120: Chapter 120 Human Federation

[After you activated the Formation in your hand, nothing happened.]

[At least that's how it felt on Earth; you simply activated it, and then that was that.]

[You traveled to the Tianheng Continent through the Sacred Realm.]

[The first resident of the Tianheng Continent you encountered was an old man in grey robes. Oh, if your guess is correct, he should be Venerable Li Kun.]

[At this moment, Venerable Li Kun's face was full of terror, because he could feel that the Spiritual Root within his body was gone!]

[He looked up at the ball of light condensed in the sky. It wasn't just him; it should be said that at this moment, everyone on the Tianheng Continent, from the Mahayana True Immortals down to the common Mortals, was looking up at that ball of light.]

[Immediately after, just as you saw in the simulation with Prisoner 6, the sky opened up, and the sun began to split into nine, lifting the ball of light and launching it away.]

[Unlike that time with Prisoner 6, after the ball of light was launched, it did not scatter and burst into brilliant meteors in the sky, but instead stayed tightly bound together and shot off at an angle.]

[The nine scattered suns did not begin to revolve around the Tianheng Continent either; instead, they condensed back together and once again hung suspended above the Tianheng Continent.]

[It was as if nothing had happened at all.]

[You waited for a long time, but still, nothing happened.]

[This was the second year of your simulation.]

[In these two years, you displayed powerful Cultivation that intimidated the people of the Tianheng Continent. Even though some knew that the Sacred Realm was an Inner World, no one dared to covet it.]

[You also set up a Formation to make the spiritual energy within the Sacred Realm abundant, and some old Martial Artists who had been stuck at the Martial Saint Realm within the Sacred Realm thus achieved a Breakthrough to the Martial God Realm.]

[You stipulated that Martial Artists who reached the Grandmaster Realm on Earth could enter the Sacred Realm to Cultivate, and Martial Artists who reached the Martial God Realm in the Sacred Realm could enter the Tianheng Continent to venture out.]

[Everything was developing in a good direction.]

[Until the appearance of that thing.]

[That thing was first discovered outside the orbit of Neptune.]

[Based on the year and date of its discovery, it was named 320521.]

[According to the computer's echo intensity calculations, its diameter was at least five hundred kilometers.]

[Humanity has had a history of exploring space for nearly a hundred years; how could such a big guy have gone undiscovered all this time?]

[Some astronomers became interested in it and wanted to use pen and paper to calculate this guy's orbit and operational patterns.]

[This was not a difficult task; someone had already done it two hundred years ago.]

[After a series of rigorous calculations, people suddenly discovered that this guy was not actually in an elliptical orbit. In other words, it would not be attracted by the massive sphere of the Sun like other asteroids to roam the sky around it.]

[In other words, this was a guy that came from outside the solar system!]

[Soon, 320521 caused an uproar on Earth.]

[No country could hide it because its speed was too fast. Now, even astronomy enthusiasts could see this guy with their telescopes.]

[Initial calculations indicated that its orbit would graze the outer edge of Jupiter's gravitational field.]

[All astronomers were holding their breath, waiting for that node.]

[If it were captured by Jupiter, it would be an interstellar asteroid just passing by, at most occupying two extra pages in astronomy textbooks.]

[But it didn't. 320521 smoothly passed through the gravity of Jupiter's orbit, as if a knife cutting through butter—simple and incredible.]

[This explained a very simple fact: 320521 was not an ordinary asteroid.]

[The answer was already obvious; this was the thing humanity had long been looking forward to, yet worried about actually encountering.]

[320521—this was a man-made product.]

[In just two months, 320521 flew from the edge of the solar system and stopped between the Moon and the Earth, and then it stayed there steadily.]

[Fortunately, the order of the entire Earth had not yet fallen into chaos.]

[Although unmanageable chaos had already erupted in some underdeveloped regions, developed countries still maintained stable order.]

[It's just that the bosses selling astronomical telescopes had made a fortune in these two months.]

[However, people didn't need telescopes anymore. As long as they looked up, they could see a huge blue light shadow hanging above the sky. Even the daytime sun couldn't completely obscure its outline, and at night, the pale blue light bands flowing on its surface dyed the entire night sky a deep blue.]

[The appearance of 320521 not only alarmed the Earth but also alarmed the Tianheng Continent.]

[Especially that guy, Ji Yuan.]

[He came to Earth, looking at that touch of pale blue in the sky, appearing exceptionally excited.]

[Soon, you and a bunch of Mahayana True Immortals made up your minds to let that guy, Ji Yuan, act as your envoy to meet the other party.]

[But it failed.]

[Ji Yuan only flew to the vicinity of Earth's troposphere before he was unable to advance any further, as if some special resistance was blocking him.]

[You didn't see what method the other party used, but you knew that when you were at the Golden Core Cultivation, you had already passed through the troposphere and flown into the Universe; this time, it was clearly the other party's doing.]

[Although you didn't know what the other party's intention was, the meaning was very clear.]

[The Mahayana True Immortals on our side were like ants in their hands.]

[Then, a kind voice came down.]

[It was a female voice, kind and very gentle.]

["Human compatriots, welcome to join the Human Federation!"]

"It looks like a new Universe map is about to be unlocked," Lin Heng said, looking at the text on the simulator.

Moreover, Lin Heng had an inexplicable premonition that the so-called Mahayana True Immortals would soon be everywhere.
