Chapter 7: Crisis!
Thinking of the scene just now in his body, Chen Xu's mind moved and the inner breath circulated inside him. As expected, he found that the golden inner breath in the meridians was constantly circulating with the inner breath, and its color was constantly fading. Now, it had changed from crimson gold to light gold, and it was still getting lighter.
As the golden color was continuously absorbed by his body, Chen Xu soon discovered that the golden inner energy had returned to its original colorless state, and without the infusion of the golden inner energy, the diamond spiritual body in his mind also re-hidden deep within his sea of consciousness, no longer visible!
"Ah! Could it be that this thing isn't gold at all? But a kind of energy? In that case, could it be that the aliens only want the golden aura on top?"
At this moment, looking at the light yellow stone in his hand, feeling the body that was stronger than before by more than one percent, and the internal energy that had increased significantly, Chen Xu couldn't help but exclaim out loud!
Now he seems to have discovered something important, something that could shake the entire world, and that is where humanity originated a million years ago!
"Could it be that humans originated as a result of serving as miners for some extraterrestrial race? That's quite a stretch, isn't it?"
He pinched his own face fiercely, and Chen Xu couldn't help but put the light yellow stone into his mouth again, and the result was indeed not unexpected.
As the internal energy in his body fluctuated again, a faint golden power surged out of the stone once more. The diamond spiritual entity reappeared in Chen Xuan's mind, and after withholding two-thirds of the golden energy, it released the remaining one-third to begin reinforcing Chen Xuan's physical body and internal energy intensity once again.
It just came quickly and left quickly, and when Chen Xu felt that he was about to break through to the middle of the second heavy sky boundary, the golden energy disappeared completely. His inner breath, which had been increasing in speed like a rocket, also fell back again, and soon returned to its original state.
He spat out the stone in his mouth, took it into his hand and examined it carefully. Chen Xu furrowed his brow, as he had expected, this time the color of the stone faded again, and more thoroughly than before, now it has become a crystal stone, really hard to imagine.
Just a moment ago, Chen Xu remembered it was still a golden yellow gold brick!
Through various signs and hints of the transmitted information, Chen Xu had roughly determined the identity of this crystal in his heart by now. In short, this thing would absolutely not be a gold nugget, but after maturation, it was very similar to a gold nugget!
"Perhaps this is why people in later generations like gold, because from ancient times, our genes have been filled with a longing for this color. This nature has been passed down for millions of years and is really hard to erase. This should be the reason why gold is so popular."
Looking at the sunlight outside the cave, Chen Xu couldn't feel any warmth. Thinking about the alien's motive behind this and the human desire that had been carried for countless years, he couldn't help but shiver all over his body. He knew that in this moment, he might have discovered a fact that could shock the entire world.
At this moment, the entire archaeological community has come to a conclusion about this blank period in human evolutionary history, that is, they were deliberately created by advanced beings, and the purpose was naturally for this so-called Golden Aura!
"No matter what, this golden aura has a profound effect on me. I must seize every opportunity to obtain this inherited metal and see who is behind all of this!"
A hot and eager glint flashed in his eyes, as he felt the world around him become much clearer, and a surge of power bursting forth from within himself. At this moment, Chen Xu had established his fundamental goal for a considerable period of time in primitive society: to collect as many crystals as possible and strive to improve his cultivation!
To gain the right to walk in this world and most importantly, to gain the qualification to contact aliens.
Chen Xu didn't think that after these crystals turned into gold bricks, the aliens wouldn't come to harvest them. Maybe their harvesting cycle was a thousand years or ten thousand years, but they would definitely come, it just depended on Chen Xu's luck.
A crystal pendant that had lost its luster hung around her neck, hidden in the long hair. Chen Xu stood up and walked towards the bonfire.
There, the apes had already finished serving yesterday's leftover venison, which constantly emitted a fragrant aroma that made Chen Xuan's fingers move involuntarily!
As soon as the new leader arrived, the crowd of apes hurriedly brought up the roasted meat and let Chen Xu choose, with a respectful attitude in their expressions. It seemed that after saving the fire and defeating the old leader, Chen Xu's prestige in their hearts was already high enough!
Enduring the stifling smell on everyone's body, Chen Xu sat down among the crowd of apes and grabbed a piece of roasted deer meat, beginning to devour it in big mouthfuls.
After barely filling his stomach, Chen Xu let out a slight sigh of relief. Seeing that the remaining deer meat was not much, and he had already eaten enough, he waved his hand to signal to the surrounding apes who were constantly drooling that they could start eating. Naturally, the hunting team's people were the first wave of diners, while the rest only got to gnaw on bones.
Anyway, after all the apemen symbolically ate something, when the venison was thoroughly exhausted and everyone had nothing to eat, Chen Xu spoke in a not very proficient ape language, telling the situation of this forest, wanting to understand the information here in detail.
However, what disappointed him was that these people only knew where the fierce creatures were, but as for which place was where, it was really hard to figure out with their IQ.
So Chen Xu's first creative idea in this world was to make a simple map, but it ended up being completely empty.
In the midst of disappointment, Chen Xu took advantage of everyone's post-dinner rest time to simply ask No. 1 a few questions about the color-changing crystal, and learned that its color indeed deepened over time, which only further confirmed his own conclusion.
According to No. 1's statement, Chen Xu inferred that the time needed to form a crystal of such a deep color is only about one or two hundred years.
That is to say, this crystal was definitely collected by aliens one hundred or two hundred years ago.
And as for the next arrival of aliens, it is estimated that it will not be long before then. If Chen Xuan has not prepared well or has not reached a relatively high level of strength by then, what awaits him will be a fate worse than death. This point, Chen Xuan understands very clearly in his heart.
Moreover, Chen Xu had some ideas about aliens in his heart. He didn't want to spend his whole life stuck in the Stone Age, being a savage king!
He stood up, walked to the edge of the cliff, and looked at the dense primitive forest below. Chen Xuan thought quietly for a moment, and a sharp light flashed in his eyes. He understood that what he had to do next was to collect as many crystals as possible before the aliens arrived, to strengthen himself.
Although it is not known what level these aliens have reached, from the development of human beings, Chen Xu does not think that their individual combat power is really strong. As long as he himself is strong enough, when the time comes to choose, everything will be easy to say. This is both a challenge and an opportunity.
Moreover, according to Chen Xu, these aliens are very confident in the Earth, and they do not think that anyone on this primitive planet can use this golden energy, which is also the reason why they come here only after a long time.
From the distribution of crystals, looking at how primitive humans constantly migrated around the world, this collecting activity should be very special, and the production of this energy is also random.
So Chen Xu believed that even if aliens discovered something unusual at that time, they wouldn't think it was a big deal!
After all, Chen Xu understood that at this moment, the entire earth did not know how many upright people were released, and his area was just a very small part of it.
Of course, these are all Chen Xuan's speculations. The actual situation will depend on the development of events and whether he can unify many tribes and obtain their inheritance crystals.
