Sage of Humanity-Chapter 1552 - 1550: Trouble
Jyang Shang finally understood Lu Ye's plan; it was something logical. Even he was interested in the All Phenomena Galaxy, naturally others would be interested as well.
Moreover, Lu Ye had a star map leading to the All Phenomena Galaxy. After traveling there once, he planned to bring cultivators from his own star system to the All Phenomena Ocean, which could be seen as benefiting his fellow natives.
Jyang Shang did not immediately agree, instead, he asked, "I wonder how many people Young Friend intends to bring through when the time comes?"
If it were just one or two, like Lu Ye, it wouldn't be a problem. The Indeterminate Galaxy had stood in stellar space for many years and had its own ways of dealing with such matters. But if the number was too large, negotiations would be necessary. Otherwise, misunderstandings could lead to a bad outcome for everyone.
Lu Ye shook his head, saying, "The exact number is uncertain, but rest assured, World Lord, the people I bring will not include Sun Blaze. As for Moon Jade, it will not exceed two, and the rest will all be Constellation cultivators!"
There were no Sun Blaze cultivators in the Jade Conch; even if he wanted to bring them, he couldn't. Moon Jade would be very few; bringing two Moon Jade from the Jade Conch World would be remarkable.
Jyang Shang, upon hearing this, knew it was truly just a passage request. Without Sun Blaze and fewer than two Moon Jade, it posed no threat to the Indeterminate Galaxy, so he nodded immediately, "If that's the case, then there is no problem." He then changed the topic, "However, I have one request!"
"Please, World Lord, speak!"
Jyang Shang looked at him, smiling slightly, "When Young Friend passes through our star system, I hope you can also bring a group of our star system's cultivators!"
Lu Ye had anticipated this request, and agreed without hesitation, "No problem."
From across, Daluo Moon Jade coughed lightly, "Young Friend Lu, our Daluo Galaxy is also interested in this matter. I wonder if you could provide some convenience and bring along people from our Daluo Galaxy as well?"
Initially, he had come to visit Jyang Shang for a different matter but coincidentally stumbled upon this opportunity which he couldn't afford to miss. The chance to enter the All Phenomena Galaxy might only come once; if missed, it would be gone forever.
Thus, even though he wasn't familiar with Lu Ye, he had to brazenly bring it up, fearing that Lu Ye might refuse. He quickly added, "Of course, if Young Friend can agree, our Daluo would offer a token of gratitude!"
Lu Ye waved his hand and said, "No need for a token of gratitude. It's on the way. If Daluo is interested, you can gather people in advance and prepare to wait."
The eyes of Daluo Moon Jade lit up, "Young Friend is straightforward, and I thank you here." With that, he raised his wine glass in a distant toast.
Lu Ye raised his glass and drank with him.
After setting down his glass, Lu Ye spoke, "However, there is something I must clarify with you all. Although the All Phenomena Ocean accommodates countless constellations and cultivators, the All Phenomena Galaxy has set certain rules for managing the All Phenomena Ocean, which I ask you to follow. Otherwise, if the rules are broken, no one can save you."
Everyone immediately sat up straight, and Daluo Moon Jade said, "Please, Young Friend, speak!" appearing eager to listen.
"In the All Phenomena Ocean, forces can be organized by either domains or galaxies, but no force can have more than three Moon Jade cultivators. As for Sun Blaze... it's impossible for them to stay in the All Phenomena Ocean for long. So if you wish to go to the All Phenomena Ocean, it should primarily be with Constellation cultivators, and very few Moon Jade."
Jyang Shang nodded, "I seem to have heard of this rule. It's necessary. With so many galaxies' people gathered in the All Phenomena, restrictions are needed to avoid chaos. If other galaxies can follow these rules, surely we can as well. Is there anything else to be cautious of?"
Lu Ye shook his head, "Nothing particularly noteworthy, just that the All Phenomena Ocean is disorderly and doesn't prohibit conflict, so establishing a foothold there is no simple matter."
Daluo Moon Jade said, "If Young Friend is able, could you tell us more about that place?"
Everyone looked at him eagerly, like a group of villagers unaware of the world outside.
Yaya seemed full after eating and dozed off in Lu Ye's arms. Lu Ye gently cradled her while casually recounting various aspects of the All Phenomena Ocean.
Hearing about the mystical islands of the All Phenomena Ocean and that a top-class Spirit Island could even nurture a Spirit Jade Vein, the eyes of everyone brightened significantly.
The Four Galaxies had no top-class domains, so they had never seen what a Spirit Jade Vein looked like. For a moment, they couldn't help but imagine that capturing a top-class Spirit Island in the All Phenomena Ocean might allow them to possess a Spirit Jade Vein of their own, significantly benefiting their cultivators in the future.
But they knew this was only wishful thinking. With so many top-class domains and galaxies in the All Phenomena Ocean, they would likely never claim a top-class Spirit Island. Even securing a mid-class Spirit Island would suffice.
Then they talked about White Spirit. When everyone learned that one White Spirit was worth several thousand spirit jades, they were astonished. Lu Ye even took out a White Spirit on the spot for everyone to see, and Jyang Shang ordered it to be cooked.
When served again, they each took some to eat, and all felt the pure power contained in the fish meat.
A Moon Jade praised while eating, "This fish, in terms of texture and intrinsic value, far surpasses ordinary spirit fish. It truly is a creation of the All Phenomena Ocean. Young Friend Lu, as you said, even if one doesn't have special skills in the All Phenomena Ocean, they can still make a living by fishing?"
Lu Ye replied with an odd expression, "It is possible, but there's a saying in the angler's circle: 'Fishing can impoverish three generations, and playing with fish can ruin a lifetime.' Unless you have no choice, it's better not to dabble easily."
The group of Moon Jade obviously did not understand that this saying was the lament of countless anglers' blood and tears, nor did they know if they had taken it to heart.
When the topic shifted to the previous disputes at the Constellation Palace, everyone was utterly stunned.
To imagine tens of thousands or even millions of Constellations participating in a grand event is simply daunting. No matter how strong a star system is, the number of Constellations is limited. Tens of thousands or millions... those are numbers beyond the reach of any star system.
What a grand spectacle it must be to have such a large gathering of Constellations?
Upon learning that those with high rankings in the Constellation Palace could not only have their names inscribed on the Cumulated Points Ranking but also leverage the power of the Constellation Palace to ascend to Moon Jade, a group of Moon Jades became excited.
This time the Constellation Palace was not able to participate, but as long as the Constellation Palace exists, there will always be opportunities for the younger generation to participate. Being able to have one's name inscribed on the Cumulated Points Ranking not only brings glory to the domain but also comes with tangible benefits. Such opportunities must not be missed again.
Luo Shenzhi's eyes shone brightly, "I wonder how Brother Lu ranks on the Cumulated Points Ranking?" He did not know Lu Ye's true strength and only felt that Lu Ye was very strong. In his view, Lu Ye would definitely be able to get his name on the ranking.
Lu Ye slowly shook his head and said, "I am ashamed to say that although I participated in the opening of the Constellation Palace, I was delayed midway by some matters and couldn't persist, so I did not get my name inscribed."
It's all the Constellation Palace's fault for transporting him to the main palace. However, even though he didn't get his name inscribed, obtaining a treasure like the Small Constellation Palace meant that he ended up gaining rather than losing.
"What about me then? Brother Lu, if I were to participate, where do you think I would rank?" Luo Shenzhi asked again.
Lu Ye apologized, "I haven't fought against the strong ones on the Cumulated Points Ranking, so I can't judge."
In his view, Luo Shenzhi would have no problem reaching the top hundred, but that would be about his limit, given the large number of seasoned Constellations participating in the Constellation Palace.
But these were just his own judgments, and there was no need to voice them.
The banquet continued, a group of Moon Jades asked about various aspects of the All Phenomena Ocean, and Lu Ye shared everything he knew, describing to them the magnificent marvels of the stellar space.
Finally, when he had nothing more to share, the Moon Jades reluctantly stopped their questions, still wanting more, wishing they could visit the All Phenomena Galaxy immediately to see it with their own eyes.
Jyang Shang said, "I wonder, Young Friend, how long will it take you to reach Jade Conch?"
Lu Ye replied, "About two years."
Jyang Shang nodded, "Two years to go, two years to return, let's say five years in total. Then, Young Friend, let's settle it like this. During these five years, we at Indeterminate will prepare, and when you return, we'll accompany you to the All Phenomena Galaxy!"
"No problem!" Lu Ye nodded.
Daluo Moon Jade quickly added, "And us at Daluo too!" He was afraid of being left behind.
Jyang Shang raised his cup, "Such a happy event is a blessing for us at Indeterminate. We thank Young Friend Lu. Let's drink together!"
All the Moon Jades raised their cups in unison, "Thank you, Young Friend Lu!"
After putting down the cup, Jyang Shang said, "There's one more thing I need to ask you, Young Friend. Which direction do you plan to take to get to Jade Conch?" After saying this, he added, "Please don't misunderstand. I do not wish to pry into your course, but there is currently a troublesome location outside the Indeterminate Galaxy."
"What trouble?" Lu Ye asked. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞
Jyang Shang said, "Decades ago, an insect hive drifted into that direction!"
"An insect hive?" Lu Ye furrowed his brows at this, "The Insect Race?"
"Indeed!" Jyang Shang nodded, "And it's not just any insect hive, it's one guarded by more than one Sun Blaze. It has been eyeing us outside Indeterminate with intentions of invasion, so if you go in another direction, there should be no problem. But if you're headed in that direction, it could be troublesome."
Lu Ye wasn't sure if his chosen direction was where the insect hive was, so he took out the star map given to him by the Reincarnation Tree, "Please, World Lord, take a look!"
There wasn't anything to hide on this star map, and it didn't matter even if Jyang Shang knew the exact route from Jade Conch to the All Phenomena Galaxy.
He stepped forward and offered the star map. Jyang Shang took a look, and his brows furrowed, "This is a bit troublesome."
He found that according to the guidance on the star map, Lu Ye's destination was precisely where the insect hive was located!
Adding to this, Lu Ye was a target jointly pursued by the Blood Race and the Insect Race. If the Insect Race discovered his trail, it would undoubtedly result in a relentless pursuit.
Seeing Jyang Shang's reaction, Lu Ye's heart skipped a beat, "What a coincidence?"
Jyang Shang nodded, "Just such a coincidence!" After a pause, he looked at Yaya in Lu Ye's arms, "Young Friend, don't worry too much. If you have someone to protect you, as long as you are careful, you should be able to pass through alone without issue."
