Sequence Ocean Survival: Awakening God-Tier Sequences at the Start

Time flies.

Another half month has passed in the blink of an eye.

Dengxian Island has changed.

No, it should be said that the entire Earth has changed.

Looking down at Earth from space, this blue planet appears to have an additional layer of dark, metallic shell. It's the armor of an ancient warship, cut into plates and welded on piece by piece.

The coverage rate has reached 65%.

The remaining 35 percent mainly consists of a few less important areas in Antarctica and the deep Pacific Ocean, where Luo Tianfei is arranging for manpower to continue construction.

The twelve anti-rule turrets on the Earth's perimeter have all been upgraded. The barrels are no longer filled with ordinary energy bullets from the Scavenger Alliance, but with armor-piercing bullets reforged from ancient metals, plus a high-concentration spiritual energy filler personally prepared by Luo Tianfei.

Luo Tianfei's assessment was that these turrets could now inflict effective damage on targets in the early stages of the Spirit Saint Realm. Although they couldn't kill them, they could at least inflict significant damage.

But what Lu Sheng cared about most was not these hardware components.

What he cares about most is people.

There are currently over three hundred cultivators on Earth who have awakened to the Transcendent Sequence. Among them, fifteen are at the Spirit Emperor Realm, forty-two are at the Spirit King Realm, and over one hundred are at the Spirit Sect Master and Spirit Master Realm combined. The rest are all at the Spirit Apprentice Realm or lower.

This distribution of power might seem acceptable on Earth, but in the context of the universe, it's practically a disorganized mess.

If the Divine Court of Myriad Manifestations were to send any vanguard troops, these people would all be forced to surrender.

"You need to practice."

Lu Sheng made a decision—a global training exercise for cultivators.

He personally devised the training plan.

He personally dedicates two hours each day to guiding the top talents at the Spirit Emperor realm and above in their cultivation of the laws. This isn't the kind of patient, hands-on instruction; rather, he directly uses the oppressive power of the Spirit Saint realm's rules to force them into cultivation.

The method was very crude.

Lu Sheng unfolded his own gray miniature world, covering the training ground, and then established a temporary rule within it: "All cultivators below the Spirit Venerable Realm will experience double gravity within this domain."

Then he sat down to the side, munching on Origin Crystals while watching the intense battle.

On the training ground, fifteen cultivators at the Spirit Emperor Realm were forced to lie on the ground, howling in pain, under double the gravity.

"Stand up, all of you!" Lu Sheng shouted, cracking open a crystal. "If you can't even withstand this much gravity, what will you do when you encounter enemies at the Spirit Saint Realm? They'll unleash their miniature worlds, and you won't even have a chance to escape!"

Dao Yi was pressed so hard that his face was pressed against the ground, and mud kept spitting out of his mouth.

"My lord... could you... be gentler...?"

"Go easy? Would the enemy tell you to go easy during a battle?"

Lu Sheng kicked Dao Yi in the butt. Dao Yi was sent flying two meters away, only to be slammed to the ground with double the force.

"Get up and keep going!"

This training lasted for a full week.

The effect is remarkable.

Although the fifteen Spirit Emperor realm cultivators were tortured to the point of near death, their strength did indeed improve significantly. Their physical bodies were repeatedly tempered under high pressure, and the speed of their spiritual energy circulation also increased considerably. Two of them, with the best talent, even faintly touched the threshold of the Spirit Venerable realm.

Lu Sheng did not personally manage the cultivators at the Spirit King Realm and Spirit Sect Realm, but instead entrusted them to Dao Yi and Li Xiaoyao.

He gave Dao Yi a set of basic cultivation techniques extracted from the memories of the ancestor, and instructed Dao Yi to teach him according to them.

"This technique is the standard teaching material used by the Cleaners Alliance to train Spirit King realm warriors. Although it's not particularly advanced, it's more than enough for your level."

Dao Yi picked up the cultivation manual and flipped through it, almost bursting into tears.

"My lord, what language is this? I can't understand it!"

"The common language of the Cleaners Alliance. Luo Tianfei can translate it; go find her."

"Okay, okay."

Dao Yi took the cultivation manual and ran away.

Besides training, Lu Sheng did something else.

He took out some of the high-dimensional origin crystals he had stored in his storage space and distributed them to the cultivators.

It's not free; there are conditions.

"There will be an assessment at the end of each month. The top three will receive five crystals. The top ten will receive three. The bottom ten will not only receive no crystals, but will also have to train for two more hours. Anyone who ranks last for three consecutive months—get out."

The moment the competition mechanism was introduced, the entire cultivator camp erupted in chaos.

Everyone cultivated like madmen. No one slacked off, no one complained. Because everyone knew that these crystals represented an increase in strength, and strength represented the qualification to survive in the apocalypse.

Moreover, those three newcomers who complained about Lu Sheng's autocratic ways had already been publicly reprimanded by him. After the news spread throughout the cultivator camp, no one dared to gossip anymore.

In half a month, the overall strength of cultivators on Earth increased by about 20%.

Although it is still insignificant in the grand context of the universe, it is at least much better than its previous half-dead state.

That night.

Lu Sheng finished his training instruction and returned to the secret room to meditate.

He closed his eyes, sensing the workings of the inner world within his body.

The five laws of power flowed steadily, and the boundaries of the small world were slowly expanding. The cultivation level of the early stage of the Spirit Saint Realm had been stabilized, but there was still a considerable gap between it and the middle stage of the Spirit Saint Realm.

"Cultivating solely on Earth is too slow."

Lu Sheng opened his eyes and muttered to himself.

The highest quality resources he could obtain on Earth were the ancient warship wreckage he brought back from the Old Abyss of Gods. However, the quality of the remaining fragments of laws within these wreckage varied greatly, and their effect on his current improvement was already quite limited.

There are only two things that can truly enable him to make a rapid breakthrough.

One is the star-sized remains in the deepest part of the Old God Abyss.

The other is a living, higher-order life form.

The stronger the enemy, the greater the source of power within them, and the greater the boost you will receive after consuming them.

"We still need to go out and find something to eat."

Lu Sheng stood up and walked out of the secret room.

He found Luo Tianfei, who was on duty in the monitoring room.

"What new developments have we seen with the probe waves in the past two weeks?"

Luo Tianfei retrieved the latest monitoring data.

"Over the past fifteen days, four probe wave pulses have been captured. The frequency has increased compared to before, and the scanning accuracy has also improved. The most recent pulse scan has been able to precisely locate the Earth itself."

Lu Sheng's gaze darkened slightly.

"Have you locked onto Earth itself?"

"Yes. Furthermore, according to the coding analysis of the probe waves, an additional encrypted transmission channel was added in the two most recent pulses. This indicates that the outpost has begun transmitting data from Earth back to the core area of ​​the Pantheon."

"They've discovered Earth," Lu Sheng concluded directly.

"Yes. And they've likely already noticed the metallic armor on Earth's surface. An anomaly where a planet that should have been a low-dimensional civilization suddenly develops a high-dimensional metallic shell wouldn't be overlooked by any experienced exploration analyst."

Lu Sheng remained silent for a while.

Will they send someone?

Luo Tianfei offered an extremely rational analysis.

"The probability is over 80%. According to the Cleaner Alliance's intelligence files, the Divine Court of All Things operates differently from the Cleaner Alliance. The Cleaner Alliance directly sends legions to attack. The Divine Court of All Things is more cautious; they will first send reconnaissance teams to investigate the situation, confirm the threat level of the target, and then decide on the next course of action."

"Reconnaissance team? What level?"

"According to the established practices of the Myriad Manifestations Divine Court, a standard reconnaissance team is led by a captain at the peak of the Spirit Venerable realm, and equipped with five to eight members ranging from the Spirit Emperor realm to the Spirit Venerable realm. They are well-equipped and skilled in stealth and high-speed withdrawal."

Lu Sheng's lips curled up slightly.

A captain at the peak of the Spirit Venerable Realm?

He is now in the Spirit Saint Realm.

A Spirit Saint Realm cultivator taking down a team of Spirit Venerable Realm cultivators is like an adult beating up children.

"If this reconnaissance team comes, it'll be perfect for me to practice with. It's like a treat delivered right to my doorstep."

He turned to look at Luo Tianfei.

"Keep an eye on them. Let me know in advance when they arrive. I want to personally 'greet' them."

"clear."

Lu Sheng walked out of the monitoring room and stood in the corridor.

He looked up at the light on the ceiling, pondering something.

After the reconnaissance team arrived, there were two ways to handle the situation.

The first method is to eliminate them completely. Clean and efficient, leaving no survivors.

The advantage is that the Divine Court of Myriad Phenomena will not obtain any information in a short period of time.

The downside is that after the reconnaissance team goes missing, the Divine Court of Myriad Phenomena will definitely be on high alert, and the next one that comes may not be a reconnaissance team, but a large army pressing in.

The second option is to leave one or two survivors. Send them back to report that a powerful expert at the Spirit Saint Realm is stationed on Earth.

The advantage is that if the Divine Court of Myriad Phenomena is cautious enough, it may temporarily suspend its attack plan, giving him more time to prepare.

The downside is that it exposes your existence.

Lu Sheng thought for a while and decided to decide based on the situation.

Regardless of the approach taken, one thing is certain.

He always tries a bite of everyone who comes.
