Humans are devouring and selling off the heavens.

Chapter 123 The Body of a Realm Lord, and the New Guest Lin Lei
2065 7 Month 6 Day.

Xu Qing looked at the package delivered by the Cosmic Galaxy Bank: a silver-gray metal cabinet several meters long, its surface gleaming with a cold, hard metallic sheen.

He focused his mental energy on the unlocking area, and the metal cabinet made a slight opening sound as it slowly slid open to both sides.

In an instant, a chill of absolute zero erupted forth, and the surrounding space and time seemed to freeze instantly. Even the suspended molecules and atoms condensed in mid-air, carrying a chill that could instantly freeze a war god-level expert into an ice sculpture.

Xu Qing's expression remained unchanged; the chill that was enough to freeze even a war god couldn't make him feel cold.

Ultimately, this is just a "delivery food storage box".

As the chill dissipated, the items in the cabinet came into view.

Those were two corpses. Even though their life force had long been extinguished, the pervasive pressure could still make the souls of ordinary star-level powerhouses tremble.

The information was clearly displayed on the light screen inside the metal cabinet: Two corpses of peak Realm Lords, urgent.

"Finally arrived." Xu Qing's gaze swept over the date on the virtual delivery confirmation screen, but her eyebrows twitched almost imperceptibly.

From placing the order to receiving the goods, it took exactly five years and three months.

For ordinary people, this amount of time is enough for a primary school graduate to grow into an adult.

Xu Qing smacked his lips. Not bad, not too slow.

There's nothing we can do about it; this is a tomato-themed world. In a tomato-themed world, time is like a supermarket item nearing its expiration date—it's worthless.

Sending a package is considered fast even if it takes a year, and this is the "express" service that Universe Galaxy Bank provides to its Level 5 users.

Xu Qing remembered that a few years ago, he had encountered a Realm Lord selling the corpse of a Realm Lord at the peak of his power.

The other party had stockpiled a lot of goods in the extraterritorial battlefield, and the price was lower than that of the Virtual Universe Company and the Cosmic Galaxy Bank. They also enthusiastically patted their chests and guaranteed to Xu Qing: "My spaceship is close to 10 times the speed of light, and it will arrive in 30 years! Other world lords' ships will not arrive in less than 100 years."

The realm lord spoke with a smug look on his face, but Xu Qing's temples twitched as he listened. In the end, he gritted his teeth and spent 0.1 Chaos Units to go through the official channels.

Delivering a package takes 30 years? Compared to 100 years, that's fast...

That sounds like a joke.

But this is the norm for the Tomato series.

Take the battle of geniuses a year from now, for example. It took a full six years from start to finish.

A mortal's lifetime is only enough here to send an interstellar express delivery or watch ten battles of geniuses.

Xu Qing chuckled; this was standard procedure.

Looking at those above the Immortal level, it's even more outrageous.

The destruction of the universe in six hundred trillion years is not too far away; when those strongest beings in the universe said this, it was as if it were about to happen.

Not to mention those who broke free from the Origin World, escaped the shackles, and became powerful beings of the Chaos Origin.

Even a Star Lord who hasn't yet become a lord can spend billions upon billions of years in seclusion.

Xu Qing calculated that this amount of time was enough for the Infinite Terror World to accumulate countless indescribable "times and ends".

The limit of a multiverse from birth to death is only one immeasurable kalpa, about 311.04 trillion years; those who transcend it accumulate for only a hundred epochs, and those who are indescribable accumulate for only a thousand epochs.

This cultivation system is extremely time-consuming in countless worlds, and can be called the trap system among trap systems, the waste of waste. But compared with the Tomato system, it is still a small fry.

Xu Qing sometimes wondered if these Tomato people had misread the time unit, or if they had torn out the calendar and replaced it with the geological time scale.

Other factions, fighting from beginning to end, could probably create something from nothing, evolve into the primordial world, and create an infinite universe with a single thought.

But in the same amount of time, there aren't enough talented individuals to become masters of the universe. After all, Luo Feng's last period of seclusion took six hundred billion years.

If we factor in a time acceleration of tens of millions of times, that would be sixty quadrillion years, which is too long to even begin to describe.

The neighboring game, Desolate Era, is exactly the same.

They say that the "time is coming" after hundreds of trillions of years, making it seem like they're about to die tomorrow. Just traveling from one realm to another would take hundreds of trillions of years.

In the Devouring Star universe, even the most ordinary immortal, if you were born in the Holy Land universe, could easily live for hundreds of billions of years.

As for the level of immortal power, well, even a higher-level cosmic venerable wouldn't even be considered cannon fodder.

Let's look at other worlds: In the Yangshen realm, even the strongest beings who have achieved the dual proofs of Heaven and Earth will not live past 129,600 years.

The Emperor of Shrouding the Heavens reigned for less than 20,000 years, while the worlds created by Immortal Kings could only survive for a few hundred thousand years.

The supreme being, having achieved perfect enlightenment, would die suddenly without sleeping for hundreds of thousands of years.

In the world of Tomato, these are at least at the limit of Void True God, or even at the level of Chaos God King.

But if he said that, in the Tomato World, let alone immortals and lower-level gods, he would be laughed at by the World Lord's Holy Domain.

For the powerful beings in other worlds, the time it takes to go from the beginning to stepping into a realm where they can destroy all worlds with a single thought is probably just the time it takes for the Tomato Man to take a nap or doze off while traveling.

Xu Qing couldn't help but sigh that the Tomato series was relatively normal in the early stages, but it became increasingly useless in the mid-to-late game.

It's not that their combat power is useless, but rather that the time it took to achieve that level of combat power is completely disproportionate, creating an absurd kind of beauty.

After finishing his reflection, Xu Qing returned the two bodies to the Zhutian Pavilion, then traced his fingertips through the void, revealing the virtual control panel of the Zhutian Pavilion.

Another monthly guest invitation.

As the silk threads plunged into the ocean of light, a message from a new guest appeared once again.

[Guest: Lin Lei]

[World of Origin: Hongmeng World]

[Strength: Tier 4, Ordinary]

[Items available for purchase: Lower-level Godhood, Mid-level Godhood, Higher-level Godhood, Black Jade Greatsword.]

Upon seeing who it was, Xu Qing stroked his chin with his fingertips, a smile playing on his lips.

"Speak of the devil and he appears."

This guy is a heavyweight.

The world of "Panlong" is definitely the one with the simplest conditions for immortality among most cultivation worlds—one can achieve immortality at the Saint Realm, which would be roughly equivalent to the initial stage of the Stellar Realm in "Swallowed Star." The power level of the higher gods in it is at most no more than the Universe Realm.

The next moment, a figure appeared inside the Pavilion of All Heavens. The person carried a black heavy sword on his back, his purple eyes swept over the display shelves full of rare treasures, and he raised an eyebrow slightly: "The Pavilion of All Heavens? It's quite interesting."

His gaze quickly settled on a C9-grade laser gun, and his pupils contracted slightly.

"A laser gun?" Linley looked at the annotation next to the weapon, his voice tinged with disbelief. "This description says... it can kill even a peak Upper God with a single shot?"

The peak of the Upper God realm is a Seven-Star Demon, a top-tier powerhouse even in Hell!
Lin Lei's heart skipped a beat. He looked up at Xu Qing and asked in a deep voice, "May I ask, Pavilion Master, how much does this weapon cost?"

“A hundred billion lower-level godhoods.” Xu Qing said calmly, “How many you want, I can give you.”

Lin Lei's pupils shrank dramatically: "So cheap?!"
