"Honey, why don't you give us some gene repair medicine too, to improve our physical condition?" Wei Qingqing said.

"Yes, yes, if it weren't for Zheng Dongfang, we would have drunk it already..." said Aunt Liu.

"Okay, but you can't drink too much. You must take it according to the instructions and dosage, otherwise it might harm my son..." Yang Ming said, as a bag of fresh milk suddenly appeared in his hand.

"Mmm..." The two women quickly responded, happily accepted the drink, and then ran to the side to share it, while Yang Ming continued to cultivate ordinary bio-engineered humans.

Only two ordinary bio-engineered humans were successfully cultivated. Of course, this wasn't done using auspicious gene samples, but rather because the biochemical instrument itself contained Yang Guizi's gene sample. This biochemical instrument doesn't have its own culture dishes, so there's no need to clean them after each use to ensure accuracy. All gene samples are stored in the instrument's built-in gene bank, and Yang Guizi's gene sample was stored there.

"From now on, you two will be called Chunlan and Qiuyue..." Looking at the two beauties in front of him who looked exactly like Yang Guizi, Yang Ming put away the biochemical equipment and said calmly.

"Yes, Master..." the two women quickly bowed and replied.

"Good luck and good fortune, go find them some clothes..." Yang Ming instructed.

"Yes..." Ji Xiang Ruyi stared blankly at the large pile of white flesh in front of her, especially the 20 women who looked exactly like them. She was stunned. Only after hearing Yang Ming's instructions did she come back to her senses and run back into the house to find clothes for them.

After the women finished dressing, Wei Qingqing and Aunt Liu also completed their gene repair. They didn't dare to increase the dosage, so their physical condition improved instantly after taking it. They felt refreshed and had much more strength. They were as light as swallows, as if they could fly with a light leap.

"Good luck and all, you two keep an eye on the house..." Yang Ming instructed, then waved his hand, "Alright, let's go, let's go plant some trees in the backyard..."

Leaving Jixiang Ruyi to guard the house, the group of 25 people went into the back garden together.

If we're talking about the largest space in the backyard, it has to be the egg-laying dragon's breeding farm. Yang Ming also plans to plant the World Tree here.

Yang Ming, accompanied by 24 beautiful women, stood in the dragon breeding farm, estimating its size.

"Hmm, just enough..." Yang Ming nodded, then waved his hand, and the two egg-laying dragons that were lying on the ground taking a nap disappeared instantly, along with all the trees in the farm.

"That's amazing! Just like that, you turned this place completely bare. You're even better than a cleaner..." Aunt Liu exclaimed in amazement, giving Yang Ming a thumbs up.

"What cleaning lady??? That's so vulgar..." Wei Qingqing rolled her eyes, stretched out her little hand, and gently twisted the soft flesh of Aunt Liu's waist.

"How annoying..." Aunt Liu said coquettishly, hiding behind Yang Ming.

"Alright, alright, you two stop fooling around. I'm telling you, the World Tree is huge. You two stand behind me in a bit and don't run around. Otherwise, if the World Tree crushes you, you won't even be able to save yourself..." Yang Ming said.

"Oh..." the two women responded and quickly hid behind Yang Ming.

Yang Ming waved his hand, about to transplant the World Tree from the space, when Wei Qingqing suddenly grabbed him and said, "Wait, wait a minute..."

"What's wrong???" Yang Ming asked, puzzled.

"How can you call a halt at such a crucial moment? You're making Yang Ming impotent again..." Aunt Liu glared at Wei Qingqing with dissatisfaction.

"Ugh..." Wei Qingqing rolled her eyes at Liu Sao, then clung to Yang Ming's arm, saying, "You forgot??? There's something down there, won't it break???"

"How could it possibly be crushed??? That's a spaceship..." Yang Ming understood immediately. There really was a spaceship below. "That can fly in space; its pressure resistance is absolutely incredible..."

"The problem is, the spaceship is only 10 meters underground. How can the World Tree take root in such a shallow layer?" Wei Qingqing said.

The World Tree's root system extends about 300 meters underground to support its trunk, as clearly stated in the World Tree's introduction.

"What you said is also a problem, so let's put it away..." Yang Ming thought it made sense, and then waved his hand to put the spaceship deep underground into the farm space.

"You two, don't leave my side for more than three steps..." Yang Ming gave them another warning, but he was still a little worried, so he ordered the 22 cyborgs to surround them. He also instructed Ya Ya to monitor the situation underground at all times. After doing all this, he gently waved his hand...

With a gentle wave of Yang Ming's hand, a giant tree, about 50 meters in diameter and 100 meters tall, suddenly appeared. This giant tree looked just like a huge button.

The giant tree suddenly appeared, slicing its roots into the ground as easily as cutting tofu. Then, with a cracking sound, the ground cracked open, followed by a slight tremor that spread underfoot, like a minor earthquake. Among the group, only Wei Qingqing and Aunt Liu were a little unsteady on their feet, but they were quickly supported by the nearby cyborgs.

"Wow..." Ya Ya exclaimed in surprise, "What a powerful root system! It's incredibly flexible and resilient. Not only can it break through rock layers, but it has also completely filled the space originally occupied by the spaceship. Currently, it's extending its roots underground..."

"That's good. I was worried that its roots would damage the rock strata, and then our whole house would be ruined..." Yang Mingchang breathed a sigh of relief and said to Ya Ya.

After about ten minutes, the World Tree finally stabilized. The towering, verdant giant tree was level with the mountaintop. Its massive canopy, like a giant umbrella, blocked out all starlight in the darkness. Its emerald leaves, as translucent as jade, shimmered with a mysterious and noble light in the night.

"So beautiful..." Wei Qingqing looked up at the World Tree, her heart filled with awe, and murmured to herself.

"Wow, it's so tall..." Aunt Liu looked up, staring in disbelief at the giant tree.

"So many...so many..." Yang Ming wasn't awestruck by the form of the World Tree; he was awestruck by the dotted lines that appeared in his mind...

After the World Tree stabilized, a vast and boundless virtual universe appeared in his mind. Within this virtual universe were countless simulated galaxies, some round and some flat. Among these simulated galaxies was a disk-shaped virtual galaxy. At a certain point within this disk-shaped virtual galaxy, countless radiating dotted lines extended. Some of these lines ended within the local galaxy, while others detached from the disk-shaped galaxy and connected to other virtual galaxies. It looked like a dense spider web, or a puppet on strings, inspiring a desire for control...

Yang Ming knew very well that the other end of these dotted lines was the adult World Tree that had not yet recognized a master...

"What's wrong???" Wei Qingqing looked at Yang Ming with some confusion after hearing his murmur.

Aunt Liu also looked at Yang Ming, her face full of questions.

"So many, so many life-bearing planets..." Yang Ming turned his head, looked at the two women, and said somewhat blankly.

"So many???" Wei Qingqing was stunned. "How much is 'so many'???"

"Phew..." Yang Ming let out a long breath, slowly coming back to his senses, and said, "I don't know, anyway, there are just a lot..."

"Then..." Aunt Liu urged eagerly, "What are we waiting for??? Let's hurry up and set off to see another planet..."

"Alright, let's go take a look at the closest inhabited planet in the Milky Way to our Earth..." Yang Ming said confidently, waving his hand. The World Tree trembled slightly, and a huge light gate, fifty meters long, fifty meters wide, and fifty meters high, appeared in front of everyone.

"You two go in first. If you can breathe, come back immediately..." Yang Ming casually picked two cyborgs and said.

"Yes..." The two cyborgs quickly agreed and then entered the portal without hesitation.

Less than half a minute later, the two women returned in unison. One of them said in a clear voice, "Master, we can breathe. We can roughly estimate that the oxygen content in the air behind the door is about 1.5 times that of Earth..."

Upon hearing the words of this cyborg, all three of them were immediately intrigued, their hearts pounding.

"What about gravity???" Yang Ming asked.

"I don't feel anything..." The two women exchanged a glance, shook their heads in unison, and said.

"I knew it..." Yang Ming said, looking annoyed. "You two escort Chunlan and Qiuyue over there to check. If you feel the gravity is too strong, come back immediately. If it feels normal, stay there for half an hour and then come back..."

This is the simplest way to test gravity. At the very least, Chunlan and Qiuyue are cyborgs, so even if their physical bodies are really destroyed, they can be easily restored in the bio-machinery.

"Yes..." The two cyborgs and Chunlan Qiuyue quickly agreed and walked towards the portal.

"Wait, wait, take this with you..." Just as the two cyborgs were escorting Chunlan and Qiuyue about to enter the portal, Wei Qingqing tossed them a cell phone. "Remember to take pictures..."

"Yes..." The four women, holding their phones, bowed and responded, then entered the portal without hesitation.

"Guess what's on the other side of the door???" Wei Qingqing excitedly grabbed Liu Sao's hand and chattered away.

"How would I know??? I mean, can't we be a little more capable??? Calm down, calm down..." Aunt Liu said, pretending to be calm and giving Wei Qingqing a sidelong glance.

"Calm down???" Wei Qingqing glanced at Liu Sao disdainfully, raised her hand, and said, "If you're going to be calm, why are your hands shaking???"

"It's you who's shaking, that's why I'm shaking too..." Aunt Liu blushed and retorted.

"Alright, alright, you two stop messing around. If you want to know what's behind the door, you'll find out in 30 minutes. Hmm, there are still 28 minutes left. Hehe, maybe it's Chunlan and Qiuyue's corpses..." Yang Ming was quite nervous at first, but seeing the two women's nervousness, he wasn't nervous anymore.

"Stop being disgusting. I just checked, and those two girls' clothes haven't changed at all. You know, the buttons on their clothes are silver buttons sewn on with silk thread. If the gravity is really that great, even if they don't feel it, the buttons on their clothes will definitely fall off..." Wei Qingqing said.

"Oh?? I didn't expect you to be so thoughtful???" Yang Ming was quite surprised. When did his usually carefree wife become so attentive?

"Of course I'm careful, the clothes they're wearing are mine..." Wei Qingqing pouted.

Half an hour later, four figures emerged from the portal.

"How is it??? How's the gravity???" Wei Qingqing, who had been waiting anxiously, pulled Liu Sao to greet them.

"Replying to the mistress, the gravity is normal, exactly the same as on Earth..." Chunlan Qiuyue quickly replied.

The three of them breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, only to hear Wei Qingqing ask again, "So what did you film???"

"Replying to the mistress, we only took some pictures of the scenery, including two very, very big trees..." The two cyborgs quickly handed the phone back to Wei Qingqing.

"Two trees???" Yang Ming was slightly taken aback. He was certain that one of them was definitely the World Tree, but what about the other one? It definitely wasn't an immature World Tree, because an immature World Tree could never be described as "huge". All World Trees look like ordinary trees before they reach maturity. Only when they reach maturity will they rapidly grow into towering trees.

After taking the phone, Wei Qingqing couldn't wait to open the pictures. Together with Aunt Liu, the two little heads huddled together to admire the alien scenery. The first picture showed two huge trees growing side by side...

"This tree looks familiar..." Wei Qingqing frowned, feeling as if she had seen this tree somewhere before.

"Familiar???" Yang Ming leaned closer, pushing the two women's heads aside, and looked at the picture on the phone. "Isn't this the Tree of Life???"

"No wonder it looked familiar, so this is the World Tree..." Wei Qingqing suddenly realized.

"I never expected that the Tree of Life would grow together with the World Tree. Since there is a Tree of Life on this planet, the air quality must be absolutely top-notch..." Yang Ming exclaimed in amazement.

"Gravity is fine, and the environment is also very good. The fact that the Tree of Life can grow to adulthood in a natural environment means that its cosmic environment is also very good, and there is basically no chance of a large comet impact..." Wei Qingqing analyzed.

"Great! Let's set off quickly then..." Aunt Liu said excitedly upon hearing this.

Wei Qingqing looked at Yang Ming, her eyes filled with hope.

"Okay..." Yang Ming was also quite excited. After all, he was about to leave Earth for the first time, and his feelings were no less than those of the first American astronaut who left his footprints on the moon.

"Hurry up, hurry up..." Upon receiving Yang Ming's nod, the two women excitedly grabbed him and ran quickly toward the portal.

"Everyone, follow me..." Yang Ming was pulled by the two women. He only had time to turn his head and call out to the sentient beings behind him before they pulled him into the portal of light.

It was like piercing a thin membrane; there was no feeling of traveling through a time tunnel as described in science fiction movies. As soon as everyone stepped out, they found themselves directly on solid ground, and their eyes were suddenly opened up.

"Wow……"

The three of them had just emerged from the portal when they were immediately captivated by the sight before them and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

This is a vast plain, with lush green trees, colorful flowers, and tender grass glistening with dew, like a giant carpet quietly adorning the earth, forming a beautiful picture against the backdrop of a clear blue sky.

After all 22 cyborgs arrived, Yang Ming waved his hand and immediately stored the World Tree in his farm space. Then, with another wave, he took out a World Tree from his space and planted it where the World Tree had just grown. In the virtual universe in his mind, the dotted line from Earth to here had completely turned into a solid line.

"From now on, this planet will be my agricultural planet..." Yang Ming felt quite happy. After all, this was his first agricultural planet, the first planet that belonged entirely to him.

"Really? Really??? This planet is ours???" Wei Qingqing felt so happy she was about to faint. Generally speaking, owning a house in a big city is already quite good, and having a car is even better. But who would have thought they would own a planet???

I wonder if, in the future, girls' standards for choosing a husband will rise to the point where the man must own a private planet? Wei Qingqing thought mischievously.

Although Aunt Liu didn't say anything, her eyes were already sparkling as she looked at Yang Ming.

"Master, you're getting too excited. It seems we haven't scanned this planet yet. You know, according to the Alliance's rules, a planet that has already produced a civilized race cannot become an agricultural planet for large landowners..." Ya Ya promptly poured cold water on Yang Ming's enthusiasm.

"Gah..." Yang Ming was half-happy, but then he froze. The excitement of stepping onto an alien planet for the first time made him forget the Alliance's regulations for "agricultural planets".

"What's wrong?" Wei Qingqing asked anxiously as she watched Yang Ming's expression suddenly change.

"I forgot, the condition for this planet to become an agricultural planet is that there cannot be any civilized races..." Yang Ming said awkwardly.

"Huh??" Wei Qingqing was also stunned, then looked annoyed. "Oh, that seems to be the case..."

"So, it's not even certain whether this planet belongs to us???" Aunt Liu was quite frustrated, her face full of disappointment.

"It's alright, I'll have Ya Ya buy a probe satellite right now, and we'll start a full-scale scan of this planet..." Yang Ming said, instructing Ya Ya to purchase the satellite.

Purchasing the satellite didn't take long. Soon, a metal sphere the size of a basketball appeared before everyone. Yang Ming gently pressed a small protrusion on the top of the metal sphere, and the sphere, like a ladybug, spread its two wings and, with a "whoosh," flew into the sky, becoming a small dot of light before disappearing...

"This satellite doesn't have many functions: communication and detection. Its biggest advantage is its speed. It only takes three minutes to orbit the Earth. If we wait patiently here for three minutes, we'll have the results soon..." Yang Ming said.
