C374 Spatial Channel
The guard looked at Shen Lang and Que De behind Qin Lang, then threw two cards into a device while putting the bag of gold into his own pocket.
After a while, Qin Lang turned around and walked back. He handed each Shen Lang and Que De a bullet shaped translucent crystal with a number engraved on it.
"You two, take this with you. There is a guide line in the valley, follow the guide line and line up in a cave. In about two hours, the spatial passageway will open. Don't lose this crystal, it's a two-way key, you can still use it when you come out. " Qin Lang said, "Leave your cars here for now. When you come out, just go to Wolf Head Mountain and find me there."
"Alright, it's been hard on you, Brother Wolf." Que De said.
"What kind of courtesy?" Qin Lang glared at Que De, "Be careful after you enter."
After saying a few more words, Qin Lang left.
Shen Lang and Que De took the crystal and walked into the valley. After following the guide line for about ten minutes, they entered a damp and gloomy cave.
The cave was as big as a stadium, and there were hundreds of people waiting for them. There was a circle of light bulbs on the stone wall, but the lighting was very low. The air was flickering with moisture, making crackling sounds of electric currents.
The sanitary conditions in the cave were also quite poor. One could see traces of manual cleaning on the ground, but there were still cigarette butts, wrapping paper, fruit peels and other rubbish everywhere.
There were quite a number of seats in the cave, but they were not all proper tables and chairs either. Because of the humidity of the cave, these wooden blocks were covered with mold and there were many people sitting on them.
Shen Lang and Que De found a more spacious corner. Seeing that there was no one around, Shen Lang quietly took out two folding chairs from the Space Ring and placed them on the ground.
The two of them lay down on the reclining chairs, lit up a cigarette, and slowly waited for the spatial passageway to open.
Fortunately, Que De had bought a bunch of daily necessities and placed them into the Space Ring, saving them a lot of inconvenience.
Inside the cave, there were also a few carts selling folding chairs, army beds, cigarettes, wine, tea, snacks and fruits. However, the prices were all very high. A folding chair that cost only a few hundred dollars on the outside was actually priced at eight thousand dollars. There was no need to mention drinks and beverages, even a wrinkled rotten apple could cost more than a hundred yuan.
However, most of those who took this sort of spatial tunnel weren't lacking in money. The business of those small carts were indeed quite good.
Que De also called a small cart over and bought two boxes of fresh fruits. He actually spent more than 3000 yuan in one go.
The hawker on the cart had a fierce look on his face as his eyeballs rolled around. From a single glance, one could tell that he was not a good person. When he saw that the folding chairs of Shen Lang and Que De were not the same as the ones they sold, he was even planning to ask how the two of them brought the folding chairs in from the outside. However, after seeing the source energy badge on their chest with the True Rank of the fourth level, he bitterly shut his mouth.
Although these hawkers only dared to do business here with the backing of their big boss, experts in True Rank were people they did not dare to offend.
Shen Lang and Que De waited for more than three hours before they heard a low hum coming from the cave.
An azure-green spatial passageway appeared atop a caved in stone wall.
More than a hundred people walked out of the spatial tunnel, quickly passing through the crowd and leaving the cave.
Presumably, they all came from the Mid-continent.
A few minutes later, a tall old man with white hair and a white beard walked out of the spatial passageway. The elder's sharp gaze swept across the crowd as he slowly said, "Line up and enter one by one. Don't make any noise."
The old man's strength was so great that no one in the cave dared to cause any trouble. They all walked into the cave in a straight line.
"Let's go, we're getting in." Que De threw away his cigarette and stood up, "But this flight attendant is really old."
"What flight attendant? He's a conductor after all." Shen Lang said.
Shen Lang and Que De followed at the back of the team and slowly walked forward.
After waiting in line for over ten minutes, it was finally their turn to enter.
The old man glanced at the crystal in their hands and let them in.
Inside each of these crystals, there was a strange wave of Origin Energy that couldn't be faked.
Shen Lang also slowly discovered that in Three Layers Heaven World, other than industries that relied on source energy as a foundation, there were many other scientific and technological fields that were inferior to Mortal World.
At the very least, other than the capsules and hydrogen bombs provided by the army and the hydrogen energy vehicles with high penetration rate, they did not find anything else in the Three Layers Heaven World that was ahead of the rest.
The gas burning cars were still running along the streets. The speed of the car powered by Source Energy was about the same as that of a high-speed rail, which was far slower than an airplane, but the cost was even higher. The distance between the two stops of the bus was simply several thousand dollars.
People of the Three Layers Heaven World always had a feeling of superiority, and felt that people of the Mortal World were all trash, but were ignorant and didn't know it. If it were not for the innate advantage of abundant source energy between heaven and earth, the so-called super great nations in Three Layers Heaven World, such as Yanhua Empire, would be far inferior to the great military nations in terms of military and scientific strength.
Moreover, even with such good source energy resources, it was wasted on the people of this world.
Almost everyone focused on cultivating their Origin Energy, but they never paid attention to the forging of bodily functions. Any of the fist manuals in the Mortal World would become a treasure in the eyes of the Source Cultivator.
Artifact was a bright spot for the Source Cultivator s, but unfortunately, the method to refine it had long since been lost. Shen Lang also heard from Que De that there was also something called "Source Strike" in the Three Layers Heaven World. It was similar to a martial arts technique which was divided into four ranks, Heaven, Earth, Profound, Yellow, and could quickly increase one's attack power for a short period of time after training.
However, the inheritance of the Source Strike was tens of thousands of years earlier than the refining method.
While Shen Lang was lost in thought, he had already followed the team and slowly walked to the other side of the space channel.
When they walked out of the space channel, Shen Lang looked up and noticed an ancient bronze mirror suspended at the top of the tunnel.
Qin Lang once said that these tunnels that were created by spatial cracks were unstable inside and needed a magical equipment as support to maintain the state of the tunnels.
This would also explain why a Source Cultivator of the ninth level of True Rank was arranged to receive anyone who entered or left the spatial passageway. In addition to the deterrence of force, the operation of magical equipment required a huge amount of Origin Energy to support. If it was any other Source Cultivator, they would have been sucked dry of their Origin Energy already.
