Swallowing the Stars: Cultivate to Become Stronger.

Chapter 176

Inside the lounge of a standard E9-class spaceship, Luo Shen sat leisurely on the sofa, holding a steaming cup of tea.

Yan Na sat quietly to the side.

The walls of the lounge displayed information about various teams within a 10 billion kilometer radius of the spaceship. Given the advanced level of the detection equipment on Luo Shen's spaceship, those alien powerhouse teams would be completely unable to detect their presence.

He bought this detector using the detectors he had previously purchased, the detectors from the mechanical race's immortal spaceship, and some additional cash.

Let alone within this area.

Even in the entire extraterrestrial battlefield, including those super-powerful kings, there might not be anyone with a better detector than him.

Suddenly, Luo Shen frowned as the virtual universe system sent him an email.

Consciousness connects to a virtual universe network.

On the battlefield outside the domain, the vast majority of the time, one needs to connect to the virtual universe with their consciousness. After all, the military merit system itself is still relatively rudimentary. If one wants to know about comrades and allies in the surrounding area at any time, the virtual universe is still the best option.

Not to mention, it must be activated during combat to keep the virtual universe network synchronized.

Only in this way can the battle be monitored and military achievements be determined.

Guided by thought, emails from the virtual universe played on the screen on the wall, taking up half of the screen.

The message came from his ninth senior brother, Venerable Golden Axe.

"Junior brother, I just received news that you have done great things on the battlefield outside the domain. However, I have also learned from other friends that the king-level powerhouses of the three major factions of the Mechanical Race, the Insect Race, and the Demon Race are all eager to kill you."

Although my junior brother is exceptionally talented, he has achieved his current strength in just a few hundred years, making him truly the number one genius of our human race.

However, these powerful figures on the extraterritorial battlefield have all lived for millions or tens of millions of epochs, and their strength should not be underestimated. Each of them has hidden trump cards. In my humble opinion, junior brother, you can retreat for the time being and do not need to confront them head-on.

After all, his junior brother was only at the realm master level, and he had already suffered a lot of losses due to his foundation.

"I've already mentioned it to our teacher. The Hongmeng Alliance will create two identity accounts for you: 'Silver Feather King' and 'Blade King.' Your identity as Silver Feather King has already been exposed, so you can temporarily roam the outer battlefield as Blade King. I hope you won't act impulsively and fall into the traps of other factions."

It's clear that Venerable Golden Axe was very careful with his wording in this email.

After all, Luo Shen is currently at the height of his success, having earned the title of Silver Feather King at a young age, especially as a World Lord. If he were to be forced to suppress him as a senior brother, Luo Shen might develop a rebellious mentality.

Geniuses are all proud!

The more you forbid them from doing something, the more likely they are to rebel.

Therefore, Venerable Golden Axe specifically addressed Luo Shen's current weaknesses from the perspective of Luo Shen's interests, thus giving Luo Shen a way out, since Luo Shen's weakness stemmed from a short period of cultivation rather than a lack of inherent strength.

The subsequent mention of the Chaos City Lord was also intended to let Luo Shen know that his teacher was already aware of the matter and had taken appropriate action.

Luo Shen guessed.

This email was even sent by Venerable Golden Axe at the behest of the Chaos City Lord.

Otherwise, the fact that the Hongmeng made an exception for him would not be so simple. Only someone of the Chaos City Lord's status and position would have the ability to help him conceal his identity as the "Silver Feather King" or even create a second false identity.

Luo Shen chuckled lightly: "Teacher Chaos has really gone to great lengths for my good-for-nothing disciple."

In addition, Luo Shen also noticed another email.

This message came from the military merit system and concerns the exchange of military merits. Luo Shen hadn't paid attention to it before, but he'll definitely read it today.

After completing the army's killing mission, one becomes a "free agent" and has the right to exchange for treasures or money. The exchange rate is 10 military merits for 1 Hunyuan unit.

Because of Luo Shen's status, he can also choose to exchange it for 1 point.

In short, he can use the military merits accumulated in the military system to exchange for treasures, or he can exchange them for points or money, which can then be redeemed in the treasure vault of the virtual universe.

Because of the battle in the Shattered Rock Region, in which they massacred the alien immortals, Luo Shen and Yan Na accumulated more than a trillion military merits.

Although these military merits are not much compared to the spoils of war, if you continue to accumulate them, you can exchange them for some valuable treasures. Good things often appear in the army's military merit system.

Unlike the treasure trove of Virtual Universe Company.

The treasures in the military merit system fluctuate constantly. As long as a strong person exchanges for them, the number of treasures will increase or decrease. Some strong people will also sell the treasures they have obtained to the military merit system to exchange for military merits, which can then be used to acquire advanced secret manuals.

These treasures will also appear in the military merit system's treasury, available for soldiers to exchange.

After reading the email, Luo Shen immediately closed the email system and then opened the star chart.

After becoming a free agent, the military merit system sent Luo Shen the latest star map of the 'Seventh Battlefield' so that the warriors of the human faction could be invincible in battle.

"Starry Sky Map"

Luo Shen sat on the sofa, looking up at the projection formed in front of him.

The three-dimensional virtual projection forms a star map. The star map of the entire Seventh Battlefield is very complex, with countless special zones, such as the 'Shattered Rock' and 'Flame Sacrifice Continent', which number in the tens of thousands. There are also hundreds of millions of other areas that are even lower in level than the Shattered Star Zone.

Those regions have very few powerful individuals; they are generally within the scope of activities of realm lords, domain lords, and universe-level beings.

With Luo Shen's strength, those areas held no appeal for him. Not only were they not challenging, but more importantly, the rewards they offered were far less than those in areas like the Broken Rock.

The number of immortal gods is small, making them incredibly difficult to find and inefficient to hunt.

Only high-level combat zones like Shattered Rock and Flame Sacrifice Continent are more suitable for Luo Shen to fight, since with his current combat strength, he can hold his own against peak-level Kings without using his trump cards.

However, he had almost completely wiped out the area of ​​broken rocks.

Furthermore, with his identity exposed, a large number of King-level experts have gathered here. King-level experts, who were originally quite rare, are now as common as common goods in the Shattered Rock Region. They are not exactly everywhere, but they are not rare either.

As far as Luo Shen knew, even super-kings like the Seven Swords King and the Black Shaving King had appeared in that area.

Therefore, Luo Shen does not plan to go and join in the fun for the time being.

He's not Luo Feng; he hasn't cultivated the Nine Tribulations Secret Manual, so he can't use soldier armor, general armor, or imperial armor. Without the support of basic power, even if his understanding of the laws is high, he can only barely fight against a King-level expert.

Unless he is willing to use his Mind's Eye Blade, even with the help of the Skull Battle Blade, he would hardly be a match for a King-level expert.

Therefore, Luo Shen planned to follow the advice of Venerable Golden Axe and use the identities of other powerful kings to hone his skills for a period of time. Once his understanding and cultivation of the laws of space reached a peak, he would complete the third part of the fusion method and reach the perfect gene level in his life gene level before he would go and cause trouble for those super kings.

Although the thousandfold increase in life gene level is significant, his basic strength is still hundreds or thousands of times lower than that of a true king-level powerhouse.

Not to mention, immortal powerhouses also have the ability to burn immortal divine power.

"The asteroid belt is similar to, or even slightly worse than, the rubble zone, so pass!"

"The Flame Sacrifice Continent is more powerful, but only within the main continent will there be King-level experts. So, if you choose the Flame Sacrifice Continent, it is not a bad place."

The main reason is that this is the closest high-level combat zone within the surrounding combat area.

Just right.

Luo Shen was quite interested in the treasures of the sacrificial towers on the Flame Sacrifice Continent. If given the chance, he would like to get a share of it. It would be even better if he could also take the Purple Bell from the Purple Bell King's hands.

"However, the Purple Bell King is not well-known now and keeps a low profile. He usually travels back and forth between the Flame Sacrifice Continent and the Star Tower."

Luo Shen pondered, "Furthermore, the time I arrived is not at the original timeline, so whether the Purple Bell King will even come is still a question."

But Luo Shen did not force the issue.

Anyway, as long as the Purple Bell King appears on the Flame Sacrifice Continent, there will always be a chance.

The Flame Sacrifice Continent is an irregular continent with a maximum diameter of 1.8 light-years. Some continental fragments float around it. Any team that enters the Flame Sacrifice Continent is an elite team, after all, there are immortal gods leading the team.

Immortal deities are already standard equipment in these squads, and the number of Marquis-level Immortals accounts for one-third of them.

As for the King-level experts, their numbers are fewer, but each one is quite terrifying, with their own unique skills. There is no base for the survival probability of immortal gods in this area.

Wow!

The spaceship's alloy doors opened automatically, and Luo Shen and Yan Na entered the control room. At the same time, Luo Shen instructed, "100% virtual exterior view."

The starry sky outside can be clearly seen.

Whoosh!

The scenery outside was receding into the distance as the E9-class alloy spaceship rapidly sped toward the vast continent it was heading to.

"This continent is truly vast!"

Luo Shen stood in the control room, looking down at the vast, seemingly endless land below: "Even a single fragment of land cannot be seen to the end."

Yan Na laughed and said, "Of course. With the diameter of this continent, even at sub-light speed, it would take more than half a year to fly across it. Although the previous rocky area also had such a large area of ​​activity, it was composed of a large amount of broken planetary debris. It was not as shocking as this continent."

"Indeed, only in the secret realms of the universe can one see such a vast floating continent."

Luo Shen sighed.

In the primordial universe, where could there be such a massive continental celestial body? Normally, celestial bodies are spherical in shape, formed by the gravitational pull generated by their internal core.

However, this is an extraterrestrial battlefield, a vast cosmic secret realm, so the rules of the original universe do not apply here at all.

Like a deep abyss of purgatory.

Just as Luo Shen and his companion were feeling sentimental, the spaceship's detector suddenly emitted a beeping warning sound.

"Master, we have received an emergency distress signal," the spaceship's AI voice announced on the control panel screen.

Luo Shen let out a soft "hmm," and then ordered, "Open it and let me see."

Suddenly, a fierce battle scene appeared on the screen in front of the control panel. The opponents were several Marquis-level experts. One side consisted of two humans, who, judging from the intensity of the battle, were at least at the high-level Marquis level. On the other side were four demon immortals, led by a demon royal immortal with two thick forelegs, his body covered in scales, the surface of which was covered with snow-white armor, and two sharp horns pointing proudly towards the sky on his ferocious head. He looked like someone not to be trifled with.

Of the four immortal demons, the one from the royal family of the demon race had reached the peak of the Marquis level, while the other three were all at the high-level Marquis level.

At this moment, the human side is being overwhelmed and has almost no power to fight back.

If it weren't for the fact that they had both achieved immortality, and their excellent teamwork allowed them to block many attacks from the immortal members of the demon royal family, they would probably have been captured by now.

Even so, they had already been thoroughly bullied and suffered considerable damage to their divine bodies.

If this continues, I'm afraid that before the human race's reinforcements arrive, they will be killed by these four immortal demons.

Given the strength of Luo Shen's detectors, they naturally couldn't detect the spaceship's whereabouts. However, because of the military system, which was able to know the locations of allies and comrades within a 1 million kilometer radius, they were able to discover Luo Shen's location.

"To meet is to be destined."

Luo Shen stretched his limbs, and an F-grade metal battle blade appeared in his hand. He grabbed it and said, "How can a strongman from the human camp be bullied by a mere demon? Wait for me here for a moment, I'll be right back."

Yan Na nodded.

With Luo Shen's strength, dealing with several marquis-level opponents would be no problem at all, even if some of them were members of the demon royal family.

boom!

The hatch opened rapidly, and Luo Shen floated into the air, leaped out, and then swooped down!

Above a vast, desolate mountain range on the mainland.

The two sides that were fighting suddenly felt a terrifying aura descending, leaving afterimages and moving at an alarming speed!

In order to conceal his identity, Luo Shen naturally hid his Wu-killing abilities, concealing them within his body without revealing them.

However, Luo Shen's own understanding of the laws was already extremely high. In addition, he had been cultivating the third part of the Refining Method during this period, which caused his life gene level to rise accordingly. His speed of understanding the laws was getting faster and faster, and he was probably close to reaching the nineteenth level of the Bridge to Heaven.

Furthermore, after obtaining the Wu-killing wings, Luo Shen has been studying his insights into the concept of 'speed' within the laws of space.

That's why Luo Shen's speed seems so terrifying.

The six immortals in the battle had different expressions upon seeing this scene. The two marquises on the human side were overjoyed, never expecting that a casual distress signal would bring such powerful reinforcements.

The four immortals of the demon race had a drastic change in expression.

Judging from Luo Shen's aura alone, he was a genuine King-level expert (his aura was concealed by the Wu-killing Wings). In addition, the speed that Luo Shen displayed further convinced them of his abilities.

The immortal member of the demon race immediately took out his spaceship, intending to run away with his three underlings.

But how could Luo Shen not be wary of this?

"Moyun!"

The 360 ​​main vines of the Moyun Vine burst forth instantly, binding the demon race's spaceship that was about to take flight. Even a moment's delay was enough for Luo Shen to capture them all!
