Spiritual energy resurgence? My former empress wife has also revived!

China National Space Administration, Luna Project Command Center.

From all over China, aerospace workers who have signed confidentiality agreements are suppressing their excitement and celebrating silently.

This "Moon Goddess Project" can be described as a complete success.

They launched their lunar rover faster and with greater precision than the White Eagle Nation, heading towards the Moon Palace and making contact with the Moon Goddess.

In its haste to compete with the Central Plains, the White Eagle Kingdom also launched a lunar rover, but due to the rushed planning, the launch failed, resulting in losses of over a billion US dollars.

This was unbelievable to the aerospace workers of the Chinese nation.

Their total planned expenditure, converted to US dollars, is around 200 million.

Your White Eagle Country spent over a billion dollars directly. How much of that Commissioner Smith actually embezzled?

"Chief Engineer Lu, this is a letter of commendation from above, congratulating us on the complete success of our lunar exploration program."

An aerospace worker came up to Chief Engineer Lu and said excitedly.

The letter of commendation came directly from the Council of Seven, the highest authority of the Chinese people.

It praised the efforts of aerospace workers and congratulated China on its further advancement in aerospace capabilities.

It also expressed their relief at having established contact and trust with a reincarnation of a Taiqing Realm being located on the moon.

In this chaotic era, the most important indicator of which country can maintain order and gain the support of more reincarnated beings from the Taiqing Realm will be the one that wins the great struggle in the future.

Wang Shu is located on the moon. If Earth does not establish contact with her in advance and help her regain her strength, it will be very difficult for her to complete the "identity verification" and regain her power on her own.

This is a competition where every second counts.

If the White Eagle Kingdom gets there first, it also has many reincarnations of powerful figures.

It can be said that whoever contacts Wang Shu first will have the opportunity to form an alliance with her.

Chief Engineer Lu was also excited, but as a leader, he was able to remain calm.

He clapped his hands, signaling to everyone, "Alright, our work isn't finished yet."

"Project Luna is also nearing its end."

"The Moon Goddess has signed a contract with the Empress and swore an oath to come to the Central Plains and establish a sect."

"This moon goddess is not only a Taoist practitioner, but also a true deity, a symbol of the moon."

"What does this mean? It means that if the Moon Goddess becomes the Empress's ally and supports the various Xia states, then the entire moon will belong to our Xia states as their own private territory!"

As Earth's satellite and the closest celestial body to Earth, the Moon is the most important vessel for verifying human spaceflight technology and helping humanity to venture into the cosmos.

Only when exploring the moon becomes effortless can exploring other exoplanets become possible.

Even though there are practitioners of Taoism now, it doesn't mean that science and technology have stopped developing.

Top planners and think tanks in various countries have long since concluded that spiritualism is not suitable for all human groups.

Only a minority of people are capable of cultivating the Tao; it is a privilege reserved for a select few, which is detrimental to the overall development of humanity.

Science and technology are the methods that can best benefit the public.

Even those reincarnated top-level beings support the development of science, and even the combination of Taoism and technology.

Technological advancements are essential for creating abundant material resources and driving population growth.

Population growth also increases the probability of cultivators and geniuses emerging, which can be considered the foundation of the cultivation world. It is impossible for the leaders of those major sects not to see this.

Even if those reincarnated powerful beings still live in seclusion in their celestial realms and do not concern themselves with worldly affairs, the emperors of the major dynasties will still strongly support technological development.

Technological advancements and abundant material resources contribute to order and the rule of these emperors.

This is a positive cycle.

This is why, today, great powers are competing in the joint progress of spiritual cultivation and technology.

If one could monopolize the moon's resources and turn it into their own territory, what a tremendous advantage that would be in competition between nations.

As a high-ranking official in the space agency, Chief Engineer Lu was well aware of the grand plans designed by the higher-ups, and he himself was one of the implementers of these plans.

Chief Engineer Lu took a deep breath and ordered his subordinates, "Make contact with the Moon Goddess and tell her that we have fulfilled our agreement with her and can begin the final stage."

The so-called final stage is when the Moon Goddess Wangshu, having regained her strength, personally takes action, kills another Moon Goddess, and seizes control of the Taiyin Star.

From this day forward, there will only ever be one Moon Goddess, and that is Wangshu!

……

In the Moon Palace, Wang Shu was sitting listlessly on the laurel tree.

She wore a silver-white moon-like long dress, and one of her slender, beautiful legs dangled down a tree branch.

Her snow-white feet were encased in white silk stockings, and the ankles, faintly visible between the skirt and the stockings, were captivating.

Her gaze kept drifting to the silent moon carriage, and occasionally to another palace not far from her, wondering to herself, "Why hasn't that empress contacted me yet?"

She made a vow with the empress, promising to act according to her plans.

Otherwise, Wang Shu would have already stormed into another palace alone and killed the moon goddess who dared to compete with her for the Taiyin star.

Having recovered to her peak strength as limited by the Great Dao, Wang Shu no longer fears the other Moon Goddess, unlike when she first awakened.

At that time, she needed to compete fairly with another moon goddess, which made her uneasy.

But now, she has unlocked her full potential and is poised for final victory. She can't wait to ascend to the heights to meet another moon goddess.

At this time,

The lunar rover moved slightly.

Wang Shu was startled and immediately composed herself, her bored expression vanishing.

Her clear, moonlit eyes glanced at the moon chariot, so aloof, so distant, so indescribably noble.

A respectful voice came from inside the moon chariot: "Moon Goddess!"

Wang Shu was taken aback. It wasn't the Empress, but a mortal?

She immediately became more casual.

There's nothing to pretend about in front of ordinary people.

With her former cultivation level of Taiqing Realm, even a single expression or emotion from her was enough to inspire awe in mortals; she didn't need to put on an act in front of them.

She casually asked, "Where is the Empress?"

"His Majesty is busy with important matters and is unable to contact you, so he has asked us to contact you."

"Oh? What did that woman want to tell me?"

"The Emperor says you can proceed with the final step of the plan now."

The voice from inside the moon chariot, aided by the array, remained clear even at such a great distance: "The Emperor also said that, after you have resolved your own troubles, as agreed, you need to leave the Moon Palace and come to Earth."

Wang Shu sat up straight, suppressing her excitement.

Alright, it's finally time for the God of Month to make his move. You dare to scare me? Watch as the God of Month strikes with full force!

[○･｀Д´･ ○]

She slowly rose from the laurel tree, her mind a jumble of thoughts, yet outwardly she maintained an air of quiet authority.

Her long, moon-like hair cascaded down like a waterfall, and her silver-white dress concealed her graceful and delicate figure.

Wang Shu descended among the laurel blossoms, her jade-like feet, wrapped in white socks like cicada wings, were barefoot. She walked gracefully among the flowers, her feet lifted, yet untouched by dust.

She is the mistress of the Moon Palace, the symbol of the Moon Star, and everything on the moon is under her control. How could the scattered moon dust possibly taint her noble body?

Walking among the flowers, arriving at the Moon Palace, Wang Shu stood with her back to the moon chariot, exuding aloofness and arrogance: "Go and tell that Empress that once I kill the other imposter, I will fulfill my promise to her."

"However, there is one thing I need you to do for me."

A respectful voice from a member of the space agency came from the lunar rover: "Please give your command, Moon Goddess."

Wang Shu said calmly, "Since there are so many reincarnations of the Taiqing Realm, it is also possible that he has been reincarnated. I need you to go and find his whereabouts for me."

"I suppose you know who I'm talking about."

The space agency member cautiously asked, "You mean, the Confucian sage?"

"Yes, that's him!"

After all,

Wang Shu, head held high and chest out, strode out of the gates of the Moon Palace.

She stood at the entrance, looking at another, even older palace, its overall architecture rough like gravel, and with a soft hum, walked towards it, stepping on the moonlit sand.

……

Earth, China, Space Administration.

The staff of the space agency looked at each other in bewilderment.

Chief Engineer Lu frowned, suddenly realizing that things weren't so simple after all.

Having read "The Legend of the Moon Goddess," he had expected that the Moon Goddess would go to find the reincarnation of the Confucian sage.

But then he suddenly thought, what if that Confucian sage had not been reincarnated in China, but in another region?

What if that Confucian sage reached a cooperation agreement with those in power and practitioners in other regions or countries?

Given the feelings this moon goddess has for that Confucian sage, she would probably immediately leave the Central Plains to find him.

Soon, Chief Engineer Lu shook his head.

This is a problem he doesn't need to think about; the Empress probably already has a solution.

With the Empress's wisdom, it's impossible that she hadn't anticipated this.

But the fact that she still went to such lengths to help the Moon Goddess suggests that she had planned this all along.

Now all they have to do is wait quietly for the Moon Goddess Wangshu to achieve final victory.

At that time, Project Luna came to a successful conclusion, and they completed their mission and gave their due to the nation.
