My monster derivative skills are the orthodox ones

Chapter 350 We Want to Ascend

The president took the initiative to make goodwill, but he didn't accept it. Is he that arrogant?

The people on the StarNet were in an uproar once again. They had no feelings for Li Ye, but their feelings for the Federation were deeply rooted.

and.

In this world, mechanical modification has become deeply ingrained in people's minds; it is the path to advancement for everyone, and everyone strives for it. Yet Li Ye actually said that they had taken the wrong path, fundamentally negating them.

Who can bear this?

Those who have already undergone rehabilitation are especially furious. "You said I went down the wrong path, even though you've removed my arms and legs."

If you take the wrong path, can you reattach your arms and legs?

Are we to say that if we can't bring them back, they've become victims of the times?

Therefore, even if this path is wrong, it will continue to be wrong...

……

"Arrogant! There are countless paths in the world, what gives him the right to deny us?"

"We strongly demand that he be killed."

"President, please kill this madman! We are not afraid of war..."

"You only defeated one interstellar warship, what's there to be so arrogant about? We have hundreds of such interstellar warships."

"Send out the War God and wipe him out. I will never allow such a person to rule us."

"Kill him, don't be a coward."

……

The federal president and others are in a bind. They never expected that their peace signal would be met with such a response. They must be crazy!
Is it okay to offend the entire world?

"Mr. President, what do we do?" the Vice President asked. "Should we go to war?"

Public opinion was boiling over; the entire Federation was enraged by Li Ye's arrogance. If they didn't fight, they would lose the support of the people.

But if we go to war, what will we use to fight?

If Li Ye were truly an immortal, even if he gave away the entire Federation, it probably wouldn't harm them in the slightest.

Giving up the federal government is fine, but the president doesn't want to give up himself too!
“Did he get into the interplanetary network? Notify the technical department to switch our signal over. I want to talk to him.” The Federal President was silent for a moment, then instructed the person next to him, “He didn’t kill anyone from beginning to end, so there’s still room for negotiation.”

……

Li Ye connected to the interplanetary network.

The StarNet is a virtual network that connects brainwaves through a helmet, ultimately creating a virtual avatar in the online world.

Virtual avatars can learn, communicate, simulate battles, and so on in the interstellar network, which is another form of the internet.

Moreover, it seems less convenient than the Internet. On the StarNet, almost all information is presented in video format, with very little text-based information.

Even when searching by keywords, the information you see is all from official announcements. Just like Li Ye, who has just entered the StarNet, he can't see anything except the basic modules.

For the Federation's people, the interstellar network might be a good place to hone their combat experience, but for Li Ye, the interstellar network is of no use other than helping him promote the monsters.

His fighting skills don't need any training at all.

After his attributes were enhanced by the demons, Li Ye had virtually no bottlenecks in learning new things, let alone using the interstellar network to save time.

As for publicity, he no longer needs to do it personally.

"Immortal, is there anything you would like to know?" Mayor Zhao carefully accompanied Li Ye. On the StarNet, he appeared as a middle-aged man with no mechanical parts on his body.

“That’s all.” Li Ye observed the structure of the StarNet, shook his head, and prepared to exit.

Sudden.

Five virtual images of old men flashed before his eyes.

Mayor Zhao suddenly froze: "The President?"

"President?" Li Ye stopped his retreat and looked at the elderly men opposite him.

"Immortal Mu, I apologize for disturbing you." The Federal President bowed to Li Ye first. "I am Tao Qifeng, the Federal President, and I would like to talk to you about the current situation."

"Where are they?" Li Ye asked.

"I am Vice President Du Yu." "Speaker of the Council Jiao Zhihong."

"Defense Minister Song Hui."

Finance Minister Li Zhenxing.

Mayor Zhao looked at the five giants, quietly stepped aside, and breathed a sigh of relief. The power holders at the very top of the pyramid had appeared, and the pressure was finally off him.

"What do you want to talk about?" Li Ye asked with a smile as his gaze swept over the group. The interstellar network was full of virtual avatars, so the Eye of Truth couldn't be used here, which allowed him to perfectly evade detection.

"Immortal, is it really necessary to fight?" Tao Qifeng adopted a very humble attitude. "Actually, we can cooperate and both sides can benefit."

"It's not that I necessarily want to fight. As you've all seen, I don't enjoy killing." Li Ye looked at the president and said, "I just want to help my demons develop a few derivative skills. You can also play along with me in a play: be defeated, run away, be defeated again, until you choose to submit..."

"Mu Ye, what you're doing is going too far!" Defense Minister Song Hui, who had a fiery temper, couldn't help but say, "We've already lowered our stance, do you really think we can't do anything to you? Even if you've mastered immortal magic, so what? In battle, you can't win just by strength."

"If you don't win with strength, how do you win?" Li Ye looked at him strangely. "By begging for mercy?"

"..." The five federal giants.

"Do you really have to do this?" Tao Qifeng asked.

"This is for your own good," Li Ye said. "By telling you in advance that this is an act, at least you don't have to worry about your safety. Once I unlock the derivative skills, we can still cooperate and win together, conquering other worlds together. Follow me, and I guarantee you won't suffer any losses. You call me an immortal, so you must be cultivators..."

"Why should we believe you?" Song Hui interrupted Li Ye and asked.

“I’m all about the power of my fists,” Li Ye glanced at him and said, “Otherwise, I could turn the world upside down, and the effect would be the same.”

“Mu Ye, we’re willing to talk to you because we don’t want to break off relations. You don’t really think we can’t do anything to you, do you?” Vice President Du Yu said.

"So you don't really think that's all the strength I've shown, do you?" Li Ye asked with a smile. "Believe it or not, I can destroy the entire world without killing a single person. You should be glad that I chose this world as my foothold, otherwise, it would be even easier to wipe you all out."

"Mu Ye, can you tell us what your cultivation level is?" Tao Qifeng took a deep breath, suppressing the surging anger in his heart, and asked.

“Golden Immortal,” Li Ye said.

"Golden Immortal?" The five giants of the Federation were stunned again, and Tao Qifeng couldn't help but ask back.

“Impossible,” Du Yu said. “There’s a limit to lying. Liao Zhong was the first time traveler to this world. He’s only been here for nine years. You’re from the same hometown as him. Even if you were a time traveler from the same era, you’ve only been cultivating for nine years. Even if you used all those nine years to cultivate, you still couldn’t become a Golden Immortal.”

"Is it because you're ignorant?" The more Li Ye talked to them, the more confident he became. These guys knew far too little about cultivation.

"Which world did you ascend to?" Tao Qifeng stopped Du Yu from speaking, looked at Li Ye, and asked.

“A world with a celestial court,” Li Ye said.

"Where can one ascend to immortality?" Tao Qifeng asked, his voice trembling with excitement.

"How can one become an immortal without ascending to heaven?" Li Ye retorted.

"Can you tell us the location of that world? Tell us the coordinates, and we can cooperate with your act," Tao Qifeng said impatiently. "To be honest, our expansion is aimed at seeking the path to ascension, finding the Heavenly Court, and undergoing the tribulation of lightning..."

"So, your strength can no longer be suppressed," Li Ye asked, looking at the group.

Sure enough, his guess was correct.

No matter how prevalent mechanical civilization becomes, it is impossible for it to completely replace cultivation civilization within a few hundred years.

After all, in a world controlled by the cultivation civilization, as long as a mechanical civilization emerges, it will definitely suppress them forcefully, and it is impossible to allow a civilization that threatens its rule to develop.

It's quite abnormal that mechanical civilization has developed so rapidly. It would be much more reasonable if the world's top level were still controlled by the cultivation civilization.

After all, only a mechanical civilization capable of rapidly transforming ordinary people into warriors could allow them to expand rapidly throughout the universe.

Mayor Zhao stared in astonishment at the five federal giants, his mind reeling. He felt as if he had overheard some incredible secret. When the five federal giants appeared, their bodies were always covered by exoskeletons. They had always been strong advocates of mechanical modification, but from what they said, they were clearly more interested in ascension.

So, are they actually spiritual practitioners?

Mu Ye is right; they've taken the wrong path.

No.

It's just that ordinary people have gone astray; the higher-ups have always insisted on the path of cultivation, and the entire Federation is merely a tool to serve them.

For a while.

Mayor Zhao was filled with mixed feelings and didn't know what to say.

"Several hundred years ago, it couldn't be suppressed anymore." Tao Qifeng looked at Li Ye, paused for a moment, and said, "In fact, the decline of cultivation civilization was not just because the Federation supported mechanical civilization, but because we really couldn't find a way forward. As our cultivation level increased, we couldn't undergo tribulations, and the spiritual power within our bodies accumulated more and more, leaving us with only one path: exploding and dying..."
