Chapter 342 Immortal Civilization

……

However, amidst the complex and varied memories, Wu Wen unexpectedly discovered traces of humanity.

"Eight thousand miles to the west of here lies a human city!"

Upon this discovery, Wu Wen did not delay at all; he immediately mounted his magnetic armored earth dragon and headed there.

Magnetic Armored Earth Dragon is the name Wu Wen gave to this strange beast.

Now, he knows it inside and out.

Weighing up to 4.5 tons, it can reach speeds of up to 32 kilometers per hour and has a bite force of up to 3800 tons.

He possesses two extraordinary abilities.

Geomagnetic navigation and electromagnetic pulse.

Geomagnetic navigation benefits from the magnetic sensory ganglion on the top of its head, whose structure, resembling an array of iron oxide nanocrystals, can keenly sense the Earth's magnetic field and guide its direction.

The electromagnetic pulse is a 1000-intensity magnetic field released instantaneously by the scales on its tail, with a pulse radius of up to 500 meters, and its power is astonishing.

Based on these characteristics, Wu Wen gave it the majestic name "Magnetic Armored Earth Dragon".

Galloping all the way,
Wu Wen rode his magnetic armored earth dragon at breakneck speed through the primeval jungle.
The strangely shaped plants around us flew by like phantoms.

Some plants resemble giant green mushrooms, with caps several meters wide and surfaces covered in fine hairs, seemingly greedily absorbing the free-floating radiation in the air; others are like twisted vines, intertwined to form eerie green cages, exuding a sense of mystery and danger...

Under Wu Wen's meticulous observation,
He discovered that the combined brilliance of the nine suns created a unique ecological environment for this land.

Therefore, the plants here are not only extremely vigorous, but also possess special survival abilities, the most basic of which is the ability to absorb radiation energy.

suddenly,

The Magnetic Armored Earth Dragon let out a low roar, and its pace slowed down.

Wu Wen looked up and saw a pungent smell permeating the jungle ahead. Some vines emitting a faint glow hung down from the trees, forming a natural barrier, seemingly warning anyone who came in not to enter.

Wu Wen could clearly sense that these vines contained powerful radiant energy, and that touching them would inevitably cause severe corrosion.

He gently patted the magnetic armored earth dragon's neck to soothe it.

at this time,

A group of strange beasts resembling bats suddenly flew out from the vines.

Their wings shimmered with an eerie blue light, their eyes burned like flames, and they emitted sharp, piercing cries, as if declaring war on Wu Wen and the Magnetic Armored Earth Dragon.

The swarm of bats, like a black whirlwind, pounced on Wu Wen and the magnetic-armored earth dragon.

Undeterred, the Magnet-Armored Ground Dragon unleashed a powerful electromagnetic pulse from its tail scales.

Nearby radiated bats were struck by the electromagnetic pulse, their bodies instantly stiffening, and they fell to the ground like raindrops.

Wu Wen rode the Magnetic Armored Earth Dragon slowly towards the bats that had fallen to the ground.

Although these bats were hit by the electromagnetic pulse, some of them were still twitching slightly and were not completely dead.

The blue light on their wings flickered intermittently, as if they were trying to gather the remaining energy and attempt to recover.

"keep going!"

Wu Wen patted the Magnetic Armored Earth Dragon's neck again, signaling it to go around the vine wall blocking its way.

along the way,

Wu Wen then encountered even more strange and unusual creatures.

There are large lizards that are five meters long, with a translucent layer of skin up to three centimeters thick. Their backs have crystalline dorsal sails containing chloroplast matrix, and their limbs have a photosynthetic vascular system. The dorsal sails can concentrate and release stored light energy.

There are giant birds with a wingspan of 20 meters. Their wing membranes have a hexagonal honeycomb structure that can open and close autonomously. The mane on their wing edges can disrupt air turbulence, enabling them to fly silently. They also have a secondary sternal pressure sac that can create a low-pressure zone with a diameter of 15 meters, which can suck up prey weighing up to three tons.

...These strange creatures, like precious materials, provided Wu Wen with a wealth of research subjects.

galloping all the way

Wu Wen finally arrived at his destination.

From afar, the city appears extremely magnificent, like a giant dragon coiled on the plain, and is estimated to be able to accommodate at least ten million people.

Overlooking the entire city, one can see thirty-six towering white jade pagodas arranged according to the constellations of the heavens. Each pagoda has a bronze mirror suspended atop it, the light from which weaves a net, enveloping the entire city like a fairyland.

What surprised Wu Wen even more was that he discovered that the "Han" flag was actually flying on the city wall!

"Could it be that our ancestors have been here before?"

Filled with doubt, Wu Wen urged the Magnetic Armored Earth Dragon to slowly approach.

As Wu Wen approached the city gate, he noticed that there were other people around him who, like him, owned a strange beast as a mount.

Some rode astride a unicorn with scales like bronze, while others were pressed beneath a giant scorpion with crystals growing on its back...

However, these people's mounts were far inferior to Wu Wen's Magnetic Armored Earth Dragon, just like the difference between a mule and a fine horse.

Furthermore, the gazes cast upon Wu Wenshi by those around him contained not only envy but also a great deal of awe.

Just then, Wu Wen looked up and saw a flying boat slowly approaching from the sky.

The flying boat was carved from green jade, its hull gleaming with a soft, flowing light. Twelve silver shuttle-shaped magical artifacts encircled the boat, drawing pale golden rune trails in the air.

An elderly man in a blue robe stood at the bow of the boat, tapping his dove-shaped staff lightly and uttering a few syllables. The entire flying boat landed as lightly as a feather.

"It's Elder Xuanguang from the Taiwei Sect!" someone exclaimed at the city gate.

Taiwei Sect! Elder Xuanguang! Wu Wen listened to the conversations around him, silently gathering useful information.

However, at that moment, the earth dragon suddenly let out a low roar, and the scales on its tail cracked open, revealing glands inside that flowed with silvery-white magnetic fluid.

Wu Wen sensed the emotional fluctuations of his mount, which was staring in the direction of the flying boat. The silver shuttles circling the hull made it instinctively wary.

"Interesting." Elder Xuanguang's voice came from above. He tapped his dove-like staff lightly on the edge of the jade boat, and the twelve silver shuttles suddenly changed direction, all pointing at Wu Wen.

The earth dragon trembled instantly, its tail brimming with electromagnetic pulses, but these pulses gradually subsided under Wu Wen's palm pressing against the back of its neck.

"Young friend, may I take a look at this mount?" Elder Xuan Guang appeared in a flash, his wide robe sleeves fluttering even without wind.

Just as Wu Wenzheng was about to reply, he suddenly saw more than ten riders rush out of the city. The leader rode a five-zhang-long purple-scaled dragon with a banner bearing the character "Han" stuck on its head, looking very imposing.

"Elder Xuan Guang!" the brocade-clad youth on the purple-scaled dragon announced loudly, "My father said that the Xuanbing Marrow you requested has been prepared and a banquet will be held at the City Lord's Mansion to await you."

As he spoke, his gaze swept over Wu Wen, lingering for a moment on the Earth Dragon: "This mount seems to resemble the Magnet Dragon Beast from the records."

Elder Xuanguang stroked his beard and laughed, "Your Highness has excellent eyesight! This Magnetic Dragon Beast has been lost in the ancient records for a thousand years. I never expected to see it here today."

He suddenly turned to Wu Wen, "Young friend, would you be willing to make a deal with me? I would like to give you this Xuan Guang Shuttle."

Wu Wen smiled slightly and said, "Sorry, I really like my mount and have no intention of selling it!"

"That's such a pity!" Elder Xuanguang sighed and shook his head.

"Your Highness, let's go into the city!" the young man in brocade said, turning and leaving with him.

Although the two men didn't say a word, Wu Wen could clearly sense that they were both eyeing his mount.

"I'm new here, so I'm choosing to keep a low profile, but that doesn't mean I'm weak. I hope they don't make a fool of themselves!"

Wu Wen sighed inwardly, then slowly rode the magnetic armored earth dragon into the city.
