Ancient Civilization Relic No. 9, located in the underground base.

The gate to the Relics Passage opened, and Qin Mu emerged from it.

A beam of light swept across the top of the passageway.

"Welcome back, War God Qin Mu."

The underground base's security system emitted a synthesized electronic sound.

"Qin Mu, the God of War, is back! Immediately notify the military high command!"

"It's already October 26th, almost a month."

"That's normal. Some people have been inside for months; this is only twenty-odd days. This is our invincible war god of the Chinese military!"

"..."

Inside the underground base, nearly a hundred technicians were discussing the matter animatedly, with those from China being particularly excited and immediately contacting their superiors.

This base was jointly built by various major forces on Earth, and each force has personnel stationed there long-term. Any powerful member of the War God Palace can apply to enter the ruins.

Generally speaking, it takes about a month to get out of the ruins; any later and you might encounter danger.

The two Chinese War Gods who entered with Qin Mu have already come out; Qin Mu was the last one to emerge.

"Good lad, I knew you'd come back safe and sound."

Having waited for almost a month in the ruins, Jiang Long, who was growing increasingly impatient, rushed to greet Qin Mu when he saw him emerge unharmed.

My heart, which had been hanging in suspense, can finally be put at ease.

"Thank you for your help, Brother Jiang."

Seeing the expression on Jiang Long's face, Qin Mu said.

Qin Mu could have come out earlier, but he stayed a few more days to fully master the "Basic 312 Style".

Qin Mu gained a lot from this trip to the ruins, laying a solid foundation and clarifying the direction for the future.

"You've been inside for so long, even Councilor Jia has asked you twice, how's it going?"

Jiang Long asked in a good mood.

"I got the Black God Set."

Qin Mu smiled and didn't say anything more.

Within the ruins, Qin Mu promised the bald crystal man not to reveal anything about them, and he had no intention of breaking his promise.

Qin Mu only stayed in the ruins for less than a month, which was normal, and Jiang Long didn't ask any further questions.

"That's good, as long as we got it."

"Go back now, the military has prepared a victory celebration banquet for you!"

"it is good."

……

When I returned from the military's victory celebration banquet, it was already the next day.

After resting for a day at the Shengshi Jiangnan residential area in Yangzhou, I finally recovered from my fatigue.

Qin Mu controlled the magnetic field of the planet within his body, and with the help of his mental power, he soared into the sky, arriving above the residential area.

"Finally, I can give it a try."

The Golden Flame Divine Eagle circled and waited nearby, but Qin Mu did not ride it this time. Instead, he planned to fly on his own and test his speed.

The golden auxiliary light brain is very powerful in all aspects. In addition to all the functions of the communication watch, network defense, and intrusion capabilities, it can also test the basic combat power values ​​from apprentice level to cosmic level.

It also has functions such as detecting whether the environment within a certain range is safe, and testing speed, strength, etc., to assist in cultivation.

It is one of the essential items for martial artists in the universe.

In preparation for future space travel, at Qin Mu's request, the auxiliary computer was also equipped with a universal language tutorial.

This was something Qin Mu specifically suggested after talking with the bald crystal man and learning about the universe in detail.

Qin Mu possessed great talent and had also joined Meteorite Star, so the bald crystal man certainly wouldn't refuse such a small matter.

"Start speed test."

call out!call out!call out!

Qin Mu's figure flashed through the air, creating a violent sonic boom.

"Using only mental power, the speed reached 1823 meters per second!"

"What if we add a magnetic field to propel it?"

"boom--"

In mid-air, Qin Mu's figure suddenly accelerated again.

"2516 meters per second!"

"The speed is not bad; it's about the same speed as a typical planetary level 5 vehicle."

On Earth, in terms of speed, only Thor and Hong are probably faster than me.

"It's a pity I don't have the Sky-Piercing Shuttle, otherwise this speed could be doubled!"

After testing for a while, Qin Mu stopped.

"Let's test my current attack power again."

Short spears flew out from behind him. These were 72 spears that Qin Mu had just bought, and they were all SS-level.

This completely emptied the military's SS-level short spears, and Qin Mu spent a lot of money to buy them.

One of the short spears transformed into a streak of light and struck a small mountain in the distance, piercing through the entire mountain, causing smoke to billow and the mountain peak to collapse.

"Attack Power: 76% of Planetary Level 1 (Psychic)"

"With a strength of 176 million kilograms, it's not far from reaching the second-tier planetary level."

Qin Mu was somewhat pleased.

According to the auxiliary computer's description, the minimum to maximum value for a first-tier planetary-level mentalist is 100-200 million kilograms, and 76% of a first-tier planetary-level mentalist is 176 million kilograms.

Qin Mu's breakthrough was due to reaching the limit of enhancement and breaking through on his own, so it's not surprising that he has this data.

"Let me test the number of short spears I can now perfectly control."

With a thought, Qin Mu unleashed a series of short spears from a backpack on his back.

A total of fifty-six short spears darted around Qin Mu, each one controlled with exquisite precision.

"boom--"

"boom--"

"boom--"

The already collapsed hill looked as if it had been subjected to a massive bombing, and the entire peak was flattened.

56 times the amplitude!

Before becoming a planetary-level being, Qin Mu's amplitude had already reached 49 times!

After the breakthrough, the essence of life leaped forward, and consciousness became much stronger, allowing control of more short spears, though this had not been attempted before.

After confirmation, Qin Mu's mental attack has now reached an astonishing amplitude of 56 times!

"There is also the secret technique of 'Escape from Heaven'."

A secret manual, shimmering with starlight, flew out from a hidden compartment in the backpack behind him.

After leaving the ruins, Qin Mu hadn't had a chance to look at this manual yet. The manual's paper was made of a special black material, and the cover had tiny starlight on it.

With a little perception, one can sense that this secret manual exudes a chilling aura.

"As expected of a secret manual that only elite disciples of Meteorite Star can cultivate, it looks quite extraordinary."

Opening the manual, a line of words filled with warning and murderous intent appeared.

"This is a secret technique of the Meteorite Star Masters. Those who practice it must never pass it on to anyone outside Meteorite Star. To do so, even to other members of Meteorite Star, is to be punished with sixty years of hard labor. If it is passed on to anyone outside Meteorite Star… death is the only punishment!!!"

Ignoring the warning, Qin Mu scrolled down and passed the elite assessment, becoming a member of Meteorite Star.

Besides, Meteorite Star is long gone, so this warning is just for show.

"Unfortunately, this 'Heavenly Escape' secret technique requires the Heavenly Escape Shuttle to truly unleash its power."

"By learning the secret technique of 'Escape to Heaven' and using it in conjunction with the Escape to Heaven Shuttle, one's strength can be multiplied, allowing members of Meteorite Star to kill enemies of higher ranks."

"The Sky Shuttle has three main forms."

"In the first stage, one can begin cultivation once the amplitude reaches 12."

"The second form can only be cultivated when the amplitude reaches 30."

"The third form is the ultimate form of the Sky Shuttle, which requires reaching the 'cosmic level,' possessing one's own domain, and having an amplitude of 48 to cultivate."

Turn the pages of the manual one by one and read them carefully.

"With my strength, I can easily master the first two forms, but unfortunately the third form requires reaching the cosmic level and possessing a domain."

Qin Mu has already met the simple amplitude requirement, but he is not enough for the domain and universe-level strength requirements.

"Currently, Hong is probably the only one on the entire Earth who possesses a domain, right? Thor only comprehended his domain shortly before facing the Golden Horned Beast."

With these thoughts in mind, Qin Mu did not stop and continued flipping through the pages.

"The Sky Shuttle has three modes: attack mode, defense mode, and flight mode."

Upon seeing this, Qin Mu frowned.

This secret manual requires the use of the Sky-Piercing Shuttle to be mastered. It's not just about the method of manipulation; it also requires the application of the intricate patterns on the Sky-Piercing Shuttle to truly unleash its power.

However, Qin Mu still patiently examined it carefully. He didn't believe that the "Escape to Heaven" secret technique was useless without the Escape to Heaven Shuttle. It would be good to learn some skills.

The "Escape to Heaven" technique is divided into three major forms, each with three levels, for a total of nine levels.

Except for the last three floors, which are inaccessible, the first six floors can be freely browsed.

"The first attack form, the Mountain Drill Cone, is very similar to the Sky-Piercing Cone that I developed myself."

"It's not just simple high-speed rotation; it also involves the coordination of mental power and the flow of energy. Combined with the patterns on the Sky-Piercing Shuttle, it can triple its destructive power!"

"This technique is far superior to the one I figured out myself."

While learning, Qin Mu tried to master the manipulation techniques of the mountain-drilling cone. Fifty-six short spears rotated continuously in front of him at a peculiar frequency.

The rapidly spinning spears were noticeably uncoordinated; during the rotation, spears were occasionally thrown out and then flew back in.

After a while, things stabilized a bit, and Qin Mu waved his hand.

"go"

The cone-shaped formation of rapidly spinning short spears transformed into a streak of light, piercing into the collapsed mountain peak at an extremely high speed.

As if sweeping away dry leaves and decaying matter, the cone-shaped object easily pierced deep into the earth, raising clouds of dust. After moving through the ground for a while, it emerged from the soil.

"The speed is faster than before, and the penetrating power has been greatly improved."

In just a short while, his strength had noticeably improved.

"Indeed, this is the benefit of having a lineage. Even without the Sky Shuttle, the operating techniques alone have benefited me greatly. With more practice, its power can be increased."

A glint flashed in Qin Mu's eyes; he became even more interested in the Sky-Piercing Shuttle.

"I had to find a way to obtain a complete inheritance. Just a little bit of basic knowledge has improved my strength so much."

"If I could obtain the complete inheritance, just how much would my strength increase?!"

In the void, Qin Mu stood, gazing into the distance.

On Earth, there are only two places that can give him a complete inheritance: one is the Zerg Queen, and the other is the Meteorite Starship under Fog Island.

"Once the Zerg swarm is settled, we'll make a trip to Kirishima and Ruins 31."

"My current strength and speed are comparable to a fifth-tier planetary expert, and my attack has a 56-fold amplitude. At full power, even Hong and Thor might not be stronger than me!"

After careful consideration, Qin Mu realized that his strength seemed to have reached the pinnacle of the world.

According to the information from the bald crystal man, the strongest being on Earth, Hong, is a sixth-order planetary being, and Thor is a seventh-order planetary being.

Besides them, there are two planetary level 3 individuals, while the rest are planetary level 1 and 2. Even the strongest member of the Chinese military, Councilor Jia, is only at planetary level 2.

"I can kill anything below the third level of the planetary class. You'll only know how strong Hong and Thor are after you've fought them."

Hong possesses the domain, but I can also summon the power of the swarm for a combined attack.

If it really comes to a life-or-death battle, we could mobilize millions, tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions of Zerg and wear him down!

Thinking about this, a thought arose in Qin Mu's mind, and he felt somewhat emotional.

"Our strength has finally increased. We've been playing it safe and developing, so the Zerg swarm can now expand aggressively!"
