Swallowing the Stars: Starting with the Steel of the Heart

Since Xiang Bei was a newly joined Level 2 elite of the Virtual Universe Company, he was not required to undergo any mandatory trial missions during the first three months of the initial phase, and he could cultivate on his own.

However, three months later, the Virtual Universe Company will issue certain trial tasks to these elite members. Xiang Bei and his group can only be considered qualified if they complete a certain number of trial tasks each year.

If they do not complete enough trial tasks, their trial ranking will drop.

If the trial mission is not completed to a sufficient degree, the level will also be downgraded.

In other words, the first three months will be the easiest three months for Xiangbei.

They won't have to go through various trials and adventures, nor will they encounter any life-threatening situations.

However, these three months are definitely not meant to be wasted, and the Virtual Universe Company is giving them time to digest resources and grow their strength.

Xiang Bei was no exception.

However, now is not the time to use up the opportunity to enter the treasure land.

He had only grasped the power of the domain a little over a month ago.

It's not time for me to break through to the second level of the domain.

Moreover, the illustrations for the "Five Elements Water Method" are still in the development stage and have not yet encountered any major bottlenecks.

Therefore, the opportunity to enter the Dark Ocean should not be wasted.

Therefore, Xiang Bei chose Baiyu Space, a virtual universe company, as the starting point for his life on Yuanguang Star.

To be honest, at first Xiang Bei thought that the Hundred Domains Space would be like the Chaos Stele, allowing people to comprehend its mysteries, or like the Bridge to Heaven, where one could hone their skills by fighting and overcoming challenges.

However, it wasn't until he actually entered the Hundred Domains Space that Xiang Bei discovered it was completely different from what he had imagined.

This is a fantastical world filled with vibrant colors, and as far as the eye can see, there is a sea of ​​white light.

Beautiful and dazzling, it's like a dream world.

However, while Xiang Bei was still admiring the dreamlike world...

A female voice issued a notification from the void.

"Student: Xiang Bei; Realm: Water Domain Level 1. Domain Suppression Begins."

As he spoke, a terrifying force pressed down on Xiang Bei from all directions.

The dazzling array of colors and light around them changed at this moment, as if many runes were condensing in the air, forming a powerful water pressure that pressed down on Xiang Bei.

In an instant, Xiang Bei felt as if he were an ordinary person in the depths of the ocean, thousands of meters below.

The terrifying water pressure made it almost impossible for him to breathe.

And as time goes on, this terrifying pressure continues to intensify.

However, this terrifying pressure was not a physical pressure like gravity, but a terrifying pressure that naturally formed by the rigid force of a domain enveloping him.

If Xiang Bei had the physical strength he possessed in the outside world, he could withstand this pressure. However, in the virtual world, physical strength is fixed, especially in the Hundred Domains, where he is restricted to only the fourth level of apprentice.

The only way to resist this pressure from the domain is to confront it with a true domain.

They countered with equally powerful domain forces, and broke through the domain pressure of the Hundred Domains Space with even more sophisticated domain transformation techniques.

In an instant, Xiang Bei understood the auxiliary cultivation principle of the Hundred Domains Space.

It is through the immense pressure of the domain that everyone cultivating in the Hundred Domains Space is forced to resist this pressure.

This allows practitioners to comprehend the power and changes within the cultivation realm during the process of resisting.

Without much hesitation, Xiang Bei directly unleashed his Water Domain, covering his body.

In an instant, Xiang Bei felt the pressure around him ease.

"This is a good place!" Xiang Bei observed his surroundings with bright, alert eyes.

In order to withstand the pressure from the domain for a longer period of time, one's own domain power must be constantly improving.

At the same time, when the pressure of the domain is formed in the Hundred Domains space, various secret patterns will naturally appear around it.

These secret patterns were not complicated at the beginning; they were many times simpler than the illustrations in the "Five Elements Water Method".

Furthermore, as the pressure in the Hundred Domains space increases, the surrounding runes also continue to change and become increasingly complex.

This is a presentation process that progresses from simple to complex.

The cultivators then comprehend the domain through secret runes while confronting it.

It can be described as an exceptionally terrifying and perfect place for cultivation.

Xiang Bei's eyes shone brightly as he expanded his domain while trying his best to memorize and comprehend these secret patterns.

It seemed as if they wanted to memorize the entire Hundred Domains space in their minds.

However, as time went on, the pressure within the Hundred Domains Space had increased several times in just five minutes.

At first, Xiang Bei could easily resist, but now he felt the pressure on him getting heavier and heavier.

Even his own domain began to crumble, and an indescribable sense of weakness gradually eroded his will to continue.

"I can't hold on any longer!"

Xiang Bei gritted his teeth, trying to hold on a little longer in this Hundred Domains space.

However, compared to the entire Hundred Domains Space, Xiang Bei's small First Water Domain is simply not worth mentioning.

As the squeezing force of the Hundred Domains space grew heavier, a "crack" sound seemed to come from the void.

The water domain of Xiangbei shattered in response.

The moment Xiang Bei's water domain shattered, he felt a darkness before his eyes, and when he opened them again, his body was already outside the Hundred Domains Space.

"It's over." Xiang Bei said with some regret. He could feel that the Hundred Domains Space had been of great help to his cultivation.

Unfortunately, his first level of water domain couldn't hold out for very long.

He couldn't imagine how much progress he could make if he could stay inside for ten days or half a month.

Unfortunately, the Hundred Domains Space isn't a place you can just enter whenever you want. Aside from the first free entry, he only has one free entry opportunity per month.

If you want to enter again later, you will have to spend contribution points.

Contribution points are the common currency for these elite members, and can be used to purchase many precious cultivation resources in the Virtual Universe Company.

Its value is incomparable to even the higher-grade Qianwu Coin, let alone the Black Dragon Coin of the Black Dragon Empire. Only the higher-grade Cosmic Coin is qualified to barely rival the contribution points.

Approximately 100 Cosmic Coins are equal to 1 Contribution Point.

However, no member was foolish enough to exchange contribution points for cosmic coins.

It's important to know that obtaining contribution points is much more difficult than obtaining cosmic coins. These elite members can only earn a few contribution points by completing various trial missions.

Alternatively, if they achieve a breakthrough in their cultivation realm or a breakthrough in their understanding of the laws, the Virtual Universe Company will also reward them with a contribution point.

Of course, for a newcomer like Xiang Bei, the Virtual Universe Company also gave him 300 contribution points as start-up capital.

Unfortunately, he planned to use those 300 contribution points to buy a Blue Sea Coconut, as suggested by Lord Mingyu.

Xiang Bei checked and found out that one of those things cost 260 contribution points.

This is equivalent to a price of approximately 260 billion Black Dragon Coins.
