Into the Immortal Cultivation - Chapter 1732
[Chapter 88]
After entering Lauder’s cave, Wang Qi and a group of worms from the Cang Gui clan entered a long discontinuous gentle slope. After going through more than a dozen discontinuous gentle slopes, Wang Qi estimated that he had dropped at least about 300 meters.
There are traces of artificial polishing on the ground and rock walls. However, the monks of these big bugs could not hide the origin of this hollow fault. After the ground fire was gradually stinking, the magma solidified and contracted, and the rock layers collapsed little by little. These hollows were brutally torn apart by the planet’s own gravity.
According to the information returned by spiritual knowledge, this labyrinth is generally very large in underground cities, while Wang Qi and the others have superficial spiritual power.
Although it is a shallow layer, this part is very close to the boundary of the topaz, and it is estimated that it also undertakes the task of “outpost”, so the number of insect swarms is huge, and it has a very convenient ventilation structure. In Wang Qi’s perception, there are countless winds flowing against the cliff wall. These winds cling to small grooves already dug in the rock face and leave when needed. And there are quite complicated airflows in the mid-air.
Wang Qi realized that it was not unreasonable for this group of monks who were at least at the stage of forming pills to go there. This area must be forbidden to fly. And if a bug flies over here and disrupts the flow of the wind, then the chaotic effect can make this wind net, which is as complex as a neural net, completely useless.
In many key formations, Wang Qi also saw the dangling insect nest. There are a few bugs in it, and they seem to be using magic to maintain the order of the air flow.
“It seems that it is not a particularly advanced herd species. Among the beast herds in the records, in addition to some small beast herds that communicate with sound waves, the large beast herds should have other bases in addition to lutein. The communication method of spells, the ant clan’s spirit element magic circle, or the ‘spirit wave’ of a certain destroyer beast species… This beast species’ approach is a bit low-level?”
Wang Qi was a little bit on this. Confuse. For the herd species, the speed of information flow between individuals is equivalent to the brain computing power of the flesh-and-blood species. If it is said that there is no magic assistance, and only communicates with lutein, the thinking speed of the beast species itself is usually not too high.
And this “incidental communication method”, according to Meishen’s statement, can be derived from its own characteristics and the inherent function of the Nascent Soul Law. And the big bugs of this planet are obviously also the path of the Nascent Soul Law…
very strange.
After going through the downhill of Lianxu, a line of bugs separated. A cultivator of the Core Formation stage left behind with a few cultivators of the Foundation Establishment stage, and most of the bugs went deeper. Soon, they came to a huge pothole. The pothole went straight up and down, almost bottomless. If it is in Shenzhou, this depth is enough to see magma. But Wang Qi could only see that the bottom was pitch black, and there was no heat at all.
The only source of light was the faint light of some stars on the cliff.
The worm at the head jumped down, and the worms behind also fell.
After entering this area, Wang Qi discovered that those “spotted lights” were not actually “spots of light”, but a large area, but they were too far from the entrance of the cave.
There will be a hole in the cliff every hundreds of meters and thousands of meters, exposing a section of the area. These areas ranged from large to small. The big Wang Qi couldn’t sense the borders for a while. It was bigger than some big countries, and the small ones couldn’t even hold a town.
However, at the first 20,000 meters, Wang Qi could not feel much upgrade at all. In those large and small areas, there are not many creatures at all. Apart from a small number of big bugs with low cultivation bases who can only undertake chores tasks, there are only a large number of rooms made of metal materials or unmaintained magical instruments. It seems that this should be a storage area.
For the Lauders, “space” is an over-abundant resource. After the planet’s ground fire is exhausted and the planet’s elemental magnetism disappears, there will be too much space to use up. Anaerobic bacteria are already the only ones they can “farm” on a large scale [planting? 】s things. The organic matter obtained on the basis of anaerobic bacteria, at most, a small amount of animals and plants are cultivated and used as a nutritional supplement for training consumption and daily diet, and barely allow themselves to survive.
As for expanding the scale of planting, this planet can no longer afford more creatures.
They don’t need much space to accommodate the “biosphere” at all, and even the civilization itself needs to strictly limit its number.
The war with Citrine Land is, for Lauder, a means of cleaning up the population, right?
Because the group also brought some foundation-building cultivators. Even if it is absolutely safe here and you can open your wings, the degraded innate flying ability of the Lauder family and the lift provided by the general ancient foundation-building period are not enough for them to fly unrestricted.
A line of insects even stopped and rested several times during the descent.
As the depth increases, the temperature begins to decrease gradually.
And after about a thousand kilometers, the luminous bodies on the cliffs gradually approached. After going down for a long time, Wang Qi finally felt that he had jumped a limit.
A layer of spiritual circles is built on top of the boundaries of this layer. It seems to divide two worlds.
After Wang Qi crossed this layer, he felt that this physical body suddenly became active.
The oxygen content in the air suddenly increased…
Wang Qi made this judgment.
Dragons are aquatic races. Although they do not necessarily need water to survive, they will feel more comfortable in the sea in their hometown.
Organisms that need to breathe feel refreshed in areas with higher oxygen levels, and it’s pretty much the same thing.
As the oxygen content increased, the temperature also began to rise.
After continuing to descend a thousand meters, Wang Qi finally felt a huge vitality.
No doubt, this is a massive swarm.
And Wang Qi finally saw the true colors of those reflective lifts.
They are some kind of fungi, symbiotic with anaerobic bacteria, attached to the rock wall, and rely on the minerals of the rock wall to survive. In the process of descending, Wang Qi even saw some big bugs who had cultivated in the elixir formation stage smearing a strong odorous liquid on these light-emitting bacteria groups, which was a mineral salt solution mixed with anaerobic bacteria.
During this section of the road, Wang Qi was separated from the other big bugs. For some reason, when the road was halfway through, the group of foundation-building cultivators had already left and headed for a fault.
The other big bugs in the pill formation stage took Wang Qi all the way down and continued to descend.
However, Wang Qi felt something was wrong.
First of all, the magic circle that blocks the air circulation up and down in the big void.
Oxygen itself is a precious resource on this planet. And according to the observation results of those expeditionary envoys, if it weren’t for the existence of a large number of ice meteors on this planet, which often fell on the unknown planet, the unknown planet would have lost its last vitality long ago. And this little bit of oxygen may also be decomposed with not much water. According to common sense, it is not difficult to understand that the upper and lower are completely blocked.
But from the point of view of this species… this is… very strange.
The only known way of communication for this species is the “glossy language”. And the only viable route for this language to spread is through “airflow.”
This method of blocking the upper and lower air circulation undoubtedly isolates the upper and lower communication. For the herd species, this is equivalent to giving up part of their own thinking and mana, and cutting off the possibility of “recovery”.
And this straight up and down fellow should be the shortest path to the top. Even if the beast species wants to keep a communication channel, there is no reason to seal this shortest path and keep the other twists and turns.
Inference 1: It may have opened a relatively narrow channel in addition.
Inference 2; that array can accurately distinguish between oxygen molecules and lutein.
Wang Qi first ruled out the second inference. If you make a net and fix the size of the mesh, you can ensure that “the cross-section smaller than the mesh can pass through, but the larger one cannot pass through”, but if you want to conversely say, “the big one can pass through, but the small one cannot pass through”, then you need a certain amount of time. technology.
Especially this one involving the molecular level.
This is equivalent to arranging a layer of screening array with a recognition accuracy approximately equal to the cell membrane on a plane with a radius of nearly 100 meters.
As far as the spells displayed by these big bugs, the immortal technology level of this civilization… Wang Qi is really not optimistic.
The second discovery made Wang Qi feel a little weird.
Those glowing fungi formed a specific pattern on the wall, although it was a bit like a talisman, but it had no magical effect.
Shenzhou talismans are based on the Chinese characters, but not all civilizations’ talismans have linguistic meanings, and not all languages are natural or can have magical meanings after processing.
The symbols represented by the glowing moss, Wang Qi could even guess, were hexadecimal numbers.
This made Wang Qi very surprised.
Because, the herd species that communicate in the luteolin language have never used the habit of writing. In other words, “Lingxin” itself has the “immediacy” of language and the “preservability” of words. If they want to record something, they just need to leave a specific lutein. And if it is a routine thing, there is no need to communicate in words within the herd, and it can be done only by its own memory.
Including the remnants of the celestial family, almost all large-scale beast species that communicate in Lingxisu language have never developed “writing” on their own. And those celestial relatives of the beast species later developed writing, mostly to deal with the two shortcomings of “Lingxin language is too autistic, and the speed of change in Lingxin language itself is difficult to keep up with the development of things”.
A herd species that has never left its home planet does not need words.
Not to mention numbers.
There is no concept of “digital” in the herd species and the jealous species, let alone “system”?
