789: The villagers invite you to join the spirit realm...

Upon hearing the words that suddenly came out of Yang Dian's mouth, Dr. Bai suddenly felt his cranial nerves tingle.

"Why are you saying this out of the blue?"

"Did you discover a problem?"

With a flick of Yang Dian's finger, Dr. Bai felt the entire world begin to dim, turning into black and white.

Only a beam of light fell from the horizon, shining upon a Little Fatty who appeared somewhat distracted.

The Little Fatty sensed something and began to look around.

But everyone else remained completely unaware of the world's change; they continued talking and laughing, continuing to look forward to the future as they had been.

In his confusion, Dr. Bai heard the light, melodious sound of a harp resonating from the Little Fatty.

"This..."

Before he could ask anything, dust, made somewhat brilliant by the Tyndall effect, began to gather toward the Little Fatty's shoulders, eventually reflecting a small angel with wings on its back, appearing about three years old, plucking the strings with its fingers.

The small angel, who had been happily playing the harp while swinging its legs, seemed to sense the two men's gaze. After its body stiffened, it dissipated into a handful of bright light spots, which gathered behind the Little Fatty to form a pair of large wings, then slowly faded and finally disappeared.

Dr. Bai's expression turned somewhat dark:

"An angel?"

"A Western Legacy, or a method they left behind?"

"There are cameras everywhere in the base city, and the virtual cabins have human condition monitors that can detect the information of the human body entering them."

"This Little Fatty is named Yang De. Apart from being a bit of a shut-in, his behavioral patterns and strength improvement speed are no different from other Mars immigrants."

"Why can he hide his secrets under the surveillance of the smart brain?"

Yang Dian lowered his eyes, "Who said an angel must be a method of those people in the West?"

"The Emerald Dragon Star has Winged Humans, and the Winged Humans possess an Angel's Feather."

"Could it be that the Angel's Feather was also obtained by the Winged Humans crossing the sea of stars to Earth and taking it from those people in the West?"

Dr. Bai's brow furrowed deeper:

"Then what is going on with this Little Fatty?"

"If it's not a method of those Western people, could it be a method of an Alien Planet civilization?"

"If it is an alien civilization, why would an alien civilization target this unremarkable Little Fatty?"

"Could Earth also have been targeted by them? Should we conduct a screening of Earth?"

Yang Dian remained silent, simply pointing once more at the Little Fatty who was looking around.

The black and white world returned to normal, and the world became colorful once again.

Or rather, all the energy that had turned the world black and white gathered behind the Little Fatty, forming a counter-clockwise rotating Taiji vortex.

"The vortex is just something I simulated; it does not exist in the real world, but in the spiritual and Soul world."

"Only by adjusting one's mental fluctuation frequency to the same level as the vortex can one see it."

Speaking to this point, Yang Dian looked at Lao Bai again:

"Under non-special circumstances, if the Soul strength is lower than ten thousand, it is impossible to actively adjust one's mental fluctuation frequency to be in sync with it."

Dr. Bai did not want to hear Yang Dian acting like a riddle-maker:

"Speak plainly."

Yang Dian let out a breath:

"Remember the nine great super-level civilizations?"

Deep within Mars, Lao Bai's rhythmically pulsing brain paused:

"Are you saying we've been targeted by some super-level civilization?"

"Who is it?"

"Divine Realm, Heavenly Court, or Shan Hai, Truth?"

Lao Bai did not mention the Nuo Ling Civilization.

After all, the Nuo Ling Civilization follows the path of technology, and the situation on the Little Fatty seems more like a Cultivate method.

Yang Dian shook his head slightly to indicate that everything Lao Bai said was wrong, then, under Lao Bai's puzzled gaze, uttered two words:

"Spirit Realm."

Dr. Bai was stunned:

"Spirit Realm?"

"That most mysterious of the nine great super-level civilizations, the one that even the Myriad Heavens Reincarnation Path only mentioned in passing, without a detailed introduction?"

"How do you know it's the Spirit Realm that has targeted us?"

"Mental synchronization," Yang Dian said concisely:

"As long as one maintains synchronization with the Spirit Realm's fluctuations, one can obtain information from the Spirit Realm."

As he said this, the solemn expression on his face faded, and his expression relaxed significantly.

After obtaining information from the Spirit Realm, Yang Dian developed the thought that 'Earth might really be the protagonist, and he is the protagonist among protagonists.'

After all, judging from the information just obtained, the Spirit Realm seems overly friendly toward the Human Race.

Seeing that Lao Bai still had a confused look, Yang Dian added:

"As for more, don't ask; it's useless even if you do."

"The Spirit Realm doesn't allow it to be spoken of. Even if it were said, you wouldn't be able to hear it, and even if you did hear it, you would automatically forget it."

"If you want to know related information, try your best to improve your own Soul strength, and after reaching the basic requirements, synchronize with the Spirit Realm."

"In short, for us, the Spirit Realm is, for the time being, a good thing."

Speaking to this point, Yang Dian beckoned to the Little Fatty again.

The Little Fatty, who had just been somewhat at a loss, appeared before the two of them.

The Little Fatty, who had suddenly arrived in the sky from the ground, had just begun to flail his limbs in bewilderment when he heard a voice that made him feel at ease.

"Hello, little comrade."

"I am Yang Dian, Commander of the Expeditionary Force, and this beside me is Bai Ge, Deputy Commander of the Huaxia Expeditionary Force. Can you tell us what has been happening to you?"

Lao Bai glanced sideways at Yang Dian.

Since when did he become the Deputy Commander of the Expeditionary Force?

The Little Fatty, who had calmed down at the sound of Yang Dian's voice, was somewhat excited:

"Commander? Dr. Bai?"

"You can detect the abnormalities in me?"

"Wah~~~ Finally, someone has paid attention to me."

In just an instant, Li Xiang burst into tears with a wail:

"Commander, you don't know how I've spent these past two years."

"I called the Special Administration Bureau and the Martial Security Bureau, but they would hang up as soon as they answered."

"I submitted the abnormalities about myself to the smart brain, and the smart brain only gave [Abnormality report received, please wait for the investigation results]."

"I went to the police station to find the police, but as soon as I talked to them about what was happening to me, they seemed to have collective amnesia and forgot I existed. Except for subconsciously avoiding me when they walked, I was just like air."

"Wah~~~ I've finally found the organization."

While crying, the Little Fatty noticed the azure light spots flickering at the edge of his vision again.

With a movement of his consciousness, the light spots expanded, turning into two lines of text.

[Suitable target detected, can invite them to become a Spirit Realm Walker.]

[After a successful invitation, Spirit Realm Contribution +1000.]

Just after reading this line of text, the text turned into an arrow, with the tip pointing directly at Yang Dian.

Seeing this, the Little Fatty forgot to cry, only subconsciously sniffling before saying blankly:

"Um... why is there only one arrow?"

"Why isn't there one for Dr. Bai?"

Lao Bai's face darkened, and Yang Dian curled his lips:

"Dr. Bai's focus has been on rapidly advancing technology, neglecting Martial Dao Cultivate."

"So, he hasn't met the Spirit Realm's invitation conditions for the time being."

The Little Fatty then revealed a look of realization, and proceeded to send a Spirit Realm invitation to Yang Dian.

Then, a soft chime that seemed to originate from the Soul resonated within Yang Dian's cranium.

"Ding~"

"Villager invites you to join the Spirit Realm..."
