As Zhan Jiuxiao finished speaking, many powerful figures in the Zhan Alliance followed suit.

Each of the venerable ones took a small step forward, their auras fully revealed.

The Terran, Zerg, and Mech races appear to be cooperating this time.

But in reality, it was also a clash between various factions.

If they compromise, the Mechs and Zerg will definitely take advantage of the situation.

One can see the fundamental laws of the universe almost manifesting themselves.

The Zerg venerable had no choice but to give up at this point.

"Since you are unwilling to take these extreme measures, we can use other means to support one of us to rise to the top of this colony planet, forcibly control them, and turn them into our puppets. Is that acceptable?"

The mechanical race's divine messenger immediately offered a compromise.

The many powerful figures present exchanged glances and nodded slightly.

"can."

For them, it's something acceptable.

After all, their strength is undeniable, and according to their knowledge, the strongest being on this colony planet seems to be only a Venerable in the early stages.

For them, any one of them could directly control the planet.

However, no one can guarantee that this Venerable One will not directly contact the Saints in this pseudo-universe.

If a sage were to intervene, even if they possessed the corresponding means, they would still likely face a catastrophic disaster.

The powerful figures present quickly discussed the matter, sharing their opinions and thoroughly considering each possible change. Through the mechanical race's deductions, they swiftly came up with an idea on how to control this world.

……

At this very moment, on the planet Cangyu, ice is continuously covering the surface.

In the planetary governor's mansion, Huang Xuesheng, who had advanced to the Venerable realm several years ago and become the governor of this place, looked at the glacier-like scene outside the main city of Cangyu Star in the distance, and felt a pang of sorrow in his heart.

"I don't know how long we can hold out..."

As a newly ascended Venerable One, Huang Xuesheng looked at the distant scene and felt not pride or high spirits, but despair.

It's been eighty-seven years!

Eighty-seven years have passed since Cangyu Star lost contact with the main human federation.

He still remembers his youth and the current glory, where humanity stands at the pinnacle, vying with many dominant races for supremacy in the universe, competing for territory, colonizing planets, and various resources.

He came to Cangyu Star with the same ideal, hoping to explore and develop it, just like the many wise men of the human race in history.

however……

Something unexpected happened!

Overnight, a tremendous change occurred. Cangyu Star could no longer contact the main human federation, and the colony planet immediately fell into chaos.

It's important to know that Cangyu Star was only colonized recently, and there aren't many traces of its presence. It's just a red dwarf star in the surrounding area!

It can provide less light and heat than the real sun.

The reason why powerful humans colonized this uninhabited planet was because it was rich in a precious metal that could be used in various ways.

This place could have been maintained.

However, as contact was lost, the planet, which had been transformed into a suitable environment, began to fade and become covered in solid ice, just as it had been for countless years.

Human presence has gradually shrunk from the entire planet to the area of ​​the main city.

The outside world is too cold; the strong will naturally be fine, while the weak cannot even survive.

"I don't know how long I can hold on. With the strength of a Venerable, if it were in the past, I could probably become the lord of a star field. But now..."

Huang Xuesheng gave a wry smile.

In terms of destruction, he could easily destroy this asteroid, but what he needs to do now is change the environment of the entire planet.

To do this, even greater power is needed.

Moreover, even a skilled cook cannot make a meal without rice.

He cannot create planets out of thin air.

We could only watch helplessly as the extreme cold continued to engulf us.

"Perhaps I should set off again to see if I can find the location of the main body."

Just as Huang Xuesheng was pondering, a clear voice suddenly rang out from the side in the midst of the silence.

"Fellow Daoist, what are you worried about?"

"Who?"

Huang Xuesheng was startled and suddenly turned his head. He then saw a figure emerge from the shadows of his governor's mansion.

He was dressed in a jet-black robe, exuding a fierce and domineering aura. He was handsome and young, but more importantly, Huang Xuesheng had never seen him before.

"These are human venerable beings I've never seen before. Could they have all jumped over from other human planets?!"

"That's it, it must be it, it must be!"

Huang Xuesheng frowned, a sense of crisis arising in his heart for a moment, but he quickly suppressed it.

Having been a Venerable for so many years, he naturally knew that since this Venerable had spoken, it meant that he had a certain degree of goodwill.

perhaps……

Suddenly, his breathing became heavier, and in an instant, he lost control of his aura, which spread outwards.

The entire main city could feel the terrifying aura of their governor, becoming extremely unstable and chaotic.

But soon after, Huang Xuesheng calmed himself down, took a deep breath, and immediately asked, "Where did you come from? Which intact star track did you follow? What is the Federation like now? What exactly happened back then?"

He asked several questions in a row, but the young man in front of him, Jiang Shu, was unable to answer them for the time being.

"I don't know either. I came here by crossing the void in my physical body."

Jiang Shu slowly shook his head.

"Transcending physical boundaries?"

Huang Xuesheng looked doubtful and slowly shook his head: "I see. It seems you're quite lucky, much luckier than me."

"Oh?"

Jiang Shu thought to himself.

The universe is desolate and empty. If a Venerable One were to fall into it, although he could survive by absorbing the power of laws within his own chaotic space, it would be unlikely that he could find his target without guidance.

The starry sky is too vast.

As for the star trails he mentioned, Jiang Shu did know a thing or two about them.

There are corresponding records within this local area network.

Star trails are roads laid by the human cosmic federation for navigation between various planets; a simple analogy is a star highway.

However, these star trails also collapsed decades ago.

"Indeed, I've been much luckier."

The next moment, Huang Xuesheng immediately asked, "Which planet did you cross from? What's your planet like? Can you tell me?" In his view, the Venerable One in front of him must have come from another planet.

In an instant, Huang Xuesheng had an idea.

Perhaps this venerable one before him can help him extricate the entire planet from its predicament.

"Our planet..."

Jiang Shu pondered for a moment before speaking, "Our planet, like yours, has lost contact with the Federation. However, our planet is habitable, and there are other planets around us, so we are not lacking in resources."

At this point, Huang Xuesheng sighed.

At least, the other side doesn't have to go to such lengths to maintain the ecological balance of the entire planet, just like we have.

The next moment, Huang Xuesheng spoke again, "Could I relocate my people to your planet? My place is about to collapse. Although I have advanced to the Venerable level, I am still quite powerless in the face of the entire universe..."

He looked at Jiang Shu with great anticipation, hoping that this Venerable One would agree to the matter out of consideration for their shared human race.

However, Jiang Shu slowly shook his head.

"I'm sorry, we also have our own troubles on our end, and we can't tell you."

"How about this……"

Huang Xuesheng's face showed undisguised disappointment, but the next moment, Jiang Shu spoke up again: "However, we can provide support in terms of resources and technology. If it is just about restoring the ecological balance here, we can do it."

"really!?"

Huang Xuesheng's breathing became rapid again, and he said, "I wonder when it can be delivered. Do you still have a complete technology chain?"

You should know that this place was originally a mining planet, but it was so large that the environment was modified.

"can."

Jiang Shu nodded immediately.

He believed that the machine race would still be able to recreate the corresponding environment, since humans were still inferior to them in terms of technology.

"That's great."

Huang Xuesheng breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I will immediately convene the senior management to discuss the matter and resolve it as soon as possible."

As a venerable one, the laws he comprehends allow him to sense the good and evil intentions in people's hearts.

From what he can see now, he did not sense any malice from this young venerable one.

Moreover, this venerable one is far too young.

To possess such a level of understanding at such a young age.

This only proves that there is a terrifying force behind it.

If someone truly harbors malicious intent, even if he wanted to stop them, he couldn't.

Not to mention, what does his planet even have that the other party wants?

This place is really too barren.

"Fellow Daoist, there's no rush. We must take our time. Could you tell me what you know about things related to that year?"

Jiang Shu immediately spoke.

"This one……"

Huang Xuesheng looked troubled and said, "If I had known the details of what happened back then, I wouldn't be trapped here."

"Could you tell me? Any information would be appreciated."

Jiang Shu immediately spoke, and then sat down in a seat to the side, as if he were ready to listen at any time.

Huang Xuesheng pondered for a moment, thinking that there was indeed no need to rush, after all, the entire planet had already waited for eighty-seven years.

He sighed, sat down to the side, and began to recount: "When I first came to this planet, I was merely a cultivator at the eighth level, and I came here with the Universal Expansion Company to develop the mineral veins."

"and then."

Jiang Shu pretended to listen attentively.

Although the Mech Protoss's Mech Envoys breached the network and carried out a large-scale cleanup and organization.

This information may be comprehensive, but there will inevitably be some aspects that only exist in the mind of this high-ranking official.

"Later, an ecosystem began to develop on this planet, and I was merely earning some cultivation resources here. Everything remained the same until later..."

Huang Xuesheng sighed and said, "That was also very special. I felt an invisible fluctuation coming from the starry sky."

"The technological products of the entire planet were rendered inoperable for a moment as a result. Although they were later repaired, irreparable flaws were found."

“In the past, we could have made up for it by asking the head office for help. However, when I looked up at the sky, I saw with my own eyes the three star orbits that connect the stars in the sky cracking inch by inch.”

"As for the network that connects to the Human Federation as a whole, it collapsed from the very beginning and became completely unusable."

"The entire planet is in chaos. If it weren't for the presence of troops here, it would probably have already self-destructed."

Jiang Shu nodded slightly.

Although Huang Xuesheng spoke simply, Huang Xuesheng could vaguely sense a hint of impending doom in his words.

The simultaneous destruction of the network, environmental maintenance equipment, and even the external star orbits is like a fetus being cut off from nutrients before birth and exposed to the winter sun.

At that time, there must have been extreme chaos.

At the very least, before coming here, Jiang Shu went to some ruins to observe and saw a lot of traces of war.

"and then?"

"Then, the garrison, in a state of confusion, slowly rebuilt order through the main city, barely managed to create a local network, and brought the entire planet back under control."

"But even so, it is of no use in addressing the environmental degradation of the entire planet."

Huang Xuesheng gave a wry smile.

"I see. It must have been quite an achievement for you to have held on until today."

Jiang Shu nodded slightly, looking at Huang Xuesheng in front of him, and couldn't help but feel a little admiration.

After all, for a Venerable Realm expert, escaping alone is not a problem at all if he wants to.

At this moment, this venerable one has undoubtedly bound himself for the sake of others.

So he continued:
"In that case, did you discover anything else afterward? For example, did you obtain any relics or anything like that in the void?"

"No."

Huang Xuesheng slowly shook his head: "In a sense, our planet is like being thrown out of a vortex and landing in some part of the sky."

"Have you really discovered nothing in all these decades?"

Jiang Shu's surprise deepened.

"I would like to explore further, but there's nothing I can do about it."

Huang Xuesheng gave a wry smile: "In previous years, things were fine because it was a mining planet and the energy was plentiful. But as various equipment aged and broke down, the energy consumption of the entire city depended on me."

"Due to a significant lack of technology, many things can no longer be restored. For example, energy storage devices: the energy we build ourselves stores is very limited, and I need to replenish it every two or three days."

"So much so that even if I want to explore the void, I must return within a specified time." (End of Chapter)
