Chapter 254 Alchemy
Inside a huge cave, a giant pyramid building stood quietly.
On the top of the giant pyramid, there was a pearl, or an eye.
A huge black snake wrapped around the pyramid for several weeks, as if it was sleeping.
This was the bloody weird painting mentioned by Wang Tianlang.
It looked a little shocking, and it didn't seem to be weird.
But when Chen Qi stared at the pearl, or the eye, for a long time, he suddenly had an urge to enter the painting and the pyramid.
Fortunately, this feeling was very slight, and Chen Qi could easily get rid of it.
But his current spiritual frequency was as high as 139, so it was no wonder that Wang Tianlang, who was only a high-level extraordinary person, couldn't sleep well.
…
"This seems to be the remains of an ancient civilization?"
"If combined with the medical record report of the mental hospital, this blood painting may not only be a painting, but also a scene witnessed by the painter."
"Perhaps the expedition team that person belongs to accidentally discovered a certain civilization relic under the earth."
Chen Qi made his own guess. This strange painting is indeed a bit special. Perhaps he can use some means to locate it and find the ancient civilization relic again.
But that is also after leaving Shengxian Island.
At this moment, this bloody strange painting is useless, even worse than the charcoal drawing.
"Brother Chen agrees with my judgment, but there are too many pyramid-shaped buildings in ancient civilizations. It is difficult to judge which civilization they belong to."
"If you want to investigate, you probably have to start with that eye or that black snake."
Although he was tortured a little by this strange painting, the excitement flashing in Wang Tianlang's eyes showed that he was quite interested in this ancient civilization relic.
Chen Qi never aims too high or tries to steal someone else's achievements.
He has no interest in treasure hunting and exploration, so he casually returns Journey to the Center of the Earth to Wang Tianlang.
He plans to report the charcoal drawing and the prophecy of destruction to Senior Caroline to improve his contribution.
If he can leave Shengxian Island alive, Chen Qi might really see him at the Tianwu Spell Academy.
…
The rest of the time was just pure chatting.
Out of curiosity, Chen Qi asked about the human settlement on the seaside.
Although it was just some speculation, Chen Qi was always reluctant to get too close to there and remained vigilant.
Wang Tianlang used to work as a security guard in a human settlement and had dealt with other human settlements, so he was the best source of information.
"Brother Chen, the human settlement has been peaceful recently, and everyone has begun to adapt to life on the island."
"Humans' ability to adapt and save themselves is still very strong."
"Although everything is moving in a good direction, I don't know why I always feel a sense of fear."
"This is why I chose to leave the camp and take the risk to join the Sea Kite!"
Chen Qi's inquiry about the human settlement instantly made Wang Tianlang realize that there must be a problem.
This new friend he met is not only powerful, but also overly cautious. He will never ask about the situation of the settlement for no reason.
It seems that his previous feeling was not an illusion, and he made the right choice to leave this time.
"Brother Wang, since you think it is dangerous, it is better to go back there as little as possible in the future."
"I have met the executioner team of the Sword of Judgment before. They told me that it was an alien life that destroyed Coleman's camp."
"Since he can make a move once, it is very likely that he will make a second move."
"So many survivors are simply a plate of fat meat, so attractive!"
Chen Qi spoke the truth and directly pointed out his concerns.
Wang Tianlang is a very good friend. Chen Qi doesn't want to see him next time when there is only a pile of bones left.
…
"So that's it. I didn't expect that the Coleman camp was destroyed by alien life."
"Everyone thought it was a beast tide before!"
"It's a pity that the executioner team and Albert died together."
"Otherwise, they would definitely attack those alien life."
"Brother Chen, although I don't know what form the five alien life in the main task 3 exist in."
"But I am very sure of one thing, intelligent life is the top food in the world, and it is a tribute that even gods would covet!"
"Most of the alien life, even if it comes from the outer ring world, will eat people!"
"Never deal with alien life, and don't believe what they say. That's not seeking the skin of the tiger, but a sheep falling into the tiger's mouth."
When he said the last sentence, Wang Tianlang directly used the secret method to transmit the information, and didn't dare to speak it out loud.
He was speaking from the heart. If Chen Qi hadn't the possibility of evolving into a giant leg, he wouldn't have said so much.
Chen Qi agreed with Wang Tianlang's warning. Those who are not of my kind must have different hearts, not to mention that they may even have different life forms.
But Wang Tianlang's words seemed to mean that he had some understanding of the life forms in the outer ring world.
This is interesting. The Wang family of Langya Pavilion seems to be very unusual.
...
Chen Qi and others waited here for a long time, and in the end only 40 high-level extraordinary people came to join them.
In the evening, the Sea Kite slowly floated from the sky.
It was also the first time that Chen Qi and others knew that this ship sailing in the sea could actually fly, although it flew a little slowly.
After the examiner Wu Xingwu walked out of the Haiyuan, he frowned when he saw the few candidates in front of him.
But the candidates are just candidates after all, and their Tianwu Conjuration Academy doesn't bother to force them.
Since others are unwilling to join the Haiyuan, they can only bear the consequences.
"Get on the boat first, I will tell you the specific reason later!"
"But I won't let you do anything too dangerous. Instead, there will be an opportunity waiting for you."
Wu Xingwu nodded with satisfaction after seeing Chen Qi. This guy finally knew that he wanted to go to the academy, so he wasn't too stupid.
Although the perfume that I contributed before caused a little trouble, the academy is still reasonable. This kind of thing can't be blamed on Chen Qi.
But more or less, those junior students who lost their friends still had some grudges in their hearts.
But this is not something Wu Xingwu can handle. This is a matter of people's hearts and can only be faced by the parties involved.
…
"Hey, it turned out to be the center of attention!"
As soon as Chen Qi boarded the Haiyuan, he felt the gaze of dozens of eyes.
But this is not respect and warm welcome, but the eyes are full of coldness.
As for the reason, Chen Qi had some guesses.
It was nothing more than the perfume he contributed, which not only attracted the grass-returning elixir, but also attracted a wave of monsters, thus causing a wave of damage.
If that's the case, then those who can cultivate themselves into extraordinary beings are all smart people, and they are not ignorant.
But why did Chen Qi not participate in the arrest?
This gave many students some ideas.
They had to wonder if Chen Qi had known that it would attract monsters, so he did not participate in the capture of Cao Huan Dan.
This suspicion is very reasonable, and Chen Qi seems to be unable to refute it.
But with all his conscience, Chen Qi really didn't know that the perfume had some side effects.
How could he have known that Biochemical Dao also conducted a series of other experiments after capturing Cao Huan Dan.
If Chen Qi had known that monsters would be attracted, he would have warned him.
…
With no other choice, Chen Qi no longer restrained his aura the moment he boarded the ship.
After feeling Chen Qiyi's aura, everyone on the Haiyuan changed their colors, even the three examiners.
"How is it possible? Such powerful spiritual energy fluctuations, such powerful spirituality!"
"Second spiritual sublimation, junior Chen Qi has actually achieved the second spiritual sublimation!"
"It's unbelievable, it's really unbelievable. It's only been more than a month since the last training session."
Candidates at the same time as Chen Qi only felt his unparalleled powerful spiritual power.
The old students of Tianwu Conjuration Academy sensed the unique spirituality of Chen Qi's second spiritual sublimation.
This is a bit too exaggerated.
Candidates who can rely on the secret method of spiritual sublimation to be promoted to controllers are already considered to have good foundation.
But they had not yet officially joined the academy, and they had not received formal education, so they completed their second spiritual sublimation in just over a month.
Is this something humans can do?
Especially the old students who have also experienced the second spiritual sublimation, they are more aware of the dangers and difficulties of this level.
You must know that they were promoted under the protection of the academy's magic circle.
The person in front of me in Shengxian Island does not receive such treatment.
…
"I was busy with the second spiritual sublimation and couldn't fight side by side with everyone. I'm really sorry!"
"But the opportunity was so rare that I couldn't miss it. Fortunately, I succeeded."
"My friend Yang Jichang also died in the hands of those monsters. I feel the same as everyone else."
"But if I have the chance, I will definitely kill those monsters and avenge my dead classmates!"
Chen Qi was extremely sincere and the explanation he gave was so powerful that everyone could fully understand and accept it.
It turns out that the reason why this person did not participate in the arrest was because he was busy with his second spiritual sublimation.
If they think about it from another perspective, when the opportunity comes, they will make the same choice.
As for what kind of opportunity made Chen Qi suddenly become a spiritual sublimator for the second time, everyone had a tacit understanding and did not ask.
This belongs to the practitioner's personal privacy and cannot be violated.
There are so many opportunities on this Immortal Island, so it's not surprising that some people are a little lucky.
There are even many candidates who are already looking forward to the opportunity and their strength has improved by leaps and bounds.
…
"Yes, I really saw the right person!"
"After the second sublimation of spirituality, the aura is not empty. This is not just a matter of chance, but the foundation itself is extremely profound."
"It seems that our luck has not reached rock bottom. Although we have been exiled to Shengxian Island, we have also recruited a little genius."
Compared to ordinary old students of Tianwu Conjuration Academy, as the examiner, Caroline can naturally see more.
She looked at Wu Xingwu proudly, as if she had a better vision.
Wu Xingwu nodded in surprise. Before Chen Qi released his aura, he didn't even realize that this guy had completed his second spiritual sublimation.
It seemed that I had underestimated this guy before and was careless.
"Yes, although this increase in strength is insignificant, it at least boosts morale!"
"Although Shengxian Island is dangerous, it also has many opportunities. We all have opportunities."
Wei Qingran didn't care about Chen Qi's promotion. He was just a second spiritual sublimator. Except for his own extra means of survival, it did not help the overall situation.
But what is visible to the naked eye is that the originally low morale of the candidates and students has reversed.
Everyone saw a little hope again.
Since Chen Qi could improve his strength so quickly by relying on the opportunities on the island, naturally they can too.
So the way they looked at Chen Qi instantly changed 180 degrees, becoming much more enthusiastic and eager.
Naturally, Chen Qi integrated into the Haiyuan collective.
…
"You guys really didn't lie before, and the prophecy of the camp's destruction turned out to be true."
"But I feel that what you just said is a bit vague."
"You definitely didn't take part in the action not just because you were busy with spiritual advancement, but because you were cowardly!"
Rather mysteriously, Selina appeared in front of Chen Qi.
Chen Qi just glanced at this person helplessly, acting extremely calm from beginning to end.
Chen Qi had long been mentally prepared for meeting Selena on the Haiyuan.
The only thing that puzzled Chen Qi was, is there really no problem with Selena herself?
Otherwise, how could she dare to appear in front of the three examiners and even sneak into the Haiyuan.
"I told you, I just heard the prophecy coming from the wind!"
"As for whether the prophecy comes true, you should have more say than me now."
"Selena, what happened on the night of the blood moon? What kind of weird life was it that ate the orcs and humans until they were left with only a piece of skin?"
Without being polite, Chen Qi asked directly.
Selina, who has had contact with the murderer and may even have collaborated with him, cannot possibly not know the answer to this question.
Anyway, Chen Qi was so confident, and he didn't feel guilty or afraid at all.
…
"I don't know what happened that night very clearly."
"I am absolutely telling the truth. The situation at that time was too confusing and weird."
"After the danger appeared, that bastard Coleman ran away without any responsibility, and I left the camp."
"Later I found out that it was one of the five alien beings that attacked the camp that night."
"That's all I know!"
Selena did not avoid Chen Qi's questions, and everything she said was true.
But she will definitely not say the most important thing.
Chen Qi complained in his heart that Selena was indeed a thief, but it was impossible for him to force Selena to ask, have you really never seen that alien life?
Chen Qi is not stupid.
Doing so will only make Selina find herself doubting her.
Even when they were face to face at this time, Chen Qi did not find anything unusual in Selena.
Is there really nothing wrong with Selena now?
Inadvertently, Chen Qi's eyes fell on Selena's crystal ball.
This thing must be Selina's psychic thing. Unexpectedly, Selina was promoted to the controller and used the secret method of spiritual sublimation from the Tianwu Conjuration Academy.
But the crystal ball turned purple. Is it because it changed color after channeling?
…
During the next chat with Selina, Chen Qi finally found out how she got into the Haiyuan.
Unexpectedly, she also provided information about the sacred tree and the grass returning pill.
According to Selina, she found a portrait of the sacred tree in a laboratory.
It was a big tree made of flesh and blood, with jade dolls hanging on it.
It was with this contribution that she once again gained the trust of the examiners.
As for why Yu Haonan didn't appear on the Haiyuan in the first place, Selina also gave the answer.
"Damn Coleman, he's really crazy!"
"On the second day after the blood moon, when we returned to the camp, he actually attacked us candidates directly."
"If I hadn't been lucky, I might have fallen into his clutches just like Yu Haonan."
"That old guy is conducting human experiments, and Brut and the others have become his accomplices and lackeys."
"I once went to rescue Yu Haonan with Examiner Wu Xingwu, but unfortunately no trace of Coleman and others was found."
"Yu Haonan, Brut and the others are probably in danger."
When she said this, Selina's eyes were actually wet.
Chen Qi didn't know whether it was because of the superb acting skills of the person in front of her, or because she was really overflowing with sympathy.
But he was certain that Selena did not tell lies.
Chen Qi's talent for sensing heavenly secrets was not touched at all.
But Selena’s story is definitely not the whole story. This is the art of speaking.
In the final analysis, judging whether the other party is lying is just a matter of judging whether the information given by the other party is true or false.
But the fragmented truth is no less deceptive than lies.
…
The chat between Chen Qi and Selina ended here.
As the Haiyuan landed in the second ring area, Caroline and three other examiners appeared in front of them again.
This is obviously a task to be arranged.
"Everyone, the reason why we are all summoned here this time is because there is an important matter that requires everyone to work together."
"The mission to rescue Senior Sister Feng has finally made a breakthrough."
"We have already made direct contact with Senior Sister Feng. Next, we only need to construct the life replacement array according to the drawings given by Senior Sister Feng, and we can free Senior Sister Feng from the trouble."
"Because time is tight and the task is heavy, I can only trouble everyone."
Senior Caroline announced the good news to everyone with a happy face. Although everyone present did not cheer, they still looked excited.
Everything is indeed getting better, and everyone finally has hope.
"There are two main types of tasks ahead."
"One is material collection, and the other is array refining."
"We are mainly responsible for material collection. After all, it is too dangerous outside, and the concentration of spiritual energy is too high, which is not suitable for everyone to move."
"As for array refining, it is very simple. It has been divided into many parts. Just follow the steps."
"Since the life replacement array involves alchemy, some knowledge in this area will be taught to you in advance."
"These are the knowledge provided by Senior Sister Feng. She is a master in this area."
"And Senior Sister Feng knows not only ordinary alchemy, but also life alchemy. If you perform well, you may not be appreciated by Senior Sister Feng."
Caroline's skill in drawing big cakes is getting more and more sophisticated, but it must be said that the candidates present are just eating this.
Even Chen Qi, after hearing that he could learn alchemy for free, also became interested in working.
If he could get life alchemy, it would be even better.
As early as when he was in Lan Yu Country, he was envious.
