Swallowing the Stars Starts with the Brewing Master

Chapter 233 I never expected you actually had...

Zhu Yue Star Region.

"That news is true!"

"On the human side, a battle video of that human [Xuanming] has already been leaked. A King-level expert recognized that the human's treasure is called the [Jingjie Blade]!"

Two powerful immortal kings from the Thousand-Eyed Heart Clan sat facing each other. The slightly taller of the two kings revealed a hint of solemnity in the largest golden eye on his head.

The Thousand-Eyed Heart Clan is a very powerful race in the universe. Their members are typically about two meters tall and one meter wide, covered in scales, many of which have eyes on them.

Especially the largest golden eye on its head, with its powerful aura, is an important support for the Thousand-Eyed Heart Clan to activate their innate secret techniques.

This powerful race, though never a vassal, still needs to join one of the four major factions to gain access to the extraterritorial battlefield.

True super-strong individuals not only do not fear battle, but will also actively go to battlefields outside the realm to hone and strengthen themselves.

Battle is the best way to hone the strong.

"Is there really a great treasure?" The slightly shorter King of the Thousand-Eyed Heart Clan was greatly surprised, his body covered in countless eyes that kept turning around.

"Yes. Currently, many powerful alien races within the Zhuyue Starfield are using various methods to continuously investigate information about that human [Xuanming], but so far they have found nothing."

The tall, thousand-eyed man of the Heart Clan opened and closed his golden eyes, his voice hoarse as he spoke.

"Once that human is found, I'm afraid... many other races will get involved, and war will break out!"

"Ted," the slightly shorter King of the Thousand-Eyed Heart Clan grinned, "Are you going or not?"

"Haha, look at the video that's been circulating. This human is weak and relies entirely on the power of the treasure!" The King of the Thousand-Eyed Heart Clan, Gao Dayan, was all smiles.

“How could a mere child who has just been crowned a king be qualified to possess such a precious treasure? Of course I’ll go.”

"If we join forces, we'll split all the treasures, including the most valuable ones, equally!"

"it is good!"

Two immortal kings of the Thousand-Eyed Heart Clan formed an alliance here.

……

The entire Zhuyue Starfield was suddenly filled with a sense of unease and panic.

Many of the teams, whose highest rank was no more than a Marquis, and some even led teams of Immortal Army Lords, quickly withdrew from the area.

They knew very well that such a treasure was not something they could get their hands on.

Unlike those who were granted titles of nobility.

For hundreds of thousands of years, the powerful kings in the entire Zhuyue Starfield have been quite leisurely, and there have been very few battles between kings, let alone a life-or-death struggle.

The event of "Human Xuanming possesses a powerful treasure" has suddenly made the Zhuyue Star Region a hot topic!
The alien kings all began to search frantically for the human Xuanming's whereabouts, but strangely, they couldn't find him no matter how hard they looked!
……

On the fifth battlefield, inside the No. 065 barracks base, on the warm sandy beach covered with silver grains.

"Oh? People from Virtual Universe Company have arrived." Black armor appeared on Chu He's body as he broke through the water and flew towards the warm, silvery beach.

"Hello, I am an employee of Virtual Universe Company." The three-eyed man at the head of the group was dressed in a golden robe, and his tone was humble and elegant.

Before he came, his department head repeatedly warned him not to ask any random questions after meeting the client!

In particular, they explicitly stated that the client's identity was confidential!
Their department head, a powerful figure at the level of a cosmic venerable, can already be considered a high-ranking member of the company!
Given his status, he personally intervened and repeatedly warned him not to ask any questions...

How could the three-eyed man in the golden robe not guess that this matter and this person must involve the highest levels of the Virtual Universe Company?

The three-eyed man in the golden robe knew very well just how astonishing this deal was.

Inside that small silver briefcase were goods worth over two hundred billion Chaos Units!
Therefore, despite the fact that the three-eyed man in the golden robe was an immortal, he had no other thoughts at the moment and only wanted to complete the transaction and leave as soon as possible.

He handed over the silver briefcase and said respectfully, "These are the things you purchased."

"Hmm." Chu He nodded, using his mental energy to probe deep within.

That's right!

Everything he wanted was there.

"The payment is settled." The three-eyed man in the golden robe smiled at Chu He. "Then I won't disturb you any longer."

The scene of Bingjing Chuhe, clad in black armor, standing on the snow and talking to the delivery personnel of the Virtual Universe Company, unsurprisingly caught the eyes of the other two Kings in the distance.

"Look, it's that [Xuanming]."

"Hey! It really is him!"

"Tsk tsk tsk, those alien powerhouses from other factions in the Zhuyue Starfield have been searching for him like crazy. Who would have thought that Xuanming would actually spend money at the military base, hahaha..."

"Do you think... Xuanming will be able to protect that precious treasure in the end?"

The two powerful alien kings looked across the vast lake and spotted Chu He and the staff of the Virtual Universe Company on the silver beach.

With their eyesight, they could see the finest hairs on a person's face even at a distance of only a few hundred kilometers.

The two watched this scene and talked to each other.

"I've seen those leaked videos myself, and judging from the battle scenes in those videos, it looks unlikely!"

"So, Xuanming is quite clever. Knowing his own weakness, he simply hides in the military base. Even if the alien races from other factions know that Xuanming is in the military base, they can't do anything about it."

"Let alone the alien races, I've wanted to take action myself. Unfortunately, they're hiding in their military base, so there's nothing I can do."

"Yeah, I can't do anything about it. Who would dare to make a move against someone from the same camp?"

"But I dare say that if it weren't for the military system, even within the human community, there would probably be powerful individuals who would target Xuanming!"

"Anyway, he'll get out sooner or later; he can't hide forever!"

……

Xuanming is at the Human Camp Base No. 065!

The news spread quickly.

Upon learning this, the greedy alien powerhouses within the Zhuyue Starfield were filled with curses.

"Coward!"

"Cowardly rodents!"

"Over a hundred years! This human has been hiding in the military base all this time, bastard!"

Curses and curses rose and fell.

However, within the Zhuyue Starfield, the Biyou King, who was most concerned about this matter, looked furious.

On the Azure Star, which is entirely emerald green and faintly exudes a green mist, there is an ancient temple.

"Humans are really cautious, hiding in military bases!"

The puppet body of the Azure King sat on the throne in the temple, its eyes flashing with a cold, eerie light.

"However, I really didn't expect that human actually possessed a great treasure!"

"Hmph!" King Biyou snorted coldly, his anger growing, but also his composure becoming more intense.

"To be honest, he should have already guessed that I was the one who leaked the information to pressure him... Given his strength at the time, he shouldn't have reacted this way..."

"Moreover, that video... was probably released by him on purpose!"

"It seems this human, Xuanming, has quite the ambition..."

“I want to kill him and seize the treasure, and he also wants to kill me to eliminate future troubles and to intimidate all the kings... If he has this idea, he must be somewhat confident.”

"Humanity……"

King Biyou was actually quite wary of Chuhe.

During their initial battle, Chu He's impenetrable defense and his incredibly fast speed, which even allowed him to teleport, instilled fear in King Biyou.

Moreover, we now know that the human also possesses a powerful offensive weapon, the Shocking Calamity Blade! Clearly, during the battle, the human not only didn't unleash their divine power, but didn't even activate the full potential of their treasure…

All of this reveals humanity's immense self-confidence, and the terrifying strength that matches that confidence.

"No! I can't sit still and wait for death!"

“Right now, I still have quite a few assets, which I originally planned to use to buy a resurrection spot for my younger brother, but now…” King Biyou murmured, “I must go back and make some preparations!”

"These humans are hiding in the military base right now, they must be plotting something. If they don't explode, all is well, but if they do, it will definitely be crazy."

"go!"

Before the next day even arrived, the Azure Star was abandoned.

The entire Biyou squad returned to the demon race's military base.

……

In a white jade wine pot.

Bingjing Chuhe sat cross-legged, his expression solemn, looking at the wine bottle carved from deep purple black jade in front of him.

"Poisoned wine [Purple Smoke Cold]..." Bingjing Chuhe murmured.

The bottle of poisoned wine before us was the result of a hundred and twenty years of research by Afu based on the [Red Silk Calamity].

One hundred and twenty years, which is a full 1200 years at the usual time flow rate of the white jade wine pot!
In order to develop a poison that could affect the immortal divine body of a king, Chu He spent a full 300 billion mixed units to purchase a bottle of [Feimo Venom] for reference.

Femo Venom, worth 300 million Mixed Yuan Units per gram, is a terrifying potion concocted by "Femo," a powerful apothecary among the human race.

One tube contains 100 grams and is worth 300 billion Mixed Yuan Units.

Femoro venom is purple and flows slowly like mercury. When placed in a reagent bottle, it looks like a purple crystal.

As stated in the description, Fimo Venom has strong corrosive properties.

This potion was originally formulated specifically to erode the immortal divine body.

Normally, only 10 grams of venom is needed to corrode and kill a peak-level King-level expert.

One vial of Femoro Venom contains a full 100 grams, enough to kill even a [King of Limits] or [King of Invincibility]!
Afu spent a thousand years studying Femore Venom through the white jade wine pot before finally deciphering its most important raw material—azure ice sand.

Subsequently, the World Tree's [Spirit Realm] talent was used to specially cultivate the spiritual energy of the [Netherflame Grass], the raw material for [Crimson Silk Calamity], and only then was it successfully cultivated into [Netherflame Grass] that reached the immortal level.

As for the other two ingredients used to create the "Red Silk Calamity," "Flowing Flame Calamity Flower" and "Ochre Magnetite Mother," they were excluded by Afu from the beginning because they were incompatible with "Amethyst Ice Sand."

Finally, using [Netherflame Grass] and [Amethyst Ice Sand] as raw materials, and spending another two hundred years in a white jade wine pot, this pot of [Purple Smoke Cold] was finally brewed.

"Master, be careful!"

"Although 【Purple Smoke Cold】is a poisonous wine, it is actually a kind of smoke. If you get even a little bit of it, this ice crystal golem clone will be finished!"

"However, with me, Afu, inside the white jade wine pot, Master, you don't need to worry about [Purple Smoke Cold] spreading!"

"Hmm." Bingjing Chuhe took a deep breath.

That's why he didn't dare to deal with [Purple Smoke Cold] in his inner world, but instead had to process it in the white jade wine pot.

"Boom!"

Chu He gently opened the spout of the [Purple Smoke Cold] pot.

Inside the wine bottle, carved from deep purple jade, a wisp of purple smoke remained still.

A thin film formed by a point of seven-colored light is covering the mouth of the bottle to prevent purple smoke from escaping.

Chu He leaned slightly forward and looked into the bottle.

The purple smoke, like broken iris petals burning in the dark night, floated with a dim violet phosphorescence.

"How does it compare to Firmor Venom?" Chu He asked Afu as he put the stopper on the bottle.

"Don't worry, sir! Afu's product is definitely better than that Femore Venom!" Afu patted his chest and began to slowly introduce it to Chu He.

First of all, [Purple Smoke Cold] is a disposable item; the purple smoke diminishes with each use.

Secondly, this purple smoke can only take effect after it comes into contact with the immortal divine body!

However, since immortals generally no longer breathe, it is necessary to attach [Purple Smoke Frost] to the weapon and then use the weapon to attack.

Fortunately, the purple smoke of [Purple Smoke Cold] adheres to the surface of weapons more easily than ordinary liquids.

Moreover, even in intense battles, at most [Purple Smoke Frost] will be transformed back into purple smoke, and will eventually still attach to the weapon it was originally attached to.

The main reason is that when [Purple Smoke Cold] first adheres to the surface of an object, it will exude a gel-like substance similar to the juice of black datura, with its edges shimmering with a cold, purplish light like ice crystals.

This highly poisonous layer, after the weapon cuts through the opponent's divine body, will cling to the enemy's divine body like a maggot, constantly damaging and frantically eroding and annihilating the enemy's divine body.

Even if the enemy abandons some of their immortal divine power at the first moment, expelling it from their body along with the purple smoke, the purple smoke will still exert its terrifying clinging ability and return to the enemy's wound.

The only way to deal with [Purple Smoke Frost] is to continuously wear down the purple smoke with divine power.

Therefore, even a small amount is enough to ensure that [Purple Smoke Cold] can exert its full effect.

It can be said that its efficiency far exceeds that of Fermoo Venom.

"Not bad, not bad!" Bingjing Chuhe nodded in satisfaction.

While this effect isn't as good as a weapon like the [Kaso Dagger] that can be used permanently, and it's still a consumable, it's more than enough for Chu He.

Bingjing Chuhe flipped his hand and took out a battle sword.

This is a newly customized battle sword based on the shape of the Jingjie Blade.

The raw materials are naturally G-grade metals.

Grade G metals are much more expensive than Grade F metals.

Normally, the weapons used by powerful kings are almost all made of G-grade metal.

Of course, those weapons have corresponding laws and secret patterns on them.

Chuhe's newly crafted weapon is at best a blank board made of G-grade metal.

A single, unadorned battle sword cost Chu He nearly one hundred million Chaos Units.

Even though [Purple Smoke Frost] has very weak corrosive properties to metals, Chu He didn't want to coat his precious battle sword with it.

"With Afu here, it's just a simple application, nothing should go wrong." Bingjing Chuhe carefully began to imbue the battle blade with the power of [Purple Smoke Frost].

Protected by a seven-colored light shield throughout, every wisp of purple smoke seemed to have a life of its own, slithering and leaving behind a spiderweb-like trail of ice crystals wherever it went.

Finally, fine, dark purple frost patterns condensed on the battle blade.

A moment later, Chu He held the frost-patterned battle blade in his hand, looking at the faint purple light on the blade, and couldn't help but smile:

"I usually use the Shocking Blade, but I'll switch to this Frost-Patterned Battle Blade in the crucial moment, hahaha..."

"We can try to recruit Immortal Servants who have been granted the title of King!"

Back in the outside world, Bingjing Chuhe touched the long black horn on her head, her eyes shining brightly.

We immediately sent a public bounty through the military system to all allies in the same faction throughout the Zhuyue Starfield war zone!

For a public reward to be offered, the reward money must be transferred to a public account within the military system in advance.

Once someone completes the task and passes the military system's verification, the reward will be directly deposited into the person's account.

5000 million Hunyuan units!
I'll only buy the coordinates of the Azure King!
"Ha, King Biyou!"

"And those alien races that are secretly coveting..."

"This time, all of you come at me together!"
