Saying a raft, Ding Huan is actually found a piece of more than a meter long wood board has can stand on the place to make use of.
This thing is light and convenient, as long as one exhales their true essence with the feet, the board will swiftly advance.
For Ding Huan, this is much more convenient than a small boat.
When arriving at the protection wall, what surprised Ding Huan was that there were still ferocious beasts rushing towards the frontline.
Is this suicide?
Just like Ding Huan thought, these beasts had not yet reached the feet of the steel protection wall when they were all killed by federal soldiers.
This is not normal. Beasts are intelligent, how could they come to die?
Ding Huan was quite puzzled; there had to be something going on.
While Ding Huan was thinking of finding someone to ask, he turned back to see a woman in federal military uniform quickly approaching him.
Ding Huan recognized this woman, named Fan Yibing, from the Federal Army. She was carrying a huge spear that was about ten feet long.
Ding Huan didn't know about her other identity, but this woman, who had promised to provide the materials for a long spear, should have some status.
Ding Huan's gaze fell on the long spear in Fan Yibing's hand. He thought, could this woman's weapon be a long spear? It was somewhat similar to the long spear he had wanted.
“Ding teacher, are you planning to leave here now to search for the demonic dragon?”
Fan Yibing asked quickly.
Ding Huan nodded.
“Yes, I am planning to go down and take a look. The chances of finding it don't seem very high.”
Fan Yibing said immediately:
“Ding teacher, I used to be the seventh army commander of the Federal Army. Now I am the temporary commander of the human corridor defense line and also its temporary commander.”
Ding Huan understood, this woman must have taken over from Guo Zhong.
Thinking of the previous commander-in-chief of the Federal Army, Hu Jiatai, Ding Huan felt that not everyone was like Guo Zhong.
Fan Yibing dared to agree to his request, indicating that this woman was very concerned about the human corridor defense line and even about the future of Earth.
Someone like this is much better than Guo Zhong as commander-in-chief.
"Commander Fan, is there something you wish to say by calling me over?" Ding Huan asked.
Fan Yibing nodded.
“Ding teacher, I suspect that there will be another beast tide coming soon.
And it will be led by that demon dragon, I'm about ninety percent sure.”
“Oh, let me hear your thoughts.”
Ding Huan was immediately interested.
Fan Yibing explained:
“After the first breach of the human corridor defense line, there were very few beasts staying here.
“Since this place is entirely made of steel, beasts cannot stay here to cultivate or obtain supplies in the forests.”
Ding Huan didn't interrupt; that was quite normal. Beasts aren't stupid; they wouldn't stay on a steel wall.
Fan Yibing's statement must have a reason.
Fan Yibing continued:
“But after the second construction of the human corridor defense line by our Federal Army, everything began to change.”
“The first day was okay, but on the second day, more than ten beasts came to rush the line and die. On the third day, there were over a hundred beasts, and now more than a thousand beasts are rushing.”
I suspect these beasts are being commanded by great ferocious beasts, with the purpose of probing the true strength of the human corridor defense line.
Therefore, I believe that within one week, there will definitely be a large-scale beast tide, and it may even be stronger than the first one.”
Ding Huan watched the beasts being killed below, and he thought Fan Yibing was right.
He had just been puzzled as to why the beasts were coming to die.
"You're right. If that's the case, I won't go down today. I'll wait here."
Ding Huan agreed with Fan Yibing's words.
Searching for the demonic dragon, his chances are not big, or even close to none.
Just like if he hides, the demonic dragon won't be able to find him either.
Seeing Ding Huan agree with her words, Fan Yibing was quite pleased:
“Ding teacher, twelve years ago, a piece of extraterrestrial iron fell in the desert.”
Later, this meteorite was collected by the International Museum. This meteorite should be a top-grade material for refining weapons, but it's hard to smelt.
If teacher Ding wants it, I can have someone deliver it here."
Ding Huan was overjoyed:
“Alright, I'll take it. Please help me transport it."
Before obtaining the Xuemispace, Ding Huan dared not say.
Now that he has the Xuemispace, if he really can't refine it into a long spear, he would first throw it into the Xuemispace to think about it later.
"The long spear is one that Hu General found in a ruin, and I saw that you currently don't have any weapons, so I'll give it to you for the meantime."
Fan Yibing handed the long spear in her hand to Ding Huan.
After a brief exchange, Fan Yibing felt that Ding Huan was not as hard to talk to as Zhong Chaoben had said.
On the contrary, he was easy to talk to.
As long as Ding Huan stays here, it is unlikely that the human corridor defense line will be breached this time.
Ding Huan's strength is definitely the strongest she has ever seen, without a doubt.
If even Ding Huan couldn't defeat the demonic dragon, it can be said that Earth's qi fortune has arrived, and if humanity is to perish, so be it.
Because dealing with such a demonic dragon is essentially laughable when using nuclear bombs.
Ding Huan didn't expect that Fan Yibing's long spear was for him, so he quickly took it and thanked her:
"Thank you so much. This is very useful to me, as I was in dire need of a weapon."
Fan Yibing, seeing that Ding Huan accepted the offer, let out a sigh of relief:
"Okay, teacher Ding, I'll arrange a place for you to stay over here."
Ding Huan had accepted the weapon, and he certainly wouldn't randomly leave.
"No need, I'll train on my Blue Star. I can see when the defense line is in urgent need. You can rest assured that what I promise, I will not break my word."
Ding Huan pointed to the Blue Star in the distance. He knew that Fan Yibing was worried about something.
Don't say that Fan Yibing gave him a long spear, even if she didn't give it, Ding Huan wouldn't just let the demonic dragon go.
Watching Ding Huan walking towards the Blue Star, Fan Yibing thought to herself, Teacher Ding still cares about Earth. Even his own battleship is named Blue Star.
Moreover, the Blue Star is located on the steel wall of the human corridor defense line. Any beast tide, Teacher Ding will be the first to notice it.
……
"Ding big brother, I want to leave the defense line and go back to Yanjing. I'm coming to say goodbye."
Before Ding Huan could return to the Blue Star, he encountered Liu Ayi who was rushing over.
Ding Huan had intended to help Liu Ayi, but had been very busy before. Now that Liu Ayi had come over, it was the perfect opportunity:
"Liu Ayi, wait for two days before leaving. I plan to make a special gene-enhancing potion for you to boost your cultivation potential."
Liu Ayi was hit by the huge surprise and felt a bit dizzy.
Who doesn't know that students of Teacher Ding Huan have a promising future? To have the chance to become a student of Ding Huan is like a dream come true.
"Thank you, I never expected that one day I could become your student." Liu Ayi was overjoyed.
Ding Huan smiled:
"I won't take you as a student, we'll just be friends."
"Give me a little brainstorming, and I'll go find some herbs. I need to make some gene-enhancing potions as well."
Ding Huan originally intended to go first and find out the whereabouts of the demonic dragon, then return to create gene-enhancing mist.
Since Fan Yibing judged that the demonic dragon would come to attack actively, let's make gene-enhancing potions first and help Liu Ayi at the same time.
……
The human corridor defense line is already located in the primeval forest, and now that Ding Huan is going out to look for herbs, the resources are much richer than those in Qianluo Mountain.
Just two hours later, Ding Huan returned to the gene laboratory of the human corridor defense line with enough herbs.
Liu Ayi had already been eagerly waiting at the gene laboratory.
Ding Huan spent only half a day helping Liu Ayi make the gene-enhancing potion.
When Liu Ayi went to integrate the gene potion, Ding Huan also began making the gene mist to kill beasts.
The gene mist, once made, should be kept in reserve. If the situation turns against it, there is no alternative but to use the gene mist.
After a day, Liu Ayi returned to the Safety Bureau headquarters.
She pretended to be very calm on the surface, but anyone could see from her actions that she was far from calm.
Even after returning to the Safety Bureau headquarters, she still felt like she was in a dream.
Ding Huan not only helped her integrate the gene potion but also taught her the Qianluo gene formula and four spells.
In addition, he also sent her one hundred blooming god's crystal stones.
And he instructed her to return to Yanjing immediately after integrating the gene, to begin her cultivation.
The human corridor defense line is not a place she can stay.
Ding Huan didn't have to remind her. Even without his reminder, Liu Ayi also didn't plan to stay here any longer.
Although she has always been cheerful and never fought with anyone,
Whatever the circumstances, she remains a humble leaf, while the flowers are always someone else's.
But who would want to be a leaf when they're a girl? She also yearned to become the flower in that cluster of leaves.
From today on, perhaps her dreams will all come true.
Thank you, Ding Huan!
While Liu Ayi was following the fighter jet of the Safety Bureau back to Yanjing, Ding Huan returned to the Blue Star.
"Ding big brother, you're back?"
Qu Y saw Ding Huan return after just a day and was very surprised.
When she first arrived on the Blue Star, she was stunned by the massive amount of blooming god's crystal stones piled up on board.
Those people attacked her and senior Zhong for just a few hundred blooming god's crystal stones, yet there were mountains of them here.
If those people knew that, they would probably go crazy.
"Fan General has said that there may be a beast tide here in a few days. The demonic dragon is most likely to follow the beast tide and attack the defense line. I might as well wait here." Ding Huan explained.
Afterwards, Ding Huan added:
"Yi Yi, take some blooming god's crystal stones with you and Xinyue to practice in the living quarters on the Blue Star. I'll first tidy up here."
"Big brother Ding, I still have some crystal stones on me." Qu Y quickly said.
The previous four hundred blooming god's crystal stones were not wanted by anyone, and they had long been returned to her.
"Okay."
Ding Huan didn't mind either. Qu Y could definitely become a ninth-level gene master with the four hundred blooming god's crystal stones.
After Qu Yi and Qi Xinyue went to practice, Ding Huan also found a living quarters. He wanted to copy down all the contents of some bamboo slips from his Xuemispace.
This was nothing difficult for Ding Huan.
The array patterns on the Xuemispace stone had been ground off by him, and his divine mind could clearly see the contents inside the bamboo slips.
Ding Huan was quickly drawn into the content of the bamboo slips.
Such as "Shenzhou Journey," "Honghuan Records," "Attack and Defense of Water Elemental Treasures," and "Initial Understanding of Runes"……
As he copied, Ding Huan absorbed some of the ancient Taoist knowledge system with great effort, until he came across the "Initial Understanding of Runes."
When he began to study the content within, it felt like a window that had never been opened before was now open to him.
From this, he understood the power of runes and marveled at the greatness of the ancestor who created them.
The Hidden Rune can make a person invisible, which is much more powerful than the Invisibility Technique.
The Soil-Dwelling Rune can allow a person to walk on earth like it's flat terrain.
Water Avoidance Rune, Wind Blade Rune, Fireball Rune, Demondriving Rune, Small Spring Rain Rune……
Here, Ding Huan saw tens of thousands of runes, with none he couldn't see and only those he couldn't think of.
When Ding Huan saw the methods of creating runes, he almost held his breath.
This was something he was fascinated by, and also something he longed to learn.
"In the introduction of Tao symbols, I have already explained the formation and method of carving, as well as the materials used for creating them. Today, I will explain the basic composition of runes..."
Ding Huan was stunned.
The formation of runes? How would he know that?
Yes, that's right. As written in the Tao symbols. This should be Tao symbols 2.0.
Ding Huan's divine mind fell on the bamboo slip cover, and he indeed saw three characters - Tao symbols 2.0.
Please, please let there be Tao symbols 1.0 as well. Ding Huan almost made a prayer with his hands.
Ding Huan's divine mind carefully searched over these bamboo slips, but to his great disappointment, he did not find Tao symbols 1.0.
Ding Huan's excitement quickly faded as he sighed. He could only pick up his pen and carefully record Tao symbols 2.0.
Even though Ding Huan was also aware that after all these years, unless he found the original author, obtaining Tao symbols 1.0 was a mere possibility.
Ding Huan decided that after he finished with this matter, he would go to the Kunlun Mountains again and search carefully there.
What if he finds it?
One bamboo slip after another was copied down by Ding Huan.
Ding Huan copied down the content of all the bamboo slips one by one, spending three days in total.
Besides the Tao symbols 2.0, most of them were introductions to scenery, culture, oddities, and so on.
These texts were also extremely useful to Ding Huan, at least allowing him to understand the state of life that the ancient immortals and gods lived in.
In the future, if he wanted to become a strong one and leave Earth, he had to follow the footprints of these predecessors and keep moving forward.
Once he enters the vast universe.
He might not even find the footsteps of these immortals who left Earth before him, and he didn't care.
With his wishes fulfilled on Earth, he will finally do some things that he has always wanted to do.
Find the place where the ancient immortals are located and become a member of them.
What secrets does the vast universe hide? Is it like many people on Earth speculate, that they are merely a string of characters?
Or is it as some records on Changyi Continent speculate, that they are merely abandoned corners by the gods?
No matter which conjecture is true, no matter whether these conjectures are correct or not, he has been eager to know them in both his past and present lives.
No one has told him the answer, so he will have to find it himself.
As long as he doesn't die, and as long as his strength keeps improving, one day he will unveil this secret.
(That's all for today's update, friends, good night! And still, I ask for your votes!)
