Planet Pulverizer: A Mortal's Ascent-Chapter 395: Urgency

Hearing Yuan Zhenchuan's descriptions, combined with insights from other Supreme Experts and the information in his own hands, Li Pin gradually understood why humanity had shown little concern for the existence of alternate dimensions.

It was due to the restrictions of the rules. They assumed that even if a civilization targeted Gaia, they couldn't directly harm it. They could only secretly support local demonic creatures, letting them stir chaos from within.

As for alternate dimensions, native beings and demonic creatures might receive aid from those domains, but beings from other civilizations couldn't truly descend upon Gaia. The corpses found in the Peach Blossom Secret Domain were the best example of this limitation.

"You haven't tried using alternate dimensions to contact those civilizations and verify the truth of their claims?" Li Pin asked.

"Of course we tried," Yuan Zhenchuan replied with a trace of emotion. "Where do you think the Beast-Taming and Astral Palace Systems came from?"

Li Pin was momentarily stunned. The Beast-Taming and Astral Palace Systems were actually derived from them...

Solar Radiance Sovereign said, "But that's the extent of it. Just as we can't determine the truth of what the Divine Dragon Empire's people say, we can't fully trust the motives behind the information these civilizations share.

"Moreover, the two systems they provided are largely limited to Master and Legendary-level Astral Cultivators. We had to deduce the Legendary-level paths based on their materials, which clearly shows how cautious they are toward us."

They were all enemies and competitors!

Solar Radiance Sovereign continued, "We should be grateful that our competitors are limited to the civilizations within our galaxy. Civilizations beyond are constrained by the rules and can't compete with us.

"Even though the gaps between civilizations remain vast, as long as we endure the initial phase and persevere, we'll have nine hundred years to take a breather.

"With guidance from the Homo Sapien Alliance, those years should help us narrow the gap...."

Wu De interjected, "Sovereign, I must reiterate that this information hasn't been verified. Perhaps the so-called Homo Sapien Alliance doesn't exist, and what surrounds our Gaia civilization are merely hostile invaders."

Solar Radiance Sovereign fell silent.

Yuan Zhenchuan didn't pursue the matter further. "I'll send you all the information we've gathered on alternate dimensions and alien civilizations. Whether it's true or false, you'll have to decide for yourself.

"However, two things are certain. First, before the protection phase ends, we must eliminate all demonic creatures and establish dominance over Gaia! Second, humanity's nations must unite—only through unity can we face the dangers of the outside world."

He gave a decisive wave. "Reforming the Human Alliance is imperative. We must select a true leader—a chairman with both capability and resolve—to unite all our forces against the growing crisis."

No one opposed Yuan Zhenchuan's words. On these two points, they had already reached a consensus.

"Well then, I'd like to know: how much time do we have left?" Li Pin asked.

"We don't know when the great Astral God perished exactly. But it shouldn't be far off from the time we first sensed his presence. The Astral God's fall should have happened no more than ninety-six years ago. This means we have a maximum of six years left. But we can't rely on that; we've set the deadline at three years."

Yuan Zhenchuan's expression turned serious. "Within three years, we must clear all the perilous regions that could potentially establish Divine Kingdoms. We must also complete the restructuring of the Human Alliance and select the first chairman."

"Three years..." Li Pin murmured, processing the information.

They had three years, six at most. Time was truly running out.

He now understood why the Six Extremities had become so active lately. Matters that once dragged on for months, even half a year, were now being resolved in a fraction of the time.

"As for the candidate for the first chairman of the Human Alliance, each supreme expert has the right to nominate someone. The key is who can gain the approval of the majority," Yuan Zhenchuan said, casting a glance at Li Pin. "From now on, give it your all."

With that, the meeting ended. The other Supreme Experts quietly assessed Li Pin before standing and vanishing.

Li Pin glanced at Yuan Zhenchuan and thought about the vast amount of information he had just received. He felt that he would need time to fully digest it.

As the simulated space faded away, Li Pin found himself back in a high-tech room.

Ring, ring!

Just as he collected his thoughts, his communication bracelet vibrated repeatedly.

Li Pin glanced down.

Alternate Dimension Analysis

Alien Civilization Research Record

Access Granted to Legendary Treasure Vault

Council Member's Rights and Responsibilities Guide

4.3 Billion Contribution Points Deposited

***

Li Pin reviewed everything carefully.

Among these, the most important were the 4.3 billion points he'd received and his access to the Legendary Treasure Vault.

These points were his reward for the Death Valley purge. As for the Legendary Treasure Vault, as its name suggested, it was a repository for exchanging and trading legendary-grade cultivation resources.

After browsing briefly, Li Pin found that legendary astral equipment was available for exchange. The prices varied—some as high as several billion points, others around a billion.

Although 4.3 billion points seemed substantial, it would only allow him to exchange for two or three legendary astral equipment at most.

"If I can exchange for legendary-grade resources..." murmured Li Pin.

He searched and soon found the Spirit-Essence Orb. It was priced at three hundred million points.

Given his mental spirit attribute deficit, he exchanged all of his 4.2 billion points for fourteen Spirit-Essence Orbs.

As for other resources, Li Pin found treasures similar to the Primordial Electric Crystal, but of far superior quality. However, after considering his options, he chose to prioritize the Spirit-Essence Orbs to temper his mental spirit.

With a stronger mental spirit, he could delve deeper into his genetic abilities, accelerating his qi and blood growth. Additionally, the boost to his mental spirit would complement his Celestial Magnetic Field. Thus, exchanging his points for Spirit-Essence Orbs was the best choice for him at the moment.

Li Pin thought, At last, I get to enjoy some benefits of being part of humanity's upper echelons.

Sensing that Su Dongfeng had been waiting outside for a while, Li Pin stood up and opened the door.

Su Dongfeng immediately clasped his hands respectfully and congratulated him with a smile. "Congratulations, Hall Master Li, on your promotion to Council Member."

"With great power and authority comes great responsibility," Li Pin responded.

"I have always had the utmost faith in your convictions," Su Dongfeng said, nodding in admiration. "We've arrived in Jiang Province City. Would you like to visit the Divine Martial Sect? Everyone there is eagerly awaiting your arrival."

"There's no need to visit the Divine Martial Sect. Time is tight; I need to head to Dark Moon Island as soon as possible. But before that... I'll meet with a few familiar faces."

"Of course, Hall Master Li. I'll follow your lead," Su Dongfeng quickly agreed.

After the Human Alliance Expansion Conference concluded, Li Pin went to meet his family and friends, such as Mrs. Li, Lin Xiaolu, and Qin Rouran.

Meanwhile, the five Legendary figures of the Star Alliance, having just finished their own meeting, gathered with grim expressions.

They were Wu De, the Supreme Expert and wielder of the Frost Ring; Lin Ken; Bai Ying; Zuo Xiangfeng; and Ao Fei.

Wu De said in a low voice. "Our request was rejected again. No one understands the danger of the Tenfold Heavenly Domains like we do, especially the Dragon-Slaying Hall on the tenth floor. It is littered with countless demonic creatures.

"The Star Alliance invests countless resources and manpower into this perilous region each year, yet the Human Alliance's Legends turn a blind eye!"

His gaze swept over the others. "I suggest we implement Plan B."

"Are you truly suggesting we allow the demonic creatures to spread to increase the perilous level?" Ao Fei frowned. "The risks are too great! If these creatures break out of the Tenfold Heavenly Domain, it could paralyze the entire southern part of the alliance!"

"If we execute the plan in conjunction with the clearing of Dark Moon Island, we can trigger an emergency response from the Human Alliance. The Master and Legendary Astral Cultivators on Dark Moon Island will immediately move to contain it, prioritizing the cleanup of the Tenfold Heavenly Domain."

Wu De's voice grew firm. "Time is running out; this is our only chance."

"I agree with you, Lord Wu De," Zuo Xiangfeng said seriously. "Why has the Great Shang been able to develop so quickly and become the leading candidate for the next Human Alliance chairman? It's because they don't have high-risk zones hindering them. They can freely expand and increase their international influence."

He glanced at the group. "If the Star Alliance can eliminate this perilous region within our territory, we can redeploy the Master and Legendary Astral Cultivators guarding the Tenfold Heavenly Realm.

"Other nations will have no choice but to seek our help. This way, we will not only secure more advantages, but our international influence will also rise significantly. When the Human Alliance chairman election comes, they'll have no choice but to vote for us."

Bai Ying added, "Exactly. Even if we can't fully trust the words of the people of the Divine Dragon Empire, what if they're right?

"Whoever becomes the first chairman of the Human Alliance will essentially be the leader bridging Gaia civilization and the Homo Sapien Alliance. And what does that mean? It means that the immense support of the Homo Sapien Alliance will be ours to distribute. At that point, the Star Alliance will be the unspoken ruler of Gaia Civilization."

Lin Ken and Ao Fei remained silent.

"Humans... how insignificant we are compared to the great Astral Gods. And Gaia, how trivial when set against the vast cosmos?

"If we can establish contact with the Homo Sapien Alliance, not only could we break our current limit and push beyond the Legendary realm, but we would also get closer to becoming lifeforms akin to the Astral Gods. Gaia's light will continue to shine across the galaxy, under the Star Alliance's guidance!"

Wu De spoke with firm conviction, "The other Legends of the Human Alliance lack the vision to seize this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Only we have the decisiveness to act. In the face of this vast universe, even if the south falls, any sacrifice will be worth it."

Lin Ken and Ao Fei exchanged a look.

"Astral Gods... the universe..."

Indeed, humans were but a speck in this boundless cosmos. As the saying goes, "Those who achieve greatness do not concern themselves with small matters."

Lin Kan sighed. "If you are determined to do it, then go ahead."

Ao Fei remained silent, but it was clear he agreed with the decision.

"Thank you, my friends, for your trust! Believe in me!" Wu De said with a determined tone. "I will make the Star Alliance great again!"
