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 gazed at the corpse of the beast sovereign and propelled his mech up in the void. Hou Bing asked, "What are you doing?"

The Terran replied, "I have two spirit beast kings, the blood essence and Dao Core of this guy will be useful for their cultivation."

Hou Bing nodded and Shi Lang used the vibration blade to cut open the skin of the dead beast. The protection of spiritual energy did not exist any longer. Shi Lang finished harvesting the core and the heart filled with blood essence. He even took some flesh from the corpse to share it with his friends and family upon return.

This guy was a big fish and filled with nutrition. The beasts living in the river would consume whatever was left of the whale. After he finished with it, he jumped back to the northern bank of the river. He came out of the mech and stored it back in his space ring.

Hou Bing asked, "Why do you not use it to advance?"

Secret Realm.
