Chapter 278: Civilization Relics and the Spiritual Artifacts on the Ancient Planet Mars
Jiajing, dressed in a white Taoist robe, stepped on the red earth, with small and sharp rocks under his feet.
Looking up at the sky, what meets the eye is the red dust covering the sky and blocking out the sun. The sun's rays shine through the thick mist, forming distorted, mottled light and shadows.
"Is this the ancient planet Mars..." Jiajing looked around the surrounding environment.
Then, Jiajing had an idea and restored his body to a mortal state. He then tried to take a breath, but his expression suddenly changed.
There was an extreme burning sensation in the throat.
Almost instantly, Jiajing filled his body with spiritual energy without even thinking about it, but he did not restore himself to the state of a Nascent Soul cultivator.
Instead, he raised his cultivation to the first level of Qi Refining. However, when he tried to breathe again, the burning sensation came again.
"I've only practiced Qi for one level, but it's still not enough..." Thinking of this, Jiajing improved his cultivation again.
The second level of Qi training, the third level of Qi training, the fourth level of Qi training... the seventh level of Qi training, the eighth level of Qi training, the ninth level of Qi training!
“Hiss, huh…” After taking a deep breath and exhaling the foul air in his body, Jiajing said to himself: “Only cultivators who have reached the ninth level of Qi training can barely survive on this ancient firefly planet.”
"However, the living environment of Yinghuo is already the lowest among all the stars in the solar system for cultivators to survive, like Taibai Star..."
Thinking of the terrifying temperature on the surface of Taibai Star, Jiajing raised his hand and a storage ring appeared on his finger.
All the remains of the ancient star Taibai are now in the storage ring.
That’s right, the living environment on the Taibai Ancient Star is indeed extremely harsh, but it is not enough to make him, who is in the Nascent Soul stage, lose his ability to move and survive.
The size of Venus is very large, so large that even if he is a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage and his spiritual sense is fully expanded, he still cannot explore it completely in a short period of time!
Of course, even if it is the size of the earth, it is impossible to cover it completely with the consciousness of a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage alone.
It took a full year for Jiajing to take a shuttle and search piece by piece with his spiritual sense in the same way he had explored the moon.
He thought that he could also find extraordinary things on Taibai Star, such as the spine he found last time, but he actually found some useful things.
Unfortunately, he did not find the identical human spine this time, which led him to discover the remains of an alien civilization that did not belong to Earth at all.
With the memories of later generations, he naturally knew that later generations had been searching for extraterrestrial civilizations, but unfortunately, ordinary people only knew this much.
"It is impossible that Earth is the only place where human beings exist in this vast universe..." Looking at the large areas of steel ruins in the storage ring.
After collecting his thoughts, Jiajing continued to focus his attention on the ancient planet Mars in front of him.
The surface is full of holes.
One huge crater after another, like the devil's giant mouth, silently swallowed everything.
Pieces of sand and dust were gently lifted up under Jiajing's feet and drifted away with the wind, as if they were the whispers of this desolate land, telling of endless loneliness and vicissitudes.
After his spiritual consciousness dispersed for a moment, Jiajing retracted it again.
Then he headed towards a huge depression not far away.
Not far away, a strange rock came into view, emitting a faint fluorescence. Its shape was twisted and strange, making people unable to help but reach out and touch it.
"Spiritual weapon? No, it's some kind of incomplete weapon..." Looking at the rock emitting faint light in front of him, Jiajing narrowed his eyes slightly.
"The fluctuation of spatial force, and the discovery of something that only exists in the world of immortal cultivation..."
This is the second time that Jiajing has discovered something related to cultivation or the world of cultivation in his own universe.
On the ancient planet Mars, a "spiritual weapon" was discovered that can only be found in the world of immortal cultivation. It has to be said that this is indeed a discovery that is no less important than the remains of technological civilization.
At the same time, it also made Jiajing wonder, could it be that there is some connection between this universe and the world of immortal cultivation?
With an idea in his mind, Jiajing probed his spiritual consciousness into the rock wall in front of him.
"Oh!"
However, what he didn't expect was that with his Nascent Soul stage consciousness, he was actually deflected by this weapon which seemed to be severely damaged and whose level had dropped to the level of a spiritual weapon.
This was something he didn't expect.
With an idea in his mind, Jiajing did not use his spiritual sense to test this time, but raised his palm to touch the rock wall in front of him.
"Sure enough!" The next moment, as Jiajing expected, he was pulled directly into the rock wall.
"According to the 'General Notes on Cultivation - Instruments', if many spiritual instruments contain 'dead spirits', then their existence is mostly just for protection."
"If it is a 'living spirit', then it will be very useful. Whether or not the protected object is allowed to be touched by humans depends entirely on the choice of the spirit itself."
"Most of the things guarded by the Undead, such as inheritance or the artifact itself, require outsiders to enter a predetermined password or familiar spiritual energy if they want to access them."
"But if the spirit inside the weapon, whether it's a 'living spirit' or a 'dead spirit', dissipates, then the weapon will become ownerless. Whoever picks it up will own it!"
After some basic and routine introductions about spiritual weapons flashed through his mind, Jiajing felt that his eyes were covered by a dazzling light.
"My guess is correct. I wonder why there are traces of immortal cultivation in the universe where the Earth is located, and what is the connection between it and the immortal cultivation world?"
"However, the uses of immortal cultivation items are mostly the same."
"Moreover, even hundreds of years later, when humans were able to use some probes to explore the ancient planet Mars, they still did not discover the existence of immortal cultivators."
"So, after so many years, the weapon spirit should have ceased to exist!"
"Plus, the residual power of the fluctuations in this weapon far exceeds the scope of spiritual weapons. Regardless of what kind of battle it has been through, or the accumulation of years... it is enough to prove that the 'spirit' in this weapon is gone!"
"Wow!"
The next moment, Jiajing found himself in a valley surrounded by green mountains, clear waters and the fragrance of flowers.
However, what is strange is that in this valley, apart from the sound of wind and flowing water, no other sounds, such as the sounds of birds and animals, can be heard at all.
So quiet!
"This is the interior of this 'spiritual weapon'..." Looking at everything in front of him, Jiajing's body slowly rose into the air with an idea in his mind. After a while, he arrived at a height of several hundred meters.
Afterwards, the huge spiritual consciousness belonging to the Nascent Soul stage began to expand and stretch infinitely!
One hour passed, two hours passed, three hours passed...six hours passed.
It lasted for seven hours, and the divine consciousness had reached its limit, but it still couldn't measure its size. "It's too big. I'm afraid this mysterious space is bigger than the earth. Although I can't measure the size of this place, it's not without gain..."
"At least we can be sure that in this mysterious space, apart from vegetation, there is no living thing! The most amazing thing is that there is no spiritual energy here either."
"This is a completely soulless space."
Afterwards, he wandered around and explored in this mysterious space for nearly several days, but unfortunately he still could not figure out the size of this space.
"I'm afraid this place is bigger than the earth..." Unable to figure out the reason, Jiajing took one last look at this mysterious space, and then he decided to leave the outside world.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh." At this time, a strong wind had started to blow outside without anyone noticing, raising a sky full of red dust, and making Jiajing's robe rustle.
However, this little bit of wind and sand is nothing to Jiajing, whose cultivation has reached the Nascent Soul stage.
Looking at the rock wall in front of him that was emitting a faint glow, Jiajing's heart moved, and he forced a drop of blood from his fingertips and pressed it against the rock wall.
On this desolate ancient planet of Mars, Jiajing discovered a magical weapon of unknown level, which he would not miss.
Moreover, for many magic weapons, once they recognize their master or are refined, all their functions and effects can be known.
There are two reasons why I didn't choose to directly recognize the master and refine it before entering to explore.
The first reason is that when he used his spiritual sense to test it before, the spiritual energy bounced off. This shows that although the spiritual weapon has lost its spirit, it itself is not allowed to be refined.
If you want to refine some magic weapons, you must use your spiritual sense. If you refine them rashly without finding out the details, and if there is danger, the result will be more harm than good.
The second reason is that he felt the power of space from the spiritual weapon in front of him.
The moment this force of space came into contact with him, he felt as if it wanted to pull him into some mysterious space.
Of course, the most important thing is that he can enter and exit the world of immortal cultivation freely. If he really encounters a threat in it, he can return to the world of immortal cultivation at any time, and then enter the Ming Dynasty from the world of immortal cultivation.
"Buzz!" At this moment, the moment his fingers touched the spiritual weapon rock wall, Jiajing's expression suddenly changed.
He found that the blood in his body was being continuously absorbed by the rock wall in front of him!
It looked like he would not stop until all the blood in his body was sucked dry.
"Not good!" Jiajing's face was gloomy and he was practicing his skills frantically, trying to pull his body away.
However, what he didn't expect was that no matter how he practiced, even though he was now a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage, he still couldn't pull his body away from the rock wall in front of him.
At the same time, he discovered that the blood in his body was being absorbed faster and faster, and the light bursting out from the rock wall in front of him was becoming brighter and brighter!
"Boom!" The next moment, a beam of light shot out from the Yebi Stone and shot straight into the sky.
Nearly two-thirds of the blood in Jiajing's body had been lost.
At this moment, not only was his blood flowing out, but even the spiritual energy in his body was flowing out like crazy!
His vitality seemed to be fading away madly.
"Will I die?" At this moment, for some unknown reason, a thought suddenly popped up in Jiajing's mind.
This thought only occurred to him once in his life, and that was in the 39th year of the Jiajing reign. When he knew that his health was deteriorating and that there were no immortals in the world, the despair in his heart brought him fear of death.
Even when he entered the world of cultivating immortals and faced enemies like the Future Academy, he never felt the slightest fear in his heart.
But at this moment, he clearly felt the feeling of death as his blood was being drained away crazily and he was powerless to do anything and had to wait to die!
This was the closest he had ever been to death.
"Boom, boom, boom, boom..." The natal Ming in the sea of consciousness seemed to sense that the master was facing a life-and-death crisis, and suddenly emitted ripples like a heartbeat.
"No, I can't die!" At this moment, Jiajing's will was stronger than ever before.
"Buzz buzz buzz!" The imperial seal appeared from between the eyebrows, emitting golden light.
A golden light protected Jiajing's soul. At the same time, a huge life force burst out from his natal Ming and poured into Jiajing's body.
This is the life force of the entire earth.
"boom!"
With the blessing of huge life force, Jiajing's body suddenly burst into brilliant golden light.
At this moment, Jiajing realized that the rock wall in front of him was not absorbing his blood and cultivation, but his vitality.
With the continuous influx of life force from the earth, Jiajing didn't know how much time had passed. Finally, the crazy suction force slowly weakened.
"It's over!"
With his eyes fixed on the rock wall in front of him, at this moment, the initial fear in Jiajing's heart had dissipated, and was replaced by anticipation for this magic weapon of unknown level.
Over the years, his knowledge of the world of immortal cultivation has been extensive, and the scene happening before his eyes was indeed unheard of.
“Perhaps the previous level of these magic weapons in front of us is spiritual treasures that surpass spiritual weapons, or immortal weapons!”
Thinking that the magic weapon in front of him might be a spiritual treasure or even a fairy weapon, Jiajing's heart couldn't help but warm up!
You have to know that in the entire world of cultivating immortals, only the super sects in the Central Plains have spiritual treasures. Even ordinary super sects do not have spiritual treasures. It can be said that spiritual treasures are truly priceless.
Every time one of them appeared, it would inevitably cause countless people to scramble for it, and even ordinary sects would not be qualified to grab it.
If it is the legendary magic weapon, then I'm afraid only those academies have it.
Of course, if there are some super sects with an ancient heritage of tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of years, there may be one or two immortal artifacts in the sect.
If we could really find a magical treasure, or even a magical weapon, on this desolate planet of Mars Valley, it would definitely be a huge profit!
As long as a magic weapon can reach the level of a spiritual treasure or even a fairy weapon, then each one can be said to have infinite uses.
The interior of this "spiritual weapon" in front of you is a secret space that looks extremely real.
If it is really at the level of an immortal weapon, then it is not just a simple secret space that looks extremely real, but a real world!
In fact, its magical uses are not just as simple as the world, but may be even more magical!
"Buzz!" Finally, as the life force absorbed completely disappeared, the rock wall in front of him turned into a stream of light.
It directly flowed into Jiajing’s brows!
At this point, this mysterious magic weapon with a mysterious origin that almost cost Jiajing's life successfully recognized its owner.
And Jiajing finally understood its function!
"..."
