Chapter 728
What does the senior want?
Seeing the aggrieved You Sanqian, Xu Chen gently grabbed at the void, reversing time and space, and resurrected the leader of the Holy Clan Alliance.
After searching through his soul, Xu Chen simply smiled.
“You have occupied the ancestral lands of those holy races, where a great number of treasures are buried.”
"That's why they formed an alliance. Didn't they discuss it with you beforehand?" Xu Chen's expression was somewhat strange.
“I detected that they have formed a coalition and are charging over aggressively. Judging from the situation, there is no possibility of negotiation.” Xu Xuanshen also realized that something was wrong.
"It doesn't matter. Since it's close to human territory, we'll occupy it sooner or later."
"So what if there's a misunderstanding? Just show a little goodwill and let the remaining powerful members of their clans move out of this star sea area."
Xu Chen flicked his hand, sending the resurrected alien powerhouse back into his own territory.
"It seems the Holy Lord is in a good mood today," You Sanqian said with a smile. There are countless legends about the Holy Lord among the human race, but one thing is very important: any alien race that provokes the human race or the Holy Lord will be exterminated without mercy.
"Successful cultivation, in a good mood~"
As Xu Chen spoke, he began to explore this star field, searching for that unique Dao essence. However, after searching for a long time, he found that the various Dao essences in this star field were quite ordinary.
"It seems that this special Dao essence is not found in every star sea region."
Just as Xu Chen was about to leave, a divine thought from the Great Dao swept across the human territory.
In that instant, Xu Chen saw through the cause and effect, and placed the presence of the human race at the lowest level.
The human race was disguised as a lucky one that rapidly rose to power after acquiring the inheritance of an ancient ruin.
As the divine senses of the powerful beings on the Great Dao dissipated, Xu Chen skillfully used the Great Dao of Cause and Effect to reduce the presence of the human race.
A spatial portal appeared in front of Xu Chen. He stepped through it and arrived at the star field where Xu Qiangjia was located.
At this moment, in a slightly barren star field, Xu Qiangjia was frowning as he controlled a group of human powerhouses to evolve a battle formation.
"Father, why are we still in this barren land?" Xu Chen's figure appeared behind Xu Qiangjia, sensing the unique laws of this star field.
"It's not that I don't want to take humanity to a better star system, it's just that the rules of this star system are too peculiar. If we want to expand and annex other races, we need to follow the new rules here."
"When I arrived, the strongest human in this star field was only a Great Venerable, leading the human race to live in this star field in fear and trembling."
"And according to the rules of this star field, if a small race like this, which roams the star field, wants to challenge a Great Sovereign and occupy its territory, it would take at least a billion years before it can begin to invade a superior race."
"So there's no battle now, we can only wait in this unique star field." Xu Qiangjia used his divine sense to direct the battle formation to change back and forth in the star field.
"The unique Dao in this star field is a unique game that only exists in the special small worlds of our Star Sea Field. I never expected that it could be amplified to the entire star field in this living domain."
In Xu Chen's perception, the rules of this world are so strict that even the strongest beings on the Great Dao cannot violate them.
Within a short period of time after Xu Chen entered this place, the will of the Star Sea Domain had already transmitted several game rules to him.
The first rule is that unique outsiders like him are not allowed to participate in the struggles of this star system; if they do, they will be suppressed.
The second option is that one can submit their unique insights into the Great Dao of other star regions in exchange for the favor of the will of this star region.
As for the remaining few, they are either exploitation or restriction.
"I have no way to control the rules of this world. If we want to develop, we can only wait patiently."
“If Dad finds it troublesome, I can take you back.”
He couldn't control the rules of this star system, but he was confident he could bring the humans back.
"What trouble is there to be afraid of among our own kind? How can we give up halfway?"
"I brought this group of human powerhouses here. The human race is living a much better life than before. It's just a matter of time. We can just wait it out."
"You don't need to worry too much about me. Even if we encounter enemies, they will be alien races of the same level. Right now, the human race is still a small race and can only fight against other small races. We can easily pick out a Saint Venerable expert from among them and take care of them."
Xu Qiangjia pointed to the human army that was evolving its battle formation in the distance. The weakest among them was at the Saint Venerable Realm, and nearly 10% of them were wearing full sets of innate treasures.
“The laws governing this world are somewhat unique. I may go into seclusion here to study them for a while,” Xu Chen said.
"Alright, I'll have someone prepare a cave for you." Xu Qiangjia was about to give the order when Xu Chen quickly waved his hand.
"There's no need to build any more; I can use my portable cave dwelling."
As Xu Chen spoke, he was about to release his personal cave dwelling and enter seclusion.
But seeing Xu Qiangjia bored and only able to devise battle formations, Xu Chen waved his hand and took out a set of fishing gear and handed it to him.
"What's this for? Why am I supposed to fish here?" Xu Qiangjia asked, puzzled.
"I have imbued this fishing gear with a unique and mysterious power. My father can use it to fish in all the star fields and catch good things."
"In your spare time, you might as well go fishing here."
Upon hearing Xu Chen's words, Xu Qiangjia's eyes shone brightly.
"You brat, why didn't you bring out this good stuff sooner!"
As he spoke, Xu Qiangjia quickly disbanded the battle formation and began experimenting with the fishing gear that Xu Chen had given him.
Seeing his father's hurried actions, Xu Chen simply smiled and entered his personal cave.
Xu Chen had also dabbled in the game before at Xinghai No. 1 Middle School, but this niche path could only be cultivated to the Great Venerable realm at most in the Xinghai Domain, and it was impossible to sublimate it further.
Here, as soon as Xu Chen sensed that unique Dao of Game, the Dao of Game that was imprinted within him began to sublimate and merge into the body of the Dao.
"Interesting. I haven't even grasped the basics, yet it has already sublimated and merged into the body of the Great Dao."
Xu Chen began to deeply comprehend the game's great Dao in this star field.
Sixty million years passed in the blink of an eye, and another strange band of light appeared in the Holy White Space.
“Each of the three thousand Great Daos is not to be underestimated. This Game Dao, combined with the Dream Dao, unleashes immense power when they merge.”
As Xu Chen spoke, he gently raised his hand, and the power of the game and the Dream Dao merged together to form the Dream Dao Realm. Xu Chen felt that if he were to face Tai Chu again, he could easily kill him.
"Excellent, excellent, a very fruitful harvest."
When Xu Chen emerged from seclusion, he saw his father still fishing in the star field.
"Dad, have you caught anything good lately?" Xu Chen strode over to Xu Qiangjia's side.
"Not bad. We caught nine invincible Saint Venerable Realm behemoths, seven special treasures, and the rest were just some odds and ends, all acquired and innate items. Although they're not worth much, we can still enjoy it." Xu Qiangjia said with a smile on his face.
"That's good~"
Xu Chen formed a hand seal, and the Dream Path and the Game condensed together into a jade pendant.
Jade Pendant [Wearing this increases luck by 10%]
The game path belongs to one of the great principles of rules. Xu Chen can use this unique game path to create a game, or anything related to games.
"Dad, if you carry this with you, it will increase your luck and help you catch good things."
The moment Xu Qiangjia took the jade pendant, the fishing rod tightened suddenly.
A final, immense force nearly pulled Xu Qiangjia to his feet, but Xu Chen managed to subdue him with a single palm strike. After a struggle, a massive Kunpeng was fished out.
“A Kunpeng at the Invincible Saint Venerable Realm is perfect; it can serve as my father’s mount.”
Xu Chen waved his hand gently, and the Kunpeng, which was the size of a small world, was suppressed by Xu Chen and turned into something in his palm. Then, it established a master-servant contract with Xu Qiangjia.
A small golden bird with elongated golden tails appeared on Xu Qiangjia's shoulder, nuzzling him affectionately with its little face.
"This mount is quite nice. It seems your jade pendant really works."
Xu Chen laughed heartily upon hearing this.
"Dad, you continue. I'll go back to the human race first."
Just as Xu Chen was suppressing the Kunpeng, news came from the human race, asking Xu Chen to go and take a look.
The territory of the human race, the Great Stream Sect's domain.
A newborn baby, radiating the aura of the Great Dao of Zhou Tian, was held in front of Xu Chen.
“From birth, he has lit three lamps, understands the Great Dao, and this is his future.” Xu Chen carefully examined the cause and effect of the baby in front of him and found that this child has the potential to reach a higher realm than the Great Dao in the future.
As for whether he had reached the Great Dao, Xu Chen's power of time could not detect it.
"After so many years, with the help of the treasure of destiny, our human race has finally produced a seed on the path to the Great Dao," Xu Chen said with emotion.
His grandson, Xu Shengshang, once had a slight chance to advance to the Great Dao, but that chance was extremely slim. When Xu Shengshang reached the Invincible Saint Venerable Realm, for some unknown reason, that chance to advance to the Great Dao quietly disappeared.
Xu Chen had also noticed this matter, but he knew in his heart that it was definitely the work of the will of this star sea region.
"Junior brother, why don't you take on a personal disciple?" Yang Wanshan said from the side.
“No need. This child has been on an extraordinary path since birth. He doesn’t need a master. He just needs to grow up among the human race with his father and mother.” Xu Chen thought for a moment and decided not to get too involved with this seed on the path of the Great Dao.
If he advances to the Great Dao and Jiu Yuan still can't catch him, he might easily vent his anger on him.
"In that case, I won't assign him a master. Let him thrive among the human race."
“But a kid with such talent, even if you don’t take him as your apprentice, he’ll be standing in front of you in no time,” Yang Wanshan said with a smile.
"Then let's see what he's capable of!"
Xu Chen looked at the sleeping baby in his swaddling clothes and gently waved his hand, leaving a small mark inside the baby's body that even Jiu Yuan couldn't detect.
Upon entering the Great Xu Cave, Xu Chen immediately sensed a murderous aura.
Xu Chen then saw countless standardized innate spiritual treasures in the sky, occupying the entire sky above the cave.
"This guy, almost every Saint Venerable of the human race can equip it."
Xu Chen waved his hand, and a long, deadly spear appeared in his hand.
"Its power is already approaching that of a low-grade innate treasure, not bad!"
"If it's good, find a way to get me a few more Xuanhuang treasures so I can examine them."
"Or perhaps you could pass on your insights into the crafting of the Xuanhuang Treasure to me," Da Xu said, glancing at Xu Chen.
"Insights into refining the Xuanhuang Supreme Treasure".
As Xu Chen spoke, he thought of refining innate treasures, and the terrifying level of proficiency he possessed.
Based on the timeline, it would take him at least three trillion years to max out his proficiency in the Chaos Gate of Weapon Refining within the Holy White Space.
The sheer amount of time had already robbed him of the motivation to continue working on it.
"If I have the chance, I'll get you a few Xuanhuang treasures."
"As for gaining insights into refining, that's a long way off."
"Is that so?" Da Xu's eyes dimmed.
I've come here to share my insights into three special Dao principles, which should be helpful for your future weapon crafting.
As Xu Chen spoke, he shared the three special Great Daos within the Holy White Space with Da Xu.
At first, Da Xu thought it was just an ordinary understanding of the Great Dao, but after sharing it, he was attracted by that unique understanding of the Great Dao.
“Interesting. This unique Dao is more interesting than the primordial divine script in the Xuanhuang Supreme Treasure. Allow me to study it further.”
As Da Xu spoke, he began to study it.
Seeing that Da Xu was in the zone, Xu Chen left.
"Meow~"
As soon as Xu Chen returned to his cave, he heard a meow, and then a white figure jumped into his arms.
The Nine-Saint Cat affectionately rubbed its head against Xu Chen's chest, meowing to show its affection.
"Little White has been waiting for her husband here for over ten thousand years." Su Yueyao walked over from the garden in the distance.
"Little White, why didn't you come to me before?" Xu Chen asked, peeking out from under the cat.
"Meow." (My owner wouldn't let me leave, so I finally managed to escape.)
Nine Saint Cat said this with a wronged expression on his face.
Okay~
"I'll take the kitten to the beast realm first," Xu Chen said to Su Yueyao.
The Beast Realm is full of giant beasts that Xu Chen fished out from other star regions. The ones that are good-looking and have outstanding combat power were given to his descendants by Xu Chen, while the rest are ugly and useless.
In the vast beast realm, the nine-tailed white cat has transformed into its complete form and is feasting in this world.
In no time at all, they had devoured six invincible Saint Venerable Realm behemoths.
"Eat slowly, that's all. There won't be any more later, and I'll have to wait until I have time to make you more," Xu Chen said, watching the Nine Saints White Cat wolf down its food.
Upon hearing its owner's words, the Nine-Saint Cat slowed down its eating pace and became more elegant.
It only stopped after eating the ninth invincible Saint Venerable Realm behemoth, then shrank contentedly and jumped onto Xu Chen's shoulder.
"You can really eat. At this rate, even a powerful expert on the Great Dao would probably have to go to some trouble to feed you." Xu Chen stroked the soft white fur on the back of the Nine Saint Cat, experiencing the joy of raising a cat.
After eating and drinking its fill, the Nine Saints Cat nestled in Xu Chen's arms and fell asleep.
Xu Chen, on the other hand, sensed a special will descending upon him through the Nine Sacred Cats.
"Young friend, now that you've made it big, have you forgotten your old friend?" A clear, ethereal voice rang out.
"How could I forget you, senior? If it weren't for your protection, the human race wouldn't have been able to grow so strong." Xu Chen stood up to show his respect.
"Shouldn't you repay what you owed me in the past?" A strange emotion was mixed in with the ethereal voice.
"What does the senior want?"
"Coordinates of a starfield in an undeveloped region." (End of Chapter)
