New Chapter: One of the Foremost Sources of Civilization

In the Old Earth, in outer space, Wang Xuan gripped the Imperial Dao Spear in his hand. He had made up his mind: today he would try to break into the secret realm to find that flag.

He has rebuilt his spiritual domain. If he had the complete Dao Control Banner in hand, he might be able to relock onto the Life Land and penetrate it to guide his primordial spirit back.

Day after day, many years passed. He himself was constantly weakening and could no longer even maintain his immortal body. It would be impossible for him to have a strong mind and be completely unaffected.

His palm glowed slightly, and the Imperial Dao Spear began to show signs of revival. It was covered with fine gold and silver patterns, which were exquisite and somewhat dreamlike, like the most magnificent work of art.

The Good Fortune True Crystal on his body began to burn. This kind of disappearance was truly terrifying. Any fluctuation of the treasure required a large amount of "resources".

Inside the spaceship, his cell phone, whose number had remained unchanged despite numerous replacements, broke the silence with a crisp ringtone.

"Zhao Qinghan's phone number," the Mechanical Xiao informed him.

"Answer the call," Wang Xuan said. Upon hearing this, Little Bear finally took action.

However, the Imperial Dao Spear is about to fully recover, and the Good Fortune True Crystal has begun to be consumed. He cannot stop at this moment and probably won't be able to say more than a few words.

"Are you in the Old Earth?" Zhao Qinghan's voice came.

As winter faded and New Star arrived in the Old Earth, it was already midsummer in Xinxing. In the Sky Garden of a high-rise building belonging to the Zhong family, Zhong Cheng and Zhong Qing stood at a distance, talking in hushed tones, without disturbing each other.

Almost three years have passed in the blink of an eye, and Zhao Qinghan heard the familiar voice again. "I am in outer space of Old Earth, about to enter a secret realm."

The Supernatural Finale. In the six years since, the two have only met once, after Wang Xuan woke up. Overall, he has indeed become somewhat distant from people again.

After their last parting, Zhao Qinghan realized that Wang Xuan had most likely overheard some of the things her best friend Jing Yue said at the restaurant.

"Goddess Zhao actually came to ask about Wang Xuan's whereabouts right away. It seems like something has happened to her these past few years? But she seems very calm now." Zhong Cheng really wanted to go over and listen to their conversation.

"Goddess Zhong is here. She's ordering you to behave yourself and not go looking for trouble," Zhong Qing stopped him.

In the Old Earth and outer space, the Imperial Dao Spear shone brightly, truly beginning to radiate Divine Radiance, while the Good Fortune True Crystal dimmed and turned to ashes.

"I know, don't worry, it's just a little dangerous, nothing serious. Okay, it's almost time. Extraordinary fluctuations have appeared, affecting communications. Take care, we'll talk again later." Wang Xuan hung up the phone.

At the same time, he rushed out of the cabin and away from there, otherwise the commotion caused by the revival of the treasure would be too great, and various electronic precision components would be damaged.

The Mechanical Xiao was also piloting the spaceship away, retreating at top speed. It didn't hang up the phone immediately, but heard the voice on the other end mechanically say, "Zhao Zhao, it's alright, the bear is protecting him. If there's any danger, the spaceship will destroy everything..."

In the distance, the Imperial Dao Spear shone brilliantly, its tail wrapped with Primordial Spirit Chain. It transformed into a stream of light and shot out, creating a tremendous shockwave. With a deafening boom, it shattered and pierced through that void!

The once-lost secret realm was opened by a supreme treasure, but it wasn't as difficult as imagined. Even in this era, it has reappeared.

The main reason is that the Great Universe suppresses everything, and the shackles of this small world are not so strong. The Imperial Dao Spear is indestructible. After tearing open the void, the so-called sealing gate is nothing at all.

Vast waves surged, and the dazzling Imperial Dao Light burst forth, engulfing the area. Wang Xuan charged in with the Imperial Dao Spear, returning to this place after many years!

The light faded, the power fluctuations of the treasure diminished, and then returned to calm. Opening the gate to the secret realm was enough; he could no longer consume true crystals.

"Enough talk, the bear needs to move too!" Although the Mechanical Xiao looked dull, it moved quickly. Seeing that the treasure there had dimmed and the gate to the secret realm was still there, but it was gradually closing, it couldn't wait any longer.

With a whoosh, it piloted its small spaceship, following the huge crack forcibly torn open by the Imperial Dao Spear, and rushed inside.

The secret realm was desolate and somewhat dim. Although it hadn't completely decayed and extinguished like the immortal realm, it had still turned into mortal land, gray and desolate.

Wang Xuan knew that this place would not collapse because, in this world, there were the Three Dreadful Piles civilization, the civilization corresponding to the Sky-Veiling Mirror in the chapter on the Mental Illness of "Only I am True, Only One", and the Dao Control Banner Civilization, all of which left traces.

Such powerful civilizations have the ashes of "old paper piles," proving that this secret realm has existed through more than one era. Moreover, the most powerful mythological civilizations have left their immortal glory here.

"Why did you come in here too?" Wang Xuan turned around. He was standing quietly in front of him, looking around at the barren little world.

"I'm afraid that all the Good Fortune True Crystal on you will be used up in the secret realm, and you'll never be able to get out again. I'll stay with you. If the secret realm closes, we can try to bombard it from inside with the strongest firepower of the spaceship." The Mechanical Xiao said in a very formulaic way, without any emotional fluctuation.

"Wait for me here," Wang Xuan said. At this moment, the entrance gradually closed, and everything was beyond change; the spaceship could not leave for the time being.

He set off. In the dim light, many trees were withered and yellow, with few leaves on their branches. Looking around, it was a scene of late autumn, but there was no ripe fruit, only a chilly feeling.

Many of those mad beasts and monsters have turned into corpses, which can be seen from time to time on the road. Some are sickly and hiding in caves, having lost their extraordinary attributes.

"Thinking about it carefully, this place is no ordinary place," he murmured.

After all, among the supreme treasures, the Dao Control Banner ranks first, and the shattered Sky-Veiling Mirror and the Dao Burning Lamp are tied for second place. The civilizations that possess these top-tier treasures, and even their last bonfires, are all located here.

In addition, there are ancient spaceships that have crashed, and a mythical king associated with technological civilization has appeared deep within this secret realm.

New Star Zhao Qinghan put down her phone, her brows furrowed slightly, a look of worry appearing on her beautiful face. There were some things that hadn't been explained clearly, and in the end, there wasn't time to say them. The Mechanical Xiao was also involved in the adventure.

"Sister Qing Han, I didn't expect you to come in such a hurry, but you are as calm as still water. Should I say that you have mastered the art of self-cultivation, or should I say that you have always been aloof and calm?"

Zhong Cheng walked over with a smile, trying to gather intelligence. Clearly, even after all these years, he hadn't completely stopped trying to "sell" his older sister.

"You talk too much, go away." Zhong Qing said disdainfully.

Zhao Qinghan is bright and beautiful. She once stepped into the extraordinary realm and reshaped her flesh and blood. She is full of vitality. According to the Life Science Research Institute, she still has the vital signs of someone in their early twenties.

"I'm not exactly calm and rational, that's how many people describe me. But now it seems more appropriate to say that about Wang Xuan. Back then, due to some reasons, there was a misunderstanding. He's downplaying the past. After returning this time, he hasn't come to New Star again and hasn't contacted us before setting off again."

"What? Wang Xuan has gone on another long journey?" Zhong Cheng exclaimed in surprise.

Zhong Qing was also surprised and sighed inwardly. This person really is a cultivation fanatic. He just came back, showed his face briefly, and then left again. Stepping onto the path of the extraordinary is really... toxic.

Little Zhong said, "Perhaps, only those who have strong beliefs in their field and are convinced that they can reach the end can succeed, just like my great-grandfather. All he asked for was to be reborn and live a second life, and in the end, he achieved it."

"This time, he's in outer space of Old Earth, and I want to go and take a look," Zhao Qinghan said.

Deep within the secret realm, Wang Xuan frowned. The Three Dreadful Piles were gone, and the bonfire where the Great Law of Mental Illness was discovered had also disappeared. The environment had changed, and things were different here as well.

In fact, before the Great Universe changes, the Civilization Embers cannot be seen in real time; they require certain opportunities to appear.

The entire secret realm space shrank, losing its extraordinary energy, and was no longer able to support everything it once was. But this was also a good thing, as it saved Wang Xuan time. Soon he saw the Gobi Desert and arrived at its end.

Ahead, white mist swirled, blurring the view; it marked the boundary between the secret realm and the Spirit World, a boundary that, theoretically, could not be crossed by the physical body.

However, Wang Xuan currently lacks a primordial spirit, and the spiritual realm he has rebuilt is currently unable to break free from his physical body and travel far away.

He took out all the Good Fortune True Crystal and divided them into two piles. One pile was used to activate the treasures and was a consumable for the journey ahead. The other pile was left for the return journey.

Is this enough? Let's give it a try.

The cosmic rift that gave birth to the Dao Control Banner requires traversing a considerable distance deep within the Spirit World.

"Several Super Civilization are connected to this place. Could it be that they all discovered something here, or perhaps they also tried to leave through that cosmic rift?"

Wang Xuan activated the treasure again, as if riding a sword, letting the Imperial Dao Spear carry him across the Mental World. Otherwise, his physical body would be trapped in it, like falling into a swamp.

A dazzling light pierced through his Spirit World as he sped forward. During this process, he frequently adjusted his orientation, and images of the Imperial Dao Spear, the God Slaying Banner, and other things that had appeared in his mind flashed through his mind. He was approaching his destination!

"I see it! That's it!" Wang Xuan's face lit up with joy. It wasn't the location of the giant spiritual head from last time, but another strange place.

The Great Universe Error Correction also has some benefits, namely that even the Mental World has been strongly suppressed and made hazy, and its geographical area has been greatly shrunk.

The Imperial Dao Spear was too fast, turning into a streak of light and disappearing into the depths of the Spirit World. It traveled an unknown number of miles. In the past, even if he did not bring his physical body and flew in with his primordial spirit, it would have taken him many days to travel that far.

"We're getting closer!" Wang Xuan exclaimed with joy. At the edge of the world, there was flowing light and chaotic energy, and cosmic cracks appeared. Moreover, it was a plane that was half spiritual and half material, which was somewhat different.

"Damn it!" His first pile of Good Fortune True Crystal was exhausted. After traversing a certain distance by inertia, he suddenly fell into a "Spiritual Mud Swamp" and was unable to move.

Should he use the Good Fortune True Crystal he had reserved for the return journey? He dared not.

"I'll risk it all! Even if I have to move slowly, I'll cross this distance with my own body and get closer to there!"

This is incredibly difficult. Moving within the Mental World relies primarily on powerful mental strength, but he has only just rebuilt his spiritual realm and is still far from achieving his primordial spirit.

If he hadn't possessed a very strong physical body, approaching that of an Earth Immortal, he would surely have died here.

"Move, move forward!" Day after day, Wang Xuan toiled and moved with difficulty. The distance that seemed not very far left him exhausted.

Finally, he sensed the aura of a world that was half material and half spiritual. As he approached the cosmic rift, radiant light began to flow onto him.

"Could it be that the extraordinary power here hasn't been extinguished?!" he exclaimed in surprise.
