Chapter 211: Return to the Astral Boundary
"You're going to the Astral Plane?"
In the box of a restaurant, Zhao Manying looked at Ji Xinghuo with some astonishment, and suddenly felt that the food in her mouth was not fragrant.
Ji Xinghuo nodded, "Well, I've already thought about it." ”
"Why?"
Zhao Manying's face was puzzled, she knew Ji Xinghuo's situation very well, "You have just fused the electrostatic field, you should practice more next, and then cultivate the star power, and strive to reach the bottleneck of the high-level Inhuman as soon as possible, and then you can prepare to implant the star gland and be promoted to Super Inhuman." ”
"Before I was promoted to Super Inhuman, I wanted to fuse another Xenomorph, and I needed to find a new expansion curiosity." Ji Xinghuo replied.
As he spoke, he took the barbecue meat and fed it to Qinghong on the table.
Qinghong is shrunk to half a meter long, and the whole body is green with gold and silver patterns, which looks like an ordinary reptile pet, but the proportions are more slender.
It hadn't eaten for almost a month, and it had to eat a lot of food at every meal for the past two days, as if it wanted to make up for all the food it had missed.
"Expanding the ...... of Strange Things"
Zhao Manying's face was helpless.
She and Ji Xinghuo have exchanged their respective fusion situations, and the expansion of the strange things that can be bought on the market, both of them have already used them.
What they can't buy, they've got.
Ji Xinghuo wants another expansion curiosity, which is not a problem that can be solved with money.
In fact, he applied for it in the Sword Bureau, and Zhou Yishang immediately agreed, and then got a green sky fruit the next day.
"Where are you going to get the Celestial Artifact?" Zhao Manying asked.
"Bloody Plateau."
Ji Xinghuo's answer startled her.
Even if Zhao Manying hadn't ventured to the Star Boundary, he had heard of the murderous reputation of the Bloody Plateau.
This is a huge plateau located to the west of the Thousand Peaks Abyss Forest, several times larger than the territory of the Heavenly Feather Royal Court, and it is said that the area is comparable to the entire earth.
The geography of the Bloody Plateau is dominated by high altitude, with hundreds of thousands of peaks, forming a continuous huge mountain range, with steep terrain and complex climate, giving birth to countless species, monsters, and a large number of rare treasures.
There is no unified country on the plateau, and there are many astral alien races competing with each other, and there are countless tribes, kingdoms, cities, and various forms of power.
Among them, there are dozens of galactic civilizations, and the situation is extremely chaotic, and there are constant wars between each other.
In this land, there is only order and there is no order.
On a scale of 10, if the danger level of the Thousand Peaks Abyss Forest is 2, then the danger level of the Bloody Plateau is at least 5 or more!
Danger often comes with opportunity.
The Bloody Plateau has far more resources and opportunities than the Thousand Peaks Abyssal Forest.
If the aliens on the earth have the ability to leave the Thousand Peaks Abyss Forest and don't want to go to the True Dragon Dynasty, the Bloody Plateau is the first choice.
Among the hundreds of vassal states and border areas surrounding the True Dragon Dynasty, the Bloody Plateau is one of the most recognizable. Even the people of the True Dragon Dynasty, including the True Dragons, had many people enter the Bloody Plateau in search of their own opportunities.
In the south of the Dynasty, there is no better place to wander than the Bloody Plateau!
Ji Xinghuo had heard of it before.
In the past two days, when he was searching for information, he immediately noticed the Bloody Plateau, where at least three rare expansion strange objects were produced.
Moreover, there is more than fighting on the bloody plateau, and the strong are respected, and they will not lack the opportunity to harvest spiritual energy.
It doesn't get much better than that.
"Wouldn't it be too dangerous for you to go to the Bloody Plateau when you're just a high-level alien?" Zhao Manying's eyes were a little worried.
"Don't worry." Ji Xinghuo's face was relaxed, "I'm not sure I won't go, electromagnetic induction can allow me to avoid most strong enemies." ”
"Okay......"
Zhao Manying put down her chopsticks and stared at Ji Xinghuo, "But our agreement hasn't arrived yet." ”
The two agreed to be in love for 100 days.
From the beginning of March to the end of May, there are still about 10 days left before the 100th day.
Ji Xinghuo nodded lightly, "I know." ”
"And what did you decide?" Zhao Manying asked, "Continue to talk, or do you have other ideas?" "The other thought is to break up.
"Isn't it true that after a hundred days, you won't be my girlfriend?" Ji Xinghuo reached over and held her slender and powerful palm, with a smile on his face, "You keep saying that we are making progress too fast, and I don't want to make a decision on the day the agreement expires, why don't I enter the Star Boundary, calm down, maybe you will think about what you want in this time." ”
Zhao Manying looked at him in a daze, and stopped talking.
Eventually, he nodded, "Okay." ”
She showed a sweet smile to Ji Xinghuo, "I'll wait for you to come back safely." Then he asked, "How long are you going?" ”
"I can't say for sure, if it's fast, maybe a few months, but it won't be delayed until a few years later." Ji Xinghuo replied.
Zhao Manying smiled and said, "Don't take too long, or I'm afraid I'll forget you." ”
"Haha......"
Ji Xinghuo laughed.
He heard what Zhao Manying meant, and said seriously: "I won't forget you." ”
"Hmm."
Zhao Manying responded softly, and Ji Xinghuo felt that she was holding her hand a little harder, and seemed to be a little reluctant.
"Please take care of my family while I'm not here." Ji Xinghuo's face was solemn, "Of course, there is usually nothing to do, I mean, if there is any trouble that they can't solve, I want you to give some support." ”
Zhao Manying didn't hesitate, "I don't need you to say it, I will too." ”
"Thank you."
Ji Xinghuo was a little relieved, and then admonished: "You have to be more careful yourself, revenge is urgent, self-preservation, we are still young, and there will always be opportunities in the future." ”
"I know what I have to do, you don't have to worry about me." After Zhao Manying finished speaking, she walked around the table and sat side by side with Ji Xinghuo.
Neither of them said anything about the astral plane, enjoying dinner.
Meal.
Ji Xinghuo went to meet with his second brother Zhong Ming, told him that he was going to the Star Boundary, and left him five real dragon coins, which could be sold in an emergency as family funds.
On the side of the Sword Bureau, I told Zhou Yishang during the day.
As a Chixiao swordsman, when he is not on a mission, he can move freely, including entering the astral boundary, and Zhou Yishang readily agreed.
According to Zhou Yishang's meaning, Ji Xinghuo went to the Star Boundary just to avoid the Qianyuan Society, which was safer.
Late that night.
Ji Xinghuo changed into pottery steel armor, Lei Chi and Moyin were both behind him, as well as invisible thorns and quivers, fully armed.
"It's time for me to go."
Zhao Manying sent him to the door, without squirming, and after giving a deep kiss, he said softly: "Come back early, I will wait for you." ”
Ji Xinghuo nodded, took a deep look at her stunning beauty, and turned around to go out.
After leaving home, he first went to the Sword Bureau, handed back the Purple Electric Sword, and took the Sword Bureau's air and space fighter directly to Chaka City, entered the Star Gate Fortress, without queuing, took the official personnel passage, and entered it directly from the upper part of the Star Gate.
The world swirled, and the vision changed.
Ji Xinghuo stood on the Stargate Square in Olympia, looked at the blue sky, took a deep breath, and immediately inhaled the air of all souls, and adapted without any sluggishness.
"I'm back!"
He said silently in his heart, feeling very comfortable.
The astral plane is daytime.
However, Ji Xinghuo felt a little cool. When I returned to the earth, the astral boundary had just entered the "silent moon", and 150 days on the earth was equivalent to two months in the astral boundary.
The cold season of the astral plane has nine months, and the intermoon is, as the name suggests, the month in the middle.
The weather is cool in the middle of the month.
If you force an analogy, the current astral boundary is equivalent to autumn on Earth, which is neither hot nor cold, and the average temperature is around 20 degrees Celsius.
But it will get colder and colder, the night will get longer and longer, and the starry night will get shorter and shorter, until the length of the starry night will be zero, and the order of the night will be reversed again.
Ji Xinghuo stepped forward and walked out of Xingmen Square in the crowd.
His pace gradually quickened a little, and he entered the Dongxia District, advancing aimlessly on the streets, his face was silent, but he snorted coldly in his heart.
As soon as he entered the astral plane, he noticed that someone was secretly observing him, and he must have been waiting for a long time.
Electromagnetic induction quickly locked onto the other party.
Ji Xinghuo was trying to fish people out, but the other party was very cautious, and without waiting for him to take further action, he turned around and entered the star gate and disappeared. The stargate area that this person entered belonged to the West African Confederation and corresponded to the Abuja stargate on Earth.
"Qianyuan will ......"
Ji Xinghuo's face was expressionless, this organization, which still doesn't know how powerful it is, seems to have already infiltrated into the Star Boundary.
When they learn that they are in the astral plane, will they do something?
"It's ghostly!"
Ji Xinghuo sighed, didn't think about it anymore, the electromagnetic induction kept scanning the surrounding movements, confirming that he was not being followed.
He walked around the city of Olympia and procured a shipment of supplies.
All kinds of arrows, food, water, consumables, etc., were stuffed into the dimensional stomach pouch before returning to the villa on Qinghao Street.
Unsurprisingly, there was no one in the villa.
Ren Mian has not come back yet, although the garden is taken care of by Jiangnan Caiyi, but the situation is obviously not as good as Ren Mian's own care, and many plants are not growing well.
Jiang Nan Caiyi was just promoted to Super Inhuman last month, and she is still adapting, looking for a new Xenomorph fusion, and has no plans to return to the Star Boundary for the time being.
And she has to wait for Ren Mian to come back.
The scales in the pool are similar, he has just made a lot of money, and he wants to transform it into strength, and by the way, he spends all his time on the earth, and he is happy.
Other friends, Ji Xinghuo also did not notify.
This time I went to the Bloody Plateau and wanted to be a lone wanderer myself, and I didn't need teammates.
Ji Xinghuo didn't stay in the villa for a long time, and he was sure that Ren Mian was not there, so he left a note for her and left immediately.
Take an airship for a few hours to the west to Liberty City, and then out of town.
Walking on the road, Ji Xinghuo was quite emotional.
The year before last, the first time I went out hunting, it was the road I walked with Sister Ren and them, and everything seemed to have not changed.
After walking more than ten kilometers, when there was no one around, Ji Xinghuo took out the Qinghong in his pocket.
Then threw it on the ground.
"Get bigger!"
Qinghong showed her true body, her body more than six meters long was lying across the road, her four paws landed on the ground, her head was raised, her long tail dragged behind her and flicked it around flexibly, and her mouth let out an excited roar, returning to the astral boundary, the high density of etheric energy made it feel good.
Ji Xinghuo patted Qinghong's head and took out a large piece of meat and threw it into its mouth.
While it eats meat, jump on its back.
Qinghong, which has transformed into a "lizard-shaped Jiao", has an advantage over before, that is, its current form is very suitable for being a mount.
There is no need to install a saddle, Qinghong's back is just right to ride, the width is just right, and the height is enough.
"Run."
Ji Xinghuo ordered.
Qinghong swallowed the meat in her mouth into her stomach, and immediately shook her limbs and ran up.
Its body is more slender than that of an ordinary lizard, like a four-legged snake, and when it runs, its limbs take turns to land, and its posture looks a little awkward, but its speed is very fast, Ji Xinghuo can hardly feel the bumps, and it is more stable than riding a horse.
The scene on both sides quickly receded, and the wind blew wildly in my ears.
Ji Xinghuo roughly estimated that Qinghong's running speed exceeded 100 kilometers per hour, and this was only its regular running speed, which could easily be doubled when it broke out at full strength.
With Qinghong's physical strength, she will only feel tired after running for seven or eight hours in a row.
Along.
When Qinghong ran past the other hunting teams, it would cause a wave of nervousness, but before they could put up a defensive formation, Qinghong had already run away.
Ji Xinghuo rode it, overtaking one team after another.
No one dared to provoke him at all, and he didn't have to make a move himself, just the aura emitted by Qinghong scared the Inhumans to the core.
It only took more than an hour for Qinghong to run out of human territory, and the road disappeared.
Ji Xinghuo identified the direction and continued westward.
By nightfall, he was more than 500 kilometers away from the Free City.
In the past, when he and Sister Ren were together, this distance would take two days. But he didn't set up camp, the electromagnetic induction turned on to scan the surroundings, allowing Qinghong to continue running in the dark night, until it was time to enter the starry night, Qinghong was finally tired.
Ji Xinghuo found a place in the forest to set up camp, hunted a spotted elk, and gave Qinghong dinner.
After dawn, continue your departure.
Day 3.
A familiar cliff valley appeared in front of him, Qinghong stopped on the edge of a cliff, and Ji Xinghuo rode on its back to look ahead.
"Peak Valley!"
He couldn't be more familiar with this place.
Qinghong also let out an excited roar, her voice was sharp, as thin as a baby, but she could hear its joy at this time, and the Peak Valley was its hometown.
"Let's go, let's go in."
Ji Xinghuo patted Qinghong's neck, and it immediately jumped off the cliff, its four sharp claws firmly inserted into the rock wall, like a gecko, it easily climbed along the cliff to the ground, entered the valley, and rushed through the dense woods and weeds.
It wasn't long before electromagnetic induction discovered a swarm of stone sickles.
And it's a big group.
"It's been a long time since I've been a baboon killer." Ji Xinghuo took the invisible thorn in his hand and let Qinghong rush in the direction of the stone sickle group.
Seven or eight hundred meters away, the stone sickle came into view.
Ji Xinghuo jumped down from Qinghong's back, and when he landed, he had already activated the sneaking ring to cover his figure, and Qinghong also shrank to a few centimeters long and climbed onto his body.
Soon, it came within range of the Invisible Thorn.
Ji Xinghuo easily climbed a big tree, stood on the treetops, and pulled out his bowstring and shot arrows at the largest elite in the stone sickle group.
There is one more chapter, which will be a little later.
