Resurrection of all mankind

Chapter 254 Mysterious Bronze Statue
in the corridor.

Seeing Bu Tianran walking out of the secret room, Li Xiu tried to remind him: "Right now, the Agent's army has gathered outside our Aldebaran star system and may launch an attack at any time."

"As for the defending side, we only have one cultivator in the Spiritualization Stage, Deng Bin."

"It's obviously difficult for him to stop the Agent's army alone."

"So, we urgently need your help."

An agent?

Hearing this, Bu Tianran frowned and looked like he was thinking about it.

After a long while, he finally said, "I remember those agents. They are our enemies."

talking.

Bu Tianran's entire body suddenly twisted inexplicably.

After a few seconds.

Under the gazes of countless people, he disappeared out of thin air.

"This"

Seeing this scene, Gongsun Ji, a cultivator from Qiuyue Star, was shocked and said, "As a fellow cultivator in the Spiritualization Stage, I just couldn't even see him clearly. How did Daoist Bu Tianran disappear? Could it be that he has broken through the Spiritualization Stage and reached a higher realm?"

Gongsun Ji, like Deng Bin, has reached the Spirit Transformation Stage.

However, since Gongsun Ji had just broken through to the Spirit Transformation Stage not long ago, his realm was unstable and his combat power was far inferior to that of Deng Bin, who had broken through many years ago.

In addition, he had been seriously injured by an attack from unknown creatures while walking in the subspace before, and has not yet recovered.

Therefore, Gongsun Ji did not participate in this battle with the agent.

in the corridor.

Hearing what Gongsun Ji, a cultivator in the Spiritualization Stage, said, Taoist Diao spoke up at the right time: "Although I can feel that Daoist Bu Tianran has indeed broken through the bottleneck of the Spiritualization Stage."

"But his breakthrough was not to advance to the fusion stage like Xie Shen did, but to embark on another unique path of cultivation."

"So what kind of path of cultivation is that?" Gongsun Ji asked subconsciously.

Taoist Diao replied, "I don't know."

"Anyway, Bu Tianran's current state is very strange."

"He is a monk, I can sense a unique aura from him that belongs to an indescribable creature."

"But even though he is an indescribable creature, he has a human body and soul."

Taoist Diao concluded: "In view of this, I would like to call the path of cultivation that Bu Tianran is on the 'indescribable realm'."

"An indescribable realm?" Gongsun Ji nodded and said, "You're right, your term is quite appropriate."

Several people were talking.

Yang Xiang, who had been silently paying attention to the battlefield, suddenly showed an incredible expression and said: "Brother Li, look at the battlefield!"

"As soon as Bu Tianran appeared, he destroyed three stellar-class starships in one go!"

According to the consensus reached by various civilizations in the Milky Way, starships can be divided into four categories: planetary, stellar, galactic, and cosmic.

Among them, the three stellar-class starships destroyed by Bu Tianran were equivalent to three cultivators with the cultivation level of the God Transformation Stage.

I have to say, this record is indeed a bit scary.

After all, among the large starships that came to attack Aldebaran this time, only 10 were star-class.

Bu Tianran's move directly destroyed nearly three-tenths of the enemy's manpower, instantly turning the entire battle situation around.

...

The fallen world.

The perfect city, inside the Tower of Law.

Following his cellmates Qian Xiaqing and Lian Yu, Xie Shen came to a workshop that specialized in producing the power of laws.

As soon as he entered, his attention was attracted by an enormous bronze statue.

Look from afar.

The bronze statue looks like neither a human nor an animal, and its appearance is extremely strange.

Following the statue downwards, one can also see a black vortex emitting a large amount of power of faith.

Seeing Xie Shen looking at the bronze statue and the vortex, the elderly monk Qian Xiaqing introduced: "This black vortex is the technology that Perfect City obtained from the Agent."

"You should have heard of the Agent, right?"

"They are the crazy people who have been obsessed with and serving the unspeakable creatures."

Qian Xiaqing continued.

"The black vortex they created has the ability to transmit the power of faith remotely, which is the function of the black mist."

"With the help of the black vortex, Perfect City can continuously collect the power of faith from various planets."

As an Earthling, Xie Shen was very familiar with the black vortex in the workshop.

Those tower prisons that were originally built on Earth had many identical black whirlpools at the bottom.

Just as Qian Xiaqing said.

These whirlpools are indeed used to transmit black mist.

Because he already understood it, Xie Shen did not focus his attention on the black vortex.

He looked at the huge bronze statue right above the vortex and said to the elderly monk Qian Xiaqing, "Excuse me, fellow Taoist, what is the purpose of that statue?"

Qian Xiaqing touched the beard on his chin.

He slowly explained, "This bronze statue is the key to the normal operation of the entire Tower of Laws."

"The function of this statue is to transform all the power of faith transmitted through the black vortex into the power of law."

"These law powers will be stored in the Law Tower and used to maintain the operation of the entire Perfect City."

Can the power of faith, that is, the black mist, be completely transformed into a statue of the power of law?

In the work room.

Xie Shen's eyes lit up as he stared at the huge bronze statue.

He asked Qian Xiaqing: "Then, fellow Daoist, do you know how this bronze statue works? How does it transform the power of faith into the power of law?"

"Of course, it is impossible for me to know this." Qian Xiaqing replied: "After all, the power of the law is a power that only cultivators in the fusion stage can master."

"If I had the insight to figure out how the statue works, I would have already broken through the bottleneck and become a cultivator in the fusion stage long ago."

"Is it really necessary to be stuck in the Spiritual Transformation Stage for so long?"

It is true.

Xie Shen nodded to show his understanding.

He turned to the main business and asked, "Since the bronze statue alone can transform the power of faith into the power of law."

"Then what's the point of having us, the Divine Transformation Stage cultivators?"

"What is our job in the tower?"

"Fellow Daoist, please look." In front of Xie Shen, Qian Xiaqing waved his hand and used his magic power to pick up an iron bar from the ground.

Then, he slowly threw the iron bar in his hand towards the bronze statue.

At this moment, an inexplicable suction force suddenly came from the statue, directly sucking the iron bar into its body.

this.
Seeing this, Xie Shen was surprised and asked, "That bronze statue can not only absorb the power of faith, but also absorb substances like metal?"

"It's not just metal." Qian Xiaqing corrected from the side: "Daoist Lianyu and I have conducted experiments more than once."

"No matter what kind of object or energy, tangible or intangible, spiritual or other extraordinary power."

"Anyone who touches the bronze statue will be absorbed by it without exception."

"Only the consciousness of a cultivator in the Spiritual Transformation Stage."

"Because spiritual consciousness is invisible and intangible, it is a spiritual force generated by humans, so it will not be absorbed by it."

Qian Xiaqing continued.

"That is why the management of Perfect City is trying every means to capture Divine Transformation cultivators like us to help them maintain and repair the bronze statue."

“As for how to maintain it.”

As he spoke, Qian Xiaqing suddenly waved his hand and injected a stream of black mist into the black vortex.

After being blessed by the black mist, the black vortex located directly below the bronze statue began to spin rapidly.

As it was operating, countless forces of faith continuously overflowed from the black vortex and were absorbed by the bronze statue above.

This went on for about 5-10 minutes.

Suddenly, a piece of iron fell off the surface of the bronze statue that had absorbed a large amount of power of faith.

"drop"

"drop"

The moment the iron sheet fell, alarm bells rang throughout the workshop.

Followed by.

Then, a reaction force inexplicably appeared on the ground, lifting the iron sheet into the air to prevent it from falling to the ground.

After doing all this, Qian Xiaqing thanked Shen.

"did you see it?"

"This bronze statue can transform the power of faith into the power of law."

"But this thing is like a substandard product, a low-quality product."

"Every 5 to 10 minutes or so it works, pieces of iron will fall off."

"You know."

Qian Xiaqing explained: "This bronze statue can devour all matter in the world."

"Then the iron sheet that falls off its surface naturally has the same ability."

"So if we let the iron sheet fall to the ground, the entire Perfect City will be swallowed up by it in a short while."

"By then, no one, including us, will be able to survive."

"So in order to prevent the iron sheets from falling to the ground, the builders of the Tower of Laws arranged a large number of extremely complex gravitational formations in this workshop."

"These gravitational formations can eliminate the gravity that exists in the Perfect City, allowing the detached iron sheets to float in the air."

"This way, we can ensure that the iron sheet will not come into contact with any substance when it falls off."

Qian Xiaqing said finally.

"Wait until the iron sheet is caught by the gravitational formation, and then we, the cultivators in the Spiritualization Stage, will have to operate it."

“Let me show you.”

talking.

Qian Xiaqing suddenly glanced at the young cultivator Lian Yu beside him.

After the two exchanged glances, they both released their spiritual consciousness at the same time in tacit understanding.

With this spiritual power, the iron sheet that was lifted into the air began to slowly rise and soon returned to its original position.

At this point, Qian Xiaqing, who had been concentrating fully, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He said to Xie Shen.

"As you can see."

"Our main daily job is to use our spiritual sense to stick the fallen iron sheets back to their original positions."

When it comes to this.

Qian Xiaqing said with a hint of helplessness in his tone: "Back then, when I was in the middle stage of the Spiritualization Realm, I could have used my own strength to put the fallen iron sheet back to its original place."

"But these days are different."

"My current spiritual power is no longer as strong as before, as my spiritual heart has been damaged and my realm has fallen."

"So, I can only work together with Daoist Fellow Lianyu to stick the iron sheet back to its original position."

"Ugh"

Conversation room.

As the bronze statue was working, a piece of iron fell off it.

Seeing this, Xie Shen hurriedly imitated Qian Xiaqing and Lian Yu's techniques, releasing his spiritual consciousness to lift the iron sheet and slowly raise it into the air.

After a few seconds.

The fallen piece of iron sheet also returned to its original state.

"sure!"

Seeing Xie Shen easily stick the fallen iron sheet back.

Qian Xiaqing was a little surprised and said, "You only tried once, and you succeeded in sending the fallen iron sheet back. I'm afraid you must have reached the late stage of the Spiritualization Realm, right?"

"Ah,"

Faced with Qian Xiaqing's questioning, Xie Shen was unwilling to lie, but he was also unwilling to directly say that he had reached the fusion stage.

So he just smiled and said nothing.

Seeing that Xie Shen smiled without saying anything, Qian Xiaqing assumed that he agreed, so he stopped worrying about it.

He turned and said.

"In addition to the daily maintenance of the bronze statue, the management of Perfect City occasionally sends us to the affiliated planets to collect the power of faith."

"According to the regulations, for every unit of faith power we collect, we will receive a reward of 10 points."

"Uh," Xie Shen said in confusion, "We are in the Tower of Laws, so what we ask for will be granted, right?"

"In this case, is it necessary for us to earn extra points?"

"That's absolutely necessary." Qian Xiaqing emphasized: "After all, I've said it before, we only need to work honestly for Perfect City for 800 years, and then we can regain our freedom."

"So, now we naturally have to plan for the future in advance."

Qian Xiaqing calculated.

"I don't know what you are thinking, Brother Xie Shen."

"Anyway, ever since my Dao heart was damaged, I have completely accepted my fate."

"There is definitely no hope for me to break through in this lifetime."

"So I plan to save more points during my work. When I regain my freedom, I can directly purchase an immortal body in Perfect City."

"With my immortal body, I will be able to survive even if I fail to break through to the fusion stage in the future."

Talk about making extra money.

Qian Xiaqing immediately invited Xie Shendao.

"Just by chance."

"Today, fellow Daoist Lianyu and I plan to go to a satellite planet to collect the power of faith and have some fun while we're at it."

"I wonder if you are interested in going together?"

"No." Xie Shen shook his head and refused: "I'm very curious."

"By the way, the managers of Perfect City, are you so confident in your going to the affiliated planet?"

"Aren't you afraid that you will just run away?"

"We do want to run." Qian Xiaqing shook the law bracelet on his left hand and said to Xie Shen, "But the problem is, aren't we all still wearing the law bracelets on our hands?"

"Once you escape, the power of the law contained in this bracelet will be activated."

"By then, we will surely die."

After some conversation.

After explaining everything that needed to be said to Xie Shen, Qian Xiaqing and Lian Yu went directly to the affiliated planet of Perfect City through the teleportation array.

See the two of them leave.

Xie Shen, who had been holding it in for a long time, also hurriedly took out the combat power detector from his storage bag.

He planned to send all the information about the bronze statue to Li Xiu and ask him to help analyze it.
