Stronger from Earth

Chapter 369 - 368: In Haste

Three months passed by in a flash. Wang Xuan continued to explore and study his Cultivation Technique while managing ten Life Planets, spreading his own beliefs.

With his Cultivation Level, having everyone on Dixuan Star worship him was no difficulty; it was just following in the footsteps.

In April of 2520 AD on Earth, the northern hemisphere was verdant, already springtime. When Wang Xuan crossed the Realm Gate to the main peak, he felt as if he had been transported to another world.

"To those who understand me, they call my mind troubled; to those who don’t, they wonder what my pursuits are!"

A singing voice came, and Wang Xuan saw it was Senior Brother Li Zuige, holding a wine gourd in his left hand and a roasted lamb leg in his right, coming up from the foot of the mountain.

"Senior Brother Li, may I ask what troubles your mind?" Wang Xuan asked.

Li Zuige, with three-inch-long beard, tall and thin, smiled and said, "I am troubled by the time slipping away, one should reflect, pursue, and do meaningful things in life; yet living to this day, I haven’t realized what meaningful things I’ve done."

Lately, he’s been pondering philosophical questions, which leaves his head spinning, as some things can’t withstand deep thought; perhaps living happily is to live in rare stupidity.

"Senior Brother, go and search for it then, I’m heading home to visit family, will definitely treat you to some drinks sometime." Wang Xuan thought for a moment and remembered he had casually bid on a bottle of good Exotic Realm wine at an auction, and sent it directly to Li Zuige.

Passing by each other, Wang Xuan saw Senior Brother Zhou Chengwu hurrying away without any leisure or relaxation.

"Senior Brother Zhou, why so hurried?" Wang Xuan asked.

"The three major Level-5 Worlds: Hell Realm, Evolution Realm, and Wizard Realm, are being explored vigorously. They are sources of crisis; the strong within must be completely suppressed.

They also hold opportunities; if not seized, by the time the Mother Star devours them all, the great chance will be missed." Zhou Chengwu said, flying up.

Wang Xuan shook his head. His Cultivation Level allows him to participate, but too many Alien Race experts want to kill him, he wouldn’t foolishly rush to die.

Similarly, others need a large amount of resources for their cultivation, while he just needs to gather Source Power values to rapidly enhance his Cultivation Level.

Walking the path of slaughter and war for a glimmer of hope is common for cultivators; he is actually an anomaly in this regard.

On the way, he ran into Yue Yiyi after school. She was bullying the little chubby Martial Champion Scholar, landing a punch that gave him a black eye.

It seems Yue Yiyi has started cultivating in Martial Arts as a foundation. Naturally spoiled, after cultivation, she’s become somewhat violent, effortlessly beating older Martial Champion Scholars who flee in panic.

It’s truly sinful.

Returning to Black and White Mountain, Chun Shui and Qiushui served him well with a bath, massage, and dinner, after which Wang Xuan learned of Chen Qingniu’s advancement to the Dharma Body Realm.

"He advanced quite quickly." Wang Xuan was surprised; two years ago, Chen Qingniu was merely at the Vajra Realm, yet has now crossed three major Realms into the Dharma Body Realm.

Another breakthrough into a Great Realm would make him a Pure Yang Cultivator. Chen Qingniu’s talent isn’t as high as his, but his cultivation speed is impressive, which shows how hard he has practiced daily.

However, Wang Xuan didn’t realize that a large part of this was due to him, having provided pills, Life Essence Immortal Peach, and pressure, all of which became resources for Chen Qingniu’s advancement.

Everyone is striving, making Wang Xuan feel pressed for time.

After all, this era is one of change unseen in a billion years; the brilliant ascension of the Mother Star, its precarious evolution, has generated too many enemies, and the future holds only two outcomes — dominance over the Ten Thousand Realms or extinction alongside humanity.

Being on the Mother Star, Wang Xuan couldn’t sense his clone, which only meant Dixuan Star wasn’t in the Solar System anymore, but rather in an Exotic Realm.

Having not seen it for nearly half a year, with his clone’s talent and vigor, it must have already reached the Jade Platform Realm, and in the Federation Army, its status should be steadily rising.

"In this era, as long as enough military merits are established, ranks can continuously rise, but of course, corresponding strength is needed to gain military merit." Wang Xuan knows how high the casualty rate in the Federation Army is, as they lead the charge whenever a great battle occurs.

He accumulated a batch of Source Power values, wanting to elevate his clone’s Cultivation Level, but since he couldn’t see it now, he had to put it on hold.

The Divine Infant Realm part of the Creation True Scripture is nearly perfected; given some more time he’ll be able to cultivate, allowing him to break through to the limit of the Divine Infant Realm.

Everything seems bright and hopeful.

To manage those eleven Life Planets and to comprehend and create Cultivation Techniques, Wang Xuan spent a lot of time, striving for the future.

Because of this, he directly missed the Spring Festival, leaving in winter and now, in spring, it’s time to return and take a look.

The spring in Yuzhang City is particularly vibrant and lively; this prairie land gathers the essence of Jiangyou Province, possesses the richest resources, and is naturally more prosperous.

"Master, welcome back."

Wang Xuan appeared on the street, and a nearby display showed the voice of Number One, this intelligent life takes the Changsheng Group’s database as its base, freely absorbing nutrients from the network on the Mother Star.

"How is the Changsheng Group?" Wang Xuan asked.

Number One answered, "With my assistance, Changsheng Group’s development is very smooth, its assets doubled in the past three months."

"Well done." Wang Xuan praised, to double Changsheng Group’s assets in three months is quite remarkable.

The total assets of Changsheng Group before were over ten trillion Star Yuan, already a dominator of an area, at the forefront in Yuzhang City.

The terrifying power of intelligent life was displayed at this moment.

"In recent months, the number of human body chips in the Federation reached ten million, prices remained high in the Early Period, only as numbers increased did the price reduce by half.

With the development of human body chips, humans equipped with them completely surpassed past abilities, with their strength and status rising steadily.

During this period, they have been called the New Humanity, considering themselves superior, causing significant social conflict.

Compared to the New Humanity, ordinary humans have no competitiveness, thus a vast number of people suggested to the Federation Government to popularize human body chips and make it a basic welfare provision." Number One stated.

The capacities of human body chips are definitely nothing compared to intelligent life, still, their value to humans is unimaginable.

Human body chips can precisely monitor the body and manipulate flesh, granting people robotic capabilities.

Such New Humanity is extremely powerful, their eyes scanning scenes, analyzed by an intelligent chip, producing immense information, knowing everything.

To remember at a glance, reading ten lines at once are trivial, proficient in music, chess, calligraphy, astronomy, geography — mastering vast knowledge without spending time, traditional learning has lost its meaning.

"Universal application? That’s impossible." Wang Xuan shook his head, as the Federation Government couldn’t afford it either; with limited resources, the enjoyment is reserved only for a small handful of societal elites.

As for these individuals wanting to lead others to wealth after becoming wealthy, that’s a mystery. Likely, in future, the Federation Government can only ensure ordinary welfare through taxation, but claiming rights to new technology demands hard work and money; waiting won’t help.

Walking barely a hundred meters on the street, Wang Xuan noticed many people looking at him, or rather staring at the things on him.

Whether it’s clothes or shoes, or the band tying his hair with a Jade Pendant, all these items are of unusual materials, and each is valued in billions.

Their eyes shimmered, eventually showing a reverent gaze, with the intelligent chip system being ninety-nine percent sure this is a Cultivator above the Body Refining, possibly an Earth Immortal.

After all, even intelligent chips couldn’t analyze much of Wang Xuan’s information, unknown is mysterious, an uncontrollable crisis.

If they were ordinary people, they could completely grasp the other’s bodily condition, Martial Arts, Martial Arts, character, hobbies, and all.

These individuals are what ordinary people call the New Humanity, no longer simple humans nor robots — an alien type. Through the database, their perspective of the world differs vastly from that of ordinary people.

"Looks like picking up scraps is non-existent in these days." Wang Xuan shook his head as now, users of human body chips are everywhere, truly an unimaginable era.

Due to these New Humanity, not just ordinary people, even cultivators have been greatly impacted.

Any user of a human body chip would return five hundred years ago, and in the 21st century would be able to stir up the winds and storms, becoming a century’s once-in-a-lifetime genius, all-rounder, or demon!
