Chapter 894 Returning Home
In He's courtyard, a man sat cross-legged on the floor in the corridor, holding a dark green stone in his hand.
In the Soul Stone, Lu Chen's consciousness was undergoing training, as if he was climbing an endless ladder, and his consciousness was being polished and sharpened.
He immersed his soul in this stone, as if he was exploring in the dark, and there was strong resistance. The sense of oppression wanted to squeeze his mind out. In the process of resisting, he slowly became stronger.
Unlike what Lu Chen had imagined before, this stone didn't have much mystery. It was like a whetstone, and his intention was the knife.
Using soul stone to cultivate one's own mind can greatly improve efficiency and speed, but after all, it is a process that accumulates over time.
At Chu Zihang's suggestion, Lu Chen returned to the dragon world so that he could get the most time to practice.
Of course, they did not dare to stay in this world for too long, because no matter how he adjusted time in space, every year that passed in the dragon world, the world would rotate for another year.
This means that people grow up and get older.
Lu Chen cherishes every minute and every second in this world, so he doesn't want to use this place as a training place.
Chu Zihang's parents have been urging him, but Mr. Uesugi is getting old after all, and he lived an irregular life in his early years. If it weren't for Lu Chen's vitality to help sort it out, he might not be able to live for a few more years.
On the contrary, in Kassel College, Principal Angers is still healthy and is currently considering retiring and handing over the secret party to a new successor.
Lu Chen stood up. It had been another year since he returned with Chu Zihang and the others. Caesar and Nuonuo's children had all run away, and Yuan Zhisheng's daughter had already started to go to kindergarten.
The passage of time makes him always want to reminisce about the past.
"Is the time almost up?"
The soft body hugged him from behind, and the soft voice came, it was Eri Yi.
"It's time to go back. Maybe we should take in another world."
Lu Chen turned around and hugged Eli Yi. Counting the time, they were approaching the point where the next world would open.
When he planned to break through the world next time, he made a plan with Chu Zihang to let Chu Zihang take over a world as a home ground for training, so that they could waste time unscrupulously.
Huiliyi had already said goodbye to her family. After Lu Chen informed Chu Zihang and Xia Mi, he chose to return.
A white light flashed and they returned to the familiar room. Lu Chen and others chose to go to the equipment enhancement hall.
Their team currently still has some assets, and for the sake of the safety of the next mission world, they decided to strengthen them.
Of course, the person in charge of strengthening is Eri.
Chu Zihang and Xia Mi were transferring equipment, Hui Liyi was strengthening it, and Lu Chen was thinking about which piece of equipment he should use the enlightenment stone on.
He is currently most satisfied with the Berserker suit, but the Enlightenment Stone can only enlighten one piece of equipment.
After thinking again and again, Lu Chen finally put the blue soul ring and the enlightenment stone into the bronze cauldron together. This ring has a strengthening effect on the soul. It also has a comprehensive bonus on the outward release of one's own power and can be used for a long time.
His own ideas and laws are firm development directions, and he believes that he will not be eliminated in the future.
The enlightenment stone was 100% successful, so he chose to do it himself.
After hearing the beep, he took out the blue soul from the bronze cauldron and checked its new properties.
【Blue Spirit】

Quality: Fairy Spirit
Equipment type: Ring
Wearing requirements: 187 spirit points, 190 strength points, bound to Pioneer No. 009 for use.
Details: It is carefully crafted by the supporter ████ using materials such as blue soul, soul evil crystal, stone of intention, Clark green gold, etc. It has extremely strong soul source and soul conductivity, and is used by the pioneers. After No. 009 was enlightened with the Enlightenment Stone, wonderful changes occurred.

Evaluation: The new soul is gestating
Rating: 950 points
After Blue Soul was turned into a growth-oriented equipment, its functionality has undergone significant changes. The increase value in all aspects has been improved, especially the original skill, and the increase in true damage made Lu Chen very satisfied.
He tried to communicate with Lan Po's soul, but he felt that it was still in chaos and needed to be nourished and grown slowly.
The only thing that dissatisfied Lu Chen about this piece of equipment was that its growth required the consumption of inheritance crystals, and it was a gold-swallowing beast, which made him a bit uncomfortable for a warrior who was used to growing by killing people.
Fortunately, the growing conditions were not too harsh, so Lu Chen just wanted to cut more leeks.
Eri's Book of Truth is a lot more troublesome to grow up. It has to absorb magic skill scrolls, not only swallowing gold, but also picking things up.
Chu Zihang searched the market for several days before gathering the "materials" to upgrade the Book of Truth, which now can reach the fairy level.
That is to say, God's Abandoned Land does not have this kind of skill scroll, otherwise they can have a lot of cost left.
Lu Chen hopes that in the next world, there will be a suitable person who can help Hui Liyi complete the Book of Truth in one step.
Chu Zihang's growth equipment is currently the Death Note. Chu Zihang believes that this special equipment has certain practicality and plans to plan a reasonable growth plan.
As a result, Xia Mi became the only person in the Zhutian Sightseeing Adventure Group who did not have growth equipment. However, growth equipment depends on fate. Sometimes even if you encounter it, it may not be suitable for you and you cannot force it.
Five hours later, outside the equipment enhancement hall, some people had sad faces and some were happy.
Lu Chen and others walked out of the door, each looking very energetic.
With the help of Eri, everyone's equipment has been strengthened, and the final savings of the Zhutian Tourist Adventure Group have been spent.
Back in the room, Natsumi and Eriki cooked together and completed a sumptuous dinner.
Halfway through the meal, several people received a space prompt.
[In 3 hours, we will begin to enter the mission world, please be prepared, Pioneer 009. 】
[Target World: Native World No. 123164]
[It has been detected that the Pioneer is holding an ‘unreliable homecoming invitation’. Do you want to use it? 】
In front of the dining table, Lu Chen and the others looked at each other. Eryi put her hand on the back of his hand and nodded towards him.
Lu Chen didn't hesitate this time. The red invitation appeared between his fingers and floated like smoke.
[Use successfully, start redirecting the mission world for the Pioneer...]
[Positioning successful, the target world has been changed. 】
[Target World: Native World No. 81]
[The planned arrival location is extremely dangerous. Pioneers please be prepared. The teleportation will begin in 59 minutes and 21 seconds. 】
"Brother Lu, we believe in you, and you must also believe in us."
Chu Zihang's face was expressionless and his eyes were firm.
Lu Chen smiled and said, "Go on and eat. Once you're full, you can go on your way."
Xia Mi complained at the side, "Senior Brother Lu, what you said is very unlucky."
Eryi snickered and lightly stepped on Lu Chen under the table.
Lu Chen changed his mind, "I made a mistake. We should enjoy the food. My hometown may not be very quiet and we can't eat such food."
Several people clinked glasses at the dining table, and Lu Chen swept away these delicacies, which were at least of epic quality, like a storm.
Until time ran out, they received another prompt from space.
[The transmission is about to begin, ten, nine, eight...]
When the countdown was over, the dazzling white light came down and several people disappeared into the room.
An unprecedented feeling of weightlessness and tearing came over Lu Chen, even stronger than the last time he was transported to the world of Zhetian.
He seemed to be traveling through a long tunnel, seeing the void and the sun in front of his eyes, and seeing the stars flashing and extinguishing.
[Target World: Native World No. 81]
[Number of people transported to the origin space this time: 51 explorers]
[The number of people transported to the final space this time: 39 explorers]
[Number of people transported to fairy space this time: 37 explorers]
[Number of people transported to Tiandao space this time: 41 explorers]
[Number of people transported to Hongmeng space this time: 33 explorers]
[Number of people transported in arcane space this time: 36 explorers]
[This world is a large open native world and is not the first time to explore. 】
[Due to the limited cost of the Source of Time and Space, only two time nodes are open to explorers, and investment will be based on the explorers' comprehensive strength, style, and team situation. 】
【Investing...】
[A reasonable world identity is being arranged for the pioneers...]
Lu Chen's ears kept hearing the notification sounds from the origin space. Although he was still in the teleportation tunnel, his consciousness began to become clearer. The team channel function was disabled during the teleportation process.
When he heard that six dimensions had descended on his hometown at the same time, his heart tightened.
And when he heard that two time nodes would be opened, and the space would be released according to the conditions of the explorers, he was even more anxious. If he and Chu Zihang were separated, things would be a bit troublesome.
The beep in the space sounded again. Since Eriyi and the others could not be contacted at this time, Lu Chen could only calm down and check the available identities.
[The following identities are available, please check for pioneers:]
1. Villagers at the foot of the Martial God Mountain: The villagers living at the foot of the Martial God Mountain have a clean life experience and have a certain chance of joining when they select disciples at the Martial God Mountain every year.
The minimum overall world rating required to select this status: A-
2. Outer disciple of Wushen Mountain: You are already an outer disciple of Wushen Mountain and have good room for advancement.
The minimum overall world rating required to select this status: A
3. Handyman of the Ancient Dragon Cave: You are a handyman who was brought back by a big shot in the Ancient Dragon Cave out of kindness. You can come into contact with the world of practitioners and have a large window of opportunity.
Minimum overall world rating required to select this status: A+
Lu Chen looked a little confused when he looked at these identities, and felt a little disappointed in his heart.
At first glance, the names and introductions of these identities would not be the forces that existed in his time. In other words, he failed to return to the time point he wanted to go back to.
Although he had expected it, he was still disappointed. After all, space could not allow him to travel to the safest era.
He continued browsing, still adhering to the principle of choosing a difficult identity, and directly pulled the menu to the end.
Finally, three identities were noted that need to be considered.
51. Alien God: You are an alien god who came from outside the realm and stole the ancient power of this world. You are feared by all living beings and are hostile to the God of War Mountain.
The minimum overall world rating required to choose this status: S-
63. Witch Zhu: You are the Great Witch Zhu of the Witch King Valley, with a very high status. You can practice the ancient witchcraft in the valley at will.
The minimum overall world rating required to select this identity: S
72. Returner: You are a rare returnee with divine blood. You are wandering in the world. You seem to be lonely and helpless, and no one cares about you. In fact, you have already been noticed by all the major forces.
The minimum overall world rating required to select this identity: S
Lu Chen listened to the countdown to identity selection in his ears and thought calmly.
Although this world is his hometown, he has returned to a completely unfamiliar era and must make a safer choice.
Lu Chen guessed that the option of Outer God was related to his title. He felt that since there was this option, it meant that his hometown used to be a big world with the universe as the scope, perhaps similar to the Zhetian World, so there was "Outer God"
He was said to be an alien god, but he thought it should be similar in nature to alien visitors. He might have some natural allies, but he was also hostile to the local forces.
After thinking about it, Lu Chen eliminated this option.
Then there is Wu Zhu. The description is very beautiful. It is estimated that he can get a lot of skills for free, which will be very helpful for his Martial God body. However, Lu Chen does not know the positioning of this force. If he chooses it rashly, he may limit his actions in the world.
After much thought, Lu Chen decided to choose "returner". This was the best description of his condition, and the origin of the divine blood also seemed to be explained by the local residents.
After confirming the option, he heard the space prompt.
[The second time travel is about to take place. Pioneers please be prepared for the impact. 】
