Xiao Yefeng had countless words in his heart, yet his eyes could only watch as her life force gradually faded away. At this moment, he even felt that having great power might not be a good thing.
As his strength grew, the Observer's Eye had almost replaced Xiao Yefeng's normal vision. In his eyes, all life existed based on the intensity of their life force. He watched helplessly as Li Ji's life force dissipated, unable to stop it. If he could, Xiao Yefeng would have wanted to share his abundant life force with her, but that was impossible.
In this Low-Level Dimension, life could end prematurely, and one could use other spells to survive in a Spirit form. However, one could not supplement their life with another's. Watching Li Ji's Spirit fade away, Xiao Yefeng reached out to try to stop it, but ultimately he could not retain it. What was the point of forcibly keeping this unconscious Spirit? Ever since the Four Great Yin Gates took control of the earthly souls' destinies, it had become impossible to forcibly retain a soul. Even if one did manage to keep it, it would only be fleeting and eventually dissipate into the earth, just like the Spirits of An Bei Luoyu and Xinyu. Xiao Yefeng had not released them, yet they had already vanished. This was part of the process from Low-Level Dimension to Intermediate Plane, and also a benefit of the Low-Level Dimension; Spirits there could absorb Earth Qi to survive, while those in the Intermediate Plane could not.
There are gains and losses; this is the fundamental truth of Earth at this time. Xiao Yefeng did not intend to forcibly retain Li Ji's soul after all; her soul returning to Yin Si still offered a chance for reincarnation. Forcibly keeping it would only lead to its scattering.
With Li Ji's body in tow, Xiao Yefeng left that place. He intended to bury her around his home, specifically at the Azure Dragon Ink Pool feng shui site. That place was once a hub of Earth's fortune; although it had been abandoned since the Azure Dragon's departure, it remained a beautiful location with clear mountains and waters. Most importantly, there were no restrictions on the number of wives one could have there!
The car sped away from that place, heading toward an unknown future. Meanwhile, Huaxia was preparing to further enhance its Technological Civilization using the intelligent minds strengthened by Chaos Energy. Perfect World was doing the same thing; indeed, every country was pursuing similar goals—this was a common aspiration for all.
As time flowed like water and years passed like songs, people living through these times felt themselves aging more than anything else. Time had reached the fifth year of the new calendar. Now on Earth, apart from the various technological advancements visible everywhere and numerous tech products, ordinary people's world had undergone a tremendous transformation.
From the moment Chaos Energy infused Earth, it experienced miraculous changes akin to human evolution. Since that initiation, Earth entered an era of technological leaps; countless technological products emerged in nearly every aspect of life. Everything that once existed only as ideas in people's minds had almost become reality.
It turned out that humans had the greatest capacity for acceptance among all living beings; no other species could match humanity in adapting and accepting change. In just four short years, leapfrog technology had been embraced by all humanity—except for one detail: there had been no newborns since the second year.
However, people in this grand era temporarily forgot such issues; everyone was enjoying the changes brought about by technology. One could see various Beastification individuals basking in the sun along the roadside. With technological advancements came new potions capable of altering the unattractive appearances resulting from Beastification—allowing individuals to maintain their human forms while maximizing genetic integration.
Thus, those who still retained their Beastification forms were merely doing so out of preference. This potion emerged in the fourth year under Chaos Energy’s influence. Simultaneously, after international discussions, the two-thousand-year-old calendar system was replaced with a new calendar—much like countries changing their currency styles—changing a method of marking time had little impact on the world overall.
As the new calendar entered its fifth year, humanity had fully embraced the Gene Era and the Technological Era within a mere nine years. Now, we found ourselves in an age of Universal Conscription, where even a teenage girl could effortlessly lift a car. In such times, public safety was paramount; however, with everyone possessing such extraordinary abilities, individuality was diminished, and order remained much like it had been before.
This era was progressing exactly as envisioned by the Perfect World. Over these nine years, the international landscape had shifted as well. The Perfect World announced the establishment of a federation, which, although unrecognized, was led by Wa Country along with several other Chinese nations.
While large-scale wars had not erupted, the world of ordinary people remained peaceful. However, since the beginning of the new calendar year, the plans of the Perfect World had been set in motion. The atmosphere on Earth was thick with tension; even children understood that war was imminent.
In a vibrant jungle, a two-story wooden structure stood proudly. Its rough-hewn style suggested it was built by someone unfamiliar with construction techniques. Yet amidst its ruggedness lay warmth and comfort. It was hard to imagine that atop this idyllic retreat rested a Military Butterfly Aircraft. Inside the second-floor room, a man dressed in a tank top and shorts listened intently to a report from a colonel clad in military uniform.
Furrowing his brow in anger, the man in casual attire felt his temper flare after hearing the soldier's account. The soldier continued, "Major Xiao, you know that international tensions have become clear since the start of the new calendar. Our nation's reliance on Geomancers has nearly vanished, leading to a significant reduction in special combat personnel from Huaxia. Thankfully, thanks to you and Colonel Mo, along with Major Sophia and others who established new training methods for humanity, we have managed to stabilize the situation. However, this incident is too coincidental; otherwise, Number One would not have disturbed your well-deserved holiday!"
The man sitting on the sofa was none other than Xiao Yefeng. Nine years had passed, and at thirty-five years old, time had barely altered his appearance; he now exuded calmness and determination.
Yet Xiao Yefeng waved his hand dismissively and said, "A holiday is merely a special way to pass time for me; it simply means I get to spend more moments with my children. When national crises arise, personal matters must be set aside! When did they disappear? They were perfectly fine when I left three days ago!"
At that moment, concern filled Xiao Yefeng's heart. The colonel who had just arrived at his home was not there for trivial matters; Sophia and Mo Fei had gone missing. According to the colonel's report, just two days prior—when Xiao Yefeng had left Huaxia—Mo Fei and Sophia's tracking signals vanished while they were en route back home.
Over these nine years, Mo Fei had risen to the rank of colonel while Sophia had advanced to major. As for Xiao Yefeng, he repeatedly declined promotions and maintained his rank as a lieutenant colonel. However, even seated as he was, few would dare to treat him as an equal—even if they held the rank of Major General.
The new training methods established by the three were actually a combination of Elementalist techniques, Geomancer practices, martial arts training, and Gene Warrior methodologies—tailored specifically for the Technological Era. Sophia and Mo Fei were no longer merely team leaders; they had long since been promoted.
Now Mo Fei commanded a unit primarily composed of Gene Warriors supported by technology, while Sophia led a team focused on new humans supplemented by genetic enhancements and technological weaponry. Both were pivotal figures among today's most important military leaders; although they weren't the highest commanders, their combat prowess was undoubtedly top-tier.
In Huaxia itself, their exceptional abilities were rare gems; both had reached advanced levels and were on the brink of touching greatness. The concept of Peak Level was no longer something merely imagined—it was now within reach for many. Just years ago during Yin Si's time, Xiao Yefeng worried about having too many warriors at Peak Level; yet now Huaxia boasted nearly twenty thousand such warriors—not to mention those among them who stood out above the rest.
As the initial joy of meeting the requirements faded, Xiao Yefeng realized that the so-called entry into the Intermediate Plane was merely a prerequisite. The Earth had already reached the level of the Intermediate Plane due to the infusion of Chaos Energy. To escape its fate, Earth ultimately had to take matters into its own hands. The schemes against Earth needed to be resolved; otherwise, it was destined for destruction.
At this moment, the entire world was aware of the situation. Thus, starting from the New Calendar Year, the flames of war against the Perfect World Federation had been ignited. However, battles remained hidden beneath the surface, not yet brought into the open. The key issue was that in recent years, the Human United Federation had risen unexpectedly, almost shedding its initial principle of human supremacy. From the New Calendar Year onward, their actions lacked any guidelines; they targeted powerful individuals in various countries with assassinations and surprise attacks, even resorting to suicide missions. Their sole objective was clear: to eliminate the highest command structures of each nation.
The actions against Huaxia were particularly prominent among their targets. Since the New Calendar Year began, nearly a hundred high-ranking generals had fallen at the hands of the Human United Federation. Of course, the Human United Federation struggled to establish a foothold in Huaxia; once discovered, they could be killed on the spot without further notice. Eventually, Huaxia expelled the forces of the Human United Federation from its territory. The disappearance of Mosu and his companion was almost certainly confirmed by Huaxia's high-level officials as an act by the Human United Federation.
After years of cultivation, Huaxia had developed several warriors whose strength was nearly on par with Xiao Yefeng's. However, this was only theoretical; since defeating Zhao, no one had seen Xiao Yefeng make a move again. Over these years, no one knew how much Xiao Yefeng's strength had progressed. Although they did not intend for Xiao Yefeng to find out about their disappearance, who could ignore that these two were his friends? Therefore, as soon as their disappearance was confirmed, it was reported to him immediately.
