Chapter 1325 Sanctuary Revival

One day later, in the conference room of the three major civilizations.

"You're preparing to perform Sanctuary Revival, recalling our direct descendants?!"

Marbrus, Louis, and the head of the EsGod trio widened their eyes slightly, staring in surprise at Han Xiao's remote projection in the room.

Han Xiao spread his hands, saying seriously, "The World Tree has experts as numerous as the clouds. Due to their special mechanism, their Super-A Grade numbers won't decrease, continuously accumulating to their current scale. On our side, due to wars and other reasons, Super-A Grades in our history have been lost again and again. Although we repelled a wave of attacks from the World Tree this time, they haven't shown all of their high-level combat power. We must expand our Super-A Grade scale to slowly reverse the disadvantage in individual power."

The three leaders exchanged a look, greatly delighted in their hearts.

When the agreement was signed, there was no stipulation that Black Star had to revive direct descendants. They knew that the Super-A Grade Association was still wary of the three major civilizations. Even with an external enemy, Black Star wouldn't necessarily awaken their direct descendants, increasing the combat power of "competitors."

So, the fact that Black Star took the initiative to mention this surprised the three. Whether Black Star was trying to share the pressure on the Association members or simply considering the overall war situation, this approach was beneficial to them.

The direct descendant Super-A Grades of the three major civilizations, generation after generation, included figures like Klotti and Olru, "pillars of the nation" of their time, guardians of different eras. If they could all be recalled, it would be a huge supplement to the high-level combat power of the three major civilizations.

"This is a very wise choice. I'm glad to see you're willing to consider the situation from a broad perspective," Marbrus praised.

Han Xiao didn't take it to heart, raising a finger. "But there's one condition. These revived direct descendants must be投入正面战场 (tóurù zhèngmiàn zhànchǎng, be thrown into the front lines)."

"That's only natural," Louis nodded, understanding Han Xiao's meaning. It was impossible to let the revived direct descendant Super-A Grades sit in the rear while Association members were fighting desperately.

"Good, with that consensus, we can talk about the matter of fees," Han Xiao lowered his hand.

"Fees?"

"You didn't think this was free, did you?" Han Xiao raised an eyebrow.

"No, tell us the price," the head of the EsGod shook his head.

Because Black Star's sudden offer of help seemed somewhat righteous, the three almost thought it was free. However, they had now come to their senses, knowing that with Black Star's nature, he was unlikely to let go of this opportunity to make a fortune. Although they were currently allies jointly resisting external enemies, services that required payment would not be free. After all, their relationship was just an alliance.

The three had no objections to this. Now was the time when they were eagerly seeking help. Having this hard-earned chance to revive historical direct descendants, they would grit their teeth and pay, no matter how high the fees.

Han Xiao opened a virtual screen, listing a list of requirements and sending it to the three.

The three quickly browsed through it. The list was full of various resources, materials, and weapon requirements. Although they were expensive, they were within acceptable limits.

"You want these things?"

"That's right. Complete the list, and that's the price to exchange for Sanctuary Revival."

"We can agree to that," Marbrus readily agreed.

Han Xiao nodded. The list still contained materials for the Sanctuary Key, using the power of the three major civilizations to collect materials and supply himself with resources to enter the Sanctuary, equivalent to spending the three major civilizations' money to increase his Sanctuary permissions.

"When do you plan to start?" Louis asked.

"The Child of Destiny monitoring has confirmed that the World Tree Civilization doesn't have any major actions planned in the short term. I'll use Sanctuary Revival in the coming days," Han Xiao nodded, paused, and added, "Also, when I use Sanctuary Revival, I'll temporarily leave the main universe for about three months. I won't be contactable during that time. While I'm gone, Hela will be responsible for relaying information from the Child of Destiny monitoring channels."

"Three months…" the three felt a sinking in their hearts.

If the World Tree made any moves during this period, without Black Star, variables might occur…

The three suddenly realized that they had unknowingly developed a certain dependence on Black Star. Since the discovery of the World Tree, Black Star's actions had laid the foundation for most of the current advantages, accumulating a high degree of trust. The Special Consultant had been extremely competent. To some extent, the three almost regarded Han Xiao as the mainstay in dealing with the World Tree Civilization.

Without Black Star, they subconsciously felt less confident.

"If you're worried about the World Tree sending another Tree King, you can let Urnos participate in the battle. With his abilities, stopping a Tree King shouldn't be a problem," Han Xiao said, his heart moved.

In his previous life, Urnos didn't participate in the war. This time, he was still one of the few direct descendant Super-A Grades who hadn't been conscripted, which was very strange. Han Xiao was also curious as to why the EsGod didn't send this bastard out. Even if his main body didn't go, releasing a few Godly avatars would be fine.

"There are some special reasons why he can't conveniently take action," the head of the EsGod shook his head.

"What special reasons could be more important than the threat of the World Tree?" Han Xiao raised an eyebrow.

He was full of energy when fighting me, but when facing external enemies, he had all sorts of excuses. Could it be that Urnos was the type to be meek externally and aggressive internally?

“…In short, there are some reasons,” the head of the EsGod kept his mouth shut, suddenly changing the subject. “By the way, can you unseal the Allfather's Scepter?"

"Urnos isn't participating in the war, but you're asking me to unseal his weapon?"

"Even if he doesn't use it, the Allfather's Scepter is a great weapon to deal with individual powerhouses."

"We'll see," Han Xiao said noncommittally.

The Allfather's Scepter could indeed increase the combat power of high-level forces, but he didn't plan to unseal it for the EsGod just yet.

After a pause, he spoke again.

"I need to obtain some mediums related to the revival targets. In the next few days, give me the mediums of the direct descendants you want to revive."

The three nodded, their hearts stirring slightly.

They were also organizing people to study the Sanctuary. This was the first time they learned that Sanctuary Revival required a medium. But thinking about it, it was normal. If a medium wasn't needed, wouldn't they be able to revive Super-A Grade individuals from other unknown civilizations at will?

At this time, Han Xiao added, "Also, this time I'll be reviving some direct descendants from the Beyond Grade A Association."

"Hmm?" The eyes of the three changed slightly.

In that instant, the three thought of many things, subconsciously believing that this was Black Star's way of maintaining balance.

Reviving the direct descendants of the three major civilizations was a threat to the Super-A Grade Association, so Black Star was specifically reviving the direct descendants of the Star Cluster Alliance, forming a three-legged balance to restrain the three major civilizations. This approach could also be explained by reviving the direct descendants of the three major civilizations, namely, considering the overall situation of the war. The three, as beneficiaries who enjoyed this reason, couldn't turn their backs and refute it.

"Don't think too much. I just made a deal with the Star Cluster Alliance before. I don't plan to violate this agreement," Han Xiao ignored the eyes of the three, answering casually.

“…Of course,” the three adjusted their mentality and returned to composure.

Many of the Star Cluster Alliance's historical direct descendants died in the Twilight of the Gods. The hatred between the two sides was deeply rooted. Once they were revived, it would inevitably be troublesome.

However, Sanctuary Revival was controlled by Black Star. They could only accept this change. Moreover, the three believed that as long as their own historical direct descendants were revived one after another, they wouldn't have to worry about the Star Cluster Alliance stirring up trouble.

The two sides quickly reached a consensus. Han Xiao was preparing to end the communication when he suddenly remembered something and asked, "By the way, how's the progress of the sub-dimension expedition team?"

"There have been some losses, but there's still no discovery," Marbrus shook his head.

Hearing this, Han Xiao sighed inwardly.

The World Tree Civilization didn't know that they had sent out troops long ago to search for the main body. The sub-dimension expedition team was the key to victory for the three major civilizations.

…

Star Cluster Alliance, Joint Conference Room.

After meeting with the leaders of the three major civilizations, Han Xiao immediately contacted the Star Cluster Alliance. At this time, the leaders of the various star cluster civilizations were all in the room, staring at Han Xiao.

"Black Star, the results you've achieved this time are astonishing. Before you came, we were still talking about you."

"If we didn't know your abilities, we would almost think that this external enemy was very weak based on such a battle report," several civilization leaders said, expressing their praise.

"It's alright. It's mainly because the Super-A Grade group worked together," Han Xiao casually replied, observing the expressions of the many civilization leaders present, calculating rapidly in his heart.

Based on his understanding of the star cluster civilizations, these bastards were probably expecting the three major civilizations and the World Tree to suffer together, so they could rise to power. Therefore, seeing such low battle damage, the Star Cluster Alliance might not be too happy.

He remembered that in his previous life, the Star Cluster Alliance even had a backup plan, which was to take advantage of the war between the three major civilizations and the World Tree, taking their own civilizations and leaving the explored universe, running away in the middle of the war, believing that the three major civilizations resisting the external enemies wouldn't be able to spare the energy to stop them, and could only watch them leave.

However, after completely experiencing the abnormalities of the World Tree Civilization, the Star Cluster Alliance understood that this was drinking poison to quench their thirst. In the end, they didn't activate this backup plan, instead wholeheartedly cooperating with the three major civilizations to resist the enemy.

Han Xiao estimated that the Star Cluster Alliance probably had similar ideas now. Having been suppressed and bullied by the three major civilizations for so long, from their standpoint, it was impossible that they hadn't considered this route.

While he was thinking about it, the leader of Star Arc tapped the table and asked, "Black Star, what's the matter with you contacting us this time?"

Han Xiao composed himself and said, "I'm here to fulfill the agreement."

"Which agreement?"

"I promised you that I would revive ten direct descendant Super-A Grades through Sanctuary Revival. Now is the time."

As soon as he finished speaking, the leader of Star Arc and many other civilization leaders were overjoyed.

After reaching the agreement, the Star Cluster Alliance quickly gathered the revival fees and gave them to Han Xiao in one go, but when the revival would take place was up to Black Star to decide. They didn't know when Black Star would drag it out until, but the deposit had already been paid, so they could only wait patiently.

And now, they had finally waited for this day!

It was worth being the backup plan!

As expected, everything comes to those who wait!

The leader of Star Arc suppressed his excitement and said, "Understood. What do we need to prepare?"

"You'll need some mediums…"

Han Xiao repeated the explanation he had given to the three major civilizations, which caused everyone to nod frequently.

After explaining everything, Han Xiao looked around at the expressions of everyone, smiled, and added, "There's one more thing. For the next revival, it will still be ten spots for you, and you'll still need to purchase them. Discuss among yourselves whether you want to increase the weight."

"We will definitely accept," the leader of Star Arc immediately said.

Ten spots were far from enough to revive all the historical Super-A Grades of their star cluster civilizations. Since Black Star was willing to sell ten more spots, there was naturally no reason to refuse.

"You don't need to rush to make an offer. It won't be too late to do so after I bring back this batch of revivers," Han Xiao waved his hand.

The two sides exchanged a few more words before hanging up the communication.

Only the many civilization leaders were left in the conference room, their faces finally revealing joy.

"Once our direct descendants return, our plan will be more secure. Black Star has done us a great favor this time," the leader of the Star Arc Civilization took a deep breath, feeling excited.

Everyone didn't know at this time that Black Star, who only gave them ten spots each time, was selling an unlimited number of revival spots to the three major civilizations.

…

Two days later.

Ancient Star Desert, somewhere.

The Covenant Organization's spaceship floated in the starry sky, preheating its equipment in preparation for opening the Sanctuary channel.

Han Xiao stayed in the main ship, talking to Hela and other high-level executives.

"During the time I'm using Sanctuary Revival, the legion will be under your command. Pay attention to preserving your strength… If the World Tree makes a move, Aurora, you must be careful to protect yourself. It's best to persuade Manison and Kasuyi to temporarily act as your bodyguards. This time, the World Tree has lost quite a few powerhouses, so they won't be revived so quickly. The intensity shouldn't be too high…"

"Don't worry, I have the power to protect myself now," Aurora nodded.

"But you must also guard against the unexpected. If anything unexpected happens, you'd better evacuate. I've provided Hyperion with some monarchs. Although he's not participating in the war for the time being, if there's any danger, he'll use his machinery to teleport you away…"

After giving instructions and handing over command to the many executives, Han Xiao hung up the communication.

"Are you done talking? Then I'll start?" the Covenanter next to him asked.

"Let's do it," Han Xiao nodded.

The order was transmitted, and rays of light shot out from the Covenant Organization's spaceship, pouring into the First Sanctuary Key.

Soon, the familiar scene appeared again, and six phantom light gates appeared, eventually leaving only one, transforming into the channel to the First Sanctuary.

Han Xiao took a deep breath, turned into a shooting star, and plunged into the Sanctuary channel.

The next moment, the light gate quickly shrunk, and a slender beam of light flashed, like the screen of an old television shutting off.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the Sanctuary channel and Han Xiao disappeared together, leaving nothing in the field.

The Covenanter breathed a sigh of relief.

That annoying guy is gone… Finally, I can experience the feeling of one voice again!
