We made you practice martial arts, and you've mastered the Great Golden Body?

Chapter 181 Dongfeng Express, Mission Accomplished
At the moment of entering the gate of rebirth.

Boom~
An invisible pressure from all directions instantly enveloped Shen Bailian's entire body. His expression changed slightly, but he quickly recovered.

The gravity in this Cave Heaven No. 98 is more than twice that on Earth Star.

"No wonder the Cave Heaven World generally doesn't allow martial artists at the Life Establishment Realm to enter." Shen Bailian felt the pressure around him, but he adapted to the environment in just one breath.

It's important to understand that twice the gravity puts far more strain on the body than just twice as much; gravity exerts comprehensive pressure on the body, muscles, bones, flesh, and even cells.

Therefore, a sudden change to twice the gravity puts at least three times the strain on the body, and it is a continuous and stable negative state.

Upon entering the Transcendent Realm, martial artists undergo cellular-level evolution, and their inherent human adaptability is further enhanced.

Moreover, Shen Bailian's physical fitness level has now reached level 19.1, his mental strength level has also reached level 19.1, and he has also mastered the fourth level of martial arts technique, the "Subtle Entry".

Therefore, a change of only two times in gravity is completely insignificant... even a change of three or five times in gravity would not be a problem at all.

However, under the influence of twice the gravity, more energy is required during combat, and more Force is required when flying.

……

Shen Bailian looked at the projection of the main world's sun in the sky. Unlike the two suns in the main world of the Earth Origin Star, there was only one sun here.

It seemed so out of place.

In the distance, the mountains stretch endlessly, covered with lush and verdant forests, displaying a vibrant scene under the sunlight. On the ground, a winding river flows like a long snake, its waters shimmering in the sunlight.

However, the 98th Cave Heaven World, which should have been teeming with ferocious beasts, was now devoid of any trace of them within a radius of dozens of miles, not even a single cry could be heard.

Furthermore, within the winding, meandering water, there seemed to be a trace of unusual crimson, which grew increasingly intense over time.

Shen Bailian took a deep breath. He knew that the ferocious beasts around them had been quickly eliminated by the vanguard troops who had entered first, using high-tech methods.

Otherwise, given the hostility hidden in the bloodline of the ferocious beasts, a conflict would inevitably erupt once they smelled human scent, and the ferocious beasts of Cave Heaven No. 98 were all Ram's spies.

However, although the empty reconnaissance area within a radius of several tens of miles is inconspicuous in the million-square-kilometer Cave Heaven World No. 98, if it is maintained for a long time, it will inevitably be noticed as something is amiss.

"Hello, Shen Bailian." Suddenly, a familiar voice rang in Shen Bailian's ears. It was Yu Hu, the guardian who had previously been in charge of the logistics support unit.

“Okay, I’ll land right away.” Shen Bailian opened his virtual AR smart glasses and then saw the war fortress below, which was in optical cloaking mode and was beginning to take shape.

In fact, he had already seen the war fortress below through the Eye of God when he first entered, but since the entire area was under surveillance, he had to pretend to be aware of it.

"There's no rush." ​​Yu Hu's answer surprised Shen Bailian. He continued through the private channel, "I'd like to ask, is Shen Bailian interested in the Ascension Martial Hall?"

"You mean you want me to join the Ascension Martial Hall?" Shen Bailian frowned slightly, a hint of doubt rising in his heart:
"But I don't have any qualities that could impress you, do I?"

The Ascension Martial Hall is a very special entity in the Great Xia Dynasty. This can be seen from the lofty ideal of "flesh and blood are weak, while machinery ascends." This group of people pursues mechanical ascension.

For this group of people, a 17-year-old at the late stage of the Transcendent Realm probably doesn't mean much.
"No, Mr. Shen's mental strength is already enough to impress us. Based on your past displays of powerful perception, your mental strength must have reached the second level, right?"

Shen Bailian's face showed a look of astonishment, but he quickly realized that it must be the unimaginable detection method of the divine skill [Eye of God] that made the other party misunderstand his mental strength level.

However, Shen Bailian then remained silent, neither admitting nor denying it.

After all, that kind of perception, which is so powerful that it's almost abnormal, is something that even many martial artists with mental strength at the second level cannot easily achieve.

Let the misunderstanding remain; as long as neither admitting nor denying it, Shen Bailian will not suffer any loss.

"Our mental strength level is related to our 'lifespan' and the limits we can withstand. As long as you, Mr. Shen, are willing to join our Ascension Martial Hall, His Majesty the Emperor can promise to create the strongest body for you after your mental strength reaches the third level."

"Who is the emperor?" Shen Bailian asked in confusion.

What an imposing name! To choose such a name in this era clearly demonstrates an extremely strong confidence in one's own abilities.

"Your permissions are insufficient to provide this information at this time. However, if you are willing to join the Ascension Martial Hall, all information can be accessed for you."

"All of them?" Shen Bailian was slightly shocked.

This is truly a grand gesture. For these iron lumps who have ascended to the Martial Hall, information is money, life, and is crucial to their evolution.

"Yes, as long as your mental strength level can break through to the third rank before the age of 22, all the information about the Ascension Martial Hall can be made public to you."

"Let me think about it." Shen Bailian had already landed inside the war base. He looked at the logistics support troops coming and going, pondered for a moment, and originally wanted to refuse directly, but changed his mind before he could finish speaking.

Within the Great Xia Dynasty, the strength of the technology sector is no weaker than that of the martial arts sector. Without the rapid development of high-tech technologies such as medical pods, artificial intelligence, and cave-heaven technology, the development of martial arts would not have been so rapid.

To a certain extent, the technological side is even stronger than the martial arts side.

Nuclear fusion technology has completely solved the energy problem, making energy cheap and turning space-based war bases, war robots, war mechs, energy cannons, electromagnetic confinement cannons, etc., which only existed in fantasy, into reality.

With these technologies, the Great Xia on Earth alone would be enough to start an earth-shattering interstellar war and win.

however.

Once upon a time, there were gods standing high in the heavens on Earth. Now there are weaker gods who are aware of the war potential of human technology, which is why various fields have emerged.

The purpose of these domains is nothing more than to eliminate the powerful external forces that have been exerting influence on humanity.

Therefore, under the dual influence of external forces and a sense of security, coupled with the strong support of the Great Xia Dynasty, the martial arts side replaced the technology side and became the strongest school.

Technology has become an auxiliary tool, helping martial arts develop more rapidly.

After receiving Shen Bailian's ambiguous answer, Yu Hu became more enthusiastic. At least it wasn't a rejection, which meant that this rising star wasn't against the Ascension Martial Hall.

finally.

Guided by Yu Hu, Shen Bailian met up with Yuwen Changkong and arrived at a cave-heaven combat command center spanning several thousand square meters.

Yue Feng, Lei Zhentian, and Cheng Shangwu stood in front of a huge 3D projection, quietly discussing their battle plan.

The 3D projection is a scaled-down version of the terrain of Cave 98, featuring towering mountains and winding rivers. The locations where various ferocious beasts gather have been marked with red dots...

Of course, there are also some black hole regions among them, which are places that have not been detected by nanobots and are likely hidden places of divine favor.

"How are you two feeling?" Yue Feng had already noticed Shen Bailian and Yuwen Changkong, and a faint smile appeared on his face.

Has the captain lost his mind?
Why was he so polite to the two first-year martial arts students, even showing a hint of respect?

The faint, even somewhat distorted smile on Yue Feng's face caused Lone Wolf and Iron Ape to exchange bewildered glances, a sense of doubt arising in their minds.

but.

If Yue Feng knew what Lone Wolf and his companion were thinking, he wouldn't blame them, since they didn't know the whole story. Yue Feng was even starting to regret letting Shen Bailian in.

Because no one can guarantee that it will be 100% safe when exploring the interlayer world of the Earth Yuan Star, if Shen Bailian has even the slightest problem, given the stubbornness of that old man who never regrets dying, even if he has the Great Xia military behind him, he will not be able to avoid a beating.

but.

Yue Feng could only keep this frustration to himself; he certainly wouldn't dare to show it openly, especially since Cheng Shangwu's men were still there.

"Senior Yue," Shen Bailian and Yuwen Changkong immediately responded respectfully.

To become the captain of the Sharp Sword Enforcement Squad and mobilize so many Sea Opening Realm warriors, one's power must be astonishing. Moreover, this is a mezzanine world, so one must naturally respect the other party.

"Alright, now that you two have arrived safely, I'm relieved." After saying that, Yue Feng turned to Cheng Shangwu and Lei Zhentian and asked in a deep voice, "I'll leave the rest of the Divine Blessed Ram to you two."

"it is good."

"No problem. I haven't done it for more than half a year. This is a good opportunity to stretch my muscles."

Lei Zhentian and Cheng Shangwu laughed and readily agreed. Yue Feng had already informed them of the details when they entered the interlayered world.

"Yu Hu, how is the Dongfeng strategic system preparation going?" Yue Feng's expression suddenly turned serious.

"The Dongfeng strategic system has been installed and is currently undergoing debugging and targeting. Remaining time: 10, 9, 8... 3, 2, 1, 0."

"The Dongfeng Express's aiming and testing are complete. Commander Yue Feng, please approve the launch authorization before proceeding with the thorough cleaning operation."

"Dongfeng strategic system? A major cleanup operation?" Shen Bailian felt waves of emotion rising in his heart upon hearing Yue Feng's words.

He had a vague idea in his mind, but he felt that his idea was too shocking.

No way?
Could it really be as simple and brutal as Shen Bailian imagined?

"Is the plasma shield ready to be activated?"

"It can be started now, pending authorization."

"..."

Yue Feng did not hesitate and continued to inquire attentively about the progress of the preparations for the Feather Guard, after all, he was the commander-in-chief here.

In the event of a large-scale accident, even if it means death, he must take responsibility.

After a while~
After all the Dongfeng strategic systems and facilities had been inspected, Yue Feng's heart suddenly tightened, a resolute glint flashed in his eyes, and he issued the authorization confirmation order without hesitation.

The Dongfeng strategic system was activated, and the plasma shield deployed, instantly enveloping the entire war base...

Boom!

With a tremor of the earth, Shen Bailian suddenly heard a series of sharp, sizzling sounds in the air, and he felt the entire war base shaking slightly.

You can see it clearly through the large screen in the middle.

In the stillness of the night, the air around the war base seemed to freeze, with only the sound of the wind in the distance and the occasional chirping of insects.

Suddenly, a blinding red light shone from the depths of the launch silo, instantly shattering the tranquility of the night sky. The red light gradually spread, illuminating the surrounding land and sky, like a sun about to rise.

Immediately afterwards, a deafening roar resounded through the sky, shaking the hearts of everyone in the war base like a thunderbolt.

With a deafening roar, the hydrogen bomb rose from its silo at an astonishing speed.

Like dazzling meteors, they streaked across the night sky, their fiery tails and powerful momentum carrying them as they hurtled toward the red dot on the light screen.

It only took a few seconds.

A small-yield hydrogen bomb was enough to reach a target tens of kilometers away from the war base. It was a pack of powerful silver-armored wolves, the strongest of which, the alpha wolf, had reached the late stage of the third tier in terms of physical attributes.

With its immense defensive power, even ordinary late-stage Sea Opening Realm warriors would find it difficult to contend with it, and it often takes two late-stage Sea Opening Realm warriors to kill it.

however.

The hydrogen bomb exploded with a deafening roar more than 100 meters above the ground. In the instant of the explosion, the body of the Silver Armored Demon Wolf's alpha wolf was instantly reduced to ashes.

The sky seemed to be torn apart, and the blinding light instantly illuminated the entire No. 98 Cave Heaven Small World. The light was so intense that the images on the light screen appeared pale and somewhat distorted.

Followed by.

A deafening roar echoed across the area, and the heat wave from the explosion spread rapidly, engulfing everything in the surrounding area in a sea of ​​fire, instantly turning it to ashes.

The air was filled with the smell of burning, and the oxygen was consumed in an instant, making it suffocating.

After the light, sound, and heat, the shock wave generated by the hydrogen bomb explosion spreads outwards at an astonishing speed, affecting everything within its effective kill range.

All the ferocious beasts, whether second-tier or third-tier, lost their lives in an instant.

In just one second, one hydrogen bomb after another reached their designated positions and then exploded with a deafening roar.

At this moment, the 98th Cave Heaven World was like a place where dazzling suns had been planted, filled with extreme light and heat.

If the war base hadn't already activated its plasma shield, all the warriors here would have been reduced to ashes by the shockwaves from the hydrogen bomb explosions.

Even with plasma shields and nanobots, the image on the central screen of the Cave Heaven combat command center was lost a minute ago, and the outside situation could only be vaguely seen through the window.

Why is it indistinct?

It was simply because it was too bright and too dazzling. Even a martial artist at the Transcendent Realm would find it unbearably blinding when faced with such an extremely bright light.

Therefore, I could only squint my eyes slightly.

"This is the Great Cleanup?!" Shen Bailian observed the ruins outside through the Eye of God, and his heart was filled with shock and utter astonishment.

This is a real war.

At the same time, this also overturned Shen Bailian's preconceived notions from previous trials that a hydrogen bomb with relatively low technological content could unleash such devastating power.

Even so, in the battles on the front lines, the Great Xia was still in a stalemate, and even seemed to be at a disadvantage.

A leopard can be seen in the tube.

This alone is enough to show how fierce the fighting was on the border of the Great Xia Dynasty.
