My baby is gone again

Chapter 153 Gao Tianyuan, Capital of Night

As soon as Lu Xuan finished speaking, Cheng Lingzhu walked over with his sword in hand.

Killing Aragami didn't waste much of her strength.

Lin Hong flicked the sleeve of his robe, and a half-foot-long small flying sword slid out, turning into a stream of light, nailing Cheng Lingzhu's eyebrows.

With a sound of "dang", the body protection spirit gang emerged, and a colorless and transparent spirit gang formed.

As if touching an invisible force field, the flying sword deflected and slid to the side.

Cheng Lingzhu raised his arm, and a light-colored cyclone formed on his fingertips. The cyclone burst out and pierced the eyebrows of Lin Hong and Lin Yan.

The bodies of the two fell downward, and a little spiritual fire emerged, burning them to ashes.

With a thought in Lu Xuan's mind, two small black squares flew into his hand.

This is the chip in the brains of Lin Hong and Lin Yan, which was ingested by him.

………………

"The disciples of the big families outside follow the family tradition, come to a small place to hunt and kill the Rage God, in order to complete their coming-of-age ceremony..."

There is a chip-reading device on the garbage truck, and the memories of the two are recalled and played.

According to common sense, the children of this kind of family have a firewall in their minds.

But now the door in the chip is wide open, without any precautions... Lu Xuan guessed that it should have something to do with the Ghost Mother of Myriad Tribulations.

The two have been "transformed" into Yin spirits, and have become one of the billions of clones of the Yin spirit and ghost mother of the myriad kalpas, and the firewall has become an obstacle instead.

"It's time to leave."

Lu Xuan said, "This place is still too remote."

Cheng Lingzhu nodded, she knew the geography of this world from Lin Honglinyan's memory:
"To the south of the Sona Plain, across the strait, there is a big city called [Gaotianyuan] within two thousand miles, we can go and see it."

"can."

Lu Xuan agreed.

………………

Leaving the garbage truck on the wilderness, Lu Xuan took the treasure chariot and flew towards the predetermined direction.

The pollution in this world is very serious, the sea water is turbid and black, and there are all kinds of plastic garbage floating in it, and the fish living in it are also deformed.

This is not surprising.

Star Naga is the home star of human beings, but its resources have long been exhausted. In today's technologically advanced era, human beings have already sailed to the starry sky and established colonies one after another.

All this is due to the development of prosthetic technology.

The Qi Refining Realm has agile fists and feet, the Foundation Establishment Realm surpasses ordinary people, and the Golden Core Realm flies to the sky and escapes the ground...

If you can reach the realm of refining the void, you can become a digital life, entrust the body of a starry sky battleship, and travel the star sea.

Of course, most of the virtual masters will choose to load their brains in the battleship, and will not choose to upload their consciousness until the last moment of their lives.

After all, there are still some obsessions from the old era.

Anyway, having a brain does not affect the weight of the battleship. The prosthetic body does not require much oxygen, and only needs a small amount of sugar to maintain life for a long time.

Practitioners do not have only one prosthetic body, they have a lot of wealth in their hands, and they will not owe themselves in terms of enjoyment.

For example, a specialized digestive prosthesis with several stomach pouches.

It can ensure that practitioners will not eat too much when enjoying delicious food, and the body will get tired of food.

While ordinary people at the bottom are still beating their lives to death for a bag of grain, practitioners are enjoying their right to "waste" to the fullest.

Another example is the double repair prosthetic body, which is a flesh and blood body cultivated by genetic means, not cold metal, but it still carries a special device on it, which can adjust the degree of stimulation.

For noble practitioners, there are more expensive prosthetic bodies than ordinary people's clothes.

As for the group of people left on the ground...

Lu Xuan looked out through the treasure chariot.

A giant city was suspended above the sky, surrounded by an energy shield formed by a polymer filter membrane, which filtered the air cleanly.

The floating island is full of greenery, garden fountains, grasses and trees are all available.

Compared with the pale outside world, it is like a fairyland on earth, like a paradise.

Below the floating island is the night city called "High Tianyuan", which is also the largest city here.

Takamahara is not only the name of Night City, but also the name of a faction. Its rulers are the three families of cultivators Tokugawa, Oda and Toyotomi.

………………

Lu Xuan and Cheng Lingzhu entered the city at night.

It is different from Huangyan Town and the "entering the city" spoken by the mayor of Huangyan Town.

The "entering the city" mentioned by the mayor of Huangyan Town refers to entering the nearby towns.

The economic level of that kind of "city" is higher than that of Huangyan Town, and the environment is better, but it still does not break away from the category of ordinary cities.

And Gao Tianyuan is a real "cyber city".

To enter it, you need a clean identity.

Surveillance is everywhere in the city, and even the gates of the city have special testing equipment, and you can only enter if you pass the verification with a chip in your hand.

Before entering the city, Lu Xuan thought about the chip for a while, and understood its structure and operating principle.

It's not that hard either.

Lu Xuan tried to build a framework in Soul Sea, and then connected to Gao Tianyuan's network.

Countless messy, important or rubbish streams of information poured in, but disappeared like rushing into a bottomless pit, and were quickly sorted out by Lu Xuan.

Useful information is archived and stored, and useless information is cleaned and deleted...

After a breath, he opened his eyes.

Lu Xuan pursued the way of nature, and what he paid attention to was the connection of all dharmas.

When the road of practice comes to an end, you will find that many things can be integrated.

For example, Lu Xuan is using a human brain to surf the Internet, he thought it was quite reasonable.

"A little modification will do."

Lu Xuan held a chip, which belonged to Lin Yan.

The mana flowed, and the chip crackled, as if turning into countless fine particles, which quickly deformed.

In the end it turned into a small hairpin.

Lu Xuan turned around and put the hairpin on Cheng Lingzhu's head.

The identities of Lin Hong and Lin Yan can still be used.

When these two people became believers of the Yin Ghost Mother of Myriad Tribulations, their personal "existence" was disconnected from the family network.

Their consciousness was duplicated and became a part of the Ghost Mother of Myriad Tribulations.

If the ghost mother is willing, she can directly extract the memories of the two and carry out "resurrection".

In this era, there are no paper money anymore, backward places use real objects, such as food and weapons to trade, and metropolises like Gao Tianyuan uniformly use electronic currency, so it is necessary to refine a chip.

There is a lot of savings in Lin Yan and Lin Hong's accounts, if it is useful, it can save a lot of trouble.

………………

The checkpoint of entering the city.

"Didi... Zi... Identity verification passed, identity verification passed."

The 3D avatars of Lin Hong and Lin Yan emerged, and Lu Xuan and Cheng Lingzhu had already used illusion in advance, even under the scanning of the robot, they were also flawless.

The so-called concealment of the secrets of the heavens focuses on a 360-degree without dead angle, which can deceive even the highest heaven, let alone a machine.

Don't say it's just a scan, even a genetic test won't cause any problems.

The two walked in with a big swagger.

As soon as it entered Night City, Cheng Lingzhu let out a "huh".

Without it, the city would be too "gorgeous".

Various advertisements are projected on the colorful light curtains, and light pollution is everywhere, dazzling and noisy.

There are even those selling along the street——

"Tiannongzong Energy Supplement! Tiannongzong Energy Supplement! The expiration date is less than a month! They are all authentic and new!"

"The True Explanation of the Crane's Xingyi! The True Explanation of the Linghe's Xingyi! The official trial version, unlock the seven-day permission!"

"Protein block gourmet, century-old store, large quantity and cheap!"

"Do you want a disc? Do you want a disc... The master tape from W1 company is out, the absolute collector's edition..."

Except for the vendor selling discs, everyone else has paid taxes and is doing business in Night City with integrity.

Similarly, there are sellers and there are buyers——

"Can you get all the energy supplements of Tiannongzong? The boss has a lot of ways... come five."

"Are you the genuine Linghe Xingyi? Why is it so much cheaper than online?"

"How can there be a century-old store in Night City? Didn't it just suffer from a nuclear bomb more than 70 years ago?"

"Here's a bowl of fried noodles with energy cubes...don't put chicken essence in the fried noodles, it's easy to get mushy."

Bustling, very lively.

On Cheng Lingzhu's right hand side, there is a shop filled with pink light, exuding an unscrupulous atmosphere.

Under the neon lights, there is a three-dimensional billboard of scantily clad girls, and a synthesized electronic sound sounds from behind the buttocks:

"Nadeshiko Shuangxiu Experience Store, giving you the most authentic Taoist experience..."

"Don't look!"

Cheng Lingzhu jumped onto Lu Xuan's back and covered his eyes.

Lu Xuanshen supported her to prevent her from slipping down.

The girl's legs were slender, round and powerful, and they were firmly clamped around his waist.

"Hey, are you underestimating your husband's determination?"

Lu Xuan felt the pressure behind him:
"Don't talk about being a puppet of double cultivators. Back then, the saintess of the Spiritual Charm Sect invited me, and I even..."

"Ok?"

Cheng Lingzhu's element awareness:
"The Holy Maiden of the Spirit Charm Sect?"

Lu Xuan shut up in time.

Cheng Lingzhu's beautiful eyes darkened slightly.

"...Did you hear me wrong?"

Lu Xuan's expression did not change. "What saint? Why don't I know?"

Cheng Lingzhu snorted and shook his body:
"Go on."

"Ok."

Lu Xuan sighed:

"Well, you also know that the road to practice is long, and when a person is outside alone, he will always encounter various temptations."

Cheng Lingzhu gave a "hmm".

"I don't think I'm a very restrained person, but when faced with certain temptations, I can still persevere."

Lu Xuan paused:
"For example, in a certain year, the Lingmei Sect held a questioning meeting...well, a serious kind of questioning.

The No.1 prize is [Warm Jade Sword Sheath]. I just wanted to change the matching equipment for the saber in my hand.

In the end, after taking the leader, I realized that they were referring to the saintess of their sect, and co-authoring is not serious at all..."

Knowing the truth, Lu Xuan fled in despair.

Cheng Lingzhu wrapped his arms around his neck:
"You released the pigeons of the saintess, they don't blame you?"

"Of course not."

Lu Xuan was very proud:
"My pseudonym."

When he signed up for the competition, he used Ji Lingchen's name.

The main reason is to anticipate the risks and take precautions in advance.

Later, Ji Lingchen had a little cultivation, and when he was traveling in the Cangyuan Realm, he occasionally heard the title of "Beasts are not as good as Ji Lingchen".

He felt that he was offended, and when Linghe passed the letter to communicate, he even mentioned this matter to his good friend, real Lu Xuanlu.

The well-informed real Lu said that this is normal.

It must be the collision of the same name and surname, not unusual, not unusual.

Lao Ji is still in the dark.

"You have a bad reputation outside."

Cheng Lingzhu covered her mouth and smiled lightly.

Of course, she trusted Lu Xuan quite a lot. If she really suspected that Lu Xuan had a concubine outside, Cheng Lingzhu would not dare to ask.

"By the way, what do you think of these stores?"

Lu Xuan pointed to the Shuangxiu experience shop on the side.

Cheng Lingzhu thought for a while:

"It's too revealing... very direct, a little... too explicit."

Even if there are many Shuangxiu sects and brothels in the Cangyuan Realm, they will not be as straightforward as the Goulan here... here.

Lu Xuan pointed to the distance:
"Look over there again."

In the dark and narrow alley, someone was robbing. The person who was robbed looked poor, and the assailant was also dressed in rags.

There is also a woman standing in the alley soliciting customers, holding her child in her arms, and under her bare skin are tattered electronic components.

"This place should be... a very advanced civilization."

Cheng Lingzhu thought of Yuan Xing who had gone before.

Compared with this world, Yuanxing's technological level is very backward.

They didn't even make it off their own planet.

But even if there are many problems in Yuanxing's civilization, the life of the local people is much better than here.

Obviously so advanced, but so poor.

"Canglin knows honor and disgrace."

Looking at the exposed billboard models and the woman who brought her child out to sell her body for an energy bar, Lu Xuan sighed:

"Capital and power are controlled by a few people. Zongmen... Well, once the giant companies are in control, ordinary people will be reduced to tools and property, and the world will become like this."

Cheng Lingzhu thought for a while:

"Actually, the Cangyuan Realm is also controlled by the Dazong sect to control the cultivation resources? Why didn't it become like this?"

Due to the influence of heaven and earth aura.

A mortal without any cultivation in Cangyuan Realm can easily live to be more than 100 years old without any disease or disaster.

Therefore, the population of Cangyuan Realm is large, but there will be no such thing as a population explosion that exceeds the capacity of the world.

As a big world, the Cangyuan world is also "growing" every day, expanding and expanding faster than the population growth.

This is not counting the countless captured small worlds integrated into the Cangyuan Realm and transformed into new world puzzles.

"Two o'clock."

Lu Xuan thought for a while:
"One is that the Cangyuan Realm is different from this world, and true practitioners don't need mortals.

This world regards ordinary people as property resources, which can be squeezed to provide value, but for most sects and monks in Cangyuan Realm, ordinary people are useless. "

Cultivation has entered the golden core stage, and it can survive only by the aura of heaven and earth. It does not need to drink water, eat and breathe, commonly known as meal gas.

Many practitioners still eat, just because of habit and delicious food, and they don't care about these things when they are busy.

High-level practitioners, especially after entering the Void Refining Realm, don't even need the aura of heaven and earth.

Foreign objects have no effect on their practice, unless it is something like the bones of real immortals, blood and real dragons that they will never see in their lifetime.

Breakthrough depends entirely on enlightenment, and one must seek answers within.

Focus on an idealism, that's what practice is like.

Even a few emperors of the Immortal Dynasty gather the world's beliefs in order to make great aspirations and establish the way. The power of faith will bless the country's destiny and feed back to the people, and no one will choose to absorb the power of faith.
