Chapter 2548 - 19: It’s Just Star River Middle Stage
Moreover, his avatar has wasted a large number of meteorites, especially those capable of destroying Galaxy Level entities, which are extremely difficult for Jia Yan to manufacture.The larger these explosive meteorites are, the shorter their lifespan. After a month has passed, the explosive power of such enormous meteorites has already depleted by half compared to their original state.
If he were to refine them again, it would require a lot of time, and there might not even be a war occurring by then, which for Jia Yan, is a matter of time wasted.
So recently, his avatar has been wandering around, receiving external intelligence while also observing if the Allied Army is preparing to start a war.
Fortunately, it seems that the other side does not intend to start a war again in such a short time, allowing Jia Yan to continue to rest, since the previous refining and letting his avatar fight had already consumed quite a bit of his power.
"We will absolutely not give up the lost star soil in the Orion Arm next time there’s war. If war breaks out again, I will take direct action. The use of avatars has been effective, so I will continue to use my avatars in battle. After all, I am different from others, I have many avatars. Although losing one is still a blow to my main body, it is much better than others who would suffer significant primordial qi loss."
He quietly observed his surroundings.
Yet a particular line of conversation made Jia Yan feel a bit heavy-hearted.
"I heard that there is a very powerful mid-level Galactic existence on the Allied Army’s side, I wonder if the senior ancestor can handle it."
"Haha, you must be kidding! The Ancestor, even just using an avatar, can handle an early-stage Galaxy Level entity. The power of a mid-level Galaxy existence is definitely something the Ancestor can manage. Don’t you understand, the Ancestor is the king of cross-level battles?"
"Exactly, the Ancestor has always been capable of cross-level combat, there’s no need to worry about his combat power."
The creatures speaking were sitting at a street corner, enjoying delicious food while chatting away, in high spirits.
Though they spoke without much thought, the listener, however, was attentive.
Jia Yan overheard them talking about a certain mid-level Galaxy affair.
Actually, even Jia Yan knew there was definitely a mid-level galactic creature to contend with, and even if it hadn’t appeared, Jia Yan knew who it was.
"A sovereign in a vast starfield more than 1,300 light-years away, whose strength far exceeds that of many early-stage Galaxy levels."
Jia Yan silently analyzed the strength of this mid-level Galactic powerhouse.
To him, things were far from as simple as others claimed.
Unless one attains the Galaxy level, they won’t understand the disparity in power among Galaxy levels.
As previously mentioned, the grade difference between galaxies is like the difference between star levels, or from Semi-permanent Star to Stellar level, or from Dignitary to Semi-permanent Star, and such.
These grade differences are absolute, and within Galaxy levels, there is such disparity.
Just like the Galaxy initial stage and the mid-level existence, the difference is often underestimated. Most early-stage Galaxy creatures remain stuck at that level for life simply because mid-level Galactic power is overwhelmingly stronger.
Those who have reached the Galaxy initial stage all dream of advancing to the mid-level, but despite the endless resources employed, most still completely fail.
The reason everyone aims for the mid-level is exactly because of the overwhelming power difference - it’s a crushing kind of power.
Though Jia Yan does indeed boast significant strength and was already renowned for cross-level combat, he was still far from confident when facing a mid-level galactic opponent.
"Forget it, I’ve already worked hard up till now, isn’t it just a mid-level Galactic existence? I will surely have a chance to conquer it."
Jia Yan was somewhat unsure about his own power because he relied too heavily on explosive meteorites. These were akin to a gun: powerful, especially in the possession of the main body, far more so than with an avatar.
Yet, like a gun, if it misses the target or the wielder is inexperienced, it would be ineffective.
The factors of uncertainty were too strong, and Jia Yan didn’t want to really engage in battle with a mid-level Galactic powerhouse. But there was no choice; the opponent was coming for Jia Yan, so what could he do?
"Never mind, let’s go."
Jia Yan quietly left the shop where he had been seated, leaving some money behind, and departed without a sound.
The atmosphere in the Orion Arm had become increasingly endearing to Jia Yan.
The whole starfield seemed to align with Jia Yan’s preferences, continually undergoing transformation.
For instance, Jia Yan enjoyed the ancient atmosphere of Huaxia on Earth. Although he seldom verbalized this preference, after he praised an ancient town on Earth, the entire starfield began to fall under its influence; many quaint buildings either directly modeled or adapted to suit life on various planets were constructed to capture that essence.
Consequently, within every planet of the Orion Arm, it was common to see Huaxia-like structures, and even certain ancient Huaxia philosophies were disseminating throughout the starry sky.
Numerous Chinese novels from the past also circulated throughout the starry sky.
Thus, Huaxia of the Earth Alliance, seemingly insignificant in terms of impact on the starfield, unexpectedly became a renowned cultural spectacle, drawing external planet inhabitants traveling great distances to Earth, simply to witness some of Huaxia’s scenic spots.
All this, perhaps, was something Jia Yan indeed wished to see.
Although Earth people’s technology and combat power remained insufficient, if they could influence the entire starfield economically and culturally, then even if Jia Yan were to leave this starfield, or even the Milky Way, Earth people might continue to lead decent lives, at least they wouldn’t be exterminated overnight.
Of course, if Jia Yan truly left, whether the Earth Alliance would maintain its current influence remains unknown.
But that matter is for the future to address; Jia Yan is far from knowing when he might think of leaving.
Perhaps...
It’s not about leaving, but about death?
Jia Yan gave a wry smile and then became solemn.
Was thinking about all this some kind of signal? He wasn’t sure. The enemies he would face next, he sensed, would become ever more powerful. Beyond the Allied Army, some ominous gaze seemed to fixate on him.
He didn’t know if it was other mid-level Galactic powerhouses, or perhaps...
The Territory Master?
Jia Yan shivered.
"In short, what lies immediately ahead is this round of enemies. If I can manage to deal with them, then the time will come to consider the future plans and how I should continue enhancing my strength."
Jia Yan was continually pondering how, after reaching a commendable level at the early-stage Galaxy, he should proceed. Would the future be just like most Galaxy-level entities, staying within their starfield, waiting for tributes, and continuously cultivating strength in anticipation of a chance to ascend to the middle stage, followed by becoming a Territory Master?
That might seem monotonous, but in reality, that’s how most Galaxy-level entities spend their lives.
However, there’s another option, one that slightly tempts Jia Yan.
"But these are discussions for later, after I deal with the current matters," he mused.
Jia Yan was always raising his own expectations, and even after reaching the Galaxy Level, he still felt a strong sense of crisis.
So many Evolution Beast Seniors before him had fallen at the Galaxy level and above, even those as formidable as Predecessor Tianji, an exceptional Domain Master level creature, had perished. How, then, could Jia Yan, a mere early-stage Galaxy-level evolutionary beast, harbor any bit of arrogance?
The sense of crisis remained incredibly acute.
"Alright, first I will focus on cultivating my main body’s strength, and then produce more explosive meteorites."
