Choosing a Star-Level Secret Method

On the virtual screen, all sorts of top-tier talent secret arts were displayed in a dazzling array, many of which Shen Mu had never even heard of before.

However, with Shen Mu's clearance level, the powerful talent secret art users he could access were all from various powerful races, with no special life forms among them.

Of course, the talent secret arts of some peak bloodlines were even more powerful than those of many special life forms.

For example, the time-stopping ability of the Starry Sky Behemoth Hui Suo Behemoth, and the spatial crushing ability of the Tail Remnant Race's Royal Bloodline. In total, 26 powerful races were identified as naturally possessing ultimate moves of the higher laws as their innate talents.

Shen Mu's goal was also these races that could naturally unleash ultimate moves of the higher laws. Unleashing the ultimate moves was secondary; the most important thing was to improve his own law talent.

"Let's first check the biological materials sold in the store and see which ones I can afford."

Shen Mu opened the Virtual Universe Company's internal store, then clicked on the biological materials category and searched one by one according to the information he had just obtained.

"Tail Remnant Race Royal Bloodline, Planet-Level biological materials: 0, Star-Level biological materials: 0, Cosmic-Level biological materials: 0, Domain Lord-Level biological materials: 0, World Lord-Level biological materials: 3."

"Mosquito Snail Race Ancestral Vein..."

"..."

"Prison Race Demon Ancestor clan, Planet-Level biological materials: 0, Star-Level biological materials: 17..."

Shen Mu let out a long breath, calming his emotions. Thankfully, there were things he could afford.

Among these 26 peak bloodlines, 15 possessed the innate talent for the three ultimate moves of the space element. However, it was already incredibly difficult for peak bloodlines to conceive offspring, resulting in scarce populations and consequently, very few biological materials.

For instance, the Tail Remnant Race had virtually no interaction with the Human Race. They could only occasionally encounter Tail Remnant Race members on the outer battlefield. As for the Tail Remnant Race Royal Bloodline, it was even rarer, and biological materials were impossible to obtain.

"Fortunately, the Prison Race has deep ties with humans."

As a transmigrator, Shen Mu naturally knew that the Prison Race, like the Human Race, was one of the six great peak races in the universe.

Among the six great peak races, the Human Race, the Demon Race, the Zerg Race, and the Machine Race bordered each other, leading to the deepest animosity. While their relationships with the Crystal Race and the Prison Race were slightly better, they weren't exactly good.

The Prison Race, in particular, had the most complex composition among the six great races. Whether they were rock-based life forms, energy-based life forms, or flesh-and-blood life forms, as long as they were born in the perilous cosmic region known as 'Prison,' they were all classified as Prison Race.

Therefore, the Prison Race had many bloodlines and was the only race among the six great peak races to possess cosmic peak bloodlines.

The major peak races basically engaged in assassinating each other's talented juniors. This was why the Virtual Universe Store had materials from Star-Level Prison Race peak bloodlines.

Although Shen Mu's replication secret art had no level restrictions, as long as he had biological materials, he could analyze and replicate the opponent's talent secret art.

But the problem was that high-level materials were too expensive. Only Star-Level materials were affordable in the short term.

Among the 17 Star-Level materials from the Prison Race peak bloodline, the prices varied depending on their completeness.

The most expensive was a complete corpse, humanoid in shape, about a hundred meters tall, with a scorpion tail growing from its back. Its skin was pure black, covered in dark silver, peculiar secret patterns.

The cheapest was a piece of incomplete black skin, only palm-sized, but it still cost a staggering 3.5 Chaos Units.

"A small piece of Star-Level skin, less than one ten-thousandth of the total skin, costs 3.5 Chaos Units. It's outrageous."

However, this price was understandable, as the talent secret art possessed by the Prison Race peak bloodline was 'Teleportation,' one of the three ultimate moves of space.

The dark silver secret patterns on its body likely contained profound mysteries, greatly aiding in the comprehension of space laws.

"3.5 Chaos Units is still beyond my reach."

Shen Mu was once again troubled by money.

1 Chaos Unit was equivalent to 1 trillion Cosmic Coins. His entire fortune now was just over 10,000 Cosmic Coins.

His consciousness withdrew from the Virtual Universe, and Shen Mu looked at Babata, who was floating in mid-air.

Babata was currently selecting various treasures, calculating how to spend the 10,000 Cosmic Coins for the best value.

"Babata, can we talk about something?"

"Lord Babata is busy. If you have something to say, say it quickly." Babata's voice was excited, without even looking up.

Shen Mu spoke, "Babata, I want to undergo intensive training to break through to Star-Level as soon as possible, then head to the Giant Axe Fighting Arena in Qianwu Universe Country to participate in death matches."

Babata was taken aback and asked, "Why are you participating in death matches?"

"To make money. I want to buy a Domain Lord-Level bloodline evolution agent. Even with a discount, the price exceeds 100 Chaos Units."

"I figured the only way to quickly earn money is to go to the fighting arena for death matches, and then you can bet on me."

The Giant Axe Fighting Arena was a place where strong individuals fought each other, and others placed bets.

To participate in a fight, one had to be at least Star-Level, as the Giant Axe Fighting Arena had never allowed Planet-Level fights.

Investing and starting companies also took time to yield returns. Going to the fighting arena was the most profitable and also served to hone one's skills.

"No problem, intensive training is fine, and participating in death matches is also acceptable. Even when you reach Star-Level, there probably won't be many people stronger than you, which is perfect for honing yourself."

"When you or Luo Feng break through to Star-Level and inherit your teacher's account, I will sell some treasures through your teacher's account, and you won't have to worry about money anymore."

In the past, Babata would worry about Shen Mu's intensive training leading to an inability to improve his realm later on. But now that it was prepared to buy him a bloodline evolution agent, it no longer cared.

If he could break through to Star-Level sooner, the better. It didn't matter if he was stuck at Planet-Level Stage Nine; once the potion was obtained, everything would be resolved.

"However, you don't need to absorb Azure Wave Essence to slowly break through anymore. It's too inefficient."

After speaking, Babata brought up a virtual screen before Shen Mu.

Planet-Level Biological Evolution Chamber and accompanying nutrient solution, priced at 3,000 Cosmic Coins.

3000 Cosmic Coins, when converted, falls between 10 to 15 billion Black Dragon Coins.

This price is absolutely outrageous. Considering that 5 billion Black Dragon Coins is more than enough to purchase a Star-Level Nine martial artist slave.

"I plan to have both you and Luo Feng soak in nutrient fluid and directly evolve to the peak of Planet-Level Nine."

Two days later, two sets of Planet-Level evolution equipment and 1000 Mu Ya Crystals were delivered to the storage base on Yan Lin Star, which is 210,000 light-years away from Earth.

Since Earth's coordinates are obscured by spatial secret arts, a transfer station is necessary for purchasing resources, requiring Shen Mu and the others to retrieve them personally.

The closest storage base to Earth that was currently listed for sale was Yan Lin Star.

That same day, Shen Mu piloted the Black Dragon Mountain Spaceship and left Earth once more.
