Relative IV

Standing in front of the door, Zhang Rongfang looked around, trying to find something that could give him some clues.

Unfortunately, the surrounding area was a mess, with only some scattered and broken pipes.

He took two steps forward, squatted down, and found two heavy drag marks on the ground in front of the door.

It seems that something very heavy was dragged in.

To go in, or not to go in.

This is a problem.

He didn't know what was inside, but the clues were right in front of him.

Thud! Suddenly, Zhang Rongfang grabbed his left arm and pulled it out hard.

With the help of blood manipulation and his own deliberate relaxation of his muscles, his left arm was forcibly ripped off.

A film of blood quickly covered the wound, stopping the bleeding.

He threw his arm on the ground and then tidied up the various odds and ends on his body.

Um!?

Suddenly Zhang Rongfang was stunned. He looked at the spot where his left arm had been severed and found that a new arm had somehow grown there.

Moreover, it did not consume any essence or blood.

It should be noted that although his Blood Clan Progenitor had strong regenerative abilities, it still required a large amount of essence and blood to regenerate his body.

After all, his body is extremely strong and dense, so a great deal of energy would be needed for him to fully recover.

But now, 'This is Super Self-Healing??' He couldn't understand before what it meant to have a greatly enhanced healing ability.

Now it seems that this ability is truly abnormal.

Looking at the severed arm lying on the ground, he felt a strange sensation. He could transfer his consciousness to that arm at any time and then rely on it to regenerate rapidly.

"Now it's all right." Zhang Rongfang looked up at the black vortex gate.

He immediately stepped out and entered.

Hiss! Everything went black for a moment, and then a sharp pain surged through my entire body.

He suddenly knelt down on the ground, his muscles twitching and contracting.

Even Zhang Rongfang was momentarily stunned by the excruciating pain of his entire body cramping.

His vision went black, and he lay on the ground panting heavily. It took him a while to slowly recover.

Once his vision had improved somewhat, he looked around.

This is a circular hall.

The ground, walls, and ceiling were all covered in a dark red blood film, making it look extremely strange.

These blood membranes continued to move, and a fine, viscous liquid was secreted from their surface.

Zhang Rongfang stood up and looked at the back of his hands and body.

His skin was covered in bloody wounds from the door.

Even with his physical strength, he couldn't withstand the damage from that door.

He suspected that to enter through this door, one would need to wear a lot of protective gear.

Otherwise, anyone who comes in here will suffer greatly. Of course, it's also possible that people who have worked here before may have some kind of qualification that exempts them from such harm.

After all, he essentially forced his way in.

As he lifted his foot, he could feel a stronger resistance in the space inside than outside.

The air seemed to be filled with an invisible gel, making every movement require more effort.

Fortunately, this impact was not a big deal for him.

Step by step, Zhang Rongfang carefully observed the surrounding movements, first walking towards a position that looked like a control panel directly in front of him.

When he walked up to the control panel, the scene was completely different from what he had imagined.

It wasn't a bunch of buttons or levers, but a constantly beating, heart-like thing.

The thing was the size of a human head, and its body was connected to a large number of blood vessels, cartilage, and blood membranes.

It occupied the entire space on the entire control panel.

'What is this thing?' Zhang Rongfang had no idea how to proceed.

He glanced around. Soon, he spotted a simple diagram in the corner of the control panel on the right.

However, the diagram was a bit... He paused for a moment, then quickly followed the diagram and found a small circular hole at the heart of the control panel.

After hesitating for a moment, he decided to give it a try. He had come this far, and he wouldn't be satisfied until he found out the whole truth.

He reached out and suddenly gouged out his own eye.

With a soft "plop," his left eye was gouged out and stuffed into the small black hole on the control panel.

Click.

Immediately, with a soft click, the heartbeat of the control panel began to accelerate rapidly.

The thumping sounds echoed throughout the entire circular hall.

The beating sound grew more rapid and intense.

Poof! Suddenly, the beating stopped completely.

On the right side of the control panel, a dark red abscess slowly swelled up on the wall.

With a whoosh, the abscess burst open, spilling various kinds of mucus and blood all over the ground.

But inside the abscess, there was also a circular bracelet-like object sticking out and hanging on the wall.

Zhang Rongfang touched his newly grown eyeball, walked over, reached out and pinched the ring, pulling it outwards.

It was easily pulled out.

As soon as the ring was held in his hand, the large amount of blood and pus that had just fallen to the ground automatically gathered into an oval-shaped puddle.

Lines of Locked Script began to emerge from the puddle.

'Review complete. Please contact the 235, 772 Interaction Zone. No response has been received from other areas.'

Zhang Rongfang picked up the ring and examined its material.

This thing appears to be made of some kind of skeleton wrapped around skin. It doesn't look like a prop; it looks more like a ring of some kind of animal flesh that has been cut out.

'So, how do I contact other partitions?' He looked at the display on the ground, unsure of what to do.

He reached out and tried to touch the words in the puddle with the ring.

After a ripple, the words slowly blurred and disappeared.

Suddenly, the ceiling of the entire hall slowly lit up with a red light.

'Trying to link'

A line of Locked Script reappeared in the puddle.

'Link successful.'

Soon, new text appeared.

Interaction Zone 235 is now linked. Voice communication is available.

Voice communication?

Zhang Rongfang frowned slightly.

Everything here exudes an extremely high level of technology, yet at this level, it can only achieve voice communication? Soon, a faint hissing sound came from behind.

Then came a violent coughing fit.

"This is a message from District 235. I'm sorry, but our god has gone mad. Too many outings and too many god resurrections will cause permanent damage to consciousness and spirit."

Next, barring any unforeseen circumstances, we plan to establish a completely autonomous, internally-circulating system of Gods and Buddhas. If successful, all will be well, and you will no longer be able to hear this recording. If it fails, then the messaging system here will continue as usual.

Going out?

Gods and Buddhas revived?

Zhang Rongfang grasped the key words.

A long, long time ago, he felt that the Spirit Thread of the so-called Gods and Buddhas and Buddhas were similar to the nanobots he had heard about in his previous life.

It now seems that the existence of Gods and Buddhas has a very deep premise.

He then tried touching the number 772 in another Interaction Zone.

Soon, another flash of red light appeared.

A new voice has emerged.

"This is message number 772. We're glad you contacted us. We held a special testing event last week and made some new revisions to several martial arts techniques in the new simulation. If you have any new ideas or inspirations for your Interaction Zone, please feel free to share them with us."

The sound stopped abruptly.

This passage contains a great deal of information.

'Martial arts? These people are actually studying martial arts?'

The word "martial arts" is a translation of the Locked Script, but Zhang Rongfang doesn't actually know its meaning in the Locked Script.

However, judging from these two messages and the many clues from previous investigations...

The outline of a somewhat strange and peculiar civilization gradually emerged in his mind.

Next, he took the ring and wandered around the hall several times.

No further clues were found.

So he returned to the black vortex gate and stepped out again.

This time, the Black Gate was like a gentle breeze, causing him no harm whatsoever.

'Interesting, it seems this thing is also a form of identification?' Zhang Rongfang picked up the ring and simply put it on his wrist.

He retracted his severed arm, walked out of the Interaction Zone, and returned to the passage that resembled a platform for Gods and Buddhas.

The Moon God was still nowhere to be found. Clearly, the Great Abyss was too vast, and it was impossible for her to monitor every single movement.

Stepping out of the passage and standing at the exit, Zhang Rongfang looked around at the dilapidated platforms.

A strange, inexplicable feeling suddenly welled up inside me.

"Judging from the current information, the outside world is extremely dangerous. The Moon God also said that the Sky Light Wielder are a very small number of survivors after many, many people died."

Therefore, in order to avoid the outside Heavenly Light, these people created various Interaction Zone. And these Interaction Zone could be connected to each other through certain means.

In the Interaction Zone, the Gods and Buddhas seem to be entities they created for venturing out and exploring.

Furthermore, various martial arts styles are popular among them, something I hadn't noticed before.

"It seems we still need to gather more information about these mysterious people on the fifth floor and above."

He didn't linger, spread his bat wings, pounced downwards, and closed his eyes.

Suddenly, the person blurred in mid-air, quickly became transparent, and disappeared into the air.

Shortly after he left.

More white mist slowly diffused from the entire fourth level.

A rustling sound came from the various abandoned Interaction Zone platforms.

***March.

The major religious sects' Worship God was almost completely wiped out due to the pursuit by the Human Immortal Temple and the Reverse Time Society.

In particular, the Human Immortal Temple is naturally restrained by the spirit network of the deity worshipper, and a slight mistake can result in a fatal blow.

The number of Worship God in the entire Great Ling is decreasing rapidly.

The Gods and Buddhas in Great Abyss were unwilling to retreat and organized resistance armies everywhere in an attempt to resist Blood Rainbow Pavilion and Human Immortal Temple.

But they all failed miserably.

With several top experts from the Reverse Time Society wielding Demon Weapon present, such unprepared Divine Descent are simply unable to shake the current situation.

This is the situation that resulted after Zhang Rongfang eliminated all the sect Spirit General.

After defeating the Spirit General, he returned to the Human Immortal Temple and continued to soak in the blood pool to accelerate the acquisition of Attribute Points.

In reality, soaking in the blood pool requires doing nothing else for an entire day. Although Attribute Points accumulate quickly, it is extremely boring.

Fortunately, Zhang Rongfang began to try Wish Woman with the Blood God within him.

At the same time, he also instructed Golden Wing Tower to keep a close eye on the situation at the Moon God's Sensing Gate.

Although they agreed not to interfere with each other, he developed a strong interest in these Gods and Buddhas and Buddhas and the outside world after he went to the fourth level of Great Abyss.

Furthermore, whether the Sky Curtain contraction is real still needs to be verified.
