576: Subsequent changes, further inheritance, the Great Xia Federation and the great interstellar development! [The Finale]
Over the next few days, many investigators arrived in Hong City.
However, since Xu Lu had not continued developing the Dream World, the focus of these people's research was placed on the existing 'players'.
But even so, the conclusions drawn were astonishing.
Because researchers discovered that these so-called 'players' had genuinely increased their combat power and had all acquired an unknown energy source.
Naturally, the players collectively referred to it as 'Internal Force'.
When the researchers obtained the Internal Cultivation Methods from the military players, they were again surprised to find that these cultivation methods could actually be practiced.
Of course, not everyone could cultivate them, which puzzled the players somewhat.
Because in the Dream World, it seemed like no one was incapable of cultivation.
Perhaps there was some unknown variable at play.
Because the 'Dream Incident' in Hong City had a huge impact, the news could not be controlled, and discussions about the matter gradually appeared online.
In fact, there were discussions before, but they were secretive; now, the topic was openly debated.
Xu Lu, the originator of the incident, was naturally aware of this.
He wasn't too worried. In fact, a few days later, he started itching for action again.
The Dream Messenger skill also had three mandatory uses.
Only after using them up could it be solidified into a permanent ability.
So, seeing that the Dream World had not caused too much impact on the real world,
that night, he initiated the second Dream World event.
And he was surprised to find that creating the dream was no longer limited to the Hong City area.
In fact,
he discovered that he could control the area covered by the dream. The reason he enveloped the entire Hong City the first time was purely because his 'business wasn't proficient enough'.
So, after careful consideration, Xu Lu only activated a relatively small Dream World the second time.
Because the Dream World was small, there weren't many players this time, only selecting a dozen people.
That's right.
These were the people who had gained Divine Abilities in the previous Dream World.
Feng Xiaoxia, Liu Yifei, Yang Mi, and Wang Zuxian were naturally among them.
The central theme of this Dream World was the 'Immortal Hero Genre'.
Xu Lu considered that since the Genre could be realized in the dream, and players even obtained Internal Cultivation Methods and various skills,
could the Xianxia world he created also be realized in the dream, and could the players bring out Xianxia Cultivation Methods?
But clearly, Xianxia was too many dimensions higher than Genre. Even Xu Lu didn't dare let too many people in, so he only selected a dozen or so... A night passed quickly, and the thirteen lucky individuals returned to reality once more.
People like Feng Xiaoxia and Liu Yifei naturally continued to keep a low profile.
Thus, no one knew that they had acquired the Qi Refiner Inheritance.
Of course, also due to the Dream World, their cultivation was not deep; they had just begun.
But this was already terrifying, especially when combined with the Power of Divine Abilities they had obtained.
However, on the other side, the military player who had also obtained Divine Abilities previously reported the situation again.
The 'Qi Refiner Inheritance' was far more shocking than Wuxia Cultivation Methods.
But despite the researchers' best efforts this time, they failed to 'replicate' the inheritance.
This was because the Qi Refiner Inheritance obtained by the military inheritor in the dream came from 'Divine Sense Impartation of Cultivation'.
This concept directly exceeded the scope of understanding for both the inheritor and the researchers.
Even the inheritor could only teach others the cultivation method once his own cultivation reached a certain profound level.
That was clearly impossible now.
Ultimately, the research team had no choice but to give up.
In the time that followed, martial arts flourished in Great Xia.
Since Hong City itself had hundreds of thousands of players, the government immediately announced the most basic cultivation methods.
Those players were granted extremely high status.
They became targets sought after by various official departments or private Martial Arts Schools.
Although their Internal Force was not yet profound, players were still different from ordinary people.
They had reached the 'peak' in the Dream World.
To use an exaggerated analogy, those climbing the mountain cannot compare to the gods descending it... While martial arts flourished, the path of the Qi Refiner remained a relatively rare existence.
In fact, not many people knew about it.
However, besides the Qi Refiner Inheritance, Our CEO Xu's Dream World continued to be created.
Consequently, inheritances like 'Magic,' 'Sorcery,' 'Talismans,' and 'Apothecary' appeared one after another.
A few lucky individuals obtained these inheritances that far surpassed martial arts methods...
As the originator, Xu Lu continued to shoot films, but his focus also shifted to upgrading his existing 'God-tier skills,' especially the Dream Messenger skill, which he developed the most recently.
This was because he faintly felt that this skill could 'Dimensionally Upgrade' the real world.
And if the 'level' of the real world were raised, it would bring immense benefits to him personally.
Similarly, the entire Great Xia gained tremendous advantages under this condition.
This made other countries extremely envious.
The rulers of these countries issued communiqués, hoping to share this 'benefit' with Great Xia.
Some countries even secretly sent people to infiltrate Great Xia, attempting to intercept this National Fortune.
But they didn't know that Great Xia gained these benefits not because of geography.
It was solely due to the existence of Our CEO Xu.
As the Dream Messenger, he was the god of the Dream World he created, and the benefits certainly wouldn't be given to other countries.
Especially those like Japan, Iron Eagle Country, and A San Country.
Five years flashed by.
During these five years, Great Xia's national strength rapidly increased, and driven by martial arts and various miraculous inheritors, it had long become the world's number one power.
This was no longer subject to the will of Japan, Iron Eagle Country, or A San.
In fact, when it came to bare-handed combat power, any ordinary Great Hero citizen could now defeat ten special forces soldiers from other countries.
Although the number of miraculous inheritances like the Qi Refiner Inheritance was still small, Universal Martial Cultivation had already been achieved.
Although people from other countries also secretly obtained martial arts methods, these were essentially 'tailor-made'.
Only the people of Great Xia could cultivate them with double the efficiency, while others found it difficult even to achieve beginner status.
Left with no choice,
people from other countries, such as Iron Eagle Country, Japan, and A San Country, devised other ideas.
For instance, arranging marriages between their citizens and Great Xia citizens, hoping to create mixed-blood offspring this way.
Although most Great Xia citizens urged others not to be fooled,
the people these countries sent to do this were all handsome men and beautiful women, so some short-sighted Great Xia people were tricked.
A few years later, the mixed-blood second generation was born.
People from other countries held great hope that they could steal Great Xia's National Fortune through this method.
However, their hopes were quickly dashed.
Because they discovered in horror that the mixed-blood second generation had absolutely no talent for martial cultivation.
Not a single one!
This situation caused immense suffering for these foreigners, but the Great Xia populace breathed a sigh of relief.
And those short-sighted individuals regretted their actions deeply... Soon, another ten years passed.
In these ten years, the world underwent massive changes.
The first thing to mention was the outbreak of Exotic Beasts.
Exotic Beasts of unknown 'origin' burst forth from the sea.
Except for Great Xia, all other countries were unable to defend themselves and eventually had to seek aid from Great Xia, gradually becoming its vassals.
This brings us to the second point.
That is the establishment of the 'Great Xia Federation,' encompassing all nations.
As the name suggests, Great Xia was the sole leader.
The Great Xia populace held the highest status. Among others who joined the Great Xia Federation, those with martial arts talent had higher status, while the rest became the bottom rung of society... Fifty years later.
A gigantic 'Whale Ship' swept past in the starry sky.
A beautiful little girl curiously looked through the viewport at the Blue Star, which was not far away.
She turned her head curiously and asked the handsome man behind her:
"Dad, is that our Mother Star? It's so beautiful! I've only seen it in the Dream World you constructed!"
Hearing his daughter's question, Xu Lu smiled and said:
"That's right, that's the Mother Star. Thirty years ago, the Great Xia Federation gained the ability to venture into the stars, and the Great Interstellar Development began..."
As Xu Lu softly narrated, the Exotic Beast serving as the 'Whale Ship' beneath their feet let out a cheerful, crisp, long cry.
It was a descendant of the mischievous Little Orca that Xu Lu had enlightened back then. In fact, just like the little girl, it was also returning to the Mother Star for the first time... [The End of the Book.]
