Chapter 38 The Cosmic Rift is Fully Sealed! The Search for the Abandoned Civilization!

Earth, Central Command Hall.

Lin Feng stood before a massive holographic projection, staring at the distribution map of the cosmic rifts.

Within the entire Milky Way Galaxy, there were still 98 rift projections that had not been sealed. Each rift projection was continuously releasing monsters from alien civilizations, threatening the safety of Earth Civilization.

[System Prompt: Total Sealing of Cosmic Rifts task has been activated]

[Remaining Rift Projections: 98]

[Resources Required for Sealing: 1 million Cosmic Energy Cores per rift]

[Total Resources Required: 98 million Cosmic Energy Cores]

[Estimated Completion Time: 30 days]

"We have 1 billion Cosmic Energy Cores in remaining resources," Lin Feng said as he looked at the data. "It's enough to seal all the rifts."

Tian Jian stood beside him: "But the problem is, we need to handle 98 rifts simultaneously. If we seal them one by one, the efficiency will be too low."

Li Xue added: "Furthermore, as the sealing progresses, the rift projections might sense it in advance and launch a total offensive."

Lin Feng nodded: "Then we'll seal them all at once."

He looked at the holographic projection and issued the command.

[Initiating Total Sealing Plan for Cosmic Rifts]

[Participating Fleets: 1 million Void Warships]

[Participating Players: 8 billion]

[Sealing Strategy: Simultaneous sealing of all rifts]

Days 1-10: The War to Seal All Rifts

On the first day, 1 million Void Warships set out simultaneously, heading for the locations of the 98 rift projections.

8 billion players were distributed near the various rifts, ready to respond to the rift projections' counterattacks at any moment.

[Day 1 Sealing Progress]

Betelgeuse Rift: Sealing progress 20%, encountered a Level 6 BOSS counterattack, successfully killed.

Sirius Rift: Sealing progress 18%, encountered a Level 6 BOSS counterattack, successfully killed.

Alpha Centauri Rift: Sealing progress 19%, encountered a Level 6 BOSS counterattack, successfully killed.

As the sealing progressed, the rift projections began to sense something was wrong.

[Day 3: Rift Projection Total Offensive Initiated]

The 98 rift projections launched a total offensive simultaneously, and countless Level 6 Civilization monsters swarmed out of the rifts.

[System Warning: Encountered a total offensive from the rift projections]

[Total Monster Count: 10 billion]

[Battle Situation: Intense]

"All warships and players, counterattack with everything you've got!" Lin Feng ordered. "The sealing must not stop!"

The main cannons of 1 million Void Warships fired simultaneously, and 8 billion players formed a defensive line, engaging in a fierce battle with the monsters from the rift projections.

The battle lasted for a full 7 days.

[Casualty Statistics]

Players Killed: 5 million

Warships Lost: 1,000

Sealing Progress: 98%

Day 10: Sealing the Last Rift

On the 10th day, the last rift projection was located at the edge of the Milky Way Galaxy, a rift known as the "Star Abyss Rift."

The scale of this rift projection was larger than any of the others, and the monsters it released were even more terrifying.

[Star Abyss Rift Level: Peak Level 6 Civilization]

[Guardian Monsters: Level 7 Void Monster x1, Level 6 BOSS x10]

"A Level 7 Void Monster?" Tian Jian said in shock. "This is a Level 6 rift, why is there a Level 7 monster?"

Lin Feng narrowed his eyes: "It's probably because the Star Abyss Rift is close to the universe's boundary, making it more susceptible to the influence of higher civilizations."

He took a deep breath and decided to go there personally.

"You all continue sealing the other rifts; I'm going to the Star Abyss Rift."

[Universe Dimension Walk: Activated]

Lin Feng's figure vanished instantly, reappearing before the Star Abyss Rift in the next second.

A terrifying pressure emanated from the rift as a Level 7 Void Monster stepped out.

"A peak Level 6 Civilization rift projection?" the Level 7 Void Monster sneered. "Even if you are at the peak of a Level 7 Civilization, you are no match for me."

Lin Feng said nothing and attacked directly.

[Civilization End: Final Judgment]

A blade of light capable of tearing the universe apart swept through, and the Level 7 Void Monster's body was instantly split in two.

[System Prompt: Successfully killed a Level 7 Void Monster]

[Item Obtained: Level 7 Civilization Law Fragment x1]

Lin Feng looked at the law fragment in his hand and took a deep breath: "I see, so rift projections also contain law fragments from higher civilizations."

He turned toward the Star Abyss Rift and began the sealing process.

[Star Abyss Rift Sealing Commencing]

[Sealing Progress: 1%... 50%... 100%]

[Star Abyss Rift has been sealed]

[Total Sealing of Cosmic Rifts Complete]

[Remaining Rift Projections: 0]

Day 11: Celebration for the Total Sealing of Cosmic Rifts

At Earth's Central Square, 8 billion players gathered together.

Lin Feng stood on the high platform in the center of the square and announced a major piece of news.

"Today, we have completed the total sealing of the cosmic rifts." His voice spread across the entire Earth Civilization via system broadcast. "From this day forward, the Milky Way Galaxy will no longer be threatened by monsters from alien civilizations."

The cheers were earth-shattering.

"But this is only the beginning," Lin Feng continued. "Before the Universe Creator left, they said that there are many abandoned civilizations and universes within the Multiverse. We need to find them and rebuild them."

"The next target—"

He pointed toward the starry sky.

"—the 3rd Universe."

Days 12-30: Exploration of the 3rd Universe

Lin Feng decided to explore the 3rd Universe. This was a universe where civilization had collapsed; its resource abundance was medium, and its danger level was medium.

The exploration was divided into two phases.

From days 12 to 20, they explored the collapsed planetary belts and discovered a large number of abandoned civilization ruins.

Within these ruins, Lin Feng found three abandoned civilizations.

The first civilization: Mechanical Civilization, which was once a Level 6 Civilization, but because it relied too heavily on machinery, the civilization eventually collapsed.

The second civilization: Psionic Civilization, which was once a Level 6 Civilization, but because of internal conflicts, the civilization eventually collapsed.

The third civilization: Biological Civilization, which was once a Level 5 Civilization, but because it could not adapt to the changes in the cosmic environment, the civilization eventually collapsed.

[Abandoned Civilizations Discovered: 3]

[Civilization Reconstruction Resources: 1 billion Cosmic Energy Cores per civilization]

[Total Resources Required: 3 billion Cosmic Energy Cores]

"3 billion Cosmic Energy Cores..." Lin Feng looked at the data. "We still have enough remaining resources to rebuild these 3 civilizations."

From days 21 to 30, Lin Feng began rebuilding these 3 abandoned civilizations.

Mechanical Civilization Reconstruction: Invested 1 billion Cosmic Energy Cores to rebuild the core systems and the planets of the Mechanical Civilization.

Psionic Civilization Reconstruction: Invested 1 billion Cosmic Energy Cores to rebuild the Psionic Network and the holy lands of the Psionic Civilization.

Biological Civilization Reconstruction: Invested 1 billion Cosmic Energy Cores to rebuild the Biosphere and the homes of the Biological Civilization.

30 days later, the reconstruction of all 3 abandoned civilizations was complete.

[Civilization Reconstruction Complete]

[Mechanical Civilization: Restored from a collapsed state to a Level 6 Civilization]

[Psionic Civilization: Restored from a collapsed state to a Level 6 Civilization]

[Biological Civilization: Restored from a collapsed state to a Level 5 Civilization]

[3rd Universe Exploration Resource Consumption: 3 billion Cosmic Energy Cores]

Days 31-60: Establishing the Cross-Universe Civilization Alliance

After the reconstruction of the 3 civilizations was complete, Lin Feng decided to establish a Cross-Universe Civilization Alliance.

[Cross-Universe Civilization Alliance Declaration]

We, civilizations from different universes, hereby swear:

We shall jointly protect the peace of the Multiverse.

We shall jointly combat the stagnation of cosmic laws.

We shall jointly promote the continuous evolution of civilization.

We shall establish a civilization alliance that will never need to be restarted!

Representatives from the 4 civilizations (Earth Civilization, Mechanical Civilization, Psionic Civilization, and Biological Civilization) jointly signed the alliance declaration.

[Cross-Universe Civilization Alliance Established]

[Alliance Members: 4 Civilizations]

[Total Alliance Combat Power: 4 Level 6 Civilizations]

[Alliance Fleet: 4 million Void Warships]

[Alliance Players: 32 billion]

Lin Feng stood on the rostrum of the alliance assembly and announced the alliance's next goal.

"Our next target—"

He pointed toward the stars.

"—is to find more abandoned civilizations, rebuild them, and have them join our alliance."

Days 61-90: Exploration of the 4th Universe

Lin Feng decided to explore the 4th Universe. This was a universe where civilizations flourished; its resource abundance was high, and its danger level was high.

The exploration was divided into three phases.

From days 61 to 70, they explored the flourishing planetary belts and discovered 7 active civilizations.

The levels of these civilizations ranged from Level 3 to Level 6.

From days 71 to 80, Lin Feng conducted contact and negotiations with these civilizations.

In the end, 5 civilizations agreed to join the Cross-Universe Civilization Alliance.

From days 81 to 90, these 5 civilizations officially joined the alliance.

[Cross-Universe Civilization Alliance Members: 4 → 9]

[Total Alliance Combat Power: 4 Level 6 Civilizations → 7 Level 6 Civilizations + 2 Level 5 Civilizations]

[Alliance Fleet: 4 million → 9 million]

[Alliance Players: 32 billion → 72 billion]

Days 91-180: Comprehensive Alliance Construction

Lin Feng began the comprehensive construction of the Cross-Universe Civilization Alliance.

The alliance established unified command systems, resource management systems, technology research and development systems, and fleet command systems.

The alliance began joint research on how to break cosmic laws and how to achieve the continuous evolution of civilization.

[Alliance Construction Achievements]

Established Cross-Universe Communication Network: Real-time communication is possible between the 9 civilizations.

Established Cross-Universe Resource Network: Resource sharing and mutual development.

Established Cross-Universe Defense Network: The fleets of the 9 civilizations can support one another.

Established Cross-Universe Research System: Scientists from the 9 civilizations jointly study cosmic laws.

180 days later, the Cross-Universe Civilization Alliance had become the most powerful civilization alliance in the Multiverse.

Day 181: Volume 4: New Era Arc Begins

Lin Feng stood on the high platform of the alliance headquarters, staring at the starry sky.

He took a deep breath and, through the cross-universe communication network, announced a major piece of news to all civilizations in the alliance.

"From this day forward," his voice spread across the entire Multiverse via system broadcast, "we shall open a brand-new chapter—"

"—Volume 4: New Era Arc!"

"We will find more abandoned civilizations and rebuild them."

"We will combat the stagnation of cosmic laws and achieve the continuous evolution of civilization."

"We will establish a Multiverse civilization alliance that will never need to be restarted!"

Cheers resounded throughout the entire Multiverse.

Lin Feng looked at the stars, a flash of determination in his eyes.

"The true challenge has only just begun."
