Chapter 575: Development and Lying Flat

After talking with this group of humans, Lu Xun learned that the spirit star where these humans lived was called Green Star by them.

It is called Green Star because the vegetation coverage rate of this spirit star is especially high.

On the spirit star, unlike Lan Xing which has four great oceans, the oceans and continents are interwoven, and water resources are distributed extremely evenly.

This makes it so that there are almost no deserts on this spirit star.

Before the ascension, Green Star's civilization actually developed relatively slowly, far less developed than Lan Xing.

Among them, the humans are mostly of Eastern appearance, very similar to Eastern people, unlike Lan Xing where there are three skin tones.

Compared to Lan Xing, the ethnicity of Green Star is purer.

Since they are both humans, the relationship between the two spirit stars has become extremely good.

The strongest of Green Star is at the Tenth Realm, and they have more than one Tenth Realm expert.

The reason they are stronger than Lan Xing is first because their ascension took longer, and second because their several billion people are all equivalent to Easterners, giving them a greater racial advantage and also greater unity.

Unity, at times, is a tremendous advantage.

Although competition can bring a sense of crisis, it is the driving force of progress.

But after Lan Xing's ascension, the crisis is already strong enough; at this point, what is actually needed more is unity.

For example, after Lu Xun became the master of Lan Xing, he forced those Western fellows to cooperate with the East, making Lan Xing more united than before.

Consequently, Lan Xing's development over these twenty years has also surpassed the past.

"Do you want to join Lan Xing?"

That day, a group of alien peoples came, wanting to join Lan Xing.

These alien peoples are not weak in strength; their strongest is at the peak of the Nine Realms, yet they have long been unable to break through to the Tenth Realm.

Lu Xun did not immediately agree, but instead sought out Yun Shuyue and inquired about the situation of this group of alien peoples.

"They are the Cloud Clan; they are relatively gentle and not an evil race."

Yun Shuyue said.

Cloud Clan!

A race that lives in the clouds.

The spirit star they originally inhabited was perpetually covered by thick cloud layers, so the entire race lives above the cloud layer.

Over a hundred years ago, their spirit star was destroyed; after enduring great hardships, they arrived at Heavenly Ox Domain, preparing to redevelop their civilization here.

Originally, they did not intend to join any other spirit star.

But after hearing of Lan Xing's strength, they decided to join Lan Xing and once again set foot on the Starry Sky Ancient Road.

Lu Xun convened the Heavenly Dao Conference; after discussion, they decided to take in the Cloud Clan.

Lan Xing is indeed strong now, but experts above the Seventh Realm are actually not as strong as those of other second-tier spirit stars.

Especially those spirit stars that reached Heavenly Ox Domain early.

They ascended earlier, and have more powerful experts.

Lan Xing's strength is due to Lu Xun holding it up.

Lan Xing still needs to absorb more strong individuals.

Like the Cloud Clan, there are not few who want to join Lan Xing.

But Lu Xun has not accepted too many.

Some races, even if they are not overtly evil on the surface, clearly harbor ill intentions.

Half a year later.

Lan Xing and the major spirit stars almost simultaneously set out, preparing to enter the next Ancient Road Node.

Before leaving Heavenly Ox Domain, Lan Xing left some seeds here.

Heavenly Ox Domain is a rare nebula in the starry sky still controlled in hand by the various clans.

If Lan Xing's ascension fails in the future,

at least, there will still be humans here continuing to reproduce and develop.

So as not to face extinction.

As for the humans of other spirit stars, to Lan Xing people, even if they are also humans, due to different civilizations, they are not considered their own civilization.

Race is one aspect.

The most important thing is still civilization.

Of course, like the Green Clan, they still share some commonalities with Lan Xing, such as the mythological figures that Lan Xing has; they actually also possess a portion of them.

This leads Lu Xun to suspect that some figures in mythology may actually exist, and may very well be beings of immortal-god level.

Because their influence is too great, their stories have spread throughout the starry sky and then become known to all clans.

For example, Nüwa, Lu Xun feels she might possibly exist.

Otherwise, where would the Nüwa imperial bloodline come from?

As for whether the other party is the same as in mythology, that is unclear.

History becomes story, story becomes legend, legend ultimately becomes myth.

In this process, many things will gradually become distorted.

"A little slower!"

In the dark universe, Lu Xun does his utmost to slow Lan Xing's speed.

The Green Clan people told Lu Xun.

They actually previously entered the next Ancient Road Node, but unable to withstand the attack of alien species in the starry sky, they had to turn back and stayed in Heavenly Ox Domain for a full twenty-odd years.

During this period, they would periodically go to nearby scattered nebulae that are not chained like the Starry Sky Ancient Road, using these nebulae to develop.

The Demon Star is the same.

This time, the eight Spirit Stars acted simultaneously, but everyone was not united.

Some Spirit Stars would make small moves.

For example, they deliberately slowed their speed in the Dark Universe, letting other Spirit Stars go out first.

That way, other Spirit Stars would be attacked by more Star-space Alien Species.

Their own pressure would then be greatly reduced.

So, the Green Tribe advised Lu Xun to slow down as much as possible.

However, the speed cannot be slowed without limit.

Because the pressure in the Dark Universe is also considerable.

The Dark Beasts here are too terrifying.

Upon reaching this region, almost every entry into the Dark Universe would face endless attacks from Dark Beasts.

The Dark Beast tide is unknown how many times more fierce than twenty years ago.

Dark Beasts of the Ninth and Tenth Realms are everywhere.

If one stays longer in the Dark Universe, it might even attract Dark Beasts of the Eleventh Realm or higher.

Fortunately, Lan Xing has Lu Xun.

Now Lu Xun fears no Dark Beast of the Eleventh Realm.

Lan Xing thus stayed in the Dark Universe for a considerable time before breaking out.

After breaking out, they arrived at a splendid nebula.

Soon after breaking out, some space rifts appeared nearby.

Star-space Alien Species arrived.

"Get ready for battle!"

The battle commenced.

"We should be the last to break out, right!"

Lu Xun looked toward the starry sky.

For a long time, no other stars twinkled.

With him on Lan Xing, they should be the last to break out.

Let the other Spirit Stars bear the pressure.

Even if they were the last to break out, the invading Star-space Alien Species should not be underestimated.

They are numerous and strong, entering and exiting through the space rifts, countless in number.

From time to time, Tenth Realm alien species attack.

This is still the result of the eight Spirit Stars dispersing the pressure.

If a single Spirit Star charged in alone, even Lan Xing would find it somewhat taxing.

Although Lu Xun is formidable, the alien species are endless; fighting them would consume how much strength.

Strength should be conserved whenever possible.

Lu Xun's current deficit of Dark Energy remains large.

In his body, only a small portion of his chaotic cells are filled with Dark Energy, while many more are not filled.

Now, it's just right.

The pressure is not great.

Just a few days later, Lan Xing opened the Rainbow Bridge.

"Shu Yue, it's up to you."

"Mm!"

Lu Xun personally took charge of Lan Xing, letting Yun Shu Yue lead the large force to explore the Spirit Realm.

With him, Lan Xing is certain to suffer no loss.

This node is indeed more perilous, with countless Star-space Alien Species.

The gains in the Spirit Realm will naturally be greater as well.

Yun Shu Yue and the many Ninth Realm beings of Lan Xing each set off to explore different parts of the Spirit Realm.

After several months of exploration, Lan Xing had gained a considerable amount.

Eight months later.

The eight Spirit Stars together opened the Origin Land.

Once again, the Heavenly Dao Battlefield opened.

But this time the Heavenly Dao Battlefield had different rules: only Seventh Realm beings fought, it was a complete melee, and eliminating an opponent earned some points.

In the end, rewards were distributed according to points.

Lu Xun could not participate in the Heavenly Dao Battlefield, but Chu Youqing and her companions shone brightly there, establishing Lan Xing's prestige.

At this node, the harvest of the eight Spirit Stars was not bad.

Besides Lan Xing, each of them suffered some losses.

Lan Xing hardly suffered any losses.

Yao Xing and Astra Star were also fine; Yao Xing had Gu Yao, and Astra Star had the grand formation set up by Lu Xun.

Then, the eight Spirit Stars continued on their way.

Although the subsequent ancient road nodes were rather dangerous, the eight Spirit Stars were all second-class Spirit Stars of the Tenth Realm, and acting together posed no major problem.

"After all, there are still over a hundred nodes ahead..."

Lu Xun gazed into the depths of the starry sky.

He no longer excessively interfered with the autonomous behavior of Lan Xing's Heavenly Dao.

Next, let's proceed with the normal ascension rhythm.

With Lan Xing's current strength, going to the Eternal Star Domain would only be a death sentence.

Even Lu Xun cannot protect it.

Lu Xun also needs time to continue growing.

So, next, Lu Xun lets Lan Xing continue to develop, while he himself continues to lie flat.
