Under the starry sky, Lian Luo flew out of the spaceship and slew Green Wolf with a single stroke, taking only a moment.
The two surviving World Masters hurriedly flew before Lian Luo and respectfully said, "Thank you for saving our lives, sir!"
Even as they spoke, they secretly guessed at Lian Luo's identity. He had killed that demon race Immortal so easily—this lord was likely no ordinary Immortal!
Lian Luo nodded and suggested to the World Masters and Domain Lords, "You've suffered heavy losses. You should return to the base and treat your injuries before coming back to fight."
Facing a demon race Immortal, this human army had held on for so long. At least half its members had been lost, its formation scattered. It no longer had the ability to continue fighting.
At those words, pained expressions appeared on the two World Masters' faces. Their comrades, whom they had fought alongside for so long, had been devoured by that Green Wolf right before their eyes. Their grief was imaginable.
However, anyone who dared come to the Outer Domain Battlefield had long since cast life and death aside. They quickly suppressed their grief and began directing the Domain Lords under their command to clean up the battlefield.
They themselves then respectfully asked about Lian Luo's identity.
Lian Luo put away Green Wolf's storage device and said casually, "You may call me the Blood-Robed Marquis."
The two World Masters' hearts immediately tightened upon hearing this. Having fought on the Outer Domain Battlefield for so many years, they were naturally not like those ignorant newcomers within the Universe Nations. Immortal Gods were divided into Army Masters, Marquis Immortals, and King-level Immortals—this was no secret to them.
"So this lord truly is a powerful Marquis Immortal God! No wonder he killed that Immortal Green Wolf with a single sword strike!"
The black streamlined spacecraft barreled through shattered celestial debris. Inside its main cabin, Lian Luo was reflecting on the battle from earlier.
He turned his awareness toward the Blind Box in his mind. At the instant he killed Green Wolf, a progress bar had suddenly appeared on the white Blind Box.
The progress bar currently read 1/100.
Killing an ordinary Immortal increased the progress bar by 1. Killing a Marquis Immortal God increased it by 10. If he could kill a King-level Immortal, the progress bar would fill instantly.
"At last, the first step has begun!" A faint smile appeared on Lian Luo's face. "I really can't wait to see what exactly is inside this Blind Box!"
After examining the changes in the white Blind Box, Lian Luo looked toward the Merit System. He had activated the Virtual Universe Network when he killed Green Wolf, and once the battle ended, the corresponding kill merit had been deposited into his account.
"One hundred million military merits! It seems that Green Wolf was merely an ordinary Immortal Army Master!" Lian Luo murmured casually.
To him, military merits could be exchanged for Chaos Units or internal points from the Virtual Universe Company at a rate of one hundred thousand to one. In other words, one hundred million military merits could be exchanged for 1,000 Chaos Units or the equivalent number of points.
That was an enormous sum for World Masters and even ordinary Immortal Army Masters. But to him, it truly meant nothing.
He then instructed the artificial intelligence, "Check Green Wolf's World Ring!"
"Yes, Master!"
Under the artificial intelligence's control, dozens of liquid robots entered the World Ring and began taking inventory of Green Wolf's belongings.
Before long, the artificial intelligence finished its inventory and reported the value of the spoils: nearly twenty thousand Chaos Units.
Lian Luo nodded slightly. This figure was within his expectations.
An ordinary Immortal Army Master's total wealth was generally only worth several tens of thousands to over a hundred thousand Chaos Units, but that figure included territories and deposits.
The wealth they carried with them would certainly be lower than that.
"Beep! Master, an 'Immortal God of the Black Scab Race' has been detected eight hundred million kilometers away!"
Just then, the artificial intelligence's alert sounded beside Lian Luo's ear. He immediately ordered, "Pursue it!"
Detecting, searching, killing...
Before he knew it, Lian Luo had already spent nearly three hundred years on the Outer Domain Battlefield. The number of foreign race Immortal Gods who had died by his hand had exceeded ninety.
Within a fragment of a celestial body, Lian Luo stood in a pool of blood. Before him lay a massive foreign race corpse over one hundred meters tall, with eight pairs of arms. Even in death, the corpse continuously emanated terrifying pressure, revealing how powerful it had been in life.
Lian Luo put away the Blood Shadow Sword and looked at the white Blind Box in his mind, smiling.
After three hundred years of slaughter, he had become one of the most untouchable beings in the Nine Nether Starfield.
Yet this formidable reputation had been built upon the piled corpses of nearly a hundred foreign race Immortal Gods.
Blind Box Opening Progress: 99/100.
"Not bad. As long as I kill one more Immortal God, I'll be able to open this Blind Box!" Lian Luo glanced at the foreign race corpse before him, then shot directly into the sky and departed from this celestial fragment.
Soon, the black streamlined spacecraft accelerated into a streak of light and vanished into the depths of the starry sky.
Over the years, Lian Luo had killed a total of ninety-nine foreign race Immortals, including thirty-six high-level Army Masters and sixty-three ordinary Army Masters.
The total wealth of high-level Immortal Army Masters exceeded several hundred thousand Chaos Units, and killing them also earned one billion military merits!
That was ten times more than an ordinary Immortal Army Master!
Having killed so many Immortals, the total value of the spoils Lian Luo had obtained had already reached nearly ten million Chaos Units. He had exchanged all the merits from those kills for internal points from the Virtual Universe Company, bringing his total to 543,000 points.
"Let's continue!"
The spacecraft's detector was operating at maximum power. Nothing within a billion kilometers could escape his detection.
As Lian Luo's spacecraft advanced, on a celestial fragment less than one hundred million kilometers away, a creature whose entire body seemed forged from metal sat cross-legged. At first glance, he looked like a metal man. Before him, his detector displayed a black streamlined spacecraft, along with Lian Luo's figure inside it.
This metal man was a member of the Mechanical Race, one of the Four Great Peak Races.
"Hm?" The Mechanical Race person was surprised. "That figure should be the human known as the Blood-Robed Marquis, who has been slaughtering freely through the Nine Nether Starfield recently!"
The Mechanical Race excelled most in technology. Although this Mechanical Race person was merely a high-level Army Master, his detection equipment was more advanced than that of most King Levels. Naturally, it was also more advanced than Lian Luo's detector. Thus, he had discovered Lian Luo, while Lian Luo had failed to discover him!
As for why he recognized Lian Luo, there was nothing strange about that. Lian Luo was one of the overlords of the Nine Nether Starfield!
"If I kill him, I should be able to complete Master's task!" Hesitation filled the Mechanical Race person's eyes. "But he's a Marquis Immortal with an undying body. Can I kill him?"
"A Marquis who only dares fight in the Nine Nether Starfield should rank at the bottom among Marquis Immortals! I have the Netherfire Prison that Master forged for me. Perhaps I can kill him!"
The Mechanical Race person's gaze gradually became firm. "Killing a Marquis Immortal will certainly make Master value me even more. I'll risk it!"
