Chapter 375 Ancient Battlefield Ruins, Treasures Everywhere
Inside the jump tunnel, there were elongated bands of light all around.
There is neither day nor night.
Lu Sheng lay on the worn-out leather chair in the command room, his legs propped up on the control panel. He held a handful of high-dimensional primordial crystals in his hand, popping them into his mouth one after another like peanuts.
"It tastes bland." He chewed a crystal and swallowed it.
For the past thirty-odd days, he has simply been lying down and eating. The Devouring Furnace within his body spun at a steady pace, refining these crystals into spiritual energy. However, the spiritual energy within his body was already overflowing. The seed of his small world remained quietly in his dantian, showing no sign of sprouting.
The energy in the crystal is now like drinking plain water to him—it doesn't quench his hunger.
"When are we finally going to arrive?" Lu Sheng was getting a little impatient.
The voice just fell.
The warship shuddered violently, emitting a piercing metallic scraping sound.
Lu Sheng almost fell off his chair.
"What's going on?" He steadied himself.
The number ten terracotta warrior stood in front of the control panel, operating it rapidly.
"Reporting to Master. The warp drive is being interfered with by unknown external laws and is unable to maintain faster-than-light speeds. It is forcibly exiting the warp portal."
boom.
The warship shook violently, and the surrounding band of light vanished instantly.
They returned to normal space.
Lu Sheng walked to the porthole and looked out.
He was stunned.
The scene outside was exactly the same as described in Luo Tianfei's diary, or even more exaggerated.
In the pitch-black space, there were no stars. Only debris.
The wreckage of warships was everywhere.
The smallest of the wrecked ships was larger than the Earth's moon. The largest ones were practically continents lying across space.
The hulls of these warships were covered with strange runes, and although they were dilapidated, some of the runes were still flashing faintly.
"Is this the outer perimeter of the Old God Abyss?" Lu Sheng's eyes lit up as he looked at the pile of scrap metal outside.
He could clearly sense an extremely ancient and heavy aura permeating this space. Even through the armor of the warship, he could feel the oppressive feeling that made it hard to breathe.
This is the lingering scent of higher-level laws.
"Number 10, can the ship still sail?" Lu Sheng asked without turning his head.
"Reporting to Master. The spatial laws ahead are extremely chaotic. If we forcibly start the conventional engine, there is an 80% chance that it will explode."
"Then stay here and don't move." Lu Sheng twisted his neck, and his bones made a cracking sound.
"You few stay on the ship and guard it. No one is allowed to leave without my order."
"Yes, ma'am."
Lu Sheng walked to the cabin door and kicked it open.
He flew straight out.
There is no sound and no resistance in a vacuum.
Lu Sheng's twelve black and gold dragon wings suddenly unfolded, and with a gentle flap, he became like a black meteor, plunging directly into the warship graveyard.
The further in you fly, the denser the debris becomes.
Lu Sheng stopped in front of a huge warship wreckage.
The warship was cleaved in two by something. The cut was as smooth as a mirror.
Even more outrageous, a sword was stuck in the middle of the cut.
A giant sword longer than the Earth.
The sword was dark gray and covered with cracks, but it still exuded a chilling sharpness.
Lu Sheng moved a little closer.
The Dragon Eyes automatically activated.
[Ancient Divine Weapon - Sword of Annihilation (Destroyed)]
[Grade: Beyond the current assessment range]
[Note: The sword retains spatial cutting laws at the Spirit Immortal realm level. Although damaged, touching it is extremely dangerous.]
"A weapon from the Spirit Immortal Realm?" Lu Sheng looked at the giant sword and rubbed his hands together.
He stretched out his right hand and slowly moved closer.
The fingertips just touched the blade.
hum!
An extremely violent cutting force rushed from his fingers directly into his arm.
Lu Sheng felt as if his entire right arm had been scraped by tens of thousands of knives at the same time, the pain was excruciating.
He quickly pulled his hand back.
Looking down, he saw that a large piece of the black and gold dragon scales on his palm had been cut off, revealing the golden flesh underneath.
"That's powerful!" Lu Sheng didn't feel any pain; instead, he laughed.
A broken sword that's been dead for countless millennia can still have such a temper. If you ate it, it would definitely be incredibly nourishing.
But he didn't rush to eat it. The laws within this sword were too violent; if he ate it now, it might damage the seed of the small world. He needed to find something easily digestible to fill his stomach first.
Lu Sheng bypassed the giant sword and continued flying deeper into the area.
It flew for several hundred kilometers.
He saw a corpse.
This was the first real corpse he had seen here.
It was a humanoid monster. It was tens of thousands of feet tall and wore a set of heavy golden armor. The armor was tattered and torn, revealing the withered black skin underneath.
It floated silently among several meteorites, with a large hole in its chest that went straight through its back.
Although it was completely dead, the oppressive aura emanating from it slowed down the rotation of the Spirit Venerable Nebula within Lu Sheng's body.
Lu Shengfei flew up to it.
[Remains of an ancient divine general (who has fallen)]
[Previous Realm Level: Mid-stage Spirit Immortal Realm]
[Residual Origin: Extremely rare, but of extremely high quality]
[Note: Most of the original essence within this remains has been lost. However, fragments of laws at the Spirit Immortal realm level are still sealed within the bones. Absorbing them can deepen one's understanding of the laws.]
"Fragments of laws?" Lu Sheng's eyes widened in disbelief.
This is exactly what he lacks right now.
He's consumed enough energy; what he lacks is an understanding of higher-level laws. Once he grasps that, the seed of the small world can sprout.
"I'll start with you as an appetizer."
Lu Shengfei flew to the top of the golden-armored corpse's head and placed his feet on its skull.
He crouched down and plunged his hands directly into the corpse's shriveled scalp.
"Heaven-Devouring Furnace, get to work!"
A ghostly, deathly gray furnace appeared behind him.
A terrifying gravitational pull traveled along his hands and penetrated directly into the bones of the corpse.
Those fragments of laws, sealed away for countless years, were forcibly pulled out by gravity.
A wisp of golden light pierced through Lu Sheng's arm and into his body.
Lu Sheng was startled.
This feeling is completely different from when I used to consume energy.
I used to eat energy drinks because I felt my stomach was full and I was full of energy.
But now, these fragments of the laws have entered his body and rushed directly into his brain.
He felt as if his brain had been smashed open by a sledgehammer.
The four elements of wind, thunder, water, and fire began to react violently under the stimulation of these fragments.
Lu Sheng closed his eyes and gritted his teeth.
He could feel that his understanding of these four laws was deepening at an alarming rate.
"This thing... isn't for filling your stomach. It's for enlightening your mind."
Lu Sheng grinned and smiled.
He knew he had come to the right place. This ruin was full of such enlightening treasures.
He will eat his way through until he has fed the seed of that little world to its fill.
