Ranked First, Immortal Qin Civilization!

Countless people widened their eyes, staring up at the sky.

Everyone was filled with boundless curiosity.

What civilization could surpass the Angel Civilization and the Liesun Civilization to claim the top spot?

Under the gaze of countless curious and bewildered onlookers, the number-one civilization was finally revealed to the world.

The Light Screen rippled, and text emerged.

[Ranking First: Immortal Qin Empire]

"Th-this... the Immortal Qin Empire?"

When the top-ranked civilization was announced, everyone was stunned.

"The Immortal Qin Empire?"

"What kind of civilization is that?"

"Have you heard of it?"

"No! Have you?"

Where was the Immortal Qin Empire?

What was the Immortal Qin Empire?

The Immortal Qin Empire... what gave it the right to be ranked first?

Yi Ren Civilization: I don't accept this! A civilization no one has ever heard of can be number one? What a joke!

Giant Wolf Civilization: Indeed, the technological levels of the Angel Civilization and the Liesun Civilization are known to all, and it's only natural they rank high. But what the hell is the Immortal Qin Empire?

Triangle Civilization: Th-this—ranking—hiss—has issues—

Distant star system, Old Heavenly Court.

"What the hell?"

Hua Ye's two eyebrows knitted into a figure eight as he stared at the ranking in the sky. "The Immortal Qin Empire? Never even heard of it."

He seemed utterly unconcerned with the ranking, still toying with the female companion beside him.

"Ruo Ning, have you heard of it?"

Ruo Ning thought for a moment, then finally shook her head. "I have never heard of it either."

Liesun Star System, Liesun Ring World.

Pan Zhen took a deep breath, his brow heavy with solemnity.

Solar System, Blue Star, Super Soldier Squad.

"That name... I feel like I've seen it somewhere before?" Ge Xiaolun tried his best to look thoughtful.

"Hey, I feel it too!"

Liu Chuang's eyes widened. "The Immortal Qin Empire—everyone says they've never seen it, but the more I hear it, the more familiar it sounds!"

Ge Xiaolun couldn't figure out the source of this strange familiarity, so he gave up. He looked around but couldn't see any other Super Soldier Squad warriors.

"Chuangzi, where are the rest of our squad?"

"They left. Went to see Sister Leina off."

"Seeing the big boss off?"

"Yeah, the Liesun Civilization just got a reward, so she went back to take a look at whatever that reward thing is."

Meru Heavenly Court.

Holy Keisha sat languidly on her throne, her long, shapely legs crossed, a playful look on her face as she gazed at the sky.

"The Immortal Qin Empire? How interesting... Yan, what do you think?"

Left-Wing Guardian Angel Yan answered without a moment's hesitation: "Your Majesty, if you command it, I will set out immediately to find this civilization."

Upon hearing this, Holy Keisha cleared her throat, and her cold, beautiful face suddenly softened a little.

"Yan..."

"Yes, Your Majesty?"

"You need to think more."

On the other side, Morgana aboard Demon One was also dumbfounded.

"Karl, what the hell is going on? Where did this so-called Immortal Qin Empire come from?"

"I've never heard of the Immortal Qin Empire civilization either."

Karl furrowed his brow. "If its civilian technology is truly stronger than that of the Angel Civilization and the Liesun Civilization, then it means its technological level has reached a certain degree."

"At the very least, it would possess a considerable level of space navigation technology."

The Angel Civilization was born from genetic technology; even newborn infants have physical constitutions far surpassing those of other civilizations' beings.

Not to mention super artificial celestial bodies like the Meru Heavenly Court.

As for the Liesun Civilization, they have miniaturized stellar energy and can even live on shattered planets.

There's no issue with these civilizations ranking at the top.

But...

Now a civilization no one has ever heard of has appeared!

"Is it possible that this civilization lacks space navigation technology but has highly developed civilian technology?"

Morgana speculated.

"Such a possibility is almost nonexistent."

Karl said calmly, "First of all, there are almost no undiscovered civilizations left in the Known Universe."

Holy Keisha's Angel's Sword has trodden across the entire universe.

The creation of former Principal Ji Lan, the Big Clock, is now in Karl's hands.

One could say the entire universe has been laid bare!

"I'm afraid there are only two possibilities."

Karl took a deep breath. "One: this civilization existed in an infinitely distant river of time before, and developed into an extremely advanced civilization, possessing technology that could even shield itself from Holy Keisha and the Big Clock."

"Two: this is a severely distorted civilization, with extremely strong technological prowess, yet unable to achieve space navigation."

As Morgana listened, a look of shock surfaced in her pupils.

Even Holy Keisha and the Big Clock couldn't spy on it?

Just how impressive is that?

Morgana knew Angel technology inside and out, yet she was still clumsily dodging Holy Keisha's pursuit.

She understood very well just how earth-shattering it was for a civilization's technological level to be able to ignore the Angel Civilization and the Big Clock!

"I hope... it's the second one."

Regardless of everyone's attitude toward the Immortal Qin Civilization ranked first on the list.

The Ranking List continued to operate.

Words appeared once more.

[Immortal Qin Empire: Possesses Ideal City Technology, Ring World Technology, Space Habitation Station Technology, Genetic Ascension, Psionic Ascension, Mechanical Ascension, Synthetic Ascension, and other major technologies]

[Citizen Living Standard: Extreme Utopia]

Seeing the dense text listed on the Ranking List.

All civilizations, all intelligent beings.

At this moment, fell completely silent!

The barrage was unusually silent for a moment.

After announcing the Angel Civilization and the Liesun Civilization, the Ranking List had similarly listed the reasons for these two civilizations being on the list.

But...

None of them were as shocking as this announcement!

What... are all these?

Not to mention having seen them, no civilization had even heard of these things!

Then came endless shock!

They didn't know what an 'Ideal City' was.

They had never heard of Mechanical Ascension, Psionic Ascension, Genetic Ascension, or Synthetic Ascension.

But there was one thing they recognized.

Ring World Technology!

"Ring World Technology... wasn't that one of the rewards for the Liesun Civilization just now?"

"Ah... right, right, right!"

"I remember now, didn't the Liesun Civilization just choose the Ring World?"

One remark stirred a thousand waves.

This single sentence jolted everyone awake!

The reward for the Liesun Civilization just now!

"Hiss... the reward given to the Liesun Civilization—the Immortal Qin Empire already had this?"

What kind of concept is that?

What does it mean!?

The Ranking List has issued two technological rewards so far.

They are:

The Angel Civilization's Sub-Biological Engine upgrade technology.

The Liesun Civilization's Ring World Technology.

These rewards were technologies that these civilizations had not yet achieved.

Now, the Ranking List tells you plainly and clearly.

The higher technology you received.

Is something they originally possessed!

In other words.

The technological level of the Immortal Qin Empire.

Far surpasses that of the Liesun Civilization and the Angel Civilization!
