Chapter 316: Mystic Civilization
Picking up his phone and looking at the caller ID, Li Wei for the first time felt that not having friends outside was actually a good thing. "Hello, Sister Xiao, why are you calling again? I'm a useless person, the hopeless kind. You should still leave the Spirit Examination Team position for someone with talent. If you really can't find anyone, I can introduce someone to you… I know one person who used to be in the Hundred Schools Tournament, with Thunder Spiritual Root. If he hadn't been kidnapped by bad guys during the competition, he would definitely have been the champion."
"Since our last call, I've been thinking about it for a long time."
Xiao Qingling's voice was serious, "Our Spirit Examination Team's founder said that in the archeology profession, you dig wherever you go, and talent is not important. If you have good luck and dig up an ancient senior, your life will be changed. Li Wei, you are a good kid, don't ever give up on yourself."
You think your founder is Li Tianyi or something?
Li Wei rolled his eyes and pondered how to decline.
"Boom!"
A violent sound. Li Wei's expression changed drastically, and he hurried to go outside. He even sensed a powerful aura in the sky!
When he went out the door, Yuexian also had a solemn expression. The two of them walked outside, and saw that all the big figures in the villa area had already come out. The ground was violently shaking. They all raised their heads to look at the sky. The high sky was dyed red, and violent energy fluctuations rippled in the sky. Meteorites broke through Earth's clouds, and a giant planet approached outside of Earth.
Not long after, these meteorites suddenly scattered in the sky. One of the meteorites was heading towards the villa area!
Li Wei had never seen such a scene in his entire life. He was completely stunned by what he saw.
"Hey! Li Wei, don't... don't come... You... stay safely at home... be careful..."
The phone call was intermittent and then cut off abruptly.
In the sky over California, the voice transmission of a powerful cultivator resounded!
"Fellow Daoists of California, the Mystic Civilization is attacking! Follow me to fight!"
"Fuck..."
Li Wei stared blankly at the sky, completely dumbfounded. A war between civilizations—this was also his first time seeing it. This is fucking... piloting planets to battle.
Beside him, Yuexian seemed to be accustomed to such sights, pulling at the dazed Li Wei, "Master, let's still go inside. The villa area is fine, it's just the Mystic Civilization. They only dare to be so presumptuous because the Earth experts are away. But even so, they are not to be feared."
"Okay."
Li Wei swallowed his saliva. When he turned around to go back, he saw Granny Ling from next door coming out of her house. This old lady's aura was constantly rising—Nascent Soul, and even higher!
She smiled at Li Wei, then instantly disappeared from where she stood!
When Li Wei turned his head back in astonishment, the sky seemed to be putting on a splendid fireworks show, as the meteorites shattered.
More and more experts from the villa area soared into the sky, engaging in battle!
"Holy shit..."
When Li Wei went back inside, he was still dumbfounded. Everything had happened too fast. As they say, the sky falls and the tall ones hold it up. He was certain that an unimaginable great war had already broken out beyond Earth, yet he was still able to remain safe and sound.
"Geez, better just play games."
"Earth is fucking awesome, how long has its civilization existed? It's already able to fight interstellar wars."
"No, I have to work hard at gaming, otherwise, with my puny Nascent Soul cultivation, wouldn't I just die if I went outside?"
Li Wei stared at the computer screen, his face pale.
.....
At this moment.
"Boom!"
The meteorites shattered. The big figures of the villa area, led by Granny Ling, gathered in the sky. In an instant, Granny Ling's body was surrounded by golden metallic liquid, and her figure reached a height of a hundred meters!
"Not bad, Old Woman Ling. It's been two hundred years since I last saw you actually fight, your Spirit Puppet Technique has improved again."
Hearing this, Granny Ling snorted coldly and looked towards the man holding a heavenly scripture scroll and wearing ancient scholar robes, "Scholar, you're not bad either. You've cultivated the Four Seasons Scripture and the Rivers Scripture to a profound level. No wonder you can live in Cave Dwelling Number Nine. Do you dare to go with me to charge into the Mystic Civilization and fight?"
The Scholar scoffed, "What would I dare not do? Ancient records state that the Mystic Civilization was transformed from the Wu Tribe. Back then, the Wu Tribe was defeated so miserably by my ancestor, who obtained the lineage of Mystical techniques, that they fled with their tails between their legs. Would I be afraid of their descendants?"
"Stop arguing."
A cultivator who was blindfolded with a narrow strip of black cloth and carried an ancient sword on his back snorted coldly, "We of this generation uphold meritorious deeds. From the day our lineage awakens, we are taught and instructed to protect our homeland with our lives, generation after generation. You have cultivated to this point, it is not for you to compete for strength and engage in pointless fighting. Follow me into the vast sky, kill the Great Mystic Master of the Mystic Civilization, and leave the rest to the other Fellow Daoists of Earth!"
"Alright!"
Granny Ling and the Scholar dared not say more. They transformed into streaks of light and soared into the sky.
The gatekeeper of the villa area, Old Chen, raised his head and looked at the sky. A trace of nostalgia appeared in his eyes, but he remained unmoved, murmuring in a low voice, "Another day of boiling blood, just as blood-boiling as in my memories of my previous life."
As he spoke, Old Chen sighed deeply, "If those people from my previous life were still here, let alone meteorites smashing onto our homeland, even if they dared to have such a thought, their ten clans would have been exterminated. Ah, where have you all gone?"
...
On the sea.
The Spirit Examination Team, who were in the midst of a rescue excavation of an underwater heritage site, also faced this situation. Their situation was even more difficult—meteorites, tsunamis!
"It's over, Sister Xiao, it's finished!"
"Where are our people?!"
"Sister Xiao, what should we do now?"
Various technological formations were protecting the spirit boat, but even so, the meteorites in the sky were so overwhelmingly oppressive. They were facing more than a dozen meteorites!
Xiao Qingling, who had just hung up the phone, had a deathly pale face. How could she still care about Li Wei? How could she still care about the lost boy?
Just at this moment.
Everyone looked up towards the deck of the ship, all of them completely dumbfounded.
"Boom!"
Inside the spirit boat, the coffin that had been excavated from the heritage site and sealed with various talismans for who knows how many years, suddenly burst open!
Deathly aura surged from the coffin!
"Noisy… you've… awakened me."
"Whoosh!"
A gale swept through. Xiao Qingling stared in terror at the scene before her. Blood sprayed in mid-air. Her Spirit Examination Team members were being…
blood drained!
It was a little Lolita, wearing a dress of pale cyan, withered and gaunt all over. Her hair was styled in two buns, adorned with bells. Even amidst the storm, the bells jingled loudly. As she devoured blood, veins began to undulate, and her body was visibly recovering at a speed that could be seen with the naked eye!
Subsequently, this zombie reached out her hand, and a dozen streams of black mist formed into a giant dragon, soaring towards the meteorites that were about to fall. Brilliant fireworks bloomed across the sky.
The Lolita tilted her head, blood flowing down her still bark-like lips. She looked at the petrified Xiao Qingling before her and asked, "What year is it today?"
Xiao Qingling trembled and stammered, "3… 3014."
The little Lolita calculated for a moment, then slightly nodded, "I don't quite understand your dating system, but it seems I've woken up a bit too early. Master and the others have not yet awakened."
Then, She stared intently at those planets approaching Earth in the sky, her scarlet eyes glowing, and licked her lips.
"The taste is a bit familiar, hmm? No, only a trace of Wu Tribe bloodline, hahaha, back then I didn't let you exterminate your race and lineage, but this time I will kill you all off completely, all of you are my nourishment, all of you!!!"
Xiao Qingling stood blankly on the spirit boat, gazing at the terrifying being flying into the sky, unable to regain her senses for a long time.
She murmured subconsciously.
"How is it possible? How could existences from previous epochs actually revive?"
"What master? What awakening?"
"What on earth have I dug up!!!"
Ominous, too ominous!
