Rebirth of the Stars

After waking up, Ning Yuan adjusted his appearance, and then stepped out of the safe zone alone with a certain guess.

After about ten minutes, he staggered back from the darkness.

Watching the black air emanating from his body being absorbed by the suspended lamp, a look of "it is true" appeared on Ning Yuan's face. Then there was a touch of awe.

Ning Yuan looked at the floating lamp and was silent for a few minutes, then looked at the faint white light spot in the darkness for a while. That is his other "unknown lamp" as a landmark.

"Let me use time to verify the second guess."

Thinking this way, Ning Yuan retracted his gaze and sat down cross-legged in the center of the "safe zone" again.

Check the character panel and player log before picking up the "First Explanation of Learning (Complete Edition. Unsurprisingly, the pure knowledge point skill "Learning" has appeared in the skill column, and it has reached level 2.

"Learning: Level: Level 2. Based on the knowledge gathered by the player's experience, experience and reading. Current effect: Wisdom plus 2, Knowledge plus 1. (Knowledge: non-display attribute)."

The "learning" skill can be said to be a skill that all players will master, a basic skill that is useless for players of the force system, and is extremely important for players of the mana system.

As pure knowledge skills, the acquisition and upgrading of "learning" skills can be said to be extremely simple. Even if the force player does not deliberately, as long as the skills acquired through book knowledge points will automatically trigger the learning of "learning" skills. "Learning" skills can be said to be included for players of the military department, and they are also prerequisite skills for certain advanced skills.

It's just that the additional attributes of "learning" skills are often "wisdom" and "political" attributes that are partial to the mana system. Therefore, the "learning" skill is of no use to players who dominate the military department. At least now almost all of the force players in the Nieno continent think so.

For mana players, the importance of "learning" skills is self-evident. Although the attribute of "learning" skill blessing is very low, and it takes a long time to read. However, in the spirit of "no matter how small a mosquito is, it is meat", almost all mana players will choose to upgrade their "learning" skills to a certain level. But if you want to pay more attention to it, it is not always true. It can only be said that the mentality is actually similar to that of the martial arts players, which can be regarded as an incidental to the learning of book knowledge points.

Of course, for some life professional players and players like Ning Yuan who like to read and have certain goals, the "learning" skill is a basic skill that must be upgraded to level 10. Even this will cost them a lot of time.

As far as Ning Yuan is concerned, raising the "learning" to level 5 is one of the prerequisites for reading and learning the "Nine Lianqi Zhuanxin Sutra (fragment And upgrading the "learning" skill to level 10 is a necessary condition for future status advancement, and it can also be used as one of the foundations of his own professional positioning.

And he himself does have a morbid hunger for knowledge. This can be said to be a manifestation of his curiosity. Regardless of the real world of the stars, the virtual world, or other virtual world game worlds in the virtual world, Ning Yuan collected all the books, knowledge, consultation and other intelligence information that he could access as much as possible.

Opening the "First Explanation of Learning (Complete Edition, Ning Yuan was once again immersed in the ocean of knowledge.

In the following time, apart from occasionally going to the dark to confirm something, observing the refinement of the "unknown lamp" and taking bigudan to maintain the bigu state when hunger comes, he has been reading "The First Explanation of Learning".

Except for the first few days, Ning Yuan would always close his eyes and think for about half an hour after reading "First Explanation of Learning (Complete Edition. Then I started reading again. Even after the "Learning" skill was upgraded to level 5 and fulfilled the reading and learning requirements of "Nine Lian Qi Zhuan Xin Sutra (Fragment, Ning Yuan did not choose to learn "Nine Lian Qi Zhuan Xin Sutra (Fragment immediately, but Continue reading, sorting and comprehension of "The First Explanation of Learning".

Ning Yuan’s days in this dark space began to settle down temporarily, and it seemed that he no longer wanted to solve the test of this dark space as soon as possible to gain the inheritance of the "city knot heart", and he didn't care whether he would get away from the outside players on the Nieno continent. gigantic difference.

It was not until more than a month later that Ning Yuan saw the changes that he had been waiting for "maybe", and heard the system prompts that he had been waiting for "maybe" as he wished.

The change comes from the "unknown lamp" that has been in a state of "refining".

One day, when Ning Yuan had just finished reading "The First Explanation of Learning", he discovered that the originally bright "safe area" had dimmed.

I saw that the faint, almost invisible black air that had been flowing into the lamp like a trickle suddenly became turbulent at this moment, and the trickle turned into a black streamer somehow, like a wave of pure black. Into the small "liquor bottle" of the lamp.

It may not be accurate to say "influence". Because Ning Yuan could feel that the black "streamer" was passively absorbed by the "wine bottle". Perhaps it is more appropriate to describe it as "swallowing".

The endless black air was forcibly absorbed by the "unknown lamp" from outside the "safe area". Then it turns into "streamers" and "waves" in the "safe zone" and is swallowed up like a black hole by a small lamp bottle.

The swallowing behavior of the "unknown lamp" lasted for about a quarter of an hour, and then stopped abruptly as if it was full.

At the moment when the lamp's behavior of devouring black gas stopped, the originally bright lamp emitted a dazzling white light.

When the white light was on, Ning Yuan turned and closed his eyes reflexively.

The white light was dazzling and hot, and even if he turned around, Ning Yuan's back felt burning and tingling in an instant.

Fortunately, white light comes and goes fast. In just a few breaths, Ning Yuan no longer had the burning sensation except for the faint tingling sensation.

Opening his eyes, Ning Yuan's vision had visibly dimmed, and the range of the "safe zone" had also shrunk, from the original radius of half a meter to a radius of one foot, just covering the range of a person.

Ning Yuan turned his attention to the "unknown lamp" that had obviously completed some kind of change.

I saw that the "unknown lamp" at this time had completely changed its appearance. The original three-dimensional "wine bottle" is flat, like some kind of armored shoulder guard, the peach-shaped lampshade has completely disappeared, and the tadpole-like air mass wick has slightly changed its shape, just like the "yang fish" in the "yin and yang fish". , The whole body is white, only the center of the round head has a pure black dot, like a "fish eye".

The air mass wick in the form of "Yangyu" quietly hovered three inches above the "shoulder guard", slowly rotating.

When Ning Yuan observed the changed "unknown lamp", the attributes of the lamp that retrieved the skill feedback came into view, and the system prompt sounded in his mind as promised.

"Congratulations to the players for obtaining the'Twin Soul Light (Yang)'."

"Twin Soul Calming Lamp (Yang): An'unknown lamp' that restores its original appearance after refining. Sacrifice. Effect: It can be used to sacrifice and synthesize a certain clan weapon.

Seeing the feedback information under his eyes, Ning Yuan sighed in relief.

"The guess is correct. I have found the key to breaking the game. I can finally determine the nature of this darkness." Ning Yuan laughed and took the changed lamp in his hand, and took the "First Explanation of Learning" on the ground back to Kun Bao, and then turned towards the beginning. Go to the center of coordinates.

"There are mirages in the north, coexisting in the same body, the pearls are divided into yin and yang, day and night forever, everyone will die when entering. Why? Day enters people lazily and die, night enters the gods and madly die. Of course, this is not a mirage, all people take. Mirage beads Foreign treasures, people are greedy. The mind is impure, so entering is dead. Of course, the sky has cause and effect, the earth has a definite number, and the only one who enters the Pearl Realm is the only clan. The day eclipse the moon, is the family that raises the mirage imperial treasure."

This is a passage that Ning Yuan has read in the reality of the stars. This passage comes from an ancient book. This ancient book legend is left over from the ancient Qixiu era, and was restored by modern archaeologists excavating from some ancient ruins. There are many missing content in ancient books, but there are few important documents that record the natural and natural customs of the Qixiu era and the extinction and disappearance of the stars. It is also an important reference for the modern Zhuxing ethnic group to recognize the second generation of Zhuxing, namely the ancient Qixiu civilization.

As for why I think of this passage, I have to thank Ning Yuan for the "First Explanation of Learning (Complete Edition.

Originally, because of cognitive reasons, that is, the inherent impression that the game world in the virtual zone is a completely overhead different world, Ning Yuan did not take into consideration the possible connection between the Nieno continent and the real world of the stars. Until I read this "First Explanation of Learning (Complete Edition, which is known as the Encyclopedia of Nieno continent.

Ning Yuan saw many familiar descriptions in this book, and then naturally remembered something. Although just a few similar descriptions can't explain anything, if the similarities reach dozens or hundreds of points, Ning Yuan has to seriously consider whether there is a certain inevitable connection among them.

In the memory and comparison, Ning Yuan discovered some facts. I also had relatively clear guesses about the doubts in my subconscious.

The first doubt. On what basis and conditions did Master Market Master evolve this world? Ning Yuan found the answer in the comparison between "First Explanation of Learning" and actual memory.

Lord Market Lord is based on the reality of the stars as the evolution of the "Nyeno Continent".

Why is "Nieno Continent" completely different from the current continents of the stars?

This is because although the master of the market is based on the reality of the stars, this "reality of the stars" is not the modern stars, nor the stars of the "Qi Refining Technology Era" in the ancient times, or even the ancient "Cultivation Era". Stars are the stars before the second "Tian Yuan (Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi) Great Change" recorded in the ancient "Qi Xiu Era". That is, the "Nyeno Continent" created by the reality of the stars in the heyday of "Qi Xiu Civilization".

And it's just as a blueprint. Therefore, it is not surprising that "Nieno Land" is recognized as a different world in the eyes of players.

If it weren’t for Ning Yuan’s preference for the history of the stars, he had read almost all the ancient books circulating in the market and in certain private fields, and he saw similar records in this book "The First Explanation of Learning", and remembered that he had read it before. data of. Ning Yuan would never guess that the stars would be the blueprint for the evolution of the "Nieno Continent".

Lord Market Lord is based on the reality of the stars as the evolution of the "Nyeno Continent".

Ning Yuan would never guess that the stars would be the blueprint for the evolution of the "Nieno Continent".

Based on the answer to the first doubt, Ning Yuan also had a relatively reliable answer to his second doubt.

Based on what kind of considerations did Master Market Lord evolve a new race suitable for metamorphosis into reality? If the first guess is true, the answer is actually very simple.

Lord Market Lord did not really evolve a new race, or rather, he did not just evolve a brand new race. Instead, it restores the race that once existed in the world of stars but disappeared in the long river of history due to the "change of Tianyuan".

And this is the reason why Ning Yuan fears Lord Ruins even more, and begins to believe that the existence of the virtual world and Ruins Lord is longer than the official announcement and most people recognize.

Ancient Qi repair era. It was an age called legend that lasted more than 30,000 years from 50,000 years ago to its end 20,000 years ago.

Legend has it that although the vitality of the stars and heavens of that era is not comparable to that of the more ancient mythological age, it is also an age when the vitality is manifested and condensed into a spring, which is thick and unusual.

Legend has it that in that era, almost everyone was a cultivator, and there were a lot of people who called the wind, called the rain, flew into the sky and escaped the earth. They were truly powerful and walked everywhere. The monks were not as good as dogs. That era was the closest to "everyone is like a dragon".

Legend has it that the stars of that era did not have the "seven oceans and four seas" that the current stars call, but only a red sea that surrounded the entire continent and was called "the sea of ​​vermilion stars."

Legend has it that the continents of the stars in that era were still a whole, occupying nearly 80% of the area of ​​the entire stars, and they were almost infinite continents seen from a distance. At that time, the continent had a magnificent name-Honghuang Continent.

Legend has it that in that era, the treasures of heaven and earth were almost infinite, spiritual flowers and weeds were everywhere, and there were countless rare birds and animals. Although there are no heaven and earth spirit treasures like the myth age, there are also many powerful magic weapons close to spirit treasures-source treasures, which contain the treasures of origin.

Legend has it that the human race, cat race, fox spirit race, feather race, barbarian race, and long-eared race were only relatively weak races among the many races of the stars. Not to mention the more powerful races abound, but there are definitely many.

However, with the outbreak of the second "Tian Yuan Change", the extremely brilliant Qi repair civilization was destroyed in a very short period of time. The more powerful the race, the more it could not escape the destiny of destruction. On the contrary, the relatively weak races such as Human race barely survived the crisis of depletion of damage and destruction of civilization.

But although it survived, the heritage of civilization is completely lost.

Only these legends passed down by word of mouth and the ruins discovered by archaeological descendants and the fragments of broken scripts left in the ruins are handed down.

Ning Yuan can now basically confirm that the "Nieno Continent" is a world based on the evolution of the stars in that legendary era. Then the years of the existence of Lord Market Lord who accurately used this to evolve the world can be foreseen.

Lord Market Lord has survived for at least 20,000 years. In other words, Lord Market Lord has existed as a tool spirit for at least 20,000 years.

What is the concept of 20000?

Near the end of the Dharma era, with the rapid development of gas refining technology and the modernization of biotechnology, the average life span of the star human race is about 130 years. Of course this refers to ordinary people.

Even if the time of 20000 is counted with the most exaggerated 130-year generation, it is enough for the ordinary human race of the stars to multiply for nearly 170 generations. However, the normal reproduction time for a human being is between 20 and 30 years. The years of 20000 are really a long time span for ordinary people of Zhuxing to feel desperate.

The Lord of the Market, who has gone through such a long time span, is enough to inspire all students who know this fact in awe. This has nothing to do with strength, it is simply awe of time.

"Master Market Master deserves the title of God of the World." Ning Yuan sighed softly.

After confirming that the Nieno continent was based on the evolution of the stars in the peak Qi repair era, the similarities in the historical records of the Nieno continent and the stars were compared. When Ning Yuan discovered the similarities between the two, he had already had a certain eye for the confusion of his current situation. And these silent observations over a period of more than a month and the changes that have taken place in the "unknown lamp" are enough to confirm Ning Yuan's guess.

If Ning Yuan didn't guess wrong, this dark space is the "Eternal Night Realm" produced by the mirage in that ancient book. Even if it is not, it must be a similar existence.

"And it," Ning Yuan looked at the completely changed lamp in his hand: "It should be the male lamp in the Yin-Yang soul calming lamp on the shoulders of the twins recorded in ancient books. Then the other 49'unknown lamps' in the Kun package should be. Shade lamp."

"However, although it is basically certain that the'Yin-Yang Soul Calming Lamp' and the'Eternal Night Realm' mapped out by the mirage which is suspected to be the companion spirit beast'Yin-Yang Mirage' of the twin race in the legend, there is a relationship between mutual growth and restraint.' Yin Yang Town Soul lamp', oh, yes. It's called the'Twin Soul Lamp' on the Nieno continent."

"Heh, the'twin' twins. The master of the market gave a hint without concealing it. Anyone who has a little understanding of the ancient Qixiu era can basically guess something based on the mural and the twin sun lamp in hand. thing."

However, if Ning Yuan has not obtained the "First Explanation of Learning (Complete Edition and has not fully understood the basic knowledge of all aspects of the Nieno continent, it will be difficult to connect the twins in the murals with the twins in real legends.

"Then the Ningbing Clan is the legendary'Cold Water Blue Ling Clan'?" Ning Yuan muttered to himself as he looked at the "Ningbing Source" in the Kunbao, and then thought of the four-armed race on the mural." Is the four-armed tribe the legendary'Langxie tribe' or the'Jana tribe'?"

Ning Yuan would stop and check every time an "unknown lamp" was placed while thinking about it.

It was discovered that, except for the "unknown lamp" that was the first to change, the other 37 "unknown lamps" were still in a state of refinement.

After returning to the place where he first awoke from the frenzy, Ning Yuan took the "Twin Soul Calming Lamp (Yang back to Kun Bao, and then sat down cross-legged to continue thinking.

"Although the nature of darkness has been guessed, and the key breaking props have been obtained. But what should be done to crack this dark space that is suspected of'Eternal Night Realm' still feels almost something."

"After all the 49'unknown lamps' are refined, the dark space can be automatically released? This seems a bit too simple."

"Or do you need to sacrifice all the 49'Twin Soul Lights (Yang is the correct way to open this dark space?"

"But how do you sacrifice?"

Ning Yuan thought about it while recalling the information in his mind.

"And I don't seem to fully understand the true meaning of this test until now."

Ning Yuan originally guessed that this space was a pure test of willpower. However, after the experience, Ning Yuan is certain that even the cat race who is most adaptable to the darkness and possesses a strong will among the stars cannot resist the invasion of negative emotions and thoughts in the darkness of this suspected ‘Eternal Night’s Realm’.
