Swallowing the Stars: Reboot, The Eternal Serpent!

Chapter 88 Is this a good thing or a bad thing?

In reality, the outcome of this battle had little impact on the geniuses, immortals, Nine Swords Venerables, and even the Virtual Universe Company behind them.

After all, the allocation of the four secret realm slots has already been decided.

Regardless of whether Jiang Zhe or Bo Lan wins this battle, it will not affect their entry into the top-level primordial secret realm.

But it is very important to the two parties involved.

Bolan was proud, and so was Jiang Zhe.

There can only be one title of number one among humanity in the universe!

"These two are like monsters. Is comprehending the laws as easy for them as eating and drinking?" Rong Jun exclaimed, then curiously tilted his head and asked, "Madman, who do you think is more powerful, your senior brother or Bolan?"

"Of course it's my senior brother!" Luo Feng answered without hesitation. "I still have the ambition to catch up with Bolan. But the more I learn about my senior brother and experience the height he stands at, the more I can only look up to him for now."

"You madman, you still think about surpassing your senior brother? Does your senior brother even know?" Rong Jun shouted.

"Of course, are you going to give up just because of one defeat?"

Luo Feng looked at the tall figure appearing on the arena, clad in dark purple metallic armor, and thought to himself, "If I can surpass my senior brother, you'll only be happy, right? I can feel that you value me highly, and I won't let you down."

"Give up? Impossible!" Rong Jun shook his head. "They're only ahead for now. I will catch up and surpass them. I have every reason to grow!"

"Haha, who isn't?"

The two exchanged a smile, both able to sense each other's unwavering resolve.

On the arena, the battle is about to begin.

I thought it would be a fierce battle, but it ended faster than I expected.

Bolan stepped forward and charged towards Jiang Zhe with his blood sword in hand. Thousands of phantoms emerged in the air and surrounded Jiang Zhe. The blood sword hummed, as if it could strike from all directions at any time.

Jiang Zhe floated in the air on the Shadow Shuttle, and with a thought, he radiated a dark purple lightning domain outward.

Then, with a flick of his left arm, a total of 729 fine needles flew out from Huisuo's hand. They combined according to a special pattern, with dark purple threads emerging and connecting with each other to form nine punitive spears each a foot long.

Arcs of electricity radiated from the spears of punishment, forming a spherical space with a radius of 300 meters centered on Jiang Zhe.

It completely overlapped with the domain, forming a world of lightning that exuded an aura of annihilation.

Led by the immortals from the Dream Universe Kingdom, Alyssa was surrounded by a thin, hazy mist, and her charming eyes held a solemn gaze.

Luo Feng jumped up from his seat in surprise. As a user of the Divine Weapon, how could he not recognize this move as "Sword Domain," which is comparable to the third level of the Divine Weapon!

One by one, the immortals stared wide-eyed and gasped.

This? The third layer?

Such a strong will and determination!

What terrifying level of understanding of the dual laws of lightning and time!

Both are indispensable. If one only relies on the mental power of a ninth-level star, it is absolutely impossible to manifest this form!

The Destroying Hand, Third Level: Calming the Storm!

It's a domain-type move, so it can also be called "Lightning Domain"!

When the two domains overlap, Jiang Zhe gains absolute control over the surrounding space, and the electric snakes darting within the entire spherical space possess terrifying destructive power!

Berlan, defiant and defiant, ventured inside. One after another, his phantoms were destroyed by the electric snakes, and even he himself was forced to reveal his whereabouts by the electric snakes.

Then, the nine spears of punishment that were moving in the spherical space only needed to move one of them to kill Berlan!

From the emergence of the illusory form, to the expansion of the domain, and then to the ten-foot-long bolt of lightning that pinned Bolan down...

The whole process sounds lengthy, but it actually happens in the blink of an eye.

Jiang Zhe won with an absolute advantage, defeating his opponent in seconds!

First place in this year's Genius Battle!

Humanity is number one in the universe!

……

While everyone was still in shock, the voice of the Nine Swords Venerable rang out, bringing them back to their senses.

He announced the successful conclusion of this year's Genius Battle and praised with a smile, "This year's competition has been exceptionally outstanding. I believe that decades or even centuries from now, many of you will be renowned throughout the universe, and some may even stand shoulder to shoulder with me!"

"Keep it up, I have high hopes for you!"

"Someone will contact you shortly..."

After arranging the follow-up matters, the Nine Swords Venerable said a few more words of encouragement before leaving.

Subsequently, all 1008 team leaders who had achieved immortality also departed.

Only Jiang Zhe and the others remained. They registered their real-world addresses with the staff and waited for the virtual universe company to arrange a spaceship to take them to headquarters.

……

After having dinner with his family, Jiang Zhe returned to his small courtyard and received an email from the Virtual Universe Company—they would pick him and Luo Feng up on Bailan Star in 12 days.

Seven days before their departure, Hong and Thor arrived on White Orchid Star and were picked up by a spaceship sent by the Qianwu Universe Kingdom and taken to the Qianwu Secret Realm.

2071 7 Month 12 Day.

Jiang Zhe was unable to celebrate his birthday at home and left Earth with Luo Feng on a spaceship.

For the first ten days, he cleaned up the cosmic-level ferocious beasts in the Crystal Core World, leaving the Crystal Core World to the Jiang family as a training ground.

The production lines for the C9-class spaceship, laser guns, and guard-type mechanical puppets were also moved to the Crystal Core World, leaving the Jiang family to develop commerce, as well as some energy technologies mastered by the mechanical race... How exactly the commerce should operate was to be managed by Orianna's clone left on Earth.

Orianna advanced to the Domain Lord level six months ago and is now at the 81st level of life gene, capable of creating 80 clones.

The silver-clad primordial spirit took away two bodies.

Ten bodies were left for the Jiang family.

The future development of the Jiang family, the Earth human migration plan, the work of blocking information about important figures, the work of Earth's defense... are all presided over by these 10 clones.

As for Orianna herself, who followed Jiang Zhe to the initial universe, she is currently only at the 69-fold life gene level.

This journey will take a very long time, and when they return, everything will have changed beyond recognition.

……

White Star, a cold wind blows, and snowflakes drift.

A group of people flew out of the hatch of the F-class spaceship of the Virtual Universe Company, led by a powerful world lord who was recognized by the lower-level primordial laws.

"Shawu greets Your Highnesses!" The lean old man bowed.

Jiang Zhe wasn't surprised to see this character from the original work.

I'm currently reading the error-free version! This is the first time I've published this novel.

Sha Wu looks almost exactly like an Earthling, so unless an immortal is sent to escort them, the task of picking up Sha Wu and Luo Feng will definitely fall on him.

Board the spaceship.

Sha Wu explained the situation of Virtual Universe Company to him and Luo Feng, and finally invited them to enter the virtual headquarters of Virtual Universe Company.

By this time, the spaceship had already traveled into the dark universe, and its speed had increased to nearly 20 times the speed of light.

……

Virtual Universe Headquarters Dimension.

As far as the eye can see, there is a mountain peak shrouded in clouds and mist, larger than an ordinary planet in reality, with a diameter of approximately 8.9 kilometers.

Jiang Zhe gazed at the towering mountain and murmured to himself, "This is Yuxiang Mountain. Unless I travel to the Origin Continent in the future, this will be my long-term area of ​​activity."

Sha Wu has come to pick him and Luo Feng up.

He led them around and introduced them to the basic situation in Yuxiang Mountain.

After finally seeing the massive island surrounded by lightning serpents in the clouds—Thunder Island, the gathering place of immortal powerhouses—Sha Wu first sent him to the Primitive Zone.

After passing through the public area, Sha Wu could not continue for long and could only point out the route to him. Afterwards, he would have to take Luo Feng to the Tai Chu District.

"Luo Feng, take some time to adjust to life in the Primordial District. If you have any major decisions to make and are unsure, you can discuss them with me, especially regarding cultivation."

"Once you join Virtual Universe Company, Babata's opinions can only be used as a reference. His vision can't keep up with your level, and his database needs to be updated. Don't let him lead you astray."

"Don't worry, senior brother, I'll come and ask you for guidance on cultivation." Luo Feng ignored Babata's hysterical screams in his mind and waved goodbye: "See you later, senior brother."

After saying goodbye to Luo Feng, Jiang Zhe walked along the bluestone path and arrived at the main entrance of the primitive area.

A magnificent main gate carved from ancient gray rock.

"Your Highness Jiang Zhe." The old man, with white hair and beard and dressed in a white robe, exuded a warm aura like the sun. "Welcome to the Primal Zone and become a member of the Primal Secret Realm."

"Thank you." Jiang Zhe smiled and nodded.

"I am Aitor, the Primitive District's Minor Affairs Administrator. Your Highness Jiang Zhe, please follow me. I will introduce you to the basic situation of the Primitive District."

……

The two flew in mid-air, with powerful fluctuations of laws occasionally emanating from below.

Noticing the strange look in Jiang Zhe's eyes, Ai Tuo Er explained the reason to him, informing him that many immortal gods lived here.

Each prince of the Primal Realm has a guard led by an Immortal Lord, and can also choose an Immortal Deity teacher who resides in their manor for an extended period.

"Then how should I choose a suitable teacher? Does Mr. Etoer have any experience to share with me?" Jiang Zhe seized the opportunity to ask for advice.

Aytor smiled slightly, "Your Highness Jiang Zhe, you don't need to worry about this. Normally, you would state your requirements and wait for the virtual universe system to assign you a teacher randomly. Or, you could apply using your connections. But you are different; a Marquis-level Immortal has already volunteered to become your teacher."

"Huh?" Jiang Zhe asked in surprise, tentatively, "Is this a good thing for me?"

"Your Highness, this is certainly a good thing! This immortal has a deep understanding of your psychic weapons and will surely bring you great benefits," Etholl revealed appropriately.

Jiang Zhe nodded and didn't ask any further questions.

Below lay a continuous stretch of manors, and Aytor continued to describe the situation in the primeval secret realm.

He flew over manors covering thousands of square kilometers, gradually slowing down until he landed in front of a vast manor.

"This Manor No. 114 will be your residence, Your Highness Jiang Zhe."

The manor's walls resembled a continuous mountain range, reminding Jiang Zhe of the Great Wall. The entire manor covered an area larger than the territory of any country on Earth.

However, considering the power of the realm lords, a manor with a suitable training ground should indeed be this large.
