Chapter 177: The post-war wasteland, the new school of cultivating immortals
"This is a direct entry into the post-apocalyptic wasteland world." Gu Shanhai complained. He discovered a terrible problem. After fighting for more than ten years, the entire world was filled with wasteland, radiation, malignant changes, etc. were everywhere.
He didn't know whether technology had improved or not. The world of cultivating immortals through technology would most likely turn into a wasteland cultivating immortals.
It must be ordinary people who suffer the most. The monks with good foundation quickly used the new immortal cultivation technology to form a new form.
That's right, these monks have mechanically ascended.
What's even more ridiculous is that they are not just mechanical ascension, because the monks themselves are more idealistic types, they also mix in spiritual ascension.
Most monks have transformed themselves into almost Terminators. Special materials are refined into magic weapons, and then combined with modern technology to form a new way of cultivating immortals.
More importantly, it also supplemented their originally weak bodies. If this was placed in those fantasy and fairy worlds, they would probably be able to become top bosses.
Fighting? They run the program directly, and the strong logic computer is combined with the powerful perception ability and magic weapon affinity. This is called invincibility.
There is no shortage of mana. The central energy Dantian and high-energy furnace equipment have high capacity, pure energy, and fast recovery. Even Tianjiao is not so powerful.
As a result, Gu Shanhai was a little embarrassed. How could the Xuanwei Sect be destroyed?
After asking about it, it turned out that Xuanwei Sect was so cold that it had completely shrunk, because most of the monks inside were monks from the imperial court.
The monks of the sect have not had time to keep up with the times. Although they are already reforming towards the new sect, it is because there is too much controversy among the upper echelons.
It is normal for the new method to be controversial, but there will not be too many obstacles, but this time it is a knife on the body, and even special materials and magic weapons become part of itself, which seems a bit too scary.
On the contrary, the imperial court did not have this problem and vigorously promoted the new law in the early stages, creating an extremely favorable situation.
Just with such a small hesitation, the sect's power was suppressed. Now most of the sects have actually been forcibly broken up by the court and incorporated into the establishment. At first, these sects said that I will not eat from your court even if I starve to death. Later, It means it smells really good.
There are also a small number of sects who uphold the arrogance of me, such as the Xuanwei sect. Their sect has a long history and feels that it can expand again and become the best in the world. They would rather die than surrender. Then they are naturally suppressed and their disciples are almost scattered.
No matter how big the Xuanwei Sect is, it can't compare to the imperial court. Even if it was once the number one in the world, it was only once.
Therefore, with the expansion of the imperial court, resources were naturally squeezed, so they were so poor that they almost had no food to eat, and their arms could not hold up their thighs.
The disciples have no resources and cannot even support themselves. When they go out to make a living, there is no basic guarantee. No matter how loyal they are, there is nothing they can do.
After receiving this news, Gu Shanhai was a little bit dumbfounded. He was a dignified person, but now he was in a state where he couldn't even eat enough.
There is no way for monks in this world to live without food, unless they transform into new monks, and through the mechanical equipment formed by their various immortal cultivation technologies, they can achieve the goal of not needing to eat, but only need to convert kinetic energy, potential energy, etc. into energy for replenishment.
Of course, in addition to this new school of mechanical ascension monks, there are also a large number of technologies that have exploded, such as high-frequency vibration cutting knives, Geng metal exoskeleton robes, swarm armor-breaking robots and other various immortal technology strategies.
From the current point of view, the killing calamity should be coming to an end. The reason why it is still there is because the harsh environment created by the previous war has not subsided. After the environmental problems are solved, the killing calamity will probably dissipate.
If delays continue without resolution, problems may continue to arise.
Ordinary people have died too many times, and the monks are also a little helpless. If they want to continue to develop, they must recuperate, and the prerequisite for recuperation is a good environment. In such a harsh ecology, survival is a problem, let alone redevelopment. .
However, in Gu Shanhai's view, these things are not a big problem. With the level of immortality cultivation technology that is now emerging, purifying environmental pollution is a relatively simple task.
The real problem still lies in these shrinking sects. Although these sects are already under the jurisdiction of the imperial court, if they are really the same on the outside, there will be no major sects that ignore the laws of the imperial court and compete for the position of mountain god.
Once these sect disciples have established themselves in the court, and the sect contacts them again, they might get into trouble again.
For the sect, these disciples and elders still have feelings, because most of these people were born and raised here since childhood.
Therefore, the best way is to take advantage of this opportunity to deal with all the sects and disperse all the sect disciples. By the time the next generation comes, the sects will disappear without a trace.
Fortunately, these matters are not Gu Shanhai's business. What the court wants to do is the court's business. Gu Shanhai has only enemies and no friends here. Even if the world explodes, he can still sit on a small bench with a popcorn in his hands. The last sentence of "gloating over one's misfortune" is another highlight.
Besides, there are capable people in this world, so there is no need for him to remind them about this kind of thing. The sect's suppression and co-optation are most likely the result of this method.
"What the hell?"
The road to Xuanwei Gate was actually relatively peaceful, and he did not encounter any danger. Even though Xuanwei Gate was relatively far away from him, it would take several days for Xiaobai to fly.
Therefore, it is inevitable to encounter some strange things on the road.
Just like now, Gu Shanhai saw a huge bird dormant among the clouds, constantly absorbing water vapor to support itself.
"It looks familiar." Gu Shanhai glanced from a distance, peering through the clouds, and saw a monster that looked like a big bird.
Its shape is like an owl with a human face, a pheasant body and a dog tail.
"Human-faced owl, why is this thing still there?"
Gu Shanhai was a little curious. He knew that there were magical beings in this world, such as mountain ghosts. Now he actually met a human-faced owl in the sky. This was also good luck.
This thing is said to be able to bring about severe drought. The human-faced owl in this world seems to be quite scientific. As long as the water vapor in the clouds is absorbed, it will not rain, and severe drought will be normal.
It should not be the same species as the one in Shan Hai Jing, Shan Hai Jing's is stronger. The other party's drought ability should be similar to laws or rules, which is irresistible. It is not like the human-faced owl in this world, which looks a little stretched.
"The radiation concentration is so high, so this thing can't be some kind of spiritual beast that has suffered radiation mutation," Gu Shanhai complained.
The human-faced owl in this world sounds very noble, but it is actually an owl. It is called a human-faced owl because its face is shaped like a human face, not because it actually has a human face.
"The large cuckoo chicken has mutated like this, it's really a bit...fuck!" Before Gu Shanhai could finish speaking, he saw a human-faced owl coming towards him, and its sharp claws were not small.
Apparently he was planning to treat Gu Shanhai as dinner.
As for why it is not Xiaobai, it is very simple. Because Xiaobai is too big. The owl preys on rats. Even if the enlarged human-faced owl does not prey on rats, it will not prey on creatures that are much larger than it. .
Gu Shanhai's body shape is very suitable for the diet of a human-faced owl, a large rat.
Xiaobai reacted quickly and charged directly. The huge antlers directly hit the human-faced owl's claws.
Bang~
The human-faced owl that was hunting for food was knocked away immediately. It was obviously a bit strong on the outside but strong on the inside.
It's simply a waste of such a big physique.
After being pushed away, the human-faced owl naturally fled in panic. It wanted to leave, but Gu Shanhai would not let it leave like this at this time.
You can choose to start a war, but it is up to Gu Shanhai to decide when to end the war.
Qinglong stuck out his head and breathed out dragon breath.
This is the Mana Halo·Beam version.
The dragon's breath directly hit the human-faced owl, and a large number of negative states erupted in the body in an instant, from burning to freezing to curses, poison, etc., and it fell from the sky as soon as it entered the soul.
"I'm overestimating this thing. It's really a mutated owl." Gu Shanhai complained.
He thought he had actually met a human-faced owl.
Xiaobai charged forward, and Gu Shanhai reached out and grabbed the owl that fell down.
"This thing is really puffy. It's so big. Except for the real height, the rest are just fluffy feathers." Gu Shanhai grabbed the talons of the mutated owl and examined it carefully.
Although this thing is not a real human-faced owl, it is really not light. It weighs at least about seven tons, which is about the same as an adult African elephant.
"Holy shit, how did this thing fly?" Gu Shanhai didn't quite understand, but he was certain of one thing, that is, he had found a treasure.
"It's strange, how did I pick up this thing?" Gu Shanhai was speechless.
He suspected that it was due to Bi Luo in his previous life or his identity as the reincarnation of a mountain ghost. Otherwise, he would not have bumped into this good thing for no reason.
"Wait, it's a good thing for me, but if I change my mind, would it be a murderous disaster?"
Gu Shanhai possesses the abilities of Bi Luo from his previous life and the identity formed from the pages of history books. He is completely an aborigine who has been integrated into this world. He is not a gangster, so it is normal for him to encounter a murderer.
It is also very simple who owns the killing calamity. If Gu Shanhai dies, it belongs to him. If the mutated owl dies, it belongs to him.
"Okay, give it what you give, I earned it after all." Gu Shanhai put the mutated owl away with a smile.
The problem of cause and effect is that if you have too many debts and don't bear them down, the worst thing you can do is use Bi Luo from his previous life to cut them off and then run away.
He would still be wary if he met those big players with great karma skills in his previous life, but the karma system in this world is, to say the least, rigid rules. He was worried but not to the point of despair.
Not to mention that Gu Shanhai is a Tianji-style player. Although he was disturbed by the Tianji disorder due to his lack of strength, if he really wanted to survive, many problems would not be a problem in his eyes.
"It can be considered as something to relieve boredom on the way." Gu Shanhai took out a level 1 anesthetic pill and stuffed it directly into the mutated owl's mouth.
This Anesthesia Pill is an upgraded version of the Paralysis Pill. It can put people into a deep coma, and there is no need to worry about damaging the human body like the Paralysis Pill. At most, they will not wake up, and there will be no pain when they die.
The reason why Gu Shanhai didn't give Fan Shi anesthesia pill before was because he didn't have much value, but now this mutant owl has enough qualifications.
He just wanted to know how this owl could fly. With its weight and size, it was simply unscientific to be able to fly, and it was this unscientific place that Gu Shanhai was looking for.
"The next step is to conduct the first round of dissection, and the hair must be shaved off." Gu Shanhai expanded the legal domain and formed a sterile laboratory.
The portable laboratory has been eliminated and now it has become Gu Shanhai's portable storage room.
The reason is naturally that various equipment are no longer as good as his hands, and they must be eliminated due to lack of precision.
With the help of various spiritual plants, Gu Shanhai no longer needs these equipments. These spiritual plants are really hard work for those who are capable. Not only can they grow repeatedly like leeks and be used as medicine by him, but they also serve as auxiliary equipment for experiments. It is really used as fuel and as a car, and the capitalists will cry when they see it.
"Feathers are very ordinary. Their main function is to keep warm." Gu Shanhai did not immediately study the mutated owl itself, but focused on the feathers first.
It was found that there were no other characteristics except that the amount of radiation exceeded the standard.
With the current situation in the world, there is nothing that does not exceed the radiation limit.
"There are varying degrees of alienation in the internal organs. The preliminary judgment is that it is negative. It seems to be a disease caused by radiation." Gu Shanhai then cut open the chest cavity of the mutated owl.
As he learned more about it, Gu Shanhai gradually discovered that it was not that the mutated owl wanted to stay in high altitudes, but that it needed enough water vapor because of the lesions caused by its own radiation.
Drinking directly into the river water is not an option, because taking in too much water will make it unable to bear the burden and lead to water poisoning.
It probably means that it needs to drink water but not drink too much. Isn't it just a coincidence that it went up to the sky and found the cloud layer. The water vapor content of the cloud layer and the way of ingestion were just in line with its way of survival.
"Gan, so we have to speed up the progress, otherwise we will die soon." Gu Shanhai looked at the mutated owl whose life characteristics were gradually declining, and was speechless.
"It's no wonder that the monks have formed new schools and new methods. It's not that they have great imagination, but that they will die if they don't adapt to the times."
Radiation and mutation are never good words. Some people may gain power through it, but there is probably not one such person in ten thousand. Most people are more likely to die from various diseases.
Just like this mutated giant owl, the radiation mutation gave it a size and strength it never had. Correspondingly, this is not a good thing. Judging from Gu Shanhai's anatomy, it has been suffering from illness and can only rely on the clouds. Water vapor can relieve your own pain.
So much so that it cannot leave the clouds for too long, so it is very difficult to catch food. It is always full and hungry, otherwise it would not be possible to attack Gu Shanhai when he sees it. (End of chapter)
