Chapter 699 Su Zhou's Sermon (6666)

2021, early autumn, September 21st.

Zheng Country, Nanling, New World Exploration Department, late at night.

Moonlight poured down between the flowing clouds, like a silver staircase.

Bai Yingxue, who hadn't left work even now, sat alone in a large, tidy office. The young woman, who was frowning as she wrote a work plan, looked up at the bright moon between the clouds outside the window, and couldn't help but look a little dazed, as if recalling some distant memories.

No… distant?

It was only three years ago.

Since Bai Yingxue 'reborn' into this world, more than three years had passed.

This powerhouse, who had experienced training and suffering in other timelines, used a mere three years to allow her body, which knew nothing about cultivation, to embark on a path only one step away from the Earth Immortal realm, ready to ascend to immortality at any time.

It was also these three years that she witnessed a world that was completely different from the future she knew in the past.

"Ah, I didn't expect to be working until late at night again… I'll go to the automated restaurant to drink some qiongjiang (spiritual nectar) later."

Standing up, Bai Yingxue stretched her limbs in front of the large floor-to-ceiling windows of the office. Because she had awakened the 'Five-Colored Phoenix' bloodline, the ends of her hair, like some Mary Sue novel, had turned into a five-colored highlight, with the colors of the Five Virtues Divine Light rotating between the strands.

The so-called qiongjiang was simply a general term for various new spiritual liquids. Whether it was new spiritual plant coffee or special cocoa milk, they were all a type of it… In fact, under the agricultural reforms of the Zheng Country's Ministry of Agriculture, the almost completed popularization of spiritual plants had turned almost all food into spiritual food that only cultivators could eat in the past.

This point seemed inconspicuous, but for Bai Yingxue, who had experienced more than ten years of resource rationing, this expression of extremely abundant resources was so beautiful that it was a little dazzling.

But she had gotten used to it.

Since being captured by Su Zhou from the crowd and joining the New World Exploration Department, Bai Yingxue had witnessed the earth's transformation step by step in this department closest to the New World and the new era.

Although Su Zhou led the Earth Fleet to the outer reaches of the Star Sea when she gradually adapted to the high-intensity work, and had been gone for two years, his New World Exploration Department did not stop because of this.

On the contrary, even after losing Su Zhou and Tang Yuan, the two mainstays, the New World Exploration Department still perfectly completed all the tasks assigned to it by the country and society with the support of Shao Qiming, who came later.

Just like Bai Yingxue now, she was actually writing an exploration plan for another brand-new world: the time-space gate discovered in the underground karst cave in the Northwest Plateau was determined to be a large time-space realm attached to the former 'Kunlun Secret Realm', a time-space realm related to 'Bu Zhou Mountain'.

This time-space realm discovered traces of immortal god battles from 300,000 to 400,000 years ago, and it was speculated that it should be part of the ancient water-fire battle ruins. The continent of the entire world showed traces of burning and condensation.

Not only that, but its world number was also very early… Among all the time-space realms, it was one of the earliest batch of world realms to be born. Although it was not famous, it was very ancient.

Therefore, Shao Qiming believed that this world was likely related to the 'Initial Realm' and would be of great help to Su Zhou in finding the origin of the Heavenly God's Scale falling into the world.

It was for this reason that Bai Yingxue had been working overtime until now.

Because, she also wanted to understand the truth behind everything in this world.

"Almost finished."

After drinking a cup of coffee, Bai Yingxue continued to make plans. After confirming that the entire action process was almost perfect, the reborn girl, whose physical age had just reached adulthood and could be called a beautiful girl, nodded in satisfaction: "As long as Vice Minister Shao stamps it, the recent work will be over."

After Su Zhou and Tang Yuan both left Earth, Shao Qiming, who was originally an adjunct member of the New World Exploration Department and routinely assisted Su Zhou in his work (in fact, it was basically him and Tang Yuan who did the work), was temporarily promoted to Deputy Minister and was responsible for handling the daily work of the New World Exploration Department.

Bai Yingxue was a little confused at first. She had never heard of Shao Qiming's name in her previous life, but after learning about his relationship with Su Zhou and personally experiencing Shao Qiming's work ability, she immediately felt a great pity.

A person with such abilities and talents died so easily in his previous life… If it wasn't for Su Devil's current life being a complete sweep, it would be hard to say what the Shao family's situation would be like.

"Alas, if there were people like Minister Shao to assist him in the previous life, then Su Devil would not be so busy and extreme, so tired and silent, and he could also fight in the starry sky with peace of mind."

She sighed like this, but now Bai Yingxue no longer demanded perfection. She also knew very well that every world had its own possibilities, and all she could do was to do her job better.

Thinking like this, the Mary Sue beautiful girl sent her work plan to Shao Qiming. Bai Yingxue looked at the time, it was only 1:30 in the morning: "It's still early—then I'll surf the internet first, and then go to sleep!"

Making a happy decision, leaning back in her chair, Bai Yingxue opened her personal terminal and then picked up the dedicated access glasses and put them on her face.

Then, she began to 'surf the internet'.

Obviously, the internet that Bai Yingxue was on was not the internet on Earth.

But the 'Galactic Central Network' that was completed about a year ago and connected to the 'Galactic Netway'!

Since two years ago, when many ancient civilizations in the Milky Way began to reconnect with their old friends and investigate the situation of the entire Star Sea, the Galactic Netway AI also contacted Earth.

This Netway AI, built by an ultra-ancient pioneer civilization, is essentially a super-giant psionic structure that relies on stellar psionic energy to propagate. Its body should be located in subspace, and what is expressed in the material universe is the psionic wave band propagating in the universe.

In order to better connect to the Galactic Netway, the Earth civilization chose to build a psionic signal enhancement base around the sun, which is the giant metal fog radio station on Mercury.

Thanks to this, the Earthlings, who originally only had a vague understanding of the many civilizations in the universe, understood how lively and noisy the entire Milky Way, and even the entire universe, was after the base station was built.

—How could the immortal gods of the past be able to shut themselves off in their hometown for hundreds of thousands of years?

While puzzled by this question, naturally, there were also a large number of people who rejected the Galactic Network base station.

Some believed that this was giving alien civilizations a port to invade Earth, while others believed that such high-frequency psionic radiation would destroy the entire ecology of Earth's humans—a significant proportion of people who opposed the construction of the Galactic Network base station firmly believed that stellar-level psionic radiation would destroy the entire Earth's ecology, making humans more susceptible to transcendent diseases.

These people had been demanding that the United International stop building the base station… but obviously, this request was obviously permanently shelved.

According to what Bai Yingxue knew, there were indeed quite a few elementary cosmic civilizations that were coerced by their own people and destroyed the Netway AI's base station, self-secluding themselves from the Milky Way's big stage… that was also a choice, but obviously, they would never know the latest and most comprehensive news of the Milky Way.

Since having the Galactic Network, Bai Yingxue's daily entertainment method was it.

However, speaking of which, it was also a bit strange.

Bai Yingxue was, after all, a reborn person, and she knew the development context of the Earth civilization very well.

Although it was not a perfect development, a slow and heavily damaged road, she knew very well the technological background of the Earth civilization.

Yes, the Earth civilization was very powerful. In terms of psionic energy-related technologies, there were also various transcendent inheritances and technologies related to time-space gates. Many Galactic Upper Kingdoms could not compare to it, and it could be regarded as first-class in the observable universe.

But even so, the Galactic Netway base station was not something that could be built casually. After all, the Earth civilization had never been involved in this kind of technology.

At least other cosmic civilizations would have to come and teach hand-in-hand for a period of time before carrying out a copy optimization.jpg.

But the result was that the Earth side didn't know where they got various related technologies, and quickly completed the construction of the Mercury base station without any help from other civilizations.

Not from the Pioneer Space—although the Pioneer Space also provides technology, it also takes a process to absorb technology and transform it into practical construction capabilities, and Bai Yingxue didn't think it would be that fast.

Overall, the existence of the Mercury base station was very 'black technology'.

It felt like related personnel suddenly understood various related powerful technologies and then turned them into practical entities with their own efforts… This inexplicable technological improvement gave Bai Yingxue a sense of alertness.

In the Earth of her previous life, similar situations also happened. Some people would suddenly understand some mysterious technologies from sources they couldn't explain themselves, and this mysterious technology could always help humans get rid of their current predicament—but similarly, Earth's enemies would also encounter this situation.

This sudden technological explosion and mysterious event was called 'black technology emergence'.

"It feels like what Su Devil said before leaving Earth, about the 'Ancient Lord's' dependents!"

"However, which great existence do the dependents who can provide black technology and inexplicable technology belong to?"

Feeling worried, Bai Yingxue put the confusion behind her after thinking for a while.

——Anyway, her rebirth was also because of an ancient Lord, so there was no need to care too much about this kind of thing!

Just wait for Su Devil to come back and let him solve it!

[You are connecting to the Pan-Galactic Universal Network, identity confirmed: Earth civilization, number 9454, user name: Bai Yingxue]

[The network in your area is smooth, no abnormal psionic fluctuations detected, no abnormal mental fluctuations detected, no extreme ideologies detected]

[Welcome to the Galactic Netway]

The psionic energy-linked Galactic Netway can be accessed even by non-physical souls.

Skillfully entering the password to unlock her account, Bai Yingxue swiped through the latest news on the network's homepage with one hand, roughly taking in the information.

[Lower Galaxy Star Region Report on the Void Cult: The Tasur wandering fleet civilization successfully led the Void Cult fleet into an ambush, a great victory]

[The Bellar civilization reopened the subspace channel, but exploration was stagnated due to subspace storms: According to reports, the psionic storms inside the subspace have not subsided, and psionic users below the fourth level cannot enter at all]

[The Tiel Civilizing civilization promoted its sixty-ninth primitive race this year, making them civilized intelligent life, awarded the title of 'Order Expander', and enjoyed related privileges of the Galactic Netway system]

[How to carry out pioneering colonization in the dark star field without a star: Pioneer Guide of the Far Star civilization (essential)]

The top news of the Galactic Network was roughly like this, there were reports on the Void Cult, news about Galactic exploration, and commendations for some who were committed to expanding the number of intelligent creatures and guiding many primitive races to become intelligent civilizations.

And sharing posts like sharing their colonial experience, helping various intelligent creatures to expand, and making them stronger would also be given an essence by the Netway AI.

According to what Bai Yingxue knew, the Galactic Netway AI, as a creation of the ancient super-pioneer civilization, its database was almost all-encompassing, and there were many very powerful AI civilizations attached to it, holding considerable resources.

This was also why, as a network AI, it could be called side by side with many Galactic Upper Kingdoms, and even have a transcendent status.

Bai Yingxue liked to read this kind of related news the most on weekdays.

Not for any reason, just because she had never seen it in her previous life!

In the Earth of her previous life, when Bai Yingxue died, she had not yet contacted the Cenostian people, let alone the Galactic Netway AI. The entire Earth civilization was spinning around in the solar system—and as an immortal god with a fairly young and enterprising mentality, the girl naturally liked to read this kind of almost gossipy news.

However, what she really liked recently was a book located in [Classics].

[History of the Universe]

[Chronicle written by the Galactic Netway AI, the largest and most complete historical classic in the Milky Way]

[Read the entire book to understand the beginning and end of the Milky Way civilization and its rise and fall, and know the current situation of the universe void!]

[This book is used for popularizing the history of the Milky Way, and must not be used for commercial purposes, only for learning and communication——Galactic Netway AI]

There were a total of 78.27 billion volumes of the History of the Universe, which recorded a total of 10.7 billion years of the Milky Way's recorded history (the history of the initial formation stage was meaningless). Its content covered thousands of things, basically all civilizations and race histories later than the civilization that created the Netway AI were recorded, and it also recorded the specific details of quite a few major battles in the Milky Way, including the first to 3.25 millionth wars against the Void Cult.

Of course, the reason why it was a considerable part was because many overly fierce wars would destroy a large number of stars, so that the Galactic Netway AI could not record specific details, and could only be estimated at the end.

But even so, for Bai Yingxue, such a historical encyclopedia could also allow her to better understand the current situation of the Milky Way.

With this book, the girl also understood why the Cenostian people of her previous life were so wary of Earth civilization.

The answer was because of Twilight.

That 'Dusk Evil God'.

Earth civilization was actually a civilization with a very strong Twilight aura. Basically, all the god systems had legends and records related to Twilight, and the invasion of Twilight-type life and the Void disaster was always the primary enemy of the major god systems.

Like the Norse god system, it was almost completely destroyed by the Twilight-type demon god beast. If it weren't for the fact that the remaining two gods could be considered to have supported the new generation, I'm afraid the entire Nine Worlds Tree would have been completely destroyed, and not even the remaining branches would be left.

Because of the destruction brought about by these Twilight-type lifeforms and demon gods, in the eyes of the Cerastiens, the Earth civilization of her previous life was simply a terminally ill patient who had been eroded by the Dusk Evil God. If they could not show that they could be reborn, they would naturally prepare to take action and destroy the Earth civilization, which was very likely to be transformed into a Twilight civilization.

Yes, even the Cenostian people of her previous life recognized that Earth civilization had great potential and ability, but precisely because of this, if Earth civilization was also completely transformed into a member of the Void Cult, it would be a disaster for the entire universe.

Even, it could be called a Milky Way detonator!

However, this life was different… Because of Su Zhou, the Descending Spirit Society did not revive the resentment of the Divine Sinister hidden in the Typhon Realm, nor did it go to the bottom of the Nine Worlds Tree to revive the new Twilight Demon God from the concentration of Twilight species corpses.

And the Deep Space Caller who would have attracted a part of the Void Cult fleet was also blown up at the first time, and did not cause any future troubles.

"Alas… Su Zhou has been gone for two years…"

Thinking of this, Bai Yingxue couldn't help but sigh. She flipped through the History of the Universe, which was about Earth, that is, the history of the former Black Territory Forbidden Zone, and couldn't help but sigh: "By the way, the immortal god civilization of the past was too self-enclosed, right? A full 120,000 exploration ships all disappeared in the Black Territory Forbidden Zone and never returned—aren't these all crashed on the moon and Mars!"

"No wonder the Cenostian civilization would think that Earth civilization was eroded by Twilight!"

And just as the Phoenix girl was complaining while reading the History of the Universe with relish, and by the way flipping through the real-time news gossip in the Galactic Network.

Suddenly, her private contact channel sounded a rapid prompt tone.

"Who is it… sending messages in the middle of the night?"

Forced to lift her gaze from the book, Bai Yingxue reluctantly looked at her private channel, and then got a jolt: "Eh?! Is it Minister Shao?"

"What is Minister Shao contacting me for at this time?"

Opening the address book, the girl cautiously clicked it open.

Then, she saw a string of concise small words.

[Go offline, emergency message, Su Zhou is back]

[Remember to look in the direction of Jupiter]

She was immediately stunned.

"What exactly happened?"

Going offline at the fastest speed, Bai Yingxue logged out of the Galactic Network, and then jumped out of the window in the first time, flying towards the top floor of the Nanling headquarters of the New World Exploration Department—not liking to go through the door was exactly the same as Su Zhou, after all, which Phoenix would take the stairs?

And when Bai Yingxue came to the top floor, she saw that her immediate boss for the past two years, Minister Shao Qiming, was standing on the mountain top.

The stars were shining brightly.

This youth, who had a handsome appearance and had always been gentle and steady in his dealings with people, was now suppressing the excitement in his heart and looking up at the starry sky in the northern hemisphere.

He did not speak to Bai Yingxue, and Bai Yingxue also followed Shao Qiming's gaze and looked at the starry sky.

The clouds faded—under the gaze of the two powerhouses who were almost Earth Immortals, they dissipated like a thin mist under the scorching sun.

Then, around the starlight representing Jupiter, a light almost like the sun was lighting up!

A round of cyan-purple brilliance, mixed with specks of golden light, was rapidly lighting up at the other end of the starry sky, bringing with it a flame flow that was even visible to the naked eye on Earth, spreading in the vacuum of the universe.

That was not a true star, but a pure display of psionic explosion, manifested as an 'image light'—but this image light, which should have been just an illusion, seemed to show a killing power close to substantialization at this moment. Wherever it passed, the psionic energy between the stars boiled, and the terrifying storm condensed into substance, sweeping across the entire northern half of the starry sky.

And all of this was the light from more than half an hour ago, and it had now arrived on Earth, still so bright.

At the same time, there was also a wisp of powerful, stable, and magnificent Divine Sense will that arrived at the same time.

"Su Devil… what is he doing?!"

On the top of the mountain, Bai Yingxue subconsciously took half a step back. She steadied her footsteps, stabilized her body, and the reinforced bricks under her feet even shattered and exploded because of this subconscious action.

The girl stared at the high sky in astonishment, and said incredulously: "His strength—what level has he reached?!"

"Celestial Immortal… no, no, this is almost Heavenly Venerate!"

In this mighty and vast Divine Sense will, Bai Yingxue seemed to see an egg… an egg that, although had cracks, could evolve into thousands of things, was both a dragon and a snake, a divine bird, a giant god, and a possibility aggregate of a dead star!

She saw the dead star giant god slashing the spirit god with a knife, and also saw the seven-headed red dragon devouring the sun, and the Candle Day standing in the void, with countless demons retreating, like a towering mountain of suppression!

Even, Bai Yingxue also saw that there were five strong phoenixes merging in the void, turning into an even stronger and larger five-colored phoenix, and then…

Then took off its wings? Turned into a Gatling machine gun?

Wait, what's going on?!

Seeing this, Bai Yingxue immediately broke out of the play, her eyes showing confusion: "What the hell is that?"

"That is also a phoenix?!"

Crack!

At the same time, the dazed girl heard a crisp sound. At first, she thought it was an illusion, but soon, she found out that it was precisely the sound of Shao Qiming's head full of wooden hair sprouting branches and growing cyan-golden branches and leaves in front of her.

"So that's how it is… the Way of the Divine Tree, there are such hidden dangers—the absolute existence, and the monster, are only separated by a line."

"However, if one can absorb this part of the knowledge and try to communicate with the entire world, one can implement one's own existence essence, turning the absolute self into the entire world—the world is in my body. Although this is also an absolute existence, it is completely different from a 'monster'!"

She saw that Shao Qiming showed a look of enlightenment: "So that's how it is, so that's how it is… my confusion can be answered in this way…"

"Correct, it's worthy of being correct!"

The flash in the sky, like the sun, lasted for nearly three minutes before dissipating.

But even so, the vast and magnificent aura, almost like a true star, had already startled all the forces in the entire Earth.

They knew that Su Zhou would return recently, otherwise they would not be able to prepare to welcome him, but they did not expect that as soon as Su Zhou came back, he would cause such a big commotion!

"Vice Minister…"

After the light had completely extinguished, Bai Yingxue, who had just put down her gaze from the starry sky, swallowed a mouthful of saliva. She asked a little cautiously, looking at Shao Qiming, who had also calmed down, closed his eyes, and seemed to be digesting his gains: "This, Minister Su is back, but what is this formation… all about?"

"Ah, Xiao Bai."

Hearing Bai Yingxue's voice, Shao Qiming opened his eyes. At this moment, there was a golden brilliance rotating in his eyes, like the rising and falling of the great sun.

Although he knew that Bai Yingxue was a reborn person, because she was really too tender, and the Divine Beast Inner Dao cultivation would be a bit like returning to childhood, just like Su Zhou was still a young man now, Bai Yingxue was still a high school student, so the youth was used to calling her Xiao Bai.

Converging his aura, Shao Qiming pondered for a while, and then said with a smile: "According to my guess, A Zhou should have just simply performed a 'sermon' on the entire solar system."

"Sermon?"

Hearing this word, Bai Yingxue felt that she seemed to have some impression, but before she could remember it, the youth nodded and said: "Yes, Celestial Immortals and Heavenly Venerates will conduct a sermon before and after becoming Dao, or before and after establishing a sect, to widely recruit disciples within the entire civilization."

Saying so, he seemed a little emotional: "A Zhou didn't do this before, because he felt that his path was far from being refined and perfect—but this time, I felt that A Zhou had integrated all his cultivation methods and condensed them into one."

"Therefore, this is when he began to 'preach'."

Saying so, Shao Qiming raised his head again and looked up at the starry sky.

Then, he showed a smile that shook his head because he knew too much: "Moreover, it's not just that… his doing this this time obviously has another purpose."

"That is to show his strength… to show his Dao to all the ambassadors of well-known civilizations in the entire galaxy."

"A gentle demonstration!"
