Devouring the Stars: The Lord of the Sky

Chapter 70 Life-Bearing Planet
Meanwhile, just as Kyushu Corporation was embarking on a path of making huge profits.

Having informed Wei Fang that he had gone into seclusion to cultivate, Lu Jin was now tirelessly conducting cosmic exploration.

By channeling his mental energy into the Kunlun Mirror, Lu Jin's consciousness descended into an unknown cosmic void, from a god-like perspective, at the location of a Kunlun Token.

Extending his perspective to the surroundings, after observing for a moment and confirming that the other side was safe and posed no danger, Lu Jin had a thought and used the probe of the Black Dragon Mountain spaceship to teleport to the other side through space.

Looking out over the vast starry sky, Lu Jin glanced at the numerous stars that filled his field of vision, all of which were at great distances, before turning his gaze to the probe's display screen.

Soon, the probe's display screen rapidly showed a large number of 'space debris' such as meteorites and asteroids that were detected from near to far, and which were not of much value.

Suddenly, a flashing green exclamation mark appeared on the screen.

Upon seeing the green exclamation mark on the screen, Lu Jin was overjoyed, feeling that the original will of the primordial universe was still looking out for him.

It's worth noting that the Milky Way galaxy has a diameter of approximately 100,000 light-years.

However, within such a vast spatial range, there are only about 210,000 life-bearing planets, demonstrating the extremely low probability of life appearing on such planets.

The exploration range, spanning two light-years in diameter, did not cover the void between galaxies, yet it discovered a life-bearing planet in less than ten thousand random searches—a testament to the favor of the primordial will.

Upon clicking the green exclamation mark, Lu Jin saw that the inhabited planet was about 0.7 light-years away from his location.

As for further information, the probe could not detect anything due to the great distance; it could only detect that the planet possessed the basic conditions for life.

‘Shua——’

Lu Jin stored the probe in his spatial wristband, communicated with the Kunlun Mirror, and with a thought, his figure disappeared from the spot and teleported 0.7 light-years in the direction of the inhabited planet.

The Kunlun Mirror connects to the sea of ​​primordial laws of time and space in the original universe. Using the Kunlun Mirror to travel through space, the consumption of Lu Jin's own energy is the same no matter how far the distance.

Just like a firecracker, its power is determined by the amount of explosives inside, and has nothing to do with the length and thickness of the fuse.

When using the Kunlun Mirror to travel through space, the primal force or telekinesis that Lu Jin injects into the Kunlun Mirror can only serve as a fuse for a firecracker.

All the energy consumed during the entire journey is paid for by the primordial laws of the universe.

Knowing your own location and the distance to that inhabited planet is equivalent to having approximate coordinates.

When Lu Jin arrived at his new location after traversing space using the Kunlun Mirror, he was already less than 100 billion kilometers away from that life-bearing planet.

It wasn't that Lu Jin didn't want to teleport closer, but the estimated coordinates weren't very accurate and had some error.

After two more space travels, Lu Jin teleported to a satellite hundreds of thousands of kilometers away from that inhabited planet.

'Looks like it's just an indigenous planet?'

After observing for a while and finding no spaceships taking off or landing on this habitable planet, Lu Jin frowned slightly.

If it were just a planet inhabited by native life, it wouldn't seem to mean much to him.

However, since he was already there, Lu Jin took out the detector from his spatial wristband and carefully examined the condition of this life-bearing planet.

Before long, the results of the various detections came out.

According to the probe, this planet with life is nearly spherical, larger than Earth, with an equatorial diameter of about 16,000 kilometers and a polar diameter of more than 15,400 kilometers. The planet's surface area is about 800 million square kilometers.

Of its total surface area, 41.4% is land and 58.6% is water. The planet's surface gravity is slightly stronger than Earth's, approximately 0.14 cosmic units. Nitrogen makes up about 76% of its atmosphere, and oxygen about 23%.
There are two other satellites: one is the one beneath his feet, slightly smaller than the moon; the other is on the other side of the inhabited planet, slightly larger than the moon. Moreover, no trace of mechanical technology or the internet has been detected on this inhabited planet; the main life forms are humans and various animals.

The strongest detected life signals reached stellar level.

However, it should have only recently entered the stellar class, and its level is only the first stellar order.

In addition, there are thousands of planetary life signals on this life-bearing planet, scattered across the land and sea.

Land-based planetary life forms make up about 30%, while marine life forms make up about 70%.

Then, Lu Jinxin had a thought and injected a stream of mental energy into the Kunlun Mirror in his sea of ​​consciousness, activating the remote detection mode.

Soon, the perspective shifted, and what came into Lu Jin's view was a spacious and majestic ancient-style hall.

At the head of the hall sat a middle-aged man dressed in magnificent robes, the very same stellar-level life form previously detected by the probes.

Apart from a red rhombus-shaped crystal the size of a red bean on his forehead, this middle-aged man at the first level of the Stellar Realm looked no different from the Yanhuang people, with yellow skin, black eyes, and black hair.

In the center of the main hall stood many figures, some dressed in fine clothes and others in armor.

These figures also have red rhomboid crystals between their eyebrows, and their appearance is identical to that of the Yanhuang people.

At this moment, the people inside the hall were speaking a language that Lu Jin couldn't understand, so they must be discussing something.

'Unfortunately, it's not a beast, and its level is too low.'

Lu Jin shook his head inwardly with regret.

To him, the corpse of a stellar-level life form was equivalent to a stellar-level life source crystal.

However, they had no grudge against each other, and the other party was human, not a beast of a different species.

Lu Jin, who still has a moral bottom line, wouldn't go so far as to kill the other party directly.

Moreover, the opponent's level is only Stellar Level 1. Considering the drop rate of Life Source Crystals from Earth King-level monsters, its corpse can only be decomposed into a maximum of two Stellar Level Life Source Crystals.

Two stellar-level life source crystals are enough to allow an ordinary planetary peak-level being to break through to the stellar level.

But if it were him, it definitely wouldn't be enough.

The tenfold life gene level gave him a foundation ten times stronger than other cultivators of the same level, but when he simply relied on resources to increase his level, the resources he needed to increase his level would also be ten times that of other cultivators of the same level.

Turning his gaze away, Lu Jin tossed a Kunlun Token toward the desolate satellite beneath his feet, preparing to traverse space and leave.

It's just an inhabited planet with native life that can't connect with the universe. He has no interest in exploring it in detail right now, even if this planet holds valuable treasures.

But at that moment, Lu Jin suddenly thought of a key point.

The speed of immortal gods can easily exceed the speed of light, and they can travel through the dark universe using only their divine bodies.

As long as this place is still within the territory of the human race, it wouldn't be difficult for an immortal god to find the human race's cosmic civilization even without star map navigation by using the dark universe to travel through it.
