Chapter 923 A Prosperous yet Barren World

A strange, unprecedented, bizarre, super-fast, all-metal aircraft suddenly appeared in the "sky beyond the clouds", which immediately attracted countless attention.

On the "land" composed of floating plants, countless flying figures shuttled back and forth, passing on this unprecedented news to each other.

For example, on a super floating land, a group of "hawks" were discussing fiercely.

"I saw the fastest flying Thunder Wing Clan's first warrior chasing after him, but he couldn't even catch up with his shadow."

"Too fast, it disappeared in the blink of an eye."

"I only saw a stream of light flying in front of me. By the way, there was a faint stream of light on its surface, which looked like the gods and demons from the Nine Lands in the legend."

"I seemed to see it falling from the sky. Could it be from the Black Void?"

"The Black Void is impossible. We can't find any metal here, let alone the Black Void."

"Legend has it that if you pass through the Black Void, you will reach a world full of treasures. Maybe this thing came from the treasure world?"

...

The eagle-like people were discussing, the goose people were discussing, the moth people were discussing, and the octopus people were discussing.

A flying machine that suddenly appeared caused a large-scale excitement; and this was just the beginning.

Chu Fei didn't care about these things. He was now shuttling through the "sky" at a speed of 2,300 kilometers per hour.

At this time, the air layer here has about 10 standard atmospheric pressures of the Earth. The air is relatively dense, and it consumes a lot to maintain a speed of 2,300 kilometers per hour.

During the flight, Chu Fei (the clone) kept observing the surroundings. The number and types of life here are staggering. Just intelligent life, after flying for an hour, more than 30 kinds were found.

Perhaps because the world is large enough and the life energy is abundant enough, there are more lives than you can imagine.

There are 7 kinds of people similar to eagles and bird-bodied people;

There are 15 kinds of insects like butterfly people, wasp people, etc.;

There are also 4 kinds of marine life, such as octopus people, mermaids, seahorses, etc.

Even a kind of intelligent life similar to coral reefs was found - countless small insects formed the outline of heads, neatly arranged, and had their own houses.

A "plant-type intelligent life" was also found, which is a unique suspended vine that can form tentacles to attack enemies and protect its "fruits".

These vines form a "clan" with a radius of hundreds of kilometers and a height of more than ten kilometers. Different individuals are scattered and interconnected. When encountering foreign invasion, several adjacent "plant groups" will attack together.

Chu Fei was amazed by so many intelligent lives. Although some of them don't look very intelligent, they are also intelligent lives.

When seeing such a world, the first thing Chu Fei thought of was - faith!

There are so many intelligent lives in this world. In terms of quantity, it is estimated to be equivalent to the population of the Yanhuang Federation at its peak. If you can leave faith in such a world, how much spiritual power or faith power can you get!

However, faith is something that needs to be carefully considered. If it is that kind of mixed faith power, Chu Fei would rather not have it.

Fortunately, Chu Fei already has some basic ideas, thanks to the precious wealth left by the Yanhuang civilization, such as Pangu opening the sky and Yandi Huangdi.

The Yanhuang civilization has some faith in Pangu, but never asks Pangu to do anything. Because Pangu died after opening the sky.

Emperor Yan and Emperor Huang shaped the Yanhuang civilization. We worship our ancestors every year, but we don’t ask the two emperors to come back to life.

Why did the Yanhuang civilization emphasize deification after death? This is not random. I’m dead, you can’t ask me to do this or that anymore.

Those who are deified while alive will naturally have to bear huge cause and effect, and the desires of believers are insatiable. The desires of human beings and the desires of intelligent life are a bottomless abyss.

So those who are deified while alive will die sooner or later, but it is better to be deified after death. This is called putting yourself in a desperate situation and then reborn.

But how to "die" is a problem.

There is an old saying in the Yanhuang civilization, called: die well, and "a good death is worse than a bad life" also has "a good death". There is also a compliment in the colloquialism "you died well".

This is not a curse word, the corresponding ones are: no place to bury the body after death, no reincarnation forever, crushing bones and scattering ashes, soul flying away, etc.

In fact, it is okay to pulverize the bones and scatter the ashes, because this is what people do now, but it is best to pulverize the bones and scatter the ashes after the body is suspended for seven days after death. It is said that it takes seven days for the soul to mature and shed its shell, which is the so-called return night and the first seven days.

Chu Fei's clone was observing below, while Chu Fei's main body was thinking about the plan in space.

Below, after the aircraft advanced more than 50,000 kilometers in the air layer of 10 atmospheres, it continued to dive and came to the air layer of 15 atmospheres, descending about 300 kilometers.

Here, it is another world, which is completely different from the above, and the difference can be seen by the naked eye. There is a sense of déjà vu from the temperate forest to the tropical rainforest.

The life here is more dense, and it also intercepts more light. The leaves of the plants are no longer pitch black, but have some different colors.

The life energy here is more intense, and the intelligent life is more powerful. Chu Fei even saw a war. According to the analysis of the battle situation, the combat effectiveness of the life here has reached 8.0, but not 10.0.

Don't think that reaching 8.0 is nothing. According to data calculations, as human beings, the comprehensive quality of people with 8.0 can reach 283% of that of ordinary people (7.5). According to the calculation that a 10% difference in strength is one level, the difference between the two is 28 small levels.

In terms of metal hardness, the hardness of top-grade steel can reach 65hrc, and the hardness of common tungsten steel knives is about 75hrc. The data difference between the two is 15.4%, but tungsten steel can cut iron like mud.

In this battle, almost all members are above 8.0, which really surprised Chu Fei.

Of course, considering that there are 15 earth atmospheres here, it seems understandable.

It's just that the materials that the two sides fought for surprised Chu Fei. What they fought for was actually - soil and gravel.

Chu Fei flew over the battlefield, and the two sides separated, staring at each other. Chu Fei also took the opportunity to scan the items they fought for and confirmed that they were ordinary soil and gravel.

Why fight for this thing? It looks like only three cubic meters, but as a result, hundreds of people from both sides fought and more than ten people died.

Chu Fei did not stop, but continued to fly. After flying more than 20,000 kilometers, he found a "volcano".

To be precise, it was a volcanic cloud formed by volcanic ash.

The rolling volcanic cloud soared into the sky, covering an area of ​​almost 7,000 kilometers, and around the volcanic cloud, countless flying intelligent life used various containers to collect volcanic ash.

This volcanic ash that soared into the sky was very thin, but tens of millions of intelligent life gathered around it. There were also robberies during the transportation.

After observing for a while, Chu Fei realized.

Stones, soil, and dust are indeed precious resources.

There are no minerals in the upper layer of this world, only air, water vapor, and carbon dioxide (which can provide carbon elements). But the existence of life requires minerals.

Those trace elements need to be obtained from the outside world. And the best way to obtain them here is volcanic ash and perhaps the other party's corpse (ashes).

At present, this world is prosperous, with too many intelligent life and intelligent species;

But this world is also barren, barren beyond imagination, there is not even a stone in the high-altitude world, and the source of minerals is extremely narrow and rare.

For a stone, a war between two races can be triggered.

Chu Fei has not seen the battle within the race, perhaps because there are too many intelligent lives and too much external pressure, and the contradictions within the race are suppressed.

The aircraft bypassed the volcanic cloud, and by the way, countless "people" saw the strange aircraft.

Chu Fei continued to move forward for more than 20,000 kilometers. After collecting enough materials, he descended again and came to the air layer with 20 atmospheres of pressure.

The density of life here has increased a little, but it is also more "constrained". They will consciously shrink their living space and give more light to the upper layer. But this is not because of kindness, but because the upper layer will throw things down-paying taxes.

Occasionally, Chu Fei sees an attack from the upper layer on the lower layer. Although the upper layer pays more, after the lower layer is attacked, it is attacked by its neighbors.

A dynamic balance has been formed here.

From Chu Fei's perspective, this is an interesting world. However, from the perspective of local life, this is a cruel world. In order to survive, everyone must do their best.

Chu Fei continued to descend until the surrounding pressure increased to 3,000 atmospheres. The situation changed, and the density of life began to decrease significantly, but the strength of life also increased rapidly.

The breath of life here all started at level 10.0.

The speed of the aircraft here was suppressed to 500 kilometers per hour. The air density here is too high, and it is a bit difficult to fly. Fortunately, the surrounding life is the same, and the flight is also very slow.

After encountering several interceptions, Chu Fei had to launch two missiles to let these guys see the power of civilization.

Not to mention, the power of the bomb explosion here is similar to the underwater situation, with a smaller range, but great power.

After flying more than 5,000 kilometers here again, enough data was basically collected. The atmospheric pressure here is more than Chu Fei expected, mainly because the carbon dioxide content in the air is too high, and the molar mass of carbon dioxide exceeds that of oxygen and nitrogen.

At this time, Chu Fei's descent depth has reached 20,000 kilometers, and the temperature here has reached 42 degrees. For ordinary people, it is already a dead environment. But the life here is even stronger.

Chu Fei continued to dive. As he continued to dive, the light continued to increase, and the plants became more colorful, but the temperature continued to rise. The plants under high temperature were no longer flexible, but more like thorns, and looked unpalatable.

As he continued to descend, as the air density continued to increase, the atmospheric pressure and temperature began to rise rapidly.

When Chu Fei reached 10,000 atmospheres, he had reached a depth of 30,000 kilometers. At this time, the surrounding temperature was over 100, and the light was a bit dazzling.

But there is also life here, and it is even stronger. There are powerful beasts and intelligent life. Chu Fei saw a mermaid-like existence.

The atmosphere here is as viscous as the ocean. Chu Fei just saw a group of "mermaids" more than three meters tall hunting a "sea dragon" that is 100 meters long.

This sea dragon looks like a sea snake, but it has horns on its head. In an environment with great resistance, this "dragon horn" is like a bull horn, sharp and sharp, with cold light flashing.

The speed of the aircraft can only be maintained at a speed of 100 kilometers per hour, which is really slow. Chu Fei was not panicked either, he just watched the battle outside quietly.

Based on the intensity of the battle, the life here is infinitely close to 12.0; the reason why it has not broken through 12.0 is that advanced life requires strong wisdom. After reaching 12.0, if there is not enough wisdom to support it, it is impossible to break through the threshold of life.

And so far, Chu Fei has not found any superpowers used by these lives. They are all fighting with their bodies. It can be regarded as full-member martial arts or primitive martial arts.

But the combat effectiveness and physical strength of the life here are extraordinary. Living in such a harsh environment for many years, those with weak bodies have long been eliminated.

This is completely different from the deep-sea life on Earth. The deep sea on Earth is pitch black, and most of the life is corrosive, and the competition is not fierce.

But it is different here. The lower you go, the brighter it is, and the battle is fierce with light. In this fierce competitive environment, the weak have long been eliminated.

However, the number of lives here is obviously much sparser. This is understandable. The harsh environment and fierce competition are one aspect, and the other is that the strong need a wider living space.

Suddenly, several mermaids broke away from the battle circle and "swam" towards Chu Fei. These guys were very fast, obviously faster than the aircraft. They came outside the aircraft in a short while and knocked with the steel forks in their hands.

These mermaids already had metal in their hands. I don’t know how they were cast, but they were very hard.

Chu Fei (clone) directly revealed his aura, and the clone also had an aura of 14.9. Several mermaids around him were frightened and retreated.

The aircraft flew slowly. The mermaids looked around and found no danger, so they surrounded it again.

Chu Fei sighed, "All intelligent life has a common problem. They feel uncomfortable if they don’t get beaten!"

Chu Fei opened the flying storage and appeared directly.

Seeing a completely unfamiliar creature appear, and only half their height, a group of mermaids became excited, and the first one poked Chu Fei’s legs with a fork.

Chu Fei directly expanded his domain.

"Boom..."

The domain of the clone also had a diameter of ten kilometers. The surrounding mermaids and the struggling "sea dragon" were instantly frozen.

The mermaid holding the fork and about to poke Chu Fei was scared and wanted to struggle but couldn't move.

Chu Fei approached the mermaid and looked at her carefully, and found that she was not ugly.

In fact, this is understandable. The evolution of life is always instinctively pursuing perfection. Therefore, as long as the evolution level is high enough, it will basically not be too ugly-maybe it will be weird, but not ugly.

If you want to be faster, you must have explosive power, which will show the beauty of power;

If you want to reduce resistance, you must have streamlines, which will show a beautiful shape;

If you want to attack more concisely and powerfully, there will be no fancy things, which will show a simple beauty;

The combination of multiple beauties will form more beautiful creatures.

Low-level insects will be ugly and make people feel creepy; but top-level creatures are very beautiful. This is evolution, an improvement in the dimension of life.

In fact, if you look closely at the powerful predators in the natural world of the earth, there is really no ugly one.

Of course, the "beauty" here refers to the broad sense, which may not conform to human aesthetics.

At present, these mermaids are slender, fit, and have strong and powerful arms; the tail is a fin, and there is a pair of wings behind them that are similar to seahorses, but they are larger, more beautiful, and have a double-wing structure.

The head is triangular, or in other words, a venomous snake structure, with a neck of more than 20 centimeters long, foldable ears, eyes, a slightly bulging forehead, and a mouthful of fangs.

The mermaid is light blue in color, covered with scales, and there is a metallic sound when it is knocked.

It does not conform to human aesthetics, but the overall appearance is full of explosive power and has a beauty of killing.

Scanning the forehead, it is found that the ultrasonic perception system is similar to that of dolphins.

The air density in the current environment is extremely high, and the speed of sound is also very high, almost approaching the speed of sound in seawater. The high air density also leads to a short visual distance, and sound wave perception is very effective.

After observing the mermaids around, Chu Fei had a good idea in his mind. His physical fitness was obviously better than that of humans with a physical fitness of 12.0, but his cultivation level was not good, and he relied entirely on natural perception.

To form a powerful cultivation system, sufficient civilization and cultural support are needed, and more importantly, sufficient knowledge is needed to support it.

As far as Chu Fei saw, the life here has not completely gotten rid of barbarism, and can only be said to be in the early stages of civilization.

Take this mermaid for example, it relies entirely on its own scales for defense, without armor. Although there is a lack of metal here, bone armor is always OK. It doesn't require full body armor, but a chest mirror or something will do. But there is nothing.

Just by observing these details, Chu Fei understood a lot: in this super huge living space, all races need to face threats from all directions, and survival is already very difficult, so how can they have the energy to study more.

The environment here also triggered Chu Fei's reflection: the development and growth of civilization requires a certain amount of war and external pressure, but too much pressure is not good. Everything is too much.

Therefore, it was indeed a miracle that the Yanhuang civilization could come step by step from the wilderness and continue to grow. The right time, right place and right people are indispensable.

After observing for a while, Chu Fei finally patted the sea dragon's head, and then slowly returned to the aircraft, and then the aircraft ignited and flew away slowly.

The field has disappeared, and the surrounding mermaids and sea dragons were stunned for a long time, and then quietly dispersed.

Chu Fei continued to dive deeper. When he dived to a depth of 35,000 kilometers, the air pressure reached 13,000 times the atmospheric pressure, the temperature exceeded 200 degrees Celsius, and he began to detect obvious sulfur oxides in the air, such as sulfur dioxide and sulfur trioxide.

From here on, no large life can be seen, but there are many microorganisms. Many microorganisms use sulfur oxides as energy, which also invisibly blocks the spread of sulfur oxides to the upper layers.

The existence of these microorganisms ensures the normal reproduction of life on this planet.

When diving to a depth of 40,000 kilometers, the atmospheric pressure reached 20,000 standard atmospheric pressures, and the temperature exceeded 500 degrees, Chu Fei finally saw the "ground".

The temperature of the earth can reach more than 2,000 degrees, the whole is red and white, and there are lava everywhere; from time to time, there are lava eruptions, and minerals will be thrown into the void.

There are no traces of life here. Close to the ground, it is full of thick sulfur oxides, most of which are toxic and harmful gases with high density and will hardly spread to the upper layers.

The aircraft slowly passed over the ground. In the dense atmosphere, the aircraft could only guarantee a speed of 60 kilometers per hour at full speed.

The "volcanic eruption" here is also very interesting. It is a violent collision of lava flows. The speed of the lava flow here can reach a maximum speed of several thousand kilometers per hour, like an alternative storm. In addition, there are geomagnetic explosions, similar to the magnetic storm phenomenon of solar wind.

It is this magnetic storm phenomenon that can throw lava, volcanic ash, etc. to tens of thousands of kilometers in the sky, bringing minerals to the high-altitude environment.

After exploring the general situation, Chu Fei had a clear understanding of the current planet.

This planet is large enough, and the civilization here is too primitive, so all life has a limited understanding of the current world.

In addition, this planet is in the gravitational string, and it is pitch black outside, so you can't see the outside world at all, and you don't know that there is a world outside.

While thinking, Chu Fei had an idea-I want to be the Pangu of this world!

Bring you civilization and culture, and you just give back faith.

It's just such a big world, how to "preach"?

While thinking, Chu Fei looked at the ground under his feet.

If you want to preach in such a huge world, you must borrow the power of technology, and if you want to exert the power of technology, you need resources.

There are very few resources on the spacecraft, so you can only get resources from this planet.

The most abundant resource on the current planet is actually carbon, which can generate carbon fiber materials and many other materials. However, the necessary metal elements cannot be lacking.

It is only a matter of time to do metallurgy in a lava environment with a pressure of more than 20,000 atmospheres and more than 2,000 degrees Celsius.

After a long period of comprehensive consideration, Chu Fei finally made a decision - let's talk about it later.

Now, go back to Yunlong Star first, solve the matter of Yunlong Star, and you have plenty of time to deal with the situation here. There are no masters here, but you can leave the clone here to continue the investigation.

But the clone is not just for exploration, but also for "propaganda". Chu Fei left two 14.9 clones and two aerospace planes.

The two planes easily found some large floating "plant land" and began to make trouble, oh, to spread some "miracles".

The two aerospace fighters would occasionally shuttle and change temporary bases to spread rumors, no, preach, and leave myths and legends. I create my own myths.

In this world that has no name yet, Chinese characters and strange words began to appear; these Chinese characters are difficult, and for most of the intelligent life here that is still in the early stages of civilization, this is the text of God. And these difficult texts record a lot of things.

Cultivation, Taoism, Buddhism, magic, evil cultivation, magic, martial arts, fighting, witchcraft, black magic, science and big data cultivation, etc. Various contents have been translated. There are also music, art, culture, aesthetics, ideology and morality, etc. are also being spread simultaneously.

However, Chu Fei's two clones will also make trouble. Their faces are slightly different, their clothes are even more different, and the color of the aircraft has also changed. When imparting knowledge, they are divided into two directions. One is biased towards the right way, but the content is more difficult; the other is biased towards the wrong way, the content is relatively simple, the cultivation is easier, but there are some consequences.

There is vitality only when there is competition. Chu Fei knows this very well. Without competition, contradictions are created and competition is stimulated.

For native life, these suddenly appearing contents are so complicated that it is impossible to rely on translation to read them. Therefore, if you want to truly understand the true meaning, you still have to learn this kind of square characters well.

While learning square characters, a brand called "Yanhuang" quietly appeared in the hearts and souls of all intelligent races.

But Chu Fei has already started the spaceship and left here. (End of this chapter)
