Destiny is ashes

Chapter 822 Chief Engineer of the Ancient Immortal Ruins

Chapter 822 Chief Engineer of the Ancient Immortal Ruins (6000)

The divine will that Qu Tong obtained is different from other divine wills.

An Jing realized that condensing this divine will did not consume his own strength, but the Heavenly Dao of the Tianyuan Realm used him to “copy and paste” the elements of the Seven Evil Tribulations, extracted a part of it, and placed it on Qu Tong.

It seems that the Heavenly Dao of the Tianyuan Realm is quite kind and did not consume An Jing’s own strength, but instead tried it himself.

“Does the Heavenly Dao also have different personalities?”

An Jing asked Fu Xie, and Fu Xie hesitated for a moment: “The Way of Heaven, indeed, has its own characteristics because of the differences in the world, but if you must say that it has a personality, it’s a bit wrong. In fact, it is a collection that cannot be described in words. You think that the Way of Heaven is outside of you, but in fact, no matter you or me, we are all part of the Way of Heaven.”

“It is because of this connection that the Way of Heaven can exist with all beings.”

“Is this so?”

An Jing just felt that Huaixu and Tianyuan were special, but he didn’t know whether this specialness was originally the case or because of the contact with Fuxie’s fragments.

By now, everyone has arrived at the Beihuze area, and without any stop, they went straight to the entrance of the ancient fairy ruins located underground.

The gate to the Taixu channel opened to them, and the window leading directly to another world was spinning like a whirlpool.

Logically speaking, even if they were to come here as ‘An Xuan’ using the channels of No. 3 Middle School, it would not be so easy for them to come here – they would be inspected, interrogated, put on a list, and have their spiritual energy signatures signed.

But now, An Jing didn’t even bother to talk to the guards who were checking. These guards had received the news long before they arrived, and they opened all the doors respectfully and prepared all the procedures in advance.

This kind of privilege is usually only available to real people and teams from big families. Although An Xuan is only at the foundation-building stage, his immortal battle body is a real real person’s battle body. For the Tianyuan people who have long accepted the way of immortality, An Jing is actually a real person.

Moreover, at such a young age, he can control his feathered body with ease, which is enough to show that An Xuan is far more powerful than ordinary real people!

“I’m not used to it.”

Huo Qing looked at these guards who were treated respectfully by the entire gang whenever they appeared. Now they were being so respectful to him and others. He couldn’t help but feel like he was dreaming: “Is this true? I’ve never seen faces like them before.”

“It’s normal.”

An Jing was not surprised at all: “It’s just like dealing with a wild beast. As long as you are a little bit ‘arrogant’ and show how strong you are, these people won’t dare to breathe.”

At this point, An Jing did not feel comfortable because others “respected” him so much. On the contrary, he sighed: “As soldiers and guards, they only need to complete their tasks. No matter who comes, they should follow the procedures, and whoever exceeds the regulations should be punished.”

“If everyone acted like this, doing their job and being punished when they made mistakes, then perhaps the world wouldn’t have fallen into the state it is now.”

“That sounds a bit too difficult.”

Nianquan shook his head slightly. He still remembered his own spiritual root qualification certificate. He himself could not get it no matter what, but the people from No. 3 Middle School only took fifteen minutes to get it. Ten minutes of that time was spent praising him for his excellent talent and his limitless future. Four and a half minutes were spent chatting and chatting. The remaining half minute was not for inspection, but to find where the pen was placed. Once found, he would sign directly to prove that it was done.

detection?
How could people who can be brought here by No. 3 Middle School need to be tested? The other party can issue any certificate they want. Only the people below need to follow the rules!

“Yes.”

An Jing said calmly: “No one follows the rules that should be followed, and those who should be punished are not punished. This is the cause of all the chaos and tragedy in this world.”

“Then we are not following the rules now?” Huo Qing laughed, watching his and others’ cars being sent into the ancient ruins on the conveyor belt. He felt the increasingly rich spiritual energy and couldn’t help shaking his head and said, “It seems that we are also the source of chaos in this world.”

“Who says it’s not?”

An Jing laughed: “But I’m waiting for punishment, what are they waiting for?”

Of course, in this world, whether or not you are punished for not following the rules has nothing to do with whether or not you follow the rules.

As they were talking, An Jing and the others arrived at the ancient ruins.

Because the entrance to the ruins in Beihu Ze District is located in mid-air, after the group’s transformation, the current entrance and exit of the Xian Gu ruins in Beihu Ze District has become a large aerospace fortress.

The center of the aerospace fortress is a structure similar to a bird’s nest, wrapped in a transparent formation barrier. The armored vehicle that An Jing and others were riding in disappeared after a scan and disinfection. Surrounding the bird’s nest are a large number of unmanned sword box launchers and various offensive magic weapons, which can prevent the creatures in the ruins from going to Tianyuan, and also prevent unauthorized Tianyuan people from entering the ruins.

After getting off the car, An Jing and others followed the steel corridor to the outer platform, and then they could see an endless sea of ​​white clouds – under the sea of ​​clouds, there was an endless green grassland and a large number of silver-white spots.

These silver-white spots did not appear when An Jing came to the ancient fairy ruins last time. They are the forward bases built by the subsequent group and other adventurers. They are still in their infancy, but it will only take a few months for these silver-white spots to be connected into a huge fortress area, with the aerospace fortress in the air as the base point, controlling the surrounding ancient fairy ruins.

On all sides of the plain, there are mountains, lakes, rivers and swamps. In the distant sky, there are also a large number of ancient ruins and fortresses from the ancient fairy era. Some are as huge as mountains, floating up and down in the sky and on the ground in a wave-like state. From time to time, you can see some huge, inverted metal bases in the boundless sea of ​​clouds. Looking up from the bottom, it looks like the pupils of a giant metal god are constantly shrinking.

Some are only as big as human towns, and are even smaller than some Taixu warships. That is the goal of many adventurous monks – if they can gain control of a small aerospace fortress, whether they sell it to a group or use it as a base for their own team and conduct their own analysis and research, the benefits and merits they can gain will be as huge as mountains.

The base of Gang Hai and others is not here, but located on a small hill near the mountains on the north side of the plain. It takes An Jing and others half an hour to get there by shuttle. The journey is quite peaceful, and the spiritual energy is calm and abundant. Even Nian Quan and Huo Qing, the two who can enjoy the retreat room of the third spirit gathering array, couldn’t help but sit cross-legged in the shuttle to practice, and were filled with emotion.

“This spiritual energy is so refreshing!”

Nian Quan’s body was even covered with shimmering waves. His Heavenly Water Spiritual Root was fully activated, causing the ends of his hair to faintly glow with a layer of deep blue light. “Compared to the ancient ruins, even the city is no different from the countryside!”

“No wonder the books keep saying that the Tianyuan Realm is still in the stage of ‘after the end of the world, everything is in ruins and needs to be rebuilt’.”

Although Huo Qing was not so exaggerated, because he now also has a destiny, the speed of absorbing spiritual energy is not slow: “If the whole world is the same as the ancient ruins of the immortals in the Dao Court era, then our current situation is indeed no different from the ruins of the end of the world.”

“Actually.”

Fu Xie said: “The spiritual energy in the Daoting era can only be more abundant. Although the spiritual energy of this ancient immortal ruins is rich, I feel that it is somewhat dead and inactive…”

“In short, it’s still not top-notch. According to the evaluation standards at that time, it should be just ‘good to below’, not to mention excellent. The environmental supervisor should be held accountable.”

Obviously, this is something that people today cannot imagine.

Soon, during the practice, as the shuttle gradually descended, everyone arrived at the base of the Steel Skeleton Team.

This is a simple fortress camp, but a very advanced spiritual network signal tower is erected in the center. Mercenaries go in and out of the camp. When each team returns from a mission, the next team will take over and continue exploring and building more forward bases.

“I’ll leave Qu Tong to you.”

An Jing saw that the light cocoon condensed by Qu Tong had become very stable, and the power of the Tianyuan Realm’s Heavenly Dao seemed to be able to be exerted in the ancient immortal ruins – he didn’t know what kind of power Qu Tong got from the Tianyuan Heavenly Dao, so he directly handed it to Gang Hai, who seemed to have seen something.

Patting his shoulder, An Jing used physical contact to communicate with Gang Hai: [Don’t worry, if you want to report to the Guiyi Army, just report normally… the power behind me… No, my purpose, as I said, is to discipline the customs of this world.]

[Although I still don’t know the true purpose of the Guiyi Army, and I don’t know whether you are worthy of using the word ‘righteousness’, but you can show me.]

arrogant.

But not arrogant.

Gang Hai knew very well that the reason why An Jing’s attitude had changed so drastically, besides the fact that his strength had reached the realm of true person, was also because the forces behind him had decided to fully support him.

There must be a Jindan Zhenjun behind the other party, but looking at his current posture… could it be that there is a Daotai Yuanying, a Tianjun sitting in charge? !

If not for this, with such inheritance, how could An Jing possibly master the power of becoming a god!

But how is this possible… Now that the heaven and earth are in shatters, not to mention Daotai Tianjun, even Jindan Zhenjun has to go to the Internet to patrol and maintain the laws of heaven and earth… Why?
【I see】

But these were not things he could guess. Gang Hai nodded, and told several subordinates to take Qu Tong to the retreat room, and then took An Jing and others to the consultation room.

Here, he showed An Jing the location of the Taixu rift they had discovered, which was suspected to be created by a real dragon.

[The rift is located deep in the mountains, in a collapsed peak]

Gang Hai said: [We noticed that the collapse of the mountain was very unnatural, so we sent a team that mastered the earth escape technique to investigate, and we found this crack in the broken mountain.]

[This rift is very huge. It is wide enough to accommodate ten shuttles entering side by side. It is a hundred feet high. The power of the void is extremely terrifying. It is difficult for us to enter.]

On the screen, a collapsed mountain did not turn into ordinary collapsed debris, but formed a strange crater, and the bottom of the central crater was a huge, looming Taixu rift, which was constantly absorbing soil and rocks. There were also various data on this Taixu rift next to it. If there were no special equipment, I’m afraid that at least a Purple Mansion True Person could enter and exit.

[Indeed, it is the breath of Yunying!] Although it was far away for Ganghai and the others, for Xi Tianjun, when he saw the crater, he found the location of the Taixu rift with a thought. Then, after An Jing reminded him that “we are going to teleport”, under the gaze of Ganghai who was extremely horrified and Nianquan and Huo Qing who were surprised but not shocked, everyone moved from Ganghai’s base to the vicinity of the crater in an instant.

【This, this is…】

Even though Gang Hai was 100% feathered, he was a little down at the moment, and An Jing smiled and said, “How is my Taixu magic power? Awesome, right?”

——No way!

The two people who had really experienced An Jing’s teleportation just looked at An Jing’s tricks, but their expressions showed that they were very convinced. At this moment, Gang Hai looked at An Jing deeply, and his tone was full of emotion: [With such magical powers, it’s no wonder that your sect dares to let you walk around freely.]

“Indeed.” An Jing nodded. He turned his head and looked at the crack: “But I have to say that you did help a lot.”

On the other side, Xi Tianjun was carefully observing the Taixu rift, then his eyes moved, and his soul raised his hand to probe inside.

【Not here】

Unfortunately, Xi Tianjun did not find any trace of Miao Yunying, but he did find some clues: [But I vaguely felt that he is now in this cave… His condition is not very good, he is completely crazy and selfless, occasionally he will wake up and leave some messages, but he will soon go crazy again and erase this information]

“Normal, ancestor, can you track it?”

After breaking free from the control of Huaixu Tiandao and Shangxuan Sect, Miao Yunying obviously still had self-awareness, but he had only had a martial vein before, and at most was close to becoming a divine being. He was still a whole realm away from becoming a True Lord, so naturally he couldn’t maintain his self.

What An Jing wanted was to find Miao Yunying as soon as possible and make him regain his sanity. In this way, not only would the Mingjing Sect have one more True Lord, but it would also have a trump card in this ancient immortal ruins.

The Four Cities Competition is currently underway because of the opening of the portal to the ancient immortal ruins caused by Miao Yunying. The goal of all forces is obviously this rare Taixu Stardust Dragon – but no one in the Tianyuan Realm knows that this dragon belongs to their family!
[Yes, but Yunying needs to appear again]

If Xi Yitian was in his complete form and could control the Zhulong battle armor, he could rush into Taixu and capture Miao Yunying right now. But it would be too stupid to do so. The water in the ancient ruins is very deep, and the four major groups are watching. If he acts carelessly, it is likely to cause irreversible consequences.

Not to mention, the Taixu Stardust Dragon is a species from the void. While it has strong combat power, its Taixu magical powers are also extremely powerful. Xi Tianjun is not good at Taixu methods, so even with the suppression of a high realm, he has no way to capture it quietly.

Warriors are not afraid of fighting, but they are not stupid. They do big things in order to accomplish things, not just for the sake of survival.

Therefore, Xi Yi directly shot out a mirror light on the spot to cover up the cracks here: [I have set up a monitoring formation, and let these mercenaries monitor and maintain it every day. If there is any abnormality, activate the formation, and I will be able to detect it in the first time and contact that kid]

“Fuxie, what about you?”

Xi Tianjun was not good at the method of the void, but An Jing still remembered that his own Fuxie was the best at it. Fuxie asked An Jing to manifest his sword pupils, and after a slight sense, he noticed a clue: “Just like what your Tianjun said, that kid ran very fast and slippery. Not to mention catching him, even if we want to track him, we have to compress the void and make a lot of noise.”

“However, I did find that the direction this kid was escaping was getting deeper and deeper, all the way to the depths of the cave… It’s unusual. Someone is letting him pass!”

“Let him go?”

An Jing understood immediately after hearing this: “The people of the Pure Land in this ancient immortal ruins?”

“That’s them.”

Fu Xie said confidently: “It seems that not only the four major groups, but also the people of Pure Land are very interested in this Taixu Stardust Dragon.”

“I just don’t know what this group of people intend to do with Miao Yunying. But I can guess that they are definitely planning to use this knife that suddenly appeared to give the four major groups a severe blow.”

“On the contrary.” An Jing never underestimated his opponents: “The reason why the four major groups still held the four-city competition even though they could guess this possibility is definitely not to give heads to the people of Pure Land – it’s interesting, and it depends on the game between the two sides next.”

“Haha, but at the end of the game, once you guys show up, Miao Yunying will regain her sanity, and both sides will be dumbfounded.”

Fu Xie laughed: “But I think this matter is definitely not that simple. For such a big event as the Immortal Ancient Ruins, it is impossible that only the group, or the human race, is responsible… Those demons, monsters, evil spirits, and monsters will definitely not do nothing.”

“The people of the Pure Land suddenly stopped fighting with the Luofu Group. There must be external reasons. We can’t relax too much.”

“I understand.” An Jing’s eyes were calm. He was powerful in combat, but his thinking was also meticulous, and his actions were always planned: “I had thought of this a long time ago, so I told Ancestor Xiyi that this time, it was very likely a ‘test’ arranged by Tianyuan Tiandao.”

“If a foreign celestial monarch wants to have a say in the other world and use the resources to help the entire sect achieve the path of immortality, so that Ancestor Chengguang and Master can live longer… he must subdue demons and monsters!”

The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. An Jing believed that in this Tianyuan world and the ancient ruins of the immortals, there must be many forces plotting against each other, one level higher than the other.

But no one would have thought that An Jing, who looked like a ‘praying mantis’ at most… was the real hunter disguised as prey.

However, before that, An Jing still needs to make more preparations.

“It’s enough to leave the regular entrance and exit of the Immortal Ancient Ruins to Gang Hai and the others. If Tian Yuan Tian Dao really has something to do, it’s likely that I won’t need to take action, but Qu Tong will do it instead.”

Turning back, An Jing looked towards the direction of the entrance of the ancient ruins. He thought: “Now… maybe it’s time to find an opportunity to explore the ‘First Cave’.”

An Jing still remembers the first cave he discovered when he first arrived in Tianyuan Realm.

There seems to be an entrance to the ancient immortal ruins there.

If at that time, An Jing had not chosen to go up and come to the Tianyuan Realm, then perhaps he would have arrived at the ancient immortal ruins first.

At that time, the course of fate diverged into two paths.

An Jing has always been a total internet person, and he wants to see what will happen if he goes down the other path!

However, he is now the focus of the group and all major forces, and can no longer move around freely – it’s still okay for Gang Hai, as the group’s hands cannot reach that far for the time being, but the original cave is in the Tianyuan Realm, and there is a small team of dead exploration team from the Luofu Group inside, so they naturally cannot move around casually.

An Jing felt that he needed to make some plans.

at the same time.

Just when Xi Tianjun was setting up laws in Taixu.

Deep in the ancient ruins, there is an extremely majestic and solemn hall, which is silver-white and inlaid with blue gems.

A cultivator with white hair and red eyes, who looked young but had a very calm and dignified demeanor, opened his eyes: [Hmm?]

[When there is a Dao, there will be fluctuations. Has the Daotai of the group taken action? 】

【wrong……】

He pondered it carefully, but did not detect the fluctuations of the Dao Embryo using the power of heaven and earth to change the law. Although there were indeed some abnormalities, they were more like some kind of natural phenomenon, which made him a little confused: [Strange…]

Around this person, there were many Pure Land people with the same white hair. They noticed the abnormality of this cultivator and came forward to ask with concern: “Chief Engineer, is there another mistake in the formation? I will lead the team to fix it immediately!”

【Not an error】

The monk called “Chief Engineer” waved his hand slightly. He should be a Taoist monk, but there was nothing strange about him and he seemed very approachable.

Most of the other Pure Land people around are at the foundation building stage or even Qi refining stage, but they are not very afraid: [But everyone still needs to be careful. Although this demonic world eroded by demonic energy seems to have some normal humans, they have long been soaked in demonic energy and are corrupt and have low morals. Don’t believe a single word of the truce agreement with them.]

[If Dongtian hadn’t lost the method of teleporting from the Great Void, he would really want to stay away from these demonic worlds…]

At this point, the chief engineer couldn’t help but sigh and looked around the hall.

This is a core city located in the deepest part of the cave heaven, but this city is already in ruins, with broken machines emitting sparks everywhere. A large number of Pure Land people are like ants climbing on the hills, working day and night to maintain this giant city of machinery that is already full of errors. But even so, they can only barely maintain the operation of the [Shangyuan Dongxu Huaizhen Hall], which is the central management and control center of the cave heaven, and all the abilities to control the laws of heaven and earth and move the void have long been completely ineffective.

It is precisely because of this that the chief engineer paid so much attention to the suddenly appearing ‘Taixu Stardust Dragon’.

[Is it the protection of a great immortal…?]

Thinking of this, the chief engineer’s expression eased a little: [For some reason, a Taixu Stardust Dragon suddenly fell from the sky. Although it was crazy, it instinctively did not destroy or damage the core of the ruins.]

[If it can regain consciousness, then with its magical powers, perhaps it can really break through the Taixu barrier and restart the two-element vacuum Bagua furnace of the cave, allowing the cave to restore the ability to navigate the Taixu! ]
