Professor Mo Xuan was silent for a while and nodded, "Yes, there are not many candidates suitable for this task, and you are the first on the list."

"On the one hand, you have valuable experience in exploring the Flying Star Realm and the Blood Demon Realm alone, which is something that no strong man in the Three Realms has."

"The results of those two alone ventures were very good, proving that you have all the abilities you must have in this mission. Even though it contains some luck, the new Starlight Federation does need some luck to embark on the road to the battle for hegemony in the Star Sea!"

"On the other hand, you are also one of the top weapon refiners in the Three Realms. Although you are not good at theoretical research, your actual hands-on ability is absolutely outstanding, and you can even rank in the top five!"

"This mission requires explorers to assemble a large number of magic weapon units, and may also require tedious and complicated maintenance work. These operations do not require too profound theoretical research level, but have extremely high requirements for practical operation capabilities!"

"About this, you are the well-deserved first person!"

"However, I just explained the difficulty of this task to you. As the saying goes, 'One day in the mountains is a thousand years'. Performing such a task will have a great impact on your life plan and the future of your family!"

"You are not a poor boy who was not a penniless twenty years ago. You can travel around the world without any worries. You are the core member of the "Giant God Soldier Project". You are responsible for sorting out and writing the operating manual of the Giant God Soldier, which is equivalent to the position of the "Giant God Soldier Chief Instructor" of the Three Realms. There are many teams under your name, such as "Yaoshi Group", "Shuangjiaohui", and "Tianhuo Organization". They operate very well in the Three Realms and have a prosperous career. And you have only been married for five years and have no children yet..."

"If you perform this task, it means you have to be separated from it for at least a few decades, or even hundreds of years!"

"A hundred years of turmoil and changing. When you return from a foreign land, the Starry Federation is destined to be earth-shaking!"

"All these changes need to be considered carefully by you and Xiao Ding."

"In fact, even I don't know whether it is worth choosing you to perform this task, because you can also play an irreplaceable role when you stay in the Three Realms, and maybe you can create greater value than exploring the Star Sea!"

"So, even if you and Xiao Ding have carefully considered and refuse to perform this task, I absolutely support your decision. You can arrange some relatively close and less difficult worlds for you to explore!"

"This is my truth. Maybe it's better for you to stay in the Federation as a 'spiritual symbol'. The reputation, status, wealth and resources you can gain are much more than going to the depths of the starry sea, and can create more stable value for the Federation."

"This jade slip contains all research materials on the mysterious world since we received the mysterious signal. You and Xiao Ding might as well take a closer look, think carefully about all factors, and then reply to us. You are not too late to rush to do this."

Li Yao hesitated for a moment, took the jade slip, and the small jade slip in the shape of a jade cicada was pinched in the palm of his palm, but it seemed to have a huge weight.

After thinking about it, Li Yao asked the last question: "Teacher, this matter is indeed too complicated. I need time to think about it with Ding Lingdang! But there is one thing I am very curious about. Can you tell me how many candidates there are on your alternative list, and who else is there besides me?"

Li Yao felt a little arrogance in his heart.

He really wanted to know who else is capable of performing such a task besides him

A magnificent light flashed in Professor Mo Xuan's crystal eyes, and he slowly said: "I just said that there are many names on the alternative list, which are lying to you, and there are only two names on the entire list."

"oh?"

A glimmer flashed in Li Yao's eyes, "Who is there another one?"

"It's me."

Professor Mo Xuan stretched out a liquid metal tentacle and pointed at himself, "I put myself in the second place on the list. If you don't go, I will definitely go, so there is no need to go, so I will go with the third name."

"teacher!"

Li Yao was shocked, "You, do you want to give up everything and explore the depths of the dark nebula?"

"What, do you think I can't compare to you?"

Professor Mo Xuan smiled, Gu Jing Wubo's voice contained strong confidence, "In five years, you have been making great progress, and others will not stand still. At least I have undergone a complete transformation compared to five years ago!"

"Liquid metal body is not only as simple as swallowing the crystal brain. It can also play an unexpected role in combat!"

"Of course, I am a creative cultivator. No matter how much I practice, my combat power is not as good as you."

"But this exploration mission is mainly about lurking infiltration and intelligence collection, and it may not necessarily require a head-on battle with the enemy. My ever-changing form may be a favorable condition."

"What's more, after I swallowed Xinghai and Xingbrain, my computing power is stronger than you. I have an advantage over you in calculating astronomical parameters, deducing jump coordinates, collecting and analyzing intelligence, etc."

"Why can't I go?"

Li Yao blushed and waved his hands repeatedly, "I, that's not what I mean. I mean, if you really go, what should Teacher Yuan do?"

Li Yao refers to Professor Mo Xuan's wife, Yuan Manqiu, the former head of the weapon refining department of the Dahuang Battle Academy, and a well-known federal weapon refining expert.

Yuan Manqiu is also the first real teacher after Li Yao received systematic learning of weapon refining.

The original Xuanbone Battle Armor was made by Yuan Manqiu and Li Yao.

"She will understand and support me, I know."

Professor Mo Xuan said calmly, but the plain voice contained a feeling that was not worthy of being told by outsiders.

"But, why!"

Li Yao really couldn't figure it out, "Teacher, do you know how important you are to the future development of the Three Realms? You are now the president of the Federal Artifact Refiner Association. In the next hundred years, there are countless super magic weapons projects waiting for you to dominate! Why do you take risks in person and perform such a dangerous task!"

"If I don't believe it, I really can't find a third candidate suitable for this task. If it really doesn't work, I can still settle for the second best. Choose a top-notch strong man with outstanding abilities in one aspect, and then temporarily train his abilities on the other hand. With the calculation power, understanding and learning ability of the Nascent Soul level, it's enough for a year and a half to strengthen the special training!"

Professor Mo Xuan chuckled and said lightly: "Li Yao, you're wrong. The reason why I put myself in the second place on the alternative list is not for the future considerations, just for myself, not for the sake of the Federation, but just simply 'I want to go'!"

"You want to go..."

Li Yao was stunned and silently recited these three words several times, as if he understood something.

"Of course I want to go!"

The light that bloomed deep in Professor Mo Xuan's soul was already strongly lost and could not bear it even if his eyes were unable to bear it. A dazzling spark of Mars emerged.

The sound was like echoing among the stars, deep, ethereal and powerful. "A mysterious world deep in the sea of ​​stars is very likely to contain a large number of Pangu civilization secret treasures from hundreds of thousands of years ago, and the scale is ten times larger than that of "Kunlun"!"

"There are the most dangerous enemies, empires, holy alliances, demons, and Pangu tribes! There are also powerful potential allies, such as another cultivation civilization struggling in the dark universe, and even the Nuwa tribe who once fought side by side with humans!"

"All the answers are hidden in the fog, waiting for us to discover and explore!"

"Is there anything more interesting to a cultivator than this?"

"I am a person who has been resurrected from the dead. My second life was originally born in the storm of the starry sea. As long as I can see with my own eyes the infinite wonder of this mysterious world, even if life is destroyed in the starry sea again, what does it matter?"

"The ancients often said, 'If you hear the truth in the morning, you can die in the evening'. Maybe that's what it means!"

"So, Li Yao, do you know that if you were not really more suitable for this mission than me, I would never put you in the first place on the list!"

"Even now, I strongly hope that you can reject this task and give me this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"

"Go, think carefully with your wife, and then tell me the answer, I'll wait for you!"

Professor Mo Xuan waved his hand, ignored Li Yao, and returned to the small world of the "Tianlu Plan" with Si Koulie again.

...

Above the Great Wilderness, between the thin clouds, the sun had just risen, covering the clouds with a wave of golden and red flames.

Li Yao and Ding Lingdang walked hand in hand, looking down at the cities smaller than matchboxes under their feet, scattered in various places.

"We seem to be back twenty years ago."

Ding Lingdang said with a smile, "Do you still remember that day? At that time, you were seriously injured in the "Extreme Survival Challenge" on Demon Dragon Island, unconscious, and your spiritual roots were torn apart, and you became a useless person!"

"Of course I remember!"

Li Yao's eyes were bright, "At that time, everyone didn't believe me, thinking that I would be in a slump, so they fell to the bottom. When I forced myself to wake up, no one cared about me; only you believe me, stayed by my unconscious all day long, and made a special trip to Chixiao No. 2 Middle School to find me, and then took me to the clouds, looked down at the entire earth, enlightened my depressed mood, encouraged me to cheer up again, and strode forward!"

"By the way, I remember that you brought a lot of delicious food over that day, such as sausages, roasted chicken, ham, trousers, etc., which scared me!"

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Ding Lingdang laughed with her hips, "Did you leave an extremely deep impression on you? From then on, you fell in love with my sister uncontrollably?" (To be continued.)
