Chapter 206 The Sorrow of Previous Civilizations
The last Heavenly King Pill.
Zhou Jia held it in his palm, looked at it carefully for a moment, and then swallowed it orally.
When the elixir entered his stomach, it immediately turned into a billowing stream of heat and rushed to his limbs and bones. Under the pull of Shenhuang Jue, he rushed towards the third level.
for a long time.
"Huh..."
Zhou Jia opened his eyes and made a false strike with one hand. The strong wind rushed directly to the unknown solid metal more than ten meters away.
"Peng!"
The sound echoed.
The metal walls were not damaged at all.
As the crystallization of the wisdom of a civilization in Hongze Territory, the materials used here are incredibly hard and cannot be destroyed except by silver.
It can also be seen that this is no ordinary ruins, but a top priority.
"Half the second level is broken!"
Taking a deep breath, Zhou Jia's eyes were excited.
The effect of the source elixir is really astonishing. It has only been more than a month, and the cultivation level has already broken through half of the second level, and I can vaguely sense the location of the third level.
No wonder they all want to occupy high positions among the major forces.
Don't mention anything else.
Just the benefit of the source elixir can save an unknown amount of time in hard work and lay a solid foundation for further progress.
It is true that Lei Batian is extremely talented, but if he were not the leader of the Tianhu Clan and had a group of people to help him, he might not be able to break through the six levels.
With the power of the Heavenly King Pill, it will be of great help before breaking through the four levels.
"Soaring Eagle!"
The disheveled golden eagle rushed in:
"Things are sorted, come and take a look."
"Okay!"
Zhou Jia's eyes lit up and he stood up.
…………
"The writing of the Gong people is special, not many people understand it, and even fewer people have seen ancient astronomy, let alone know it."
"Fortunately I met you, otherwise I wouldn't have known that it would take the year of the monkey, the horse and the moon to unlock the secrets here."
Jin Ying’s real name is Xie Liguo. He is a researcher and is extremely obsessed with technology.
In fact, in Zhou Jia's opinion, the knowledge he learned back then has not kept up with the times. Fortunately, he has unearthed a lot of good things from this ruins.
"Here is the thing. You look at it first while I study this machine."
He took out a notebook and handed it over. He then came to the machine with something like a tablet and moved it from time to time.
Zhou Jia took the notebook and opened it casually.
"In the third year of the Dark Calendar, Yao City fell to the Ruin Realm. It took several months to clear out the nearby ferocious beasts, laying the foundation for the arrival of future tribesmen."
"In the seventh year of the Dark Calendar, the Academy of Science and Technology appeared somewhere 30,000 miles away. It was attacked by ferocious beasts. Nine out of ten researchers there were killed. The survivors relied on the original fortifications to survive. A few months later, the information was transmitted to Yaocheng. After losing thousands of elites, they were finally saved.”
"In the thirty-sixth year of the Dark Calendar, Kui Zhi appeared in the underground city, killing 3.17 million people. This is the first time we have come into contact with gold-level existences."
Zhou Jia moved his hands for a moment, thoughtfully.
This booklet seems to be a record of what the workers have experienced. There is no detailed technical description. No wonder Golden Eagle is not interested.
Kui Shi...
Could it be a mutated zombie?
The gold level actually caused the death of more than three million people, and with the technology left by the workers, there must be a defensive offensive.
So, still useless!
After calming down, he continued to look down.
"In the fifty-first year of the Dark Calendar, a strong wind fell from the sky and swept thousands of miles. Nearly a million people were killed. Subsequent investigation revealed that a golden creature passed by, but the form of the creature was unknown."
"In the ninety-third year of the Dark Calendar, golden creatures made water and came out of the earth's crust. Floods continued for eight years, and cities everywhere had to change their architectural forms."
"..."
The booklet records the golden creatures that the workers encountered, or their suspected existence. There are eight cases in total, and each case is accompanied by a disaster that has far-reaching consequences.
At the same time, without exception.
In these eight times, the workers never had a kill record, only the casualties were counted.
This made Zhou Jia feel even heavier.
There was a similar record in the Xiaolangdao Book Collection Garden. At that time, the six tribes’ solution was to stay away from such existence.
Can't avoid...
That is death!
Even the strong silver man is no exception.
"One hundred and sixty-three years in the Dark Calendar, a strong man of silver was born and his name was revealed."
"According to tests conducted by the Academy of Sciences, Emperor Qi has a lifespan of six hundred, and his defense, recovery, body and brain power are far beyond those of Black Iron."
"Omni-faceted, super-species evolution."
"Then, start the plan to hunt the silver ferocious beast!"
"Goal: capture alive!"
"Hunting targets: Soaring Snake, Armored Ox, Thousand-Eyed Monster, Soul Shadow..."
"Research on chain life forms, basic exploration of source power, collision of opposite particles, space exploration, life continuation plan, clone army plan launched..."
Zhou Jia's brows gradually wrinkled.
He found that the records at the end of the book became increasingly unclear.
But the general meaning is also clear, that is, in order to adapt to the situation of the Xu world, the workers combined their previous knowledge reserves to start new research to adapt to the environment of the Xu world.
The Ruins Realm does not necessarily adapt to previous technology.
This has been proven in Star City. General physical machinery can be used normally, but complex electronic equipment will lose its use due to the lack of key parts.
Not only technology, but also martial arts.
The martial arts of the Dalin Dynasty, the Origin Techniques of the Fei Mu World, and the spirit methods of the Dili Clan, after reaching a certain level, have all undergone certain improvements to adapt to the Xu Realm.
However, for a liberal arts student, the experiments of workers are like a book from heaven.
Just looking at the name makes me feel dizzy.
Until...
"In the third hundred and seventy-three years of the Dark Calendar, research on golden life forms begins."
Zhou Jia's face straightened and he looked down carefully:
"General characteristics of golden life forms: regeneration of severed bodies, extraordinary hearing, extraordinary vision, space flight, not afraid of high temperatures and extreme cold..."
"Unique characteristics: immortality (representing living beings, Shura ghosts), controlling gravity (representing living beings, turtles and dragons), physical energy transformation (representing living beings, destroying lumps)..."
"Hard to kill!"
"Difficult to communicate!"
"Incomprehensible..."
"In the same year, I was warned by the mysterious force Yaochi not to cross the border!"
"Yaochi?" Zhou Jia's eyes showed confusion and he continued to look down.
"Being a creature of chaos cannot prove gold. This is a rule established by an unknown being in the ruins world. Otherwise, you will be punished by heaven and your entire family will perish."
"In the research institute's discussion, the start of our golden life form project was postponed and carried out secretly."
Zhou Jia was thoughtful. It seemed that this organization called Yaochi was very influential. Even the research on the workers was suspended due to the suggestion.
"In the 411th year of the Dark Calendar, the outer space program failed, the exploration of source power was blocked, and superalloy research was limited. There seems to be an invisible force secretly blocking the development of science and technology."
"At the same time, an inexplicable mental toxin began to appear among the researchers, and senior researchers died one after another, and began to spread downwards."
"Disaster is everywhere!"
"The survival of the workers is at stake."
"Four hundred and thirteen years in the Dark Calendar."
"The golden life form plan of our clan has begun! The worker clan's continuation plan has begun! The construction of the portal donated by the mysterious organization Yaochi has begun!..."
"The nine armies of the alliance carried material bombs, millions of troops, and hundreds of special weapons to surround and kill the seriously injured golden creature Corpse Bird, and the entire army was annihilated."
"Plan failed!"
"The Dark Emperor, the peak silver creature, swallowed the ancient thunderwood."
"Failure!"
"Liu Shen, a living creature at the pinnacle of silver, used mysterious techniques to break through limits and break his body."
"Failure!"
"..."
"Failure!"
"Failure!"
The series of failures made Zhou Jia tremble with fear, and he seemed to be brought into the tense atmosphere of the workers at that time.
"Qihuang Yin-Yang Mirror Illumination Plan."
"Success!"
Zhou Jia's breathing stagnated and he hurriedly turned to the next page, then felt a chill in his heart.
There are only four large characters on this page.
"God's damnation is coming!"
And then there was no more words.
Blank,
It seems to represent the despair of a group of people.
"Senior." Zhou Jia looked up at Golden Eagle with a solemn expression:
"That's all?"
"That's the only way." Golden Eagle shrugged:
"Obviously, the Gong clan failed. Maybe Emperor Qi did become a gold-level existence, but it also led to the extinction of the entire clan."
"Well..."
"Maybe there are survivors."
"What is divine punishment?" Zhou Jia asked.
"I don't know." Jin Ying stopped what he was doing, his expression was dull, and he shook his head slowly for a long time:
"The news I found out that the demise of the workers seems to be related to a kind of sad flower. The pattern of that flower is on the back of the booklet."
Zhou Jia turned over the book and frowned:
"Isn't this just grass?"
"Yes." Golden Eagle scratched his head:
"Maybe I made a mistake. According to records, Chouhua is not a grass, but a kind of flower that can produce buds, and the buds are very big."
"This matter..." Zhou Jia's heart suddenly beat wildly:
"Do the Six Clans know?"
"I must know something." Golden Eagle said:
"I've also heard that the Zhao family member wants to go one step further, but you don't have to worry. You should know how difficult it is to prove gold by looking at the records of the workers."
"It can't be done."
Zhou Jia nodded slowly.
It is no secret that the strongest among the six tribes wants to prove gold.
However, judging from the records of the Gong clan, it is impossible to obtain gold on your own without the support of the entire clan.
And that one,
Clearly not supported.
Not only did they not receive support, judging from the reactions from all parties, it was even as if they were facing a formidable enemy. Even the imperial city had been threatened by the military, and all supplies must have been restricted.
"Forget it!"
Shaking his head, he put down the booklet in his hand:
"This is too far away for us."
"That's right." Golden Eagle nodded:
"Nowadays, how can this thing be serious business?"
As he spoke, he clicked the ball in front of him.
"Any clues?" Zhou Jia asked.
"A little."
The golden eagle looked thoughtful:
“But it still takes time to verify.”
"..."
"Soaring Eagle!"
At this time, shouts came from outside:
"Someone is looking for you outside!"
Zhou Jia came back to his senses and couldn't help but feel a little surprised.
Unknowingly, he had stayed in the Eagle's Nest for nearly half a month, immersed in cracking the copywriting, and for a while he actually lost track of time.

Niu Yan sat upright on the animal's spine, looking down with his head down, his voice low:
"Where have you been all this time?"
"Return to the general." Zhou Jia looked calm:
"Previously, Zhou was injured during the siege against the rebel bandits. He has been in seclusion and has not gone anywhere. He did not recover until yesterday."
"Really?" Niu Yan was noncommittal:
"Some people say that you colluded with Zhengqitang and Xuetenglou."
"Who?" Zhou Jia raised his head with a solemn expression:
"General, this is nonsense. Zhou is an outer disciple of the Xuantian Alliance and an elder of the Tianhu Gang. He has a promising future, so why bother asking for trouble and ruining his future?"
"Well..."
Niu Yan snorted:
"It seems that you don't know yet. Master Luo of Tieyuan Martial Arts School was discovered by the Su family because of his collusion with Zhengqi Hall. He is now being hunted and he is hiding somewhere."
"Huh?" Zhou Jia squinted:
"Luo Xiuying, the general may have misunderstood. There is no way that I, a junior, have anything to do with Zhengqitang."
"So, you admit that she is your junior?" Niu Yan raised the corner of his mouth:
"Then find the person, go and exterminate the relatives for justice, and let me see your attitude, otherwise I will doubt your real thoughts."
As he spoke, he waved his hand gently:
"Let's go!"
After giving the order, the army was dispatched, leaving Zhou Jia with a thoughtful look on his face. After a moment, he followed up and rushed towards somewhere outside the city.
…………
After the rain, the sky cleared up and the road was muddy.
Humid weather is an excellent breeding ground for the growth of various bacterial species. Overnight, many mushrooms sprout and spread their flowers.
"Pah!"
A big foot crushes the soft mushroom.
More footprints appeared, accompanied by rapid breathing and the sound of strong wind.
Restless,
Disturbing the peace in the mountains and forests.
"Quick!"
"Hurry up!"
"Don't let them escape!"
A group of warriors in costumes shuttled through the mountains and forests, chasing those suspected of being Zhengqitang.
"Ah! I will fight with you!"
Seeing that there was no way to escape, one person turned around and ran towards him with an angry roar, and at the same time warned the others:
"You go quickly, I'll stop them!"
"Just you?" The pursuer looked disdainful:
"A dog who has lost his family dares to show off his strength!"
"Huang, our Sun family has never treated you badly, but you framed me and others. Even if I become a ghost, I will not let you go!"
With a roar, the two collided.
"Framing?"
The pursuer snorted:
"If you don't collude with the people in Zhengqitang, how can I frame you? If you don't want others to know, you have to do it yourself."
"Fart!"
"I didn't know that he was from Zhengqitang. I just said a few words and you..."
"Poof!"
The sword flashed and the sound stopped suddenly.
Others have become accustomed to this scene.
Framed?
This kind of thing is normal. Even the Yu family, with Heitie in charge, can be killed because of their unwarranted reputation. Why can't others?
It's just strange that you don't have a way to smoothen the relationship, or you can't produce enough Origin Stones to make people look up to you.
Zhou Jia stood on the top of the tree. His strong body and the weight of hundreds of kilograms of ax and shield did not make the slender branches droop.
Glancing down, he swayed slightly and threw himself forward.
…………
In the mountains and forests.
A remote courtyard.
Luo Xiuying's pretty face was cold, her body was tightly bound by the rope, her silver teeth were clenched and she glared at one person:
"Shang, thanks for my trust in you, you actually harmed me?"
"And you!"
"Zhao Yu, Wang Hua, is this how you treat your friends?"
"Master Luo." Shangluo frowned and said:
"We treat you as a friend and we don't want you to continue on the wrong path. Open your eyes and see what the military has done over the years."
"They forcefully recruit soldiers, impose harsh punishments and taxes, frame blame at will, and prey on the people. Anyone who is bloody should not give in to such existence!"
"You are righteous! You have the ability!" Luo Xiuying clenched her silver teeth and her delicate body trembled:
"I just want to be a safe and stable martial arts master. Isn't that okay? I ask myself, I have never sinned against you, why do you want to harm me?"
"We are not trying to harm you, but we are helping you." Zhao Yu said in a muffled voice:
"Help you see the reality clearly!"
"There are no unbroken eggs when the nest is overturned, and why should Luo Pavilion Master deceive himself? Do you dare to say that you have nothing to do with Blood Vine Tower?"
"No!" Luo Xiuying's eyes widened.
"Brother Zhao!"
At this time, a person hurriedly came from the front yard:
"It's not good. The Sun family members are fleeing this way when they encounter the military's pursuit. We're afraid we've been exposed." (End of Chapter)
