The Shenyao civilization and the Gemstone Empire were at a loss regarding this choice.
They had no choice but to look for their big brother, the Alfate civilization. Then, Lin Aotian explained to them what he had heard from Lin Fan about the conditions for promotion to a god-tier civilization.
Only then did they realize that they had been on the wrong path ever since they became a level-9 civilization, and there was no turning back now.
In other words, they were no longer fated to become a god-tier civilization. The only choice left was to evolve into an existence like the Alfate civilization.
Most importantly, even if they had not taken the wrong path back then, one universe was not enough to support two god-tier civilizations.
Therefore, in the Azure Dragon Universe, there was no need to think about becoming a god-tier civilization.
Thus, under the guidance of the Alfate civilization, the Shenyao civilization and the Gemstone Empire embarked on the path of evolution into energy life forms.
In fact, this path was not without a future. It was just that the Alfate civilization was still trapped in this universe and could not go out, so they could not continue to advance to a higher level of development.
As for the Federation, in this year, not only had they recruited a large number of scientists from other civilizations, but they had also received great help from the Alfate civilization.
Although they were no longer a pure technological civilization, their technology related to dark energy and black cavity energy could still be said to be the best in the entire Azure Dragon Universe except for the Federation.
Therefore, there was no problem in assisting in the promotion project of a god-tier civilization.
However, Lin Fan knew that there was not much time left for them. At most, there was more than a year left before Fain would be completely devoured by those ten-dimensional creatures. When that time came …
A new round of universal catastrophe would descend at any time!
-----
Year 245 of the Federation calendar.
Time passed in the blink of an eye, and more than a year had passed unknowingly.
Now, in terms of middle and high-level power, the Azure Dragon Universe was not much weaker than those powerful universes. However, the power at the top was still lacking before the Federation officially became a god-tier civilization.
Fortunately, the Azure Dragon Universe would not be invaded by the Outerverse for at least a hundred years.
However, the bad news was that another crisis had quietly arrived.
In the Midas Supercluster, which belonged to the level-10 technological civilization, the Obsidian Empire.
This was a hub-type Super Star Cluster and also an important interstellar trading station of the Obsidian Empire. Trade fleets from thousands of surrounding civilizations were shuttling back and forth, creating a lively scene.
However, the people who were busy trading didn't notice that a red and black crack had suddenly appeared in an empty Star Field. It was as if the universe had been torn apart, and strange creatures with indescribable appearances were constantly scuttling out of it.
"Is this the 3 + 1 dimensional space? Sure enough, there are different rules. I can feel that more than half of my abilities have been restricted! "
"That's right. Other things aside, the ability to freely cross timelines can no longer be used. In this case, we have to be more careful. If we die here, we will really die!"
"What a troublesome place. If it wasn't for the fact that there are enough nutrients here, I really wouldn't want to come here. I feel so uncomfortable all over!"
Outside the crack, the three leading giant beasts communicated through spiritual sharing after sensing for a while.
It was clear that even though the three of them had lived for billions of years, they were still quite uncomfortable in the four-dimensional environment. After all, the rules were completely different. This caused them to be unable to use some of the abilities that they could use in the ten-dimensional space.
However, even if they could not use those abilities, they were still not something that ordinary civilizations could resist in terms of energy intensity or the remaining means that they could use.
Coincidentally, at this time, there was an Obsidian Empire patrol fleet not far away. After detecting that the energy here was a little chaotic, they were heading here.
Of course, their existence had long been discovered by the three giant beasts.
"So weak. At this level, even if we devour all of them, it won't have much effect at all, right?"
"Grios, be quiet. Although they are very weak, they win in numbers. In this dimension, the number of lives is countless times that of our side. It's almost like an inexhaustible resource."
"Lotte is right, and even if we devour all the lives in this dimension, they will all recover in less than tens of thousands of years. Do you know what this means?"
Regarding Grios' complaints, Lotte and Lance did not care at all.
In their view, this dimension was simply a treasure trove. It was like a grassland. Even if you harvested all of them, as long as you nurtured them for a while, they would recover again, and then you could harvest them again.
After repeating this process, you would find that this was a dimension where the resources of life would never be exhausted. It was simply a hunting ground created for the ten-dimensional space.
It was simply too wonderful.
"Okay, okay, both of you have a point. So, the first meal here, who wants to eat first?"
Grios asked with a grin as his eyes seemed to be able to see through the distant void and stare at the fleet of technological civilization that was rushing over.
"I know you can't wait. Go ahead. Anyway, there are so many life resources here, I'm not in a hurry!"
"Yes, I'll let you have the first meal!"
"Okay, that's what you said. Then I'll go first, hahaha!"
After listening to Lotte and Lance's answers, Grios did not hesitate and directly rushed toward the fleet.
At the same time, three light-years away, in the flagship of the Darklight Empire's garrison fleet.
"Commander, due to unknown reasons, the hyperspace engine cannot directly lock onto that area. We can only approach it at sub-light speed!"
"Don't joke around. This is three light-years. If we use the sub-light engine to get there, wouldn't it take more than ten years to get there?"
"How about we report the situation to the mainland and let them send a fleet in through the black channel?"
"Well, it seems like that's the only way!"
After a moment of thought, the commander nodded and said.
However, before he gave the order to contact the mainland, an unexpected situation occurred.
"Commander, a life form is detected approaching us. Its speed is very abnormal, but its energy form cannot be matched in the database. Hint: Unknown!"
"Hmm? Why is the speed abnormal! "
"Speed … the speed has reached … 100 AU per second, this … this is impossible!"
100 AU per second?
632 light-years per second?
Are you kidding me? This is impossible!
The commander calculated in his mind and immediately came up with an impossible result.
"This data is too exaggerated. There must be a detection error or a problem with the equipment. Re-check the equipment and re-check!"
"Yes, commander!"
