Time passed, and it was another 3,000 years.

The mechanical race, which has lost the fire source, is obviously in a dilemma in replenishing its strength, because this race is very peculiar, and the offspring are not born by mating, and the intelligence comes from the gift of the fire source.

After losing the source of fire, the mechanical race is like having its foundation cut off, if you use the city-state game to show it, the human population has always been followed by the + sign, and the population of the mechanical people has always been the - sign.

At first, it was inconspicuous, because of the huge size of the ethnic group, even if it faced the crisis of dynastic breaking, it would not be obvious for one or two thousand years.

It was not until the third millennium, the sixth millennium of the race wars, that the effects of dynastic breakage appeared.

On the side of the human alliance, the second, third, and fourth-order ordinary monks at the beginning of the battle have changed batch after batch.

Some of them died in battle, some were promoted, some were seriously injured and returned to the human realm, opened up their own families in a small town, and became the ancestors of many of the younger generations of the clan.

Or, after being seriously injured and retiring, he played a warm-up role in the alliance, served as a supervisor in a government department, and became a servant of the people.

But what about the mechs?

Without the replenishment of grassroots soldiers, the overall strength has been declining.

War is a meat grinder, and now on the interstellar battlefield, there are no ordinary mechanical clans below the fifth order.

Instead, there is a programmed robot, which is worse in combat effectiveness and even has no autonomous consciousness, and is nicknamed cannon fodder robot by the coalition forces.

Cannon fodder robots are purely technological creations, and they do not have advanced intelligence, let alone the wisdom and thinking ability given by the source of fire like orthodox machines.

On the other hand, on the side of the coalition forces, there are constantly low-level monks promoted to intermediate monks, and middle-level monks are promoted to high-level monks, which is a virtuous circle.

Battlefield reaction is the most intuitive embodiment of the strength of a race.

No one is going to hide on this, the automaton, I'm afraid it really won't work.

In the year 16999 of the Xiuzhen calendar, Wang Xu, who was about to celebrate his 7,000th birthday, sat in the headquarters and watched the front-line battle report.

After two expansions, the original 36 group armies have grown to 72, which are divided into six major theaters.

Wang Xu is currently serving as the commander-in-chief of the Third Theater of Operations, with twelve group armies under his command, and Leng Han and others, who have been promoted to commander of the group army, have now become strong men in their own right.

Within the Expeditionary Force, Wang Xu is recognized as the future Ninth Speaker, and although the appointment has not yet been officially issued, no one will refute this statement.

Many people say that the day Wang Xu was promoted to the eighth rank was the time when the ninth speaker was appointed.

Wang Xu laughed at these rumors, he would not tell others that this was not a rumor, but that the military department was building momentum against him.

The three of them became tigers, and when everyone thought that when he was promoted to the eighth rank, it was the time when the ninth speaker was appointed, and when it was really appointed, everyone would not feel sudden.

It's just that it's not that easy to advance to the eighth order.

As early as three thousand years ago, Wang Xu's cultivation had reached the seventh-order consummation, and the opportunity to be promoted to the eighth-order was still far away.

He always felt that he was short of something, and if he didn't find that kind of thing, he would never be promoted.

The feeling is very strong, it comes very quickly and very directly.

What's missing?

Wang Xu has been asking himself in his heart, the last time he was promoted from the sixth order to the seventh order, it was because of the outbreak of the race war, the luck of the two races was churning, and he had his own luck blessing in the dark.

Is it still luck?

No, it shouldn't be pure luck, over the years, the human race has been victorious, devouring a lot of territory of the mechanical race, and its strength and power have expanded by at least one-third compared to six thousand years ago.

The strength is stronger, the territory is bigger, and the natural human race occupies more luck in this universe.

He couldn't be promoted, not because of lack of luck.

In the past six thousand years, a large number of monks in the Merge Period have been promoted to the Mahayana Period, and a large number of Mahayana Stage monks have been promoted to the Tribulation Period, which is a reaction to the ever-prosperous humanity, and the seventh order has been promoted to the eighth order, and it is not the eighth order to the ninth order, which is enough for him to be promoted in terms of the current luck of the human race.

What could it be?

Wang Xu was always full of confusion, until one day, he heard the words Yin and Yang are born, Yang is born of Yin, Yin and Yang are born together, and creation is one from the mouth of the Black Prison True Prison.

Yin!

Yang!

The understanding of yin and yang of the real people in the black prison is that the natal corpse is yin, the monk is yang, and the monk and the natal corpse are yin and yang, seizing the creation of heaven and earth, and turning decay into magic.

And when Wang Xu heard this, what he thought of was not the monk and the natal corpse, but the yin and yang sides of fate.

For the Xiuzhen world, Yang Xun is Yang and a decent protagonist, and after Yang Xun's death, Chen Yi is Yang and takes over Yang Xun's position.

So who is Yin, is it cold?

No, just as he changed Yang Xun's fate and caused him to die, Leng Han's fate has already been changed by him.

Wang Xu is very sure that Leng Han's current template is definitely not the template of the villain's protagonist.

If you have to find a villain protagonist in the Xiuzhen world, this person will not be cold, it is more likely to be him, he is the opposite of yin and yang.

Thinking of this possibility, Wang Xu suddenly became enlightened.

He was unable to advance to the eighth rank and win the world, not because he did not have enough understanding by chance, but because the two sides of yin and yang had not yet been distinguished.

The luck he needs is not the luck of the human race, but the luck of Chen Yi's protagonist.

The protagonist template that Chen Yi has is the barrier breaking pill that he breaks through the eighth order.

"Commander-in-chief, Chen Yi has found it."

Zhu Yan was wearing a military uniform and saluted Wang Xu heroically.

Wang Xu raised his eyebrows, put down the battle report in his hand, and said in a deep voice: "Where is it?" ”

Zhu Yan didn't answer immediately, but turned on her brain and projected a picture.

In the picture, there are two young men and women who are going on an outing, and the female Wang Xu can't recognize who the man is not Chenyi.

"It's been so many years, Chen Yi, you finally appeared, it's really easy for me to find!" Wang Xu had joy in his eyes and said, "Where did you find him?" ”

"This..."

Zhu Yan's expression changed for a while, until Wang Xu was about to get impatient, and then he whispered: "According to the information we have received, three thousand years ago, Chen Yi worshiped under the Tianyuan Zhenren Sect and became the seventh disciple of Tianyuan Zhenren, and has been practicing in the Tianyuan Secret Realm, and only appeared in the Ancestral Star not long ago. ”

"Tianyuan Secret Realm, no wonder I can't find any trace of him all these years, this is hugging his thighs."

Hearing that Chen Yi appeared again, he actually appeared as the head of the Eight Masters of Cultivation, the first master of Qi Training, and the disciple of Tianyuan Zhenren, Rao Yi also felt very tricky with Wang Xu's character.

Since the last battle, Wang Xu personally smashed Chen Yi's body and let him be rescued by a mysterious person, the Wang family's search for Chen Yi has never relaxed.

But he was like ashes, there was no trace at all, even if Wang Xu sensed the key to promotion to the eighth order, maybe in Chen Yi, he would not find anything for hundreds of years.

Unexpectedly, Chen Yi had another chance, and now he not only completed his physical body, but also became a disciple of Tianyuan Zhenren.

Thousands of years have passed, and now such a high-profile appearance, does he think the time is ripe?

"Who's that girl?" Wang Xu retracted his gaze and put it on the girl who was with Chen Yi.

Zhu Yan replied: "She is the descendant of Tianyuan Zhenren, and she is the most important bloodline descendant of Tianyuan Zhenren, some people say that the girl is very similar to Tianyuan Zhenren's wife back then." ”

"Interesting!"

The smile in Wang Xu's eyes was even stronger, the protagonist deserved to be the protagonist, he suffered a loss without a background last time, and as a result, he climbed to a high branch in a blink of an eye.

And judging from Chen Yi's talent, if he doesn't appear for three thousand years, he will make a big splash as soon as he appears, and he has obviously made a breakthrough in cultivation, and he should have reached the seventh order.

Mid Seventh Order or Late Seventh Order?

It can't be the early stage of the Seventh Order, Wang Xu has been majestic all these years, and reports on him have emerged in endlessly, and it is impossible for Chen Yi not to pay attention to it.

Chen Yi should know very well that his strength has reached the seventh-order consummation, and without the cultivation of the middle and late stages of the seventh-order, he would not dare to appear in front of Wang Xu.

As for the seventh-order consummation, the likelihood is also not high.

After Chen Yi's physical body was destroyed, it should have taken a long time to repair his physical body, plus he was apprenticed three thousand years ago, calculating the time, the possibility of raising his cultivation to the seventh order consummation is very small.

Most likely, Chen Yi's current cultivation is in the middle of the seventh order or the late seventh order, and the possibility of the late stage is greater.

Chen Yi is a genius who can fight across the fourth order, and with his cultivation in the late seventh order, his true combat power will be comparable to that of the late eighth order.

Only with such strength can he initially protect himself in front of Wang Xu.

After all, with an enemy like Wang Xu and no self-preservation, Chen Yi would not dare to come out easily.

"Ask for leave from the military department for me, just say that I haven't returned for thousands of years, and I should go back and see."

Wang Xu stroked the ring in his hand, the golden apostle ring, shining in the war room.
