Swallowing the Stars: Starting with the Steel of the Heart

After saying goodbye to Mingyu, Xiang Bei directly used the teleportation function of the virtual universe to arrive at the Black Dragon Mountain branch of the Virtual Universe Company in the virtual universe.

The Virtual Universe Company is a large corporation, with branches in various large and medium-sized universe nations in addition to its headquarters.

Elite geniuses like Xiang Bei, who have already signed contracts with the branches, also have their own residences in each branch.

For example, Xiang Bei also has a villa covering thousands of square meters in the Heilongshan branch as his private territory.

In addition, the Black Dragon Mountain branch's virtual universe also has various places to assist in cultivation, such as the Trial Tower, which is similar to the Genius Battle; the Heart Training Path, which is similar to the Illusionary Sea; and the Hundred Domains Space, which develops the domain path. These are also important components of the cultivation of these elite geniuses.

Among them, what Xiang Bei valued most were the Heart-Training Path and the Hundred Domains Space, which could assist in the development of the domain.

What is the most important form of cultivation in the world of Swallowed Star?

Of course, it's the laws and the will of the mind.

Only when the laws and mental will reach a high enough level can a martial artist's potential and strength be greatly enhanced.

The virtual universe company has treasures that can directly boost cultivators to the maximum level of their current cultivation realm, so that they only need to cultivate themselves when breaking through to a higher realm.

Xiang Bei went even further, possessing a heart of steel within him, so all he had to do was keep "devouring" others.

The key lies in the cultivation of principles and the will of the mind.

"I can try it out later and see how it differs from the Trial Tower in the Elite Training Camp," Xiang Bei thought, then opened his access to the secret manual.

According to the basic reward rules, he has the right to obtain two domain lord-level secret manuals for free.

With Mingyu's guidance, Xiang Bei directly searched for "Five Elements Yuan Water Method" in the secret manual library and confirmed it without any hesitation.

Next, I selected the secret manual "Shattered Peak" without hesitation and then waited for it to be delivered to my door.

This is something Xiang Bei particularly doesn't understand: why do we have to wait for delivery after buying something in a virtual universe?

Why not just let it appear directly next to Xiang Bei?

Although some people complained about the virtual universe's approach, they still obediently waited for the virtual universe company to deliver the goods to their door.

In fact, Xiang Bei didn't wait long; in less than ten minutes, someone knocked on the door of Xiang Bei's virtual world.

With a joyful expression, Xiang Bei quickly arrived outside the villa in the virtual world, where he saw four figures in black standing quietly in front of the villa's gate.

"Mr. Xiang Bei," said the man in black who was at the head of the group.

"it's me."

Just like when Xiang Bei was picked up and put on the spaceship, the same identity verification process was repeated.

This time, however, Xiang Bei was collecting goods.

"It's you!" Just then, a burly man about four meters tall walked past Xiang Bei's door and called out in a surprised tone.

"It's you!" At the same time, Xiang Bei also looked back in the direction of the voice and recognized the other person at a glance.

This person was none other than the staff-wielding martial artist whom Ming Yu had sent to the duel space to fight Xiang Bei.

This person was tall and robust, with prominent bones on both sides of his forehead, large bones in his hands, and brownish-yellow skin, making him extremely conspicuous.

"I never expected to see you again. It seems you've accepted Lord Mingyu's offer!" the burly men said enthusiastically, a stark contrast to their silent demeanor back in the dueling space.

"Hello, it's nice to see you again. You are very strong. I would like to spar with you again if I have the chance," Xiang Bei said warmly.

"That's no problem. You can spar with me anytime I have time. Besides, you're quite strong, and sparring with you will help me improve a lot." The burly man said boldly, then added, "By the way, my name is Sa Yan*Xu Lai, from the Sa Yan clan of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire. I wonder what your name is, brother?"

"Just call me Xiang Bei, I'm from the Xia Clan," Xiang Bei replied with a smile.

"Xia Clan? Ah, perhaps I'm ignorant. By the way, brother, have you just chosen your inheritance? Haha, then you'll have to study it carefully. The inheritances offered by the Virtual Universe Company are not comparable to those simple ones from the outside world. Even the worst one is a superior inheritance at the Domain Lord level." Sa Yan* Xu Lai seemed to have forgotten which human race the Xia Clan Xiang Bei was referring to, and then quickly changed the subject.

"It's alright. My clan was originally just a small one, not well-known in the universe." Xiang Bei shook his head, not caring.

"Haha, Brother Xiang Bei, when you arrive at Yuanguang Star, I'll treat you to the best Yanhe Wine of our Sa Yan clan," Sa Yan* Xu Lai said to Xiang Bei with a smile.

"Then I shall respectfully accept your offer," Xiang Bei said with a smile.

As Sa Yanxu became increasingly familiar with Xiang Bei, Xiang Bei quickly began to chat with the burly man in front of him.

They also learned about the basic situation of the current elite members of the Iris Star from Sa Yan* Xu Lai.

In fact, although the Heilongshan branch of the Virtual Universe Company directly planned a planet for Xiang Bei and other elite members to use for cultivation, the number of elite members distributed in Heilongshan is actually not that large.

Its planetary-level Tier 3 elite members number only 145, accounting for more than half of all members.

Next are the 62 Level 2 elite members, which is the second largest number.

Next are the first-level members, and at this stage, the number of members is even smaller, with only 21.

Finally, there are the top-tier members. Reaching this level is extremely rare. Even if someone is discovered by the Black Dragon Mountain Empire, they will be promoted to a higher-level distribution area of ​​the Qianwu Empire in a short time, and there is even a possibility of them going to the headquarters, although it is only a possibility.

Currently, the entire Black Dragon Mountain Empire branch has only two planetary-level special-grade members and even fewer at the constant-level, with only one.

However, each of them possesses immense strength and potential, and holds a transcendent status. Even domain lord-level powerhouses on Yuanguang Star must show these geniuses a certain degree of respect.

Even a man of Sa Yan* Xu Lai's bold and unrestrained character couldn't help but show a look of longing when he mentioned those top-tier elites.

Xiang Bei was naturally very curious about this. After all, a genius like him would definitely want to see for himself and how much he was inferior to the other person.

In addition, the planet Iris Light also has elite members at the cosmic level.

Unfortunately, according to Sa Yan* Xu Lai's knowledge, although the elite members who entered the universe level still reside on Iris Star, in fact, most of these elite members of the branch are not actually on Iris Star.

Some of them cultivated within the realms within realms, some participated in the mission assessments set by the Virtual Universe Company, and others went on life-or-death adventures.

In short, the only elite members who truly remained on the planet were those at the planetary and eternal levels with lower cultivation.
