682: System upgrade

Paradise Plate.

One of the Nine Forbidden Zones, the Cloudfall Skyriver.

Of the Nine Forbidden Zones, three are on the Surface, three are Underwater, two are in the Sky, and one is Underground.

The Cloudfall Skyriver is one of the three great Forbidden Grounds on the Surface, located in a remote corner of the Paradise Plate.

Its area is exceptionally vast, accounting for a full ten-thousandth of the entire Paradise Plate!

The overall form of the Cloudfall Skyriver is extremely massive; it can be roughly understood as a very long tunnel with a waterfall hanging at the very front.

But in essence, it doesn't have a single drop of water.

Only the outermost layer, due to the impact of powerful cyclones, collides to create something similar to water mist, so from a distance, it looks like a waterfall.

This Forbidden Ground has the lowest death rate among the Nine Forbidden Zones.

Of course, this doesn't mean it's safe; rather, its danger is written on its face!

The waterfall-like phenomenon on the outermost layer is called the Waterfall of Wind.

It is a very strong gas impact that not only possesses extremely powerful physical destructive force but also destroys one's spirit.

Even those messy abilities will be unable to be released normally or will be released chaotically under the agitation of the Waterfall of Wind.

For example, directly teleporting to the position where the Waterfall of Wind causes the most damage, and so on.

And its thickness is astonishing; the outermost layer of the Waterfall of Wind is a full hundred thousand kilometers thick!

Any Alien Race wishing to enter the Cloudfall Skyriver must push through the Waterfall of Wind.

To do this, one needs to be at least level 30, which means a Domain Warrior, to barely make progress within it.

Even weaker Domain Warriors cannot cross the Waterfall of Wind and die in the process.

This intensity means few Alien Races dare to try their luck inside.

The threshold is clearly displayed, and it is located on the strongest Paradise Plate.

Although it has the lowest death rate, it is thus given the title of the First Forbidden Ground!

But this does not mean that other Forbidden Grounds are not dangerous; after all, none of the Nine Forbidden Zones have ever been conquered to date.

Not even during the time of the former Overlord-level Civilizations!

At this moment, behind the Waterfall of Wind, a sneaky Humanoid life form was fumbling around.

[Wang Dadi: Xiao Lan, are you sure there are the Materials you want here?]

Wang Dadi asked his innate System within him, looking utterly bewildered.

One must know, he was currently only level 25, a fledgling Advanced Aerial Warrior, yet he was tricked by the System into this dreadful place, not only wasting time but also feeling like he could die at any moment.

After all, this place was simply too bizarre.

The area behind the Waterfall of Wind had no sun, moon, or stars, no towering mountains or yellow earth, no Alien Races, and not even air!

This place seemed to be the end of life!

This place gave Wang Dadi the feeling that no matter how many enhancement points he had, it wouldn't be enough to survive!

If not for the power of the System, he would not have been able to pass through that layer of the Waterfall of Wind.

[System: My detection capabilities are infallible. There are indeed core Materials here that can allow me to upgrade to 2.0 (Deep Blue Version). I am very certain of this.]

[But there are indeed dangers. I cannot guarantee 100% that I will find that Material, but even in the worst-case scenario, I have reserved a portion of power to send you out.]

[Wang Dadi: Why?]

[You usually always tell me to develop cautiously, so why are you in such a hurry this time?]

[I admit, I might have only been cautious and neglected development, but you didn't have to bring me directly to a place like this, did you?]

[My enhancement points will all be lost.]

[System: It's not what you think.]

[I told you before that my appearance and binding to you were to make you the protagonist of this planet, you know that, right?]

[Wang Dadi: I know, so haven't I been developing steadily?]

[If converted into time, the first semester of university has just ended, and I'm already level 25. Isn't this speed fast enough?]

[System: Whether it's fast or not depends on comparison, so I can't answer you, but I can see a progress bar above your head.]

[Wang Dadi: A progress bar? I have something like that above my head?]

[System: That's something only I can see because it's my mission.]

[It had been stable before, so I didn't say anything, but now I'll tell you.]

[That's the protagonist's progress bar! Once the progress bar reaches 100%, you will be the protagonist of this planet.]

[And your progress bar has not only stopped growing recently but has also started to recede!]

[This means someone is closer to being the protagonist of this planet than you!]

[So I must take you on an adventure to upgrade myself to 2.0 (Deep Blue Version) so I can help you improve your strength even more.]

[Otherwise, both you, who won't become the protagonist, and I, who won't complete the mission, will die!]

...One hundred thousand meters Underground, in the former Prophet Circle, at the residence of the Prophet Alien Race.

Chen Du replied, his voice calm.

He returned to his original form, but the other party did not know the name Chen Du, so he reported Wu La.

The Prophet Civilization possesses the ability of shared memory.

At that time, Durags knew his identity as Wu La precisely because of this ability and through Zhai Yao of the Dire Wolf Civilization.

The other Prophet Alien Races were the same.

Although Durags had contact with him later, the other party had already cut off this particular feature of shared memory at that time, causing him to unilaterally receive information.

Therefore, the Prophet Civilization and these newly emerged individuals did not know about the matters between him and Durags.

Regarding the Prophet Civilization, Chen Du had long considered that although they were Alien Races, they were not enemies.

He was exposed because of Zhai Yao of the Dire Wolf Civilization, and at that time, he was about to leave the Underground.

It was obvious that there were Prophet Alien Races present at the scene then, who witnessed his Ten Secret Treasures with their own eyes!

And they decided to help him.

The evidence was the thunder martial banana that was later delivered to his doorstep, as well as the eerie Yin Wind.

At that time, he failed to discover the other party, which indicated that the one lurking near him was a Domain Warrior.

Chen Du remembered that there was also a Domain chasing him at that time, which later mysteriously shattered; this was probably the Prophet Alien Race, hidden in the shadows, helping him.

And since the Prophet Alien Race does not have Domain Warriors, it could only be a newly emerged Prophet Alien Race, and it is even possible that the one present at that time was the very individual before him!

All this evidence was sufficient to prove that the Prophet Alien Race was not an enemy.

Of course, one cannot generalize, nor can one indiscriminately protect.

Even if this Prophet Alien Race before him was an exception, he couldn't kill him; this was the confidence brought by his strength!

However, this probability was very small; the ability to share memories meant they would be united.

"So it's you. I didn't expect you to return."

The other party's tone softened considerably, and the Killing Intent swirling around Chen Du also vanished.

As Chen Du expected, after seeing his appearance, the other party did not shout 'evil demon' and call for battle like other Alien Races.

"My name is Qing Feng. I was born into the Green Bottle Civilization, but even if the Prophet Civilization had not been destroyed today, I would still be a member of the Green Bottle Civilization."

"Now that you have returned to the Prophet Circle, is there anything you wish to ask?"

This Qing Feng was quite straightforward and immediately stated his position. He didn't ask Chen Du why he knew him; perhaps this was due to the nature of the Prophet Civilization.

They knew too many answers, so for many things, only a result was needed. Chen Du's actions and demeanor proved that he had grasped certain matters.

As for why and from where he grasped them, Qing Feng didn't care.

"Yes."

Chen Du was also very direct:

"I want to know what the metal you took out of the Primordial Mine was, and why it led to the subsequent War of Earthly Chaos?"
