Chapter 37 The Sublimation of Life
Chapter 37 The Sublimation of Life
Planet Two, at the top of the heavens.
After the Sky Surveyer arrived, Chen Yao discovered that the planet he named Planet Two was actually a rare life-bearing planet.
"The planet has a diameter of 8,000 kilometers, with a land-to-ocean ratio of 3.2:6.8. The dominant intelligent race on the planet is the Taina, a zero-order planetary civilization that practices physical cultivation."
As he muttered the various pieces of information the Sky Survey had detected in a short period of time, a look of keen interest flashed in Chen Yao's eyes.
In just a few minutes, the low-light radar detected hundreds of mineral resource information entries.
You heard right, there are hundreds of them, and they are all of several, or even more than a dozen, different types of minerals concentrated in the same area.
Clearly, although the Taina race is only the lowest level of civilization trapped on the planet's surface, they have most likely mastered various smelting and forging technologies, which is why they purposefully mine and collect various resources.
However, Chen Yao's focus was clearly not on these readily available mineral materials.
Of the hundreds of mineral resources, the highest grade is only two relatively common second-tier minerals. Currently, the Sky Surveyer already has 8.5 tons of volcanic copper in its storage space, plus the high-grade minerals that may exist on the other two planets. Therefore, he is not in a hurry to mine these two ordinary second-tier minerals.
What he was really eyeing was the strange cosmic artifacts that might exist on this planet.
The creation of each cosmic artifact is far more difficult than imagined. It requires not only rich cosmic primordial energy but also certain very special conditions, as well as a long period of nurturing. None of these can be lacking.
However, on many planets in the boundless starry sea, one or two of these can be conceived.
What is the reason?
It's quite simple. Compared to most other celestial wonders, the planets in the myriad celestial seas have existed for far longer periods.
Ancient planets that have existed for hundreds of millions or even billions of years, even if they are of low rank, are not surprising in that they might give birth to one or two rare artifacts by chance over such a terrifying passage of time.
Of course, most of these wonders, born from the ley lines of a planet, are buried underground. It would be extremely difficult to find them on a large planet by one's own efforts.
But life-bearing planets are different. Through the development and activities of generations of native inhabitants, they possess all sorts of wondrous and wondrous creatures, which are extremely difficult to ignore.
In this way, one only needs to take a stroll through the mansions of those civilized ruling classes, or the treasure vaults of their power, and the answer to whether there are any rare artifacts from the stars will soon be found.
"However, there's no rush for now..."
Chen Yao's eyes flashed, and he suppressed the impulse in his heart.
He plans to visit the habitable planet beneath his feet after exploring the other two planets.
However, the warp drive has just cooled down and he will have to wait for several tens of minutes. He needs to take advantage of this gap to try to make a breakthrough in the guiding technique.
Before the alien domain was deployed, with the help of the [Ice Toad Cold Marrow Pill], he had barely cultivated the Guiding Technique to the peak of level 9. Now, with the blessing of the lucky aura, he wanted to try to break through to the next level in one fell swoop, complete the sublimation of his own life essence, and at the same time complete the miraculous task of "Life Sublimation".
Having made up his mind, he handed over control of the warship to Xuntian and then turned around and entered the energy absorption and training cabin.
……
Inside the energy-absorbing training chamber, the pure white psionic energy guiding patterns shone brightly.
Chen Yao sat cross-legged, his internal energy cultivation technique running at full speed, trying to get himself into the best possible condition.
"Little Star".
At one point, he uttered a soft murmur.
Immediately afterward, the Star-Born Vine on his chest responded, its tendrils trembling slightly. Emerald green energy spread from its roots to the point where it connected with the flesh on his chest, causing the speed at which the external void energy gathered to surge dramatically.
Although he did not purchase the third-tier Wood Crystal, Xiao Xing had clearly grown considerably after successfully absorbing the two Life Crystals he had exchanged from his family, and its efficiency in absorbing and expelling external energy far exceeded that of the beginning.
That wasn't all. Immediately afterward, a flash of light appeared in Chen Yao's hand, and two cards were taken out from the [Miracle Card Pool].
"Qi and Blood Card"
"Advancement Card"
The two cards transformed into surging blood and qi and a dazzling mysterious light, respectively.
The power of Qi and blood, along with the pure energy surging into the body, further enhances the speed of the guiding technique.
The dazzling light entered his body directly, eventually transforming into a sharp sword of light that shot straight at the insurmountable barrier between the zero and first levels.
In the darkness, Chen Yao seemed to hear a faint cracking sound, and the originally heavy barrier seemed to have been weakened.
"Now!"
With his mind on edge, Chen Yao seized the opportunity and frantically mobilized all the psionic energy within his body, transforming it into a battering ram, which he slammed into the barrier.
boom!
The first hammer blow left the barrier completely unmoved, but the recoil caused a slight tremor in his mind.
But Chen Yao did not stop.
the second time.
the third time.
the fourth time.
Each impact was accompanied by a dull thud that echoed within the training chamber.
With each cycle, Chen Yao's face changed from rosy to pale, and then from pale to flushed, but it never stopped.
Outside his body, the emerald green vines tightened their grip, and the warm life energy flowed into his body like a gentle stream, repairing the minor damage caused by each impact.
In addition, the spa card was activated in advance, and the hidden injuries caused by the increasingly violent psionic energy in his body due to the breakthrough were being repaired quickly, striving to maintain Chen Yao's good condition.
Heaven rewards those who persevere; finally, on the sixth attempt, the insurmountable barrier within his body shattered.
Click!
A crisp sound, audible only to him, exploded deep within his mind.
Chen Yao suddenly opened his tightly closed eyes, a deep joy flashing in them.
His guiding technique finally broke through level 10.
But he didn't rush to get up, because he knew that the breakthrough in guiding techniques was not the key; the focus was on the upcoming sublimation of life.
Just then, a mysterious energy surged out from the void and quickly covered his entire body.
Seeing this, Chen Yao closed his eyes again, letting the warm energy flow into his body.
This is the power of the primordial star sea. When a living being achieves a major breakthrough, it will attract the primordial power of the star sea. Only after being fully baptized by this primordial power can the essence of life be sublimated and transformed.
Chen Yao could clearly sense that under the baptism of the power of the star sea's origin, his body was undergoing a complete transformation.
Muscles are strengthening, bone density is increasing, blood vessels and meridians are expanding, the mind is becoming clearer, and even the skin's defense is continuously improving.
Time passed second by second, and it wasn't until more than ten minutes later that the transformation was completely over.
As the last trace of primordial power completely dissipated, Chen Yao finally stood up slowly, feeling the surging power within his body, and could no longer suppress the smile on his lips.
First order.
From this day forward, he officially becomes a first-order being in the Star Sea, and his lifespan increases from two hundred years to three hundred years.
More importantly, as he advances to the next level, the Sky Patrol will have no further obstacles in its attempt to reach the level of a first-tier psionic airship.
