Chapter 566: Chapter 562 The Revival of Spiritual Energy
The disappearance of this spirit represented that the last traces of Master Wushi in this world had also been erased.
A legendary life of a top-tier powerhouse from a hundred years ago thus came to a close.
"Not to spiritualize?!"
Gu Jinlai pondered this message full of cautionary meaning.
This message didn’t contain any traps; it was simply the information Master Wushi left for him before he completely "vanished."
Its nature was the same as its literal meaning.
Do not spiritualize.
Moreover, judging by the remaining emotions within these spiritual fluctuations, it seemed that Master Wushi had "seen" something profoundly horrifying at the moment he struck at the creator.
Gu Jinlai could clearly feel this horror through the spiritual fluctuations he had left behind.
"Spiritualization..."
Gu Jinlai gazed into the depths of the Spirit Realm.
Even though he possessed the memories of the Aries Star Lord, and the Aries Star Lord had wandered the True Spirit Realm more than once, he still couldn’t figure out what Master Wushi had discovered there.
The only thing he could confirm was that this danger must be related to the moment when one incarnated as a creature of the Spirit Realm while attempting to become a creator.
"The memories of the Aries Star Lord do not contain the process of how he became the creator... Furthermore, after the Aries Star Lord’s Spirit Realm Body lost its original form, it seemed to be pulled back to the Spirit Realm by a mysterious force... So, is there a possibility... that all creators are not truly formed through cultivation, but are instead spurred into existence by some unknown beings? Like randomly selected lucky ones..."
After this thought emerged, Gu Jinlai also felt a shiver run down his spine.
The strength of the creator he witnessed was formidable.
Especially the creator that descended with the body from the Spirit Realm, whether they were True Immortals or Demon Gods, it was a complete massacre.
If even such terrifying entities were brought to life by some unknown beings...
Then the power of those unknown beings was simply unimaginable.
"Revere life, revere the Spirit Realm."
Gu Jinlai took a deep look into the depths of the Spirit Realm.
In his field of vision, he could still see a bizarre scenery woven by countless spirits.
He then collected his Divine Sense and sent out a strand of spirit, projecting it along the Spirit Light of Gu Junxiu.
The light flourished, and soon, his spirit had appeared on Gu Junxiu.
By the time his projection reached here, Gu Junxiu had already sensed it.
Since he was aware of Gu Jinlai’s return, he did not rush to Lingxiao City to greet him like Gu Chifeng and the others due to the significance of the work at the observatory; now feeling Gu Jinlai’s personal arrival, his expression became incredibly excited.
"Patriarch... You... have finally returned!"
Having said that, he respectfully performed a salute: "Congratulations to the Patriarch on your return, your existence will forever be a beacon to our Gu Sect, guiding us in the direction ahead."
"Heh, haven’t seen you in over a year, and you’ve gotten better at speaking," Gu Jinlai chuckled.
"Patriarch, every word I say comes from the bottom of my heart," Gu Junxiu sincerely said.
He was truly grateful and glad for the existence of the Patriarch in the Gu family.
It was thanks to him that the Gu family had leapt from being a top force entrenched in a city to a superpower that dominated half of Qiantian.
And the Gu Family Disciples were each in high positions.
The core group, as Demon God Warriors, had accumulated a large amount of Demon King Essence Blood by defeating the armies of the Three Thousand Marshes and had all reached the status of War Gods.
War Gods!
Those were beings whose bodies could compare to Demon King Level creatures!
This was something many from the Gu Family couldn’t even have imagined in the past.
"Has there been any news from Blue Star during this time?" Gu Jinlai asked. 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘱𝘶𝑏.𝑐𝘰𝑚
"Yes, quite a lot, in fact. They seem eager to engage in further cooperation with us," Gu Junxiu reported, pausing before adding, "Also, they have sent over a series of documents we previously needed, which I’ve printed out and arranged here."
As he spoke, he opened a drawer.
Inside, it was filled with pages inscribed with "conversation."
Gu Jinlai enhanced the spirit of this projection slightly, allowing it to possess the ability to "interfere" with the material world, then had Gu Junxiu pick up the pages, flipping through them one by one.
But in just a moment, he sensed something sharp.
"Strange, the things I sent over weren’t bad and should have effectively corroborated my identity, why does it seem like their words are starting to doubt me?"
A moment later, he thought of Chao Jiuyin, he thought of Xia Zhongzheng.
The Blue Star people who arrived in this world by chance were not few, and due to survivor bias, those who managed to arrive safely were generally considered "gifted."
If he could send messages back to Blue Star with this large satellite, others might have made contact with some country on Blue Star after securing their position here.
Thinking back to the scene he "saw" when he projected to Blue Star using Xie Yusheng’s spiritual light as a Dao Mark...
"The game of this ’alien’ cannot continue," Gu Jinlai felt somewhat regretful.
However, as of today, with the help of Chao Jiuyin and a group of "professionals" from Blue Star, bringing industrial civilization to Qiantian wasn’t challenging.
Some difficulties could be directly bridged through "Co-spirit."
Whether he could get technological support from the other side of Blue Star was no longer very important.
"Although technology isn’t that important anymore, but..."
Gu Jinlai recalled the scene during his last projection to Blue Star using Xie Yusheng as a Dao Mark.
Compared to that time, he had once again elevated his status within the Heavenly Master Lineage.
"After all, the Void Projection Technique is a gold-tier skill; I should find a chance to upgrade it to Perfection and see what kind of changes it will produce."
Gu Jinlai quietly raised the priority level of the Void Projection Technique in his mind.
As for the Qingguang issue...
As soon as the Blue Sky arrives, he would formally promote Qiantian’s United Plan.
"Take these documents to Lingxiao Palace."
Gu Jinlai instructed Gu Junxiu.
"Yes."
Gu Junxiu nodded respectfully.
After selecting the useful weapon data, Gu Jinlai retracted the projection.
Since Gu Junxiu was over a thousand miles away from him, it hardly consumed any True Spirit Power.
He couldn’t help but once again use the Void Projection Technique to search for Xie Yusheng’s Spirit Light.
Those who know me leave traces, those who see me leave karma.
Due to the previous experience, the connection and entanglement between his Spirit Light and Xie Yusheng’s had significantly strengthened. This time, he quickly sensed the location of Xie Yusheng’s Spirit Light.
"Blue Star is far more distant compared to Lingxiao City,"
said Gu Jinlai.
But he still planned to do it.
The reason was simply that he wanted to take a look at Blue Star.
And to determine what the situation was with that so-called "External Civilization Communication Command Center" opposite Blue Star.
"Buzz, buzz!"
Spirit Light scattered in all directions.
Gu Jinlai clearly felt the surrounding Spirit Light flying at an extremely fast speed.
It was like a spaceship entering light-speed flight, where the original constant stars turned into dots of light, then into particles of light, and eventually filled his vision with a dazzling spiritual radiance. When all the spiritual light dimmed, the "human" perspective reappeared before Gu Jinlai’s eyes.
"Blue Star."
Gu Jinlai examined his surroundings.
The modern architectural layout filled with modern style told him that he had now arrived in an office with a modern aesthetic... probably?
Through the eyes of Xie Yusheng, Gu Jinlai looked around. Although the room looked like an office, there seemed to be... too many models?
Gu Jinlai even saw models of the Cheng Ying Mecha, Mystic Bird Fighting Machine, and Qingluan Mother Ship.
Besides, the room was somewhat messy, filled with a large number of books, but they all seemed to have highbrow titles.
For instance, The Feasibility of Light-Speed Engines, The Direction of Future Energy Weapons, United Theory, and The Ultimate Application of Controlled Nuclear Fusion Technology...
Every book seemed to be quite high-end.
But after a careful observation...
With his past experience as a "faux scientist," Gu Jinlai quickly noticed something.
"This person in charge seems a bit..."
While Gu Jinlai, like a ghost, was secretly assessing the surroundings, Xie Yusheng himself was on the phone: "I know, I know, I have a very important topic here... After I finish this topic, I’ll take her out... "
While talking, he had already sat down at his desk.
As he opened a document, inside...
There it was, a piece of information related to the repulsion shield.
"She can pull strings to get me into the True Immortal Research Institute? Don’t joke, what kind of place is the True Immortal Research Institute? The Qiao family isn’t even considered nobles... Eh!? Qiao Family’s eldest daughter Qiao Ningyun has established her Foundation? One of the most outstanding among the first batch of cultivators? This... I actually don’t want to go to the True Immortal Research Institute at all; I think the South Heavenly Gate project team is great. The people inside are professional, have access to supercomputers, and possess unfettered creativity; I super like it here..."
Xie Yusheng was talking on the phone while quickly flipping through the folder on repulsion shields, seemingly looking for some information.
Meanwhile, Gu Jinlai quickly read through the information as he flipped.
The result was...
There was no result.
He was certain.
This Xie Yusheng was just a "faux scientist."
However...
When Gu Jinlai thought about it carefully, he was subtly touched.
Although Xie Yusheng’s information on the repulsion shield was exaggerated and many aspects were not feasible, the performance was definitely top-notch.
Gu Jinlai estimated that if the repulsion shield were truly made, even attacks from Saints would greatly reduce the damage they could do to the Cheng Ying Mecha.
As for whether it could be realized or not...
The Heavenly Master lineage has always turned the impossible into possible.
"I really don’t feel anything for Qiao Siyu... Now that I am at least a Level 7 civil servant, don’t I have any autonomy?"
On the other end, Xie Yusheng was still on the phone, his voice carrying a hint of anger.
Through Xie Yusheng’s hearing, Gu Jinlai could also tell that the Xie Family wanted him to marry a girl named Qiao Siyu.
It was said she had been waiting for him for five years.
"Five years, a whole five years,"
Gu Jinlai listened and couldn’t help but be distracted.
At this moment, Xie Yusheng quickly turned a page of information, and Gu Jinlai didn’t even have time to read it, let alone to later use Qingguang to "recall" these "glanced-through" documents.
He couldn’t help but say, "Wait, flip slower."
Xie Yusheng, who was on the phone, was slightly startled and couldn’t help but say, "Who’s there? Who is speaking?"
Considering that he eventually had to fool Xie Yusheng into following his instructions to meet his family...
He organized his thoughts and spoke in a voice laced with antiquity and vicissitude in Xie Yusheng’s mind.
"The world has changed, spiritual energy is about to revive, and the ancient immortals and gods who have been slumbering will slowly awaken... and I, Emperor Taiyi, am one of the most powerful among the celestial gods. Xie Yusheng, you are fortunate, as a chosen child, you may become my heir, writing your own legend in this grand era."
