Under the shade of the trees, it was still brightly lit.
The demonic god-like figure and the doomsday-like lightning had already disappeared.
Everything seemed like a lifetime ago.
Only the outside of the city was left in a mess, as if it had been blown by a Category 17 typhoon.
The 30-meter-high city wall became the best barrier, blocking the aftermath of the impact, leaving the buildings in the city intact.
Yan Dingtian stood on the city wall, holding his head high and looking at the frightened hunters below. He waved his hand to show that he did what he should do. The enemy was nothing.
The hunters below didn't respond.
They didn't know what happened at all.
At first, it was a suffocating aura, then it was bright starlight and thunder like an immortal's tribulation.
However, it was only a dozen or twenty seconds. They really didn't know what happened.
A group of hunters with an average strength of Sixth or Seventh Awakening couldn't be expected to see the extraordinary movements clearly. Those with lower strength were either scared or fainted.
More than two hours later, the airship fleet returned.
Seven airships gathered together. It was even more shocking. The hunters who were still a little confused after such a long time, and the ordinary survivors who walked out of the shelter saw the fleet. No one knew who was the first to cheer. For a time, shouts resounded through the Tree Shade.
When Tang Yu walked down from the airship, his heart was also quite emotional. He waved and nodded to the survivors.
But he suddenly saw Old Yan squatting in the corner of the city wall, helpless and aggrieved.
What happened?
… …
"A Space Stone, supplemented with countless precious materials, and inscribed with three Master-level runes, twenty-seven High-level runes, one hundred and forty-nine Middle-level runes, and one thousand four hundred and forty-nine Beginner runes to form a Runic Array …
We also need a large amount of human blood as a guide, and then use a special method to open the spatial passage … Furthermore, this passage has a limit. Regardless of whether it's a person or an object, the higher the energy level of the passage, the more severe the tremors will be. If we force our way through, there's the danger of the spatial passage collapsing …
Tang Yu pondered.
The alien and demonic beasts weren't in the same plane, and the cost of opening the space channel was much higher.
The crack of the abyss was almost everywhere, and the demonic beasts seemed endless.
However, the space tunnel of the non-humankind was only a single space stone, which was made up of countless space-cracking crystals.
In other words, the rift crystal was just a fragment.
Some of the other precious materials, Tang Yu thought he was knowledgeable, but he couldn't recognize them.
"That's good too. The alien race should have sent the materials and some of their weaker members to Earth first … or they simply found the materials on Earth. Now that they don't have the materials to build the tunnel, and most of their members are dead, these two races shouldn't be able to cause much trouble in the near future …
However, Earth … the Planet of Origin actually has more than a hundred different races. If each race has ten Transcendents, it would be equivalent to a thousand Transcendents. Furthermore, as time passes, the barrier between the worlds will weaken, and the spatial passageway will continue to strengthen. More and more Transcendents will arrive on Earth. There might even be rank two or three Transcendents.
Thinking about it was terrifying.
If not for the fact that he possessed a trump card that his enemies did not know about and caught them off guard, he would only be able to force them to retreat at most. However, if he were to be targeted by a dozen Transcendents, he would be in deep trouble.
"Also, according to the information we currently have, these Outsiders should be under the command of the 'Ruler'. The 'Ruler' should be an existence with unimaginable power. Perhaps these Outsiders can only be considered servants?"
Tang Yu could only guess. But the more he thought about it, the more he felt the enemy was powerful.
In the past, he didn't know anything. Tang Yu felt the level 3 territory was stable. Even the demonic wave couldn't attack it. Even now, many large shelters didn't have a sense of crisis. They didn't know about the alien race. At most, they would be attacked by disaster-level demonic beasts.
But the more he understood, the more he realized the terrifying power of the alien race.
The reason why humans could survive until now was partly related to the world barrier and the alien race's restrictions. But Tang Yu felt there must be something he didn't understand.
Shaking his head, he stored the space stone and other materials separately.
Tang Yu no longer thought about it. He was tired tonight. His nerves had been tense. He hadn't needed to sleep for a long time. But today, he changed his clothes and fell asleep on the bed.
… …
On the blue sky, countless picturesque scenes were reflected.
As far as the eye could see, there were countless lush trees. Each tree was comparable to a 20-story building. They were huge. The branches spread out with crystal-like leaves. If you looked closely, some of the giant trees were built with exquisite treehouses.
In the distance, there was a lake that was as smooth as a mirror, and the end of it could not be seen.
Birds and beasts flew, like a celestial scene.
The picture was infinitely far away.
Tang Yu saw the Divine Mountain piercing the sky. He saw the city suspended in the air. Through the reflection in the sky, he seemed to see countless worlds.
But at some point, the reflection in the sky was dyed with a layer of dazzling red and disappeared one by one.
The giant trees withered, the Divine Mountain collapsed, the floating city fell …
Tang Yu woke up.
His eyelids slowly opened.
The warm sunlight shone through the floor-to-ceiling window and sprinkled on the bed curtain.
When he woke up, he felt refreshed and in a better state than he had ever been.
"Strange … it's like a dream. It's an incomparably vast world … I can't remember."
Shaking his head, Tang Yu straightened up, sat cross-legged on the bed, propped his chin on his hand and thought for a while.
He decided to brush his teeth and wash his face first, then eat, then cultivate.
He must make up for the cultivation he missed last night.
He was so diligent.
… …
With two bowls of crystal corn in his stomach, Tang Yu pushed open the door of the second cultivation room.
Strands of mist-like Genesis Qi filled the air, making him feel as if he was soaking in the coolest spring water.
Cultivation was originally a pleasurable thing. The source qi circulated throughout the body, nourishing every cell, relieving fatigue, nourishing the body, relaxing muscles, and so on.
Tang Yu chose the salted fish lying position as the cultivation position. There was no hard requirement for this thing. As long as he absorbed the external source qi, controlled the body's source qi, and operated it according to the cultivation route, whether it was standing, sitting, lying down, or other 18 postures, it didn't affect him.
Breathe in ~
The source qi entered his body and circulated throughout his body, refining it bit by bit.
Tang Yu was startled.
"The refining speed seems to be … a lot faster?"
He wasn't sure if it was an illusion. He continued to absorb and refine the source qi. After a while, his eyes opened, "The absorption and refining speed have become faster. The source qi flow is also smoother than usual. It's like my aptitude has improved, and it's not a small amount. My cultivation efficiency has increased by at least 20%."
However, this wasn't an awakening!
His aptitude couldn't be improved for no reason. Besides, he didn't do anything. He cultivated in the early hours of the morning yesterday, and it was the same as before.
Although he felt that he was in great condition after waking up this morning.
"Condition?"
Tang Yu touched his chin, lost in thought.
… …
"After getting the system, my aptitude is linked to the level of the territory. Under the level 6 territory, it's not bad. It's considered as a weak A-rank."
Tang Yu had discussed with Elaine and other followers before. There was a measurement standard.
The conversion rate of D-rank's source qi (including the absorption of other potions) was often only 20% -30%.
C-rank's conversion rate was 40% -50%.
B-rank's 60% -70%.
A-rank's 80% -90%.
As for S-rank's aptitude, it's a completely different level. It has reached the level of 'Qi Sea has grown and learned to cultivate on its own', crushing everything.
This was just the difference in energy absorption and utilization.
Of course, aptitude doesn't mean everything. It can be improved, you can spend spirit stones to change your fate. But it has to be said that the strength of aptitude is really obvious. With a strong aptitude and a lot of spirit stones, you can really do whatever you want.
Tang Yu roughly calculated, "My cultivation efficiency just now is close to Elaine's."
This is a very considerable improvement.
It means he can cultivate to the peak of the awakening stage faster, and even more smoothly break through to the transcendent.
It's just that this cultivation speed is a bit confusing.
He didn't continue to cultivate and found Elaine and Nancy.
Their vitality is strong, the two's injuries have basically recovered.
Elaine basically cultivated the rest of the time except for work, not to mention Nancy, her Qi Sea runs on its own 24 hours a day.
"My cultivation speed has also increased, about 5.615% …"
Elaine thought for half a second and gave a 'about' answer.
Tang Yu's mouth twitched and looked at Nancy.
She tilted her head and stretched out one finger, two fingers, three fingers, "It seems like three … five … seven … no, I can't figure it out!"
Tang Yu covered his face.
After leaving, he asked the others one after another.
But their cultivation speed didn't improve.
"That means only me, Elaine, and Nancy have changed, and the change happened last night. Then … it must be related to the alien race!"
Yesterday, not only did they kill a dozen transcendent powerhouses, but they also uprooted the two races.
"If you think about it carefully, it seems that after the 'Endless Thunder' killed several transcendents, there seemed to be some changes."
Tang Yu wasn't sure. After all, the situation was tense at the time.
But after the destruction of the two races, the changes seemed to be more obvious.
"Maybe … it's a reward?"
Because hunters can grow quickly, they can absorb and refine the spirit power after killing demonic beasts. In the early stage, it's much faster than the cultivation speed.
But now, Tang Yu has gradually ignored the existence of the spirit power. After all, it's almost useless to him.
The spirit power wasn't awakened. In Elaine's world, it was never heard of.
In addition, the alien race said that the Origin Star was special. Perhaps the increase in cultivation speed was the reward for killing the two races last night.
He didn't know if this improvement was permanent or time-limited. Tang Yu could only extend today's cultivation time, from five hours … to six hours.
He felt okay, he didn't feel full, but he can still continue to cultivate. This was also one of the significant characteristics of the improvement in aptitude.
He cultivated for another two hours.
In the quiet room, Tang Yu opened his eyes. The Nightmare Puppet No. 1 he sent had arrived at the Mirage Mountain.
He immediately stopped his cultivation, shifted his gaze to the Nightmare Puppet and entered the possession state.
The overlapping shadows of the Endless Mountain Range were still reflected in the sky near Jingcheng.
The nearest transit station to the entrance of the Mirage Mountain Range had been built into a steel fortress. Jingcheng couldn't make Longsong Cannons, but they set up a lot of large energy cannons to stop the monsters that ran out of the Mirage Mountain Range.
But there were very few wandering hunters active in this area.
There were countless treasures in the Mirage Mountain Range. There were awakening fruits, liquefied source spring water, and rumors of the existence of ancient ruins. The hunters who first entered the Mirage Mountain Range also gained a lot. But as the outermost area was guarded by countless hunters, the slightly valuable medicinal herbs were uprooted.
If you want to gain something, you must continue to go deeper. However, the inner circle of the Mirage Mountain Range was full of danger.
The hunters who broke into the inner circle could be said to have no chance of survival. Even the Jingcheng officials gave up exploring the Mirage Mountain Range.
Tang Yu himself was the same.
At first, he and Nancy went deep into the Mirage Mountain Range. Nancy was strong, and ordinary monsters could easily cross the area that the Jingcheng officials regarded as a dead end.
However, Nancy's transcendent aura, no matter how hard she tried to restrain it, could easily alert the monsters. Not to mention that Nancy's control of her power and aura wasn't strong.
It was difficult to explore the Mirage Mountain Range. After much difficulty, they finally reached the nearest palace complex to the entrance of the mountain range. They thought it was an intact relic. But when they looked, they found the palace was in ruins. They couldn't find any valuable clues.
Later, when they continued to explore deeper, they even encountered a Rank-2 monster. After the two escaped thrilling escape with the Town Portal Scroll, Tang Yu followed his heart's choice and gave up exploring the Mirage Mountain Range.
"Nightingale's strength isn't as good as Nancy's, but it's a puppet. Its aura isn't obvious, and it can travel between real and virtual worlds. It's perfect for exploring the Mirage Mountain Range. Those palaces should be left by humans before the Third Era. If I can find an intact one, I should be able to understand the secret of Planet of Origin.
"Let's say there's a terrifying Rank-3 monster in the Mirage Mountain Range. The Nightingale puppet can't escape. Although it's a painful loss, it's still bearable."
Thinking of this, Tang Yu controlled the Nightingale puppet to enter the shallow illusory space. Maintaining a faint shadow, it flew into the mountain range.
It maintained a moderate speed all the way.
Flying over the Black Swamp, Gravel Forest, Mirror Lake, Elephant Nose Mountain … Soon, the Nightingale puppet flew to the ruins of the palace complex and flew straight into the depths of the mountain range.
It was called the inner circle of the mountain range, but in fact, no one knew how big the Mirage Mountain Range was.
During this period, the Nightingale also attracted the attention of some extraordinary monsters. But Tang Yu controlled the Nightingale and immediately escaped into the deep space to avoid unnecessary battles.
After flying for several hours, Tang Yu found nothing. He was a little impatient, but he couldn't let the Nightingale explore on its own.
Boom!!!
A powerful energy wave came from afar.
Tang Yu hesitated for a moment and controlled the Nightingale to fly carefully.
Behind a mountain, the half-illusory Nightingale looked into the distance.
Boundless energy radiance overflowed in all directions. The earth cracked and the trees and rocks were turned into fine powder. At the center of the explosion, a well-proportioned palace stood tall.
A seemingly thin layer of light firmly protected the building complex.
It was an intact ruin!
The Nightingale's eyes lit up. Then, he looked at the front of the palace complex. A group of humanoid monsters with mouths that occupied most of their faces were bombarding the light film of the palace.
That aura …
