Chapter 344: Temptation of the Spaceship Ticket

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Back at the human stronghold in the otherworld, Chen Yiming stood in the midair and looked down at the behemoth attacking from the horizon. Below him was the human stronghold. The military’s martial arts experts were patrolling the streets to maintain basic order.

“It’s indeed a giant beast that has mutated.”

His eyes narrowed and flashed.

With his powerful vision, he seemed to have turned into an all-seeing eye that crossed the distance between them and arrived near the behemoth.

In the inscription realm, the mysterious symbols acted as a medium. The connection between one’s spiritual power and the power of nature was closer, more intimate, and simpler. One could easily project their will to an extremely far place.

After personally experiencing the power of a new realm, the phrase “becoming a saint” suddenly surfaced in his mind.

Warriors and martial masters were the final categories of the martial arts path that humans had explored. They were the end point of the martial arts realms that humans could determine.

“Extraordinary” was usually used to describe humans who had mastered the internal force, which separated them from ordinary people.

At the level of the inscription realm, one’s powerful abilities were no longer simply categorized as extraordinary. Instead, one had stepped into a brand new domain, becoming a saint.

This was similar to the Western gods and eastern immortals who looked down on the human world in myths and legends. The mysterious symbols tied the mind and body closely to the power of nature.

Natural disasters such as lightning storms, huge typhoons, volcanic eruptions, and even nuclear weapons and laser weapons, were not much different from insect bites for creatures in the inscription realm.

Facing the incoming black tide, Chen Yiming used a trace of his spiritual power to transform into a small figure and enter the space in the mysterious ring.

Unlike the last time he entered, the moment he entered this time, something in the space in the ring seemed to have triggered and automatically activated.

The inner wall lit up with a golden light, turning the entire space golden. At the same time, a large number of strange runes appeared, covering the entire inner wall.

“The runes might be an advanced form of the mysterious symbols.”

From a different height, what he saw, thought of, and comprehended were completely different.

Combining the scene when he entered the space in the ring this time with the scene inside the 10,000-meter-long corpse, the path of martial arts ahead of him became even clearer.

At the same time, he felt a faint sense of rejection. If he dared to make a move here, he might be killed or expelled from the space.

His gaze landed on the female spirit in the middle of the fog. She was curled up into a ball and surrounded by wisps of invisible aura, as if she was sleeping or accumulating her strength.

From the looks of it, the female spirit must have sensed something in advance.

“What should we do? The black tide has really arrived!”

Chen Yiming sent a thought at the other party.

However, something awkward happened again. The female spirit did not respond and remained motionless.

One minute, three minutes, ten minutes…

“Damn it!”

Just as Chen Yiming was about to leave the ring, he received a response from the female spirit.

“Harvesting the negative emotions of living beings? Guiding the black tide to conquer this part of the galaxy?”

The information revealed by the female spirit was different from what Chen Yiming had expected.

Clearly, the true arrival of the black tide was not so simple. There were certain prerequisites.

These prerequisites were related to the negative emotions of living creatures. Perhaps it was the unique way for the black tide to cross through space, and not a method that was understood at a glance like the space-travel passages.

At the same time, the actions of the behemoth were easy to understand. It was not targeting the human stronghold, but the entire dark forest.

Not long after, Chen Yiming retracted his figure and took a step forward. In the blink of an eye, he appeared at the end of the horizon and transformed into a 1,000-meter-tall giant.

“Roar!”

The millions of behemoths stopped in their tracks and roared at the incoming giant. Their roars shook the clouds and created a terrifying invisible storm.

If it was another human warrior or even a martial master, they would surely be devoured by this number of behemoths.

At this moment, the mutated head, huge arms, and fur all became full of life and aimed at the giant that was descending from the sky.

“Too weak.”

The giant sighed in pity.

Once upon a time, the enemies Chen Yiming faced were often of a higher level and larger than him. However, he was the one who was stronger now.

Among the behemoths that were attacking, no one could match his size.

What happened next was a massacre.

With just one punch and one kick from the giant, thousands of behemoths were killed. At the same time, a large amount of black aura surged out.

The attack power of the black aura was extremely strong. Ordinary creatures would die if they touched it and would be transformed into mutant creatures.

However, even after it accumulated to the extent that the black aura spanned hundreds of kilometers and enveloped the entire battlefield, it could not do anything to the giant.

More than half an hour later, the battlefield suddenly fell silent. The behemoths had been completely wiped out, leaving behind only a 1,000-meter-tall giant and a black aura that dyed the entire sky black.

“These are all Skill Points for upgrading my swordsmanship talent!”

Chen Yiming smiled and summoned the spiritual figure.

The black aura emitted after killing one behemoth was completely inadequate. However, it was different when there were millions of them.

No matter how small a mosquito was, it was still food. With a large number of them, the upgrading of his swordsmanship talent was just around the corner.

Another half an hour passed.

The black aura on the battlefield was completely wiped out by the Sword Aura, revealing numerous bottomless holes on the battlefield. These were due to the aftershock of the giant’s attack.

In the suburbs of the capital, in an underground base more than 100 meters deep in the ground.

This was the office of the highest military council in the Daxia Kingdom. It was the command center for wars at the national level. The reason why it was set up deep underground was to prevent any accidents.

At this moment, the few people with the highest authority in the Daxia Kingdom were gathered in the underground base, including the politicians and the military.

Among them, not only was the martial master, Elder Zhang, present, but the martial master, Elder Huang, who was in charge of the security of the north was also present.

Elder Huang was wearing a loose training robe. If one did not look at his face, they would have thought that he was a middle-aged man.

“…This is what happened. The conditions for the arrival of the black tide have yet to be met. The behemoths are not only targeting our stronghold, but also causing panic in the otherworld.”

Chen Yiming revealed the truth.

The space plan could not be delayed any longer. There was nothing to hide in such an emergency situation. It could only be completed with the help of the entire Daxia Kingdom.

The underground base was silent. The top leaders were so shocked that they found it difficult to breathe.

Half a day ago, the behemoths had attacked the human stronghold. Their terrifying numbers had already caused the highest military council to be worried.

This was because everyone already knew that the ‘black tide’ came from outer space. They naturally thought that even the strongest human, Chen Yiming, would not be able to withstand the arrival of the black tide.

With the current progress of the space plan, which was only half completed, once the behemoths entered the blue planet through the space-travel passage, the Daxia Kingdom would be the first to suffer. They might even have no way to retreat.

When they thought about the scene of the battlefield in the Daxia Kingdom, they shuddered.

But now, he was actually saying that the terrifying army of behemoths were just pawns serving the black tide. How could they not feel despair?

If not for the fact that the behemoth army had been completely wiped out by Chen Yiming, if the confidence of the humans had been destroyed, the space plan would have been forced to be carried out in advance.

“Since the behemoths caused chaos in the otherworld, and this is only the prelude to the arrival of the black tide, should we modify the space plan and launch small spaceships in advance to investigate the few planets that may be able to support life?”

In the silence, the highest-ranking leader in charge of government affairs asked.

Before today, no one knew when the black tide would descend.

Was it a year? Or two years? Or three to five years?

The space plan naturally required sufficient preparations to be made. They estimated that it would take them three years to build a more advanced spaceship.

Regarding the choice of the destination planet, there were originally no plans to launch small spaceships in advance. Instead, all the resources were invested in a single large spaceship.

On the day the spacecraft was launched, they would set off along the predetermined route in space. The route would pass by all the planets that may be able to support life, and humans would settle on any suitable planet.

“With the current resources, it’s very difficult to build a single spaceship. I think we should observe the developments in the otherworld and make some last-minute adjustments if necessary,” Chen Yiming replied after some thought.

The reason why he planned to observe the situation was not really because he wanted to sit back and wait. There was a deeper reason for this.

According to the information he had obtained from the female spirit, a certain condition was needed to welcome the arrival of the black tide. Although it was temporarily unknown how much negative emotions the creatures from the otherworld needed to accumulate,

it wasn’t that Chen Yiming couldn’t create an obstacle for the black tide or delay its arrival. The key was the spiritual figure that could be revived without fear of death.

After he spoke, from the expressions on everyone’s faces, they didn’t agree with Chen Yiming’s words.

The difference was that the others believed that the behemoths that affected the entire otherworld could not be stopped. To the humans, this was just the beginning of the arrival of the black tide. It was just a matter of time before they actually arrived.

At this time, taking a risk was nothing. They should respect the principle of not putting all their eggs in one basket.

This concept of sharing the risk had been proven by countless historical lessons.

“Let’s do that.”

Just as the atmosphere froze, Elder Huang suddenly agreed and gave Chen Yiming his full support.

“I agree too.”

Elder Zhang also voiced his support for Chen Yiming.

When it came to the direction of overall strategy, his age was always an unconvincing point. Such matters involved experience that had to be accumulated over time, not his individual strength.

The opinions of the two martial masters carried a lot of weight. It was a form of trust brought about by the fact that they had protected the Daxia Kingdom from the north and south for decades. It was far from what Chen Yiming, who had just risen to power, could compare to, even if he was stronger than everyone on the blue planet combined.

Just like that, with the support of Elder Zhang and Elder Huang, the highest-ranking leaders of the Daxia Kingdom reached a consensus to continue the space plan according to the original plan.

After leaving the underground base, Chen Yiming wandered around the capital.

Even though Jiangnan province had risen quickly and was even given the name of the “land of the elite”, the capital of the Daxia Kingdom still maintained its most special status.

This place had something in common with Jiangnan province. The housing prices were sky-high, and the price of cultivation resources was high. There was a lot of pressure on those who were not locals or warriors.

For example, a student who scored well would be admitted to a university in the capital from another province.

After graduation, unless one met the standards of a “talent” in a scientific research field, it was very difficult for most people to find a job in the capital that could support them.

Another example was a young genius with martial arts talent who had transferred to a school in the capital. He had studied and practiced martial arts, and had tried both paths.

However, the financial pressure of daily cultivation here was many times that of most places. Without strong financial support, he would not be able to withstand it.

On the whole, no matter how tense the atmosphere was outside, the atmosphere in the capital was relatively peaceful. The people lived and worked in peace, and the entertainment venues on the street were lively.

On the street, a man and a woman walked slowly side by side, chatting in low voices from time to time.

Their conversation and the large belly of the pregnant woman attracted Chen Yiming’s attention.

As everyone knew, the first time Chen Yiming was placed in the limelight was after the battle in Japan with the barbarian sorcerer.

These two people were from the Sam Nation and were experts in one area or another.

The man was employed by a microelectronics research institute and was an expert in the field of communication. The woman was employed by a research institute and was an expert in the field of biological materials.

Secretly, the two of them were also top intelligence agents from the Sam Nation.

However, their thoughts had changed. They had rejected the request for information from the Sam Nation for various reasons.

“Anna! Let’s not talk about this anymore. Living well is the right choice.” William sighed, his face full of bitterness.

“William, I’m sorry. I really need a ticket for the spaceship, but…” Anna quickly explained in a low voice. At the same time, the corners of her eyes were wet. Her reason was very flimsy.

“I know. I can understand that. Isn’t it the same for me?” William shook his head and let out a long breath. He seemed to feel much more relaxed.

“Are you doing well now? How did she treat you?” Anna wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and asked curiously.

At the mention of this, a smile appeared on William’s face. “It’s alright. She supports my work wholeheartedly. I can eat delicious food every day when I go home.”

After hearing this, he wanted to say that she was pregnant just like Anna, but in the end, he did not say anything.

After all, one had to look forward. William was a good man with a good character, so he naturally wanted the best for everyone.

Chen Yiming retracted his gaze and re-evaluated the temptation of the spaceship tickets.

In the Sam Nation, the man and woman were not only top geniuses of the younger generation in the scientific research field, but also a couple.

But now, the man was married to a woman from the Daxia Kingdom, and the woman was married to a man from the Daxia Kingdom.

The reason was that the situation on the blue planet was getting worse. Other than the Daxia Kingdom, there was no other relatively stable environment outside.

Other countries could not even resolve the problem of the mutant beasts, let alone deal with the pressure of the black tide. This was enough to influence the choice of most people.

The man and woman could join the research institute as foreigners and be in charge of a portion of the important research, so they were naturally extremely calm.

Both of them thought that heading to a new planet was the best path for humans. Therefore, they chose to give in to reality and rely on their outstanding scientific abilities to secure a ticket to board the spaceship.

To put it bluntly, they felt that the situation on the blue planet was completely hopeless.
