Blueprint (Version 2.0)

Jia Yi looked at them, a sense of relief creeping into his expression.

It is precisely because of the emergence of such successors that Huaxia has been able to achieve its current glorious future.

Compared to Liu Mingxuan, he was more at peace with himself. He didn't think there was anything wrong with Lin Yan's idea, nor did he think the sacrifices they would face were unacceptable.

On the contrary.

Jia Yi thought Lin Yan's suggestion was excellent, as it took all aspects into consideration.

"As the ancients said, 'A kind heart cannot command an army, and a benevolent heart cannot govern.'" Jia Yi said, "If you are in this position, you must be aware of this. If you are indecisive and lack a broad perspective, you will not be able to have a long-term vision. This will have a bad effect on both yourself and others."

He truly experienced the Great Nirvana period and was an extremely important core member of Huaxia. During those most difficult times, Jia Yi often dispatched a team, and before they even began their mission, he already knew their ultimate fate.

This was a decision made after careful consideration.

Those soldiers understood as well, yet they went without hesitation.

Those days caused Jia Yi deep pain and made him truly realize the despicable feeling of being powerless when there was no other choice in a predicament.

When a nation and its people are facing a life-or-death crisis, the army is the last line of defense. Even if it means shedding blood, it will preserve the flame of hope.

Incompetence is something closer to suffering than death.

Jia Yi had already figured this out long ago.

Perhaps they could choose to let things take their course and allow them to develop freely, but if they only make such a decision when considering the past and the future, it would be a sign that they are unwilling to take responsibility.

They could have done better.

There could have been a more ideal outcome.

Lin Yan's proposed plan was different; in Jia Yi's view, it was essentially an improvement on the original Monster War.

The opponents they face will be more powerful, yet they will remain within a controllable range overall. However, only they know the concept of "controllable," which is enough to put considerable pressure on Earthling.

It will not affect the living space of ordinary people, but it can have an impact on the whole world and promote the development of society.

Unlike the monster apocalypse that paralyzed the social system, the Base City were divided into many factions. In order to resist the monsters, many bad phenomena emerged, causing the social order to develop in a distorted direction.

However, under the leadership of the nation, the "underground cave" can take a holistic view, mobilize the power of all walks of life, strengthen the cohesion of the earth, and make a grand appearance of a new generation of outstanding figures.

Only a very small number of heroes can create the era. Most people need to take advantage of the times to rise to the Nine Heavens!

Jia Yi pondered, "But... Lin Yan, have you thought about this?"

"After these Cave World were discovered on Earth, considering the powerful threat they pose, I believe many people would propose leaving Earth and migrating."

All other major countries have already begun immigration, and now only Huaxia remains on Earth. The fact that Lin Yan is the Lord of the Milky Way Galaxy is not a secret.

"Lin Yan, since you said you want to keep the Inside story strictly confidential, you naturally don't want others to know the truth and avoid unpredictable consequences. So... those who don't know the truth will inevitably fear the powerful enemy and propose to abandon their homeland."

"What should we do then?"

Of course they want to cover up the truth.

For those who will emerge from the mountains of corpses and seas of blood in the future, their comrades and fellow soldiers will have died here.

If they knew the truth, it would be very difficult for them to accept this fact.

It could even lead to unpredictable consequences.

Lin Yan said, "This is actually easy to solve. Unless absolutely necessary, the suggestion to abandon Earth will only be accepted by a very small number of people. As long as a pillar of strength appears on Earth during this period, it will give them enough confidence."

He looked at Jia Yi and Liu Mingxuan and smiled, "While the Zerg Warrior are still at the highest Cosmic level, Earth has already produced Domain Lord level powerhouses. This level of strength is not enough to wipe out the underground caves, but it can still play a crucial role in a real emergency."

"As the strength of Earth's powerful beings increases, they will also encounter even more powerful Zerg Warrior."

"Moreover... I have prepared a large amount of mineral resources and knowledge inheritance in these Cave World. The more dangerous it is, the greater the gains will be. From now on, although these Cave World are dangerous, they also have countless opportunities."

"The previous reliance on Jiuzhou Star's commercial trade for sustenance will come to an end for the time being, and we will seek development through this new method."

The various opportunities that Lin Yan left here are based on Yun Mo Star Master Huyan Bo. In summary, whether it is secret techniques or wealth, they are all beyond his reach. They are enough to buy dozens of star fields and are worth tens of millions of Hun Yuan Unit!

For a Life Planet where cultivation civilization is still weak, this is an astronomical figure that is almost unimaginable.

Unlike the Yun Mo Star Inheritance, which belongs entirely to Luo Feng, this underground treasure will become a wealth for all humanity, helping them grow.

Of course, it will be more difficult to obtain and will take longer.

It will be possible to achieve this only when Immortal God appear among Earthling.

That's more than enough. In Lin Yan's view, he might have already broken through to the Venerable realm by then, and only then could Earth truly be considered to have entered a period of rapid development.

"Lin Yan, I have a question." Liu Mingxuan frowned in thought.

Lin Yan smiled and said, "Go ahead."

Liu Mingxuan was somewhat puzzled. "You said before that if Earth were discovered by Alien Race, it would cause unpredictable consequences... Logically speaking, since you can easily create such A World, even reaching a diameter of hundreds of millions of kilometers, wouldn't you be able to include Earth in that A World?"

"Such a vast world is enough to sustain the Earthling for countless years. It seems there's no difference if you release it when you feel the time is right."

"Difference?" Lin Yan smiled. "Of course there is a difference."

"It's normal that you don't know some things; even Immortal God can hardly know the real reasons behind them."

Liu Mingxuan and Jia Yi were taken aback.

Even Immortal God could hardly know the reason.

What's the Inside story behind this that makes it so secret?

"The humans in the 1008 Universe Nations are actually only a part of the human race," Lin Yan said slowly. "In some special secret realms that evolved from the Primordial Universe, many landmasses will naturally emerge, or through artificial means, countless humans will also live on those super-large landmasses."

"It is said that some large landmasses have diameters of hundreds of billions of kilometers, and the population of one large landmass can be comparable to that of a Universe Country."

"Within the Human territory, there are many lands in these Cosmic Secret Realm, places filled with abundant Universe Origin Energy. The humans living there are almost Planetary level by adulthood, nurturing many powerful individuals," Lin Yan sighed. "That's one aspect. There are also a large number of Immortal God among humans, and in the divine kingdoms of these Immortal God, a large number of humans also live."

Liu Mingxuan raised an eyebrow.

He could understand what Lin Yan was saying.

Whether it's "land," "divine realm," or "A World," the principle is the same. Although the universe is vast, it is mostly endless space, and the carrying capacity of a single Life Planet is vastly different from that of a super-large landmass.

This is quite normal.

Lin Yan continued, "The Divine Kingdom Humans, the humans of the terrestrial Cosmic Secret Realm, and the humans of the Universe Country —these together make up the entire human race."

"Of these three, the human population of the Universe Country is the smallest." He shook his head.

"You should know that those Cosmic Secret Realm are comparable to a Universe Country in a single landmass, and it is easy to build tens of thousands of continents in a single Cosmic Secret Realm... The 'god kingdoms' of the Immortal God are also incredibly vast, and a large number of humans can live in them."

"Since a large number of humans can survive on the land of the Cosmic Secret Realm, why is it necessary to wage war to fight for territory?" Liu Mingxuan raised this question, which really puzzled him.

War is about territorial disputes!

Why argue?

With a divine kingdom, A World, and a supercontinent, it shouldn't matter how large the population is.

Lin Yan smiled and said, "That's the key point."

"It's like how plants need enough sunlight to grow. If plants are too dense, none of them will grow well. The formation of life is very special. Whether it's Flesh-type life, Mechanical Lifeform, Plant-type Lifeform, etc., as long as it's life, it absorbs the 'essence' of the entire universe during its gestation."

Life is conceived and grows by absorbing special energy from the universe.

For example, if there is only one Life Planet within a 1,000 light-year radius, and that planet has 10 billion people, then almost all the cosmic energy within that 1,000 light-year radius is used to cultivate that one Life Planet.

And the "Cosmic Secret Realm".

With a population comparable to that of a Universe Country, yet crammed onto a large landmass, the population density is many times higher, naturally resulting in a much smaller supply of "Cosmic Essence."

And "Divine Kingdom Humans".

The divine kingdom is located in a spatial rift, not in the original Universe Space. The amount of Cosmic Essence it can absorb is pitifully less than that of the "human beings on the land of the Cosmic Secret Realm"!

Lin Yan slowly said, "According to the information I have seen, the Divine Kingdom Humans are the most numerous, but they can only cultivate to the World Lord level. Over the countless years, only 9,082 Immortal God have been born, all of whom had Special Encounters. Without Special Encounters, the Divine Kingdom Humans are destined not to become 'immortal'."

"The humans on the land of the Cosmic Secret Realm rank second in number. Like the 'humans of the Universe Country,' they can cultivate to become Immortal God, but the probability of producing a 'Universe Venerable' is outrageously low!"

"The humans of the Universe Country are the fewest in number, yet they occupy the largest territory! Throughout history, a large number of Immortal God have been born, and among the Universe Venerable, a full 98.2% are all from the Universe Country."

Liu Mingxuan and Jia Yi were deeply shocked by what they heard.

They never expected that such a secret existed behind the scenes; if Lin Yan hadn't told them, they would never have been able to imagine it.

Territory is like fertile soil!

The larger the territory, the greater the potential of the race, and the higher the probability of producing a super strong person.

"The gravity of these Cave World is more than a thousand times that of Earth. In fact, it was intentional on my part. The same reason applies to the terraforming of Mars, where I also made you a 'industrial base'."

Lin Yan said, "The key is to ensure that the embryo is nurtured by the Earth in order to have sufficient potential."

"Of course, if you want to use those lands in the future, you can develop them for animal husbandry, planting, industry, etc., that's no problem."

The divine kingdom is built by combining the "Inner World" with Space Fragments. To be honest, there are some differences between the two, but they are not significant.

If they could truly thrive and multiply here, then the World Master would have reached his peak.

In fact.

Lin Yan had some things he hadn't said.

That is... among the countless Life Planet in the Universe Country, Earth is the most special!

Within a radius of thousands of light-years around Earth, there is only one other Life Planet. Moreover, through the "Rooting" talent of the Green Line Devouring Worm, Lin Yan has conducted tests and found that Earth not only has an invisible influence on the soul of the embryo, but also produces "Cosmic Essence" far more efficiently than other Life Planet.

These are all the results of modifications made by the powerful Alien Race beings known as "Mountain Master".

Based on this consideration, Lin Yan had thought about making good use of the "Earth's" complete development plan, so he didn't react much when Liu Mingxuan said that the population growth rate was declining.

From a macro perspective of the human race, the strength of humanity lies in its strong reproductive capacity and large population. With such a large base, the probability of elites emerging is higher.

But this does not mean that Earth should follow this path.

Having too many children at this stage is meaningless.

Human populations have never lacked people; apart from those with superior bloodlines, they all have a strong reproductive capacity.

Anyone can give birth.

Why not have children?

Because of the lack of territory to support population growth.

The bloodline of Earth Humanity is nothing special; the ninth-rank bloodline is considered the lowest among the countless races in the human population.

The special thing is the Earth itself.

The Earth's diameter is over 10,000 kilometers. Even if space is utilized to the fullest extent and special arrangements are made for pregnant women to live in, each person would need to stay for at least seven months. In reality, the number of people that can be accommodated is still quite limited.

The uniqueness of the soul alone is not enough.

Hong and Thunder God are undeniably special, yet even after decades at the Planetary level, they are only at the seventh or eighth rank. Their genes are inferior, and they face bottlenecks at every turn. If Luo Feng hadn't received the Yun Mo Star Inheritance, they wouldn't have been able to reach the later stages of their power; at most, they could only reach the Cosmic level.

Therefore, if we want to better promote the rise of the Earth, there is a bottleneck in "quantity," so we need to think more about "quality."

Lin Yan deliberately took advantage of the fact that there were still few people around and used this time to pay an astonishing price to accelerate the genetic optimization of Earthling by popularizing the Planetary level, in order to elevate the bloodline to the fifth level, which is "adults can Planetary level".

With a current population of around 10 billion, the cost of maintaining Planetary level populations for thousands of years on this base is nothing to Lin Yan.

However, if there are many people involved, the costs and difficulties would be unimaginably high, making it unnecessary to do so.

Normally, in a galaxy with hundreds of thousands of Life Planet, only one Cosmic level can appear.

A race with a "fifth-class" bloodline can cultivate a group of World Lord level, and there are countless domain lords and Cosmic level.

At this stage, if we want to further optimize genes to "Stellar level upon adulthood," no one can use such a simple and crude method anymore. The cost is incomparable, and the benefits are completely disproportionate. It would be better to use the money to cultivate stronger individuals.

Normally, an "elitist" approach is adopted.

It means that only by limiting oneself to a small group of highly talented individuals and then developing further can one ultimately achieve bloodline enhancement.

However, Lin Yan did not intend to do that.

His idea was... once Earthling reached the "fifth-class" bloodline, the secrets of Earth would likely have been exposed, allowing it to enter a period of rapid development.

By designating Earth as the "ancestral planet," revealing its unique secrets to the public, and strengthening policy guidance, the population growth can be boosted.

At this point, the base camp can naturally be changed, but it will not be the Milky Way Galaxy or the Black Dragon Mountain Star Domain, but Cosmic Secret Realm.

Born from Earth, with limitless potential.

After birth, they use the divine kingdom as a transit point to travel to a large landmass established in the Cosmic Secret Realm, where they live and multiply.

Just like the "Lasao World" of the Golden Horn Clan.

Ideally, it would be Cosmic Secret Realm Universe Origin Energy. With Fifth-class Bloodline and up-to-date education, reaching the "Stellar level" through cultivation here wouldn't be too difficult.

Even after a long period of change, and even if it has become extremely large, it may still reach the "third" or "fourth" level of human bloodline.

This is absolutely terrifying!

Among the countless bloodlines of humankind, only a few dozen can be considered "first-class" or "second-class," while "third-class" bloodlines can certainly be described as powerful.

With a strong bloodline to pave the way in the early stages and a strong will to exert its power later on, the difficulty of producing strong individuals is naturally reduced.

If everything proceeds as Lin Yan predicted, then there will be no need to worry about lacking a goal.

Because at that time, Earth will inevitably become another powerful force for humanity, capable of participating in inter-ethnic battles, and even... given time, able to establish its own powerful Cosmic Army, just like the Universe Country!

At that time, Lin Yan would not just be called a "genius." The most outstanding genius on Earth would also receive the best training, just like the Core Member the five major powers.

Lin Yan believes—

With his existence, Earth, this nascent race and civilization, will inevitably become the most dazzling jewel in the crown of humankind in the not-too-distant future.

"When will the 'underground cave' project begin?" Liu Mingxuan asked.

"Wait a little longer." Lin Yan smiled. "I will create some unusual celestial phenomena in the near future to increase their attention."

"Furthermore, I also want to make some modifications to the Earth."

"Transform the Earth?" Jia Yi exclaimed softly.

"Yes," Lin Yan said with a smile. "It's already all Planetary level now. As the number of powerful beings increases, I'm afraid Earth won't be able to withstand it. So I've prepared a perfect transformation plan. Even if there's a war Immortal God, it won't be a big problem."

Both Liu Mingxuan and Jia Yi nodded.

This is something that definitely needs to be considered.

Lin Yan took this even more seriously. The value of Earth was no less than that of Peak Supreme Treasure. If some fool were to blow it up, he wouldn't be able to piece it back together.

In fact, the Virtual Universe Company will modify the planets where geniuses reside to ensure their safety, such as Canglan Star. As for Earth, for the time being, Lin Yan will have to pay for it himself.

He had researched terraforming plans for Life Planet in the Virtual Universe Network, and because he was willing to spend money, the plan he chose was even better than the one the Virtual Universe Company used to terraform Canglan Star.

Certainly.

Planetary terraforming is not something one person can do alone.

When the Virtual Universe Company was transforming Canglan Star, it had a large number of staff to assist. Lin Yan had no staff, and the current level of Earthling was also unable to provide assistance, but his methods were much more extravagant.

He had Ilina train 10,000 Worker Bee Zerg at the World Lord peak!

Rich people really can do whatever they want!

The Worker Bee Zerg is not a high-level Zerg, and the cost of breeding them is only one-tenth that of the ordinary Tiger Armor Zerg, but they do have their special features.

As a constructive Zerg, the Zerg's most famous creation is the Zerg Mother Nest. The Mother Emperor builds the Zerg Mother Nest using the help of the Worker Bee Zerg.

With their assistance, transforming the Earth would be much easier.

"Then I'll be going now."

Lin Yan smiled slightly, "Just wait for the good news that the Cave Creatures will appear on the surface and wreak havoc."

"Speak properly," Jia Yi said with a laugh.

He also understood why this first underground cave was built on the location of Mist Island.

Firstly, Mist Island was quite special to the powerful figures of that era, so any unusual situations there would be taken more seriously and accepted more readily.

Secondly, this is the first time that Cave Creatures have appeared, so it's natural that they'll cause some commotion. The original Australian continent where Mist Island is located was designated as a pasture, so it's both reasonable and wouldn't cause too much damage if they went on a killing spree here.

Lin Yan laughed and then quickly left.

Jia Yi watched his retreating figure disappear, then looked at Liu Mingxuan and, seeing him somewhat lost in thought, couldn't help but ask, "Ming Xuan, what's wrong?"

Liu Mingxuan looked up at the black sun in the sky, shielded his eyes with his right hand, and whispered, "Lin Yan seems to care a lot about this... Can we really create such an ideal world one day?"

"It seems so close, yet so far," he sighed softly, filled with anticipation.

"Hahaha..." Jia Yi laughed heartily.

Liu Mingxuan looked over with some confusion.

Jia Yi opened his right hand, his lean face revealing incredibly bright eyes, and said with a resolute voice, "Our ideal world is right here in our hands."

"Create it."

"Believe that all good things are happening."
