I Have Refined Qi For 3000 Years! - Chapter 492
[23. Degenerate intelligent life]
“How is it possible? How can intelligent races degenerate into beasts?”
Bai Qiuran pretended to be surprised on the surface, but he was thinking in his heart.
Although the beasts held in the previous cells looked like monsters, they did have some characteristics of being able to use tools, and their intelligence seemed to be higher than ordinary beasts.
Bai Qiuran originally thought that this was a special sample that the machine god grabbed and studied, but if what the blue-skinned old man said was true, then it all made sense.
But if the grotesque beasts he’d seen before were all intelligent beings, then what made them what they are now.
“It’s the machine god, or rather, the rule of the machine god.”
As if guessing Bai Qiuran’s thoughts, the blue-skinned old man said:
“As intelligent life, we have more powerful thinking ability than other beasts, we can think, create, and invent many things, but we are also creatures after all.”
“One creature has been domesticated by a stable life for a long time, and over time, it will become another kind of creature. If we don’t think, our thinking will degenerate, if we don’t exercise, our body will gradually degenerate, and eventually become a group of lost The beasts of thinking ability, at that time, we who have lost the meaning of breeding to the machine gods, will be driven out of the city by it, driven to the wilderness, and then become the bottom of the food chain, and eventually die.”
“The so-called “born in distress, died in peace”, is that right?”
Bai Qiuran murmured.
“Where did you hear this sentence?”
The blue-skinned old man nodded.
“But it makes sense. You see, domesticated creatures and their cousins living in the wild are still the same creature?”
of course not.
Bai Qiuran said in his heart.
Just like domestic pigs in captivity and wild boars in the wild, except for their similar appearance, they are completely two species.
“Okay, the words have been said, you can leave if you want, and you can report to the machine god if you want.”
The blue-skinned old man waved his hand and said:
“Just when I was talking to myself, hum, anyway, after the Ascension Ritual, you new generation are already the lackeys of the machine god.”
“I have another question.”
After thinking about it, Bai Qiuran asked:
“Where did you get this [historical knowledge] from?”
The blue-skinned old man dragged his body and fell on the bed in the corner of the cell, silent.
Seeing that he didn’t speak, Bai Qiuran stopped for a while and didn’t bother any more.
The announcement from the machine puppet in the monitoring room sounded in his mind. Perhaps seeing him staying at the door of a cell for too long, the puppet began to ask him if something happened.
Bai Qiuran perfunctory, then closed the bars of the cell, and left with Tang Ruowei.
“Master.”
While the two were manipulating the body of the puppet to walk in the passage of the cell, Tang Ruowei said through her divine sense:
“Do you think he’s telling the truth?”
“Most of it is true, at least, as far as he understands it, everything is true.”
Bai Qiuran replied:
“He knows his own situation, and he obviously knows that his race will be marked with a mental seal of absolute loyalty to the God of Machines after experiencing the ritual of ascension, so he will not deliberately lie to deceive us… He knows that lies are important to promotion machines. The blue-skinned man behind the puppet is a useless thing.”
“If it’s true, then Shu Huaxian… This thing that Shu Hua created at the beginning…”
“It’s spoiled, or he didn’t set it well at the beginning, which caused this thing to go wrong.”
Bai Qiuran replied without hesitation:
“After all, it’s been 50,000 years, and it’s normal for this to happen. Let’s look for it again. After we find the captive in the Immortal Realm, we’ll talk about this.”
Bai Qiuran chose to keep silent, and Tang Ruowei didn’t ask any more questions, but the girl knew in her heart that after her master knew about the situation here, it was absolutely impossible for her to let her mind go.
This is not only due to his understanding of him, but more importantly, it is the mental seal that Bai Qiuran engraved on himself.
Today’s machine spirit is obviously hindering the progress and development of countless creatures and civilizations in the material world, so for Bai Qiuran, it is a mortal enemy.

The field of consciousness, the front line of the fairyland fortress.
A spaceship full of metal texture from the void on the other side quietly came to the vicinity of the magnificent fairy city.
It landed on the surface of a certain world, and the blue flame ejected from the jet of the spacecraft accelerator gradually disappeared. Then, a cloud of silver-white liquid flowed out from the gap in the hatch.
This mass of liquid flowed to the surface of the field of consciousness and gradually condensed to form a mass of liquid similar to a slime. After it successfully escaped from the spacecraft, a huge golden symbol also appeared on the hatch of the spacecraft, releasing shining light.
After this rune appeared, the entire spaceship also silently self-destructed immediately. In a blaze of light, all the elements that made up the spaceship instantly turned into golden particles and flew away.
And the silver-white liquid squirmed, released its own perception, and stretched out to the huge immortal city in front.
At this time, the danger of knowing demons in the field of consciousness has been lifted, the gate of Xiancheng is open, and countless huge flying boats in the sky of Xiancheng pass through the gate, shuttle into Xiancheng, and unload all the goods and baggage on the ship to the dock of Xiancheng.
After the silver-white liquid wriggled on the surface of the field of consciousness for a while, it suddenly turned into the smallest spaceship. It flew to the fleet of Immortal Realm, mixed into it silently, and then approached the bottom of a large ship. , it quickly turned into a layer of coating and stuck to the bottom of the big ship.
The hot energy ejected from the runes at the bottom of the big ship burned its constituent tissues, so the silver-white liquid moved along the surface of the big ship, and finally moved to the deck, turning into a lump of countless materials, piled up on the surface. on the shelf of the boat.
When the big ship entered the port, it was unloaded from the ship and transported to the warehouse by the immortals along with other goods. After the people in the warehouse left, it turned into a small flying insect and flew out of the window. Landed on the back seat of an immortal caravan.
Following this convoy, it came to the innermost part of the fortress group in the immortal world, close to the crack in the consciousness barrier, and then it turned into a pool of clear water, quietly concealing the perception of an immortal, and hiding the sword behind him. In the sheath, it turned into the most basic metal particles and attached to his flying sword.
When the immortal passed the detection of the immortal world and entered the immortal void opposite the consciousness barrier, the silver-white liquid quietly sensed his thoughts and memories with his own thinking perception device. In the immortal fortress part, when he entered an uninhabited street, the silver-white liquid stunned him, and then turned into his appearance.
He sealed the immortal in the folds of a space, then carried the flying sword on his back, followed the fleet of the immortal world in a leisurely manner, and returned to the central immortal world.
After coming to the Central Immortal Realm, he followed his previous practice and stunned a servant who was not high in cultivation, transformed into his appearance, and entered the Central Immortal Palace.
In the Hall of Supreme Harmony in the Central Immortal Palace, the newly appointed Immortal Emperor Le Zhentian was dealing with government affairs, and a silver-white liquid in the shape of an official entered it, saluted him, and then quietly observed.
It finally saw the ruler of the void on this shore.
