Immortality begins with Swallowing the Stars.

Chapter 73 First Battle

Under the tranquil starry sky.

An eerie ripple spread through the space.

A deep blue C9-class spaceship appeared out of thin air in the starry sky.

With the aid of a traction signal, the spaceship arrived at a docking port on a yellow planet.

"Now we can only rely on flying."

Led by the cosmic-level powerhouse escorting him, Lu Jing flew to the front of a huge black castle.

"This is the Vanli Castle, named so because the world created by the Vanli Realm Lord was discovered here."

Lu Jing noticed that many people were coming and going from the Fanli Castle, creating a bustling atmosphere.

A staff member at the site laughed and said, "The Fanli World is the world with the most participants in the trials that we have. Not only do elites from our Black Dragon Mountain Empire branch come here for trials, but elites from martial arts departments in other star regions also frequently come here for trials, all hoping to try their luck."

Leaving aside the inheritance of the Realm Lord, although the treasures of the Realm Lord's world have long been looted by the higher-ups of the Martial Department, if the Realm within a Realm opens, the treasures within it will be extremely attractive to the Eternal Star Elites.

Upon entering the castle, Lu Jing saw two large gates, each guarded by powerful figures.

"These two doors are the entrances to the Brahma World. One is the entrance for planetary elites to undergo trials, and the other is the entrance for eternal elites."

Lu Jing nodded. Among the martial arts division, the most elites were at the Eternal Star level, accounting for about 90%, followed by the Cosmic Star level, accounting for about 9%, while the Planetary Star level elites accounted for only 1%.

The main reason is that it is very rare for planetary-level elites to possess a domain, while the standards for cosmic-level elites are even higher, and few people meet the requirements. Most elites only stay at the planetary level and will not rashly break through to the cosmic level.

Moreover, the trials for cosmic-level elites are not conducted in the world of the realm lord.

Therefore, the world of the Realm Lord only has Constant Star level elites and a very small number of Planetary Star level elites. This is also why the special-grade elite Sausen dared to covet the inheritance of the Realm Lord of Fanli.

A handsome young man with an arrogant expression arrived at the entrance to the Hengxing Elite Rank.

"Bazel, a top-tier elite of the Eternal Star level in the Martial Arts Department of the Canglun Star Region." The woman in purple at the entrance for Eternal Star level elites announced her name: "Entry permitted. Trial mission issued..."

Lu Jing immediately noticed the badge on the handsome young man's chest.

It is indeed slightly different from the badges of the elites of their Black Dragon Mountain Star Region branch.

The elite badges of different star regions' military branches are different.

The elite geniuses within the Martial Arts Department are all issued badges, which are also a symbol of their status, just like trainee mercenaries and first-level mercenaries. They have certain privileges in their dealings and transactions with the forces and industries under the Virtual Universe Company.

"As expected, it's a popular trial world..." Lu Jing shook his head slightly.

To say he had no designs on it would be a lie, but Lu Jing knew what he wanted and didn't hold out much hope for it.

"Lu Jing, a Level 2 Elite of the Heilongshan Star Region."

The purple-clad man guarding the deserted planetary elite entrance confirmed Lu Jing's identity and information. After scanning Lu Jing to ensure he wasn't carrying any weapons of grade B or higher, or any auxiliary plant life forms, he solemnly said, "Entry is permitted. The trial mission has been sent to your personal smart device. Since this is your first time participating in the trial, I will give you a brief explanation."

"The Planetary Trial is held in a special area where all the monsters are of the Constant Star level, with the highest being the third rank of the Constant Star level. Don't underestimate these monsters. Even though you are a Planetary Elite, it is not difficult for you to kill ordinary first-rank Constant Star humans who are of a higher level."

"But the star-level monsters are not human. Their defense and strength far exceed those of humans of the same level. Moreover, these monsters are divided into three levels according to their bloodline: ordinary, elite, and king."

"According to your information, you will have a hard time dealing with ordinary monsters, and it is best not to touch elite monsters. King-level monsters are completely beyond your ability to deal with. However, they usually gather in the core area. As long as you do not enter the central core area, you will generally not encounter them."

"This is a spatial ring. You are a level two elite, so your trial task is to have the corpses of one hundred ordinary demonic beasts in your spatial ring after you come out, no matter how you kill them. If they are the corpses of elite demonic beasts, the number can be reduced to ten."

Lu Jing glanced at the various monster information displayed on the screen of his Force Suit arm, then opened the door, and a stream of light immediately poured out from inside.

He then stepped into the stream of light.

……

Shifting stars.

boom!

As soon as Lu Jing arrived in the Fanli World, he began to plummet at an alarming speed.

However, Lu Jing simply adjusted the rotation of the miniature planet in his dantian, and his body floated down to the ground as lightly as a falling leaf.

Before him stretched a vast grassland, dotted with a few large trees. However, the grass on this grassland was three meters tall, like a tall reed bed, completely obscuring Lu Jing's figure.

It also submerged the bodies of many monsters, turning this grassland into a killing field where monsters and dangers appear and disappear unpredictably.

Looking into the distance, there is a vast, boundless forest.

Lu Jing knew from the screen on his wrist that it was a more dangerous area, containing elite monsters, even king-level monsters, and the deeper he went into the forest, the more dangerous it became.

Looking further into the distance, you can see a massive mountain range.

The continuous mountain ranges surround this grassland and forest, forming a basin.

Lu Jing knew that this basin was the training area for planetary elites and was relatively safe.

Once you cross the mountains and leave the basin, you will arrive in the true world of the realm masters, a dangerous world where only star-level elites can survive.

"Good heavens, 3000 times the force of gravity! Even a pebble feels this heavy? The range of my telekinetic energy is only twenty meters..."

Babata's voice echoed in Lu Jing's mind: "This is a world created by a World Lord using the 'Original Energy of the Universe.' The foundation of every pebble and drop of water is a cosmic crystal. Quickly test your speed."

Lu Jing pushed off with his feet, leaped out of the grass, and flew a hundred meters in the low air.

"Flying consumes too much Force; under normal circumstances, only a Star-level expert could fly. However, the speed hasn't decreased too much; it's still 30 kilometers per second!"

Although the speed has been reduced to one-tenth, the speed of the star-level monsters here must be the same, and due to air resistance, it is basically impossible for any monster to match Lu Jing's speed.

"If air resistance is taken into account, the speed at which star-level elites enter would probably drop to one percent..."

Suddenly, a black panther-like monster leaped out of the bushes and pounced on Lu Jing.

"The Cloud-Spotted Saber-Toothed Beast is rated as a common-level early-stage Star-level monster."

Lu Jing instantly learned the information about the monster from the screen on his wrist. There are more than a hundred kinds of monsters on this grassland, most of which are ordinary-level star-level monsters.

Lu Jing retreated rapidly, instantly dodging the monster's sudden attack.

But he didn't run away. If he had to run away from ordinary monsters, he wouldn't have been able to complete the trial mission.

The dark-colored Windbreaker Sword instantly disintegrated into hundreds of blades, which then reassembled into seven blue, shuttle-shaped weapons.

The first form of the Windbreaker Sword: Cloud-Piercing Shuttle.

With Lu Jing's 24 times the amplitude of his psychic power, plus the enhancement of his domain, he was able to barely unleash the power of the initial stage of the Cloud-Breaking Shuttle.

Seven streaks of azure light shot out like lightning.

"A Star-level monster's defense is this strong?" Lu Jing wondered inwardly as he fought.

The man and the beast engaged in a fierce battle on the grassland.

This even attracted a large number of other monsters to attack.

However, Lu Jing's speed far exceeded that of these initial-stage Star-level demonic beasts, so he was naturally unafraid. He continued to dodge the attacks of other demonic beasts while focusing his attacks on the Cloud-Spotted Saber-Toothed Beast that had already been injured.

After a long while, Lu Jing finally killed him, swiftly storing his corpse in his spatial ring before fleeing.

Lu Jing felt a faint warmth coming from his chest and was overjoyed: "It really worked!"

The gate, formed by purple patterns resembling birthmarks on the chest, was slightly stained with a hint of blood.

The progress of reopening the mysterious door has been slightly accelerated.

However, he was immediately taken aback, thinking to himself, "I thought killing the Beast King might be useful, but I didn't expect that killing this star-level monster would only bring me this little progress. If I were still on Earth, even if I killed all the monsters on Earth, it wouldn't make any difference."

Even a first-tier Hengxing demon beast, which is rated as having ordinary bloodline, far surpasses the so-called beast king on Earth.

"What are you so happy about? It's already this difficult to kill a normal-level monster. If you want to complete the task of killing a hundred, it will probably take a lot of time. You only managed to kill one because you were fast and unafraid of being surrounded."

Babata sighed, "As expected of a life-or-death trial, this is only a relatively easy trial for planetary elites. I wonder how difficult the trials for celestial elites will be."

Lu Jing smiled and said, "So what if they're hard to deal with? It's perfect for me to slowly comprehend the fundamental laws through combat."

There will be another chapter at 12 o'clock.
