Devour: Emperor Yan

High in the sky.

A giant sphere of light floated high in the distant sky, radiating light and illuminating the entire realm within a realm.

Rumble~

The waterfall, with a drop of over 100 meters, crashes down into the deep pool below.

The pool of water exuded a faint chill.

a moment.

Wow~

Suddenly, six figures burst out of the water and landed on the ground by the pool.

It was Lin Kun and his group of six.

"Finally, another great harvest." Thor glanced at the huge sphere of light hanging high in the sky above him and sighed, "These past few days have been driving me crazy with anxiety."

"The cosmic crystals distributed throughout this realm within a realm, especially in these outer areas, are scattered and without any pattern. Sometimes we find several cosmic crystal locations in a row, and sometimes we don't find any for a period of time. This is normal." Lin Kun wiped his slightly damp hair and glanced around.

The surrounding mountains and forests were completely silent, with no other creatures or life present.

"Take a break. You've been running around these past few days, you must be exhausted," Luo Feng said.

"it is good."

The group found a large rock nearby, sat down, and then took out their food to share.

Being in this kind of environment, there's naturally not much good food to eat; you mostly eat dry rations.

"Big brother, how many cosmic crystals have we obtained in the past few days?" Hong asked.

"I estimate it's around 10 cubic meters," Lin Kun said, flipping his hand to take out a large bottle of beverage and pouring a glass for everyone.

"10 cubic meters!" Luo Feng and the others all smiled.

This is an exciting number.

These past few days have been tiring, but the rewards have been amazing.

From the moment they entered the realm within a realm, their group began a thorough search and excavation of its outer perimeter.

Unfortunately, this inner world is just too vast, with a length and width of nearly a million kilometers!

Such a vast world is simply impossible to completely explore.

Even if they could actually sweep through it, they would only have explored the surface area of ​​the entire Inner Realm, up to 20 kilometers deep.

The thickness of the earth in this inner world far exceeds 20 kilometers.

It would probably take them thousands of years just to sweep through the top 20 kilometers of the earth!

So, faced with such a large area, they had no way to search it and could only rely on luck.

Sometimes there are continuous harvests, and sometimes there are no harvests even after traveling a long distance.

Over the course of several days, they harvested approximately 10 cubic meters of cosmic crystals.

"100,000 cubic meters of cosmic crystals is equivalent to 100 million cosmic coins, or over 300 billion Qianwu coins!"

The group happily calculated how much of a share they each had.

Lin Kun and Luo Feng each hold 40% of the share, meaning they can each receive approximately 130 billion Qianwu coins.

Hong and Lei Shen each received a 10% share, which would amount to approximately 40 billion Qianwu coins each.

This is astonishing, because most cosmic-level powerhouses don't have this kind of wealth.

"The first account I could get when I reached the Hengxing level was only 100 billion Qianwu coins. Now, in just a few days, I have earned more than 1300 billion Qianwu coins! Discovering a new world is really a huge profit..." Luo Feng thought to himself.

On my first space adventure, I never expected to encounter such a wonderful thing.

Those guys are really incredibly lucky.

......

"Brother, logically speaking, by now powerful figures should have already entered the Realm Within a Realm and cleared the area, driving us away, right?"

Hong frowned and said, "But until now, there hasn't been a single piece of news or sign."

"It is quite strange." Luo Feng nodded slightly. "Although the Thunder World is vast, for cosmic-level powerhouses, or domain lords and world lords, if they travel at full speed and are not afraid of ferocious beasts, they can probably traverse most of the Thunder World in less than a day."

"Yes, several days have passed, and we haven't seen any cosmic-level powerhouses descend, let alone domain lords or world lords," Thor added.

"It's probably due to certain rules, since Thunder World is the testing ground for apprentice mercenaries, and only adventurers of the Constant Star level are allowed to enter..."

Lin Kun pondered for a moment and said, "I suppose these powerful figures in the Black Dragon Mountain Star Region wouldn't dare to defy the rules of the Cosmic Mercenary Alliance."

"Is that so?" Luo Feng and the others seemed to be thinking about this.

This explanation is quite plausible.

A mere realm within a realm is probably not even worth considering by a behemoth like the Cosmic Mercenary Alliance, and naturally, it's not enough to warrant them making an exception.

Rules are rules.

But the so-called rules can indeed be broken.

However, it depends on the situation and whether it's worth breaking.

A mere realm within a realm is clearly not enough to make the Cosmic Mercenary Alliance abandon its ongoing trainee mercenary assessment.

These powerful figures in the Black Dragon Mountain Starfield probably don't have that much face.

"Why think so much? Since they haven't come in, let's not be polite and continue mining for cosmic crystals. If we miss this opportunity, it'll be hard to find another one like it in the future," Thor grinned.

"Haha, that makes sense!" Hong and Luo Feng laughed expectantly.

Since the powerful figures aren't coming in, they naturally don't need to be polite.

Keep digging; every extra day you dig, an astonishing fortune will be in your pocket.

......

in the universe.

Besides ability, wealth is also very important.

If you have money, you can buy basically over 99% of things.

Planets, resources, treasures, slaves, spaceships, battle suits, weapons, arcane arts...

Even the quota for enlightenment in Chaos City, or the body of a special life form!

You can buy it as long as you have enough money.

And as long as you spend enough money, you can force yourself to achieve immortality.

Of course, the premise is that you must have the ability to protect these assets and transform them into your own strength.

Otherwise, you'll just be seen as a giant granary and a piece of fat meat.

......

"Have you rested enough? If you have, let's set off and continue picking up money!" Lin Kun tossed the empty drink bottle in his hand and stood up.

"Let's go, let's keep picking up money!" Luo Feng's eyes shone brightly, filled with a desire for wealth.

"Haha! Let's go!" Hong and Thor did the same.

As natives who had only recently entered space from Earth, the three of them naturally wanted to make money like crazy.

Only with sufficient wealth can the Earth have a better future under their leadership and assistance.

The three of them are now the pioneers and trailblazers of humankind on Earth!

"Walk!"

The six-person team transformed into six streaks of light and, guided by the detection instruments, continued their drilling excavation.

......

Azure Star.

With the joint blockade by the two holy lands, four major organizations, and sixteen major families, no other star-level adventurers are allowed to enter Canglan Star or the Thunder World.

Subsequently, the star-level armies to which these forces belonged arrived.

After discussion, these forces have allocated their respective quotas for entry.

For example, each of the sixteen major families can send up to 1 star-level adventurers into the area.

Each of the four organizations can send up to 20 star-level adventurers.

Each of the two holy lands can send a maximum of 50 star-level adventurers...

All of these star-level troops accepted the trainee mercenary assessment missions in accordance with the rules.

And almost all of them are at the ninth level of the Hengxing star!

It could be a small team of dozens of people, a team of thousands, or even a large army of tens of thousands.

A large fleet of ninth-tier Hengxing-level ships arrived in droves, almost blotting out the sky and obscuring the entire Canglan Star.

They lined up and filed into the Thunder World!

On the contrary, many adventurers who were originally prepared to participate in the apprenticeship assessment were stopped at the outskirts and could not reach the Alliance headquarters at all.

This vast army entered the Thunder World, and almost no danger or ferocious beast could stop them.

Wherever the army went, almost nothing grew.

Even the dust storms of the Death Desert, faced with such sheer numbers and power, were like a gentle breeze, unable to cause a ripple.

More than 200 million level-nine troops of the Eternal Star level thundered in, completely flattening the entire Death Desert. Every grain of sand had to be neatly lined up, let alone the mere dust storm.

These massive armies are a true storm, unstoppable wherever they go!

This is what makes the native Tuodi so terrifying; for them, mobilizing a million-star army is as easy as breathing.
