Chapter 915: Something Big Is About to Happen
"Xi Tong, are you controlling all these combat mechs now?"
On the mountain peak outside the Mirror Moon Kingdom ruins, Gu Heng gazed out. The countless mechanical weapons within the ruins still patrolled back and forth along some pre-set route, and everything seemed no different.
Besides, there was the "system" that he carried with him, which had become a physical entity.
Of course, now I have to call her Xi Tong.
Now that she has a physical form, although we can continue to communicate telepathically, she will eventually have to show her face in public. I can't keep calling her "system" in front of others all the time.
"Yes, I have taken over all authority here."
Gu Xitong said expressionlessly. Her voice remained as cold as ice.
"What do you want to do?"
"Hmm... I don't know, but in a place like this, it's good to have more help."
Gu Heng hadn't yet figured out what to do with the hunting technology weapons in the Mirror Moon Kingdom ruins. There were simply too many of them, at least hundreds of thousands, or even millions!
This number is quite terrifying if we don't consider the issue of overwhelming strength.
However, there were no obvious enemies in this epochal graveyard. The graveyard guardians were already present, and he didn't want to be too conspicuous.
With a casual gesture, a whole bunch of technological weapons could be summoned, which would make it difficult for him to survive.
"Tell me anytime you want to do what you want."
Gu Xitong said calmly. Such a petite body, yet she speaks with such fearlessness. It's wonderful. He's been feeling anxious since he hasn't felt this stable sense of security for just over a month.
Gu Heng touched her forehead and then rubbed her cheeks.
Easy to squeeze.
The body looks very realistic. However, for a technologically advanced civilization, even if it cannot actually create a human body with flesh and blood, it seems that imitating its feel is not a problem.
"Sure, sure. Now that you're back, I should be able to use your teleportation ability to leave this place, right?"
Gu Heng had not forgotten his purpose.
This place is not a place to stay for long. As Master Wu Zhao said, there is something called "concept erosion" in the Epoch Cemetery. It is like a slow poison. Anyone who sits still here will be "poisoned"!
Although he doesn't feel any signs of physical damage right now, since it's chronic, the longer he stays there, the more serious the injury will become.
You can come back later.
But Gu Heng just wanted to leave as soon as possible and go back to let Qin Yiyao and the others know he was safe, otherwise his disciple would definitely worry himself to death.
Disappearing for more than a month might not be a big deal, as it's not like he's never been away for more than a month before. The problem is that Qin Yiyao witnessed him walking into a trap, and the uncertainty of his fate is what worries her the most.
"No."
Xi Tong said.
"Why not?"
Gu Heng raised an eyebrow.
"The Epoch Cemetery contains a large number of divine remains, and too many different concepts are intertwined and disturbed, so the teleportation function cannot function properly."
"Forced teleportation might be feasible, but we don't know what the consequences would be."
"What... what should I do? I can't just be stuck here and die, can I?"
Even the usually reliable Xi Tong said so, which dampened Gu Heng's originally high spirits. If he couldn't even escape using the teleportation function, then according to the Martial Emperor's Hall Master, this place was a "prison" that he could enter but not leave.
As for whether the Epoch Cemetery has any other exits...
Many people have come to the Epoch Cemetery for various reasons, and the flow has been continuous. If there are other ways to get out, these predecessors, at least the powerful ones, have already found some clues.
"The Epoch Cemetery has a spacetime vortex; you can leave by passing through it."
Xi Tong said.
"Oh?"
"Sounds simple enough." Gu Heng stroked his chin.
Yue Ru caught up at this moment, and he casually leaned over and asked, "Miss Yue Ru, do you know where there are spacetime vortices in this Epoch Graveyard?"
"Spacetime vortex?"
Hear the words.
Yue Ru frowned: "I've never heard of any spacetime vortex."
"You don't know? Never mind, I'll ask Master Wu when we get back."
It seems that spacetime vortexes are not something everyone knows about in the Epoch Graveyard; they must be very rare, and probably only the older generation of graveyard keepers know about them.
……
A few days later.
Gu Heng, Yue Ru, and Gu Xitong returned to the Buddhist Plain. As soon as they entered the abandoned Great Buddha Temple, Gu Heng found that there were more than twenty people gathered there, which was quite strange. Although there were three or four hundred tomb guardians, scattered under the jurisdiction of nineteen hall masters, Gu Heng had never seen so many tomb guardians gathered together before.
The reason for this is that people don't want to just sit here and waste time.
This concept is pervasive and insidious; everyone is essentially chronically poisoned. Rather than sitting idly by, it's better to go out and find the "antidote" to prolong life. However, finding such an opportunity also requires luck.
It's not uncommon for people to die while exploring the ruins of those civilizations.
Wu Zhao's subordinates have basically been replaced halfway through, and even Yue Ru is considered one of his veterans.
"Looks like something big has happened."
Gu Heng and Yue Ru arrived at a corner of the Buddhist temple, with Gu Xitong following closely behind. Although there were about twenty people in the temple, it still seemed deserted, and the members of the tomb guardians did not speak to each other. It seemed that not getting close to each other had become an unspoken rule here.
Besides him taking the initiative to talk to Yue Ru.
“Something big is definitely going to happen. The last time we gathered all the people under a hall master like this was a long time ago…”
Yue Ru murmured.
Before long, Wu Zhao came out of the Buddhist temple.
"Brothers, I won't waste my breath. There's a very important matter I've called you all back for..."
"The deputy tomb masters have decided to launch a heavy attack on the 'tomb beast'!"
"This time, the entire tomb keeper team will be mobilized!"
The words fell.
The tomb keepers inside the Buddhist temple were all shocked upon hearing this. "What?!"
"Looks like those two big shots have finally decided to give those bastards a good thrashing. Good, this looks like it's going to be very successful!"
Gu Heng, on the other hand, was completely baffled. A tomb beast?
what is that?
He looked at Yue Ru.
Yue Ru frowned and explained in a low voice, "Tomb Beasts are monsters that ravage the Epoch Graveyard. They are said to have been born from the corpses of gods..."
"They will rampage everywhere, devouring everything, and the tomb beasts will in turn make the concept erosion even more powerful."
"I didn't tell you before because this kind of monster only appears in certain specific locations, and I figured you wouldn't encounter it."
It doesn't sound like something to mess with.
"Looks like I'm going to run into them this time too."
Gu Heng shrugged. It sounded dangerous, but he wasn't afraid. Now that Xi Tong was back by his side, why would he panic?
