Earth Cultivation Plan

The virtual space "Second World".

The once-thriving internet has suffered two major setbacks and has long since faded from the historical stage.

The first was the "Great Nirvana period," when the world entered the end times, a collapse of order. But even more devastating was the emergence of the "Second World," moving from the "Internet" to the "virtual world," a technological revolution.

The "Second World" is closely related to the lives of Earthling.

This virtual space was initially built on a virtual host purchased on Qiulong Star. Virtual world technology is very mature in the universe and is not a scarce commodity, especially since it is limited to Earth. At the time, it was purchased for only 100 million Black Dragon Coin.

It includes a wide variety of functions, such as learning, martial arts training, financial transactions, a training ground, shopping, food, virtual games, and more.

However, such ordinary virtual hosts are inevitably somewhat rudimentary, and the homemade consciousness-sensing helmets used are even more inconvenient.

Therefore, more resources were available afterward, and the virtual host underwent two upgrades.

The current version of the "Second World" virtual host costs as much as three thousand Hun Yuan Unit, which is comparable to the entire wealth of many ordinary Immortal God, and the range it covers is only ten light-years in radius.

The primitive consciousness-sensing helmets of the past have long been abandoned. Now, Earthling use Auxiliary Optical Computer, or even more advanced "intelligent Light Brain," to access the Second World Network.

The fact that a virtual host can reach this price speaks volumes about its quality. Even Intelligent life form would not be able to crack the detailed data within, ensuring information security. The "Trial Grounds" feature is particularly noteworthy.

It's no exaggeration to say that... before comprehending the laws, it's no less impressive than the "Slaughter Arena" of the Virtual Universe.

There is only one virtual world in the entire universe that allows people to cultivate the laws of nature: the "Virtual Universe" of the Primordial Universe.

Those who can comprehend the laws at the Cosmic level can be called "Galaxy level" geniuses. Among the domain lords, the vast majority cannot comprehend the laws, so this has no impact on Earth at present.

At this moment, a storm of discussion has been stirred up in the "Second World".

"Wow, did everyone see the fireworks outside?"

"Those weren't fireworks. They've been going on for a long time, and there's no smell of gunpowder. It must be some kind of special secret technique."

"A secret technique? Good heavens, what kind of secret technique could cover an entire globe?"

"Who do you think did this?"

The colorful lights above the horizon shimmered in people's eyes, creating a very beautiful scene.

What interests everyone even more is who did this?

Some people guessed it was the country, because it's hard to imagine someone capable of doing this, but yesterday wasn't a holiday, so there didn't seem to be any special reason.

Some people even confidently speculated that it was Luo Yanchang, the son of the Luo Family, who was marrying his girlfriend.

The Luo Family is now arguably the most well-known family on Earth.

In contrast, Thunder God only has one daughter. She had a major falling out with Thunder God when they were young and ran away from home. It took 16 years for them to reconcile, but she had already gotten used to a simple and ordinary life.

Hong's offspring are not particularly talented in martial arts. Hong himself experienced the era of the world's strongest martial artist and the Limit Martial Hall, so he is relatively indifferent to such matters.

Lin Yan still has no children.

Therefore, the Luo Family had many members and was the most powerful.

Xu Xin and Luo Hua both hold important positions in Jiuzhou Company and do not need Luo Feng's help. As department heads, their bonuses are already very high, and they can easily develop their family business by investing a small amount in it.

Luo Yanchang is Luo Feng's eighth-generation descendant.

This argument does indeed make a lot of sense to many people.

But--

In a residential building in Tianjing City.

A young girl in the prime of her life sat by the window, looking up at the dazzling lights and Fire Tree Silver Flower in the Firmament. The brilliant light and shadows floated in her pupils, and the basic information of the famous biologist Wen Zhi'an came to mind, giving her a more certain answer.

"That person today really was the legendary Speaker Lin Yan."

"The one who became the world's strongest at just 21 years old, dispelling darkness when humanity was in despair."

She blinked, and a strange sense of happiness welled up inside her.

They were already legends, myths, but by chance, I witnessed their romantic story firsthand.

Snowflakes fell silently onto their shoulders and hair, the moonlight dappled, and the lights in the villa cast a gentle glow.

Lin Tangtang quietly made a face at him, not wanting to disturb the moment, and turned to go inside.

In the silvery-white world, only the figures of lovers embracing remain.

The dense vines in the backyard quietly peeked out, their colors constantly changing, and the leaves swayed merrily.

Wen Zhi'an didn't speak, but simply held the person he had been longing for tightly in front of him, feeling the warmth of his breath and listening to his strong heartbeat.

Lin Yan, his gaze pure.

On the balcony of the second floor of the villa, the whole family watched this scene with joy on their faces, but tears flowed silently down their cheeks.

"Xiao Yan is back..." Qiu Baihui's eyes were red and her voice was a little hoarse.

Although you can see it in the Virtual Universe, it's different. The child hasn't come home, so how can a mother be at ease?

Lin Yuanhe stared blankly at his son, who had grown to a size he could hardly imagine, then lowered his head and sniffed.

He paused for a moment and said, "Let them stay a little longer, we'll wait a bit longer."

Wen Xiuyong's eyes shone brightly as he nodded.

That brat is finally back.

He was satisfied with Lin Yan in every other way, except for one thing that he resented: he was never home.

After Devouring Beast and launching a counterattack on the Wilderness Area, Wen Xiuyong thought that the kid had finally achieved his goal and could settle down with his beloved daughter. However, he never expected that the kid would go to the universe in the blink of an eye. He then participated in the Cosmic Humans Genius Battle, won first place in the entire universe, left Earth, and went to the largest stage in the vast universe.

The father-in-law was suffering.

But looking at the development of the Earth over the years, he also knew the reasons behind it all, and he couldn't voice his complaints.

Because he understood that the man they had placed their hopes on since his youth had always been doing the right thing.

Lin Yan gently inhaled the fragrance of Wen Zhi'an's hair, his gaze tender. At this moment, he recalled a long time ago, when he dealt with the Golden Horn Beast and returned two years later.

It was snowing that day too, and the moonlight was just as beautiful.

Back then it was two years, but this time it's been over two hundred years. What kind of longing must she have accumulated this time?

Different from myself.

Lin Yan's heart holds much more than just her; it holds the Earth, the universe, and a grander, more magnificent world. He will not stop for any one person.

But for Wen Zhi'an, he was the most important part of her life.

Lin Yan recalled his first encounter with her as a young girl in the summer when he first came into this world, and all the little things between them.

He hugged her tighter.

A sense of gratitude rose in Lin Yan's heart, thanking her for her silent yet unwavering choice all along.

"I've already made other arrangements before I came back, so I'll probably be staying on Earth for a long time," Lin Yan said softly. "It will be longer than when I left."

Wen Zhi'an gently raised her head, her clear eyes looking at the man's face, and murmured as if in a dream, "Bad man, I miss you so much."

"So I came back." Lin Yan ruffled her long hair.

He leaned close to her ear and whispered, "Zhi'an, do you remember what I told you before I left?"

"Which sentence?" Wen Zhi'an smiled slightly, her expression innocent and charming, but she pretended not to know.

"What do you think we should name our future child?" Lin Yan asked, his eyes bright, boasting, "I've been thinking about this a lot lately, and after much thought I've come up with a few good names. You can choose one."

Wen Zhi'an looked at Lin Yan, feeling a sense of peace in his heart.

Because he always keeps his promises.

She didn't speak, but her eyes blinked as if they could speak, conveying the message, "Don't keep me in suspense."

So Lin Yan stopped hiding himself and began to show her his amazing talent for naming things.

I'm not pretending anymore, I'm coming clean!

I'm a naming master!

Lin Yan laughed and said, "Although all these names are good, my favorite is 'Lin Teng,' and I'm sure you'll like it too."

He smiled smugly.

My son, Lin Teng, is destined to be an emperor.

Wen Zhi'an looked at his smug expression and was a little confused.

Seeing that her reaction wasn't enthusiastic enough, Lin Yan thought that perhaps the name wasn't protagonist-like enough to bear the destiny of Strongest Human Genius. He then tentatively asked, "Lin Fan?"

"Think about it again." Wen Zhi'an shook his head, clearly not satisfied.

Upon seeing this, Lin Yan quickly realized his mistake. How could he accept such a case of misattribution?

"Lin Dong!" He was full of confidence, pulling out his trump card, feeling that this name was definitely within his grasp.

The ultimate martial art can shake heaven and earth!

This is all the love and care a father can give his child. If you can't become the ruler of the universe, don't come to see me.

"You should focus your efforts on other things. You've done enough. Leave the name to me." After careful consideration, Wen Zhi'an made this decision.

Upon hearing this, Lin Yan immediately became anxious!

Novels are indeed deceptive; one should still believe in one's own wisdom Humanity's Strongest Genius.

He made a last-ditch effort. "Lin Guai Guai!"

This name will surely awaken a woman's innate maternal love.

The last trace of reluctance in Wen Zhi'an's heart was severed by the sword of wisdom. After a friendly negotiation with Lin Yan, she cruelly deprived Lin Yan of the right to name the child.

She looked at Lin Yan with great vigilance; this man was dangerous!

In the blink of an eye.

It is already the fifteenth day of the twelfth lunar month.

In the few days since Lin Yan returned, he has not cultivated and has been spending time with his family. From his family, he learned that Luo Feng has already passed down his lineage to the eleventh generation in just over two hundred years. Lin Yan did not feel envious at all, but was secretly proud.

My decision back then was definitely the right one.

Looking back, when they left, Luo Feng's family consisted of only a few people, and his two sons were only 11 years old. Now, more than two hundred years later, Luo Feng has not returned home yet, but there are already eleven generations of descendants, and the Luo Family has nearly two thousand people in total.

Luo Feng might think it's a good thing, but Lin Yan has a different perspective. If this happened to him, he would have a real headache.

I'd better just focus on having my little Superman.

Lin Yan has just returned and will be staying on Earth for a long time, so there is no rush to immediately upgrade Wen Zhi'an's genes to ten times the normal level. He plans to wait a while longer. However, he has been persisting in his efforts despite the ineffective results in the past few days.

His heart is sacred.

Everything is for the great revival of the human race!

On the fifteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, an uninvited guest appeared at the house.

"Hello, Lin Yan."

"According to our investigation, your act of setting off fireworks and firecrackers has violated Article 8 of Chapter 2 and Article 30 of Chapter 5 of the 'Tianjing Public Security Regulations.' We will impose an administrative detention of not less than three days and not more than fifteen days on you, and conduct safety education and legal education."

Standing outside the villa, the man in uniform looked at Lin Yan with a solemn expression.

"Bang!"

The door was immediately slammed shut.

Then the door was knocked on again.

"Go to hell with you." Lin Yan laughed and scolded, "You, Liu Mingxuan, used to be so cold in front of me, but now you can even joke around. It's different when you become an ancestor."

He greeted her, "Sister-in-law, please come inside and sit down."

Standing in front of the door was a rather handsome man who seemed unapproachable, but at that moment a faint smile appeared on his face.

Beside him stood a beautiful woman.

It was Liu Mingxuan and Wang Xinyue, a married couple.

Because all the other countries have migrated to new planets, only one country remains on Earth now. The former Federal Parliament has been abolished. The person in front of you was the one who stood in the highest position for a very long time.

The current political system is ultimately decided by the "Central Court," in which Lin Yan is still only a figurehead for the time being. Among the others, he knows three people: Liu Mingxuan, Chen Lian, and Zhu Xi.

Jia Yi devoted himself entirely to his position as president of Star River University, while Deng Jun, who created the novel "Po Jun Sword," also taught at Star River University.

Lin Yan's claim that he was an ancestor was not entirely unfounded.

Liu Mingxuan was born into a military family with strict family traditions. Although he was different from the Luo Family, he still had many children and grandchildren. He was an orphan with no elders in his family. He did have a father-in-law, but he was sentenced to death for assassinating Lin Yan in the Wilderness Area.

Lin Yan led them into the villa, Wen Zhi'an made tea for them.

"Ming Xuan wanted to see you a few days ago, but I stopped him. Lin Yan, you just got back and need to reunite with your family. I didn't want to disturb you, so we waited until now," Wang Xinyue said gently, glancing at Liu Mingxuan.

In fact.

The outermost area of Lin Yan's residence was always protected by the Military, with soldiers on duty and patrolling. The fireworks Lin Yan set off that day started from there, and this was quickly reported.

Given the scale of this incident, it was actually quite easy to guess. Xu Xin had already asked Wen Zhi'an about it, as she was still hoping for Luo Feng's return.

"It's alright." Lin Yan smiled. "I should stay on Earth for at least several hundred years this time. Speaking of which, when I first came back and saw the changes on Earth, I felt like I could hardly recognize it."

He chuckled and joked, "Captain Liu is indeed capable."

"This has nothing to do with my abilities," Liu Mingxuan shook his head and said. "Throughout history, the development of human civilization has been limited by productivity and means of production. Now that we have broken free from these limitations and have endless resources to utilize, it would be strange if someone could not do it well."

Lin Yan chuckled.

According to the contract signed with Virtual Universe Company, Jiuzhou Company will distribute dividends to shareholders only after 100 years when its operations are relatively stable.

At that time, he had just left Chaos City, and his first dividend was a total of 540,000 Hun Yuan Unit.

At the time, the Ganwu Branch explained to Lin Yan that the consumption of virtual games was not high. This was because Lin Yan had influence in the Ganwu Universe Country and the Mu Xing Universe Country, so he occupied the largest game market in these two Universe Country. Moreover, many people had the habit of making large recharges, which were enough for tens of thousands of years of consumption.

So it will be very popular at the beginning, but unless the user base continues to expand, the revenue will be relatively flat.

According to estimates, the dividends distributed over the next 100 years will not exceed 100,000 Hun Yuan Unit.

This number is already alarming.

However... the user base has been growing at an alarming rate.

This is because Lin Yan's performance became increasingly extraordinary after that, to the point where he was highly likely to become Universe Overlord. With such talent, such status, and such importance, it was obvious that he would have a certain identity and position in the Virtual Universe Company in the future.

Aside from the two major Universe Country Qianwu and Mu Xing, the heads of the Virtual Universe Company in the other 1006 Universe Country were also shrewd and experienced. They were also keen to promote "Kunlun" as a gesture of goodwill. After all, such things did not violate any rules, and they did not seek merit but only to avoid mistakes.

Virtual Universe Company is also open to giving geniuses some benefits in this way.

Although it was far less effective than the promotion of Qianwu and Mu Xing Universe Country, the growth in user scale based on 1006 Universe Country was still extremely terrifying.

Purple Lightning Marquis also told Lin Yan that they had done a data assessment and that within 20,000 years, Kunlun could be ranked among the top ten virtual games.

As a result, dividends were distributed in installments over a period of just over a hundred years, reaching a total of 5.62 million Hun Yuan Unit. Of these, Luo Feng, Hong, and Thunder God each received 10%, while the remaining 70% belonged to Lin Yan.

The dividends received by Xu Xin and Luo Hua came from online catering and financial investment, respectively.

Aside from the initial dividend, which did indeed stem from a need to cultivate the life forms of the World Master Plant Lifeform, Lin Yan, with his net worth exceeding hundreds of billions, genuinely looked down on these few million Hun Yuan Unit, even though... Huyan Bo's inheritance didn't amount to that much.

The money was handed over to Wen Zhi'an, with a special instruction. "Spend it quickly, or you'll never run out."

Therefore, Liu Mingxuan only needed to propose reasonable solutions and never had to worry about money.

The only one who needs to worry is Wen Zhi'an, because he really can't spend all the money.

If it weren't for the fact that many things require high standards, such as virtual hosts with 3,000 Hun Yuan Unit, Earth's own industries would be perfectly capable of driving development.

"Ming Xuan, speaking of which, I do have something to tell you," Lin Yan said.

Liu Mingxuan nodded seriously. "Just tell me."

Lin Yan solemnly said, "After getting rid of the limitations of productivity and means of production, you have a goal that you must achieve... cultivate talents, not just martial artists, but talents who can reach the pinnacle in various fields."

"Therefore, we need to make some reforms in education. I will inform Jia Yi to come here later, and we will discuss this in detail."

He looked serious.

This is also the goal he must achieve during his time on Earth.

Lin Yan does not advocate promoting martial arts on Earth and suppressing other fields of survival. This is not only because Earth is a civilization and a race, and it would appear abnormal if it did not pursue diversified development, but also because of another more important factor.

The Earth lineage was created by the Mountain Master, and it is destined to be an extremely powerful lineage with astonishing potential, mainly manifested in the aspect of the soul.

Huaxia's five thousand years of brilliant civilization have produced countless remarkable figures.

During the period of national awakening, amidst foreign aggression and internal humiliation, many outstanding figures were able to achieve the greatest success in history despite the greatest adversity, all for the sake of their ideals. Their will was so firm that they could be described as having "Heart Like a Blade that can cut through all obstacles."

During the Spring and Autumn Warring States period, the Hundred Schools of Thought debated and argued with each other in terms of ideas and culture, which created an unprecedented academic landscape and a brilliant era in which many people were praised as "sages".

Their thoughts even guided Hong and Thunder God's path thousands of years later. Can this not be described as "Unity of Heaven and Man and man, Heart of a Child"?

Hong's case is unique, and it's difficult to determine whether any ancient person ever reached such a level.

Lin Yan never favors the past over the present. So, if so many talented people with extremely firm wills and profound minds could emerge in the past five thousand years, why can't they emerge now?

They might be academic researchers, Marquis, emperors, or even just farmers tilling the fields. Each of them has achieved remarkable success in their respective fields or attained inner fulfillment and contentment.

They may be brilliant throughout history, or they may be completely unknown.

Is talent important?

Of course it's important.

Under normal circumstances, a galaxy can produce one Cosmic level being, and the entire Ganwu Universe Country only has tens of thousands of Immortal God.

Their exceptional talent could make them domain lords, World Master, or even immortals.

Is talent important?

It doesn't matter at all.

Lin Yan's goal in promoting the Planetary level is to advance the overall bloodline of Earth Humanity, so that the bloodlines currently at the ninth level in the universe can reach the fifth or Sixth-class level of "adulthood as Planetary level" as quickly as possible.

But this refers to overall progress.

If it happens to an individual, the Virtual Universe Company has developed a "Bloodline evolution agent" that can modify bloodlines, allowing one to easily grow to the Domain Lord level, and reaching higher levels of cultivation is not particularly difficult.

This includes the crucial aspect of law compatibility, which can also be compensated for with a wealth of treasures.

Although Hong and Thunder God are not particularly talented, they have abundant resources and are still qualified to gain a foothold in the Virtual Universe Company, which is full of geniuses.

Therefore... in Lin Yan's view, the most important thing is willpower, character, and the potential and value you can demonstrate!

If someone comparable to "Li Er" or "Kong Qiu" could appear on Earth, it would mean that his talent was so low that he was unable to cultivate at all. How could Lin Yan possibly give up carving a beautiful jade just because he was stingy with resources?

He didn't even need to invest anything; the huge profits that Jiuzhou Company had seized could be put to good use.

Huaxia has a history of five thousand years, but these five thousand years are history. There may be another five thousand epochs, or even fifty million epochs in the future!

In those historical records, we can clearly see that, limited by the availability of productive forces and means of production, it was simply impossible to implement individualized education and universal access to education.

Those poor people, let alone go to school, couldn't even afford to eat, let alone gain knowledge and culture. They were trapped in their narrow villages and could never leave.

Now it is entirely possible, depending on only one thing: whether Lin Yan wants to do such a thing.

Lin Yan wanted to give it a try.

Because he truly didn't believe that Hong, Thunder God, and Luo Feng could possess a will comparable to that of Immortal God when they were weak, and that others were destined to be inferior to them.

They may emerge in various fields and show their brilliance. By then, their character has matured, and further cultivation may lead to great achievements later in life.

Of course, the core goal is still to promote martial arts.

What Lin Yan wants to do is to enable them to continuously learn, continuously think, and continuously realize the high value of life through their own choices.

In other words... make them shine.

He wants to create an even more glorious era in this greatest historical upheaval of Earth Humanity civilization, so that the stars in the Firmament will shine brightly and their voices will resonate in history and the future.
