An origin ability user's cultivation technique couldn't be casually practiced, especially at the initial stage. A simple example would be the thermal and ice system. In terms of their effects, there was a conflict between them. If one's temperature was too high, it could melt substances. Due to the thermal energy, it would produce many effects. The other's temperature was too low, it could freeze substances. In fact, the effect was very simple.
By the same logic, if an origin ability user cultivated both thermal and ice systems, there would naturally be conflicts in their bodies, manifesting in various symptoms. In the end, it would seriously affect the growth of an origin ability user. It wasn't that one couldn't cultivate in this way, but that ordinary people couldn't mess around like this.
The Holy Grail Federation and the Norse Empire both had unique research on cultivation techniques. Some high-level secret manuals could allow one to cultivate in such a nature-defying way, but Jun Ling had cultivated in so many different systems. It would be strange if she didn't suffer from qi deviation.
Xiao Ai said, "Not necessarily. She's still different from ordinary origin ability users. After all, they fight all year round, and their physical fitness is different from ordinary people. At least their bodies are strong enough, and they might be able to endure the side effects. Look, she doesn't seem to have any abnormalities on her body. Of course, this can be attributed to the effects of Divine Light Technology."
Ding Meng nodded. Next, he would have to face the copy of himself produced by the Divine Light crystal.
With his experience on the Thorn Planet, Ding Meng was now very confident that he could pass this test. This was because he had too many useful things on him. Putting aside the various martial arts techniques, the Prototype, Catoptric Deflection, and the firearms in his satchel could all be used to test the copy. Moreover, his origin ability was now deep, and he could slowly improve his combat ability.
Back then, the Divine Light warehouse had produced a total of 14 copies of himself with 16 pupils. Now, there were 20 pupils. His initial estimate was that he would need to replicate 16 to 20 copies.
With his strength, he could divide it into at least 50 levels, so it wouldn't be difficult to pass. On the other hand, Jun Ling's strength was relatively weak, so it would be difficult for him to pass.
However, reality mercilessly taught Ding Meng a lesson. After the two of them had walked a certain distance, the air indeed began to twist and ripple like water. A powerful wave was generated, and the Mimic quickly walked out.
In the first three waves of imitations, Ding Meng had used the simple methods of an origin ability user to kill them. He had only slightly increased his origin ability. However, Jun Ling didn't use her origin ability at all. She had used the strength of an ordinary person and used her dagger to change her moves to kill the imitations. Moreover, she had killed them in one move.
Xiao Ai said helplessly, "Worry about yourself. Look at how skilled his martial arts are."
No matter how unwilling Ding Meng was, he had to admit that Jun Ling's martial arts were heterogeneous, practical, and effective. After all, she had experienced far more life and death battles than he had.
The classic example was that the Mimic also had a similar dagger. The Mimic would raise his hand and slash forward. The Mimic's attack was swift and fierce. Jun Ling's elbow seemed to strike the Mimic's wrist, and the Mimic's movements were clearly sluggish. Then, Jun Ling's elbow and wrist seemed to quickly twist a few times, and the Mimic's dagger fell from his hand. Jun Ling then turned her hand, and the dagger sank into the Mimic's heart. The Mimic turned into a wave and disappeared into the air.
The next Mimic would definitely use this move as well. However, when the attack came, Jun Ling didn't use her "Muscle Splitting Bone Dislocating Hand". Instead, she leaned forward and suddenly stood up and used her shoulder to flick the Mimic's dagger away. At the same time, the dagger stabbed into the Mimic's lower abdomen. The Mimic continued to disappear …
In short, Jun Ling didn't use her origin ability, because if she did, the next Mimic would definitely become stronger. The more she fought, the more difficult it would be. Instead, she used her ingenuity and endless techniques to torture and kill the Mimics. Jun Ling only used 30 minutes to kill sixteen Mimics. She even turned her head back to observe Ding Meng's battle with great interest.
Ding Meng's method of relying on increasing his origin ability to fight was clearly inefficient. It took him more than an hour to catch up to Jun Ling's pace.
"How is it?
Do you want to take a break?
I'm guessing that we should be out soon, "Ding Meng asked.
Jun Ling shook her head. "I'm not tired at all."
"Alright!" Ding Meng said helplessly. "Let's continue!"
The air continued to transform into virtual portals. It was still the boundless Shenguang Plaza, but this time, all the crystals in the plaza were suffused with a faint light. Three thousand meters in front of Ding Meng and Jun Ling, a solemn three-story tall building appeared. This was the first time Ding Meng had seen it in Shenguang Biotechnology.
Before he had time to examine it carefully, Jun Ling exclaimed, "The legendary Temple of Gods!"
Ding Meng was surprised. "You know about this building?"
Jun Ling nodded excitedly. "My ancestors told me that our clan is called the Mo Ye clan. Our ancestor was called Mo Ye, so that's how we got our name. Elder Mo Ye was the strongest warrior in our clan. Later generations built this temple to commemorate him. Based on the descriptions of my ancestors, I can be 100% sure that this is the legendary temple."
Ding Meng also carefully scanned this so-called temple. It wasn't big, covering an area of at most two thousand square meters. The architectural style should be considered something from the ancient human era. It felt like a church.
However, the entire temple exuded a layer of pure white luster, as if it was draped with a holy veil. From afar, the temple gave off a sacred and dignified feeling that it couldn't be violated.
However, the strange thing was that Ding Meng's telekinetic vision couldn't penetrate the temple. He couldn't see what was going on inside.
He had encountered similar situations before. The first time was in the Norse Empire, when he met the military colonel Feng Rufei. Feng Rufei's strength was so strong that he directly suppressed Ding Meng with his energy. The second time was when he discovered the inverse crystal on Cypress Planet. The inverse crystal had the effect of sucking, and it directly swallowed telekinetic waves.
However, this time, the entire temple seemed to be shrouded in a very mysterious force. Any signals from the outside world couldn't enter the main door. Telekinetic particles were like small tadpoles. When they reached the main door, they hit an invisible barrier. Whether you used force or not, you couldn't move forward.
Xiao Ai said, "According to my analysis, this is some kind of very high-end shielding technology. Even if this temple was moved to Health Town, the starship's most advanced quantum radar wouldn't be able to detect it. It wouldn't even be able to detect its blind spots."
Ding Meng was not surprised by this. Shenguang Biotechnology had many wonders. His sense of surprise had long been exhausted on the Expedition.
As they approached the temple, Ding Meng found some strange symbols engraved on the walls of the main door. They were probably some kind of writing.
Jun Ling nodded. "These are the hieroglyphs of our race. However, we rarely use them in recent decades."
"What does it say?" Ding Meng asked.
Jun Ling said word by word, "Moye Temple. Those who are not chosen are not allowed to enter."
Ding Meng frowned. "What does' chosen 'mean?"
Jun Ling sighed. "It's very likely to be my amulet. It's a pity that it's gone now. I don't know if it was used by the teleportation array or if it's in the hands of the mother."
As soon as he finished speaking, a voice sounded in the air. "That's not an amulet. It's a protection command. The protection command has been lifted. The strange array has been reactivated. The annihilation is now in countdown."
"Who's there?" Jun Ling jumped in fright. He jumped back and pulled out his dagger at the same time.
To tell the truth, Ding Meng was also quite frightened. The voice was neither male nor female. It didn't sound like an electronic synthesizer, nor did it sound like a monster's voice. It sounded like a broken loudspeaker. It was especially harsh and unpleasant to the ears.
The strangest thing was that you could clearly hear the voice, but you couldn't find the source of the voice. It seemed to be everywhere, but it also seemed to be coming from your brain. This was the first time Ding Meng had encountered such a strange situation.
"Who are you?"
Ding Meng quickly spread out his psychokinesis vision. There wasn't even the slightest bit of origin energy within a few kilometers of him. It was frighteningly empty.
The voice suddenly became flabbergasted. "Eh?
You're also a fluxer. For a fluxer to appear in the human world, you're really lucky. "
Jun Ling raised his dagger and said coldly, "Who are you?"
The voice became gentle. "Mo Ye clansmen, put down your weapons. I'm not your enemy. I welcome you here."
Jun Ling said, "You keep saying that you're not our enemy. Then why are you hiding so sneakily?"
The voice hesitated. "Are you sure you want to see me?"
Jun Ling replied coldly, "If you have the ability, then come out!"
The air in front of him began to distort again. This time, the ripples had a layer of dark blue luster. It was like a whirlpool in the ocean. A blue star suddenly drilled out of the whirlpool. It was the size of a thumb and flashed like a bright blue star.
Jun Ling said angrily, "What tricks are you playing?
Where are you? "
The voice said, "I've already appeared. Don't tell me you can't see me?"
Jun Ling was immediately startled. "You … Could it be that this star is you?"
The bright star's tone was somewhat dissatisfied. "What's a star?
I'm a singularity. "
"What's a singularity?" Ding Meng was also very curious.
The singularity sighed. "With the level of human knowledge, it's very difficult for me to explain it to you. I'll describe it to you like this. Don't you humans have something called a main control console on your battleships?"
Ding Meng immediately reacted. "You're an artificial intelligence system?"
The singularity said, "If you remove the words' artificial intelligence ', the system can be explained with some difficulty."
Ding Meng probed, "Are you the system of this energy warehouse?"
The singularity said, "You can understand it that way, but I think the term 'manager' is more appropriate."
This time, even Xiao Ai was astonished. If the star in front of them really had the powerful functions of the starship's main control console, then Shenguang Biotechnology was really too advanced. Such a small star was actually a management system.
Ding Meng became even more curious. "Those humanoid energy bodies that looked exactly like us, were they created by you?"
