High Martial Arts: Liver Becomes the Master of the Universe

Chapter 231 Leader's Charisma! The Six Star System Alliance! The Competition Enters a Fierce Stage!
war!
When that last word, brimming with boundless fighting spirit, was uttered from Qin Feng's mouth, the entire universe seemed to freeze in that instant!
In the next instant, two terrifying energies that had accumulated to their peak suddenly exploded!

Boom——! ! !
Qin Feng and Caesar vanished from their spot at the same time.

They transformed into two streaks of light that could not be captured by the naked eye, one as black as eternal night and the other as dazzling as the holy dawn. With a speed that even spiritual power could not lock, they collided fiercely!
There was no probing, no roundabout approach.

From the very beginning, it was a fight to the death with all our might!
The towering, thousand-story-high [Undying Ancient Tower] that suppressed all ages, and the [Undying Holy Feather] that blotted out the sky and judged all things, these two immortal projections representing the highest level of stellar-level combat power in the current war zone, collided in the most savage way under the drive of their will!

The silver tower and the golden wings crushed and collided with each other, and with each contact, a terrifying energy storm capable of tearing apart a planet would erupt.

Countless mysterious runes flickered on the tower's surface, attempting to obliterate and suppress the holy feather;

Each feather on the Holy Feather transformed into an indestructible blade, frantically cutting through the tower's body, attempting to completely dismantle it!
The Star-Devouring Spear and the Knight's Holy Sword, these two divine weapons, clashed countless times in an instant.

Each collision would explode in the void with a burst of annihilating fire. The devouring power contained in the spear tip and the judgment law attached to the sword blade canceled each other out and annihilated each other, unleashing a terrifying aftershock that was enough to destroy the souls of ordinary Boundless Sea Warriors.

This is not just a battle of mental strength and physical power, but an ultimate struggle of blood and flesh!

The two fought with deadly moves from the very beginning!
puff!

Caesar's holy sword drew a perfect arc, so fast that it instantly severed Qin Feng's left arm.

But before he could expand his gains, Qin Feng's iron fist, which contained terrifying killing power, slammed into his chest, directly turning his magnificent golden armor and half of his body into a cloud of golden blood mist!
However, this fatal injury, which would instantly kill any being below the star level, seemed to them to be nothing more than a trivial scratch.

The severed left arm transformed into the purest life force particles the instant it left the body. As if drawn by an invisible force, it reassembled in the next instant, and a brand new, intact arm was reassembled in an instant!
The half of his body that had been blasted apart was also wriggling and regenerating at a speed visible to the naked eye within the golden blood mist, and was restored to its original state in the blink of an eye!
Their vitality has reached an unbelievable level.

As long as their soul projections imprinted deep within the subspace are not completely erased, the physical body is immortal and indestructible for stellar-level powerhouses!

Even if their entire bodies are completely annihilated and transformed into the most basic particles in the universe, they can still be reborn 100% in the next instant thanks to the mysterious connection between them and the subspace projection!

The battle between the two was so fierce that it caused the heavens and earth to collapse and the sun and moon to lose their light.

Each collision unleashed a light more dazzling than a supernova explosion, illuminating the dim depths of space with flickering brightness.

However, in reality, on the vast scale of the universe, the damage they caused is as insignificant as an ant trying to shake a tree, and is not worth mentioning at all.

Even the smallest star system has a diameter that is often measured in light-years.

With their current power at the initial stage of the stellar level, even if they unleashed their full power, the destructive range would be far from reaching such a massive scale.

As for those legends about destroying galaxies at will, it's too early for powerhouses of their level.

All they can do now is explore and travel safely within the terrifying heat and gravity of a star.

There is still an extremely long way to go from the stellar level to the legendary galactic level, which is said to be able to control the birth and death of galaxies.

"Qin Feng, your killing technique is quite impressive!"

After a fierce battle, Caesar retreated thousands of miles. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and his eyes, instead of being angry, were filled with appreciation and excitement at having met his match.

"kill--!"

In response, Qin Feng launched an even more ferocious offensive!
The battle thus entered its most brutal and protracted tug-of-war.

……

Time slipped away quietly amidst their relentless, bloody battle.

One year later.

After this earth-shattering duel lasted for a full year, this once sparsely populated outer star region had become teeming with people.

Warriors from the five major star systems 115-119 and the 99th star system rushed over from their respective star regions after learning the location of the duel.

In the safe space of outer space, far enough away from the battlefield, they spontaneously formed two distinct camps, silently observing this epic battle that would determine the fate of all of them.

At this moment, the ferocity of the battle in the center of the battlefield has far exceeded the imagination of all the spectators.

Qin Feng and Caesar have both exhausted all their knowledge.

They unleashed the killing techniques they had mastered, inherited from powerful kings, to their fullest potential.

Every move is deadly, every strike is soul-stealing; every attack is aimed at utterly annihilating the opponent.

Their power armor had long since shattered into cosmic dust after countless collisions and rebirths.

Both men were shirtless, engaging in the most bloody battle with their incredibly powerful bodies, comparable to divine metal.

"The peerless prodigy of the Ultramarines..."

"The unparalleled prodigy of the Holy Blood Angels War Legion..."

"Is this the true power of a stellar-level being? It's practically godlike!"

"This is terrifying... Star-level immortality, and the two are evenly matched."

Their respective inherited king-level killing techniques have all been cultivated to perfection. If they continue fighting like this, it's impossible to determine a winner.

"Hmm, it seems the best outcome is to achieve a draw..."

"Qin Feng, hang in there! You have to hold on!"

"Although they are immortal, the pain of each physical death is unbearable. The excruciating pain of limb regeneration is the same regardless of your cultivation level."

"..."

This breathtaking and bloody battle scene was clearly presented to every spectator.

Anyone could see just how desperately those two people on the battlefield were fighting.

Qin Feng and Caesar's minds had already been operating at their limit, calculating billions of possible offensive and defensive maneuvers in the blink of an eye.

The killing technique had been pushed to the limit of energy output; every attack was infused with all of his power.

Their constantly collapsing and rebuilding bodies caused them to endure excruciating pain from the depths of their souls over the past year, pain that even billions of deaths by ordinary people could not compare to.

For the warriors of star systems 115-119, Qin Feng was fighting for the future of all of them, risking his life for them!
For the warriors of the 99th star system, Caesar was also shedding his last drop of blood to wash away their debts and shame!

The battle continued endlessly.

The two had already fought to the point of madness. The asteroid belt, spanning tens of thousands of kilometers in the center of their battlefield, was even completely crushed because it could not withstand the aftershocks of their battle.

"It seems that Caesar did not use one of the Holy Blood Angels' trump cards, 'Black Fury'."

"Hmm... Qin Feng has also mastered the Limitless Battle Group's supreme cultivation technique, the 'Ten Perfect Hands,' to the basics."

In a prolonged battle, Qin Feng's recovery speed and energy reserves are actually faster than Caesar's. Without using Black Fury, Caesar will find it difficult to win.

"The cost of Black Fury is too high."

"Such a slight advantage is no longer of much significance in a battle of this level."

Their [Undying Tower] and [Undying Holy Feather] are roughly equal in strength in subspace projection, their physical strength is also almost the same, and their killing techniques are at the same level.

Moreover, stellar-level powerhouses are inherently immortal and indestructible…

Among the spectators, some seasoned experts began to conduct rational analysis, but they all eventually came to a despairing conclusion—this battle might really continue forever.

If they were to continue fighting without a time limit, the two would have to battle until the end of time.

"Hey, if that's the case, wouldn't we humans be truly invincible once we advance to the stellar level?"

"Theoretically, that's how it is. Once you successfully advance to the stellar level, you'll be immortal within the human race's territory."

"Then wouldn't our human race be able to sweep across the battlefield of all races? And wouldn't no alien race be able to kill us?"

"No.

If we were within the territory of our human race, protected by the subspace sanctuary created by the Emperor, even if our immortal projection were to shatter, it could be infinitely rebuilt within the sanctuary. The alien races would simply be unable to eradicate the star-level human race at its very root.

Even a powerful alien race at the King-level cannot kill any Stellar-level human within our human territory.

"However, the situation is different on the battlefield of all races, outside the territory of the human race."

Even if the physical body breaks down, it can still regenerate infinitely.

However, if the immortal projection is severely damaged and shattered by a powerful enemy in battle, it will be unable to be directly rebuilt because it has left the protective range of the subspace sanctuary. That would be a true demise…

"I see……"

Everyone suddenly realized.

"So, if all of us contestants break through to the stellar level and become immortal, how will this competition eliminate our opponents?"

"Yes, the competition rules have clear regulations on this."

Even a stellar-level powerhouse, whose indestructible projection can be infinitely reshaped and whose physical body is immortal, will automatically enter a "hunting phase" if their indestructible projection is shattered even once in battle.

"But this would make the battles between stellar-level beings far too protracted... like Qin Feng and Caesar, they could probably fight for a hundred years without a clear winner."

"yes!
There are now only about six hundred years left until the end of the tournament.

How will those of us who advance to the Stellar level compete for opportunities? Won't all our time be wasted on this endless battle?

"..."

The crowd was buzzing.

As all the martial artists watched the near-terrifying battle between Qin Feng and Caesar, they couldn't help but ponder the competition's format.

……

The battle continues relentlessly.

In this protracted and bloody battle that tested the limits of will, Qin Feng's understanding of the new life level of the stellar level became increasingly profound and clear with each collapse and reconstruction of his physical body.

"The so-called 'immortality' does not come without a price."

In the brief moment between his body being severed at the waist by Caesar's holy sword and instantly reassembled, a sudden realization flashed through Qin Feng's mind.

"Each time the physical body shatters, although it can be instantly reassembled with strong vitality and mental strength, the intense pain of being torn apart and the mental anguish that originates from the depths of the soul are real and unavoidable."

"The ability to be immortal and indestructible actually originates from the vast spiritual power that has been built into the 'Tower of Immortality', as well as the massive reserves of spiritual energy accumulated within the body."

"This also shows that 'immortality' has its limits."

Based on my current total mental strength and spiritual energy reserves, if my physical body were to continuously break down and regenerate more than 100,000 times, my body's own energy would be completely depleted.

At that point, it will be necessary to begin consuming the resources stored in the subspace unit to replenish energy and continue reshaping the physical body.

"If all resources are exhausted... that is true death."

While engaging in a fierce, lightning-fast exchange of blows with Caesar, Qin Feng calmly analyzed the situation in his mind.

"The Immortal Projection is actually the concrete manifestation of spiritual power."

According to the Canaan Sutra, the first step in cultivating to a stellar level is to continuously absorb resources to expand one's own immortal projection from its current height of a few light-years to the size of a true galaxy—that is, to reach a terrifying scale of at least 100,000 light-years.

"After completing the expansion in scale, it is necessary to undergo endless tempering and purification to refine the galaxy-sized, originally silvery-white, immortal projection into a dazzling pure gold."

"Ordinary spiritual energy is silvery-white. To forge it into pure gold is probably countless times more difficult than cultivating from a mortal to the stellar level."

Qin Feng's mind was clear.

In this brutal battle that would have driven any spectator to despair, he even managed to spare a portion of his mind to practice the Canaan Sutra.

This terrifying ability to multitask was as simple and natural to him as breathing, given his already vast and boundless mental power.

Combining the detailed records in the Canaan Sutra with the previous explanation from Instructor Yu Han, the complete cultivation path from the stellar level to the galactic level has been fully revealed to Qin Feng without reservation.

And his goal thus became incredibly clear—that is, to complete this seemingly unattainable path in the remaining approximately six hundred years of the competition and successfully advance to become a true galaxy-level powerhouse!
This was the standard set for him by his master, "Swallowing Heaven King," when he accepted him as a disciple.

According to Qin Feng's precise calculations, if the next six hundred years can proceed as smoothly as the first four hundred years, and enough top-tier resources can be obtained, then this seemingly impossible goal may actually be achievable.

After all, any resource point within the war zone, if placed in the vast universe, would be a top-tier "opportunity" that could change the fate of the "protagonist".

In this uniquely advantageous environment, it is indeed possible to achieve in a thousand years what ordinary geniuses cannot achieve even in tens of thousands of years.

Having figured all this out, Qin Feng's mind became increasingly calm, while his attacks became increasingly ferocious and precise!

His figure and Caesar's figure were like two intertwined neutron stars, constantly colliding, separating, and colliding again.

Each collision caused vast swathes of the asteroid belt, spanning millions of kilometers, to be annihilated.

Under the intense real-world training, Qin Feng's understanding and mastery of the core killing technique, "Devouring Heaven Fist," were improving at a visible and rapid pace.

We are getting closer and closer to that legendary realm of "control".

His spiritual power has long since grown from the mere "cup" when he first comprehended the "Heaven-Swallowing Fist Technique" to the towering "Immortal Tower" that now stands several light-years tall.

His thinking ability and mental calculation ability have increased by hundreds of millions of times compared to back then!
The "Heaven-Devouring Fist Technique," which was incredibly complex and mysterious to him back then, has now become clear and transparent, with no secrets left.

They were just one opportunity away from that final goal.

And this life-or-death battle with Caesar was the best catalyst!
The battle, under everyone's watchful eyes, continued for a full eight years.

One day in the eighth year, just as Qin Feng unleashed the Star Devouring Spear once again, and the tip of the spear was about to touch Caesar's Holy Sword, he had a sudden inspiration, and all the insights and accumulations in his heart were completely integrated at that moment!
【The Devouring Heaven Fist Technique (Mastery)】

Om-!
At this moment, the Star-Devouring Spear in Qin Feng's hand suddenly became incredibly strange!

The oppressive mental energy, which was originally just attached to the gun and was like a black hole, seemed to break through some kind of boundary and become real in this instant!
Around the pitch-black spear tip, light was distorted and space was swallowed up. A tiny but real point of gravity flashed and disappeared on the spear tip!
This is the sign that the "Devouring Heaven Fist" has reached the "Mastery" level, and it also means that this level seven killing technique is infinitely close to the legendary level eight killing technique!

There is a world of difference between an eighth-level killing technique and a seventh-level killing technique.

Its hallmark, besides requiring more complex mental energy-psychic energy aggregation modules that need to be processed in parallel every second, is more importantly a qualitative change in the intensity of "mental energy interference with reality"!

The eighth-level killing technique can use the vast spiritual power that has been shaped into an indestructible projection to interfere with and even distort the real world in a more powerful way!
This powerful interference is also known as "intention"!
Simply put, if a level-one killing technique is called "Ninefold Thunder Blade," then the so-called "Thunder Blade" is merely a metaphor to describe the extremely fast speed of the blade and the overwhelming force of the attack, like thunder.

However, if there were an eighth-level killing technique also named "Ninefold Thunder Blade," then it would no longer be a metaphor!
Instead, it can actually use powerful mental energy to interfere with the real universe and form real lightning with even greater power!
With each strike, countless bolts of lightning flashed and billions of electric sparks mingled!

This "intention" generated by spiritual power can not only inflict devastating damage on the enemy's physical body, but also directly penetrate defenses, causing great harm to the enemy's spiritual essence and soul!
Each attack severs not only the physical body but also the soul!

The moment Qin Feng's "Devouring Heaven Fist Technique" broke through to the "Control" realm, the entire battlefield situation underwent a dramatic reversal!

Each thrust of Qin Feng's spear carried a trace of real devouring power, not only dimming the light of Caesar's holy sword, but also making him feel that his spiritual essence was being constantly pulled and torn apart by that strange power!
He was starting to be completely suppressed!
"Great! Qin Feng has broken through!"

"It's mastery of the realm! That power... is already infinitely close to the 'intent' of an eighth-level killing technique!"

"The tip of Qin Feng's spear is not a black hole, but a huge gravitational source, formed by the interference of the Immortal Tower."

"..."

The warriors from star systems 115-119 who were watching the battle erupted in a long-suppressed, earth-shaking cheer!

"Mastery of the Realm!"

In the center of the battlefield, Caesar's golden pupils contracted sharply, and for the first time, an extremely solemn expression appeared on his face.

But instead of showing the slightest fear, he burst into laughter, his laughter filled with fighting spirit.

"Qin Feng, you truly live up to your reputation! But I might not be much worse than you!"

"Holy Sword—!"

Caesar roared and pushed his power to an unprecedented limit.

The killing technique he practiced was inherited from the supreme king-level expert in his battle group—the "King of Angels," whose core killing move was called "Holy Sword"!
Under Qin Feng's fierce and relentless attacks, which were imbued with a "devouring intent," Caesar struggled to hold on.

His body was being torn apart more and more frequently, and the radiance of the undying projection began to flicker.

However, even in this desperate situation where he was completely suppressed, he persevered for a full year!

Finally, in the ninth year of the duel, he also broke through his own limits and pushed the "Holy Sword" killing technique to the level of "control"!
hum!
The golden knight's holy sword also began to emanate a sacred, pure "holy fire" that seemed capable of judging all the evils in the world!
The two became evenly matched once again!
"Caesar is mighty!"

"Win it back! We must win it back!"

This time, the warriors of Galaxy No. 99 erupted in a thunderous cheer!
The battle continued fiercely for the last year.

Ultimately, when the tenth year limit was reached in the last second, the two still could not determine a winner.

The "mandatory duel order" has ended.

[Duel Result: Draw]

[Caesar's conditions and rewards for a draw: Both sides survive at the end of the time limit. The reward is: eradicate the debts of all warriors in the -99-th star system.]

[Caesar's reward has been distributed]

[Qin Feng and Fang drew; no reward, no punishment]

When this notification appeared on everyone's jade tokens simultaneously, the martial artists watching the battle instantly erupted into a tremendous uproar.

However, when Qin Feng and Caesar, their blood-soaked figures, slowly ceased their battle and retreated to their respective camps, all the discussions instantly fell silent.

Instead, there was absolute silence and heartfelt respect.

For martial artists in star systems 115-119, Qin Feng fought relentlessly for the past ten years, his physical body shattering and reforming countless times, enduring unimaginable pain.

In the end, Qin Feng fought to a draw, and they avoided the punishment of defeat, successfully preserving their hard-won victory.

As for the warriors of Galaxy No. 99, Caesar also used his blood and will to wash away the huge debt of 1B contribution points for all of them, making him a well-deserved savior!
At this moment, Qin Feng and Caesar had reached an unprecedented and unparalleled peak of prestige within their respective camps!

Qin Feng and Caesar slowly retracted their respective immortal projections.

The two were separated by thousands of miles, gazing at each other silently, their eyes piercing through the void, as if they could see the will deep within each other's souls.

The next moment, a wave of mental energy filled with complex emotions emanated from Caesar's sea of ​​consciousness and was precisely transmitted to Qin Feng's heart.

"Qin Feng, this battle may seem like a draw, but in reality, I have lost."

Caesar's mental energy fluctuations were devoid of any pretense, filled with sincerity.

He continued, "If you have this idea in mind, then the command of the alliance can be completely handed over to you."

Although he was still unwilling to accept defeat, Caesar knew very well that he had lost.

Outsiders might not be able to see it, but he himself knew it perfectly well.

In the year after Qin Feng broke through to the "Control" realm, although his offensive was fierce, he always left a sliver of hope.

If Qin Feng had truly pursued him relentlessly, unleashing a terrifying attack imbued with the intent of "devouring," relentlessly annihilating him, then he would never have survived until his breakthrough. But Qin Feng did not.

He was more like feeding him advice in an extreme way.

He was pushed to the brink of life and death time and time again, and the terrifying pressure forced him to unleash all his potential.

Therefore, he was able to achieve a breakthrough in such a short period of time, elevating his killing technique to the level of "mastery".

This magnanimity and composure transcends the outcome of the game itself.

Faced with Caesar's candor, Qin Feng slowly shook his head and responded with his own mental power:

“Caesar, everyone has their own expertise. There’s no need for us to have an absolute, sole command.”

"After all, our core goal has been consistent from beginning to end—that is, to seize as many resources as possible in this resource-rich war zone, and to maximize our own cultivation before the end of the competition, without wasting a single precious moment."

Qin Feng's tone was equally sincere: "To be honest, I have no knowledge of politics or military affairs."

I am a pure martial artist.

On the contrary, it is you who were able to integrate the disorganized 99th galaxy, which shows your knowledge in this area.

Therefore, I think we can make decisions together through mutual consultation.

After all, our core interests are completely aligned.

"..."

Caesar was visibly taken aback by Qin Feng's unexpected answer.

A complex and enigmatic light flashed in his golden pupils.

He had assumed that, given Qin Feng's strength, he would readily take over the leadership of the alliance.

Unexpectedly, the other party would so frankly admit their shortcomings.

"Qin Feng, that's true. But what if we have irreconcilable differences in future decisions?"

Caesar pressed for an answer.

Upon hearing this, Qin Feng smiled nonchalantly, his mental energy fluctuations filled with trust and magnanimity: "It's very simple."

I have complete faith in your 'knowledge'.

If we disagree on matters outside my expertise, such as politics, military affairs, or command, I will follow your advice completely.

"Ha ha ha ha--"

Caesar was taken aback for a moment, then burst into uncontrollable laughter.

"Qin Feng, Qin Feng! You have more of a leader's charisma than I imagined."

Although I hate to admit it, what you said does... imply that you're treating me like one of your commanders.

"This is just me acknowledging my own shortcomings."

Qin Feng calmly denied it.

"Haha, a great leader doesn't need to be omnipotent, but he must have personal charisma that can win the hearts and minds of his followers."

Caesar's smile faded, a strange light flickering in his golden eyes. He gazed intently at Qin Feng and spoke in a serious tone,

"You really have captured my heart."

I am willing to serve as your advisor and commander for the remainder of the major battle zones.

This proud and arrogant genius, who not long ago was thinking of competing with Qin Feng for the leadership of the alliance, now acted arrogantly and refused to mention forming an equal alliance with Qin Feng and discussing matters together. Instead, he took the initiative to volunteer to be Qin Feng's "subordinate".

This sudden change surprised Qin Feng greatly.

On Caesar's incomparably handsome face, his long golden hair swayed slightly in the air, and his deep eyes were even "smoothed".

This sudden, brotherly gaze startled Qin Feng, who instinctively took several steps back.

"..."

Upon seeing this, Caesar coughed awkwardly, his expression instantly becoming extremely serious and solemn.

He stepped forward, past Qin Feng, and stood alone in front of all the warriors of the six star systems.

He surveyed the millions of gazes below, some filled with awe, others with doubt. His voice, amplified by his spiritual power, resonated clearly in the hearts of every martial artist, like a resounding bell.

"Everyone!"

"In the previous 'betting agreement,' Qin Feng made a comeback and successfully advanced to the Stellar level ahead of me."

"And in the ten-year deadly battle that just ended, he was one step ahead of me, breaking through to the 'control' level of the killing technique inherited from the King.

"To this, I, Caesar, am utterly convinced!"

"The struggle for opportunity is simply a matter of each side relying on its own methods, there's not much more to say about it."

In the previous century of war, neither of us used any truly insidious or despicable tactics.

On this battlefield where geniuses gather, I believe we should all cherish each other and respect one another!

"You have all just witnessed the intensity and time required for battles between stellar-level powerhouses."

If we don't want to waste the remaining precious six hundred years on this meaningless internal strife and resource grabbing, then we should form an alliance!
After a century of bloody battles, I believe you have all come to fully acknowledge each other's strength!

Upon hearing this, all the martial artists present, whether from the five major star systems or the 99th star system, fell into a thoughtful silence.

Caesar's words resonated with everyone.

It really is so.

They have been fighting each other for a century.

During the final, most brutal period, both sides even saw the emergence of "hunting" suicide squads where members were willing to sacrifice themselves to create opportunities for their comrades.

To say that amidst such blood and fire, there wasn't even a shred of respect or sympathy for the enemy would be a lie.

"Caesar!"

Just then, a martial artist from the original 118th star system stepped forward and questioned, "Someone from your 99th star system used that despicable competition item that can lock the respawn point—it's extremely insidious! What do you have to say about that?!"

"Those two, Yan Hu and Yu Hai, have already been eliminated by Qin Feng himself."

Caesar's answer was concise and powerful.

Upon hearing this, the martial artist who had asked the question was immediately speechless.

He opened his mouth, but ultimately retreated silently back into the crowd and said nothing more.

Caesar continued:

"Qin Feng and I should be the two martial artists who broke through to the Stellar level in the entire war zone."

"This first-mover advantage is enormous; it's enough to change the entire course of the battle!"

"Therefore, I hereby propose that the original 99th star system, together with the five major star systems from 115 to 119, formally unite!"
From then on, we called it the 'Six-Star Alliance'!
Within the alliance, there is no hierarchy among members; they share only one common goal—to conquer all other star systems and plunder all their resources!

"Once the snowball starts rolling, the resources of other star systems will be more than enough for all of us to share!"
At that time, all the spoils will be under the unified command of me and Qin Feng.

At the very least, we are both now at the stellar level, and we would never try to steal the resources you need for your current cultivation.

What do you all think?!

Caesar's speech was highly inflammatory.

Everyone fell into a brief silence, their minds racing as they weighed the pros and cons of this move.

Soon, everyone came to the answer.

For them, this matter is entirely beneficial and without any drawbacks!
If we don't conquer other star systems, then uniting together is indeed of little use.

But if they really joined forces to conquer other star systems and plunder massive amounts of resources... just thinking about that scene is enough to get anyone's blood pumping!

When resources are plentiful, there will be no more disputes.
Moreover, just as Caesar said, Qin Feng and he, as the two earliest breakthrough stellar-level powerhouses in the current war zone, are invincible at this point in time!

As for the previous century of bloodshed... to be honest, everyone was fighting for resources.

Those who actually resorted to underhanded tactics have already been eliminated.

Such fair and square battles tend to evoke more respect than hatred.

Soon, the martial artists present all expressed their agreement.

In the private channels of the six star systems, the opinion solicitation on this matter received almost unanimous approval.

Following this, under the joint operation of the high-level personnel of both sides, the private channels representing the five major star systems 115-119 and the 99th star system in the subspace were officially combined into a brand new and larger private network.

The galactic barrier that had stood between them for over a century was thus completely removed.

Qin Feng stepped forward, facing all the martial artists who had become his "allies," and said in a deep voice:

"Now that an alliance has been formed, there must be some rules."

"There is only one rule: Alliance members are absolutely prohibited from fighting each other for resources for any reason!"

All spoils of war must be subject to unified allocation.

On this point, Caesar and I can assure you that we have absolutely no selfish motives.

Qin Feng paused at this point.

Because he knew that simply saying he had no selfish motives would not be believed by anyone and would only invite ridicule and suspicion.

Qin Feng continued:
"Imagine that the star-level resources of a galaxy are indeed limited, and everyone has to compete with each other for advancement."

But what if... we could successfully conquer dozens of star systems? Or hundreds?
By then, we will all have inexhaustible resources!
You need not worry about any unequal distribution at all!
-
With the establishment of the "Six-Star Alliance," the cosmic void that had witnessed a decade of bloody battles finally ushered in a long-awaited period of peace.

Millions of warriors who were once mortal enemies now looked at each other with complex expressions, while simultaneously casting their gazes, a mixture of awe and admiration, toward the two figures in front of their respective camps.

The hatred and antagonism that had been suppressed in their hearts for over a century seemed to become less important in the face of absolute interests and a grander goal.

The warriors did not linger any longer, transforming into streaks of light and teleporting back to their respective temporary bases via subspace to lick their wounds and recover their strength.

At the same time, they quietly awaited the impending thunderous storm that would be enough to change the entire war zone.

Soon, this star field returned to its former tranquility.

Qin Feng and Caesar exchanged a glance, both seeing a hint of relief in each other's eyes.

Without uttering a word, they moved swiftly and vanished from their spot.

When they reappeared, they had arrived on a planet teeming with life.

This planet was a backup resource point in the previous 117 star system. It is beautiful with its mountains and rivers, lush greenery, and babbling streams flowing through the valleys. The fresh air is filled with the fragrance of soil and vegetation.

Compared to the cold, lifeless, and murderous vacuum of space, this place is like paradise.

The two stood side by side atop a towering peak, overlooking the magnificent landscape below, where clouds drifted and the mountains and rivers stretched out before them.

After a long silence, Caesar spoke first, breaking the tranquility.

"Qin Feng, what do you think of this alliance we just formed?"

He turned his head to the side.

"Fragile."

Qin Feng's answer was simple, direct, and to the point.

He gazed at the distant horizon and said in a steady voice, "This so-called alliance is merely a product of the two of us, temporarily put together by relying on the personal prestige we have accumulated in the recent battle and promising each other great benefits in conquering the outside world and plundering resources."

Its foundation is not solid.

"If we cannot break through the current situation in a very short time, successfully plunder resources from other star systems, and show everyone the tangible benefits..."

This seemingly powerful alliance will soon crumble.

"Yes."

Caesar's gaze also turned to the distance.

He nodded and said with deep emotion, "A group of martial artists without a common belief cannot walk side by side forever."

In the vast expanse of space, the reason why those space warriors of the Empire were able to serve for thousands, tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of years on the brutal battlefields of all races, fighting for the survival of humanity...

What I relied on was never temporary gain, but the faith that had long been imprinted deep within my soul…

“Those who were not steadfast in their faith all rebelled.”

Qin Feng shrugged and interrupted Caesar's reflections with a very realistic statement.

"Ah."

Caesar nodded noncommittally, then pulled himself out of his thoughts and asked, "So, Qin Feng, what do you plan to do?"

Do you have a specific plan for your next steps?

If you don't have any ideas yet, I can provide a preliminary plan.

"I've had some thoughts on this."

Qin Feng did not feign modesty; he began to articulate his strategic vision in a clear and logical manner.

"First, we should identify a few core fundamental points."

First: Distribution system. We can immediately introduce a system similar to the exchange of battle merits and contributions.

All spoils of war are stored in a unified warehouse, and members can openly and transparently exchange them for the resources they need in the alliance's private channel based on their battle merits and contributions.

The fair distribution of benefits is the absolute foundation for maintaining this alliance.

"Second: We should identify a target star system that needs to be attacked as soon as possible."

The choice of this goal should not be made blindly.

By analyzing the 'hunting period' coordinates of the eliminated martial artists and combining this with the official tournament leaderboard, we can create a preliminary strength ranking of all the star systems surrounding us, and then select the weakest one as our first target.

"Third: Pay attention to hidden items in the event."

In this regard, we may need to rely on you more. Frankly, I'm not very familiar with the rules governing these numerous types of event items.

"Fourth: The follow-up processing of the galaxies we have successfully conquered."

My suggestion is to thoroughly eliminate all the martial artists within its ranks.

Resources in peripheral galaxies are limited, and we cannot afford to divide our forces to defend them.

If our strength can achieve absolute dominance, then we should strive to 'clear out' the entire star system, eliminating all martial artists.

Fifth: the rapid acquisition of resources within the galaxy after a successful conquest.

This requires us to prepare in advance, quickly survey the entire galaxy immediately after the battle ends, construct a complete resource point map, and establish an efficient allocation and collection system.

With our current mental strength, we are perfectly capable of dedicating a portion of our attention to building and maintaining such a private domain system.

Listen to Qin Feng explain the five interconnected and logically clear strategic plans one by one.

Caesar's expression gradually shifted from initial calm to a hint of surprise, and finally to a genuine smile of appreciation.

"Yes, what you said is very correct, absolutely correct."

Caesar smiled and nodded, not holding back his praise: "I knew you weren't just a fool who knew how to act recklessly."

As he spoke, he raised his hand and tapped lightly on his personal terminal.

A complex and massive three-dimensional star map was instantly projected in front of the two of them.

This star map clearly marks the macroscopic structure of the entire war zone, encompassing a full ten thousand star systems.

Around the area where they were, there were many moving red dots flashing with different lights.

"This is a martial artist under my command. Some time ago, he voluntarily entered the 'hunting period' and used the brief full-map vision after his rebirth to draw a map of the distribution of forces in the surrounding star field for me."

Caesar pointed to the star map and explained, "Combined with the official points rankings, we can clearly see that the weakest system around us right now is this 120th star system."

According to intelligence, the strongest being within their galaxy has only just advanced to the Boundless Sea realm…

His finger lightly traced across the star map, outlining a clear route of attack.

"Moreover, you see, these eleven star systems, from number 120 to number 130, are geographically connected, and their overall strength is not very strong."

This is a perfect target for us to make our first move.

Once we've taken them all, we can completely connect the main bases of the six star systems with this newly occupied territory, forming a solid, vast strategic depth that allows us to advance or retreat at will..."

"As for the hidden items in the competition that you mentioned, well, that really is up to fate."

Caesar's tone carried a hint of helplessness, "If you're lucky, you might even find it by passing by a meteorite."

If you're unlucky, you might not find it even if you turn the entire galaxy upside down.

Although the rules state that each star system has a hidden item, these are not within the regular detection range of the identity jade token.

Qin Feng's gaze fell on the star field marked by Caesar, representing the "easy target," and a sharp glint flashed in his eyes.

"Okay, let's start with Galaxy 120!"

"In one fell swoop, we will devour all eleven star systems."

"These resources are enough to stabilize the alliance. They are also enough to allow us to take another step forward at the stellar level."
