Chapter 112 Meteorite Belt
"This is the spatial passage to the first battlefield."
The messenger walked to a water curtain. "The First Battlefield is a cosmic secret realm approximately 150 million light-years away. After countless years of exploration and fierce battles, the danger within the realm itself has diminished; the main threat comes from alien enemies. The First Battlefield has far more King-level Immortals than other battlefields, and the probability of their demise is also far greater."
The water curtain is a kilometer long and high.
Qi Yuan was the first to step into the water curtain, and the others followed suit.
Using the divine kingdom as a transit point, they were teleported to the 022nd military base, the first battlefield outside human territory.
"Welcome to the new recruits."
An immortal deity smiled and led them through different passages.
After passing through the passage, a moment later, we arrived at an elegantly decorated hall.
Qi Yuan estimated that there were about 600,000 realm lords and nearly 10,000 immortal gods here.
Keep in mind that this is a logistics base, just a place for soldiers to rest. In other words, there are countless times more soldiers on the battlefield outside.
"There's an immortal god among this year's recruits!"
"Hurry, hurry, don't let other teams snatch him up! We just went through a great battle, so it's a good time to recruit him to replenish our energy. Also, don't let those two Realm Lord generals go; maybe they can break through after a few years of training!"
"Captain, have you sent out emails to recruit the new immortal god?"
"Don't worry, Ashika, we are the King-level team. We haven't seen any other King-level teams return to base yet. We are the strongest, so I believe he won't refuse."
Qi Yuan's arrival prompted all the teams in Base 022 to take action.
Even on the most intense battlefield, immortal gods are still relatively rare.
Each one that appears sparks a frenzy of competition.
Countless emails arrived, each containing a description of their strength and achievements.
Some people simply come forward to recruit them themselves.
However, Qi Yuan refused them all.
"Sorry, I already have a team recommended by someone I know."
"Oh? I wonder what kind of team you joined, Brother Origin?"
An immortal king clad in silver armor approached and said, "The battles on this first battlefield are fierce. The stronger the team you join, the safer you will be."
In our Taiwo team, besides myself being a King-level Immortal, there are three Marquis-level beings and one Immortal God who is close to being a Marquis-level being.
Moreover, our team is very well-equipped, including martial artists, mentalists, illusionists, and pharmacists.
"So, how about joining us?"
"Origin" is Qi Yuan's pseudonym. In the universal language, the pronunciation and meaning of these two names are completely different, so there is no need to worry about others associating them with him.
"Is the team led by the Immortal King really that strong?"
As a voice interrupted his introduction, the Silver-Armored Immortal King turned his head and saw another small team arriving.
Leading the way was a woman in white and a bird-like beast, followed by a woman in black and a creature with two faces.
Judging from their life force, apart from the woman in white, the other three were not human.
The visitors were none other than Qi Yuan's Tu Yu body, Holy Light Feather, Demon Queen, and Two-Faced Marquis.
"Kunpeng King, Holy Light King?!"
Silver-armored King Immortal Taiwo's expression changed slightly. "I didn't expect it to be you."
He smiled awkwardly at Qi Yuan: "So, Brother Qi Yuan, you want to join the Holy Light King's team? Why didn't you say so earlier? Hahaha, let's exchange contact information and help each other out on the battlefields beyond the realms."
After adding Qi Yuan's contact information, he smiled humbly at Sheng Guangyu and the others, then turned and left.
Upon seeing this, the other recruiters dispersed and began searching for other targets.
Taiwo returned to the bar in the corner of the hall.
The others in the group all looked over: "Captain, how's it going? Have you recruited that immortal god yet?"
Taiwo shook his head, picked up his glass, and drank it all in one gulp: "I couldn't recruit them; they have connections to help them."
"What do acquaintances matter? On the battlefield beyond our borders, only strength matters. Can they compare to our team?"
"Didn't you recognize that team?"
Seeing his teammates' confused looks, Taiwo said, "They are the King-level squad that has risen to prominence on the Meteorite Belt battlefield in recent years."
Their record will scare you to death!
Do you see that woman in white?
She is none other than the Holy Light King who killed a high-ranking king of the Thunder Spring Clan.
And those two alien kings, the Kunpeng King and the Demon Queen, are said to have both single-handedly killed kings!
"hiss!"
The teammates all gasped in shock.
They're all ruthless!
Their team's record is far inferior to theirs; it's incomparable, utterly incomparable.
"Captain, look! Look! That newly arrived immortal god is actually walking with his arm around the waist of the Holy Light King, ahead of the Demon Queen and the Two-Faced Marquis. He seems to hold a high position!"
One of the immortals who had been granted a title secretly transmitted his voice, his tone excited.
The people in the hall watched Qi Yuan and his group leave, feeling extremely surprised.
Taiwo transmitted his voice, "It seems that 'Origin' is very powerful, and probably has a deep background. Luckily, I got his contact information. We must keep in touch in the future; who knows, he might save our lives someday."
"Captain's insight is brilliant! He's truly farsighted!" The team members all gave him a thumbs up.
Qi Yuan and his group arrived at the rest area specially arranged by the military base.
This place has been transformed by the power of the world; every corner is a small world.
It has all kinds of facilities.
After dealing with their spoils and changing their equipment, they set off again.
The spaceship flew out of the military base's passageway. Looking through the spaceship's virtual exterior view, one could see that the massive war base was completely covered by a layer of colorful energy shield.
This grotesque war base is millions of kilometers in diameter, equivalent to the size of the sun.
A colorful energy shield, mysterious and powerful solidification law patterns, mechanical cannon muzzles hundreds of kilometers in diameter, densely packed channel points, countless energy points...
One can only imagine how breathtaking it is to see it up close!
"How spectacular!"
Even though they had seen it more than once, they still couldn't help but sigh in amazement.
The spaceship gradually moved away from the war base, and they each logged into the virtual universe and began their cultivation.
Especially the Demon Queen and the Two-Faced Marquis, they are just like Saint Light Feather when he first joined the Virtual Universe Company, their strength is in the period of explosive growth.
Back in the Abyss of Purgatory, they were able to hone their skills through trial and error, constantly refining their techniques through battle.
After joining Virtual Universe Company with Qi Yuan, the resources and secret techniques available to them were far superior to what they had before.
After honing their skills on the extraterritorial battlefield, their abilities have greatly improved.
"Teacher, this is a secret technique of the Beast God's Path that I created in my Tu Yu body. Please give me your guidance."
Qi Yuan arrived at the virtual temple of the Lord of Darkness.
Swish!
His wings spread out, merging with the wings of the Wu slayer, and with a sudden tremor, they tore through the void, slicing through this space as gently and naturally as cutting tofu.
Only very faint traces remained in the void.
This move was created by Qi Yuan through comprehending the secret patterns on the wings of the Wu Emperor and integrating them into his own Path of the Beast God, in battle after battle.
The Wu-killing Wings are a weapon that Qi Yuan will use for many years to come, so naturally he must make the most of its advantages.
Therefore, Qi Yuan's special moves were all developed around the idea of killing Wu Yuyi.
From then on, Tu Yu's ultimate moves were all developed around the Wu-killing wings, while the human clones were developed around the "New Heavenly Evolution Sword".
This is also a common shortcut for powerful beings in the universe to create their own techniques: developing ultimate moves around their own treasures.
The ability to skillfully use weapons is an instinct of intelligent life.
Developing ultimate techniques around treasures not only reduces the difficulty significantly, but also maximizes the power of treasures. Furthermore, it allows for reverse engineering through secret methods, providing feedback to the understanding of laws.
Qi Yuan's move has a touch of returning to simplicity; it looks ordinary, but its power is actually several times greater.
"Not bad, you've mastered the basics of wing attack techniques. I'll design a special opponent for this clone of yours. I believe that after a thousand or two thousand years of honing your skills and overcoming your weaknesses, you'll definitely reach the pinnacle of mastery."
The Lord of Darkness nodded in approval with satisfaction.
Next, the Lord of Darkness gave his human avatar some pointers on swordsmanship.
In terms of swordsmanship, Qi Yuan already possesses the talent of the Dugu Qiubai character card. Even before entering the outer battlefield for honing his skills, his mastery is already on par with Tu Yu's wing attack secret technique.
Under the arrangement of the Lord of Darkness, Qi Yuan's training in the virtual universe was divided into three parts.
The first part is the secret method for refining human clones.
The second part is the secret method for tempering the body of the Feathered One.
The third part is about tempering one's mind and will.
The first two parts hone his energy attack techniques, while the third part involves illusion attacks.
When combined, they form the complete Illusion Warrior's Secret Technique.
Boom!
At this moment, Qi Yuan is facing the phantom left behind by the Lord of Darkness in the virtual universe.
Even if it was just a phantom, the immense will it exuded was enough to push his will to the brink of collapse.
"Child, go to sleep, go to sleep."
A series of soft voices echoed in his mind, trying to hypnotize him.
In a daze, Qi Yuan seemed to have returned to his previous life.
That ordinary world, without anything extraordinary.
He met his parents, relatives, friends, and classmates.
They were so kind and warm that he was captivated and didn't want to wake up.
"Was it Zhuangzi's dream of a butterfly, or not?"
His gaze was vacant as he murmured softly.
"Son, what are you muttering about? Come and eat." His mother's voice came from the kitchen.
The familiar flavors on the dinner table stirred up waves in his gradually fading memories.
His father was always silent, yet he cared for him without words.
His mother's nagging made him feel warm.
"It's been so long since I've tasted this familiar flavor. Dad, Mom, I should go back now."
"Son, what are you talking about?" The parents asked, their eyes filled with confusion.
Qi Yuan smiled slightly, a tear slid down his cheek, and the illusion shattered.
At this moment, his state of mind was more harmonious and clear, unlike before when it was just a talent bonus brought by the character card.
Clang!
The sword flashed, its brilliant light piercing the darkness.
He drew his sword against the phantom of the Lord of Darkness, facing death with a will to live.
The intense mental pressure caused his vision to go black, and he fell out of the virtual universe.
"Huff huff..."
Qi Yuan was pale and panting heavily.
His genetic energy was almost depleted, but his eyes were unusually bright and piercing.
He felt that his will had made great progress again.
He had only just reached the level of a Cosmic Venerable, but now he has reached the level of a High Cosmic Venerable.
"Husband, what's wrong?"
Saint Light Feather was taken aback and asked with concern.
They quickly looked around warily, wondering what kind of inexplicable attack Qi Yuan had suffered that could pass through the spaceship so silently and without them noticing at all.
"It's alright. I'm just tempering my will under the teacher's arrangement."
His voice was weak but filled with joy as he took out a fruit of life and swallowed it.
Seeing that Qi Yuan was starting to recover, they didn't ask any more questions.
"My lord, the asteroid belt is approaching soon. Prepare for battle."
The asteroid belt is a remnant of the great battle between powerful beings from various races in the universe when the first battlefield was opened.
The First Battlefield was originally the territory of the Starlight Clan.
The Star Clan is born from the stars and is naturally able to absorb the power of the stars, resulting in extremely rapid growth.
The Star Race has all sorts of strange forms, including flesh-and-blood life forms, rock-like life forms, and energy-based life forms, so it can't really be considered a single race.
However, at that time, a cosmic ruler was born from the stars, united the Star Clan, and formed a race.
Later, for reasons unknown, the cosmic ruler of the Starlight Clan was besieged and killed by the four peak clans, leading to the annihilation of the Starlight Clan.
Nowadays, life forms born among the stars are no longer called Star Races, but have formed individual races based on their unique characteristics.
The meteorite belt is a secret realm formed after the continent where the Starlight Clan once lived was broken.
Treasures left behind after the great war occasionally appear in the ruins, including fragments of precious and supreme treasures, as well as the treasures of the Star Clan.
Therefore, there are many powerful kings here, and the battles are the most intense.
"My lord, the laws of the universe are in disarray over the Divine Axe Canyon, which will greatly interfere with the probes. We must be careful."
Last time, they killed an Immortal King of the Thunder Spring Clan and obtained a treasure map from him, which recorded the Starlight Clan's specialty treasure, "Star Marrow".
Star Marrow can increase the gene count of light attribute cultivators and can also modify them towards the direction of the Starlight Clan, potentially transforming them into complete Starlight Clan members.
True Astral beings can absorb the light of stars to restore their immortal divine power, essentially possessing a basic version of a primal treasure at any time.
Although its efficiency is far inferior to that of true primordial treasures, it is not only countless times faster but also countless times more economical than conventional methods of restoring divine power.
Therefore, their main purpose for this trip was to explore the Divine Axe Grand Canyon for treasure.
This is a canyon spanning tens of millions of kilometers, cleaved by a massive axe beam, and countless powerful individuals venture into it to seek treasures.
