Chapter 1: The Awakening of Fire.
Twilight Veil Principality, Indigo Crane River System, Shadow Mist Floating Land
Xingluo City, suburbs, ultra-long-range star sea delivery platform..
As a thousand-meter light beam soared into the sky, the hundreds of fireships that were parked neatly on the platform a moment ago completely disappeared and were dropped into the unknown distant starry sky.
At the same time, thousands of miles away, Yunhai City, one of the five largest cities in Shadow Mist Floating Land, was located along with Xingluo City.In the No. 3 male dormitory of Yunhai City's No. 1 Xinhuo Academy, James Hemsworth took off his virtual helmet and exited the Shadow Mist network.Nervous emotions emerged on his face. What he just watched was the real-time star sea broadcast of fresh graduates from Xingluo City's Xinhuo Academy.After Xingluo City, it is Yunhai City where he is located. As a fresh graduate of Yunhai's No. 1 Xinhuo Academy, that means that the scene just broadcast on the screen will soon be his turn.Ultra-long-distance star sea launch and exploration of unknown star sea. When I think that I will soon experience these two in person, how can I not feel nervous?Although he was nervous, there was a trace of expectation deep in his eyes, because this was also a rare opportunity. As long as he could grasp it, it was not impossible to soar into the sky.This is a great era of the star sea.
Millions of years ago, the multiverse was shattered, and the fragments of space and land that remained after countless universes were shattered were scattered in the void of the star sea.Since then, the multiverse era has ended, and a new era has emerged. The remaining civilizations of all parties call it the Broken Star Sea Era.These remaining fragments of the universe have acquired a new name over time—Star Sea Floating Land.Soon, civilizations of all races discovered that, as the final essence of the shattered universes in the multiverse era, most star seas and floating lands contained countless rare resources.In order to compete for these resources, the remaining civilizations of all parties refused to give in, and the entire Broken Star Sea was engulfed in war.For millions of years, in every corner of the boundless Broken Star Sea, countless civilizations have been destroyed every moment and annihilated in the long river of time. However, at the same time, various new civilizations have begun to spring up like bamboo shoots.Human civilization is one of them.In the Xinhuo Civilization Strong Domain, all civilized citizens can carry out ultra-long-range interstellar launches through Xinhuo spaceships when they turn 30, and start a journey of exploration in the star sea.Of course, due to the optimization and advancement of genetic technology, the average life span of Xinhuo citizens has reached 140 years, and today's 30-year-old is actually equivalent to the age of adulthood.Since the fire source was ignited more than 300,000 years ago, this has become a rule shared by members of the entire fire human civilization. Legal citizens over 30 years old can try to awaken the fire seed and bind the fire Airship, start exploring the star field.Scavenge the resources of the alien star sea, strengthen the Xinhuo airship, and sublimate the life level to fight against the increasingly powerful alien civilizations adjacent to the Xinhuo human civilization and defend the Xinhuo human civilization territory.It can be said that awakening the Fire Seed and controlling the Fire Airship is the most important opportunity in the life of all citizens of the Fire Civilization. Once successfully awakened and obtains their own Fire Airship, they will immediately become a master.Even as long as you can strengthen your Fire Ship to a higher level, and in the future, you will be able to seal the territory and become the Lord of the Star Territory of a vast star field, and have a long life, it will not be difficult to step into the ranks of the nobles of the Fire Human Civilization.Suppressing the strange emotions in his heart, James Hemsworth stood up, spread his legs in a horse stance, and at the same time raised his hands, palms upward, and slowly opened them.This is a standard training posture for Daoyin Technique.According to the official authoritative data of the Xinhuo human civilization, this set of guidance techniques developed by the Xinhuo human civilization over tens of thousands of years can not only strengthen the body and promote the sublimation of life levels, but also effectively improve the level of Xinhuo. The success rate of awakening. Before the age of 30, the higher the level of Daoyin Shu practice, the greater the chance of successfully awakening the Seed of Fire.As for why the age for awakening the Fire Seed is set at 30 years old.It's very simple. Based on the average life span of 140 years, awakening the Fire Seed at the age of 30 and controlling the Fire Airship will not only give people enough time to practice the guidance technique, but also greatly increase the chance of awakening the Fire Seed. At the same time, learning the basic knowledge of the Star Sea will not be left behind, effectively reducing the mortality rate after successfully awakening the Fire Seed and subsequently exploring the alien star field.And the remaining hundred years are completely enough to strengthen the Xinhuo Airship in the future and further sublimate one's own life level. It can be said that it kills three birds with one stone.…Three hours later, James Hemsworth ended his practice.After more than twenty years of continuous practice, his guidance level has already reached level 4. If he wants to improve it, it will no longer be possible in a short time.It was now dark outside, and he had no intention of continuing to practice. After washing up, he went directly to bed.Tomorrow is the day when Xinhuo awakens, and nourishing the spirit is more important than anything else.…The next day, the playground of Yunhai No. 1 Xinhuo Academy.The awakening ceremony had begun early."Zhang Lili, the fire awakening is successful, the quality is 'colorless', the next one is Zhou Pengfei."As the Shadow Mist Xinhuo Bureau operator's voice sounded, the hundreds of students below the awakening stage reacted in different ways.Some people sighed softly, but most people still showed envy in their eyes.Although all legal citizens of the Xinhuo Civilization can try to awaken the Seed of Xinhuo at the age of 30, the success rate of awakening is actually not high. Based on the average success rate of the No. 1 Xinhuo Academy in Yunhai City in previous years, ten students Being able to awaken four of them is considered very good.This is the first Xinhuo Academy in Yunhai where elites gather. The success rates of other Xinhuo Academy in the city will only be lower.Among the crowd, James Hemsworth, like most people, was envious in his heart and clenched his fists, feeling extremely nervous."Thirty years, everything depends on today."As I thought to myself, the announcement sounded again."Zhou Pengfei, Xinhuo awakening failed, the next one…""Zhao Yunfeng, the fire awakening was successful, and the quality is 'colorless'."…As each student succeeded or failed, it was soon the turn of James Hemsworth's Class 10, Class 5."Next, Mike Baxter."Hearing the sound, a figure standing next to James Hemsworth, nearly two meters tall, trembled like a black bear.Seeing this, James Hemsworth gently patted the other party's shoulder to signal him to relax."Baxter, come on."The burly man named Mike Baxter was one of the few best friends of James Hemsworth in the school.Mike Baxter nodded lightly and stepped towards the awakening stage.Not a moment."Mike Baxter, the fire awakening was successful, and the quality is 'white'."Suddenly, there were bursts of exclamations from the group of students.As we all know, they are also awakened fire seeds, but the quality of the fire seeds is divided into different categories. Colorless is the lowest, followed by white, then blue, purple, etc.Although white is only the second to last qualification, only one awakened person may appear among dozens of people. As for qualities like blue and purple, the probability of awakening is extremely low.A smile appeared on James Hemsworth's face, sincerely happy for his best friend.Unsurprisingly, as soon as Mike Baxter stepped off the stage, he was quickly greeted by friendly greetings from many classmates. Even those who had barely said hello a few times in the past ten years gathered around him, hoping to deepen their friendship.Don't blame everyone for being philistine. In fact, Mike Baxter at this moment can indeed be called a piece of cake.Small financial groups, chambers of commerce, families and other forces from the outside world are definitely willing to invest in white-quality fire seeds. As long as Mike Baxter nods his head and signs a legal investment agreement, he will soon receive a large sum of money. By investing in resources to strengthen the Fire Ship, the subsequent improvement rate of its Fire Ship will be much faster than that of other Awakened Ones.After all, the initial level of the Xinhuo Airship is 0, and subsequent upgrades and strengthening of each component will consume a lot of resources. Without sufficient financial support, the upgrade speed will be extremely slow."Next, James Hemsworth!"After four consecutive people failed to awaken, it was finally James Hemsworth's turn.Beside him, Mike Baxter also gave him a cheering look.James Hemsworth took a deep breath, suppressed the tension in his heart, and stepped towards the awakening stage.On the high platform, under the guidance of the Xinhuo Bureau personnel, James Hemsworth stretched his right hand towards the dark flame in front of him.The dark flame is called "Seed of Fire". Although it is not the original fire in the core star field of human civilization, it is separated from it. It can assist the human body in awakening the Seed of Fire and increase the success rate of awakening.James Hemsworth only felt that his right palm was surrounded by warmth. It seemed like just a moment, and it seemed like ten thousand years had passed. When there was a stabbing pain in his right hand, his closed eyes reopened.Before he could react, the announcement was heard."James Hemsworth, Xinhuo awakened successfully, and the quality is 'colorless'."Stepping off the awakening stage, James Hemsworth felt mixed feelings in his heart, including joy and sorrow.I am happy that I have successfully awakened the Seed of Fire, and my path to transcendence will be smoother in the future. The efforts of the past thirty years have not been in vain.What worries me is the quality of the fire. As the lowest level of fire, the colorless fire seed has a very low upper limit. It is okay in the early stage, but if the quality cannot be improved, then as time goes by, the strengthening of the fire ship will be inevitable. will come to a standstill, blocking his subsequent extraordinary path.He returned to the class team with a thoughtful look on his face, still processing the outcome."James, don't think too much. The quality of Fire Seed can be improved, and it doesn't matter if it is colorless…"Mike Baxter only thought that James Hemsworth had been hit, and hurriedly spoke to comfort him.James Hemsworth shook his head gently, indicating that he was fine. He was not forcing a smile, he really didn't care too much.The moment the results of Colorless Fire Seed came out, he was indeed a little disappointed in his heart, but he quickly came around.As Mike Baxter said, the grade of the Fire Seed can be improved. Although it is extremely difficult and requires the consumption of extremely rare special resources, he has the confidence to slowly improve the grade of his Fire Seed through effort.About half an hour later, the awakening ceremony for all the fresh students of Yunhai No. 1 Academy was completed.There are more than 600 students in total, and the number of people who have successfully awakened the Fire Seed is less than 200.Cries, laughter, exclamations, wailings… The whole square was in an uproar, some were happy and some were sad.After all, from now on, the life trajectories of the two groups of people will be completely different.
