"This Guardian, I’ll give it to you," Wu Hen said to the boy.
"I stole it with my skills, and I can also use my skills to turn it into a Guardian that protects the whole world!" the boy replied.
"Firstly, this tropical exhibition hall is owned by my family; all the rare pets here are mine. You were stealing from my ho, but now I am giving it to you," Wu Hen walked up to the boy and said earnestly,
"Secondly, you need not worry about the affairs of Lun Mountain City. I will go there to defend it and will not let those disgusting insects harm your friends anymore."
A fortress had already been built outside the white wormhole of Lun Mountain City, forming a racial standoff with this white insect nest. Although currently, the fortress mainly faced Alien Insects and a few Red Zhe Insects, as soon as humans started fleeing, orders for their annihilation were sure to co from the high-dinsional insects.
When that ti ca, who knew how many Alien Insects and Red Zhe Insects would pour out of the white wormhole? Even under the suppression of the Nuwa Law, their terrifying numbers were sothing that human strength could hardly withstand.
Wu Hen had participated in the Red Palace battle, which, frankly, was also a grand feast ga by the high-dinsional insects. It was designed to make the Human Clan Force of Red Port engage in combat with their soldiers while the high-dinsional insects watched from prestigious seats.
One thousand tyrant tiger armors!
Even if the number of Red Zhe Insects coming through the white wormhole was limited, the continual influx of such level of otherworldly life into the holand still spelled a terrible disaster.
"The white wormhole has a narrowness; you can think of it as a carrying speed. Even if there are millions of high-dinsional insect armies on the other end of the white wormhole, the amount of Red Zhe that can invade our holand is limited. But indeed, the strength of these mature insects is more formidable than we anticipated, if all that co through are mature insects...," Li Feng said.
"Don’t worry; as long as I am there, I will not allow these Red Zhe Insects to wreak havoc, and I will make sure the high-dinsional insects understand that no matter how many Red Zhe Insects they send, they are just providing us with valuable Crystal Cores!" Wu Hen was still confident in his own strength.
Moreover, fighting within the Nuwa God End, under its laws, Wu Hen believed that even the visible deities of Otherworldly Dust could be slain by him!
"Alright then, I will leave the fortress in your hands," Li Feng said.
"There are two more issues; first, capturing the Yuan You on the Magic Cube Star to ensure that our Nuwa God End has Elental Energy entering into Ti Travel and Space Wander. The second problem is how to prevent our fleeing compatriots from being turned into experintal guinea pigs," Wu Hen said.
Both issues were difficult to solve.
Especially since he was under the special surveillance of the high-dinsional insects, it was even harder to get involved in the fight.
Li Feng clearly understood this as well.
"You don’t need to worry about these issues; I already have strategies in place," Li Feng said with conviction.
Wu Hen looked at Li Feng and even subconsciously used his Perception to observe Li Feng’s microexpressions.
The microexpressions revealed a reptile-like calmness, different from his usual deanor.
This made Wu Hen have to believe that Chief Li definitely had so things he was keeping from himself.
Since he was unwilling to speak, Wu Hen did not ask further.
After all, each section leader only needed to do what they were supposed to in their own area.
Wu Hen did not really see himself as the leader of this world, nor did he have any interest in becoming that leader. The true leader should be this man before him, wearing black-frad glasses, whose vision currently held the united hope of the great majority of rational humans...
Wu Hen chose to trust him.
Unwilling to speak, there must be reasons of his own.

At the Red Port Harbor, a Silver Grey Rubik’s Cube made of Star Silver floated above the churning Red Plane. From a distance, the entire Silver Grey Rubik’s Cube appeared smooth and perfectly mysterious in its cubic form. But as one got closer, one would notice each facet of the cube pulsating, moving in a very precise and orderly manner, acting as a vibrant and energy-packed piece of art!
Not far from the Magic Cube Star, almost rging with the Red Plane, slight ripples of five colors appeared as if in a giant bubble that was normally hard to notice until it showed under the sunlight.
These occasional five-color ripples were the thin realm.
Inside the thin realm was where the Nuwa Divine Tree rooted itself in the Pure Land.
The Pure Land, composed of colorful soils with mysterious five-color streams flowing through, harbored an erging city-state under the Nuwa Divine Tree. The city-state leaned towards the primitive, essentially constructed of hard soil and colorful stones, and lacked any modern technology, resembling more a fairy-tale-like Stone Age town built rely with basic infrastructure.
Outside this Pure Land city-state, there was an Eternal Life Bridge.
On the Eternal Life Bridge, a Taoist from the Longevity Sect still guided those who were unwilling to stay within the Nuwa Divine Realm.
In the past, the Eternal Life Bridge had been teeming with people, the small bridge seemingly a gateway to the Holy Realm of Heaven, where people tornted by suffering would climb to the other side, no matter what it took.
However, nearly a year into the guiding process, fewer and fewer people stepped onto the bridge.
The other side of the bridge was unknown, and even though they were a group constantly speaking of kindness, compassion, and morality, and making various beautiful promises, for so ethnic groups that had lived on the sa soil for generations, it was very difficult to genuinely identify with them.
It was like a family, poor in life but rich in spirit, being asked to beco the children of the wealthy and to sever ties with their birth family—sothing that was often impossible, especially given that the wealthy person’s kindness seed sowhat false.
Dao Master ng Zhang stood there with an appearance of integrity, smiling gently at every person who crossed the Eternal Life Bridge.
Sotis, ng Zhang even felt like he was a guide ssenger from Heaven, sending these poor people to the heaven they longed for…
Even as the Dao Master of the Longevity Sect, he himself did not know where these people would ultimately go; yet his intuition told him that the Eternal Life Bridge was a thousand tis more terrifying than the Naihe Bridge, and that the other end of the bridge was even less than the Beast Path!
"Yu Yan, why won’t you listen to your uncle’s advice? The Longevity Sect has been rooted in our world for so many years, and you have seen how they have treated us over these years. Once on Longevity Island, everyone can practice the Longevity Technique, have a lifespan as long as the heavens, and why worry about not being able to evolve into a higher life form in the future?"
By the bridge, dressed in white, Gao Chang stood there, earnestly persuading his niece, Gao Yu Yan,
"You are still young and might not understand how helpless it feels to be older. Your energy will decline, your body will beco a burden, your mory will blur, and the things you long for will drift further and further away…"
"Besides, which girl doesn’t hope to stay young forever? It’s true that not everyone can succeed in the Path to Longevity, but at least it’s a deeply hopeful belief. You must understand how many emperors in our history spent their lives seeking longevity, and in this era of high civilization and advanced technology, as we explore the universe, as we delve into the virtual, aren’t we still in search of the thod for eternal life?"
"I can very responsibly tell you, the reason Li Feng and his team are digging into the virtual world is also to upload our human consciousness onto a server. Under blockchain technology, the foundation of the virtual universe has beco unique, free from human copying, editing, or destruction. They originally wanted to create an unchangeable, unshakeable virtual world, where the thoughts of the upper classes are immortal, their souls eternally preserved. In their digging, they found out that we are actually already in this form—don’t you think Li Feng is laughable?"
"Past emperors, now the top people in humanity, are all pursuing eternal life. Surely they are not stupider than you, or less enlightened than you, obviously not."
"Past emperors couldn’t find the Longevity Technique because the Nuwa Divine Realm was locking us up, making us adhere to the lowly Law of birth, aging, sickness, and death."
"Today’s top human explorers cannot achieve eternal life; compared to the vast expanse of the Otherworldly Dust, they are inherently like sumr insects or transient blossoms, with lifespans too brief to see the true asure of life."
"But the Longevity Sect is different. They have resided in Red Port for over a hundred years; their appearance does not age, they keep their legacy through generations, and among us migrants, there are also people of supre wisdom. Do you know Zhuang Yi? He is a leading pioneer not inferior to Li Feng. Hasn’t he verified the truth of the Longevity Sect? Just like antiques, the real deal is the real deal. It can be identified through our existing science."
"The people of the Longevity Sect have genuinely broken through the limits of lifespan, having lived for hundreds of years."
Gao Chang changed his usually forceful attitude towards his niece Gao Yu Yan, patiently explaining to her why he still chose the Longevity Sect in the end.
"I don’t doubt the Longevity Technique, I just don’t want to leave ho," Gao Yu Yan was conflicted internally.
"Alas, your parents, your brother, are already out of contact. I am the only relative you have left. If you don’t co with , do you intend to stay in this backwards world and let those from the Old Faction bully you?" Gao Chang said.
"Actually, they haven’t bullied . In fact, everyone just has different philosophies; there’s no irreconcilable hatred," Gao Yu Yan said.
Not only had Gao Yu Yan not been bullied, but she had also gained quite a lot of resources and had already advanced to a higher realm.
Moreover, through these experiences, Gao Yu Yan had co to understand.
When a major crisis ca, this uncle Gao Chang would indeed push her out.
And a certain great villain who repeatedly said he would brutally harm her was rely teasing her; his nature wasn’t bad, and he always had his principles in the face of any situation.
The Old Faction’s journey was indeed long and arduous.

But one thing Gao Yu Yan found comforting was that no matter how badly injured she was in the Otherworldly Dust, she could always return to her birthplace, back to the familiar house she knew…
"Alas, then I can’t take care of you anymore!" Gao Chang, seeing his niece undeterred like she had drunk a bewitching potion, could only sternly say.
"Uncle, all of our fates are unknown, and maybe you really can beco immortal. If you do, and you return to the holand, you could even sweep my grave…" Gao Yu Yan squeezed out a smile.
At this remark, Gao Chang was stunned, as that scene flashed before his mind, and his normally rigid face visibly changed. He reached out and gently touched the hair on Gao Yu Yan’s forehead.
"Yu Yan, don’t bla your uncle for past matters; it was all for the sake of survival."
"I understand, Uncle. I wish you a smooth journey," Gao Yu Yan said.
