Even if other forces threatened him, Xu Xing had absolute confidence in his own strength.
With the help of the Source Crystal, he propelled the rapid development of the entire force, resulting in countless ability users breaking through to the fourth level, and some of them are still actively exploring the outside world.
The surrounding smaller and medium-sized forces were completely reduced to vassals, forming a relatively loose alliance.
Order has been restored in Jinghai City. Some rules are even directly based on the original legal code. Moreover, in times of chaos, severe punishments are used, and Xu Xing shows no leniency towards those who cause damage.
There are no prisons in Jinghai City. The price of committing a crime is labor, crazy labor. Whether it is building fortifications or searching for supplies in the wild, they are responsible for it all.
Xu Xing still has about ten thousand ordinary people under his command.
Once it reached a certain scale, he stopped acquiring resources from outside and instead focused on providing support. He was in charge of supplies, which allowed him to bring almost the entire province into his hands.
The plant-type ability user who was previously the hidden chess piece has now come in handy, in an open area that has been cleared and is confirmed to be safe.
She planted a large number of crops, and with her ripening aid, not only were the yields higher, but they could also be harvested in a short time.
Anyway, with a large population outflow now, leaving countless wastelands unused will only allow plants and animals to take over.
It would have been better to grow grains, but unfortunately there was no industry, so grain production remained at a very basic level, with wheat and rice even suffering from some degree of pollution.
Fortunately, this pollution does not harm human health. The biggest side effect is on the plants themselves, which have a shorter shelf life and are more prone to rotting and spoilage.
For Xu Xing, this kind of thing could be ignored.
If you ignore these, you'll see areas that have already been cleaned.
Currently, most of the land on Earth is undergoing extremely rapid evolution and iteration, unlike humans and zombies.
Plants and mutated beasts are the main characters here.
Large tracts of unclaimed wasteland, and even the outskirts of most cities, have been overrun by plants in a very short time without any human intervention.
The mutated plants are extremely domineering and ferocious; even ordinary buildings cannot stop them. They take deep root in the earth and break through all obstacles.
To restore places that have been destroyed by humans to their original state.
Plains, mountains, and hills have all become their paradise. The mutated beasts live in symbiosis with plants. Most of them may never awaken intelligence in their lifetime, but they are still a link in the food chain.
Humans seem to be slowly being marginalized; they appear to be squeezing out all intelligent beings, even those mutated beasts that originally possessed intelligence.
This situation will only get worse. Take Xu Xing's previous life as an example. Even in the city, towering trees were very common.
Xu Xing had thought for a long time about how to solve this situation in the future, or rather, how humanity should solve it.
In an ever-compressing environment, humanity has only two choices: escape or coexistence.
If the choice is to flee, it's easy to understand: either there's enough technology to support humanity and allow them to travel through space.
Either you have enough strength, enough for one person to support a space journey.
Technology has stalled; it's beyond saving.
As for strength, even in the future, there will be many people who reach level nine or even the peak of level nine, but there is truly no one who will break through to become a god.
Of course, Xu Xing was very confident in himself and he was confident that he could break down that wall.
The other symbiosis is incredibly difficult. Xu Xing, who has lived two lives, sometimes wonders if the Earth beneath his feet is intelligent.
Was everything about her controlled by him, and were humans merely ticks on his body that needed to be removed periodically?
He dared not delve too deeply into such matters, nor dared he make any unfounded speculations.

"Knock knock knock..."
"Please come in."
Hearing the knock on the door, Xu Xing stopped in his tracks.
"Boss, Miss Su Xixi is calling for you." After saying this, the messenger tactfully left first.
Xu Xing frowned: "Everyone, I'd like to leave for a bit."
After explaining things to the others in the house, Xu Xing arrived at the park in the next instant.
Xu Xing's telekinetic power now covers a very large area, and combined with his terrifying speed, he can move almost like teleporting.
"What's wrong?" Xu Xing asked.
Susie said somewhat urgently, "Just now, Xiaohong contacted me and said that he has encountered a lot of trouble and needs help."
"That troublemaker! Didn't I tell it to stay put for a while? How dare it expand outwards? Where is it now?"
Xu Xing cracked his knuckles. Ever since the day he was about to retract his fingers, he had warned Xiao Hong. Xiao Hong truly lived up to her reputation as a lucky charm with a talent for good fortune.
In a very short time, they took it all down, and sold all the rivers around Hu and only the main veins and tributaries.
Its sphere of influence was even larger than the entire province controlled by Xu Xing.
Susie lowered her head and weakly replied, "The boundary between the Yellow Sea and the East China Sea..." Then she hurriedly added:
"Maybe we shouldn't go. It's so dangerous over there. Xiao Hong made a mistake herself, so let her bear the consequences..."
Xu Xing remained silent for a moment.
This little red thing has caused quite a bit of trouble.
How come they've extended their reach to the ocean in such a short time?
You have to understand that's the ocean! Even during the golden age of humankind, we never fully explored the ocean.
The countless races within are even more numerous than those on land.
Xu Xing took out his phone, glanced at the offline map, and discovered that the border was not far from Dahai City.
The city of Dahai is even more dangerous to provoke; one wrong move and you could be surrounded by millions of zombies. Even Xu Xing felt a headache coming on.
If it were anyone else who caused this trouble, it would be one thing, but it was Xiao Hong who did it.
Xiao Hong may not have been that important before, but it has proven its worth through practice. From any perspective, we should not give up on Xiao Hong.
"It was attacked by that kind of creature?"
Xu Xing asked.
"Based on the only information it sent back, the other side seemed to be an enlarged version of a dolphin, along with many shrimp soldiers and crab generals."
"Dolphins?"
Xu Xing pondered.
This creature is highly intelligent, and in some aspects it is almost indistinguishable from humans, possessing basic social relationships.
After becoming a mutated beast, it even knows how to enslave various aquatic creatures underground.
They're not easy to deal with.
But at least it's much better than sharks or whales.
Xiao Hong's value is enough for him to make the trip.
Moreover, with his strength, even if he can't be called the best in the world, it would be hard to find anyone stronger than him.
Even if the mission fails in the end, escaping safely is still not a problem.
Moreover, he had another plan. Since he was already here, expanding on land would cause trouble, so why not try the sea? Anyway, the emperor was far away, and he wouldn't be able to destroy his base.
