Chapter 504: Star Gate Ruins
Expedition Team?
Ji Xinghuo was originally a little interested when he heard the first half of Kui Gang's sentence.
But when I heard that the chance of being promoted to a Shepherd Saint would be increased by 30%, at least, I immediately calmed down.
The Yuan Magnetic Array, the top astrological array of the dynasty, is so difficult to meet the conditions. Under the most ideal condition, it can only increase the probability by 5%. So what kind of harvest is needed to increase the certainty by 30%?
The higher the return, the greater the risk!
Everyone knows this truth. Qui-Gon is not the kind of unreliable person. He must have thought carefully before he said it.
There was no movement on the face of Ji Xinghuo's shadow clone, "I need to know more information."
Kui Gang raised his hand and turned his palm towards Ji Xinghuo.
The silicon giant's body is covered with crystal-like armor, and his palms are also in the form of hard crystal, flashing rapidly like a screen.
The faint light formed words and disappeared in a flash.
"The ruins of the former ancient literary star gate."
Ji Xinghuo was shocked when he saw the content clearly.
Pre-ancient civilization refers to the era before the True Dragon Dynasty. The True Dragon Dynasty ruled this area for more than a million years. Before that, there were many civilizations, many of which were more powerful civilizations and countries than the True Dragon Dynasty. .
Although these civilizations have long disappeared in the long river of time, there are still many relics remaining.
After the ancient civilization died, the star gate also closed.
By locating some ruins and reopening the star gate into the galaxy, we may be able to find the huge wealth left behind by ancient civilizations.
Of course, this is also dangerous.
Generally speaking, relics that can survive for more than a million years will most likely be protected by powerful forces on the planet that the star gate leads to, such as intelligent mechanical legions, space fortresses, planetary protection systems, etc.
There are also some mysterious things. Even the Saint of the Shepherd Star may lose his life if he is not careful.
But maybe by luck, the guardian power has collapsed.
Just enter the star gate to pick up the leak.
Ji Xinghuo thought for a while, then a wisp of black smoke formed words in front of him, and asked: "Which ancient civilization?"
There were many pre-ancient civilizations in the True Dragon Realm, leaving more than ten written records. Three of them once ruled the entire realm. There was even one pre-ancient civilization that at its peak had an area that exceeded that of the True Dragon Dynasty, spanning three continents. star region.
"Blue Empire." Qui-Gon's answer appeared on his palm.
Ji Xinghuo's thoughts turned out to be true.
The Azure Empire is the ancient civilization that once spanned three star regions. It has been destroyed for more than three million years.
This is the most powerful civilization ever born in the history of the True Dragon Realm.
The reason why it is called "Blue Empire" is because the mother planet of this civilization is the Blue Star. The color of the sky on this planet is extremely magnificent and unique. The worship of this color has become the background color of the Blue Empire.
Unlike the True Dragon Dynasty, the Azure Empire is rooted in the Milky Way. They are an interstellar civilization.
For the Azure Empire, the star realm is just a bridge for interstellar navigation.
This sowed the seeds for the downfall of civilization.
The Azure Empire is keen on planet transformation and colonization. Until now, the birth of many alien races in the True Dragon Realm has benefited from the planet transformation plan millions of years ago. The genes of some races contain fragments of "Azure Stars".
Although the Azure Empire has long since perished, their influence has not disappeared and is preserved to this day in another way.
Therefore, the Azure Empire has the largest number of civilizational ruins.
Most of the ruins excavated in the True Dragon Dynasty are related to the Azure Empire.
But it is also the most dangerous.
The technology of the Azure Star people is very advanced, especially artificial intelligence and mechanical creation. Looking at the entire galaxy, there are few civilizations that can match it. It is far better than the current True Dragon Dynasty, and comparable to the Star Alliance and the Eternal Empire.
However, such a powerful interstellar empire perished almost overnight.
They were occupied in the star realm, all the star gates were destroyed, and the tens of thousands of planets they ruled lost contact, becoming isolated islands in the galaxy, isolated and helpless, and were eventually defeated one by one by terrible enemies.
As for who the enemy is, no one knows yet.
Some people say it is a hostile civilization from outside the territory, some people say it is a peerless powerhouse above the eighth level, and some even say it is a star god!
After destroying the Azure Empire, this enemy left no trace and simply disappeared.
The True Dragon Realm has entered a long period of division.
Over the course of two million years, multiple civilizations rose up, unified the realm, and then quickly declined.
It wasn't until a million years ago that the True Dragon Dynasty unified the realm and established a country.
The True Dragons learned the lessons of the Azure Empire and were based on the star realm. The development of civilization was biased towards personal evolution and did not pay attention to the Milky Way planet.
As a star realm, the True Dragon Dynasty's management of galactic planets and alien races is very loose, and its dominance is far less than that of the Azure Empire. However, the vitality of civilization is more tenacious, and its reign lasts far longer than any previous civilization, and it continues to this day.
However, the territory of the True Dragon Dynasty was therefore limited to its own territory, unable to develop outwards and across the star region.
Both civilizations have their own strengths and weaknesses.
Historical knowledge flashed through Ji Xinghuo's mind. If it were the Star Gate ruins of the Azure Empire, the harvest would be huge.
It may not be a lie to increase the chance of promotion by 30%.
Seeing that Ji Xinghuo didn't respond for a long time, Kui Gang thought he was going to refuse, and another line of text flashed across his palm: "I am currently exploring and locating the ruins, and there is still a lot of preliminary work to be done. It will take a long time to actually open the star gate and enter it."
"How long?" Ji Xinghuo asked.
"Not sure." Qui-Gon replied with his palm: "It will take at least two seasons, and it may take five seasons. You can think about it slowly."
A year in the astral world is divided into two seasons, and one season is equal to 1.85 years on earth.
Two to five seasons is almost 4 to 9 Earth years.
Ji Xinghuo was speechless.
However, he quickly understood that the average lifespan of a silicon giant reaches 200 seasons. Qui-Gon is a sixth-level powerhouse and can live longer, reaching 500 seasons. Therefore, he works at a slow pace and has no sense of urgency.
Two or three seasons are equivalent to several months for Qui-Gon on Earth.
He is now the King of Heaven and can live to be four to five hundred years old.
It’s just that I’m a little uncomfortable with it.
"If I agree to join the expedition, how should I contact you?" Ji Xinghuo asked.
A large series of complex identification codes were displayed on Qui-Gon's palm, "This is my astral terminal serial number. I will pass through the Titanium Ring City regularly. You can send me a message, or you can leave a mark here."
"knew."
Ji Xinghuo memorized the hundreds of identification codes after just reading them once, turned around and walked out of the courtyard, escaping into the void out of Kui Gang's sight.
Traveling in the void to hundreds of kilometers away from the Titanium Ring City, Jiuyou flew out of the body and transformed into a desolate man. He returned to the Titanium Ring City with the "Power of Stars" alien species, while Ji Xinghuo's shadow clone dissipated on the spot. .
Earth station.
Ji Xinghuo was doing two things, talking to Cheng Sheng in the tea room.
Every astral month, Cheng Sheng will send a report to the head of state, and important news from the earth will also be sent.
For more than a year, the situation on earth has been relatively stable.
But this is only on the surface. There is also some turmoil on the American Federation side.
Since his debut in the Global Marathon, the third-generation Sun King has changed the style of the previous two generations of Sun Kings. He has frequently appeared in the media, given high-profile interviews, and used his influence to intervene in domestic affairs. This has caused public opinion turmoil many times, and he has publicly and openly The United States and the United States government confronted each other and even pointed the finger at the consortium behind it.
This won the Sun King a lot of support and his reputation rose step by step, but it caused a lot of dissatisfaction among the upper echelons of the American League.
The Sun King silenced the opposition with his strength and prestige.
But this is only temporary.
The head of state made a judgment on the situation based on the intelligence collected. A civil strife was likely to occur in the American Federation. The Asia-Pacific Community will not miss this great opportunity. Even if it cannot directly weaken the United States, it will still take action against its allies.
Multiple plans have been made, just waiting for a trigger.
"spark."
Cheng Sheng whispered, "According to the head of state's prediction, the next few years will be a critical period for the development of the earth's structure, and I don't want to miss it."
"You want to go back to Earth?" Ji Xinghuo guessed what he was thinking.
"That's right." Cheng Sheng nodded, "I plan to attack the King of Heaven, and after success, I will return to Earth to contribute to the country. After so many years in Titanium Ring City, I have almost forgotten what Earth is like, and I miss it very much."
"I wish you success!" Ji Xinghuo encouraged him.
Before him, Cheng Sheng was the youngest legendary stranger on earth. He was promoted to legend at the age of 28. Now he is 52 years old and has stayed in the legendary stage for more than 20 years. He has accumulated enough and it is not difficult to be promoted to king.
Titanium Cobalt Blue has also been helping and providing training resources. Cheng Sheng enjoys treatment that is no less than that of members of the Titanium Cobalt family.
However, Cheng Sheng is not a real dragon after all.
If he can fuse with the "Dragon Veiner" and gain power amplification and copy abilities from his own Steel Edge Dragon, his strength will definitely rise to the next level.
Ji Xinghuo has a "Dragon Veiner" variant in his hand, but it cannot be used. Without official recognition from the True Dragon Dynasty, he is a "Blood Stealer". This is the most serious crime in the True Dragon Dynasty and cannot be easily violated.
After thinking about it, he whispered: "If you return to Earth and don't come to the True Dragon Dynasty for a short time, you can consider merging it."
As he spoke, he took out a piece of white bone fragment, which was a dragon-veined alien species from Cang Huogui.
Cheng Sheng's pupils suddenly shrank.
"dragon……"
He didn't finish, "Where did you get it?"
"I have been in the True Dragon Dynasty for so long. Is it strange to have this alien species?" Ji Xinghuo's face was calm. There were several true dragons who died in his hands, including sixth-level dragon masters, but he only collected one. Dragon Veiner.
Cheng Sheng stared at the alien with emotion in his eyes, but he still shook his head and said, "It's impossible for me to never return to the True Dragon Dynasty."
Ji Xinghuo said: "You return to Earth and fuse first to increase your strength. In the future, I will find a way to give you the identity of a true dragon and become the Dragon Lord in an upright manner."
"This is difficult to do." Cheng Sheng hesitated.
He has been in Titanium Ring City for so many years, but he has not found such a channel, and he cannot tell Titanium Cobalt Blue yet.
"It's actually not that difficult." Ji Xinghuo smiled.
The management of the True Dragon Dynasty is very loose. As long as the bid is high enough, there will always be True Dragon people who sell their identities in exchange for benefits. I was worried about Titanium Cobalt Blue's opinion in Titanium Ring City and couldn't do it behind her back, so I had to find another place.
When I was on Donghuang Island, I discovered many such activities through electromagnetic induction, and some small families relied on this to make a fortune.
A blood thief can be transformed into a true dragon with a maximum of two thousand dragon crystals.
It's cheap, four to five hundred dragon crystals is enough.
After hearing what Ji Xinghuo said, Cheng Sheng's eyes suddenly lit up, "Then I'll accept it, Master Hu Lan..."
"Behead first and tell later. She actually doesn't care." Ji Xinghuo said.
"good!"
Cheng Sheng took over the dragon vein and put it away.
"You can also take these." Ji Xinghuo took out three more dragon crystals, all with a face value of 10,000 ether crystals, with a total value of 30,000, and said, "I don't know what kind of alien species you are short of, buy it yourself. , or purchase apocalypse-level weapons and equipment.”
"Holy shit!"
Cheng Sheng's eyes widened, he was shocked by Ji Xinghuo's generosity, and he envied: "Are the core members of the Titanium Cobalt family treated so well?"
"How is that possible?" Ji Xinghuo couldn't laugh or cry, "I earned it all myself."
"This is too much, I dare not accept it." Cheng Sheng shook his head with difficulty.
"You don't have to be pretentious, I have no other purpose." Ji Xinghuo guessed his thoughts, "As your strength increases, you can make greater contributions to the country. If the head of state knows about it, he will let you accept it."
"But I didn't do anything. I can't monopolize so many resources." Cheng Sheng still insisted.
Ji Xinghuo smiled and said, "I just gave Sister Lan 500,000 dragon crystals to exchange for resources. These 30,000 are extra from me."
"ah?"
Cheng Sheng was stunned.
Only then did he realize that tens of thousands of dragon crystals were nothing to Ji Xinghuo, and he really had no agenda.
"Then I'm welcome." Cheng Sheng put away the dragon crystal happily. With these 30,000 ether crystals, he was more sure of being promoted to the king of heaven. Then he went to buy a spear from the Apocalypse One Star. The person who fused the dragon veins had the strength. surge.
Even if it's only level six, it can still be in the top ten on the global combat power list.
"Starfire, when will you return to Earth?"
"Wait a little longer." Ji Xinghuo had already considered it, "I plan to cultivate quietly in the Titanium-Cobalt family for a few months, and reach the upper limit of level six and one as soon as possible. When I start to condense the star seed nodes, I will almost be able to return to Earth."
Cheng Sheng was shocked again. He was about to enter the second stage of the sixth stage so soon?
"I am leaving."
Ji Xinghuo stood up and was about to leave.
The electromagnetic induction swept across the earth station and paused. The branch-horned cloud deer had been fostered here for more than half a year and had almost been forgotten. However, this temporary mount has little potential and is of little use.
So he told Cheng Sheng that if the Zhijiaoyunlu was destined to be a stranger from Earth, he could give it away.
Ji Xinghuo turned into a bolt of lightning and flew up into the sky, falling into the Shangti Ring City.
Return to the titanium cobalt blue manor room.
Soon, Jiuyou came back with the power of the stars, handed the alien species into Ji Xinghuo's hands, and an interface message popped up in front of him.
[Alien: Power of Stars]
[Grade: Starfall]
[Fusion success rate: 94%]
[Can be upgraded: Yes]
Silicon giant Qui Gang said that the power of stars is the best power system. Ji Xinghuo obtained the information from Wanxiang Xingpu and found that this was indeed the case.
Its principle is to infuse star power into the body and convert the energy into a mechanical force to perform work. Since the effects of forces are mutual, this will produce a reverse force on the body.
If you exceed the upper limit of endurance, you will get injured instead.
Therefore, the stronger the physical fitness, the higher the increase in the power of the stars.
When the power of the stars is activated, this part of the star power that is poured into the whole body is completely occupied and can no longer be used to perform other powers.
This is equivalent to a reduction in the total number of stars.
Moreover, the higher the level of the power of the stars and the stronger the increase, the more star power is occupied.
After the alien reaches the second stage of the sixth stage and condenses the star seed nodes in the body, the power of the stars can also be relied on to increase the power of many star seeds, and the effect will be better. So this ability is called "The Power of the Stars", and the stars refer to both star power and star seeds.
"What a mutant!"
“Perfect for me!”
Ji Xinghuo praised it, then pressed the star-like alien species on his chest, blended into the skin and flesh, and entered the star gland.
