Chapter 292: Sun Wukong's Discovery, Su Xiaoli Awakens, De Nuo's Ultimate Gene!

North Star, Siheyuan.

Standing in the bedroom, Chu Yang's eyes were covered with a layer of chaotic-colored sheen, and Pan Gu's voice kept echoing in his ears, analyzing Su Xiaoli's current condition.

A moment later, the chaotic sheen faded, and a smile appeared on Chu Yang's face.

Because the Divine River gene chain is too complex, the former Javis could not parse it, so Chu Yang could not confirm Su Xiaoli's evolution progress.

But for Pan Gu, this is not a difficult matter at all.

Pan Gu's calculation shows that Su Xiaoli's evolution is nearing its end, and she can awaken within at most three days.

It is worth mentioning that before merging the Divine River ultimate gene, Chu Yang cannot drive anti‑Void energy.

However, using the Super Gene of Galactic Force and Qiankun's core technology, Chu Yang fashioned a temporary driver.

It's like installing a battery onto Pan Gu; it only needs periodic recharging with the Super Gene of Galactic Force to keep Pan Gu operational.

But this is only a stopgap, not a long‑term solution; once Pan Gu upgrades again, the "temporary battery" won't keep up with Pan Gu's operation.

At least for now, the temporary battery's power is sufficient.

Leaving the bedroom and linking to Heaven Blade No. 7, Chu Yang said directly, "Yan, how are things on the Shadow World side?"

In the call channel, Yan's voice sounded shocked, "Chu Yang? How can you force a connection with Heaven Blade No. 7?"

Just after asking, Yan recovered and said, "You… your calculation system completely suppressed Heaven Blade No. 7?!"

Chu Yang laughed teasingly, "We've made some new technical breakthroughs, so don't be so startled; after all, you're at least an Angel Queen now."

Yan inhaled deeply; among all known‑universe celestial computers, Heaven Blade No. 7's power certainly ranks among the top.

At least until now, it has been in the first tier, just below those top‑tier celestial computers.

Even the Celestial Base Computing Cluster, Demon No. 1, and Qiankun's top celestial computers cannot force a communication link with Heaven Blade No. 7.

Only the Holy Knowledge Repository and the Great Clock can achieve that.

In fact, if Qiankun kept upgrading it could also manage it, but the current Qiankun focuses more on combat, and its computing core is far inferior to the Holy Knowledge Repository.

Yan's mind became a bit chaotic; she didn't understand what kind of technical breakthrough could create a computing system comparable to the Holy Knowledge Repository.

Although she already knew Chu Yang's goal, after learning of his success, Yan couldn't help feeling shocked.

After a long while, she slowly calmed herself, recalled Chu Yang's earlier question, and said softly:

"The mysterious strongman who was wreaking havoc across the Shadow World suddenly vanished; our pressure on the front lines has increased dramatically."

"However, the Celestial Base King has completed a full upgrade of the Angel Nebula Defense System and can spare forces to join me against the Shadow World."

"In an hour, I will lead the angels in a swift assault into the Shadow World!"

"But that place is the Void Warriors' home ground; to eliminate them completely will still take some time."

Chu Yang raised an eyebrow; the mysterious person Yan mentioned was naturally Sun Wukong, who has been stirring up trouble in the Shadow World, and his sudden halt likely means he has gained something regarding the Void.

But that's fine; once the angels breach the Shadow World, Karl, under pressure, will inevitably accelerate the process of linking to the Void.

When Hua Ye arrives with the Heavenly Dregs army at the Angel Nebula, the angels, exhausted, will have to temporarily set aside the Shadow World issue and cannot eradicate the Void Warriors in the short term.

Although Void Warriors lack emotions and only obey orders, Sno, as commander, is different!

That fellow is very life‑prudent; with Karl's urging on one side and the angels' threat on the other, he'll definitely push hard to link the Void.

Gathering his thoughts, Chu Yang said softly, "When you breach the Shadow World, Hua Ye won't be able to sit still; then set aside the Shadow World for now, consolidate forces, and prepare to confront the Heavenly Dregs!"

Yan replied, "Thank you!"

The matter of the Milky Way has already spread throughout the known universe; Chu Yang's prestige rose again, and the angels gained a month of breathing room.

Otherwise, even if Chu Yang solved the black‑hole engine, the angels would still face Hua Ye and the Shadow World simultaneously, beset on all sides.

Chu Yang smiled and said, "This is our trade, each taking what we need; no need to thank me."

After a few pleasantries, Chu Yang hung up and then established a link with Sun Wukong.

Javis's communication system can be intercepted and monitored by the Holy Knowledge Repository and the Great Clock, but Pan Gu is different! Even if Karl arrives in the Shadow World with the Great Clock, he can at most capture Pan Gu's signal, but cannot decipher its content.

Connection established, Chu Yang asked directly, "Brother Monkey, how are things on your side?"

"Ah!"

On the other end, Sun Wukong shouted, then a rush of wind howled, and after a moment it quieted.

Sun Wukong said irritably, "You scared old Sun a jump! What spell is that?"

Chu Yang laughed, "It's my calculation engine, Pan Gu."

"Although it hasn't reached the Great Clock level yet, it's close enough."

Sun Wukong exclaimed, "Impressive! Some say old Sun is a non‑human, non‑god monster, but compared to you, I'm just an ordinary monkey from Flower‑Fruit Mountain!"

Chu Yang pursed his lips, "Monkeys from Flower‑Fruit Mountain aren't ordinary; they live quite comfortably!"

Sun Wukong smiled, "I'm on my way back to Earth; not long ago I found a very strange device in the Shadow World and will bring it back for you to see!"

Chu Yang said softly, "You could first go to the Blazing Sun Star; they're preparing to migrate to Mars, and you, representing Earth, can give them some assistance."

Sun Wukong was silent for a moment, then said, "You want old Sun to make peace with them?"

"Leina is a warrior of the Xiong Bing Corps; I won't trouble her, but Pan Zhen is different!"

"That thief destroyed my Seven Cities of Shen Zhou back then; old Sun doesn't have that much tolerance!"

Chu Yang laughed, "Pan Zhen's era has passed; now Leina is in power, and later Blazing Sun will become Earth's 'Shield,' so consider this as saving Leina face."

"Once you return, Hua Ye will likely not dare to show up; his black‑hole engine is very important to me and will have far‑reaching effects on Earth."

On the other side, Sun Wukong scratched his ear and chin, feeling uneasy; he was displeased with Pan Zhen yet, because of the bigger picture, had to follow Chu Yang's plan.

After a long while, he muttered, "Fine, fine! Since that thief contributed to building the Void battlefield and Leina is helping protect Earth, old Sun can grant this favor to Blazing Sun!"

He cut the communication, and a smile appeared on Chu Yang's face. The Gemini Star Project is crucial for Earth; on one hand it watches over Blazing Sun, and with satellite fortifications it can form a perfect defense system.

On the other hand, because Blazing Sun's technology far surpasses Earth's, it's a matter of temporal accumulation; even with Pan Gu, Chu Yang cannot quickly elevate Earth's overall tech.

Thus Blazing Sun civilization will greatly impact Earth, spurring its technological development.

But events from over a thousand years ago remain a sore spot in the hearts of Blazing Sun people and Sun Wukong.

If this knot cannot be untied, it's fine while Chu Yang is present, but once Chu Yang leaves, friction between the two sides is inevitable, and the conflict may even intensify.

This is no trivial matter; wasn't it because of this that the ancient Deno civilization headed toward extinction? If a grudge exists between two powerful civilizations, they cannot coexist in the same star system.

Between Nuo Star and De Star, back then mere mutual suspicion and resource‑allocation issues sparked the so‑called arms race.

In plain terms, it's a conceptual war! What follows is the full‑scale outbreak of an actual war.

Even between Deno factions it's like that; Earth and Fierce Sun have long‑standing grudges, and if unresolved, the accumulated tension will only grow.

It doesn't matter what attitude Sun Wukong adopts after arriving at Fierce Sun.

As long as he goes and offers to help, his stance is already clear.

This can be seen as Chu Yang giving Fierce Sun a stepping stone; in the past Pan Zhen would never have willingly stepped down, but now that Reina is in power, she will gladly shake hands with Sun Wukong for peace.

Sun Wukong is a carefree wanderer, indifferent to Earth's affairs, stepping forward only when war is at hand.

Pan Zhen is no longer the regent; Reina has taken over his power entirely, and over time his influence in Fierce Sun will only diminish.

Therefore, as long as the overall conflict is initially eased, even if Pan Zhen and Sun Wukong later still find each other disagreeable, it won't affect the two civilizations.

With Pan Gu's emergence, Chu Yang and Sun Wukong established a link; no unstable factors remain in the plan, and everything proceeds as he anticipated.

Three days later, night fell.

The entire Giant Rift vessel entered Alert Level One because Deno No. 3 detected a massive dark‑energy fluctuation near North Star.

That power far surpasses Ge Xiao Lun, even approaching the tier of a fourth‑generation body! King‑level!

A king‑level entity in the universe is either a fourth‑generation divine body or a deeply rooted third‑generation veteran divine body.

But Earth's king‑level combat power consists only of Sun Wukong and Chu Yang; Ge Xiao Lun and Qi Lin can at most be considered half‑level.

The former has only technical support, lacking combat experience and depth.

The latter, though well‑grounded, lags technologically; if the two join forces, they could rival the top of the king‑level.

But Sun Wukong hasn't returned yet, Chu Yang's power isn't dark energy, and Earth's sudden massive dark‑energy fluctuation was immediately classified by Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Dukaao as an intruder.

At present, the only king‑level being bold enough to cause trouble on Earth could only be Hua Ye.

For this reason, the Giant Rift entered combat readiness.

The training base outside Giant Rift City also detected anomalies; Ge Xiao Lun and Zhi Xin acted decisively, rallying the entire Heroic Legion to dock with Deno No. 3 and prepare for the battlefield! It is worth noting that the Heroic Legion has now fully evolved into super‑warriors; with super‑genes and martial arts, any one of them is comparable to a mid‑tier guardian angel of the Angelic Civilization.

That combat power, once deployed, could practically stride across the universe! When the war between Earth and demons starts, Morgana will surely be greatly shocked, and will silently send her regards to Chu Yang's whole family.

Just as all of Huaxia grew tense over this dark‑energy fluctuation, Chu Yang was at the eye of the dark‑energy storm.

Looking at the Su Xiao Li before him, two words involuntarily rose in his mind…

Fairy!

If the former Su Xiao Li was a super‑warrior with fairy genes, the current Su Xiao Li is a genuine fairy!

Extreme allure combined with divine radiance, and the shock of contrast, can stir any creature, even rendering gender irrelevant.

"Brother Yang, what are you looking at?"

Su Xiao Li blinked, held out a pale hand and waved it before Chu Yang, her playful demeanor adding a touch of charm.

Chu Yang cleared his throat lightly, pointed at her and said, "Why don't you put your clothes on first?"

Su Xiao Li froze for a moment, then lowered her head, her cute face flushing red, and a set of dream‑shimmering crimson armor instantly covered her body.

"What is this?" Chu Yang, drawn to the armor, felt his inner restlessness subside.

Su Xiao Li smiled sweetly and said, "This is one of the final products of the gene chain; its defense is strong and should ignore the threat of God‑slaying weapons."

Chu Yang's eyes lit up; the ultimate gene indeed did not disappoint! God‑slaying weapons, matched against Void‑level weapons, are the strongest known single‑combat arms in the universe, capable of threatening and severely damaging fourth‑generation divine bodies.

But the armor derived from the ultimate gene can ignore such a threat, which implies that even though Su Xiao Li hasn't upgraded to a fourth‑generation divine body, her defense already rivals the holy Kaisha? Although her life form and genes have fully transcended, her personality and mindset remain unchanged; she steps forward, wraps her arms around Chu Yang's neck, and giggles, "Brother Yang, I've been asleep for so long—did you miss me?"

Chu Yang also smiled, and as Su Xiao Li blinked her bright eyes, waiting for his affectionate kiss, he saw her pull out a syringe.

"Come! Let me draw a tube of blood first!"

Su Xiao Li's cute face darkened, wanting to cry but unable to.

But that was only the beginning; Chu Yang then busied himself on her for nearly half an hour.

First drawing blood, then measuring bodily data, analyzing life form, decoding atomic structure, and finally deciphering and organizing the gene code.

After this whole procedure, Su Xiao Li became numb, and her smile turned somewhat stiff.

"Not bad, better than the results I expected!"

Chu Yang smiled satisfactorily, patting Su Xiao Li's head.

Until then, he suddenly recalled the dark energy from half an hour earlier, slapped his forehead hard, and, using Pan Gu, sent a docking request to Deno No. 3 and Qian Kun.

Both sides passed instantly, and Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Dukaao said anxiously, "I couldn't reach you by phone; I thought you'd left Earth!"

"A massive dark‑energy fluctuation appeared near North Star, yet caused no damage; the opponent's intent is unclear."

"Should we wait for you to confirm the dark‑energy source, or send the Heroic Legion to strike directly?"

Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Dukaao's tone carried a murderous resolve, brimming with confidence.

Now Earth has the confidence to confront any enemy! (End of chapter)
