Swallow the starry sky, grind to become the strongest in the universe

Chapter 3, the Book of Cause and Effect, please add some points for me!

That night, on the eastern hemisphere of the planet Light Source, March stretched across the sky.

Deep beneath the Temple of Civilization lies a giant saucer-shaped structure with a diameter of approximately four hundred meters.

This is the extraterrestrial civilization ruins that Master Zhenli accidentally entered back then. It is also a real spaceship, and it is well preserved and can be used for space travel.

Inside the spaceship's control room, Master Zhenli, as was his custom, had the spaceship's intelligent system authenticate with the terminal to obtain secondary control authority.

During this process, Master Zhenli also introduced some common knowledge about the universe to Yu Duan. Although Yu Duan may know more than Master Zhenli, he did not speak rashly.

"A B6-class spaceship... its former owner was most likely a stellar-level expert, so how could he suddenly die?"

Yu Duan was puzzled. Why would a stellar-level expert die inexplicably on the Light Source Star? If he was killed, why was the spaceship so well preserved?
If it was an accidental death, why were there no relatives or friends to claim the inheritance?

Faced with Duan's doubts, Master Zhenli sighed and said, "I have already told you about slavery and biochips. The former owner of the spaceship was a commander under the Crimson Empire's slave legion."

"The reason for the sudden death was that the biochip activated, directly destroying the spaceship's owner's brain. As for the specifics, let 'Number One' explain it to you in detail."

Number One is the name of the spaceship's intelligent assistance system, a new name given by its new owner, Master Zhenli.

"call out!"

Colorful light coalesced into the image of an intelligent bald man, who bowed slightly to Master Zhenli before looking at Yu Duan.

"Former master Collins Barto, a ninth-tier stellar-level powerhouse, served as the commander of the 7th Battalion of the 4th Slave Army of the Crimson Empire..."

Simply put, during a mission, the previous owner of the spaceship activated the biochips of all members of the entire squadron simultaneously, directly destroying everyone's brains.

Biochips are highly technologically advanced and can detect thoughts in the brain, and will counteract any disloyal thoughts that arise.

As the leader of the slave army, Collins Bartolomeo triggered the 'red line' warning ten times in a century, exceeding the maximum threshold, which led to his current fate.

Even the slave army commander is a slave. If the number of times the 'red line' is triggered exceeds the threshold, he will be 'destroyed' directly.

The entire process does not require any manual 'destroy' command; it is a pre-programmed instruction.

If it's a cosmic-level event, things are slightly better. Even if a warning is triggered beyond the threshold, there will be a manual investigation into the cause. As long as it's not a matter of principle, the most that will happen is some form of punishment.

After all, the number of cosmic-level powerhouses is not large for the Crimson Empire, so they are quite valuable.

"Why wasn't the spaceship taken away?"

Yu Duan hurriedly inquired, knowing that this concerned the future of civilization and his own life, and that he could not be careless in the slightest.

The bald man with the crystal head raised his right hand and shot out a beam of blue light, forming a semi-transparent light screen.

"The Blazing Lotus Star was a private spaceship belonging to Barto. Seventeen years before his death, during a routine sky survey mission, he discovered this life-bearing planet, but instead of reporting it, he left his private spaceship here."

"For the next 17 cosmic years, Barto did not return to the star of light until his death."

"According to the analysis, there is a greater than 90% chance that the first 'red line signal' detected by the Barto biochip is an attempt to embezzle the 'Light Source Star'."

"The subsequent multiple red line warnings were most likely triggered because they were considering how to obtain official ownership of the planet and how to sell it."

"Based on probability model analysis, there is a greater than 99.41% chance that the Crimson Empire's official forces are unaware of the existence of the 'Blazing Lotus Star' spaceship and the 'Light Source Star'."

"The remaining 0.59% possibility is that the Crimson Empire's official authorities don't care about the value of 'Light Source Star,' but this probability is almost zero."

After listening to 'Number One's' account, Yu Duan breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems there won't be any major hidden dangers. Even if 'Number One's' analysis and intelligence are inaccurate, they should be roughly correct.

The Crimson Empire had absolutely no idea of ​​the existence of the Radiant Star or the Blazing Lotus Starship.

A B6-class spaceship might not mean much to the Crimson Empire, but a habitable planet is a different story.

Since the Light Source Star is still free, it means that the original Barto handled the situation very carefully and left no trace.

Unfortunately, even with the biochip monitoring in his brain, the final outcome was still quite unexpected!

"Yu Duan".

Kunzhu walked to Yu Duan's side and patted him on the shoulder: "You are already aware of the current predicament facing civilization. The journey into the universe is imminent."

"According to the plan previously set by Master Zhenli, myself, and Shenjian, we will pilot this spaceship into space on the first day of the new year to purchase an A1-class celestial-level large-scale energy shield." "However, Light Source Star still needs a planetary-level officer to oversee it, since the remnants of the sea race have not been eliminated... Can you shoulder this responsibility?"

The first day festival mentioned by the Lord of the Earth is actually the New Year.

As for the remnants of the sea race, they were another aquatic amphibious intelligent race that once existed on the planet Light Source. They were completely defeated with the rise of the Light Source race, but they were not completely wiped out, and most of the sea race still live in the deep sea.

"No problem, I've only just broken through to the planetary level, so guarding the house will be easier for me."

Yu Duan didn't argue and readily agreed.

We must go to the universe, but we need to be careful about the methods and approaches.

There's still half a year of light source until the Sunrise Festival, which is a little over a year, enough time for me to unlock the 'Domain' skill through 'talent' and 'effort'.

At that time, Yu Duan will not need to say anything more; he will naturally be able to enter the universe.

"Then I'll leave it to you, Yu Duan." After saying this, Master Zhenli pointed to 'Number One' and said, "There is a special training area inside the spaceship. Now that you have just broken through, you can use the training environment of the spaceship to familiarize yourself with the changes."

"In addition, there are some combat techniques commonly found among stellar-level warriors. Although they are nothing special in the universe, they are still very precious to us. You can try to learn one or two of them."

Yu nodded: "Okay, thank you, Master Zhenli."

After the small meeting ended, Master Zhenli, Master Kun, and Shenjian all needed to deal with matters in their respective dojos, so they didn't waste any more time.

In fact, according to custom, Yu Duan should also open a temple and teach disciples.

However, Yu Duan was too lazy to do it.

……

A moment later, inside the spacecraft's gravity chamber.

Inside the futuristic silver cabin, Yu Duan stood holding a knife, with a light screen in front of him.

"Based on your physical condition, it is recommended to maintain the intensity at 500 times the gravitational acceleration of the light source star."

After scanning Yu Duan's body data, the intelligent assistant device provided appropriate feedback.

"Okay, then 500 times."

As soon as Yu Duan finished speaking, with a hum, the gravitational field in the gravity chamber increased five hundred times!
Instantly, Yu Duan's body trembled slightly, but then he steadied himself. He then half-closed his eyes, seemingly experiencing the surge of gravity, but in reality, his consciousness was immersed in his mental space.

"【Leap of Dawn】Self-created martial art, level: artistic conception level, can pre-draw on the first level of the body technique of the unity of heaven and man, the price to pay is: to move 100 million kilometers at full speed when using the body technique."

The typical cruising speed when first entering a planetary level is about 1 kilometer per second.

However, the innate ability of the planetary awakening is light. If running on the ground, combined with the speed amplitude of the movement technique, this speed can be easily maintained at 4 to 5 kilometers per second.

"Flying at full speed for 2 hours a day, it will take a little over 30 days to complete the cost of pre-paying for the realization of the unity of man and nature. This is much more efficient than directly improving one's artistic conception."

With a very simple calculation, Yu Duan made a decision almost instantly.

"Pre-drawn - The body technique [Leap of Glow] - A level of enlightenment at the unity of heaven and man."

As soon as Yu Duan had a thought, a strange realization surged into his mind.

Like a fleeting dream, Yu Duan practiced his physical techniques tirelessly for several years in peak mental and physical condition.

Extreme in movement, extreme in artistic conception, extreme in nature... one wonders whether it is Zhuangzi dreaming of a butterfly, or a butterfly dreaming of Zhuangzi.

Outside, Yu Duan stood there with his eyes closed for about ten minutes before slowly opening them.

"So this is what it means to be one with nature, to achieve a perfect state of mind, to return to the world, and to resonate with nature."

Yu Duan felt as if he had become one with nature, and at the same time, his own energy fluctuations were also changing.

It fluctuates at a specific frequency, resonating with the faint energy background radiation of the universe.

[PS: From this chapter onwards, the default unit of time will be Earth time, which is the same as the cosmic time unit in the original work.]
