Chapter 1359: Changes in the Blue Star War Zone

Xiao Feng chatted with them for a while, learning some details of the changes.

Without him, the Blue Star War Zone 8 not only did not decline, but became even more valiant.

Before, with him shining like the sun, all the stars paled in comparison.

Now that the sun has left, night falls, and the myriad stars strive to emit their own light, visible to the world.

The Blue Star Alliance was founded three months ago, and many have earned fame and praise by helping the weak.

Others have gained great renown through territorial wars, their achievements shining brightly.

Still others have won fame by relying on personal strength, securing many consecutive victories in the arena.

This world has never lacked experts; the number of talented people is countless.

Only before, their brilliance was blocked by Xiao Feng, unable to show.

The era of a single supreme ruler has passed; the age of many heroes rising together has arrived. Each expert player, in just three months, has become a household-name star.

Moreover, under the promotion of the Blue Star Alliance, the number of ascending players is steadily increasing.

Previously, many were stuck at their level and realm; some who broke through the demigod threshold were directly "commended" to the Divine Realm by rewards such as the Primeval World and Civilization Advancement.

But this is actually only a minority; far more people remain stuck without breaking through their realm.

Since the start of this year, players who ascended within three months total at least around 500 million, constituting the second large-scale ascension grand scene since last year's first ascension wave.

With this influx of 500 million fresh blood, the entire Blue Star War Zone is bustling; every day people bring low-level accounts to farm contributions and raise their alliance membership rank.

The mutual aid system spearheaded by Shen Di and others has initially taken shape; under Jiang Ning's policy support, every main city of the Heavenly Dao Divine Kingdom has a welfare institution dedicated to serving players of the Blue Star War Zone 8.

Low-level players can receive divine artifact equipment for free, apply for experts to take them through dungeons, and live very comfortably.

Those who contribute equipment can also accumulate contributions to exchange for higher-grade gear.

With the Heavenly Dao Divine Kingdom's treasury as backing, plus the large amount of rare equipment Xiao Feng left before departing, this cycle remains stable and will not go bankrupt despite the growing numbers.

Moreover, many divine artifacts are not actually dropped from monsters; they are forged by the players themselves.

All major guilds need to cultivate elite blacksmiths; to upgrade crafting skills, they must pour vast amounts of resources into it.

These resources can be developed and mined through the Heavenly Dao Divine Kingdom's connections, obtained continuously, and the cost is not too high.

Then they are supplied to secondary-profession players to forge, turning them into divine artifacts to aid the weak.

Those who have been helped can give back by mining some materials for the mutual aid system, or later return some equipment.

Continuing this cycle, the alliance can fully sustain development until no one needs help anymore.

The effect of this great alliance is in no way inferior to Xiao Feng's influence.

Xiao Feng drives top-tier power, giving the Blue Star War Zone 8 a batch of high-potential, immensely strong leading experts.

While the great alliance starts from the grassroots, making the entire zone grow strong.

The former is the sword's tip, the latter the sword's spine; combined, they form an invincible divine weapon!

After learning the situation in the zone, Xiao Feng felt relieved.

Everything in the zone is thriving; he no longer needs to worry.

He can continue searching outside for immortal crystals, gathering resources, and strengthening his own power.

This year, even these two game years, all major war zones have been relatively peaceful.

Because the era of the Myriad Heavens Battlefield has not yet arrived, players are still rapidly raising their levels, temporarily lacking the strength to contend for supremacy.

Those able to venture into the Myriad Heavens Battlefield are all top-tier experts, first scouting paths for their own war zones, exploring the future direction of development.

But this is merely an exploratory stage.

Scouting is just scouting; the main force is still far from arrival.

In the future Myriad Heavens Battlefield, players will need to build cities themselves and expand territory.

This requires enormous manpower, material resources, and funds; it cannot be accomplished overnight.

By then, not only will combatants be needed to slay the Myriad Heavens Battlefield's wild monsters, but also builders, alchemists, smiths, city defense teams, and various other player types to support the civilization's development.

The current "Myriad Heavens" is a fantasy adventure game.

The future "Myriad Heavens" will be a hegemony cultivation game!

Xiao Feng even suspects that by then, a venerable-level boss may not be considered formidable; the truly terrifying enemies will be the countless alien players, numbered in the trillions, capable of infinite resurrection.

……

Two hours later, Xiao Feng returned to the game world.

The double-experience period still has over five days, nearly six; if he meditates, the effect would be better.

However, the speed of improvement from meditation is actually lower than the Chaos Tree's own absorption efficiency; Xiao Feng promised Da Bai that after clearing the dungeon he would take it to Jinpeng Dao to visit his past-life older brother, so he temporarily gave up cultivation and prepared to make the trip first.

"Da Bai, let's set off!"

Xiao Feng summoned Da Bai, used a return-to-city talisman to go to the nearby city, then headed toward the southwest of the Kyushu Continent.

Upon reaching the outermost teleportation array, Da Bai immediately realized this was the direction to Jinpeng Dao.

He instantly exclaimed joyfully, "We're going home! Finally coming back, big brother, you're great!"

"Heh, when you meet your older brother from your past life later, what will you call him?" Xiao Feng thought of a question and asked with a smile.

Da Bai answered without hesitation, "Just call him Jinpeng's older brother, or call you my good older brother—either works!"

"Good older brother? Why don't you call me good older brother? Pah!" Xiao Feng expressed disdain.

"Alright, then I'll call you good older brother~"

Da Bai immediately put it into practice, shouting in a slightly feminine voice.

Xiao Feng only felt goosebumps rising all over, unable to suppress a shudder.

"Forget it, I'll allow you to call my name these few days." Xiao Feng chose to act like a normal person.

"Understood!"

Da Bai flapped its wings, began accelerating, and eagerly rushed toward its hometown.

This journey is actually quite far; it takes over ten hours to fly.

Da Bai was homesick and flew fast, yet it couldn't change the fact that the road was long.

Xiao Feng sat on Da Bai's broad back, devoting half his mind to cultivation and the other half to studying the knowledge stored in his mind, researching the Ninefold Heavenly Dao.

Lately he has been practicing swordsmanship; he has already learned many Sword Cultivator skills, so posing as a Sword Immortal is not easy to see through.

Although he hasn't yet grasped two moves of the Heaven-Opening Four Swords, the junior challengers who truly take on Yunchu Shan probably won't need all the moves; spending a little time each day to study them is enough, no need to obsessively grind over them like before.

Compared to Sword Cultivator skills, the Ninefold Heavenly Dao is his main path; in the future he will rely on this inheritance to break into the Venerable Realm!

Now Xiao Feng is over level 400 and can comprehend the Third Level Heavenly Dao, the Yin Yang Dao.

He has now mastered the three major abilities of the First Level Heavenly Dao; although he is still far from truly penetrating the Dao of All Beings, it's basically enough, and there's no need to cling to too profound a realm.

Because the profundities of each level of the Dao are very deep, his realm is not enough yet; for now he can only learn skills, and after becoming an immortal he will explore those profound things.

The Second Level Five Elements Dao requires even deeper understanding than the Dao of All Beings; he is quite familiar with Five Elements power, and if he spends more time studying, grasping the law is not difficult.

The Third Level Yin Yang Dao has not yet begun to be comprehended; now is the time when he is full of curiosity.

Xiao Feng opened the memory inheritance, and a volume of profound scriptures surged forth.
