Chapter 7 Source of Life Chapter 45: Surprise Discovery
This oval scale is more than ten kilometers long and wide, and its thickest part is over 800 meters thick, even after being compressed and shrunk.
Xu Jingming looked at some of the subtle structures of the scales.
He was unable to peek into the core of the 'source of basic life structure' and could only see some superficial aspects.
"Too perfect." Xu Jingming watched, "The shallowest structure of the scales is so perfect."
This most superficial structure is much more perfect than the life structure of the tenth-order source life that he has been studying.
Its structure is like a huge and strict army! Countless parts work together perfectly. This kind of "perfection" makes Xu Jingming feel suffocated. He looks up and understands in his heart... These are some characteristics of high-dimensional life.
“A glimpse of the leopard through the tube can reveal a lot.”
Xu Jingming also understood that what he had seen was only the tip of the iceberg. From this, we can see how complex the "life structure" of high-dimensional life forms is. No wonder it is so rare for human races to reach the highest level in history.
As time went by, Xu Jingming gained insight into more and more information, even peering through the shallow layers to see deeper levels.
“Shhhhh.”
Xu Jingming's eyes turned into vertical pupils, and a layer of black scales began to appear on the surface of his skin.
"Huh?" Xu Jingming woke up immediately, controlling his own life structure. The black scales on the surface of his skin dissipated, and his eyes returned to normal.
Xu Jingming didn't care at all, because the database of Yuanchu Research Institute had long recorded that if you come into contact with a higher dimension, you will also be affected by it. The source of Xu Jingming's evolution method was the higher-dimensional life 'Sky Python', so it was naturally easy to be affected by the scales of the Sky Python.
"I was affected simply by being obsessed with observation. However, the rulers of the Prison Clan directly integrated higher-dimensional objects into their bodies." Xu Jingming sighed secretly. No matter how crazy he was, he would not dare to integrate the scales of the Heavenly Python into his body.
If he really integrated into it, he would probably lose control himself.
"Collect." Xu Jingming waved his hand and directly put the scales of the Heavenly Python into the micro-subsidiary space carried by the No. 9 Yuanchu battle suit. The micro-subsidiary space is a spherical space with a diameter of more than 30,000 kilometers. Even if the scales of the Heavenly Python are not compressed, they can be collected.
Of course, there are very few tenth-order source life forms that possess such a huge auxiliary space.
"It is hidden in the auxiliary space of the Yuanchu battle suit, so you can observe and understand it at any time." Xu Jingming's spiritual power can easily penetrate into it.
"go back."
Xu Jingming traveled through time and space in one step and returned to the distant Black Iron Star.
Black Iron Star is the garrison base of him, Senior Brother Jian, and Senior Brother Yijiu. It needs to be kept confidential and it is not appropriate to tell Senior Brother Saka and Mr. Lan Xie.
…
The 'Yuanxing Civilization', one of the three most advanced civilizations of mankind in the universe
Luna Star lived in seclusion here.
He was young, and after reaching the tenth level he was still in the accumulation stage, and had not been sent to the front line.
“Finally got it.”
Luna was in a large laboratory underground on the planet. He looked at the black mask in front of him with some excitement. There was an inlaid groove on the forehead of the mask. "I actually found the carrier of this mask."
A strange crystal slowly emerged between Luna Xing's eyebrows, and the black mask also flew up, actively greeting the crystal.
When the crystal flew into the inlay groove, the black light on the entire surface of the mask increased greatly, emitting a strong dark aura.
"call."
A black mask was placed on Luna Star's face and blended into his skin.
"Master, I finally found the carrier of the mask, and the auxiliary ability has been fully restored." A surprised voice sounded in Luna Xing's mind.
"I actually got a complete set of the Twelve Masks of Darkness." Luna Xing was excited. "Legend has it that in the distant past, there was a Supreme Realm 'Mother of Darkness' who wanted to cultivate source life, so she created twelve masks, each with a magical effect. However, mankind has experienced many catastrophes, and history has been broken many times. The Supreme Realms of the ancient times died one by one, and only two of the twelve masks are still passed down. One is passed down on an isolated island in time and space, and the other is passed down in the royal family of the Abyss Civilization."
"I didn't expect that by chance, I would be able to collect a complete dark mask."
Luna Star was excited.
He was gifted in his evolution, but he was able to achieve what he has today because of a chance encounter when he was young, where he got the core of the mask by chance on an indigenous planet. However, without the "mask carrier", the core could only exert less than 10% of its effectiveness.
Only with a carrier can it function fully.
"With a complete dark mask, I will be able to borrow higher-dimensional power, right?" Luna Xing asked.
"Master, I am best at the dark direction. The dark chapter in the core chapter is naturally the most consistent with the "Yuanchu Star Hypothesis". With the master's accumulation of the tenth level, I believe that the master will be able to borrow high-dimensional power soon." The dark mask responded.
The core nine chapters of Yuanchuxing conjecture, Xu Jingming got the inheritance of the light chapter! Lunaxing got the inheritance of the darkness chapter!
Yuanchu Star, in addition to its light side, also has a dark side. Xu Jingming realized this as early as the eighth-level starry sky life stage.
"The Mother of Darkness is, after all, the first level of high-dimensional life. It is far inferior to the Dean." Luna Xing thought, "The Twelve Masks of Darkness and the numbered Yuanchu Battle Suit created by the Dean are also one level lower."
"However, if a complete dark mask is exchanged for merits, it would cost at least 500 million merits."
"With it, I have a better chance of ascending the throne."
“After ascending the throne, I will have more resources and a better chance of impacting the cosmic legend.” Luna Xing is equally ambitious.
In terms of talent, he seems to be very high, but he is far inferior to Xu Jingming, Chi Meng and others. This is based on the premise that he received the help of the "Dark Mask Core" very early. If there is no such help, it will take several times longer .
Therefore, Luna Star is very self-aware and must rely on external forces to make himself go faster.
…
On this day, the Eternal Learning Tower delivered items one by one to various places. The three most powerful forces and the Universal Human Alliance would exchange merits regularly and distribute some items, so that the human strongmen could hopefully master stronger power and go further on the road of evolution.
However, even with the help of many external objects, there are very few cosmic legends about the birth of the human race.
Years go by.
Xu Jingming focused on every aspect of the evolutionary path, and only when a mission came would he set out immediately to carry it out.
Because of his intimidation, the Prison Clan only stayed in some remote areas and occasionally carried out small-scale robberies. Those places were too remote, and it would take Xu Jingming a long time to get there.
Medium to large-scale robberies are the main strategy of the Prison Clan.
"A medium-to-large-scale robbery, dozens of teams, attacking hundreds of places at the same time. And I could only intercept one place."
36 years after the exchange of merits in the Eternal Learning Tower, Xu Jingming was standing above a life planet that had turned into ruins. His light enveloped the planet and burned the Prison Clan Lord to death.
The Prison Clan usually acted alone, so Xu Jingming could only kill one at a time. It was rare that he would encounter two or three of them acting together.
"The Prison Clan has become more cunning, and their raids have been shorter. They only take away the most valuable items and then flee immediately." Xu Jingming thought, "I only have time to intercept them once in each raid."
After understanding Xu Jingming's methods, the Prison Clan naturally changed.
With hundreds of places being robbed at the same time, Xu Jingming could only kill in one place, so the impact would be much smaller.
The Prison Clan became more cautious! This made the efficiency of the tenth-order source life and the ninth-order source life teams of the human race very low. Fortunately, there were enough human source life, scattered in various places, and if they met one close by, they could still be successfully killed.
"call."
The first wave of action, the second wave, the third wave, the fourth wave, the fifth wave...
Because the losses were small, the Prison Clan continued to loot. The teams that suffered certain losses retreated, while the teams that did not suffer losses continued to loot.
The humans were also trying to ambush them, but they would also encounter the ruler of the Prison Clan, so naturally there would be casualties.
“It’s the 79th wave.”
Xu Jingming was in the starry sky, patiently waiting for the next wave of orders.
"This has lasted for 79 waves, which means that some prison clan teams have carried out 79 consecutive waves of looting, and the losses they have suffered are very small, and they are still continuing to loot." Xu Jingming had no idea what to do. This is what medium to large-scale looting is like.
"Although plundering thousands of life planets is like a drop of water in the ocean for the entire Tianmang universe. However, it is a catastrophe for those planets." Xu Jingming still worked very hard.
He tried his best in every mission and rushed to it as quickly as possible.
He tried to find ways to intimidate the Prison Clan, and achieved a certain effect. Now, the three universe domains bordering the Prison Clan have been looted to a lesser extent by about one third compared to before Xu Jingming arrived.
"There is another mission." Xu Jingming waited there for more than an hour and suddenly received another mission.
The Prison Clan is carrying out the 80th wave of looting.
There is a period of time between each wave of looting. On the one hand, the Prison Clan needs to hurry on their journey, and on the other hand, it is also to allow the spacecraft to cool down so that they can escape faster.
“Whoosh.”
After all, Xu Jingming has been intercepting and killing at the border for more than a hundred years, and he is very skilled.
First, he traveled through time and space to a location a few light years away from his destination, and then he used the "High Dimensional Walk" to get close to his target. Xu Jingming was cautious when he used the "High Dimensional Walk" every time to prevent an ambush from the Prison Clan.
In fact...
The Prison Clan has ambushed many times, trying to remove Xu Jingming! But they failed every time. Xu Jingming was very cautious. He would turn around and leave when he found danger while walking in a high-dimensional way.
"Um?"
This time, when Xu Jingming was walking in a high dimension and observing in a high dimension, the universe within a range of 15.2 light years was like a model. Xu Jingming did not find the ambush of the Prison Clan, but found a strange scene.
“Wow——”
He first descended, enveloped by endless light, skillfully burned a prison clan lord to death, and collected the spoils. After that, Xu Jingming immediately performed high-dimensional walking, broke free from the constraints of this universe and time, and entered the high-dimensional space.
"What is that?"
Xu Jingming stared at one place.
The universe within a range of 15.2 light years is like a model, but this model is vaguely connected to a space-time. Xu Jingming can only see the connection from a high-dimensional observation, and the connected "space-time" is vague and unclear.
"The normal universe space-time is connected to a small space-time?" Xu Jingming was surprised. "High-dimensional observation can only see the connection?"
"Master, that is a subsidiary universe." Xiao Jiu said in surprise, "And I didn't see any high-dimensional gates. It should be an ownerless subsidiary universe."
