Chapter 384 Earth's Defense Upgraded, Full Preparation for War

Lu Sheng slept for a full day and night.

When he opened his eyes in the underground chamber of Dengxian Island, the first thought in his mind was not about food, but about the detection wave.

Luo Tianfei made it very clear that that thing wasn't the technology of the Cleaner Alliance. The technological characteristics were completely different, and it was on a higher dimension.

What does this tell us?

This suggests that in this universe, besides the Cleaner Alliance that he has already devoured, there are other civilizations watching Earth.

Lu Sheng sat up from the stone bed, sat cross-legged in meditation for a while, and the small gray world within his body rotated steadily. The five laws of power meshed and operated within it like gears, without wasting a single bit of excess energy.

Early stage of the Spirit Saint Realm.

This level of power, placed within the entire known universe, is already considered to be at the very top of the pyramid. Even the Celestial Saint Ancestor of the Cleaner Alliance was only at the early stage of the Spirit Saint realm, and he was devoured alive.

But Lu Sheng knew one thing very well.

The star-sized remains in the Old God Abyss couldn't even be assessed by the system during their lifetime. That means that above the Spirit Saint Realm, there are Spirit Immortal Realm, Spirit Emperor Realm, and even higher levels.

He had no idea how deep the foundation of the unknown civilization that emitted the probe wave was.

"We must not be careless."

Lu Sheng rolled out of bed, pushed open the stone door, and went out.

The corridor was dimly lit. He took a few steps and then shouted into the communicator, "Luo Tianfei, Dao Yi, assemble in the command center."

Three minutes later.

There were only three people in the command room. Lu Sheng sat in the main seat, Luo Tianfei stood to his left, and Dao Yi stood to his right with a nervous expression.

"Let's talk about defense first," Lu Sheng said bluntly. "What level of attack can Earth's defenses withstand right now?"

A flash of blue light appeared in Luo Tianfei's mechanical eyes, and the data was projected directly onto the desktop.

"Currently, the Earth's outer defense array has been upgraded using star alloy from the Scavenger Alliance headquarters. In terms of physical defense, it can withstand a full-force attack from a peak Spirit Venerable Realm expert for over thirty minutes. In terms of energy defense, it is equipped with twelve anti-rule turrets, capable of effectively killing targets at the Spirit Venerable Realm level."

"However, against attackers at the Spirit Saint realm or higher, the current defense system is severely inadequate. It is estimated that it can only withstand two full-force attacks from an early-stage Spirit Saint."

Lu Sheng frowned.

twice?

He could blast through this defense with a single punch. If it were an opponent at the Spirit Saint Realm, this defense would be as fragile as paper.

"Not enough. Far from enough."

Lu Sheng tapped the table. "Dao Yi, how many of those ancient warship wreckages from the outer perimeter of the Old God Abyss have been brought back?"

Dao Yi quickly pulled out a notebook and flipped through it. "Reporting to my lord! After you gave me the coordinates last time, I organized three transport teams to move the materials. So far, the warship armor materials brought back are approximately... um... the total amount is less than two percent of that ruin."

"Two percent?" Lu Sheng's eyes widened. "Two percent in just two months?"

Dao Yi nearly threw his notebook away, quickly explaining, "My lord, please don't be angry! Those dilapidated ships are each bigger than the moon; our transport ships are like ants trying to move an elephant compared to them! Moreover, the spatial laws there are a complete mess; the warp engines break down as soon as they arrive, so we can only rely on physical power to tow them back bit by bit. It's been over thirty days since we brought them back, and the cultivators are exhausted!"

Lu Sheng remained silent for a while.

Indeed, he had always flown there himself before, without considering the transportation issue. The materials of those ancient warships were even harder than the Scavenger Alliance's star alloy; cutting them was difficult enough, let alone loading them onto ships and transporting them back.

"Moving it like this is too slow," Lu Sheng thought for a moment, "I'll go pull it myself."

Dao Yi was taken aback. "You're going in person?"

"I'm now at the Spirit Saint Realm, and I can use the laws of space at will. I can directly fold and teleport those remnants back; that's more efficient than what you did in a month."

He opened his mouth, but in the end, he could only nod.

Trying to outdo the Lord in efficiency is just asking for trouble.

"But before that," Lu Sheng turned to Luo Tianfei, "you need to analyze the data from that probe wave in detail for me. I want to know exactly what that thing is."

Luo Tianfei nodded and projected a set of extremely complex waveform data onto the table.

"This is the raw data of the probe waves we intercepted. After repeated comparison and decoding, I discovered three key pieces of information."

"First, this probe wave is extremely precise. It can accurately pinpoint the galaxy where Earth is located at a distance of 30 billion light-years. This indicates that the other side possesses space exploration technology at least at the level of a Spirit Immortal."

Lu Sheng's brows furrowed even more.

A technique at the Spirit Immortal Realm level? Then the opponent's strength and foundation are likely no less than, or even greater than, the Cleaners Alliance.

"Second, the probe's scanning range is extremely wide. It not only scanned Earth, but also all the celestial bodies in the three star systems surrounding Earth. This was a large-scale patrol search, not a targeted probe specifically aimed at Earth."

"So, they might not even know I exist on Earth?" Lu Sheng asked.

"It's impossible to confirm at this time. However, based on the scanning pattern of the probe waves, it's highly likely that the other side is conducting a routine interstellar patrol. They detected Earth, but may not have noticed any anomalies on Earth."

Lu Shengwei felt a little relieved.

If it's just a routine inspection, then there's still time to prepare.

"And the third piece of information?"

Luo Tianfei's mechanical eyes flashed.

"Third, within the underlying encoding of the probe wave, I discovered an extremely well-hidden encrypted identifier. After decoding it, I obtained a name."

Luo Tianfei paused for half a second.

"The Divine Court of Myriad Phenomena."

Lu Sheng narrowed his eyes.

Myriad Divine Courts?

He had scavenged a vast amount of cosmic intelligence from the memories of the Celestial Ancestor. Although the Ancestor's withered mind did not contain detailed information about the Old God Abyss, it did mention that outside the star sectors controlled by the Cleaner Alliance, there were several super civilizations of the same or even greater level.

The Divine Court of Myriad Phenomena is one of them.

Moreover, in the ancestor's memory, the evaluation of the Myriad Manifestations Divine Court can be summed up in just four words—"Do not provoke."

"Who are these guys?" Lu Sheng asked.

Luo Tianfei retrieved relevant information extracted from the ancestor's memories.

"The Myriad Manifestations Divine Court is one of the oldest known high-dimensional civilizations in the universe. Its controlled star sector is more than three times the size of the Cleaner Alliance. According to intelligence records from the Cleaner Alliance, the Myriad Manifestations Divine Court possesses at least three experts at the mid-stage of the Spirit Saint realm or higher, the strongest of whom is known as the 'Myriad Manifestations Celestial Venerable,' who is suspected of having touched the threshold of the Spirit Immortal realm."

Dao Yi, who was listening nearby, trembled all over.

There are three at the mid-stage of the Spirit Saint Realm? And there's another one who's suspected to be at the Spirit Immortal Realm?

This guy is on a completely different level from those old bones in the Cleaners Alliance!

Even the strongest member of the Cleaners Alliance, the Heavenly Saint Ancestor, was only at the early stage of the Spirit Saint Realm. He was completely devoured by the Master.

However, the foundation of the Myriad Manifestations Divine Court is clearly much deeper.

"My lord..." Dao Yi's voice trembled, "If these people attack, can we hold them off?"

Lu Sheng did not answer Dao Yi's question.

He leaned back in his chair, closed his eyes, and thought for a while.

Mid-stage of the Spirit Saint Realm.

He's currently at the early stage of the Spirit Saint Realm. If he were to directly confront a mid-stage Spirit Saint Realm opponent, his chances of winning would be uncertain. Not to mention, there are three of them on the other side.

There's also that Myriad Manifestations Celestial Venerable who seems to be from the Spirit Immortal Realm.

What is the concept of the Spirit Immortal Realm? It is an existence where the elemental laws are integrated with one's own Dao essence, and the physical body and spiritual source are transformed into an elemental Dao body. Most of the corpses in those ancient battlefields in the Old God Abyss were Spirit Immortals.

Lu Sheng had witnessed the oppressive aura emanating from those corpses. They had been dead for countless millennia, yet their residual energy could still force even a Spirit Saint realm cultivator to vomit blood.

"Luo Tianfei." Lu Sheng opened his eyes.

"exist."

"Two things. First, raise Earth's defense level again. I'll personally go to the Abyss of the Ancient Gods tomorrow to gather materials. The armor of those ancient warships is harder than any cosmic alloy; bring it all back and use it to cover Earth's outer shell."

"Secondly, from this moment forward, all cultivators worldwide shall enter a state of combat readiness. Those at the Spirit Emperor realm and above shall all begin learning the fusion of laws. Those at the Spirit King realm, increase your training intensity and push your realm upwards. Don't be stingy with the Origin Crystals that are due; distribute them all."

"I want to turn the Earth into an iron hedgehog that even the Spirit Realm can't gnaw on in the shortest amount of time."

"Understood." Consort Luo turned and left.

Dao Yi stood there, wanting to say something but not daring to.

Lu Sheng glanced at him. "Speak your mind."

"My lord, I just want to ask a question," Dao Yi swallowed, "If the Myriad Elephant Divine Court really attacks, what...what do you plan to do?"

Lu Sheng stood up, walked to the porthole in the command room, and looked at the dark night sky outside.

"What should we do?"

The corners of his mouth turned up slightly.

"If they don't come, I'll have to go find them sooner or later after I've used up all the supplies in the Old God Abyss. If they come on their own, that's perfect; it saves me the trouble of running around."

"Whether it's the mid-stage of the Spirit Saint Realm or the Spirit Immortal Realm, in my eyes, they're all dishes that haven't been served yet."

Lu Sheng turned his head and looked at Dao Yi.

"You shouldn't be worried about whether we can win or not, but whether I'll be too full after eating them."

Dao Yi's lips twitched, but he couldn't utter a single word.

Having followed Lu Sheng for so long, he had long been accustomed to his master's attitude of treating the entire universe like a buffet.

But every time I hear it, I still feel a chill down my spine.

Lu Sheng patted Dao Yi on the shoulder. "Alright, stop standing there. Go and call Li Xiaoyao over. I have something to tell him."

Dao Yi quickly ran out.

A few minutes later, Li Xiaoyao dashed into the command room, almost tripping at the door.

"My lord! You summoned me!"

Lu Sheng looked him up and down.

Before setting off for the Old God Abyss, this kid was only at the early stage of the Spirit Emperor Realm. After two months, his aura has stabilized considerably, so he should be at the mid-stage of the Spirit Emperor Realm.

"Not bad, you've improved." Lu Sheng nodded.

Li Xiaoyao was beaming with excitement at the praise. "It's all thanks to the Origin Crystal bestowed by the Lord! I've been practicing for twelve hours every day, without slacking off for a single day!"

"Don't rush to flatter me," Lu Sheng interrupted him. "I'm giving you a task."

"You said it! I'd go through fire and water for you!"

"It's not that exaggerated." Lu Sheng took out a fist-sized dark gold metal block from his storage space and threw it to Li Xiaoyao.

The moment Li Xiaoyao caught it, his arm suddenly felt heavy, and he almost lost his grip.

"What is this thing? It's so heavy!"

"Armor fragments from an ancient warship in the Old Divine Abyss," Lu Sheng said. "Take these to Luo Tianfei and have her analyze the composition of this metal and its forging method. Then organize the blacksmiths to try and replicate it using our existing equipment."

Li Xiaoyao's eyes widened. "Copy? Can this be copied?"

"We'll only know if we try. Even if we can't replicate the original, a 60-70% replica would be fine. Earth's defensive outer shell requires a lot of materials, and transporting them from the Old God Abyss is too slow."

"Understood! I'll take care of it right away!" Li Xiaoyao grabbed the piece of metal and turned to run.

Lu Sheng watched his retreating figure and shook his head.

This kid is certainly enthusiastic. It's just that his strength is lacking. At the mid-stage of the Spirit Emperor realm, he'd be considered top-tier on Earth, but in the universe, he wouldn't even be qualified to carry someone's shoes.

"We need to find a way to further strengthen these people's capabilities."

Lu Sheng muttered to himself as he pulled out the holographic star map from his storage space.

His gaze swept back and forth between the Old God Abyss and the Myriad Manifestations Divine Court several times before finally settling on the Old God Abyss.

"Let's move the goods first. We'll build up our reserves before worrying about anything else."

Lu Sheng put away the star map and strode out of the command room.
