Chapter 9: Legend of the Universe Chapter 25: The Death of Old Friends
Li Miaomiao came into the study room carrying a fruit plate and found that Xu Jingming had closed the light curtain and was in a daze.
"Miao Miao." Xu Jingming looked at his wife.
"What's wrong?" Li Miaomiao asked puzzledly.
"Grandpa, and our parents are all over 2,900 years old," Xu Jingming said. "Most of them are not far from the end of their lifespan."
Li Miaomiao looked at her husband: "Jingming, what do you think?"
Except for Father Xu who has some talent in evolution and reached the eighth level with the help of the 'Evolution Guide', the other elders are all ordinary star creatures.
"Of course it's to extend my life," Xu Jingming said. "If I have the ability to do it, I will do it."
"Using external force to create life." Li Miaomiao said worriedly, "In the human race, generally only great scholars with academic qualifications of level 100 can use external force to create life for free. Others... are not allowed without special reasons."
Xu Jingming said: "There are still vacancies left."
"Cosmic legends are eligible to apply! And 'great scholars' who have made sufficient contributions are also eligible to apply." Xu Jingming said.
"To apply for the first spot as an external force life form, you need to deduct 100 million merits. The second spot requires 200 million merits, the third spot requires 500 million merits, and the next spots are 1 billion, 2 billion, 5 billion, 10 billion, 20 billion..."
Li Miaomiao's face turned pale when he heard this: "So many merits? 100 million merits can buy ten galaxies. Jingming, how many merits did you accumulate before you became a cosmic legend?"
In general cosmic legends, there are only a few places available for family members to apply for.
"I thought about it. Grandpa, our parents, Miaomiao, our daughter, and the two little ones Xu Fangjin and Xu Biyun." Xu Jingming said, "This is my tentative list."
"Aren't the quotas very valuable?" Li Miaomiao asked, "Are they too many? In fact, I think that living for thousands or tens of thousands of years is already a lot. There's no need to be too demanding."
“It’s not demanding.”
Xu Jingming smiled and said, "Since I can do it, why not do it ? My family is the people I care about most in this world."
Li Miaomiao nodded.
"What's more, with the help of the Evolution Guide, many of you are already eighth-level star life forms, and your life span is still far from over." Xu Jingming said, "Now the only ones who need to break through with external force are grandpa, my mother, and your parents, a total of four people."
Li Miaomiao nodded: "Four people have contributed 1.8 billion merits, and after the fifth person, the merits will continue to soar."
…
After the couple decided, they immediately implemented it quietly.
The couple personally invited four elders, and the four elders were sent to the headquarters of the Universal Human Alliance in confusion to undergo a breakthrough transformation into the 'Source Life'.
"We are here?"
When Mr. Xu, Li Chenan and his wife , and Xu's mother woke up, they found that they had undergone a complete transformation.
"What are we doing?" Li Chenan and his wife originally had a head full of white hair, but now the white hair has turned black, and they have returned to their youth.
"This is the quota that Jingming applied for, allowing you, mom and dad, to become the source of life with external forces." Li Miaomiao greeted.
"Become a source of life?" Li Chenan and his wife couldn't believe it.
"Our bodies?" Grandpa Xu exclaimed, his body turned into a puff of smoke, and then condensed into one. "Is this the source of the universe? I can actually become a source of life, grandson! It's not easy to apply for this quota, right?"
Mother Xu couldn't help but exclaimed: "I heard that the emperors of the three major royal families are not eligible to apply for a quota."
As Xu Jingming's mother, Xu's mother has lived a life of luxury for many years and knows a lot of information about the top human population in the universe.
"Mom." Li Miaomiao said, "Your son is much better than them."
"Let's go back." Xu Jingming took his family.
call!
In an instant, he returned to Blue Planet from the distant headquarters of the Human Alliance in the universe.
"We arrived in a flash, crossing multiple cosmic domains and tens of billions of light years." Grandpa Xu looked at Xu Jingming, "My eldest grandson is becoming more and more amazing."
When he was young, he was a professional e-sports player and a game anchor. How could he have imagined that his grandson would be so powerful? Even he himself soared into the sky and became a source life with a lifespan of 30,000 years.
…
Li Chenan and his wife live on a private planet.
Swish swish swish! ! ! ! !
Five spaceships came to this private planet together.
"Dad, Mom."
"Mom and Dad."
Three men and two women visited Li Chenan and his wife together.
Since Li Chenan and his wife became space beings, they have had five more children in their long lifespan, giving Li Miaomiao some brothers and sisters. After so many years of development, the Li family is also a well-known family among the human race in the universe.
"Mom and Dad, we are not far from the end of our lives."
"Please beg Big Sister to help us."
"Mom and Dad, we want to live too."
These three men and two women came together to ask Li Chenan and his wife for help.
"Jingming Miaomiao, it's not easy to help us become source life." Li Chenan looked at his children, "Their own child 'Xu Lixing' is still just a star life, how could he help you?"
"Xu Lixing is an eighth-level star life form, she is not in a hurry." One son said, "But we are in a hurry. I am more than 2,600 years old this year."
"Your eldest sister has spent a lot of time and effort on the Li family. She even prepared an 'evolution guide' for you." Li Chenan said, "But you guys can't become star life on your own. You all rely on external forces! Look at the Xu family. The younger generations of the Xu family practice much harder than you do."
"We in the Li family don't have good talent."
"Even my sister, under the personal instruction of my brother-in-law, took many years to become a star life."
The three men and two women were talking.
"Dad, my brother-in-law is now the first person below the Supreme Realm among the human race in the universe! The source life quota is very precious, but for my brother-in-law, he can help four elders. He can help some younger generations."
"Dad, Mom."
They all begged.
"Your eldest sister told us that it's very difficult to apply for a quota. Even the younger generation of the Xu family can't meet the requirements. Don't expect it." Li Chenan shook his head. "You have to be sensible in doing things. Three thousand years of life is long enough. How much more can you expect? Let me make it clear here. Don't bother your eldest sister and brother-in-law. If you anger your brother-in-law, you will regret it."
"We're not looking for my brother-in-law, we're looking for my eldest sister."
"We'll go find the eldest sister ourselves."
The temptation of longevity is enough to drive the obedient children in the past crazy.
The closer they get to the end of their life span, the more they want to become a source of life. If their parents can get a place, why can't they?
…
Li Miaomiao usually handles the Li family's affairs and never bothers Xu Jingming.
"Master, Xiaoqing."
Xu Jingming came to visit Dai Tongda and Dai Xiaoqing.
Dai Tongda does not have an evolution guide. Although Xu Jingming also gave some resources to his master, his master and his junior sister are still far from the eighth level.
"Jingming."
"Brother."
Dai Tongda and Dai Xiaoqing were also surprised by Xu Jingming's arrival.
Xu Jingming has now been "deified". He is the greatest leader of the Blue Star civilization and an extremely dazzling figure in the human race. He is even recognized as a new "supreme realm" existence.
When such a person came to visit, the Dai family was naturally in an uproar, and everyone else left. Only Dai Tongda and Dai Xiaoqing stayed.
"I have already been over 2,900 years old without realizing it." Dai Tongda smiled, "Xiaoqing and I both have silver hair, but Jingming, you are still young."
"Brother will reach the highest realm in the future." Dai Xiaoqing said admiringly, "It's a pity that we can't see it."
"Is there anything I can help you with?" Xu Jingming asked.
Dai Tongda and Dai Xiaoqing looked at each other.
"No need." Dai Tongda said, "Limu Group usually helps us a lot, so we have nothing to worry about ."
Xu Jingming nodded slightly.
"We have experienced a lot in this life. The virtual worlds on the virtual world network have satisfied all our childhood imaginations." Dai Tongda said with emotion, "This life is really wonderful."
Dai Xiaoqing looked at her father and said, "My dad can't forget my mom, but he's pretty carefree about everything else."
Dai Tongda was startled, his wrinkled face filled with reminiscence in his eyes.
Compared with that woman, the other women I met in the years that followed were not worth mentioning.
"Master, Xiaoqing." Xu Jingming said, "You must remember what I am going to say next."
The two of them looked at Xu Jingming.
"Don't hold on until the last day of your life." Xu Jingming said, "You can die ten days or half a month before the deadline."
Today's technology is very advanced, and it is entirely possible for star life to survive until the last moment of its lifespan.
"Ten days or half a month before the deadline?" Dai Tongda and Dai Xiaoqing were puzzled.
"When I reach the highest level in the future, I will have the hope of changing the fate of low-dimensional life." Xu Jingming said, "I will revive you, and even Master... the mistress whom you have never forgotten, can also be resurrected."
My master's wife died at a young age, so naturally she was far from reaching the end of her life.
"Really?" Dai Tongda was stunned. He dreamed of seeing his wife again.
"There is just hope." Xu Jingming said.
It is not easy to cultivate a clan. The only inheritance Xu Jingming knows about now is "Menghaduo".
In the future, I will become a higher-dimensional life and perhaps obtain new methods.
But there is no doubt that…
Xu Jingming must want his wife, daughter and many others to have a long life.
"Understood, we understand." Dai Tongda's eyes became hot, and Dai Xiaoqing also remembered it and asked, "Is there a limit on the number of places?"
"If I can revive you in the future, we'll talk about the quota then." Xu Jingming said. He didn't know the quota yet. He only knew that there were a lot of quotas for the Menghaduo clan.
Only a small part of the clan serves as the three thousand holy envoys.
…
While Xu Jingming was comprehending and constructing a higher-dimensional life form, he was also visiting friends one by one.
Master Liu Hai, with the help of Xu Jingming's resources and his innate abilities, finally became a source life.
Most of my other friends are facing the end of their lives.
Blue Star, Cemetery.
Xu Jingming stood alone in front of a tombstone.
"Ah Shuo, you are gone too." Xu Jingming looked at Yang Qingshuo's name on the tombstone. "The original Limu team, sharpshooter Wang Yijie, big bear Liu Chongyuan, Heng Fang and Ah Shuo, all of them are gone one by one."
"We were full of energy and enthusiasm and participated in the first Fire Cup competition in the virtual world."
"Everything is still vivid in my mind. All those opponents back then, Lei Yunfang, Fang Yu, Zhou Yi, Zhang Qing, Xiong Tianshan, and you, are gone."
Among the earliest batch of star life forms on Blue Star, few could reach the eighth level on their own, and naturally they could not break through the lifespan limit of three thousand years.
Childhood classmates, teenage companions, and adult friends are almost all dead and have become part of history.
Xu Jingming returned to the old house on Blue Star alone.
Sitting there quietly, watching the sun slowly set.
"Jingming." Li Miaomiao sat beside him.
"Now I understand why high-dimensional beings rarely return to their hometowns." Xu Jingming said softly, "Because the relatives and friends they once had are no longer here."
"The lifespan of three thousand years, ten thousand years, thirty thousand years, a hundred thousand years...will take away the people around you again and again, and the number of people around you will decrease until you are the only one left." Xu Jingming said softly, "You are all alone, this is a high-dimensional life."
Li Miaomiao held Xu Jingming's hand.
"My lifelong goal," Xu Jingming said, looking at his wife, "is that we can often watch the sunrise and sunset."
"Jingming, my life span may not be as long as yours, but I will always be with you while I am alive." Li Miaomiao said.
"You will live a very long time." Xu Jingming also held his wife's hand, and suddenly he frowned slightly.
Because five people came outside the community.
"Master." The guardian bowed respectfully, "Madam's five brothers and sisters are outside the community and want to visit you."
"They chased us here?" Li Miaomiao's face changed.
Xu Jingming frowned slightly and looked at the guardian: "Let them go!"
"Yes." The guardian responded.
"Forbid them to enter Blue Star again." Xu Jingming ordered.
"Yes." The guardian responded again.
The five members of the Li family were expelled from Blue Star before they could meet Xu Jingming.
