Chapter 687 - 687 Big Surprise (1)

687 Big Surprise (1)

Scientific ruins? Xu Jingmings heart began to race at its mention.

The dean and the others were already at the peak of the Eternal realm, and they could go toe-to-toe with half-step third realm powerhouse Gumo using their forbidden weapon. It was unnatural, especially considering that Gumo also had powerful high-dimensional treasures, including multiple third-realm weapons.

Most peak Eternals relied on their schools uniqueness and secret techniques to survive against half-step third-realm powerhouses, but the dean and the others didnt seem to fear Gumo in a direct confrontation.

It wasnt until Xu Jingming became a high-dimensional lifeform that he understood why.

The scientific lineage is a very niche school in high-dimensional s.p.a.ce, the dean said. Its even challenging to find traces of it in the surrounding dominions.

Xu Jingming nodded thoughtfully. There are indeed no high-dimensional lifeforms from the scientific lineage in the 2,000 nearby dominions.

Although the human race had some superficial knowledge of the scientific lineage, their evolutionary path didnt follow it.

Although we know the basics of the scientific lineage, we are not true high-dimensional scholars, the dean said, nodding. The scientific lineage seeks the essence of all phenomena. The scientific weapons they create can unleash extraordinary might with very little strength. The three of us can match half-step third-realm powerhouses in head-on combat with forbidden weapons.

Eternal Tower Master looked serious. Our human race rose from nothing. The scientific lineage is our greatest fortuitous encounter. If we delve deeper into the scientific lineage, we have a chance of becoming a half-step third realm.

Xu Jingming nodded in agreement.

Half-step third-realm combat strength was a dime a dozen in the vast high-dimensional s.p.a.ce, especially among Abyss Overlords! They were bestowed powers by the Abyss that made them comparable to half-step third-realm powerhouses in every aspect, even if most were only at the peak of the Eternal realm.

But the scientific lineagethey knew how to wield superpowers with lesser strength, and there was a chance they could produce half-step third-realm combat strength too.

And that was the human races ultimate ambition.

This is our greatest fortuitous encounter, declared s.p.a.cetime Island Lord.

The scientific ruins are on Myriad Star Island? Xu Jingming inquired.

Yes, weve relocated them all to Myriad Star Island, the dean confirmed with a smile and a nod.

Studying the scientific lineage requires immense care and time Xu Jingming was well aware. He said, If I start studying the ruins it will probably take a long time.

Even 100 million years of research isnt enough, remarked Eternal Tower Master. Life is limited, but knowledge is infinite.

Xu Jingming nodded in understanding.

In his home universe, he had spent untold hours learning the basics of science. But it was a whole different ball game to grasp high-dimensional scientific knowledge. It required patience, perseverance, and time.

You were focused on studying cosmic s.p.a.cetime so that you could reach the Eternal Realm as soon as possible, so we didnt distract you, the dean said. Since youve reached the Eternal Realm, its suitable for you to explore the ruins of the scientific lineage. Perhaps theres something very suitable for you in these ruins.

I understand. Before we venture into those scientific ruins, theres a matter I need to attend to. His eyes glimmered mischievously. Dean, do you happen to have one of those incredibly large storage items? You know, the ones that can hold dozens of miniature universes?

I do. s.p.a.cetime Island Lord fished out a pendant that looked like a droplet of water. What do you want it for?

May I borrow it for a minute? He grinned. I promise, itll be worth it. Youll all be surprised.

Surprised?

The dean, Tower Master, Island Lord, and Redmond exchanged puzzled looks.

s.p.a.cetime Island Lord also trusted Xu Jingming very much and handed the pendant to him.

Xu Jingmings fingers curled around the pendants cool surface, and his mind was flooded with the realization of what it contained. A vast and intricate high-dimensional s.p.a.ce had been sealed inside.

This pendant is also a s.p.a.cetime wonder. Xu Jingming immediately realized this.

Ill be back in a jiffy. Xu Jingming held the pendant and grinned before disappearing into thin air.

Heart Realm territory.

Xu Jingming held the pendant and teleported back to his Heart Realm territory. It was a smooth journey, thanks to his Eternal realm status and the fact that his territory was within the same dominion as Myriad Star Island.

The vastness of his territory stretched out before him, and he couldnt help but marvel at the expansion that came with his newfound power.

Having reached the Eternal realm, a stronger body and stronger mind and consciousness allowed his territory to expand greatly.

Feels like its about one-tenth the size of Granddreamers. Xu Jingming estimated.

Ill store the treasures first.

Xu Jingming quickly retrieved the 20 miniature universes from the beast hide s.p.a.ce and stowed them away in the s.p.a.cetime pendant.

These 20 miniature universes are one, so I have to remove them at the same time! And treasures that can store 20 miniature universes are very rare. He sighed wistfully.

Time to return.

With the 20 miniature universes and the Eight Directions Map, Xu Jingming immediately teleported back to Myriad Star Island.

Myriad Star Island.

Surprise us in a minute? the dean quipped, a wry smile on his face. What kind of surprise can this kid have?

Weve done so much in high-dimensional s.p.a.ce over the years, but only the science lineage can be considered our fortuitous encounter. Only that can be considered a huge surprise. Eternal Tower Master smiled and said, Xu Jingming has only been a high-dimensional lifeform for 7,000 years. Im very curious about what kind of surprise he has.

The surprise should take up a lot of s.p.a.ce, s.p.a.cetime Island Lord guessed.

Otherwise, he wouldnt have borrowed the treasure from you, the dean teased. Redmond also waited curiously.

Xu Jingming returned after they exchanged a few words.
