Chapter 124: With Divine Consciousness Out, Confidence Soars
“The brainwave speed of many tribe members at the Spirit Consciousness stage has drastically increased!”
“Impressive! From now on, the military’s strength has leaped beyond the peak of a hundred years ago.”
“Not necessarily, there aren’t many geniuses at the Spirit Consciousness stage yet.”
“At the very least, we still can’t outfit the main cannon of a large battleship with a Spirit Consciousness genius. Not to mention, other aspects also require Spirit Consciousness geniuses to operate.”
“However, it won’t be long; within six months, the number of geniuses at the Spirit Consciousness stage should be sufficient to equip each large battleship with one or two.”
“At that time, the strength of humanity’s military will truly surpass the peak period.”
“And it won’t just be surpassing the peak; with the improvement of large battleships, more geniuses at the Spirit Consciousness stage emerging, and increasing power levels, the strength of humanity will continue to rise!”
“Give us one to three more years, and even if the alliance of eight races reappears, we will still make sure they have no way back!”
In the live room, all the viewers cheered excitedly, pumping their fists.
The great defeat a hundred years ago was an eternal pain for humanity.
It left an indelible shadow in the hearts of all.
Many people now dare not watch videos of top experts from various races easily destroying large battleships with a single punch.
It was too terrifying.
All of humanity believed that after that battle, humanity began to rise to its peak and then decline into a downward spiral.
Some pessimists even thought that that battle marked the beginning of humanity’s demise.
The reason the alliance of eight races withdrew their forces, and the other races did not launch large-scale attacks, was simply due to the vast distances between the galaxies.
Although humanity spared no effort to prevent large battleships from leaking out, they couldn’t stop the outflow of medium and small battleships and civilian space vessels.
Once the various races gathered enough space vessels to transport their armies, they would undoubtedly unite to launch an extermination war against humanity.
After all, the Milky Way was one of the two largest galaxies in the entire star system.
Its abundant resources made it extremely desirable to the surrounding races.
Until now, no race has been able to unify the entire star system, primarily because the distances between the galaxies span millions of light-years.
Even though various races possess some means and treasures capable of tearing space and creating spatial rifts, they each have their own flaws and are far inferior to space jump technology.
The emergence of space jump technology not only allowed humanity to break free from Blue Star but also ushered them into the interstellar era.
It also made the various races, after becoming familiar with everything about humanity, see the hope of dominating other galaxies.
Yi Chen’s rise allowed all of humanity to see the hope of a resurgence.
The imparting of divine consciousness not only presented humanity with the hope of a comeback but also led to a substantial increase in their strength.
The extermination war might indeed erupt at some point in the future.
But who would destroy whom is not so easy to say now.
Even if the alliance of eight races appeared right now, all of humanity remained calm.
After Yi Chen imparted divine consciousness and with humanity’s strength now nearing or possibly exceeding that of their peak,
even if they couldn’t win, it would be enough to ensure that the defense line of the Milky Way would not collapse in the short term.
As long as there is enough time, humanity will only grow stronger.
Full of confidence!
Completely unruffled!
…
In the Three-Eyed Galaxy,
inside a vast hidden chamber,
the Second Elder of the Three-Eyed Tribe sits at the center.
He stands over twenty meters tall,
his body covered in blue scales.
On his forehead, there is a purple vertical eye.
Around him, strange barriers surround the area.
Continuous streams of energy surge toward his vertical eye.
This energy is terrifyingly powerful, capable of easily destroying a mountain or a long river, yet it is entirely absorbed by the purple vertical eye.
Within the barriers, a slight wave of energy emerges.
The Second Elder’s heart stirs.
A purple light shoots from the vertical eye toward the barriers.
The barriers open a gap, revealing a passage over thirty meters high.
Soon, a guard from the Three-Eyed Tribe enters.
“Second Elder, that genius from humanity has imparted his new ability, which is even more powerful than humanity predicted,”
the guard respectfully reports.
The Second Elder’s expression darkens slightly.
He asks, “What about the envoy of the Angelic Beings? How is it progressing?”
The guard explains, “He is still persuading the other elders, hoping they can introduce him to you for a personal discussion about forming an alliance.”
The Second Elder falls into silence.
In the entire star system, which includes humanity, there are twenty-two dominant races, each belonging to one of four systems:
federal, monarchical, theocratic, or feudal.
The Three-Eyed Tribe, like the Angelic Beings, falls under a type of monarchy,
but operates through a clan management structure.
The highest ruler is the clan leader,
followed by the Great Elder.
However, both the clan leader and the Great Elder are engrossed in their cultivation and prefer not to handle clan affairs.
The entire power of the Three-Eyed Tribe is almost entirely concentrated in the hands of the Second Elder.
Of course, the one who holds absolute power remains the clan leader of the Three-Eyed Tribe.
Except for humanity, which follows the Technology Path and is somewhat unique,
in this star system with twenty-one dominant races, regardless of their system—whether it is a federal system like humanity’s, where major decisions require votes from several leaders or even public participation—
in essence, all are based on strength and the supremacy of the strong.
Unless the Second Elder can successfully set a trap to assassinate the clan leader, reclaiming the power he has relinquished will be a simple task for the clan leader.
In this context, the true threat to the clan leader’s position within the Three-Eyed Tribe is not the powerful Second Elder,
but rather the Great Elder, who is only slightly less powerful than the clan leader.
“Inform the elders who have been approached by the envoy of the Angelic Beings. Let them probe the envoy’s intentions and find out what the Angelic Beings’ bottom line for an alliance is.”
After a moment of contemplation, the Second Elder gives the command.
Compared to other races, the Three-Eyed Tribe is the most inclined to ally with the Angelic Beings.
This is because the Three-Eyed Tribe’s hatred for humanity matches that of the Angelic Beings.
Over a hundred years ago, the Three-Eyed Tribe was nearly wiped out by humanity.
For this reason, the leaders of the other races have almost all met with the envoy of the Angelic Beings, but there has been ongoing controversy within.
Only the Three-Eyed Tribe, under the leadership of this powerful Second Elder, has yet to summon the envoy of the Angelic Beings, leaving him waiting.
This is purely to secure greater benefits and leadership after an alliance,
especially since Yi Chen’s formal imparting of his new ability, which exceeds expectations, makes it increasingly difficult for the powerful Second Elder to ignore.
“Additionally, inform the Ninth Elder to send more personnel to the galaxy. We must quickly find a way to eliminate that genius from humanity!”
The Second Elder adds.
“Understood!”
The guard bows and departs to deliver the orders.
The Second Elder lets out a slight sigh,
pushing down his frustration as he returns to his cultivation state.
…
Around the same time, due to Yi Chen’s formal imparting of his new ability exceeding expectations, the debate among the leaders of the various races becomes increasingly heated.
Humanity’s rise beyond the peak is now an irreversible trend.
Even more alarming is that after surpassing their peak, humanity’s strength can continue to rise rapidly.
The three main options before the leaders of all races are whether to join forces to suppress humanity, stand by and watch the battle, or to actually develop a good relationship with humanity.
Regardless of the choice made, the leaders of all races are quickly dispatching more personnel to the galaxy.
It is in the interest of all races, except humanity, to swiftly assassinate the greatest genius in humanity’s history.
