Chapter 268: Immortal Illumination Sutra

"Old Sa, what happened just now?"

"I felt confused, and when I came to my senses, everything was over."

"Not only did the superpower messenger disappear, but the seven ordinary people with superpowers also turned into charcoal."

"What happened?"

Ma Junze whispered in front of Sadro, his eyes drifting to the captain who was standing in front of the seven charcoal statues.

In fact, he already knew the answers to some things in his heart, but he just didn't want to admit it and didn't dare to believe it.

It was because the truth was too desperate and suffocating.

...

"Old Ma, I'm the same as you. I don't know anything when I'm confused."

"But as long as you use your brain, you will know that it was the captain who took action."

"Before, I just thought that the captain was lucky, so he was two steps ahead of us."

"Now it seems that we really overestimated ourselves."

"The captain's strength is probably no worse than those old students."

"He hasn't even entered the school yet!"

Sadro looked at Chen Qi's back with infinite admiration. Is this the gap between himself and the genius?

There was no hope of catching up, and instead a feeling of powerlessness enveloped his heart.

…

"What are you two mumbling about? Let's go and take a look!"

"Look at this situation, the captain has killed all the archaea."

"After being parasitized by these archaea, I don't know what happened to those ordinary people!"

Compared to Ma Junze and Sadro, Hu Jinyong didn't think so much.

As the controller of the second spiritual sublimation, isn't it normal for the captain to settle all this?

Anyway, the controller itself is very powerful, and it is very normal for the captain to be a little stronger. What's so shocking?

Under the leadership of Hu Jinyong, Ma Junze and the others also came to the seven black charcoal statues.

Looking at the previous opponents who turned out to be like this now, the three of them felt a little regretful.

…

"Any power beyond one's control will come at a price."

"These people will turn into charcoal, which is the price they pay for their superpowers."

"Their spirituality, their life source, has been devoured by the archaea, so they have turned into a pile of inorganic matter."

"After the archaea merged with human spirituality, they can actually help humans release the power of [roots]. It's really a bit amazing."

Chen Qi explained to Hu Jinyong and the other two while studying the seven carbonized human bodies.

They also put in a lot of effort in the battle just now, so they have to pay some appearance fees.

…

"Captain, this archaea can actually help ordinary people release the power of [roots]. This is incredible!"

"No wonder those ordinary people can mobilize spiritual energy."

"This archaea is so magical that it is absolutely impossible to remain unknown."

"If an ambitious person masters it, it will definitely cause a huge storm."

After listening to Chen Qi's explanation, Sadro was thoughtful.

This thing that can allow ordinary people to master extraordinary power is absolutely priceless.

It's a pity that the captain killed them too cleanly, otherwise he could have collected some spores.

…

"Don't think too much, this thing is not something we can get involved in."

"This Supreme Old Fungus has another name, that is the famous Immortal Emperor Fungus."

"The Immortal Empire back then was the first to be attacked by the World Government."

"We all have a bright future, don't make mistakes!"

As the captain, Chen Qi felt that he still needed to remind Hu Jinyong and the other two.

Of course, if they didn't listen, then Chen Qi could only admire them for seeking their own death.

These archaea are a kind of collective life form. If they were not controlled by others, they might have been able to get some wool.

But now, if you really collect some spores, it would be like putting a bunch of time bombs in your arms.

That's what Chen Qi doesn't do.

…

"These archaea are the legendary Immortal Emperor Fungus?"

"No wonder it's so magical!"

The moment they learned the truth about the archaea, the eyes of the three were extremely hot.

But soon, Chen Qi's words were like a basin of cold water, waking them up.

Alas, they are really too greedy!

They are not even the controllers, but they want to get the treasure of the Immortal Emperor Bacteria.

The captain is right, this kind of thing is not something they can get their hands on.

...

"Hu Jinyong, Ma Junze, Sadro, all the archaea in the camp have been killed by me, and the next thing is up to you."

"After these ordinary people were parasitized by archaea, although they are not dead yet, they have only a few years left to live."

"What's more vicious is that once ordinary people are parasitized by archaea, they can no longer complete spiritual awakening."

"Of course, this is not important for these guys in the camp."

"Next, you will control this place well and wait for the call of the Sea Kite."

"As for me, I have some other things to do."

"Coleman has been in the outer ring area for so long, maybe there are other laboratories left, I plan to investigate."

Since the occupation of the gathering place has been completed, Chen Qi certainly does not plan to waste time here.

The seniors were in charge of large gathering places, so it was impossible for them to be as clean and efficient as Chen Qi and his team.

Even if they could handle large gathering places, they still needed to complete the aftermath before they could move.

The time left in between was enough for Chen Qi to work harder.

The alchemical puppet transformed by Brut can only exist for 10 days, and Chen Qi has to hurry up to empty out everything he knows.

Meridians, true qi, and the Eight Gates of Dunjia, Chen Qi is quite interested in these.

...

Hu Jinyong and the other two certainly did not dare to shirk the important task assigned to them by the captain.

If they can't do such trivial things well, how can they be qualified to join the Tianwu Spell Academy.

They are not like the captain and other controllers, who are destined to join the top ten super spell academies.

They don't have the secret method of spiritual sublimation, and they are still in the probation period. They can only rely on their performance to add more points for themselves.

As for what the captain is going to do, it is not something they can ask.

After experiencing this battle, the three of them have completely adjusted their mentality.

Everyone is only classmates in Shengxian Island. Once they join the Tianwu Spell Academy, the captain may immediately become their senior.

Isn't it right to maintain respect for seniors?

...

Chen Qi didn't care about the inner drama of these three guys. Seeing that the three agreed and began to "persuade" the panicked survivors in the camp, Chen Qi left leisurely.

As for his destination, it was certainly not Coleman's laboratory.

How stupid would he have to be to track a group of enemies alone?

Chen Qi just wanted to find a quiet laboratory to study something.

For Chen Qi, who had already searched the entire outer ring area, it was a piece of cake to find a suitable laboratory.

...

Chen Qi's mission was over, but the situation in other gathering places was not so smooth.

Although the most difficult bones to chew were definitely the three major gathering places.

But the various evils hidden in those small gathering places also gave the team responsible for the strategy a headache.

It's not that those troublemakers are so powerful, but their methods are too despicable.

These bastards completely took ordinary humans as hostages and even tried to bargain with the academy.

Although the matter was finally resolved, the process was not as clean as Chen Qi's.

This is still good. The cholera elements in the gathering place are just fallen extraordinary people.

If you encounter those tough people who are the controllers themselves, or those who collude with other life forms, things will be much more complicated.

And in these chaos and noise, the main force led by the three examiners also descended on the three major human gathering places.

Especially the gathering place where the Ural Kingdom is located. When the Sea Kite appeared, everyone was immediately shocked.

For ordinary people who are already in deep despair, seeing such a powerful man-made object is hope.

…

"Hey, are you finally taking action?"

"That's right, that Feng Zhenchuan has escaped. With the past style of the top ten super magic schools, they will definitely not ignore the human gathering places scattered on the seashore."

"But if you want me to hand over the control of the gathering place, you have to give me some benefits."

"Otherwise, wouldn't I be working in vain!"

Ural Kingdom Navy Captain Velos looked at the Sea Kite in the sky, stunned.

This kind of flying small extraordinary warship is an absolute heavy weapon in the Ural Kingdom, and he is not qualified to drive it at all.

However, the Tianwu Spell Academy dispatched hundreds of ships for a mere freshman assessment.

The top ten super spell academies are indeed rich and powerful.

...

Although the other party came with bad intentions, Colonel Velos was unexpectedly friendly.

There is no way, because the Ural Kingdom is now in a quagmire and no one can be offended.

Of course, the sky is high and the emperor is far away. If you don’t work for yourself, you will be punished by heaven and earth.

Colonel Velos also needs to eat, so he has to bargain and can’t sell himself too cheaply.

"Interesting!"

After seeing Colonel Velos's attitude, Caroline knew that there should be no need to use force here.

But the more the other party does this, the more it proves that the next negotiation will be difficult.

Fortunately, it can be solved after all, it’s nothing more than making some promises and spending more time.

…

Just as Caroline and Willos were negotiating, Wei Qingran and Wu Xingwu also arrived at their respective destinations.

Completely different from the friendly reception Caroline received, the atmosphere in the air around Wei Qingran and Wu Xingwu became tense as soon as they appeared near the camp.

And when the two sides met, the situation was even more tense.

“Trouble, get ready for battle!”

Feeling the undisguised malice of the guys on the opposite side, Wei Qingran and Wu Xingwu knew that there must be something wrong with the other side.

In the other world, those who dared to offend the top ten super magic schools so blatantly, except for being mentally abnormal, were betraying humanity.

The current situation could only be the latter.

In this case, we can only use thunderbolt means.

…

“The shaping of spiritual veins requires the use of a special medicine.”

“That medicine contains a powerful active ingredient that can stimulate the extraordinary gene fragments in the human body.”

“Under the stimulation of that medicine, through the art of visualization, the life magnetic field is distorted with spirituality, and the scattered extraordinary gene fragments in the human body are melted into one, which can be transformed into meridians.”

“The number of meridians depends on the number of extraordinary gene fragments in the human body.”

“After the meridians are finalized, they can continue to grow under the stimulation of drugs, and the nutrients they need are extraordinary gene fragments.”

"When the meridians evolve to the extreme, they can connect to the human body's umbilical cord. This is called breaking through the innate and connecting with the outside world."

In a secluded laboratory, the alchemy puppet talked freely.

Chen Qi nodded while listening, as if he really understood.

"Tell me the ingredients of the potion and the specific synthesis method."

"About the shaping of the true qi, also tell me in detail."

Chen Qi gave instructions to the alchemy puppet without hesitation, and the latter immediately began to preach the new content.

The more Chen Qi listened, the more energetic he became, and the more he listened, the brighter the light in his eyes became.

It turned out that the active ingredient in that potion was still Cao Huandan.

In fact, if it is used with the elixir, the effect is better.

But Coleman seemed to be unlucky and did not get the elixir.

The biochemical road actually wanted to study a secret awakening medicine to complete the shaping of the meridians while awakening the spirit. It was really bold.

But how could the body of an ordinary person withstand the shaping of the meridians while awakening the spirit.

Life force can actually merge with spiritual energy and transform into a more unique energy.

This energy can not only temper the meridians, but also strengthen the human body.

This is true qi.

…

The power of true qi actually comes from the body-refining technique of ancient cultivators.

Of course, it is only a more popular type of body-refining technique, and even a true qi martial art has been developed.

As for the origin of the Eight Gates of Dunjia, it is even more amazing.

It was actually obtained from a laboratory in the Hell Road.

The Hell Road studies various physical changes, and it is indeed easy to contact the source of life.

To be more precise, the biggest problem with the incomplete inheritance obtained by the Hell Road is that the source of life flows out when the changes are performed.

Long-term illness makes a good doctor. If they have developed the Eight Gates of Dunjia because of this, it is not impossible.

…

After some study, Chen Qi had to admire Brute.

This guy looks like a reckless man, but he actually learned so much knowledge from Coleman.

Sure enough, you can't judge a person by his appearance. A strong body does not mean a simple mind.

Chen Qi spent a day and finally completely emptied the knowledge mastered by the alchemy doll.

Then Chen Qi fell into deep thought, should he practice meridians and true qi?

Whether it is extraordinary gene fragments or life energy, they are originally part of the human body.

Although human spirituality will be affected a little by developing them, it will not be too big.

At least with Chen Qi's current spiritual frequency, it is absolutely stable.

The key to the problem is that even if the meridians and true qi are practiced, Chen Qi's current strength will not be improved at all.

If you don't practice to the so-called "innate" realm, you can't even mobilize the spiritual energy of the outside world.

According to Chen Qi's research, the innate realm that Brute said corresponds to the controller.

Even if Chen Qi is very confident in himself, has elixirs and various advanced equipment in his hands, and has considerable attainments in the field of life, it will take at least more than half a month to complete the practice of meridians and true qi.

Is it worth wasting so much time without improving his own combat effectiveness?

...

In the end, Chen Qi gritted his teeth and made up his mind to cultivate meridians and true qi.

The reason for making such a decision is that Chen Qi is interested in the two unique effects of meridians and true qi.

For example, when the meridians evolve to the extreme, they can connect to the umbilical cord of life.

This makes Chen Qi very interested.

For a long time, Chen Qi wanted to make his umbilical cord of life grow again and grow a few inches longer. It would be even better if it could connect to the origin of the world.

It's a pity that the knowledge he had come into contact with in the past had nothing to do with this.

But the appearance of meridians gave Chen Qi a glimmer of hope.

After the meridians are connected to the umbilical cord of life, can they provide nutrients for it and promote its transformation again?

Chen Qi felt it was very necessary to try it.

Especially with the Eight Gates of Dunjia, stimulating the umbilical cord of life with the origin of life may not be impossible to create miracles.

……

As for Chen Qi's choice to cultivate true qi, it was because of its effect of tempering the body.

Chen Qi's current life index is not even as good as that of a bird.

Such a fragile body has become Chen Qi's biggest shortcoming.

Chen Qi has always believed in the barrel theory, and he can mend the leaks wherever they occur.

Although he has not yet obtained the art of body refining, nourishing the body with true qi can still have some effect.

With these two benefits, Chen Qi can afford to waste just over half a month.

Then Chen Qi turned on the life map detector, and with the help of the irradiation power of the elixir, he projected and marked all the extraordinary gene fragments in his body.

Under the irradiation of the elixir, the extraordinary gene fragments in Chen Qi's body began to jump instinctively, which was much better than taking those messy medicines.

Next, you only need to combine the visualization method to smelt the meridians.

And this is not difficult for Chen Qi, who has already mastered part of the life alchemy.

And the reality is just as Chen Qi predicted, he only took one day to smelt 36 meridians.

According to Chen Qi's calculations, under the irradiation of the elixir, the extraordinary gene fragments in his body can probably melt 108 meridians.

But these are not 108 meridians, which have already exhausted all the extraordinary gene fragments in Chen Qi's body.

On the contrary, this part of the extraordinary gene fragments only accounts for about 1% of the total.

It's not that Chen Qi doesn't want to continue smelting, but under the irradiation of the immortal pill, there are only so many restless extraordinary gene fragments.

Chen Qi can't mobilize and use other extraordinary gene fragments at all.

If he wants to mobilize more extraordinary gene fragments, he can only enhance the power of the immortal pill or increase the number of immortal pills.

But these are things for the future, Chen Qi is not in a hurry.

…

After the meridians are born, they are only initially formed.

The newly formed meridians are extremely fragile and slender, and they need to be continuously nourished and polished with true qi in the future.

Chen Qi originally planned to melt all 108 meridians in one go.

But he soon found that he was just thinking too much.

After the meridians are born, if there is no uninterrupted nourishment of true qi, they will soon wither and break.

In desperation, Chen Qi can only turn to practicing true qi to consolidate the 36 meridians that have just been born.

The birth of true qi is also a technical job. What kind of spiritual energy and life energy are the best match, and what is the ratio of the two? These are all knowledge.

Fortunately, Chen Qi had enough special spiritual energy, so he could easily handle the true qi.

Chen Qi only used vitality to smelt a special spiritual energy for the newly born true qi.

This quality of true qi is already the limit of Brute, but it is only the starting point for Chen Qi.

Once he adapts to and masters the true qi and cracks the mystery, he can use vitality to smelt more spiritual energy and continue to improve the quality of the true qi.

Chen Qi is very much looking forward to the degree to which the true qi will transform.

…

Chen Qi's method of cultivating meridians and true qi is already very different from Brute's potion version.

Chen Qi feels that he should give the new version of the cultivation method a more resounding name, such as "Xian Zhao Jing"?

Time passed little by little during Chen Qi's cultivation. In the blink of an eye, three days have passed.

And this sweeping operation has finally settled and has a final outcome.
