As long as he comes, I’ll be his good older sister!

Clearly.

The level of the Order Land was still a bit low; they didn't know that the true direct inheritance of the Ancient God's Authority could persist through Reincarnation.

Minor Authority is lost upon death.

But if it were a true Primordial Authority… because the acquisition conditions were extremely complex and the difficulty was incredibly high, once obtained, it would be truly bound to the soul. Even through a civilization's reincarnation, it would continue to exist on the player.

Of course, normally, even those who obtained a Great Authority would have their memories cleared during Reincarnation.

Only Qin Feng…

He was an exception!

And whether it was Qin Wuyue or the Eight-Armed Hall Master of the Starry Sky Pirate Clan, neither of them was aware of this.

"I'm sorry, I don't know who it is."

Qin Wuyue shook her head and answered the Hall Master.

At the same time, she was thinking to herself: who could that guy be?

Is it someone from Great Xia?

Or from another country?

North America? India? Russia? Western Nations?

She couldn't guess at all; she had no clue!

"We can start the investigation based on the variables from the last reincarnation."

On the Eight-Armed Hall Master's eerie face, his expression was grave. "In the last Blue Star reincarnation, how many came to the Order Land? How many were exiled?"

Qin Wuyue said in a low voice, "In the last reincarnation, a total of four people arrived at the Order Land, and two went back. Of the two who didn't return, one died in the wilderness of the Order Land, and the other came to the Order Land through the Judgment Temple and has already joined it."

"As for those who were exiled, that's unclear; there are no relevant records…"

Being exiled meant being sent to other civilizations to act as NPCs.

If the weak were exiled, their sanity would be stripped away, and they would become low-level bosses or monsters, driven only by the desire for survival and plundering lifespan, along with powerful combat instincts.

Besides the personnel who reached the Order Land, these exiled individuals were also variables in every reincarnation of a civilization.

There could even be players from other civilizations temporarily and randomly stuffed into this civilization's reincarnation to become new NPCs or monsters…

Due to the complexity of the specific circumstances, it was completely impossible to accurately know or calculate the specific variables of a civilization's reincarnation.

"The Blue Star Civilization is your home; I'll leave this investigation to you."

The Eight-Armed Hall Master thought for a moment and said to Qin Wuyue in a deep voice, "It's best to ensure that this powerhouse can enter our Blood Origin Temple."

Qin Wuyue nodded solemnly. "Understood."

Everyone present was well aware of how important this matter was!

For the entire Order Land, it was like an unstoppable storm!

The Temple Envoys had already begun privately messaging their subordinates and their respective civilizations: "If you come into conflict with players from the Blue Star Civilization, as long as it's not some major grudge, let it go."

Of course, since they didn't know the alignment of this powerhouse from the Blue Star Civilization, they didn't rashly have anyone show goodwill to the Blue Star players.

After all…

A civilization was not a monolithic entity.

Especially those who came up from a Reincarnation Civilization; they generally still harbored hostility toward other races within that civilization. This would only slowly change after staying in the Order Land for a long enough time.

For example, some Temple Envoys who were on good terms with Qin Wuyue knew she was from Great Xia in the Blue Star Civilization, and that she wasn't on the same side as countries like India or North America.

Therefore, showing goodwill rashly was not appropriate.

The best course of action was to wait and see, or at the very least, not to offend them.

Besides that, the attitudes of the Temple Envoys in the hall toward Qin Wuyue had also become somewhat inscrutable…

They couldn't be sure if that powerhouse from the Blue Star Civilization was from the same Great Xia as Qin Wuyue.

Everyone had their own considerations!

And Qin Wuyue was no different.

"Blue Star…"

Qin Wuyue was undergoing a brainstorm: "Who could this unprecedented, terrifying genius be? Could it be Qin Feng?"

"Qin Feng's gaming Talent has always been strong, and he's obtained a Minor Authority before. It's not out of the question that this genius is Qin Feng."

"If it really is him…"

"Then his potential in this reincarnation is truly terrifying."

"For me, this is a good thing."

"Anyway, he doesn't know that in every previous reincarnation, I went back and killed him and Qin Xiaoyou…"

"And in the Order Land, no one knows that I go back to do this every reincarnation."

"As long as he sets foot in the Order Land, I'll be his good older sister!"

Civilization Reincarnation had two ironclad rules.

The first ironclad rule was that before a civilization successfully ascended, no one from any other civilization could go to that civilization.

So, no matter the stage, as long as Blue Star was in the process of reincarnation and had not ascended, players from other civilizations had no way to go to Blue Star or the Blue Star game zone.

Unless they went to the Blue Star Civilization through exile, becoming an NPC or a monster boss.

But these NPCs or high-level bosses, even if they knew a lot of information about the Order Land or Civilization Reincarnation, were not allowed to reveal it, or they would face extremely severe punishment.

The second ironclad rule was that before the ninth year of every reincarnation of a civilization, no one could go to that civilization.

This rule mainly restricted powerhouses who had 'graduated' from that civilization to the Order Land from returning to that civilization before the ninth year to interfere with the civilization's progress.

Unless the civilization's reincarnation reached the ninth year and entered the 'Sublimation Challenge' stage where reality and the game merged.

At this stage, if they were powerhouses from the Order Land who originated from that civilization, they could return to participate in the Sublimation Challenge under certain conditions.

It's important to note that if the players who returned at this stage failed the civilization's 'Sublimation Challenge,' they would enter reincarnation along with the civilization. Once they returned, they normally couldn't leave and could only live or die with the civilization!

And besides these two ironclad rules, there was an additional rule that could be broken under certain circumstances…

This additional rule was—

To return to a civilization and help with Ascension, one had to meet a condition: they must not have used a 'heart of order'!

Once a player from that civilization used a 'heart of order', they became an 'Ascender' and severed ties with their original civilization.

Such 'Ascenders' could not return to that civilization unless they waited until the civilization successfully ascended, at which point they could rejoin it.

As for the 'heart of order', it was a precious item produced only in the Order Land.

Using a heart of order allowed one to integrate the Order effects from equipment into their own body…

It was similar to integrating divinity into oneself, the same principle, just not as high-end; it could only absorb and integrate Order.

Integrating the first strand of Order required 1 heart of order, the second required 2, and so on…

As long as one could obtain enough hearts of Order, a player could stack the Order on their body without limit!

It could be said that once in the Order Land, the heart of order was absolutely unavoidable.

If one wanted to increase their strength, they inevitably needed to integrate hearts of Order; otherwise, with too few strands of Order, they would be at an extreme disadvantage when facing enemies…

Therefore.

It wasn't very realistic to do what the War Civilization did—accumulating enough powerhouses through multiple reincarnations to go back and help with Ascension together.

In the Order Land, to become stronger, one had to use hearts of Order.

But once a heart of order was used, one could no longer return to their civilization to help with Ascension.

This was a very contradictory rule.

To gather enough powerhouses to return together, these powerhouses would have to arrive in the Order Land and give up on becoming stronger, waiting for ten, twenty, thirty years… or even longer.

So, one situation became very obvious.

Qin Wuyue being able to return to the Blue Star during the 'Sublimation Challenge' was entirely an exception.

She certainly wouldn't give up on using hearts of Order to become stronger…

Without violating the two ironclad rules, she could use her Minor Authority in coordination with her own Talent to quietly return to the Blue Star after the ninth year and secretly kill all the returning powerhouses, thereby ensuring that Blue Star's Ascension failed!

And anyone who knew of her deeds would have their memories reset after the civilization's reincarnation and start anew.

Thus, no one else knew what she had done!

So she naturally assumed…

If the super genius of the Blue Star Civilization now was Qin Feng, then once Qin Feng forced the Blue Star Civilization to ascend, she could completely appear before him again as a 'good older sister.'

With such a powerful backer available, her first reaction was, of course, to cling tightly to him!

"It's a pity that Blue Star has produced such a genius; it's very likely to ascend this time…"

"I won't be able to reincarnate and farm Qin Feng and Qin Xiaoyou anymore…"

"However… even for a genius like this, successfully killing the fourth and fifth World Spines won't be that easy. He might just drop dead."

Qin Wuyue thought to herself!

…

Meanwhile.

While the powerhouses standing at the peak of the entire Order Land were discussing this issue within the Blood Origin Temple.

News that the Blue Star Civilization had killed the first World Spine on the 75th day instantly spread throughout the entire Order Land!

When the Jiaoyang Civilization killed a World Spine in its fifth year, the news hadn't spread very far.

But this time…

The news of the kill from the Blue Star Civilization directly shocked the entire Order Land!

This included the powerhouses from the Blue Star Civilization scattered throughout the Order Land…

Upon receiving this news, they were all beyond shocked.

What's going on?

Our Blue Star Civilization…

Is about to produce a heaven-defying powerhouse?!
