As predicted by Jing Jiu, Jian Xilai stayed on the bamboo chair for a while after his ascension, and then parted ways with Cao Yuan.
The permanent star outside Chaotian was even more remote than the Planet Lindeng. If the ascendants didn't wish to plunge into the endless darkness and head toward the light, they would encounter the civilization of the Federation of the Milky Way one day, as long as they weren't killed by the monsters of the Sea of Dark Matter on their way there.
The first contact between Jian Xilai and the Human Federation of the Milky Way was a mining spaceship.
It had to be said that he was truly shocked at that moment. Even his Sword Heart, which had been tempered for countless years, was almost shaken.
He broke open the cargo compartment of the mining spaceship and followed the spaceship to Planet Lindeng. He never left again.
There was no other reason than to be wary of the unknown.
Even if he was a powerful ascender, he would not expose himself before he grasped all the details of this world and confirmed that it was safe.
This lonely mineral planet far from the center of the Federation of the Milky Way was the most suitable place.
…
…
There was a soft beep.
Jian Xilai pulled back his left hand and put the bracelet under his sleeve. He walked into the remote control room after greeting his colleagues with a nod.
After studying for dozens of days without rest, he knew everything about this world, especially the mining area. He arranged a new identity for himself through the computer of the mining area's personnel department, and he did not forget to apply for a disability tax exemption certificate.
He was going to enter this civilization one day, so he was preparing in advance, and he needed to do some things.
Jian Xilai took care of some routine work in the operating room and inputted a few instructions that only he could understand. He took a sip of the hot tea, put down the teacup, and headed for the outside.
As he left the room, he glanced at the teacup.
Passing through the underground tunnel, he arrived outside the protective shield and slowly walked towards the east.
The building of the mining area was getting further and further behind him, but he didn't even glance at it.
He was not wearing protective clothing or a hood. He looked like a disabled worker who had lost his way.
The star in the distance was really small, like a candle next door. No matter how they walked, it didn't get any brighter.
There were no mountains or rivers on the surface of Planet Lindeng. There were only undulating rocks, which made it difficult to walk.
Especially when they arrived at the mining area, the ground was filled with bottomless pits. It was very dangerous, and visually, it also gave people an extremely terrifying feeling.
"What a scene of desolation."
Jian Xilai didn't like this place, and he missed the green water of Aoyama in Chaotian.
Suddenly, a crisp sound came from afar, reverberating endlessly in the mine pit, echoing unceasingly.
It was the sound of gunfire.
A light mirror had appeared in front of him, and there were faint sword patterns flowing on it.
There was a black cylinder embedded in the translucent mirror.
If Jing Jiu had been there, he would have recognized the black cylinder as the high-explosive bullet that had exploded in his hand outside the museum that day.
An electromagnetic gun was aimed at Jian Xilai from dozens of kilometers away.
Jian Xilai reached out his right hand and took down the black cylinder from the light mirror, and threw it into the mining pit before him expressionlessly.
After an unknown period of time, a muffled rumble came from the depths of the mine, and the ground trembled a little.
The mine was 3.4 kilometers deep, so one could imagine the power of the electromagnetic gun.
Just as a loud rumble came from the depths of the mine, countless bullets poured down like a torrential rain.
Three automatic gun platforms rose from the ground and began to fire wildly.
Countless bullet shells fell to the ground, making tinkling sounds. The bright lights could be seen everywhere in the gloomy sky.
It seemed that his opponent had already taken control of the computer system of the mine. That was why he hadn't activated the anti-air equipment earlier.
With this thought in mind, Jian Xilai reached out his right forefinger and aimed at an automatic gun platform.
The translucent light mirror had already turned into a cover, covering his body like an upside-down glass bowl.
The bullets landed on the surface like a torrential rain, but they couldn't penetrate the surface and dropped to the ground. The bullets were as flat as a piece of paper.
The sword light shot out soundlessly from his forefinger and destroyed an automatic gun platform in an instant. In the next moment, two other automatic gun platforms were destroyed as well as illuminated by the sword light.
It grew quiet again in the surroundings. There was a commotion in the distant department of the mine, but nobody came out.
Jian Xilai turned to the west.
Illuminated by the dim light of the permanent star, the huge battleship looked like a black monster.
As this battleship broke through the atmosphere and came from the west, Jian Xilai had sensed the existence of his opponent.
It seemed that he hadn't sensed anything. He went to work as usual, but he didn't activate the anti-air defense system of the Planet Lindeng.
As such, he left the residential area and came to this barren and dangerous mining pit.
He knew that there was an emergency lifeboat hidden by the higher-ups of the department of the mine in the mining pit up ahead. The lifeboat couldn't travel as fast as the battleship, so he had no choice but to let the lifeboat leave by following the automatic program. Then, he would return to the department of the mine from the underground and hide in the No. 13 mine.
That mine was filled with highly radioactive ores, so many instruments would be rendered ineffective. Nobody believed that someone could hide in the deepest part of the ores.
Seventy days later, the radioactive ores would be sent to the Distant Gaze Transportation Base.
This was the escape route that he had prepared for himself.
As for the battleship in the distance, he didn't think that it could kill him.
Those weapons of fairy energy, which were called nuclear bombs in this world, had a powerful explosion, but the area of high temperature and light that could threaten him was no more than a few dozen square kilometers. As for the shock waves, he didn't care about them at all. According to the saying in Chaotian, he was a true fairy man. A fairy man wouldn't be afraid of the Chaotic Wind.
The most troublesome part was the radiation, like the ores in the No. 13 mine, which would affect his fairy body to a certain extent.
If his opponent chose to be shot, the effect would be even greater.
Well, he didn't need to worry about this for the time being. Even the fastest nuclear bombs in this world were still too slow compared to the speed of a fairy man. Even if tens of thousands of nuclear bombs exploded on the surface of the planet at the same time, he would still be able to pass through the flowers without being touched by any of them.
Of course, he didn't forget the standard laser guns on the battleships of the Federation.
The battleship was still more than ten thousand kilometers away from him. Based on the speed of light in this world, it would take the laser guns 0.3 seconds to hit him after they were fired. Wasn't it enough time for him to evade them? Of course, he couldn't evade them when he saw them coming; it would be too late by then. He had to keep moving to make sure that the battleship couldn't lock him down.
If the battleship intended to attack him with the laser guns, it had to get closer to the surface of the planet and to him.
However, if the battleship dared come within one hundred kilometers of him, he would launch a counterattack.
He would break the protective shield of the battleship and hack into the computer of the battleship, and then destroy the engine system of the battleship from the inside.
It was true that he was an expert in data analysis.
If he could continue his peaceful life, he would go to the hidden network in a few days and check out those rumored Cloud Ghosts.
The people in this world thought they were powerful because they knew some strange tricks; it was truly ridiculous.
Should he show his weakness … and then seize this battleship?
A figure was gliding on the surface of the planet full of mine pits at a high speed, bringing out countless sword lights from the overalls at an unimaginably high speed.
Jian Xilai thought of what he had just said, feeling calm and confident.
He had nothing to worry about unless the battleship had a weapon of a higher state that could destroy the Planet Lindeng.
It was better to be safe than sorry.
Jian Xilai gave up the idea of turning around and seizing the battleship, and kept on gliding forward.
The mine pit where the emergency boat was hidden was not far ahead.
Suddenly, he halted his steps.
Faint ripples appeared in his eyes that were as calm as an ancient well.
A person walked out from the empty space up ahead.
That person wore a black military uniform and a red overcoat. His appearance was awe-inspiring, and his energy was unfathomable.
The wind blew over the surface of the planet and tousled the overcoat slightly.
Jian Xilai looked at the person in Silence and asked, "Are you an ascendant?"
He had thought that the former ascendants might still be in this world.
However, the Western Sea Sword School originated from the Foggy Island in the South Ocean, and it had no master or seniors who had ascended. As such, he had no intention of finding those ascendants.
The person said, "This world calls us the cocoon breakers."
After a moment of silence, Jian Xilai asked, "May I ask for your advice?"
The person said, "This world calls me General Li."
Like Jing Jiu, Jian Xilai began to think about who among the ascendants in Chaotian had the surname Li. Soon, he found four possible answers.
General Li gazed over Jian Xilai's shoulder at the marks he had left on the surface of the planet.
The sword lights had dissipated, leaving only a faint sword wills.
"Your sword work is pretty good."
General Li pulled back his gaze and said to Jian Xilai, "I hope you can pass my test."
"Test?" asked Jian Xilai.
General Li said, "There's no heavenly punishment here."
This meant that he regarded himself as the heavenly dao, which was extremely arrogant.
Jian Xilai didn't ask what would happen if he passed the test. "Do you have a death wish?" he demanded expressionlessly while looking at the other person.
As soon as he said this, countless ores on the ground started rolling and then drifted up. They turned slowly and aimed at General Li with their sharp ends.
The machinery in the mining pit raised its arm and pointed it at General Li.
The wind became fiercer and blew towards General Li.
All the objects on this planet seemed to have turned into swords, moving according to his will.
General Li remarked lightly, "All in One Sword. Long time no see."
The distant battleship was approaching at a high speed.
The atmosphere seemed to be on the verge of being torn apart.
Jian Xilai launched his most powerful strike without hesitation.
Countless ores shot toward General Li like a rainstorm of swords.
The mining machines turned into countless metal fragments and attacked like arrows.
The cold wind had also turned into swords.
Even the bullet shells that had fallen to the ground in the distance jumped up and shot toward this place along with a whooshing sound.
The large cloak fluttered slightly.
General Li raised his right hand.
The ores with sharp edges, the broken pieces of machinery, the cold wind and the hot bullets were all suspended in the air.
