The First Demon of the Chan Sect

Endless Buddha Realm, Extreme East Star Domain, several dazzling streaks of light sliced through the pitch-black void.

Their massive fluctuations of Primordial Qi caused the surrounding stars to continuously shake.

"Big brother, how much longer until we reach our destination?" Li Qingquan closely followed behind Li Qingming, a hint of complaint in his voice.

Li Qingming closed his eyes to scan the Star Road Map, and said, "Don't rush, just another ten billion light-years to go!"

"Big brother, just put me in the Treasure Space!" Li Qingquan pleaded with a gloomy face, as his fluctuating Primordial Qi grew weaker and weaker.

"Hehe, Qinglingzi, Qingming is doing this for your own good!" Yin Xi, who was darting beside Li Qingming, chuckled and said, "Persisting in long journeys enhances control over True Yuan and can also speed up the circulation of True Yuan. Look at the Ga She brothers, how composed are they?"

Li Qingming turned to glance and said, "Uh... Okay!"

Li Qingming shook his head helplessly and transmitted a message to Yin Xi, "You've seen my embarrassment, senior!"

"Hehe..." Yin Xi smiled and then suddenly said, "This... Huh?"

"Whoosh!"

Suddenly, a dazzling silver light cut through the void and sped past so quickly that they could hardly see it clearly; the silver light barely missed a nearby star.

"What was that just now?" Yin Xi asked first, his face full of astonishment.

Li Qingming felt the object looked somewhat familiar, and quickly led the somewhat dazed group to chase after it.

Unfortunately, after searching for half an hour, they found nothing, and everyone stopped, standing atop the Star Dust that the silver light had grazed, to discuss.

"Lord, what was that just now?" Ga She came forward and asked respectfully.

"I'm not sure either, but that object looked very familiar. I can't remember where I've seen it before! Senior, do you know what it was?" Li Qingming furrowed his brow and turned to look at Yin Xi.

"Well, it was only a flash, but I did see what that thing was!" Yin Xi, frowning in recollection, said, "That thing was cone-shaped, like a funnel with edges and angles. It seems like there must be someone controlling it inside!"

"Cone-shaped, with edges and angles..." For some reason, the image of a Pyramid suddenly surfaced in Li Qingming's mind.

In the end, their search resulted in nothing, and they found no discoveries.

With no other options, Li Qingming chose to leave.

"There it is!" Just as the group prepared to leave, Li Qingming caught sight of a silver, Pyramid-shaped flying Magic Artifact, appearing in a flash from where it had vanished days earlier, tearing through the starry sky like lightning, vanishing in an instant.

"Damn, saw a ghost! It really is a Pyramid!" Li Qingming exclaimed as he swept the still-stunned crowd into his Sleeve Universe and tore through space to pursue it.

On Earth, where Li Qingming had lived in his previous life, Ancient Egypt was one of the oldest civilizations in world history. And the Pyramid was precisely a masterpiece of the Ancient Egyptian civilization, built in the desert with intricate structures and a majestic pyramid shape, a symbol of Ancient Egypt.

And what the world's people were most enthusiastic about was speculating the origins of the Pyramids.

Some said the Pyramids were a crystallization of the wisdom of the Ancient Egyptians, built using advanced principles of mechanics. This theory was the most plausible but least accepted by the people.

Others said that the Pyramids were remnants of a prehistoric civilization, a symbol of prehistoric society. This theory, though also controversial, exactly catered to people's curiosity for the exotic.

Some say that the pyramid is an alien spacecraft that ran out of energy and was thus left behind. This theory is the most widespread, yet it's also the most controversial.

Regardless of what's true, Li Qingming, having seen it here, certainly wouldn't pass up the chance to unravel all of these unsolved mysteries.

...

Not much time passed before Li Qingming followed the traces left by the silver pyramid to the Primordial Qi Crystal Wall.

Looking at the several hundred-zhang long gigantic hole on the Primordial Qi Crystal Wall, Li Qingming chuckled to himself: "Well, that makes things easier. Saves me the trouble of making my own way in!"

With a swish, he charged through, keen on continuing the pursuit of the pyramid's trail.

Unexpectedly, it seemed as if the pyramid knew it was being tracked; it waited on the other side of the Primordial Qi Crystal Wall. It was spinning round and round, releasing intense Power of Laws fluctuations.

"Whoosh!"

Suddenly, the pyramid's triangular doorway below swung open, and a dull yellow beam of light shot down, rolling straight toward Li Qingming.

"Damn, this is just like a scene out of a movie! Could it be that the aliens want to capture me and research my body and blood?" Stunned, Li Qingming swiftly dodged the beam and just stared blankly at the silvery, gleaming pyramid.

It was indeed as described by Yin Xi: silver, conical, with edges and angles, the base in a triangular form, sealed tight. Seemingly made of a metallic material, the surface of the pyramid was also etched with dense Tao Runes, looking quite majestic and spectacular.

"No wonder it can move so fast," Li Qingming muttered as he eyed the dazzling silver light, which turned out to be rich Spatial Law Power.

They intertwined and merged, forming the pyramid's means of tearing through space and traversing the Void.

"Whoosh!"

Seemingly not giving up until it caught Li Qingming, the pyramid cast down another dull yellow beam of light.

Rapid and forceful, the beam carried with it Space Power.

Just as Li Qingming was about to dodge, a thought struck him: if he wanted to understand all this, it would surely be more convenient to infiltrate from the inside. So, he simply gave up the idea of dodging and let the beam lift him up.

Surrounded by a hazy yellow mist, he rose along the beam towards the gigantic triangular entrance, and in an instant, the triangular base closed completely.

Li Qingming, brought up in the yellow light, looked around and was momentarily taken aback. Was this the inside of that pyramid?

This was clearly a mighty Space Spiritual Treasure, which had now taken him in and confined him in this independent space.

This was an Array Space, or one could also call it a massive cage, spanning several miles in area, vast and empty, as if still situated in the quiet cosmos.

Around the edges of this cage, the strange metallic walls were inscribed with numerous runes, depicting stars, flora and fauna, as well as mountains and rivers...

Each one carved with lifelike detail, continuously shimmering, as if coming to life.

"These flora and fauna are Tao Runes!" Li Qingming furrowed his brows, recalling the drawings left by Fire Feather in that room, among which was an entity ranked third named Technology Mysterious City.

Could it be that this pyramid is a result of the Technology Mysterious City?

With this thought, Li Qingming summoned the Qiankun Ruler, flew to the edge of the space, and swung the Qiankun Ruler at it.

The Qiankun Ruler flickered with a lustrous glow, and with the jade-green Yuqing True Essence, it transformed into a brick about a zhang in size, striking down with a fearsome force.
