Beiger, Pangon, and the others returned to the barren planet. They had fought in space earlier and consciously avoided this planet. Some of the aftershocks had also been stopped by Oathkeeper, so the planet was unharmed.
Han Xiao carried on the topic they were discussing earlier with the others. This time, the atmosphere was clearly much better. Beiger and the others were now seriously listening to his suggestions.
As the saying went, 'as long as your fists are big enough, you can make people sensible and calm.'
"… You guys are absolutely not in a state to reappear in the universe. After all, your strength has decreased after reviving, and you're now behind the era. It's best for you guys to think of ways to make up for that. In my opinion, you guys should spend more time training in isolation. Learn new technology and new knowledge," Han Xiao said.
This would not be convincing at all before the spar, but now everyone agreed with it strongly. They thought that they could only revive once, so now that they had finally been revived and had an opportunity to make up for their regrets, satisfy their ambitions, and reach new heights, they treasured it very much. They all wanted to make sure they did everything correctly.
The opportunity was extremely rare, these Primordial Ones were all very patient. They could wait.
"Black Star, you have really helped us antiques learn something new today. Not many would have been your match even in the exploration era." Beiger sighed.
They had lost a lot of face in the spar earlier, but they did not hate Han Xiao for it. At this level, no one would be that stupid.
They were not enemies. Although Han Xiao's words were harsh, they were the truth. As someone who not only saved them but was also much stronger than them, Han Xiao's words clearly carried weight.
"I've always suggested that you join the Beyond Grade A Association. Although the present is more peaceful than the exploration era, it's still shaky below the surface. Beyond Grade As are not in a safe position. You can search up the Tragedy of the Pinnacles online. That's a cleansing operation the advanced civilizations carried out against us. They've always been trying to control our numbers, so staying together is the certain trend." Han Xiao started promoting the association again.
This time, other than Pangon, who decided to take the 'revenge before life' path, the other four all started to take Han Xiao's suggestions seriously and considered taking this path.
Seeing this, Han Xiao continued. "There are more benefits to joining the association. You guys have only just revived, so you have nothing but your own strength. There's no organization or force under your command, and starting one from scratch will take a lot of time. Furthermore, the various Star Fields' territory is already split up by the various forces. Even with the strength you have, you'll still meet many obstacles… However, if you become members of the Beyond Grade A Association, you can instantly lend intelligence, resources, military forces, and so on from other members. If you want to start your own organization, we will also come together to help and provide assistance, helping you to become a part of the profit network…"
The others nodded. They were tempted.
The universe was too vast. Without manpower or money, nothing would be easy to achieve.
During the exploration era, their various civilizations provided the things they needed to them. They were used to having power. They would not be able to adapt if they had to start from zero now.
Lady Lust pondered for a while and said, "We're willing to support you, but you're only the vice president and can't be completely in charge. Furthermore, since you're this strong, the president definitely won't be much weaker…"
"Hmm, that's true. We appreciate what you did for us, but we have to think on our own behalf. Comparatively, isn't it better to support the top man in power?" Beiger asked.
Han Xiao smiled.
"Now that is something you guys don't know about. My path is different from the president's. He's very ambitious and aggressive. He wants to tie the association with him on a path with no return, which has already enraged quite a number of people. There's no chance he'll be reelected. Furthermore, he's old now. Who knows he'll just be gone one day? Hence, there's no future in supporting him. I, however, have a lot of friends and have basically already obtained the president position in the next election. Plus, there's a very high chance I'll be reelected multiple times after that. Investing in me is the best choice. I'm not just exaggerating. You guys can search it online all you like… By the way, I've defeated him too."
Although he had only beaten the Mechanic Emperor once and lost more than he had won overall, saying he had defeated him was not wrong. After all, the Mechanic Emperor was not there, so it was not like he could object it.
"I see."
Just like that, Old Manison's image was damaged once again.
The few of them discussed it for a while. Han Xiao gave many suggestions and described the current situation of the universe to them. Beiger and the others all listened carefully and learned a lot.
After Han Xiao finished talking about the intricate relationship between the three Universal Civilizations, he stopped, changed the topic, and said, "By the way, I'm very interested in the exploration era, but what I know is limited to the information on the internet. You guys are all from that era, so could you tell me more details of the situation of that era?"
He had not just gone there to set things up for the Calamity of the Supers but also to exchange information with the Primordial Ones. Seeing that the time was right, he brought up the topic.
"You've asked the right people. Who alive knows more about that era than us?"
Han Xiao had always been the one speaking while they listened. Seeing that Han Xiao had brought up a topic they were much more familiar with, they immediately became interested. They started talking about their glory days in the past all the way from the dark ages to the days of intense wars, bringing up anything that came to their minds.
Han Xiao listened, nodding and asking questions from time to time. He obtained quite a number of secrets about the exploration era war from them, as well as the information about some Primordial Ones.
"Speaking of which, do you guys know this Soul Emperor guy?"
…
"Rovell Sissock? I fought him a few times on the battlefield. That guy's quite capable, but I died earlier than him. I don't know what happened to him afterward," Lady Lust said.
"He was killed in action." Beiger shook his head. "By me."
"You killed him?" Han Xiao was immediately interested.
"Hmm, to be more details, I participated in an ambush on the Soul Emperor, along with two others. But I dealt the final blow."
Yo, now isn't this an interesting coincidence?
Han Xiao was very curious about what expression Sorokin would have when Beiger joined the association.
Hmm, given how Little Soro is, even if there's a tsunami in his mind, he'll probably still have that signature fake smile… Should I give him some stimulation by then?
Han Xiao suppressed his wicked thoughts and asked, "Are you sure he's really dead? His soul Esper Ability is rather special. Maybe he shifted his soul without anyone knowing."
"You're saying he faked his death?" Beiger was surprised for a moment. He thought for some time, shook his head, and said, "I wouldn't know about that then. Anyway, I didn't notice anything strange at that time."
"I'm just guessing. If he remained alive till now like Oathkeeper, and you see him again, will you be able to recognize him?"
"Hmm… I'm not sure. If he didn't change, my soul detection spell would recognize him. By the way, Soul Emperor is also the previous master of the Soul Flame. Oathkeeper should sense it if they met… but that also depends on if he changed his soul frequency or not. Everyone's soul frequency is unique."
Hearing this, Han Xiao rubbed his chin and pondered.
Sorokin was an expert in the soul area. He should not have left such a flaw… but that might not certainly be the case. After all, Sorokin had lived all the way till now. He would never expect to meet the Primordial Ones whom he once had contact with.
No one in the present could prove that Sorokin was the Soul Emperor, so these revived Primordial Ones became the most solid evidence…
Tsk, if Beiger recognizes Sorokin right on the spot when he joins the association, things will get very interesting.
"Black Star, I have a feeling you're trying to say something. Do you know something? Is the Soul Emperor really alive?" Beiger could not help but ask.
"Who knows?" Han Xiao shrugged. He had yet to decide whether to expose Little Soro yet. It was not the time to obtain the most benefits from doing that yet.
He paused and said, "By the way, there was a pair of sisters during the exploration era who possessed the vital and death energy respectively. What do you guys think about them?"
"Nerkese and Eros… They were very strong. They created the Underworld. Not many people dared to mess with them." Pangon finally found an opportunity to say something.
"What's the Underworld?" Han Xiao acted like he had no idea.
"That's one way of reviving too but with more cons. You'd become the vassals of the two sisters," the few of them explained.
The Oathkeeper listened for a while and said hesitantly, "Many Primordial Ones were looking for a way to revive back then. We chose the Holy Accord, while some placed their hopes in the Underworld, but…"
Lady Lust shook her head. "I'll say it. Those two sisters got lost on the path of searching for the meaning of life and death. They were very unreliable. We once invited them to join the Holy Accord, but they rejected us. Afterward, we lost contact with them and don't know what happened to them. They probably died."
Not just died, you might not believe this, but they committed suicide…

Suddenly, his body turned stiff as he realized something.
When Onicelu explained the Underworld to him back then, he did not know much about the Sanctums, but thinking about it… was the act of the two sisters leaving Information Form Esper Ability seeds behind the equivalent of snatching the information of their own Esper Abilities out from the Sanctums? Was that why these two Esper Ability seeds passed down their life knowledge?
The Great Mechanic Han was baffled. The more he thought about it, the more he felt it was not as simple as he thought.
Could the reason for the two sisters to suicide be that they found out about the Sanctum being able to revive them and wanted to attempt to revive themselves right after committing suicide to prove their theory and confirm that their path was right? Maybe they failed in the end and only left the information of their Esper Abilities behind but not themselves…
Linking this with the situation Kasuyi was in, could the impact of God's Trait Transformation missions have played a part?
Before they completely died, the word 'heritage' was mentioned among their last words… Could they have been pointing at not only their Esper Ability seeds but also The Great Reboot, the Eons of the universe‽
Thinking deeper, could Nerkese and Eros be revived through the Sanctums by using Hila, Aurora, or the Underworld as the medium? If that failed, would it mean that they were still alive in a certain way?
Han Xiao felt the more he thought about it, the more complicated it seemed.
Suppressing the shock and doubts he had, he skipped this topic and continued chatting with the others.
The few of them chatted for a while. Seeing that it was about enough, Han Xiao interrupted them and said with a smile, "Let's call it a day for today. I've already relayed my suggestions. We can be considered friends, so don't hesitate to come to me if you need anything in the future. Keep in touch."
Hearing this, everyone nodded, expressing their friendliness.
Han Xiao bade farewell one after another and then equipped the King mechanical suit before disappearing.
Beiger and the others exchanged looks after he left.
"Let's get going too. Black Star is right. I'm going to focus on training from now on. We've acquired such an amazing opportunity. Let's use it to find breakthroughs and hope to recover to our peak strength," someone said.
"Hmm… I don't plan to leave for twenty… no, forty years. I'll be staying in the Holy Accord."
Hearing their discussions, Oathkeeper smiled with comfort.
His buddies' mindsets were finally fixed by Black Star.
My efforts were not wasted…
…
Han Xiao teleported all the way back to Black Star Palace, which was multiple Star Fields away, and opened up the interface immediately. He saw the mission notification that had been flickering for quite a while right away.

_____________________
"This…"
Han Xiao was speechless.
The rewards were very rich. Very rarely did missions reward Awakening Points directly, and he even got a new talent.
The effect of the talent was quite good, giving him bonus basic attack damage just like [Fearless Heart]…
But what kind of name is this‽
I beat up a group of Primordial Ones, so I became an 'Elderly Killer'‽
Also, I can understand the bonus attack damage, but what's with the increased Charm? Did they feel I looked cool fighting? Are they going to cheer for me while I beat them up? Are all elderlies masochists?
Other than these things, the triggering mechanism was quite perfect for him—among the current Beyond Grade As, no one was younger than him…
What a weird talent. Plus, it seems to go against the traditional virtue of respecting the elderly…
Han Xiao shook his head. He went through the reward one more time and closed the interface to ponder about the impact of the things he did this time.
"I beat up the Primordial Ones, getting rid of their pride. This way, they should keep a low profile for a very long time. The Calamity of the Supers will be delayed because of it… I can be less worried for some time now."
Han Xiao let out a deep breath.
He had a lot of things to do such as study the treasure trove of technology, expand the army, collect the Sanctum fragments, and many more. Time was what he lacked most. The later the Calamity of the Supers broke out, the better it would be for him. It would be best if the signs of it only showed after he became the Beyond Grade A Association president. His position would be very firm if that was the case. Furthermore, guiding the direction the Calamity of the Supers took would be easier.
Currently, the three Universal Civilizations were fighting with the Super Star Cluster Alliance. The universe was unstable, but this was the most stable time for Beyond Grade As. There were no exterior conflicts for them, so they could grow stronger while keeping a low profile. The association would also be able to build a more complete interest network… All things aside, it had only been a few years since the founding of the Beyond Grade A Association. There were way too many things that had to be done.
It's time to focus on growing for some time… Han Xiao thought.
…
At the same time, Manison and Sorokin, who were in different places, both suddenly felt chills down their spines.
"Weird, why do I feel as if something bad has happened?"
Sorokin was troubled. Dozens of speculations flashed past in his mind.
The response of Manison, however, was much more direct and immediate.
"That little b*stard Black Star is definitely plotting against me again!"
