Starting as a Grandmaster, all of my cultivation techniques are at max level.

Under Xia Jin's command, the alien man could only grit his teeth and walk humiliatingly to the control panel.

"Damn it, I'll remember this humiliation. You'd better not fall into my hands again!!"

The alien man's face was ashen, but he still gritted his teeth and activated the navigation array on the warship, locking the course towards the Malang Star Region.

For the next three days, the alien man remained silent, mechanically maneuvering the warship.

Xia Jin stood with her hands behind her back by the porthole, gazing at the endless void turbulence ahead. Although her face was calm, the burning fire deep in her eyes never went out.

A million years of cultivation—that's an incredibly tempting offer.

So great that he didn't even expect another reward, the God-Slaying Spear Technique!

Although he knew that this technique was probably also a supreme technique, his only goal now was to step into the legendary holy realm.

On the third day, the warship finally broke free from the turbulent void.

The distant sky was somewhat hazy and gray.

Xia Jin carefully surveyed her surroundings, this incredibly vast star field.

"Is this the legendary wasteland?"

As far as the eye could see, dozens of stars of varying sizes floated.

Unfortunately, those stars had no luster whatsoever, as if all life had been drained from them.

Some stars still show traces of mountains that once existed, while others have simply shattered into several pieces, with the remains floating in the void.

Those stars all have one thing in common: they have no vegetation, no water vapor, and you can't even sense the faint thermal fluctuations that should exist deep in the earth's crust.

A dead silence.

"Is this place really as the legends say, almost devoid of any living beings?"

Xia Jin closed her eyes, and her divine sense surged out like a tide.

However, wherever the divine sense went, there was only emptiness.

He quickly withdrew his consciousness, slowly opened his eyes, and his expression was somewhat unpleasant.

Searching for the so-called "corpse fetus heart" in a place like this is incredibly difficult!

Xia Jin turned around and her gaze fell on the alien man who was looking down and pretending to be focused on controlling the warship.

"Feed".

The foreign man stiffened, but still had to raise his head, forcing a grim expression: "M-Sir, what are your orders?"

"Are you sure that 'corpse fetus heart' you're talking about really would be hidden in a place like this?"

Xia Jin's voice was tinged with anger, "I just scanned the area within tens of thousands of miles with my divine sense, and I didn't see a single living creature, not even a breathing rock. This godforsaken place... could it possibly hide the heart of a Saint of your Corpse Clan?"

"You should know what will happen if I find out you're lying!!"

A complex expression flashed across the alien man's face, as if he was hesitating about something, but in the end, under Xia Jin's increasingly cold gaze, he obediently spoke up.

"My lord, I'm not lying! I really don't know the exact location."

"However, back when we were in the lineage of vengeful spirits, I once overheard a senior elder mentioning some things after he had been drinking."

"The elder said that at the end of the last world-destroying war, our Corpse Clan's Saint Realm ancestor unexpectedly perished on the battlefield. Although his physical body was later retrieved by the clan's powerful members at the cost of their lives and buried in the sacred tomb deep within the clan's territory, his 'Corpse Embryo Heart' vanished without a trace in the chaos of the battlefield."

As the foreign man spoke, a hint of awe involuntarily appeared in his eyes.

"Since then, our entire Corpse Clan has sent out a large number of people countless times, almost turning that ancient battlefield upside down, and even searching dozens of surrounding star fields, but we have still found nothing."

"Until recently, our clan leader obtained a secret treasure from an extremely ancient ruin. It was with the guidance of that treasure that we finally located the approximate location of this heart."

The alien man raised his head and looked at Xia Jin with a complicated expression. "And the direction that secret treasure points to is this Malang Star Region. But if you ask me about the exact location, I really don't know, otherwise this Corpse Embryo Heart would have been found and taken back by my Corpse Clan long ago."

"Why would we wait until now!"

"Is that so?" Xia Jin's eyes gleamed after hearing these words.

"Wait, something's not right!!"

After a moment of contemplation, a crucial question flashed into his mind.

"Wait a minute!! If that's the case, then wouldn't your Corpse Clan send a lot of people to the Marang Star Region to search for the heart?"

The foreign man nodded subconsciously at first, but then quickly shook his head.

"No, my lord. You are unaware of this... Our lineage of vengeful spirits, due to our special talents, possesses a natural advantage that other lineages cannot match when it comes to perceiving and searching for things that share the same origin as the 'corpse fetus'."

"Therefore, our Wraith lineage was among the first to enter the Marang Starfield as pioneers and explorers. The other lineages will only go in large numbers after we have confirmed their exact locations."

"This time, our Wraith lineage sent a total of three teams into this star system. In addition to my warship, there are two other warships that set off about half a day earlier than us, and they should have entered the Marang star system before us."

Xia Jin's eyes suddenly lit up when she heard this!

"If that's the case, then that's good. As long as we find the location of the corpse fetus's heart before the other branches of the Corpse Clan arrive, it will most likely fall into my hands!" Xia Jin couldn't help but feel a little fortunate.

"By the way, you just said that your lineage of vengeful spirits has the talent to sense and find things that share the same origin as the 'corpse fetus'?"

"Then what are you waiting for? Immediately unleash your so-called 'talent' and find it!"

The alien man's lips twitched involuntarily, but when he met Xia Jin's cold eyes, he could only manage a forced smile and nod.

"I'll start right now!!"

The foreign man let out a long breath, as if he had resigned himself to his fate.

Soon, a chilling aura slowly emanated from his body.

Immediately afterwards, a blurry green figure slowly rose from the top of his head.

The figure was only about three feet tall, and only a rough outline of a human shape could be made out.

Xia Jin observed the green phantom with great interest.

"Hmm? It does resemble the divine soul cultivated by human cultivators somewhat."

"This is the innate supernatural power of our lineage of vengeful spirits—'Netherworld Spiritual Connection'."

The green phantom suddenly spoke, its voice ethereal and otherworldly. Immediately afterward, countless tiny tentacles shot out from the green phantom, constantly stirring the void.
