Amidst the great explosion, the Seven Emotions Sword seemed to be unaffected in the least. The red light it emitted became even more demonic-looking as it shattered the Morning Star’s body bit by bit.
Catherine looked at the condition of the mecha’s body from the monitor, and her countenance turned increasingly grim.
“Fang Xingjian! Stop it quickly! Do you guys know the value of this spaceship?!
“Lunatics! You bunch of lunatics! You guys have no idea what you’ve destroyed!
“Damn it! I won’t let you guys off! There will be people seeking revenge for me!
“Hahahaha, everyone will die! Everyone will die! No one can escape the end result in this game! I’ll be waiting for you guys down there!”
Amidst Catherine’s crazy laughter, her body was completely engulfed by the red sword light. Then there was a great explosion that was comparable to a supernova explosion.
A piercing white light sustained for an entire 12 hours, and the whole starry space-time was thrown into chaos and disorder.
When Fang Xingjian, Ulpian, the Crown Princess, and the Silver Mage King once again stepped foot into the three-dimensional material world, there was nothing there except a stretch of darkness.
“It’s a pity. There are too many secrets in the Morning Star that’s worth researching. There’s nothing left now.” Ulpian shook his head, and his eyes filled with pity.
“That might be so.” The Silver Mage King nodded. The gaze in his eyes was deep as hell and seemed to be emitting an unfathomable glow.
“At least we’ve gotten several thousand planets and a population of over ten billion.” The Crown Princess’ gaze became scorching hot. “If we make good use of these resources, we’ll be able to get many times stronger.”
“That’s right.” Fang Xingjian nodded and threw out the star-capturing devices that contained several thousand planets from the high-dimensional Sword Realm.
“There are a total of 4,323 planets, out of which there are 4,000 resource planets, 102 stars, and 221 civilization planets,” Fang Xingjian said. “However, the situations in these 221 civilization planets vary. Some of them are ancient feudal civilizations, and some are modernized societies. There are also some societies with supernatural powers, but the strongest in these societies would only be about at tier three or four of the Divine level.
“The other things we’ve obtained are 103 spiritual ability engines, the remaining population of over ten billion people on Morning Star, and ten members of the God Massacre Team who have battle prowess comparable to tier six of the Divine level.”
Golden light flashed in the Crown Princess’ eyes and she asked, unable to hold it in, “How are we going to split them?”
Fang Xingjian said outright, “I want the 221 civilization planets and the ten billion people from Morning Star. You guys can split the rest.”
The Silver Mage King raised his brows. He had not expected that Fang Xingjian would raise this condition.
In theory, the most precious things amongst these were those spiritual ability engines, the God Massacre Team, and the 102 stars. Those were all super good stuff.
On the contrary, the civilization planets and Morning Star’s remaining population would not only be unable to supply much resources. They would also be a burden.
The Silver Mage King did not understand why Fang Xingjian would make this choice. He turned to Fang Xingjian and asked, “Fang Xingjian, are you sure that you’ll treat these people well?”
“Don’t worry, I won’t turn them into sacrifices,” Fang Xingjian said calmly.
Seeing that the Silver Mage King wanted to ask further, Ulpian said, “Don’t worry, I can assure you that Fang Xingjian won’t ill-treat these people.” Ulpian had performed the Seven Emotions Sword Technique jointly with Fang Xingjian earlier. Although he did not manage to probe the principles behind where the Seven Emotions Sword’s power source came from, he had some guesses.
The reason why Fang Xingjian wanted so many people was naturally so that he could let the Nine Lives Helix root deeply into the group consciousness, allowing him to perform the Sattva Sword Technique at any time and place.
After all, although the Seven Emotions Sword was powerful and could make use of emotional changes to allow him to rapidly enter deep into the group consciousness, he would have to start from scratch every time. There was no permanent connection with the world, preventing him from performing the Sattva Sword Technique.
Although the Silver Mage King still had some doubts, he did not continue pursuing this topic since Ulpian had given his assurance. After all, he had faith in Ulpian’s character.
Fang Xingjian took all the civilization planets and Morning Star’s remaining population while the rest of the things were left to be split amongst Ulpian, the Crown Princess, and the Silver Mage King.
The Crown Princess frowned slightly when Fang Xingjian took away all the people and seemed as if she wanted to say something, but she eventually did not do so.
Even though she also needed a population of people to strengthen her Dragon Qi and thus the prowess of the Son of Heaven’s Sword Manipulation Art, her contribution in this battle was a far cry from Fang Xingjian’s. With her pride, it was impossible for her to lower her stance and fight for them.
Therefore, when the three of them split the remaining loot, Ulpian asked for 3,000 resource planets and 52 stars since he had made the greatest contribution amongst the trio.
The Silver Mage King and the Crown Princess each received 500 resource planets, 25 stars, and 5 members of the God Massacre Team.
The spiritual ability engines would be jointly researched and shared by everyone.
After splitting all the spoils of war, the group once again traversed the quantum foam and returned to the spot where Earth should be in the solar system. The group returned to Miracle World while Fang Xingjian stayed in the solar system and started to calculate the Earth’s orbit, wanting to return Earth unscathed.
Then after spending three hours, Fang Xingjian finally perfectly derived the position where Earth should be in its orbit, its angle, its rotation speed, and other statistics.
He carefully released the planet-capturing device and returned Earth to its spot.
With a series of waves spreading out in space, an invisible vortex suddenly magnified rapidly in void space. Brilliant colors gushed out fiercely from void space and then gathered together, turning into Earth’s appearance.
To the people on Earth, the entire process was only such that the starry sky had suddenly disappeared, and all organizations had lost contact with outer space. An unknown light source had suddenly appeared in the sky, bringing about dark days and bright nights. Earth had stopped spinning on its axis and orbit, but there still existed an unknown power that formed gravity.
The planet-capturing device could compress and contract space to capture the entire planet, as well as provide living environments of varying degrees.
However, the people on Earth did not know about these. Therefore, the world had been instantly thrown into great chaos.
Still, after ten or more hours, everything returned to normal. It made everyone suspect if everything they experienced earlier was just a dream or if God was playing a joke on mankind.
Looking at the Earth that was moving normally, Fang Xingjian let out a breath. This matter was finally resolved. However, he did not bother with the matters in Earth’s society first. Instead, he focused his attention onto the high-dimensional Sword Realm.
The next thing he had to deal with was these people in his hands. One thing was for sure, there was no way that they could be kept in his high-dimensional Sword Realm for the long-term. After all, in the high-dimensional space-time, ordinary living creatures would not be able to sense space-time and would all turned into vegetative state, having no thoughts or ideas of their own.
Since they could not be placed in the high-dimensional world, they could only be placed in the three-dimensional material world.
Amongst the three-dimensional material worlds, only Miracle World and Earth could be considered as Fang Xingjian’s territories.
