Chapter 335 Searching for the Hidden True Path
"Intruder detected..."
"Inheritance Test... Begins."
The half-mechanical remains hanging upside down in mid-air were still mechanically repeating pre-programmed lines in its emotionless, synthesized electronic voice.
The colorful mechanical heart inside his chest flashed like a cheap neon light.
Chen Yifan stood still, not even lifting his eyelids.
Just now, he wanted to see if he could violently disassemble this thing, but it was obvious that their strength levels were not on the same level.
As for the inheritance this thing talks about...
He saw it all clearly in the illusion just now.
No matter how fierce this thing was in life, it was just cannon fodder charging at the front.
It couldn't even withstand a beam of white light from the "Cleanser" and had half of its body wiped out on the spot.
This kind of inheritance dares to call itself the ultimate?
Not to mention that this thing isn't even human.
It follows a purely mechanical modification approach, which is completely different from its own Heart Palace system, and they have absolutely nothing to do with each other.
To put it bluntly, this guy isn't even worthy of carrying his shoes.
Why should he abandon the Great Dao of the Heart Palace that he has painstakingly cultivated to accept such a "low-end" violent thug inheritance?
Only someone with a brain full of water would do something like that.
"It just keeps going on and on."
Chen Yifan cursed impatiently in his heart, then immediately withdrew his attention, too lazy to look at the shimmering seven-colored heart again.
Whoever wants it can have it; he doesn't care anyway.
Just then, a violent tremor suddenly came from the rock strata above their heads, followed by a muffled explosion and the piercing roar of machine guns.
Boom! Rumble!
Gravel and soil fell down in a rustling sound, and the entire underground space shook.
Chen Yifan raised an eyebrow, his mind's eye instantly activating. His powerful spiritual energy spread upwards along the passageway he had come from, allowing him to clearly perceive the situation outside.
[At this point, I hope readers will remember our domain name: 10 ...
Above the mine pit, everything had completely turned into a mess.
On one side was the Lantern Bearers, dressed in black combat uniforms and exuding an official, iron-blooded aura, led by Lei Zhen, the director of the Jiangcheng branch.
On the other side was a group of cyborgs whose bodies were mostly made of metal. They were uniformly branded with gears and vertical pupils on their chests; they were the lunatics from the Council of Order.
Two groups of people fought fiercely outside the bronze gate, the flames from the explosions almost illuminating the entire mine.
"Director Lei! Stop yelling! Your ragged equipment as lamplighters can't protect what's inside!"
A minor leader of the Order Council, whose face was half metal, brandished a chainsaw sword on his arm, his voice extremely arrogant.
"This mine is under the control of our Order Council today! Get out if you don't want to die!"
"Bullshit!"
Lei Zhen hid behind an armored personnel carrier, his eyes bloodshot, and roared through a megaphone.
"This is Chinese territory! The Qilin Conglomerate's entire coffers were wiped out, and you guys show up? Do you think we're fools?! Attack! Tear these tin cans apart!"
Clearly, both sides regarded each other as the murderer of the Qilin conglomerate, and both were determined to obtain the "treasure" behind the door, so they started fighting without warning.
Chen Yifan watched the farce unfold and sneered inwardly.
Dogs fighting, a mouthful of fur.
Perfect, let them make a scene outside, it'll save them the trouble of bothering me.
He withdrew his mental energy and stopped paying attention to the battle outside.
A Taoist temple of such high standard could not possibly have a "hall" the size of a football field.
The Qingyong Gate we just saw required thousands of lives to be sacrificed to open; the true core of it must be hidden even deeper inside.
Chen Yifan took a step forward and began to carefully explore this lush green space.
His mental power was like the most sophisticated radar, scanning the walls and the ground inch by inch, not missing any abnormal energy fluctuations.
This space was filled with the violent, heretical aura emanating from that mechanical remains, which had a strong disruptive effect on the mental power of ordinary professionals.
But for Chen Yifan, this disturbance was no different from a gentle breeze.
His mental power was at such a high level that these "impurities" could not shake it at all.
A minute later, he stopped in front of a wall directly behind the upside-down mutilated body.
This wall is no different from the rest of the wall, also inlaid with glowing green fluorescent stones.
However, in Chen Yifan's perception, there was an extremely faint, almost imperceptible fault in the energy flow of this wall.
Like a tiny, invisible eddy hidden in a calm, flowing stream.
found it.
Chen Yifan stretched out his finger, his fingertip gathering starlight-like spiritual energy, and gently touched the fluorescent stone that had sensed the anomaly.
hum!
The entire wall suddenly lit up, and countless mysterious and complex array patterns emerged from inside the stone wall, forming a huge energy network.
The spot Chen Yifan pointed to was the core energy node of the entire array network.
Without hesitation, he mobilized the power of his Heart Palace, and a surge of extremely pure spiritual energy poured into his fingertips.
Click!
After a crisp sound, the array patterns on the wall instantly dimmed.
Immediately afterwards, the entire wall silently caved inward, revealing a dark opening just wide enough for one person to pass through.
An aura ten times stronger and more ancient and pure than that in the foyer wafted out of the cave entrance.
Chen Yifan's lips curled up slightly.
This is the real meal.
He glanced back at the mechanical heart that was still flashing with iridescent light, as if it were a pile of unwanted trash.
Have a great time!
He muttered something to himself and stepped into the dark, hidden door.
The instant his figure disappeared, the upside-down mechanical remains seemed to sense something; the seven-colored heart on its chest dimmed abruptly, and the mechanical electronic voice stopped abruptly.
Just then, chaotic footsteps and roars came from the entrance of the mine tunnel.
"Damn it! These lamplighters' mad dogs are firing on all cylinders!"
"Captain! Look! There's light ahead!"
A vanguard of the Order Council, having fought their way out of the encirclement in the firefight, charged into the green underground space, their bodies crackling with electricity.
They immediately spotted the mechanical heart floating in mid-air, radiating a seven-colored halo.
The cyborg captain, who was leading the group, had his metal mask trembling violently, his electronic eyes blazing with fanatical light, and his voice distorted with excitement.
"It's it! There's no mistake! It's the mechanical core of the first 'Guardian'!"
No sooner had he finished speaking than the Lantern Bearers, who had been pursuing him, rushed in.
Lei Zhen's deputy saw the heart at a glance, his pupils also contracted sharply, and he immediately raised the Gauss rifle in his hand, aiming it at the members of the Order Council.
"Put down your weapons! Everything inside belongs to the Chinese government!"
