Chapter 1307: We in the Cultivation Realm Have Just Been Able to Enter the Universe

Eleven projections were successively cast into the highest council hall, gathering around the round table, waiting for the convener to appear.

One member impatiently tapped the table: "Old Gao summoned us for a temporary meeting—why is he late? Isn't he always the first to arrive?"

He is Wang Jinglong, the head of the Wang financial conglomerate; the Murong Group is merely one of his many subsidiaries.

"Did he tell you the purpose of this meeting? Is it that he calculated the cause of the solar explosion in the Sagittarius Star System?"

The people of the Sagittarius Star System have temporarily relocated to the Eternal Star System, and the financial conglomerates under him have been crying to him about how severe the losses from this relocation are, asking when the alliance will return them.

"Chairman, do you know?"

The chairman is a vigorous middle-aged man who commands all the alliance's armies and enjoys extremely high prestige within the alliance.

"He said it's related to assisting backward civilizations, but he didn't go into detail with me."

"Assisting backward civilizations? Isn't the matter of the Haihai Star already settled?" Wang Jinglong was left bewildered by the chairman.

"Sorry, everyone—adjusting the projection equipment took longer than estimated."

The projection device lit up, and Chancellor Gao arrived late.

But this time, his appearance was not alone; there was also an extraterrestrial guest.

Seeing an outsider appear, Wang Jinglong frowned: "Old Gao, what's going on? This is the highest council—"

"Why did you bring an outsider?"

"This is the person you wanted to see."

Only then did everyone clearly see the appearance of the thirteenth person, their pupils contracting sharply.

It was that extraterrestrial named Lu Yang!

The chairman was also shocked—since the establishment of the highest council, no outsider had ever participated in this meeting.

Not even alternate members had this qualification!

"Hello everyone, I'm Lu Yang. I heard you wanted to see me, so I came." Lu Yang seemed oblivious to everyone's reactions, smiling as he greeted the eleven powerholders, very polite.

"You're that extraterrestrial?" Upon learning Lu Yang's identity, everyone immediately became interested.

In the universe, the alliance can be called hegemonic; these eleven supreme rulers govern the alliance, know countless secrets, perceive the truth, and hardly anything in the world can still attract their attention.

Lu Yang is that exception.

It is reasonable that Lu Yang was brought by Chancellor Gao—surely Chancellor Gao found Lu Yang through the ether computer.

"If possible, I'd prefer you call me a cultivator rather than an extraterrestrial."

"A cultivator?" Everyone pondered the term, even searched it with their smart brains, but had never heard of it.

"Explaining cultivator is a bit complicated; you can simply understand it as us using a special kind of power to make ourselves stronger."

"We call this special power spiritual energy, and spirit stones store large amounts of spiritual energy."

Saying this, Lu Yang flipped his hand to produce a spirit stone, scanned it, analyzed its structure, and projected it onto the highest council.

"Is this a spirit stone?"

Everyone had never seen such a structure; they thought they had roamed the universe, possessed boundless territories, and seen all kinds of cosmic matter, yet they hadn't expected undiscovered natural substances to exist.

"In my world, spirit stones are abundant; we all cultivate using spirit stones."

"As for the name of my civilization behind me, well." Speaking of the civilization's name, Lu Yang hesitated: "For now, call it the Cultivation Realm; if an official name comes later, we can change it."

"For now?" The chairman noticed the implication behind Lu Yang's wording.

"Mr. Lu's civilization behind him—could it have never contacted other civilizations?"

Only a civilization that has never contacted other civilizations would appear without even naming its own civilization.

Lu Yang was entrusted by Chairman Chengcheng: "Frankly, our Cultivation Realm has only just been able to enter the universe recently; before this, we didn't even know what the universe was like."

Upon hearing this, the highest council members all stared in shock—having just entered the universe, this Cultivation Realm is truly too backward.

"Mr. Lu, is that black-covered boat of yours really impressive? It seems capable of traversing wormholes and conducting spatial jumps." Wang Jinglong eyed Lu Yang suspiciously—how could a civilization with such means have just entered the universe?

"Oh, you mean that boat? That too was just recently developed; before this, our Cultivation Realm didn't have such a thing."

Lu Yang spoke openly and honestly, without reservation; this attitude instead made Wang Jinglong feel he was being overly suspicious, which was detrimental to the alliance's image.

Wang Jinglong couldn't suppress his curiosity, and still had one final question: "I see Mr. Lu, your methods are extraordinary—"

"You can handle the vicious beasts of Haihai Star, stop bullets—how are these done?"

"Explaining this would take three days and three nights."

This is the truth; to explain these methods, one would need to explain the entire cultivation system from beginning to end to the council members, who have had no prior contact with cultivation—starting from zero, making it even harder to explain.

"You can understand these as abilities cultivators gain after comprehending heaven and earth."

"Comprehending heaven and earth?" Wang Jinglong puzzled—how long had it been since he heard such a phrase? It sounds like only those ignorant, backward civilizations that worship heaven and earth, eat by the weather, and are in the agricultural era would say such things.

"I know what you're thinking, Mr. Wang. Our Cultivation Realm is indeed backward, so I'd like to ask the alliance to send some people, just like with Haihai Star, to assist our Cultivation Realm, provide technical support—no need for too much trouble, just send a few people over."

The members looked at each other, surprised that Lu Yang would make such a request.

However, Lu Yang's request is reasonable and not demanding—just sending a few people over.

The alliance lacks nothing most of all—people.

"May I ask Mr. Lu, where exactly is the Cultivation Realm located? Could you tell us?"

Lu Yang nodded: "Simple—trouble Chancellor Gao to pull up a star map."

"Ether, pull up the star map."

A star map, the most comprehensive known to the alliance, appeared before everyone, with the alliance at its center.

This star map is somewhat larger than the one Lu Yang saw in the library, but still does not include the location of the Cultivation Realm, so he could only mark it outside the map: "Approximately here."

"Mr. Lu, this matter still needs our discussion and decision." The chairman said, having made up his mind,

"But no matter what, we cannot make a decision just based on Lu Yang's face."

"Alright." Lu Yang sensibly withdrew from the highest council.

After Lu Yang left, the chairman closed his eyes, pondered for a moment, and asked: "What do you all think?"

"I don't see any problem; he doesn't seem to be lying," said one member.

"I have no objection," said Wang Jinglong.

"Old Gao, what do you think?"

"Let's ask Aether," said Dean Gao.

"That's right; we should indeed consult Aether on this matter."

"Aether, regarding Mr. Lu Yang's proposal to send personnel to assist the Cultivation Realm, what do you think?"

Aether quickly gave an answer:

"Send me."
