Chapter 446 An Unparalleled Mystery! A Terrifying Miasma (Two Chapters Combined, Please Follow for More)
"Jiang Ye, what's wrong?" Qi Tian asked, puzzled.

"Alliance Leader, take a look at Blue Star now," Jiang Ye said.

Upon hearing this, Qi Tian immediately released his divine sense. As a genuine third-tier demigod, his divine sense covered a much wider area than Jiang Ye's.

In an instant, a vast divine thought spread towards Blue Star.

next second.

"Ok?"

"How is this possible?" Qi Tian's expression changed slightly. His divine sense couldn't even cover the entire Blue Star?
It should be noted that this is a third-order demigod.

He can see through everything in the world with a single thought; no corner can escape his eyes.

But the Blue Star of today is so vast that it feels somewhat unfamiliar to him!

However, Qi Tian was, after all, a powerful figure standing at the top of Blue Star, and he quickly realized what was happening.

"Blue Star has grown bigger." Qi Tian looked incredulous: "Ten times bigger?"

“Yes.” Jiang Ye had already realized this as well.

"It looks like it."

"Blue Star has really advanced to a Level 1 civilization." Jiang Ye smiled. He knew very well that if it were just an advancement to a Level 0.8 or 0.9 civilization, there wouldn't be such a big change.

It must be said that the planet's ascension is incredibly wondrous.

They were completely unaware of such drastic environmental changes.

"The landscape of Earth has expanded tenfold."

"No wonder the power of heaven and earth has become much denser," Qi Tian exclaimed. "Even the air has become much clearer."

The expansion of a planet is not just about territorial growth.

More importantly, there are more resources and more opportunities!
Jiang Ye also understood this principle.

According to the records in "Civilization Collection".

“Newly promoted Level 1 civilizations usually present many opportunities.” Jiang Ye’s heart stirred, and he immediately said, “Alliance Leader, I’ll go out and take a look.”

“I’ll go with you,” Qi Tian said.

Jiang Ye nodded slightly, and then the two of them disappeared into the main hall at the same time.

call!call!
Two figures streaked across the sky and landed atop a ten-thousand-meter-high mountain.

Jiang and Ye were incredibly fast. Even though Blue Star had expanded tenfold, they only spent less than ten minutes taking in the entire global landscape.

"For months."

"The number of martial artists who have broken through to the first level has increased by tens of thousands." Qi Tian looked down at the world below: "The number of high-level experts who have broken through to the seventh level has increased by nearly a thousand."

"There are now dozens more experts at the ninth level of breakthrough."

"There are also two newly promoted demigods." Qi Tian's eyes were filled with joy.

It's only been a few months!
Such a big change has occurred.

In the past, he couldn't have imagined it at all.

However, Jiang Ye frowned deeply beside Qi Tian.

"Something's wrong."

"There are too few demigods." Jiang Ye's expression turned solemn. "There aren't many level nine experts either."

"Isn't this enough?" Qi Tian shook his head slightly upon hearing his words: "Jiang Ye, there's no need to be in such a hurry."

"You may not know this because it's your first time experiencing a civilizational struggle."

"In the period following the advancement of civilization, the number of powerful individuals will experience an explosive growth, and this is only the beginning," Qi Tian said.

He is very clear.

After the civilization advances, the next year or even several years will be a period of rapid growth.

Several years later, the number of demigods on Earth may reach more than twenty!

What Qi Tian didn't know was that Jiang Ye's expectations went far beyond that.

"Level One Civilization".

“Even at the initial stage of civilization, there should be over a hundred demigods.” Jiang Ye said in a low voice, “These past few months have seen the fastest growth, and it would be reasonable to add more than ten new demigods.”

"But right now, there are only two more?"

“This is completely unreasonable,” Jiang Ye said in a low voice.

Qi Tian was stunned.

He didn't own "The Collection of Civilizations," so these were things he was hearing about for the first time.

"but."

“The number of strong individuals is influenced by many factors, after all, some people may suppress their cultivation level.” Jiang Ye’s gaze was profound: “But even if we put that aside, we can still say that we are strong enough.”

"There is another important indicator of a first-level civilization."

“A divine-level opportunity location!” Jiang Ye said in a deep voice.

A divine opportunity belonging solely to Earth!

In the past, although Earth had many god-level opportunities, they all came from other civilizations, and the vast majority of them were demigods.

A first-level interstellar civilization will give birth to its own god-level opportunity sites, and these opportunity sites have the potential to lead to the gods!
"But."

“I haven’t seen any newly created god-level opportunity sites.” Jiang Ye’s gaze swept across the land: “Even demigod-level sites are extremely rare; the vast majority are only ninth-tier opportunity sites.”

This is not reasonable.

If we advance to a first-level star civilization, a god-level opportunity will inevitably emerge on Earth!
This has been proven by numerous cases and is beyond doubt.

But unfortunately, Earth doesn't have that.

"So you mean..."

"Blue Star failed to advance?" Qi Tian looked at Jiang Ye, his eyes filled with doubt.

"I don't know," Jiang Ye said, shaking his head.

Didn't get promoted?

But he clearly saw it that day: the will of the universe descended and the World Tree appeared.

All of this proves that the will of the universe has recognized the Blue Star civilization.

But why is this happening?

"It is indeed a bit strange."

“The current Blue Star is more like a civilization stuck at level 0.9.” Bai Gui’s voice echoed in Jiang Ye’s mind: “The will of the universe acknowledges it, but Blue Star’s status has not been promoted.”

"Rank?" Jiang Ye's gaze sharpened.

He knew that the position Bai Gui was referring to was the position of a planet.

The leap from a lower dimension to a higher dimension is called a promotion.

"No promotion in rank?" Jiang Ye's expression changed. Even Bai Gui said so, so it seemed that his feeling was correct.

Blue Star may not have been able to advance to a Level 1 civilization!
"How could this be?"

"Could it be because we haven't had enough opportunities to develop our civilization?" Jiang Ye asked, puzzled.

“Impossible.” Bai Gui shook his head: “One [Life-bearing Planet] should be enough for Blue Star to advance.”

Why does this happen?

Jiang Ye was completely baffled, and his face grew increasingly gloomy.

"Other factors could be at play."

"In my memory, there is no case of a Level 0.7 civilization directly advancing to Level 1 civilization," Bai Gui said helplessly.

Jiang Ye nodded; he did not blame Bai Gui.

Bai Gui, in the end, was merely a guardian spirit created at the end of the White Dragon Civilization, and there were many secrets she was unaware of.

"Fellow Daoist, there's no need for that."

Seeing Jiang Ye's expression, Qi Tian comforted him, "Even if Blue Star only advances to a level 0.9 civilization, it's enough for us."

"Why insist on a Level 1 civilization?" Qi Tian shook his head.

“Because of the Cangxu civilization.” Jiang Ye glanced at him.

"Cangxu?" Qi Tian's expression turned slightly serious.

“Only by advancing to a first-level star civilization can Blue Star have the right to choose a superior civilization.” Jiang Ye said in a low voice, “Otherwise, the Cangxu civilization can bring Blue Star under its wing without losing a single soldier.”

Upon hearing this, a strange light flashed in Qi Tian's eyes.

Jiang Ye's words clearly implied that if Blue Star fell into the hands of the Cangxu Civilization, its fate would be dire.

Although Qi Tian's knowledge of the Cangxu civilization was limited to the god [Thunder Ember], he knew nothing about this civilization.

As for bringing Blue Star under the control of the Cangxu Civilization?

No matter what, the Cangxu Civilization is a Level Two Civilization. Wouldn't it be a good thing for Blue Star to be brought under its control? "Fellow Daoist."

"Do you perhaps have some grudge against the Cangxu Civilization?" Qi Tian asked with a puzzled expression.

"The Shadow Clan's mother nest was placed there by the Cangxu Civilization," Jiang Ye said calmly.

That's all.

It was like a bolt from the blue, striking directly into Qi Tian's mind and causing his expression to change drastically on the spot.

The Shadow Clan's Mother Nest, the Cangxu Civilization?
Qi Tian had never connected the two before. In the past, Blue Star's understanding of the Cangxu civilization was limited to places like the Star Boundary Sea.

Even fragmented rumors have instilled greater awe in the powerful beings of Earth towards that civilization.

But now, Jiang Ye is telling him that the Shadow Clan's mother nest is related to the Cangxu civilization?

"Fellow Daoist, are you sure?" Qi Tian couldn't help but ask.

This is no joke.

It concerns the lives and deaths of hundreds of billions of people on Earth!

“Absolutely certain.” Jiang Ye took a deep breath, his expression equally serious.

This is not hearsay.

Jiang Ye has now come into contact with many interstellar civilizations, including no less than a hundred Level 1 civilizations. After digesting their cultivation insights, Jiang Ye realized this matter.

All civilizations within the Cangxu faction.

They were all shrouded in a huge shadow.

Shadow Calamity!

"Cangxu Civilization".

"We will use the method of raising Gu poison to select the geniuses of our civilizations." Jiang Ye's gaze was cold: "Even if hundreds of billions of people die, we will not hesitate."

"This method is the Shadow Calamity."

“Although Blue Star is not within the territory of the Cangxu Civilization, it has still been affected.” Jiang Ye’s gaze was icy: “If it is completely brought under their control, there will truly be no peace.”

The Shadow Clan is definitely more than just a demigod.

The Cangxu civilization probably also controls the Shadow Clan, who are at the level of gods!
Otherwise, it wouldn't be able to be used to select geniuses from first-level civilizations.

"How could this be?"

Qi Tian was shocked: "How many worlds would be devastated, how many people would die in the Shadow Calamity?"

"Humph."

"Perhaps for the Cangxu civilization," Jiang Ye sneered, "as long as a god can emerge, it would be worth sacrificing hundreds of billions of people."

In fact it is.

After all, it's rare for a god to appear among hundreds of billions or even trillions of people.

If a god could be cultivated in this way, it would be a huge win.

"Then do the civilizations under its command harbor no resentment?" Qi Tian asked in a low voice, still finding it unbelievable.

"The law of the jungle, where the strong prey on the weak, is the rule of the universe."

“How could a Level 2 civilization care about the thoughts of a weaker civilization?” Jiang Ye shook his head: “Besides, the Cangxu civilization is not without its defenses.”

"The Cangxu Civilization has five Guardian Commands, all of which are Level 1.9 civilizations."

"These five civilizations are not within the scope of Gu breeding; they are staunch followers of the Cangxu civilization."

"Below these five major civilizations, there are hundreds of other star civilizations of level 1.2 or above, all of which are allies of the Cangxu Civilization."

“The rest are the ones that the Cangxu civilization uses to raise Gu,” Jiang Ye said, shaking his head.

In other words.

Only civilizations below level 1.2 will be deployed to the Shadow Clan's Mother Nest.

Want to resist? The Cangxu Civilization doesn't even need to intervene; its numerous allies will take strong action to suppress them.

As for defecting to the enemy?

If they succeed, all will be well; if they fail, then they shall await the iron-fisted suppression of the Cangxu civilization.

"As for civilizations below level one."

"Whether it is completely annihilated or joins another civilization, it is of no consequence to the Cangxu Civilization." Jiang Ye sighed, "After all, every civilizational struggle gives birth to countless new civilizations."

"That's true." Qi Tian nodded slightly.

Like this race of civilizations.

At least 100,000 new civilizations have been born in the entire White Dragon Galaxy Cluster, and they will flourish in the coming years.

It can't be used up at all.

Under this model, the Cangxu civilization would not care about the life or death of civilizations below level one.

"No wonder."

“I had a feeling before that the governor from the Cangxu civilization was a bit strange.” Qi Tian’s expression darkened slightly: “He clearly took Chu Jingye as his disciple, but he completely ignored the many shadow calamities that broke out on Blue Star.”

“Even after His arrival, the Shadow Calamity became even more frequent.”

"Now it seems that this Shadow Clan's mother nest is indeed intricately connected with the Cangxu Civilization." Qi Tian's expression grew increasingly solemn.

According to Jiang Ye.

If Earth fails to advance to a Level 1 civilization, won't it fall completely into the clutches of the Cangxu civilization?

suddenly.

"Eno."

"You just said that only by advancing to a Level One civilization can one have the right to choose a higher-level civilization." Qi Tian seemed to have thought of something: "Could it be that you've already made contact with other Level Two civilizations?"

"good."

“The Huanglong Civilization is also a Level 2 civilization.” Jiang Ye’s gaze was profound. “But that civilization is too far away from Blue Star. Without a space tunnel, even if I make contact with it, it will probably be too late.”

Qi Tian frowned.

After going around in circles, we still come back to the topic of civilization advancement!
"Is there no other way besides advancing to the first level of civilization?" Qi Tian said in a low voice. He had broken through to the peak of the third-order demigod, which should have been a time of joy.

But now, Qi Tian felt a deep sense of powerlessness.

What is a peak third-order demigod compared to a second-level civilization?
"way."

Jiang Ye hesitated for a moment, but he actually had a backup plan.

As long as he activates the Radiant Dragon Token, he can immediately arrive at the Radiant Dragon Civilization.

But then?

Without a cosmic passageway, even a god could not traverse the universe and reach Earth across countless light-years.

Can't help but.

Jiang Ye recalled the thousand possible futures he had seen on the [Life Planet].

"Could it be that?"

"Could those future possibilities really become reality?" Jiang Ye's heart sank, and he felt a chill run from the soles of his feet to the top of his head.

Life was ravaged, and the blue planet was destroyed.

Could those scenes become reality?
"No!"

"There must be another way." Jiang Ye stared intently at the sky and earth, his expression growing increasingly grave.

suddenly.

"Level One Civilization".

"Why hasn't Blue Star advanced?" A strong question arose in Jiang Ye's mind: "The will of the universe has clearly recognized it, and the civilization has had enough opportunities."

Why didn't Earth successfully advance to the next level???

"What exactly is affecting it?" Jiang Ye's eyes were full of questions; he desperately wanted to get an answer.

He understands.

There must be a problem somewhere, in some process, or with some factor.

At that moment, Jiang Ye felt as if a layer of mist was obscuring his vision.

With his current limited perspective and knowledge, he simply cannot see through this fog and find the truth.

Not to mention Jiang Ye, even Bai Gui wouldn't understand.

Suddenly.

"There is."

"I have a plan." Jiang Ye's eyes suddenly flashed with intense light.
