The world of mountains and seas Universe, the world beyond heaven.

[Master, the subsystem of the Titan world has sent back a message, do you want to view it? ]

Hearing the mechanical sound of the Heavenly Dao System, Tian Dao, who was re-evolving the Taixu Gate magical power, paused in his movements.

"Oh? These little guys are really good. They have accumulated enough energy to transmit the message back in just a few hundred years. Not bad."

"Show it to me."

Tian Dao's eyes lit up with some surprise, and the next moment the system shared the information sent back by the Titan Universe with him.

[Remaining behemoths: 12 6949 2379]

[Proven technological civilization: Level 3 cosmic civilization 0, Level 2 cosmic civilization 13, Level 1 civilization 175, Level 0 civilization 1 8539 5627]

[Known information: 18,539,5913 life planets have been discovered in the Titan world. Except for 98 artificial life planets, the rest are natural life planets.

On these natural life planets, the subsystems all discovered a special spiritual root, which the Titan beasts called the Tree of Life! 】

[The Tree of Life is a special spiritual root in the Titan Universe. Most of them are of the upper acquired quality, and a small number are of the best acquired quality.

These spiritual roots contain a huge amount of vitality, and their life span is measured in billions of years. They are suspected to have existed since the birth of the Titan Universe , and are the origin of all life, including the Titan beasts! 】

[Note: The auras of all trees of life are extremely similar, and the power of the laws they control are all the laws of life, as if they come from the same source.

Therefore, the system calculated that there is a 95.42283% probability that these trees of life are the offspring of a high-grade spiritual root! 】

Tian Dao looked through the information carefully and saw that the death rate of the giant beasts was as high as nearly 90%. He was not very concerned. The information that concerned him the most was the column about the technological civilization that had been discovered.

“It’s quite interesting. The history of the Titan Universe is at least tens of billions of years old.

Even if the number of behemoths I sent out is too small and can only detect a small part of the galaxy, it is not that there is no third-level cosmic civilization, and there are only a few second-level and first-level civilizations. "Tian Dao was amazed and a little surprised.

According to his previous calculations, in a medium-sized small world like Titan Universe, where one level-three civilization is born for every 10,000 galaxies, there should be dozens or hundreds of level-three civilizations. But in the end, there was none.

However, the number of level zero civilizations is still quite good, reaching eight digits.

This is the result of the exploration of the mountain and sea monsters in an area. The actual number of cosmic civilizations in the Titan world will only be one or two orders of magnitude larger than this.

The system voice sounded, explaining Tian Dao's confusion: [This is because of the Titans. As the son of the planet, the Titans are responsible for maintaining and protecting the balance of the planet's ecosystem.

Love what you're reading? Discover and support the author on the platform they originally published on.

In the process of developing science and technology, scientific and technological civilization must inevitably exploit various material resources and energy resources in nature, such as wood, minerals, oil, natural gas, etc.

In this way, if technological civilization wants to progress, it will inevitably destroy the planet's ecological environment, which will create a natural conflict with the Titans! 】

[Thus, a law that is not a rule but is better than a rule appeared in the Titan Universe: in order to protect the ecological environment of the mother planet, when the degree of damage to the ecological environment by scientific and technological civilization reaches a certain threshold.

The Titan monster hidden inside the planet will come out to destroy the world, destroy the technological civilization system, and cause the social system of intelligent life to fall back to the primitive period and start all over again.

Therefore, few of the technological civilizations in the Titan Universe can become a first-level cosmic civilization. Most of them will be destroyed by Titan beasts after reaching the peak of zero-level civilization! 】

In Tian Dao's classification of technological civilization levels, from the time when intelligent creatures first evolved to the 21st century on Earth or even hundreds or thousands of years later, any civilization that has not been able to develop the entire planet is considered a level zero civilization.

Each level of technological civilization can be divided into four periods: entry, early, heyday, and peak. For example, the Earth is in the heyday of level zero civilization in the 21st century.

Of course, not all Level Zero civilizations will be destroyed by Titans.

There are two ways for the first-level and second-level civilizations in the Titan Universe to break through the civilization threshold and stop the Titan's destructive behavior.

The first way is if an intelligent creature of level zero civilization suddenly wakes up during the development process and starts to pay attention to protecting the environment before reaching the threshold.

The subsequent development of civilization will not be based on destroying the environment, but will take the path of natural harmony, such as the Avatar civilization, which develops special biotechnology.

Then there is a certain possibility of reaching a consensus with the Titans, gaining more time to develop technology, and thus successfully advancing to a first-level civilization.

And once it becomes a first-level cosmic civilization, the subsequent development of civilization becomes easier.

With the technological level of a first-level civilization, it is enough to obtain sufficient materials and energy from other planets, and no longer needs to obtain them from the mother planet, so there is no fundamental contradiction with the Titans.

The second way is that the Level Zero civilization uses its technological strength to kill all the Titan beasts on the mother planet.

For example, the Pioneer civilization that invaded the Earth was one of the few first-level civilizations in the Titan world, and it broke the curse of the Titans destroying the world.

But this road is not so easy to walk.

In front of the Titans that can control the great power of nature, the Level Zero civilization confined to its home planet is no match. The former only needs to guide the changes in the ecological environment inside the planet to destroy the Level Zero civilization.

Not to mention that the king of Titan beasts is born on life planets every once in a while. That is a terrifying opponent that even the entry-level first-level civilization does not want to face!

And even if all the Titans were killed, it would not be a good thing. It would lead to the collapse of their planet's ecological environment, various natural disasters would occur frequently, and the planet would die step by step.

The Pioneer civilization is an example, which has clearly reached the level of first-level cosmic civilization.

However, because of the Tree of Life and the Titans, their technology tree went astray and they embarked on the path of developing bio-genetic technology, but they were very weak in the field of space aerospace.

As a result, when the Pioneer civilization killed all the Titans on the mother planet, the ecological environment completely collapsed and all resources on the mother planet were exhausted.

However, they do not have complete aerospace technology to migrate to the nearest star system, nor do they have planetary transformation technology to create an artificial planet suitable for survival.

As a result, the pioneer civilization was trapped on its small home planet without a complete home.

If it weren't for the fact that at the critical moment, their distorted civilization technology tree illuminated the alternative wormhole technology through research on the Tree of Life, the Pioneer civilization would have become extinct hundreds of millions of years ago!

"I see. The civilization of the Titan Universe can be said to be made by the Titan beasts, and also destroyed by the Titan beasts."

Tian Dao sighed, "When intelligent creatures first evolved, the Titans were their protectors and guides. But when technological civilization reaches a certain level and the degree of ecological damage reaches a certain threshold, the Titans will become the destroyers and terminators of civilization!"

“What a strange world!”

"And the source of all this is the Tree of Life that exists on every planet with natural life, right?!"

Tian Dao's eyes fell on the last line of information in the system, which was specially marked in bold font to indicate its importance.

As for why the Tiandao system was able to obtain this information, it was naturally thanks to the behemoths that were sent in.

Over the years, among the 10 billion mountain and sea monsters sent into the Titan world, Ghidorah is not the only one who has made a difference.

For example, in another galaxy countless light years away from the Milky Way, there was a third-level peak mountain and sea monster that found the trace of a planet with life.

Possessing the power of truth, it is far stronger than the Titans. It easily conquered the planet, killed countless Titans, and became the undisputed king of beasts.

It was also because of this giant beast that the subsystem in its body discovered that there was a vibrant spiritual root growing in the underground world of the life planet.

And in the subsequent process, the Tiandao system discovered aura similar to that of the spiritual root on all life planets.

That is why the Heavenly Dao System deduced that the Tree of Life exists on all natural life planets in the Titan world!
