#990 - Chapter 990: Spirit War Mask, All Things Psychic

"Dongfang Chen Er, do you think that Ling Xuzi is really dead?" Monka asked after escaping from the small world.

"He is immortal," Dongfang Chen Er replied.

"Immortal?"

"That's right. Do you have a way to kill me from a minute ago?" Dongfang Chen Er asked.

"That… seems to make sense."

If Ling Xuzi came from the outside world, it would be equivalent to extending a moment in his life to an infinite length.

In that case, who has the ability to kill him?

"He, like Guiguzi, can be understood as the essence of this world's existence, a kind of natural law."

"Humans can eliminate a substance, but they can't eliminate natural laws."

"Not only can't they eliminate it, but they have to find ways to utilize the laws to achieve their goals."

Dongfang Chen Er explained.

"Then why did he pretend to be dead?" Monka asked.

"He was trying to quell our anger."

"Alright." Monka stopped talking and pointed to the second jade cong, asking:

"Shall we take a look at this next?"

"Sure."

So, the second jade cong was activated, and the entrance to the small world appeared.

This world was barren, with nothing in it.

So, they directly retreated.

Next was the third one.

This world was full of graves and stone tablets, covering the mountains and plains.

Ling Hao randomly picked a stone tablet to look at, but there wasn't a single word on it.

He looked at another one, and it was still blank.

It seemed that all the stone tablets were unmarked tombstones.

"Monka, randomly scan a grave to see what's inside," Dongfang Chen Er instructed.

In his opinion, any abnormal event hid unknown secrets.

Therefore, whether there was something buried in the grave, and what was buried, needed to be checked before it could be determined.

"Okay, wait a moment."

Two minutes later.

"There are indeed skeletons buried below," Monka reported.

"What species?"

"Human."

"Human?" Dongfang Chen Er was a little surprised.

"Identify the age."

"Definitely over 1 billion years old," Monka replied.

"What!?" Dongfang Chen Er frowned.

"I think this is normal. Who says that the humans of Sirius must be the earliest humans? With old monsters like Guiguzi and Ling Xuzi, humans could appear at any time," Monka analyzed.

"You're right. The deceased are gone, no need to delve into it." With that, they exited the small world.

Now, all three jade congs had been examined. Apart from the first small world, the remaining two were of little value.

Next were the four bronze masks.

What exactly was the use of this thing? Someone with authority would have to identify it.

So, they went to Mars through the small world entrance.

The Mayan High Priest was at the Mars base, in the Laventa tribe settlement area.

Because the High Priest had also received gene therapy, his lifespan was infinitely extended. Now, he no longer looked old and frail, but looked like he was 18 years old.

"High Priest, please take a look at this thing," Dongfang Chen Er handed over a mask.

"Where did Mr. Dongfang obtain this?" The High Priest took the mask with both hands and carefully placed it flat on the table.

Looking at this action, Dongfang Chen Er knew that there might be something to it.

"From the deep sea of the Pacific Ocean."

"I see. This kind of mask is called a Spirit Battle Mask, and it is the highest honor of our tribe's warriors," the High Priest explained.

"What is its function?" Dongfang Chen Er asked.

"Communicating with all things," the High Priest replied.

"What is meant by 'communicating with all things'?" Dongfang Chen Er asked.

"As the name suggests, it can create a connection with any living species," the High Priest explained.

"Hiss~" Dongfang Chen Er gasped.

Was it that perverted?

"Any life?" Dongfang Chen Er asked, confirming.

"Yes," the High Priest affirmed.

"Wouldn't that mean that having this mask would make one invincible?"

"Not really. The Spirit Battle Mask is more of a symbol. Whether it can be activated, and even how long it can be activated, depends on the wearer's aptitude," the High Priest shook his head.

"Then what kind of person can activate it? What are the requirements? And how is it activated?" Dongfang Chen Er asked.

This kind of thing was simply too useful to him.

If he could connect with the enemy, wouldn't he be able to easily control any species?

"In the past, the most powerful warrior in the tribe was worthy of owning this Spirit Battle Mask. As for how to activate it, I'm sorry, I don't know," the High Priest shook his head.

Their civilization's inheritance was basically based on genes, so the amount of information passed down was extremely limited.

"Could you try it?" Dongfang Chen Er asked.

"Okay." The High Priest did not decline.

Now, they had basically achieved a great integration with other humans and were no longer so stubborn and conservative.
