Chapter 396: Secrets Buried in History

A gust of wind blew past, and the cave echoed.

A few leaves carrying sand drifted into the cave with the wind and landed on Chen Yiming and the giant beast.

Chen Yiming snapped out of his daze and saw that the giant beast, which had been twitching in pain, was snoring. Soon, the sound of its snoring completely drowned out the sound of the cave.

“It’s having a nightmare while in an illusion of sleep. If it doesn’t even have time to recover, the consciousness of the giant beast will collapse on its own soon.”

On second thought, if he rashly entered the interior of the huge mushroom, the situation would be completely different from when he positioned the space anchor inside the huge mushroom. The former would almost definitely alert the enemy.

“There are other similar worlds in this galaxy where the dark forest world is, and they were all invaded by the black tide. Now that I have the Space Anchor talent, can I try to investigate them quickly?”

Chen Yiming suddenly changed his mind. When the power left behind by the black tide in the dark forest world could not do anything to him, he, who had the space-manipulation ability, had become a character who could move about in the dark.

In the past, due to the mystery of the black tide, the humans, including Chen Yiming, were all in a passive position.

The enemy was in the dark and they were out in the open. This meant that they could only wait for the black tide to attack before thinking of a way to resolve the attack.

Now, after Chen Yiming destroyed the demon god, he didn’t dare to say that he could also destroy the huge mouth on the moon blockade, but it shouldn’t be a problem for him to hold it back.

In reality, the enemy was now in the open while he was in the dark. Chen Yiming only needed to use the imagery sent back by the space anchor to determine the time it would take for the black tide to launch another attack.

This way, even though the speed at which humans gathered their people to enter the spaceship was not fast, they still had a huge advantage.

“Not only that, but if I can deal with the forces left behind by the black tide in the other worlds around the dark forest world, I can also try to lead those worlds to launch a counterattack.”

At this thought, Chen Yiming’s brows relaxed.

“As long as the creatures at the fusion realm from the other worlds are not completely wiped out, and there are still survivors like the huge eye and the snow beast…”

“With my Space Anchor talent, wouldn’t I be able to buy more time for humans if I led the operation to break through the blockade and cause chaos in these worlds?”

In the end, humans would definitely have to escape from the blue planet. But when would they escape? How would they escape? Could they escape as victors?

Chen Yiming felt that he had become too arrogant. For some reason, he imagined a scene from Star Wars.

The dark forest world was invaded by the black tide, and had been disturbed greatly by him. However, the black tide could not do anything to him with their attacks.

Then, the human spaceship team set off for the new planet after making full preparations.

He continued to deal with the situation, cutting off the possibility that the black tide might chase them into deep space. Then, he quickly teleported to meet up with the human spaceships.

In fact, Chen Yiming was still thinking of subduing more terrifying creatures during the process. He wanted them to protect the fleet of human spaceships, just like the dire wolves’ leader.

“Although this plan is a little too idealistic, it’s not completely impossible. The premise is that I have to make good use of my Space Anchor talent to take advantage of the black tide and cause as much chaos as possible in the surrounding worlds.”

Chen Yiming walked out of the cave and looked up at the starry sky.

In outer space, the three glowing balls seemed to be motionless as they hung in the sky. They were completely different from the earth and moon on the blue planet.

“There’s an invisible barrier that envelops the entire dark forest world. What the naked eye sees might not be real. Not only does it prevent the terrifying creatures from breaking out of the encirclement, but it also prevents the communication between the worlds in this galaxy.”

If he wanted to cause trouble in the other worlds, Chen Yiming had to be able to quietly pass through the blockade.

Soon, he left the cave.

…

The dark many-legged mutant insect and the dark mud monster finally arrived at the surface of the sea around the war weapon after sneaking around for several hours.

The war weapon was currently silent. It was in the form of a floating island, covered by a layer of transparent energy. The surrounding black tentacles were completely retracted, as if it was really an ordinary island.

“To forcefully nurture a demon god in a short period of time, it still took at least 100 years of negative emotions that the black tide could harvest from the dark forest world.”

At this moment, the two dark creatures were feeling uneasy.

“The plan to borrow the power of the demon god to kill that human, then invade the other world with the power to destroy the world is not working out. The supreme will is still accumulating its power.”

Both of the dark creatures felt that the counterattack from the darkness had been delayed again because of the two of them and some unexpected factors.

Immediately after, the two dark creatures quickly reached a consensus.

“Chen Yiming is from a high-level cultivation civilization, whose bloodline has been making its rounds. The requirement for the transformation of his bloodline is to absorb the energy contained in the core of the world.”

A cruel system of rewards and punishments had been established in the black tide. The two dark creatures had used up a lot of resources for the siege, but they had failed. Under normal circumstances, their punishment would be to get turned into fertilizer on the spot.

The only possibility to lighten the blow was to bring back detailed information about how Chen Yiming, who was at the fusion realm, had killed a demon god that was at a higher level.

However, the two dark creatures had escaped long ago. The information they could bring back would not be much different from the information collected by the war weapon.

The rest depended on their luck. If they were lucky, they would not have to die. If they were unlucky, they would lose their lives.

Not long after, an opening appeared in the transparent barrier, and the two dark creatures turned into two streams of light and flew in.

At the last moment when the energy barrier closed, screams and the sound of struggling could be heard. Then, everything returned to normal.

…

On the blue planet, at the first industrial base, a spaceship that was more than 100 kilometers long was parked in the middle of Jiangnan province. It looked like a continuous mountain range.

Every day, a large number of people came up to the barricade set up by the soldiers to see it. No matter how many times they saw it, they were still shocked.

“I really can’t imagine it. A few years ago, humans couldn’t even conquer the sea. The sea was like a forbidden area.”

“Such a spaceship can actually accommodate the billions of people in the Daxia Kingdom.”

“Of course, there’s no need to squeeze all of us into one spaceship. Can’t we split into three groups and spread the risk out? If something happens to one spaceship, we can still transfer people to the other two.”

“There are only three spaceships in the Daxia Kingdom. The other countries have at least one spaceship each. The size might be different, but with such a huge fleet of spaceships, are we going to escape or to conquer the galaxy?”

…

With the integration of the black tide’s technology and the huge pressure brought about by the black tide, the spaceships were quickly built and the artificial environment was quickly installed. The most basic conditions for taking off were already met.

At this moment, in the middle of the ship, there was a control room that doubled as the main cannon room.

The entire space was filled with many elements from science fiction. Green lights lined up along the equipment, giving off a powerful visual impact.

In the middle was a platform with a groove. On the groove was a crystal cover, and inside was a strange stone. The strange stone was one of the five foundation bases.

Chen Yiming and a group of big shots walked along a long corridor past five security doors and arrived at the core of the spaceship.

After a general verified their identities, the door automatically opened and the group walked in.

“It’s only been a few days, but the foundation base has already started to slowly modify the surrounding cultivation environment,” Chen Yiming remarked as he felt the spiritual energy in the air that had been diluted countless times.

The only pity was that after leaving the dark forest world, or rather, the special spot for it in the world,

the ability of the foundation base to absorb and convert energy had decreased greatly, and it was no longer connected to the mysterious watery environment. Chen Yiming recalled the foundation base in the source of the spring in the devil’s den and could easily feel the difference.

Professor Huang, who was among the big shots, was wearing a slightly tattered shirt. His hair was also in a mess. He had not had enough rest for a long time, so his eyes were bloodshot, but he was very excited.

“Another foundation base, another foundation base. The humans really obtained another foundation base!”

Professor Huang’s gaze never left the stone in Chen Yiming’s hand.

For a worker who focused all his energy on scientific research, there was nothing more worth looking forward to than advancing the technology.

The foundation base came from a world that had a good cultivation environment. A part of the core of the world that had been split apart was definitely the best target for research and imitation for humans.

The surrounding big shots also had expectant gazes. They were all waiting to see what kind of changes would occur when the two foundation bases were placed together.

“If all the foundation bases were gathered and the core of the world was reformed, would this spaceship become a mobile cultivation world?”

Not only were there experts and professors from various fields who had such guesses, but the big shots had also come up with similar ideas. This was too wonderful and tempting.

However, in the end, it was just an ideal scenario. No one really thought that they could snatch away all the foundation bases. That was impossible. The dark forest world was a world occupied by the black tide.

Even though Chen Yiming seemed to have interrupted the black tide’s attack again and turned the impossible into reality, the mushroom that covered the sky didn’t take any further action.

However, from the top to the bottom, from the big shots to the experts and professors to countless martial arts experts, no one thought that the core of the dark forest world could be reformed on a human spaceship.

The entire room was silent. No one spoke.

The general, who had opened the door after verifying their identities, took a few steps towards the controller on the central platform and manually entered a complicated password. He then went through the verification of his iris and then his entire body.

The verification process was not over yet.

Everyone continued to wait quietly for more than half a minute. After the last verification from the control center, the crystal cover covering the strange stone in the middle of the platform automatically opened.

The crystal barrier was also a piece of black tide technology that humans had created recently. It had many functions like defense, surveillance, and so on.

“Should I just put the two foundation bases together? Or is there another way?”

Chen Yiming thought about how awkward it would be if nothing happened after they mobilized such a large number of people.

If he had known earlier, he would have communicated with the female spirit first. Although the other party was hiding in the ring, she should have already sensed that he had obtained another foundation base.

However, there was no movement from her, so there was a high chance that the other party did not care about the foundation base.

Chen Yiming sighed in his heart. “I’m afraid there’s really not much to be concerned with for the foundation base. The black tide didn’t dig out the core of the world after the invasion. Even for me, after I drained the essence energy accumulated by the foundation base, my interest in it has decreased greatly.”

“It takes a long time to accumulate the essence energy that can be converted into Skill Points. If I have the time, why don’t I rely on the space anchor to jump through space? Wouldn’t it be much easier to snatch more of such things?”

After obtaining the Space Anchor talent, he was extremely confident that if he faced a powerful enemy he was no match for, he could retreat and fight back after upgrading his talent.

If not for the fact that he had the blue planet, which was the headquarters of the humans, and had to be wary of the intense reaction of the black tide, he would have barged into the other worlds around the dark forest world openly.

However, it was the complete opposite of what Chen Yiming had thought.

The female spirit in the ring was furious at Chen Yiming for draining the essence energy from the foundation base. The pure energy from the core of the world was also very beneficial to her.

However, she was in a special situation. Her movements were severely restricted by the cage-like ring.

It had to be known that the female spirit had once interacted with the terrifying creatures in the dark forest world. She had always acted like a goddess. Not only was she high and mighty, but she also did not reveal her status or background.

Of course, she couldn’t let her secret be exposed so easily in front of Chen Yiming.

In essence, the female spirit was limited by her own situation and was extremely wary of everything in the outside world. She had always kept a powerful trump card.

If Chen Yiming had any ill intentions towards her, such as giving the ring and the female spirit to the black tide, she would kill him instantly.

Time passed slowly.

Chen Yiming snapped out of his thoughts and felt the expectant gazes on him.

“Sigh! Let’s leave it to fate. If the two stones don’t have any reaction, we can think about it later.”

He took a few steps to the platform where the foundation base was placed.

The hole on the surface of the foundation that was the source of the spring was just big enough for the other strange stone to be placed on it.

Chen Yiming couldn’t be bothered to study it further. He just combined the two foundation bases together.

One second.

Two seconds.

Time seemed to have slowed down, and the big shots became nervous. Everyone hoped for a good outcome.

Three seconds.

Just as everyone’s hearts tightened, thinking that the simple method of connecting them together was wrong, the two foundation bases lit up, and the blazing white light made it difficult to look straight at them. It drowned out the two strange stones and the entire room.

“What!”

“It’s glowing.”

“As expected, there are changes.”

Exclamations rang out in the room.

The big shots and Professor Huang were all willing to risk the damage to their eyes and tried to see what was going on through the gaps between their fingers.

This was especially true for Professor Huang. He felt that if he missed this moment, he would lose countless secrets that had been kept hidden. It would definitely be something he would regret for the rest of his life.

The blazing white light drowned out the entire room and did not end there. The light passed through the layers of obstacles and shot out of the spaceship, and was seen by the countless people who had come to see the spaceship.

“What’s that!”

“What happened!”

Countless people exclaimed.

Then, all the satellites on the entire blue planet focused their cameras on Jiangnan province. A dazzling light, like a small sun, burst out from the interior of the spaceship.

“Could there be a problem with the spaceship from the Daxia Kingdom?”

“At this juncture, nothing must happen!”

When the leaders of the various countries received the news, they immediately put down what they were doing and turned their gazes to the Daxia Kingdom.

In the end, even the satellite that had regained the appearance of the moon revealed the shadow of the huge mouth. It stared intently at the source of the light, vaguely showing its hunger.

Chen Yiming, who was drowned in the white light, automatically entered a state of super perception. A faint ripple spread out, blocking out the interference from the light.

He could clearly see the two foundation bases gradually fusing together, turning into a single, larger stone.

Not only had its shape turned into a short pillar, but there were also mysterious patterns forming inside. Part of the original array patterns had been destroyed, and part of it was connected by the mysterious patterns.

At the same time, a trace of a “living” consciousness appeared. It was as if the core of the world was not an inanimate object, but had its own independent will.

“Independent will? And after I transferred the core of the world from the dark forest world to the blue planet, will the reborn consciousness still be the same one as before?”

Chen Yiming thought of this problem.

“Perhaps it’s precisely because the complete core of the world has an independent will that it was once split into five and placed in five special locations in the dark forest world.”

“After all, the world-level formation that was set up essentially consumes the energy accumulated by the core to launch an attack. It’s definitely against its will.”

“However, the core had been divided into five parts. Even if it contradicts its will, it is severely weakened, causing it to have no choice but to be used by the terrifying creatures to break through the blockade.”

Everything that happened in front of him instantly revealed some of the secrets that had been swept into the dust of history.

“Previously, when I forcefully pulled out the foundation from the spring, the world seemed to have been shaken. However, there was nothing much after that. It was just a bluff.”

“This way, if I can gather the cores of many worlds together, what will happen?”

“Could the human spaceship fleet become a holy land for cultivation?”

Chen Yiming became arrogant again. His gaze had already passed beyond the dark forest world. The remaining three foundation bases were basically already within his reach. It was only a matter of time.

He looked towards the other worlds around the dark forest world.

Not long after.

The light quickly weakened and finally disappeared back into the new stone.

Regretful voices came from behind Chen Yiming.

“They really fused together. The foundation bases have become one.”

“This light is deliberately emitted by the foundation bases. It doesn’t cause any damage to the eyes, but I can’t see what it was like when they merged.”

Soon, there was also regretful news from the control center.

All kinds of surveillance equipment were used to record the scene exactly as it was seen by the naked eye. It was all white, and the scene of the two foundation bases fusing did not leave any imagery behind. There were not even any blurry images.

The big shots had no choice but to wait and see what Chen Yiming had to say.

In the end, because it involved the recovery of the world’s core, Chen Yiming casually brushed it off, indicating that his spiritual power was blocked by the light.

This was the truth. If not for the fact that Chen Yiming could enter a special state of super perception, he wouldn’t have been able to see the changes in the fusion of the foundation bases with his normal spiritual power.

There was another reason why he had chosen not to make it public.

The consciousness of the core of the world was equivalent to the will of the world. This was a will that was above the level of living creatures. He had yet to figure out how to deal with it.

For example, after the results were announced, if this consciousness was allowed to exist, would humans be willing to accept it? What would the attitude of this consciousness towards humans be?
