468 Metaverse

It was a chaotic battle between two sides. First, one of the old immortals was completely controlled by the other side, and it was unknown if he was dead or alive.

Then, the Heavenly Immortal Tong Tian tried to stop the person who had snatched the huge rock forming the space teleportation portal, but he died instead.

The situation had changed so quickly that the confidence of the immortal factions to interfere with the abandoned world fell. The few heavenly immortals who were still alive could not help but become more defensive.

“Tong Tian, what were you doing?”

Sword Immortal Cang Qing had changed from ruthlessly suppressing the Fire Scales Elder to focusing on fighting less fiercely. He maintained a distance from him at any time and focused on not getting injured.

“The immortal factions have lost. We can't continue fighting.”

A dazzling rune appeared in the diamond-shaped mark between the eyebrows of the female immortal with the jade horn. In an instant, her Immortal Lightning Technique was enhanced.

At this moment, she seemed to be a terrifying existence bathed in lightning. She had the appearance of a celestial being, and she seemed to want to purify all the dirty and evil things in the world.

“Third Brother, I'm sorry.”

Of the three old immortals, only two of them were left. In such a situation, they were unable to save him. Although the immortal factions were located in a distant galaxy, it was still possible for a heavenly immortal to cross it with their physical bodies.

However, by the time they crossed the space and returned to their galaxy, the headquarters of the Star Capturing Pavilion might have already been destroyed by the divine temple.

Were they already considering which large cities to attack?

The two old immortals had never felt so regretful. This time, they could be said to be returning in defeat. One of the top three combatants of the Star Capturing Pavilion had been eliminated, and their foundation had been injured.

Other than that, after the people from the immortal factions who had retreated far away recovered from their daze,

there was no need for discussion or orders. They spontaneously fled into the wilderness. In everyone's opinion, this chaotic battle had already been decided. Next, it was time for the immortal factions to fall.

“Hmph! Don't even think about escaping so easily.”

The Fire Scales Elder made up his mind. As one side retreated and the other advanced, the battle with Sword Immortal Cang Qing gradually moved away from the territory of North Mountain City.

He didn't know Chen Yiming, and thought that the huge rock had already been successfully obtained by the Infinite Island Group.

The reason was that no matter how big a commotion Chen Yiming had caused previously, he wasn't at the level of the star evolution realm like the powerful elders.

Unless there was a huge grudge between them like the Roc clan, he would not have paid much attention to him.

Every era had a group of geniuses, but too many of them died midway through their cultivation. Furthermore, although there was only a difference of two levels, there were not many who could completely unleash their potential to reach a higher level.

After many geniuses broke through to the jade star realm, their performance immediately became much worse. They might not even be able to successfully cultivate the unique divine power of their clan.

A divine power that was not inherited from the clan was even more difficult to obtain. It was extremely rare, and usually only those with powerful spiritual talent like the person with twin pupils could do it.

The holy monk from the divine temple also knew nothing about Chen Yiming. Since the Fire Scales Elder was certain that he was from their side, they naturally accepted this as the truth.

Soon, due to the chain reaction, the other heavenly immortals could not fight their opponents to the death, and they followed suit and retreated as they fought.

After a while, the area around North Mountain City became empty, and only Chen Yiming was left.

“Do they trust me that much?”

To be honest, Chen Yiming was a little confused. He had chosen the right time to interfere in the chaotic battle.

His divine power, Hidden Universe, had allowed him to take away the huge rock. The traitors who had launched a sneak attack were convinced he was on their side.

At this thought, Chen Yiming used the space anchor to teleport away.

Next, North Mountain City fell completely silent, leaving behind only ruins. However, the pursuit in the south mountain range was far from over.

The factions from the Infinite Island Group had originally planned to start attacking the immortal factions and then take advantage of the infighting to cause a huge commotion. The chaos had only just begun.

In the dark and lonely galaxy, the stars seemed to fill the sky.

These stars were actually moving at high speed, but they did not seem to be moving at all, as if they were monitoring every corner on behalf of the will of the universe.

The fleet of spaceships from the blue planet was moving silently towards the abandoned world.

A year ago, all the people who had entered the hibernation chamber to sleep were woken up and told of the change in direction. The spaceships of the various countries were really lively for a while.

The abandoned world could be described as a planet where gods roamed around everywhere. Such a powerful cultivation world caused intense discussion among the humans from the blue planet.

It could be said that in terms of strength, humans were like a nest of ants on the blue planet.

Other than Chen Yiming, there weren't many other strong people around. Those who had some strength were actually still in danger of being wiped out in an instant.

Therefore, there had always been objections as to whether this world was suitable for being a new planet for humanity, even though their initial plan was only to find a planet around the abandoned world and settle down there first.

In a biological laboratory on the Daxia spaceship, Professor Li Mingfu and Professor Xiao Huajun were studying an unknown creature that had appeared from the meteorite they had accidentally captured.

At the moment, the humans from the blue planet had completely embarked on the path of cultivation, but technology had not been completely abandoned. Powerful cultivators also had an advantage in scientific research that ordinary people could not compare to.

Firstly, one's energy and thinking speed were not on the same level. Secondly, the number of years one could spend on research was not on the same level. This greatly increased the potential of a scientist.

The higher the level of technology, the more knowledge it involved. This was an inevitable restriction, and there were no methods to forcefully overcome this knowledge gap.

Therefore, with the physiques of ordinary people, they would have spent most of their years learning and accumulating old knowledge. It was a pity that the time left for them to do novel research work was too short.

However, it was different for extraordinary humans who had embarked on the path of cultivation. For example, the chief scientist of the humans from the blue planet was Wu Susu, who was in the inscription realm.

Her brain had already widened the gap between herself and ordinary people, and most of the cutting-edge technology of the humans could be advanced by her alone.

Ever since the humans from the blue planet stepped into outer space, without the pressure of enemies attacking them, technology had undergone another huge development.

Nuclear bombs were no longer the strongest means of attack. Artificial intelligence technology, robotics technology, and so on were developing at an extremely fast speed.

The humans from the blue planet had really transformed into an interstellar civilization.

“Old Xiao, I heard that the computer laboratory next door really realized the idea of the metaverse some time ago. They plan to let everyone move around in the virtual world in the next three months.”

Li Mingfu took advantage of the time when the machine was performing its analysis to find a topic to chat about.

“Old Li, I don't think it's a good thing to have the metaverse. Compared to arduous cultivation, the new type of entertainment it brings about is naturally more tempting.”

Xiao Huajun put down the equipment in his hand and sighed.

The reason why he objected was mainly because his son had long been clamoring to form a team with a group of like-minded young people to go into the metaverse.

In private, Xiao Huajun checked some information and realized that it was similar to the job of gamers from many years ago, when the blue planet was not yet invaded by the otherworld.

In other words, if Xiao Huajun's son could not refocus his thoughts, his cultivation might come to a stop and it would be difficult for him to catch up later.

“Old Xiao, your thoughts can't keep up with the times. This metaverse also has a positive effect on scientific research that can't be ignored.”

Li Mingfu also had a son, but his son was a cultivation fanatic and had no interest in the metaverse at all. Looking at the angry Xiao Huajun, he felt relieved.

“Forget it. It looks like there's no hope for my useless son. It might be more suitable for him to get married and have children as soon as possible and nurture the next generation.”

Xiao Huajun felt a headache coming on at the thought of this. He rubbed his head and felt a little better.

“That's true. Who can accurately determine how long it will take to reach the abandoned world? That's almost half the distance across the width of the Hidden Dragon Galaxy. There might be all kinds of changes along the way.”

Li Mingfu immediately agreed with a smile.

There was now a consensus in the spaceship fleet that the abandoned world was the long-term goal of the humans from the blue planet, and it might take a few generations to reach this destination.

Moreover, just because they had arrived did not mean that the humans from the blue planet had the ability to directly descend into the abandoned world. Ordinary people could not withstand the environment there.

Excluding those above the master realm, the lifespan of those who cultivated to the master realm had already increased greatly. They were no longer on the same level as ordinary people.

It was also because of this that the popularity of the metaverse had recently overshadowed the discussions related to the abandoned world. This was especially true for the younger generation. There was a high chance that they would spend their entire lives on the spaceships.

In that case, since the abandoned world did not have much to do with them, other than getting married and having children, many young people were slacking off in their cultivation.

If not for the fact that the higher-ups of the human race insisted on tying all kinds of benefits to one's cultivation level, many people would have spent all their time on entertainment instead.

Even with hibernation technology, it could not stop this trend. Many young people just wanted to lie flat and hand over the heavy responsibility of cultivation to the next generation.

Time quickly passed by.

Time always passed quickly when one was chatting. Not long after, the machine beeped.

The two professors, Li Mingfu and Xiao Huajun, changed the topic and returned to focusing on their work. To the two of them, they felt that the arrival of humans from the blue planet on the abandoned world was a very distant matter.

It wasn't that they didn't think that Chen Yiming could find a solution. After all, Chen Yiming had created enough miracles on the blue planet. Anything was possible.

From the perspective of all the humans from the blue planet, it did not seem appropriate to go to the abandoned world with their weak combat strength. It was better to develop step by step along the way.

In a few hundred years, the overall cultivation level of humans would definitely increase qualitatively. At that time, it would be more suitable to go to the abandoned world.

There was another reason. The ancient books recorded that on the path of cultivation of gods, each period of seclusion lasted for a long time. Therefore, it was very likely that Chen Yiming had gone into seclusion for a long time.

The higher-ups were already mentally prepared that in the upcoming decades, other than leaving behind a spiritual will clone to guard the spaceship, Chen Yiming wouldn't send back any news.

In the abandoned world, hundreds of thousands of kilometers away from North Mountain City.

Because the villages in the wilderness felt that the ground was trembling violently, they roughly guessed that chaos was really about to descend, so they sealed off the villages and enacted martial law.

The factions from the source ore shops wanted to hide from the world, and if the factions from the Infinite Island Group wanted to find them, they would have to send out people to carry out a thorough search.

This was the cause of the chaos. The chaos would affect the south mountain range and even places that were further away. Nowhere would be completely safe.

Chen Yiming sat cross-legged on a small hill and waited patiently for a day and night before Gao Shuai and the black dog arrived.

The two of them looked harmless, but they had actually looted the resources of the immortal factions that had arrived from another galaxy. They had definitely gained a lot, especially since Gao Shuai had a spatial item on him. He would definitely not leave anything behind.

Other than that, the people from the Infinite Island Group would probably also have enough time to react. Once Chen Yiming and Gao Shuai were exposed, they would attract more than one or two gods at the star evolution realm to hunt them down.

“Brother, did you really crush the Heavenly Immortal Tong Tian to death? Did you secretly leave him alive? If we have a chance to fight our way back to the headquarters of the immortal factions one day, we can let him lead the way,” Gao Shuai made a fuss and asked.

“How could I have thought so far ahead? Once the divine power of the Reversal Palm was used, the other party would not even have a bit of dust left behind. At that moment, I realized that the Heavenly Immortal Tong Tian was too weak,” Chen Yiming replied casually.

If he was strong enough, whatever he said would be right. No one could refute him.

At this moment, Gao Shuai and the black dog had this feeling. They knew that the person in front of them was only pretending, but what he said sounded true. The Heavenly Immortal Tong Tian had indeed lost in a one-on-one battle.

The black dog wagged its tail uncontrollably. It had to cozy up to him. This time, it would not leave even if it was beaten to death. Furthermore, it had to show off the value of its special ability.

A breeze blew across the grass, and the fallen leaves rustled.

In the distance, the sound of conflict could be heard. From time to time, flames would soar into the sky, but the two people and the dog turned a deaf ear to it.

Chen Yiming waved his hand, and the divine power, Hidden Universe, was released. The huge rock forming the space teleportation portal appeared on the ground. The man-made marks that could be found inside had already been erased by him.

As for whether there were any marks left behind that were hidden deeply inside, he was not someone who specialized in studying array formations and barriers. Perhaps he had missed something or he might have erased it all.

“Gao Shuai, your butler seemed to have said that you have all kinds of terrifying killing formations. Hurry up and see if the secret technique left behind by the Star Capturing Immortal has been wiped out.”

When Gao Shuai heard this, he immediately went to work.

He was also very interested in the huge rock. It had to be known that only a small number of overlord factions in the galaxy could have such a thing. Whoever had it would immediately obtain what was equivalent to a powerful spatial ability.

Gao Shuai sat down cross-legged and placed his hands on the surface of the huge rock. He closed his eyes and carefully checked it.

Chen Yiming and the black dog waited patiently at the side. Although the huge rock was in his hands, Chen Yiming realized that he couldn't use it directly after studying it.

This special rock contained the space teleportation portal. Inside it was a complicated array formation. In addition, the three old immortals had set up restrictions on its use.

If one did not know how to undo the restrictions, it was equivalent to not having a key, causing one to be unable to activate the huge rock and turn it into a space-travel portal.

Time quickly passed by.

After a long time, Gao Shuai opened his eyes again and said, “There are still six marks restricting its use on the inside.”

“However, the essence spirit of a heavenly immortal is too powerful. You have to help with your spiritual will. Otherwise, I can't erase those marks alone.”

Chen Yiming nodded in agreement.

Soon, Gao Shuai led the way and broke through the restrictions. In the end, Chen Yiming removed the remaining six marks.

At the same time, in a cave, the two old immortals who were recuperating each spat out a mouthful of blood.

The marks were related to their essence spirits. The moment they were forcefully erased, no matter how far away they were, they would still receive the backlash, causing their injuries to worsen.

Vulgarities immediately erupted from the cave. The two old immortals from the Star Capturing Pavilion were extremely agitated.

Not long after, they cursed until they were tired out. The two old immortals looked defeated and helpless.

The huge rock from the Star Capturing Pavilion's space teleportation portal had been passed down for countless years, and even the deepest marks had been found and erased. This meant that it was almost impossible for them to retrieve it.

After all, the immortal factions from another galaxy. It was very difficult for them to really go against the local factions in the Hidden Dragon Galaxy. The price for sending out reinforcements was different for the two sides.

Furthermore, there was a serious mistake in their plan. The Infinite Island Group could mobilize more forces than expected, and they had even successfully joined forces with the moles on their side to launch a sneak attack.

Therefore, the two old immortals could only blame the source ore shops. They were simply cowards and were useless. As a result, the immortal factions had been tricked badly this time.
