Chapter 2287 Marshal
When the legion ship arrived, the captain was quite friendly, but he expressed a desire to learn more about Asura.
However, Dorgon maintained the same attitude: "I have said all I can say."
So what if you have unprecedented weapons of war? Don't flaunt them in front of us.
However, at the same time, Han Li Zhenzun also said: This guy is not bad, I can feel a bit of a threat.
That's the truth. Although the Out-of-Body technique is powerful, it will still cause damage if you take a few hits head-on.
However, the Great Venerable has too many tricks up his sleeve. If he gets serious, even a legion of ships is nothing.
Of course, human strength has its limits, and even the spiritual energy of immortals has its limits. It is not rational to take machines too seriously.
Back then, even though Jiao Daoren was also a Nascent Soul cultivator, he was still squeezed into a passive position by many Master-level ships.
Qu Jianlei was not surprised by Han Li Zhenzun's statement, and was even somewhat relieved.
If the Federation performs poorly, their own team will lose face.
He nodded and said, "The technology side is not entirely useless. The Cangwu Realm used some of it to resist the demonic calamity."
Wenxian Zhenzun nodded, "I know a little about this matter, but... it is ultimately an unorthodox path!"
The last five words perfectly showcase the superiority complex of cultivators.
When we arrived at the entrance, several large data platforms had already appeared.
Some large computing units have been prepared, but only three are top-of-the-line.
There's no way around it; this kind of thing can't be manufactured overnight.
The whereabouts of any group must be recorded at the federal level and monitored in real time.
Of the three groups, only one was new, and the other two were relatively new—they had just been dismantled, and the related projects came to a standstill!
This shows that the Federation really went to great lengths to please them.
The federal government did not mention the value of the computing unit, but later reports indicated it exceeded one trillion!
In short, it was given away for free, but some technical experts wanted to meet and demonstrate it.
However, Dorgon refused without hesitation, saying, "If this is a free gift, then name your price!"
The Federation dared not speak again. This was originally a test they were trying to gain an advantage, but unfortunately, all their attempts were in vain.
Faced with this old-model regimental-class ship, they dared not harbor any dissatisfaction.
Over the past hundred years, the Federation has made significant progress in technology, so its courage should have improved somewhat.
Indeed, a few individuals have suggested that we try to engage the Digital Phantom's squadron-class ships.
After all, it has been more than a hundred years since we last met. The Federation of today is no longer the same Federation of the past.
However, every single person who made such a suggestion was arrested by the federal government and investigated for their underlying motives.
Damn, you know it's been over a hundred years since we last met?
Do you know how far Digital Phantom can grow?
Expecting others to stop progress... please wake up. Besides being strong in combat, what else is Digital Phantom strong in?
Their research capabilities are far superior to those of the Three Kingdoms. Do you really think that artificial intelligence is just hype?
Our Federation has improved, and Digital Phantom will only improve even faster. Let's not be too wishful, okay?
What? There are still people who disagree? Then let me ask you this: Does the Federation dare to say that Asura will cease to exist?
So stop making a fuss, the federal government can't afford to gamble, and it can't afford to lose!
Dogan accepted the three sets of computing units without any pressure: the team's work for the Federation was worth this!
These three units are so large that even a regimental-class ship cannot fit them, but that's not a problem; releasing one more sub-nest will suffice.
The sudden appearance of the sub-nests did not cause much of a stir; people had become numb to the various tactics employed by Digital Phantom.
Moreover, after so many years of fighting, the Federation has also captured two relatively intact sub-nests.
Anyway, if someone else did this, it would be unbelievable, but for Digital Phantom, it's just normal.
Next, the Digital Phantom will return. The Empire has sent two division-class ships to greet it on the Federation side of the passage.
The Empire's division-class ships have also increased in size many times over—the war philosophies of the three nations are not too far apart.
One of them, a division-class ship, was actually the command ship of the garrison channel war zone!
To reiterate, the digital phantom's return came too suddenly; the Empire was simply not prepared.
Regardless of the circumstances, the command ship must first sail to the Federation to pay tribute to the expeditionary warriors.
On the return journey, two Federation division-class ships followed—the Empire would not consider this an invasion.
Upon their arrival at the Empire, two Imperial legionary ships also rushed to the scene.
The Empire does have its own fleet of ships, but relations between the two countries have improved, so there is no need to station them here under normal circumstances.
But the logic is that welcoming the Warriors back should be more grand than the Federation's celebration, right?
Moreover, the soldiers of the Empire spoke more casually when communicating with the Digital Phantom—after all, they were one of their own!
A captain said, "Marshal Xiao heard that his comrades have returned and is on his way. Please wait a moment!"
"Marshal Xiao..." Duo Gan was speechless.
She was somewhat relieved to learn that Xiao Moshan was unharmed; at least she had somewhere to inquire about news of her old friend.
But what the hell is this "Marshal Xiao"? When the hell did he become a marshal?
However, the team had already planned out the relevant procedures for the return, so this slight change is unlikely to affect the plan.
Moreover, there are many cultivators from the Houde Realm on the warship, so it's best to be more discreet.
So she casually said, "We're heading to the Alliance Passage; just let him know."
Upon hearing this, the person on the other end was speechless for a moment, "Just a moment, will three days be alright?"
Dorgon's tone was calm. "I'm just informing you, not negotiating, understand?"
Although it's called an Alliance passage, the Empire is actually in direct confrontation with the Treefolk—this is one of the disgusting things the Alliance did back then.
Upon the arrival of the fleet in the passage, True Venerable Hanli was the first to react, "The other side... indeed has the aura of an alien race."
A Grand Master is indeed a Grand Master; even through a passageway, he can confirm the situation on the other side.
"Shall we stop here then?" Qu Jianlei said, looking at him. "Immortal Venerable may return to the Asura World!"
It was agreed long ago that each faction would choose a world to seek opportunities.
There are agreements in place for future communication, so there's no need to worry about losing contact.
Wenxian Zhenzun tentatively asked, "But there's also a human society on the other side. Can we go and check out the passage?"
During this period of time, many cultivators also gained a general understanding of the social background here.
The digital phantom wasn't specifically introduced, but who doesn't have two ears and some kind of consciousness?
Qu Jianlei gave him a speechless look. "Immortal Venerable, you must consider the cause and effect!"
The other party was subtly probing, since once they reached the other end of the passage, the coordinates of the Tree Clan's location would no longer be a secret.
Making such a request at this point might seem like crossing a line, but it's not quite that far off; it's good that it was stopped.
It's normal to have this feeling; it's just a desire to take more. Nobody's perfect, and this kind of probing isn't excessive.
What Qu Jianlei needed to do was simply to express his stance; it wasn't about offending anyone.
Of course, if the other party really holds a grudge about this, then that's another story altogether.
“Alright,” Wenxian Zhenzun smiled. He had come by taking advantage of Han Li’s opportunity, and by playing the good cop, he hadn’t gotten away with it for nothing.
The two Grand Venerables, along with their subordinate cultivators, directly broke through space and left.
"I'm a little envious of them," Jin Ge Zhenxian muttered. "That so-called mortal warship... isn't it a bit too slow?"
"Is your spiritual energy limitless?" Qu Jianlei was getting more and more adept at teasing him now.
"Let's wait a bit," said Minning Zhenzun, his mood having improved considerably.
With two rivals gone, I'm about to face a completely new, otherworldly realm—just thinking about it makes me happy.
Moreover, the departure of those two people is equivalent to the departure of two witnesses, so he no longer needs to worry about encountering man-made traps.
This wasn't him being overly cautious; the cultivation world was a vast and complex place, and one couldn't afford not to be vigilant!
Then, he added a friendly reminder, "Haven't you noticed that both human societies are worlds devoid of spirits?"
"Absolute Spirit?" Upon hearing this, True Immortal Jin Ge was immediately taken aback, then sensed it and exclaimed, "Holy crap!"
It wasn't that his perception was lacking, but rather that he simply hadn't thought about it in that way.
The Asura world is full of spiritual energy, so who would have thought that the neighboring human world would be devoid of it?
Since boarding the warship, the advance team has been traveling in space and has never landed anywhere.
Moreover, during this period, no one needs to use spiritual energy. Why would he be so busy sensing the state of spiritual energy?
It wasn't until this moment, after being reminded by someone, that he realized the situation, which was quite unexpected.
He looked at Qu Jianlei thoughtfully, "So, this is the reason why the Awakened System was born?"
Creating a cultivation system from scratch is extremely difficult; it not only needs to be logically consistent but also easy to implement in practice.
Logical consistency is simple, basically as difficult as creating a language, but practical mastery is also straightforward...
The difficulty of that is daunting.
“I don’t know either,” Qu Jianlei shook his head, “It’s probably the main reason.”
If the world of the Empire had produced spirit stones, the cultivators of that time... would never have been able to leave!
Since they have their own spirit stones, the people of the empire can naturally cultivate immortality, even if they may enjoy treatment similar to that of people in the lower realms, with a very low priority.
In any case, it is entirely not a problem for the empire to produce a lucky few who can cultivate.
Cultivators only utilize the cultivation resources of this world, and for a long time, the imperial cultivators were unable to plunder external resources.
Jin Ge Zhenxian also understood this, so he gave Qu Jianlei a deep look and said, "You... really have it tough!"
Three days later, a division-class ship arrived, and Xiao Moshan's voice came through the transmitter, "Lord Duogan, the boss is back?"
Jin Ge Zhenxian carefully sensed it first, "There is no danger, but this Golden Core cultivator... won't live much longer."
"Let's talk on board," Dogan said calmly, "Marshal Xiao!"
"Where is there any marshal?" Xiao Moshan gave a wry smile and slipped into the warship.
