A Reunion in a Foreign Land

"Child, it's alright, you've been resurrected now." Seeing that Feng Yunruo seemed a little hesitant, Pu Ti reminded her. "Feng Yunruo, you've been resurrected. From now Years, you will continue to live as an ordinary human from Yuan Planet. The position of the second leader of Yuan Planet is far too heavy a burden for you!"

"I...died once..." Feng Yunruo stammered.

Suddenly, memories flooded back, and everything returned to my mind.

"The Star Tower's legacy of life and death? Senior Pu Ti? Failure?" Feng Yunruo's eyes lit up instantly, seemingly understanding her current situation. "So, the Nine Calamity Secret Manual also completely disappeared with my demise?"

Listening to Feng Yunruo's murmurs, Pu Ti calmly said, "In the Reverse Time and Space, I was merely protecting you and bringing you back from the past. Your treasures are here, and I won't elaborate further. As for the Nine Calamity Secret Manual, let it be! You rose to power because of it and therefore had to bear the responsibility of being the leader of the Yuan Planet People. Now that it's gone, you can be yourself!"

As if explaining to Lu Yan'an what the Nine Calamity Secret Manual was, Pu Ti deliberately said, "To compensate for the weakness of your Yuan Planet lineage 'Gene Level, our teacher specially devoted endless Heart Power to creating this Nine Calamity Secret Manual. This Nine Calamity Secret Manual can allow cultivators' physical genes to continuously leap and improve, reaching the Gene Level of some heaven-defying and rare races in the universe."

As he spoke, Pu Ti's face was filled with reverence, clearly indicating that even a powerhouse at the level of Universe Master could not fully comprehend the extraordinary nature of this secret manual.

"However, this secret manual is resisted by the Universe Operating Laws. Although it was created, once the teacher passes this secret technique on to someone in the Yuan Planet lineage, the Universe Operating Laws will automatically erase the contents of the secret technique immediately after the instruction... The teacher is powerful, Universe Operating Laws cannot erase the teacher's memories, but they can erase the memories of other cultivators."

"Later, the teacher left alone, and no one knows where he went. In the end, he brought back a special treasure called the 'Heaven Soul Crystal,' in which he recorded the secret technique," Pu Ti continued.

"This Heaven Soul Crystal possesses incredible power. As long as one is a human of the Yuan Planet lineage and can withstand the test of that illusion, one can obtain this secret technique from the Heaven Soul Crystal. However, the Universe Operating Laws are fair; there are no absolutes, and there is always a glimmer of hope. To inherit the Nine Calamity Secret Manual, one only needs the Heaven Soul Crystal. The Heaven Soul Crystal's inherent power can transmit the memories of this secret technique without being erased by the Universe Operating Laws... but this is only a one-time opportunity."

"This means that the Heaven Soul Crystal records the Nine Calamity Secret Manual, but its inherent power is only enough for one transmission and cannot be passed on in batches. As long as the cultivator is alive... then the Heaven Soul Crystal cannot be passed on to a second cultivator. Unless the first cultivator perishes!" The universe is vast, and there are many things that violate the Universe Operating Laws, even Pu Ti, the Universe Master, does not fully understand them.

"Therefore, including you, the Yuan Planet lineage originally had two and a half candidates."

"Only after the first candidate perishes and the Heaven Soul Crystal regains its power can a second candidate be born."

"Only if the second candidate falls can a third candidate be selected."

"Such a secret manual, even with a Heaven Soul Crystal as a vessel for its transmission, would absolutely not allow two candidates to live simultaneously."

As they were talking, Pu Ti suddenly pointed to Lu Yan'an behind him and added with a smile, "Look, this is the other half! However, he has now broken through to the level of Universe Venerable, so he has automatically given up his candidacy."

Feng Yunruo turned to look at Lu Yan'an, and at that moment, Lu Yan'an finally saw Feng Yunruo's appearance clearly. He was about 1.9 meters tall, wearing black trousers, a black jacket, and with waist-length hair... At first glance, he gave the impression of molten lava surging beneath the surface! But strangely, once you got closer to him, you would feel a sense of peace from the inside out. As for his age, you couldn't see a single wrinkle on his face, as if he were in his early twenties. However, his aura was clearly not something an ordinary young man could possess.

"Lu Yan'an of the Lu Clan of the Feng Kingdom greets Senior Brother!" Hearing Pu Ti's accusations against him, Lu Yan'an didn't care much and instead took the initiative to step forward and greet him.

"Are you a member of the Lu Clan?" After hearing Lu Yan'an's greeting, even the legendary Human Emperor of the Feng Kingdom couldn't contain his excitement and immediately stepped forward to ask.

One of life's greatest joys is meeting an old friend in a foreign land; two powerful individuals who emerged from the Yuan Planet met for the first time inside the Star Tower.

"How is Yuan Planet now?" Feng Yunruo asked anxiously. When he was away from home, his hometown was his root. No matter how long he had been away, he still missed his hometown the most.

"This?" Lu Yan'an stammered awkwardly, his words sounding somewhat unnatural. "Due to a great war three thousand years ago that affected the entire Solar System, Yuan Planet is now destroyed!" At this point, Lu Yan'an felt a sense of helplessness; to be precise, Yuan Planet was destroyed by his own actions!

"What?" Feng Yunruo's face immediately lost all color, and her energy seemed to have been instantly drained away. She collapsed to the ground like an old man on his deathbed.

Seeing this, Lu Yan'an quickly continued to explain, "However, I have reached an agreement with the highest-ranking Universe Master humanity, and they will intervene to Reverse Time and Space and resurrect our people!"

"Really?" At this moment, Feng Yunruo seemed to have grasped a lifeline, tightly holding Lu Yan'an's arm, her eyes filled with tears and hope as she looked at him.

"Of course! This situation arose because of the problem with the Giant Axe Dojo, so they naturally have to take responsibility for solving it!" Lu Yan'an explained. "However, if we were to Reverse Time and Space to resurrect them, we could only resurrect those above the Planetary Level. As for the apprentices below the Planetary Level, they simply couldn't withstand the Reverse Time and Space!"

"It's good that they can be resurrected! It's good that they can be resurrected! Even just one more person would be a good thing!" Feng Yunruo's expression was still heavy after hearing Lu Yan'an's words, but it was much better than before. "Our Yuan Planet human race rose from the wilderness. Even a small spark in times of crisis can eventually become a prairie fire! It's a blessing that we weren't wiped out after this ordeal."

A silence fell between them, and the atmosphere inside the Star Tower became somewhat somber. However, anyone hearing such terrifying news would undoubtedly be emotionally charged. On the field, both began their own mental exercises.

"My business is finished, so I'll be leaving now. If you want to leave, just go to the edge of the main hall, where an exit will automatically appear!" Pu Ti seemed unable to accept the rather somber atmosphere either; the space around it trembled, and it vanished into thin air.

Inside the main hall, only the two powerful figures who had left Yuan Planet remained, sighing to each other.

"What about the Intelligent Life form I left behind? Based on the resources and budget I left, it should have already cultivated to immortality. Could it be that even it couldn't stop that person?" After a long silence, Feng Yunruo continued to ask.

"It was no use. That person was a Feng Wang expert from the Giant Axe Dojo. With only the strength of Lord Shen- level military commander, it was like an ant trying to shake a tree—it crumbled at the first touch! At that time, I was just a Domain Lord. I might have a chance against an ordinary Immortal, but I was facing a Limit Feng Wang from the Giant Axe Dojo. I couldn't stop him at all. In the end, I perished together with that Feng Wang!"

"Sigh, Yuan Planet really is a place full of disasters! How could we be so unlucky!" Feng Yunruo said with a wry smile.

"When I left Yuan Planet, I specifically had the Intelligent Life 'Fuxi,' left to me by Teacher Pu Ti, create a clone as a safeguard. I also found a 'Evolution Heart' from the resources Teacher Pu Ti provided to help this Intelligent Life form cultivate. This Intelligent Life form possesses the entire database of my Intelligent Life 'Fuxi,' as well as some resources I left for future generations. But who could have imagined that the final opponent would be a King-level Immortal?"

"Alright, let's not talk about that now. Now that we've met, why don't we revive our people first and then discuss other matters?" Lu Yan'an suggested.

"Alright, although I don't know what agreement you reached with the powerful figures at the higher levels, the sooner the resurrection is done, the better!" Feng Yunruo agreed.

The two then walked together towards the edge of the Star Tower's main hall. Just as they entered, an exit automatically appeared on the wall. Without hesitation, they stepped through the exit...
