Chapter 2300: Chapter 2300 Absorbing Whole
"How on earth are we supposed to move such a vast world?" Ye Liuyun was at a loss, unsure of where to even begin.
"Think of it as a secret realm. Just connect with the power of origin and draw it into your spatial world. The rest of the world will follow naturally!" Qiong Qi explained to Ye Liuyun.
Hearing this, Ye Liuyun and Qiong Qi decided to return and explore the world further.
They discovered that the world was in decent shape. The Leo Aurelius had not drained too much of its energy.
After the martial cultivators had been wiped out by the Devil Clan and Devil Beasts, no one had come to exploit its resources, allowing it to recover and thrive.
Ye Liuyun also reached out to Ye Ling, who confirmed that the power of origin here could merge with what they already had. She even offered to help mediate the connection with the world’s power of origin.
With that settled, Ye Liuyun and Qiong Qi temporarily covered the power of origin with a layer of soil before leaving.
Not long after, their battleship arrived.
Qiong Qi briefed the group on what had happened and everyone could not help but lament the short-sightedness of the people here.
"I’m starting to worry that people from other worlds might think the same way. Forming alliances could be a lot harder than we thought!" Ye Liuyun expressed his concern.
Manfeng chimed in as well, "The main issue is their limited perspective. I was the same until I saw the vastness of the cosmos. That’s when my vision truly expanded."
"That’s a problem! Not many martial cultivators can just venture into the cosmos. Are we supposed to capture them and drag them out here to see for themselves?" Qiong Qi exclaimed.
"That’s not practical! The decision-makers are usually from the major factions. Trying to force them out would be no different than staging a coup!" Zhao Hu added.
Mo Tianheng turned to Ye Liuyun and said, "In my opinion, they’ll never accept an alliance if we don’t conquer them, let alone unite against foreign race.
That’s just human nature. They can only think within the limits of what they see. Focusing on the immediate is the choice of most people."
Upon hearing Mo Tianheng’s words, the group fell into a contemplative silence, acknowledging the truth in his statement.
Initially, many of them had joined were more out of curiosity than conviction and few truly believed in the importance of forming an alliance.
Their interest in unity only surfaced when they faced difficulties against the foreign races, hoping for reinforcements. However, once the threat was neutralized, the idea of forming an alliance was quickly forgotten.
This was due to their primary focus remained on enhancing their own strength.
Ye Liuyun began to see the flaws in his previous thinking. Despite this realization, he was determined to make an effort.
At the very least, his approach to dealing with the Accord Dynasty was less taxing on the human martial practitioners compared to his methods in the God Realm.
Suddenly, Ye Liuyun’s divine sense detected that the Devil Clan and Devil Beast armies were indiscriminately hunting even the local feral beasts. He immediately instructed them to cease such activities.
The number of feral beasts was not a lot and their cultivation levels were not high. This was likely because they had been heavily hunted by the local humans. Preserving these feral beasts would not cause any significant impact and could enrich the variety of creatures in his spatial world.
Ye Liuyun allowed the soldiers to disembark from the battleships for a brief respite, waiting for the Devil Clan to clear the area.
Ye Liuyun and his companions extended their divine senses to observe the reactions of the local martial practitioners, hoping to find a few individuals who could organize a collective resistance against the Devil Clan’s slaughter.
However, every major faction they observed was reluctant to offer assistance to others. They only seeked help when they themselves were under attack.
Disheartened, Ye Liuyun and his companions shook their heads in disappointment. Ye Liuyun eventually gave up, withdrawing his divine sense.
They were both disheartened by the local martial practitioners’ lack of unity and pained by the cruel hunting carried out by the Devil Clan.
After several days of waiting, the three troops finally returned.
They handed over a large collection of interspatial rings they had gathered, leaving it to Ye Liuyun to distribute the resources. Ye Liuyun stored them in his spatial world, entrusting Lan Xin and others to manage the resources.
The vast army had already reboarded their battleships, waiting in the cosmos for Ye Liuyun.
The immense world was now left with only Ye Liuyun standing alone.
He attempted once more to connect with the power of origin, conveying his intention to draw it into his spatial world.
He also summoned Ye Ling to communicate with it.
As soon as Ye Ling appeared, with a mere snap of her fingers, she informed Ye Liuyun that it was ready. The power of origin could now be directly absorbed into the spatial world.
"So soon?" Ye Liuyun asked in surprise.
"Of course! I explained your intentions to it and it’s more than willing to follow you!" Ye Ling replied indifferently.
"Where shall I place it after transferring?" Ye Liuyun asked.
"Anywhere will do!" Ye Ling said.
"All right then!"
With no other choice, Ye Liuyun first stored Ye Ling away. After deciding where he wanted to relocate the current world into his spatial world, he positioned himself above the power of origin. He then took a deep breath.
"Here we go!"
He mumbled and began the process of drawing the power of origin into his spatial world.
"Grrr. Grrr..."
Suddenly, the entire world began to tremble and the vibrations grew increasingly intense.
In an instant, it felt as though the entire world was being drawn into Ye Liuyun’s body, much like the way he used to absorb spiritual energy during his cultivation.
But this time, it was the whole world rushing into him at an astonishing speed.
Ye Liuyun shut his eyes in fright. When he opened them again, the world before him had vanished. He found himself standing alone in the vast expanse of the cosmos, with their battleship floating in the distance.
The crew on the battleship were also staring in awe at the spot where the world had disappeared.
They had all witnessed the entire world being sucked into Ye Liuyun’s body.
“Is this what it means to refine a world?”
“So that’s how it works!”
“But what if my spatial world isn’t large enough? Could I still refine a world?”
Everyone was curioused and some asking questions.
Ye Liuyun quickly checked his spatial world and found the newly absorbed world exactly where he had anticipated.
However, it was now pressing against his spatial world, causing a violent tremor within the spatial world that felt like an earthquake.
At the point where the two worlds collided, an intense friction and collision occurred, distorting the terrain of both worlds.
After what felt like an eternity, the tremors finally subsided and the two worlds had completely merged into one.
“It’s done! The transfer is complete. Leave the rest to me. I’ll guide its power of origin to merge with the existing one.” Ye Ling informed Ye Liuyun.
“That’s it? It’s that simple?”
Ye Liuyun was still in disbelief, surprised by how smoothly everything had gone.
“Yes, it’s that simple!” Ye Ling reaffirmed with Ye Liuyun.
“But what if you weren’t here? Would its power of origin still be able to merge with mine?” Ye Liuyun asked with curiosity.
