More than 34,000 people were released by Li Qingyun.
Of course, they were still kept within the Lihuo Palace. It wasn't safe to keep them outside.
After these people were released, their eyes were filled with bewilderment.
The three thousand people from the "Spark Plan" had already guessed their current predicament. Upon seeing Chu Yang, they began to ask with great distress:
"Immortal King! Where is Lord Cang? How is he?"
"Has our world been destroyed?"
"They are still fighting, I don't want to live in苟且偷生, I want to fight with them until the end!"
"......"
These young geniuses had bloodshot eyes, their faces a mixture of anger and sorrow.
Because they were cultivated as the "spark" by Cang Yuan, Cang Yuan had done an exceptionally good job in their mental conditioning and ideological education. At least now, Chu Yang couldn't see a single person who wanted to live in the new world in苟且偷生.
He suddenly felt that these three thousand people were also a great treasure!
Looking at these young people, he said calmly, "I regret to inform you that the time flow in this world is different from your homeland. So, while you thought only a short time had passed, in reality, the battle on your side has already concluded."
Everyone's faces turned pale. Someone asked with unwillingness, "Then what was the outcome?"
"The outcome is as you imagine. There were no miracles. My students gave their all for you, killing two ninth-realm Sky-Slaying Clan members. The Sky-Slaying Clan's casualties in this war were more than ten times that of the human race. It sounds glorious, but defeat is defeat. I can observe that the Immortal Emperors of your world also have very weak auras and are on the verge of falling. The human race's defeat caused a strong backlash on the destiny they carried."
After hearing Chu Yang's words, everyone present showed expressions of pain. Although they already had an answer in their hearts, it was very difficult to accept when it was confirmed.
Chu Yang gave them some time to process their emotions, as everyone in his world had been destroyed, leaving only them.
After about a few minutes, Chu Yang interrupted their weeping.
"So, let the crying stop here. This world is called Blue Star. You are currently in a secret realm, where the time flow is two hundred times slower than the outside world..."
Chu Yang introduced the current situation of Blue Star to all of them.
Everyone listened attentively, seeming to possess an innate sense of trust in Chu Yang.
This was the influence on his demeanor brought by the "Human Emperor Dao." Chu Yang's current identity was the Human Emperor of several cultivation worlds.
"The civilization here is different from yours. Here, everyone's life is protected by the highest laws. Ordinary people and cultivators are treated equally. Therefore, your previous 'survival of the fittest' mentality will not work here."
Everyone's eyes widened. This meant no fighting?
Without fighting, where would progress come from?
Chu Yang pondered for a moment, then said, "Perhaps many of you think Blue Star is a very safe world, but I regret to tell you that Blue Star currently only has me as an Immortal King, and not a single Immortal Emperor. More importantly, in seven months, the Sky-Slaying Clan will also invade Blue Star."
Everyone's faces changed drastically. They had initially thought this was an incredibly powerful world, but they never expected that there wouldn't even be a single Immortal King yet. This made them feel incredibly insecure.
Wouldn't this be another world that would soon be destroyed?
Seeing their reactions, Chu Yang smiled and said, "But there's no need to be too nervous. Because my twelve students will definitely ascend to the Emperor's position one after another within these seven months. Moreover, they are not ordinary Immortal Emperors; each of them is a peerless genius. Words are not enough, let me show you some scenes..."
Chu Yang waved his hand, and a segment of memory entered their minds.
It recorded many battle scenes of the Ice Sword Mercenary Group, including their feats of killing eighth-realm powerhouses with their Nascent Soul realm cultivation.
This segment of memory shocked them so much that they almost forgot their sorrow.
"Hiss—"
A synchronized gasp of air echoed through the scene.
Those chosen for the "Spark Plan" were undoubtedly geniuses. But after witnessing the battle scenes of the Ice Sword Mercenary Group, they realized that this was the true pinnacle of genius!
They even suspected that once they became Immortal Kings, they could gang up to defeat an Immortal Emperor.
What a terrifying prospect!
"Is this... is this real?"
"The person who brought us back is actually this powerful..."
"Too strong, how can I ever reach their level?"
"......"
Chu Yang explained, "Because here, they have enjoyed the best resources from the very beginning. They have no barriers in cultivating cultivation methods or spells. This is a unique advantage of Blue Star. If you wish to live on Blue Star, you must fight for Blue Star after seven months."
"However, I have other choices for you. You can choose to stay on Blue Star and contribute to it. Once we resolve the issues on Blue Star, we will sequentially go to those worlds occupied by the Sky-Slaying Clan and reclaim the worlds that belong to our human race. But on Blue Star, you must be obedient. If you kill randomly, you will be killed without mercy, no room for negotiation."
"You can also choose to go to other worlds. My students have saved many worlds invaded by the Sky-Slaying Clan. Some of these worlds, even with victory, suffered greatly. They urgently need population and help with various constructions."
"You can also choose to go to those worlds with highly developed cultivation civilizations, so advanced that even the Sky-Slaying Clan dares not provoke them. Those worlds are very safe. You can develop freely there, or even settle down and live a peaceful life. If you don't want revenge, you can completely choose this option."
Chu Yang offered them three choices: one was to stay on Blue Star and follow his arrangements; another was to participate in civilization reconstruction in worlds similar to Cultivation World No. 399, the world where Yan Xing was from; and the last was to go to a relatively safe world where they didn't have to worry about Sky-Slaying Clan invasions.
Moreover, in those places, they could choose to develop for a period and then return to help Blue Star, or they could stay there on their own.
This should be a fitting fulfillment of Cang Yuan's entrustment.
This was a major event, and everyone began to whisper amongst themselves, making the scene suddenly very noisy.
For these three thousand people, revenge was something they could never let go of, and to achieve revenge, they had to rely on the power of Blue Star.
