My construction materials are weird

Say what you will, joke as you may, but don't make light of the Second Order, Third Layer.

Ji Mingyue understood the strength of this level. Even though she only possessed the late stage of Extraordinary Profound Transformation, through constant exposure, the Second Order was no longer a mystery to her.

In terms of level, Ji Mingyue was no different from Lin Fan, Zhu Zishan, Qingfeng, and Shangu, the top four prodigies.

All four were at the late stage of Profound Transformation, but level was level, and strength was another matter.

Zhu Zishan had the Yin-Yang Divine Soul, Qingfeng had the Dao Embryo, Shangu had the Pure Yang Body, and Lin Fan had a powerful will.

Coupled with the Qi Luck and creation gathered by the four, it was clear that she, a creature from a small world, could not compare.

In five or six years, these juniors had reached the late stage of Profound Transformation, which, strictly speaking, wasn't a huge improvement.

The reason, as mentioned earlier, was the issue of temperament and age, a significant drawback.

The previous cultivators progressed quickly because they were not hindered by age or temperament, so their progress was rapid.

Lin Fan and Zhu Zishan, etc., were starting their cultivation from scratch, while the 30,000 legends of Qingyun Mountain were being reforged after experiencing the vicissitudes of life.

The main difference was the gap in temperament.

The fundamental laws of Xuanhuang were naturally unfriendly to children, regardless of your age. In fact, the more you experienced and the more hardships you endured, the better.

As for the problem of physical aging, it didn't exist here.

The three great laws didn't care about this because every advancement and cultivation was a transformation of essence, Qi, and spirit. What did aging matter? A single transformation could solve everything.

Only wisdom and temperament were irreplaceable; you couldn't comprehend them without experiencing them firsthand.

Currently, the main battlefield for these prodigies was the Profound Pass Road.

In five or six years, they had long since cleared it, obtaining the legacies buried by Xuanhuang along the way.

Some, with good Qi Luck and strong creation, had even obtained more than one.

They had also toured Moon God City and even ventured deep into the moon to explore.

Their performance on the moon was quite remarkable, so the Four Supers and Eight Greats decided to leave places like the moon and Mars to the younger generation for exploration and development.

In addition to the five cities on the moon established by Xuanhuang, the younger generation of the Four Supers and Eight Greats also established cities for their own forces according to the headquarters' instructions.

Surrounding the five major cities of Xuanhuang, they had now initially gained a foothold.

Similarly, with the connection of the Profound Pass Road, more and more people were passing through, and cultivators from the Holy Land began to set foot on the moon and Mars frequently.

After many years, the meteor shower began, and the moon and Mars once again entered people's eyes.

The moon or Mars still had a lot of resources, such as the discovery of a kind of Star Moon Iron, a natural extraordinary material, and not just a First Order extraordinary material; occasionally, Second Order Star Moon Bronze would also be mined.

Some pulse-probing masters even speculated that there was also Third Order Star Moon Silver and Fourth Order Star Moon Gold.

However, none had been found yet; the highest level material was Second Order Star Moon Bronze.

In addition, the most abundant thing on the moon was strangeness, with various kinds of strangeness permeating it. Because it had not been swept away by cultivators, the density of strangeness here was comparable to the Holy Land.

Everyone wanted strangeness, so the strangeness on the moon was unlucky, becoming another new source for cultivators to capture it.

The poor strangeness, peacefully residing on the moon, had hardly harmed anyone from the Holy Land, yet they were found and captured.

The arrival of these cultivators completely changed the direction of the entire moon.

Because there were few pure human small worlds on the moon, many of the previous small world races didn't really think humans were that strong, just that human spirit masters were special.

But the arrival of cultivators completely changed this concept.

What kind of monsters were these?

Terribly strong, extremely fierce, not only lacking the fragility of spirit masters but also possessing almost unlimited endurance like strangeness.

Their methods were even more bizarre and varied.

But they were all ridiculously powerful, shattering their worldview.

Except for the previous Moon God City, where other races knew the strength of Holy Land human cultivators because of Xuanhuang's arrival, the creatures in other places didn't even know there was such a race as humans.

Information was always like this; what many people considered commonplace was unheard of in places with closed and backward information.

There were indeed many places on the moon that didn't know about humans, or even why they had come to the moon, or why their world had shattered.

Many questions were too advanced for these small races.

That's what the cultivators thought, but other races didn't think so?

Was the so-called civilization and prosperity us becoming slaves?

Was it that some of our races were defined as low-level creatures because they didn't fit human aesthetics, and could be enslaved and captured?

If this was civilization, then we didn't want it.

This was a very realistic problem. On Blue Star, the other creatures humans encountered were likely still humans, just some were small world humans, some were secret realm humans, and some were aboriginal humans.

The Small World Alliance was a representative of this.

However, wasn't it the case that besides the Small World Alliance and humans, there were no other races and creatures?

There were, and quite a few, but humans weren't interested in them. Any races other than humans were defined as alien races.

If these alien races were obedient, that was fine, but if they weren't, not to mention the Four Supers, even the Eight Greats had the right to define this race as an evil alien race, plotting against humans, and they would be attacked or even exterminated.

This kind of thing often happened in the Holy Land, so why hadn't it been described in writing?

Because… they were too weak, too insignificant.

So weak that there was hardly any place for them to stand in the vast Holy Land.

Only those who completely submitted to the human race, or recognized humans as their masters, would be allowed to survive in a fixed territory with human permission.

In the past five years, this situation had become more prominent. Cultivators had occupied half of the former Xia Country's territory.

It was a Xia Country that had been revived and expanded countless times, a secret realm space, a New Xia Country the size of the entire previous Xia Country.

Numbers as small as ten thousand or a hundred thousand times could not describe the territory; at least ten billion or a hundred billion times the increase was needed.

And it hadn't ended yet; it was still growing.

With such a large area, the True Cultivators occupied half of the territory, naturally encountering countless alien races. The reason why these races hadn't been described was because, as mentioned earlier, none of them were worth mentioning.

The strongest ones were only comparable to the martial artists of ten years ago, before Xuanhuang preached.

At most, they had the strength of the Third Layer of Entering the Order. Any stronger than that wouldn't work because their will wasn't strong enough and they couldn't control it, like the difficulties encountered by Mr. Liu Bi Liu back then.

With such weak strength, how could cultivators take them seriously?

The early stage of Entering the Order was the bottom layer among cultivators, the real bottom layer, barely managing to make a living.

With such strength, it's hard for humans to take them seriously; even their angry expressions seem rather cute.

However, comparatively speaking, the alien races on the Holy Land are still fortunate.

This sense of fortune requires comparison; only through comparison can happiness be derived.

At least, humans allow those harmless races to move around freely and even learn the Daoist methods of Xuanhuang. This makes them luckier than countless alien races from outer space.

Although Xuanhuang's methods aren't particularly suitable for alien races, being created with humans in mind.

Even the Mermaid Queen isn't purely human, yet she can still learn them.

Because no matter what race you are, you can't escape the three major systems of essence, qi, and spirit; you can still learn based on your own conditions.

Currently, the strongest alien race experts who have learned the three fundamental methods of Xuanhuang have reached the limit of the Entry Realm.

There were even two or three who attempted to break through to Transcendence, but all failed. Failure means demise and death.

This is the normal process of learning a method.

Unlike Qingyun Mountain back then, Xuanhuang prepared many auxiliary means: the White Bone Pagoda, the Three Saint Pills, dream projection, and so on.

The alien races don't have so many auxiliary means, nor do they have a Xuanhuang personally guiding them.

They can only explore and gain experience on their own, and the price is Dao-transformation and death after failing to break through.

But these sacrifices are not in vain; they will accumulate into experience that is passed down from generation to generation. One day, their clansmen will step on the path of white bones paved by their predecessors and truly break through to Transcendence.

From the strongest being only at the third level of the Entry Realm to attempting to break through to Transcendence, this is a huge leap.

Compared to the alien races from outer space, they are indeed fortunate. They are only subservient to humans, which isn't necessarily a bad thing.

Moreover, these alien races haven't shown hatred or hostility towards humans.

When the difference is too great, hatred and hostility are untenable; there is only fear and worship.

On the contrary, the competition among these alien races is very cruel, with a feeling of 'I am fearful and apprehensive towards the strong, but I aggressively attack the weak'.

The alien races have also formed a loose Myriad Race Alliance, with humans as the leader and the main authorities.

Humans are also one of the myriad races, so why can't they be the leader of this Myriad Race Alliance?

Moreover, without human participation, the alien races wouldn't be able to organize themselves. No one would submit to anyone else; only human participation can build such a loose alliance.

There are thousands upon thousands of alien races, among which the beast races are a large branch.

The situation of some beast races is even better than these alien races because they have been incorporated.

For example, the Human-Fox race, which produces fox-eared or fox-tailed girls. This race isn't actually strong, but the good thing is that they meet human aesthetic standards.

Humans are also visual creatures, and with so many tales of foxes circulating, many people have taken note of this idea.

The Four Supers and Eight Greats are the pillars of the cultivation world. Although the cultivation world revolves around them, it doesn't mean that other small and medium-sized forces don't exist.

Many small and medium-sized forces have started the business of trafficking living beings, and it's legal.

As long as they don't traffic humans, who cares about the rest?

Although the Hall of Merit doesn't advocate this behavior, it hasn't explicitly prohibited it either.

Everything is permissible unless prohibited by law. These forces have exploited this to the extreme, capturing and raising many alien races that meet human aesthetic standards for sale.

It has become an industry, and it's developing quite rapidly.

Of course, it's not to say there are no bottom lines; they can't just catch them at will.

Those who are on good terms with humans, recognized by humans, or have joined the Myriad Race Alliance cannot be captured at will, unless they themselves are willing.

There are certain bottom lines. If these bottom lines didn't exist, the alien races would suffer even more.

Many alien races have achieved class leaps by selling themselves, becoming human slaves or 'possessions.' There's nothing wrong with that; in the eyes of the alien races, this isn't a lowly act.

After all, aren't humans like gods? When a habitual way of thinking is formed, many seemingly evil acts will become natural.

In addition, there is another way, which is to sign a contract with humans and become human warriors.

Of course, 'warrior' sounds nice; a harsher term would be 'cannon fodder'.

Many races that are unwilling to sell themselves to humans but want to become stronger sign contracts with some small and medium-sized forces in this way.

For example, signing for ten years, twenty years, or even a hundred years.

During these hundred years, this force will train these alien race warriors and then have them risk their lives as cannon fodder.

When the contract time expires, these alien race warriors can withdraw from this force and return to their own race.

Seemingly without gain, many alien races actually support this method.

Because after being selected by these forces, these forces will train them, and the training provided by these forces far exceeds what their own race could provide.

It's even a world of difference.

These forces aren't stupid either; they can't simply sign a contract and then ignore them, purely using them as cannon fodder.

That would reduce their value. It's better to simply train them a bit, which will bring more returns.

Moreover, if you simply use them as cannon fodder without training them, the alien races aren't stupid; they won't sign contracts with you in the future.

This would leave you with no cannon fodder available, which would be even more detrimental.

Currently, no force has done this, or rather, the forces that have done this have been destroyed by other forces. With such a lack of vision and foresight, it would be strange for them to survive in such a cruel cultivation world.

This is the second way for many alien races to cross classes besides selling themselves.

In addition, there is a third way, but it's not mainstream.

It's like the foreign garbage of Xia Country before. Some cultivators who aren't doing well will specifically open schools in areas where alien races gather to teach.

As long as you pay points, you will be accepted into the martial arts hall for instruction.

These cultivators are mostly those who can't make it in the cultivation world and have no choice but to choose this path.

As for the effect?

So-so. Some are indeed better than the alien races' own teaching, while others are not as good as the teaching within their own race. It's a gamble.

The probability is fifty-fifty, so it ranks after selling oneself and contract warriors.

Why is selling oneself first? Because selling oneself means recognizing a master, and alien races who recognize a master are equal to the master's property. Such an identity cannot be compared to that of a trained warrior.

Moreover, selling oneself doesn't mean cutting off contact with the original race.

If the master is happy, they can still gloriously return to their homeland, and at this time, they can also teach some cultivation secrets with the master's permission.

This is why selling oneself ranks first.

The above three methods are the three ways that alien races can rely on humans to cross classes besides cultivating and working hard on their own.

Speaking of which, aren't humans afraid of being backstabbed by doing this?

This question is crucial and has been discussed in the cultivation world.

But the conclusion is: It's unimportant and poses no threat whatsoever.
