Chapter 1079: Above the Sun
Chapter 1079: Above the Sun
Sometimes, negotiations can yield far more wealth than what can be gained on the battlefield.
For example, now, from the Shadowless Demon Lord, Chu Fei has obtained a large amount of magic skills, as well as information about the Seven Stars Continent - this is the key point.
It turns out that this place was discovered a long time ago, but no one has ever had the opportunity to enter here.
In this dusk ruin, there are treasures from ancient times, as well as treasures left behind by the powerful who died later.
After a long period of baptism, those treasures that were easy to get have been discovered and taken away, but there are still many hidden in the vast void.
This dusk ruin covers an area of ten light years and is an ellipsoidal space as a whole.
In a world of ten light years, even if a Golden Immortal came to search, it would be like looking for a needle in a haystack. Not to mention the chaotic environment and serious interference here, the Golden Immortal's search ability would be greatly reduced.
In fact, the current Dusk Ruins cannot attract Golden Immortals and above.
The good things were taken away in ancient times, and the remaining things were either not taken away or were not valued by the Golden Immortals.
But for celestial beings and below, many of the remaining things are still very attractive, but hard to find.
To sum up, the treasures here are divided into three categories:
The best ones were not taken away back then, and it is probably difficult to take them away now;
Secondly, the strong men back then didn’t think much of them, but these things are still growing, and they are better now, but they are hidden deeper, so it is not ruled out that the masters took the initiative to arrange various concealment formations;
Finally, there are those that were left over by the strong ones or those left behind by the masters who died. However, the dragon clan has been exploring for so many years, and no one knows how many are left.
There is a "growth treasure" here in the Qiyao Continent. It is estimated that a strong man saw it in the past and marked this place, leaving a guide for future generations, but there are also some obstacles around it.
However, this expert probably didn't think that there was a bug-level existence like Shenglong Palace, and the shielding set up back then was completely ineffective in front of the radar.
In short, this master left behind an opportunity. But later, the world changed drastically, and his descendants were not up to the task. Their cultivation deteriorated and they caused trouble everywhere, and were eventually destroyed by others. The sects that destroyed this sect were the Yunxu Sect, the Zhenmo Sect, and the Golden Storm Divine Realm.
It’s just that the Golden Storm Divine Realm was not very competitive, or it could be said that the Yunxu Sect and the True Demon Sect were too competitive. After obtaining the treasures from the previous sect, the Yunxu Sect and the True Demon Sect made rapid progress, while only the Golden Storm Divine Realm remained stagnant.
Perhaps the Golden Storm Divine Realm could make an excuse - we really have no use for the things related to cultivation.
But no matter what, the three parties got the information about the Qiyao Continent. However, even if they got this information before, they could only sigh in despair. This thing is in the territory of the Dragon Clan, and everyone is powerless.
In this world of cultivation, millions of years pass in the blink of an eye.
Until this True God Competition.
However, after everyone arrived, they had explored for more than a year before the Shenglong Palace appeared, but they found nothing. When they were preparing to negotiate and exchange territory, the Shenglong Palace appeared.
After listening to the words of Shadowless Demon Lord and looking at the "pass" given by Shadowless Demon Lord, Chu Fei seemed to be thinking about something.
When the three parties attacked the previous sect, they obviously lost something really important, such as a key.
Now everyone only got a pass, but there was no information about what was there, how to collect it, etc. Otherwise, the three parties would not have explored for more than a year and found nothing.
But then again, who would have thought that things that happened millions of years ago would be useful millions of years later. The three parties have done a good job in digging out the old data from the warehouse. You know, some countries have emptied their vaults decades ago.
After the Shadowless Demon Lord finished speaking, he sat aside and said nothing. But everyone in the Shenglong Palace started to discuss. Of course, the internal discussion was in Chinese, which the Shadowless Demon Lord could not understand.
After a while, when everyone had almost finished discussing, Chu Fei smiled and clapped his hands, "Okay, everyone, don't take this matter to heart. If you can find it, that's better. If you can't, it doesn't matter. Our Yanhuang civilization has developed to this point, when did we rely on so-called treasures?"
"That's right! Master Chu is right." Shangguan Qinghong was the first to respond, "The development of Yanhuang civilization to this point is more due to our own efforts, rather than relying on so-called treasures."
Zhou Minghao nodded, "That's true. Although we also obtained some treasures, even if we got treasures, we disassembled them for research instead of using them directly. Even in the battlefield outside the domain, we did the same.
Foreign things are not as easy to use as your own things. "
Everyone woke up and nodded in agreement.
Chu Fei said to the somewhat confused Shadowless Demon Lord: "Shadowless Demon Lord, after discussion, we think that our attitude towards this treasure is as follows.
If we can find one, it will be better. If we can't, it doesn't matter. We came here just because we found that the environment here is suitable for building our own base.
I have a suggestion. How about we work together to find this treasure?
If you find it, let us study it and return it to you later;
If we find it, we will study it and give it to you, but you will have to pay a price. "
Shadowless Demon Lord was stunned for a moment. "This kind of treasure that can lead a continent to breed the sun must be at least at the Golden Immortal level. Don't you want it?"
Chu Fei smiled brightly and confidently: "Look around here, look at our fleet, is there anything that has traces of being excavated from the ruins?"
The Shadowless Demon Lord was silent.
As a powerful person at the level of a true god, he has seen the spaceships of Shenglong Palace and so on along the way. All these things are obviously newly built and do not have any "ancient feeling".
The performance of Shenglong Palace is very similar to that of some "weapon refining sects", but more extreme.
After a moment of silence, Shadowless Demon Lord emphasized again: "This kind of treasure may be at the level of Golden Immortal."
Chu Fei showed a nonchalant expression. I have a real Golden Immortal at home, which is much more useful than any Golden Immortal item! Hey, wait, can you use "useful" to describe Golden Immortal? Forget it, it's not important.
Seeing Chu Fei's expression, Shadowless Demon Lord took a deep breath and said, "Okay, deal. But how can I trust you?"
Chu Fei: "If you don't believe me, you can leave. You have already told us the information you know, and our previous grievances are written off. As long as you don't attack our Shenglong Palace again in the future, we can go our separate ways.
I know your habits as a demon, your own parents don't believe in it, so I won't try to persuade them.
You choose.”
The Shadowless Demon Lord hesitated, stood up, walked out, and walked to the door... He stopped, turned his head and looked at Chu Fei and others, "Are you really letting us go?"
Chu Fei had already stood up and told his people to adjourn the meeting. He then asked a "robot" to escort the Shadowless Demon Lord out of the spaceship.
The Shadowless Demon Lord suddenly said, "I want to try."
"No, the opportunity is missed." Chu Fei disappeared in the corridor. However, the domain still enveloped the Shadowless Demon Lord.
You should always be careful with these demons. It is not easy to cultivate to the demon level, and the bloody killings at the hands of each demon are difficult to count.
In this world, Chu Fei saw that even those so-called righteous practitioners had committed countless killings, not to mention the evil practitioners.
The Shadowless Demon Lord walked out step by step. When he reached the exit of the spaceship, he looked back, but unfortunately Chu Fei had ignored him.
When Shadowless Demon Lord finally reunited with his own members and completely separated from the fleet of Shenglong Palace, he watched the fleet begin to speed away and couldn't help but pat his head. He realized that he really missed a good opportunity.
This Shenglong Palace should be a force that attaches great importance to commercial reputation. This kind of force has one thing in common, that is, they attach great importance to reputation. Basically, what the other party says is more credible, even if there is no contract signed.
But it was too late to say anything now. The Shadowless Demon Lord could only take his team away and find a place to stay and recuperate.
Although the eight great demons in the Tribulation Crossing Stage were not dead, four of them were seriously injured. As for the demon sons and grandsons, almost one-third of them were lost.
Fortunately, the Shenglong Palace only wanted intelligence information and some magic skills. These things only needed to be copied, and they didn't need to pay anything. Now the demons still had a lot of resources to recover from their injuries.
But the loss this time was still too great, and the cultivation resources we brought with us were a bit stretched.
The Shadowless Demon Lord looked up again at the rapidly receding fleet of the Shenglong Palace and began to make plans in his mind.
Now it seems that the Shenglong Palace is very similar to those weapon-refining and puppetry sects in the cultivation world. These sects usually have the following characteristics: emphasis on technology, especially technical information, and commercial exchanges; therefore, we should be able to communicate with the Shenglong Palace in the future.
As for this battle, Shadowless Demon Lord also realized that Shenglong Palace was just looking for a force to establish its prestige. As a result, he ran into the tip of Shenglong Palace's knife.
"I have to change my impulsiveness!" Shadowless Demon Lord began to reflect. Practitioners of the magic path generally have short lives. Why? Because impulsiveness is the devil.
Fortunately, Shenglong Palace only wanted to establish its prestige and obtain information, not to kill people, so he still had another chance.
On the other side, after Chu Fei sent away the Shadowless Demon Lord, he said to his left and right: "Don't worry, the other party will come back, and then we will have the initiative.
It doesn’t matter if you don’t come back. Let’s find out what secrets are hidden here.
But before that, we need to find a place to stay and build a base."
This continent is 100,000 kilometers in size, with nine suns flying around in the sky. The environment in most parts of the continent is scorching, and only the edge areas are acceptable.
The Shenglong Palace needs a base that can meet the industrial base. This requires several important elements - abundant exploitable mineral resources, water sources, and stable terrain.
Especially water sources. Shenglongdian's nuclear fusion and cold fusion technologies are becoming more and more mature, and can directly consume water to generate energy.
Although interstellar gas is mainly hydrogen and helium, if it can be collected, it can be directly used for nuclear fusion. However, interstellar gas is too thin. From the perspective of easy collection, the best energy source is actually water.
Recently, there was a sci-fi movie about the world's struggle for water resources, but it mainly used water as a raw material for nuclear fusion, which eventually led to the depletion of hydrogen in the world. Through nuclear fusion, hydrogen is transformed into other elements, which eventually led to a water shortage in the world.
The fleet flew around the edge of the continent, and during this time they also encountered the bases of the Golden Storm Divine Realm and the Yunxu Sect. These two parties arrived early and obviously occupied a good position.
Shenglong Palace did not try to fight for it, but just said hello and walked away.
The war between true gods has not yet begun, and Shenglong Palace has not yet established a base, so it is not appropriate to start a dispute at this time.
After searching for more than two months, the fleet finally found an excellent base. Relying on radar technology and drone technology to scan the continent, they found a place that was better than the three bases.
Well... I can't say it's absolutely excellent. Because the three parties need to consider "spiritual energy" as the energy source for cultivation. Believing in gods also requires spiritual energy. No matter what kind of cultivation system, energy is needed, right?
But Shenglong Temple can produce its own spiritual energy, and now it can even produce its own fairy energy.
On a continent illuminated by nine suns, there is a beautiful basin with mountains and rivers. The inner diameter is more than 3.5 kilometers and the total area is about square kilometers.
This area is not small, it is one-third of the area of the First Empire of the Universe. As a temporary station, it is obviously enough. Not to mention that there are large areas of mines, glaciers, etc. around.
There are many glaciers at the edge of the continent where the sun doesn't shine. The water in the center of the continent evaporates and condenses at the edge. There is also a lot of water in the dust and meteorites that fall from the stars.
As the base began to be built, a large number of robots appeared, including "Lin Yu".
Since such a strong artificial intelligence exists, it would be a waste to make use of it.
In this battle of true gods, Shenglong Temple actually came to conduct scientific research. It is said that there are many traces of the fall of powerful gods here, as well as the so-called traces of creation.
Studying these things is much more interesting than the True God Competition itself.
Time passed little by little, and two years passed in the blink of an eye.
The Shenglong Palace has completely taken root here, and a large number of automatic spacecraft have entered the void. These automatic spacecraft are all produced here and controlled by artificial intelligence.
These spacecraft have two purposes - one is to search for treasures, etc., and the other is to establish communication and reconnaissance networks.
The ruins cover an area of ten light years. If Shenglong Palace wants to explore them quickly, it will have to rely on artificial intelligence technology.
After the automatic spacecraft enters the void, it will replicate itself and release small spacecraft at the same time. The small spacecraft will release probes, and the probes will release swarm drones. Through such a four-level system, an automatic spacecraft only needs ten years to explore a range of hundreds of millions to billions of kilometers.
Ten years is not a long time. According to the Dragon Clan's concept of time, this True God Contest will at least last three to five Dragon Years.
In fact, after Shenglong Palace had been exploring here for ten years, it finally received a communication from the Dragon Clan - the registration for the True God Competition was over, and representatives from all parties were invited to go to the Dragon Clan headquarters to discuss the rules of the competition.
Jiang Hong set off on behalf of Shenglong Temple. Shenglong Temple had purchased the naming rights for this competition, and these matters also needed to be handled by professionals. Jiang Hong, the Minister of Commerce, was the most suitable person.
After Jiang Hong left, everyone was not idle. They continued to explore the surrounding space and explore the Qiyao Continent at the same time.
More than ten years have passed, and the detectors of Shenglong Hall have explored the entire continent more than ten times, but have not found any special traces.
More than a month later, Jiang Hong had arrived at the Dragon Clan headquarters. After the news was passed back to the base, Chu Fei and others gathered again to discuss what to do next.
Through powerful quantum communication technology, Chu Fei and others can communicate in real time with Jiang Hong five light years away.
Jiang Hong "live broadcast" the situation at the Dragon Clan headquarters to Chu Fei and others.
The headquarters is located in the center of the Xuanlong Realm, a supercontinent with a diameter of more than 3200 million kilometers, called the 'Canglong Holy Land'.
The "administrative center" of the dragon clan is the "Holy Sun Palace". This palace complex is not on the ground, but in the sky, and built "on the sun". No, or it should be said that the "Holy Sun Palace" replaced the sun.
Below this palace complex is the projection of the sun, and above it is a huge palace complex.
This can be summed up in four words: above the sun. Or further simplified: above the sun.
The sun in the other world is not a real physical sun, but a product of the condensation of laws. So theoretically, this law can indeed be condensed into a treasure.
Thinking of this, Chu Fei couldn't help but look at the sun outside the window. There are nine suns in the Qiyao Continent, and three can be seen from the window.
Everyone looked at Chu Fei's actions in surprise. Chu Fei said slowly, "Do you think the sun here is similar to the situation in Shengyang Palace? The treasure has always been hanging in front of us.
The sun in the other world is never the real sun, but just a projection of the law, perhaps a projection of the higher dimensional world.
Why are all the powerful people obsessed with controlling the sun of the continent?
According to the legend we have learned, the evil dragon wanted to control the sun of the evil dragon world, but was attacked by the high-ranking members of the major dragon clans. In the end, the evil dragon world collapsed and the evil dragon was killed.
I think there must be some super secret in this sun. The words that come to my mind now are: fragments of heaven, primordial purple air, jade disc of creation, etc. "
Everyone was stunned for a moment, and immediately started a new exploration.
The actions of Shenglong Temple naturally attracted the attention of the other three parties. Seeing a large number of aircraft from Shenglong Temple flying towards the sun, the masters of the three parties immediately took action, and their speed was even faster than that of the drones.
However, after they rushed high into the sky, they passed through the shadow of the sun - the sun was really a projection.
The three masters looked at the flying vehicle of Shenglong Palace.
The same thing happened with these spacecraft, which passed through the sun easily without any changes.
The three masters were a little disappointed and were about to return.
But at this moment, Chu Fei's voice rang out from the communicator that everyone had purchased from Shenglong Palace: "Everyone, we have found the entrance to the treasure. Come down and talk."
The three masters looked at each other and immediately flew towards the Shenglong Palace’s headquarters.
More than ten years have passed, and the three parties have become accustomed to the existence of Sheng Long Temple and understood Sheng Long Temple’s development concept - win-win cooperation.
Shenglong Palace said so and did so. Especially the demons who first turned to Shenglong Palace are now very cool.
The demons offered their magic weapons and technologies, and then they received magic weapons at only one tenth of the price outside;
The demons gave us medicinal seeds and planting techniques, and then we could get medicinal herbs in this ruined world at only one tenth of the price outside.
The demons sent the formula for the elixir, and then they got the elixir or potion at only one tenth of the price outside - especially the potion was cheaper. Although the potion was not as portable as the elixir and had a shorter shelf life, it was more effective.
Although the demons only gave them elixirs and magic weapons that could reach the True Realm, it was enough for them to practice. The demons could also recover by taking a lot of drugs.
The injuries the demons suffered more than ten years ago would normally require them to recuperate for hundreds of years, but now they are full of life.
Recently, the demons have been negotiating with Shenglong Palace regarding magic weapons, medicinal materials, and pills for the tribulation period.
In this almost three-way confrontation, the Yunxu Sect, which practices Taoism, and the Golden Storm Divine Realm, which believes in gods, "cannot help but" be tempted.
After a few visits, everyone gradually became familiar with each other and visited each other.
At this moment, the masters from the three parties hurried over to Chu Fei. Chu Fei greeted them warmly and pointed to the big screen and said, "This is what the drone just discovered, a portal hidden in the sun." (End of this chapter)
