The team found an empty space. Zhang Qin and the others sat on the ground, frowning. There was only one day left until the end of the trial. They were probably going to rank last in this assessment.
Luo Kai did not have this concern at all. He walked to Zhang Qin and asked, "Sister Zhang, can you tell me what the Atlantis Divine Realm is?"
Zhang Qin looked at him and said, "It is a lost civilization. It is also a branch of the human race. They called themselves the Atlantis Divine Race and tried to challenge the authority of the Celestial Realm. Then, they were destroyed."
She obviously did not want to talk about it, so she did not say anything. Xuan Xuan knew a little about the Atlantis Divine Realm. She quietly pulled Luo Kai's sleeve and pulled him to the side. She whispered, "I read a book that said that the Atlantis Divine Race was good at a consciousness transfer method. They could inject a person's consciousness into a metal and obtain a long lifespan and connection with the metal. Any organic matter would collapse one day, but inorganic matter could maintain its elemental nature for a long time. They could even create a Celestial God. This method went against the laws of nature and mixed up the relationship between the soul and the body. They tried to escape the Heavenly Tribulation and reincarnation. Therefore, the Atlantis Divine Race was expelled and sealed by the Celestial Realm."
Luo Kai thought for a while and asked, "What is the Celestial Realm?"
Xuan Xuan frowned and said, "My aunt said that it is a four-dimensional universe. She said that I do not know what it is."
As the two of them were talking, Zhang Qin's expression suddenly changed. She took out an astrolabe from her clothes in surprise. It was the astrolabe that Luo Kai had picked up. At this moment, the astrolabe seemed to be driven by some unknown energy. It flashed with a fluorescent light, and the map lines on it started to move frequently.
Zhang Qin stared at it for a while and suddenly thought of something. She muttered, "Could it be that the Demon Sealing Star Jade still has people from Atlantis?"
Although her voice was soft, the others heard it. Xuan Xuan was puzzled. "Didn't they say that this race was destroyed tens of thousands of years ago?
What does the Demon Sealing Star Jade have to do with Atlantis? "
Zhang Qin pondered for a moment, stood up, and said solemnly, "The Demon-Sealing Star Jade is the Atlantis Divine Realm. After its destruction, it formed a distorted space system, and it constantly spawned monsters. This astrolabe is the map of the Divine Realm. It is said that the Atlantis Divine Race has deduced the Way of Mathematics to the extreme. There is still one day left. I am going to explore the center of the map. Who is willing to come with me?"
The others were shocked, and then they became excited. Atlantis was the legendary Divine Domain, and it was an existence on the same level as the legendary Celestial Realm of the four-dimensional universe. Anything left behind was a miracle.
Li Fei said excitedly, "Sister Zhang, shouldn't we report this to the base? Discovering an Ancient Miracle is also a great achievement."
"Not now. I have to go and see if it's really a remnant of Atlantis."
"Will it be dangerous?"
Zhang Qin shook her head and said, "No, there are quantum detection devices everywhere in the Demon-Sealing Star Jade. Any unknown things will be detected immediately. This place is completely under the control of the dojo. As long as we don't go to the center of the star jade, there won't be too much danger."
After a simple packing, the group set off again. This time, they were not as depressed as before, and they were all in high spirits.
Zhang Qin stared at the astrolabe and led the way from time to time. Xuan Xuan was in the middle, but she looked a little worried. She grew up in a fixed environment and was used to following the rules. Now that she was going to look for the legendary Divine Civilization without informing the dojo, she would definitely be scolded.
Gradually, they walked into the depths of the forest. Strange trees were all around them, and the branches of the trees were intertwined. The branches stretched out and covered the sun completely, and the fog lingered below.
A huge strange tree suddenly appeared in front of them. Its bark was dark green, and the thick and strangely shaped branches coiled around the tree like dragons. Just as they approached the tree, the astrolabe in Zhang Qin's hand suddenly emitted a light that enveloped them. Everyone felt their vision blur, and the environment in front of them changed. A village surrounded by a wooden fence appeared in their field of vision, and they could vaguely see the shadows of people in the village.
Everyone was shocked. There were actually people living in the Demon-Sealing Star Jade!
Luo Kai also felt a little incredulous. He could feel the influence of the demonic aura here on the living beings. The demonic aura was also a kind of chaotic energy. Like the evil energy, it was chaotic and disorderly. If one came into contact with it for a long time, it would definitely affect one's mind. Even if those with a strong will kept their mind, their personality would become manic and bloodthirsty, and it would be difficult to control.
The people in the village also noticed the outsiders, and they all aimed at the group with their bows and arrows.
Zhang Qin took a deep breath, walked forward, and asked loudly, "Are you the descendants of the Atlantean Gods?"
A tall man with eight arms walked out of the village. He glanced at everyone coldly and said, "No, outsiders are not welcome here. Please return the astrolabe to us."
Zhang Qin looked him up and down. The Milky Way Empire had highly advanced technology, and congenital abnormalities like this had long been completely avoided. There was only one possibility for such a mutation, and that was that the genes had an atavistic reaction, or rather, a demonic reaction. Like the "witchcraft" of the soul, the demonic body also represented atavism.
She respectfully bowed and said, "We are cultivators from the Nine Extremes Sect. We just want to ask for your advice on the way of mathematics. We will leave early tomorrow morning."
The tall man obviously knew about the Nine Extremes Sect. His expression softened slightly, and he also bowed with one hand on his chest and said, "We are from the Alldevil Clan. We have been blessed by the Nine Extremes Sect all these years. Please come in."
The village did not seem to be large, but it was a different world inside. There were several rows of simple houses built with trees, and there was a large open space behind the village. It was filled with various grains and vegetables, and there were cows and sheep running through it from time to time.
The big man led the group to a large wooden house. They sat down and said, "My name is Cheng Zhi. My ancestors were divine servants of Atlantis. In order to escape the pursuit of the empire, we fled in the universe. Fortunately, with the help of the Archbishop of the Taixuan Dojo, we came to this fallen land to seek the glory of our ancestors. Young people in the village often leave the village, and they may have lost their astrolabes outside."
It turned out that the Archbishop had helped them. Zhang Qin and the others breathed a sigh of relief. The Nine Extremes Sect originally had eight Archbishops and one Sect Master, and they were collectively known as the Nine Extremes. The Nine Extremes were located in different parts of the universe, and the one in charge of the Milky Way was the Archbishop of the Taixuan Dojo. His status was extremely respected, and he was an existence on par with the gods. Even if he blatantly protected the Atlanteans, no one dared to say anything.
Luo Kai sat in front of the window, but his expression became serious. He looked at the strange tree not far from the village, and he seemed to be deep in thought.
It was close to noon, and smoke began to rise everywhere in the village. From time to time, the crying of children and the barking of dogs could be heard. The terrifying demonic dogs were the pets of the people in the village. Even the demonic monkeys were docile, and they did not look as ferocious as they did on the outside. If it were not for the dense trees all around, this place would be like a paradise. Unfortunately, there was no paradise in this world.
