Relics of Civilization

In Hongning Base City, the global headquarters of the Extreme Martial Arts Dojo was a massive building resembling an ancient, colossal spaceship. On the landing pad next to this colossal spaceship-like structure, a dark blue triangular fighter jet slowly descended.Inside the intelligent fighter jet."The Black God Set can't be used inside those Relics of Civilization, so I'll have to leave it here," Luo Feng said, extending his right hand. Soon, a black membrane gathered on it, forming a black glove. "I also need to release control."Once the Black God Set absorbed its owner's blood, it would undergo a transformation, becoming unprecedentedly compatible with the owner's body, like a second skin. It could change in countless ways, even hiding beneath the skin. But it had one drawback: once worn, it was extremely difficult to remove.To remove it from the body, there were two methods. First, the owner's death!Second, actively control the Black God Set to expel the absorbed blood, and it would automatically detach from the body."Now, to make the Black God Set detach. Later, I'll have to let it absorb blood again," Luo Feng said with a wry smile.A moment later, the black glove dropped onto the intelligent fighter jet's seat."Number 1, store the Black God Set safely," Luo Feng instructed, then left the intelligent fighter jet.Inside the colossal spaceship-like building, Luo Feng was greeted and led to a lounge shortly after his arrival. The spacious lounge contained dozens of seats.Six people were already inside. Judging by their appearance, Luo Feng immediately determined that a pair, a man and a woman, were likely Huaxia descendants; one person sitting with closed eyes was probably Indian; of the other three, two were Black individuals also sitting quietly; and one was a white person with golden curly hair."Hello, Luo Feng, I am Tuobayan, from Kyoto Base City," the Huaxia man said, walking over to introduce himself. "As far as I know, among the eight of us departing, only you and I are from Huaxia Nation. Oh, and the Miss Li who was just speaking with me is from Hongning Base City.""Oh," Luo Feng nodded slightly, exchanged a few casual words, then sat down to meditate quietly....preparing for the upcoming entry into the Relics of Civilization.Soon, the eighth and final member arrived. All the Wargods from the Extreme Martial Arts Dojo heading to the No. 9 Relics of Civilization this time were now present."Everyone, please follow me."Led by a man in loose red robes, Luo Feng and the other eight Wargods from around the globe arrived at a quiet room made entirely of strange purple wood. The purple wood forming the quiet room was unlike any they had ever seen; it not only emitted a peculiar fragrance but also allowed one to achieve an unprecedented state of calm and mental focus.A man in black stood in the quiet room, with his back to Luo Feng and the group."Dojo Master!"All eight, including Luo Feng, bowed slightly.Only then did the man in black turn around, his gaze sweeping over Luo Feng and the group. He said indifferently, "The No. 9 Relics of Civilization, although its danger level is considered low among all Relics of Civilization, still has a very high casualty rate. If any of you regret it now and wish to withdraw, you may speak up. Otherwise, once you enter the Relics of Civilization, it will be too late for regrets."Everyone remained silent."Very good," the man in black said indifferently. "Yaorao, come in."The voice spread out.Swish!A blurry figure materialized outside the door. It was a mysterious woman wearing a black robe and a golden mask, with long black hair flowing freely. Because the mask covered her face, only her eyes, nose, and mouth were visible, but even so, it was clear she was an absolute beauty.Especially those eyes—they were utterly captivating."She's a mixed-race individual," Luo Feng deduced from the mysterious woman's eyes. "Yaorao, one of the three personal guards, truly lives up to her nickname."The three personal guards were Dojo Master Hong's most loyal subordinates!Because they had always followed Hong, their strength was slightly superior to the average strength of the five Inspector-level Wargods."The eight of you will depart shortly for the No. 9 Relics of Civilization. Yaorao will lead the team," the man in black instructed."Yes."Everyone acknowledged the order."Luo Feng, stay. The rest of you, withdraw," the man in black commanded.Soon, only Luo Feng and the man in black, Hong, remained in the quiet room.The man in black said indifferently, "Luo Feng, you inquired about the Relics of Civilization through an internal call, didn't you? You don't want to go?""Dojo Master."Luo Feng bowed slightly. "I did indeed call to inquire about it. At that time, I believed that entering the 'Relics of Civilization,' risking my life only to obtain a 'Black God Set' in the end... the risk involved and the final reward... were not worth it. So, I was quite hesitant then.""You've changed your mind?" The man in black looked at Luo Feng with slight surprise."Yes."Luo Feng nodded. "The path to transcending life's limits is fraught with difficulties. One must naturally strive against the current!""Even normal people walking can get into car accidents.""They can get hit on the head by a falling flowerpot in their Residential District. Nothing is 100% safe!""Since I've chosen this path, I must have the courage to fight. If it were 100% safe, it wouldn't be challenging. It's precisely the presence of danger that makes my blood boil and fills me with fighting spirit! And since they say the success rate is over 80%, what do I have to fear?" Luo Feng's eyes shone brightly.The man in black watched and nodded inwardly.This young man before him had good talent, but to achieve great things, talent alone was not enough.This time, the young man clearly possessed a more indomitable fighting spirit than when he first saw him! It was a fighting spirit that couldn't be bent by a hammer or swept away by a torrent! To truly break through life's limits and become a peak expert on Earth, one needed such an 'unrivaled' and 'unstoppable' fighting spirit!"Very good. I just want to tell you... among the 'Advanced Mental-Force Wargods' who entered the No. 9 Relics of Civilization, some failed, but none died," the man in black said.Luo Feng's heart stirred slightly. So that's how it is...No wonder Hong had been so confident when he let him enter back then."Of course, Advanced Mental-Force Wargods are inherently few, and there aren't enough examples, so we can't guarantee 100% safety," the man in black added. "Go and rejoin the others.""Yes, Dojo Master."Luo Feng immediately left.Whoosh!The Qiankun-class intelligent fighter jet was flying through the air at an astonishing speed.Inside the cabin were the personal guard Yaorao and the eight Wargods."You can simply call me Miss Councilor," Yaorao said, her voice incredibly pleasant to listen to, stirring a tickle in one's heart. "Our destination this time is the No. 9 Relics of Civilization. This No. 9 Relics of Civilization is located deep within the Amazon jungle in South America and is considered one of the less dangerous among the Relics of Civilization."Suddenly, the white man asked curiously, "Miss Councilor, are there other Relics of Civilization?""Of course!"No one could see Yaorao's detailed facial expression, but they could see her lips curl slightly upward. "I can tell you about one: the No. 1 Relics of Civilization, which is the earliest discovered Relics of Civilization on our Earth. It is located deep beneath the sea in the vicinity of the Bermuda Triangle in the 'North Atlantic' Ocean."Everyone, including Luo Feng, couldn't help but be startled.The No. 1 Relics of Civilization? The earliest discovered?"However, currently, there is no way for anyone on Earth to enter the entrance of the No. 1 Relics of Civilization," Yaorao said, her voice holding a hint of mischief. "No matter how powerful the expert, no matter how hard the metal weapon... the moment they cross the entrance, they will be annihilated!"Luo Feng and the others were speechless.This No. 1 Relics of Civilization was so formidable that all of humanity on Earth to this day couldn't even cross its entrance.Even figures like Hong and Lei Shen couldn't enter; it seemed even 'SS-grade materials' or other harder materials would be destroyed at the entrance. "This place, it's best not to even think about it," Luo Feng thought to himself. "Just focus on cultivating for now.""Everyone, listen carefully. I'll only say this once!"Yaorao's voice grew slightly louder."The No. 9 Relics of Civilization is an ancient ruin designed for 'selection and elimination' trials. When you enter, warriors will generally proceed into the depths of the ruins via 'Type A passages'. Mental-force Wargods will be arranged by the ruins to enter its depths via 'Type B passages'," Yaorao explained. The moment she said this, everyone pricked up their ears and listened intently.It seemed...Mental-force Wargods and warriors received different treatment inside."After entering the depths of the Relics of Civilization, each person's experience will not necessarily be the same.""The difficulty will also vary!""However, successful participants will receive the ruins' reward: a 'Black God Set'. Those who fail will either die or be crippled!"Yaorao suddenly stood up and faced the Qiankun-class intelligent fighter jet's control panel, saying, "Passcode... No. 9 Relics."Beep!Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!Eight red beams of light shot out from inside the intelligent fighter jet, directly targeting the communication watches on the wrists of Luo Feng and the other eight Wargods. The group was filled with confusion."Don't be nervous," Yaorao said, her lips curling slightly upward, as if smiling."The No. 9 Relics of Civilization contains its own language and script, but it's unlike any language or script on Earth," Yaorao explained. "Not understanding the language or being able to read the script within the ruins will significantly waste your time. In the early days, when no one understood this language and script, there were Wargods who stayed inside the ruins for over seven months before emerging.""Understanding the language and script will allow you to achieve twice the result with half the effort.""Therefore, before you enter, I will install a translation software package into your communication watches! This software can translate the language and script of the No. 9 Relics of Civilization into both Chinese and English. After you emerge, I will be responsible for uninstalling this No. 9 Relics language translation software."Five minutes later, the installation process was complete.In the Amazon jungle in South America, under the cover of night, the Qiankun-class intelligent fighter jet rapidly dove down from high altitude, then slowly landed.Whoosh!The cabin door opened.Luo Feng and the other eight Wargods, along with Yaorao, stepped out together to find themselves in a desolate wasteland, surrounded by an endless jungle. Some monsters could be seen, but not a single one dared to approach. A hissing sound was heard, the ground trembled, and the earth directly split open on both sides, revealing a five-meter-wide passage leading underground.Beep!A silver-gray elevator rose directly to the surface, its doors opened, and an old man in red robes emerged."Councilor Yaorao," the old man in red robes said, bowing slightly."Mm."Yaorao looked at Luo Feng and the other eight, her lips curling slightly upward. "Alright, hurry and go in, then enter the Relics of Civilization! Each of you will encounter different situations. I wish you all can come out alive!" Immediately, Councilor Yaorao darted directly into the Qiankun-class fighter jet, and the fighter jet quickly flew away."Everyone, please hurry," the old man in red robes reminded them. "Only the last two hours remain for the No. 9 Relics of Civilization to be open this year."
