What? You opened a resort on the battlefield of all races?

"Oh?"

Xu Tianlin raised an eyebrow as he listened to the series of cheerful system notifications in his ear.

"A brand new version?"

The way this system spoke just now sounded like it was doing a big opening sale at a shopping mall.

What is blooming like a sea of ​​stars?

What a great journey.

All that's missing is setting off two strings of firecrackers next to his ear and hanging up a red banner—"Congratulations to Boss Xu on acquiring the qualification for a global chain store."

Xu Tianlin's lips curled into a smile.

Laughs aside.

His mind, however, did not drift along with the system.

The words "Starry Sea" sound grand.

But actually venturing out into the world won't be that simple.

On this planet beneath his feet, he really has nothing to worry about right now.

Within the resort area, there's a manager buff, making them invincible.

As the resort continues to expand, the invincible territory is also gradually spreading outwards.

Not to mention that planetary anchor points have already begun to form.

Once the anchor points are fully completed and the planet's origins are in our hands, it's only a matter of time before the entire planet is incorporated into the resort system.

By then, this planet will be his true base of operations.

But Xinghai clearly has a different approach.

Xu Tianlin glanced at Emerson, who was still kneeling on one knee in front of him.

An Eternal Realm Star Messenger just raised his hand and easily dealt with the Dao Integration Realm Yellow Sand Rat King like cleaning up cookie crumbs on a table.

This is just a "messenger".

What about the star lord that Emerson mentioned?

How many Star Lords are there?

How much territory does a star lord control?

If they start fighting, what will they rely on to fight?

We can't just rush into space and then use our elemental energy to blast everything at once, can we?

What about further up?

Has the Star Lord already reached the top?

Or is there something even higher up above us?

Several questions popped into Xu Tianlin's mind.

It's never a bad thing to be cautious.

He used to find one particular plot point most annoying when reading cultivation novels.

The protagonist sweeps across the lower realms, and everyone has to call him their ancestor when he goes out.

Even after finally ascending to the top, he still maintained that "I'm the best in the world" attitude.

Then, after walking only a few steps from the entrance to the upper realm, he was turned into an experience pack by a fart from a passing big shot's pet.

Xu Tianlin certainly doesn't want to end up like that on TV one day.

Just as he was pondering these things.

Suddenly, a "ding" sounded in my ear.

[Host, please rest assured.]

This system is called the God-Level Resort System.

[Even if you, host, step into the sea of ​​stars, or ascend to the realm of gods, as long as the resort exists, you are invincible!]

Xu Tianlin raised an eyebrow.

The system's tone was noticeably more energetic than before, even carrying a hint of inexplicable pride.

You don't actually think that the "myriad races" in the Myriad Races Resort only refer to the myriad races of this planet beneath your feet, do you?

[No way, really?]

Xu Tianlin: "..."

His hand holding the milk tea cup paused for two breaths.

"Why do I feel like..."

"Why has the upgraded system become so unpredictable?"

[Now providing the host with advanced background knowledge.]

Subsequently, a large amount of information flooded into Xu Tianlin's mind like an enema.

Ah, this long-lost feeling!

A moment later, a look of realization flashed across Xu Tianlin's eyes.

Starry Sea, Star Lord, Planetary Origin, Star Messenger, Civilization Level, Starry Sky Realm.

A whole system I had never encountered before quickly unfolded in my mind.

A Star Lord is a cultivator who controls the essence of a planet.

When a cultivator truly refines the planet's origin and establishes a connection between their own will and the planet, they are qualified to enter the Star Lord level.

Such beings are not uncommon in the vast sea of ​​stars. In fact, they are countless throughout the entire universe.

More interesting.

The power of a star lord does not solely depend on his own cultivation level.

The core lies in the planets. The more planets one controls, the deeper one's foundation.

This is easy to understand.

But what truly differentiates star lords is the mass of the planet itself.

They also control a planet.

It was a desolate place, where not even a blade of grass could grow.

On another planet, powerful beings abound, cultivation civilization flourishes, and the Eternal Realm is everywhere.

The power provided to the star lord by the two sides is naturally not on the same level.

The more cultivators on a planet, the higher the overall realm, and the stronger the primal power that the planet lord can borrow.

Upon seeing this, Xu Tianlin's expression gradually became strange.

"Isn't this just a simulation game?"

Others nurture characters, while the Star Lord nurtures the planet.

The more people a family has, the more powerful individuals it has, and the better its civilization is developed, the more powerful its star lord will be.

The gameplay in Starry Sea is also very simple and straightforward.

They attacked each other, fought for planets, and plundered their origins.

The winning side expands its territory and continues to grow stronger.

The losing side loses its planet, its resources diminish, and in severe cases, it may even lose its homeland.

Demon Emperor: Don't mention it.

The dog-eat-dog world of the stars is not much different from the battlefield of myriad races on the planet beneath his feet.

It's even more chaotic now.

The system then provided a classification of civilizations.

The planet beneath Xu Tianlin's feet has not yet reached even the most basic level of civilization (Level 1).

The measurement standard is very straightforward.

The quantity and quality of the strong.

Only when a civilization truly produces an Eternal Realm powerhouse and possesses the ability to step off a planet and travel through the cosmos can it be considered to have obtained the ticket to enter the realm of a Level 1 civilization.

Xu Tianlin's gaze then fell on Emerson.

Now it matches up.

The Eternal Realm experts left their home planet and traveled through the sea of ​​stars.

Some of them will become Star Messengers under the Star Lord.

They explored unknown star regions for the star lord, searching for planets with low civilizations.

Once a suitable target is found, the next step is to seize the planet's origin and register the new planet under the name of one's own planetary lord.

to be honest.

It's like a cosmic version of a salesperson.

Finding clients is also called scouting.

If negotiations fail, just acquire the entire company.

No wonder Emerson was so excited after seeing the horoscope that he almost celebrated the New Year on the spot.

The astrolabe itself is a key artifact born from the origin of the planet.

Obtaining it is like touching the doorknob to become a star lord.

As for the ranking of star lords, it's even more straightforward.

One-star master.

Two-star master.

Three Star Lord...

The number of planets controlled corresponds to the number of stars.

It's so simple that it doesn't even need an instruction manual.

The cultivation system also continues to expand upwards.

Above the Eternal Realm, all are unified under the Starry Sky Realm.

From level one to level nine.

With each advancement to the next level, one's level of life and control over cosmic energy undergo further transformation.

Among them, the true ninth-tier Star Realm experts, even if they have not yet mastered the origin of the planet, may have combat power that surpasses some low-tier Star Lords.

in other words.

The identity of the Star Lord is very important.

However, identity does not equate to absolute combat power.

Seeing this, Xu Tianlin felt relieved.

Cultivating strong individuals?

Isn't this one of the resort's specialties?

The information provided by the system focused on the star cluster.

Star clusters are the universal currency of the star system.

Produced from the planet's origin, ranging from level five to level one.

The higher the level, the more concentrated the stellar power it contains, and the purchasing power naturally increases accordingly.

It is roughly equivalent to the spirit stones in the cultivation novels that Xu Tianlin had read before.

Xu Tianlin looked again at the large ball of light that Emerson had set up.

Just now I only noticed it was bright.

Let's look at it again now.

Good heavens, it's all money.

foreign currency!

According to the reference standards provided by the system.

An Eternal Realm Star Messenger like Emerson earns about the equivalent of a Level 5 star cluster in a month.

Xu Tianlin counted the pile in front of him.

There were more than a dozen, and some of them were clearly of a higher grade than five.

His gaze toward Emerson suddenly became subtle.

Good guy.

This person has probably emptied their entire savings account.

No wonder he looked like he was paying off his 30-year mortgage early when he was getting his things.

Just as Xu Tianlin finished processing this information...

The system voice sounded again.

[The construction point system will be completely shut down once all planetary anchor points have been collected.]

For a star lord who has complete control over a planet, money is meaningless.

Xu Tianlin's lips twitched slightly.

That does sound rather domineering.

The entire planet belongs to me; no matter how much currency there is inside, it's just moving money from one pocket to another.

[The system upgrade conditions are met. Once all world anchor points are gathered, the system will officially upgrade.]

[Based on the host's current situation, a Star Sea Assistance mission is issued.]

A new panel unfolded before Xu Tianlin's eyes.

[Mission Requirements: Absorb the Star Chart, establish the host's first Star Sea-level branch on the planet where the Star Chart is located, and accumulate profits of 1000 Level 5 Star Clusters.]

[Mission Rewards: Star Cultivation Pod, Star Sea Life Bed, Construction Permissions!]

Xu Tianlin stared at the task for a long time.

She looked down at the half-full cup of milk tea in her hand.

Finally, he raised his hand and scratched his cheek.

"After saying so much..."

"So you mean you've switched to earning foreign exchange now, right?"
