Chapter 1400: and translation of title

~7 min read 1,300 words

A group made two teleportations, spending tens of thousands of Long River notes.

Such star-system-level transmission is really too expensive, far more costly than the Nine Provinces Immortal Realm.

The overall travel cost level of the entire Changhe Star System is much higher than other worlds; playing in this world, the pressure is probably also considerable.

After arriving at Long Mie Star, Hum Hum summoned a warplane mount, Xiao Feng and the others boarded it together, and quickly flew toward the dungeon entrance.

On the way, everyone introduced him to the information about the dungeon 'Ancient Nation Emperor Star'.

The so-called Ancient Nation Emperor Star actually refers to Long Mie Star, but not the present one, rather the past.

They will go through the time machine back to 300,000 years ago, to the era when this planet was at its most glorious.

300,000 years ago, Long Mie Star was the hegemonic power of the Changhe Star System, the capital planet of the Tianhe Empire, possessing extremely high technology and a large number of extraordinary martial artists. However, later with the rise of the stronger Changtian Empire, it was quickly defeated in war and became history.

The Changtian Empire, although victorious, also suffered heavy losses.

In order to commemorate that interstellar war, they specially built this time machine, allowing people to return to the past, witness the cruelty of war, and understand that the present peace is hard-won.

In the 'Ancient Nation Emperor Star' dungeon, all the bosses are people of the Tianhe Empire; according to the system settings, the loot obtained after victory inside can all be taken back.

Xiao Feng, after hearing the introduction, couldn't help but complain: 'Clearly it was the Changtian Empire that actively invaded, yet they still talk about peace being hard-won—truly shameless.'

Ying Ying echoed: 'Exactly, the invaders treat aggression as justice, beautifying it as saving suffering people; their shamelessness is comparable to a certain country on our planet!'

'Do you have many countries on your planet?' Xiao Feng asked.

'Many, especially many! Some are big, some are small; just the mainstream languages alone are numerous, and if you travel a bit farther you'll encounter situations where communication is impossible.'

'What a coincidence, our planet is like that too!'

'Really? Does your planet have a country with a long history, an unbroken lineage, especially romantic, possessing poetry, songs, fu, and the hundred schools of thought?'

'Yes! Our Dragon Nation is exactly that!' Xiao Feng exclaimed in surprise, not expecting that Blue Star and Di Qiu were so similar.

'Eh? Is your totem a dragon? Ours is too!' Ying Ying and the others were also surprised.

'It's that kind of long dragon, not a big lizard with two wings.' Xiao Feng made a gesture.

He seemed to feel the gesture wasn't clear enough, and also used his willpower to condense source-attribute divine power, simulating the shape of a divine dragon.

'Yes! That's the kind of divine dragon, there's the Eastern Azure Dragon, the Candle-holding Dragon, the Yellow Dragon, the Responding Dragon… many, many kinds!'

Hum Hum and the others were all excited.

It was just casual chatting, but I didn't expect the civilizations of the two planets to be so similar!

'Does your planet have mythological stories?' Xiao Feng asked.

Wa Wa immediately replied: 'Yes, we have the myth of Pangu creating heaven, plus Nuwa creating humans, Nuwa mending heaven, Fuxi's Eight Trigrams, Shennong tasting a hundred herbs, the Yanhuang battle against Chiyou… you could go on forever!'

'Ah? We have those too! Plus Suiren taking fire, Da Yi shooting the suns, Yu Huang dividing the Nine Provinces, Xingtian dancing with shield and axe… indeed you could talk all day and night!'

'How could this be? Ying Ying, could we be long-lost brother planets?' The teammates were all shocked.

Although after entering the Changhe Star System they came into contact with many human civilizations, none of them were as similar to theirs.

I never expected to meet a Xiao Feng from a different region and discover such a strange thing.

For a moment, everyone felt very excited, as if long-lost blood brothers had finally met.

Xiao Feng was also a bit excited, but calmer than them.

He explained: 'I once heard a very capable person say that civilizations in the universe fall into three types: one is indigenous, one is nurtured during development by a similar advanced civilization, and one is specially cultivated by an advanced civilization. Perhaps our two planets were both once nurtured by the same advanced civilization, and the myths we know are transmitted from them.'

'Nurture?'

'Advanced civilization?'

'Aren't we self-developed?'

Everyone somewhat doubted this claim.

Xiao Feng said: 'I also have doubts about this claim, but our two planets are so far apart yet so similar—this is a big problem.'

'Um, seems so…'

Everyone fell into contemplation.

Two planets separated by countless light-years are actually extremely similar, truly unimaginable.

This is not a coincidence; at most coincidence would let two planets have the same race and culture, let alone similar language, not to mention history and myths.

Perhaps this is the truly powerful humanity in the universe guiding their planets' development and reproduction, moving toward strength.

Once they accumulate enough level, perhaps they can make contact with that hidden advanced civilization!

'Have you flown out of space?' Xiao Feng asked again.

Hum Hum replied: 'We flew out long ago, but we haven't yet contacted other civilizations. According to historians, our planet once had a very glorious civilization, but later it collapsed. In outer space around Di Qiu, there are many technological ruins and city wrecks, perhaps left from that era.'

'Ah, collapsed? Then your history must be very long, while our planet's humanity only entered the civilizational stage a few thousand years ago, and only in the past few decades have we flown into space, even spacewalks are somewhat difficult.' Xiao Feng said.

After a while of casual chat, both sides felt myriad emotions about the rise and fall of civilizations.

Compared to that, Blue Star's conditions are still relatively backward, while Di Qiu people have already built cities in the air and on the sea, and have also made great achievements in genetic evolution; now there are four controllers holding power, in terms of strength they are stronger than the Blue Sky World, and very safe.

I heard that on their planet there seems to be a place called the 'Immortal Realm Gate' where one can go to the cultivation world, but Hum Hum and the others are not evolvers, so they cannot access that level of things.

Xiao Feng was envious beyond measure, saying that Blue Star currently has no extraordinary lifeforms, and its genetic evolution experience is almost zero.

Hum Hum and the others, upon hearing that Blue Star is so ordinary yet such a powerful warzone in the game, couldn't help but become curious about Xiao Feng's gaming experience and began asking various questions.

Without realizing it, everyone arrived at the dungeon entrance.

Under the guidance of the NPC, they entered the time machine and began to travel through time.

Originally, the 'Ancient Nation Emperor Star' dungeon was a 50-player team dungeon, with extremely high difficulty and rich rewards.

But with Xiao Feng present, there's no need to call that many people; fewer people means a larger share of resources.

The team consisted of six people in total, and directly via the time machine's transmission, they returned to 300,000 years ago.

Actually, it's not really time travel; it's merely a form of the dungeon, just like the 'Weeping Blood Wasteland' in Yuan Su Shen Yu.

After entering the dungeon, Xiao Feng began to enter combat mode.

Then he embarrassingly discovered that his cultivation skills and magic skills couldn't be used at all!

This is a sci‑fi world...
