Chapter 1603

He Xianzi's figure darted through the air, moving very fast, like a beam of light.

Meanwhile, Xiao Feng and the others on the back of the celestial crane rode smoothly, with no feeling of bumpiness.

After flying for over an hour, passing through tens of thousands of kilometers, they saw no second Chengshi or Mi Jing.

Bored, Xiao Feng enjoyed the scenery with his four close female companions while opening the cross-server friend list to contact acquaintances far away on another Planet.

"Hey, Old Shen, have you been discharged from the hospital lately?"

"It's been half a year; I've already been out. How are you? Have you seen the Primordial Ancestor?"

The first person he contacted was Shen Chuo.

Although they had occasionally contacted before, everyone was busy and never had idle chat.

This moment, Shen Chuo happened to be free, so they chatted about past topics.

"Yeah, I saw him; the Primordial Ancestor thinks highly of me and gave me some guidance. My physical quality has improved a lot." Xiao Feng replied.

At that moment he thought, Shen Chuo had also been beaten by Chen Jie, so the benefits he gained probably weren't much less than his own; he should have also become transcendent.

However, the other party didn't know that Chen Jie was actually a Dao Ancestor, so he didn't think much of it.

"I really envy you, seeing the greatest human existence at such a young age. By the way, why has your level been stuck lately?"

"I've run into some things and have been in seclusion. You're impressive, already at level 545."

"Even if I played another half month, I'd still need to rely on your auto‑farming to surpass you—I feel ashamed. You just killed so many civilization lords; did you run into a machine‑race swarm?"

They had only exchanged a few words when they got to the point.

Xiao Feng replied: "Yes, this is a machine‑race major zone; they are very united. Fortunately I was a bit superior, otherwise I would have been beaten to death by a mob."

"The machine race has always been like that. I heard the archery‑tree champion elder brother say that our human civilization and their machine civilization have been waging a cosmic war all along, which hasn't ended, so they are hostile toward us."

"Huh? There's such a thing? Your old brother knows quite a lot."

As for the cosmic war, Xiao Feng had only heard Qian Sha mention it once in passing, and didn't know much about it, never expecting Shen Chuo to bring it up suddenly.

Shen Chuo said: "That's for sure. That old brother is not only a transcendent powerhouse but also seems to hold a high position. From his tone I gather he might even know the Blue Star garrison regiment commander‑in‑chief, General Shigu, who invited me to visit the surface next month—I'm really looking forward to it."

Xiao Feng was secretly astonished.

Indeed, the people of Blue Star One are not simple; that place hides tigers and dragons, with the Creator God and the Lord of Time residing there, and those two great powers surely have many close aides and disciples, all immensely strong.

As a commoner, Shen Chuo normally finds it hard to come into contact with such figures.

But in the game world it's different—his strength is strong enough that encountering them is entirely possible!

He might even have met the Creator God's spouse and children!

Compared to that, Blue Star Eight is…

"Never mind that for now—send me the coordinates of the machine‑race players you found, and I'll check the distance to see if I can also give it a try." Shen Chuo steered the conversation back to the main point.

"Sure." Xiao Feng gave him the coordinates.

After a moment, Shen Chuo said: "It's too far—our war zone's main base is 13 billion kilometers from your location, and without a super Teleportation Array we can't get there."

"Uh..."

That distance left Xiao Feng dumbfounded.

He had originally wanted to form an alliance with Shen Chuo's zone, but that idea now seems unrealistic.

"Have you looked up the coordinates of the war zone where Miss Han is?" Shen Chuo asked.

"I haven't asked yet; I was just about to."

"Better yet, let's create a group and pull in all the human players we know."

Shen Chuo proposed an idea.

"I think that works!"

Xiao Feng promptly set up a chat group right there, pulling in Shen Di of the Blue Star Eight war zone, Han Zichen of Nine Provinces, Yu Cixue of the Potential Dragon Continent, Xue Ningzhen of the Azure Green Realm, Li Jinglan of the Heavenly Domain Wasteland, Feng Feng Shi of the Spacetime Rift, and Shen Chuo.

"Huh, what kind of group is this?"

"Brother Xiao Feng, this is…"

"Why did you pull Li Jinglan into this, Brother Dao?"

"Brother Xiao, why are all your friends female?"

"I'm male, thank you."

"I'm male too!"

The group members all spoke up.

Only Feng Feng Shi refused to say a word.

Xiao Feng cleared his throat: "Never mind the male/female thing. Everyone is a top expert from their respective war zones; now the era of the Myriad Heavens Battlefield has arrived, with powerful enemies from all sides surrounding us, and the human race's situation is not optimistic. I and Shen Chuo want to form an alliance, linking up all the human war zones we can unite, to jointly resist the foreign foes."

"I have no objection, but Xue Ningzhen junior sister probably won't agree." Li Jinglan was the first to reply.

Sure enough, before his words even finished, Xue Ningzhen objected: "Brother Dao, please be sure to kick out the Heavenly Domain Wasteland!"

"What… do you guys have some deep grudge?" Shen Chuo expressed his confusion.

Back in the Primordial Ancient World, he had encountered people from the Azure Green Realm and the Heavenly Domain Wasteland; although Li Jinglan hadn't participated in battle then, he had already heard that these two zones are like fire and water.

Yu Cixue, also from the Nine Provinces area, heard this and laughed: "They've been fighting for years; Xue Ningzhen Fairy Maiden is always aloof, only losing her composure in front of Li Jinglan."

"That's wrong, fellow Daoist—I just want to kill him; please don't mislead everyone!" Xue Ningzhen hastily explained, fearing everyone would misunderstand her relationship with Li Jinglan.

Although they are both disciples of Yunchu Shan, all she wants is to beat Li Jinglan to death—an Xian Xia killing! This is a genuine grudge, not some love‑hate duo.

"Forget it, I'll just quit."

Li Jinglan felt somewhat resigned and quit the chat.

This guy is also in the top ten of the Level Ranking, and his performance in the Myriad Heavens Tower is equally outstanding, making him a famous expert.

He quit, and Shen Chuo still felt a bit regretful.

Xue Ningzhen apologetically said: "Really sorry, the hatred is too deep—I couldn't hold back… If you don't like it, I can also quit."

After speaking, he also left the group chat.

Xiao Feng: ……

Shen Chuo: ……

Sure enough, what you fear comes to pass.

Humanity's internal strife problem is indeed unavoidable; whether it's the Blue Star No. 8 War Zone and Azure Sky World, or elsewhere, similar problems exist.

"Do we pull them back?" Xiao Feng asked.

"Which one are you talking about?" Shen Chuo countered.

These two clearly don't see eye to eye; it's impossible to bring both back, so we can only pick one.

"Li Jinglan's personal strength is a bit stronger, but the war zone's strength in the Azure Realm is greater." Yu Cixue reminded.

"I'll bring Xue Ningzhen over first, mainly because she flies off the handle at the sight of Li Jinglan; as long as we persuade her, Li Jinglan's side should be fine." Xiao Feng said.

Although they haven't had much contact, he feels Li Jinglan is someone who is relatively steady and hasn't really quarreled with Xue Ningzhen; it's because the latter has been unable to let go after losing many benefits, leading to repeated clashes.

This problem is actually quite easy to solve.

When there's time, go together with them to Yunchu Shan, unleash Xiao Feng's "face" ultimate move, ask Dao Venerable Wuxin to help persuade them, and they should improve.

Of course, whether Xiao Feng has this face, he himself doesn't know.
