Devouring the Stars: Soul Master

Chapter 135 The Trial Tower of the Qianwu

"Yes, Lord Thirteen!"

Qin Ming nodded respectfully.

The scaled giant Immortal 'Thirteen' glanced around, a smile appearing on his lips, then turned and flew back into the spaceship, with Qin Ming quickly following.

The blood-red rhombus-shaped spaceship disappeared in a twist.

The square was silent.

"An immortal powerhouse has actually descended! And the markings on that spaceship are the emblems only the royal family of the Qianwu Universe Kingdom possesses!"

The City Lord of Qiulongxing, who was watching all this from the City Lord's Mansion, was horrified.

The terrifying aura of the immortal powerhouse, even just a glance from him, made him feel as if he were suffocating, trapped in an endless illusion.

"Just what is the background of this Kyushu Trading Company? How could it be able to establish connections with the immortal royal family of the Qianwu Universe Kingdom? And who is that young man who was taken away?"

His expression was uncertain, but a moment later he disappeared from the city lord's mansion and flew towards the Kyushu Trading Company.

We must find out the truth!

It wasn't just him; almost all the forces on the entire Qilong Star were like this.

In just a short while, the Kyushu Trading Company was surrounded by people who came to inquire about the news. Whether they were cosmic-level powerhouses or the Lord of Qiulong City, they all smiled and had gentle expressions.

In the past, these were powerful figures whom Zhao Xingguo and others could never come into contact with.

"What? That boy who was taken away was absorbed into the Qianwu Secret Realm? A genius personally picked up by an immortal powerhouse?"

When the news spread, everyone was in an uproar.

Even the City Lord of Qiulong, who was still a Domain Lord, couldn't help but show a hint of flattery when facing Zhao Xingguo, who was only a Planetary level cultivator.

When one person attains enlightenment, chickens and dogs ascend to heaven!

What kind of achievements will a genius of this caliber make in the future?

If not now, when?

. . . . . . . .

In the starry sky, inside the control room of a kilometer-long, blood-red, diamond-shaped spaceship.

"You've broken through to the Stellar level? Not bad!"

The Scaled Giant Immortal 'Thirteen' glanced at Qin Ming and a smile appeared on his lips.

Just over ten days ago, Qin Ming was still at the planetary level, but now he is at the stellar level, meeting the standard for participating in the Genius Battle.

This will undoubtedly give Qin Ming more time to grow.

It should be understood that the ruler of Qianwu Kingdom trained these people in the hope that they could achieve better results in the Genius Battle.

Qin Ming is undoubtedly a top contender.

"Reporting to Your Excellency, I was so excited upon learning that I could join the Qianwu Secret Realm that I naturally broke through."

Qin Ming spoke respectfully, while inwardly he sighed with admiration.

The feeling of being granted immortality in reality was far stronger than that in the virtual universe. Even with his mental fortitude, he felt a strange sense of panic.

"Haha, you certainly know how to talk."

Thirteen said with a smile.

"Under normal circumstances, someone from the secret realm should come to guide you."

However, the situation is special now, because the Cosmic Peak Genius Battle will be held in a few years, and time is tight, so I came here in person.

"We'll teleport directly to the vicinity of the Qianwu Secret Realm via the Divine Kingdom in a moment, so don't panic."

"The Ultimate Battle of Geniuses in the Universe?"

A look of curiosity appeared on Qin Ming's face.

"You didn't know? Well, that makes sense. The Cosmic Peak Genius Battle is held twice every ten thousand years."

A virtual universe company event was held.

A giant axe arena battle was held, open to all stellar-level humans from numerous cosmic nations. Anyone who is a stellar-level human can participate.

In a few years, it will be hosted by Virtual Universe Company.

Based on the geniuses who have participated in previous competitions, our Qianwu Universe Kingdom alone has over 8000 billion star-level geniuses participating.

Humanity has 1008 universe nations, and each universe nation will select 1000 people to start the ultimate final battle.

You're not very old, and it's normal that you don't know this without anyone guiding you.

But once you join the Dry Witch Secret Realm, you must know this and strive towards this goal!

The Scaled Giant Immortal 'Thirteen' shook his head slightly.

Any power with a bit of influence knows about this, and many geniuses are preparing for it. Someone like Lei Yao deliberately suppressed his strength and waited for this opportunity.

If successful, joining the core of the Virtual Universe Company, even in the lowest-level post-apocalyptic secret realm, would be a chance to rise to the top in one step.

"An 8000 billion genius!"

Qin Ming's expression changed, and he was also calculating in his heart how far he could go with his current strength.
His continuous breakthroughs caused his strength to surge, and his understanding of the laws directly soared to the fifth level of the Earth Domain, even stepping into the threshold of the Earth Law.

The amplitude of mental energy is also increasing rapidly.

Its overall strength has increased more than tenfold compared to the past.

If they were to encounter a genius of Lei Yao's caliber again, they wouldn't even need to use a soul attack; they could simply crush him.

However, there is still a considerable gap between them and the most outstanding geniuses in the universe in terms of their understanding of the domain and laws.

People like Bolan and Rong Jun have all grasped the higher laws of time and space!
Of course, if it comes down to soul power, Qin Ming might not be any worse than them.

And it's only September 2057 now.

The Battle of the Ultimate Geniuses will not begin until March 9, 2066.

I've only been practicing for two years!
I still have enough time to surpass them and crush them!

"Are you stressed?"

The Scaled Giant Immortal 'Thirteen' smiled. "No, I'm just a little excited. I haven't encountered an opponent since I started cultivating."

Qin Ming's voice was calm, yet full of confidence.

"Never met your match? Hahaha, that's got character!"

The Scaled Giant Thirteen laughed loudly. "Geniuses, before they get beaten, aren't they all arrogant?"

"Once you reach the Qianwu Secret Realm, defeat all the geniuses of the same level before saying this."

Entering the Qianwu Secret Realm also requires passing an assessment to determine your level.

"Don't let things go wrong right from the start."

Qin Ming is indeed exceptionally talented, but in 'Thirteen's' opinion, he has only just broken through to the Stellar level and is probably still far behind some of the veteran geniuses in the Qianwu Secret Realm.

Among these are some realms at the ninth level, which are the thresholds for entering the laws.

"You haven't experienced teleportation to a divine realm yet, have you?"

The scaled giant 'Thirteen' smiled and said nothing more.

When the time comes, Qin Ming will naturally find out.

"No."

Qin Ming shook his head. This was the first time he had ever encountered a living immortal in reality; he had never experienced anything like it before.

"Compared to spaceships traveling through the dark universe, this is a faster way to reach the Qianwu Secret Realm."

Even with my spaceship's capabilities, it would take me about a year to reach the Qianwu Secret Realm.

But if teleported through the divine realm, it would only take an instant.

With the explanation from the Immortal 'Thirteen' of the Scaled Giant, Qin Ming also learned what Divine Kingdom Teleportation was.

The divine kingdoms of immortal powerhouses are all located in the cracks of space, and the channels connecting the divine kingdoms to the outside world are teleportation channels.

Through teleportation, two places hundreds of millions of light-years apart or even further can be reached instantly via a teleportation channel.

As long as there are remaining coordinates in the universe, a spatial channel can be opened for teleportation.

However, each teleportation requires opening a spatial channel, and the cost varies depending on the distance.

Each teleportation requires three or four Hunyuan Points.

Only those who have attained the rank of Marquis and become immortal are willing to travel in such a hurry; ordinary immortal military lords usually fly slowly in spaceships.

"gone."

"Thirteen" gave a reminder, and then his whole body faintly rippled with a strong aura of law.

His eyes gazed into the endless void, and an incredibly dazzling light shone from his body, instantly spreading out and covering the cosmic space within a radius of several kilometers.

hold head high!
The entire spaceship was enveloped in blinding light.

"Is this the kingdom of gods?"

Enveloped in the blinding light, Qin Ming looked outside in astonishment. Through the spaceship, he could vaguely see a very tall palace in the distant depths of that blinding light.

It was an incredibly vast world, with towering mountain ranges reaching into the clouds, and countless powerful monsters roaming within it.

In the center of the mountain range stands an extremely tall palace.

The palace radiated light continuously, illuminating the entire divine kingdom.

The moment the spaceship entered the divine realm, the light from the temple within the realm condensed, forming a pillar of light.

boom!
A beam of light shot into the sky!

The rhombus-shaped spaceship swiftly flew towards the pillar of light, entered the dazzling pillar, and then vanished into thin air within it.

Whoosh!
The teleportation to the divine kingdom was complete, and the dazzling pillar of light dissipated.

The spaceship shuddered slightly and appeared in a dreamlike starry sky.

In the far reaches of the starry sky, there is a vast, incomparably large supercontinent suspended in the cosmos.

"This is the Qianwu Secret Realm?"

Qin Ming was shocked. This was not a virtual universe, but a vast continent in the real universe!
Through his memories of his past life, he knew that there were some special continents in the universe, such as the headquarters of the Virtual Universe Company, the Blood Luo Continent, and so on.

But when he actually saw it, the shock he felt was so profound that it made his scalp tingle.

The stars beside the vast landmass floating in the starry sky appear as tiny as fireflies in comparison.

The crimson rhombus-shaped spaceship continued to approach the continent, but after flying for quite some time, the continent remained far away.

"This is the Qianwu Secret Realm, also known as the Qianwu Continent!"

Its diameter is approximately 1.2 light-years, and it contains countless powerful beings.

You will be living and experiencing it for a long time to come.

"Immortal Scales Thirteen" smiled slightly. Only a great cosmic venerable could use a special secret realm continent as a training ground.

This was enough to shock even a stellar-level little guy like Qin Ming.

Although they could see the vast continent in the starry sky, it took the F-class spaceship, traveling at near the speed of light, about three hours to reach an entrance in the Qianwu Continent.

During the flight, Qin Ming saw some planets and stars floating around the continent, but he could still vaguely sense the technological creations contained within them.

It can be placed around the Qianwu Continent as a defense, and at the very least, it can kill immortals.

call!
Guided by the starport, the spaceship slowly came to a stop in the entrance passage to the continent.

Following behind the Immortal Scale Armor 'Thirteen', the two flew out of the hatch.

"In the Qianwu Secret Realm, geniuses are divided into four levels: Heaven, Earth, Profound, and Yellow."

Each level will have different benefits.

As for how to distinguish them, it's very simple.

That is to challenge the Trial Tower of the Qianwu!
