"This is outrageous!"
A strikingly handsome young World Lord spoke up.
Jiang Tianchen was among the top five super World Lords in the Black Dragon Mountain starfield, and even other World Lords spoke to him respectfully.
Yet, at this moment, a Domain Lord had blocked his path. How could he not be angered?
"This is the regulation of our Universe Mercenary Alliance. If anyone dares to disobey, I will record it and report it to the enforcement team. They will then personally kill and shatter the soul of the offender."
Qiniya responded coldly, showing no fear of the World Lords' threats.
As a disciple of the Third Legion Commander of the Ganwu Universe Country, she feared no one, let alone a few World Lords. Even if there were several times as many, she would still be fearless as long as she had the backing of the alliance's laws.
As long as someone dared to violate the regulations in front of her, she would report it.
Hearing Qiniya's words, the World Lords present were somewhat impressed.
Did she have a powerful background? But to openly defy Jiang Tianchen and the rest of them, the World Lords, required immense courage.
"You've angered the powerful individuals from all the starfields of Black Dragon Mountain."
Jiang Tianchen frowned and said.
Upon hearing Jiang Tianchen's words, Qiniya coldly replied.
"Don't try to scare me with that. If you have the guts, go in. I'll see who dares to violate the alliance regulations."
Hearing Qiniya mention the alliance regulations again, even Jiang Tianchen felt a headache.
Regulations were regulations, but people were in charge. If they turned a blind eye, the matter would pass.
Who would offend so many powerful individuals for no reason?
But clearly, Qiniya was fearless.
Furthermore, she was using the alliance regulations as her shield. Who would dare to offend the 'Universe Mercenary Alliance'?
Seeing that Qiniya was being completely intractable, Jiang Tianchen decided to convene a council of all the World Lord experts.
But at that moment, Qiniya's expression suddenly changed.
Her expression became somewhat strange.
Seeing Qiniya's change in expression, the gazes of all the World Lords present turned to her.
"By order of 'Marquis Flame Abyss', the Thunder World is sealed. No one is allowed to enter. Those who disobey will die!"
An electronic voice emanated from Qiniya's smart optical computer, and at the same time, a fiery abyss pattern was projected.
Although it was merely an electronic synthesized voice from a smart optical computer, it sent a chill through all the World Lords present.
It wasn't the electronic voice that was strange, but its content.
Marquis Flame Abyss!
This was an Immortal expert with considerable fame, one who had been enfeoffed in the Ganwu Universe Country.
The World Lords present had all heard of Marquis Flame Abyss's reputation, but they never expected that the treasure in this mere Thunder World could attract such an expert.
Upon seeing the pattern of the fiery abyss, Jiang Tianchen immediately turned and left without any hesitation.
The other World Lords followed suit, disappearing from Qiniya's sight in the blink of an eye.
I didn't expect that little fellow to be a student of 'Marquis Flame Abyss'.
A golden-red figure flashed through Qiniya's mind, along with the formidable power of his Crimson Slash.
That's right, with his talent, it's normal to have an Immortal teacher.
Recalling the information she had obtained, Qiniya suddenly understood.
Thunder World, entrance to the World within a World.
"Master, they're ready."
Li Yue took the skewers off the grill and placed them on a plate, then brought them to Jiang Ming.
"Mmm, not bad. The beasts in this Thunder World taste different. They contain more Origin Power and taste better."
Jiang Ming picked up a skewer, took a bite, and praised.
As a World Lord's world, the Thunder World had unique laws. Although these fierce beasts were all introduced from the outside.
But having lived in the Thunder World for a long time, they naturally acquired a unique flavor not found elsewhere.
Just then, Jiang Ming sensed someone looking for him in the virtual universe.
He immediately got up and walked into a nearby safe house.
The exterior of this safe house was made of C9-grade materials, capable of withstanding attacks from Universe level nine, while the core interior room was made of D6-grade materials, capable of resisting attacks from Domain Lord level six.
The safe house was fully equipped and served as Jiang Ming's wilderness dwelling.
Linking his consciousness to the virtual universe, Jiang Ming appeared outside Marquis Flame Abyss's manor.
"Teacher."
Walking into the manor, Jiang Ming bowed to Marquis Flame Abyss.
"Mm, I've ordered the Thunder World sealed, so no one will enter."
Marquis Flame Abyss said to Jiang Ming. After learning that a World within a World had appeared in the Thunder World, she had paid attention to it. Knowing that a World Lord intended to seize the World within a World, she had asked Qiniya to help convey her orders.
"Thank you, teacher."
Jiang Ming bowed to Marquis Flame Abyss in thanks.
"It's what I should do. However, although I've sealed the entrance to the Thunder World, there are still tens of thousands of Stellar level cultivators within it.
Knowing they have no external aid, they will likely unite and attack you."
Marquis Flame Abyss warned.
She had already helped Jiang Ming resolve the external pressure. As for those tens of thousands of Stellar level cultivators, it would only take a word for Marquis Flame Abyss to deal with them.
But she wouldn't do that. Excessive protection would only spoil someone.
Appropriate pressure was the only way to make someone grow.
"Mm, I'll be careful."
Jiang Ming nodded, his tone becoming much more serious.
Tens of thousands of Stellar level cultivators joining forces could force even Universe level cultivators to flee.
The reason Jiang Ming was able to repel those tens of thousands of Stellar level cultivators before was, firstly, that after they reported to their factions, they believed reinforcements would arrive, rather than these individuals facing Jiang Ming alone.
The second reason was that although there were tens of thousands of Stellar level cultivators, they were actually individuals who had not united.
Now that there were no reinforcements from the outside, they were the only force. Someone would definitely unite them by promising enough benefits and profits.
But even so, Jiang Ming was still full of confidence.
If they were well-trained and practiced combined attacks, or if they were like Zerg warriors who feared no death, those tens of thousands of Stellar level cultivators could threaten Universe level cultivators of the fourth or fifth order.
But currently, Jiang Ming's opponents were like a pile of loose sand. Even if someone could barely gather them, they wouldn't be able to withstand any storm.
If a few more people died, the so-called army would collapse on its own.
At this moment, on the other side of the mountain range, in a hidden safe house, dozens of Stellar level cultivators were holding a meeting.
The leader was the Ninth Prince of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire.
"Everyone, you must have heard the news.
The outside has been sealed, and we have no reinforcements."
The crowd fell silent.
"But are you willing to accept this? That is the treasure of a World Lord. The treasures within are endless. Any single item taken out would be priceless and could easily help you break through to Universe level, or even Domain Lord level."
Brolyn's words piqued the interest of some, but the thought of the opponent they had to face made them immediately dejected.
"I know the God is very strong, extremely strong. If we go to war with him, the losses will be absolutely huge, and no one wants to bear such losses.
But what if we only want some entry slots?"
As Brolyn spoke, nine Stellar level cultivators appeared behind him, each holding a three-meter-long, approximately thirty-centimeter-diameter technological weapon.
"Let me introduce this: the C2-class laser gun! Its power can kill a second-order Universe level cultivator in one hit!"
