"Huh?"
Brilliance flashed in the eyes of the leader of the Ultimate One Sect.
"Leader, after the mortals drink the black spring, their bodies will be strong and they will not be scared of the venomous fog, the cold, or the heat. They will also be able to adapt to all kinds of rough food!
"In such a case, won't we be able to send them to the worlds with harsh environments and ask them to explore the wastelands?
"This plan is beneficial to everyone!"
"Right now, the planets under the governance of the Ultimate One Sect are running out of resources, and there is a shortage of crops and resources. They have to be supplied to the frontline every now and then. Should the frontline fail, the entire planet will be occupied.
"Wherever the weapons go, nothing will grow. Even if it is not savaged by the flames of war, many places are in famine all year round. The people can only live on the bark, the roots, and the Bodhi Soil. They can't be more miserable than ever.
"Even if they are lucky enough to join the army, they will be sent to the frontline after only two meals, where they will be consumed by the mortal troops under the command of the Mystic Moon Sect and the Dragon King Brotherhood. They will end up as cannon fodder in the millstone of flesh and blood!
"There will be no way for the ordinary people to survive!
"However, there are still a lot of desolate planets with harsh environments under the governance of the Ultimate One Sect. Abundant resources are stored there!
"If some of the mortals who have nowhere to go are gathered and drink the black spring to strengthen their body, they will be able to survive in the venomous fog. They will be able to eat the rough food such as the Gold Grass and the Tiger Oats. They will even be able to protect themselves when they are faced with the brutal animals!
"Won't they be sent out to explore the wastelands?
"However hideous they look and how harsh the environment is, it will still be better than eating the Bodhi Soil until they bloat to death!
"In such a case, a lot of ordinary people will be able to find a way to survive. The resources they excavate will be enough for the Ultimate One Sect to rest, too. It will no longer be necessary to fight the Mystic Moon Sect and the Dragon King Brotherhood for a few insignificant mother lodes. The three parties can reach a truce agreement!
"Furthermore, when the resources are accumulated to a certain extent, we will be able to enter the vast universe of space. We can also march to the vast sea of stars beyond the three thousand Sectors again and completely jump out of the cage where we are killing each other! "
"By then, infinite resources will be waiting for us on the other side of the universe. All the sects in the three thousand Sectors will no longer need to fight each other for the petty interests. We will work together and explore the infinite universe. The war will be over forever. Peace has finally arrived! "
"Both mortals and Cultivators can live a better life in such a world!"
"This is just a small thought of mine. It's also the reason why I started my research on the Infinite Star before reporting to the headquarters!"
"This matter is indeed my own decision. If the Sect Leader and the Law Enforcement Elder want to punish me, I have nothing to say!"
"However, this matter concerns the foundation of the Greater One Sect and the future of the trichiliocosm. Sect Master and Elders, please do not give up on the exploration of the Black Spring and the research of strengthening mortals! "
"Disciple. Please, Sect Leader! "
While talking, Ba Yanzhi suddenly fell on his knees and kowtowed to the high and mighty leader of the Ultimate One Sect.
There was an uproar among the high-level Cultivators of the Ultimate One Sect nearby. They all whispered to each other despite the solemn environment.
"Strengthen mortals to explore the Desolate World?"
"That sounds feasible. I don't know. "
"Yanzhi, get up!"
The Taiyi Sect Leader raised his hand slightly. An invisible force helped Ba Yanzhi to his feet slowly. "If what you said is true, you have indeed been loyal to the Ultimate One Sect. You have made great contributions without any mistakes.
"You have defended the Infinite Star for an entire year. You should be rewarded according to your contributions. However, many people found it hard to believe that the Infinite Star Farm managed to resist the attack of the Mystic Moon Sect and the Dragon King Brotherhood for an entire year. That's why they asked you to return to the headquarters and explain everything.
"Naturally, more inspectors will be sent to investigate the matter. However, your heartfelt words are indeed thought-provoking!"
Ba Yanzhi was both surprised and delighted. "Leader, do — do you agree to my proposal?"
The Taiyi Sect Leader scratched his long beard and smiled casually. The brilliance deep inside his eyes seemed to have encompassed the entire universe.
This period of fleeting light and passing shadows came to an end.
The illusionary world collapsed abruptly like a tower of sand. Then, the colorful quicksand swirled and congregated into a brand-new scene.
Now, it's the second important memory piece of 'Chaos'.
Li Yao thought to himself. According to the first memory piece, the mortals were transformed into 'demons' because they had no other choice. It does make sense. At the end of the first civil war of the Cultivators, in the broken world where countless lives were lost, ordinary people had to be transformed into demons in order to have a slim chance of survival.
But I wonder, what happened later that turned Ba Yanzhi into 'Chaos'?
The second illusionary world was a dry world under a pale, yellow sky.
The trees on the mountains far away had long been chopped down, revealing the bare rocks. Even a large part of the rocks had been dug away, revealing shocking craters, as if the bones of the mountains had been exposed to everyone.
On the dry, cracked land, a thick, long dragon was wriggling slowly. It was the millions of starving people.
It was a starving planet.
Countless starving people carried straw mats and used rags to wrap up their only belongings as they moved towards hope.
Every now and then, a staggering starving person would fall without a sound, but the people behind him seemed not to have seen it at all and simply stepped over him. Even his family did not have the time to look at him and simply followed the team.
The years of war had completely destroyed the feelings of the ant-like people.
The destination of the team, however, was a vast valley. Continuous tents had been established in the valley temporarily. Behind the tents, deep inside the valley, were enormous teleportation arrays more than a hundred meters in length and width.
Colorful pillars of light shot out of the teleportation arrays now and then and soared into the sky, dyeing it into various colors, as if it were a city of deities standing in the clouds. All the starving people were filled with hope and longing. They waved their arms and legs even faster than before.
Li Yao saw that countless starving people entered from one end of the valley. There was no telling what procedures they had gone through in the continuous tents, but when they walked out from the other end, their bodies were strong and vigorous. Some of the features of the demon race had appeared on their bodies, too.
However, compared to the demonic beasts forty thousand years later, the demonic characteristics of these people were still very sparse. At most, their skin had become darker, and they would grow horns on their heads. Their canine teeth would become longer, or they would grow a small tail.
Ba Yanzhi was still wearing the black armor, but it had been carefully cleaned and covered in a layer of grease, which was now as bright as a mirror. He was not as dusty as he was in the first scene. Instead, he was glowing with health and vigor. Holding his head high, he was commanding the mutated starving people to board the teleportation arrays.
A teleportation array could accommodate a thousand starving people. After a flash of brilliance, the thousand people were gone. There was no telling where they had been teleported to.
"Master!"
Suddenly, a family of six starving people, whose heads were all growing horns and noses that were thicker and larger than the heads of bulls, ran out of the crowd and kowtowed to Ba Yanzhi. "Thank you for saving our lives, deity! Thank you for saving our lives, master! If Senior Immortal didn't save us, our entire family would have been cooked in a pot of soup! "
Ba Yanzhi looked at them and burst into laughter. He patted the muscular man's shoulder and said casually, "Zhang Niuer, it's you! I didn't expect that you would become so muscular after taking the 'Divine Water of Kunlun', which is exactly the word 'Ox' in your name. Hahahaha! How about it? Do you like your current appearance? "
Zhang Niuer and his wife looked at each other in bewilderment. He scratched the bull's head and said, somewhat in embarrassment, "You are indeed a bit uglier, but you are stronger than before. You are not picky about food anymore. You can even swallow the Bodhi Soil without being hungry. That's better than anything!"
"You won't be hungry anymore!"
Ba Yanzhi declared resolutely. "After we return to the Green Wolf Planet, every family will be allocated a piece of land. Even part of the products in the mother lodes will be yours, too! As long as you are willing to work hard, your life will certainly be better and better! "
"Thank you for your great kindness, master. We will do anything for you!"
While talking, Zhang Niuer seemed to have realized that his current appearance was somewhat similar to that of a cow. He smiled first.
Ba Yanzhi smiled, too. He said firmly, "There's no need to work for me. If you want to thank me, just live a good life on the Green Wolf Sector and develop the Green Wolf Sector into a new prosperous world as soon as possible!"
"After you bring back abundant resources from the Green Wolf Planet, more starving people will have enough to eat. The war between us and the Mystic Moon Sect and the Dragon King Brotherhood will be over, too. Maybe you will have a chance to come back to your home one day!
"If we are given a large piece of land, we will not come back! Home? As long as you can feed my cow dolls, that place is my home! "
Zhang Niuer boldly declared.
Ba Yanzhi was dazed for a moment. Then, he nodded and said, "Well said, Zhang Niuer. Home is where we can feed ourselves! Now, go and build … our home! "
Zhang Niuer thanked him profusely. Together with his family, they joined the crowd in a hurry. Together with the starving people who were in bizarre shapes but whose eyes were glittering, they boarded the teleportation array and marched toward their new home after glittering brilliantly for a while!
The scene was like a mirage that soon disappeared. The butterflies of light and shadow danced and congregated into the third scene. This time, Ba Yanzhi returned to the headquarters of the Ultimate One Sect and appeared in the magnificent temple.
The temple had been expanded and looked even more splendid than before. Gold brilliance was glittering everywhere, making it look as magnificent as the Empyrean Palace. Even the plaque of 'Ultimate One Sect' was glittering as if it had been carved out of a whole crystal. It was indescribably magnificent.
Ba Yanzhi's devastating screams echoed inside the splendid temple like the cries of ghosts and the howls of wolves.
