Building a sect from scratch.

Chapter 556 If I'm Going to Be One, I'll Be the King of Curly-Haired Baboons
Civilization is like a fish stranded on a beach after the tide comes in; it cannot be saved by external forces alone.

When the tide rises again, the civilization that seized the opportunity will be reborn.

"We are forbidden from approaching civilization with a savior mentality. This is a principle, and more importantly, a bottom line."

As a "collaborator," Nuwa explained as much as possible.

“And the ‘Chosen Ones’ are like third parties who happen to see someone digging a hole on the beach in the ocean waves. They learn this skill and try to use it to help other stranded civilizations continue when they are stranded—at least to allow them to survive until the next high tide.”

Civilizations can survive outside their original planet and even have the ability to pioneer new lands; this is what is meant by "rising tide."

A proactive "high tide".

“Our race was destroyed long ago in our original universe. According to the concepts on Earth, we have been wandering ever since.”

Fang Xianyu pondered for a moment, then suddenly asked a completely unrelated question: "But on Earth, our Chinese nation also has many legends about Nuwa, Yinglong, the Yellow Emperor and the Yan Emperor, and the Queen Mother of the West. If these stories exist because you once visited Earth, does that mean that our Chinese civilization on Earth was not born independently, but exists and continues because of you?"

“Of course not,” Nuwa smiled and said, “Actually, ‘Nuwa’ is not my name, but rather the name of your Chinese ancestor on Earth. Whether it’s Nuwa, the Yellow Emperor and the Yan Emperor, or any other legends or stories, some are fictional, while others are based on real people. The reason I am called ‘Nuwa’ is because it was the Nuwa of your Chinese nation who gave me this name.”

"You should know that the Guixu Realm is a secondary universe, and it exists in relation to the Blue Star Universe. I met the real Nuwa thousands of years ago, and I even visited the Blue Star Universe. She was truly a remarkable ruler."

"It was because of her that we decided to protect this originally chaotic secondary universe, namely the Guixu Realm, and then add a little bit of 'new stuff' to both sides through the 'Chosen One'."

"Even if we don't do this, when you truly enter the C-level civilization, you will discover many secondary universes. Usually there are dozens, some may be thousands, and some... there may be none at all, depending on the form in which the universe exists."

"What I did was to skirt the law and make you discover each other 'accidentally' quickly. Of course, the risks involved were very high, mainly on our side, since the League Law doesn't apply to you right now."

As she spoke, Nuwa winked, her expression lighthearted.

Fang Xianyu finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Well then, thank you. In any case, the Guixu Realm or the Blue Star Realm have both benefited from you, and I can't deny that."

Nuwa waved her hand: "You're welcome. We're not philanthropists. The contract stipulates joint development of the Twenty-Eight Mansions planets. You can't go back on your word, or we'll lose everything!"

Now that both sides have reached a tacit understanding, the probing and negotiations have come to an end.

Fang Xianyu chose to start complaining: "By the way, do you know about the matter of Daoist Gu Gu?"

“I know. When their pioneering team contacted me, they mentioned that there was no need to worry. We have already sent people to search for it. Without sufficient resources and energy, it couldn’t have gone too far. We can only say that it is hiding somewhere.”

In addition, Nuwa answered many mysteries one by one.

For example, the Nine Infant Mansion that Gu Gu Dao Ren relied on was originally a creature from the original civilization of the Guixu Realm.

What happens in the main universe, when mapped onto the secondary universe, will create new histories.

How exactly did that secondary universe come about?

Fang Xianyu was somewhat puzzled.

I always felt that the concept of "secondary universe" was too fantastical and didn't seem like a natural phenomenon at all.

"Actually, it's a natural product... The Blue Star civilization has a concept called 'cosmic expansion.' According to your previous predictions, the expansion of the universe should be gradually decreasing in speed, but in fact, the result you calculated is that the universe is in a state of accelerated expansion."

"Isn't that amazing? And you've even assumed an unknown energy, called 'dark energy,' to explain the accelerated expansion..."

"The accelerated expansion is actually due to the continuous splitting of secondary universes from the Blue Star universe, which drives the expansion of the main universe. The more secondary universes there are, the faster the expansion speed. Solving this problem is quite simple. Once the Blue Star civilization fully reaches the C-level civilization rating, the Blue Star universe will enter a relatively mature and stable state, and the splitting of secondary universes will cease, thus alleviating the accelerated expansion."

"Of course, even with the Alliance's current technological level, it cannot solve the problem of cosmic expansion, but there's no need to worry. At least I haven't heard of any civilization above level C being destroyed because of cosmic expansion..."

"It's like a flood. If a flood submerges the land, then find a new land. If you can't bear to leave the original place, then you can only choose to spend a huge amount of money to 'reclaim land from the sea'. In short, there are many solutions. There's no need to worry about things billions of years from now—even the Alliance hasn't existed for that long."

……

Fang Xianyu was reassured by his conversation with "Nuwa".

At least she doesn't have to worry about doing something useless.

Nuwa made it clear that she would not dispute the sovereignty of the Guixu Realm—the Alliance Law is not just for show, and she has no intention of dominating such a backward universe.

The truth may be harsh, but it's true that no sane human would ever dream of becoming the king of curly-haired baboons. So, Fang Xianyu's position as the king of curly-haired baboons is, for the time being, relatively secure.

Moreover, it will be difficult for the Guixu Realm to independently take center stage in the universe in the short term. Even if it relies on the main universe of Blue Star, it will take several decades.

Before that, what she needed to do was to gain a foothold in the Guixu Realm and become the true "decision-maker" of the Guixu Realm.

"Has everything been settled with Du Guangguo?"

After bidding farewell to Nuwa and the others, Fang Xianyu immediately contacted Elder Lu Ying, whom he had sent to negotiate with the Du Guang Kingdom.

Professional matters should be handled by professionals. Diplomatic negotiations can be handled by the talent sent by China, since China's interests are aligned with our own.

Elder Lu Ying replied almost instantly: "The result of the two talks was that they wanted to seize it by force..."

This result is quite in line with the logic of the demon race, since strength is paramount!
but……

"Based on strength? How exactly do you mean by 'based on strength'?"

Fang Xianyu pressed for more information.

"We agreed on a timeframe, and we'll take over as much territory as we can conquer. However, I mentioned that we should try to minimize population loss. The Duguang Kingdom can only drive out its population, while our Taiyin Sect will take in and provide assistance."

"They actually agreed to this?"

Fang Xianyu was quite surprised.

The demon race and humans are practically sworn enemies, so agreeing to merely drive them away is indeed a great show of respect to the Taiyin Sect.

Elder Lu Ying replied, "I had hinted that this method might slow down the Taiyin Sect's speed in seizing territory, which is why they agreed. The effort required for purely military activities and rescue military activities is definitely different."

"While that makes sense, but... no, it's alright. You've done a good job. We can proceed with further negotiations. It would be best to delay for a couple more days, until more account registrations are opened and more new players break through level 10 and leave Penglai Island. That would increase our chances of winning."

After giving a few instructions, Fang Xianyu, who was sitting at her desk, couldn't help but laugh out loud.

These demons, with their incredibly straightforward thinking, truly know nothing about the players.

They probably still think the Taiyin Sect only has tens of thousands of disciples!
Thinking of this, she glanced at the number of people online in real time: 101125.

Although it's currently the most active time for players in the evening, 100,000 online users is still an astonishing number. Don't forget, even if you include the new accounts that have been registered every day in the past few days, the total number of accounts in "Ten Continents Chronicles" is still less than 300,000!
