Nuclear-powered Sword Immortal-Chapter 625 - 617: The Identity of the Qian Star People

South Heavenly Gate Project Team.

At this moment, the entire project team was bustling with extreme speed, as the heads of various departments moved swiftly back and forth.

Countless calls were made to the higher-level departments.

And since the core personnel had gone to the True Immortal Research Institute, Xie Yusheng, who was already considered a high-ranking member, was the first to receive the news, rushing from his mechanical factory in Nankai City to the project team.

Upon arriving at the project team, he immediately asked, "Has that ’Qian Star person’ still not communicated with us?"

"No, the communication channel is currently occupied; the ’Qian Star person’ has only sent a large amount of data. Thanks to the improvement in the information algorithm, the transfer efficiency is now very fast, and the transmission is expected to be completed in three hours," a staff member responded.

Immediately after, his expression lit up with excitement, "Three years! A whole three years! The ’Qian Star person’ has finally sent a message again, which will undoubtedly greatly enhance our project team’s capabilities."

Xie Yusheng didn’t speak, but just stared at the data transfer progress.

Three hours passed quickly.

In the meantime, many more important figures hurried over upon hearing the news.

However, since the True Immortal Research Institute’s headquarters was located in the Da Jin Kingdom, far from the South Heavenly Gate Project Team, the institute’s higher-ups couldn’t arrive in time to take over project affairs. Therefore, as a high-ranking member, Xie Yusheng still had sufficient authority.

He opened the data sent by the "Qian Star person" as soon as possible, and a series of images unfolded before him.

Examining those design diagrams, Xie Yusheng was slightly startled.

"Is this... Cheng Ying Mecha!?"

The data transmitted was indeed the Cheng Ying Mecha.

"Zzzt!"

At this time, another message came through.

As the staff completed the translation, a message formed swiftly, "My ship is finally fixed. I went back once, which caused a slight delay. Remembering that you wanted me to reciprocate for the resources you gave, I asked my nephew to help with the repairs as his sixth-grade handcraft homework, haha, I hope you can understand it."

Upon reading this message, everyone was slightly taken aback.

"This ’Qian Star person’ returned to Qian Star?" Xie Yusheng said and quickly pulled out a response plan, flipping through it before saying, "Based on the content of this ’Qian Star person’s’ communication, I plan to interact with the ’Qian Star person’ following contingency plan number 46."

After swiftly reporting his move, he soon received approval from the higher-level departments.

After all, with the "Qian Star person" possibly cutting off communication at any moment, they had to react immediately, or who knows how long they’d have to wait for the next contact with the "Qian Star person."

"Congratulations, my friend, on finally repairing your ship, and also on safely returning to your hometown. I wish we could welcome you here on Blue Star for a visit if not for the vast distance between us. When you find the time, we’ll build the best spaceport to welcome your arrival," he quickly sent the message back.

The reply came swiftly this time.

"Thank you for the invitation, and once I’m done with my busy schedule, I’ll visit Blue Star again. Thanks for all your help during this period, especially your ideas, which have been greatly inspiring. I hope we can share more of your ingenious thoughts when we meet."

Reading this reply, Xie Yusheng quickly realized something.

"Ingenious thoughts?"

His ingenious thoughts...

Could it be the design drafts from the Southern Heavenly Gate Chronicles?

That works?

At this moment, a series of urgent footsteps came from outside.

Then, Lan Yuntian, the former head of the South Heavenly Gate Project Team, as well as core members Bai Xiangyang, Zhao Shanhe, including Zhao Qilin, all hurried over.

Clearly through other channels, they were always updated about the communication room. As soon as they arrived at the scene, they quickly got into work mode.

However...

Upon seeing the "Qian Star person’s" communication, Lan Yuntian, Zhao Shanhe, and others also seemed to think of something, giving Xie Yusheng a peculiar look.

Following that, Zhao Shanhe subtly shook his head at Zhao Qilin.

Zhao Qilin, who had intended to replace Xie Yusheng in communicating with the "Qian Star person," silently stepped back.

Lan Yuntian then said promptly, "In the form of a gift exchange, present our prepared Foundation Establishment Method to the ’Qian Star person’ for their perusal, and tell him that practicing it can strengthen and invigorate the body."

Xie Yusheng knew that they were testing whether the Qian Star person and Immortal Sui Mu were from the same world.

Accordingly, he sent the Foundation Establishment Technique that had been prepared beforehand.

After the message was sent, the "Qian Star person" seemed to quickly respond, "Where did you get this kind of exercise?"

And seeing this reply, Zhao Shanhe, Lan Yuntian, Bai Xiangyang, and the others were simultaneously invigorated.

"He knows!"

"It looks like this Qian Star person and the Immortal Sui Mu are very likely from the same world—perhaps representing two different developmental paths?"

"This is a great breakthrough!"

Xie Yusheng looked at these senior members and asked, "What should our next answer be..."

Before he could finish speaking, the "Qian Star person" quickly sent another message.

"A civilization that possesses such a cultivation technique is extremely powerful—so powerful that they could even destroy your stars. Moreover, they are highly aggressive. If you’re not careful, you could trigger a war leading to the destruction of your civilization!"

The message seemed to be filled with a warning.

But Lan Yuntian, Zhao Shanhe, Bai Xiangyang, and others all began to laugh simultaneously, "He’s getting anxious, he’s getting anxious."

"I’m now almost certain that they belong to the same world but are from different factions, perhaps even hostile ones. If it were two completely different stars, two unrelated civilizations, how could he be so knowledgeable about the civilization behind Immortal Sui Mu?"

"Just watch, I reckon his next move will be to try and persuade us to cut off all contact with that civilization."

They spoke lightly amongst themselves.

As expected, before Xie Yusheng could reply, that "Qian Star person" had already sent a third message.

This frequency...

How much faster was it than waiting for who knows how long after the earlier exchange? More than just a tad.

"Do not believe any word of that civilization, nor have any further communication with them. Otherwise, given the might of that civilization, what awaits you can only be destruction."

Seeing this message, everyone’s faces broke into smiles at the same time.

Their expressions said it all - just as I expected.

"If we confirm that this ’Qian Star person’ belongs to a different faction within that world, can we not play both sides to secure the greatest benefit for ourselves?"

"With a competitor in play, we finally have some initiative. Later on, we might even find an opportunity to leak this ’Qian Star person’s’ message to Immortal Sui Mu."

They quickly exchanged ideas.

Xie Yusheng watched their conversation with a hint of surprise: "Leaders, what if what this ’Qian Star person’ is saying is true? According to him, that civilization has the power to destroy stars? We’re talking about the destruction of stars! Even if all of our nuclear bombs on Blue Star were detonated, it wouldn’t harm Blue Star in the slightest, but that’s nothing compared to the power to destroy stars."

"Destroy stars? That’s just scaremongering with words."

Zhao Shanhe shook his head.

"You don’t need to worry about that."

Lan Yuntian glanced at Xie Yusheng, considering that the "Qian Star person" was fond of Xie Yusheng’s creative ideas, so it would not be good to replace him, lest the "Qian Star person" notice something amiss.

But if he couldn’t replace him...

It was time to tell him some confidential information.

Right then, he said directly, "That civilization... or rather, the civilization of Longevity World is not as powerful as we imagined. I’ve told you before, in exploring Longevity World, the Star Shining Federation has gone ahead of us. They’ve already sent people to enter Longevity World and established a kingdom there, governing over a hundred million citizens and millions of square kilometers of territory. And, having paid a great price, we have also learned of the true power of the Longevity World civilization from them."

As he spoke, his voice paused a beat, "Some individuals may be quite powerful, but everything is still within our control."

"This..."

Xie Yusheng didn’t know how to respond for a moment.

"That ’Qian Star person’ sent us this Design Diagram probably in an attempt to gain our trust."

At this time, Bai Xiangyang examined the Cheng Ying Mecha related materials, "However, it seems there’s something off with these materials, as if some parts are missing..."

"Take a good look at it. In any case, we’ll reap the benefits, and as for helping him with whatever he wants, heh... he’ll have to offer a much greater advantage."

Lan Yuntian smiled lightly.

After years of research, the secrets of Longevity World were already beginning to unravel before them.

At least...

They were no longer as utterly ignorant as they had once been.

...

"Flame Heavenly Dao."

Gu Jinlai felt the power of Heavenly Dao within the Void Space.

Under the augmentation of the Power of Heavenly Dao, even the might of the Eternal Furnace had improved.

Originally, he released the Eternal Furnace’s energy through nuclear fusion by means of high temperature and intense light to annihilate everything.

But now, he could compress the high temperature and intense light, focusing the power of nuclear fusion more tightly and purely, thus causing more powerful destructive effects. freeweɓnovel.cøm

"Constructing a Grotto Heaven in Longevity World requires a Cave Heaven Divine Crystal as the core, then building the Grotto Heaven with Cave Heaven Stones, followed by filling it with Five Elements materials to evolve the environment. The construction of Grotto Heavens in the Profound Immortal Realm is somewhat similar, just with the additional prerequisite of ’Spirit Veins.’ However, the Grotto Heaven within me, because I originally intended to simulate a miniature Spirit Realm, lacked the infusion of Five Elements materials..."

Gu Jinlai pondered, planning to take the time to further perfect the Grotto Heaven within him.

The existence of both Spirit Realm and Grotto Heaven was not in conflict.

Just like the material world and the True Spirit Realm coexist.

Both existing together would only make the world more complete, with a full cycle.

Of course, to achieve a true cycle of endless life involves the application of rules at the level of the Great Dao.

For them who are barely touching the level of "Heavenly Dao," it’s apparent that they still lack maturity.

At this moment, he seemed to perceive something, as if...

Someone was calling him?

Gu Jinlai gathered his Divine Sense, focusing on his True Spirit. In just a moment, he realized that the source of the call was the distant Gu Junxiu at Qiantian Qiushan Mountain?

It seemed as though something had happened.

With that thought, Gu Jinlai activated the Void Projection Technique. His spirit moved with his spiritual perception, crossing the Void in an instant, arriving to where Gu Junxiu was in the Longevity World.

The moment he arrived, Gu Junxiu sensed his presence and quickly called out, "Patriarch?"

"What calls for my presence?"

"Patriarch, I... I think I’ve made a mess of things..."
