Chapter 139: The Incomplete Immortal Cultivation Civilization
After sending Fu Xuemei off yesterday, Qin Chuan was about to return when the system notification sounded.
[An incomplete cultivation civilization has been detected nearby.]
That was what the system prompt said.
Upon hearing this notification, Qin Chuan was shocked.
Cultivation did exist in this world.
Thus, Qin Chuan immediately turned back.
He asked the system where the place was, but the system did not answer him. Qin Chuan went to look for it himself.
After searching for more than a day, he finally found it.
This incomplete cultivation civilization was more than 4,000 meters underground in the Zhu Hua District.
Qin Chuan was glad. If it weren’t for the fact that his cultivation realm had increased, his divine consciousness wouldn’t have been able to sense it at all.
Qin Chuan was currently in the third class of the Golden Core Realm. Generally speaking, at this stage, the furthest his divine consciousness could reach would be 3,000 meters. However, because Qin Chuan cultivated the Nine Revolutions Golden Pill Technique, his divine consciousness extended by around 1,000 meters.
Therefore, it was indeed by luck that he found this incomplete cultivation civilization.
Because the cultivation civilization was underground, Qin Chuan had bought the Earth Burrowing technique.
Using the Earth Burrowing technique, he successfully arrived underground.
When he was about 3,000 meters deep, he encountered a barrier.
This barrier was not a defensive one. Instead, it was equivalent to a modern AI identification door.
Only immortal cultivators were allowed to pass.
Qin Chuan naturally entered the barrier without any obstructions.
The inside of the barrier was a completely different world. It was a massive pitch-black space.
There was not a single ray of light in this place. Even though Qin Chuan had night vision and divine consciousness, he still couldn’t see. It was as though he was in a boundless universe.
Despite this being a desolate space, Qin Chuan didn’t leave.
From the previous barrier to the huge space now, he understood that the civilization here practiced high-level cultivation.
If he left just like that, wouldn’t all his time be spent in vain?
Because of this, Qin Chuan left a mark on the ground. If he lost his sense of direction, he could also return here based on this mark.
Like a headless fly, he aimlessly searched until he found the massive huge spherical multicolored crystal wall.
Arriving before the spherical multicolored crystal wall, Qin Chuan was like an ant, extremely tiny.
Qin Chuan was surprised to face the crystal.
At some point in time, the cultivation civilization in this world must have been extremely grand and flourishing.
Qin Chuan had no idea why it disappeared, nor did he have the time to think about it.
After which, Qin Chuan touched the surface of the crystal, and a faint energy ripple appeared.
It was the power of an array formation belonging to a barrier.
Qin Chuan understood that the multicolored spherical crystal in front of him was a barrier.
Since it was a barrier, there must be something else inside.
Qin Chuan was instantly interested.
There were only two ways to break the barrier.
Firstly, he needed to breach the array formation in this barrier.
This method was suitable for cultivators who specialized in array formations—array cultivators.
Although Qin Chuan had some knowledge about array formation, the array formation of the multicolored spherical crystal looked extremely complicated.
With his current mastery of array formations, he definitely could not do it.
Hence, Qin Chuan chose the second method—to break through with brute force.
Qin Chuan felt that since he was in the third class of the Golden Core realm and had cultivated a stage five cultivation technique, he should be considered one of the stronger Golden Core cultivators among his peers.
Although he would not completely break the barrier, he thought he could still make a small opening.
Hence, Qin Chuan gathered his strength and punched the surface of the multicolored spherical crystal.
Bang!
The surface of the crystal rippled like water.
Obviously, he did not succeed.
Qin Chuan wasn’t surprised; he could accept this.
After all, he had only used half of his strength.
If it broke from that, he didn’t think the items inside would be of good quality.
After which, Qin Chuan gathered his strength once more.
This time, he used 80%.
Bang!
The sound was louder than before, but the surface of the crystal still showed no signs of cracking.
Qin Chuan didn’t give up. Instead, he gathered his strength once more and struck the same spot.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
He delivered a dozen blows, with his strength maintained at around 80%, but there was still no effect.
At this moment, Qin Chuan’s countenance changed.
“This barrier is truly extraordinary. In that case, I have only use my full strength.”
Qin Chuan swallowed a few Qi Gathering Pills to replenish the True Qi he had lost earlier.
When he returned to his peak state, Qin Chuan summoned his flying sword.
This was a supreme-grade flying sword with extraordinary power. It could easily slice through a tall mountain that has existed for hundreds of years.
In order to break through the barrier, Qin Chuan used his trump card.
Qin Chuan controlled the flying sword with all his might, channeling all his energy into the sword.
With the continuous infusion of True Qi, the flying sword rapidly enlarged. Like a mountain peak, the sword’s sharpness swept out, emitting resounding sword cries.
“I should be able to break it this time!”
Qin Chuan’s face was pale as he stared at the gigantic flying sword above his head. He was confident he could break the barrier.
He had calculated that his sword had the power to kill any Golden Core cultivator instantly. It would even injure a Nascent Soul cultivator.
Qin Chuan waved his arm, causing the huge flying sword to vibrate violently. The surrounding space started to vibrate, emitting thunderous sounds.
The next moment, the flying sword spun like a golden dragon about to be born.
When the rotation reached a certain speed, the gigantic flying sword flew out like a meteor and then turned back, leaving behind a golden arc.
Bang!
The gigantic flying sword finally stabbed at the surface of the crystal, resulting in a loud bang.
The impact of the collision spread out in all directions instantly like a destructive storm.
The space around the multicolored crystal shattered like glass shards.
But the crystal itself was not affected at all.
Qin Chuan was stunned, and his expression grew became extremely solemn.
At the same time, something similar to an earthquake happened on the ground directly above the space.
A mountain hundreds of meters tall split in half and the surrounding area were affected to varying degrees.
The university was still alright. Other than a few tremors, nothing else disastrous happened.
Even so, it still caused quite a stir.
All the institutions of higher learning in the university town got everyone onto the field in the shortest time.
The students from each class quickly gathered together and formed a square.
A few minutes later, the instructors, teachers, and school leaders arrived at the field one after another.
“At ease! Attention!”
The instructors’ voices were loud; their voices reverberated throughout the entire school.
“Head count!”
“One, two, three…”
The students’ voices were equally loud and powerful.
It could be seen that this month of military training was indeed effective.
Soon, the students from each class finished reporting the attendance.
“Sir, Faculty of Economic Management, Year 1 Class 2, we have 35 out of 40.”
“Sir, Faculty of Finance, Year 1 Class 5, we have 40 out of 42.”
“Sir, Faculty of Foreign Languages, Year 3 Class 4, we have 37 out of 45.”
…
After all the classes had finished reporting, the instructors’ expressions became exceptionally stern.
They found the teachers of the respective classes and investigated who didn’t gather.
On the other side.
On a bustling commercial street in Cheng An Lan District, a few people suddenly appeared.
When these people appeared, the air around them was like rippling water.
“Grandma, why are we here?” Sun Lingxiao asked in bewilderment.
“I don’t know either!” Fu Xuemei shook her head.
It wasn’t just them. The people who had suddenly appeared here were all dumbfounded.
They questioned themselves: where am I, who am I, and what am I doing.
