Chapter 66: Chen Yusheng's Suggestion

Finally, Chen Yusheng saw it clearly written in the data that the aliens demanded humans not kill Sangshi at will; seeing this, he was instantly struck with a sudden realization.

What the aliens were truly eyeing was not the Sangshi themselves at all, but the Crystal Cores inside the Sangshi's skulls.

At this, he also completely understood why the aliens were so insistent on destroying the Changbaishan Jidi.

The reason was simple: once humans mastered weapons and equipment capable of clearing out Sangshi on a large scale, the losses for the aliens would be immeasurable.

In the eyes of humans, Sangshi were man-eating monsters and a world-ending disaster; but in the eyes of the aliens, these Sangshi were not monsters at all, but cultivation resources that could be farmed, left to mature, and harvested at any time.

According to the observations and summaries of countless people over the five years of the apocalypse, everyone had confirmed that Sangshi would continuously grow stronger and evolve as time passed.

The stronger the Sangshi, the richer the Spiritual Qi contained within the Crystal Core in its skull.

Just like a Mutant Zombie; the Spiritual Qi within its Crystal Core was over ten times that of an ordinary Sangshi, and after a cultivator absorbed it, their cultivation speed could also directly increase tenfold.

As long as enough time was given, perhaps all ordinary Sangshi could step by step transform into Mutant Zombies.

And Mutant Zombies were even more likely to continue evolving, becoming even more terrifying and even more valuable.

After finishing all the information, a shocking thought suddenly popped into Chen Yusheng's mind.

That was: "Could the aliens also be immortal cultivators?"

If the aliens were truly immortal cultivators and could cross the vast interstellar space to arrive at Blue Star, then their cultivation levels must have reached an unimaginably powerful degree.

Facing an enemy of such a level, for humans to rashly resist now would be no different from throwing an egg against a rock, and would only result in the total annihilation of the entire army.

"Mr. Chen, what is your take on this matter?" Seeing that Chen Yusheng had finished reading all the data, Wang Kun hurriedly stepped forward to ask.

Hearing Wang Kun's inquiry, Chen Yusheng was silent for a moment, then slowly spoke: "Going head-to-head with the aliens is an unwise move."

"But the aliens have killed so many of our compatriots; are we just to swallow our anger and compromise with them?" Wang Kun's tone was filled with unwillingness and grief.

"What good does being unwilling do? In the face of an absolute gap in strength, forbearance is the most important choice at the moment."

The reason Chen Yusheng said this was not out of cowardice, but based on the calmest judgment.

He was very clear that with his current strength, he could not possibly fly into outer space to destroy the satellites.

And the aliens could easily do this, which was enough to show that the aliens' strength was far, far greater than his.

Facing such overwhelming enemies, Chen Yusheng truly could not see any chance of victory for humanity.

"I will not attend the following meeting; my stance is very clear, and that is to temporarily forbear." Chen Yusheng said to Wang Kun indifferently, and before his voice had faded, his figure moved, and he flew straight out of the window.

In his view, attending that kind of long-winded meeting and listening to a group of people argue fiercely was completely meaningless and a pure waste of time.

Returning home, Chen Yusheng's expression remained very grim, and his heart felt heavy.

"I must speed up my cultivation."

Thinking of those unfathomably powerful aliens, Chen Yusheng felt as if an invisible mountain was pressing down on his heart, making it hard to breathe.

If one day his strength could easily crush those aliens, then the so-called alien threat would not be worth mentioning in front of him.

"I wonder if the aliens are really immortal cultivators?"

Chen Yusheng repeatedly recalled the aliens who could destroy satellites in outer space, and in his heart, he became more and more certain that the other side must possess a complete cultivation system and techniques.

He just wasn't sure how much difference there was between the aliens' cultivation techniques and the Ancient Qi Refiner techniques passed down on Earth, or which was stronger or weaker.

"Should I make the Yuanqi Cultivation Method public?"

Thinking that the aliens possessed a mature cultivation system, Chen Yusheng immediately thought that Blue Star humans should also master their own cultivation techniques to improve their overall strength.

But he absolutely did not intend to easily pass on the Ancient Qi Refiner's immortal cultivation methods to others.

Because he was not sure if the aliens' techniques were inferior to his own Qi Refiner techniques.

If the aliens' cultivation method turned out to be far inferior to the Ancient Qi Refiner arts, but he leaked his core techniques and they were obtained by the aliens, that would be no different from aiding the enemy, making humanity's already slim chances of victory even slimmer.

But the Yuanqi Cultivation Method was different; it was far lower-level than the Qi Refiner's immortal cultivation method, so it could be considered for dissemination.

Once the Yuanqi Cultivation Method was popularized among humans, it could rapidly improve the overall strength of Blue Star humans in a short period.

Even if it wasn't enough to fight the aliens for the time being, at least when facing Sangshi and Bianyi Shou, humans would have it much easier, and their survival rate would be greatly increased.

However, Chen Yusheng dared not gamble.

He was not sure if the aliens would be completely enraged and launch an exterminatory massacre directly against humanity once they discovered that humans had also mastered cultivation techniques.

Therefore, after weighing and considering for a long while, he still forcibly suppressed the thought of immediately making the Yuanqi Cultivation Method public.

If he forced the aliens into a corner, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Currently, for him, the best and safest method was to spare no effort in improving his own strength.

When the day came that his power was enough to crush all the aliens, he would no longer have to fear their retaliation and threats.

It was just that right now, he didn't even know what level of cultivation the aliens had reached.

……

In the evening, Wu Xiuli returned home from work.

Her expression was grim to the extreme, and her brows were full of heaviness and anxiety.

"Mom, why is your expression so grim?" Li Ruixi saw at a glance that something was wrong with her mother and hurriedly stepped forward to ask with concern.

"I'm fine." Wu Xiuli shook her head gently, then her gaze fell on Chen Yusheng, and she said in a deep voice: "Chen Hai, come with me, I have something to ask you."

Soon, Chen Yusheng and Wu Xiuli arrived in a separate room, avoiding the others.

"You already know about the matter regarding the aliens, right?" Wu Xiuli looked straight at Chen Yusheng and asked directly.

"Mm, I know." Chen Yusheng nodded calmly.

"What is your take on this matter?" Wu Xiuli continued to ask.

"Me? My view is to forbear first, and wait until we ourselves become strong enough before making plans." Chen Yusheng did not hide anything and stated his stance directly.

Hearing Chen Yusheng's words, Wu Xiuli was silent for a moment before slowly speaking: "Chen Hai, can we pass on that set of cultivation techniques you taught me to others?"

Hearing this, Chen Yusheng pondered slightly, but still shook his head gently: "I don't recommend teaching it to others right now. If the aliens find out that we humans also have cultivation techniques, and they disregard everything and implement a genocide against us, what should we do?"

"This..."

Being told this by Chen Yusheng, a trace of bewilderment and helplessness instantly appeared on Wu Xiuli's face.

Regarding the aliens, the information humanity knows is far too little; the only thing that can be certain is that their strength is extremely formidable, strong enough to destroy satellites in outer space, strong enough to control hundreds of millions of Sangshi to besiege the Base, and strong enough to make all human leaders afraid to speak of resistance.

"Auntie, I actually have something I need to tell you as well." Chen Yusheng looked toward Wu Xiuli.

"What is it?" Wu Xiuli asked hurriedly.

"It's like this, I plan to leave here temporarily with Xiao Jiu tomorrow," Chen Yusheng said.

"Leave here? Why?" Wu Xiuli's face was full of confusion.

"Our cultivation requires a large number of Mutated Beast Crystal Cores, so we intend to go outside the city to hunt Bianyi Shou and improve our strength."

"This... won't it be dangerous?" Wu Xiuli immediately became worried.

"Rest assured, as long as we don't encounter the aliens head-on, there won't be any danger," Chen Yusheng hurriedly reassured her.

Hearing Chen Yusheng say this, and then thinking of Chen Yusheng's terrifying strength that even the entire Base could do nothing about, the heart Wu Xiuli had been holding finally settled halfway.

"Alright then, you must be extra careful out there."

Early the next morning, after Chen Yusheng solemnly said goodbye to the mother and daughter, Li Ruixi and her mother, he left Fubei Base alone.

"Brother, where are we going now?" Xiao Jiu Lin Muyao tilted her head, looked at Chen Yusheng, and asked softly.

"First we will go find Xiao Ying, then we will go hunt Bianyi Shou at the Condensing Origin realm."

The Condensing Origin realm Bianyi Shou that Chen Yusheng spoke of were exactly the level of exotic beasts like the giant snake he had slain before.

The Spiritual Qi contained within the Crystal Cores of those Bianyi Shou is extremely pure, and after absorbing it, it can directly increase his cultivation speed a hundredfold.
