Gao Wu: Become stronger by grinding Erlang Shen's talents

Chapter 610 The Trend of the Times! (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

Standing at the very front of the crowd was the tall and imposing Crimson Emperor, dressed in a red robe, flanked by the Overlord, the Sword Emperor, and the Mountain and River King.

Even countries like the White Eagle Federation, the Russian Bear Country, the Indian Kingdom, and the Sakura Country sent their strongest warriors.

Upon seeing Lin Qi's arrival, everyone nodded in response.

"Lynch!"

Sun Sheng and Li Tianxing also arrived and waved to Lin Qi when they saw him.

"Hoohoo!!"

Meanwhile, not far away, three figures were suspended in the air.

Landing slowly in a gentle breeze, the leader was none other than the Tu Lan Inspector, with his blue robe, silver skin, and exquisite features.

Two guards followed her!

Lin Qi frowned because he noticed that the three guards from before had not come with him this time.

The new guard arrived; he was a burly man in a silver battle suit, exuding a powerful and domineering aura. Although he was less than three meters tall, his presence was even stronger.

The other person was muscular and exuded a strong mental aura; he was a mentalist.

The powerful auras of the two attracted the attention of many.

Tu Lan looked at everyone and introduced them:
"This is a new guard dispatched by the Deep Space Branch!"

The black-robed God of War couldn't help but speak:

"The guards that Patrol Envoy Tulan has brought this time are very special, much stronger than the previous team members."

The Crimson Emperor said, "They should be martial artists at the peak of the second realm of the universe!"

Tu Lan laughed and said, "That's right, the other group members are all ordinary second-level universe cultivators, or even sky-diving cultivators."

"As for Noek and Savon, they are warriors at the peak of the second realm of the universe, more than enough to protect me."

"With them around, the people of the Ryujin Civilization don't dare to be too presumptuous."

The Crimson Emperor said gratefully, "Thank you!"

Tu Lan waved her hand and said, "It's nothing!"

She pressed the bracelet on her wrist, and a screen was instantly projected, displaying the message:

"The Flowing Blade Civilization has almost entered the solar system!"

"It's a real problem not having a planetary defense platform. The Flowblade civilization's spaceships have already entered the solar system, and you still can't detect them. By the time they reach Earth, it will be too late."

"However, the planetary defense system and orbital cannon that you bought with a loan are already on their way and should arrive in a week at the latest."

"This is already expedited; otherwise, it might have taken another month!"

The onlookers nodded; although they also had satellites, they could only monitor the area around Earth.

However, it was of little use because the technological gap was too large; without railguns, they couldn't eliminate their opponents.

Therefore, planetary defense platforms and orbital cannons are in great need.

"Boom!!"

Just then, a deafening roar echoed through the sky, and a massive black shadow appeared in everyone's sight.

The first thing that catches the eye is a huge spaceship shaped like a giant silver blade, several times larger than the patrol officer's ship.

The headquarters had been cleared out in advance, and the spacious plaza that had been prepared was barely enough to stop the spaceships; the other people's fighter jets had to be parked elsewhere.

"Buzz!"

The spaceship came to a stop, its heavy, rigid aura overwhelming them. This was the first time humanity had ever seen a spaceship larger than an aircraft carrier.

It is close to the size of a level 10 calamity beast.

Everyone seemed incredibly small in its presence, and the atmosphere became serious.

Lin Qi had no doubt that this spaceship alone could destroy the entire planet Earth.

"Buzz!"

He secretly activated his [Golden Eyes] to observe the metallic materials on the surface of the spaceship.

It is a silvery metal with a smooth surface that exudes a chilling gleam.

He could sense that it was an extremely hard metal.

"The material used to build this spaceship is actually harder than my ninth-tier weapon!"

Lynch was alarmed. He had awakened three types of metal abilities, making him more sensitive to metal structures.

The metal material of this spaceship was actually harder than his ninth-tier spear, which was unbelievable.

Is this the power of other civilizations in the universe?
"boom!!"

Before everyone's eyes, the massive cabin door slowly opened, and everyone stood ready, quietly waiting for the people from the Flowing Blade Civilization.

The hatch opened, and several figures appeared in everyone's sight, accompanied by an intense pressure.

A group of men and women dressed in silver armor surrounded a burly man in white who slowly walked out.

Of all the people, his aura was the strongest.

Everyone could tell at a glance that this was a powerful expert at the second level of the universe.

Moreover, their imposing presence was no less than that of Tu Lan's bodyguards.

Although the others also possessed the aura of the second level of the universe, none of them were as strong as the guards.

Faced with the oppressive aura, everyone on Blue Star frowned, while at the same time, a terrifying aura was released from the Crimson Emperor.

Resisting the pressure!
"I am Liu Yu!"

Faced with the Crimson Emperor's powerful aura, Liu Yu nodded inwardly, even though the other party had not yet broken through to the second realm of the universe.

However, its aura is so powerful that even ordinary second-level universe cultivators cannot compare.

He looked around at everyone, his gaze landing on Inspector Tu Lan, whose two guards posed a strong threat to him.

Is this an attempt to support Earth's civilization?

He had a clear understanding of the situation and quickly analyzed it.

Then he slowly began to speak:

"Everyone, I am Liu Yu!"

"This time, on behalf of the Liuren Civilization, we are supporting the Lanxing Civilization!"
The Crimson Emperor stepped forward and extended his hand, saying:

"Blue Star welcomes everyone from the Flowing Blade Civilization!"

Liu Yu reached out and shook hands with him.

Then Liu Yu shook hands with Tu Lan and greeted her.

The Crimson Emperor spoke, "Next, please follow me!"

"We've already arranged accommodations!"

Liu Yu waved his hand and said, "We've rested enough on the spaceship, let's get started!"

The Crimson Emperor nodded and said, "Alright!"

Then Liu Yu selected a group of people, and they headed to headquarters.

The people of the Ryujin civilization looked around curiously, and one woman couldn't help but shake her head and say:

"Is this the home planet of the Blue Star civilization?"

"As expected of a lost galaxy, the energy concentration here is far too low."

"Even with the energy backflow from the trial planets, it's only one-twentieth the energy concentration of Fenglin Star, not to mention our home planet Liuren Star, which is at least a hundred times worse!"

"In such an environment, one could not break through to the Sky-Soaring Realm even after cultivating for hundreds of years."

"Without the Trial Planet, they would be no match for our Flowing Blade Civilization."

"I suspect that there are top-tier natural treasures on the trial planet, such as the Vajra Fruit, which can greatly enhance one's physical abilities and awaken an additional power after consumption."

"There's also the Fire Marrow Fruit. It's said that after consuming it, one's body can undergo a complete transformation, awakening three fire-attribute abilities and instantly becoming a galaxy-level genius."

"The Blue Star civilization possesses so many geniuses precisely because it obtained these rare and precious materials."

"Otherwise, it's impossible to explain why such a barren planet could produce so many geniuses."

"If I can find such a rare and precious material, I might become a galaxy-level genius."

"I've already done a quick look. The trial planet is huge, much bigger than Earth."

"The Trial Planet has only been invading Blue Star for less than 50 years, and it has been constantly attacked by calamity beasts."

"Their exploration rate of the trial planet is less than 1%."

"And this trial planet has not been explored for more than 60 million years, hiding amazing resources."

"Countless rare and precious materials await us!"

"If I have the time, I must apply for an exploration slot, no matter how much money it costs, I'll go!"

The group began to discuss the matter without restraint.

This caused the people from Blue Star who were standing nearby to frown.

These words made them very uncomfortable, as if the trial planet was already theirs for the taking.

……

A few moments later, several hundred people arrived at the huge conference room at the headquarters of the Red Sky Martial Arts Hall.

Liu Yu, seated in the center, began to speak:
"We've already discussed the specifics in the meeting; we just need to follow the procedures."

"I can assure everyone on Earth that, as the Tulan Inspector can record, we guarantee to act in accordance with the laws of the human race in the universe."

"I won't break the rules, I won't kill innocent people indiscriminately, and if anything happens, you can come to me directly!"

"Our support team came here hoping to provide support in science and technology, martial arts, and the economy."

"I hope everyone can live in peace!"

The Crimson Emperor nodded and said, "We will do our best to cooperate."

The exquisitely handsome Tu Lan patrol envoy began, "Our patrol team will be stationed on Blue Star for 10 years to perform our supervisory duties."

Liu Yu continued speaking, while a panel popped up on his smart bracelet, projecting a large amount of information:

"The first thing we brought is a large amount of equipment and instruments, which are capable of mass-producing technological products and martial arts medicines!"

"A comprehensive overhaul of the factory will be a lengthy process..."

Then Liu Yu talked about a lot of support work, which would first be carried out in Xia Country, and then extended to the entire Blue Star.

It involves many aspects and is very complicated. Lin Qi was also listening, because his father, Lin Zhen, and uncle, Fang Zhe, were also going to do business with Liu Ren Civilization.

He also needs to pay close attention to their family's future business.

If the business goes well, Deep Space Coins will continuously flow into your pocket in the future.

He can focus on his cultivation and earn money without having to work hard.

The entire process lasted for several hours, and finally Liu Yu spoke:

"In addition to the above, there are also our deals with Earth."

"After initial discussions, Blue Star primarily uses the Merit Points currency system, which is obtained by defeating Calamity Beasts."

"Then we'll exchange them for technological products, cultivation resources, rare and precious materials, and equipment and weapons..."

"Unfortunately, our Flowblade civilization does not accept these; we only accept Deep Space Coins or barter."

"Specifically, it involves acquiring resources through Deep Space Coins, such as the corpses of calamity beasts, rare and precious materials, valuable metals, and high-tech products..."

"We've also brought a lot of resources this time, such as spatial bracelets, powerful cultivation potions, martial arts manuals, and so on!"

At this point, Liu Yu projected a list in front of everyone, which included pictures and text, detailing the effects and prices of each item.

There are tens of thousands of varieties, densely packed together.

Upon seeing the redemption list, many people on Blue Star immediately became excited.

"Space bracelet? There are actually space bracelets?"

"I've wanted a spatial bracelet for a long time!"

It's no wonder everyone was excited, because the space bracelet technology is too complex, and their planet Earth has yet to master it.

It can only be obtained in Ruins No. 9, and only the most outstanding geniuses who pass the test can obtain it.

Therefore, only a few people possess spatial bracelets.

Moreover, Lin Qi had already learned about the situation of the Flowing Blade Civilization in detail in "Detailed Explanation of the Lieyang Starfield Map".

The other side has been developing for 30000 years and has hundreds of life-bearing planets, and its development speed is very fast.

Their strength is far greater than that of their Blue Star.

They possess even more treasures, technological equipment, weapons, and potions.

Many civilizations are aware of the technological sophistication of the space bracelets, and with authorization, they can mass-produce and sell them.

Top-tier spatial bracelets, on the other hand, need to be purchased from major factions.

However, small-capacity fitness trackers are everywhere.

Lin Qi's gaze also fell on the list, which he automatically translated into Xia Guoyu (Chinese).

【Item: Space Bracelet (1 cubic meter of space)】

Price: 1000 Deep Space Coins

……

Item: Laser Gun

Price: 2000 Deep Space Coins

……

[Item: Orifice-Clearing Liquid]

Price: 10000 Deep Space Coins

……

Lin Qi's eyes lit up when he saw the acupoint-opening liquid; there was actually acupoint-opening liquid.

He was just about to buy it from the Crimson Emperor when he didn't expect that the Flowing Blade Civilization actually had it.

"It's more expensive than I expected, a whopping 10000 Deep Space Coins. Are the people from the Flowing Blade Civilization overcharging?"

Lin Qi thought to himself, and upon closer reflection, the price was a little cheaper than he had imagined.

After all, it can open up 4 to 5 acupoints at once, which can save a lot of cultivation time.

After that, besides the Qi-clearing liquid, he also looked at other treasures.

"This ancient blood vine is really expensive!" someone suddenly said.

Lin Qi's gaze immediately turned in that direction:

[Item: Ancient Blood Vine (one section)]

Price: 10000 Deep Space Coins

……

A single section of Ancient Blood Vine costs 10000 Deep Space Coins. Back then, the Crimson Emperor gave each of the 29 people a section of Ancient Blood Vine.

That's equivalent to 29 Deep Space Coins!

He had no doubt that the Crimson Emperor was truly wealthy. With the rare and precious materials he possessed, selling them to the Flowing Blade Civilization could potentially yield millions, or even tens of millions, of Deep Space Coins in an instant.

"So many treasures! A space bracelet with 1000 cubic meters of space actually costs 50000 Deep Space Coins!"

"There are actually six kinds of potions that can enhance the strength of the Sky Soaring Realm, but each one is really expensive, with the cheapest costing 60000 Deep Space Coins!"

"The expensive ones cost over 10 Deep Space Coins. How many Merit Points would that be?"

Just as everyone was discussing, Liu Yu spoke up:

"Please don't think the price is too high. You can check the official price in the virtual universe. Ours is only a little more expensive at most."

"Our transportation costs should also be factored in!"

"To put it bluntly, your Blue Star civilization's Milky Way galaxy is too remote. Transporting resources here would be very expensive."

"Only our Flowing Blade Civilization, due to our support relationship, can engage in large-scale trade with you."

Everyone fell silent. Liu Yu was right; the universe was too vast, and transportation was a serious issue.

Especially in such a remote place as their Blue Star.

Liu Yu continued, "Next, let's discuss how many Deep Space Coins are needed for martial artists of each realm in our Flowing Blade Civilization to enter the trial planet for exploration!"

Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up; this was a great opportunity to make money.

……

The meeting lasted from morning until evening without ending.

Lin Qi returned to the Black Dragon Base the next day, and the things discussed thereafter had little to do with him.

He just needs to wait for the final discussion results.

The third day arrived in the blink of an eye.

The virtual world of Blue Star, the Imperial Star Palace Conference.

In the spacious hall, all the ninth-realm martial artists had gathered, along with Lin Qi, Sun Sheng, and Li Tianxing.

"Everyone!"

The Crimson Emperor, seated at the very front, slowly spoke:

"After three days of consultations, the discussions with the Flowing Blade Civilization Support Group have been completed!"

"I made a deal with the Flowing Blade Civilization and received a large amount of Deep Space Coins. In the future, we will enable the exchange function between Merit Points and Deep Space Coins."

"As mentioned before, the exchange rate is 1:10000, one Deep Space Coin equals 10000 Merit Points!"

"Merit points earned from hunting calamity beasts will increase because the universe is handling calamity beasts better, and their value has been enhanced."

Upon hearing this, everyone present was delighted, for it was exactly as they had expected.

They have no shortage of merit points, but what they lack most is Deep Space Coins.

Previously, because the Crimson Emperor had too few Deep Space Coins, they could only exchange for a portion of them.

Exchanges are now permitted.

The Crimson Emperor continued speaking:

"At the same time, we updated the War House and added their exchange list to it."

"You can use Deep Space Coins to make purchases directly."

Lin Qi nodded. His next task was to use his merit points to exchange for Deep Space Coins and then use those coins to purchase resources.

This creates a positive cycle.

The Crimson Emperor continued speaking:

"It's too early to be happy!"

"In the next few decades, or even hundreds of years, our Blue Star civilization will undergo tremendous changes."

"With the addition of the Flowing Blade Civilization, the overall strength of our Blue Star Civilization will increase, more high-level martial artists will break through, and it will be easier to resist the invasion of the Calamity Beasts."

"Therefore, for ninth-level martial artists, each base can only keep 1 to 2 people, who will take turns at regular intervals."

"The rest of you also have time to enter the trial planet!"

"Now, people from the Flowing Blade Civilization can also enter the Trial Planet, and they possess greater strength, more powerful fighter jets, and more advanced detection systems!"

"Their ability to find rare and precious materials is stronger than ours."

"The rare and precious materials on the trial planet are limited. If you don't take them, they will be taken by the people of the Flowing Blade Civilization."

"I bought the 'Complete Collection of Natural Treasures' from the Lieyang Taoist Academy and learned about countless natural treasures!"

"They can be found on the trial planets, and some are incredibly valuable, enough to sell for tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or even millions of Deep Space Coins!"

As soon as the Crimson Emperor finished speaking, the entire conference room fell silent, and the sound of swallowing saliva could be heard.

The next second it became noisy.

"Yes, the Crimson Emperor is right!"

"Our target has never been the Calamity Beast. Even if we hunt a Level 9 Calamity Beast, it will only earn us a few million merit points, and at most ten million merit points, which is only a few thousand Deep Space Coins!"

"We might as well go explore the trial planet!"

"Finding top-tier rare and precious materials would be a huge windfall!"

"The trial planet originally belonged to our Blue Star, and we can't let the Flowing Blade Civilization benefit from it."
