Chapter 610: Chapter 610: Investigation Results of Planet No. 3
Xu Yi looked at Lu Ke and couldn’t help but smile.
Then he said, "Hmm, already level 6, and not just newly advanced; it seems like you’ve been cultivating for a while. It shouldn’t take more than a hundred days for you to break through to the peak of level 6."
Lu Ke found Xu Yi’s words even more unbelievable.
Was all this because she dual cultivated with Xu Yi yesterday?
Yes, she felt that the term ’dual cultivation’ was quite fitting to describe the state she was in yesterday with Xu Yi.
However, she was too shy to say it out loud.
After all, it’s a very ambiguous expression.
If she said it, Xu Yi might have a bad impression of her, and that would be terrible.
"Thank you, without you, I don’t know when I could have broken through to level 6," Lu Ke sincerely said.
Xu Yi waved his hand with a smile and said, "Thank you? There’s no need for thanks between us. Look, I broke through to the peak of level 6 because of you, and I didn’t say thank you to you either."
"Level, level 6 peak?" Lu Ke widened her eyes, somewhat incredulous.
After dual cultivation, Xu Yi broke through to level 6 peak?
Now, could he move to the territory of level 7 Fierce Beasts?
"Hmm, next, we need to accelerate toward the territory of level 7 Fierce Beasts. If we can complete the challenge ahead of time, that’s the best." Xu Yi thought he could make a trip back first, and then move toward the territory of level 7 Fierce Beasts.
Previously, Xu Yi had little confidence in completing the task early, but now he did.
After all, he had a gift bag of insights for advancing to level 7.
Given his and Lu Ke’s situation, Xu Yi felt his breakthrough to level 7 would go smoothly.
Then, with the annual gift bag, he might reach level 7 peak or even level 8.
At that time, hunting 10 level 8 Fierce Beasts would be no problem.
In over 400 days, he should be able to complete the task and gain control of the Star Gate.
Lu Ke had no objection to Xu Yi’s plan.
Moreover, she heard Xu Yi meant to bring her along.
Just as the two were about to set out, Xu Yi felt a slight fluctuation.
Soon after, three people appeared in the tent.
Or rather, three members of the Spirit Race.
Spirit God, Ling Qi, and No. 6.
"Is the situation on 3rd planet handled?" Xu Yi asked Ling Qi.
After all, Spirit God mentioned Ling Qi was tasked with investigating 3rd planet, so if Ling Qi appeared, it means the investigation is concluded or finished.
"Yes, it’s handled. We’ve formed an alliance with the people of Jialan Star, and the crisis is resolved." Ling Qi released major news.
Upon hearing Ling Qi’s words, Xu Yi’s eyes widened somewhat.
The civilization on 3rd planet became allies with the Spirit Race?
Spirit God glanced at Xu Yi and explained, "The people of Jialan Star are very interested in our Spirit Race technology. They want access to it and are willing to allow a hundred thousand members of the Spirit Race to train on Jialan Star, letting us study their cultivation techniques."
"Didn’t you say cultivation techniques are something no civilization wants to leak? Why would the people of Jialan Star be willing?" Xu Yi felt this good fortune came too quickly and too easily.
The Spirit Race lacks not talent but cultivation techniques!
With cultivation techniques, the Spirit Race might quickly catch up to the Jialan Civilization, right?
Ling Qi stepped up to answer, "Due to isolation, the people of Jialan Star were unaware of the vast Cosmos beyond their star. Moreover, their planet may initially have been shielded by a more advanced civilization, preventing them from leaving the planet or outsiders discovering it. Only by chance did we Spirit Race disrupt the shield and discover them."
"A more advanced civilization, the one that left the Star Gate?" Xu Yi knew the Star Gates on 1st and 2nd planets weren’t left by the Spirit Race but by another more advanced civilization.
Spirit God nodded, "Yes, it matches my thoughts; I feel that possibility is high."
Xu Yi was somewhat puzzled.
"Why do that?" Xu Yi couldn’t understand why isolate them like that.
Moreover, as Ling Qi mentioned, both internally and externally shielded.
Letting Jialan Star believe they were the only ones in the universe.
"The purpose should be to protect the civilization of Jialan Star," Spirit God said uncertainly, for apart from the civilization that acted, who else knows the reason?
"If the Jialan Civilization uses your Spirit Race’s technology, would they leave Jialan Star? Would they threaten humanity?" Xu Yi considered this as a matter concerning all humanity’s safety and needed clarity.
With the Spirit Race’s technology, Jialan Civilization would undoubtedly leave Jialan Star for exploration.
Thus, Xu Yi’s focus was the latter part – would they threaten humanity?
"They have the means to eradicate humans, but we’ve not disclosed anything about 2nd planet to them. We don’t fully trust Jialan Civilization yet. If humanity successfully completes the challenge, you will become our spirit allies; we’ll offer technical support and aid. Also, humanity and 2nd planet can be retreats if conflicts arise between us, Spirit Race, and Jialan Civilization."
"Moreover, when we acquire cultivation techniques, we’ll immediately find a way to transmit them. I’ll have someone deliver a copy to you," said Spirit God, glancing back at No.6.
No.6 immediately bowed his head to Xu Yi.
"From today onwards, No.6 is your subordinate. Complete the challenge, and he’ll guide you to gain control of the Star Gate, helping humans migrate to 2nd planet. We’ll also transmit any cultivation techniques through No.6 once obtained."
Xu Yi really didn’t expect such arrangements from Spirit God.
Does she really have such faith in him, to invest so many resources?
Cultivation techniques are incredibly valuable!
They’re the cornerstone of a civilization’s strength.
Could it be Spirit God fell in love with him?
Pshaw, the swell of confidence from reaching level 6 isn’t good, not at all!
Snapping back to reality, after all, he and Spirit God are different beings; such thoughts shouldn’t exist.
Spirit God likely sees humanity’s potential.
After all, the Spirit Race’s goal is the Divine Race, that overwhelmingly powerful top-tier species.
If humanity couldn’t grow, it’d mean nothing to the Spirit Race.
While Xu Yi was lost in thought, Ling Qi continued, "My sister brought 499 humans from Earth Star for you to train; they’ve awakened into 108 Divine Masters and 391 Mages. Once you complete the challenge, they will all be handed over to you. They will be utterly loyal to you. Hopefully, they will help humanity grow stronger."
Ling Qi herself is among the 100,000 headed to Jialan Star for training.
Thus, she disclosed many details directly to Xu Yi.
News after news overwhelmed Xu Yi.
He hadn’t guessed Spirit God was cultivating 499 loyal subordinates for him.
Indeed, such investment is substantial!
