#644 - If you want to destroy someone, you must first make him crazy
The Life Ancient Star was not small, but not too large either, with a diameter of approximately tens of millions of miles, less than one-tenth the size of the Emperor Beginning Star.
Previously, due to the great distance, only the sun and this ancient star could be seen.
In fact, there were other planets here, but they were very small, all with diameters of less than one hundred thousand kilometers, and could not be seen from afar.
They revolved around the ancient star below, their surfaces pockmarked with large craters from meteorite impacts, covered in a thick layer of gray dust, devoid of vegetation and water, a desolate scene.
However, not all the stars were desolate; some had vegetation, with undulating mountains, and even metal structures excavating something on their surfaces.
“Those are rune machines…”
Ling Qingyu explained that since ancient times, it had been said that in the depths of certain universes, there existed unique human civilizations whose development focused not on cultivating themselves, but on rune research, using runes to release the energy of certain substances to create various strange machines and weapons.
“Actually, your universe also has a very high level of rune technology.”
Ling Qingyu pointed out that the rune communication networks spanning the starry sky were one of the pinnacles of rune technology, capable of communicating across many star systems and countless light-years.
“It's just that in daily life, very few people use rune technology to create substitutes because we all believe that true strength lies in oneself, and there is no need for those things to replace us.
Anything that rune technology can do, cultivators can basically do themselves, and often the products of rune technology are far less reliable and convenient than the abilities of cultivators themselves…”
“Let's go take a look.”
Ling Qingyu and Jun Wuxie headed towards those stars with vegetation.
Upon arriving on the planet, they quickly discovered the base established by the people of the Life Ancient Star.
“Starry Sky Material Biological Research Institute?”
He looked at the name of the base, finding it somewhat strange. What were they researching?
Soon, they arrived near the research institute, concealed in the void, and easily passed through layers of checkpoints, penetrating deep inside.
Inside, there were metal-constructed rooms and corridors everywhere, along with many soldier-like figures, wielding rune weapons, standing guard on both sides of the corridors like javelins.
Some people in white coats walked back and forth inside.
“They also seem to cultivate, but it's not systematic. There is weak energy flowing in their bodies, but they don't have a blessed land, relying on the dantian to store limited energy…”
Jun Wuxie released his divine sense and scanned the area.
They continued deeper, gradually discovering several more powerful individuals.
Their energy was equivalent to the Saint Sect level, with badges on their chests engraved with the words “Special Grade Gene Warrior.”
He had never seen these characters before, but as his divine sense swept through their minds, he instantly copied and digested all the memory information within.
“Their cultivation relies on researching biological agents to strengthen and alter their genes in this way, which is considered an unconventional path, but the growth ceiling is not high.
From the memory information of these people, it seems that above the Special Grade Gene Warrior, there is only the Super Grade Gene Warrior, called the Transcendent Grandmaster.”
Ling Qingyu also gleaned the memory information of those people, especially those in white coats researching gene runes, saying, “According to their method, given enough time, they might reach the Saint Realm in the future, but it's basically impossible to go any higher.
However, these gene potions are quite interesting, purely enhancing the energy in the body, strengthening the physique, treating the human body as a container, expanding the container, and increasing the storage capacity.”
“Do you think that before the Saint Realm, we cultivators can cultivate in this way?” Jun Wuxie looked at Ling Qingyu, who thought for a moment and said, “We should be able to.
These potions are extracted from the universe's natural resources, and refined with our system and cultivation methods, they won't leave any drawbacks, purely absorbing their energy, which is actually similar to our alchemy…”
“I obtained a top-level formula from the minds of those people. The potion made from it is useful to Semi-Saints.”
Jun Wuxie continuously plundered the memories of those people, obtaining many formulas and their detailed production processes.
These processes seemed very complicated, but for powerful souls like them, it was not difficult, and they quickly mastered the entire process.
Everything in the world is inseparable from its rules, evolving and transforming within those rules.
Cultivators are constantly sensing and understanding the rules of the world.
“Although this civilization is weak, in this broken universe, it's quite rare.
Let's go down and take a look.”
Ling Qingyu pulled Jun Wuxie away from the research base and headed towards the Life Ancient Star.
While flying down through the atmosphere, they touched some kind of energy prohibition.
It was a circular light罩, enveloping the entire ancient star.
The moment they passed through, the light罩 lit up.
They saw countless people on the ancient star looking up at the sky.
Then, sharp alarms sounded in every city.
Doo doo doo…
When they were still hundreds of meters above the ground, a person in tight clothes, with strong muscles and a shield in hand, rushed into the sky from the city below.
He sprinted through the air, gaining momentum, and threw the shield in his hand, smashing towards them, creating a thunderous sonic boom.
Jun Wuxie was stunned. It seemed these people regarded him and Ling Qingyu as invaders.
Seeing someone attacking, he couldn't help but smile wryly, facing the shield that was smashing towards him, he gently blew a breath.
The shield shattered into four or five pieces.
It was just someone with an energy level equivalent to the early Saint Sect.
Seeing the shield shatter, the person rushed over directly, his eyes suddenly turning blood red, shooting two beams of energy light at them.
Jun Wuxie and Ling Qingyu ignored him, simply walking forward, letting the light beams attack.
The light beams dissipated before they even touched their bodies.
At this moment, they arrived in front of that person.
Jun Wuxie reached out his finger and poked him. The person crashed from the sky, smashing a pit dozens of meters deep into the ground, struggling for a long time before getting up, looking at them in horror.
“Are you aliens?”
Several people with not low energy levels stepped forward, helping up the person whose shield had shattered, and asked Jun Wuxie and Ling Qingyu.
“You could say that. We have no malice, just wanted to come to your planet to take a look.”
Jun Wuxie said with a smile, then landed in the city, walking side by side with Ling Qingyu.
Everyone in the city retreated when they saw them.
Their speed was very fast, seemingly strolling, but in reality, they moved thousands, tens of thousands of meters in an instant…
In an instant, they disappeared from the sight of those people.
“The civilization on this ancient star…” Jun Wuxie shook his head and said, “There are very few people who cultivate using biological genes and potions.
The physiques of ordinary people are very weak, but it's also in line with the laws. Although they are weak, they can adapt to the gravity and atmospheric pressure of this ancient star.”
Ling Qingyu nodded in agreement, “Strength and weakness are related to the living environment.
If the mortals of this ancient star went to a miniature Life Ancient Star with a diameter of several thousand meters, they would be invincible powerhouses, capable of tearing apart mountains and rivers with a flip of their hands, but if they came to our place, they would be crushed into meat paste by the gravity and atmospheric pressure, their bodies and souls destroyed.”
“Let's go, let's go to other cities to see and understand their civilization, perhaps it will help us comprehend the Dao in the future.”
Jun Wuxie said this, and Ling Qingyu agreed.
Different civilizations, regardless of their level, are the result of the evolution of rules. The more things a cultivator has in their mind, the deeper their understanding, this is a theorem.
…
At the same time, in a building in a certain city, a group of people surrounded a young man with fiery eyes, watching the scene on the screen.
The scene was the scene of Jun Wuxie and Ling Qingyu descending from the sky.
“Quickly mobilize all the rune sky eyes and track their location at all times!”
The young man's eyes were extremely fiery, his face full of excitement, and said, “You immediately go to the Debao Biological Research Institute to collect the No. 1 new energy crystal core and load it onto the rune weapons.
Equip me with a thousand-man battle team, and we must leave those two people behind!”
“Young Master Mennie Jane, the thousand-man battle team is the entire number of gene warriors in our group. If the head of the family blames us, I'm afraid…”
“Damn it, can't you understand what this young master is saying? You bunch of cowards, our No. 1 new energy crystal core is a divine weapon to restrain aliens and creatures from outside the sky!
As long as they are hit, it can suppress the energy in their bodies, and then those two people can only be at our mercy!”
Mennie Jane's face was full of madness: “The man can be used for research and experimentation, his value is immeasurable, and this young master wants to take the woman as a personal maid!
Have you ever seen such a beautiful woman? Oh my god, this young master is going crazy, that woman is too beautiful, this young master must get her!”
“Yes, Young Master Mennie Jane!”
“Wait, add fifty rune fighters and twenty rune missile vehicles, lock them all on to me!
Even if they have the ability to reach the sky, don't even think about escaping this young master's palm! Go quickly, this young master can't wait!”
Several middle-aged people left in a hurry.
That Young Master Mennie Jane pushed away the person controlling the seat in front of the screen, sat down with a thud, and looked at the scene on the screen with his legs crossed.
Inside was the real-time tracking footage, Jun Wuxie and Ling Qingyu were tracked wherever they went, completely presented on the screen.
Mennie Jane held a goblet in his hand, shaking the red wine.
His eyes were always locked on Ling Qingyu's body, with extremely strong desire shining in his eyes from time to time.
He had never seen such a beautiful woman. Before this, he couldn't even imagine that a woman could be beautiful to this extent. No words in the world were enough to describe even a fraction of her beauty.
He felt like he was suffocating, like he was struggling to breathe amidst such beauty!
…
“Someone is tracking us. I sense a kind of hostility. Someone on this ancient star intends to deal with us.”
Ling Qingyu communicated with Jun Wuxie through divine sense.
Jun Wuxie looked at her upon hearing this, and the two couldn't help but smile.
The meaning within that smile was probably only known to them.
“How long do you plan to stay here?”
He asked Ling Qingyu.
Ling Qingyu shook her head and said, “We came out of curiosity, but the civilization here has disappointed me. Although it's novel, I've learned almost everything about it. We'll visit some cities in different regions, and then we'll return. The heaven and earth essence here is very weak, almost nonexistent. For cultivators, it's difficult to get used to such an environment.”
Jun Wuxie nodded.
This universe should have had a strong cultivation civilization in the past, but it was broken due to some reason, causing the order to be incomplete and the essence to be lacking.
It's already good that there is such a civilization now. I don't know how long it took to evolve to this extent.
