Li Yao had woken up!
The news swept across the entire Flying Star Sector like a tornado. The entire world was ignited. Everybody was overjoyed and excited!
Leaving aside the fact that he had saved the Flying Star Sector at the most perilous moment on his own, the fact that he had slain Xiao Xuance, who was known as the best expert of the Flying Star Sector, was enough to make Li Yao a famous and remarkable person!
Right now, the dark clouds of war were still lingering, and the Imperium of True Human Beings could come back at any moment. The awakening of a top-tier expert was a great boost for the morale of the Flying Star Sector. Everything was going well.
The financial market was the first to react. For a moment, all the stocks were soaring.
The media was the second to realize what was going on. The First Affiliated Hospital of Flying Star University was soon surrounded by hundreds of reporters.
"The hero who saved the Flying Star Sector has finally woken up!"
"The Glorious Sunlight Group under his name has become a super force on par with the six sects of Heavenly Saints City and the Star Fighters' Alliance!"
"It is estimated that the Glorious Sunlight Group will become the most important bridge in the communication between the Heaven's Origin Sector and the Flying Star Sector. Its capability will further expand!"
"Li Yao, who owns the controlling shares of the group, may not be the strongest Cultivator of the Flying Star Sector, but he is definitely the richest!"
For the sake of consolation and morale, Li Yao accepted an exclusive interview from two important media outlets despite the lack of time. Then, he left for Spider Den on a crystal warship.
One day later, in the sky of Capital Nest on Spider Den …
The cabin door of a crystal warship was opened slowly. Three silver shuttles were released, which flew to the depths of Capital Nest in a triangle formation.
Li Yao looked down at the newborn Spider Den with mixed feelings.
After the abandoned resource planet was embraced by the Cultivators and the ordinary people, it was full of vitality again.
On the horizon in the distance, there were countless milky-white pillars that pierced through the clouds, forming a milky-white umbrella in the sky. The tassels at the edge of the umbrellas were emitting dense mist.
They were also like enormous mushrooms that were spurting spores in all directions.
They were enormous stabilizing rune arrays for the atmosphere.
Through the rune arrays, a stable artificial atmosphere would be established. Then, he would slowly modify the environment of the planet. Spider Den would be revitalized, and it would be able to accommodate at least a few billion people.
On the ground, the air had yet to be cleaned and was still filled with miasma. Countless people were wearing the Engineering Crystal Suit. They were sweating profusely as they modified the planet bit by bit.
Wu Mayan told Li Yao that, after Spider Den was controlled, the temporary committee had decided to compensate half of the resources on Spider Den for the victims who had been savaged by the space pirates and the Immortal Cultivators over the years.
As long as there was evidence, they would be able to claim the mining rights of part of the resources on Spider Den.
As a result, the construction of Spider Den became the construction of his home. All the major forces were involved in the transformation of Spider Den. Many people even moved their entire families to Spider Den, treating it as the starting point of a new life.
"Right now, Spider Den and Iron Plateau are both being modified on a large scale. Although the two planets are congenitally deficient and cannot be compared to the home planet of the Heaven's Origin Sector, they are much better than the narrow starships and the highly unstable world fragments.
Wu Mayan said confidently, "Two habitable planets are equivalent to two giant planets. It will be equivalent to having two enormous war bases. In less than a hundred years, the population of the Flying Star Sector will certainly multiply. Once the population increases, the population will be multiplied. The population of the Cultivators will increase, too. Our war potential will be greatly improved, too!
"Hehe. If the Imperium of True Human Beings is bold enough to come, they will certainly pay a heavy price!"
Li Yao smiled. It had been five years since they last met. Wu Mayan was indeed a young man. He had indeed grown a lot!
The shuttle accelerated and pierced into the depths of Capital Nest.
Three hours later, inside the Star Prier's House in the underground fortress …
This ancient observatory from ten thousand years ago, after a few months of urgent repairs, shone with a radiance as if it had been reborn from the ashes.
Flying Star University and Heavenly Saints Institute had both established research centers in the place. The best astronomers and astrologers of the Flying Star Sector had all gathered in the place.
Professor Mo Xuan and the other four star spirits considered the Star Prier's House their new base, too.
The reason was simple. The hundreds of crystal processors passed on from the Star Ocean Imperium were invaluable delicacies for the five star spirits who lived on computational ability.
How could they be willing to leave before they cracked all the crystal processors?
"Li Yao!"
Seeing that Li Yao showed up, Professor Mo Xuan manipulated the artificial body and gave him a hug that was as hard as iron!
"Li Yao!"
Luoxingzi, Si Koulie, and the rest of them were excited, too.
Although they were from different Sectors, they shared the same name. They had lived and died together in the battle of Heavenly Saints City, and they would fight side by side in the battles to come!
Other than Luoxingzi, Si Koulie, Mo Xuan, and the leadership of the six sects of Heavenly Saints City, Li Yao was overjoyed by an unexpected person.
"Chief Xiong!"
Xiong Wuji, the best warrior of the six tribes of Iron Plateau, was there to greet him, too.
"Good boy. You're finally awake!"
Xiong Wuji punched Li Yao with a smile. "Ever since you passed the test of the Truth Cabinet, I've been wondering how you did it. I didn't expect that the answer would be like this. Of course, you are not a space resident. You are a native of the Heaven's Origin Sector. Hahahaha! "
Li Yao blushed, somewhat embarrassed.
Speaking of which, he had kept it a secret. But after so many years, and he was faced with the great enemy that was the Imperium of True Human Beings, a minor misunderstanding was not worth mentioning at all.
"It seems that you have indeed made an important discovery!"
Li Yao was burning with anxiety. After some small talk, he spoke solemnly.
Although Xiong Wuji had been heavily wounded in the battle against Yan Xibei and hadn't recovered much of his capability in the past five years, he was still a respected figure in the six tribes of Iron Plateau and the soul of Iron Plateau.
Since he had shown up here, it was obvious that they were going to discuss something earth-shattering.
Li Yao thought of something and asked excitedly, "Have you located the coordinates of the Tian Yuan Realm precisely? Can I go to the Tian Yuan Realm now?"
The moment he said that, the atmosphere turned weird. Everybody looked at each other in bewilderment.
Professor Mo Xuan patted his shoulder and said, "Li Yao, don't be hasty. We have indeed located the coordinates of the Tian Yuan Realm, but it is still a bit complicated."
"Complicated?"
Li Yao was dazed for a moment. He vaguely felt that Professor Mo Xuan was not overjoyed but rather worried.
Professor Mo Xuan coughed and said, "It's a long story. Let's take our time to explain it. Let me introduce our findings in the past half year to you first. "
Professor Mo Xuan waved his hands. The lights in the room dimmed, and the arc-shaped dome was glittering again, filled with dense stars.
"First. This is the assessment of the capability of the Imperium of True Human Beings based on the scraps of information left by the star child and the observation of the prosperous areas of the former Star Ocean Imperium through the Star Prier's House.
"The Imperium of True Human Beings does exist, and its comprehensive capability is very high!
"Although it is not strong enough to conquer all the Sectors of human beings as the star child said, it has indeed controlled a large area of the sea of stars near the capital of the former Star Ocean Imperium.
"Also, judging from the information left by the star child, the enemy has experts in the Divinity Transformation Stage at least!
"This is the information from a hundred and twenty years ago before the star child was born.
"What scale has the Imperium of True Human Beings developed to today? There is no telling. "
The star map in the sky was enlarged nonstop. An area where the starlight was particularly dense appeared, like a nest of billions of fireflies. Billions of rays of brilliance were left behind, making it as splendid as fireworks.
Li Yao slightly frowned, but he was not too surprised.
The formidability of the Imperium of True Human Beings was within his expectations. There was no need to be surprised.
In the competition against the Imperium of True Human Beings, they boasted one of the most powerful weapons, which was distance.
Both the Tian Yuan Realm and the Flying Star Sector were far away from the prosperous areas of the former Star Ocean Imperium. They were at least hundreds of thousands of lightyears away from the former Star Ocean Imperium. They were even further away from the Empyreal Terminus Sector and the capital planet.
It was a taboo for any military to go on a long expedition. The formidability of the Imperium of True Human Beings was one thing, but how many forces it could summon and project to millions of lightyears away was another.
In history, too many empires that were once prosperous had sent out enormous armies. The magnificent army crossed mountains and rivers to attack the enemy that seemed unworthy of mentioning, only to be defeated by the enemy after years of stalemate with the geographical advantage. Not only was the expedition army annihilated, even the empire was falling apart and heading toward the abyss of collapse.
"We do not have many advantages compared to the Imperium of True Human Beings," Professor Mo Xuan said, "but this' Star Prier's House 'is our greatest advantage!
"Normal observation methods cannot be faster than light however fast they are. When we see a certain world millions of lightyears away, what we see is what it was millions of years ago.
"But the surveillance magical equipment in the Star Prier's House can observe the spiritual waves in the four-dimensional space through the fundamental particles deep below the ground and infer the real-time status of a certain world, even if the world is millions of lightyears away!
"It was through the Star Prier's House that we discovered the expedition fleet of the Imperium."
Li Yao raised his eyebrow. "The Imperium of True Human Beings has really sent out an expedition fleet?"
"To be exact," Professor Mo Xuan said, "highly unusual spiritual waves suddenly appeared in the prosperous areas of the former Star Ocean Imperium and jumped to the edge of the cosmos through short-distance space jumps that were almost in a straight line.
"If the spiritual waves maintained the same direction, the Flying Star Sector would be right in front of it!
"Therefore, we concluded that it was the expedition fleet of the Imperium of True Human Beings.
"It was first observed by us two months ago. The timing was right, too.
"The star child sent most of our coordinates to the Imperium of True Human Beings through the space gate. The Immortal Cultivators on the Imperium's side established an enormous fleet in ten months and launched an expedition!
"According to the calculations and speculations of the specialists, the fleet should arrive in the Flying Star Sector in two hundred years at the current speed.
"However, the sea of stars is unpredictable. It is perfectly normal for the fleet to move back and forth for a hundred years."
Li Yao scratched his chin and mumbled, "That is to say, the army of the Imperium of True Human Beings will arrive in three hundred years if they are fast!
"However, I don't quite understand. Why are they so slow? Can't they appear in the sky of the Flying Star Sector after a long-distance space jump? Wouldn't they have caught us unprepared? "
