Chapter 1355 An Accidental Success

It is certainly gratifying to successfully kill the radiation monster and eliminate this hidden danger that will inevitably become a huge threat in the future.

But with good comes misfortune. The immense power of lightning not only brings good news, but also...

"What?! All the machines are broken?" Antonio suddenly screamed and looked at Pine in disbelief.

That was the machine he and Lin Fan had spent countless days and nights collecting materials, traveling back and forth, and setting up one by one with their own hands!

Antonio's eyes darkened when he thought of the densely marked points on the map.

"Not necessarily all of it," Yin Ze replied calmly, "but based on what I've seen along the way, combined with the remaining radiation levels in the space, the last lightning strike had a significant impact on a large area. Look down at our feet. Under such a lightning strike, how could the radiation cleanup equipment from the Noah, which was designed without any consideration for the intensity of the lightning strike, still be working?"

The mountain and stone ruins that had stood for thousands of years were all razed to the ground. The machine was able to leave its "body intact" because of Qiu Yi's high resistance preset.

Antonio didn't want to believe it and forced Pine to go and verify it.

It was not until he saw dozens of damaged machines with his own eyes that he finally collapsed in despair.

"What should I do?" He held his head dejectedly. "Do I have to collect materials again and start all over again? No..."

Pine didn't quite understand what was going on with Antonio.

Turning to look at Xingchen, she had already crouched down and opened the machine's casing. Leaning closer, she asked, "How is it? Is the damage serious?"

"This looks fine, it's just that the parts are short-circuited. It should be fine if we find a new part and replace it." The black mecha finger pointed the location to Yingze.

Although Lin Fan wasn't good at scientific research, she did have a skill in equipment maintenance, having learned it under high pressure. Fixing a malfunction in an apparently intact piece of equipment wasn't too difficult for her.

"Don't we have to redo everything?" Antonio also came over.

"We won't need this kind of thing," Lin Fan said, installing the outer shell. He then took out a spare unit from the space and started it up. "The ones closest to us are all broken. They probably need to be rebuilt. However, the future of this shouldn't have anything to do with us."

"Ah?" Antonio was stunned. "Oh, that's right. Since Pine Ze is here, of course it's not our responsibility. If I had known that a thunderbolt could strike you out, I would have let Lin do it a long time ago...hiss, that's not right!"

He turned to Xingchen again: "If I had known that this radiation could clear so much, I wouldn't have had to build these machines. It would have saved me several years..."

Xingchen slapped him on the head without any hesitation: "How could I have known so much earlier! A few years ago, I couldn't have drawn the Nine Heavens Purifying World Thunder Pattern, let alone caused this series of chain reactions. So everything is the best arrangement. Don't worry about knowing it earlier."

The significant reduction in ancient radiation values ​​was indeed caused by lightning strikes, but it was not actually eliminated by the power of lightning.

Instead, when a thunderstorm occurs, it generates huge energy traction, like a tornado, madly absorbing all the energy nearby.

In the ancient space, apart from the spiritual energy locked in the barrier, the radiation energy is everywhere.

After the radiation within the space was absorbed by the energy cluster formed by the thunderstorm, it collided with the unstable energy of the radiation monster, causing an energy collision similar to a nuclear explosion, and the resulting shock wave irradiated almost the entire space. While clearing various obstacles, it also happened to break through the previously locked secret space...

So the cause and effect in the world is like a sip or a bite.

If the radiation monster hadn't locked up those secret realms in advance to prevent Pine from competing with it for energy, it's hard to say how much secret realm energy would have been drawn into this wave. The ultimate damage would definitely be more than this.

The energy impact felt by the stars in it is not just lightning energy and radiation energy, these two types of impacts she herself has a certain resistance to.

If the spiritual power in the secret realm is also absorbed by the thunderstorm and mixed in, even a powerful being like a star may not be able to withstand this attack.

Lin Fan really thought so: she was careless for a moment and caused the monster to relax its guard, chasing her all the way out. Antonio just happened to attract the thunderclouds, and she just happened to be able to draw the top-level Nine Heavens Purifying World Thunder Talisman, triggering the final blow.

However, they accidentally cleared out most of the radiation energy in the space, killed the monster, and barely saved their lives. At the same time, they broke through the secret space that they didn't know was locked, and released Yinze who was trapped inside.

This chain of coincidences wouldn't have led to the current outcome if any one of them were missing. How could this not be the best arrangement?

"Alright, alright," Lin Fan had already spoken, and Antonio could only shrug his shoulders and resign himself to his fate. He sighed, "Anyway, the radiation levels dropped to this level a few years earlier than expected, thanks to us... Sigh~~"

He suddenly realized: "Wait, if the radiation level drops in advance, then can people outside also come in earlier?"

His eyes swept over to Yunze, and he realized he had misjudged him. He pointed at him and said, "No, no, Yunze is here now, and the threat is gone. Can't we just go straight to the secret realm to get the Chaos Orb? What about the radiation? We won't be responsible for it later! You agreed to give us the Chaos Orb, right? Right?"

"I haven't thought of going back on my word!" Yin Ze put his hands behind his back in a bad mood. He had a temper after being questioned time and again, didn't he? "It's just that I haven't found the address of the Tianji Sect yet, and now that the terrain has changed, it's even harder to find..."

"Don't worry about that," Antonio patted his chest and smiled, "We've already found the Tianji Sect. The coordinates are all here. Just follow us, let's go..."

As he spoke, he reached out to pull the person back. Seeing that Yinze took several steps back, he questioned, "What? Don't you keep your word?"

Lin Fan said something fair: "Let's go out and rest for a while. Neither we nor Ying Ze are in the best condition. Now that we have everyone, we can rest for a while."

After all, it's a secret place, and we don't know if it has been affected by external shocks. Of course, it's safest to enter when you're in peak condition!

Antonio then remembered that Lin Fan had just been struck by lightning. Although he seemed to be fine now, it was indeed not appropriate for him to continue exploring unknown areas.

That’s right, next time we should call Le Zhengyuanqing as well. Let him handle anything. He’s so powerful, he should be brought out to use.

"Okay, okay, let's go out and rest first." Antonio made a plan secretly, nodded in response, and asked Pine, "Do you want to come with us?"

Yun Ze naturally joined them, further proving that he had no intention of cheating.

The group rode on flying swords to the nearest teleportation array.

Yin Ze was surprised by the cultivation level of Lin Fan and the others. Although he knew the power of the World Tree, it was still hard not to be moved by the power he had accumulated over thousands of years.

As soon as I entered the city, I heard all kinds of news without even asking.

"The Changtian Clan is in real trouble this time. They've always held the key to the ancient world! No wonder they've thrived for so many years. So this is what's going on."

"The last siege failed, but this time the sects won't let us go so easily. The ancient world... wow, I'm so excited..."

"It's true. After the royal family sings, the immortals take the stage. What's Changtianmen's attitude now? Are they still keeping silent while maintaining their mountain defense formation?"

"Of course they admit it, there's no way to refute it. Otherwise, given their untouchable temperament, they would have started cursing long ago. Why would they let those people surround them?"

"That makes sense..."

How long has it been? Lingzhen Pavilion has already stretched the Tianmen Gate into the water! Lin Fan's expression was solemn. He pulled Antonio and Yinze straight to the teleportation array.

As expected, the formation point leading to Changtian Gate was sealed. The three of them came out from the nearest place and ran all the way on their flying swords.
