The "Qianxingren" took the initiative to greet everyone, and in such a familiar way that it was beyond everyone's comprehension, that the already quiet atmosphere in the room became even quieter.

Fortunately, Xie Yusheng reacted quickly, stepping forward immediately and replying with a smile, "Hello, Qianxing person."

"I gave myself a name from the Blue Star, you can call me... Lu Ya."

A unique wave emanated from the Cheng Ying mecha, echoing in everyone's minds.

Everyone found this unusual method of communication fascinating.

Everyone was amazed by this mysterious power.

This was a miraculous event that was completely beyond their imagination.

"Thank you for recognizing our ancient Xia civilization on Blue Star. You can call me..."

"Xie Yusheng, I know you. At first, our communication was very pleasant."

The spiritual energy within the Cheng Ying mech surged once more. "It was through our interactions that I got through the most difficult and boring period."

Xie Yusheng blushed.

It's not about feeling ashamed.

Instead...

He found it hard to praise himself, being an honest man.

After all, it is his True Spirit that is currently controlling this Cheng Ying mech and communicating with it through spiritual resonance.

"It's my pleasure."

Xie Yusheng pondered for a moment and decided to skip the small talk as soon as possible.

Too much interaction can easily lead to problems. In front of countless elites from various countries, even with his identity as a "Qianxing person" as a cover, it's inevitable that someone will notice something over time.

He immediately got to the point. "Over the years, through my continuous learning about the ancient Xia civilization, I have become increasingly interested in it, especially in the related classics of its myths and legends, which have broadened my horizons. I have accepted your invitation this time because I have a request: I hope to obtain more related classics... Is this the correct idiom? I believe my understanding and description of the ancient Xia civilization's texts is correct?"

After Xie Yusheng controlled the Cheng Ying mecha to send out this message, he immediately agreed without hesitation, "Of course, we have already prepared a batch of gifts for you."

These are also part of the contingency plans formulated by the Nantianmen Project Team and the Zhenxian Research Institute.

As soon as he answered, Lan Yuntian quickly took out an electronic device that resembled a mobile phone.

Xie Yusheng took the instrument and said with a smile, "This contains more than 10,000 pieces of information, data and cultivation Cultivation Method related to the myths and legends of the ancient Xia civilization. I hope you will like it."

"Compared to these electronic products, I still prefer reading books, which gives me a sense of immersion as if I am traveling through the long history of the ancient Xia civilization."

The spiritual resonance of the Cheng Ying mech dissipated.

This electronic product does indeed contain thousands of pieces of information, data, and cultivation Cultivation Method.

However, there is also a backdoor program inside.

Of course, the backdoor program is essentially a reading aid software, which looks perfectly normal, except that it automatically connects to nearby wireless networks when it is running.

When it connects to the network, its location will naturally be revealed.

Xie Yusheng knew this, which is why Cheng Ying Mech made such a polite refusal.

"It is our honor that Mr. Lu Ya is interested in our ancient Xia civilization. We have also prepared some related books for you. However, books take up a lot of space, so we have only prepared one hundred copies. If you are willing to wait a while, we can prepare more books."

Xie Yusheng's self-directed and self-acted response.

"It's alright, you can go and prepare first, and let me know when you're ready, then I'll come and get it."

The Cheng Ying mech responded.

At this moment, Xie Yusheng asked the question that the True Immortal Research Institute and the Nantianmen Project Team were most concerned about, "We heard that your spaceship was severely damaged during the crash. If possible, we would like to help you repair it to fulfill our duty as hosts."

"Obviously, I've completed the repairs to my spaceship, otherwise I wouldn't have brought this... mech, built based on some of your designs... I originally intended to give this toy to you, my friend, but when I was producing it, I discovered that your technology here isn't even capable of simply piloting it..."

The spiritual fluctuations of the Cheng Ying mecha conveyed an emotion full of regret.

However, this sentiment made Zhao Tianfeng, Dong Xuanyuan, Han Guanglie and others realize that Xie Yusheng held an extraordinary place in the hearts of this Qianxing people.

Zhao Tianfeng raised his hand and touched a silver ring on his hand.

This is a signal to implement another contingency plan.

This contingency plan...

It was Xie Yusheng who, through the voice of the "Qianxingren," guided Zhao Tianfeng and others to carry out the contingency plan.

After all...

He was also involved in the contingency plan.

His mind was racing, but his face was filled with a sincere smile, "That's a bit of a pity. I wonder if you could give us some guidance on how to use our technology to complete the construction of this Cheng Ying mech? I know it will take up some of your time, but the game 'Nantianmen Chronicles'... has indeed been a labor of love..."

"I understand you, my friend, and our previous conversations were quite pleasant. I'm even somewhat interested in your game, just some of the technical aspects..."

"It's alright. We don't need to reach your level. Even if it's just something like a mold from your world, as long as it can move and fly, we'll be satisfied."

"Oh, it's just making a mold... that's easy."

Cheng Ying Mech readily agreed.

Is this a simplified version of the Cheng Ying mech?

He already had the relevant design.

Even...

He seized the opportunity, but also developed some selfish motives.

"If we're just making a mold that can move and fly, how about we make a big toy in addition to this Cheng Ying mecha?"

The spiritual energy within the Chengying mech dissipated.

Xie Yusheng immediately looked overjoyed. "A big toy? You mean?"

"Isn't the ultimate weapon in the Chronicles of Nantianmen a Star Destroyer? Shall we build it?"

"Star Destroyer..."

Xie Yusheng looked "shocked".

Zhao Tianfeng, Han Guanglie, Dong Xuanyuan, and the others immediately looked at their advisors.

"Great job! There's even an extra bonus! Say yes, say yes right now!"

What is a Planet Destroyer?

"The Chronicles of Nantianmen? Why didn't anyone tell me that the 'Qianxing person' liked this game so much? Looks like I'll have to play a few rounds myself to avoid making any mistakes in my decision-making."

The group quickly made connections in their minds.

The staff quickly informed the group of the information about the Star Destroyers.

When they learned that the Star Destroyer was actually a super mech that resembled a spaceship, and even possessed a star-destroying weapon capable of melting the earth's crust and piercing its core with a single shot, they couldn't help but gasp in shock.

This thing...

Can you build it?!

Build! Build! Build!

We absolutely must be able to build it!

Even if it's just a mold, to manufacture such a massive mold, how advanced must the materials, structural, and power technologies involved be?

For a moment, Zhao Tianfeng looked at Xie Yusheng with great anticipation.

As if sensing their eager gazes, Xie Yusheng immediately agreed, "No problem, as long as you can provide me with sufficient technical support, we will definitely build it!"

"You can't do it yourself. You'll probably need the help of the forces behind you. You should take a look at it first."

The Chengying mecha responded.

Mainly...

Xie Yusheng suddenly realized that if he were to build it himself, he probably wouldn't be able to create even a model that was only good for looking at.

We must discuss this with Senior Taiichi.

"Dear Mr. Lu Ya, we will fully cooperate with you to complete the construction of the 'Star Destroyer'."

Seeing this, Zhao Tianfeng couldn't help but make a promise.

But...

The "Qianxingren" in the Chengying mecha seemed to only glance at him before looking away. "Oh, then you guys discuss it and see if you want to build it or not. Once you've decided, I'll send you the design drawings."

After saying that, the massive mech stepped forward and picked up the box containing hundreds of books. "I'm leaving now, my friend. See you next time."

The last paragraph was clearly addressed to Xie Yusheng.

Xie Yusheng wanted to associate himself with the "Qianxingren" (Qianxing people), so he naturally had to emphasize his uniqueness.

"I look forward to our next meeting."

Xie Yusheng responded.

They looked like they dared not stop them.

Zhao Tianfeng, Dong Xuanyuan, Han Guanglie, and the others recalled how this Qianxing person had used this mecha to break through the Star Glory Federation's defenses at the Star Spirit Platform, and his almost supernatural stealth ability when he first appeared...

Ultimately, they dared not do anything rash and could only offer a welcoming expression for his return visit.

Soon, the Chengying mech took off.

This time, he entered stealth mode almost silently in front of everyone, and then...

It disappeared into the distance in a flash, so distorted that it was almost impossible to see clearly.

Throughout the process, Li Guanghui turned all the detection instruments to their maximum power, but still failed to detect any trace.

This kind of timeless power...

This completely extinguished all the inappropriate thoughts that the people at the True Immortal Research Institute should have.

Several minutes after the Cheng Ying mecha had completely disappeared, Zhao Tianfeng's gaze finally fell on Dong Xuanyuan and Han Guanglie: "Gentlemen, let's discuss this."

"Discuss..."

Dong Xuanyuan sighed, "I think there's nothing left to discuss. Judging from its combat power in the Xinglingtai battle, we are not even in the same era as them. It's like putting a fifth-generation fighter jet on an ancient battlefield and attacking it from the air, a dimensional reduction attack."

"Things aren't as bad as they seem. The technology we learned while helping him build those toy-like Shadow Mechs and Star Destroyers might take years or even decades to fully digest... With these material technologies, the technology of our three kingdoms will surely reach a new level."

Han Guanglie, on the other hand, understood things very clearly.

Zhao Tianfeng nodded in agreement. "In addition, he is not without desires. Like that True Immortal Suimu, he is also very interested in the cultivation Cultivation Method and mythological classics of our ancient Xia civilization. Since he has such requirements, there is naturally a possibility for cooperation between us."

Han Guanglie and Dong Xuanyuan echoed this sentiment.

"Everything is difficult at the beginning. We have already made a good start. If we keep it up, it is not impossible for us to surpass the Starry Federation in the future."

Zhao Tianfeng said.

Han Guanglie and Dong Xuanyuan both smiled.

Although they couldn't obtain the complete technology for the Shadow Mech and the Star Destroyer, they could still benefit immensely from learning some scraps of technology while helping them build their mechs.

"And then there's Xie Yusheng, the group leader from your Central Plains... That Qianxing person clearly treats him differently, even addressing him as a friend..."

Dong Xuanyuan glanced at Zhao Tianfeng: "Just this alone means the True Immortal Research Institute will have to find a way to manage its relationship with him."

Zhao Tianfeng naturally understood this.

At that moment, the Duke of Rong, a pillar of the Central Kingdom, stepped forward with a broad smile and began to exchange pleasantries, "Xiao Sheng, you've done a great job. Not only did you secure the project to build the Cheng Ying mech, but you've also laid the foundation for our future cooperation in constructing the Star Destroyer. You've completely exceeded expectations..."

"You flatter me."

Even though Xie Yusheng's mindset had changed somewhat, he still dared not be arrogant in the face of this important figure who stood at the very top of the Central Kingdom.

With one side eager to make friends and the other remaining humble, the atmosphere quickly became warm and harmonious.

"Star Destroyer?"

The news of what happened to Xie Yusheng was quickly relayed to Gu Jinlai.

At this moment, the Gu Jinlai were not actually at the Gate of Creation, but had arrived at the Path of Suspended Gold.

To be precise, it is the mountain gate of the Xuanjin Dao Wanxing Sword Sect.

Accompanying him and dealing with the Myriad Star Sword Sect were not only the two hundred Cheng Ying mechs led by Zhang Yukun, but also a dozen True Immortals and hundreds of Void Immortals led by Yun Fenglei, as well as many other forces led by the Longevity Pavilion.

Yes.

Since Luo Jiuxiao of the Xuan Yuan Sword Sect personally visited the Creation Gate, the entire Xuanxian Realm has undergone a tremendous change in its political climate.

Other forces, having previously been filled with fear of the rise of the Creation Sect, flocked to join its ranks.

Among these forces that sought allegiance was the Longevity Pavilion, which had originally wanted to cooperate with the Creation Sect but later realized the gap between the two.

Just as they willingly became a pill-refining hall of the Xuan Yuan Sword Sect back then, the Chang Sheng Pavilion's allegiance this time is also quite thorough.

Although the Longevity Pavilion was not moved to the territory of the Creation Gate, most of its experts were sent there to obey orders from Gu Jinlai, displaying a hardworking and obedient attitude.

"A star-destroying weapon, huh?"

Gu Jinlai, our current strength has barely reached the standard for destroying a planet.

But it can only destroy those small stars.

Even his method of destruction was from the inside out, rather than directly blasting it apart from space.

In this respect, the Star Destroyer is even more powerful than him.

Especially one-tenth the speed of light...

Although it's only one-tenth the speed of light outside the atmosphere, the energy that can be given to the mecha at this speed still far exceeds that of a celestial being.

In other words, this is merely a war weapon comparable to a Golden Immortal of the Great Dao.

"This kind of weapon of war is not very useful against evil gods, but if it is used to suppress the situation in the Xuanxian Realm, or to cause conflict with the Xuanhuang Immortal Dynasty... its deterrent power is still quite amazing."

At this moment, thoughts arose in people's minds Gu Jinlai.

Xie Yusheng asked for his help to try, so let's give it a shot.

There's no need to worry about the materials either.

As his understanding of nuclear forces deepened, he was able to describe the structure of this material in detail.

Using nuclear-powered materials to forge planet destroyers shouldn't be a problem.

But before that...

"Send some materials on the nuclear force structure over first, and have them obtain enough books about Blue Star's mythology and legends as soon as possible."

Gu Jinlai thought to himself, and soon used the Void Projection Technique to hand over some of the data to Xie Yusheng through "Shared Spirit" and made his own request.

After doing all this, dozens of figures descended from the sky and landed in front of Gu Jinlai.

"Supreme Elder."

"Sacred Jiang."

The group at the head were none other than Zhang Yukun, Tian Qingzi, and the Redwood Immortal Master.

Gu Jinlai nodded to them, then his gaze fell on the few people they had captured.

"A true immortal?"

What appeared before him was actually a group of true immortals.

Although the sect leader of the Myriad Star Sword Sect, True Immortal Riyi, was present, none of the Celestial Immortals, such as Taibai, Chixing, and Xuanjian, were there.

"When we arrived at the Myriad Stars Sword Sect, several Celestial Immortals from the sect had already fled."

Tian Qingzi said, "Moreover, in order to ensure that their early escape would not attract extra attention, they did not even inform the sect leader, True Immortal Riyi, of this news."

"They escaped?"

Having heard this Gu Jinlai, people both found it somewhat unexpected and yet it seemed perfectly reasonable.

With the fall of the Immortal Lord of Myriad Manifestations and the razing of the Mo family to the ground, even the Xuan Yuan Sword Sect bowed down to him. No matter how blindly confident the Tai Bai Immortals were, they would not believe that they still had room to fight against him.

It's not strange to run away under these circumstances.

Moreover, the Xuanxian Realm is vast, with hundreds of billions of living beings. With their cultivation at the Heavenly Immortal level, as long as they hide somewhere and conceal their identities, there is no possibility of finding them again.

Even on a small Blue Star with a population of tens of billions, and most of which are digitized and intelligent, it would be easy for a little superman to hide himself.

"Continue to track down these few who slipped through the net. Here... summon all cultivators of the Returning Void Realm and above from the Myriad Star Sword Sect for trial."

The Way of Peace Gu Jinlai.

"Sacred Jiang..."

Sunlight Immortal's face was deathly pale, as if he still wanted to plead for something, "My Myriad Stars Sword Sect is willing to devote all its members to the tutelage of Divine Immortal Jiang and become the sharpest sword in your hand..."

Before he could finish speaking, Gu Jinlai waved his hand to interrupt him, "No need."

He was telling the truth; the current Creation Sect does indeed have no shortage of true immortals and illusory immortals to serve it.

If he so desired, the Creation Sect could now assemble a far larger force of True Immortals and Virtual Immortals than even the Mohist school of the time.

"Let's put the Myriad Star Sword Sect to trial."

This Gu Jinlai.

"Yes."

Tian Qingzi respectfully agreed.

At this moment, a figure flew over from a distance; it was Ye Yan, the former Supreme Elder of the Creation Sect.

Upon seeing Gu Jinlai, Ye Yan bowed and said, "Elder, the Xuanxian ancestors of the Three Great Families, Ji, Bai and Chi, have come to pay their respects and have arrived outside the Wanxing Sword Sect."

"Oh."

This has not been a major surprise throughout Gu Jinlai.

Even the Xuan Yuan Sword Sect has bowed its head, let alone the Three Great Families whose power is not as great as the Xuan Yuan Sword Sect.

If they insist on resisting, they will ultimately suffer the same fate as the Mohists.

"Let them come over."

"Yes."

Ye Yan said.

From Gu Jinlai, it has landed in the sect square in front of the Wanxing Sword Sect.

This plaza is located on the mountainside of a high mountain. It is vast and can easily accommodate tens of thousands of people at the same time.

The ground is paved with expensive flooring, and there are various sculptures and buildings around it. In particular, in the very center, there stands a majestic giant sword that is hundreds of meters high, with a platform with a diameter of more than ten meters at the hilt.

One can imagine that when the Myriad Stars Sword Sect was at its peak, the sect leader or elders would sit on a platform, looking down at their disciples as they practiced swordsmanship and gave their opinions on the world.

But now...

The entire Wanxing Sword Sect was easily overrun with the arrival of Gu Jinlai. The disciples were either controlled or hidden away, caught in a state of panic and fear. Naturally, no one dared to walk around the square in front of the hall anymore.

Gu Jinlai for a moment, Ye Yan arrived with a group of three people.

They were none other than Chi Xuehe, the Mysterious Immortal of the Chi Family; Bai Shengyang, the Mysterious Immortal of the Bai Family; and Ji Longhua, the Mysterious Immortal of the Ji Family.

With Luo Jiuxiao's example as a precedent, the Three Great Families dared not send their patriarchs at the Immortal Lord level to deal with the matter perfunctorily. Without exception, they all sent their patriarchs, who were like pillars of the sea and pillars of the sea, to personally show their sincerity.

"Greetings, Sacred God Jiang."

Upon seeing Gu Jinlai, the three of them bowed in greeting.

"You are probably already aware of what I have done during this period. I have basically eliminated the major forces in the Northern Region, but in the process of elimination, quite a few people have fled to the territory under your jurisdiction..."

Looking at the three of them, Gu Jinlai spoke directly.

"We have already sent people to track down the whereabouts of these people who entered our territory. We will personally escort them to the presence of the Divine Emperor Jiang and await his judgment."

Bai Shengyang immediately made a solemn promise.

"Not enough."

Gu Jinlai calmly said, "Not only these people need to be judged, but I will also enter the Bountiful Hills, the Heavenly Fire Canyon, and the Dragonfall Mountains. These three territories will also be subject to scrutiny."

Chi Xuehe, Bai Shengyang, and Ji Longhua's expressions changed.

Before they could speak, Gu Jinlai, whose words were already beyond question, said again, "The Xuan Yuan Sword Sect has already accepted my upcoming inspection in the Golden Land with my men. Or, do you consider yourselves stronger than the Xuan Yuan Sword Sect?"

These words immediately shut the three of them up.

They had anticipated this scene when they arrived.

Only...

Jiang Yufeng's judgment on the various forces was too harsh.

He directly killed as many as 30% of the cultivators above the Void Immortal Realm in each sect.

A third of the population died!

This kind of terror...

It terrified everyone.

The three of them came in person hoping to gain some room for maneuver, but judging from Gu Jinlai appearance...

There was clearly no room for negotiation on the matter of purging the Xuanxian Realm.

For a moment, the three had no choice but to agree, "Yes."

"Is there anything else?"

This Gu Jinlai.

"To congratulate the Holy Lord Jiang on his triumphant rise in the Northern Region, we have prepared a special gift for the Holy Lord Jiang and the Creation Sect. Please accept it with a smile."

As Bai Shengyang spoke, he handed over an item first. "Saint Jiang walks the path of innate sainthood. A thousand years ago, an ancestor of my Bai family was training in the Xuanhuang Great World and encountered the remains of a Great Sun Golden Crow. I hope it can be of some help to Saint Jiang."

Ji Longhua also stepped forward and presented a treasured storage item. "It is said that the Holy Sage Jiang is interested in the cultivation method of the Mind and Spirit. Our Ji fortuitous opportunity has obtained a method of Spirit Refining by chance, called the Gate of the Mysterious Female. In terms of Spirit Refining alone, its mystery is even greater than the Nirvana Diagram. Please accept it, Holy Sage Jiang."

Chi Xuehe then took out a seed containing a vibrant life force. "It seems that Divine Jiang intends to gather all five elements of the Heavenly Dao. I hope that my Yi Wood Heavenly Dao can catch Divine Jiang's eye."

All three expressed their opinions sincerely.

Moreover, judging from the items they brought out, it's easy to tell that they put a lot of thought into preparing these gifts.

And the purpose of presenting this gift...

Gu Jinlai's gaze lingered on the three for a moment, until they became somewhat uneasy, before he said, "You have six months to allow your loved ones to atone for their sins and reform themselves. After six months, I will enter the Bountiful Hills, the Heavenly Fire Canyon, and the Meteor Dragon Mountains. If I find anyone still committing evil deeds by then, I will execute them without mercy."

The three of them breathed a slight sigh of relief upon hearing this, "Thank you, Divine Master Jiang."

"Step down."

They waved goodbye Gu Jinlai.

Immediately, the three overlord-level patriarchs, who were so high and mighty in the eyes of Ye Yan and the others that they didn't even have the right to look up to them, bowed to Gu Jinlai at the same time and took their leave.
