Swallowing the Stars: Cultivate to Become Stronger.

Chapter 146 Promise

In the Blood Continent, in a void far from the ruins of the ancient gods.

The mechanical ship was hovering quietly.

Inside the spaceship's control room, Yan Na sat on the sofa, curiously observing Luo Shen opposite her, and asked, "So you really are a genius from the extraterrestrial race, but which one is your true self?"

The person appearing before Yan Na at this moment was none other than Luo Shen's true form as an Earthling.

Luo Shen smiled and countered, "Does that matter?"

Yan Na was stunned.

Indeed, it doesn't matter which one is Luo Shen in real life. What matters is that Luo Shen didn't betray her trust and risked his life to help her.

"What are your plans for the future?"

Luo Shen asked.

Since he had already helped Yan Na escape the Blood King's attack, he naturally couldn't just stand by and watch her fall into the hands of the Immortal Temple.

But Luo Shen wasn't sure if Yan Na would go with him.

After all, Blood Continent was her true home. If she had a choice, who would want to leave their homeland?

What are your thoughts?

Yan Na didn't rush to answer. Instead, she looked intently at Luo Shen and smiled, "Little brother, do you want me to stay on the Blood Luo Continent, or do you want me to go with you?"

For Yan Na, there was nothing left in the Blood Continent that she would want to stay.

The exposure of the Beast God Altar means that some members of the tribe have already fallen, whether they have been enslaved or have sought refuge with the Immortal Temple. This proves that there is no place for her on the Blood Luo Continent anymore.

Despite her current strength, she could go anywhere in the world.

Upon hearing Yan Na's question, Luo Shen scratched his head.

To be honest, he naturally wanted Yan Na to go with him. After all, she was a genuine King-level expert. Although she had always wanted to take back the Beast God's Horn, she hadn't actually used violence against him, had she?

Furthermore.

Previously, when facing the Blood King, Yan Na told him to leave without hesitation. Her act of facing the Blood King alone did indeed earn him some goodwill, and he really didn't want to leave Yan Na in the fire pit any longer.

What if I said I hoped you would come with me?

Luo Shen tentatively asked.

Yan Na gave Luo Shen a meaningful look.

That look in her eyes gave Luo Shen goosebumps. Just as Luo Shen was about to speak, Yan Na suddenly asked, "If I go with you, what kind of identity can you arrange for me?"

Luo Shen thought the other party was asking if he could persuade the Virtual Universe Company.

After all, people from the Blood Continent almost never return alive once they leave the 18th layer of cloud energy, so it's normal for Yan Na to worry about the danger to her life if she goes with him.

After all, she is an immortal, and an immortal of the Blood Luo Continent.

Joining Virtual Universe Company and gaining its recognition is no easy feat.

"rest assured!"

Luo Shen patted his chest and guaranteed, "I can't guarantee anything else, but arranging an identity for you is a very simple matter. Just wait, I'll go and arrange it for you right now!"

Without waiting for Yan Na to speak, fearing she might change her mind, he directly entered the virtual universe.

Looking at Luo Shen, who had his eyes closed and was completely unguarded, Yan Na suddenly chuckled, her smile as bright as a hundred flowers blooming in spring: "Just arranging an identity? Your sister is quite greedy."

Virtual universe, atop Thunder Island.

Since the last time the Lord of Chaos summoned him, Luo Shen had not been here for a long time. This time, because he had urgent business, he went directly to the Lord of Chaos's temple at the top of the mountain without announcing his arrival.

His status as a direct disciple allowed him to proceed without any obstacles.

"Master, your disciple requests an audience!"

Outside the temple, Luo Shen's voice spread through the Force and entered the temple.

"Shh~" The sound of clothes rubbing against the ground came from the temple. The Chaos City Lord, dressed in a gilded robe, walked out of the temple with a kind face. He was probably the one of his three avatars who was in charge of the headquarters of the Virtual Universe Company.

"What is it?"

The Chaos City Lord's voice, full of laughter, came: "This is the first time in all these years that you have taken the initiative to see me. You must have something important to discuss."

have to say.

The Lord of Chaos City has a truly sharp eye; he saw through Luo Shen's purpose for this trip at a glance.

Luo Shen also noticed the teasing in the Chaos City Lord's tone. After all, as his disciple, he rarely thought to visit his teacher. It was rare for him to take the initiative, and he must have something to ask his teacher for help.

But Luo Shen was thick-skinned enough not to care.

He directly brought up Yan Na's situation.

He made no attempt to hide anything from the Lord of Chaos, even revealing that he had obtained the Horn of the Beast God in the Beast God Altar space.

If it were any other universe ruler, he would have to think it over.

But the Lord of Chaos City had been tested by the original plot. He could even offer the most powerful treasure right in front of him to other universe lords, so naturally he wouldn't covet a mere horn of a beast god.

"Oh? The Horn of the Beast God."

The smile on the face of the Chaos City Lord faded slightly, and a hint of surprise appeared in his gaze as he looked at Luo Shen: "I didn't expect that you would obtain such an extraordinary opportunity on this trip to the Blood Luo Continent. The Beast God's Horn itself is a top-grade material for refining treasures. If there is an opportunity in the future, it may become a great help on your path to becoming a strongman."

It turns out that the Beast God's horn was hidden in the space of the Beast God's altar. No wonder they couldn't find it back then.

"As for the indigenous immortality—"

The Lord of Chaos City hesitated for a moment, his gaze falling on Luo Shen, and remained silent for a time.

They are natives of the Blood Luo Continent, and are even at the King-level Immortal realm.

Even with Luo Shen's strength, and despite being on guard, he might not be able to resist the opponent's soul control, given the vast difference between a cosmic-level being and a king-level immortal.

"Luo Shen, what are your thoughts?"

The Lord of Chaos City passed the buck back to Luo Shen, wanting to hear Luo Shen's opinion.

Given his status and position, let alone arranging for him to be a king, he could easily accept even a cosmic venerable. After all, the true pillars of humanity are the cosmic lords and the creators of the giant axe!

A title of immortality is nothing to stir up any trouble.

But the matter involved Luo Shen, his talented young apprentice. Although no one knew what methods Luo Shen had used to save another immortal king from death during the battle between the two immortal kings, he still managed to save him.

But for Luo Shen now, being granted the title of King of Immortality is indeed an uncontrollable bomb!

During his previous account, Luo Shen did not reveal the existence of the Mind-Eye Blade, which was his strongest trump card for survival. He would not even mention it to the Lord of Chaos City.

Upon hearing the words of the Chaos City Lord, Luo Shen also sensed the other party's concerns.

How to control it!

This is the key to whether he can keep Yan Na.

After all, his current strength is only at the cosmic level. With such strength, let alone controlling a King-level Immortal, even just being able to ensure that he is not enslaved would be a remarkable achievement.

"I am confident that I can keep Yan Na in check."

Luo Shen said.

As he said this, he looked directly at the Lord of Chaos City, as if to tell the Lord of Chaos City that he truly had this confidence.

The Lord of Chaos City did not rush to raise any objections.

Instead, he said, "The power of immortality is millions or even tens of millions of times stronger than the primal force at the cosmic level. Although I know that your will has reached the limit of immortality and is not far from the Venerable level, I am still worried."

What are you worried about?

Possession!

Luo Shen smiled and said, "This disciple has a talent for creating clones. I am a special fire-attribute life form called 'Crimson Flame Essence,' and Yan Na has always been in contact with this clone of mine."

Energy-based life forms are born without souls, so the concept of enslavement is irrelevant to them.

Upon hearing that Luo Shen possessed the ability to create clones, and that these clones were fire-attribute clones compatible with his own, the Chaos City Lord's eyes shone even brighter. He asked, "What level of life gene has your Crimson Flame Essence clone reached?"

Which is more terrifying: a powerful being with clones or one without?

The former is definitely the better choice!

Among the twelve peak bloodlines of the Starry Sky Beasts, the Golden Horned Beast is led by the Golden Horned Lord, who is the strongest member of the entire Starry Sky Beast race besides the progenitor.

Why?

It's because it has four clones, each of which is a super being at the level of a universe master. While others fight one-on-one, it fights four against one. If one can't beat it, it calls for two, and if two can't beat it, it calls for three or four!

Gang fight!

I'll exhaust the other side until they're worn out!

Moreover, energy-type clones usually have a life-saving talent, making them more survivable!

"A thousand times the level of life's genetic makeup!"

Luo Shen said.

Although the life genes of the Crimson Flame Fire Essence clone and the Water Spirit Ice Crystal clone could still improve as long as they had a source treasure with compatible attributes, Luo Shen did not show off.

After all, keeping some secrets for yourself is the best way to protect yourself.

"A thousand times the level of life's genetic makeup!"

Hearing this number, the Lord of Chaos City was even more satisfied. After all, before reaching the level of the Lord of the Universe, normal humans can at most raise their life genes to a level of a hundred times.

Generally speaking, the stronger one is, the easier it is to improve one's life genes.

But it also consumes more resources!

When one's strength is weak, it is more difficult to improve the level of one's life genes, but less cultivation resources are needed, and it is easier to improve one's strength in the future. Moreover, one's divine body is also larger than that of a strong person of the same level!

A large divine body is also an important symbol of a strong person!

"Luo Shen, your physical will has already reached the limit of the King-level, and you also have the talent of creating clones. If you could have a soul-type treasure to guard your sea of ​​consciousness, you should be able to be completely safe."

The Lord of Chaos thought to himself.

"In that case, you can arrange things for her," the Chaos City Lord said with a smile.

"Ah, me?"

Luo Shen stared in disbelief at himself. Such a powerful and immortal king was being directly assigned to be his bodyguard. Wasn't that a bit too extravagant?

Although he had always had this thought in his mind.

However, the Virtual Universe Company only assigned one Immortal Military Lord to serve as the Commander of the Guard for each member of the Primal Secret Realm. He already had a Commander of the Guard, and with the addition of Yan Na, this configuration is simply maxed out!

"What, you don't want it?" the Chaos City Lord asked with a smile.

Luo Shen shook his head vigorously, like a rattle-drum: "Yes, we absolutely have to! Only a fool wouldn't!"

"You, you."

The Lord of Chaos City smiled and pointed with his right finger.

Although it was indeed against the rules to arrange for Luo Shen to be granted the title of King and keep him by his side, Yan Na was brought back by Luo Shen after all, so it was not unreasonable for him to continue to keep her by his side.

Of course, another important reason is that those who have been granted the title of King do not have a low status in the company.

If we just randomly assign her a position, it might cause her dissatisfaction. After all, the Immortal King is already a top-tier powerhouse in the Blood Luo Continent, holding a high position.

But if we assign her to an extremely high position, that would be even more troublesome.

Other senior executives in the company will definitely have objections. How can a mere Immortal King be qualified to sit on equal footing with them? After all, the strength of the indigenous Kings has never been comparable to the super Kings that the company has carefully cultivated.

Rather than causing even bigger trouble in the future, it's better to just hand it over to Luo Shen.

Anyway, they were already familiar with each other, so there was a natural foundation of trust between them, and this could also be considered a reward for Luo Shen.

Luo Shen truly hadn't expected the Lord of Chaos City to make such an arrangement.

But since the matter has already been decided, he won't rashly change it. After all, it can only benefit him and not harm him, right?

Leave the virtual universe.

I told Yan Na the good news, thinking she would be a little unhappy, since being by his side was not as good as staying at the headquarters of the Virtual Universe Company.

Surprisingly, Yan Na readily agreed.

"You really have no objections?"

Luo Shen laughed and said, "Let me tell you, I'm just a little guy who hasn't even reached the Immortal realm yet, so I can't provide you with the resources you want. You'll have to rely on your own efforts for everything."

Unexpectedly, Yan Na smiled dismissively.

"You should keep your worthless junk for yourself. Only the Beast God's Horn is somewhat acceptable."

Yan Na's tone was quite loud.

Luo Shen probed, "You're just a prince, aren't you? Before you received the inheritance, you were almost humiliated by the Youta Tower. And now you dare to brag like this?"

Yan Na's behavior before and after was indeed unlike her usual self; it was as if she had suddenly become a different person.

Yan Na chuckled and said, "Isn't this all thanks to you? You've received the inheritance, so you have more confidence and speak more forcefully." But in her heart, she was secretly on guard, making sure she didn't get too carried away.

"By the way, what exactly is this inheritance you received?"

Luo Shen asked curiously.

To be honest, the effect of this inheritance is too strong.

In a short period of time, Yan Na's strength rose from the Immortal Army Lord level to the King level. Luo Shen initially thought it was the power of inheritance, but after her battle with the Blood Killing King, he realized that it was her true strength.

When asked about this, Yan Na seemed somewhat vague and reluctant to answer.

But Luo Shen was very interested in one of them.

"You said you can refine magical artifacts?"

Among the human race, there are not many people who can refine supreme treasures and are called treasure refiners. Even those who can refine heavy treasures or even sets of heavy treasures are only a very small minority. The vast majority of treasure refiners are like Huyanbo and Xirodo, whose peak is to create a weapon.

"Of course!"

Speaking of treasure refining, Yan Na said proudly, "Beast Gods are born to be the best treasure refining masters, but they are lazy by nature and don't like to move around, so they have wasted their talents."

"Oh~" Luo Shen nodded as if he understood but not quite.

He really didn't know any of this.

However, Yan Na's ability to refine magical artifacts was indeed a wonderful thing for him.

Especially since he obtained so many top-tier materials in the Beast God Altar space, if Yan Na could help him forge one or two top-tier or even treasure-level battle swords, it would greatly boost his strength.

Speaking of the Beast God Altar, Luo Shen thought of the clone that was still there.

Perhaps because the space was closed and they were in the ruins of an ancient god, the concentration in the space was gradually increasing over time, making it significantly more effective in tempering one's will than outside.

During this time, Mind's Eye has gained a lot of skill.

Barring any unforeseen circumstances.

He will not allow the Water Spirit Ice Crystal clone to leave this place anytime soon.

Although he still has no end in sight to advance to the Venerable level, at this rate, he might be able to acquire another Venerable-level technique in a few thousand years.

For thousands of years.

Even on a cosmic scale, this is not a very long time span.

The company's core group of cosmic-level geniuses have all cultivated for thousands of years, but even so, the vast majority of them have only passed the sixth or seventh level of the Bridge to Heaven.

"Let's go, let's go to the Heavenly Eclipse Palace first."

Luo Shen ordered the spaceship's intelligent system: "After all, the Blood Luo Continent is the territory of the Heavenly Eclipse Palace Master. We've been here for over a hundred years, so we should at least say goodbye before leaving."

Yan Na, of course, had no objections.

She's like a little shadow now, following Luo Shen wherever he goes.

******

Just to clarify, this Yan Na's identity is original.
