The Nine Secrets of Swallowing the Stars Combined

"It is said that after the fall of the Lord of Thunder Nightmare, the Thunder Nightmare Clan prepared to flee immediately, but the Demon Clan and the Mechanical Clan arrived too quickly."

"Multiple universe lords descended together, and all the universe venerables of the Thunder Nightmare clan were killed, and the immortal gods were almost wiped out." Ba Qi's gaze was profound. "But there are still rumors that there are many hidden treasures on the Thunder Nightmare Continent, and there are indeed records of treasures being opened many times over the endless years, each time causing terrifying slaughter."

"The Thunder Nightmare Clan has a Lord of the Universe, so they must have been a powerful clan in the past, possessing considerable resources. Otherwise, they wouldn't have attracted both the Demon Clan and the Mechanical Clan to attack them," Ba Qi thought to himself.

For example, Luo Feng obtained the treasures of the Yanji Continent in the Seventh Battlefield. The Yanji Continent was just an ordinary race without a universe master. The few treasures left behind were already quite amazing.

If I could obtain the treasure left behind by the Thunder Nightmare Clan, it would be quite substantial.

There's no way around it, we're poor!

To this day, Ba Qi has not yet been able to gather enough energy to push the Golden Beast God's Egg to its perfect limit of 10081 kilometers in diameter.

"We also need resources worth over a dozen Treasure Points; one Treasure Point is equivalent to 10 trillion Chaos Units!"

"The average peak-level King-level expert is worth around 100 billion Chaos Yuan units."

"The limit for becoming a king is roughly between several hundred billion and one hundred billion."

"If we rely solely on killing these alien races to become kings, I don't know when we'll be able to gather a dozen or so treasure points."

Ba Qi pondered to himself that perhaps he should focus his attention on those who were truly at the top level of the extraterritorial battlefield and were invincible kings.

Characters like the Seven Swords King and the Death King from the Seventh Battlefield, who are invincible kings of various races, generally possess one or two powerful treasures.

It's likely that the invincible kings on the second battlefield possess considerable treasures. If one can defeat an invincible king, the energy needed to cultivate the Beast God's Egg will be plentiful.

"If I were to unleash my full power, even an invincible king wouldn't be a match for me!"

The current Ba Qi possesses the comprehension of the nineteenth level of the laws of the Tongtian Bridge. Although he does not have the title of King because he did not attempt to cross the Tongtian Bridge, he is a genuine high-level King Immortal who can teleport!

Moreover, he is a high-level immortal king with a genetic level of 600 times, about to master 16 times the divine body amplitude, possessing a treasured battle armor and a supreme divine spear, and having created the peak secret technique of the cosmic venerable!

Let alone the Seven Swords King, a pseudo-King-level invincible figure on the battlefield outside the domain, even a true King-level invincible figure like the True King of Derivation might not be his match.

"Unfortunately, defeating him is easy, but killing or even enslaving the invincible king is very difficult," Ba Qi sighed inwardly.

His only weakness at present is his divine body.

The human body is simply too small. The quality of the divine power it contains is undeniable, but its size is far inferior to that of other alien races.

"Let's take it one step at a time. First, follow this team to the inner region, then hurry up and accumulate military merits. Once we regain our freedom, we'll go directly to the core area!" Ba Qi's gaze was profound.

The military system required him to accumulate 100 billion military merits. Once Ba Qi had accumulated 100 billion military merits, he could regain his freedom.

This is not difficult to do.

However, the Virtual Universe Company's requirements for Ba Qi are outrageously high, amounting to a full 1000 trillion military merits!

"Killing a high-level King-level Immortal only yields 100 trillion military merits, but only killing a peak-level alien race can earn 1000 trillion military merits at once!" Ba Qi thought to himself.

The Virtual Universe Company certainly doesn't expect Ba Qi to be able to directly kill a peak-level King-level expert and gain military merit in one go.

After all, in the virtual universe, he only revealed the strength of the fourteenth level of the Heavenly Bridge. Even with the Black Warrior's enhancement, it would be impossible for him to kill a peak King-level being.

"However, the higher-ups in the virtual universe probably know that I'm hiding my strength. In their eyes, my strength is roughly between the peak of the Marquis level and the initial level of the King level," Ba Qi thought to himself. "In addition, I also have a supreme weapon and a heavy armor, which is why the military merit requirements for me are ridiculously high compared to the strength I demonstrate."

Killing a newly ascended King-level Immortal grants approximately 10 trillion military merits, while killing a peak Marquis-level Immortal grants approximately 1 trillion military merits.

This means that the Virtual Universe Company's expectation of Ba Qi should be that he be able to kill one hundred to one thousand alien races with similar strength to himself.

After all, in the eyes of the higher-ups at the Virtual Universe Company, Ba Qi was a disciple of the Lord of the Universe, a Black Warrior, and possessed powerful treasures and weapons. Killing alien races of the same level as himself should be a piece of cake.

"Unfortunately, my hidden strength is far greater than what I show on the surface!" Ba Qi's lips curled up slightly.

While defeating an invincible king might be difficult, killing a peak king wouldn't be too challenging, and the military merit could be easily obtained.

However, Ba Qi came to the battlefield outside the region not just to achieve military merit.

1000 trillion military merits is only equivalent to 100 billion mixed units, which is a drop in the ocean for him.

. . . . . . . . . .

Time flies, and 30 years have passed in a flash.

During this time, Ba Qi and the others rested in their respective rooms on the spaceship.

Captain Yuri was responsible for keeping watch for everyone.

Along the way from the outer domain to the inner domain, they encountered ambushes by alien races many times, but as long as Yuri released a little bit of his Marquis-level immortal aura, he could scare those alien races away.

After all, within the outer realms, those who have been granted the title of Marquis and are immortal gods are basically the ceiling of combat power.

"Alright everyone, gather around, we're almost there!"

As Captain Yuri spoke, everyone arrived one after another in the spaceship's main hall.

Ba Qi looked ahead; the spaceship's virtual screen was displaying everything from the outside world.

In the vast starry sky, one can see a huge star in the distance.

And around that planet is a huge ring of stars.

"This is the Ice Flame Superstar, one of the twelve superstars?" Ba Qi's eyes were filled with astonishment.

Don't be fooled by how small the planets look; they are actually separated by an unknown distance.

In fact, the diameter of this ice-fire giant star is measured in light-years, making it many times larger than a typical star.

Within its surrounding ring of stars are countless stars and planets.

"On the Ice Flame Giant Star, there are many peak-level Marquis like me, and even Immortal Kings are not uncommon. It's too dangerous there; our team won't go." Captain Yuri looked at Ba Qi. "Our destination is that ring of stars."

"There are a large number of immortal teams there, and many of the team captains are already Marquis-level immortals, while the team members are basically peak immortal military lords."

"Our targets are the weaker immortal teams!"

"Heavenly Emperor, you have only one mission: to expose yourself alone in the starry sky and lure the alien immortal team that is secretly watching into our ambush zone!" Captain Yuri looked at him.
