I created an extraordinary era

Chapter 474 Breakthrough in the Water Realm, Finally Arriving at Mars

Looking at the expectant eyes of everyone, Xia Yuan nodded helplessly.

"Let's go then!"

He raised his hand and waved.

A current of air instantly condensed in the void, enveloping everyone.

next moment.

Xia Yuan then led several figures downwards.

"Is this the power that comes from mastering the laws of heaven and earth?"

Feeling his body bound by the airflow, Nangong Hong's eyes flickered.

Suddenly, he asked curiously:
"Ancestor, can Ji Xuan's understanding of the wind essence also be used to unleash your kind of ability?"

Xia Yuan smiled and nodded.

"My method of creating wind from nothingness is essentially also a manifestation of the essence of wind!"

"It's just that it's on a slightly higher level."

"As long as Ji Xuan can cultivate to the point of mastering the laws, then he can naturally do it!"

Everyone's faces immediately showed longing.

They also wanted to grasp the essence of the text.

Unfortunately, there has been little progress so far.

The ability to grasp the essence of a concept is not only related to physical strength.

It is also related to the speed of cultivation.

If one is a practitioner of the laws of nature, then one must first understand the essence of artistic conception.

Otherwise, one will be stuck in the mortal realm for the rest of one's life.

Even in martial arts and Li Qingxuan's Yin-Yang Dao, comprehending the essence of the art can greatly aid in cultivation.

Therefore, understanding the artistic conception is of great importance to everyone.

Just then, Xia Yuan looked at someone in the crowd and asked:
"Yuan Liren, I see that you seem to have gained some insight. Have you already touched the threshold of artistic conception?"

As soon as these words came out.

Everyone was stunned.

The next moment, nine gazes fell upon him.

Gen Reijin nodded and did not hide anything.

"Returning to the Origin Ancestor, I have indeed gained some insights during this period!"

"It just seems there's always been a barrier between us that we can't break through."

Upon hearing this definitive answer, the expressions of everyone present changed.

Damn it, nobody has figured it out yet.

So you're the one getting special treatment here?

"If I'm not mistaken, the direction you're trying to grasp is the essence of water, right?"

"Exactly!"

Xia Yuan smiled.

Gen Reijin's answer was exactly what he expected.

The reason he was able to guess that the direction of Minamoto no Reijin's enlightenment was the concept of water.

It was because he had just activated a trace of water element that he sensed a familiar fluctuation from the other party.

Otherwise, Xia Yuan wouldn't have been able to guess it.

"I'll explain my understanding of the essence of water to you later. Whether you can break through that barrier is up to you!"

At this point, he looked at the others.

"As for you, you can listen to this as well."

Even if you can't grasp the essence of the concept from this, it should still be of some benefit to you!

Hear this.

A look of joy immediately spread across everyone's faces.

"Thank you, Genzu!"

It should be noted that this was the first time the ancestor had preached the Dharma to them.

This is an opportunity you absolutely cannot miss!

But the one we're most looking forward to the most is undoubtedly Minamoto no Reijin.

After all, he was just one step away from comprehending the essence of water.

If one could hear the ancestor preach, one might break through on the spot.

So even though he is usually taciturn, he couldn't help but feel excited at this moment.

And so it happened in the middle of the conversation.

Xia Yuan has led everyone to a point 30 kilometers underground.

However, because it was completely dark around them, they could only see the scenery within a few meters around them by relying on their senses.

But the next moment.

Several flames suddenly appeared out of thin air all around.

No one was surprised by the flames that suddenly appeared in the vacuum.

After all, the source ancestor had previously demonstrated the power of the fire element.

However, a question arose in everyone's mind.

"Just how many laws of heaven and earth did the Origin Ancestor comprehend?"

First came the wind, then the fire.

Based on what Yuanzu just said, there must still be water!
This is just too outrageous!

But soon, everyone's attention was drawn to the scene before them.

"Holy crap!"

Bai Zhengyu opened his mouth wide and blurted it out.

But at this moment.

No one responded to him through the communicator.

Everyone held their breath.

All around them were metal sheets gleaming with a black luster!

It stretched endlessly, reaching all the way to the horizon.

If nothing unexpected happens, the same scene should be unfolding in the endless darkness in the distance.

Moreover, the area below is indeed a huge hollow.

How exactly did this form?

Wei Lingjun swallowed.

"Those scientists' guesses were actually true?"

Mills muttered to himself.

He couldn't believe that such a scene would exist deep within the moon and stars!
"Was this unexpected?"

Xia Yuan smiled.

"When I first saw it, I had the same expression as you."

In fact, when Xia Yuan saw it before, he was even more shocked than the others were now.

After all, he had seen most of the area.

We also learned what these black metals actually were.

Nangong Hong and his group could only see a very small part of the area in front of them.

This small area is less than one ten-thousandth of the whole picture.
……

After a while.

The group returned to the ground.

However, the group still looked somewhat dazed.

Such a scene was something they could never have imagined on Earth.

"Indeed, only by going into the universe can one see more things!"

"Earth is ultimately just an insignificant planet in the vast universe."

"Strength, all of this requires even greater strength!"

Nangong Hong clenched his fists, a strong desire rising in his heart.

If his current strength were equal to that of the Origin Ancestor, then where wouldn't he be able to go?
Seeing everyone's reaction, Xia Yuan nodded.

Knowing something in advance is a good thing for all of them.

"Let's go, I'll now share my understanding of the Laws of Water with you!"

Upon hearing this, everyone instantly came to their senses.

It's too early to think about other things right now.

For them, listening to the patriarch preach is the most important thing now.

"Water is the softest thing; it can sustain all things and transform all things!"

"And the ultimate softness is strength."

"To understand all this, one must embody the nature of water."

"That is, to resonate with water!"

"I will now demonstrate this to you. Whether you can gain any understanding from it is up to you!"

Xia Yuan didn't waste any more words.

"Alright!"

He raised his hand and waved it, and instantly thousands of water droplets appeared suspended in the air.

next moment.

All the water droplets suddenly coalesced.

It condensed into a high-pressure water blade that slashed across the distant moon rock.

The cut surface of the split stone is as smooth as a mirror.

In a blink of an eye.

The water blade suddenly dissipated into mist, swirling around everyone.

Yuan Liren raised his hand to touch it.

As the mist brushed against his fingertips, he gradually recalled the rhythm he had noticed in the raindrops falling during a previous downpour. Beneath the waterfall, he merged into the water, experiencing a feeling of becoming one with it.

He suddenly laughed.

"So, the essence of water is not about controlling water, but about becoming a part of water!"

next moment.

Yuan Liren's blood and qi surged continuously.

The water droplets suspended around him also began to tremble at the same time.
"Oh, you've grasped it so quickly!"

Seeing this, Xia Yuan couldn't help but nod.

The aura surrounding Yuan Liren fluctuated just like that of Li Qingxuan before.

He wasn't too surprised by this.

You should know that these water mists contain his understanding of the laws of heaven and earth.

It was not unexpected that Gen Reijin would gain some insight.

Xia Yuan simply hadn't expected him to break through so quickly.

Within a moment.

Apart from Gen Reijin, everyone else gradually awoke from their state of enlightenment.

Upon hearing that the other party had already comprehended the Law of Water, everyone looked on with envy.

"After comprehending the laws of water, Yuan Liren's strength is probably no less than that of Nangong Hong, right?"

Previously, Gen Reito's swordsmanship had already reached the level of internal strength.

If we combine it with the concept of water, it would probably be greatly enhanced.

If some time passes, Nangong Hong might not be his match anymore!
Thinking of this, everyone turned their gaze to Nangong Hong, wanting to see what kind of expression he would have.

But Nangong Hong remained calm, seemingly unconcerned.

In fact, he didn't really care.

Because his marksmanship level has reached the mid-stage of internal strength.

Yuan Liren has only just grasped the essence of the art; how could he possibly be my opponent?

Moreover, Nangong Hong never worries about his opponents being stronger than him!
The stronger the opponent, the more it will ignite his fighting spirit.

"Thank you, Genzu!"

A dozen minutes later, Gen Reijin awoke from his reverie.

He bowed solemnly.

Of all the people who learned from Xia Yuan's sermon, Yuan Liren undoubtedly gained the most.

If it weren't for the help of the Origin Ancestor, he wouldn't know how long it would have taken him to break through.

Xia Yuan smiled and waved his hand.

"Given your level of comprehension, even without my help, I estimate it won't be long before you break through."

"Alright, I should go now!"

After exchanging a few words with everyone, Xia Yuan decided not to stay any longer.

His main purpose in coming here was to check on the construction progress of the base.

And now.

The team built the structure even faster than he had imagined.

Although the entire base is still far from being self-sufficient, its construction progress has far exceeded expectations.

At this rate.

In less than ten years, humanity will be able to establish a completely self-sufficient lunar base.

By then, even ordinary people will be able to travel briefly to the moon and stars.

Perhaps when he returns, there will be quite a few people on the moon and stars!
Are you going to travel through the universe?

Jiang Zhe asked curiously.

"That's it!"

Xia Yuan nodded, then smiled and said:

"I may be gone for quite a while this time. I hope that when I return, you will have already broken through to the Unity Realm!"

After saying that, Xia Yuan transformed into a streak of light and vanished instantly into the dark starry sky.

Everyone looked up at the starry sky.

A hint of longing appeared in his eyes.

"I wonder when we'll have the strength to travel through the universe?"

"To travel the universe, you must at least reach the True Spirit Realm!"

"Let's think about when we can start cultivating to the Transcendent Realm!"

"Moreover, breaking through to the Unity Realm is also a threshold!"

"If you can't find a way to transform your spirit into a divine soul, you'll be stuck in the mortal realm for the rest of your life."

Hearing the crowd's discussion, Jiang Zhe shook his head.

"Let's go, it's time for us to go back and continue building the base!"

"There are still eleven months left. I'll try my best to earn more contribution points in this mission."

Everyone nodded.

Right now, contributing points is the most important thing.

Without contributing points, everything is just empty talk.

"Hehe, at our current pace, I estimate I'll get 800 contribution points by then!"

Bai Zhengyu smiled.

Earning 800 contribution points a year and carrying out missions on Earth is practically a given.

Now, as long as the construction speed is fast enough.

Even if the group cannot create their own cultivation techniques, they can still exchange them using contribution points.

Of course, many people still hope to create their own cultivation techniques!
After all, as one of the first geniuses to enter the Origin Academy, who doesn't have a bit of arrogance?

……

the other side.

After leaving the moon and stars.

Xia Yuan then began heading towards Mars at full speed.

Before setting off, he had roughly estimated the time required.

At this point in time, the distance between Mars and Earth is approximately 300 million kilometers.

At his speed, it should take him a year to reach Mars.

"We're still too weak!"

Xia Yuanyao sighed.

Two thousand years is a very long lifespan.

But if he were to travel through the universe with his current strength, he might not be able to get very far in his entire life.

Even if one could reach the speed of light, one still wouldn't be able to travel very far.

Unless one can master the legendary space travel technology.

"I wonder if powerful, extraordinary life forms can achieve spatial travel?"

A hint of curiosity flashed in Xia Yuan's eyes.

His understanding of those above the True Spirit Realm was almost zero.

I have no idea what kind of abilities such a strong person would have.

"Let's focus on cultivating to the True Spirit Realm as soon as possible!"

Shaking his head, Xia Yuan didn't think about it any further.

for the rest of the time.

He sped off into the depths of the starry sky.

I don’t know how long it took.

It might be a month, or two months, or even half a year.

In this boundless starry sky.

Xia Yuan felt as if he was about to lose his sense of time!
A sense of loneliness also arises spontaneously.

"Should be here soon!"

Looking at the remaining energy on the panel, Xia Yuan made a judgment.

According to his estimate, flying to Mars would require approximately 1500 energy points.

Currently, over 1,200 points have already been consumed.

We should be able to reach Mars in three months at most.

After some time again.

The outline of a fiery red planet finally emerged from the dark depths of space.

At first, it was just a blurry orange-red dot at the edge of my field of vision.

But as the flight continued...

The entire planet gradually unfolded before Xia Yuan's eyes.

The dust storm churned up red waves near the equator.

The polar ice caps refracted a pale blue halo.

Although the scenery of the entire planet looked very desolate, it still excited Xia Yuan.

Such a long journey was really getting on his nerves!

Fortunately, we have finally arrived at our destination!
"Mars."

Xia Yuan muttered to himself.

After a while.

He set foot on this land.

I spent a year traveling hundreds of millions of kilometers just to stand here.

Xia Yuan bent down, grabbed a handful of sand, and watched it slowly slip through his fingers.

"I have arrived."

He spoke slowly, facing the vast desert.

The sound echoed softly all around, but no one responded.
