Ling Yi read almost the entire Old Liu of Cang Tianyun's works.
It's not so much amazing as it's Heavenly People, but rather Dawei awe-inspiring.
In just one month, this Old Liu brother transformed himself from a Jianghu expert who was not even at the Acquired Realm into the Golden Core Realm expert.
Ling Yi felt that if he were to be paired with Protagonist again in the future, he would have to be paired with someone like Cang Tianyun.
They are cautious and meticulous in their actions, yet ruthless. Once they seize an opportunity, they strike decisively, then immediately Concealment hide and lie in wait for the next chance to strike.
For a whole month, no one could find Cang Tianyun, and no one would have imagined that Cang Tianyun would turn into an old man and sell fruit right under their noses every day.
Let's take a look at the cultivation techniques that this Old Liu practices: Breath-Holding Art and the unique skill of concealing one's Aura, the Spirit-Hiding Art, a low-level Earth Pin level.
The Cloud-Piercing Steps is a movement technique that allows one to unleash Ultimate Speed in a short period of time.
Bone-Sculpting Art can subtly alter one's skeletal structure to Transformation. This process is extremely painful, both during and after the transformation.
Ling Yi tried, but gave up at the very beginning; the pain was simply unbearable for Ling Yi.
Yet Cang Tianyun was able to endure this pain for a whole month; his willpower was truly terrifying.
After Plunder the cultivation techniques, the first ones he learned were the Spirit-Hiding Art and the Five Elements Evasion Art.
This Cang Tianyun is a man destined for great things.
A month has passed in the Cang Tianyun World, but half a year has already passed on Ling Yi's side.
Unfortunately, Cang Tianyun created a very dense storyline, resulting in a large time ratio between the two worlds.
Ling Yi opened the system and looked at his strength rating. It was 11 points, which was quite high. As long as Ling Yi used the Limiter Remover once, his strength would directly break the million mark.
However, Ling Yi was not in a hurry to use it. In a few more days, the time in the world where that old monster Gu Geng lived would be exactly the second year.
This means that Gu Geng will receive the reward from the Lying Flat and Giving Up System for the second time, directly doubling his strength.
This will add at least another 100,000 Battle Power to Ling Yi.
"Strange, why hasn't Xiao Qi made a move in the world of Technological Ascension for so long?"
It's important to understand that this is a world of Quantitative Tier, the highest level world to date, and the world Ling Yi has been most looking forward to.
Ling Yi focused his attention on Xiao Qi, and his face immediately darkened.
[You're grilling meat?!]
Xiao Qi, who was roasting Rabbit, was startled by Ling Yi's voice. After realizing what was happening, she sat back down with a helpless expression.
"What can I do? There's nothing on this planet," Xiao Qi said, shrugging.
"What kind of lousy system did you give me? It even costs money? I'm stuck on this planet now, how am I supposed to make money?"
[Can't make money?]
"Yeah, what can I do if I can't earn Federal Credits? I'd like to repair this Old Gu, though."
Xiao Qi pointed to the rusty spaceship that he had already dug out.
"But we have no energy, no materials. All I can do now is wait and see when other scavengers come to this planet."
[Federal Currency? You don't think the system only recognizes Federal Currency, do you?]
"What do you mean?" Xiao Qi was stunned.
[It means exactly what it says, you idiot. So-called universal currency doesn't mean the only form of money. Huangjin, Silver, any currency that can circulate normally is acceptable.]
[Since this planet was once Blue Star, it's impossible that it doesn't even have a Huangjin, right? Don't tell me you haven't looked for it?]
"Spring, Huangjin works too? There's plenty of that stuff in the universe." Xiao Qi's eyes widened, somewhat incredulous.
"Holy crap, does that mean I wasted three years on Progenitor Planet for nothing?"
[I'm really fed up, you've wasted so much of my time for Laozi.]
"The system didn't explain it clearly, how am I supposed to know? I feel like I've made a huge mistake."
As he spoke, Xiao Qi jumped up, ran to the warehouse, and retrieved the anti- Gravity motorboat. The next moment, the motorboat roared off.
A few minutes later, Xiao Qi arrived at a ruined city on his motorboat.
It's called a ruined city, but there's little Shadow of a city left; most of the area is covered by various plants.
Xiao Qi turned on the smart Computer in his left hand, and after a series of actions, a row of vertical blue cesium rays was emitted from one end of the smart Computer.
A beam of blue light swept across the row of buildings in front of them, while a stream of data appeared on their smartwatches.
Xiao Qi's eyes lit up, and she headed straight for a building.
The building entrance was covered in vines, and when Xiao Qi pushed it, it wouldn't budge.
He pulled a futuristic-looking pistol from his waist, adjusted its power, and fired a shot at the door.
A semi-transparent beam of red cesium energy shot out in a diffused pattern and struck the door, instantly blasting a large hole in it with a deafening roar.
Is this gun really that powerful?
"This is a multi-functional sonar gun. If what you're saying is true, I'll buy one from the System Shop and send it to you."
After entering the building, following the information displayed on his wristwatch, Xiao Qi made his way through a maze of turns until he arrived at a similarly rusty iron gate.
[I have a question. Shouldn't this Progenitor Planet be a remnant of a war from hundreds of thousands of years ago? But it doesn't look like it was from hundreds of thousands of years ago at all!]
"No, to be precise, this Progenitor Planet is less than Wu Bai old from the time of the Progenitor War."
Ling Yi was a little confused. Wasn't the Progenitor War supposed to have happened 130,000 years ago?
Xiao Qi explained, "It's because of dimensional weapons. Dimensional reduction attacks aren't permanent; as long as you're not reduced to zero dimensions, you'll recover."
"It's just that the dimensional reduction weapons used are different, and the recovery time is also different. The Progenitor Planet was directly reduced to one dimension in the battle back then, so it took hundreds of thousands of years to recover its dimensions."
"However, in a one-dimensional space, there is no concept of time and space, so these hundreds of thousands of years are essentially a static state."
[Doesn't that mean that after the dimensions are restored, everything will return to its previous state?]
"That's not the case. During the process of dimensional reduction, the consciousness of all life forms will collapse because it cannot withstand the pressure brought about by the Changes in dimensions."
"The true destructive power of dimensional reduction weapons comes from the process of dimensional reduction and dimensional upgrading; basically, no living being's consciousness can survive this process."
As Xiao Qi spoke, he adjusted the parameters of the multi-functional sonar gun and aimed it at the metal door.
This time the commotion was relatively small, but the surface of the metal gate rippled like water.
A moment later, it shattered into a pile of iron sand with a crash.
[Wow, this sonar gun is amazing?]
"This is a common weapon used by the Federal Army. It's very cheap; you can buy one for three to five Federal Credits on the black market, and you can get as many as you want."
As expected of a world where Technological Ascension to Quantitative Tier, it's truly impressive.
Ling Yi's side doesn't have the technology for sonar guns.
At that moment, a system notification sounded in Xiao Qi's mind. After Xiao Qi confirmed it, Huangjin in the room disappeared instantly.
"Hahaha, I'm rich! I've gained over 20,000! With another 30,000, I can buy a single-person spaceship."
"This isn't some desolate place, it's a treasure trove!"
"Then I'll buy a full set of nanotech armor, paired with Quantum energy tank, and I'll be invincible."
Next, Xiao Qi embarked on a journey across the entire planetary apocalypse, frantically collecting Huangjin.
In just two days, Xiao Qi had accumulated nearly 300,000 Universal Points.
After several days of testing, Xiao Qi discovered that his system could not only exchange gold and silver for universal points, but also various high-value luxury goods such as jewelry and Diamond.
We returned to that Old Gu warship.
"Since gold and silver can be used to charge system points, there's no rush to leave. Some planets in the Progenitor Star System contain large amounts of gold, silver, and gems."
"If we could deposit all of these into the system, wouldn't we have billions in savings?"
Xiao Qi's words were filled with excitement.
"I'll exchange for a Quantum Armor when the time comes, making me invincible. Oh, and I also need to exchange for this Void Engine; it can instantly perform Universe Grade calculations, it's simply heaven-defying."
"With the Quantum Armor and the Void Engine, I'm practically invincible."
"That guy, Luo'er, I'll deal with him later. And that ' Key,' it's most likely something amazing, we have to get it."
[ Key?]
"Yes, someone found Luo'er, my former Captain, and posted this Hire to find the Key. The bounty is ridiculously high."
Ling Yi seemed to be deep in thought; it seemed that this " Key " must be a very important plot prop.
At this moment, Xiao Qi purchased a gene serum from the System Shop.
"It's a pity that we can only buy the U3-Type Gene Potion now. That's 100,000 universal points, which is equivalent to a small space transport ship."
At the same time that Xiao Qi purchased the U3, Ling Yi also acquired the U3.
This thing can directly unlock the human Gene Lock, the Key to human evolution.
"This is an advanced gene-enhancing drug developed by the Federation; ordinary people can't even buy it if they want to."
"If this thing were to be traded, it would probably fetch millions, or even hundreds of millions of federal dollars."
"This is a non-sale item controlled by the Federation, and the quantity is limited."
"It is said that those who have taken U9 can traverse the universe without any equipment, withstand attacks from Quantum cannons, and destroy a galaxy with a wave of their hand."
"Unfortunately, this thing is too expensive. Even in the System Shop, it costs tens of billions of universal points. I would have to scavenge from at least a dozen planets to gather enough."
Ling Yi and Xiao Qi were both looking forward to it and longing for it.
To be able to destroy a galaxy with a wave of one's hand—that's incredible power; calling it godlike wouldn't be an exaggeration.
Do you know what true power really is?
Ling Yi could tell that this kid hadn't spoken to anyone for years; he was a bit of a chatterbox. Of course, he also knew that the level of civilization in Ling Yi's world was too low, and he was showing off a bit.
[Oh?] Ling Yi really wanted to know, so he could only obediently play the straight man.
"True power is not about Eternity. With current technology, achieving Eternity is incredibly easy. For example, one could upload their consciousness to an electronic device to become a digital life form, or transfer their consciousness into a biological Computer and then have a new body to achieve immortality."
"But these are true powers. True power is the ability to freely roam between different dimensions. There are beings from other dimensions around us, chatting and Combat, even though we can't see them!"
[Wait a minute, I need Computer and Computer technology!]
