"Ao Fu?" The Immortal God named Baron smiled and nodded.
Suddenly, he looked at Lian Luo in surprise. "Ao Fu, did you just break through to King Level? Your aura seems somewhat weaker than that of an ordinary King-level expert!"
Lian Luo smiled and nodded. "Your guess is correct, Baron. I did indeed just break through. I haven't even settled on a title yet!"
In terms of strength, the Nine Li clone was King Level, even somewhat stronger than an ordinary Early King-level expert. His main body was a little weaker, having only barely crossed the threshold into King Level. Only after using the Star Prison Demonic Body did he possess Early King-level combat strength.
That was why his aura was unstable.
"Ha ha... then it seems you broke through on the Outer Domain Battlefield! Congratulations, Ao Fu. Oh, right, I'm Baron, and my title is King Moan!" Baron said with a laugh as he reclined on a beach chair on the distant island.
Lian Luo also smiled gently. "King Moan, that's a very good title. I'll remember it! We should go have a drink at the restaurant sometime!"
"Sure, no problem!" Baron smiled as he accepted Lian Luo's invitation.
Every human King-level expert was a highly esteemed figure within their respective Universe Nation, and Baron was no exception. Naturally, he could not be bothered with ordinary people, but Lian Luo was also a King-level expert. Of course, Baron was willing to befriend him. Wasn't that how connections were made?
After chatting with Baron for a while longer, Lian Luo entered the palace at the center of the island. As he cultivated the Soul Suppressing Seal secret technique, he waited for the Virtual Universe Company staff to deliver the detector and battle sword he had purchased, while also taking away the spoils he had sold.
Lian Luo did not have to wait long. Less than half a month later, Virtual Universe Company personnel arrived at the island where he was temporarily staying.
"Lord Blood-Robed Marquis! Here are the items you ordered. Please inspect them!" The staff member in black armor respectfully placed a hand-carried safe in front of Lian Luo.
Lian Luo inspected the safe and, after finding everything intact, nodded with a smile. "Not bad. There are no problems."
At the same time, a World Ring flew from his hand and landed before the staff member. "The spoils I wish to sell are inside. Please check them as well!"
"Yes, Lord Blood-Robed Marquis!" The black-armored staff member remained respectful as dozens of inspection robots flew out of his World Ring and entered Lian Luo's World Ring to begin counting the items, while he himself stood there smiling.
The entire transaction was handled by the Virtual Universe. He was merely responsible for the delivery.
"Oh, right. I applied through the Virtual Universe to use the company's courier service. You brought the safes, didn't you?" While the other party was checking the spoils, Lian Luo took out two more World Rings and smiled.
The two World Rings respectively contained the F-class spaceships intended for Lian Qingzhu and Lian Chi Tong.
Hearing this, the black-armored staff member immediately connected to the Virtual Universe to check. A moment later, he hurriedly took out two combination lockboxes from his World Ring and respectfully said, "My lord, I have located your order. Please place the items to be shipped into these two lockboxes, then set the corresponding passwords! The company's transport personnel will deliver the lockboxes to their destinations!"
"Alright." Lian Luo nodded slightly.
Under the control of his Immortal Divine Power, the two lockboxes floated before him. He placed the two World Rings into them separately, then sent the passwords he had set to his two descendants by email.
At this time, the Virtual Universe had also finished checking Lian Luo's spoils.
The black-armored staff member respectfully said, "Lord Blood-Robed Marquis, all information regarding the spoils has been verified. If you have no other matters, I shall take my leave now!"
Lian Luo nodded with a gentle smile. "Mm, go ahead!"
After finishing the handover with the Virtual Universe Company staff, Lian Luo did not immediately set off for the battlefield to fight.
During the period he had spent waiting for the transaction, aside from cultivating, he had also made several King-level friends. Before leaving the War Base, he naturally had to inform the friends he had met.
Inside the War Base's bar.
Lian Luo and Baron each held a glass of wine, drinking and chatting.
"Ao Fu, how have your gains been these past years?" Baron asked.
Lian Luo shook his head. "So-so, I suppose!"
Killing only twenty-one Marquis Immortals in five thousand years was quite inefficient. Of course, that was mainly because of the special environment of the Purple Splendor Star River, where detectors could not scan very far, making it difficult for him to locate alien Marquis Immortals.
Baron nodded as well. "Marquis Immortals with undying bodies are indeed difficult to kill. Those Peak Marquis experts may be weaker than me, but there's simply nothing I can do to them! By the way, which region are you fighting in?"
"The Purple Splendor Star River," Lian Luo said.
"The Purple Splendor Star River?" Baron shook his head speechlessly. "You already possess King-level combat strength, yet you're still fighting in the Purple Splendor Star River? Why not come fight in Burning Separation Space-time? That's where I am!"
"Burning Separation Space-time?" Lian Luo smiled and shook his head. "I just broke through. Among King-level experts, I'm probably at the bottom. For now, I have no intention of venturing into Burning Separation Space-time."
Naturally, Lian Luo had learned about Burning Separation Space-time before. If the Purple Splendor Star River was the highest-level combat region within the coverage of War Base No. 076, then Burning Separation Space-time was the publicly recognized highest-level combat region of the Ninth Battlefield, and also the most dangerous place!
Most of those who dared enter Burning Separation Space-time to fight were King-level Immortals, along with a small number of formidable Peak Marquis experts!
The Ninth Battlefield's nickname of "Boundless Purgatory" largely came from Burning Separation Space-time. Early King-level, High King-level, and even peak King-level experts could fall there if they were not careful!
It was so dangerous that Lian Luo definitely would not go there now!
"Though it's dangerous, it's also full of opportunities." Baron's eyes held envy. "Last time, King Zhenyan obtained a Hollow Flame in Burning Separation Space-time and earned nearly a hundred billion Chaos Units in one go!"
"King Zhenyan? Hollow Flame?" Hearing this, Lian Luo could not help becoming somewhat interested. When he had fallen, King Zhenyan had not yet risen to prominence. The other man must have risen during the period of Lian Luo's death.
Baron nodded. "Yes! But King Zhenyan is peak King-level, so it's no surprise that he was able to seize a Hollow Flame!"
"Baron, Ao Fu!"
As the voice rang out, several figures approached. Terrifying, heart-palpitating pressure radiated from them. These people were friends Lian Luo had met during this period. Some were aliens, some were humans, and every one of them possessed King-level strength.
As their group sat there, the other ordinary Immortal Gods and Marquis Immortals consciously avoided this area, leaving them a large open space.
"Ao Fu, you're heading out to fight already?" a King-level expert whose face was covered in fish-scale-like azure armor asked in surprise.
This speaker was also a King expert from a mysterious human race, the Dawn Mermen, and his title was King Azure Nightmare!
Lian Luo smiled and nodded. "Yes! My strength is inferior to yours, King Azure Nightmare, so naturally I must spend more time cultivating."
"Ha ha... everyone, raise your glasses! Let's wish Ao Fu plentiful spoils and a safe return!"
It had to be said that Lian Luo's Main Body's gentle personality did make many King-level experts willing to befriend him.
Of course, the fact that he was human was also inseparable from why these King-level experts befriended him. Within the Hong Alliance, the Human race was the dominant force, so human King-level experts naturally held much higher status than those aliens!
