Chapter 1 Ten Thousand Years After Survival in the Star Sea
If some people die, they are really dead!
The death of some people may be just the beginning of another journey.
One moment, Li Qing was bargaining with the stall owner at a border jade and wool market holding a gray crystal that was full of cracks and stained with dried soil and gravel. The next second, the whole world burst into dazzling white light, the sky collapsed, and then there was cloth in his hand.
The cracked gray crystal suddenly burst into light, and a powerful attraction came, sucking his soul into the crystal.
The reason why I say soul is because before being swallowed into the crystal, I clearly saw the annihilation of my physical body.
Then, under the illumination of billions of stars, he continued to sleep for an unknown number of years until...
Until he woke up again, he was surprised to find that he appeared in the body of a young man also named Li Qing.
At first I thought it was a body snatching, but after receiving all the memories without any hindrance, I realized that this was not a body snatching, but reincarnation.
This Li Qing is the other Li Qing. They have the same origin, but one is the main consciousness that is sleeping, and the subconscious mind is reincarnated as a human being. When the main consciousness wakes up, the subconscious mind naturally returns to the main consciousness.
After receiving eighteen years of subconscious memories, Li Qing was surprised to discover the magic of this new universe.
Yes, new universe.
In the first year of the new galactic calendar, the old universe is annihilated, the new universe is born, and survival in the interstellar sea begins.
It is similar to many national survival novels that Li Qing had seen on the Qidian Chinese website before. All humans on earth, as well as many civilized races in the old universe, were transported to the new universe and began to survive in the interstellar sea from a simple colonial ship.
It was a magnificent era with numerous heroes. Countless human ancestors on Earth worked hard for human civilization to gain a foothold in this new universe.
Originally, Li Qing was supposed to be one of those struggling, but at the moment when the old universe was annihilated and transported, the cracked crystal in his hand was suddenly stimulated and opened, sucking his soul into it.
What followed was tens of thousands of years of slumber. When he woke up, the time was already 10018 in the new galactic calendar, and 10,000 years had passed since he had to survive in the star sea.
In the past 10,000 years, mankind has experienced countless wars, troughs, and brilliance. Countless pioneers have fought hard one after another. In the end, they not only succeeded in surviving on the star sea, but also established the Emperor's Star, the fourth star field of the Perseus Spiral Arm of the New Galaxy.
He founded an extremely glorious civilization, the United Empire of Mankind, and joined the Interstellar Alliance of Humanoid Races in the New Galaxy.
After tens of thousands of years of development, the United Empire of Humanity is now so powerful that it is one of the four permanent members of the Humanoid Interstellar Alliance in this new galaxy with thousands of large and small civilizations.
The United Empire of Mankind is composed of fourteen powerful star sea lords who are elected emperor families, and a noble senate formed by 252 large and small star sea lords to jointly rule the huge United Empire.
The so-called military lord refers to a top family that owns a private colonial planet and a powerful private fleet, similar to the ancient military governors or warlords.
Overall, Li Qing's luck in this life was quite good.
He was born in the Qinghe Li family, one of the military lords. This Qinghe refers to the Qinghe galaxy, which has one natural planet, seven modified planets, more than a dozen large space residential stations, a total population of more than 80 billion, and more than 30 active players.
The ruling family of a billion-prosperous galaxy.
The Li family in Qinghe arose more than 300 years ago. His ancestor Li Gang rose to fame early with his purple epic innate talent and established a good career abroad.
After that, he returned home and defeated his other brothers to inherit the family business. He married the Yin family of Shangqiu and his strength grew rapidly. More than two hundred years ago, Li Gang participated in the Empire Development War and destroyed the fifth Faust Star Territory, which had territorial disputes with the United Human Empire.
An alien civilization captured a Category II continental planet.
After eighty years of hard work, he was finally recognized by the empire, officially joined the Imperial Senate, and was promoted to a military commander, named Qinghe Li.
Li Qing was born into such an aristocratic family, and his birth was considered a good thing.
But it is a pity that he is not a direct lineage, but a branch of the family, and he is a concubine.
He didn't even know who his mother was. His childhood memory was of being brought back by his father. He had never seen or heard his father say who his mother was.
At first, he had some expectations, but as he grew up and his father's indifference over the years, he gradually understood that his mother was probably not from a good background, and that he might not only be a concubine, but more likely an illegitimate child.
Fortunately, although his father and brothers and sisters were not happy, he was brought to the Li family in Qinghe after all. No matter how bad his life was, it was much better than living outside as a commoner.
No longer counting on his father, Li Qing's biggest wish in the past ten years is to wait until he reaches eighteen to reach adulthood, and then according to the regulations of the entire United Human Empire, all descendants of players who come to the new universe from the earth can obtain the status of players as long as they successfully awaken their innate talents.
They all have to go out and explore.
From the descendants of the fourteen star sea lords to the descendants of ordinary civilians, as long as they can successfully awaken their innate talents and obtain the status of a player, they must go out and explore.
Although the stage of survival in the star sea has passed, it is now the stage of exploration and expansion of the star sea. The United Empire of Mankind has now established a glorious civilization. However, we must be cautious in times of danger. The universe is not safe. Human civilization is now only active on a spiral arm of the new galaxy.
, there are an extremely large number of alien civilizations in the other three spiral arms of the new galaxy and the huge galactic center.
Those civilizations, like humans, were once part of the Star Sea. They also survived, and their strength was not inferior to humans. Some even had greater overall strength than humans.
The empire stipulates that latecomers cannot rest on the merits of their ancestors. Any descendant of a noble must go out to explore, and their future status and inheritance rights in the family will be determined based on their achievements in development. The stages are every three years, for a total of ten years.
Of course, there must be second generations who don't want to go. Such noble children who don't want to open up will give up all inheritance rights by default.
Of course, Li Qing did not expect this inheritance right. What he valued was the resources provided by his family when he went out to develop.
As a military-lord family, all descendants will provide a frigate and an initial capital of 100 million star dollars when they go out to explore. This is what he values.
Anyway, the family will definitely not be able to accomplish anything, so it is better to leave the family early with the development funds and hang out outside. With a battleship and a starting capital of 100 million, it is better than staying in the family.
For Kaifeng, 100 million yuan is just a drop in the bucket, and it can't even afford a destroyer.
But if you don’t have any extravagant expectations and use your development money to live outside, 100 million star dollars is definitely a lot of money. You can buy a large piece of land on a remote colonial star and buy some robots or
The clones can open a farm or ranch or something, marry a wife, and live a comfortable life.
It turns out that this is what Li Qing thought, but now that Li Qing is conscious and holding a golden finger, this idea must be put aside.
Sitting in a room with simple decoration but full of technology, Li Qing tapped his fingers lightly on the table, and a light screen popped up. It showed his bank account number, which only had 2.24 million, which was the pocket money he had saved over the years.
This is the difference between a wealthy family and ordinary people. Even if he is just a bastard whom he never wants to see and has no property, his annual basic monthly income alone exceeds that of most migrant workers.
"But it's still a little bit less."
This little money can't do anything, we still have to wait for development funds.
After closing the bank interface, Li Qing rubbed his chin, and with a thought, the person disappeared.
The surrounding space changed, and Li Qing instantly appeared from the room into the cold starry sky. There was darkness in all directions, and there was only a light source blooming from below. He lowered his head, even though he had been sleeping here for tens of thousands of years, every time he saw him, he felt like he was coming from
Shock to the soul.
In the center of the galaxy below him, there were not stars in normal galaxies, but a huge miracle of the universe that was so huge that it exceeded the limits of his imagination and he didn't know how to describe it.
A pure white sphere whose size needs to be described in astronomical units, surrounded by extinguished stars.
Literally extinguished.
Without the information transmitted to him from the universe in the palm of his golden finger, he wouldn't even know what to call this super high-dimensional fortress called 'Witness of the Stars'.
Yes, the official name of this thing is the 'Witness of the Stars'. It is the only thing that can be seen in the universe in the palm of your hand. It is a super high-dimensional fortress that comes from an ancient super-god-level civilization and compresses an entire huge river system into power...
The wreckage of...!
Well, to be precise, it's damaged. Calling it a wreck is too much. After all, the central system of this thing is still there, and a very small part of its functions can still be used.
With a thought, Li Qing turned into a stream of light and flew towards the remains of the 'Star Witness' super high-dimensional fortress that replaced the stars and illuminated the galaxy. Its size can only be measured in astronomical units...
To be honest, as the master of the palm universe, he knows how terrifying the power of this thing is in its intact state.
There is no need to use his poor imagination and vocabulary to describe it, just know that the energy core of this thing is a compressed river system larger than the Milky Way. In its heyday, it was surrounded by millions of compressed stars and black holes for attack.
With defense, the terrifying gravity can forcefully pull a galaxy out of its original orbit under the full force of the force. You will know how outrageous it is.
It's a pity that all this is past glory. Even if this thing can be repaired, the repair conditions...
Just don’t say it.
As the master of the universe in his hand, Li Qing ignored the gravitational pull of the extinguished stars floating around the high-dimensional fortress and threw himself directly into the fortress, appearing in a space surrounded by streams of light inside the fortress.
The space was empty, and there were countless irregularly moving streams of light outside. He didn't know what they were, because he couldn't know what they were because he didn't have permission to enter. He was limited to moving and entering in this small space of less than a thousand square meters.
There is an undamaged area inside this pile of wreckage that still retains its complete form.
That was part of the former shipyard of this super high-dimensional fortress. I don’t know how big it used to be. I only know that the remaining part alone has a shipbuilding capacity of up to 2300. It can almost start building two Titan super flagships at the same time, or at the same time.
Build 110 battleships and 2,300 frigates.
Moreover, this super shipyard comes from a super god-level civilization and has a very complete production line of weapons and accessories. In addition to ships, it can also produce accessories that come with blueprints, such as missiles and shells.
but.....
Although this universe in the palm of your hand looks shocking, in fact it can only be used as a logistics base.
With materials, blueprints, and professional shipbuilding skills, you can use the shipyards here to build warships one after another.
In addition, before it is repaired, this thing can only be used as a super warehouse. It can open a passage gap and collect things up to ten kilometers in diameter into the palm of the universe. Only dead objects, such as debris and meteorites, cannot be
Take the initiative to bring in enemy warships.
Of course, if a gap is opened and the enemy takes the initiative to get in, that is another matter.
But under normal circumstances, no one would take the initiative to delve into unknown places.
The universe in the palm of your hand comes from an unknown super-god-level civilization in an unknown era.
Normally, the universe will come to an end every countless billions of years. The old universe will be destroyed and a new universe will be born in the singularity.
But sometimes, there will be some super civilizations in the universe who are not willing to accept the end of their own civilization, and will try their best to build some ultimate technological creations and super civilization artifacts that can survive the final destruction of the universe.
Almost all super civilizations have failed, but some have succeeded.
And the crystal ball he obtained, the universe in his palm, is an artifact of a super civilization that has successfully crossed the epoch, but is about to be destroyed.
He didn't know what the civilization was called, because although this super civilization artifact successfully escaped the end of the era, it was already severely damaged. When he first entered it, there was only one wrapped in an infinite terrifying storm, and countless extinguished stars were floating inside.
A star system with a star core, and a dilapidated super high-dimensional fortress in the center that is about to collapse at any time.
After ten thousand years of slumber, the universe in the palm of your hand has stabilized and will no longer collapse.
Strictly speaking, it has escaped the end of the era, but it is still unknown whether that super-god-level civilization still exists.
But regardless of whether that super-god-level civilization still exists or not, the universe in the palm of his hand now belongs to Li Qing, and he is now the master of the universe in the palm of his hand.
With the universe in his palm, he would certainly not be as willing to be ordinary as his subconscious mind.
