Chapter 395: Chapter 395 Preparations Before Establishing the Gaia Node

“`

He recounted his current situation in detail to his homeroom teacher, Jin Sisi. At first, her expression was normal, but as she heard him mention the nearing awakening of the plane’s will and the beginning swell of the Element Tides, her face changed. However, she did not interrupt him and waited until he finished speaking before she said,

“Tell me what you need.”

But as soon as she finished speaking, she shook her head and said,

“No, even with my support, you might not succeed. Contact Colonel Xie Yufei, cooperate with the military—specifically, with the Yan Huang Fifth War Zone.”

“The Yan Huang Fifth War Zone? Not the Furious Flame Battalion?”

She looked at him with a peculiar expression and said,

“How much strength can the Furious Flame Battalion have? Do you realize what your discovery means? Humans are currently attempting to conquer the Totem Civilization along with the Nightmare World and the Spirit Realm, and so far, none of the three Divine Realm civilizations have established any invasion nodes. All parties haven’t even made it through the door, and your discovery is an unprecedented opportunity. Should it succeed, we will have a significant advantage. This isn’t just about the rewards you will get. It’s a major step forward for human civilization.”

She took a deep breath, her golden pupils fixed on Lin Xiao as she spoke earnestly,

“If we can successfully establish a Gaia Node, our civilization will have an absolute advantage in the competition against the other two Divine Realm civilizations. Should we eventually succeed in conquering and fully occupying this Crystal Wall Universe, and if Gaia Will can successfully consume the will of this Crystal Wall, you will be credited with the primary achievement.”

Perhaps it was an illusion, but he thought he saw a hint of envy in her eyes:

“Do you know what this primary achievement means? It’s an opportunity that even those with Powerful Divine Power would envy, desire, and pursue tirelessly.”

Linxiao immediately understood what kind of opportunity she was referring to. The only chance that Powerful Divine Power would tirelessly pursue was the opportunity to ascend to great divine power. For those with Powerful Divine Power, this was the ultimate aspiration.

To put it simply, if Gaia Will could successfully consume the Totem Civilization, the whole Human Main World would be significantly strengthened. Simultaneously, new instances of great divinity might emerge. As the one credited with the primary achievement, he might possibly gain a God Level.

Of course, that’s just a possibility, not a certainty.

Whether he would get it depended on the benefits Gaia Will garnered from consuming the Totem Civilization. If the consumption led to the birth of several God Levels, then, as the pioneer of this achievement, he would likely receive one. However, if there were only one or two new God Levels spawned from the conquest of the civilization, it would not suffice for him to receive a new God Level.

But one thing was for certain: regardless of the number of God Levels created, even if only one new God Level could be formed, his primary achievement would bring him unimaginable, enormous benefits.

“Contact Xie Yufei. Her father is the commander of the Yan Huang Number Five Super War Fortress, a powerful entity of God Level nineteen, precisely the kind of being that needs this opportunity the most. Report this news upwards. Even though they won’t get the primary achievement, given the comprehensive strength of China’s Fifth War Zone, they are qualified to take charge of this battlefield, as well as to support you.”

She paused and then continued,

“If this news gets out, countless powerful figures will go crazy for it. As the first to discover and release the news, you hold absolute initiative.”

“The totem civilization, being coveted by Gaia, Nightmare, and Spirit civilizations alike, must have an enormously rich foundation. If it is fully conquered, the new God Levels that the Human Main World might gain could number two or three, or even more. The interests involved are beyond your imagination. You need to seek more allies for support.”

Linxiao was silent. Hearing Jin Sisi speak like this, he understood that he had made the right and smart decision by confiding in his homeroom teacher.

He definitely couldn’t handle this on his own. Only by uniting with more powerful forces could he make it work.

After all, the credit for the primary achievement was secure with him. Sharing the rest with other powerful entities meant sharing the pressure and currying favor.

This wasn’t just any favor; it was a favor that stood a good chance of enabling these powerful beings to ascend to great divine power—an opportunity that was unprecedented, with perhaps only a handful of occurrences in the entire history of human divine civilization.

A favor could be given to the commander of Yan Huang’s Fifth War Zone, Xie Yufei’s father…

To be honest, it was quite a surprise to find out her father was such an important figure. Among the four major human power groups, there were only a few of the super war fortresses located in subspace, each one a colossus in its own right and amply qualified to have a piece of this pie.

As for another favor, that naturally goes to Radiance. As the human apex superpower, Radiance’s influence isn’t just because it harbors a great divine power. Beyond the principal of the school, Radiance itself possesses tremendous strength; just how many powerful divine powers they have is unknown, and they are, of course, desperately eager for this opportunity.

As a member of Radiance, the benefits should naturally not be shared with outsiders.

But at present, he wasn’t in a position to speak directly with the high echelons of Radiance—only perhaps with principals of departments like the Shining High School Department at most. He couldn’t conversation directly with the higher-ups of Radiance—this had to be relayed through Jin Sisi, his homeroom teacher.

Unfortunately, she was currently only a weak divine power at God Level seven, far from powerful divine power, and supposed to be disconnected from this opportunity.

Linxiao’s own family was the same—whether his parents or his entire clan, they were too weak to swallow such a vast amount of benefits. They would only get to nibble at the scraps.

Communicating with Xie Yufei through military channels, her projection appeared before him, clad in a form-fitting military uniform that accentuated her shapely figure. Her beautiful eyes swept over Linxiao and Jin Sisi, and she asked curiously,

“Lieutenant Linxiao, what do you need from me?”

Linxiao nodded gravely and said earnestly,

“`

“I have a treasure that allows me to communicate with my incarnation in real-time. My incarnation has now discovered……I lack the strength now, and it would be a pity to waste such an important opportunity, and I….”

As he spoke earnestly, Xie Yufei’s rosy lips parted slightly in surprise, and her expression became increasingly serious. Suddenly, her figure swayed, and she reached out, saying:

“Stop talking for a moment, wait for me to come over.”

Seconds later, a golden mist appeared out of nowhere in the room, quickly expanding into a curvaceous humanoid outline. It soon solidified, and Xie Yufei’s spirited and beautiful face appeared before him.

At that moment, her expression was very serious. She retrieved a delicate golden disc from behind her and threw it above her head, casting a golden light that enveloped the entire room.

“You can talk now.”

Lin Xiao vaguely noticed that her tone was a bit hurried, somewhat excited.

“I cannot monopolize this opportunity. Once the news breaks, it will inevitably attract countless powers vying for it, leading to unforeseeable variables. Therefore, after thinking it over, I’ve decided to proactively draw several powerful forces into the game.”

He looked at Xie Yufei and said seriously:

“I have often been under your care, sister. The class teacher said that your father has an extraordinary identity, so after thinking about it, I contacted you first.”

At this point, Xie Yufei’s eyes sparkled with excitement as she gazed at Lin Xiao, her gaze softening. She suddenly reached out and caressed his cheek, saying:

“You have a conscience, not letting your sister’s care be in vain. I really like your thoughtfulness, and my father will like it too.”

After looking at him seriously for a moment, she suddenly leaned down and gently kissed his cheek. A pleasing fragrance wafted over, and she looked directly into his eyes. Her lively gaze held a meaning that made his heart flutter and beat faster. She whispered:

“Don’t spread this news, and tell me if you need anything. I need to go and prepare now.”

After speaking again, she leaned down and kissed him, then her incarnation vanished into light.

It wasn’t until her figure completely disappeared that he came back to his senses, a bit stunned, and saw Jin Sisi standing on the side, arms crossed and seemingly displeased.

Seeing him come to, she said directly:

“I’m going to see a member of the Supreme Divine Council of Radiance. Wait for news. If you have a channel, you can also contact your girlfriend.”

After saying this, her figure flashed and disappeared, leaving Lin Xiao feeling somewhat awkward—he could tell she was a bit angry.

But his scattered thoughts quickly regrouped, focusing on a term she had mentioned—Supreme Divine Council.

This council was the highest level of the superpower Radiance. It was widely known that the leader of Radiance was the first human to wield the great divine power, yet such an august being couldn’t possibly manage Radiance all the time, leading to the establishment of the Supreme Divine Council, Radiance’s highest decision-making body. Any true god with enough powerful divine power within Radiance automatically entered the Supreme Divine Council.

To get Radiance to commit to an action fully, it was essential to have the Supreme Divine Council’s support.

Of course, for this occasion, they could inevitably obtain the support of the Supreme Divine Council. A potential sublime divinity could surely gain the Supreme Divine Council’s full backing, but one must still go through the proper procedures.

Half an hour later, while Lin Xiao was pondering in his room about how to prepare for his incarnation, he suddenly felt a powerful and suffocating dread descend upon him. The oppressive might flashed by instantaneously, and bits of starlight converged to form an eye that looked at Lin Xiao. After a while, Xie Yufei’s incarnation appeared again. Without asking, it was evident that this was her father, the commander of China’s Fifth War Zone.

He snapped his legs together in a military salute:

“Greetings, Commander. Yan Huang No.5 War Zone, First Expeditionary Army Third Division’s Furious Flame Battalion, Lieutenant Lin Xiao!”

The starry eye gazed at him silently, then twisted into the visage of a broad-faced, square-jawed middle-aged man with an imposing presence. He raised a hand and returned the salute, his voice grave:

“Lieutenant Lin Xiao, I’m Xie Tianyan. Your intelligence is crucial. Rewards will follow upon its confirmation. In the meantime, the war zone will cooperate with you. Just state what you need.”

Xie Yufei’s father, Xie Tianyan, like all military men, disliked unnecessary talk and went straight to the point.

Lin Xiao appreciated this approach and spoke plainly:

“The plane will’s awakening is currently underway in that world, with Element Tides just beginning to surge. The plane already hosts a ruling church, and once the plane will awakens sufficiently to lift the restrictions, a Concept God will definitely be born. My current power in that world is not yet strong enough. I need sufficient military force and trump cards to contend with the birth of a Concept God.”

He paused briefly before adding:

“Also, I can communicate…”
