Chapter 435
Tree Shade Shelter, after the battle.
The catastrophic hail of thunderstorms has disappeared for a while now. The outside of the city was a complete mess, blown by the impact of that thunderstorm. Fortunately, the thirty-meters high wall served as a barrier, blocking the impact of the aftershocks so that the city’s buildings were still intact.
Standing on the wall, Yan Dingtian held his head high and looked down at the hunters who were in shock, waving his hand to show that the battle was over.
The hunters below did not react. They were not sure what was happening.
At first, there was a suffocating aura, and then there was bright starlight and thunderbolt. It’s as if the world is coming to an end.
One cannot expect a group of hunters, averaging at level six or seven, to see the actions of the Transcendent – those with even lower strength were either dumbfounded or stunned.
A little over two hours later, the fleet of airplanes returned.
The seven planes converged together. The hunters, who were still a bit confused, slowly realized that their main fleet managed to return safely to Tree Shade, and that was the sign that Tree Shade had won this battle. Then, one of the hunters let out a loud cheer, followed by another, and another filling the area with such a triumphant roar.
When Tang Yu stepped down from the airplane, his heart was also quite emotional. He was waving and nodding, with his head held high.
Then at the corner of his eyes, the system’s information popped out.
‘What’s this?’
……
“A spatial stone, supplemented by countless precious materials, and then inscribed by three master runes, 27 high-level runes, 149 intermediate runes, 1449 primary runes, const.i.tute an array of runes…
Also, need a large amount of human blood as a guide, and then through a special method, can open the spatial channel …… and this channel has restrictions, through the channel, whether human or object, the higher the energy level, the more unstable the channel will become, possibly making the spatial channel to collapse ……”
Tang Yu mulled over.
The abyssal rift was almost everywhere, and the demonic beasts’ number seemed to be endless.
… And this alien technology, the spatial stone… consists of several rift crystals.
— In other words, the rift crystals are just a fragment… And then there were some other precious materials, some of which Tang Yu never see before
“This is good. The alien tribe should have sent materials and some of the weaker clansmen to the Earth first…… or these materials are simply found on the Earth. Now they have no more materials to construct the channel. Most of their elite clansmen also died during this battle, and the two tribes shouldn’t be able to wage war against humanity for a while……
The only thing is that the Earth… origin planet, there are hundreds of foreigners or alien lifeforms if every one of those alien race has 10 transcendents, that is a thousand transcendents that we have to deal with, and with the pa.s.sage of time, the world barriers will be weakened, the s.p.a.ce channel is constantly reinforced, the transcendents that arrive on Earth will be more and more powerful.”
Thinking about it, it’s terrifying.
This time alone, the two tribes joined forces. If not for the fact that the Tree Shade had concealed their trump card from their enemies, the battle would be much harder and at best, what Tree Shade can do during that time is to repel them, not annihilate them just like today. Once they were targeted by a dozen transcendents that knew about Tree Shade’s secret weapons, that… would be a problem.
“Moreover, according to the information we know so far, these aliens should be following the orders of the ‘master’, the ‘master’ should be some existence of unimaginable strength, and these foreigners, perhaps can only be considered as servant race? “
Tang Yu could only guess like this. However, the more he thought about it, the more powerful he felt the enemy was.
‘But the more you understand about your enemies, the more you find out how terrifying your enemies are.’
Shaking his head, Tang Yu sifted through the s.p.a.ce stone and other materials and stored them separately.
Tang Yu no longer had the energy to think about future fights against the alien race. Tonight was a truly tiring night. His nerves were tense, he had not needed to sleep for a long time, but today, he changed his clothes and fell into bed, then fell into a deep sleep.
……
The blue dome of the sky, countless picturesque scenery reflected.
The number of lush greenery as far as the eye can see, each one was comparable to a twenty-story building, huge, with its the branches spread out, above the leaves droplets of water reflected the sunlight, shining like a crystal, look closely, some of the giant trees were also built on the exquisite treehouse.
Birds and animals were flying.
The picture was infinitely far away again.
Tang Yu saw the divine mountain plunging into the sky, saw the city suspended in the air, and through the reflection of the sky, it was as if he saw countless worlds.
But he did not know when, the reflection on the sky tinted with a layer of blinding red, one by one disappeared.
Giant trees withered, sacred mountains collapsed, and floating cities fell…
Tang Yu woke up, his eyelids slowly pulled open. The warm sunlight spilled through the floor-to-ceiling windows and onto the bed. He woke up with a clear consciousness, feeling in a better state than ever.
“Strange…it seems like a dream, an incomparably magnificent world …… but I can’t remember.”
Shaking off his head, Tang Yu lifted his body straight up, sitting cross-legged on the bed, propping up his chin, and pondered for a while. He decided to brush his teeth and wash his face first, then eat, then cultivate.
He must make up for the missing practice last night.
The lord of Tree Shade was so diligent.
……
After devouring two bowls of crystal corn into his stomach, Tang Yu pushed open the door of the second cultivation room.
The source qi like silk and mist filled the air, and the whole person seemed to be soaking in the coolest spring water, soothing beyond compare.
Cultivation has initially been a pleasant thing, source Qi flowing throughout the body, every cell was nourished, with the benefits of relieving fatigue, toning the body, relaxing muscles, and so on.
Tang Yu chose the salted fish pose as a cultivation posture – this method does not have rigid requirements, as long as the absorption of external source gas and control of the source of energy in the body was perfect, everyone could do it, whether standing, sitting, lying, or other 18+ postures, it doesn’t matter.
Breathe in.
Source Qi entered his body, flowing throughout his system, a wisp by wisp refining.
Then he realized something, “Refining speed, it seems… much faster?”
He was not sure if it was just his mind playing a trick on him or not, so he continued to absorb and refine the source qi.
A few moments later, his eyes opened, “The speed of absorption and refinement has become faster when the source power flows. It is also smoother than usual …… as if the qualifications have improved. The magnitude is not small, and my cultivation efficiency has increased by at least 20%.”
Qualifications couldn’t be upgraded for no reason, and again he did not do anything. Yesterday morning he cultivated with the same method, and it didn’t happen like this.
Although it feels like he did wake up in a twice as good state this morning after sleeping.
“Status?”
Tang Yu rubbed his chin and fell into deep thought.
…..
“After getting the system, my qualifications are linked to my territory level, and under a level six territory, it’s not bad. It’s considered a weak A grade.”
Tang Yu had talked and explored with Elaine and other followers before, and there was a measurement standard.
[D-level qualifications for source qi (including the absorption of other agents), the utilization conversion rate was often only 20-30%.]
[C-level qualifications are around 40%-50%.]
[B-level 60%-70%.]
[A grade 80%-90%.]
As for the S grade qualification, that was on another completely different level, having reached the level of “the sea of Qi has grown up and learned to cultivate on its own”.
This was only the gap in the absorption and utilization of energy.
Tang Yu roughly calculated, “My cultivation efficiency has been close to Elaine.”
This was a very considerable improvement.
It meant that he could cultivate faster to the Grand Perfection of the Awakening Stage and even break through to Transcendence more smoothly. It was just that this cultivation speed came in a bit of a daze…
He did not continue to cultivate and looked for Elaine and Nancy.
……
The two transcendent, they have recovered from their injuries.
Elaine was basically cultivating the rest of the time except for work, and Nancy, needless to say, her sea of Qi was running on its own twenty-four hours.
“My cultivation speed has also increased, by about 5.615% ……”
Elaine thought for half a second and gave him the answer.
The corner of Tang Yu’s mouth twitched as he looked at Nancy.
Only to see her tilt her head and stretch out a finger, two fingers, three fingers, “It’s like three…five…seven …… No, I can’t count it!”
Tang Yu’s palm covered his face.
After leaving, he asked others one after another… However, none of them had their speed of cultivation increased.
“That is, only I, Elaine, and Nancy had changed, and the change was just after last night, then… it must be related to the aliens!”
Yesterday, not only they killed a dozen transcendents, but they also uprooted the two clans.
“If you think about it, it seems that after the “Endless Thunder” killed several Transcendents, there were some vague changes.”
Tang Yu was not too sure. After all, the battle was tense at that time.
And later, after the extermination of the two clans, the change seemed to be a bit more obvious.
“Perhaps… this is a reward?”
The abnormal growth of a hunter was caused by the fact that they could absorb the energy of their defeated enemies, they could absorb and refine soul power, and in the early stage, this was much faster than the speed of cultivation improvement.
And by now, Tang Yu has gradually ignored the existence of soul power – after all, it is almost useless to him at this stage.
Coupled with what the alien said that the origin star was relatively special …… Perhaps, the increase in cultivation speed was the reward for the extermination of the two tribes last night. He didn’t know if this enhancement was permanent or had a time-limited nature. Tang Yu could only extend today’s cultivation time, from five hours…to six hours.
……
Another two hours of cultivation.
The nightmare puppet No.1 that he sent out has arrived at the Mirage Mountain Range.
Tang Yu stopped his cultivation, shifted his sight to the Nightmare puppet, and entered the possession state.
The overlapping shadows of the endless mountain ranges were still reflected in the sky near King City. The nearest transit station to the entrance of the Mirage Mountain Range had been made into a steel fortress. The scattered hunters who were active in this area are few and far between.
The mirage mountain range has countless treasures, including awakening fruits, liquefied source power springs, and rumors of the existence of ancient relics, and the first hunter who broke into the mirage mountain range had harvested a lot of it. Still, with the outermost periphery being cared for by countless hunters, slightly valuable herbs were uprooted.
If you want to have a harvest, you must continue to go deeper, but the inner circle of the Mirage Mountain Range was full of danger.
The hunter who breaks into the inner circle could be described as a person who dug his own grave. Even the officials of King City had given up exploring the Mirage Mountain Range.
But not Tang Yu.
Initially, he and Nancy went deep into the Mirage View Mountain Range, Nancy’s strength was strong, and this duo successfully explored those areas that were equally dangerous to the foreign beasts. However, Nancy’s transcendent aura was too strong, no matter how much she tried to control and converge it, and the alien transcendents were sensitive enough to sense her aura and already fled.
The exploration was harsh and tiring. After a difficult time to reach the entrance to the mountain range nearest to a palace complex, they initially thought it to be an intact building, but instead, they found the remnants of that palace. A Ruin, but they also did not find any valuable clues.
Later, when they continued to explore deeper, they even ran into a Transcendent Mortal second-order beast. After the two of them escaped through a return scroll, following their heart’s choice, Tang Yu gave up exploring the Mirage Mountain Range.
“Nightmare’s strength is not as strong as Nancy’s, but the body of the puppet and its aura can be concealed easily. They could also shuttle through virtual and reality. I have enhanced their concealment ability to the maximum level; if I use them to explore that mountain range, I might be able to venture deeper and unearth the secret of origin star. Even when it encounters some dangerous high-leveled beast, the nightmare puppet’s ability to escape was far beyond me and Nancy’s, although if the escape plan failed, the nightmare puppet might be destroyed, at least the human who controlled it is safe.”
Thinking about this, Tang Yu controlled the nightmare puppet, entered the shallow illusory s.p.a.ce, kept a faint shadow, and flew into the mountain range.
Along the way, he maintained a speed that was not too fast or too slow.
Flying over the black swamp, the broken stone forest, the mirror lake, the Elephant Trunk Mountain …… Soon, the nightmare puppet flew to the palace complex that had been turned into ruins and flew straight to the depths of the mountain range.
n.o.body knew how big the inner complex of this mountain range was.
During this time, the nightmare puppet also attracted the attention of some transcendent beasts. Still, Tang Yu controlled the nightmare puppet and immediately disappeared into deep illusory s.p.a.ce to avoid unnecessary battles.
After flying for several hours, Tang Yu could not find anything, and was already a bit impatient, and did not feel comfortable letting the Nightmare puppet explore on its own.
BOOM…!!!
A powerful energy fluctuation came from the distance.
Tang Yu hesitated for a moment and controlled the nightmare puppet to fly carefully.
After ambling behind a hill, the nightmare, which was semi-illusory, looked into the distance.
Endless energy light overflowed, the Earth crumbled, trees and rocks broken into pieces, and in the very center of the explosion, a staggered palace, standing here.
Seemingly covered in a thin layer of light barrier, the buildings were firmly protected.
It was an intact relic!
Nightmare puppet’s eyes glowed, then looked at the front of the palace.
A group of humanoid-type mouths occupied most of the monster’s face and were constantly bombarding the light barrier of the palace.
‘That aura… It was an alien race!’
