Mortal or Cultivator, Is Either Born Superior?
"Oh?"
Lu Changzhi smiled and said.
"Why do I feel like you're afraid of something going wrong?"
Upon hearing this, Mu Fan waved his hand and spoke righteously.
"I am not that kind of person."
"Too."
The Way of Lu Changzhi.
"In that case, I will leave it to you."
Upon hearing this, Mu Fan gave an awkward smile.
"But then again, Master, do you think this place is dangerous?"
Lu Changzhi pondered for a moment before speaking.
"Take it easy."
"Understood."
Mu Fan nodded.
"Master, I'll be going then."
As soon as he finished speaking, Mu Fan used the Mirror Realm once again.
"Brush--"
With a flash of light, the heavy door was easily stepped over by him, and his figure appeared in the area behind the door.
The moment he entered the door, Mu Fan quickly looked around.
Immediately afterward, he paused slightly, his eyes widened, and he murmured his praise.
"Holy crap, we're in the city? This place is huge!"
At this moment, there was an extremely open space in front of him.
This was precisely the area that my mind couldn't explore before.
At this moment, unlike the previous rift and the space before, it was not dark. On the contrary, many fluorescent stones were inlaid and decorated around it.
Although not as dazzling as during the day, it still roughly reflects the space here.
At this moment, Mu Fan was standing on a path leading to this gate.
The road stretched forward and eventually led into a vast, underground city-like area.
After observing for a moment, Mu Fan suppressed his shock and immediately had the system scan the creatures around him.
This time, the situation was the same as before; he was still all alone there, without seeing any other creatures.
"Is it really not there, or is this area interfering with your examination?"
Mu Fan thought to himself softly.
The system immediately provided an explanation.
"Marshal Mu, it's not that I'm interfering, it's just that you're the only one here."
Mu Fan nodded, his attention returning to the city, his face still showing a touch of emotion, and gently shook his head as he spoke.
"I thought it was just a place with high uranium abundance, but I never expected to find a historical site here."
At that moment, Mu Fan was walking forward along the road.
After walking a distance, Mu Fan suddenly stopped. He looked up, then at the ground, before crouching down and picking up a piece of the ground.
The material that made up the passageway floor was quite soft. Mu Fan played with it in his hand for a moment, then raised an eyebrow and murmured softly.
"Is this lead?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the system responded.
"Yes, Marshal Mu."
"In that case..."
Mu Fan pondered for a moment.
"There's such a thing? It seems it's also for radiation protection."
Although he didn't study this in his previous life, he still read a wide variety of things.
Lead does indeed have a shielding effect against many types of radiation.
He just didn't expect that he would encounter this kind of application method in the world of cultivation.
Mu Fan threw the ground he was holding back down, his gaze returning to the distance, a hint of curiosity flashing in his eyes.
"What if I find something like a radiation protection suit in there later?"
After saying that, Mu Fan smiled, shook his head, and continued walking forward.
Before long, he entered the interior of the underground city.
From the outside, this area looks like a city sunk underground, but due to the influence of consciousness, it is impossible to explore the entire city's appearance.
However, upon arriving in person, one can still find that the appearance inside is indeed as usual.
Small houses, flaking grease, and a crisscrossing network of wide roads and narrow alleys.
Mu Fan quickly entered one of the houses.
The doors and windows were now empty, and nothing could be seen inside the house. Only the thick layer of dust on the ground, slightly uneven, seemed to prove that this place had once been filled with things.
The house had two floors, but the staircase leading to the second floor had disappeared, leaving only an opening in the second-floor slab.
Mu Fan leaped onto the second floor, and as soon as he landed, he frowned.
The next moment, he used a little more force.
"Crash--Bang!"
The entire second-floor slab couldn't withstand the pressure and cracked, crashing into the ground in large chunks.
This seemed to make the entire exterior wall of the house appear to be crumbling, and the balance was completely disrupted in a moment.
Immediately afterwards, during the pyramid scheme, the two-story house was reduced to ruins in the blink of an eye.
"Brush--"
Mu Fan appeared to the side, looking at the cracks that had appeared on the wall next to him, and couldn't help but shake his head.
"How long has this been sitting here? How could it have fallen into such a state of disrepair?"
After saying that, he looked at the center of the underground city and frowned slightly.
"In that case, there probably won't be much left."
After saying that, Mu Fan patted off the non-existent dust on his body and headed towards the city center.
After walking for a while, Mu Fan basically confirmed one thing: this underground city was not an ordinary city that had sunk below the ground; it was probably intended to be built underground from the very beginning.
Otherwise, there wouldn't be those thick pillars supporting the top like four beams and eight pillars.
After walking quickly, Mu Fan arrived at a location near the center of the city.
Here, he saw a stone tablet.
The stone tablet is still erected on the ground, with only a large word "Jie" engraved on its front.
Go around to the back of the stone tablet, and you will see a row of vertical characters:
"Are mortal cultivators born with a special destiny?"
Gazing at the words on the stone tablet, Mu Fan fell silent for a moment.
The first part was fine, but the latter part felt familiar to him, as if he had learned about it back on Blue Star; it seemed to be about a rebellion.
But I can't really think of anything too specific right now.
After trying to confirm for a while, Mu Fan shook his head, a hint of helplessness on his face.
"You only realize how little you know when you need to use it."
With a sigh, Mu Fan couldn't help but think, "If I had known I was going to time travel, I would have prepared much earlier."
But...
Mu Fan took a deep breath and focused his attention back on the line of words.
Looking at it this way, the origin of this city also seems to be related to time travelers.
In fact, he had this suspicion a long time ago, but it was just a suspicion; he had never seen it with his own eyes.
It's hard to imagine how natural radiation sources could just happen to converge like that, and how naturally generated radiation sources could have such intensity.
There must be a human element involved.
This is a world of cultivation, so the only people who could come up with such a solution are probably transmigrators.
Mu Fan shifted his gaze from the stone tablet and looked at the hall directly opposite it.
