Mech Martial Practitioner Tian Qing, East Yan Ancient Clan
After Zhao Xing broke through to the Source Origin Realm, his combat power Yu Fei. Even during the three months on the Realm Boat, he made significant progress.
The test target star set up here by the Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom was very accurate, and he had no intention of keeping anything secret, so he immediately took out the Jiefa Luo.
"Wow, Four-World Realm Fa Luo, Brother Zhao is really generous!" Cen Qionghua exclaimed in amazement.
The Four-World Realm Fa Luo sells for 80 million, which is much more expensive than the Heavenly Traversal Staff he uses.
"You've only been at the Source Origin Realm for a year, and you can already use the Four Realm Dharma Luo?" Le Yao blinked, also somewhat curious.
Both she and Cen Qionghua possessed mid-grade World Star Dao Soldiers, but even though they were both mid-grade, their quality varied.
As a classic Daoist weapon, the Jiefa Luo is expensive, but its usage is also difficult.
Those who can use it are all experts, just like the Fangtian Painted Halberd is not something that just anyone can use.
"The Jiefa Luo is good at both offense and defense. The four-realm version means that it is proficient in the Four Laws of Wind, Rain, Thunder, and Cloud, and clouds. Otherwise, there would be no need to buy the Jiefa Luo." Cen Qionghua also looked at it seriously. Zhao Xing had only broken through to the Source Origin Realm a little over a year ago, so he really didn't have a concrete concept of Zhao Xing's combat strength.
I invited Zhao Xing to join my team for two reasons: firstly, we have some acquaintance, and secondly, I wanted to give him face.
Outsiders are unaware of the intricacies of inheritance; on the surface, Zhao Xing is Qing Yuzi's direct descendant!
"You can begin at any time," said the artifact spirit, Cang Yu.
Zhao Xing nodded slightly and moved instantly.
His original Dao body immediately erupted, with a Purple Moon appearing on his left shoulder and a Purple Yang appearing on his right shoulder.
In an instant, the whole world lit up.
"Holy crap, Dual-Origin Dao Body." Cen Qionghua's eyes widened.
"What, the Sun and Moon Shine Together?" Le Yao's beautiful eyes were also filled with shock.
In the year following Zhao Xing's breakthrough, they didn't spar much. On the few occasions they did, they all displayed the Purple Yang Dao Body and used spells based on the essence of the Solar Yang.
Looking at it now, I realize that Zhao Xing actually has Dual-Origin Dao Body.
"Good heavens, Brother Zhao! You're a real hidden talent! I'm so embarrassed!" Cen Qionghua thought bitterly. "I was acting like I was just doing a mission, but I never expected him to have Dual-Origin Dao Body!"
The difficulty of cultivating both Purple Yang and Purple Yin simultaneously is extremely high.
Cultivating only one type of power is relatively easy; most geniuses can master it smoothly. However, cultivating multiple types of power simultaneously increases the difficulty dramatically. The most challenging aspect is maintaining balance during the breakthrough process.
When the Lunar Yin or Solar Yang origin gains the upper hand, the origin power will quickly transform in that instant, and the acupoints in the body that were opened will close, ultimately resulting in a single origin Dao body.
Cultivating a single origin is already difficult; cultivating two origins simultaneously will inevitably waste time, and there is a high probability that all previous efforts will be wasted during the final breakthrough. Therefore, Dual-Origin Dao Body is extremely rare.
However, once successful, its power is immense.
Ordinary cultivation methods require 210 million star-shaped acupoints, Purple God Mansion cultivation methods require a single original Dao body and 420 million star-shaped acupoints.
The dual origins involve mobilizing the power of the origin through 840 million star acupoints, which has a great advantage in enlightenment and spellcasting!
Just like what Cen Qionghua is seeing now.
A bright moon and Solar Yang appeared on Zhao Xing's shoulder, and forty-eight Solar Terms Decree appeared at his waist!
Yin-Yang Dual Version Twenty-Four Solar Terms Decree!
The solar term order is the core of the Dao that will be born in the entire universe's Tian Shi sect of agriculture. The cultivation of the solar term order is included in both the Zi Yang and Zi Yin cultivation methods.
The dual origins of Yin and Yang enabled Zhao Xing to cultivate forty-eight paths.
This made Zhao Xing's Daoist temple extremely stable.
Although the target star is stationary, its light fluctuates, which is a form of interference.
Cen Qionghua watched very carefully. When Zhao Xing carried the sun and moon on his shoulders and the solar terms circled the heavens, the interference from the target star almost disappeared.
Increasing the stability coefficient is equivalent to indirectly increasing the power of the spell, which is also a form of amplification.
"If you cultivate your technique well, it's like having an extra World Star Dao Soldiers that stabilizes the void," Cen Qionghua remarked.
Afterwards, Zhao Xing unleashed his Origin Law, which was incredibly fast, thanks to the increased casting speed brought about by the technique.
The concepts of instantaneous casting of one spell and instantaneous casting of multiple spells are completely different.
"Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom!"
Zhao Xing unleashed his magic to bombard the target star.
He used all of them: Purple Wind, Fetal Breath, Dark Thunder Star, Yuan Magnetic Thunderstorm, Golden Body Erosion, Heaven Tide, Blood Cloud Boundary, and the Eight Gates Celestial Timing Source Technique, seven of which were offensive techniques.
The Jiefa Luo are transmitted layer by layer and amplified through the four origins within the World Star Dao Soldiers, increasing the power of each of Zhao Xing's Origin Law by five times.
"~" The target star shone brightly, its brilliance seemingly overshadowed by Zhao Xing.
A moment later, Zhao Xing stopped and flew back.
Cen Qionghua and Le Yao stared longingly at Cang Yu.
The spirit Cang Yu looked at Zhao Xing and nodded slightly.
"You're quite good; your overall combat strength has reached 41."
"To have such combat power at the early stage of the first realm is quite rare."
"My God! 41?!" Cen Qionghua's eyes widened in disbelief. "Doesn't that mean he can easily beat me?"
"My thirty-six clones are equivalent to controlling an entire band, and I'm at the late stage of the first realm, yet I'm still no match for Zhao Xing?" Le Yao's eyes widened.
The artifact spirit Cang Yu said, "Your Jiefa Luo is more defensive, with an amplification coefficient of no more than 5. If you choose the custom version, without reducing the stability coefficient, the amplification coefficient of the Four World Flow can reach up to 40."
"You Dual-Origin Dao Body, and your Dao field has an extremely strong ability to resist interference factors. In the future, you can consider replacing it with a custom-made one," the artifact spirit Cang Yu suggested.
The test has a time counter that calculates the average power and casting speed of spells within a specified time.
The difference between Zhao Xing's highest and lowest values is very small, proving that each of its attacks is very stable.
The spirit Cang Yu could naturally see that Zhao Xing had a strong ability to resist interference in his spellcasting, and that the current Jiefa Luo was not the limit of his control, so he gave this suggestion.
"Thank you, Spirit Master." Zhao Xing cupped his hands in thanks.
The suggestion was good, but it wasn't very useful.
The answer is always the same: no money.
A custom-made model with a 40x increase factor—that's incredibly expensive! He simply can't afford it right now.
"Zhao Xing, you've really been hiding your strength for a long time." Cen Qionghua ran over and punched Zhao Xing hard. "Overall combat strength rating: 41. With this kind of strength, why did you ask me and Le Yao to guide you?"
Zhao Xing laughed and said, "I haven't broken through to the next level for long, and I haven't tested it myself."
"I haven't tested it, but you've never said you have Dual-Origin Dao Body," Cen Qionghua said enviously.
"You didn't ask either," Zhao Xing laughed. Who would go all out when cutting?
Actually, he wasn't going all out in this test, since he didn't use the Earthly Advantage Faction technique or reveal the Vajra Ring.
In addition, the Source Origin Space also contains three rare Plant Soldier, plus the Cloud-Soaring Vine.
The strengths of the True Self Faction" and "Earthly Advantage Faction haven't even been taken into account yet, so there's no need to show off those.
Although Cang Yu explained the principle of the matching mechanism, he still decided to keep it a secret, which was purely a matter of habit.
Anyway, it's easy for this team to disband in the future. If they want to form another team later, they can come back for another rating.
"Brother Cen, it seems you won't be able to be the captain," Le Yao said with a smile. "Let Zhao Xing be the captain instead."
"Of course he should be the one," Cen Qionghua said with a smile. "Le Yao, Brother Zhao, I'm planning to cling to your coattails, so don't leave me behind! I know a bit about talismans, so I'll take care of the chores and hard work!"
"Le Yao, how about I give you a shoulder massage and a leg rub first?"
"Get out of my way," Le Yao Fairy said with a laugh.
Hua Zi was quick to understand and immediately relinquished his dominant position.
In fact, this test only measured the regular combat strength; Hua Zi and Le Yao must still have trump cards up their sleeves.
Bringing the two people into the team wasn't really a burden for Zhao Xing; he immediately created the team after leaving the testing space and added the two.
"The team has been created. I created a five-person team, and we still have two teammates to choose from. Do you have any suggestions?"
"Since all three of us are on the path of magic, one of us definitely needs to go the path of martial arts. Besides, Mechanism Master is also a good choice," Le Yao said. "During our exploration, we'll encounter certain Magic Array, and we won't be able to do without Mechanism Master teammate."
Whether you're trapped by Magic Array or trying to break Magic Array, having Mechanism Master cultivator as a team is very useful.
Of course, Hua Zi gave a different suggestion. "It doesn't necessarily have to be martial artists. I think we can remove the martial artist quota and form another group, such as Fate Master."
"Fate Master?" Le Yao laughed. "A weak Fate Master is basically useless, and a strong Fate Master is hard to find. We'll be waiting for a suitable Fate Master for ages."
Zhao Xing nodded. Those who dared to venture into niche professions did indeed possess remarkable abilities; Fate Master, aside from anything else, just their ability to foresee danger...
This alone is enough to make it a hot commodity for various teams and armies.
But the problem is that they are hard to find. How rare are the first-level Fate Master who can play a role?
Zhao Xing said, "We can find Mech Martial Practitioner. That way, we'll have both warriors and Mechanism Master."
"Mech Martial Practitioner are not uncommon. With the average combat strength of our team, we should be able to find a match soon."
"As for the remaining spot, I think we can wait and see. If there's no suitable one, then all four of us can go."
Since we're already here, there's no rush. When venturing into the Yueluo Cemetery in the First Realm, it's best to stick together for safety. Going solo in the First Realm is extremely rare because it's too dangerous.
If you're acting alone and fall into a dangerous situation, and there's Magic Array blocking your calls for help, you might not even be able to call for backup without teammates.
Zhao Xing and his two companions weren't in a hurry to set off. If they could find suitable teammates, it would be very helpful for their mission to explore the Yueluo Cemetery.
Just as Zhao Xing arrived on the Hutou Star Continent, preparing to explore it.
In the Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom, on the Luo Zhi World Star, a secret space within the planet's capital.
A burly man, resembling a mountain, appeared in the secret space.
He, the He Yin Marquis, is outwardly a Dao Domain Realm expert from the Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom.
In fact, he was a member of the Dongyan Ancient Clan.
After entering the private space, He Yin Marquis removed his disguise, took off all his restraints, and jumped naked into the hot spring.
The He Yin Marquis's body seemed to be forged from the Nether Shadow Stone, his skin a deep purplish-black, covered with strange silver patterns.
A head of wild silver hair flew wildly, like silver flames burning in the wind, each strand exuding a sharp aura.
His eyes had the distinctive triple pupils of the Dongyan Tribe. As he jumped into the spiritual spring to relax, he couldn't help but let out a joyful groan.
It revealed a row of sharp, shark-like teeth.
He Yin Marquis remained in the spiritual spring for a month, as if he were dead.
A month later, he woke up naked and came to a pyramid-shaped altar in the secret space.
The patterns on the pyramid lit up, as if a voice was entering the mind of the He Yin Marquis.
"Yes, yes."
"I know. But the Purple Moon Mansion Lord has been investigating, so apart from initially exploring Qing Yu World Star, I have kept a low profile for the past few hundred years and haven't done anything."
The He Yin Marquis appeared to have been reprimanded, yet his expression remained respectful.
"Yes, it was my oversight. It was my men who allowed Qing Yuzi and the other two to escape back then."
"We originally thought he had died in the Desolate Territory, but unexpectedly, after an era, some natives brought his body back."
"Yes, don't worry," He Yin Marquis said in a low voice. "That item has a very strong forgetting effect. Qing Yuzi and the other two were only at the second realm back then. Even if they got it, they wouldn't know what it was, nor would they remember it."
"The possibility is very low. If the Purple Moon Mansion Lord had obtained it, things probably wouldn't be as peaceful as they are now."
"That item is very likely still on those two native disciples, or it may have ended up in their hometown."
"Yes, please give me some more time, I will definitely find out the truth."
1
He Yin Marquis quickly rose from in front of the pyramid, and its luster rapidly dimmed.
He Yin Marquis waved his hand, causing the pyramid to sink into the ground, and then dressed.
"Purple Bone, Zhao Xing." He Yin Marquis murmured these two names, then recalled the intelligence he had gathered over the past few hundred years.
"The native called Purple Bone doesn't seem very bright."
"But this Zhao Xing is very cautious," He Yin Marquis thought to himself. "He cultivates on Qing Yu World Star and rarely appears in public areas, so he can't be monitored."
"He doesn't use the Infinite Flow's mechanical soldiers at all. When he leaves the Qing Yu World Star, his Star Mirror is not linked and seems to be changed frequently."
The last time the Marquis of He Yin Marquis confirmed that Zhao Xing was using the Star Territory was on the Qing Yu World Star, more than two hundred years ago.
However, another intelligence report stated that Zhao Xing had already traveled to the Illusory God Star System aboard the Qingyu Forty-Nine, clearly indicating that he was using one piece of equipment and discarding it as soon as possible, demonstrating a high level of awareness regarding counter-surveillance.
"He's cautious by nature; it seems we need to send more people to the Illusory God Star System to find him," He Yin Marquis thought to himself. "He's been at the Source Origin Realm over three hundred years; he's a rare genius. Sending someone at the first level might even lead to disaster."
"Then send some people from the Third Realm to capture him."
The Third Realm under the He Yin Marquis is not large in the Grand Mystic Power Realm, but there are quite a few in the Minor Mystic Power Realm.
"The Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom has a total of twenty exploration bases, so let's send twenty Lesser Minor Mystic Power Realm there, along with some Second Realm cultivators to search for traces."
"The second realm only tracks and confirms the trail, then the Third Realm takes over to capture the person."
The He Yin Marquis planned very meticulously, sending people to each exploration base, which greatly increased the probability of finding it.
The Illusory God Star System, Hutou Star Continent, the twentieth Starry Sky Fortress, and the daily residence.
"Damn it, there are so many weirdos." Hua Zi cursed as soon as he entered the door.
Zhao Xing opened his eyes from his cultivation and asked with a smile, "What happened? Did I run into some thugs again?"
"Yeah, right," Hua Zi said helplessly, "What kind of people are they? Just because they have an earring, they dare to call themselves Mech Martial Practitioner."
"If I pick up a guzheng (Chinese zither), can I register as a musician?"
"I asked him to leave, but he scolded me for being delusional and blamed me for making him come all this way for nothing."
"I feel like hitting someone."
After nearly three months of waiting for a match, many Mech Martial Practitioner inquired, but few met their requirements.
Actually, the matchmaking system is quite good; the combat power of those who ask is not suitable for the role of Mech Martial Practitioner.
Either the Mechanism Master learned a martial art, or the martial artist fused a piece of equipment and went to the door; in reality, neither of them possessed the core abilities of both at the same time.
Why would someone impersonate Mech Martial Practitioner?
Of course, there are benefits. Registering as a Mech Martial Practitioner allows you to receive an extra "rare profession subsidy" from the ancient kingdom, which can also be used to offset taxes.
Therefore, many martial artists or Mechanism Master will try every means to obtain a rare professional certificate.
Many factions have different entry requirements, but the Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom officially recognizes them, which has led to the emergence of many rare professions.
Mech Martial Practitioner are arguably the profession with the most severe "rarity overabundance".
"Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom doesn't crack down on these messy, disreputable professions, it's doomed sooner or later!" Hua Zi said indignantly.
"Yeah, it's bound to end sooner or later," Zhao Xing chimed in.
"Let's wait a bit longer. If we really can't find a suitable one, we'll just find two with similar combat strength."
Everyone wants to have their cake and eat it too, so true Mech Martial Practitioner are hard to find.
A truly skilled Mech Martial Practitioner wouldn't join an unfamiliar team, and finding a lone wolf with some skill is entirely a matter of luck.
Just then, Le Yao returned to her residence. As soon as she entered, she excitedly announced, "Zhao Xing, Qionghua, I've found a Mech Martial Practitioner meets the requirements!"
"Oh? Really?" Cen Qionghua was a little puzzled. Only the team leader has the right to match, and Le Yao is not the team leader. Where did she find it?
"Hmph, how can you possibly find a single skilled fighter if you just stand there like this?" Le Yao said. "Even if you're using the name of the Purple God Mansion..."
"We don't know when we'll be able to go, so of course we have to take the initiative."
"Fairy, how did you take the initiative?" Zhao Xing asked curiously.
"I've been browsing the job market for the past three months," Le Yao said, "and then I found one—"
"Wait a minute," Hua Zi interrupted, " On the Hutou Star Continent, there's only a goods trading market, where would you find a talent market?"
"In jail," Le Yao said succinctly.
Hua Zi:
"...
Zhao Xing:
"...
They were stunned for a moment before they realized that the talent exchange market that Le Yao mentioned was a temporary prison set up on the Hutou Star Continent.
After realizing what had happened, neither of them had anything to say.
Le Yao said, "I like reading biographies, and the strong people described in those biographies often have something in common: they have suffered imprisonment."
"...
Zhao Xing and Hua Zi burst into laughter.
Le Yao's reading experience is truly extraordinary; her perspective is quite unique.
While other fairies would casually stroll through the merchant guild, Le Yao actually preferred to visit the prison. It seems that people develop some strange quirks as they live longer.
"Now that you mention it, it does make some sense," Zhao Xing nodded.
The founder of Treasure Mountain Art Fu is currently in prison, so it's not an exaggeration to call prison a job market.
Hua Zi became interested. "So you've found a decent Mech Martial Practitioner? Tell me about it."
Le Yao said, "This person is a lone wolf from a great dynasty."
"I checked, and he used to be at the second realm. But after an adventure, only two of the thirteen mechanical weapons in his body were removed, and even most of the mechanical bones containing the power of origin were extracted."
"After he fell from the Void Realm to the Nascent Realm, he was seriously injured. He incurred debts for treatment, which he was unable to repay, so he was imprisoned."
"He's been imprisoned for 158 years now. Because no one has taken care of him and he has no money, his cell doesn't even have any spiritual energy. I almost thought he was dead, but then he suddenly sat up, which startled me."
"You don't look scared at all!" Zhao Xing thought to himself. Le Yao looked so excited; she didn't seem scared at all.
He finally understood why Le Yao had gone; she was clearly treating the prison visit like a haunted house adventure.
Or do musicians simply prefer to go to strange places to find creative inspiration?
"How much money does he owe?" Hua Zi asked the crucial question. "It probably won't be easy to get him released."
"Treatment in the Void Realm is expensive. He was injured at the time, and it was the medical ward of the Heavenly Gate Army that saved his life. It cost about 3 Origin Sea Coin at that time."
"However, it was later discovered that this person had no relatives or friends, no one came to claim him, and he was not a citizen of the Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom, so a part of his mechanical bones was taken away to pay off the debt."
Even so, it was still not enough to repay the debt. But the people of Heavenly Gate Army Garrison had no choice but to accept their bad luck and save a penniless man.
"Since this is a public account, he is currently awaiting a verdict and can only be kept in jail for now."
"How much debt do you still have?" Zhao Xing asked.
"Around 500 million," Le Yao said. "Actually, that's not a lot. But if we want this person, it won't actually cost 500 million."
With a flick of her fingers, a multitude of numerical formulas appeared in the air. "I've calculated it. The minimum cost to redeem this person is only fifty million."
"It's just that he doesn't have a guarantor, so the procedures are complicated, but we are members of the Purple God Mansion, so this is easy for us."
"I think the people at Heavenly Gate will be very happy, because we've helped them get rid of a money-losing business and given them an explanation for this public debt."
Zhao Xing nodded. That Mech Martial Practitioner was like a "bad debt" to the Heavenly Gate Garrison, with no possibility of repayment. It was the army that saved him, not an individual. The Heavenly Gate Army Garrison couldn't possibly completely save him and force him to work; the army didn't have that kind of business.
Therefore, the Heavenly Gate Army Garrison's final solution was to find someone to take over the debts of that Mech Martial Practitioner and then sell the person to the creditor like a commodity.
The Heavenly Gate Army Garrison would most likely agree to settle the bad debts at a 10% discount.
However, fifty million is not a small sum, and restoring this person's fighting ability will likely require another significant amount of money.
Just as Zhao Xing was pondering, Hua Zi asked, "What's this person's name? Did he say which great dynasty he's from?"
"He calls himself ' Tian Qingzi ' and comes from the ' Pang Ze Dynasty.' I've never heard of this name before. Have you heard of it?" Le Yao asked.
"What was it called again?" Zhao Xing suddenly paused.
"Tian Qingzi comes from the Pang Ze Dynasty. Brother Zhao, have you heard of him?" Le Yao asked.
Zhao Xing was somewhat dazed.
This is absolutely outrageous! He actually heard the name of the restorer of the Pang Ze Ancient Kingdom here!
"If I remember correctly, this Tian Qingzi later reached the Life and Death Dao Domain Realm!"
"As Mechanism Master, Tian Qingzi has researched many powerful mechanical Magic Array and war puppets. Although he is only at the Dao Domain Realm, his combat power is recognized as comparable to that of the Reincarnation Realm. The only thing he lacks between him and the Reincarnation Realm is the ability to resurrect."
"The Pang Ze Dynasty was nameless and faceless at the time, but later, under the leadership of Tian Qingzi, it became an ancient kingdom."
"He actually lived in the Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom? And he suffered such a terrible fate? Going to jail for a mere 500 million?"
Zhao Xing found it somewhat unbelievable.
Could it be true, as Le Yao said, that all the great and powerful figures have been imprisoned?
"To be able to snag a powerful Dao Domain Realm, the future Lord of the Kingdom, Le Yao's luck is truly unparalleled," Zhao Xing thought to himself.
However, he is not sure yet, because he cannot confirm that this is the person he knows based on just two names.
"I haven't heard of it, but since you think it's feasible, Le Yao, let's take a look," Zhao Xing said.
"Okay." The three of them did as they said and immediately flew to the Heavenly Gate Army Garrison on the other side of the Star Continent, where they met Tian Qingzi, who was half dead, in a prison.
When Zhao Xing saw Tian Qingzi lying in the cold prison cell, seemingly about to rot, he found it hard to connect him with the later Lord of the Kingdom.
Having maintained only the bare minimum of vital signs, Tian Qingzi was now like a piece of scrap metal, with even his life fluctuations being extremely weak.
After carefully examining the person for a moment, Zhao Xing realized that the other person was indeed the one he knew!
"Le Yao, we can't let you pay for this all by yourself. I'll contribute 20 million," Zhao Xing said immediately. "You and Hua Zi can chip in the rest."
He only had a little over 20 million left, and it was well worth spending it on Redeeming Tian Qingzi!
Putting aside other matters, Tian Qingzi's combat strength is also guaranteed. After all, he is Mech Martial Practitioner who fell from the second realm. Once he recovers his strength a little, he is more reliable than the others.
"I have no objection." Hua Zi nodded. "I'll also contribute twenty million."
"Okay, I'll go negotiate," Le Yao said.
The three hit it off immediately, spent about a month going through the procedures, paid 50 million, and bought out Tian Qingzi's debt from the Heavenly Gate Army Garrison.
They took Tian Qingzi away from that dark and gloomy prison.
After escaping from prison, it took about a month, and Le Yao invested an additional 20 million to help Tian Qingzi purchase some mechanical soldiers and mechanical bones, enabling Tian Qingzi to recover to the strength of the mid-stage of the first realm in a short period of time.
He also seemed much more energetic and no longer seemed so dazed.
When it reappeared, it was completely different from the dilapidated state of the prison cell.
"Thank you." Tian Qingzi's voice was hoarse and low. He seemed to be a man of few words, and after leaving the cell, he barely spoke to Zhao Xing and Cen Qionghua.
He talked more with Le Yao, but he was very sparing with his words.
"Alright, Tian Qingzi, I've arranged a temporary identity for you. Accept Zhao Xing's invitation, and you're now one of us."
"Le Yao smiled.
"Okay." Tian Qingzi nodded.
Zhao Xing immediately invited Tian Qingzi to join the team. These days, Le Yao has been handling all sorts of trivial matters for Tian Qingzi, including his temporary ancient kingdom identity and combat power rating.
Upon receiving the invitation, he discovered that Tian Qingzi's overall combat strength rating was a staggering 61!
"The minimum combat power for the second realm is 100, and Tian Qingzi, after a slight recovery, has reached 61?" Zhao Xing thought with delight, "It really is him."
He used his detection ability to look at Tian Qingzi and found that the man was only a little over five thousand years old.
Tian Qingzi was only two thousand years older than Cen Qionghua.
"How did you get injured? Even your bones were broken," Cen Qionghua asked curiously.
"I encountered a prince from the ' Ying Yao Dynasty ' in the ' Flying Fish Star Continent ' of the Yueluo Cemetery. He's at the Minor Mystic Power Realm," Tian Qingzi said in just one sentence. Zhao Xing and the others understood immediately; in the exploration areas of the public star sea, killing and robbing were all too common.
It's a miracle that Tian Qingzi survived from a Minor Mystic Power Realm.
"I used to have a few friends who came here from the Pang Ze Dynasty," Tian Qingzi said in a low voice, "But now I'm all alone."
Zhao Xing couldn't help but recall the experience of the Great Xia. It was indeed difficult for a small dynasty in its early stages; in the early years, it had to rely on its own strong individuals to fight outside the region.
But one wrong move and the whole army is wiped out.
"Living in the universe version is truly like walking on thin ice. I hope my journey will go smoothly," Zhao Xing thought to himself. He must become stronger as soon as possible, otherwise, when he migrates in the future, his family, friends, and the future of the Great Zhou will probably not be much better.
After recruiting Tian Qingzi, Zhao Xing and his two companions waited another month, only to find that they hadn't found any suitable teammates, so they decided to stop waiting.
The four departed from the twentieth Starry Sky Fortress on the Hutou Star Continent, boarded a small Realm Boat, and projected themselves out through the [Ring Continent] and special Void River channels.
Countless small Realm Boat like them streaked through the turbulent void like shooting stars, descending towards different areas of the Yueluo Cemetery.
This magnificent scene is an exploration method unique to ancient kingdoms. The exclusive "Void River Passage" allows them to bypass the outermost Starry Sky Formation of the Yueluo Cemetery, saving a great deal of time.
However, how many of these meteors will return is unknown; they may return laden with meteors, or they may become part of the Yueluo Cemetery.
It was the forty-fifth day since Zhao Xing and his group of four were launched from Tiger Gate Star Land.
"Boom!" A medium-sized, pyramid-shaped Realm Boat landed in the Realm Star square of Tiger Gate Star Land.
A handsome young man with purple hair, dressed in dark armor, led over a hundred people at the second level out of the pyramid.
"Lord Mo Er." One of the second-realm cultivators walked up to the handsome young man with purple hair. He was the only Minor Mystic Power Realm in the group.
"According to our investigation, the target is Hutou Star Continent, one of the twenty exploration bases of the Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom."
"Is the target still on the Hutou Star Continent?" Mo Er asked calmly.
"He's gone. He completed his strength assessment and gained captain privileges three months ago. If he were still here, he would be visible through the matchmaking system. His current status shows 'Currently on a mission.'"
"However, we cannot obtain specific exploration points, nor can we bypass the dual privacy protection of the Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom and the Purple God Mansion," the subordinate reported.
Mo Er said coldly, "There aren't many places you can go in the first realm. Without accumulating merit points, there are some areas you can't even go to."
"Pass down the order: everyone must immediately complete the basic exploration tasks, quickly obtain exploration permissions for all areas, and begin the search and capture."
"Within fifty years, I want to hear good news!"
