Volume 2: The Stairway to Heaven (43)

"It's getting harder and harder for people to fool people nowadays - can't you make a simple request? Like turning a stone into gold or something......"

The old man muttered sullenly, his face ugly, as if the old peasant who was bitter and hateful in the old society was facing the old man who came to collect rent. As the manager of this teleportation station, he has been doing his best to maintain this transit station for thousands of years. But more than 20,000 years ago, he suddenly lost contact with Tiangong, and his small station suddenly changed from a state-owned enterprise that did not worry about food and drink to a private enterprise that was self-financing. And this jade slip that Liu Yuxin sent back just now is the energy core that allows his existence to be maintained.

These energy cores were sent to this world by the Giants for various reasons, and became proof that the surface natives were allowed to enter the core territory of the Giants. However, not all indigenous people use it, and some crystals have been preserved as sacred relics for generations. (There are many reasons why you don't use it, and being reluctant to be separated from your family is one of the more common ones.)

In order to survive, the management al has spread a lot of rumors to every corner of the world, and has been maintained by abduction and deception for so many years. But Al itself is also controlled by strict rules, and it is absolutely forbidden to take it by force!

As for Liu Yuxin, who came here and presented crystals to it, it also wanted to take advantage of it, but Liu Yuxin asked questions, one of which it would not answer, and the other could not answer......

After scanning the imprint on Liu Yuxin's body, Al now just wants to send him away as soon as possible!

Liu Yuxin didn't know much about all this, and he thought he had missed something important just now:

"What? What are you talking about? I didn't hear clearly! ”

The old man, who was originally in high spirits, was like a cucumber who had gone to the salt cellar at this time, and he rolled his eyelids weakly:

"It's a big project to reopen the portal, and the teleportation equipment here hasn't been activated for tens of thousands of years, so I have to check them in advance first."

"Overhaul?"

Liu Yuxin looked the entire altar up and down with suspicious eyes, and couldn't imagine how to maintain a pile of metal and stones.

At this time, the old man didn't have time to take care of Liu Yuxin, and floated in the air and closed his eyes to recuperate.

After pacing back and forth in the neighborhood a few times, Liu Yuxin lost patience.

What kind of overhaul is this? I'm afraid I'm already asleep, right? Hey, that's not right! That thing is obviously a disembodied al, and it doesn't need to sleep, right?

Just when Liu Yuxin was a little bored, the jade slip sank with a "click", and those metal pieces immediately began to float as if they had been given life, and condensed countless slender tentacles on their surface.

The tentacles pushed the metal blocks around them a distance away and merged with each other, causing all the metal blocks to form a strange geometric shape in the air, and turning the originally unconnected metal blocks into a single unit, and opening a white portal on each side.

At the same time, two silver-glittering boys holding a small jade mallet appeared from a portal and hurriedly began to pound on the surrounding jade crystals.

"Ding~"

"Knock~"

……

The echo is clear and melodious, but it is very pleasant to the ear.

Liu Yuxin took a closer look, aren't these the two little dwarfs in their work clothes? So this is overhauling the equipment?

"Boom!"

In the process of beating, a piece of crystal made an incongruous metal friction sound, the little dwarf took a small jade mallet and knocked on it a few times, the bottom of the crystal suddenly bloomed like a flower, and the crystal rod inserted in his own flower core was exposed.

The little dwarf pulled up the entire crystal rod and burrowed into his portal, and soon appeared with a brand new spare part in his hand and inserted it back into its original position. The blooming crystal flower retracted, and after a few seconds, it merged with the crystal rod, and there was no trace of unnaturalness.

The gnome in charge of maintenance tapped it again with a jade mallet.

"Ding~"

The dwarf nodded in satisfaction and moved on to the next piece of jade.

After examining all the surrounding jade crystals, the two gnomes returned to the portal, which collapsed into the center and vanished.

The old man, who had not spoken, suddenly opened his eyes and looked directly at Liu Yuxin:

"Are you sure you want to go? Once you enter the Heavenly Court, it will be even more difficult to come back! ”

Do you have to go yourself?

Liu Yuxin asked herself again in her heart.

Yes, you have to go!

Dean, Xiao Yan, Cao Zijing, these most important people in their lives are no longer there, and they have nothing to worry about in this world.

Whether it is to seek capital that can fight against the behemoth of the Nangong family in the future, or the contradiction that Xi Kunlun urgently needs to solve, he needs to go to the Heavenly Palace by himself.

Liu Yuxin nodded cautiously.

After receiving Liu Yuxin's confirmation, Al turned into a burst of white light and dissipated in the air.

Immediately, the lump of metal melted like cream and spread across the jade plate, forming an extremely complex pattern in a few breaths, and the majestic power was hidden in the undulating metal liquid. Gradually, the liquid metal extended out of the jade plate, connecting the tentacles to the crystals that stood around it, and when the two intersected, the crystals burst into dazzling light as the entire cavern began to shake violently.

It's not going to collapse, is it?

Liu Yuxin grabbed the wall beside her with an earthy face, and her heart went up and down.

More sand and gravel fell from the dome, and a glimmer of light appeared in the sky. Liu Yuxin suddenly found that directly above the teleportation array formed by metal, a skylight of the same area as it had been broken.

The shaking of the cavern gradually stopped, and when everything was calm again, a pillar of light rose from the center of the teleportation array and burst through the sky.

The pillar of light went from thin to thick, and finally covered the entire teleportation array, and even Liu Yuxin, who was standing more than ten meters away, could feel the great power in it.

The transmission of energy was maintained for tens of seconds, and finally disappeared into the endless firmament, when the bright spot of the last bit of grating disappeared, a traction beam was projected from the sky, and the whole beam had seven colors, arranged from light to thick, and when the cycle was completed, it was a reincarnation that began repeatedly, like a stairway to heaven!

Liu Yuxin hesitated for a moment, and then strode into the teleportation array. Liu Yuxin, who entered the teleportation array, only felt that his body was light, and the earth's restraint on him had left him, giving him a feeling of fluttering immortals.

However, this is not just a feeling in his subjective consciousness, but his body is indeed floating into the sky in violation of the laws of physics.

Liu Yuxin, who discovered this, panicked for a while, as a species that has lived on the ground for a long time, it is inevitable that there will be some panic when her feet leave the ground. Liu Yuxin used his hands and feet to scratch in the air for a while, but he never understood the essentials, and when Liu Yuxin resigned himself to his fate and stopped struggling, he found that he had risen out of the hole.

The originally somewhat oppressive walls were replaced by beautiful blue skies and white clouds, and now what appears in front of Liu Yuxin's eyes is the majestic Kunlun Mountains!

Liu Yuxin didn't expect that she would appear on the highest peak here, as if she was still in the desert thousands of kilometers away dozens of minutes ago.

Could it be that this is what some biographies say about a thousand miles of time, a feather to the peak?

The winding Kunlun Mountains are like a sleeping dragon, traversing thousands of kilometers, including countless forests and green spaces, and some peaks are towering into the clouds, surrounded by clouds and mist all year round, and the ice and snow cover the slopes, the scenery is decorated with plain beauty and generosity, between the peaks, countless birds soar freely in the middle of it to add vitality to the entire mountain range, Liu Yuxin was immersed in it for a while.

With the increase in height, the speed of his upward flight became faster and faster, the scenery on the ground quickly became blurred, and there were more clouds in front of him, and Liu Yuxin's heart became unsteady again. Fortunately, Liu Yuxin has not felt any discomfort for the time being, and she has gradually adapted to floating in the air, so she will not panic for a while.

After reaching a certain height, the acceleration has made Liu Yuxin's speed to an incredible degree, often his eyes have not had time to transmit the information of the white clouds in front of him to his brain, and new clouds have rushed in, which actually makes Liu Yuxin feel nausea similar to motion sickness. Liu Yuxin simply closed her eyes to alleviate the dizziness caused by her brain's inability to process information in time.

Suddenly, Liu Yuxin, who closed her eyes, felt that she had stopped. Liu Yuxin, who knew that she had arrived at her destination, opened her eyes again and found herself in a cloud-filled space. This space is full of bright and gorgeous jade, finely carved crystals, and wisps of white clouds and smoke surround it, making the whole environment indescribably ethereal.

Liu Yuxin, who had already seen those things, squatted down and touched the floor, and sure enough, as he expected, the material on the floor was also the same kind of jade from the teleportation array, and it seemed that this jade was a more commonly used building material for the giant clan.

Liu Yuxin stood up again, the fog around him made it impossible for Liu Yuxin to see too far, he could only try to grope slowly in this empty place. Fortunately, his perception was not affected by these fogs, which gave Liu Yuxin a little confidence in his heart.

Liu Yuxin made some marks on the ground while walking, so as to avoid getting lost in this unknown space and turning in circles, and walked straight forward for a while, Liu Yuxin finally saw a gate in front of her.

Liu Yuxin was excited in her heart and ran over at an accelerated pace.

When Liu Yuxin approached, he finally saw the whole picture of the gate: two huge jade pillars connected the jade-colored city walls on both sides, and in the lower part of the pillar was the city gate, and the plaque of the city tower dozens of meters above the wall was engraved with a few appalling words.

Nantianmen!
