most unfortunate person, and also the most fortunate person?”
Yang Guo replied calmly, "I once studied medicine, and I can tell at a glance that your genes are broken, making you a person destined for a short life. On your desolate planet, people can live to around seventy years old, but you will die before you even reach thirty. Therefore, I say you are the most unfortunate person."
Yang Guo's gaze was piercing as he stared at Lin Caogen and said, "The reason I say you are the luckiest person is because you found the key to my spaceship. If I were to heal on this desolate planet of yours, it would take me ten thousand years to recover. Now that I have the key, I can return to my home planet in an instant. You saved me nearly ten thousand years. You are a short-lived boy with a pure heart. I can take you away from this wretched place and help you pursue immortality. What do you say?"
Lin Caogen was overjoyed and asked, "Can I bring my family with me?"
Yang Guo shook his head and said, "The planet you're on is called Earth Prison, a place where the earth serves as a prison for criminals. Even taking you away would require a great deal of my connections. As for taking your family, I don't have that kind of influence!"
Lin Caogen was startled: "Using the earth as a prison to hold criminals? Could it be that there are guards on this planet?"
Yang Guo nodded and said, "That goes without saying. My every move today was under the watchful eye of Immortal Venerable Haoyue. He once owed me a favor. Even if I were to take you away, I wouldn't be entirely confident. I would have to go to him through connections. Kid, you brought me the key, so we are destined to meet. I won't let you die like this. Here is a pill that can extend your life by three hundred years."
Lin Caogen was startled and could only utter a single "Ah".
Just then, Yang Guo flicked his finger, and a white pill shot into Lin Caogen's mouth.
It melts in your mouth in an instant.
The bloodshot eyes began to fade. The broken DNA began to recombine.
A warm current flowed through my body. My limbs and bones began to fill with power.
The changes don't stop there. The power of the elixir has not yet been fully absorbed. If it is fully absorbed in three days, Lin Caogen's body will undergo another transformation.
Yang Guo held the Heart of the Ocean in his left hand, channeling a pure power into it. The dull red diamond burst forth with dazzling light.
Lin Caogen stared in astonishment at the scene before him, where the calm sea suddenly began to surge and the waves were towering.
Before long, a huge wave surged in, sending the yacht at Lin Caogen's feet flying hundreds of meters away.
Stumbling and swaying from side to side.
In the distance, a giant ship nearly a kilometer long suddenly rose up with a roar.
Lin Caogen stared blankly at the giant ship not far away.
"Is this your spaceship? It's huge! Even our Earth's aircraft carriers aren't this big. And its exterior is so smooth, it's practically a single, seamless piece. This technology is incredibly advanced."
Yang Guo smiled faintly, "The universe is divided into four types: the magic universe, the battle qi universe, the immortal yuan universe, and the technological universe. It is said that there is also a god realm at the center of the universe. My home planet is in the technological universe, but I am naturally fond of freedom and travel around the world by ship. Later, I cultivated in the immortal yuan universe. For billions of years, there have been occasional frictions and wars between the technological universe and the immortal yuan universe. The planet you are on is one of the places in the immortal yuan universe where prisoners from the technological universe are imprisoned. In the technological universe, there are also planets where immortals are imprisoned."
These words once again overturned Lin Caogen's understanding.
He muttered to himself, "So, everyone on this planet is a prisoner? And we are actually in the Immortal Origin Universe?"
Yang Guo nodded and said, "That's right! In the Immortal Origin Universe, there are dozens of places of exile like this. Without exception, these places of exile are all places lacking in immortal energy. If I hadn't been hiding from my enemies, I wouldn't have come here. Kid, you can call me Brother Yang from now on! Time waits for no one, let's hurry up and set off. You might have an even more exciting life waiting for you."
After saying this, the warship a kilometer away slowly opened its hatch.
The silver steps automatically extended to the area beneath the Lincaogen yacht.
