Insight into the Truth
Blue Star.
The True Immortal Research Institute was jointly established by the three kingdoms of Da Jin, Huang Long, and Zhong Tu.
At this time, Han Guanglie of the Great Jin, Dong Xuanyuan of the Yellow Dragon, and Zhao Tianfeng, the Duke of Rong of the Central Kingdom, who were the leaders of the three kingdoms, were all present at the meeting.
Each of the three of them could represent the will of their respective countries. Similarly, they were the highest-ranking officials in their countries at the True Immortal Research Institute. Each of them could make their country tremble with a stomp of their foot.
He enjoys a high reputation even internationally.
"The starfall incident must be related to that 'Qianxing person'!"
The one speaking at this moment is Dong Xuanyuan from Huanglong Kingdom.
Although the Great Jin Kingdom was the first to make contact with the True Immortal of the Year Tree, among the three kingdoms, the Yellow Dragon Kingdom is the most powerful. Currently, their influence in the True Immortal Research Institute is also rising, and they are showing signs of replacing the Great Jin Kingdom as the new leader.
As he spoke, his gaze fell on Zhao Tianfeng: "Judging from this point of view, it is no longer appropriate for the Nantianmen Project Team to remain separately in the Central Kingdom. We should also bring the Nantianmen Project Team under the jurisdiction of the Three Kingdoms Joint Agency and raise its level of authority. We must find out the real purpose of that 'Qianxing person' in doing this."
"I agree with this statement."
Han Guanglie nodded. "Based on our analysis over this period of time, the combat equipment that destroyed the Star Spirit Platform is very similar to the 'Cheng Ying Mech' sent to us by the 'Qian Xingren'. In fact, it can be said to be a different model of the same type of combat equipment. In addition, according to our analysis, that 'Qian Xingren' may also be from the Realm of Immortality... According to the think tank's analysis, he is hostile to the Realm of Immortality forces that he has contacted with the Star Glory Federation. Therefore, he did not hesitate to spread the flames of war to the Star Glory Federation and even our world!"
Zhao Tianfeng raised his eyelids slightly. He knew that he could not stop it now, so he immediately said, "Then let's leave it at that. However, the key for the Nantianmen project team to contact that 'Qianxing person' lies in that observatory, so the address still has to be in our Zhongtu Kingdom."
"That's not right. I remember the key to the Nantianmen project team's contact with that 'Qianxing person' was the first contact person to communicate with him—Mr. Xie Yusheng. If we can invite him to work at the True Immortal Research Institute, we should be able to get closer contact with that 'Qianxing person' through the more advanced equipment at the True Immortal Research Institute."
Dong Xuanyuan said.
"Xie Yusheng..."
Zhao Tianfeng never expected that such a big shot as Dong Xuanyuan would take notice of such a small character as Xie Yusheng.
As his expression changed slightly, he quickly said, "We have lost contact with Immortal Suimu. Although we don't know whether this loss of contact is short or long, we can't gamble any longer. Perhaps the key to communicating with the 'Qianxing People' lies with the contact person Xie Yusheng, but what if this communication can only be carried out at the observatory of our Nantianmen project team? If Xie Yusheng leaves, resulting in the loss of contact with the 'Qianxing People' as well, who can bear this responsibility?"
Dong Xuanyuan and Han Guanglie pondered for a moment, but ultimately did not insist on this issue.
Better safe than sorry.
When it comes to contacting "aliens," you can never be too cautious.
After the meeting, Zhao Tianfeng immediately approached Lan Yuntian, Zhao Shanhe, and others. "Arrange for Xie Yusheng to join the Noble Council immediately, and grant him an honorary noble title..."
He paused for a moment, then added, "Directly confer upon him the title of Baron!"
"Baron!?"
Lan Yuntian was startled.
Barons are different from honorary lords who only enjoy the privileges of nobles; barons are titles that grant them the right to enter the council of nobles and make their voices heard.
In other words, this represents the core ruling class of the Middle-earth kingdoms.
If someone is transferred to a local position, they usually start as a fifth-level public official.
What does that mean!?
This means that he could at least serve as the lord of a city or the mayor of a prefecture, and in a full-fledged position rather than a deputy position.
It should be noted that even Zhao Family Qilin, the prodigy of the Zhao family, is only a viscount to this day. He was only promoted to level four in his official position half a year ago by gaining experience in the Nantianmen project team.
Xie Yusheng, an ordinary person with no background, was invited to the Noble Council and granted the title of Baron...
This is what it means to rise to the top in one step.
"I will personally write a letter of recommendation for him."
Zhao Tianfeng said, then turned to Zhao Shanhe: "How's your analysis of the 'Cheng Ying Mecha' design blueprints coming along? Are you able to produce it?"
"Our military's researchers have studied this design in detail. It looks as rough as a toy, but based on calculations and the deduction of the 'psychic' technology that the 'Qianxing people' have mentioned more than once, if they really have mastered the 'psychic' technology, there is a high possibility that they can build this mech."
Zhao Shanhe immediately replied.
"Psionic technology..."
The Duke of Rong, whose status in the Middle-earth Kingdom was second only to His Majesty the King, frowned. "Is it impossible to achieve without psionic technology...?"
"That's not entirely true. Some of the concepts in the mechs are still very helpful to our technological development. If we are given eight to ten years to study them properly, we may be able to replace the 'psychic' technology with other technologies. However... the performance may decline..."
Zhaoshan River Channel.
"A decline is inevitable, but at least we should try to produce it first. If our Middle-earth Kingdom could have such a powerful weapon of war, even if its performance was only half that of the weapon from the Starfall incident, it would be enough to make us one of the world's top military powers."
Zhao Tianfeng said cautiously.
"We understand."
Zhao Shanhe nodded in agreement.
As Zhao Tianfeng watched Zhao Shanhe leave, he couldn't help but think of the speculation that Han Guanglie had made.
That "Qianxing person" was hostile to the Eternal Life Realm forces behind the Star Radiance Federation, which is why he descended upon their world and destroyed the Star Spirit Platform.
After all, from the very beginning, the "Qianxing person" initiated their initial communication with them by claiming that their spaceship had crashed on Blue Star.
"Could it be... that 'Qianxing person' really has a way to come to our Blue Star!? Just like the Star Glory Federation can send people to the Realm of Immortality through special experiments... that 'Qianxing person' can do the same, and the 'Chengying Mech' that caused the starfall incident was produced by him?"
If that's really the case...
That Qianxing person should be hiding somewhere on Blue Star right now!?
So what was his purpose?
Could it really be just about repairing the spaceship and returning to the Realm of Immortality?
What was the point of him sending them the design blueprints for the Cheng Ying mecha?
Is he trying to get them to help him produce parts for the Chengying mecha so he can use them?
If he really wants us to help him process the parts, he can just say so.
Judging from the combat power he displayed when he controlled the Cheng Ying mech and carried the military forces of the Xingyao Federation to destroy the Xinglingtai, the Zhongtu Kingdom was simply no match for him.
Or perhaps, the Cheng Ying mech is powerful, but he himself is very weak and is worried that he will be controlled by others if he is exposed?
A variety of complicated thoughts kept surfacing in Zhao Tianfeng's mind, leaving him puzzled.
Xie Yusheng, who knew the whole truth, naturally had no intention of explaining anything to the Duke of Rong's confusion.
At this moment, under the guidance of "Supreme One," he is breaking through from the second to the third level of the Chaos Demon God's Eternal Dao Proving Method.
The reason he was able to break through so quickly wasn't because he ate beef faster, but because...
The unique layout of the villa where he lived.
This villa has been arranged into a formation using special methods Gu Jinlai.
Although formations cannot, like the spirit realm, encompass the ever-present spiritual energy generated between heaven and earth and refine it into Spiritual Qi, but...
Converting inspiration into Spiritual Qi on a small scale is not a problem.
The problem is that this Spiritual Qi cannot be preserved and must be absorbed as soon as possible, otherwise it will dissipate quickly.
However, thanks to this formation, and with Gu Jinlai personally "controlling" Xie Yusheng's body to absorb the energy, his efficiency in "Qi Refining Spirit Transformation" and further "Spirit Refining to return to emptiness" was still greatly improved.
Today, guided by the wisdom of the Gu Jinlai, it has begun to gather True Spirit.
Gu Jinlai, he has witnessed countless people condensing their True Spirit during this period. In addition, he possesses the memories of the "Aries Star Lord" and has taught countless Heavenly Lords. Guiding Xie Yusheng to condense his True Spirit and become a Heavenly Lord is a piece of cake for him.
In less than an hour...
Xie Yusheng had already clearly felt the changes within himself.
Originally, he simply felt that he had developed a connection with the external world, and every blade of grass, every tree, every mountain, and every stone seemed to give him a sense of closeness.
But at this moment when the True Spirit is condensed...
He could almost clearly sense their "life" existence.
Furthermore, one can communicate directly with them using one's own "True Spirit" and use the power of the True Spirit to prompt them to evolve and grow.
This magical feeling...
Xie Yusheng was so engrossed in it that he couldn't pull himself away for a long time.
"Alright, for the next period of time, you should get used to the various changes after condensing the True Spirit in the third level of the Chaos Demon God's Eternal Dao Proving Method. At the same time, learn to use the special ability of True Spirit possession skillfully. When conditions permit, you can let the True Spirit control this Cheng Ying mecha and step onto the stage. I have important things for you to do then."
This Gu Jinlai.
"I understand, Senior Taiyi, please give your instructions."
Xie Yusheng quickly replied.
After saying that, he seemed to have thought of something and asked, "Then... should I just use Senior Taiyi's name when I go about my business?"
"No need."
Gu Jinlai said, "I think the 'Qian Xingren' you met is a good gimmick."
"Qian Xingren?"
Xie Yusheng was slightly taken aback.
Immediately afterwards, it was as if a bolt of lightning flashed through his mind.
Recalling all the interactions he had with that "Qianxing person" over the years, and considering that even the design blueprints for the Cheng Ying mecha were first sent over by that "Qianxing person," a truth that was both unbelievable and incredibly close to reality seemed to be about to emerge!
For a moment, Xie Yusheng's eyes widened, and he felt his breathing become heavier.
"Senior... what... what exactly do you want me to do?"
