The expression on his face finally showed a slight relaxation; he hadn’t spent this year aimlessly enjoying the scenery or touring the land, but was measuring the speed of the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Mechanism’s recovery.
There is still some time, at least fifteen more years to sufficiently prepare for it.
After providing this information to the Security Bureau, Lu Ren no longer interfered excessively, after all, the machinery of the entire country cannot be turned by one person alone; it requires the concerted efforts of government departments to achieve sufficient productivity and to be well prepared.
"Is fifteen years of preparation time a bit rushed?"
Ji Quanzhen frowned deeply, unconsciously playing with the dishes on the table with his chopsticks.
Lu Ren frowned: "Are you eating or not? If not, get out."
Ji Quanzhen snapped back to reality, smiled awkwardly, and placed the dishes he had fiddled with into his own bowl.
"I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I wasn’t before, but recently I’ve had too many worries, making me a bit impatient and restless."
Lu Ren said, "Fifteen years is not short, but we must understand, during this period, some ancient Immortal Gods will definitely arrive early. We must be prepared; the situation... will be very brutal."
Those ancient Immortal Gods, after drifting through the depths of the starry sky for countless years, upon their return, will absolutely be in desperate need to supplement themselves, and those with vigorous Qi and Blood and robust Divine Souls will be the best nourishment.
Ji Quanzhen nodded solemnly: "I understand this point, we’ve been preparing, after all, I am the director of the Security Bureau, so I have some say."
After a pause, Ji Quanzhen continued, "A year ago, I told you about discovering a stable space gap passage, do you remember?"
Lu Ren nodded slightly: "What about it, any new discoveries?" For origınal chapters go to novｅlfire.net
"A very significant discovery." Ji Quanzhen said with a hint of joy on his face: "Inside is a post-apocalyptic wasteland, the apocalyptic area everywhere following nuclear explosions, thick radiation dust covering the entire sky."
Lu Ren said in surprise: "And you still find this place good."
"There’s no mention of Immortal Gods there, only mutations, biochemical mutations of a controllable nature. With just some time, an inhabitable area can be cleared out, and we’ve explored that the mineral reserves there are extremely abundant, the entire planet is nearly six times larger than the Earth we live on, along with a heavier gravity environment and a relatively rich oxygen content in the air."
At this point, Ji Quanzhen had a slight smile on his face: "Which means the creatures over there might be a bit larger in size, but that’s no big deal, as long as it can be solved with hot weapons, it’s no big deal."
He looked at Lu Ren and said: "Want to go and take a look? Although experts have already gone in to explore, if you go and take a look, you might discover deeper things that we haven’t paid attention to."
Lu Ren nodded slightly in agreement, indicating that he would find time to check it out in a couple of days.
Lu Ren was not in a hurry to investigate this Exotic Realm; after all, this Exotic Realm Passage was only valued by Huaxia because of its stability, and the place had by now been entirely cleared of the populace, fully forming a militarized base with round-the-clock protection, just like the Kunlun Exotic Realm Passage back then.
Nowadays, that mountain has long since become a trial ground for the Martial Arts Family, and in that Endless Forest, a rather large area has already been opened up, forming a city-level residential area where only the accomplished Martial Arts Family or Qi Refiners who could initially perform Divine Power Techniques in long-range attacks could enter.
If Kunlun Exotic Realm were not the Celestial Realm among the Heaven, Earth, and Human Three Realms, previously inhabited by a considerable number of ancient Immortal Gods, it is very likely that once the ancient Immortal Gods return, many Immortal Gods would reside in Kunlun Exotic Realm. As a result, after barely building a city-level residential area, they have not expanded outward any further.
Over the years, it has developed into an important precious resource acquisition site, a martial arts trial ground, as in the Endless Forest of the Kunlun Exotic Realm, there are countless rare medicinal herbs and treasures hidden, along with many rare birds and exotic beasts. If hunted, one would not have to worry about anything for a lifetime.
Three days later, having watched several recent National Martial Arts Competitions at the Phoenix Falcon Boxing Club, Lu Ren, after lunch, leisurely arrived beside this space passage of the post-apocalyptic wasteland.
After swiping his identity to enter the military base, the system’s prompt sounded slowly again.
"Ding, the post-apocalyptic wasteland Exotic Realm Passage you’ve discovered seems to have suffered from destructive damage."
"Sir, protective suits are over there." An officer pointed to a supply rack not far away.
"No need, thank you."
Upon hearing Lu Ren decline, the officer didn’t say much more. After all, for many top-notch Martial Arts Family members, their bodies have reached an incredible level of resistance to extreme environments.
If a Martial Arts Family of the Bright Awakening Realm comprehends the Path of Microcosmic, they could even initially control changes at the cellular level. What is fatal nuclear radiation to regular people has no effect on these Martial Arts Family members.
Just like entering a layer of gel, it felt quite strange.
In just a moment of a trance, what appeared before Lu Ren’s eyes was a military base with long guns and short cannons erected, where countless heavily armed military personnel came and went, and the more elite full-coverage power armor units were a common sight.
And to Lu Ren’s surprise, the radiation level in this area had already dropped to a normal range, allowing for normal living conditions.
In the distance, dozens of floating planes roared and sprayed white mist in the sky, removing the radiation dust.
After identification, Lu Ren directly went to the armory, picked up an Alloy Battle Sword, and changed into the latest black Fish Scale Combat Suit.
The latest Fish Scale Combat Suit now has an amazingly impressive elasticity and defense, capable of resisting a bullet from a heavy sniper rifle without any damage. Even if one unlocks the Ten Lands Unbinding and restores the Dharma Cloud Earth Bodhisattva Dharma Aspect, the Fish Scale Armor will not be burst apart, unless the Hundred Forms Merging from the Future Buddha True Scripture is initiated. It is quite an ideal piece of clothing.
With a longsword hanging from his waist, Lu Ren rose into the air, under the gaze of the military forefront base, without any assistance, flying slowly away into the sky.
"This one, he must be a super expert in the Determination Path Realm?!"
"I heard Qi Cultivation Cultivators only need to learn the Soaring Technique to fly by gathering True Qi."
"What are you thinking, you also need to be in the Bright Awakening Realm to do that, and besides, look at that physique, can he be a Qi Refiner?"
"Eh, I suddenly feel like he looks familiar, who is he really?"
