Chapter 14: Spiritual Value Soars, Pioneer of Civilization
Late at night.
The snow is falling harder.
The temperature dropped even lower, estimated to be close to minus 20 degrees Celsius.
The snow on the ground was half a meter deep.
Linjiang City is located in the central part of Daxia Kingdom. This is the first time that it has encountered such heavy snow since the establishment of Daxia Kingdom hundreds of years ago.
Yang Fan left home quietly like a ghost in the dark night.
He strode into the stairwell, each step landing without a sound.
This is one of the little tricks for applying the power of lightness and agility.
Yang Fan bent his legs slightly, jumped up on the spot, easily crossed the railing that was more than one meter high, and fell straight to the first floor.
Every time he descended two meters, he quickly stretched out a hand and pressed the wall quickly.
When the palm touches the wall, a suction force is generated out of thin air, which in turn forms resistance, instantly reducing the falling speed.
The superpower greatly improved his reaction speed and greatly enhanced his body coordination, so he performed this set of movements smoothly.
Just two seconds later.
"Snapped!"
Yang Fan landed smoothly on the first floor.
Even though the sound was very subtle and completely covered by the wind, he was not satisfied: "It only made a sound when it landed 20 meters. I need to practice more."
Yang Fan took a deep breath, moved his body, and rushed into the vast snow and wind.
He was like a knight in a movie or novel, with his feet stepping on the white snow, leaving only shallow footprints behind him.
The snow swirled down, quickly covering the footprints.
His figure turned into a gust of wind. The distance between two steps reached an astonishing five meters, and he could fly as much as twenty-five meters per second.
Calculate this.
It takes less than four seconds to run a hundred meters.
Compared with this, the world champion is far behind.
When he was still more than ten meters away from the community wall, Yang Fan suddenly spread his arms and soared into the air like an eagle.
He climbed over the two-meter-high wall effortlessly, flew a full thirty-five meters, and finally landed gracefully on the snow.
After landing.
He ran forward without stopping, and with the help of the inertia of the leap in the air, his speed became even faster.
Yang Fan felt extremely happy and couldn't help shouting, "Great!"
The reason why he ran out in the middle of the night was to use his agility ability to the fullest and test the effect of the ability.
Tens of meters away.
There are eighteen buildings in the community.
A little girl is curled up in her mother's arms.
Her mother was wrapped in a blanket and a thick quilt, holding a flashlight in her left hand and a book in her right hand, telling a story to her daughter who couldn't sleep.
Since there was no electricity at home, the mother and daughter could only use this method to barely keep out the cold.
The little girl suddenly pointed out the window and exclaimed in surprise: "Mom, I just saw someone flying out from there."
What she was talking about was the scene of Yang Fan jumping over the wall.
Due to the high reflectivity of the snow and the fact that Yang Fan was wearing black clothes, the little girl had sharp eyesight and happened to see this scene.
The young mother simply didn't believe it: "The snow outside is so thick that it's hard for adults to walk. How could someone fly over the fence?"
The little girl pouted and said in defense: "But I..."
The young mother interrupted her daughter and said, "Do you want to hear the story? If not, go back to bed."
The little girl quickly shouted, "Listen!"

the other side.
Yang Fan had no idea that his whereabouts were seen by a little girl.
He was speeding through the deserted streets when he suddenly leaped into the air and landed on a two-meter-high bush.
He stepped lightly on a branch with his right foot, and his body rose a little, then landed lightly on the top of a tall tree.
He exerted force with his feet again, and his whole body flew forward, drawing an "S" shaped curve in the air, and landed on the top of another tree.
"call!"
The cold wind swept through.
Yang Fan flew out with the help of the wind, leaving a 20-meter drift arc, lightly touched the branch at the top of the third tree, and continued to fly forward.
He kept jumping between the trees, his body faster than a ghost, just like a peerless hero in martial arts movies and TV series.
If an ordinary person witnessed this scene, their jaw would drop in shock.
five minutes later.
He galloped for nearly eight kilometers in one breath and finally stopped.
This place is already in the suburbs, and you can see the Linshui River that runs around the city.
The latter is the eighth largest river in Daxia Kingdom and also the water source for Linjiang City.
Yang Fan stood on the top of a maple tree and laughed: "It's so fucking cool!"
The depression he had felt upon hearing about the old man's death disappeared completely after this unprecedented experience of riding the wind.
The maple tree swayed in the cold wind, but he stood firmly on a branch as thick as a thumb, maintaining perfect balance.
Yang Fan looked into the distance, his sight passed over the wide river, swept across the distant fields, then reached the horizon, and finally looked up at the sky.
Snowflakes are flying.
The starlight was completely blocked out.
He murmured softly, "I wonder when I can see the starry sea of the original world with my own eyes."
He had seen the night sky of the original world many times in his dreams.
It was an infinitely brilliant and dazzling ocean of stars, much more magnificent than the starry sky of the Blue Star.
at this time.
Yang Fan suddenly felt that the supernatural power in his body inexplicably trembled, and he had a subtle connection with the two beings above the sky.
It's a feeling that's hard to describe in words.
It was a bit like a seedling basking in the long-lost sunshine, or a bit like a child hearing the call of its mother.
The illusory sound of heartbeat rang in my ears out of thin air.
Yang Fan fell into a very strange state.
I don’t know how long it took.
He suddenly woke up.
The snow had stopped by then.
Yang Fan looked around in confusion, then he realized where he was.
He glanced down at his watch and was immediately shocked: "Three o'clock in the morning? So I have been standing on this tree for more than two hours?"
Yang Fan suddenly remembered something and said silently: "Check the properties!"
Several lines of illusory fonts appeared.
【attribute】
Physical value: 6.6
Spirit: 14.2
Yang Fan's eyes were fixed on the number "14.2" and he was stunned.
He remembered clearly that his previous spirit value was 8.7 points.
This means that after standing on the treetop and being blown by the cold wind for more than two hours, his spirit value unexpectedly soared by 5.5 points.
This is incredible!
It took Yang Fan a while to come back to his senses, and he whispered softly: "Is this the effect of the 'Original Astrology'?"
Just now he sensed two strange existences and fell into a magical trance state. A message inexplicably appeared in his mind, telling him that this was - the original astrology.
Yang Fan was confused: "What on earth is the original astrology?"
Apart from the name, he knew nothing about the original astrology.
Yang Fan shook his head: "Forget it, let's go back first."

Go to the capital.
Inside the secret base.
General Lou came especially early today.
"Wow!"
Waves surged in the pond.
A stunningly beautiful face, with a lazy look as if she had not yet woken up, emerged from the water.
It's the mermaid.
Although General Lou had dealt with her many times, he was still stunned when he saw her like this for the first time.
The mermaid greeted: "Morning!"
General Lou replied somewhat awkwardly: "Good morning!"
He was about to speak, but the other party beat him to the punch.
The mermaid smiled and said, "If I'm guessing correctly, the information the general wants to know today is related to supernatural powers, right?"
General Lou was surprised, but his old face remained calm: "Indeed."
The mermaid continued, "Major General Wu has been awakened for a month, but his supernatural powers have not changed at all. You want to know if there is any way to cultivate supernatural powers, right?"
General Lou finally couldn't hold it anymore, and a look of shock appeared on his old face: "Please teach me, Miss Jiana!"
The mermaid chuckled and said, "I can only point out the direction, but as for how to obtain the specific cultivation method, the Canglan people can only rely on themselves."
General Lou was a little confused: "I'd like to hear more details."
The mermaid organized her words and began to talk.
"In the first stage of the civilized world descending into the primordial world, the primordial laws will merge with the origin of the civilized world to form a magical existence called the 'primordial astrology'.
"Different civilizations have different original star images. The sum of all original star images is called the Starry Sky Map.
"It's not just our Meijia civilization that calls it that. This is the consensus of the entire civilized world."
General Lou couldn't help but ask, "The method of cultivating supernatural powers should be related to the star map, right?"
The mermaid affirmed: "Of course!"
She continued, “To some extent, you can understand the star map as a gift from the primordial world to the civilized world.
“The starry sky map of each civilized world is most suitable for the life of that civilization.
"As long as you look at the star map, you will have a chance to obtain the cultivation method, so I said that the Canglan people can only rely on themselves."
General Lou exclaimed: "It's amazing."
He asked: "How can we obtain the star map of Canglan Star?"
The mermaid replied: "Individuals who have the ability to sense the original stars are called 'pioneers of civilization' by various civilizations. They are the most outstanding and great people in every civilization.
"When the forerunners of the Blue Man civilization collected all the original astrological images, you naturally obtained the star map of Blue Man planet."
General Lou asked, "How do you sense the original astrology?"
The mermaid shook her head. “I told you, I can’t help you.”
General Lou sighed: "Okay, thank you for your advice."
The mermaid reminded, “Most civilizations that survived in the primordial world usually sensed the first primordial star sign within three years and obtained the star map within five years.
"It cannot be more than six years at the latest. Otherwise, Blue Planet will not be able to train enough warriors to face the second stage of the disaster."
General Lou suddenly felt a strong sense of urgency: "I understand."
Because the first stage of the Canglan Star's arrival in the original world has almost passed for a year, the Canglan people don't have much time left.
The mermaid said "Good luck to you" and sank underwater.
General Lou stood there for a while, then turned around with a serious expression and walked towards the gate.
Although Miss Jana did not say it, he had a feeling that the other party did not seem optimistic that the Canglan people would obtain the Star Map within five years.
Inside the underwater lair.
The mermaid lazily lay there, muttering in the language of the Meijia tribe, "A year has passed, and only a few Canglan people have awakened their special abilities.
“The Canglan people are obviously a race with very low potential. The probability of them obtaining the Starry Sky Map within five years is estimated to be no more than 10%.
"Unlike our Mega Civilization, where our pioneers sensed the first primordial star sign in just one and a half years, and mastered the star map in two and a half years."
She complained again: "I really don't understand why the Holy High Priest spent so much manpower and resources to send me to Canglan Star."
The mermaid originally thought that the Blue People were a race with great potential, but everything she saw and heard disappointed her.
