Swallowing the Stars: Ten Thousand Times Return for Taking on Disciples

Chapter 373 Cosmic Ship Token, Spirit Feather Kills the King!

[You have bestowed upon your disciple the True Path King Ancestor Divine Cult Inheritance Token, receiving a thousandfold return; you have also obtained the Cosmic Ship Black Token.]

Upon hearing the system's notification, Lu Qingshan showed a hint of surprise.

He really didn't expect it to be this.

The Spaceship Token is a valuable item. Possessing the token not only grants certain permissions when exploring inside the Spaceship, but also allows access to exclusive special spaces within the Spaceship.

The Cosmic Ship is one of the three most dangerous places in the Cosmic Sea. Countless powerful people have explored it, but very few have the Cosmic Ship Token.

Even the lowest-grade black token is usually only obtainable by powerful universe lords like the Chaos City Lord.

This thing is on a completely different level from the Beast God Inheritance Token, and is definitely not just a thousand times better.

I wonder if there are any other things left in that special space behind the token that came from the golden finger.

The special space of the Cosmic Boat exists permanently and is not exclusive to any particular era of reincarnation. However, the powerful beings in the Cosmic Sea can generally only survive for three cosmic reincarnations. Therefore, there is a high probability that the special space of the Cosmic Boat contains the legacies of other powerful beings.

Some of these traditions are even older than those of the two holy sites.

Of course, even without any inheritance, having such a cultivation space in the perilous spaceship is still quite good!

Lu Qingshan carefully put away the deep, ancient token with dark brown patterns.

For him, the black token was enough.

If he were given a higher-grade cyan or silver token, it's hard to say how many years it would take to gain entry.

After all, the higher the level of the token, the closer the special space is to the core of the spaceship. The area where the silver token is located is probably inaccessible even to the strongest beings in the universe.

The area where the cyan token is located also requires the strongest individual to enter.

The black token looked a bit lower-class, which was just right for him.

"When my strength improves in the future, perhaps I can go and see if there are any surprising treasures in the special space corresponding to this token... or perhaps I can entrust it to the Ghost King's clone to explore."

Lu Qingshan pondered for a moment.

He then contacted his second senior brother, Venerable Dragon Whale, explained the situation, and asked him to return to the Initial Universe a year later and bring True King Yan to the Ancestral God Cult.

The Dragon Whale Venerable has been to the Ancestral God Sect and left the coordinates of the Divine Kingdom outside the Ancestral God Sect, which can be directly teleported there. If the True King were to go by himself, the journey alone would take a long time and there would be certain risks.

There might be cosmic venerables from the demon race, insect race, etc. lying in ambush on the inevitable road. After all, the value of a single inheritance token is enough to make a cosmic venerable envious.

This situation is very rare and generally won't happen, but it can't be completely avoided, since Blood King had this idea before.

……

Yanji Continent, a remote region, 30,000 kilometers underground.

Jin Jian, clad in black rattan armor, is currently communicating with Ling Yu in the virtual universe.

“Junior Sister Lingyu, I have already completed my military merit mission. Are you sure you don’t need my help? Your military merit still requires at least killing a beginner-level King. Without my help, it will be difficult for you to complete your goal.”

In the virtual universe, Jin Jian, still dressed in flowing white robes, stood with his hands behind his back, his golden sword gleaming, and spoke calmly.

Opposite him, a girl with long purple hair remained unmoved, shook her head and said, "Junior Brother Jin Jian, you don't need to worry about me. I can complete my own military merit mission by myself. I have already found my target. If you can't wait, you can go back first... After all, your military merit mission is only one-tenth of mine, so it is normal to complete it so quickly."

Upon hearing this, Jin Jian's face immediately fell.

He only learned of this news recently; Lingyu's military merit requirements were ten times higher than his.

This made him very unhappy, as he felt it was discrimination from the Virtual Universe company.

Why is Jin Jian's military merit tier lower?
He's shivering and cold; when will he be able to stand up again?

"Alright, Junior Sister Lingyu, I will not leave Yanji Continent for the time being. If you need any help, you can contact me at any time. However, I will wait for you for a hundred years. If you have not completed the mission after a hundred years, I will leave first."

Jin Jian spoke calmly, and then left the virtual universe.

"Hmph! You think you're something special just because you've earned the title of Purple Feather King? Others may not know, but I know your background. You can bully Marquises, but dealing with Kings? You're just daydreaming without my help."

Jin Jian took out a piece of silk cloth and wiped the jet-black sword.

Over the years, countless toxins have been applied to his golden sword, and now the various toxins are mixed together so that even he can't distinguish them.

He was not in a hurry to leave.

I mainly wanted to see Lingyu make a fool of herself.

Let's see how she deals with a prince.
Which of the kings among the alien races wasn't incredibly shrewd? Killing them would be no easy task. Over the years, he had tried to bully the newly appointed kings, but each time he failed and almost lost his own life.

He had spent far more time training on the battlefields beyond the realm than Ling Yu, and was far more experienced than Ling Yu. He simply couldn't believe that Ling Yu could do what he couldn't.

……

The Yanji Continent is located approximately one light-year away from here.

Lingyu also left the virtual universe.

In the battlefield outside the domain, one must be careful at all times, and there is no need to leave even a trace of consciousness in the virtual universe.

Here, you only need to pay attention to the news from the military merit system.

"Ding ding, this is Star Illusion King... Allies who need teleportation can DM me, 10 million Chaos Yuan per teleportation."

Lingyu glanced at the message.

Then, they carefully took out a test tube containing a black liquid.

Fimor Venom!

Lingyu was extremely cautious, not only because this thing was too dangerous, but also because it represented almost all of her income from the extraterritorial battlefield over the years.

If this job goes wrong, all the spoils she's accumulated over the years will be wiped out.

Conversely, if successful, not only can they complete the military merit tasks required by the company, but they can also reap more benefits.

It's all about gambling.

Ling Yu planned to take a gamble before leaving. If successful, he would leave immediately and never return to the outer battlefield. If he failed, he would stay away from the Yanji Continent and the Seventh Battlefield, and go to other places to hide his identity and slowly accumulate military merits again.

Lingyu carefully applied Femoro venom to a legendary sword, and only breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the venom slowly seep into it.

At least it wasn't wasted.

Then she decisively contacted Star Illusion King.

A moment later, a faint spatial fluctuation came, and the figure of Star Illusion King appeared in front of Ling Yu. The two looked similar, both having wings like feathers, and looked like sisters.

"Purple Feather King, is that you? Where do you need to go?" Star Illusion King clearly recognized this human king who had risen to power in the last thousand years. There were very few female kings on the Yanji Continent. She usually liked to keep an eye on the group chat of the military merit system and often saw people discussing each other.

“Star Illusion King, please take me to the side of the Zerg Alliance Soul Chaser King. The coordinates are… If I successfully kill him, take me away immediately. If I fail, take me away as well. I will pay you 20 million Chaos Units,” Ling Yu said.

"Forehead."

Upon hearing this, Star Illusion King was momentarily stunned, as if he had heard these words before.

“King Ziyu, that Soul Chaser King is a high-ranking King and a Soul Master. Your strength is too weak. If you are hit by his soul attack, you may perish on the spot, and I will not be able to save you!”

After saying this, Star Illusion King was completely stunned.

too familiar.

Isn't this her conversation with that mysterious, powerful Gray King?

Back then, the Grey-Clad King also chose a high-ranking Soul Master to take action, and she had given the same advice. As it turned out, the opponent was an invincible being at the King level.

Could it be that this Purple Feather King... is also an invincible being who has been granted the title of King?

"Star King, there's no need to worry about my safety."

Lingyu spoke up.

"Alright, if you're no match for me, I'll try my best to get you away." Star Illusion King nodded, not refusing.

She only earned enough for travel expenses.

She won't interfere too much with what the client wants to do.

Star Illusion King's transparent wings trembled slightly, and soon a divine power enveloped Lingyu. Lingyu did not resist, letting the divine power carry her away.

Swish!
The two figures vanished from their original spot and appeared a second later not far from the Zerg Alliance's powerful Soul Chaser King.

For this plan, Lingyu went to great lengths to obtain the coordinates of the Soul Chaser King.

"Star King! What do you want to do?"

Star Illusion King is an old acquaintance of the Yanji Continent, and many powerful alien races know her.

As soon as the two landed, a huge body emerged from the cave. The Soul Chaser King's body resembled a white pupa, with spirals all over its body, but it moved very quickly.

His gaze was fixed on Star Illusion King, completely ignoring Purple Feather King beside him.

"King of Souls, your opponent is me!"

With a flick of its purple wings, Ling Yu charged toward the Soul Chaser King.

"The Purple Feather King of the human race, barely a low-level king, dares to attack me! Don't think that just because the Star Illusion King is there, I can't kill you!"

While carefully defending against Star Illusion King, King Chaser was secretly delighted to see Purple Feather King charging towards him. If the two of them attacked together, it would be troublesome, but if the weaker Purple Feather King attacked first, it would be suicide.

"Die!"

The white divine body of the Soul Chaser King burst into flames, instantly burning itself. Then he opened his mouth, revealing fleshy spikes within its enormous opening, resembling a gaping maw of abyss. A phantom divine power, like a fishing net, completely blocked the Purple Feather King's path.

"You've already made me burn my divine body, Purple Feather King!" Seeing Purple Feather King trapped in his own soul illusion, Soul Chaser King laughed loudly, and his illusory divine power transformed into a sharp sword, stabbing towards the Spirit Feather who was trapped in the illusion.

"careful!"

Star Illusion King's expression changed slightly, and he quickly reminded him.

This Purple Feather King is too arrogant. Even with his astonishing will, he didn't even burn his divine body in the face of the Soul Chaser King's killing move. I'm afraid...

However, an astonishing scene unfolded.

Just as the soul attack struck Purple Feather King squarely, a faint purple light flashed across his body.

Immediately... the Soul Chaser King, who had launched the attack, screamed and fell to the ground. His illusory divine power seemed to be completely frozen by an invisible force.

"You're the one who should be dead!"

Ling Yu no longer held back, her speed reaching its limit, instantly arriving beside the Soul Chaser King, and then thrusting her sword towards his weak point.

Although most of the sword strike was blocked by his battle armor, the Soul Chaser King was unable to mobilize his divine power to assist him at this moment, greatly reducing his defense. The sword still pierced into his divine body.

Ling Yu's face lit up with joy, and she quickly retreated!

“No…ah…”

Even a mere 0.1 gram of Femore venom entering his body would be more than something a high-ranking King could withstand, especially since he was currently suffering from severe soul damage.

Under the corrosive effects of Femore's venom, the Soul King's divine body rapidly weakened. When it reached a critical point, with a loud bang, he chose to self-destruct!
Ling Yu quickly collected the treasures left behind by the Soul Chaser King, then looked at the Star Illusion King and said, "Take me away."

"it is good!"

Although Star Illusion King was surprised, he did not forget his job. Before Soul Chaser King's helpers arrived, he teleported away with Ling Yu.

After killing the Soul Chaser King, Ling Yu exceeded the quota for military merit.

The news that she had killed the Soul Chaser King quickly spread to others.

In his final moments, the Soul Chaser spread the news that he had been killed by the Purple Feather King, along with the information that Lingyu possessed a soul treasure.

The news sent shockwaves through the entire Seventh Battlefield...

A treasure of the soul... that is something that even the most powerful beings in the universe crave. How could a mere Prince Ziyu, who is only at the initial stage of the King-level, possess it?
One by one, powerful figures at the peak of the King-level realm, the limit of the King-level realm, and even those close to invincibility, were teleported from various high-level areas of the Seventh Battlefield, frantically searching for the location of the Purple Feather King.

After completing her mission, Lingyu immediately used plant life teleportation to leave the area.

The Yanji Continent lies 30,000 kilometers underground.

Jin Jian was wiping his precious sword. The sword, which had been soaked in venom and turned black, was gradually regaining its luster and returning to its original appearance.

After cleaning the giant sword, Jin Jian inquired about the Purple Feather King.

Then he was stunned!
"How is that possible? The Purple Feather King killed the Soul Chaser King? That was a high-ranking Soul Master, I would run away if I saw him."

"The Purple Feather King possesses a soul treasure... The Mechanical Race's Death King, the Zerg Race's Queen Nan Cheng, the Demon Race's Tower Dragon King, the Lone Ranger Xuanmu King, and the Human Race's Seven Sword Kings... Have all of them come to the Yanji Continent?"

"Damn it, this Yanji Continent is too dangerous right now."

After not checking military merit reports for several days, Jin Jian discovered that the outside world had completely changed. One after another, those at the limit of the King level and those at the invincible King level were flocking to the Yanji Continent. If he were to run into them on the street, he could be slapped to death. What kind of training was that?

"Run away!"

Without even bothering to give his sword a final polish, the golden sword opened the detector and carefully explored the area. Finding no one else around, it immediately had the Moyun Vine activate the divine kingdom teleportation to leave.
