Chapter 975: Nomadic Civilization

"It's not just my idea; many inheritances across the vast heavens and myriad domains of the cosmos are like this," the Super Ancient God said, shaking his head.

"All of them?" Caroline was slightly surprised. As she pondered the deeper meaning, a look of realization dawned on her face. "Indeed! Super Ancient God, you truly are an ancient cosmic being who has lived for hundreds of thousands of years, possessing extensive knowledge."

In fact, this is indeed a common pattern among many powerful races in the universe. At this moment, Xu Zhi naturally knew this from the inherited memories of the Renimansga clan. As he recalled it carefully, the Renimansga's inheritance also suggested that gifted descendants should cultivate a perfect Dao foundation before breaking through to Tier-9, but not to force it if they lacked the talent.

But why was it merely a suggestion? Why not directly reveal the truth about Tier-10 for the descendants of the Iron Base race?

"Because this world is too cruel; not telling them is the best way to prevent despair," Xu Zhi said, looking up. "Even the Tier-10 ancestor of the Renimansga clan didn't really believe that any descendants could break through to Tier-10. Therefore, the inheritance only implicitly suggested that future generations cultivate a perfect Dao foundation, rather than explicitly stating it. This avoids descendants falling into obsession and despair at the God stage, or even dying trying to refine a four-gene Dao foundation before they've even broken through to Tier-9."

This is a very cruel reality. For a powerful lineage, an ancient cosmic race with inherently few members, if their descendants can't even reach Tier-9, with generations dying as Tier-8 gods on the path to weak Tier-9, never even seeing a single Tier-9 breakthrough, then within a few generations, that race will inevitably decline and become extinct. This segmented memory inheritance method has become widespread, undoubtedly due to its rationality and proven practicality over time.

"The path of cultivation in the universe is truly a desperate and arduous struggle against fate, with no discernible end," Xu Zhi sighed, shaking his head with deep emotion.

Now, he also planned to do the same, imitating the powerful cosmic races from outside. He would instill in them the concept that four genes are stronger, but also imply that if they couldn't achieve it, it was fine not to create perfect genes; they could still break through directly, though they would be significantly weaker than other Tier-9 beings. After all, having many Tier-9 cultivators was indeed a way to 'harvest leeks', but Xu Zhi still hoped that true Tier-10 possibilities could emerge from them.

"Then we must inform them," Caroline said with a smile. "After all," she continued, "this knowledge was only acquired during the Evolution Corridor era; it wasn't pre-embedded in their inherited memories."

As they spoke, discussing the future transition and prosperity models of the era, they were in fact also debating a certain 'leek-harvesting' method of civilizational development.

"Super Ancient God, will you descend with me? It's time to meet the descendants and beings of this new world," Caroline asked with a smile.

The Super Ancient God merely shook his head. "You go. I won't join you." Normally, there would be no issue with going. But the thought of this transcendent world's sudden shift in style, likely involving live television broadcasts with gods being interviewed and participating in 'focus discussions,' made it a bit awkward. He thought about it and decided not to go. Rather than an awkward public appearance, it would be better to do something else.

"Then I'll go inform them," Caroline said with a smile. She was quite used to such things, even finding them rather familiar. After all, the Ishdal and the Divine Race back then experienced similar situations; their powerful beings were accustomed to television appearances and live broadcasts.

Caroline prepared to depart but then added, "Oh, by the way, I gained some interesting memories from Emperor Tyr of the Tyr Empire, and from the memories of those Supreme Gods."

"What memories?" the Super Ancient God asked with a smile.

"They were deeply hidden—the highest national secrets and data, stored only in their personal minds: certain special civilization coordinates."

Coordinates? Xu Zhi didn't immediately react. However, he soon felt that it was perfectly normal. After all, with tens of thousands of years of development, Tyr Civilization must have accumulated various data about civilizations they passed by or encountered. Especially since their current situation was so dire. Having become part of Caroline's memory corridor, even their most confidential memories were being extracted.

Caroline smiled. "But obviously, other worlds wouldn't willingly expose their specific coordinates. However, Emperor Tyr still managed to track them for a certain distance using special means, thus learning the approximate location coordinates of a nomadic-level civilization."

"A nomadic-level civilization?" Xu Zhi's expression was indifferent.

The Tyr Civilization hadn't truly possessed the ability to move an entire "civilization" at will; they had merely scraped by, reaching the threshold of such a civilization. At the last moment, they were preparing to implement a 'Wandering Planet Project'. However, truly advanced civilizations in the universe necessarily exist as "nomads"; this is an inevitable rule. Furthermore, civilizations at this level have an incredibly exaggerated demand for energy. Thus, they cannot stay in the same star system for long; once enough resources are extracted, they choose to leave. At the same time, they are not only ethereal and unimaginably flexible, but also incredibly difficult to track. These are the truly powerful cosmic civilizations; planets can no longer confine them. They can even move entire planets. It's like a nomadic tribe on the plains: when the resources of one grassland are depleted, they migrate to another to continue grazing and growing. A simple analogy would be the drifting of the "Ancient Wood Planet."

She explained, "Knowing the approximate location, and once we settle in that region, no matter how well shielded the void of that area is, it won't escape my eyes if I explore it carefully." That was her belief. After all, she considered herself to be a very powerful existence among Tier-9 beings.

"If you're interested, you can go explore," the Super Ancient God said with a smile. "But don't get distracted by external pursuits; focus on improving your cultivation."

Xu Zhi wasn't particularly keen on external civilizations. The previous Tyr Civilization, Planet Byrd? They were like child's play, not even worth a glance! It was only when Xu Zhi, acting as the Cosmic Garden, directly intervened that Caroline and the others felt powerful. Otherwise, facing those natives would have been an utterly crushing battle. The current nomadic civilization might truly be a Tier-9 civilization, but he didn't think Caroline couldn't defeat them. She was already among the strongest of cosmic Daoists.

However, observation was still necessary, but only to that extent. Xu Zhi intended to focus entirely on establishing and developing the transcendent world sandbox.

"Yes, I'll keep that in mind," Caroline said with a smile. She added, "Seeking external civilizations and various new stars is also to find energy supplements. Otherwise, it feels too improper to always rely on your accumulated reserves."

Xu Zhi merely smiled without speaking. After a few more words, Caroline took her leave to announce the future path to Tier-9 to the entire Tower World, detailing how to break through and progress.

Xu Zhi watched her calmly. She was busy with her task. Though he wouldn't show his face, it didn't rule out the idea of him exploring this world himself.

*Click*. Xu Zhi instantly teleported into the entire Tower World.
