Whoosh!
A cool breeze blew, and the air was filled with the fragrance of flowers.
Xu Zhi left Carolyn and went straight into the spacetime tunnel. He controlled the clone of the ancient god and walked on the mountains and rivers of Ancientwood Planet.
The ground was lush and green.
He looked up and saw the Eternal Tree of the Eleven Stars. The Ancient Tree of the Elves had lush green leaves that overlapped with each other, and the sun shone brightly, forming a bright green sky.
It was a dreamland of birds and flowers.
"I actually made it here."
Xu Zhi was overjoyed. He wanted to laugh out loud.
This meant that the biggest problem he had been facing recently had been solved.
If he could come to Ancientwood Planet at any time, it meant that many things that were impossible could be realized!
The most obvious example was that he could step into outer space. As a weak Celestial Emperor, he did not need to reach level 8 to develop the cosmic vacuum cell civilization and release the Air Sprite!
"It's been two months since I released Diqi. After six thousand years … the eleven Eternal Trees of the Elves have all become gods." Xu Zhi looked up at the sky.
He felt the fine astral power filling the air, forming a world with dense spiritual energy.
The eleven Ancient Trees of the Gods formed the basic laws of Ancientwood Planet. They had become the World Tree, and their leaves had become an atmosphere that protected all life.
Previously, Xu Zhi had only sensed this through the sub-brain of the bug hive. He could not personally intervene.
It was a wonderful feeling to come here personally.
Xu Zhi looked around. "Or perhaps, to Diqi at this moment … these eleven Ancient Elven Trees that have become Gods are like the Grand Overarching Heaven in the past, and he secretly rules over the other eleven Ancestral Wizards."
Diqi was still very cautious.
Just like in the countless ancient times, no one could discover him, the mastermind behind the scenes.
He was about to become the third to become a high-level god after Phoenix and Carolyn. At the same time, his Moon God, Si Yun, had also become a god and awakened from his slumber.
And in these few years, Yumi, the Great Elf Emperor, and Ah Chou also became gods one after another. They developed steadily, and there were no disturbances. Everything happened naturally.
"Six thousand years, two months away from me. This kind of achievement is not too bad."
Xu Zhi walked around the elven cities in a very natural manner. He looked at the exotic scenery along the way and carefully pondered the ecology of Ancient Tree Planet. "From today onwards, this planet will be under my control again."
However, he didn't have much intention of interfering at the moment.
This was a free-range universe drifting sand table controlled by Diqi in the dark. He had opened up this world just to collect taxes and re-absorb the bio-energy of the mass extinction.
After all, paying taxes was the basic duty of the insectoids.
"This time, I have accumulated an unknown amount of enormous energy for who knows how long. After I open it up and return it to my main body, I should be able to break through to middle-stage Heavenly Emperor very quickly." Xu Zhi sighed in admiration.
The more he thought about it, the more excited he became. He felt that he had made a killing this time. From another perspective, Carolyn had suffered a huge loss in her cultivation. In fact, from the perspective of energy, the gains did not make up for the losses.
"Let's go and take a look!"
Rumble!
Xu Zhi gently rushed up.
He flew above the clouds silently and broke through the green atmosphere of the leaves. The sky suddenly turned dark, as if the lights had been switched off. His surroundings turned into a bright galaxy of stars. It was magnificent.
In the distance, there was an interstellar exploration team.
They were rooted on a grayish-black planet with a hazy and thin atmosphere. The entire planet was covered in gray metal and soil. The mountains were undulating as they explored and excavated. The elven exploration team wore specially made spacesuits, but they couldn't sense Xu Zhi's presence at all.
"Now, I am in … the Andromeda Galaxy."
Xu Zhi murmured silently as he looked around at the unfamiliar environment of the starry sky. In the past six thousand years, the distance that Diqi had traveled was not bad.
Even further away, there was a huge dark red planet.
Further away, there were gloomy and oppressive nebulae that emitted faint colorful light. There were even some larger nebulae that formed mysterious oval spots of light, giving off an indescribable sense of awe.
These scenes and scenery were so beautiful, majestic, and spectacular.
"The world is so beautiful. It contains endless miracles and unimaginable possibilities."
Xu Zhi raised his head and looked admiringly at this starry world that made other living creatures feel insignificant. He lowered his head and looked down at his feet. There was no end to it. It was pitch-black.
"Up and down are the four corners of the universe. Since ancient times, the present is called the universe."
In his heart, there was a turbulent and refreshing feeling.
This … was the real starry sky!
This … was the vast sea where the fish could leap, and the high sky where the birds could fly!
He revealed a brilliant smile, and finally felt a sense of relief in his heart. Even though he was only a low level Heavenly Emperor, he finally had the true freedom of a god, and had turned into a bird that looked down on the heavens and earth!
He was no longer a creature trapped in a cage. Others were lamenting their own weakness. Carolyn was lamenting that she was trapped, and so was Xu Zhi.
Whoosh!
He calmed his heart and began to slowly leave Ancientwood Planet, flying in the opposite direction.
"It's time to leave Ancientwood Planet and go our separate ways … After all, it's more important to get down to business. The teleportation portal has already been set up on Ancientwood Planet, so I can go there anytime.
"Carolyn had paid a terrifying price for me to help me reach this step. It could even be said that she had sacrificed half of her life to allow me to skip levels … I could barely come here with the body of a Heavenly Emperor and attempt to establish a space civilization sand table."
"This is a forbidden place, and it is far beyond my current ability. I still have to fulfill my promise to Carolyn, and let her help me develop it.
"I don't have enough strength to lead and develop a space civilization … because what I need to do isn't as simple as kneading soil. It's a terrifying project, transforming mountains and rivers, and even the ecology of a planet … Even if the place I choose is small, it's still very difficult for me."
He was just a Celestial Emperor?
He couldn't fly out of the planet, and he couldn't stay in space for long. What could he do?
Even if he could control the flow of life and activate the Creator Mode, what could he do?
In the face of the low strength of his main body, no matter how strong his racial talents were, they were useless!
At this time, he was not unprepared.
He dismantled part of the Samsara and created a super small mechanical armor that could accommodate his ant clones. It could last for a period of time in space, and then he went to look for a new land.
"I've already asked the sub-brain of the Zerg to select a few suitable environments based on Diqi's travel route and the planet's data.
"Connate Qi, radiation light system … I should be able to find a good place in this world to reproduce a space civilization … As for the cultivation system, I don't need to follow the evolution of the players. Their Six Paths of Reincarnation don't exist in a real space, so the environment is different …"
He continued to fly, thinking.
He was not worried about not being able to return if he left Carolyn's teleportation portal on Ancientwood Planet, because he had a new teleportation portal with him. The most difficult thing was the teleportation portal that came first. The other teleportation portals were easy.
It was just like when he was on Mercury.
At that time, he had to fly slowly to Mercury, but once he arrived, he could leave the teleportation portal behind and go back.
In fact, when one reached the level of a mid-level god, the use of teleportation portals was relatively widespread. It was not as costly as it was for low-level gods. For Ermin and the others, in the big cities of the Three Realms, the high and mighty gods had built teleportation portals for the strong to communicate with each other. It was just that they had to pay a certain price for each teleportation.
On the contrary, the gods were very keen on building such teleportation portals. The construction was a temporary loss, but the profits were endless.
"I've gotten quite a few sets of these paired teleportation portals from Ermin … After all, the times are not as tight as before, and everything is developing."
Xu Zhi continued to fly.
One day, two days …
Time passed.
The Ancient Tree Planet behind him gradually turned into a jade-green, fantastical planet. It was magnificent.
After a few more days, the entire Ancientwood Planet suddenly tore open a black hole-like spatial fold. He gently plunged into it and jumped away.
"As expected, Diqi is jumping again …"
Xu Zhi turned his head to look.
Every once in a while, Diqi would perform a fixed distance jump, and then slowly recover his strength before returning. Of course, the distance of each jump was not long.
"Since he's gone, I can search more easily in this area. I don't have to worry about him secretly learning from me." Xu Zhi still ignored him and continued to move forward.
It was not too difficult to find a suitable small planet.
Because it did not need an atmosphere, oxygen, and carbon dioxide, which were the most precious things to living beings, and only needed solid water, there were relatively many such planets exposed to radiation.
"Retrieving."
A mechanical voice suddenly sounded. Xu Zhi looked down at the star map data provided by the sub-brain.
An out-of-body light blue virtual star map appeared in front of him.
There were more than 30 points, all of which were data secretly collected by the sub-brain on Diqi's way as the Explorer spacecraft.
"More than 30 matches …"
Xu Zhi observed along the way. He saw more than 30 perfect star systems, similar to the sun's environment. Some of the planets that met the conditions had solid ice, which allowed the air spirits, carbon dioxide, and oxygen to circulate.
After all, they did not need these two gases directly. As long as the planet had carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen, it would be enough. They would find a way to synthesize and self-circulate. In fact, the demand for "air" in this aspect was actually very low.
As for the most important thing in demand, it was liquid water.
In the universe, without the protection of the "atmosphere", which was an important condition for habitable planets, liquid water would have long escaped from the planet. Therefore, the water on the planet was basically in the form of solid ice. At the same time, because there was no atmosphere, the planet was cold. At a temperature below zero, it would naturally freeze … Perhaps, there would be a small amount of liquid water below the solid ice layer, but there was no need to think too much about it. It could not support the entire world.
"Solid ice is my only choice. I can just melt it. It's better than stealing water from Earth."
Xu Zhi kept retrieving the information of the planets.
"This one is very good."
He saw a huge perfect planet three times the size of Earth. It had solid ice, a vacuum environment, and was full of radiation.
"But it's too big." Xu Zhi sighed, feeling that it was a pity. "Carolyn and I will definitely not be able to do it. In the early stages of reproduction, melting solid ice will definitely create underground rivers to nourish all living things. Only then will they be able to develop … After they develop, the underground rivers will not matter. When they have experts, they can melt it themselves and be self-sufficient. They can even directly transform their own environment.
And this planet is three times the size of Earth. Unless Carolyn breaks through to a level 9 world … Only then will she have the terrifying power to transform a vast planet with her own strength. Moreover, Carolyn's cultivation has dropped so much. She is only a low-level god. I cannot be greedy. "
Xu Zhi looked at the next planet that met the requirements. It was about the same size as Earth.
After a moment of silence, he rejected it again.
"Carolyn and I still can't eat it!"
"It's impossible!"
He felt a little pain in his heart. He could only constantly comfort himself.
"A big plate is good. We can eat more, but a small plate is easier to develop … If we can manage it well, in the future, when more experts appear in the civilization, we can consider migrating. After all, it is a race in the universe that is in a vacuum. Interstellar migration can occur."
He used his hand to push through the planets.
One after another, more perfect and larger planets were filtered out. Xu Zhi also felt the pain in his heart.
Soon, Xu Zhi quickly locked onto an environment that was similar to the solar system. It was on a gas giant.
It slowly spiraled. It was a sphere mostly formed by air currents. It looked like a dark red vortex ball. It was composed of a large amount of hydrogen, helium, various gas components, and quite a bit of solid ice.
Don't think that gas planets are extremely rare.
Saturn and Jupiter are gas giants. In our solar system alone, most of the planets are not composed of soil and land.
This gas giant only had seven satellites orbiting around it. One of them was a super-small satellite. It was made of soil and solid ice. It had a thin atmosphere around it. It had all the necessary gases.
"Satellite … I'm so poor that I can only choose the smallest satellite."
Xu Zhi's eyelids twitched. He felt that he had lost a lot of money.
"This satellite is smaller than the moon … It indeed meets the requirements, and the distance is very close."
"We should still be able to transform it."
He looked at a huge golden fireball in the distance, but he hesitated for a moment.
"However, this small satellite orbits that gas giant, and this gas giant also orbits a celestial body similar to the sun. It's a bit far from the 'sun', and the radiation is low. The disadvantage is too great … But it doesn't matter! How can it be so perfect? Anyway, it's not like it's a power station for me. Whether they have enough energy or not is none of my business … "
In fact, this was a difficult choice to make.
If you were close to the sun, there would be high temperature, high radiation, and there would definitely be no water.
Far away from the sun, there would be water, and even ice, and there would not be enough radiation.
"This is the place … Solid water and gas can all be obtained by myself. It's self-sufficient."
Xu Zhi took a deep breath. "Let's start rowing!"
Thud!
After some time, Xu Zhi gently landed on this small satellite.
He looked around at the pits, the desolate valleys, the soil, and the frozen surface in the depths. This was a small satellite that was even smaller than the moon, but it was still bigger than China and the territory of a rooster.
"The sand table this time is ridiculously large. It's even larger than the entire territory of Hua Xia. It's 13 million square kilometers, and that's even for these small creatures. It's already an incomparably vast and boundless land, truly endless!"
Xu Zhi took a deep breath.
"I have to transform and green the planet!"
He left the teleportation array and turned to leave.
After a while, Xu Zhi returned again with a large amount of oxygen and carbon dioxide. Although there were oxygen, hydrogen, carbon, and even methane in the air, they could not be absorbed, decomposed, and synthesized at the moment.
Xu Zhi had no time to create an artificial underground river. He directly got a pile of iron pipes, buried them in the ground, and connected one end to the solid ice buried deep.
Splash!
Xu Zhi released a spell slightly, and the ice began to melt, flowing into the pipe, and turning into an undercurrent.
"Intelligent sub-brain, raise the gene bank, and reproduce vacuum plants!"
A mechanical voice sounded.
"Reproducing."
…
Very soon, vacuum plants appeared.
They absorbed oxygen and carbon dioxide, took root in the water, and formed a self-contained cycle. They had strong vitality and could resist the cold vacuum. They quickly scattered on this barren small satellite, like cactus in the desert.
