Chapter 794

Xia Calendar, 7,400 years, Jiang Star
With the arrival of Genesis V, the number of Jiang Star cultivators suddenly surged to over 1.8 million, among which hundreds of thousands were new generation inhabitants of Jiang Star.
After all, among the first batch of 500,000 immigrants, there were 100,000 women, and they were not old or weak; they were young, eligible women. Many years had passed, and the birth rate had increased greatly.
Because in Jiang Star, there was no survival pressure. Houses were given for free, and the average living space was over 100 square meters. A family of three could have spacious apartments, and chores were done by robots. There was also no pressure for studies, so it was normal for the birth rate to rise significantly in such circumstances.
Captain Zhou Shen woke up all the sleeping people in the Space Mother Ship. After getting used to it for half a month, he sent one million immigrants to various continents of Jiang Star. The cities were already built, and there were millions of different robots on Jiang Star, usually busy with construction.
"What a beautiful city!"
"This is a real garden city."
"Wow, such a big house, dear! It’s five times larger than our house in Huaxia. I want to dig a swimming pool, and I want to create my own garden!"
"Wow, I have become a landlord, haha…"
One million immigrants were very satisfied with the current arrangement. After all, if it weren’t for the fact that humans are social animals, each of them could have a big villa.
While the ordinary immigrants were excited, Captain Zhou Shen had already found Lin Guobin and others. Accompanying the captain was another person, who was the former station master of the space station, Ye Chen.
Ye Chen was quite mysterious in Huaxia. Besides being a space station master, he held no public office, but everyone knew that Lin Jiang had a secret force under his control, which was managed by Ye Chen.
"I have met Old Ancestor Ye."
Even Lin Guobin bowed to Ye Chen because Ye Chen was of much higher status. Ye Chen was Lin Jiang’s personal disciple, while Lin Guobin was a descendant many generations away from Lin Jiang.
"I came to Jiang Star for one purpose, which is to give Jiang Star a spiritual vein. Have you chosen the location for the spiritual vein?"
"Ancestor Ye, we have arranged it. There is a mountain range right in the middle of the main continent, stretching northeast to southwest, over a million miles long and hundreds of thousands of miles wide. It is the largest mountain range in Jiang Star and the most stable one…"
Lin Guobin immediately said that he had received news about this matter before and had already verified it from many sources.
"What is the name of this mountain range?"
"Kunlun, that is set by Ancestor Lin."
"Kunlun, yes, that name is very impressive. From now on, Kunlun will be the father of all mountains in Jiang Star."
"Yes, after the welcoming banquet, we can begin."
Lin Guobin said he had prepared a welcoming banquet for the leaders of this group of immigrants, using the remaining spiritual items to treat them.
Three days later, Lin Guobin took Ye Chen to the central area of the mainland, where Ye Chen saw a mountain range that sprawled like a giant dragon across the land, truly impressive.
"What a mountain range! It is even more outstanding than many great mountains of Blue Star."
"There are six large mountain ranges in Blue Star, but none can compare to the grandeur of this mountain range."
The others praised the mountain range, and Lin Guobin said the Kunlun Mountains stretch over a million miles—that is just the main range, and if we count all the branches, it would be astounding. Now, it certainly looks magnificent.
"Everyone, take your time to look. I’ve seen it for many years and am a bit tired of it."
"Let’s get to work first."
Ye Chen nodded, then released hundreds of drones and contacted satellites outside Jiang Star to scan the entire mountain range.
Through the calculations of artificial intelligence, they quickly determined the locations of the mountain range’s key points. Ye Chen then controlled the robots to drill holes at these points, each hole being at least a kilometer deep.
"Go."
Ye Chen took out the Five Elements Bead and used magic to make it fly towards the five holes. Then, he used magic to bury it and took out the last bead.
Ye Chen did not know what this bead was; Lin Jiang did not tell him. However, he could feel the bead’s terrifying power, as if it could capture people’s souls.
"Open."
Ye Chen crushed the bead, and it turned into a shower of starlight, falling into the Kunlun Mountains. When it landed on the ground, it disappeared.
"Ancestor Ye, what is the origin of that bead? I feel so scared, it’s like my soul is trembling."
Lin Guobin quietly asked Ye Chen. As soon as that bead appeared, he felt a chill, as if something extraordinary was watching him.
"I don’t know either. My master gave it to me directly and didn’t say anything else."
Ye Chen replied, Lin Jiang only told him what to do when he reached Jiang Star, but he didn’t say anything more. So, he truly didn’t know.
After everything was done, everyone left and returned to Huaxia City. However, that night, all signals on Jiang Star became chaotic, and even satellites in space nearly fell down. The entire Jiang Star erupted with colorful lights in the darkness.
"Wow, Jiang Star has turned into a glass bead!"
"What is happening?"
"Forget about what is happening, go comfort the people and avoid causing a big problem."
A group of high-ranking officials panicked and rushed out together to calm the immigrants, especially the one million newcomers who had just arrived a few days ago and were naturally a bit frightened by this event.
However, other than the mysterious colors and signal disturbances, Jiang Star showed no other abnormalities; everything else remained the same, and three days later, the strange phenomena disappeared.
"Spiritual energy."
"It is spiritual energy."
Lin Guobin, Ye Chen, and the others were very skilled and immediately noticed the spiritual energy, even though it was very thin and barely felt. But they truly discovered it.
The group exchanged glances and immediately flew out of Huaxia City, heading towards Kunlun Mountain. The closer they got to Kunlun Mountain, the more abundant the spiritual energy became; at the main peak of Kunlun, the spiritual energy was comparable to any spiritual vein on Blue Star.
"Is this the spirit vein?"
"It really is a spirit vein; Jiang Star can cultivate now."
"Ancestor Ye, this…"
"Don’t ask me; I don’t know either. But this is a good thing, isn’t it?"
"Yes, it is indeed a good thing. Ancestor Ye, look, some of the animals we released have already transformed. This is very similar to the spiritual energy recovery on Blue Star."
"It is indeed very similar, but it’s not happening in waves; it has filled up instantly."
"If the whole Jiang Star has spirit veins, I think we should consider renaming it. ‘Treasure Star’ would be more fitting."
"This is already Treasure Star; Huaxia will never decline again."
Ye Chen nodded. With the resources of an entire planet like Jiang Star supporting it, how could Huaxia possibly decline? Other countries, even if united, would not be able to catch up.
"I will go and see the other continents."
"Ancestor Lin, please do not get excited. The other continents won’t have spiritual veins appearing so quickly; it still needs time."
"That’s true; it has only been a few days."
"Consider developing towards the Kunlun Mountains. Jiang Star needs to speed up its growth, and resources must be quickly sent back to Huaxia."
Ye Chen said he came to Jiang Star with a mission, which was to ensure that Jiang Star sends resources back to Huaxia.
Jiang Star is like a colony of Huaxia. While the colony needs development, it must never surpass Blue Star, must not take over, and must not lose control.
So on one hand, he must suppress Jiang Star’s growth; on the other hand, he must ensure that Jiang Star’s resources are sent back to Blue Star, keeping Blue Star always stronger than Jiang Star.
"This is what should be done."
Lin Guobin nodded. His roots are in Blue Star, and for him, sending the resources from Jiang Star back is only natural.
Not only him, but others also thought the same. They believed it was natural. The people of Jiang Star would take a long time, possibly generations, to realize that they were the masters of Jiang Star. Only after they felt unhappy about this situation would they have other thoughts.
However, Huaxia would not let such things happen easily. For example, the leaders needed to change and control the thoughts of the new generation from Jiang Star. They had to ensure that Blue Star kept control over Jiang Star. After all, so much had been invested; it could not be wasted.
