Testing (2)

After receiving the general information.

With a rough idea of his own strength, Xi Shenlian immediately gave the order:

"Continue the test."

The next second, his figure disappeared again.

However, unlike the last time when he was running on the ground.

This time, he was in the sky.

Although he didn't have any flying abilities.

It wasn't difficult to fly once his movement speed reached a certain level.

Especially with the support of the energy within him.

That energy, which allowed Xi Shenlian to easily influence the surrounding air currents from the moment it manifested, was often referred to in this world as [Inner Strength], [Inner Force], [Battle Qi]... depending on the region, according to the information he obtained from Ouin Chiyoka. It was something inherent to high-level Martial Artists and trained Awakened.

Its basic function was to enhance the user's physical attributes to a certain extent.

When combined with various techniques, it could allow the user to perform actions unimaginable to ordinary people.

And by utilizing that power, Xi Shenlian influenced the surrounding air.

The so-called air immediately became invisible stepping stones, gathered beneath his feet, becoming his points of leverage.

And then.

All he had to do was step on those stepping stones.

Xi Shenlian could easily dart around in the sky.

It had to be said that although this technique was still not true flight, essentially resembling gliding and jumping.

The actual effect was ultimately similar...

Just two steps.

Using this technique of stepping on air to dart around, Xi Shenlian shot straight up into the sky thousands of meters high like a rocket.

Clearly feeling the Earth's gravity trying to pull him down.

Clearly seeing the state of the entire primeval forest.

With another casual step.

Amidst a massive sonic boom, he began to fly at high speed, like some kind of supersonic fighter jet.

Just by passing through.

The disturbance he caused instantly tore through the surrounding clouds!

It was at this moment.

He recalled what Saigo Kadoko, the government liaison who had contacted him, had said.

"If you master flight abilities in the future, please don't fly around recklessly. It can easily cause unnecessary trouble, such as false alarms for military base air defense radars... If you really want to fly, please call ahead to report it so we can be prepared..."

He figured quite a few Awakened must have done similar things, causing quite a stir...

However.

Such matters were clearly unnecessary for Xi Shenlian.

He could just hack the radar directly~

Tens of seconds later.

Xi Shenlian began to plummet rapidly.

His body, like a space-based weapon, rapidly smashed towards a mountain peak approximately five hundred meters high!!

"BOOM!!!"

With a tremendous sound.

The upper half of the entire mountain peak instantly exploded and shattered!

The immense impact forced thousands of tons of soil and debris to spill outwards!

The feeling was like a squashed cake!

And the vast amount of debris, scattering like heavenly flowers, rapidly smashed and killed all surrounding plants and animals on the spot.

Further fragments even flew tens of kilometers away in mid-air!

When the dust and mist cleared.

Looking out, the entire mountain peak was only about a hundred meters high.

And the culprit—Xi Shenlian, stood there unharmed, standing straight in the newly formed sunken pit.

The Auxiliary AI in his phone was diligently reporting the data results of his performance:

"Your maximum flight speed was approximately Mach 52, and your agility allowed for 194 ninety-degree turns in the air per second..."

But after listening roughly, Xi Shenlian lost interest.

Because he discovered something.

Even though he had found a very spacious environment for self-testing.

There was truly nothing around that could serve as a target to experiment his power on.

He had only performed a simple test of his movement speed, not even using his full speed, just about seventy percent, and the surrounding environment was already almost destroyed.

Anyone who didn't know would probably think some large-scale war had occurred here...

However.

In less than a minute in total.

He hadn't even warmed up!

At this intensity, Xi Shenlian felt he could sustain it for a year or a half...

And.

He also discovered something.

As the test progressed.

When he no longer suppressed his power.

While feeling happy, his strength was actually increasing automatically...

And the increase was not small.

This meant that the results from his previous test, which were already not at full power, were truly of little significance!

Before he even turned his head, they had become outdated.

Finally.

He could only think to himself:

'Looks like... I'm really strong, and my talent is damn unrivaled in heaven and earth...'

Then.

With a light leap.

He crossed hundreds of meters and jumped off the mountain peak, only half of which remained.

When his feet landed.

He turned and looked at the mountain peak still emitting wisps of dust and mist.

He didn't strike a pose, just a simple straight punch.

But for Xi Shenlian, whose running speed was already about fifty times the speed of sound, this was still a blow with a punch speed close to a hundred times the speed of sound!

The moment he threw the punch.

The surrounding airflow formed a shape like a tornado, coiling around his arm.

"BOOM!!!"

After a deafening roar.

The mountain peak was completely gone.

In its place was a huge crater.

He retracted his fist, put it in his pocket, and Xi Shenlian nonchalantly decided to himself:

'As expected, I need to go to places like the [Underworld] to stretch my muscles...'

On this planet.

There were many special places.

Among them.

Some were naturally occurring special zones, while others were artificial areas created by Awakened, Super Ancient Civilizations, or Ancient Civilizations.

And the so-called [Underworld] was one of the most famous special zones.

It was said to have originated during the Atlantis Civilization.

It was built with some long-lost Super Ancient technology.

It was located roughly several thousand meters underground.

It was a special zone that utilized spatial technology.

Usually, one could only enter smoothly by relying on special passages.

Its total area was about one-third of the surface area.

The gravity was hundreds or even thousands of times that of the surface.

Before.

When he was an ordinary person.

Xi Shenlian only knew that the place was a mining area for various rare materials.

Only powerful Martial Artists, Awakened, and various specialized mechanical equipment could enter.

But according to the information provided by Saigo Kadoko and Ouin Chiyoka.

Due to the more stable environment there, it was often a place where Awakened resolved their conflicts with each other.

In other words.

The surface was everyone's living area, and Awakened rarely clashed there.

If things got out of hand.

Other Awakened would directly intervene to stop them!

And the Underworld belonged to everyone's conflict resolution zone.

People could fight whenever they wanted.

But it was said that [Ascended Stage Awakened], due to their immense destructive power.

Were forbidden from fighting, even within the Underworld…

Thinking of this.

Xi Shenlian instinctively felt that this planet was indeed unusual.

According to the middle school knowledge of this world he had learned.

On this planet.

Gravity.

Was a very strange thing!

For example, after digging down to a certain depth.

The deeper you went, the greater the gravity became!

Similarly, the density of matter would also increase!

In ancient times, Awakened had brought back subterranean soil from deep underground that, for the same volume, weighed hundreds of thousands of times more than surface soil.

And according to the environmental simulation function of the Learning Space.

Xi Shenlian had once simulated the environment of his previous life's Earth.

That Earth, where the speed of sound was 340 meters per second under normal atmospheric pressure and the gravitational coefficient was g=9.8N/kg.

But the result was very surprising.

The gravitational coefficient of his current planet.

Even in the normal living areas on the surface.

The gravity had already reached over five hundred times that of his previous life's Earth.

This meant that ordinary people in this world, even the most frail ones.

Could crush the armor of tanks from his previous life like crushing dough, and achieve supersonic flight with a simple jump.

So.

What the heck was the planet's core, where gravity was at least tens of thousands or even millions of times greater than the surface?

Was there a neutron star buried there?

Xi Shenlian wasn't sure…
