Building a sect from scratch.

Chapter 516 The Pioneer Team

Just when Baili Shuang thought her guess had shocked the two of them, she heard that their focus was completely unexpected:
"So you're the chosen one!"

Baili Shuang opened her mouth, feeling somewhat helpless.

Yin Quan cupped his hands again and said with a smile, "I thought you would send someone to negotiate first, but I didn't expect you to come in person... To be honest, since you have guessed some things, we, the Tianji Sect, no, actually should be the third branch of the Tianji Pioneer Group, the pioneering center of the 41st star system, don't need to hide anything anymore."

Fang Xianyu, disguised as Baili Shuang, felt dizzy. She waved her hand, took a deep breath, and said, "Wait a minute, wait a minute, let me catch my breath..."

What was supposed to be a time-traveling, immortal cultivation, overpowered protagonist story turned into a fourth natural disaster salvation story, and now it's suddenly switched to a sci-fi channel?!

Is this right!?

So what is the point of all the hard work I put into supporting China in developing spiritual technology and researching various data from other worlds?
Am I diligent? Or am I good at doing useless work?

“First of all,” Baili Shuang still found it hard to accept, she stopped and asked, “It sounds like the third branch of the Heavenly Mystery Pioneer Group… that is, the Heavenly Mystery Sect… doesn’t seem to be a product of the Guixu Realm civilization. So you two probably aren’t from the Guixu Realm either, are you?”

Yin Quan replied, "No, no, no, we are indeed from the Guixu Realm. According to the concept of the Blue Star Civilization, we can be considered human. However, because we have signed a contract and joined the Pioneer Group, my position is the leader of the seventh group of the third branch of the Pioneer Group, and my junior sister is also in the seventh group. According to the contract, even if we are from the Guixu Realm, those of us who have joined the Pioneer Group and signed a contract cannot interfere too much with the development process of our birthplace civilization, that is, the Guixu Realm civilization."

"Of course, the pioneering group does not belong to the Guixu Realm civilization. We belong to the pioneering center of the 41st star system and have a more precise data name, which is not easy to express in the Central Continent language... In short, the Tianji Sect is indeed backed by a civilization from outside this world."

Baili Shuang pointed to herself in confusion: "What about me? Don't I count as interfering in the development of the Guixu Realm civilization?"

Yin Yang chimed in, "Of course not. You, and the Blue Star civilization itself, both depend on the Guixu civilization for their existence."

"Wait a minute, I still don't understand. I need a reasonable explanation,"

Baili Shuang—also known as Fang Xianyu—felt she could hardly breathe: "I feel like I've been tricked... And who is that Taiyi God? Is he one of yours too? But why did the Taiyi Sect split into three, and why are the other two completely different from you?"

Yin Yang said expressionlessly, "In fact, we have no obligation to explain this to you."

Yin Quan smiled and explained, "Don't mind what my junior sister said. This kind of scene has happened many times before. We have explained it to countless chosen ones, so it's just a bit tiring for us... Of course, I still think you are the most special one."

"However, the questions you asked are actually quite easy to explain. Taiyi Shangshen is indeed one of our unofficial staff members and also one of the insiders. But because he participated in the investment of the Guixu Realm in his personal capacity, he became more actively involved in the development of civilization in this world... Normally, this is a gray area of ​​behavior."

"Of course, it is precisely because he is too actively involved that he is trapped. Unless he gives up his sunk costs in the early stage and breaks away from the body of 'Taiyi God,' he can only be in a semi-automatic response state and cannot come and go as freely as we can. This is also one of the reasons why he cannot truly intervene in the repeated 'reincarnations' of the Guixu Realm."

Baili Shuang closed her eyes, trying her best to calm the anger in her heart: "So, the Guixu Realm is just an endless cycle of reincarnation? A... false, non-existent world!?"

"No, of course not. The Realm of Return to Nothingness truly exists; otherwise, we wouldn't need to establish a presence in this world. As for the reincarnation you mentioned... let's just call it 'reincarnation' for now. In short, the so-called 'reincarnation' is not fake; it's a kind of 'calculation' that has actually happened but hasn't yet resulted in any real-world consequences."

"Including now?" "Including now."

Wearing a disguise, Fang Xianyu was almost on the verge of losing her composure: "Doesn't that still mean it's just a fake simulation!"

“I know this is a bit hard to understand,” Yin Quan said sincerely, his attitude becoming more amiable. He tried to use simple examples to describe it: “According to the explanation of the Blue Star civilization, the concept of time is something that people created themselves—this statement is not wrong. But under normal circumstances, the Blue Star civilization is unable to change or calculate reality, while we can.”

"To give an example, without using super-energy factors, that is, spiritual energy, if you want to eat an orange now, all you need to do is go back in time to buy an orange and bring it here. However, according to the concept of Earth civilization, it is impossible to buy an orange in the past if you want to eat it in the 'present'. But we can..."

"So, in other words, the so-called 'reincarnation,' no matter how many times it happens, is based on the 'present' and the oranges we bought in the 'past.' It's just that those attempts to buy oranges all failed. Some oranges rotted, some were lost, and some were simply not bought at all. So, it still couldn't lead to the result of eating oranges in the 'present,' and that's how your 'reincarnation' came about."

"So, strictly speaking, we are still in the process of 'buying oranges,' which is neither a false one nor an end result."

Fang Xianyu understood Yin Quan's explanation, but still couldn't accept the reality that a proper cultivation scenario had turned into a science fiction scenario: "If you have such abilities, wouldn't you be able to do whatever you want, and no matter how many times you try, you'll definitely get the result of 'eating oranges'?"

"First of all, we are not philanthropists,"

The speaker was Yin Yang, whose attitude was indifferent. Her tone was normal, which made her seem strange: "Buying oranges in the past based on 'present' needs is a very resource-intensive and energy-consuming thing. We won't do it unless it's necessary or if we can't get a return."

Fang Xianyu gradually calmed down and even had the energy to joke: "I thought you were some kind of interstellar charity organization—at least that's the impression you gave me."

Yin Quan shrugged slightly and joked, "I thought the name 'Pioneering Corps' sounded more like an illegal raiding organization."

Yin Yang then said in a serious tone, "According to the concepts of Blue Star civilization, we should be considered an investment organization... However, the 'buying oranges' was not done by us. We are just an observation post to monitor the progress of the investment projects. As for the 'buying oranges'... it was done by another private individual team. You should be very familiar with one of the main leaders. Her name and code name is... 'Nuwa'."

"Nuwa..."

Fang Xianyu murmured the name, overwhelmed with emotion.

Whether on Earth or in the Ruins of Guixu, Nuwa is an extremely special being.

She then pressed on, asking, "And what about the 'Chosen One'?"

Yin Yang replied, "It's the 'oranges' I bought from Nuwa! I bought a whole bunch, and we're trying them out one by one to see which one will work!"

Fang Xianyu could understand the analogy, but what she didn't quite understand was...

Why did Nuwa "buy oranges"?
