I created an extraordinary era

Chapter 700: The Voyage Begins, the Largest Interstellar Development in History

"Time-limited mission?"

Upon seeing this sudden mission, Qi Hui was momentarily stunned and didn't react.

Although the rules mentioned time-limited tasks before, the Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Path had been open for seven months and had never been triggered, to the point that many people had almost forgotten about this mechanism.

Unexpectedly, the first target was not a demonic beast, but a trial participant!
"Zhao Kun, at the fourth level of the Transcendent Realm, eliminated 37 people, of whom 35 were killed."

"Of the 37 people who were eliminated, 31 were at the Innate Realm, and the remaining 6 were at most at the Second Stage of Transcendent Realm."

After reading the person's detailed information, Qi Hui couldn't help but frown.

Zhao Kun not only specifically targets the easy targets, but he also targets an extremely large number of them.

Keep in mind that only three hundred people have been eliminated so far, and Zhao Kun alone has eliminated one-tenth of them.
Most importantly, almost all of those he eliminated met their end in death.

It's no wonder that the Human Alliance issued a hunting mission for such behavior.

"However, this mission only lasts for a month. Once Zhao Kun goes into hiding, it won't be easy to find him."

"Moreover, with his strength at the fourth level of the Transcendent Realm, there are probably no more than five hundred people in the entire outer region who are confident in killing him."

In Qi Hui's view, this time-limited task is extremely difficult.

As long as Zhao Kun is careful, he will most likely be able to get through this month-long mission period.

"Never mind, it's none of my business."

After a moment, Qi Hui shook his head.

With his current strength, encountering his opponent would only lead to certain death.

Let alone the difference between the innate and the fourth level of the Transcendent Realm, there is a huge gap even between the third and fourth levels of the Transcendent Realm.

Under normal circumstances, the maximum strength of a third-stage Transcendent Realm cultivator is around 6,000 kilograms, but a fourth-stage Transcendent Realm cultivator can easily reach 10,000 kilograms.

The difference is almost double.

Unless one's use of power surpasses that of the opponent, it is difficult to bridge such a gap.

But who among those who can enter the Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Path isn't a genius?
A transcendent being at the fourth level of the Transcendent Realm has at least reached the mid-stage of Dark Force, and may even be at the late-stage of Dark Force.

In this situation, it's practically impossible to kill someone of a higher level.

Of course, if one can master extraordinary martial arts, or possess a second-tier refined weapon, or even a third-tier Qi and Blood Treasure, one will be even more fortunate.

That’s a different story!
Qi Hui has a clear understanding of his own abilities.

Although he possesses a second-tier refined sword that can enhance his abilities by 30%, at best he can only contend with a second-tier Transcendent Sword.

It must be the second stage of the Transcendent Realm whose martial arts realm has not reached the mid-stage of Dark Force.

Once he reaches the mid-stage of the Transcendent Realm, he will be no match for him, even with weapons.

As for encountering someone at the third stage of the Transcendent Realm, they basically have no choice but to run for their lives.

If he were to encounter a Transcendent Third Stage cultivator with exceptional agility or who had mastered the essence of wind, he would have difficulty even escaping.

"I'll awaken first. Once I'm stronger, I can deal with Zhao Kun when I run into him again!"

If he had the ability, Qi Hui wouldn't hesitate to kill such a person.

As soon as he finished speaking, Qi Hui sped towards the safe zone.

……

Almost at the same time.

More than two thousand trial participants in the outer area also received this task at the same time.

"Zhao Kun, fourth stage of the Mortal Transformation Realm?"

Flaming Mountain.

Ding Yan, who was cultivating, suddenly focused his gaze.

Although he knew that the Heavenly Road had become increasingly chaotic recently, he never expected that someone would specifically hunt down low-level superhumans.

And the quantity is so exaggerated.

"A month should be enough time to go and look for it!"

Ding Yan was utterly disgusted by the behavior of people like Zhao Kun.

Even without the nearly 5,000 points reward, he wouldn't let the other party go if he encountered them.

In the safe zone.

Carson had just finished exchanging for cultivation resources and was about to leave when he saw this unexpected limited-time mission.

"Hunting trial participants?"

He raised an eyebrow and read the details with great interest.

"More than four thousand points is quite a sum."

"I've just run out of points, so I'll look for it while I'm hunting monsters."

And with the release of this mission.

In an instant, the entire area surrounding Wanxiang Tianlu was in turmoil.

After all, this is a task worth nearly 5,000 points.

Once completed, the score will instantly jump into the top three, which is a huge temptation for everyone.

Especially for those at the fifth or sixth level of the Transcendent Realm who haven't earned any points yet, Zhao Kun is like a giant cake emitting an enticing aroma.

……

"How could this be?"

Inside a cave in the western region.

Zhao Kun's face was so gloomy it could drip water, as he looked at the time-limited mission that suddenly appeared on the Heavenly Road Certificate.

He never expected that the Human Alliance would directly issue a hunting mission against him, and even offer a bounty of more than four thousand points!
"Over four thousand points is quite a generous gesture!"

Zhao Kun gritted his teeth, a hint of panic flashing in his eyes.

After all, his strength was only at the fourth level of the Transcendent Realm, which was not considered strong in this outer region.

Most importantly, he cannot choose to abstain during this month, and he cannot stay in the safe zone for more than one day.

In other words, if he encounters someone at the fifth or sixth level of the Transcendent Realm, he will almost certainly die.

Even if you manage to get through this month, you must be extremely careful in the days to come.

Otherwise, once their whereabouts are exposed, there is still a high chance they will be hunted down by others.

"If I want to survive, I have to get through this month first."

"As for what happens a month from now, you can either choose to give up and leave the Heavenly Road, or continue to seize other people's resources to speed up your cultivation."

"Once my strength reaches the sixth level of the Transcendent Realm, the situation will be completely different!"

At the sixth level of the Transcendent Realm, it is already considered top-tier in the outer region.

Even if his whereabouts are exposed, very few people will dare to hunt him down.

Zhao Kun quickly calmed down and began to carefully plan his next move.

If he could, he naturally wouldn't want to leave the Myriad Heavenly Road.

During this period, although he did not gain many points, he acquired a considerable amount of resources.

If you really calculate it, it will definitely not be less than five thousand.

This is because many people haven't redeemed their points for resources.

Otherwise, he would only gain more resources.

Despite this, the points he gained in just three months were more than he had in the outside world in three years.

Not to mention there are various secret realms that can accelerate cultivation.

With sufficient resources, the cultivation efficiency here is several times that of the outside world.

We must hold on!

A ruthless glint flashed in Zhao Kun's eyes.

"As long as I break through to the sixth level of the Transcendent Realm, I can completely turn the tide!"

"But we need to find a place to hide for the next month."

He could imagine how many people were searching for him on the road to heaven, so he couldn't afford to be careless.

"We can't hide in this area near the inner ring, because these are the places with the most fifth and sixth level Transcendent cultivators."

"It's best to go to the outskirts. There are hardly any mid-stage Transcendent Realm cultivators there. As long as I don't get noticed by others, I'll most likely be able to get through this month safely."

Zhao Kun's gaze swept carefully across the map, finally settling on the westernmost edge of the region, an area marked as Sword Valley.

"This is it!"

Sword Valley is the largest secret realm in the outer area, not only in its vast area but also in its complex terrain, with countless caves and fissures.

Hiding here, it's virtually impossible for others to find you.

Zhao Kun no longer hesitated and immediately took action.

He carefully cleaned up the traces inside the cave, making sure no clues were left behind, then slipped into the night like a ghost, hurrying towards Sword Valley.
……

Panlong Town.

Xia Yuan leisurely sipped his tea, his eyes gazing at the distant starry sky.

Beside him, Hua Changfeng asked curiously:

"Teacher, why don't you just eliminate him directly?"

"If he really wants to hide, a month should be enough time for him to get away with it!"

That's right, this limited-time task was issued by Xia Yuan.

Actually, Li Qingxuan and the others hadn't originally designed a timed mission segment; it was Xia Yuan who added it at the end.

Therefore, the task of issuing this time-limited mission was entrusted to Xia Yuan.

Otherwise, there would be no mechanism to trigger a red name.

"It doesn't matter!"

Xia Yuan smiled and shook his head.

"If this person can really live on, it can only mean that the trial participants of the Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Road are really too incompetent!"

If people whose information and intelligence are already out in the open can still act recklessly within the Heavenly Road, then Xia Yuan really has nothing to say.

Of course, he felt that this possibility was not high.

Perhaps in less than a month, Zhao Kun will die.

As for why Xia Yuan issued this task, it was because this guy had indeed gone a bit too far. Those at the Innate Realm who could enter the Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Road were all high-level easy targets.

He wouldn't say anything if he were hunted down by someone of the same realm, or even someone in the early stages of the Transcendent Realm.

But if you, a mid-stage Transcendent Realm cultivator, do nothing but focus on killing his "little韭菜" (a derogatory term for inexperienced individuals), that's just too disgusting.

Moreover, if things continue to develop in this way, the death toll in the surrounding areas will continue to rise.

In the end, most people will probably not be able to leave the Heavenly Road alive.

This is completely contrary to the original intention of the Myriad Phenomena Heavenly Road Trial.

Xia Yuan certainly didn't want the Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Road to become a meat grinder.

Sure enough, right after this limited-time mission was released, the environment in the entire outer area improved significantly.

Although conflict is still inevitable, at least no one dares to hunt down low-level trial participants on a large scale as recklessly as Zhao Kun.

After all, nobody wants to become the next "mobile treasure trove" with a 5,000-point bounty.

"what!"

Just then, Xia Yuan let out a soft exclamation and turned his gaze back to the starry sky, as if he had discovered something interesting.

"What's wrong, teacher?"

"It's not a big deal, it's just that there are demonic beasts in the outer area that have reached the seventh level of the Transcendent Realm."

A demonic beast at the Grandmaster level has appeared in the outer area?
Hua Changfeng was stunned.

Back when he was at the sixth level of the Transcendent Realm, he often fought against the seventh level of the Transcendent Realm, and he knew very well just how strong the seventh level of the Transcendent Realm demon beasts were.

Let alone the late stage of Dark Force, even a peak Dark Force cultivator at the sixth level of Transcendent Realm would be no match for Da Bai.

Even a top-tier grandmaster at the peak of Dark Force, at the seventh level of Transcendent Realm, might not be able to defeat Da Bai.

Anyway, when he was at the seventh level of the Transcendent Realm, he was still easily defeated by Da Bai.

Seemingly having guessed Hua Changfeng's thoughts, Xia Yuan said with a smile:

"You're overthinking it. Even among demonic beasts, Da Bai's strength is among the top."

"Ordinary seventh-level mortal demon beasts are far inferior to it."

"However, even so, based on their own strength alone, no one in the outer region should be a match for that monster."

Xia Yuan had seen those top-tier sixth-level Transcendent Grandmasters in the outer area make their moves.

Perhaps Shi Potian, before his breakthrough, would have a chance to defeat him.

But it's merely a matter of having a chance to defeat or kill; there's no real possibility of that.

The others basically had no choice but to run for their lives.

As for those ranked below tenth on the Grandmaster List, they couldn't even escape.

Of course, if they were given a powerful weapon, they would have a chance to defeat or even kill the top ten.

However, no one in the outer area has been able to exchange for Qi and Blood Treasures yet. In fact, not only Qi and Blood Treasures, but even Refined Treasures have been exchanged by fewer than fifty people.

Most people either used first-tier ordinary ironware or didn't use any weapons at all.

"So, do you want to move this monster to the inner ring area?"

Xia Yuan shook his head.

"No need for that. It's already difficult to gain points at the sixth level of the Transcendent Realm in the outer area. This monster can give them another way to gain points."

A seventh-tier mortal beast can be killed for 3000 points if killed by another beast of the same tier.

However, if a sixth-level Transcendent Realm cultivator can kill it, then the number of kills will triple.

9000 points.

A kill at the fifth level of the Transcendent Realm would earn 15000 points.

Of course, the possibility of a fifth-stage Transcendent Realm cultivator killing a seventh-stage Transcendent Realm cultivator is extremely low!

Even with a powerful artifact, it's practically impossible to achieve.

Unless one reaches the peak of Dark Force in martial arts at the fifth level of Transcendent Realm and integrates both realms of intent into martial arts, creating extraordinary martial arts.

Only in this way can one kill it by using the Qi and Blood Treasure.

But in the more than forty years of the Extraordinary Era, no one has been able to do it.

Even Augustus only achieved this at the sixth level of the Transcendent Realm.

He is also the only one who, before reaching the Grandmaster level, successfully integrated two second-stage concepts into martial arts, creating extraordinary martial arts.

The extraordinary martial arts created by others only incorporated a single artistic conception.

However, being able to achieve this level already qualifies one as a top genius!

"Alright, stop standing here and go cultivate!"

Xia Yuan waved his hand and then continued:

"If you cannot break through to the ninth level of the Mortal Transformation Realm within seven years, then I will send you to the Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Road!"

"No, teacher!"

"I'm going to practice now!"

Hua Changfeng dared not delay any longer, and quickly bowed in greeting. Then, his figure flashed and disappeared from the spot.

Xia Yuan shook his head.

If Hua Changfeng had been half as serious as Wan Chen, his cultivation speed wouldn't have been so slow.

The group of people who embarked on the extraordinary path with him back then.

Most people have now reached the Unity Realm, and even the worst ones are at the ninth level of Transcendent Realm.

Only Hua Changfeng, after more than forty years, has only just reached the eighth level of the Mortal Transformation Realm.

The gap is not generally large.

At this rate, it remains to be seen whether the Qi Palace will be awakened in the future.

That's why Xia Yuancai put some pressure on Hua Changfeng.

"Wan Chen is indeed a good kid!"

Xia Yuan had a hint of satisfaction on his face.

Now, Wan Chen has already opened up ten acupoints and his cultivation is about to break through to the second level of the flesh and blood!
Barring any unforeseen circumstances, it should take at most three years to achieve a breakthrough.

His cultivation speed is not slower than that of those in the Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Road.

"Who will be the next to awaken their Aperture Palace?"

Xia Yuan's gaze seemed to pierce through a distance of more than 300,000 kilometers, looking at the core area of ​​the Myriad Manifestations Sky Road.

Ji Xuan currently has the most awakened acupoints, with 32.

Next is Qingyue, 30 of them.

As for Li Qingxuan, Yuan Liren, and Sikong Yang, there were only about twenty of them.

Next are Xuan Yuan Yun Gui, Mills, Ji Ru Xue, Liu Xiao Yan, and others, who have opened up more than a dozen acupoints.

However, Xuan Yuan Yun Gui not only reached the early stage of the Transformation Realm in martial arts, but also reached the third stage of the Water Intent Realm, and the second stage of the Wind Intent Realm and Fire Intent Realm. It is very likely that he will surpass others.

As for Nangong Hong, after awakening his Source of Power Aperture Palace, he was unable to continue opening up his Aperture Palace.

Awakening one of his acupoints had already exhausted his resources.

To open more acupoints, one must continue to improve one's cultivation, martial arts, laws, and divine soul.

The opening of the aperture palace relies on the inherent strength of the extraordinary individual.

The deeper one's foundation, the more acupoints one can open.

"Are those heading to Mars ready to depart?"

Turning his gaze away, Xia Yuan looked toward Qiming Airport.

The Human Alliance dispatched three spaceships this time, carrying more than three thousand extraordinary individuals, all of whom were Grandmasters or Great Grandmasters.

Such a large number accounts for almost one-seventh of the current human race's Transcendent Realm transcendents.

It can be described as the largest space voyage in history.

For this campaign, the Hong Kong People's Federation has invested nearly ten million contribution points in total.

It is also the second largest project after Vientiane Skyway.

The third largest investment was in the expansion of the Extraordinary Academy.

Starting this year, thirty new extraordinary academies have been added.

This means that at least 30,000 new extraordinary individuals are born each year.

Strictly speaking, the Extraordinary Academy received the most investment.

After all, in just the first year, more than five million contribution points were invested.

The other two projects don't require an annual investment of five million.

Take, for example, the Vientiane Skyway.

That's a total of 20 million contribution points invested over eight years.

On average, it's less than three million per year.

As for the investment in the Extraordinary Academy, five million is just a minimum guarantee.

As time goes on, the strength of the extraordinary individuals will increase, and the investment will only grow larger.

Therefore, even though Xia Yuan can now obtain an extremely large number of Origin Points each year, he has invested them all into the rapidly advancing war machine of the human race.

At such times, if the investment in source crystals cannot keep up, it will inevitably have a huge impact.

Xia Yuan is basically trapped now!

He could only keep investing the acquired source points into it to keep this massive machine running at full speed.

Of course, it's all worth it.

The bigger the business, the greater the benefits will be in the future.

As for improving one's strength, there's no need to rush it.

Xia Yuan plans to wait until he can harvest more than ten million source points each year before launching another major attack.

Achieving this goal is actually not that far off.

It has now exceeded 700,000, and the annual growth rate will not be less than 100,000 in the future.

Ten million source points is only a few decades, less than a hundred years, which is not a very long time.
