Chapter 230: Which [Heavenly Court deity] should make an appearance?
In the end, Cheng Qisheng still couldn’t calculate a definitive result.
After all, according to Fallen Heaven Star’s conversion field, it was perfectly normal for the [Divine Kingdom] to eventually become larger than the planet’s actual physical surface area.
However, she had managed to figure out why one-thousandth of the Divine Kingdom obtained by the native gods would end up in her hands.
At first, she had assumed this was another form of “hardship compensation” from the world’s consciousness, but after sensing it more carefully, that didn’t seem to be the case.
Cheng Qisheng felt that it was more like a “processing fee” collected on behalf of the Heavenly Dao.
Clearly, as an entity responsible for overseeing the entire world and doing all the work by itself, the Heavenly Dao also needed some energy replenishment.
On Fallen Heaven Star, everything could be converted into power. If the Heavenly Dao hadn’t been diligently collecting its “processing fee” while carrying out its duties, how could it possibly have been powerful enough to resist the Great Annihilation for five years?
The Blue Sea Great Luo Heavenly Court was already more than halfway built. As the acting Heavenly Dao, Cheng Qisheng was increasingly beginning to understand some of Fallen Heaven Star’s rules without even realizing it.
For example, as long as the Heavenly Dao wished, it could directly drain the energy of the entire planet.
“So, it wasn’t that places where nobody was doing any work became chaotic after the Heavenly Dao left. Rather, the Heavenly Dao drained part of Fallen Heaven Star’s energy in order to resist the Great Annihilation.”
Aether agreed. “That also aligns with the Heavenly Demon’s actions. Based on logical calculations, It wanted to extract the energy from living beings and use that energy to create a new world of Its own, thereby avoiding the destruction of this world.”
Cheng Qisheng figured that was probably what had happened.
The Heavenly Dao truly deserved admiration.
Back then, it could have extracted the life energy of every living thing in the world. Yet it had stubbornly resisted that temptation, taking only most of the stars in the sky and extremely energy-intensive ‘components’ such as the Reincarnation Bureau.
It had even left the people of Fallen Heaven Star celestial bodies such as the sun and moon, ensuring that the planet wouldn’t be utterly destroyed in an instant.
No wonder the world’s consciousness wanted to recreate it. This really was a Heavenly Dao that had remained steadfastly at its post and fulfilled its duties.
Holding Aether in her arms, Cheng Qisheng continued examining rough estimates of the energy levels in various parts of Fallen Heaven Star together with it.
These calculations had been worked out jointly by Aether and the scientists of Blue Sea. Cheng Qisheng wasn’t particularly interested in doing this kind of math, but even in a metaphysical world, as long as things followed certain rules, anything and everything could be calculated.
Among them, the researchers from Moon Silk Star had also contributed quite a bit.
These researchers hadn’t left the city to come to Fallen Heaven Star, even though they had already become believers.
Cheng Qisheng would have to be out of her mind to let these people, whose strength lay primarily in their minds rather than their physical abilities, leave the protection of Blue Sea and venture into a new world.
If they were going to explore a new world, it should at least be one with a physical existence, where they could protect themselves using various external weapons.
The researchers, for their part, were quite happy with this arrangement. After all, back on Moon Silk Star, most of them had spent the first half of their lives cooped up in some research institute.
But in Blue Sea, they had an area spanning more than a hundred thousand square kilometers, and they could go wherever they pleased.
Being able to travel through the vast universe aboard an entire city, with an enormous planet before their eyes and countless seas of stars stretching out behind them, while still going to work as usual every day and continuing their ongoing projects at the Science and Technology Institute…
It was a scene they wouldn’t even have dared to dream about!
So, now that Blue Sea finally had a need for their expertise elsewhere, these researchers worked quickly and enthusiastically, eager to make the most of the opportunity.
With Aether’s tremendous computing power and the energy estimates Blue Sea had gathered from various sources, the results were soon ready.
In the world of Fallen Heaven Star, they had adopted a standardized unit of measurement: Faith Power.
“Maintaining an ordinary small celestial body requires approximately 50 million units of Faith Power.”
“An ordinary-sized mountain range requires approximately 2 million units of Faith Power.”
“A small sea requires around 3.5 million units of Faith Power.”
As a god, once Lu Luo received Faith Power, creating a Divine Kingdom was instinctive to him, even though he himself hadn’t realized what he was doing.
The foundation for creating a Divine Kingdom was possessing a large expanse of territory. This was precisely where the additional land that had appeared in Youdu came from.
As Aether explained, Cheng Qisheng looked at the straightforward table in front of her, feeling as though she had returned to the world of video games.
Put simply, as long as you were willing to spend Faith Power, you could build your very own Minecraft world however you pleased.
If only Blue Sea had rules like this! Cheng Qisheng could conquer the stars in minutes and crush the Great Annihilation in the palm of her hand.
But then again, she was the Creator God in Blue Sea and the acting Heavenly Dao in Fallen Heaven Star. There wasn’t really much difference.
Cheng Qisheng straightened her back, adopting the same meticulous attitude she’d used when creating Blue Sea’s buildings back in the day.
Now then, let her see…
What should be the very first step in building her Minecraft world?
Although Cheng Qisheng had been focusing her attention on the additional land area, she hadn’t missed the opening of the [Yun Kingdom: True and False Crown Prince Instance] by the cultivators of Fenglu Sect.
The false crown prince had already returned to court. By now, quite a few evil entities must have infiltrated the imperial court of Yun Kingdom.
It wouldn’t do for the Blue Sea Great Luo Heavenly Court to keep doing good deeds while only appearing in front of cultivators and gods.
Besides, once the Heavenly Court received official recognition from the imperial court, it would only need some time to obtain the Faith Power of the entire kingdom’s population.
When it came to hunting down evil entities, of course the Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals had to make an appearance!
But making an appearance herself wouldn’t be very impressive.
Remembering the way the real crown prince had pleaded with Ming Moyu, Cheng Qisheng sent another message to the Old Eighths, who were working their tails off in Youdu.
Hmm… Which [Heavenly Court deity] should make an appearance?
Forget it. She’d let the Old Eighths decide among themselves. The great Creator God only needed to see the results.
Come on, get to work!
It was time for the Blue Sea Great Luo Heavenly Court to make a spectacular entrance!
I just realized how powerful LU Song had become. He didn’t have any faith power in him when he landed the Heavenly Fallen Star yet he still manifested as an enormous mountain. And not only that, he’s like a solar powered god, when he still didn’t have any followers he just bask in the sun and moon.
