40,000 Years of Cultivation

In the small conference room, the six members of the Bronze team gathered together and entered the mission selection system of the Secret Star Club to discuss the upcoming missions.

The mission selection system of the Secret Star Club is somewhat similar to the war mission system in Tianyuan Xiuzhen.

In fact, the war mission system is modeled on the mission selection system of the Secret Star Society.

You can't do whatever you want to explore the Secret Star.

Between some Secret Stars and the Celestial Realm, there will be cosmic storms, space turbulence, and gravel star belts from time to time, and you must wait for the calm and calm waves to explore.

Some secret stars, like comets, revolve around the Celestial Origin Realm, and it will take decades to appear in the orbit close to the Celestial Origin Star.

There are also some celestial treasures that grow on secret stars, which can only be harvested once in decades or even hundreds of years, and it is useless to go elsewhere.

In the Secret Star Association, a large number of the most outstanding research and management cultivators from the Star Federation are assembled, who are responsible for monitoring and calculating the Secret Star’s orbit, opening time, transmission energy consumption and safety, and finally select the most suitable one in the near future. Explore the secret stars, and draw up a rough exploration plan and contribution points, and then send them to the system for the Xingchen team to choose.

According to the latest strength evaluation of the Bronze team and the record of previous explorations, the system recommends three missions.

The first task is to protect a research cultivator from going to a secret star, where a weird temple was found at a kilometer underground, with mysterious and complicated runes on the wall, and it can shield all magic weapons from recording. , Only the experts can go to the site to study in person.

"Never mind this task. This kind of protection expert task is the most troublesome. Our team has just completed the break-in, and the style is more aggressive, which is not suitable for this task."

Hong Tong looked around, including Li Yao, five team members nodded one after another.

Protecting experts is a common task, because many secret stars contain ruins and mysteries that ordinary cultivators cannot understand. Many things cannot be brought directly back to the Tianyuan realm. You can only ask experts from the Tianyuan realm to go to the secret star to study for yourself.

But unfortunately, most of these experts are research and literary cultivators, and their combat effectiveness is a little stronger than ordinary people. They are pure burdens in the Secret Star. In case of danger, the entire team will be dragged down.

Therefore, even if the contribution points that can be obtained by completing the task are high, the average Star Team still doesn't like to accept this kind of task, unless there is no better choice in the short term, it will take it with its nose.

"The second mission is very large. Together with the other two teams, destroy the monster clan’s cultivation base on a secret star. Good guy, according to intelligence, the monster clan uses the natural on this secret star. The blood pool wants to concoct a kind of monster beast'Golden Feather Civet' that has been extinct 20,000 years ago, and contribute a lot, how about it?"

Everyone studied carefully for a while, "dumb" Ba Weiqi shook his head and said:

"Let’s take a look at the third mission. Although the contribution point of this mission is very high, it depends on the battle merits to determine the final contribution point allocation. The other two teams participating in the mission are all ranked in the top 20 on the star list. For the top team, we have just completed the break-in, and we may not have won the competition."

"It makes sense, then look at the third one."

"The third mission is to go to Xuanbing Star, collect the Nine Aperture Stone and its associated melting crystals, explore Xuanbing Star, and clean the ancient battlefield."

Everyone's eyes brightened, this kind of collection and exploration missions does not have rigid conditions and is very flexible. It is most suitable for the first mission of a team like them that has just completed a run-in.

Li Yao also focused his attention and carefully studied Xuanbingxing's mission.

Xuanbing Star is a secret star that passes by the vicinity of Tianyuan Star every thirty-two years, and each time it has a month to launch a star shuttle to explore it.

This is a very cold secret star, but it is rich in two precious heavenly materials and earth treasures, Jiuqiaoshi and Ronglingjing.

Jiuqiao stone itself is not very precious, but it is a very good additive, which can increase the strength of 37 common strengthening alloys in the Tianyuan realm by more than 0.7%.

And Rong Ling Jing can be used to modulate the foundation building fluid, which increases the success rate of foundation building by another 0.3%!

The Tianyuan Realm itself also produces a small amount of Nine Aperture Stones and Rongling Crystals, but the quality is very low, mixed with many impurities, the cost of the analysis is extremely high, the output is also very low, and it does not have the value of large-scale development.

Xuanbing Star is one of the few secret stars that contain high-purity Nine Aperture Stones and Melting Spirit Crystals. Its purity is so high that it can be used by the Tianyuan cultivation world for several years as long as it is collected several times back and forth.

On the other hand, because Xuanbing star contains such precious mineral veins, as early as the Xinghai Empire period, human beings had already developed a large-scale mining base on it.

But because of this, it has become an important military target, attracting the attack of the monster clan army, and the battle around the Xuanbing Star, the two sides have no idea how many **** battles have been fought.

Therefore, Xuan Bing Xing is also an ancient battlefield, which may contain various ancient magic weapons and secrets.

Mysterious Star will discover Xuanbing Star more than a hundred years ago. So far, I have explored it three times. I have initially figured out the nature of Xuanbing Star. I also mapped out a part of the map, but it only occupies 9% of the total area of ​​Xuanbing Star. That's it.

Therefore, this time there are three missions to explore Xuanbing Star.

First, collect as many Nine Aperture Stones and Rong Ling Jing as much as possible.

Second, when exploring Xuanbingxing, you can get a lot of contribution points for every 1% of the map you explore.

Third, clean the ancient battlefield to see if there are ancient magic weapons and secrets worth bringing back to the Tianyuan Realm.

There is basically no failure in this kind of task. The completion degree is not high, which means that the contribution points are less. It is most suitable for the status quo of the Bronze team.

"If everyone has no opinion, we will go to Xuanbingxing!"

Hong Tongtongling's big eyes slowly swept around.

"agree!"

"agree!"

"agree!"

Li Yao and Ding Lingdang looked at each other, and they nodded at the same time: "Agree!"

...

In the early morning of the next day, the Bronze team, ready to go, boarded an underground railcar and arrived at the "Secret Star Discovery Center" fifty meters below the launch base.

They were lucky, no other team competed with them for the Xuanbing Star mission, so they officially passed it at night, and obtained a large amount of information and battle videos for the previous exploration of Xuanbing Star.

After studying for a night, they are full of confidence in this task, eager to try, and can't wait.

Passing through a silver-white corridor, the scene in front of him made Li Yao's eyes a little frozen.

Next to the corridor is a five-meter-long, fifty-meter-wide tempered glass. Looking through the glass, it is a huge room comparable to a flying crystal ball racing field. It is filled with all kinds of things that make Li Yao's mouth watering. Super large crystal brain.

He recognized several ultra-large crystal brain models, all of which he dreamed of, even if he touched them, he would be excited for three days.

And these super-large crystal brains can only be regarded as juniors here, and the master crystal brains that are really in the center of the huge room are as high as two floors.

Li Yao is a fan of the brain, let alone see, I haven't even heard of it.

In the huge room, hundreds of experts wearing silver-white robes and brainwave augmentation magic weapons are working attentively.

The psychic energy fluctuations they emitted converged into a surging wave. Even through the thick tempered glass, Li Yao's heartbeat speeded up, and he was involuntarily infected with a solemn atmosphere.

"Hundreds of research cultivators?" Li Yao muttered to himself.

"Yes, this is the Secret Star Discovery Center, which is responsible for discovering Secret Stars, calculating orbits, surveying and mapping interstellar routes, including the construction of the Super Teleportation Array, and so on."

"What you see is just the tip of the iceberg. In places where you can't see, there are more research and management cultivators who are burning their lives and working as hard as they can to build a gateway to the center of the universe for our Tianyuan human race. Bridge."

Captain Hong Tong said with admiration.

Li Yao took a deep breath, staring straight at the slogan on the wall at the end of the huge room.

Two lines of red as blood slogans pierced his eyes hot:

"Find a way out for the Tianyuan human race, and bring hope to the Xingyao Federation."

"Yes..."

Li Yao slowly exhaled a suffocating breath, smiled, and his eyes became clearer and brighter than before. "Our Tianyuan human race can't be trapped in this small world forever. Let us cultivators, Everyone, look for a way out!"

He somewhat understood the reason why the Secret Star would set up the exploration center here, and let every star inspector see it.

There seemed to be an invisible burden on his shoulders.

The footsteps are firmer and faster.

Soon, the tunnel came to an end and divided into men and women.

Li Yao and Captain Hong Dong entered the room on the left, Ding Lingdang and Yan Yangtian went to the right.

In the room full of holes, everyone took off their clothes, first disinfected, and then injected them with a special strengthening agent by high-pressure atomization infiltration to help them keep their nerves in the next three days. Being in a highly active state, it is more efficient to operate psychic energy, it is easier to stimulate the strongest state, and there will be a lot less sequelae.

After that, the four robotic arms, "Papa Papa Papa", stamped several chapters on them.

Li Yao lowered his head and saw that his body was colorful, covered with flame-like spiritual patterns, which came alive as if he had just been tattooed.

"This is heraldry."

Captain Hong Tong explained, “Although the effect is not as good as the real spirit rune, and the duration is only three to five days, the advantage is that it is easy to use and can take effect with a single poke. It can be selected flexibly according to the different combat environments.”

"Like this time we are going to Xuanbing Star, it is a very cold combat environment, so we can cover this kind of flame spirit pattern, which can increase the speed of blood circulation, lock the pores, maintain body temperature, and if we are fully excited, even if we walk naked. On Xuanbing Star, it can last for dozens of minutes until rescue comes."

"Don't underestimate these coats of arms. This is a strong Nascent Soul. The'sacred pen' Xie Ling personally engraved it. Although it was only a stamp, it took several days and nights to tattoo on the body compared to ordinary spirit marks. Must be strong!"
