The Last Sentinel

Inside the vast spaceship cabin, on the reaction energy furnace, rings of various status data lights flashed continuously.

Lu Jianxing stared intently at the numbers on the furnace's display screen.

The energy conversion rates of liquid metal elements are 99.5%, 99.7%, 99.9%, 99.8%, 99.7%, 99.8%...

This data can no longer be described as defying the heavens.

This is breaking through the boundaries of life!

Eighty percent is the limit for the human body to absorb elemental energy!

How could such an incredibly high absorption rate exist?!

Does this mean its body can absorb all liquid metal elements without any adverse reactions or rejection?

Is this...is this even human?

Can the human body be that strong?

However, what Lu Jianxing didn't know was that, as a circular warrior, Ye Feng's foundation was so solid that even the big shots in the chat group exclaimed that it was abnormal.

Even if you injected Ye Feng with the energy of metallic particles like titanium, carbon, iron, and silicon, or even if you fused all 118 elements of the periodic table into a liquid particle state and injected it into Ye Feng's body, he wouldn't experience a rejection reaction.

There's no other reason than that Ye Feng, the "Circular Warrior," originated from the Perfect Origin Continent and has been integrated with all known elements.

My body is the most powerful and perfect foundation in the universe; I can devour any element.

If it's from this universe, throw it at me as much as you want. If I even flinch, I'll admit defeat!

At this moment, in the chat group, Ye Feng and his buddies lined up, watching their bodies being modified.

Wuji Demon Lord: Tsk tsk, this kid is dumbfounded, haha! So much energy was thrown in, and Ye Feng absorbed it all without missing a single drop, haha!

Immortal God of Magic: What's that saying again? "Throwing meat buns to a dog is like throwing them away—they're gone forever!" This liquid energy might be poison to others, causing heavy metal poisoning, but what is Ye Feng? He's a perfect being who cultivates according to the periodic table and possesses a primordial body. Injecting him with this is like throwing a high-concentration stream of metal particles onto the Perfect Continent. The Perfect Continent is so vast; you could slowly dump it in, ideally including the entire stockpile of the Embroidered Uniform Guard and the resources of the Ming Dynasty. Let's see if Ye Feng can finish it all!

Great Love Immortal King: I really envy Ye Feng again. We both achieved enlightenment through refining Gu, but my final destination was a ninth-grade Gu, while Ye Feng's starting point was a tenth-grade Chaos Gu. It really proves the old saying: comparing people is a recipe for disaster, comparing goods is a recipe for disaster!

Hongmeng's First Affection: Alright, alright, let's get down to business! @Medical Saint, how's the research going?

Healer: My dear boss, I'm here! In my opinion, it's better not to treat the damage Ye Feng suffered from the Dimensional Blade. Let it maintain this continuous damage level, and ideally, let it leave a deep mark on Ye Feng's original body!

Wuji Demon Lord: Healer, are you drunk?! You're just going to let your illness run its course for fun instead of getting treatment?

The Sage of Medicine: Wuji, you illiterate, shut up! I'm serious, because I've realized something important: Ye Feng's injury was caused by the power of rules, and these rules don't belong to our home universe. So there's only one possibility: this power of rules comes from all the myriad worlds!

Upon hearing this, all the bigwigs in the room suddenly realized something.

Hongmeng's First Deepest Affection: I, I'm Chao, make sense!

Wuji Demon Lord: I understand. The Sage of Medicine means that if this power of rules can be analyzed, then it may be possible to trace the origin of the universe in the myriad dimensions and use the power of causal anchoring to travel to the universe to which this power of rules belongs.

Immortal God of Magic: Doesn't this directly break through the cosmic barrier and four lines of defense set up by the Third Calamity, the Mechanical Frenzy?

The Machine Lord sent a mocking dog emoji and said: "Homesick, huh? Stop daydreaming! If a causal anchor and the power of a rule can directly break the four shackles set by the God of Machines—the speed of light, entropy increase, the invisibility, and the paradox—then the God of Machines, Okarach, is utter trash. Okarach doesn't deserve to be the God of Machines; he should step down and let me take his place! I'll unleash the Mechanical Frenzy Catastrophe!"

Group member "The One at the End" has become active again.

The Man of the End: I disagree with the Lord of Machines' opinion. Do not underestimate the power of causal bonds. Even though the four great shackles and iron gates are incredibly strong, as long as the causal anchor is achieved and the power of causality is amplified, it is possible to open a small path around the four great shackles and iron gates to sneak into the myriad worlds and do some small things.

Ye Feng asked, "Senior End, what do I need to do to climb over the wall and take the shortcut to the myriad realms?"

The One at the End: Seal this dimensional rule power that is harming you, then find that shepherd and continue to devour this rule until you can control this other-dimensional rule. When that time comes, circle me, and I will teach you how to use the power of cause and effect to cross the wall to all the heavens and myriad worlds.

Ye Feng said: Thank you, senior.

Master of Machines: You old scoundrel from the End, how could you possibly leave the pass?

To the person who is about to die: Even if we are familiar with each other, if you talk nonsense, I will still sue you for defamation!

Master of Machines: Okay, I admit that what the guy surnamed Su said makes some sense, but this kind of sneaky over-the-wall behavior doesn't have much impact on the overall situation. At most, it just lets Ye Feng go out for a stroll, and it can't be sustained for long, let alone become a stable path or a route home. It can't be shared, and the route changes every time it's used, not to mention getting us in the group home.

Hongmeng's First Deepest Affection: That's indeed the case. The idea of ​​an "end" is just a vague, dreamlike experience across countless worlds, like a monkey trying to catch the moon or searching for flowers in a mirror.

The final man: looking at flowers in a mirror, gazing at the moon in water, though unable to touch them, can still see them. For Ye Feng, who has never seen the moon or flowers, this is a huge step forward. We should not look at this from our own perspective, but from Ye Feng's perspective back home. This wall-climbing is entirely beneficial to Ye Feng.

Ye Feng: I agree with what Senior Zhongyan said.

Hongmeng's First Deepest Affection: Enough, enough, but Ye Feng, don't forget, if you really want to bring the people of your hometown back to pick up thousands of wanderers, you must defeat the four great shackles and smash the iron gate of the barrier!

Ye Feng: Understood! Don't worry, Boss Shenqing, I won't forget!

Master of Machines: Hey old thief, don't go! How about we reconsider our suggestion to team up and destroy the Supreme God's Court last time...?

At this moment, the chat group was in complete chaos.

"Big brother, both sets of energy modules we brought have been completely used up!"

"Big brother! Something's not right! This kid is consuming way too much; his body's absorption and conversion rate is only 1%!"

"This is fucking weird. A normal person would at most consume half a set of energy modules, and even someone with a weak constitution would only consume one and a half sets at most. But his absorption rate is 100%. He's consumed two sets, and it's still only 1%! Is this guy a Star Kun? How can he be so big?"

At this moment, beads of sweat formed on Lu Jianxing's forehead. As a Jinyiwei (Imperial Guard) modified with a mechanical ascended body, Lu Jianxing had fewer glands than ordinary people, making sweating, a human behavior, very rare for him.

But now, beads of sweat rolled down his face, and Lu Jianxing was completely stunned.

At this moment, the third brother, Jin Yichuan, looked at Lu Jianxing and said, "Big brother, we must request energy support from our superiors!"

The second brother, Shen Lian, coldly replied, "A request? Heh, do you believe that the higher-ups will kick the three of us aside the next moment and say that he found Ye Feng and that the credit for this super soldier is his? Wouldn't the three of us brothers have worked for nothing then?"

Lu Jianxing crossed his arms and said coldly, "You're right, superiors are selfish and cannot be trusted."

The third brother, Jin Yichuan, said, "But, but this kid is currently in a crucial stage of transformation, and the energy blocks can't be cut off! The three of us brothers are destined to be errand runners; without a fortune, how can we support the super soldier to continue absorbing energy resources?"

Shen Lian seemed to be thinking about something, and then said, "How about we go find the Eastern Depot, brother?"

Jin Yichuan couldn't help but say, "Second Brother, are you crazy? The Eastern Depot and our Western Depot are at odds, like oil and water. They are the original humans, we are the robots, we..."

Shen Lian calmly said, "Among the three factories of East, West, and South, the Eastern Depot and the Embroidered Uniform Guard are the only ones that don't discriminate against robots. As for the irreconcilable differences between the factions, that's just a matter of the higher-ups not getting along. The relationship between the middle and lower levels is still okay. We can ask the Eastern Depot to join forces with them to assist the super soldier Ye Feng. As long as it works, Eunuch Yu, the commander-in-chief of the Eastern Depot's Eastern Garrison, is a fair and just person who knows right from wrong and rewards and punishes fairly. If we go to him and give him the super soldier Ye Feng, he won't treat us badly."

Jin Yichuan said coldly, "Yu Huatian? Untrustworthy! Big Brother is untrustworthy!"

Lu Jianxing pondered for a moment, then clenched his left hand so tightly that his knuckles cracked. "Change the ship's direction and head straight for Jinling City, to the residence of Yu Huatian, the chief commander of the Eastern Depot!"
