On Earth, perhaps just a few satellites are enough to give a complete view of the entire planet.
However, the landmass of the Pan Emperor Continent is so vast that even if a satellite were launched to an altitude of 100,000 kilometers, its field of view would only be able to observe a small portion of Central Province.
In the high skies above Pan Emperor Continent, 100,000 kilometers seems to be the limit. The Nine Heavens Astral Wind, thunder, and frost that arise above are simply beyond the capacity of mortal equipment to withstand.
Chen Mu estimated that only legendary artifacts could possibly fly to altitudes of over 100,000 kilometers.
Therefore, Chen Kingdom's current rune satellites can only monitor its own territory and surrounding areas at most; they are powerless to monitor anything further away.
After all, if the rune satellite is too far from the control console, various accidents can easily occur, and the maintenance and security costs will increase significantly. No matter how much money Chen Kingdom earns, he won't spend it recklessly like this.
Chen Mu specifically brought a rune satellite with him to Central Province this time. With him maintaining it, the safety of these satellites can be basically guaranteed, and he can also use the power of the rune satellite when necessary.
At this moment, after Chen Mu made contact with the satellite in the sky through the remote control array, he controlled the satellite to turn its probe to the valley near him.
The purpose of doing this was, of course, to find out whether Gu Ningbi had left the herb field valley.
Although Chen Mu knew very little about the Ancient Chen Clan Tribe, they were still his ancestors. He wanted to return to his ancestral home after the woman left to take another look, as a way of showing them respect.
To avoid arousing suspicion, Chen Mu did not focus his gaze on Gu Ningbi, but instead fixed it on the entire valley filled with medicinal herb fields.
While this method might not allow for a clear view of the woman's every move, it would at least ensure that she hadn't left.
Seeing that Gu Ningbi was indeed still in the valley, Chen Mu was not in a hurry. He sat cross-legged and began to cultivate his inner power.
Over the years of cultivation, Chen Mu has learned from many sources and has long since forged his own path. He rarely goes into seclusion for quiet cultivation; when he does go into seclusion in the Chen Kingdom, he is mostly engaged in various research projects and is never idle.
Just like now, without the conditions for conducting research, he can truly calm down and cultivate the secret techniques of immortals.
Day and night alternated, and soon the day was over.
Just as she had said, Gu Ningbi left the next day.
Chen Mu stayed for a while longer, making sure Gu Ningbi was far away, before he cut off contact with the rune satellite.
" Little White, let's go back to that valley from yesterday and take another look."
"Um."
Little White came bounding back through the forest and climbed back onto Chen Mu's shoulder.
Although she didn't know why Chen Mu had secretly run back, she didn't care. She felt content as long as she could stay by Chen Mu's side.
After a while, Chen Mu walked through the vibrant forest and medicinal herb fields and arrived once again at the abandoned Chen Clan family compound.
"Did our Chen Clan live in such a place in the past?"
This time, Chen Mu's mindset had changed a lot. His eyes were unfocused, as if he could see his ancestors living here.
A group of burly, masculine men dragged the slain monsters back from outside the valley.
In the evening, the women prepared the ingredients, and they ate meat and drank wine together. Although the conditions were harsh, they were incredibly fulfilling and joyful.
Children dressed simply run freely in the Spiritual Qi rich valley.
They need not worry about wild beasts outside, because this valley is a natural barrier, and powerful tribesmen guard the entrance, so no wild beasts can freely enter and harm them.
What exactly happened back then? Why was the Chen Clan Tribe wiped out?
Based on the information Chen Mu knows, the destruction of the Chen Clan Tribe is probably related to the Heavenly Court. This may be related to the sealing of Heart of Pan Emperor by God-Slaying God, but he is not yet able to figure out the whole story.
Chen Mu casually walked into a house. The door was rotten, Chen Mu a gentle push, it fell to the ground, shattering into pieces and raising a cloud of dust.
The house was overgrown with weeds, making it impossible for anyone to pass through. The dilapidated and yellowed primitive murals inside gave the place a gloomy feel, which explained why the herb farmers who supervised the medicinal fields would not come here to stay.
Chen Mu had no choice but to come out, and after circling around again, he finally stopped in front of a house.
This courtyard is very large. Although the horizontal plaque above it has fallen off, it is still easy to identify that this is the ancestral hall of the tribe.
After entering the ancestral hall, there is a large open space. It is likely that the tribespeople used to gather here often to discuss matters, worship their ancestors, hold celebrations, and so on.
At the end of the ancestral hall, many wooden plaques lay scattered about, all rotten and illegible. They were also home to many poisonous insects, and the area was overgrown with weeds and spider webs.
"It seems there's really nothing of value left here."
Chen Mu sighed inwardly. He had originally thought that as a descendant of the Chen Clan Tribe, he might be able to obtain some ancestral blessings here, but there wasn't even a decent memorial tablet left. What valuable things could there be?
He had even released his domain and found that there was indeed nothing there except some Mutou and stones.
"Now, the only thing that can let people know that we are descendants of the Chen Clan Tribe is probably this Soul Seal in my hand."
As Chen Mu pondered this, he extended his left hand, and an incredibly profound Bagua (Eight Trigrams) pattern floated above his palm.
Crackling sounds...!
Chen Mu's actions immediately triggered a chain reaction. The ground beneath his feet suddenly began to crack, and then the surroundings shook violently, as if something was breaking through the soil.
"Repair my sword, sing my battle song! Brothers in arms, let us charge to the heavens!..."
An ancient war song faintly echoed around him, and Chen Mu felt his blood boiling, almost uncontrollably.
"No, the situation is still unclear, and my God-Slaying Bloodline cannot awaken yet."
Chen Mu was a rational person, and even at this moment, he remained clear-headed and suppressed his agitated emotions.
After a while, the shaking stopped, and a Xiaoxiao artificial hill rose up in the center of the ancestral hall's open space.
" Divine Blood Scarlet Gold?"
Chen Mu's eyes lit up. With his extensive knowledge of physics, he could tell at a glance that the artificial mountain was cut from a precious mineral.
