Man is devouring, waves are traveling through the universe

Chapter 113 The Phantom King Training Plan

Endless blue flames, radiating terrifying heat, seemed poised to scorch the starry sky to nothing.

Whoosh!Whoosh!Whoosh!
The Divine Sword transformed into a golden light, appearing and disappearing intermittently, sometimes flashing in the void.

The Immortal-grade Star-Eating Grass spread its golden tendrils, the thick and ferocious vines like an ocean, ignoring the scorching blue flames, covering the surrounding starry sky for tens of thousands of miles.

Puff~ Puff~
With the help of the Star-Eating Grass, Ye Xingkong wielded the Divine Sword and easily killed two alien immortals.

"Master, you just earned military merit!"

"A total of two hundred million military merits!"

Qing'er's surprised voice rang in her heart.

"Two hundred million...?"

Ye Xingkong pondered for a moment, then nodded calmly.

Those two "Star Clan" immortals were easily killed by me using the Divine Sword, so their combat power was obviously quite ordinary. They should only be low-level military lord immortals.

In the battlefield outside the domain, the military merits for killing an immortal military lord are divided into only two levels: 10 million military merits for a low-level immortal military lord and 1 billion military merits for a high-level immortal military lord.

At this moment, Ye Xingkong turned his gaze to another battlefield.

He Gu was leading the other eight Realm Lords of the Thunderbolt Squad to besiege the remaining Immortal and more than twenty Realm Lords of this alien team.

With the support of the Hundred Vine Star-Eating Grass, the Thunderbolt Squad, despite being outnumbered, still held an absolute advantage.

Ye Xingkong observed silently from the sidelines, showing no intention of joining the battle.

Even if you eat meat yourself, you should still let others have some soup.

"Hey, that's interesting!"

Ye Xingkong saw Huanling riding a flying telekinetic weapon, with a light green weapon over three meters long on her back, resembling the trunk of an ancient tree branch.

That was the "Azure Divine Weapon," one of the nine divine weapons controlled by the same master, combining the two fundamental laws of "wood" and "space."

Huanling is an illusionist, but in Ye Xingkong's opinion, the power she wields with the Azure Divine Weapon is in no way weaker than that of the other controllers such as Zixue and Ziyi.

brush!
Huanling's eyes turned pink, her gaze becoming extremely alluring. Wherever her gaze fell, the three Starlight Clan Realm Lords instantly lost their life force and their eyes dimmed.

"This phantom spirit... could it also be an elite member sent out for training by some major power?"

Ye Xingkong was a little confused.

About half an hour later.

“Haha, well done!”

He Gu led the Thunderbolt Squad, forcing the last Star Clan Immortal to self-destruct and end his life.

However, the power of the self-destruction was blocked by the Immortal-class Star-Eating Grass, and it did not affect anyone else at all.

"Pack your spoils and let's go!"

He Gu let out a low shout.

The Thunder Squad acted swiftly, taking away all the main valuables before flying into the Giant Rock Star.

"That was awesome! I've been fighting on the battlefields beyond the realms for tens of thousands of years, and I've never fought such a satisfying battle!"

"Hehe, with an Immortal-grade Star-Eating Grass, the other side can't escape if they want to, and they can't beat them if they want to fight. I feel hopeless for them."

"Come on, let's take stock of what we've gained from this battle!"

In the main control room of the Giant Rock Star, the Thunder Squad members sat together, filled with laughter and cheerful conversation.

In addition to military merits, every battle fought on foreign battlefields also yields a great deal of wealth from the spoils captured from the enemy.

"Everyone put their collected spoils in the very center."

He Gu glanced at everyone and said in a deep voice.

Whoosh!Whoosh!Whoosh!
Each person tossed out a World Ring, and everyone's consciousness scanned them one by one, easily determining the approximate gains from this battle.

"Three Star Clan Immortals and twenty-four Realm Lords, aside from the property damaged in the battle, are all worth approximately 600,000 Chaos Yuan."

A smile appeared on He Gu's face.

"Six hundred thousand Hunyuan?"

"My goodness, these Star Clan Immortals are incredibly wealthy!"

"It's normal that they've spent a long time fighting on foreign battlefields and have some assets."

The Thunderbolt Squad members all wore expressions of excitement.

With such immense wealth, even if each of them only received a small share, it would still be more than they had earned in their thousands of years of wandering.

"Ye Wen!"

He Gu looked at Ye Xingkong, his purple face serious, and said, "According to our team's rules, whoever contributes the most gets the most wealth. We couldn't have won this battle without you, so you are the biggest contributor and can get seventy percent of the spoils."

The Thunderbolt Squad has been venturing into the outer battlefields for tens of thousands of years. The reason why everyone can be united is not only because of the deep feelings accumulated in many life-and-death battles, but also because the team has a fair contribution distribution mechanism.

More work, more pay; less work, less pay.

Based on Ye Xingkong's contributions this time, even if he takes 90% of the spoils, the others will not have any complaints.

However, since everyone is part of the same team, if one person gets meat, the others should also get some soup.

Therefore, no matter how much effort someone puts in, they can only get a maximum of 70% of the total spoils.

Ye Xingkong took the world ring, glanced at it casually, and picked out a refining material worth about 50,000 Hunyuan.

"Captain, I'll just take one item at random, and the rest can be divided among everyone."

Ye Xingkong said with a smile.

He really didn't care much about this small amount of money.

"Wow! Ye Wen, you're so handsome!"

"Ye Wen, you are my idol!"

"Wow, as expected of an elite from a major power, they certainly don't lack money!"

The Thunderbolt Squad members all showed excited expressions, looking at Ye Xingkong as if they wanted to hug him tightly.

"Alright, then I'll thank you on behalf of everyone."

"Come on, everyone, let's divide the money!"

He Gu said with a smile.

Of the total wealth of 550,000 Hunyuan, He Gu took 200,000 Hunyuan, Huan Ling took 80,000 Hunyuan, and the remaining amount was about 30,000 to 40,000 Hunyuan for each person on average.

"I've struck it rich!"

The beast gleefully counted its share of the spoils, its eyes gleaming.

It should be noted that the average net worth of an ordinary immortal is only around ten thousand Hunyuan.

However, even the lowest-ranking warriors in the Thunderbolt Squad received at least 30,000 Chaos Yuan, making them richer than ordinary Immortals.

The net worth of each member of the Thunderbolt Squad increased dramatically from the spoils of this battle alone.

"From now on, our team will follow Ye Wen's lead!"

"Wherever Ye Wen points, we'll attack!"

He Gu said with great excitement.

Surprisingly, none of the other members of the Thunderbolt Squad objected after hearing this.

Faced with enormous profits, the titles of "captain" and "team leader" become meaningless.

Only a fool wouldn't cling tightly to a powerful ally.

······
The years that followed.

Ye Xingkong then led the Thunderbolt Squad to venture into the Cold Flame Lake combat zone.

Because of their numerous successful attacks, the Thunderbolt Squad gradually gained some fame around Cold Flame Lake.

After all, even the most technologically backward demon alliance in the extraterrestrial battlefield has a real-time communication system.

Every time the Thunderbolt Squad fights against powerful alien races, some of the aliens use the communication system to request help from their allies or to send messages.

Over time, the powerful figures who ventured into Cold Flame Lake naturally came to know about the human team that possessed a single Immortal-grade Hundred-Vine Star-Eating Grass.

Giant Rock Star, the spacecraft's main control room.

"Haha, let's celebrate another victory!"

The Thunderbolt Squad members gathered together, each drinking fine wine, their faces beaming with joy.

Unbeknownst to them, they had been adventuring at Cold Flame Lake for three years.

Over the past three years, the Thunderbolt Squad has participated in more than thirty battles, large and small, and has won every single one, except for a few instances where the enemy escaped. "Gentlemen."

At this moment, Captain He Gu paused, looked at everyone, and said with a smile, "Today, in addition to celebrating this victory, what's even more exciting is that our team member 'Beast' has successfully broken through to Immortality!"

"Congratulations, beast!"

May you have an eternal life and endless wealth!

The Thunderbolt Squad offered their sincere congratulations.

They had been venturing together on distant battlefields for tens of thousands of years, and their bond was extremely strong.

Seeing the "Beast" finally break through to immortality is naturally a great joy.

"Haha, it's mainly thanks to Ye Wen!"

"If it weren't for his backup, I wouldn't go to such lengths in every battle."

The beast laughed loudly.

These realm lords and generals would definitely be considered big shots anywhere in the universe.

But why abandon everything and come to this unknown battlefield in the outer realms?

Isn't it all about achieving immortality and attaining eternal life?

Although the Lord of the Realm has a lifespan of a thousand epochs, he is not immortal and will one day face the end of his life.

"Only immortality is eternal!"

Zi Xue looked somewhat desolate, feeling both happy for the beast and uncertain about his own future.

Will I be able to live to the day I become immortal?

"Everyone, because the beast has broken through to immortality, it needs to establish its own divine kingdom as soon as possible."

"For immortal powerhouses, the importance of a divine kingdom is beyond doubt, and they certainly cannot create a divine kingdom on the battlefield outside the domain."

"So my suggestion is to return to the barracks base for now."

He Gu glanced at everyone and said in a deep voice.

Upon hearing this, the others nodded slightly.

After three years of adventuring at Cold Flame Lake, everyone reaped huge rewards and accumulated a large amount of loot.

However, spoils of war are just spoils of war; they can only be converted into money after being sold back at the barracks base.

"After three years of wandering, it's time to go back and recharge properly."

"I've just managed to scrape together enough money, so I can go back and buy that divine weapon I've been eyeing for a long time."

"I agree, it's time to get some rest."

The Thunderbolt Squad members all nodded, but in the end, they all turned their gaze to Ye Xingkong.

Although He Gu is the nominal captain of the team, almost everyone listens to Ye Xingkong now.

"Ye Wen, what do you think?"

At this moment, Huanling suddenly looked at Ye Xingkong and asked in a low voice.

"I?"

Ye Xingkong thought for a while and said, "Everyone, I plan to leave the team and continue to explore Cold Flame Lake."

In an instant, the Thunderbolt Squad fell silent.

However, they also knew that with Ye Wen's strength, coming to the outer battlefield must have been for other training missions.

Initially, I followed them because of restrictions imposed by the military system.

During these three years, Ye Wen had already accumulated 1 billion military merits and could leave the Thunderbolt Squad at any time. The fact that he only proposed to leave now shows that he was being very considerate of the Thunderbolt Squad members.

"Alright! Ye Wen, I don't know if this is your real name, but anyway, I wish you a smooth path to becoming a powerful figure!"

"Ye Wen, thanks. If it weren't for you, I would have died countless times already!"

"Hehe, when you become a super strong person in the future, don't forget that you have a brother like me!"

The expressions on the faces of the Thai Thunder Squad members were rather complicated.

Although they were all very reluctant to part with Ye Xingkong, they had all guessed in their hearts that a strong person of this level could not possibly follow a small team of their level for a long time.

Just as everyone was feeling very sad, a weak voice suddenly rang out.

"Captain, Sister Peach Blossom, and the other brothers."

"I... I'm leaving the team to venture out on my own!"

Huanling blushed and whispered.

"What? Phantom Spirit, you're leaving too!"

Peach Blossom couldn't help but speak, a hint of reluctance flashing in her beautiful eyes.

"As you can see, I have come to the battlefield outside the region with other missions besides the military merit requirements."

Huanling pursed her lips and said reluctantly.

"Yes, if the Phantom Spirit's soul attack can kill an immortal powerhouse, how could it be an ordinary realm lord?"

"I'm afraid... they are also elites trained by some powerful force."

A bitter smile flashed across He Gu's purple face.

In the battles over the years, Phantom Spirit has also performed remarkably well, once using a soul attack to kill an ordinary immortal.

It was only because Ye Xingkong was too dazzling that he blocked Huanling's light.

"Feel sorry."

Huanling spoke softly to the crowd.

"No need to apologize."

He Gu shook his head and said, "If you stay with us, it's a waste of your time to deal with the weak. But if you deal with the strong... we'll become a burden to you. You and Ye Wen's decision is right."

However, despite saying that, He Gu felt bitter inside.

Their Thunder Squad had suddenly lost three of their most powerful warriors.

However, he also knew in his heart that geniuses like Ye Xingkong and Huanling would eventually have to leave.

Fortunately, Dashan successfully broke through to immortality.

"After the other members of the team return, they will also be able to transform their wealth into strength."

"Overall, the Thunderbolt Squad's combat power has actually increased significantly."

He Gu thought to himself silently.

"Don't be too sad. Maybe, just maybe, we'll meet again someday."

Ye Xingkong said with a smile.

After all, we've been working together for several years, and we've developed some feelings for each other.

Besides, Ye Xingkong has a fairly good impression of the Thunderbolt Squad members, and if the opportunity arises in the future, he might as well give them a helping hand.

"But, Phantom Spirit..."

"Could it really be the Phantom King?"

Ye Xingkong looked at Huanling's pretty face, a thought flashing through his mind.

When he first encountered Huanling, he did consider that Huanling might become the future Huanling King, but he felt that the possibility was not high.

After all, the universe is so vast, the possibility of having the same name is too high.

But after these three years, Ye Xingkong was basically 100% certain.

but……

Isn't the current Phantom King a bit too green?

"Hmm~"

"The Phantom King Training Plan, huh? It sounds pretty good."

"Hehe, Hong, you should thank me, because with me around, your love life won't encounter any unexpected problems!"

Ye Xingkong crossed his arms, his gaze fixed on Huanling's curvaceous body, a wicked smile playing on his lips.

"Hey! What kind of look is that on my face?!"

Huanling blushed and said through gritted teeth.
