Gun Kai
Chapter 578 Searching Two
“Alright, the main purpose this time is registration, to leave an imprint of your furnaces here, so as to monitor changes in your realms at any time.” A gloomy voice came from the side.
“The Yin Canon Furnace can increase realms as long as fuel is continuously added?” Que Ru's voice rang out.
“Of course, but some fuels allow for faster progress, some slower, and some don’t burn completely, requiring the addition of certain catalysts, otherwise they will get stuck and hinder the burning process. This is what your inheritances have obtained. Also…” Yin Jiu smiled.
“The more and stronger things burned in a stage, the greater the improvement in that stage. Within a time limit of three hundred years, if you cannot reach the lower limit of improvement for the next stage, the furnace will gradually decline, permanently losing the possibility of further advancement.”
Three hundred years…
Li Cheng颐 and Que Ru exchanged glances, both seeing determination in each other's eyes.
“Remember, in the True Fire stage, the acquisition of Yuan Imprints is only for burning, turning them into kindling to strengthen the True Fire. The sublimation of the True Fire is the core of your pursuit. Do not be like the Death Qi Theocracy, stacking and combining Yuan Imprints meaninglessly, ultimately creating a few war machines. What use is that?”
Li Cheng颐 was inwardly awe-stricken. The dense mass of imprints on the Death Angel King was still fresh in his memory.
“Thank you for your guidance, Senior Uncle.” The two replied in unison.
“Go, this place is not suitable for a long stay. After you improve your realm next time, you can enter again, and then you will be officially received by many True Division Masters. At that time, you will also be qualified to choose the direction of the forbidden knowledge system you want to acquire. This time is considered a preliminary test,” Yin Jiu reminded.
Li Cheng颐 and the other understood that this was their entry test after entering the True Division. If they still could not reach the next realm within three hundred years after knowing the correct and fastest cultivation method, they would lose their True Division qualification and at most become ordinary members unable to obtain resource inclination.
“Alright, I’ll send you back. It should be time for the next batch of people,” Yin Jiu reminded.
The two quickly got up and followed him out of the Dao Palace.
“This time your realms are too low to see the changes in the surrounding still scenery. When you come again in the future, you will be able to perceive the appearance of the original source of all things,” Yin Jiu explained carefully.
He waved his hand, creating a piece of white light, and swept up the two, disappearing from this island in the blink of an eye.
Only leaving in the Dao Palace, two furnace patterns belonging to Que Ru and Li Cheng颐, slowly emerging on the wall.
Not long after the two left, a new ray of light shot over and landed from the golden ring, bringing a new batch of people.

Earth Moon.
Above the boundless blue ocean.
A tall figure with silver hair and black clothes flickered and appeared in the blink of an eye.
He floated in mid-air, looking down at the seawater below, a flash of black-gold fluorescence in his eyes.
Whoosh!
A huge mental force formed a substantial hurricane, centered on him, and quickly spread in all directions.
Before long, it covered an area of several thousand kilometers around.
‘Finally back.’ The silver-haired man sighed, his figure flickered again, and he reappeared in the sky above a remnant ruin.
The traces of human life below made him sigh slightly, and black light rose from his body again.
Chih.
After the second flicker, he appeared on the top of a snow-capped mountain.
Around him were sloping snow slopes. A snow eagle was gliding past when it was startled by the sudden appearance of Li Cheng颐. It rolled and tumbled, almost falling straight down.
“It's here!” Li Cheng颐 instantly determined the location.
After returning a few days ago, he came directly to Earth Moon to find the last remaining aura of Rainbow Candy.
Standing on the snow, he lowered his head and picked up a piece of broken black plastic from the ground.
It seemed to be a broken piece of an earphone.
There was a familiar faint aura on it, the aura of Rainbow Candy's Flower Language Bead.
Throwing away the broken piece, Li Cheng颐 looked around.
Slowly moving his feet, he looked for the location where the aura was strongest.
“Red God.”
“Here.” A dark red figure appeared behind Li Cheng颐, bowing slightly.
“Create a fixed-point teleportation gate here. What is the farthest it can go back to Mo Sha?”
“If the coordinates are continuous and accurate, it can be done with three transfers, but the consumption is a bit high,” the Red God said in a low voice.
“Then have them prepare over there,” Li Cheng颐 said.
He had not even cultivated for a hundred years in total. Breaking through to the next stage in three hundred years was basically not difficult for him.
So after returning, he immediately began to re-find his team members, and the first one he looked for was Rainbow Candy.
Rainbow Candy's Flower Language ability, combined with her talent, was extremely suitable for rapid expansion in technological blind spots.
It can also establish a powerful intelligence analysis system for the team, connecting various sectors.
Therefore, prioritizing finding her was a decision made jointly by Li Cheng颐 and Paine and others.
Now, under the protection of Mo Sha and other gardens, Mingyuan Group has returned to Earth Moon and is beginning to rebuild the prototype of the group headquarters and summon existing blind spot people.
The former blind spot people basically all died during the long escape.
Apart from the Garden team, only Paine was still alive.
Thinking of this, Li Cheng頤 sighed in his heart.
“Let’s go, mark the next place,” he said in a low voice.
The Red God waved his hand and sprinkled golden light spots as a mark, then followed Li Cheng颐 and flew away into the distance.
For three consecutive days.
Li Cheng頤 marked all possible locations where Rainbow Candy's aura remained.
Because he didn't know where she left from specifically, or which blind spot she went to. So he could only check them one by one.
There were a total of thirty-two marked locations.
Among the others, Dragon Gate Crane went to a blind spot called Cloud City. Big Bear and Little Brown, like Rainbow Candy, were missing.
Li Cheng颐 planned to come one by one.
After marking the locations, the next step was to consider suitable candidates to stay behind.
To prevent accidents from happening after he left.
Li Cheng頤 ordered the Red God to establish a teleportation array to Pangguang.
To facilitate Grand Senior Brother Huo Qingkong's free travel to and from Earth Moon.
As a top expert who could fight him with all his strength in the Flower God Garment state, Huo Qingkong was kind and generous. Apart from the possibility of going crazy, he was the most trustworthy person for Li Cheng頤.
After he became the holder of the Flower Language Bead, positioning and teleporting to Pangguang became even easier.
At this point, transfer stations were established in Pangguang, Mo Sha, Midraan Earth Moon using divine power teleportation arrays.
After handing over the overall affairs to Huo Qingkong and Boss Xin Dela, Li Cheng頤 was about to embark on the road to retrieve his team members.
Retrieving team members and completing the sect’s preliminary test could be completed together for him.
But before that, he had to do one last thing.

Inside the Mingyuan underground base near Suiyang City.
In the empty and huge cave, Li Cheng颐 floated alone in mid-air, overlooking the base building below that had been destroyed beyond recognition.
The houses had collapsed, there were explosions and bullet holes everywhere, and there were traces of high-temperature melting.
Obviously, there had been a fierce battle here as well.
“Monthly Rose?” Li Cheng颐 called out softly.
There was no response.
“Rose?” He then called out to Monthly Rose’s sub-body.
There was still no response.
Only a few remaining backup energy lights were shining with a dark red halo on the base platform.
He sighed softly, and with a thought.
He instantly fell from the sky above the cave, landed on the ground of the platform.
With a wave of his hand.
Whoosh!
All the broken buildings and waste in front of him were cleared away by invisible giant force.
The platform suddenly became much cleaner.
Then, Li Cheng颐 pressed the back of his left hand, and the Evil Flower lit up with purple light.
‘Do you want to build a Wisdom Tower?’ The inquiry information came.
‘Yes!’
Li Cheng颐 answered in his heart.
‘Please use your hand to determine the location, then retreat to a safe distance.’ The Evil Flower continued to provide feedback.
Li Cheng颐 chose a location, walked to it, and pointed his finger at the ground.
Then quickly retreated.
Silently, a circle of irregular black lines of the tower base appeared on the empty space on the platform.
Li Cheng颐 saw the black lines appearing under his feet and quickly retreated again.
Rumble.
With a slight tremor, a two-story, only ten-meter-high white stone tower appeared out of thin air in the area drawn by the black lines.
At the top of the stone tower, a pale yellow giant ball was suspended and rotated.
The surface of the tower was engraved with patterns of three-ball sycamore flowers.
‘Resources have been consumed, and the building has been completed.’ The Evil Flower finished its feedback.
Li Cheng颐 looked up at the suddenly appearing small tower, which was only ten meters high, really short.
The appearance was small, but the function was quite extraordinary.
He walked closer and came to the entrance gate of the Wisdom Tower.
The gate of this small tower, which was similar to an obelisk, was square. Two doors engraved with a large number of complicated and unknown patterns slowly opened automatically as Li Cheng颐 approached.
Inside the door was a bright and simple white hall.
The ground was paved with white stone slabs, and the walls and ceiling were white walls, but they released a faint white light.
In the middle of the hall on the first floor, there was a cut-off pyramid exhibition stand.
On the exhibition stand made of white stone, there was quietly placed a thread-bound book with a waxy yellow cover, ancient and tattered.
Li Cheng頤 slowly entered the door.
As soon as he entered the door, he received a prompt from the Evil Flower.
‘This year’s book has been acquired. The next acquisition time will be September 13th one year from now.’
‘Is this the randomly obtained book?’ Li Cheng頤 was curious and stepped forward a few steps, stood in front of the exhibition stand, picked up the book, and carefully looked through it.
《Raising Pigs Made Easy》, Author: Feisili Coleman, a world-renowned pig raising expert, has lived and eaten with pigs for eighteen years, deeply understanding the survival, reproduction, activity and habits of pigs.
“…” Li Cheng颐 was silent.
‘It really is not limited by level’ He patiently read half of it and determined that this was an agricultural manual specializing in pig raising.
Disappointed, he put down the book and went up to the second floor.
The second floor was empty, with nothing.
He had no choice but to go downstairs and walk out of the Wisdom Tower.
He originally thought that the Wisdom Tower might need the Grand Senior Brother's key protection, but now it seems…
It was completely unnecessary.
With a thought, Li Cheng颐 disappeared from the spot in the blink of an eye.
This time, his heart was finally calm. Without any nostalgia, he directly began the search for Rainbow Candy in the blind spots.

Mirror City.
Boom!!
A jet fighter, painted entirely black and burning with raging flames, fell from the sky and crashed heavily into the city street.
The jet fighter exploded instantly, shattering into countless flaming fragments. The huge impact airflow shattered the surrounding storefronts and the windows of the building.
Street corner. Several men and women in sunglasses, carrying technological black long guns and running at high speed, deftly dodged and rolled into the street alleys on both sides, avoiding the jet fighter's violent explosion.
Although they dodged in time, the powerful sonic boom at close range still made their eardrums ache and their heads buzz.
"Boss! Let's retreat!! The aerospace force of the Rolai galaxy can't hold on anymore! We're just sending ourselves to death if we continue to stay here!"
Among the people, a ponytail woman wearing camouflage pants and a black vest covered her bleeding right ear with one hand and shouted to the captain lying on the ground in front of her.
