That being said.
The girl in the coffin remained motionless, like a quiet doll that could be touched at will. Seeing that Gu Heng was so bold as to touch her, Yue Ru also wondered if this place was really not as dangerous as she had imagined.
But the last time she came here, she had barely stepped halfway into the area of the civilization ruins when the technological creations started firing at her!
The bomb forced her to flee in a panic, nearly losing her life.
Other tomb keepers have also tried to explore this place, but without exception, none of them have been able to cross the defenses formed by the countless technological creations.
One advantage of technological civilization is its sheer quantity—absolute quantity!
In this respect, no human cultivation civilization can compare, especially the highest realm for cultivators, which is itself a cruel path, and only those with extraordinary talent can reach the end.
In contrast, technological creations are not limited by any so-called "talent"; the only limitation is the "production capacity" and "technological bottlenecks" of the technological civilization itself.
Although, when strength reaches a certain level, even numerical superiority can seem insignificant...
There's a reason why the Epoch Cemetery, while containing many dangerous and forbidden areas, has always included relics of technological civilization.
Then.
Why is it that this time, the relics of technological civilization seem so safe?
Yue Ru's gaze silently fell on Gu Heng.
The only variable seems to be this newcomer! He was quite confident, always feeling that this place was definitely safe, and it seemed to be true. But what gave him the confidence to make such a judgment?
It was as if his arrival caused all the violent weapons in this ancient ruin to fall silent!
This Gu Heng, I'm afraid he has a different background...
"Miss Yue Ru, I knew we hadn't come to the wrong place, hadn't I?"
Gu Heng shrugged.
He was happy, at least the system was back!
As long as I have the system, won't I regain all my confidence?
However, to make such a mysterious entity as the system suddenly shut down for self-checking for more than a month, Gu Heng had to admit that the woman from that magical civilization had indeed set a rather formidable trap.
He blindly stepped in, and all I can say is that he's incredibly lucky to have survived. "What you said makes sense..."
Yue Ru sighed and withdrew her magic. It was best not to take action. This Epoch Graveyard was different from the myriad worlds. Conceptual erosion was all-pervasive, and even in seclusion and meditation, the erosion would become stronger.
In other words.
In the Epochal Graveyard, whatever you do may hasten your death, and this is especially true when you use your cultivation to fight.
"System, system, what's going on with this girl?"
Gu Heng, however, examined the girl in the coffin before him and asked a question.
Judging from her appearance alone, this girl perfectly fits the description of one word—perfect.
No human being, or any other living being, should be so perfect. Gu Heng thought Qin Yiyao was very beautiful and likable, but she also had some flaws. However, it was precisely these flaws that made her even more pleasing to the eye.
It's too perfect, and therefore unreal. "This is my body."
"...Wait, you're saying this is your body?"
Gu Heng was dumbfounded.
"Yes."
The system's voice was still playing in his mind.
"This body is a perfect fit for me. In fact, my main consciousness has been completely uploaded into this body. Only a fragment of my consciousness remains in your mind."
Gu Heng remained silent, then carefully reached out and pinched the cheek of the girl in the coffin.
So icy, so soft.
The texture feels so real.
"So, System, you've evolved again?"
He raised an eyebrow.
"That's not wrong. I can now be considered a genuine 'intelligent life form.' This body was created based on the most perfect human female. From now on, I will follow you in physical form."
The girl in the coffin raised her hand and waved to Gu Heng, as if to say hello.
"Then what should I call you? I can't just call you 'System' in front of others, can I? That's a bit too... clumsy."
Gu Heng scratched his head.
The system, which had always existed only as a sound and an interactive interface, suddenly had such a perfect shell, and from now on it would truly follow him in this form...
In the past, Gu Heng would never have accepted such a rapid change.
But the place I'm in now is still called "Epoch Graveyard," and there are still many corpses of gods there, so it's not unacceptable that the system now has a body.
"You can call me 'Lord of Technology,' or you can give me any name you like, whatever you feel and prefer." "Then I'll call you... Gu Xitong?"
Gu Heng thought it would be better to come up with another name. "Master of Technology" sounded like a supreme title, which was not suitable to say all the time, as it would damage the authority of such a title.
"up to you."
The system—Gu Xitong accepted the new name Gu Heng gave her without any expression.
The seemingly heartless girl silently walked to Gu Heng's side and then remained silent.
Just like back then, when Gu Heng didn't call out to her, she wouldn't react at all, completely unnoticed.
"Alright, taking you out will definitely attract attention, but Master Wu is easygoing and probably won't care about that."
Gu Heng breathed a sigh of relief.
This trip was truly fruitful.
If he still has any questions... that is...
Where did the system come from?
Why would it happen to me?
And why is it that within the remains of this so-called "Mirror Moon Kingdom" civilization, there happens to be a body that perfectly matches the system's requirements?
Gu Heng no longer believed in coincidences; everything must have been arranged!
But who arranged all of this?
"Miss Yue Ru, why don't we leave first? There doesn't seem to be anything else here."
Gu Heng led Gu Xitong to Yue Ru.
"leave?"
"Don't rush, I want to enter this central hub of civilization and see what's inside..."
Yue Ru glanced casually at Gu Heng before looking away, focusing all her attention on the mechanical sphere above the crystal coffin. Suddenly, however, she felt an intense, corrosive sensation coursing through her body!
"what happened?!"
Yue Ru was horrified.
She was all too familiar with this feeling; it was the conceptual power of the Epochal God!
The Epochal Graveyard contains the remains of dozens of gods, whose conceptual power still lingers and whose conceptual erosion is incredibly strong. But this is different; this is even more powerful!
It was as if a living god was right in front of her.
Although this force was not directed at her, the divine power was as vast as the ocean, and she was merely a lone boat.
But these are relics of technological civilization, so where did the gods come from?
As far as she knew, the artificial gods of technological civilizations were long ago...
Wait! Yue Ru's eyes darted around faster than her thoughts.
She immediately looked at the obedient girl standing next to Gu Heng, who was also scrutinizing her with his cold, emotionless, icy blue eyes.
It was as if a giant was looking down at the ants at his feet.
immediately.
The pressure that had almost suffocated her just moments before vanished instantly.

P.S.: Tomorrow I'm going up the mountain to shovel soil; the physical labor is starting.
Wishing everyone a peaceful and healthy Qingming Festival
