“Should I send the spiritual figure to the other planets to investigate?”?Chen Yiming thought to himself as he walked through the snow.

After the spiritual figure secretly learned how to use the mysterious symbols to set up the formation from the shadow monster, its understanding of the mysterious symbols deepened greatly.

The method described by the female spirit in the ring to enter outer space had almost completely been comprehended by the figure in his mind.

The speed of movement depended on the strength of one’s spiritual power and one’s control over the mysterious symbols.

However, even so, the distance between the two planets in space was still too far. During the journey back and forth, he would temporarily be left without the combat strength of the spiritual figure.

If the black tide suddenly descended during this period, he would not be able to use his ultimate finishing move: relying on the spiritual figure that could constantly revive to fight the black tide.

In his heart, he was more inclined to set off with the spaceship. It was equivalent to keeping a spark alive for human civilization.

As for the spiritual figure, it would stay on the blue planet. If it could defeat the black tide, the spaceship could turn around and return at any time.

If the enemy from the black tide was too powerful, when the spiritual figure revived from his consciousness, he could also adapt to the situation at that time.

He could choose to let the figure in his mind fight its way back to the blue planet, or he could choose for it to go to the unknown planet together.

At some point, the sound of fighting in the snow from a distance interrupted Chen Yiming’s thoughts.

A mutant human was being chased by a seven-man team.

This human’s lower body had completely mutated. His legs had already disappeared and were replaced by dozens of spider legs.

The seven-man team was led by a young woman. They were all wearing the same combat uniform, and the word “Chen” was engraved on the sleeve on their shoulders, indicating that they were part of the Chen corporation.

“Are they chasing after the humans who were affected by the black tide?”

Chen Yiming looked up and his gaze landed on the mutant.

At this point, the truth about the mutant humans had already been figured out. This involved their faith and negative emotions.

To put it simply, those who were affected by the deeds of the black tide and were constantly in a state of fear, panic and nervousness, and were facing a mental breakdown.

At this moment, if one thought of the black tide as gods and other existences that could save the world, they could secretly communicate with the mysterious existence and hear whispers in a language that they could not understand.

As for the parts of the body that had undergone mutation, there was no consensus for the time being. At the moment, it was believed to be related to what one was thinking the moment before the mutation.

“Tsk tsk tsk!”

For some reason, the mutant human suddenly revealed an evil smile and charged at Chen Yiming.

From the looks of it, it had the intention to take him hostage and cause trouble for the pursuit team so that it could find an opportunity to escape.

“Not good! Let’s stop the mutant human together.”

Seeing this, a man in the team reminded the others loudly.

In the same realm, mutant humans were generally stronger than ordinary humans. Not only did they have all kinds of strange abilities, but their attack attributes were also extremely terrifying.

In battle, the mutant humans who had handed over their faith to the black tide would no longer be affected by the negative emotions.

It could almost be described as having one’s pain receptors temporarily blocked. The more it fought, the more excited it became. It was not afraid of getting injured or dying.

Therefore, even warriors who had mastered the crystal meditation technique often needed to work in groups to surround and kill a mutant human.

However, at this moment, with the mutant human on high alert, it was too late for the seven-man team to surround it at the last minute. They could only watch helplessly as the mutant human successfully charged out of their formation.

In the next moment, something shocking happened.

As the mutant human quickly approached, it was suddenly shattered into countless black dots that gradually dissipated in the air.

“Uh… this is?”

Other than the young woman leading the team, the others had looks of disbelief on their faces. They had yet to see what had happened.

…

In the snow-covered forest, Chen Yiming glanced at the six people walking away. In front of him was the young woman who led the team.

Shen Jia was the receptionist who had handled the procedures when Chen Yiming registered for the Mantis Snake Sword School.

After that, when he established his own faction, due to a shortage of manpower in the early stages, he personally invited the other party to join his faction.

Chen Yiming was also a little surprised. At some point, an ordinary woman had become a warrior. Furthermore, she was quite strong and had the ability to lead a team of warriors.

“Long time no see!”

Shen Jia’s face was filled with surprise and confusion. When she spoke, she was almost tongue-tied.

In an instant, a few images flashed across her mind. Although there were not many of them, they seemed to be engraved in her soul. They were still fresh in her mind even after a long time.

“I haven’t seen you for two years and you’ve changed a lot. Now, you can lead a team of warriors,” Chen Yiming said with a smile.

The number of warriors in Jiangnan province was still increasing rapidly, and their status had fallen to that of warrior candidates from about two years ago. Even so, it was enough to motivate them to go from being ordinary people to warriors.

“I was lucky to have met you. Otherwise, I might still be sitting at the reception desk of the Mantis Snake Sword School. Oh, no, now that the Mantis Snake Sword School doesn’t accept ordinary trainees, I might have been fired long ago,” Shen Jia replied with a bright smile.

At the start of the era of warriors, among the adults, those who would benefit more were only those who had a good foundation as apprentices under warriors. The youths were the ones who would benefit the most.

The martial arts cultivation environment of the new generation was far from what it was in the past.

Under normal circumstances, a beauty like Shen Jia would only be able to envy others. No martial arts faction would give resources to ordinary people above the age of 20.

However, as one of the founding employees of the Chen corporation, and one that Chen Yiming had personally hired, the situation was different. It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that she had soared into the sky.

The various martial arts resources that ordinary people could not hope for were offered to her without needing any reason. She could use them however she wanted.

Time quickly passed by.

After the conversation started, the atmosphere became much more relaxed.

After a brief chat, Chen Yiming bade Shen Jia farewell and disappeared into the snow.

To him, this was just a small incident. He recalled bits and pieces from the past.

Not long after, the other six members of the team returned. Shen Jia was still staring blankly in the direction Chen Yiming had left in.

“Boss, who is he?” one of the male team members asked curiously.

His eyes flickered, as if to indicate that there was something going on between them.

“Tell us! Tell us!”

The other five had similar thoughts, and the flames of gossip burned brightly.

It had to be known that Shen Jia was usually very cold. She had countless suitors such as martial arts experts and outstanding people from the second generation, but they were all rejected.

Shen Jia came back to her senses and glared at her subordinates. “Take a look at the sign on your shoulder. That’s your real big boss.”

“Boss, are you kidding me?”

The few of them subconsciously thought that she was lying to them.

Thinking about it carefully, Shen Jia’s words were indeed true. The mutant human had been shattered into pieces through the air. In the warrior realm, even those at the peak could not reach this level.

If a warrior could not do it, then he could only be a martial master. However, the martial masters of the Daxia Kingdom could not even do so much. There was no need to guess who it was.

…

At home, Father Chen had gone out and was not at home.

Mother Chen and Chen Yingying were sitting on the sofa watching television.

“Brother, I’m not slacking off. I’m paying attention to the country’s matters while I cultivate.”

Seeing Chen Yiming’s scrutinizing gaze, Chen Yingying quickly explained.

At this moment, a beautiful woman was hosting an interview with a middle-aged man wearing a hard hat.

While the camera was focused on the two of them, a fighter jet filled with a futuristic aura was shown in the distance.

The beautiful announcer and the middle-aged man introduced the fighter jet to the audience.

The fighter jets were different from any previous generation. They used the latest alien alloy materials from the laboratory. He briefly mentioned this and did not go any further.

In addition, the power system of the fighter jet was also brand new. The middle-aged man called it rune technology, an invention that transcended the times.

Chen Yiming knew more about this. The source of the rune technology was the fragments of the supernatural weapons he had brought back.

When a researcher was studying it, he accidentally discovered a set of mysterious symbols arranged in hundreds of fragments.

Some time ago, Chen Yiming had been asked to help separate the fragments of the mysterious symbols.

Then, the middle-aged man emphasized to the audience that this futuristic fighter jet was not used on the blue planet, but for operations in space. It was about to make its first flight.

The underlying meaning was meant for the other countries. The Daxia Kingdom had no intention of dominating the world, so they did not need to be worried.

The truth was that this impressive fighter jet was only a transport shuttle for the spaceship.

The main reason was that the overall performance of the fighter jets was extremely unbalanced. They were mostly formed from the technology on the blue planet and only had a small number of materials taken from the extraordinary weapons.

At the moment, only its power could meet the requirements outlined by the rune technology.

Chen Yiming retracted his gaze.

In the face of the threat of destruction, the Daxia Kingdom was doing its best to prepare a plan to save the human civilization.

The internal strife in the past was put aside, and they worked together unconditionally. Their efficiency was unprecedented.

In such a situation, new results were produced almost every day. One difficulty after another was overcome by the power of the entire country.

“Brother, it’s rare for you to come home. Did you bring me a gift?” Chen Yingying suddenly asked.

A gift?

It wasn’t her birthday, so why should he give her a gift?

Chen Yiming frowned, not knowing what his sister wanted.

“That… that… I heard that there are still some extraordinary weapons that are intact,” Chen Yingying stammered.

So she wanted to see the extraordinary weapons.

She could just say it directly.

Chen Yiming took out three small items from his pocket and placed them on the table. There was a small sword less than a palm’s length, a flail the length of a finger, and a shield the size of a palm.

“Brother, are you using toys to trick me?” Chen Yingying asked as she picked them up and looked them over.

The mysterious symbols on the surface were so dense that they were almost stacked together, and it was impossible to distinguish them.

“How’s your cultivation progress recently? Have you improved a lot? When can you materialize your spiritual power?” Chen Yiming asked three consecutive questions.

“…”

Chen Yingying’s expression froze, and the small shield in her hand almost fell off.

She truly regretted the arrogance she had displayed when she blurted out those words. The higher her cultivation level, the more she felt like she was stopped by an invisible barrier. Recently, her cultivation progress had almost stopped.

Chen Yiming rolled his eyes and continued, “The minimum requirement for controlling an extraordinary weapon is to be able to use materialized spiritual power. Otherwise, it’s not much different from a toy in your hands.”

“I’ll work hard!” Chen Yingying nodded and whispered.

Chen Yiming nodded and put the three weapons back into his pocket. He then said, “When you complete the cultivation of your spiritual power, come and find me. You can choose one of the three. Sword, flail, or shield.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Yingying’s eyes lit up.

It was as if a car that was about to run out of gas was suddenly filled with fuel again. An urge to immediately go and cultivate surged in her heart.

…

In an unknown sea in the otherworld, a terrifying lightning storm was raging on the surface. Red forked lightning struck down onto an area with a radius of 500 kilometers, causing countless lightning dragons to seem to be rolling on the surface of the sea.

Day and night passed, and the lightning storm calmed down and left the area.

A small black dot appeared on the endless sea.

This was a lifeless island that was covered by a transparent dome. Black tentacles grew out of the edge of the island. Occasionally, sea monsters passing by at the bottom of the sea would sense the black tentacles and immediately leave.

The island was a forbidden area in the dark forest. It had once left behind terrifying memories for the creatures in the surrounding sea.

Other than the sacrificial ground in the middle of the island, there was only the purple liquid on the ground. There were no other living creatures on the surface.

At this moment, the purple liquid seemed to have come alive and was slowly wriggling like it was alive.

On the altar at the sacrificial ground, a stone platform dozens of meters tall was activated. The dense mysterious symbols on the surface were also activated.

Not long after, a terrifying aura gradually appeared in the air. It was even more oppressive than the lightning storm that had just passed through.

The black tentacles at the edge of the island also suddenly transformed. They became thicker and longer, until they reached the bottom of the sea. They were like super-large jellyfish floating in the sea.

When the powerful aura reached its peak, a black light soared into the sky from the stone platform, dyeing the sky above the sea black. The surface of the sea immediately turned from day to night, as if it had fallen into an abyss.

Then, an eyeball several kilometers wide appeared in the clouds.

A terrifying spiritual storm spread out in all directions. Along the way, countless creatures from the otherworld died on the spot.

After they died, their corpses were attacked by the black energy, and shadow monsters crawled out.

There were four-legged creatures, some with wings, some with legs that could walk, and other strange and ugly creatures.

After about 10 minutes, the eyeball retracted its spiritual storm. It turned its gaze back to the island and shot out a spear surrounded by black lightning.

The spear fell from the sky and stabbed into the stone platform.

The black lightning on the surface gradually turned into mysterious symbols and disappeared. The purple liquid on the ground slowly covered the spear. At this moment, it was impossible to tell that it was a spear.

Finally, as if the eyeball had achieved its goal, the terrifying pressure began to weaken.

It looked at the sky above the island, and the darkness faded and light descended again. The eyeball quickly disappeared. If one did not see it with their own eyes, it was difficult to imagine that such a change had happened in the sea.
