Facing the Apocalypse with My Other Selves
Chapter 608 - 340: The First All Heavens Spaceship (Part 2)
At this moment, the world changed in color and tone.
Shen Yu and everyone else could clearly feel it.
The Heavenly Dao was in "wrath."
The Heavenly Dao of the Primordial World does not possess true emotions.
The so-called wrath is more of an instinctive reaction.
It is like it triggers and enhances a great calamity.
Instinctively, it wants to prevent the Celestial Emperor from leaving.
However, at this point, the Heavenly Dao itself could do nothing anymore.
Without needing to do much, Shen Yu directly ordered the Celestial Dao Tree to suppress all changes of the Heavenly Dao in an instant.
He agreed to it.
"Exploring the All Heavens is something that a member of our level should do. It is naturally beneficial for me that you are willing to explore. I will prepare magical treasures, devices, and all the support I can provide for your exploration. Of course, you will also need to meet certain conditions..."
Shen Yu detailed the requirements for exploration.
These requirements were not decided by him alone.
In previous meetings, Shen Yu had already thought of allowing the powerful within his civilization to explore the All Heavens.
After all, those who have reached the limit mostly seek the possibility of further advancement.
And this possibility can only be found in the All Heavens.
This is also beneficial to the Association.
After fully controlling their own world and civilization, all resources within the worlds of the Association actually belong to them, especially scarce resources like the Saint Fruit Position. Therefore, it is most promising for some citizens who have reached their limits to explore and find more resources.
Moreover, this is not mandatory.
If one just wants to stay in their own world and does not wish to take risks, that is naturally also feasible.
In summary, after discussing with the Celestial Emperor, this matter has been largely settled.
After Shen Yu left, the Celestial Emperor, following Shen Yu's request, gathered all the Great Immortals to the Palace of the Polestar and publicly announced this decision.
There was no reaction from the immortals regarding the Celestial Emperor's intention to yield the position of Celestial Emperor to Shen Yu.
This was something expected.
In fact, quite a few immortals in the Palace of the Polestar had already gone to serve under Shen Yu beforehand.
They are just waiting for the Celestial Emperor to step down.
But what truly shocked, even impacted the immortals was that the Association allowed them to explore the All Heavens on their own!
Originally, according to the previous understanding, exploring the All Heavens required being under the control of the Association.
It was under the absolute control of the Association's members from other All Heavens Worlds.
But now, they can independently explore those completely random All Heavens Worlds where no Association members are present!
Even though there are still some restrictions, it still represents more freedom and greater benefits.
No wonder the Jade Emperor is so eager.
Even the immortals of the Heavenly Court have started discussing it.
"Three Eyes, are you planning to go?" Nezha immediately found Erlang Shen, looking eager, "Why don't we team up with that monkey, form a team of three? Your brothers from Mount Mei can join as well. If we encounter danger, with our strength, we should not be helpless."
"Exploring the All Heavens is not as simple as you imagine." Erlang Shen glanced at Nezha, not as joyous, but rather more solemn, "We have Celestial Destiny in this world, everything we've experienced in the past seemed dangerous, but in reality, everything has its order. But if we go to the All Heavens, it's completely different, anything can happen, even with our power, what would we do if encountering a Saint, or a world as powerful as the High Martial World?"
"You said so much, but you are already tempted." Nezha saw through Erlang Shen's true thoughts.
If he didn't want to go, he wouldn't say so much.
A simple "uninteresting" would suffice.
And this is one of the reasons why Nezha wants to pull Erlang Shen into the team.
In Nezha's envisioned "iron triangle," Erlang Shen clearly plays the role of "using his brain."
However, this matter cannot be decided lightly.
More information needs to be gathered.
And there are quite a few immortals with similar thoughts.
Of course, not all immortals want to leave the Primordial World.
In fact, a larger portion plans to stay here, serving the new Celestial Emperor, managing the beings of the three realms.
After all, most immortals have not yet reached the status of top-tier powerhouses in the Primordial World. There is enough room for growth here, especially after the Great Powers leave, creating even more space for growth.
Even if they need to go to other worlds, following the Celestial Emperor to support those worlds belonging to the Association members and earning merit rewards is clearly more feasible than venturing into the All Heavens.
In summary, as the news spread, the entire Primordial World entered a new phase.
The Great Powers are working harder, hoping to gain the qualification to explore the All Heavens.
The ordinary immortals are even more eager, hoping to replace the position of the Great Powers and rise to a higher level.
This enthusiasm is not only seen in the immortals; even the demon clan is the same.
Some great demons, who were originally wary of the Association and the Heavenly Court or wanted to remain detached, have proactively come forward during this time to accept "amnesty and enlistment."
Meanwhile, Shen Yu, who had anticipated the enthusiasm of the immortals from the Primordial World, also began to urge the construction of the "All Heavens Ship."
The joint exploration by the Interstellar Civilization and Wizard Civilization has indeed had a significant impact.
The consumption of Gray Mist has greatly decreased.
However, it is clear that their research can only cover some basic aspects relative to the whole.
Deeper fields cannot be broken through in a short period.
Therefore, after completing basic research and seeing the research reach a bottleneck where the demand for Gray Mist also stalled, Shen Yu and the others did not hesitate to utilize the Gray Mist.
This consumed about two-thirds of the entire Association's Gray Mist consumption to date.
"This is a heavy loss. If we cannot recover it from the All Heavens, it would be a huge loss," Shen Yu said with an uncommon hint of nervousness as he looked at the technology that had taken shape.
For the Association, the All Heavens Worlds in this form also mean risk and opportunity.
But regardless, the first spaceship was finally built.
"As initially speculated, this is less of a spaceship and more of a 'small world,'" interstellar world Shen Yu commented, looking at the "ship" before him. "It maintains the most basic Law inside; the captain has absolute authority over the entire ship. Besides, all connections beyond the world will be automatically erased in the interdimensional rift, but the traces left outside the world cannot be erased. Therefore, for safety, this ship also has a self-destruct mode controlled by the captain."
From the outside, this ship does not even have the appearance of a ship.
It is more of a "bubble."
A bubble that only existed in concept, now materialized.
In reality, its internal space is also very limited.
It is not a world of infinite size.
After discovering a New World, it will integrate into the New World, becoming a Secret Realm within, equivalent to logging in.
As for how to ensure this Secret Realm is not discovered, controlled, or even invaded...
That depends on the skills of the captain and crew.
At least the Association has not yet been able to carry out unified enhancements.
Outwardly, it is declared to be just a basic version.
"Has the crew for the first All Heavens Ship been decided?" Shen Yu looked at the other Shens Yu.
Although many immortals in the Primordial World are eager and waiting, the most suitable ones to go on the first exploration of the All Heavens are still the various Shen Yus, preferably those whose worlds and civilizations are relatively weaker.
This way, it also facilitates the 'heroic sacrifice' approach.
