Chapter 135: Discovery of the Yuan Crystal Stone Vein!

After Xia Yan took the two away, Gu Fan sat alone, silently contemplating for a while.

He had been pondering one particular question—were cultivators in the world of cultivation truly stronger than those from a technological civilization?

Leaving other aspects aside, just nuclear bombs and hydrogen bombs alone—if they could hit a True Yang Realm cultivator—they would definitely cause severe injuries or even death.

And this was just considering the current level of technology. If the apocalypse had never broken out, and technological civilization had continued to develop, even more terrifying technological weapons could have emerged.

It was entirely possible that in the future, humanity might leave Earth and begin harnessing the resources and energies of the universe to create even more formidable weapons.

Planet-destroying cannons, interstellar battleships—although they sounded like science fiction, that didn’t mean they were impossible.

Under such circumstances, cultivators might not dare to claim superiority over a technological civilization!

That was why Gu Fan, as a traveler between two worlds, wondered—besides utilizing the special advantage of zombies carrying Living Souls, and the advantage of the time difference, was there any other edge he could leverage?

After thinking for a long time, it became clear: the distinct types of civilization between the two worlds.

What if technology and cultivation could be combined—could something entirely new emerge from their collision?

Of course, he wasn’t going to get distracted and dive fully into this pursuit. What he needed to do was fuse the advantages of both worlds into something that would give him the strength to survive this period.

Therefore, he now wanted to test whether he could create a super nuclear weapon for the cultivation world!

Compared to the energy released from uranium, Spiritual Power was undoubtedly stronger, and potentially more destructive!

Just imagine—if Gu Fan truly succeeded in this plan—

He would have more trump cards in the cultivation world.

Can't win?

No problem. He’d just activate a Spiritual Power nuclear bomb—when it exploded, thousands of li around would be reduced to ashes!

Such power was definitely beyond the capacity of a Yang Spirit Realm expert to resolve!

At this thought, Gu Fan’s heart surged with excitement, and he decided to give it a try.

Those two Scientific Researchers, under the condition that he provided sufficient materials, were to develop a Spiritual Power nuclear weapon based on the principles of nuclear weaponry!

"Spiritual Power nuclear weapon... just the name sounds powerful! I just wonder whether it could blow a Yang Spirit Realm expert to bits!"

"If it can, I swear I’ll bury a dozen under Holy Son Peak. When the time comes, the Holy Son won't even know what hit him, hehe!"

Gu Fan chuckled, then his figure moved and vanished from the spot, leaving behind only a note.

When Xia Yan returned and saw the message, she merely curled her lips. Gu Fan had instructed her to inform the people from the northern and western parts of the city that if they truly wished to visit him, they should come in ten days.

He would return punctually by then!

"Seriously, just leaves like that without a word."

Xia Yan muttered to herself, then quickly summoned someone to inform the leaders of the northern and western districts.

On the other side, Gu Fan reappeared—this time inside the rift of the cultivation world.

Gazing at the gloomy, darkened sky, Gu Fan felt that even the zombie world looked more pleasant.

Just as he arrived in this world, deafening battle cries from not far away instantly caught his attention.

His Divine Sense swept outward rapidly and quickly detected three groups engaged in fierce combat. One of the groups didn’t appear to be cultivators from the Destiny World—it must be people from the Void Sacred Realm.

Behind the chaotic clash of the three groups, there was surprisingly a cave entrance. From within the cave, seven-colored and even nine-colored Spiritual Power drifted out intermittently.

The sight was scattered, yet deeply intriguing!

Gu Fan’s expression changed slightly as he immediately formed a guess in his heart.

"Could it be... a Yuan Crystal Stone vein has been discovered? Judging from the aura, could this be Seven-colored Yuan Crystal Stone or even Nine-colored Yuan Crystal Stone?"

Gu Fan drew in a sharp breath. If what he suspected turned out to be true, then this would be an unimaginable fortune.

No wonder this group was fighting so fiercely—some had even already been killed, their corpses falling to the ground.

If it truly was Nine-colored Yuan Crystal Stone, then it would be a blessing from the heavens beyond imagination!

“This is wealth descending upon me, even if I tried I couldn’t avoid it. If I don’t give it a shot, I’d be letting down the heavens!”

Gu Fan moved swiftly toward the battlefield, simultaneously concealing his aura to the utmost degree. At this moment, he was like a fish in the void.

He only left behind faint ripples in space—if one wasn’t paying attention, they would not detect him at all.

This was a benefit he discovered after swallowing the second lotus seed—it actually helped him conceal himself. Coupled with the powerful battle buff of magic immunity, it was simply the pinnacle of stealth!

Moments later, he arrived at the site of the fierce battle.

Within his line of sight appeared three forces. One group belonged to the Gu Family, an ancient aristocratic clan and one of the four great powers of Destiny World!

However, the leader was someone he didn’t recognize—most likely one who had become separated from the main group.

On the other side were a group of female cultivators from Sacred Land Yaochi. Don’t be fooled by the fact they were all women—their attacks were even more ruthless than those of male cultivators!

These two sides currently seemed to be joining forces against a common enemy, but they still remained wary of each other.

Opposing them was a group of humanoid creatures with black skin all over their bodies, bone armor protruding from their elbows and other areas.

At this point, the battle had reached a fever pitch. The strongest among both sides were all at the late stage of the True Yang Realm.

The remaining disciples were also engaged in fierce skirmishes. However, they couldn’t hold out for long, as the forces from the Void Sacred Realm had superior numbers and were gradually gaining the upper hand.

Seeing this, Gu Fan had no intention of stepping in to help.

From his past experience with those from Pure Radiance God Sect, Gu Fan had learned that within the rift, it was best to mind his own business.

Otherwise, he might end up being stabbed in the back.

Right now, he was carefully and slowly inching toward the cave entrance, using the time while everyone was desperately fighting.

As long as the battle didn’t end too quickly, he would have a chance to make a move and steal everything from right under their noses.

Regardless of who won or lost—when they found out, they would be so furious they’d probably cough up blood!

And so, using the powerful concealment ability of his aura, Gu Fan crept closer and closer to the cave entrance.

After a short while, he finally reached the mouth of the cave. Reaching out, he tested it—there were no restrictions laid down, which meant entering wouldn’t alert anyone.

In the next moment, his figure flashed and he slipped into the cave.

As soon as Gu Fan entered, his breath caught in his throat!

It wasn’t because he had encountered danger, but because the concentration of Spiritual Power inside was so dense it was absurd!

The instant he stepped in, he almost thought he had taken a huge gulp of Spiritual Liquid!

There was definitely a Yuan Crystal Stone vein in here!

Gu Fan secretly rejoiced in his heart and immediately started to explore further inside.

Judging by his observations, he should be the first person to enter in recent times.

Most likely, the three groups outside hadn’t even had time to investigate before they started fighting.

Now, Gu Fan was reaping the benefits.

After walking forward for about a li, Gu Fan clearly felt the Spiritual Power in the air grow even denser.

It felt as if he was soaking in a vat of Spiritual Energy.

If he had the time, he would have sat down right there to absorb the scattered energy.

However, Gu Fan wasn’t in a hurry—he knew this was just an appetizer. The real feast was still ahead!
