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

Chapter 866 Preparing for a Breakthrough (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

A few days later

Beyond the azure ocean outside the Dragon Ruins Secret Realm.

In the boundless starry sky, a tall, domineering figure dressed in purple sat cross-legged in the universe, quietly waiting.

At one point, Horton opened his eyes.

He looked at the entrance to the secret realm with a worried expression.

"It's been three days, why is there still no movement?"

"We can't rush things. The Dragon Ruins Secret Realm is so vast that it may take several months to get results."

"I think it's best to wait patiently."

"I am a being of the fifth realm of the universe, I cannot lose my composure because of this."

"boom!!"

Just as Horton was adjusting his mindset, a black triangular spaceship suddenly burst out of the azure ocean.

His eyes widened immediately, because he recognized it at a glance as his junior brother's Taixing spaceship.

"what happened?"

"Coming out so soon?"

The spaceship quickly came to a stop in front of him.

"Buzz!!"

The cabin door opened, and a familiar figure appeared before Horton.

"Junior brother, why did you suddenly come out!"

"But I'm relieved to see you're back safe and sound."

"By the way, Ronan...?"

After feeling relieved, the second senior brother, Horton, asked the question that had been bothering him.

He saw that Lin Qi was in very good condition, completely unlike someone who had gone through a tough battle.

This puzzled him greatly, leading him to suspect that the other party might not have encountered Ronan.

Lin Qi smiled and said:
"Ronan is dead, of course!"

“I told you, I have my own ways of dealing with him.”

As soon as he finished speaking, a piece of metal fragment appeared in his hand, with special markings on it.

Horton recognized it; it was the insignia from the Starsword spaceship.

He was shocked and couldn't help but speak:

"You actually killed Ronan?"

Horton felt he had learned something new; Lynch had actually managed to defeat Ronan, a seventh-level player at the fourth level of the Universe Realm, despite being from a different realm.

The other party is no ordinary cat or dog; they are completely different from ordinary beings in the four realms of the universe.

Lynch managed to win.

"It seems my junior brother has his own trump card."

"As expected of someone who has cultivated for over four hundred years and yet still managed to secure first place in the qualifying battle."

Second Senior Brother Horton sighed inwardly.

Although I was shocked, I quickly accepted the result.

Throughout the entire human race, many geniuses possess their own opportunities and trump cards.

All your trump cards are meant to be used at crucial moments.

He then spoke:

"It seems you've completed the mission as well."

Lin Qi nodded and said, "Of course it's done."

"Now we're preparing to go back."

Second Senior Brother Horton nodded and also entered the Taixing spaceship.

"Buzz!!"

"call out!"

After the cabin door closed, it quickly started up and flew rapidly into the distance, disappearing from the spot in an instant.

Outside the secret realm, in a palace-like base, in a luxurious martial arts room.

A towering man sat cross-legged, exuding an immense aura.

He opened his eyes and smiled, saying:
"Lin Qi actually got out safely. It seems that the assassination attempt by the Heavenly Mang King failed."

"This Lin Qi is indeed no ordinary being. He resolved the situation himself without needing any intervention from beings at the fifth level of the universe."

"I don't even have a chance to make a move anymore."

"I was originally thinking of befriending them."

"It's because the Heavenly King is too weak."

“Once Lin Qi breaks through, he probably won’t come to the Dragon Ruins Secret Realm again. I’ll be stationed here and won’t be able to leave.”

"It seems we're not meant to be."

After muttering to himself for a while, he logged into the Primordial World and went to drink with his old friends.

……

On the other side, in the Taixing ship.

Lynch and his second senior brother, Horton, sat at a spacious table, enjoying a meal made from dragon meat.

After eating several kilograms, Lin Qi felt that the taste was very good and that he could save it for future consumption.

At the same time, I felt waves of warmth flowing into my body, becoming part of my body's foundation.

Once I break through to the fourth realm of the universe, my physical strength will be greatly enhanced.

He asked:
"Second Senior Brother, now that I've killed Ronan, will it be discovered?"

Second Senior Brother Horton said nonchalantly:
"Don't worry, it's unlikely to be discovered. Even if they know you did it, they'll have to provide evidence."

"For example, videos or the like."

"But this thing would be extremely useful in space."

"However, the signal of the cosmic virtual network will also be severely affected in various secret realms."

"If you use a spaceship to block the signal, it will be extremely difficult to obtain the video, and it will be impossible to upload it."

"Moreover, secret realms are also the default places to settle personal grudges."

"Many people who have grudges will choose to enter the secret realm to hunt down their opponents."

“In our Primordial Holy Land, throughout history, there have been countless people who have died in the secret realm.”

"It doesn't matter even if we get caught in the end."

"You are a core member, so even if you are found out, it won't have a big impact. As long as it's not a major crime like betraying humanity or slaughtering life on the planet, it will basically just be a minor punishment."

After hearing this, Lin Qi sighed inwardly, "This is the advantage of having a high status."

There is basically no danger to life.

However, it is easy to dodge a spear in the open, but difficult to guard against an arrow in the dark. Within the human race's territory, he was not in great danger.

But things are different once you enter the secret realm.

In the future, those who hunt you may become even more powerful.

He still needs greater strength.

Especially the Heavenly Eye, which is his trump card; the longer it accumulates power, the stronger it becomes.

When used again next time, it will probably be able to annihilate even beings at the fifth level of the universe.

Now is the perfect time; once he gets back, he should prepare for his breakthrough.

……

One month later

In the port of the Primordial Holy Land, a black triangular spaceship passed through the Holy Land's gates and entered the Holy Land.

We traversed the outer areas and finally arrived at the core area.

In the training ground of Tianhai Residence.

The Taixing spacecraft landed.
"Buzz!"

The hatch opened, and two figures stepped out.

The second senior brother, Horton, clad in purple armor, spoke up with instructions:

"Lin Qi, this mission has been successfully completed."

"Next, you should also prepare to break through to the fourth realm of the universe."

"I have already told you some of the key points."

"The next step is to spend a lot of time preparing for the breakthrough."

"I look forward to seeing you again when you have already broken through to the fourth realm of the universe."

Lin Qi nodded and said, "Yes."

After Horton finished speaking, he transformed into a purple streak of light and soared into the sky, returning to his residence.

Lin Qi then contacted his teacher, Lei Zunxingyu.

A large screen was projected in front of him, and Lei Zun appeared opposite him, smiling as he said:
"Lynch, Horton has already reported to me."

"Well done."

"The Heavenly King has lost a disciple this time. That penniless wretch simply cannot afford the cost of resurrection."

"We think he's going to be furious this time."

Lin Qi also smiled and said:

"This is just the beginning."

"My feud with King Tianmang may last for a long time."

Lei Zun Xing Yu scoffed after hearing this:
"The Heavenly King is nothing but a piece of trash; he's just an ordinary titled being."

"I have offended many titled beings, including some invincible ones."

"They were helpless against me."

"And Lynch, you'd better watch out for the future."

"Some of my enemies are helpless against me, but they will definitely make a move against you."

Lin Qi calmly said, "Let them come!"

"there is always a solution to a problem."

Upon hearing this, Lei Zun immediately smiled with satisfaction and said:

"We'll talk about that later. What you need to do now is break through to the fourth realm of the universe."

"A breakthrough to a higher realm can bring about earth-shattering changes in you."

"The ability to survive can also be further enhanced."

Lin Qi nodded and said, "That's exactly what I was thinking."

A moment later, the large screen in front of us disappeared.

"call!"

Lin Qi let out a breath and began to organize his thoughts.

"Star Spirits!"

He summoned the Celestial Spirit directly, and after the Celestial Spirit, dressed in magnificent golden robes, appeared, he spoke:

“Protoss, I need to submit a mission and sell a batch of resources.”

He was preparing to break through to the fourth realm of the universe, but before that, he had to take stock of his spoils and sell them to the Protoss.

The Protoss opened his mouth and smiled:

"Member Lynch, your mission is a Level 3 difficulty mission to go to the Dragon Ruins Secret Realm and kill 1000 Cosmic Realm Three Dragonmen."

“We need their corpses as evidence.” Lin Qi nodded, and then took out a large number of dragon-man corpses from his spatial bracelet. There were more than 1000 dragon-man corpses from the third realm of the universe.

The Protoss quickly scanned the area and then spoke:

"After testing, a total of 1580 corpses of dragon people from the three realms of the universe were found."

"1000 of the corpses will be collected as mission credentials, and you will receive 100 million cultivation points. I can give you 100 cultivation points for the remaining 580 corpses."

Lin Qi shook his head. This money was too little. It would be better to let Xiaotian devour it directly; at least it would be able to improve his cultivation level.

Then the Protoss continued:

"Lynch member, have you hunted down any of the four realms of the universe's dragon people?"

"If the number reaches 300, a hidden requirement will be triggered."

Lin Qi was secretly pleased after hearing this, not expecting there to be a hidden requirement.

However, this is indeed very difficult.

It's not difficult for someone in the third realm of the universe to kill a dragon-man in the fourth realm, but being surrounded and attacked is very dangerous.

Even a genius of his caliber is in great danger when surrounded and attacked.

Hunting down 100 beings at the fourth level of the universe would take quite some time.

So he took out a large number of corpses of the four realms of the universe from his spatial bracelet.

More than 100 bodies were intact, but there were also a large number of body parts that could not be pieced together to form a complete body.

The surface still retained the power of violent lightning.

Because the divine light of thunder was so intense, it was difficult to leave behind an intact corpse.

He collected as many body parts as possible, thinking they might be useful.

Even if it's useless, it can still be devoured by Xiaotian.

Now it really comes in handy.

"drop!"

After scanning, the Protoss smiled and said:
"After testing, there are 302 corpses of dragon people from the fourth realm of the universe. You have successfully completed the hidden requirements and can obtain 400 million cultivation points."

"Adding 100 million cultivation points, the total is 500 million cultivation points."

Lin Qi was overjoyed; he had already recouped half of his investment.

Then he took out a large box, which was filled to the brim with dragon blood crystals.

The Protoss also quickly scanned and obtained the results:

"10050 Dragon Blood Crystals, at 1000 cultivation points per crystal, for a total of 1050 million cultivation points."

Lin Qi nodded after hearing this. Sure enough, they still had to go to the super-large tribe, where the amount of dragon blood crystals was indeed greater.

In particular, most of the dragon blood crystals that fall from the bodies of the peak fourth realm of the universe are from the dragon people, and the amount of dragon blood crystals accumulated is astonishing.

The dragon blood crystals he collected were enough to break even.

Everything else is profit.

Then Lin Qi added, "I also have some rare and precious materials that I need to sell to the Holy Land."

After saying that, he released everything all at once.

On the way back, he took stock of the items and kept some for himself.

The rest are all planned to be sold, with the majority being various rare and precious medicinal materials.

In a short time, the training ground was piled up with debris, especially the fragments of the Star Sword spaceship, which were piled up like garbage into a small mountain.

Xingling scanned each one with great sincerity, and at the same time, a screen appeared, displaying various names and their corresponding cultivation points, all clearly marked on it.

Some of them are practically worthless; they might only fetch 0.01 cultivation points per piece.

However, with a large quantity, even small amounts can accumulate and sell for a considerable number of cultivation points.

Soon after Solan arrived, the Protoss finished taking inventory of all the items.

Solan, with his green hair, was completely shocked by the sight of the numerous corpses and rare treasures scattered across the training ground.

"These are all beings at the fourth level of the universe. There are just too many of them!"

Solan sensed the aura emanating from the corpse, and was completely stunned.

If he were to face Lin Qi now, he would likely be instantly defeated.

The gap is really too big.

And only a few hundred years have passed.

Meanwhile, Lin Qi was unaware of Solan's thoughts. He simply greeted him and listened to the Protoss report the final results.

The other party then projected a large screen and spoke:

"Linqi member, according to the analysis, the rare and precious materials, metals, weapons, and medicines you are selling..."

"Worth 991 million cultivation points, plus the Dragon Blood Crystal you completed."

"A total of 2541 million cultivation points were accumulated in the end."

Lin Qi smiled immediately upon hearing this.

The original loss of 1000 million cultivation points was not only recovered, but an additional 1500 cultivation points were also gained.

It was definitely worth it.

"drop!"

Lin Qi looked at his account, which showed nearly 4500 million cultivation points.

This amount of money is truly staggering.

I've never had so much money before; I've had four opportunities to observe the Chaos Wonders.

Unfortunately, he still needs to spend the cultivation points he earned this time.

And the Protoss spoke up:

"Member Lin Qi, you are already at the peak of the third realm of the universe. If you want to break through to the fourth realm of the universe, I suggest you buy Starry Sky Liquid."

"Starry Sky Liquid is a top-tier natural treasure. During the breakthrough process, it can stabilize the source core world and accelerate its evolution."

"Significantly shorten the time required for a breakthrough."

Lin Qi nodded and said, "That's exactly what I was thinking too."

On the way back, my second senior brother, Horton, mentioned this matter.

Breaking through to a higher level requires a considerable amount of time.

In particular, it absorbs and converts source energy.

It took him a full 10 years to break through to the third realm of the universe.

This was thanks to the help of a top-grade boundary stone.

And now it's another breakthrough to a higher realm, although it's in the core area, it still takes quite a while.

Even if it takes hundreds of years, that might be normal.

He opened the software of the Primordial Holy Land and started searching for World Crystals, and soon got the results.

【Item: Starry Sky Liquid】

[Description: A liquid born in the Star Abyss Secret Realm, possessing incredible power, capable of stabilizing the Source Core World and assisting it in evolving into a material world...]

[Price: 1000 million cultivation points]

……

When Lin Qi saw the price, he gasped. It was really expensive.

It could be said to be the most expensive cultivation resource he had ever bought.

It's already comparable in price to the Taixing spaceship.

Actually, there are other rare and precious materials that can shorten cultivation time, but Starry Sky Liquid is the best.

Now that Lynch has money, he naturally has to buy the best.

Shortening the time to break through would be ideal, and it would be worthwhile for him.

So he placed the order immediately.

The Protoss also spoke up with a laugh:
"Member Lynch, the Starry Sky Liquid you purchased is expensive and will take a week to be delivered to your door in the shortest possible time."

Lin Qi said nonchalantly, "It's nothing."

The Protoss nodded, instructing Solan to pack everything up and submit it to the Holy Land's treasury, while also preparing to deliver the Starry Night Liquid to their doorstep.

After they all left.

Lin Qi also planned to adjust his condition and inform the people in the outer area.

Let's invite them all to Tianhaiju for a proper get-together.

I also need to meet with my parents.

This breakthrough will take a long time, perhaps decades, so we need to prepare in advance.

……

A few days passed quickly.

In the heart of the area, there is a luxurious waterfront estate.

King Tianmang, dressed in a magnificent blue robe, looked solemn. On the large screen in front of him, Kate appeared, her face grim. He said:
"Father, Lin Qi is back!"

"As for Senior Brother Ronan, he has disappeared without a trace. I'm afraid something has happened to him."

Upon hearing this, the Heavenly King's face turned ashen, and he said:

"Go to the Dragon Ruins Secret Realm and find Ronan. He might still be inside."

"Lin Qi might have escaped back."

"I don't believe Lynch can kill Ronan; he doesn't have that ability."

Kate nodded and said, "I'll leave now."

After the screen turned off, King Tianmang clenched his fist, and waves of vast power emerged from his body, enveloping the entire manor.

He gritted his teeth and said:

"Lin Qi is really lucky; he managed to escape."

"It would be too difficult for me to kill Lin Qi by myself."

"Looks like I'll have to team up with someone."

……

A few days passed in the blink of an eye.

Tianhaiju, now that the banquet was over.

At the main entrance, Lin Xiao looked at Lin Qi and said:
"Brother, keep going! We're waiting for you to break through to the fifth realm of the universe."

“Once you and Brother Qin both break through to the fourth realm of the universe, our Blue Star civilization will also have the strength of a mid-level civilization.”

Lin Qi laughed after hearing this:
"Will do!"

Finally, Qinling spoke:

"I didn't expect you to be faster than me."

"I just got back from a mission."

“Now, Pan Wei, Tu Pa, Yao Tong and the others have already entered into closed-door cultivation to break through.”

"Now it's our turn."

Lin Qi nodded and said, "Now that everything is ready, it's time to break through."

"Once we break through, the strength of the Blue Star civilization will become even greater."

"Just as Lin Xiao said, our Blue Star is also about to become an intermediate civilization."

Qin Ling nodded and said, "Then let's meet again when we break through to the fourth realm of the universe!"

"Let's celebrate properly again."

Lin Qi nodded after hearing this.
