In the world of martial arts, one works tirelessly to attain enlightenment.

Chapter 188, Easing the Situation

The Realm of Blazing Fire.

Lin Ran came down from the pyramid and didn't go too far. She found a nearby spot, opened several layers of energy shields, and prepared to cultivate.

I originally wanted to see Lin, but the passage opened by the Mother Realm is one-way; once you come, you can't go back. Lin also has to guard the Mother Realm's defenses.

It requires the clan's fortune within the Blazing Fire Realm to develop to a certain level before the two-way passage can be opened, which is a long process.

Inside the energy shield.

Lin Ran took out the crystal given to her by Kong Ming and tentatively made contact with it using her mental energy.

I immediately sensed a large amount of information about the space, and at the same time, the skill panel quickly refreshed with prompts.

[Pupil Technique: Space, Experience +50]

[Pupil Technique: Space, Experience +50]

【…】

Kongming attained enlightenment through space, and in terms of spatial rules, no one in the entire human race could surpass her.

Lin Ran was like a sponge, frantically absorbing the information.

He is not worried about similar problems. Every time a skill is upgraded, the skill panel will be reviewed to make the skill more in line with the essence of the soul.

On the surface, it appears to be a copy, but in reality, it has already forged its own path.

Before long, the notification sound of skill upgrade rang out on the panel.

Lin Ran was immersed in the ocean of spatial information, paying little attention and frantically gaining experience.

Time passed slowly, skill upgrade prompts appeared again and again, and the crystal gradually faded and became transparent until it disappeared completely.

[Pupil Technique: Space LV10 → Rule: Space LV1]

[Rule: Space LV1: 1/500]

"Phew~"

Lin Ran's eyes flashed with light, and his spatial pupil technique evolved, upgrading to spatial rules!

This means that he can use it at any time, without necessarily needing to see it to activate it.

Normally, the rules are aligned with the rule realm/first realm.

Therefore, he now has to either narrow the scope of his application of the rules or reduce their power, otherwise he will only drain himself dry.

At this moment, his cultivation level has become his weakness.

Lin Ran opened her hand, and a thin, dark spatial rift appeared above her palm, emitting a suction force that devoured everything.

The power dissipated, and the spatial rift disappeared on its own.

Lin Ran carefully sensed the energy expenditure and nodded in satisfaction. This size of spatial rift could now be used dozens of times!

The top of the pyramid.

Kongming stared at Lin Ran, watching the spatial rift appear and disappear. He realized how terrifying Lin Ran's talent was and that the alien race must not be allowed to know about this speed!

After a moment of silence, a soft, clear voice called out.

"Heavenly Eye"

The illusory single eye opened a crack.

Kongming said, "My name is Beichen Yu. Erase this part of my memory, and at the same time erase all information related to the Mother Realm."

With a slight movement of his single eye, a small amount of golden light entered Kongming's brow.

……

The city at the foot of the mountain.

Lin Ran strolled leisurely through the streets.

With the support of the alliance, the city has developed rapidly, and large tracts of lush green farmland have already been harvested outside the city.

The rice seeds have undergone multiple improvements, jointly developed by the Science and Technology Research Institute and the Magic Research Institute. The Magic Research Institute is responsible for mutations, while the Science and Technology Research Institute is responsible for selection.

Over decades or even centuries, some perfectly suitable seeds will inevitably emerge.

At this time, the city's infrastructure was basically completed. Because the Skynet could not communicate with each other, the network here was separate from the human alliance of the mother world.

However, with the Heavenly Eye, a manifestation of the Mother Realm's will, acting as a relay, information silos are not created.

The vast majority of people in the city are cultivators; there are almost no ordinary people.

Because during the transformation process, the environment may undergo sudden changes that ordinary people cannot withstand, while only cultivators can survive.

It is estimated that it will take several years before ordinary people migrate here.

Lin Ran wandered around for a while and felt that this place was somewhat inferior to the cities of the human race's mother world, but not by much.

The efficiency of building to this extent in about six months is quite remarkable.

Not long after,

Zhou Yu, Lingzhu, Yan Lingfei, and Jian Linglong arrived together.

"Brother Lin, you've finally emerged from seclusion."

Yan Lingfei smiled brightly and rushed over to give him a bear hug.

Lin Ran smiled and caught Yan Lingfei.

"I gained some insights and spent some time practicing."

"This is the reward for taking over the Blazing Fire Realm."

Lin Ran opened her hand, and four rings floated out, landing in front of Zhou Yu, the Spirit Master, Yan Lingfei, and Jian Linglong respectively.

Although Jian Linglong is his sword spirit, she is also a member of the team, and he cannot leave her behind.

Yan Lingfei caught the ring and put it away without even looking at it.

Zhou Yu is the same.

The Spirit Lord examined the resources for a while and then said, "Captain, these resources aren't very useful to me. Do you have any others?"

"These are the resources I have at hand. See which one is useful."

Lin Ran handed the Spirit Master a list.

The Spirit Master selected several options and exchanged the resources for Lin Ran.

after that,

Lin Ran asked Yan Lingfei,

Has anyone told you the true situation of the Blazing Fire Realm?

"The truth? Isn't this the territory of the alien race? Could there be some other unexpected situation?" Yan Lingfei asked in surprise.

"It's a long story, come over and tell me slowly."

Lin Ran led the group into a coffee shop on the street, asked for a private room, and then told Yan Lingfei everything about Emperor Yan's situation.

Yan Lingfei remained silent for a long time.

"When I was very young, my grandfather told me that there was once an ancestor of the Yan family who was a superhuman, but for some reason, he disappeared overnight."

"If nothing unexpected happens, this may be the burial place of that ancestor."

Lin Ran took out her terminal, connected to the local area network, and found Kongming's communication.

"Senior, is Emperor Yan's surname Yan?"

Kongming: "Yes, Yan Linfeng, that's his name. He comes from the Yan family."

"Thank you, senior."

Lin Ran showed the chat messages to Yan Lingfei, who stared blankly for a while, her expression becoming somewhat complicated.

They thought it was territory they had conquered themselves, but it turned out to be a reward prepared by their ancestors for their descendants long ago.

After a long while, she sighed.

"Brother Lin, I'd like to go and pay my respects."

"Yes, I'll go with you. Maybe you can tell your grandfather."

Lin Ran nodded.

Yan Lingfei agreed: "Yes, but it's enough for my grandfather to know about this. There's no need for the rest of the Yan family to know, otherwise it will only cause trouble."

Lin Ran agreed, saying that a superhuman family like the Yan family, with its enormous size, would inevitably produce some fools.

Unfortunately, the body of this Yan Emperor has been completely destroyed, and a cenotaph can only be used in his place.

Afterwards, the group continued shopping, also looking for suitable items for Yan Lingfei to use in the memorial service.

After going around in circles, it got dark.

Lin Ran accompanied Yan Lingfei to the top of the pyramid.

Kongming was not seen this time; I don't know where she went.

……

The next day.

hotel.

Lin Ran stared blankly out the window. When was the last time she slept this deeply?

He was alone in the room. Yan Lingfei wanted to launch a night raid, but was stopped by the Spirit Lord. The two of them fought for half the night before finally falling asleep.

After a long while, Lin Ran came to her senses.

His consciousness sank into his mental space to check on the situation of the group, intending to help them and prepare cultivation resources for the transcendent realm.
