On the moon, a plain lies amid towering mountains. The plain is dotted with a dense array of classical buildings, magnificent and neatly arranged.

Indeed, it’s the building complex seen by the Eye of the Ghost King!

Lanling slowly descended in the middle of this architectural complex!

A silence, with no sound, no sign of life.

He walked into the central hall, touching the ground, touching the walls, stroking the carved jade-like pillars, all made of energized material.

Lanling laughed: "On Earth, the moon has Guanghan Palace. They say above the moon, there are jade towers and celestial terraces, chilling at heights. Didn’t expect them to really exist..."

Still no response.

Lanling walked to the throne in the hall, marveling, yet not sitting upon it.

"No one here?" Lanling shouted loudly.

Still no response from anyone.

"I killed your envoy Shi Yiyue, are you not intending to settle accounts with me?" Lanling asked.

Still no response!

Lanling pulled out the Gods Slaughter Demon Extermination Sword and started hacking at the hall frantically.

In an instant, the pillars and throne were slashed to pieces.

Yet, no one paid attention.

Next, Lanling traversed the entire palace complex, not finding even a ghostly shadow.

Despite discovering the energy reflection of the moon and finding the Lunar Holy Palace, it was still empty.

So, Lanling decided to take the most mundane approach, using the Gods Slaughter Demon Extermination Sword to dig fiercely, from the ground downward.

This is the energy reflection of the moon; everything here is materialized, including Lanling himself and his sword, making digging quite difficult.

Digging over ten thousand meters deep in one day.

Day one, day two, day three, ten days...

This excavation is essentially energy damage, Lanling using his bloodline energy to tear through the moon’s materialized substance.

A full twenty days later, Lanling had dug two hundred thousand meters deep, a full two hundred kilometers.

But still, there was nothing to show for it.

Moreover, his energy was nearly depleted; he only had enough left to return to the Dragon Demon Planet. If he didn’t return soon, he’d never make it back.

Previously, Lanling had given up on further searching and returned to the Dragon Demon Planet.

This time, Lanling cut off his own retreat!

If he couldn’t return, then he simply wouldn’t. After all, he had already bid farewell to his family on the Dragon Demon Planet.

Digging madly!

Twenty-one days, twenty-two days...

Digging full twenty-five days, digging this fully energized moon five hundred li deep.

Yet still, nothing was found.

No energy fluctuations felt, no trace of life discovered.

Digging thirty days!

Thirty-five days!

Finally, digging eight hundred li deep.

Still nothing found.

How to describe the energy material here? If Lanling wasn’t an Emperor-level Powerhouse, he wouldn’t even penetrate an inch. Every inch here is equivalent to the energy wall of the Heaven and Earth Barrier, fully materialized.

Yet Lanling dug eight hundred li deep madly.

Then his bloodline energy was completely depleted, still finding nothing.

He closed his eyes and fell directly asleep.

...

When he awoke again!

He was already in a dreamlike world. He lay within a crystal stone cover, overlooking the entire world below.

This was an extraordinarily bizarre super metropolis.

Countless skyscrapers, countless densely packed flying cars. The entire city was three-dimensional, very similar to the Heavenly Demon Ancient City built by Emperor E Tian.

If nothing was out of the ordinary, this was a civilization world in the moon’s internal space, while the Heavenly Demon Ancient City was within a mountain’s interior.

The Heavenly Demon Ancient City was only tens of thousands of meters, while the world before him was a circular interior space with a diameter of nearly ten thousand li. From the lowest level of this world to the highest, it’s a full ten thousand li.

This world had jade towers and celestial terraces, as well as skyscrapers.

Lanling saw airborne trains and subways, saw innumerable glowing billboards, saw countless holographic projections.

This was an extraordinarily prosperous, strong, and modernized super energy civilization.

In terms of civilization level, in every aspect, it far exceeded Earth.

Lanling sat up!

A humanoid figure walked over gracefully!

Is it Shi Yiyue?

It looked exactly like Shi Yiyue, with the same slender and graceful body curves, yet there were no gender characteristics, no face.

"I am not Shi Yiyue, I am just like her, merely an energy lifeform created," the energy lifeform said. "If you wish, you may call me Shi Yiyue."

"Is this the Lunar Holy Palace?" Lanling asked.

Shi Yiyue replied, "To be precise, it is the civilized world under the rule of the Lunar Holy Palace, a super-civilized world. If you don’t mind, I can take you out for a look?"

Then, a small spacecraft flew over, and Shi Yiyue led Lanling onto the ship.

"Whoosh..."

The spacecraft began to dive quickly, with its speed reaching an extreme, making everything around unclear.

"The entire moon civilization world now has a population of 1.8 billion, which is too crowded, so the Temple Council decided to aim to reduce the moon civilization population to 500 million within a thousand years," Shi Yiyue said. "We’re here!"

The spacecraft stopped its rapid descent.

"The lunar civilization world is divided into nine layers, spanning a total of 4,900 miles from the lowest to the highest layers," Shi Yiyue said. "We are now at the lowest layer of human civilization."

Lanling said, "Are we now in the central area of the moon’s inner space?"

Shi Yiyue replied, "Yes, it is also the layer with the largest cross-sectional area and the most populous area, home to the socially underprivileged, about 500 million, constituting more than half of the human population."

Lanling said, "The human society occupies half of the moon’s inner space; what about the other half?"

"It is, of course, the Demon Race World," Shi Yiyue said. "The firm energy ground beneath us completely isolates the Demons from humans. The northern hemisphere is human, the southern hemisphere is demons, separated clearly with no interference."

Lanling asked, "Who is the highest ruling layer of the Demon Race?"

Shi Yiyue replied, "It’s also the Supreme Temple Council, where half the members are human, the other half are demons. You might as well have a good tour of this world."

The spacecraft shuttled between countless skyscrapers.

There are countless factories, countless shops, countless institutions here.

Skyscrapers here easily have hundreds of floors.

Shi Yiyue said, "This first layer, the civilian world, spans 15 million square kilometers, with a sky height of 50,000 meters, hosting 500 million underprivileged civilians, and a larger number of energy robots whose responsibility is likened to endless worker ants, producing all the goods needed by the world."

Lanling focused his eyes and indeed saw countless densely packed crowds toiling hard, purely physical laborers.

The goods produced are carried away by countless giant flying ships.

"About a millennium ago, we already created energy life robots that could fully replace the lower-level civilians, so the council proposed a massive population reduction, but it was denied thousands of times. Approximately three years ago, this resolution was finally passed, aiming to reduce the demon and human total population to 500 million in the next millennium," Shi Yiyue said.

"Let’s move to the second layer..."

The spacecraft shuttled swiftly to the second layer of moon human civilization!

"The second layer covers an area of 11 million square kilometers, with a sky height of 80,000 meters, hosting a population of 200 million. They are engaged in basic intellectual work, such as completing basic designs for large energy machines and large energy weapons, considered the intellectuals of the energy civilization’s lower tier," Shi Yiyue said.

Next, Shi Yiyue took Lanling to the third, fourth, fifth, sixth layer...

All the way to the ninth layer world!

The third layer world houses the Martial Arts people. The fourth layer hosts the engineers of the high-energy civilization; the fifth shelters high-level energy manipulators; the sixth is where meditators, artists, top energy civilization designers, and others reside.

The seventh layer is home to the most elite Martial Arts masters; the eighth layer to high-level priests.

The ninth layer is the Supreme Temple Council, the highest rulers of the entire lunar super energy civilization.

In summary, the entire lunar super energy civilization is a hierarchical world without comparison, where no one can transcend.

It is also a super highly developed energy civilization, surpassing countless people’s imagination.

Even in Earth’s Hollywood sci-fi movies, you cannot see a world like this.

Here are the means of communication, the energy light brains, the super universe battleships, the spatial shuttles, the flying ships, the energy robots, and so on.

It is a developed civilization that can leave people speechless, shocked.

A super civilization that makes people feel incredibly small!

...

Like a fleeting glance, after witnessing the nine-layer world of lunar super energy civilization, they returned to the giant energy dome at the highest point.

Shi Yiyue asked, "What are your thoughts after seeing it, Lord Lanling?"

Lanling replied, "More advanced than the Dragon Demon World by a hundred years, but only just a hundred years."

With that said, Shi Yiyue’s eyes contracted.

Clearly, this was not the answer the Lunar Holy Palace wanted to receive.

Lanling wasn’t undermined, nor did he feel insignificantly small, instead, he expressed a kind of cold smile and sarcastic tone.

Suddenly, Shi Yiyue chuckled, "Lord Lanling, Emperor E Yun once tried to develop advanced energy civilization, and you saw the result..."

Emperor E Yun’s Demon Capital was turned to ash by the star force of the Lunar Holy Palace’s might.

Shi Yiyue collected her smile and said, "Dragon Demon World belongs to our low-level civilization world, and is not allowed to explore advanced energy civilization, otherwise, what awaits you is utter disaster. Hopefully, Lord Lanling, you will pay attention and correct the current mistakes! Otherwise, another star force might soon descend upon your world."
