Chapter 408: Humanity Decides to Escape

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Just as the dark creatures suddenly counterattacked and silenced the plate-shaped world at lightning speed, the source of the suppressed aura in deep space finally appeared.

An ancient stone platform flew over. It was not big, only about 1,000 feet, but there were many mysterious diagrams of bird creatures engraved on it.

The diagrams of the bird creatures were still in a dark state. At first glance, they looked like murals. Upon closer inspection, they seemed to have come alive and charged into the spiritual world of living creatures, emitting a fierce killing intent.

On both sides of the stone platform were two stone pillars. They were also engraved with mysterious diagrams of bird creatures.

“As expected, they are going to call on some stronger existences.”

What Chen Yiming was looking at wasn’t the diagrams of the bird creatures, but the faint spatial fluctuations emitted by them.

Clearly, these bird creatures had powerful space-manipulation abilities when they were alive. However, they had been turned into diagrams engraved on the stone platforms and pillars using special methods.

At this moment, the white cat and the golden ape had retreated deep into the forest, keeping a distance from the dark creatures.

“The three dragon gods and the treasure tree are actually trapped. Does Master need to face the counterattack of the black tide alone?” the white cat asked worriedly.

They had thought that with the aid of an external force from the plate-shaped world, they would be able to quickly defeat the black tide and catch them off guard. Who knew that the counterattack would come so quickly?

A large number of dark creatures had already sneaked into the world under their noses. They even beat them at their own game and created the false impression that they were retreating, causing the situation to change drastically.

“This is nothing. What’s the hurry? Master descended into this world after the dragon gods killed the dark creatures from the otherworld.”

“The black tide might be able to be mobilized to a level that matches Master, but that will definitely be the next time, not this time.”

“It’s just like when the three dragon gods were born. With the power of the treasure tree, the black tide was wiped out before they could react.”

The golden ape was different from the white cat. It firmly believed in Chen Yiming’s identity and was confident in his abilities. Back then, the dragon gods had not only been trapped by the black nets, but had been destroyed one after another by him.

In the golden ape’s opinion, Chen Yiming had the power to easily destroy the dragon gods.

The white cat was about to continue when the stone platform suddenly started to move violently. Its gaze was immediately attracted to it.

At the same time, countless gazes turned to the stone platform hovering in space, including those of the dark creatures. The diagrams of the bird creatures on it had turned into shadows and were really coming to life.

There was the shadow of a phoenix, the shadow of a five-colored bird, and the shadow of a giant roc…

Then, a large ball of black light rushed out of the five worlds in this galaxy and quickly flew towards the stone platform. It fused with the stone platform and dyed the diagrams of the bird creatures black.

In the next moment, an invisible force forcefully tore open a door in the space between the two stone pillars. Lightning appeared in the air above, and countless forked lightning bolts struck the door. A dull sound shook the starry sky.

As time passed, a door bathed in lightning and shining with white light appeared. It was dozens of meters tall, and one could see bits and pieces of compressed images inside, as if it was connected to another world.

This was a long-distance space-travel passage.

“It seems that I was still a step too late. Or rather, I happened to encounter a counterattack from the black tide against the plate-shaped world. It’s not that there was a fatal flaw in my plan.”

Chen Yiming’s expression remained the same. He planned to take things one step at a time. After all, he could escape at any time.

In the circular valley, at the center of the world, the oldest dragon god’s body was tied to the ground by a large black net. Its gaze stopped on the door, and it regretted underestimating the speed of the black tide’s counterattack and the value of the treasure tree.

“If only I could have discussed with the person from the Peacekeeping Alliance about how to deal with them earlier, I wouldn’t be helplessly trapped here.”

It was unknown how the black net was created, but it seemed to be specially targeting the energy in the inner world in the bodies of its restrained targets.

However, it was useless to regret it. Even if they could turn back time, the three dragon gods would still make the same choice as before. There would be no chance of them making another choice.

The ability of the treasure tree was too shocking. It could actually help living creatures condense the inner world and break through to the god realm.

Furthermore, this was not the end. If the conditions were met, the treasure tree could undergo another transformation. The three dragon gods would be the first to benefit from it.

“Tree Spirit, what should we do? The person from the Peacekeeping Alliance seems to have no intention of saving us. Something is amiss.”

The oldest dragon god lying in front of the treasure tree spoke.

In the past, its consciousness would enter the treasure tree and communicate with the tree spirit. Now that it was restricted by the black net, it did not know if it could successfully communicate with the tree spirit.

One second.

Two seconds.

The treasure tree did not give any response.

The heart of the oldest dragon god sank. It turned to look in Chen Yiming’s direction, but he had yet to leave. It immediately realized that the counterattack from the black tide was extraordinary, and that the other party wasn’t willing to act rashly.

On second thought, “The person from the Peacekeeping Alliance has the ability to travel through space at will. Even if he is no match for them, he can still escape. Furthermore, the black tide is targeting the treasure tree.”

At the thought of this, its face turned ashen.

…

At the same time, the black tide was about to descend on this galaxy with even stronger forces!

When this news was blurted out by the spiritual figure representing Chen Yiming, all the spaceships from the various countries in the Daxia Kingdom were shocked.

After receiving the order from their superiors, the hundreds of thousands of staff members in charge of controlling the spaceships went on guard against the incoming enemy. Their normal leave and rest time were all canceled, and everyone stayed at their posts 24 hours a day.

The news stations of the various countries also urgently broadcasted this news. They informed the humans who were transporting supplies or entering the trial grounds to return to the spaceship as soon as possible.

“Will the black tide use this opportunity to launch a counterattack to the blue planet?”

In front of the television, some people were worried about this.

“All the spaceships from the various countries have yet to be completed. The factories have only just been rebuilt inside the spaceships. How should we resolve the problem of the raw materials after leaving the blue planet?”

Many experts were panicking.

The deeper meaning of this news was that if the changes in the other world developed beyond their control, in order to avoid being affected, humans would have to set off even if they were not completely prepared.

However, the problem was that all the technology on the blue planet was developed based on the conditions on the blue planet.

Although they could stop and resupply on the nearby planets along the way, they could not just rely on luck.

What if some important raw materials could not be replenished for a long time? A spaceship that could not be completed could only be used as a cargo ship forever.

At the international video conference, “I officially propose that humans take the initiative to enter the next era and enter deep space to find another home suitable for us to settle down in,”

the top leader of the Daxia Kingdom stood up and expressed his opinion concisely.

As soon as he finished speaking, the discussions among the attendees exploded.

In the past, the Daxia Kingdom was the first to receive insider information, tips, suggestions, and so on from Chen Yiming. The situation in their country had always been mostly stable, which made the other countries envious.

Now that the leader of the Daxia Kingdom had said such a thing, the meaning behind it was obvious. He was not trying to scare anyone, but the situation could really change drastically at any moment.

With the blockade destroyed, humans were no longer stuck with no way out. Instead, they could control their own fate to a certain extent.

“The European Union agrees.”

“The Sam Nation agrees.”

“Japan agrees.”

“Russia agrees.”

…

Soon, the heads of the various countries voted in agreement.

The top leader of the Daxia Kingdom continued, “With the fragments of extraordinary weapons, we can reforge the spaceship’s power system so that our transport spaceships can easily travel between the blue planet and Mars.”

“The human spaceship fleet can gather in the orbit of Mars first. We can use the transport spaceships to return to the blue planet to collect the supplies that can’t be gathered on Mars.”

The heads of the various countries nodded.

Everyone understood what the top leader of the Daxia Kingdom was saying. The news that the world might be undergoing a huge change had come from Chen Yiming, and he still needed to stay there for the time being.

Flying the spaceships to Mars’s orbit first was a compromise, based on the development of the situation in the other world.

If things went well, the human spaceship fleet could fly back to the blue planet and continue to make sufficient preparations before setting off. If things went south, they could just escape without looking back.

Not long after, the international video conference ended.

Soon, when the news that the human spaceships were about to set off and officially embark on the path into space spread, the blue planet was in an uproar again.

Facing the unknown deep space, be it the experts and professors who had long been mentally prepared or the well-known martial arts experts who had long been able to keep themselves calm, or those who were naturally extremely optimistic, everyone immediately felt that their hearts were empty.

The feeling of emptiness grew when they heard the news, and it was uncontrollable.

“Are we really leaving this time?”

In the living area of the spaceships, many family members took out the videos they had recorded when the situation on the blue planet had stabilized.

There were many such videos. Almost all the families had spent a few days making them. After all, if they left, there was a high chance that they would leave their hometown forever.

The unknown deep space first brought about a sense of unfamiliarity. During the monotonous journey in deep space, it was inevitable that one would not be able to hold back their emotions.

At that time, if they could take out the videos about their hometown and have a cry after watching it, it would be much better than keeping it bottled up.

“God bless our son, and let him return safely.”

In the Chen family’s house, Father Chen and Mother Chen kept muttering.

“Brother, I won’t slack off in martial arts in the future. We have to have all the members of our family. You have to come back.”

Chen Yingying was also praying in her heart.

At this moment, the familial bond between them suddenly grew stronger. Chen Yingying felt that she had matured a little.

At the same time.

“The first time you create a miracle is luck, and the second time is God’s blessing. Continuously creating miracles past the third or fourth time means that it is based on the abilities that you already have.”

“You have to come back. The symbol that represents the martial arts of the blue planet cannot be anyone other than you.”

All the martial arts experts in the countries prayed for Chen Yiming.

To all who aspired to walk the path of martial arts, having a pioneer who could lead them at the forefront was extremely important. He was like a lighthouse on the sea at night.

If the light from the lighthouse was extinguished, the path he had taken would be lost.

…

In space, outside the plate-shaped world, it had been a while since the door had appeared, but other than the occasional violent tremor and the increasing pressure, nothing had happened. Nothing had walked out from it.

“Master, what should we do?”

The faint light on the blue elk’s body flickered. It was a little flustered and worried since it was weak. If it was affected by the upcoming battle, it was very likely to die.

“Wait,” Chen Yiming’s expression remained the same as he said calmly.

Actually, how would he know what to do? He was just an imposter, so he needed to adapt to the situation and avoid being attacked.

As for using the space anchor to destroy the door, this was beyond Chen Yiming’s ability. After all, although the space anchor could break through the space-travel barrier, it was useless against a large amount of spatial energy.

In essence, the stone platform and the stone pillars were not the key. The key was the shadows of the bird creatures that had come alive. They had used the black light from the five worlds as energy to forcefully open a space-travel passage.

“The counterattack of the black tide is targeted at the three dragon gods and the treasure tree. Do you think I’m stupid enough to stand out at this time?”

Chen Yiming thought to himself. He hadn’t forgotten that he was here to obtain benefits, not to help this world stop the black tide from invading.

If he confirmed that there was no chance for him to obtain any benefits later, he would quickly take advantage of the fact that the black tide was dealing with the resistance in this world and escape along with all of humanity.

That’s right, escape.

If he didn’t escape, after this world was dealt with, he would definitely be the next.

Previously, he had disrupted the attacks of the black tide that had invaded the world several times. However, the situation had turned out this way because the existence of the treasure tree was more important to the black tide than dealing with Chen Yiming.

“Master is from the central galaxy…”

The blue elk trembled slightly. Chen Yiming didn’t stop it, which meant that the existence that had crossed over was very powerful. This wasn’t good news.

Time continued to pass. The center of the door gradually emitted a white light and a black dot could vaguely be seen.

“Is it coming?”

“Is it really coming?”

All the living creatures in the entire plate-shaped world felt as if they had been cursed in their hearts. The hair on their bodies stood on end, and they felt a chill run down their spines.

Suddenly!

Chen Yiming raised an eyebrow.

It was not that something had happened at the door, but that an unfamiliar guest had appeared in his spiritual world.

“You are…?”

Chen Yiming’s consciousness asked the old man in front of him.

This old man was formed from a trace of spiritual power, and it contained a portion of his will.

“Let me introduce myself. I’m what the creatures of this world call the treasure tree.”

The old man smiled with an amiable expression. His figure and appearance were almost like that of a real human, and he imitated 99% of a human’s appearance.

Seeing this, Chen Yiming became vigilant.

He was the first human to appear in the plate-shaped world. Before the treasure tree came into close contact with him, it had already secretly observed him to the extent of being able to imitate his body structure.

In addition, the treasure tree had been buried by the female spirit, so its knowledge might be beyond what he knew. In that case, the trick he had used to trick the three dragon gods might not work with it.

“Should I call you the honorable guest from the central galaxy, or a human?”

The old man maintained his smile and questioned him.

Chen Yiming’s expression remained unchanged.

The old man formed by the will of the treasure tree might be trying to trick him, or he might really have seen through his tricks. However, it was not important. He could escape at any time, but the black tide was targeting the treasure tree.

“So what?”

Chen Yiming gave an ambiguous answer. He neither admitted nor denied it.

“I’m also from the central galaxy. I have the fire attribute. As long as I have enough resources to grow, I can turn the place I’m rooted in into a holy land for cultivation,”

the old man explained with a smile.

“F*ck, I’m from the central galaxy. Are you also from the central galaxy?”

Chen Yiming almost broke through his act and cursed loudly. In the end, he held it in and his expression remained unchanged.

“The central galaxy is very big. A god of the lowest level there is not much stronger than ordinary supernatural creatures in this world.”

“Under normal circumstances, those below the level of a god can’t enter the central galaxy. It’s not that they aren’t allowed to enter, but that they can’t withstand the environment there.”

“Cultivating in the central galaxy for one day can be compared to…”

The old man slowly explained the common knowledge of the central galaxy.

Chen Yiming was naturally skeptical.

In terms of bragging, he knew how to do it too. In any case, where was the central galaxy? What was it like? If he had not been there before, he would not be able to tell if it was real or fake.

Not long after, the other party finished speaking. Chen Yiming didn’t take the initiative to say anything and just waited.

He knew very well that the treasure tree was definitely more anxious than him. The other party would be the one to lose his cool in the end.

As for his identity being exposed, that wasn’t a problem at all. It was fine if he couldn’t pretend anymore. The three dragon gods and the group of terrifying creatures from the plate-shaped world could not really deal with Chen Yiming.

Furthermore, it was still unknown if the plate-shaped world could withstand the counterattack of this black tide.

“Cough, cough!”

The old man coughed awkwardly and continued, “I know that with your special space-manipulation ability, it won’t be a problem for you to take me away.”

“I have a deal for you here. If you save me this time, I’ll help you condense the inner world and break through to the god realm. How about that?”

Hearing this, Chen Yiming shook his head without any hesitation.

This deal might be very tempting to others. After all, the realm of gods controlled a higher level of power, the power of the world.

The power of the world was a qualitative improvement compared to the power of nature.

However, for him, there was no need to do something through making a deal when it could be done through his Skill Points.

“Then let’s make another deal. You take me away and I’ll stay by your side and follow your orders for 100 years. How about that?”

The old man seemed to have expected that the first deal would be rejected, so he asked again in the blink of an eye.

Chen Yiming didn’t reply. It was clear from his expression that he didn’t agree.

Control it for 100 years?

Was that all?

Did it not understand the situation? Did it think that the other party was a fool? He might not even want it even if it gave itself away for free.

He had to see if the thing that walked out of the door was a threat to him and if it was worth the risk of being hunted down to give the treasure tree a way out.

That’s right. In Chen Yiming’s eyes, if he didn’t save the treasure tree, it wouldn’t be able to escape.

Don’t think that you can trick people just by transforming into an old man. Chen Yiming had learned about it from the female spirit. The treasure tree had only just grown up, and compared to living creatures, it was equivalent to an adult in age.

It could be seen that the treasure tree was also spouting nonsense. There was a high chance that what he said about the central galaxy was not true. At most, it was information it had filled in based on some rumors.

Soon, as the old man that the treasure tree had transformed into was angered till his beard was trembling, a trace of the female spirit’s will appeared in Chen Yiming’s spiritual world. The old man was shocked and his entire body trembled.
