Chapter 1315

"Where is the faceless stone man? Hurry up and get him back here!" The Heavenly Emperor's eyes darkened—this was a matter of life and death.

How could I not know there are spirit stones in the Cultivation Realm? Am I not wanting to go mine spirit stones in the Cultivation Realm!

The attendant Cui'er was somewhat dazed; in her impression, the Heavenly Emperor had always held absolute power, everything firmly under his control—how could he be so flustered?

"Your Majesty, General Shi's legion is a million light-years away from here; we cannot contact him directly."

After the attendant said that, the Heavenly Emperor recalled that his communication with Shi Wumian had a delay—by the time the message reached him, the Biluo Tian Legion had already set out on the campaign against the Cultivation Realm... Pah, that can't even be called a campaign—it's just sending them to die!

No one knows the terror of the Cultivation Realm better than the Heavenly Emperor.

Once the ancient four immortals who ruled the cosmos, the creator of the Dao Fruit Path that surpassed the ancient four immortals, the immortal assassin who weakened the ancient four immortals by killing an immortal, the mysterious immortal hiding in the shadows whom the Central Heaven Emperor and the Fate Deity never found, whether the Great Xia has one or two immortals, the qilin immortal who once intercepted me, the immortal shrouded in gray mist, and the rising star of the Questioning Dao Sect, Yun Zhi—whose fame is modest but whose cultivation is unmatched in the world...

Any faction is one he would rather not provoke!

After enduring countless hardships, scheming through myriad calculations, finally giving up everything to arrive outside the box world—how could he not have enjoyed even a brief moment of leisure before the box world was opened?!

Does this not mean the Undying Immortal has been resurrected?

Is that person of immense fortune I replaced so outrageous?

No, I cannot just sit and wait for death.

Thinking this, the Heavenly Emperor took a step spanning ten thousand li, crossed the star sea, and personally went to intercept that fool, Shi Wumian!

After Dai Bufan woke up, he found himself still in the Great Ming Hall, except the topic of discussion had shifted from how to integrate technology to how to resist foreign invasion.

"I thought there was no spiritual energy beyond the realm, so we wouldn't meet opponents—turns out we underestimated those beyond the realm." The Old Dragon King sighed; it had only been this long since the seal was broken, and the Cultivation Realm already faced crisis.

The ether computer repeatedly played the battle between the Star Alliance and the Biluo Tian Legion, though it was hard to discern the legion's strength from it—only that their warships were flexible and possessed astonishing defense.

Actually, this isn't surprising—many cultivators in the Cultivation Realm can achieve this level.

The Biluo Tian Legion didn't even display an attack method before sweeping aside the Star Alliance; the unknown is what's truly terrifying.

"Calling themselves the overlord of the universe, even self-proclaiming as Heavenly Emperor—this Candlelight Civilization must be incredibly powerful."

"Unfortunately, several immortals are wandering beyond the heavens, their whereabouts unknown; now the Cultivation Realm has only over a dozen half-immortals, and over a hundred Tribulation Transcendence cultivators!" The Snow King regrettably pounded his leg; though he himself is a half-immortal, facing the Cultivation Realm crisis, he dare not boast, feeling his strength limited.

Lu Yang opened his mouth—the current Candlelight Civilization differs from what he encountered in his past life; it is now stronger, and his intuition tells him that even the current Candlelight Civilization is far inferior to the Cultivation Realm; your worries are unnecessary.

But this is merely intuition, with no evidence to confirm it, so he can only bury this thought in his heart.

Otherwise, when the Cultivation Realm looks down on the Candlelight Civilization and suffers defeat, this guilt would be great.

"Let us enter a state of war readiness." Xia Di proposed, and everyone agreed.

Major powers have entered war readiness before, guarding against others—but to say the Cultivation Realm unified and entered war readiness? That has never happened.

This means various cultivation resources are opened, cultivators seize the time to train, striving to enhance the Cultivation Realm's overall strength in the shortest time; besides those elderly cultivators too old to benefit, other cultivators can at least advance one minor realm.

And those heaven-defying geniuses will rise unexpectedly during this period.

"What about the White Horse Dynasty?" Lu Yang thought of another issue—the Candlelight Civilization comes with ill intent, and along the way they may encounter the White Horse Dynasty and other planets, possibly invading them.

Didn't Senior Brother Dai say that after he left, during this time, cultivators discovered other life-bearing planets near the Cultivation Realm?

Of course, this "near" is measured in light-years.

"What do you think, Elder Brother Lu?" Zhu Tian asked.

"My suggestion is to relocate these planets to our Cultivation Realm—after all, we have plenty of space."

The stars in the Cultivation Realm's universe are mere illusions left by ancient stars; it's perfect to move these planets here.

"Elder Brother Lu's idea is wonderful!" Zhu Tian agreed without hesitation, praising Lu Yang for having the heart to hang a pot and save the world—he hadn't even considered the White Horse Dynasty issue.

Although Zhu Tian has an element of flattery, after reflection others also found this feasible—how could we abandon these places?

"We should still respect these planets' opinions, inform them of the situation, and see how they decide." The Old Dragon King said.

In truth, the Old Dragon King overthought it—regardless of the imminent enemy, even without the Candlelight Civilization threat, these planets would eagerly join the Cultivation Realm.

Just a single strand of spiritual energy that prolongs life would make them flock here.

"The technology brought by Chancellor Gao is also helpful in warfare." Lu Yang said.

"Especially quantum communication technology—no matter the distance, communication is possible, and at extremely low cost."

The Cultivation Realm also has long-distance communication treasures, such as the Nineyou Order given to Lu Yang by the Nineyou Sect, or the letters from the senior sister to the second and third senior sisters—but these are too costly to produce, impossible to popularize.

Quantum communication technology is far cheaper; the populace of the Star Alliance can afford it.

Xia Di nodded: "Yes, combining Chancellor Gao's technology with cultivation is also very important."

"Then let me familiarize Chancellor Gao with cultivation matters." Lu Yang volunteered, since he brought him here, he must take responsibility to the end.

"Good." Everyone wanted to pull Chancellor Gao into their faction, but knew it was impossible—handing his affairs to Lu Yang was something everyone welcomed.

Not a single word, not a single thread, not a single shot, not a single detail missed!

"Does Chancellor Gao have anyone in particular he wishes to meet?"

"Lu Mr. said your black-awning boat was researched by your ancestral master and another elder—can I meet these two?"

Lu Yang turned: "Senior Brother Dai, where is the Ancestral Master Guiyuan now—is he in the sect?"

Dai Bufan thought: "He should be at the shipyard outside the imperial city, building ships with the Ancestral Master Dao."

"That's wonderful."

Lu Yang bade farewell to the crowd and brought Chancellor Gao to the shipyard outside the imperial city.

Near the shipyard, the temperature was terrifyingly high—great furnaces belched Xiong Xiongliehuo, burning fiercely.

One black-awning boat after another was built, resembling Lu Yang's but slightly different—likely the second generation.

"Little Lu is back?" Guiyuan Tianzun was pinching a piece of immortal gold, saw Lu Yang approach, and happily waved.

"Ancestral Master Guiyuan, Ancestral Master Dao." Lu Yang bowed to both, then explained the situation.

"Oh, you just wanted to watch the shipbuilding process? Sure." Guiyuan Tianzun laughed heartily, having thought Lu Yang would make some demand—turns out it was just this small matter.

"Thank you, Master Guiyuan, Master Dao—I mainly want to know how you solved the material problem and how to make the spacecraft reach light speed."

"Perfect—we're building ships now; you just watch from the side."

The dean was very excited, never expecting the Cultivation Realm to be so enthusiastic about him, even allowing him to observe such an important technique.

Only to see the Bandit Ancestor activate the embryonic form of the Speed Dao Fruit, granting the immortal gold the ability to fly at light speed, after which the Return to Origin Heavenly Venerable activated the embryonic form of the Unity Dao Fruit, merging the immortal gold and the newly constructed black canopy boat into one, resulting in a brand-new black canopy boat, widely praised in the market, being completed.

Dean Gao: "..."

No, I didn't blink—what just happened?

"Um, may I ask if this flying boat is considered completed just by being built?" He tapped the flying boat twice—does that mean it's done?

"Yes, feel free to ask if you have any questions."

"How does this flying boat achieve light-speed flight?"

"Simple—I just gave it the ability to fly at light speed, and now it has it."

"?"

Is this even human speech?
