Chapter 459 Is This the Great Emperor Taichu?
After Captain Xue left, the news that Wei Huan and Mu Zhong would continue to stay on the spaceship to protect them spread completely, and everyone became happy.
However, there is also a downside to working under the boss's supervision. You cannot be perfunctory and you have to be serious about everything you do.
Although everyone breathed a sigh of relief, they worked more seriously. They were meticulous when on duty every day, kept video diaries during their breaks, and practiced tirelessly.
The three-month journey had some ups and downs, but it was all passed safely. It also accumulated a lot of useful data for future explorations in the divine realm.
The destination is almost here.
Wei Huan opened his eyes from his practice, with a hint of joy in his eyes.
His chaos-level bug is about to hatch in the next few days. A bug with the strength of a master level will definitely be inferior to a real master even if it meets one, but the weakest master is still a master. If it meets a god-level one, it can suppress it.
Moreover, during this period of time, he was practicing the laws on the spaceship, and his lower-level laws had made some progress. It would not be long before he would reach perfection.
By then he will have fully comprehended all the intermediate laws of Huangquan and become a god of two laws.
Although the three-month journey was boring, it did not delay other things. Now that he had arrived at the destination, Wei Huan stopped practicing and covered the ruins of the kingdom of God with his spiritual consciousness.
It was a kingdom of God that looked like a sphere, but who knows how many tens of thousands of years ago, it was split in half by some huge force. Half of the kingdom of God has disappeared, and the remaining half has survived in the wind of the law, showing a yellowish-brown color and a desolate scene.
After Captain Xue and his team reported to Mu Zhong, they left five members on the spaceship and sent out the five strongest members, including himself and Changle, wearing god-level equipment, to leave the spaceship and fly towards the ruins of the kingdom of God.
The landing and exploration went smoothly. Five team members with god-level strength were able to explore such ruins, and even if there were occasional emergencies, they were able to solve them.
Although it looked like only half of the ruins of the Kingdom of God, they were actually quite large. It took them a full week to complete the exploration of the outermost layer of the ruins.
When they returned to the spaceship, they brought back a map of the ruins, which mainly marked the anomalies they had discovered during their search.
"...This should have been a huge lake in the past, but now it's submerged in sand and dust. Under the sand and dust, I found a building that looked like it was man-made, and it seemed to be the entrance to deep underground." Changle said.
"...I have been exploring under the mountains recently and found some very valuable mineral materials. Because I need to collect more entrances first, I did not explore deeper, but I guess there should be more mineral veins in the depths." This is the genius little girl, they call her Xiaoshuang.
Captain Xue finally said, "I found ruins underground. They are the nests of a kind of intelligent life that lived in groups. The natives here should be some kind of beast, about six or seven meters long, with sharp teeth and scaly skin.
Similarly, I also found a downward entrance in the ruins. It seems that after this kingdom of God was destroyed, the remaining indigenous people faced the protection of the laws of the divine realm and moved from inside to underground to survive.
My suggestion is to continue exploring deeper, and after confirming the danger level of this ruin, we can consider whether to explore this matter separately."
Developing ruins and leading the team into action are definitely Captain Xue’s forte.
Originally, he had little talent in practicing the laws and lagged far behind his teammates of the same period. Later, after he resolutely chose to come to the Divine Realm with Wei Huan to open up the wasteland, the ancient divine body practice method was exactly what he wanted.
Now, whether in personal experience or combat effectiveness, he is the absolute leader among the human race.
Captain Xue gave the order and everyone followed it.
During this period, Wei Huan never showed up, and only Mu Zhong got involved in the good things, including the "post-indigenous era" residential area they developed deep underground. Mu Zhong also went to take a look at the underground space.
As long as there are resources, everything in the Kingdom of God has value. If you don't mind the trouble, even refining sand can be useful.
Compared to the believers in the Kingdom of God who rely on divine power to survive, species like humans who are technologically advanced and omnivorous have much stronger resilience.
After these post-indigenous people hid underground, what really made them despair was the lack of food. It was difficult to get enough food and clothing, let alone practice to become stronger.
Therefore, those materials that are very useful to human beings are piled up in the corners of the underground world like garbage, and those mineral veins hidden in the soil are huge resources.
In addition, what surprised Wei Huan was that after Team Xue and his team had initially collected and screened the mineral gravels, they discovered that there were actually a lot of divine rune stones scattered in the gravels.
However, these divine rune stones are shapeless, like sand and dust, scattered in many places deep underground, forming divine rune veins.
Even if it is very thin, as long as it exists, if you extract it, it will be the Divine Rune Stone.
Wei Huan was a little surprised when he received the news, but on second thought, it was normal.
Take his Filthy Earth World for example. After the Divine Rune Stone took root in the core of the world, countless invisible veins were entwined around the Divine Rune Stone, transporting the Divine Rune energy to every corner of the world and raising the level of the world.
Over time, these veins will retain some divine rune energy, and then transform into divine rune stones as they have discovered now, which can be mined by squeezing and sifting.
Even if the entire kingdom of God is hollowed out in the end and the purification is carried out continuously, as long as the divine rune stone is finally obtained, that is the greatest value.
And according to Captain Xue and his team, after mining these ruins of the Kingdom of God, they can build two more spaceships.
With two spaceships, we can recruit more than 30 team members, and when we go out into action, there may be four spaceships together.
What is ascension? This is ascension!
The divine pattern veins, plus other precious veins, were a great return on investment for mankind’s first outward exploration.
The scavenging team's mission has not ended here. They carry a large number of mining robots and storage bags with them. The next step is to wait for the mining of rare mineral veins.
However, with such a large world, it is impossible for only ten of them to complete the mining, so they will only take away the most precious materials first and then return.
Next, once it is confirmed that this divine country is valuable, the real mining team of Qiyuan Star will set out, build fortifications here, construct a resource base, and continuously send resources back to Qiyuan Star.
However, the regrettable thing is that the so-called "mining brigade" is still being formed.
Building a spaceship for ten people is relatively simple, but building a spaceship for a base is not that simple.
Wei Huan was very calm about this.
Any development requires a process, and the mining brigade is one of the processes. Even if it doesn't exist now, there will always be one in the future. It's not his turn to worry about these things.
However, after learning that there were divine rune veins in the ruins of the kingdom of God, Wei Huan also went to the ruins, attempting to use his ability to collect these divine rune stones.
He may not "eat the grass near his own yard", but it is still good to squeeze some oil and water from the ruins of the kingdom of God in the distance.
Then I found that although it is troublesome, it is not impossible to get the wool if you have time.
It's just time-consuming and labor-intensive work.
If there were not a limited number of gods in this world, and one could reach godhood through practice, then under the intense competition for resources, the gods would probably still be willing to spend time on mining.
As for now, there are only so many gods, and each one is high and mighty. In addition, the gods active in the divine realm now are all the victorious gods of the past, so they disdain to do this kind of mining work.
Wei Huan didn't mind.
Of course he would dig as long as he had time.
After all, he was not the one digging it himself. He had the facehugger tribe which was very suitable for mining and collection, plus hundreds of billions of undead armies. It would not take too long for him to "eat away" a kingdom of God.
However, now his main task is to improve his strength to deal with possible crises in the future.
During this period, Wei Huan always thought of the scene where the Lord of Flesh and Blood and the Lord of Light left with the Kingdom of God.
So much time has passed, and there's still no news. What on earth were they doing? Has the struggle for power within the Great Emperor of the Beginning really reached its most crucial moment?
Wei Huan prayed sincerely in his heart that everything would go wrong for them, that they would fail in everything they did, and that they would never achieve their goals.
Staying here for another year.
The Divine Realm team, having filled up all their storage space, had no choice but to return.
They were filled with regret and discussed that everyone had underestimated the resource reserves of the ruins of the Kingdom of God. They also said that next time they came, they would bring ten times the storage space and prepare more robots.
Mu Zhong wanted to fly back several times and bring the robots and storage space with him, but he finally held back.
When they were young, he could feed them food. Now that the "children" have grown up, he can't keep chasing them to feed them food, right?
Even if this is done slowly, it is a form of positive growth and will become more efficient in the future.
Wei Huan and Mu Zhong accompanied them for another three months and returned to Qiyuan Star, completing this mission of protecting the road.
This success has greatly excited the humans on Qiyuan Star. With the first success in outward exploration, there will be more successes in the future. They will no longer be restricted by the resources on Qiyuan Star and can live with peace of mind.
The population on Qiyuan Star has experienced another explosive growth.
The willingness of ordinary people to have children is a reflection of their desire to live and work in peace and contentment. For those in power, the more people there are, the better.
Only then can more talents emerge.
However, these things have nothing to do with Wei Huan for the time being.
He completed the mission of protecting the Dao, and on the third day after returning, he and Mu Zhong went to the Chaos Source Gap to kill the evil beast.
This time, another ten years will pass.
Time flies. Wei Huan returned from the source of chaos. After seeing the huge changes on Qiyuan Star, he understood why the gods were so indifferent to ordinary creatures.
Some of the people I knew had passed away due to their age, while others were scattered everywhere, busy with their own work and finding new people to care about.
His ten years were but a very short fragment in the long life of a god, but for many mortals, it meant they had grown from childhood to youth, and some had gone from old age to the grave.
Their understanding of time, like that of the Lords of Flesh and Blood, also began to become a little vague.
In ten years, for ordinary people, the living environment has changed a lot.
Later, the Wuxing people lived on Qiyuanxing for more than 20 years and began to truly integrate into this planet. Ordinary people would intermarry with each other, and talented people began to enter high-level management positions. Under the instructions of the rulers, the differences between races gradually blurred.
The "Divine Realm Team" that was originally formed had more than 1,000 members in just ten years, including more than 200 Wuxing people.
The bloodline of the Wuxing people is very suitable for cultivating the ancient divine body, and their talent in practicing the laws is not too bad. In terms of growth rate, they are even faster than the Canglanxing people.
Now that Nujiao's ancient divine body has become a god, Wuxing people have more initiative in the layout of high-level positions.
Canglan Star is more inclined to practice the law system, and their clan is very talented in the gold system. It's a pity that they all follow Haotian's path, and now they are at a disadvantage in the selection of talents for dual cultivation of ancient methods.
As for Wei Huan’s compatriots, the people of Blue Star naturally have the highest talent for cultivation. This may also be related to the fact that all the resources Wei Huan has collected must be most suitable for the people of Blue Star.
After all, he was born on Blue Star. If he can grow significantly by using a certain resource, then other people on Blue Star must be suitable for it as well.
In addition, there are four gods on Blue Star, and the leader of the human race also comes from Blue Star. It is natural for Blue Star to obtain more resources and cultivate more talents.
During this period, Dou Lin also returned to Blue Star and went back to his hometown to gather a group of children with the talent to cultivate ancient divine bodies, once again strengthening the power of the Blue Star people on Qiyuan Star.
In fact, it is not correct to describe civilizations from different planets separately. After all, on Qiyuan Star, the idea from top to bottom is to blur the barriers between civilizations as much as possible.
The three ethnic groups are like three flowers, and the three tribes are like brothers and sisters of one family. It is not politically correct to describe them separately.
In short, Qiyuan Star has developed very well under the management of the ruling party. The people's livelihood issues on the planet are harmonious and complete, and the people live and work in peace and contentment.
Outward…there has also been significant development in the past decade.
The "Divine Realm Team" began to explore further, and a large spaceship loaded with large excavation equipment had already flown to the ruins of the Divine Kingdom they had visited two years ago, and built a resource base there.
The benefits of working at the resource base are very high. Many people in Qiyuanxing are signing up to work there, and the positions are in short supply.
What is also very interesting is that a "black market" has appeared on Qiyuan Star, which sells a lot of materials from unofficial channels, and even a small amount of divine rune stones are for sale.
After talking with Mu Dehao, I found out that the largest business in the black market was officially opened.
This is done to alleviate some imbalances in resource distribution and provide some organizations and individuals with channels to obtain supplies. This is a very effective appeasement policy under political means.
Besides, the meat is rotten in the pot and will be consumed by themselves in the end.
Wei Huan returned to Qiyuan Star and stayed there for a year, then left.
This time he did not bring Mu Zhong with him, but went to the Challenge World alone, and went all the way deeper into the Challenge World. Finally, with the help of his teacher, he was sent to the deep core of the Challenge World, where the "Power of Reincarnation" was.
Over the past ten years, in order to kill evil beasts in the chaos source gap, the ancient god body has been replenished. Now the progress of ancient god body cultivation has reached 68%.
But the intake of chaos has reached saturation, and he must rest for a while before continuing.
This period is a good opportunity to practice the "Middle Law of Reincarnation".
Wei Huan always lacked some talent for the "Law of Reincarnation". When his own abilities were insufficient, he would make up for it with external things. The reincarnation authority of the Great Emperor Taichu was obtained by the Lord of Life and became the core of the operation of the entire Challenge World. Until now, people living on Qiyuan Star, including newborn babies, must return to that "reincarnation" after death and be controlled by the Challenge World again.
Wei Huan did not have the idea of seizing this "Reincarnation", but he also knew that his current strength was insufficient. Instead of having some unrealistic dreams, it would be better to use the observation of "Reincarnation" to understand the laws of Reincarnation.
It is more likely to succeed if you first understand the law of reincarnation and achieve the level of a master god before you try to master this "reincarnation".
With the help of his teacher, he returned to the "reincarnation" again. The power that shocked the soul was always there. The stacking and rotation of countless souls made even Wei Huan feel nauseous and want to vomit after watching it for a long time.
The feeling was not so much contamination as it was that he was building a connection with a channel he was not familiar with.
It’s like riding a roller coaster. You feel uncomfortable at first, but if you ride it more than ten times a day and vomit every time, after a few days, you stop vomiting and even start to enjoy it.
Every time Wei Huan probed his spiritual consciousness into that "reincarnation", he would soon suffer from a splitting headache, but as soon as he felt better, he would continue to explore the mysteries contained therein.
At the beginning, I had to rest for most of the day after observing for one minute, but later I only needed to rest for ten minutes after observing for an hour. The progress is very obvious.
On this day, Wei Huanzheng, just like before, immersed his consciousness into the reincarnation, observing the state of the soul in the reincarnation, and capturing every tiny change in the operation of the reincarnation.
Suddenly, a strong suction force pulled his consciousness deeper.
He had no time to resist, and he felt a black screen before his eyes and lost consciousness.
That's right, losing consciousness.
With his ability, even if his spiritual consciousness was attacked in some way, he could cut off that strand of spiritual consciousness and ensure his own safety.
Instead of being pulled into the extreme darkness without any resistance like now, and completely losing control of oneself.
When he came to his senses, he found himself falling.
This feeling of falling is very familiar.
Wei Huan looked at the various huge figures that were looming in the depths of the darkness. He even saw a two-headed hidden demon that was as big as a planet, and the extremely huge Moji. They were sitting on the throne in the distance, staring straight at him, with a gloomy and dark sculptural feeling on their faces, which was so heavy that it made people breathless.
He remembered this feeling.
Many, many years ago, when he had just embarked on the path of cultivation, he entered a state of enlightenment by coincidence.
He kept falling down like this, and at the same time, the law of death became more and more pure. The principles of the law that he had previously comprehended with great difficulty were like simple and popular music, constantly echoing in his ears.
Or perhaps, the principles of these laws are so clear and understandable in this process because they are the laws he has mastered.
Only the law of reincarnation is like a shy girl, appearing and disappearing, elusive and difficult to capture.
Wei Huan shifted his attention from the eerie sculptures in the distance and followed the laws of the reincarnation system, just like a playboy chasing a young woman. He chased after her with a laugh and a joking stagger, but he could only touch the edge of her clothes and could not really catch her.
This won't work.
The purpose of his coming here was to comprehend reincarnation, and he must not let go of the opportunity that had come to him.
He calmed down, then pounced forward and finally grasped a corner of the law.
But before he could comprehend anything more, "Boom!" A powerful force came crashing down like a hammer at a certain moment.
He saw in the deepest part of the darkness, a boundless and huge mountain, pitch black, stretching and undulating to the end of the vision.
He was hit by the hammer-like force and fell rapidly down the mountain wall.
This feeling is very familiar, it seems to be the same last time.
But unlike the last time when he felt near death, this time he could clearly determine that he was being carried by some force, passing through countless spaces. Even he felt a little uncomfortable with the feeling of traveling through time. No wonder he thought he was going to die.
Finally, the feeling of being cramped and bumpy while traveling through space disappeared, and his body relaxed, as if he had reached his destination.
Wei Huan immediately stood up and looked in one direction, where he saw a majestic presence that made his pupils shrink suddenly.
It was an incomparably huge existence. Even the dominant kingdom of God was as small as dust in front of it.
The planet is but a cell in His gigantic body, and humans are not even microorganisms.
He seemed to be the universe itself, and Wei Huan still could not see His face clearly this time.
All we know is that He is like a combination of human and animal forms, with an upright human body but covered in various ferocious horns.
He lay motionless as if he were sleeping, but in fact he was entangled in the aura of death. The gray aura of death twisted and turned into hideous shapes, and the horror felt as tangible as a substance.
This is... the remains of the Great Emperor Taichu.
Or is it the original illusion conveyed by the authority of reincarnation?
Wei Huan is no longer the ordinary person who knew nothing. His knowledge and ability support his vision.
He was absolutely certain that these were the remains of Emperor Taichu.
After all, he had seen too many remains of ancient gods, and the feeling of being alive was very shocking when he first came into contact with them. It was as if they were asleep and might jump up and kill him at any time.
But when he, who was familiar with the body, felt it carefully, he found that the remains were completely dead. An unignorable death aura lingered on the body. He could even sense that there was not even a trace of true spirit left in the body.
If he is really the corpse of the Great Emperor Taichu, I believe that the Great Emperor Hongmeng and the Great Emperor Hundun will never allow that bit of true spirit to exist.
In addition, the reason why Wei Huan confirmed that this was the corpse of Emperor Taichu was that he saw a familiar nine-headed dragon at this moment.
A big pearl.
The other is the five-colored rays of light, which might be the glittering flower that held the big pearl. He originally thought that this flower was also the kingdom of God dominated by the Lord of Light, but now it seems that this should be the kingdom dominated by the elements.
