This is the only option left.
Jiang Zhi canceled the upcoming meetings; she wanted to have a day to calm down.
Back in her room, she immediately teleported into her spatial dimension. Since receiving the inheritance for the first time, she had never set foot in the thatched hut again.
The place remains the same as it was back then, but her memories are somewhat hazy.
Stepping over the threshold, the tables and shelves inside came into view. The paper written in small seal script was still on the table, its position unchanged.
Is this just an illusion?
Jiang Zhi picked up the paper, her curiosity and joy just as they had before.
At that very moment, memories of this space began to become clear.
After meditating for three hours, Jiang Zhi stood up from the table, her calm eyes holding something different.
“Yes!” she said.
Wanfu peered into the doorway and asked curiously, "What did Mom find?"
Jiang Zhi shook her head and remained silent.
Actually, this story goes back to her past life. Before she died, all the blood in her body was absorbed by an array left by an ancient powerful being, thus binding her to this entrance into the ancient time and space.
This ancient timeline is actually a cycle on Earth, and the abilities she cultivated and acquired belong to the ancient era.
As Earth's cycle of reincarnation caused a spacetime distortion, she found the entrance to the ancient timeline, and her spatial barrier is the key to connecting to that ancient timeline.
If we can find a way to start from here, perhaps everything will return to normal.
However, she currently lacks the ability and cannot find the relevant methods.
Before going to the plateau, she gained a very powerful force at the Bright Base, which directly caused a qualitative change in several of her skills.
She vaguely remembered that it started when she saved someone, and she would receive this power from time to time.
After the Fuxi Base, this feeling returned, similar to the one at the Guangming Base, but her skills didn't level up.
Could it be that it has already been upgraded to the top-of-the-line model?
After leaving the space, Jiang Zhi sent a message to Pang Tongming, and the two met at the experimental center.
"Minister Jiang, we have made a new discovery. We have been studying the source of the crystal's power. Until two hours ago, we specifically placed Seed No. 1 with other low-level mutated beasts and used an energy recognition reader to read and write the communication signals between them. We found that Seed No. 1's signal was stronger than that of the other low-level mutated beasts, and this energy signal was exactly the same as the crystal's energy signal. Therefore, it is highly likely that the high-level crystal has a limiting effect on the low-level crystal, and the main source of power of this crystal is related to Seed No. 1's body."
"When Seed No. 1's body is transmitting signals, its pores are open, absorbing some unknown energy from the air. So our people started to study the composition of substances in the air. The data has changed compared to before, but we haven't been able to analyze what the specific components that have changed are."
Jiang Zhi picked up the conversation, asking, "Where do superhumans get their energy from?"
"It's very mysterious; it's a kind of energy from nature that science can't explain."
“Therefore, I suspect that animals also absorbed this natural force, which led to their transformation and mutation,” Jiang Zhi said.
“But human ability users don’t have crystals in their bodies.” Pang Tongming understood Jiang Zhi’s meaning somewhat.
Based on Xuan Yu's proposed idea, after spacetime is folded, the external energy changes.
Humans and animals have undergone mutations, and mutated plants have also been discovered. These plant species are unlike anything ever seen on Earth, and their fruits contain energy that can enhance the cultivation of those with supernatural abilities.
However, this plant is extremely rare and seldom seen in the world; only five specimens have been discovered in all these years.
One of them was destroyed while fighting its guardian mutant beast.
"As long as the disordered spacetime returns to normal, human civilization can continue."
"But what can we do? Human power is too insignificant; it's simply impossible to shake them," Pang Tongming said helplessly.
They really did their best.
Jiang Zhi shook her head and left the experimental center, heading towards Zhou Renchang's place.
"I need to leave the base for a while to do something very important."
Jiang Zhi stated her purpose directly, which clearly surprised Zhou Renchang.
After a long pause, Zhou Renchang spoke up: "Do you really have to leave?"
“Absolutely, and I will go alone.” Jiang Zhi’s words directly stopped Zhou Renchang from sending someone with her.
“But… Jiang Zhi, if the Fuxi Base… the human survivors lose you, it will be the greatest loss.” Zhou Renchang said earnestly.
"I won't die. As long as I have a breath left, I will definitely come back." Jiang Zhi's gaze was firm.
Is the apocalypse a good thing?
It's not good at all.
If she had the ability, she would be willing to end this apocalypse.
After a long silence, Zhou Renchang's bright eyes dimmed, and he said, "Go ahead, I believe in the justice in your heart."
"Thank you."
Although Zhou Renchang was not as pure as Zhang Zhaohe, he was indeed quite sincere.
Jiang Zhi arrived at the underground city's granary, a temperature-controlled granary built at the same time as the underground city was constructed.
She directly transferred the guards, turned off the surveillance, and poured 100 tons of rice, 80 tons of corn, and 20 tons of sweet potatoes into the giant granary.
She had cultivated countless grains over the years, and even after clearing them out, she still had more than half of them left in her spatial time-stabilized zone.
However, this is just a drop in the bucket for a population of tens of millions, but it can alleviate the food shortage at the base for a short time.
Most of the ice and snow outside has melted, leaving ice water everywhere. The permafrost has thawed, and many places have developed into marshes, wetlands, ponds, or lakes.
Shi Yang was driving a small boat borrowed from the base. This kind of boat, which uses crystals to convert energy, didn't require her to exert much effort.
She has already replaced the power system in the space with a crystal energy system. There are a lot of space crystals, and it would be a shame if they couldn't be used.
Since switching to a crystal system, she no longer needs to conserve electricity.
"Mom, where are we going?" Wanfu squatted at the bow of the boat, looking around at the vast expanse of snow and water, where mutated beasts often appeared, but they were all too intimidated to approach.
Jiang Zhi occasionally used the "Immortal's Guidance" technique to kill a few, or catch them to feed Wanfu.
"Let's go to a mysterious place that will give me a chance." Jiang Zhi looked up into the distance; she would always remember that ice cave.
In a large mountain in Xuancheng, after the polar night, she was chased by those two vile people to a crevice in the icy mountain and jumped into an ice cave.
He thought he was going to die, but he was given a chance to be reborn.
Opportunity?
Wanfu indicated that he didn't quite understand.
Why do I feel like my mom is hiding some earth-shattering secret?
Wanfu tilted its head and touched the icy water outside the boat with its paw; the chilling sensation made it shiver.
It withdrew its hand and licked its paw.
The water even tastes a little sweet.
The sun hadn't set yet, but Jiang Zhi felt that time was getting longer.
