Alien Science Cultivation

"According to the ancestor, this pair of golden scimitars are the claws of a giant beast. However, the color is too bright. I don't know if the color can be changed at will after refining. You can study it yourself..." Wu Yong once again truthfully relayed the ancestor's words and expressed his own opinion by the way.

"Netherworld Beast Claw..." Zhang Qiang was startled when he swept his spiritual sense across the golden scimitar, and muttered it softly.

He noticed the aura of the golden scimitar claws mirrored the bloodstains on the Nether Dagger, leading Zhang Qiang to conclude that the claws must have come from the Nether Beast. However, these claws had been extensively modified, rendering it impossible for ordinary observers to discern the scimitars from the claws of a strange beast. Zhang Qiang wouldn't have been so certain if his spiritual sense hadn't been so powerful, capable of detecting the strength of atomic nuclei. Furthermore, the "Nether Flash..." ability displayed by Elder Yao Chen before him, coupled with the bloodstains on the twenty-four flying knives before him, further solidified Zhang Qiang's conviction. He simply couldn't fathom how Elder Yao Chen had acquired such blood, even the Nether Beast's claws. After all, Zhang Qiang suspected that the Nether Beast was far too powerful for even an early Quasi-Sage, Elder Yao Chen, to challenge.

"The claws of the Nether Beast..." Everyone was bewildered and confused upon hearing this. After all, they had never heard of the Nether Beast, let alone what level of existence it was.

"I've only heard about it... It's a giant beast in the starry sky... It's extremely powerful..." Zhang Qiang looked at everyone's confusion and began to explain. As for more information about the Nether Beast, he didn't know. He learned this information from the Shadow Clan.

As Zhang Qiang spoke, he involuntarily picked up a scimitar and examined it carefully. The handle of the scimitar was decorated to resemble fish scales. As soon as he grasped it, an extremely cold air instantly entered Zhang Qiang's palm and quickly spread throughout his body.

"Brother Qiang..." Wang Yan cried out in horror. Following Wang Yan's cry, everyone released their spiritual senses to check on Zhang Qiang. But strangely, their spiritual senses couldn't reach Zhang Qiang's body at all, passing right through him, as if Zhang Qiang had merged with space.

"Oh my god... I'm so scared..." Zhang Qiang was equally frightened. As the extremely cold aura spread throughout his body, Zhang Qiang's body instantly disappeared from his consciousness. He thought he had been disintegrated by the extremely cold aura, but his perception told him that he was fine. It was just that any energy fluctuations in his body were absorbed by the extremely cold aura, not a single trace of it leaking out. In other words, this extremely cold aura could at least absorb the energy generated by the internal movement of atoms. It was more terrifying than any aura-blocking treasure Zhang Qiang had ever seen.

"This scimitar and Chen Ying's scimitar are a perfect match. The cold light on Chen Ying's scimitar can slow down the enemy, and this pair of scimitars can allow oneself to enter a completely hidden mode instantly. Apart from being detected by the naked eye, even one's spiritual sense cannot detect it. It seems that the quality of this scimitar is even better than that of Chen Ying's pair of scimitars..." Zhang Qiang pondered.

After everyone confirmed that Zhang Qiang was fine, they sat down again. Zhang Qiang once again looked at the blade of the scimitar. Apart from its sharpness, Zhang Qiang could not see any other special features. However, he was sure that there were far more secrets on this scimitar.

"Just refine and study it slowly. This scimitar should have the ability to travel through space like these daggers..." Zhang Qiang said, and put the scimitar back on the table in front of Wang Yan.

"And these two pieces of spiritual essence..." Wu Yong said, and took out two egg-sized, jelly-like transparent objects from the Qiankun ring and placed them in front of Chen Ying.

"Spiritual spirit...?" everyone asked in confusion.

"It's the stuff that forms mineral veins... With this stuff, we can basically build two decent sects. Bury them underground, and they can turn mud and stone into spirit stone mines. Within a hundred years, they can provide a small sect's disciples with the necessary spiritual energy for cultivation. As time goes by, they will grow bigger and bigger. Of course, every spirit essence has its own limit. These two are of medium to high quality... The spirit essences of Qingshan Sect are of this quality..." Wu Yong introduced the role of spirit essences in detail. Only then did everyone understand about spirit essences, but they didn't understand why Patriarch Yao Chen gave the spirit essence to Chen Ying. Not only Zhang Qiang and the others didn't understand, but Wu Yong was also confused. After all, Chen Ying's cultivation level was not enough to start a sect, at least for now. Even if Chen Ying's cultivation level was enough to meet the conditions for starting a sect, she would not do it with her personality and willingness. At least Zhang Qiang and Wang Yan thought so.

As Wu Yong introduced the spirits, he unsealed one of them. As the seal was released, a surge of spiritual energy emanated from the spirit, filling the entire room. It was truly breathtaking. "Such powerful spiritual energy... but it's so violent. Using it for direct cultivation is a pipe dream..." Lin Ling couldn't help but sigh. Although her cultivation was rapidly increasing, and she was at the top of the human race's combat power, she had barely ventured out for training. She had always stayed with Wu Yong or Elder Li, the masters of Fuyao Peak, and Elder Yao, the masters of Liehuo Peak. Her ideas were limited, and she had no idea Chen Ying was from a technological planet. Zhang Qiang, Wang Yan, and Chen Ying were speechless with excitement. Especially Chen Ying's hands began to tremble, "Thank you, Sect Master, for your kindness... Thank you, Elder Yao Chen, for your kindness and trust..." Chen Ying stood up and respectfully took the unsealed spirit crystal from Wu Yong's hands, and kept thanking him... Although Wu Yong was puzzled, for him, although the spirit crystal could be used to establish a sect, it would also take time to wait. Recruiting disciples, building Gongyu... None of these tasks were easy. The spirit crystal was just the first step in establishing a sect, and it was not worth getting so excited...

"You don't have to thank me for that... Although these things were left to you by Elder Yao Chen, they are actually what you deserve in this war. We were originally planning to hold a commendation meeting to reward each team and its members for their performance in the battle... But with the departure of Elder Yao Chen... the commendation meeting was cancelled. The rewards will be brought back to the team members by the masters of each peak..." Wu Yong explained, a trace of sadness flashed across his face, but he hid it in an instant.

Everyone was shocked to hear the news of Patriarch Yao Chen's passing. Zhang Qiang, his face filled with sorrow, softly asked, "How did the old ancestor pass away?" Although Zhang Qiang and Patriarch Yao Chen weren't particularly close, the sincerity with which he single-handedly rushed to the teleportation array to avert the human race's crisis spoke volumes about his dedication to the cause. Upon his return, he left his flying crane with Zhang Qiang and the others, instructing them not to return to the clan. This further demonstrates the Patriarch's care and concern for the younger generation of the human race. Even towards Zhang Qiang and Chen Ying, who came from outside the realm, Patriarch Yao Chen showed no ill will, demonstrating a broad-mindedness far beyond that of ordinary people. It's safe to say that Patriarch Yao Chen had a profound influence on Zhang Qiang.
