Swallowing the Stars: Providing a Loan to Luo Feng Begins

Chapter 179 As long as everyone works hard, I can get a mechanical treasure! (3.5k)

The man sitting on the mountain always had a vague feeling that something was wrong.

How could the supreme rules allow the primordial universe to cultivate an existence like its disciple Luo Feng? Could there really be a disaster more terrifying than the World Beast?

If so.

It seems he also needs to help his disciple grow as soon as possible!

After thinking for a moment, he asked:

"Luo Feng, is there anything I can help you with?"

Luo Feng looked up. He had just heard Chen Qi say that he wanted Master Zuoshanke to help him refine weapons to earn materials. It turned out that Master Zuoshanke had actually offered to do so.

Chen Qi, who was in the system space, was also amused.

Unexpectedly, the Mountain Hermit was willing to help. In the original story, Luo Feng wanted him to help refine a supreme treasure, but he needed to achieve a certain number of enemy kills.

"Luo Feng, quickly agree."

"It's the same old trick. Just say that you have obtained a legacy of an ancient civilization and that you need enough treasures to accumulate it."

"Teacher, I do have a favor to do," Luo Feng said softly, seemingly a little embarrassed. His embarrassment wasn't feigned; he was genuinely embarrassed.

Such as the Lord of Qianwu, the Lord of Tianshi Palace, etc.

It can all be described as the contribution system of the Galactic Holy Land. The more contributions you make, the more treasures you can obtain that will help you with cultivation.

Mutually beneficial.

He only took a tiny bit of the cut.

But for the Lord of the Dry Witches and others, this was already a great benefit.

but
Luo Feng knew that the treasures he could take out from his own treasure vault wouldn't actually help the Mountain-Sitting Guest. The treasures that could help the God King, how could he possibly borrow them now?

Basically, it means that the people sitting on the mountain are working for free.

When the Mountain Guest heard this, he felt a little embarrassed that his disciple was being so distant. He just didn't care about Emperor Yan and wasn't particularly nice to Puti in his daily conversations, but he actually cared about Puti quite a bit.

Otherwise, I wouldn't have taken Puti with me for so many things.

He valued Luo Feng, this outstanding disciple, even more, placing all his hopes for revenge on him.

The guest sitting on the mountain then said directly:

"Don't be shy, just tell me what you need. If I can help, I will do my best."

"I just wanted to ask the teacher for help in refining and crafting..." Luo Feng was about to say.

The Mountain-Sitting Guest interrupted, saying, "It's just weapon crafting? What kind of question is that? That's what our teacher excels at."

"We've refined a bit too much," Luo Feng added.

"Many?" The mountain dweller frowned, but then realized it wasn't anything to worry about.

How many can there be?
The God of Craftsmanship had received guidance from him before. He had heard the God of Craftsmanship say that he was going to forge a supreme treasure for the Lord of the Galaxy, but the God of Craftsmanship could not reveal the details.

The Mountain Guest only knew that the God of Crafts had been refining weapons.

Since that's the case, and the God of Crafts and others can refine low-level treasures, there probably aren't many that need his help, right?
Even when refining some weaker supreme treasures, treasures that are allowed to be refined under the original universe rules, still require sufficient materials!

We can't just let him keep refining it, can we?

after a while.

Inside the Star Tower.

The mountain dweller watched as the Zerg soldiers busily moved materials and treasures, and the rooms radiated fiery energy.

There are many powerful human beings here, including many cosmic lords, as well as many Zerg soldiers and Zerg queens, all engaged in weapon forging... Nowadays, the Zerg queens, due to their different areas of expertise, are no longer all forging weapons here.

Some have shifted to the production sectors of 'livestock' and 'agriculture'.

Maximizing the use of labor.

The hermit also heard about what his disciple was going to do.

His disciple said that he had obtained a treasure trove, and that he needed enough resources to unlock the treasures at each level.

so.
A large number of treasures are needed.

The more the better, as the materials for refining weapons can be supplied indefinitely, so the Mountain Dwellers don't need to collect and process them themselves...

The mountain dweller is numb.

They actually wanted him to refine a large number of treasures, preferably without stopping for a moment.
“Teacher, you can rest whenever you want. Every piece you refine is already a help to your disciple.” Luo Feng was very grateful. He didn’t expect that his teacher would still agree to this after learning about the situation.

Actually.
The person sitting on the mountain was even more worried.

His disciple not only obtained Duan Donghe's inheritance, but also a vast treasure trove. No wonder so many universe lords have risen up among the human race.

but
Why would the supreme rules allow so many treasures to appear in the primordial universe?

He had more guesses about the crisis, and it was very likely that there were more than just the existence of the Beasts of the Realm... because it was far beyond his comprehension.

However, as a god-king.

The Mountain-Sitting Guest understood one thing even better: there are always people more capable than you, and there are always higher realms to conquer. It was perfectly normal for someone as mere first-level God King to be unaware of many things.

"Refine weapons; you must refine them with all your might."

"The supreme rules allow the primordial universe's original will to release so many great opportunities. If there were only World Beasts, why would there be any need to create them? In this situation, how could World Beasts possibly destroy the primordial universe's origin?"

Thinking of this, the Mountain Guest used his token to contact Luo Feng and said, "Luo Feng, I'll go and call the Flame God Clan to work for you."

"The Flame God Clan? My so-called second senior brother can't be that honest, can he?" Luo Feng was naturally happy to have more labor, even if it meant sending them to the agricultural area to grow rare and exotic plants, or to the pastoral area to raise exotic beasts.

That's a gain in itself.

However, given Yan Di's nature, he certainly wouldn't be honest.

"It's alright, the teacher will keep an eye on him. If he dares to disobey orders or do anything underhanded, then he won't have a reason to live," the Mountain Hermit said calmly.

Luo Feng thought about it and agreed.

Anyway, he didn't plan to contribute any points to Emperor Yan, so he wouldn't be able to improve his strength much.

With Yan Di's meager strength, there are far too many beings in his Milky Way Holy Land who can suppress him... The Lord of the Heavenly Eclipse Palace, the Lord of the Ancestral Tree, the Lord of the Star Prison Demon, and even the Lord of the Qianwu are not afraid of him!

Not long after, Emperor Yan arrived at the Holy Land of the Milky Way with a fawning expression.

He was unhappy. But he couldn't afford to offend either his junior brother, the 'Galaxy Lord,' or his teacher, the 'Mountain Dweller'!
Time passed little by little.

Seeing that Emperor Yan was listless, the mountain dweller realized that everyone else was making contributions, while he was just working for free.

The same applies to those who sit on the mountain.

Luo Feng said he would reserve some contribution points for Zuo Shan Ke, but Zuo Shan Ke refused. He felt that nothing in the Primordial Universe was useful to him, a God-King, so there was no need for contribution points. He was just there to help his disciple.

"What's with the fuss?"

“Work hard!”

The mountain dweller reprimanded Emperor Yan.

Emperor Yan was extremely frustrated. They were all disciples, yet the difference in their treatment was so vast? Was he, the senior brother, being forced to work for his junior brother for free?
The Holy Land of the Milky Way.

On the outskirts of the Holy Land.

A vast pastoral area where various exotic beasts are raised. Different levels of exotic beasts require strong individuals of varying strength to feed them.

Some strange beasts release toxins. These beasts are extremely ferocious, and those who are weak cannot even raise them, and may even be killed by them.

"Haha, I'm more skilled at raising rare and exotic beasts." The Palace Master of the Heavenly Eclipse Palace was managing his half of the area.

Pastoral area.

The main responsibility was given to the Heavenly Eclipse Palace Master and the Star Prison Demon Lord, who each occupied half of the area for development. There were also specific methods for raising exotic beasts.

How can we enable those who are weaker to raise higher-level mythical beasts?

And how to make some alien beasts more docile and grow faster—this is all a business, now managed by the intelligent life form 'Babata' of the Galactic Holy Land.

The rankings are based on the value of the contribution points earned by him and the Star Prison Demon Lord.

Finally, the position of pastoral area supervisor will be determined.

He, the Palace Master of the Heavenly Eclipse Palace, has held the number one spot for a long time.

The three former top cosmic overlords of the human race.

The Star Prison Demon Lord, the Heavenly Eclipse Palace Master, and the Ancestral Tree Master created a small group together, which initially consisted of just the three of them chatting.

Even a super strong person has social needs on a daily basis.

They would occasionally discuss matters related to cultivation.

But gradually.
The Heavenly Eclipse Palace Master pulled into the group chat a series of important figures, including the Qianwu Lord in charge of 'weapon forging' and the Zerg Queen who acted as 'intermediary' by mobilizing sufficient labor from various parties.

This group serves more than just casual chatting.

The Palace Master of the Eclipse Palace was the first to utilize this channel for disseminating information.

On ordinary days, the group will communicate about the allocation of resources. For example, sometimes the pastoral area needs some special crops, which are too expensive in the system's treasury. In such cases, they will negotiate with the Ancestral Tree Master of the agricultural area to have them plant some crops that the pastoral area needs.

Let's share the contribution points.

The collaboration among managers of various departments is overseen by Babata.

Overall production efficiency has also improved significantly.

In a group chat.

Palace Master of the Heavenly Eclipse Palace: [Demon Lord, you're not so good at this either. You're only good at fighting and killing. When it comes to managing and raising exotic beasts, you can't compare to me. I designed all the breeding programs and plans for each of the exotic beasts first. You'd better admit defeat and become my deputy.]

Star Prison Demon Lord: [The 100,000-year assessment period is far from over... It's still uncertain who will be whose deputy.]

Palace Master of the Celestial Eclipse Palace: [But I see that your current operating model is completely copied from mine. You're following the same path as me, how can you possibly surpass me?]

System notification: [Group owner 'Star Prison Demon Lord' has removed 'Eclipse Palace Master' from the administrator list.]

Palace Master of the Celestial Eclipse Palace: [Huh?! Demon Lord! What are you doing? Starting to cheat? Give me back my administrator account.]

Star Prison Demon Lord: [Don't bother me, I'll turn the tables soon!]

System notification: [Group owner 'Star Prison Demon Lord' has muted 'Heavenly Eclipse Palace Master' for one day.]

Lord of the Ancestral Tree: [Hahaha, Star Prison Demon Lord, you're too wicked! But Demon Lord, don't be too angry. If you don't want to be the deputy of the Heavenly Eclipse Palace Master, you can come to my 'Agricultural Zone.' This Agricultural Zone was personally assigned to me by the Galactic Lord. In recent years, Babata has also said that the Lord has praised me!]

Star Prison Demon Lord: [What are you bragging about? Shut up too.]

System notification: [Group owner 'Star Prison Demon Lord' has removed 'Lord of the Ancestral Tree' from the administrator list.]

Lord of the Ancestral Tree: [?!]

System notification: [Group owner 'Star Prison Demon Lord' has muted 'Lord of the Ancestral Tree' for one day.]

Lord of the Witches: [Demon Lord, please don't remove me from the administrator list. I just want to quietly forge weapons and earn contribution points. I'll need to find someone to communicate with about resources later.]

A wisp of consciousness was withdrawn from the group chat messages.

"That Star Prison Demon Lord... I should have created a group chat back then." The Heavenly Eclipse Palace Master wasn't angry at all; a one-day ban had no real impact.

He looked at the development of his pastoral area with anticipation.

As a manager.

In addition to their own contributions, they also receive 'salary' contributions from the managers. The higher the development of the managed area, the higher their performance and the higher their contribution points.

therefore
Although he has a good relationship with the Star Prison Demon Lord and the Ancestral Tree Lord, he still wants to compete for the position of administrator.

Monster clan.

The Star Prison Demon Lord's divine body arrived deep within the heart of the demon realm.

Step by step, they entered the main hall of the Dream Demon Ancestor.

"If I can bring the demon race under my command and have them raise demon beasts in my pasture, then the number of powerful people under my command will increase significantly. Even if he copies the Tian Shi model, he still can't beat me."

"I have already reported to the lord, now it's up to me to see what terms I can negotiate."

The Star Prison Demon Lord was very confident. The demon race was now eager to join the Galactic Holy Land, because the human race was rising too fast. If they were dragged along any longer, the demon race would be of no use. He could exploit them ruthlessly.

With a powerful galactic lord behind them, having both background and strength, the negotiations would be very easy.

Luo Feng was well aware of the competition and development within the Galaxy Holy Land.
He was very satisfied with this; he didn't have to do anything, yet his productivity was rapidly increasing, and he had more and more treasures in his possession.

As long as everyone works hard.

His mechanical treasure is not far off!
If everyone were more proactive, he could even equip himself with an even better mechanical-style artifact!
