Chapter 478: Chapter 11 Planet Will
The trembling starry sky once again led to the complete disappearance of the Spirit World.
The world of the Kui Tian Monarch had lost the opportunity to observe Wang Sheng’s world; peeking into a world whose distance was unknown required extremely stringent conditions.
Of course, Wang Sheng himself was unaware of this, but seeing the Spirit World completely vanish and the absence of the Kui Tian Monarch, he still breathed a sigh of relief.
“He didn’t show up, which means he either has more secretive methods, or he thinks it’s unnecessary to waste his effort. Either way, the next time we meet is likely to be the real battle.”
The complete collapse of the Spirit World was a good thing for the world but also a notification.
A notification of another world’s impending invasion.
“I should head back, not knowing how much time there is before that world invades.”
Sighing, Wang Sheng was about to return.
But at that moment, a thought appeared.
“Twenty to thirty years!”
That was the message conveyed by the thought.
Wang Sheng was startled inside; the intention behind the thought was quite clear—it was answering his question.
The Kui Tian Monarch’s world would invade in twenty to thirty years.
But where did this thought come from, to know the details so clearly?
It was then that he felt a sense of dizziness.
Since he began his cultivation, the only time he had experienced dizziness was when the “Heavenly Father” first pulled him into the Spirit World.
And now, despite his great strength, he was experiencing that sensation again.
Wang Sheng subconsciously tried to resist.
But the power was incredibly strong; he couldn’t fend it off.
When he came back to his senses, he immediately took defensive measures, but this time, it seemed that there was nothing that wanted to attack him.
Before him was a vast expanse of starry sky, and beneath the stars, the most conspicuous thing was a huge planet.
The planet was teeming with life, full of countless creatures.
“This is…”
Wang Sheng saw a familiar place, the region called the Central Plains by the Datong.
With his power, even across countless distances, he could make out,
“How did I end up here?”
This planet was clearly the place where he lived; the stars had told him that their world was spherical.
Wang Sheng had never given it much attention.
But only when looking at it from the outside could one truly appreciate the magnificent beauty of a Life Planet.
It was an indescribable beauty; in the vast starry sky, every Life Planet was unique.
He became somewhat immersed in this sense of beauty.
However, he hadn’t forgotten his predicament.
He had been forcibly pulled here, to see this beautiful planet.
“Who are you, and why have you done this?”
No one answered.
But there was another thought.
This time the thought didn’t have a clear meaning, but Wang Sheng could sense that it was a plea for help.
It seemed to be in some sort of crisis.
And it seemed the thought was deliberate; Wang Sheng also felt the source of this thought—it was from the planet before him.
“Is it the Planet Will?”
Previously, when the mysterious energy eradicated the Spirit World of the Destiny Dynasty, he had some guesses, and now he could almost confirm them.
It was indeed the Planet Will who had intervened.
And the Planet Will had taken notice of him.
“But what does this plea for help mean?”
He thought for a moment and said, “If you can easily pull me here, you shouldn’t be asking for my help.”
Before long, another thought appeared.
[The planet, lacking strength, intervenes in its creatures’ lives as its greatest ability.]
“No wonder.”
Actually, Wang Sheng had also anticipated that if the Planet Will truly had strength, it wouldn’t be suppressed by the Destiny Dynasty, nor would it have fallen to the point where it needed his rescue.
But the fact that the planet really had a will was beyond his expectations.
“Why do you need me to save you? Even if that world invades, you won’t suffer, right?”
Although he always referred to it as the world, it was actually a planet, and even if other planets invaded, at most, the creatures would suffer— the planet itself would remain unaffected.
This time the thought came quickly.
[I do not wish for my children to be extinguished, to lose all my children.]
Wang Sheng’s gaze sharpened.
The Planet Will was concerned not for itself, but the creatures on the planet.
For Him, all the creatures born were His children.
“…”
“I understand!”
In fact, he had not planned to simply run away.
Leaving aside the fact that he had been living there for so long and developed emotional attachments, the infinite distances between stars didn’t permit running away as an option.
Running away was the last resort, not the first choice.
If there was hope, he didn’t want to abandon his home.
Of course, if they were truly unmatched, he would not hesitate.
Upon hearing his response, the Planet Will did not display any emotions; or perhaps it didn’t understand the concept of emotions at all, or it had been suppressed for too long.
Nevertheless, for such an answer from Wang Sheng, it seemed quite satisfied.
A surge of energy appeared in front of Wang Sheng, who felt that by merging with it, his strength could receive no small enhancement. However, he didn’t move.
“Can it be preserved?”
The Planet Will did not reply, but the energy hanging in the air obviously conveyed that message.
At the same time, it also expressed the intention to send him away.
Perceiving this intention, Wang Sheng immediately asked, “Why would another world invade? Is it a coincidence?”
This time the Planet Will did not respond immediately.
Just when he thought the Planet Will wouldn’t reveal much, a familiar thought appeared.
[This is the rule of the starry sky.]
“The rule of the starry sky?”
The answer was clear.
Other worlds, planets invading, were part of the rules of the starry sky, without reason—just as regular people need to eat and drink.
Wang Sheng had nothing else to ask.
Since the Planet Will said it was a rule, clearly no further explanation would be forthcoming.
“Can you send me away? I understand what you’ve said, and I will do my utmost. However, if there’s no other way, perhaps I’ll only be able to save a portion of the people.”
[That is enough.]
Another thought later, Wang Sheng left the place where he could see the whole planet and once again returned to the inside.
And no longer was there any will making its presence known.
Were it not for the cluster of energy floating before him, he might have thought all that just happened was an illusion.
“The starry sky, huh?”
He had long understood that the world was a planet.
It wasn’t that he wasn’t interested, but there was no need.
He hadn’t even fully understood the interior of his planet; exploring the broader starry sky was a thankless task.
Moreover, even with his strength, even if he could survive in the starry sky, he wouldn’t be able to travel far, and his speed was certainly insufficient.
Therefore, he had always suppressed his curiosity.
And this time, it seemed by a twist of fate, he had seen the full view of the planet.
“Life Planet, indeed a beautiful existence!”
Plus, in his previous life, he had only seen planets in the form of images, and this real encounter was much more unsettling than it appeared on the surface.
“Time to return, to intensify my cultivation. I have no desire to become a wanderer!”
