176: Chapter 176 Space Pirates, the Cultivation System of the Great Universe!

In the conference room.

Listening to Jia Yan's words.

Li Daguo and the others couldn't help but exchange glances, communicating silently with each other.

It must be said.

The information from the Great Universe held immense temptation for them.

Moreover, they were very eager to know what unforeseen circumstances might occur when merging with the Great Universe.

Having finally endured through the primary Civilization Assessment.

They really didn't want any trouble to arise at the critical moment of merging with the Great Universe.

However, they didn't quite dare to fully trust Jia Yan's words either.

As for a face-to-face meeting.

Although Jia Yan's aura seemed to be only at the Quasi-Saint level, there was no guarantee he wouldn't pull out some cosmic technology they couldn't handle, threatening their safety.

So, the risks were still considerable.

Therefore, they needed to carefully deliberate on Jia Yan's request for a while.

Just as everyone was about to discuss and give Jia Yan a reply later.

Jia Yan's voice sounded once more.

"I understand your concerns. It's normal not to trust me."

"But as a civilization that has just stepped into the primary stage, if you don't understand what will happen or what accidents might occur when merging with the Great Universe, that would be a real pity."

As these words fell.

They truly made Li Daguo and the others' hearts tighten.

The meaning was clear. This was hinting that there might be dangers during the merger with the Great Universe.

This left them with almost no choice.

"Great Nation, this is a matter of great importance. I think we can try to negotiate. I'll go down and talk to him later. You all observe from the shadows. If anything unexpected happens, abandon me immediately and kill this guy."

In the conference room, a God-level Expert stood up, frowning, ready to step forward.

"My strength here is the weakest. Let me go instead. If danger arises, there's no need for too many scruples. Also, I'm more familiar with the base's layout. If I need to escape, I'd have a better chance."

At this moment, Zhu Tianzheng, from a corner, spoke up unhurriedly.

Immediately after, more and more people stood up, voicing their opinions, wanting to be the one to go.

However, in the end, it was Li Daguo who made the decision.

Li Daguo himself would go!

The main reason was Li Daguo's proficiency in spatial manipulation.

If they really encountered a situation, Li Daguo would be the one with the best chance to escape or even counter-kill.

After everything was decided.

In the blink of an eye, Li Daguo appeared inside the cage, sitting directly opposite Jia Yan.

"You!"

"Space Law?"

Faced with Li Daguo's sudden appearance, Jia Yan was genuinely startled, his face full of shock.

However, Jia Yan quickly composed himself and began scrutinizing Li Daguo anew.

"Not the complete Space Law, but it's already outrageous enough."

Jia Yan muttered softly to himself, secretly breathing a sigh of relief.

A cultivator capable of practicing Space Law at the Star-Treading Level was an outstanding figure even within the Great Universe.

To find one here, in this remote primary civilization, and one so young at that, was truly somewhat unbelievable.

Watching Jia Yan mumble to himself and talk on, Li Daguo also frowned slightly.

This Jia Yan really didn't seem very reliable.

However, out of caution and courtesy, Li Daguo still began conversing with him very amiably.

"Due to certain considerations, it's better for us to talk here. Although we haven't left, it's already face-to-face."

"I'd like to understand what will happen when Blue Star merges with the Great Universe, as well as some of the circumstances within the Great Universe."

Hearing Li Daguo's words.

Jia Yan shrugged, indicating understanding, then answered Li Daguo's questions without hesitation,

"Generally, when a primary civilization merges with the Great Universe, they first come into contact with cosmic primordial energy from the Great Universe. This usually causes the original planet to undergo some expansion and strengthening."

"After complete integration, the people of your civilization can cultivate by absorbing cosmic primordial energy. In the short term, your civilization will experience a good period of advancement."

"However, after you merge, the most important thing is to join the nearest Federation. Otherwise, there's a high probability you'll be enslaved by some Cosmic Star Pirates, who will plunder your planet's essence."

"Oh, there's some bad news. Your planet has very poor luck."

"The nearest Federation registration office is thirty light-years away. With your current technological level and strength, reaching it in a short time is impossible."

The information Jia Yan blurted out in one breath.

Left Li Daguo and the group of God-level beings listening from above utterly astonished. The amount of information was simply overwhelming.

And upon hearing that Blue Star might be enslaved by Cosmic Star Pirates.

Everyone's expressions immediately turned grave.

Had Blue Star just escaped the quagmire of the Civilization Assessment only to face danger again?

"If we can't reach it physically, can we use the virtual network?" Li Daguo said calmly at this point.

The virtual network originated from the cosmos; they currently could only use Blue Star's local network.

If the virtual network could connect to the cosmic servers, then perhaps they could perform some operations through it.

Hearing about the virtual network, Jia Yan was genuinely surprised again.

"You've even accessed the virtual network?"

Possessing both a planetary defense array and the virtual network... this Blue Star didn't seem much like a weak civilization that had just passed the primary Civilization Assessment!

Jia Yan then nodded and said, "Using the virtual network is indeed possible. But the prerequisite is that you connect to the Great Universe servers. And to connect to those servers, you also need to register at a Federation station."

Hearing this, Li Daguo and everyone in the conference room felt their hearts tighten once more.

So that meant...

If they were unfortunately discovered by Cosmic Star Pirates now, it would be a certain death sentence?!

Immediately after, Li Daguo asked Jia Yan another question,

"Has Blue Star been discovered by Cosmic Star Pirates yet?"

Regarding this question, Jia Yan smiled and said, "That's unclear. Those guys are massive in scale, deeply entrenched, and can be found in any corner of the universe. Whether your planet has been discovered or not, I have no way of knowing. It's possible it already has been."

Hearing this.

Both Li Daguo and everyone in the conference room fell into silence.

Jia Yan's words...

They truly couldn't find any fault with them.

Nor could they find any loopholes suggesting Jia Yan was lying.

Perhaps all they could do now was pray that Blue Star hadn't been discovered by Cosmic Star Pirates yet.

Then.

Li Daguo asked another question.

"Can you tell us about the cultivation realms in the Great Universe? And what realm do we need to reach to get to the nearest Federation registration office as quickly as possible?"

To this, Jia Yan's reply was also very straightforward.

"The cultivation realms are simple enough. Your current Star-Treading Level serves as a dividing line."

"Below Star-Treading Level is the Apprentice Level. Below Apprentice Level is the unranked stage, no rating, collectively called primary cultivators."

"Above Star-Treading Level, there's Star Shattering Rank, Universe Level, Domain Lord level, and Realm Master Level. Each level is divided into nine stages. As for the titled Immortal level above that, there's really no need to know about it. Reaching that realm is practically impossible."

"Forget that level. Actually, in the universe, reaching Universe Level alone is enough to be considered elite and live quite comfortably."

"If you want to cross thirty light-years in a short time, you need to reach at least the Star Shattering Rank level. For those at Star-Treading Level to go, without technological assistance, it would take almost impossible hundreds of years. Even at Star Shattering Rank, it would take over a decade."

"If you could reach Universe Level, that would completely solve the problem; you could get there in a few days. But to reach Universe Level, talent aside, the time required would undoubtedly be much, much longer."
