Chapter 79 The Mysteries of Relics and the Choice of Civilization
Ling Feng led the exploration team back to the Alliance headquarters with heavy hearts and high expectations, carrying the information they had gleaned from the mysterious ruins regarding the new power system. Along the way, the team members silently pondered the immense changes this power might bring to the world, their hearts filled with both anticipation for the future and a subtle apprehension about the unknown risks.
The spaceship landed in the plaza of the Alliance headquarters, where Xuan Yuanche and Su Yao had been waiting with their group for some time. Seeing the serious expressions on Ling Feng and the others' faces, they knew that this exploration must have yielded extraordinary discoveries.
"Quickly, tell us the details," Xuan Yuanche said eagerly.
Ling Feng took a deep breath and recounted everything he had seen and heard in the ruins: "The enormous energy crystal in those ruins contains an unprecedented power that seems to be closely linked to the origin of the universe and the rise and fall of civilizations. When I tried to communicate with the crystal, the information that flooded my mind indicated that this power could break our existing rules of space, time, and power, creating a completely new cosmic order. But if it is used maliciously, it could also destroy countless civilizations in an instant."
Everyone gasped upon hearing this. Su Yao frowned and said, "This power is too strong and dangerous; we must be cautious. We cannot use it rashly. We must first study its principles and characteristics in depth before considering how to control it."
The alliance headquarters immediately convened top thinkers, scholars, and highly skilled cultivators from around the world to discuss strategies for dealing with this mysterious force. Inside the meeting room, everyone expressed their opinions and debated endlessly.
A senior scholar suggested: "We should first establish an isolated and secure research facility to place the energy crystal within it, preventing its power fluctuations from affecting the outside world. Then, we should organize a multidisciplinary team to analyze it from multiple perspectives, including energy science, runic literature, and history."
One radical practitioner argued, "Since this is a power that can change the cosmic landscape, we should master it as soon as possible. Only in this way can we have absolute say in the universe and better protect our world and the civilizations we encounter."
After a moment of contemplation, Xuanyuan Che said, "The danger of this power cannot be ignored. In the process of exploration and research, we must formulate strict rules and preventive measures. At the same time, we must also consider the attitudes of other civilizations. If we possess and use this power alone, it is very likely to arouse the suspicion and hostility of other civilizations, thereby triggering a war on a cosmic scale."
Therefore, the Alliance decided to follow the scholars' advice and build a massive energy research base in a remote corner of the world. The base was surrounded by layers of defensive arrays and powerful spiritual shields to ensure that the research inside would not interfere with the outside world, and also to prevent malicious intrusion.
A multidisciplinary team was quickly assembled and threw themselves into intensive research. They worked day and night to probe and analyze the energy crystals, attempting to decipher the power codes they contained. However, the research progressed extremely slowly; the energy crystals' power system was far too complex and mysterious, unlike any power they had ever encountered before.
Meanwhile, the Alliance dispatched diplomatic envoys to various friendly civilizations to inform them of the discovery of the mysterious ruins and energy crystals. Most civilizations expressed concern and hoped that the Alliance would handle this matter with caution, offering to provide some knowledge and technical support during the research process to jointly address any potential crises.
However, some civilizations, such as the remnants of the defeated Shadow Cult who had allied with dark forces throughout the universe, heard of this news and plotted to seize the energy crystals to fulfill their evil ambitions of dominating the universe. They began secretly gathering forces throughout the universe, planning a surprise attack on the Alliance world.
Within the research base, after a long period of effort, the team finally achieved some initial results. They discovered that this mysterious power seemed to have a special connection with the spiritual power of living beings. Only individuals with strong and pure spiritual power could establish stable communication and initial control over it.
Ling Feng volunteered to participate in further experiments. Relying on the powerful mental strength he had honed during numerous cosmic adventures, he entered a special experimental chamber to attempt a deeper connection with the energy crystal.
The moment Ling Feng's mental energy touched the energy crystal, he felt as if he were in a vast, boundless ocean of cosmic consciousness. Strange sights and complex information surged towards him like a tide, nearly collapsing his mental energy under the immense impact. But Ling Feng gritted his teeth and persevered, striving to find patterns and key elements within this ocean of consciousness.
Outside the experimental chamber, the team members anxiously monitored Ling Feng's vital signs and mental energy fluctuations. Suddenly, the monitoring instruments emitted a sharp alarm; Ling Feng's mental energy had become severely disordered, and his body began to tremble violently.
"Oh no! Stop the experiment immediately!" the researchers shouted in panic. But Ling Feng was already deeply immersed in the connection of consciousness and couldn't extricate himself.
Just as everyone was filled with despair, a sudden clarity flashed through Ling Feng's mind. He remembered the various techniques for power fusion and mental control he had learned during his previous cosmic adventures. He attempted to use these techniques to fuse and guide his mental power with the power of the energy crystal.
A miracle occurred. Ling Feng gradually stabilized his mental energy fluctuations and began to be able to read and understand more core information about the mysterious power. He discovered that this power was not meant to be monopolized by a single civilization, but rather required the cooperation of numerous civilizations, who would combine their respective mental energy, culture, technology, and other strengths to truly realize its positive value and create a harmonious, prosperous, and entirely new cosmic order.
Ling Feng slowly withdrew from the consciousness connection and stepped out of the experimental chamber. Exhausted but resolute, he addressed the crowd: "We must unite all civilizations in the universe to explore and control this power. This is the only path to avert disaster and move towards a bright future."
Xuanyuan Che looked at Ling Feng, his eyes filled with admiration and trust: "Alright, then let's take immediate action and launch the initiative of the Cosmic Civilization Alliance to jointly face this unprecedented challenge."
Thus, the Alliance world embarked on a new journey once again. With the belief in peace and cooperation, they will travel to every corner of the universe, inviting all civilizations to join this great journey of exploration and development, and jointly write a new chapter in the history of the universe. However, the final destination of that mysterious force and the future destiny of the universe remain undecided, waiting for many civilizations to join hands to explore and make choices.
