THE_WORDSMITH

Loose cultivator Shi Lang gradually found himself in the realm of invincibility. However, when he finally tried to ascend to the higher realm, the spirit of the world was nearly exhausted.

So, between his ascension to a new world or the well-being of his home, he chose the latter and sacrificed his life to save the world.

Nobody knew what he gave up for the world, and he told no one. 

Although his sacrifice had gone unsung, there was still someone who witnessed everything.  A treasured artifact he carried on his body preserved his soul and let it escape a tragic end.

Eons passed.

The human race stepped out from the age of cultivation into an age of stellar conquest. 

The spirit energy in the world was now scarce, but humans found other means to excel.

In this highly-advanced time, Shi Lang's soul has found a chance to be reborn. 

What happens when an ancient cultivator that neared the level of a deity before his first death gets a second chance at life in the space age?

Ace Of Terrans

Shi Lang and Tian got inside the vehicle and they returned to the base. The situation at the base was the same as it was when they had left. The two of them walked inside the control room in a beeline. The aura they radiated was very depressing and the Gamma could discern this at a glance.

Shi Lang came to stand in front of her and gave her a salute. Tian followed his actions in perfect sync. Gamma nodded to them as she sat in her commander chair and she asked, "What happened that made you so depressed?"

Shi Lang sighed and said, "Ma'am, the situation is not as easy as we thought it would be earlier."

He paused and then described the scene at the native settlement as it was. Gamma turned her gaze to look at Tian and the latter nodded. She asked, "You mean to say they have people stronger than a seven-star Terran living among them?"
