Chapter 318 Breakthrough to the Third Level, Life Span of 500 Years

December 28, 2033.

In a five-star hotel in Su Xin's hometown of Baohe City, Su Xin and Liu Xuewei held a low-key wedding.

Due to the deliberate control of the two, the news of the marriage did not spread to the outside world. Only more than a hundred relatives of the two attended the wedding. Not even their colleagues and friends from the company were invited. The main focus was to keep a low profile.

At noon the day after the wedding, Su Xin and Liu Xuewei boarded a luxurious small cruise ship and sailed into the vast sea.

Today's intelligent robots have developed to an extremely advanced level. For example, Su Xin's cruise ship has professional driving robots, chef robots, security robots, housework robots, housekeeper robots, and sailor robots.

The cruise ship itself is also very high-tech. It is not only equipped with Thor III high-density solid-state batteries, but also solar power panels, and wind energy and seawater kinetic energy conversion devices. The three-pronged approach replenishes energy around the clock, allowing the cruise ship to have a regular endurance of for more than half a year.

Even if the battery is low due to special circumstances, it can be stopped at sea and slowly replenished.

In addition, the control center of the cruise ship is the Tianhai Intelligent Control System developed by Tianqi Group. It can connect to the SkyNet, predict weather changes, plan routes reasonably, observe the surrounding environment, and use various detection devices to warn the surroundings and people approaching under the sea. All objects.

The cruise ship itself also has certain automatic defense mechanisms to resist attacks by conventional enemies.

Therefore, there is no need for other staff on the cruise ship. Only Su Xin and Liu Xuewei can sail freely on the sea.

The development of science and technology has made people's lives more and more convenient, especially the lives of rich people.

…

While the newlyweds Su Xin and Liu Xuewei were traveling around the world, senior astronomers from the Astronomical Academy and top scientists from the Dragon Kingdom were studying the various technologies contained on the alien spacecraft in the experimental base day and night.

Although it is extremely difficult, with such a strong team strength and some foundations laid by Su Xin before, the research progress is still slowly advancing, bringing continuous improvement to Blue Star Technology.

The lunar development team is also constantly excavating Yuanshi on the moon and sending it back to Blue Star across hundreds of thousands of kilometers, all of which are sent to Su Xin's base.

This is the condition reached by Su Xin and Long Guo, and all Yuan Stones belong to him alone.

at the same time.

The atmosphere and other environments on the moon are also gradually improving. A large area centered on Crescent City has slowly established a not-so-perfect ecosystem.

In addition to several specially improved plants, dozens of animals and microorganisms have begun to survive and reproduce on the moon.

The superhuman experimental subjects have also gradually become accustomed to the moon's air, light, radiation and other environments, and have gradually adapted to being exposed to the outside world for a long time. As a result, their activity areas have gradually expanded to distant places.

Time passed quietly.

Blue Star's technology is advancing with each passing day, and people's lifestyles are also changing little by little.

During their honeymoon trip, Su Xin and his wife visited all the famous scenic spots around the world, as well as some lesser-known dangerous places.

Both of them have been strengthened by Tianji No. 4 potion, and they also have Tianlong armor. They can travel in the clouds and explore in the deep sea. They also have the mysterious Grand Canyon, the extremely cold North and South Poles, and the desolate deserts, all left behind. The footprints of the two of them were revealed.

Until a year later.

The two returned to Tianjing, Liu Xuewei returned to work, and Su Xin returned to the experimental base where the Yuan Stone was stored.

During this year, although Su Xin did not take care of work matters, Xiang Lianyun still reported some important progress to him regularly——

For example, after months of surveying and mining, all the reserves of Yuan Mine on the moon were finally discovered.

It was a small medium-grade Yuan mine with reserves of about 30,000 yuan. There were about 10,000 middle-grade Yuan stones in the depths, and the 20,000 yuan or so on the surface were basically low-grade Yuan stones.

Since mining becomes more difficult the deeper you go, and the equipment on the moon is limited, only half of the entire Yuan Mine has been mined so far.

Not even the 20,000 pieces of low-grade Yuan Stone on the surface have been mined out. The middle-grade Yuan Stone in the depths has just begun to be mined, and the quantity is not large.

Less than 20,000 yuan stones have been mined, and now they are all piled in the warehouse in front of Su Xin.

After numerous identity verifications, the thick metal doors automatically opened to both sides.

The lights in the warehouse automatically turned on, allowing Su Xin to see the situation in the warehouse clearly.

There were only a dozen square baskets made of metal mesh, about five meters in length and width, neatly placed in the spacious warehouse. Almost all ten of the metal baskets were filled with primeval stones.

There is only a small half of the pile in another basket. The color of the Yuan Stone inside is obviously different from the Yuan Stone in other baskets. It looks slightly darker.

"Let's start practicing again!"

Su Xin grinned.

He casually ordered the warehouse door to close, and walked to one of the metal baskets.

There was a metal door that could slide up and down on one side of the basket. Su Xin unlocked the latch and opened the metal door slightly upwards.

Suddenly——

"Crash!"

Some Yuan stones rolled out automatically, forming a small pile of stones in front of Su Xin.

Su Xin immediately sat cross-legged.

After his thoughts slowly calmed down, he reached out and took out a piece of Yuan Stone. As soon as his thoughts moved, he entered a state of ten thousand times faster speed and began extreme training.

In just the blink of an eye, Su Xin absorbed all the energy in the Yuan Stone in his hand.

Then he released the divine speed state, threw the waste stone aside, took another yuan stone, and then re-entered the divine speed state without stopping.

This goes on and on.

From an outside perspective, Su Xin kept picking up a piece of Yuan Stone, then threw it aside, and then picked up another piece, with extremely high efficiency.

If an uninformed person were here, seeing this scene, they would probably think that Su Xin was just toying with the Yuan Stone aimlessly.

The Yuan Stones in the metal basket slowly and automatically flowed out, keeping the pile of Yuan Stones in front of Su Xin always a small pile of no more and no less.

Only about ten minutes passed.

Su Xin was suddenly shocked.

A powerful invisible wave emanated from his body.

The first time he practiced before, his Yuanli cultivation had already reached the late second level, and he was just a hair away from the threshold of the third level.

Now, after continuously absorbing hundreds of Yuan Stones, his Yuan Power cultivation level has finally broken through.

Officially reached level three!

This means that his physical fitness has been improved again, reaching two hundred times that of ordinary people, and his life span has also been greatly extended, reaching five hundred years!

The breakthrough in cultivation gave Su Xin a hearty feeling of pleasure from the inside out.

It was as if his body had been carrying an invisible burden, but now it was suddenly relieved. He felt extremely relaxed all over his body, and even his breathing became much smoother.

After a short break.

Su Xin picked up a Yuan Stone again and entered a ten thousand times faster state to continue practicing.

Wave after wave of Yuan energy crazily poured into his body, acting on the Yuan core at his Dantian, stimulating and inducing the Yuan core to continue to mutate and grow.

However.

After using dozens of Yuan Stones continuously, the change in Yuan Core is extremely small, just like using one or two Yuan Stones just now.

In other words, the effect of cultivation is only a few tenths of what it was before.

If compared with the effect of Su Xin's initial cultivation, it is only equivalent to a few hundredths.

"It seems that what Aldo and the others said is correct. As the cultivation level continues to improve, the Yuan core undergoes transformation again and again, and the cultivation effect of low-grade Yuan stones will become worse and worse."

"After reaching a certain level, these low-grade Yuan stones may no longer have any effect on the Yuan core, that is, they will no longer be able to improve their cultivation."

Su Xin couldn't help but shook his head secretly.

"The Yuan Nucleus mutates and grows under the stimulation of Yuan Energy. But when the Yuan Nucleus mutates to a certain extent, these lower-quality Yuan Energy gradually becomes immune to the Yuan Nucleus."

"One hundred copies of Yuan Neng, maybe ninety-nine copies are immune, and only one has an effect."

"It just so happens that the higher the cultivation level, the more energy is required for the transformation of the Yuan Core."

"On the one hand, it increases the capacity limit, and on the other hand, it weakens the absorption effect, causing the difficulty of breaking through Yuanli cultivation to increase almost a hundred times."

"It's just like fighting monsters and upgrading in online games. After reaching a certain level, you will have very little experience in fighting the original low-level monsters, but the experience required for upgrading has increased significantly."

"Pity……"

"I originally thought I could advance to the fourth level."

Su Xin casually threw away the waste Yuan Stone that had lost all its energy, closed the door of the metal basket on the side, and put back the small pile of Yuan Stone in front of him.

Since the efficiency of absorbing these Yuan Stones is only a few tenths of the original, the more than 10,000 low-grade Yuan Stones in these baskets no longer have much effect on him.

He walked to the metal basket containing the middle-grade Yuan Stone and started practicing again.

It has to be said that although the difference between the middle-grade Yuan Stone and the low-grade Yuan Stone is only one grade, the content of Yuan Energy is several times different.

The most important thing is purity.

The Yuan Core, which had barely changed after using the lower-grade Yuan Stone, had changed significantly again under the stimulation of the Yuan energy contained in the middle-grade Yuan Stone.

The effect of practice is very remarkable.

Half an hour later.

The eight to nine hundred mid-grade Yuan Stones in the metal basket were all consumed, and Su Xin's cultivation level also improved significantly. Although it did not reach the mid-level third level, he could clearly feel that his strength was stronger than when he first broke through. A lot.

Throwing aside the last middle-grade Yuan Stone that had exhausted its energy, Su Xin stood up, looked at the more than 10,000 low-grade Yuan Stones in several large metal baskets, turned around and left.

These primeval stones are of little use to him, but they have a very significant effect on his subordinates and can be kept as rewards in the future.

After ordering people to transport all the discarded stones in the warehouse, Su Xin left the base and headed to the biological experiment building.

…

In a spacious, bright, but very empty room, Aldo, a member of the Black Scale tribe, was wearing a full-coverage helmet with a sci-fi style, lying on the bed without any movement.

This is a fully virtual helmet that has become popular around the world in recent years. Through this dedicated helmet, you can enter various types of virtual worlds with your consciousness.

Whether it is simply used for wandering or interacting in the Metaverse, or a virtual attraction that brings together various scenery, or entering a highly realistic game world, this helmet can do it all.

Among them, several Dragon Kingdom-style online games are the most popular in the world, with more than 100 million people online at the same time at their peak.

Aldo is also one of the gaming enthusiasts.

Since he lied when he was initially interrogated by Su Xin, he has been detained in this laboratory and cooperates with various experiments every day. He has certain freedom, but is not allowed to leave a specific area.

Therefore, I gradually fell in love with various games of Blue Star, especially this kind of highly realistic virtual games. In addition, since there was really no other way to kill time, I became addicted to them all day long.

At a certain moment, Aldo, who was killing everyone in the virtual game, received a notification from the staff. He stopped the game, took off his helmet, and walked out of the room.

Led by two staff members, Aldo came to a laboratory and met Su Xin, who had not shown up for a long time.

"How's it going? Are you getting used to it?"

Su Xin smiled and said hello.

Aldo quickly bowed respectfully and said, "Thank you, Mr. Su, for your concern. I am living a good life."

"I heard that you have been playing games recently?"

"Yes."

"Is there no such game on Kroo?"

"No."

Aldo shook his head.

In fact, although Kloxing's technology is very advanced, there are very few entertainment projects. Not to mention virtual games, there are not even the most common entertainment online games.

It's not because no one is studying these, but because the planet Kro is a highly centralized society. Viscount Geraint has the power of life and death over the entire planet and doesn't care about public opinion at all, let alone the spiritual life of the people at the bottom.

Not to mention making money from these entertainment projects, the entire Cloo Star is the personal asset of Viscount Geraint, and he does not need to make money by serving the people at the bottom.

All high technology is just to facilitate management or make Geraint live comfortably.

Warriors like Aldo rarely have the opportunity to enjoy any entertainment.

If a Blue Star person lived on the Clo Star for a period of time, they would definitely feel that it was a rather deformed social form, similar to the backward Blue Star ancient times in some aspects.

same.

Aldo also views Blue Star the same way.

Su Xin asked curiously: "What kind of entertainment do you usually have during your breaks?"

"We don't have special days off. We live in the war camp every day, or go around performing various tasks according to instructions."

"Isn't that just like a robot? Can you bear it with only work and no rest every day?"

"We don't distinguish between work and rest. I am a warrior, and I am just a warrior. I have been a warrior all my life. In the words of Blue Star, being a warrior is both my job and my life. Everyone in Cloo Star That’s true.”

Aldo said without any emotion.

Su Xin had not taken the initiative to ask about Klo Xing's living conditions before, but now after asking casually, he got such an answer, which made him really interested in Klo Xing's social form. (End of chapter)
