In the world of martial arts, there is a vast fantasy world.

Chapter 276

Wearing armor, Shen Xing did not intend to deny their mistaken belief that he was a Fifth Realm cultivator.

After all, if they knew they were only at the Spirit Realm, they might have some inappropriate rebellious thoughts, but facing someone at the Fifth Realm, they could suppress all such thoughts.

In the extraordinary world, levels signify status and position.

"You lot dare to steal my spaceship? I don't know whether to call you unlucky or stupid," Shen Xing said calmly. Although he didn't make any move, everyone seemed to feel the gaze from behind the armor sweep over them, bringing them an indescribable sense of unease.

Especially these three Spirit Realm experts.

I felt utterly hopeless.

They never expected that this person was actually on that unmanned spaceship! If they had known, they would never have let these people plunder.

But it was clearly just a small spaceship, and its main cannon was just a nuclear-powered particle cannon. How could it be the vehicle of the Fifth Realm?

But in any case, the facts are already before us. If we had encountered this person in the sea of ​​stars, we might have been able to escape with the help of a spaceship. But now that we are face to face, there is no chance of escape whatsoever.

The leader, a cultivator at the peak of the Spirit Realm, immediately knelt on the ground, saying in terror, "Senior, please forgive us. It was our ignorance. We are willing to pay compensation and save our lives!"

He didn't waste time with small talk; he went straight to the point.

Faced with such a powerful figure, they were nothing but ants. Whether they were killed or not was irrelevant. If they could gain something from the encounter, they might just let them go.

This was their only chance to survive.

"No rush," Shen Xing said unhurriedly. "Tell me first, who are you? Three Spirit Realm cultivators have infiltrated this small group of pirates. You need to give us a reason."

The three men felt a sudden sinking feeling in their hearts.

Indeed, the appearance of the three of them here was unusual, but it was actually quite common; they were simply hiding their identities and using a boat to smuggle themselves across the border.

Ordinary people would never ask this, but if it's someone from the Federation...

"You can take your time to come up with an excuse, just don't let me see through it." Shen Xing remained unhurried.

He didn't really care who these people were, but it was his first time stepping into this kind of no-knowledge zone. His experience and understanding of this place were too limited, relying entirely on imagination. If these three people could increase his knowledge, it wouldn't hurt.

His casual attitude finally made the three of them give up some of their futile fantasies.

The same person, who had reached the peak of the Spirit Realm, said, "The three of us are members of the Myriad Gods Society."

"The Pantheon?" Shen Xing raised an eyebrow, genuinely surprised.

This is no small force, but a large anti-federal organization, with members at the seventh level of the realm.

Moreover, unlike the World Merchants Association, which is not an organization that directly opposes the Federation, the Pantheon is truly an enemy of the Human Federation and has even engaged in military conflicts in some areas, posing a great threat to the citizens of the Human Federation, especially in some remote areas.

It can be said that this force is at the forefront of the struggle between the Federation and anti-Federal organizations.

"You guys are heading to the Wanshang Association, aren't you?" Shen Xing narrowed his eyes, already having a pretty good idea of ​​what was going on. "What kind of secret procurement mission are you going to complete? And you're even taking this kind of pirate spaceship. I'm afraid your identities might be exposed."

"Exactly." The three gritted their teeth and nodded. "Senior, we have an important mission. If we fail, it might attract the attention of our superiors. Although you are a powerful figure, it's better to avoid trouble. We are willing to offer a generous reward—three hundred billion!"

Three hundred billion Federal Credits—that amount is tempting even for someone at the Mountain and Sea Realm.

After all, it costs about one-tenth of the price of a decent medium-sized spaceship.

Many spaceships in the Mountain and Sea Realm are only at this level.

Moreover, the Pantheon is indeed not to be trifled with. This force is not one of those that pursue freedom or fairness. On the contrary, they regard powerful martial artists as gods, believe that the strong should enslave the masses, and even confer the title of "god" on all beings above the Spirit Realm within their ranks, each with a divine title.

This philosophy naturally led to an extremely brutal and domineering style.

Ordinary mountains and seas are not something one would dare to provoke.

However, it doesn't really matter if they were to be killed in this vast universe, which is why they are willing to pay "life-saving money".

However, Shen Xing doesn't really care about this mere 300 billion right now, and he's not afraid of any Pantheon Society.

At this moment, he was more interested in what these people wanted to buy.

"What are you planning to buy?" he asked directly.

"Senior!" The three of them changed their expressions.

However, in the next moment, the weakest of the three had his head explode, and blood splattered everywhere.

This sudden change startled everyone.

Especially the other two.

"I forgot to mention," Shen Xing narrowed his eyes and smiled, "I'm from the Human Federation, so if you want to live, you'd better tell me honestly. If you can bring me some credit, I might let you go. Otherwise, if I encounter anyone from your Pantheon Society, I'll just kill them without hesitation."

The remaining two people were filled with nothing but terror.

They didn't know if Shen Xing was telling the truth, but his nonchalant killing attitude was enough to show that he truly didn't care about their lives.

"Senior, I'll talk!" someone said hastily, seemingly finally snapping out of their daze.

"I'll tell you everything!" The other person also had no intention of hiding anything.

Shen Xing had already figured it out: these people were not the "determined" and "ideologically sound" anti-Federal personnel he had imagined; they were just a few opportunistic martial artists.

Presumably, joining the anti-federal organization is only for resources, so that they can piracy of martial arts concepts without restraint.

Such people are actually the most numerous among anti-Federalist organizations.

Since the risks were taken for the path of martial arts, and after finally cultivating to the Spirit Realm and gaining a long lifespan, one is naturally unwilling to die like this.

So the two of them told each other their mission without hesitation.

"You mean, what you want to buy is a super-high-yield nuclear bomb?" Shen Xing narrowed his eyes. "Or a type with wide-area destruction?"

This was indeed both surprising and unsurprising.

This type of weapon is prohibited in the Federation of Humanities.

Because proper martial artists have no use for it.

Its essence is an expanded version of Shen Xing's nuclear weapon from his previous life. It has extremely strong area damage, but it is not very effective against strong people. It is also not very effective against giant beasts in another world, and may even damage the environment of the other world itself.

Even if it's not highly polluting, who knows how many rare and precious materials it will destroy if it explodes.

Therefore, it was disabled.

The current nuclear weapons of the Federation of Humanity are all developed in areas where damage is concentrated. For example, the small nuclear weapons that Shen Xing used before only exploded at high temperatures within a certain range and did not expand the range.

Only in this way can you kill the strong.

However, nuclear weapons on a large scale are not useless. Apart from being used on the front lines and exclusively for the use of the Federation Army, they are most favored by anti-Federation organizations.

If a single weapon can be hidden in a city, it can threaten tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions of people.

To be honest, the more Shen Xing learned about interstellar life, the more he realized just how miserable ordinary people are in such a "high-tech" and "extraordinary" world.

They die way too easily.

A powerful individual can easily destroy a city, and technological weapons can do the same. Moreover, compared to destruction, defense is clearly much more difficult.

Even with the strength of the Federation, it is impossible to completely prevent such a disaster from happening.

This is also the kind of thing that anti-federal organizations are most likely to use to threaten the federation.

It's conceivable that once these people buy this nuclear weapon, it might explode in some city.

Of course, it's more likely that he'll be blocked. Otherwise, he would encounter such a thing so easily, and there would probably be large-scale fireworks everywhere in interstellar space, making it impossible to block information.

However, since Shen Xing had encountered it, he did have some ideas.

This kind of weapon seems pretty good in another world.

It doesn't need to cause too much damage; even just placing one in an uninhabited place is enough to have a great deterrent effect.

Even the forces of those sects might not be able to withstand much of it.

"Interesting," he said directly. "I want this nuclear weapon."

Everyone was stunned.

Especially these two Spirit Realm experts.

They never expected that this senior, who called himself a "Federal Personnel," would want such a weapon, which was not allowed to be owned by an individual!

Suddenly, they realized it too.

I'm afraid this person isn't a so-called federal citizen at all.

That's right. No Federation member would be so ruthless, killing people right off the bat. They wouldn't be this ruthless even when facing anti-Federal organizations.

But soon, a look of joy welled up in their hearts, because at least they didn't have to worry about being killed outright.

"No problem!" the expert at the peak of the Spirit Realm said directly, "Just leave this to us!"

"Hehe." Shen Xing chuckled twice, seemingly unconcerned, and knocked the two men unconscious. He then ordered, "Continue flying towards the Wanshang Association. Also, I'm taking over the AI ​​on the spaceship. Have your captain relinquish control."

The best and most stable way to gain complete control of a spaceship is to directly transfer authority.

This also allows for control of communication.

Although Shen Xing did not reveal all of his characteristics, he still did such a small thing on the side.

Traveling to the Merchant Guild in this spaceship should be safer than traveling in my own small spaceship.
