Setting Off for Qiu Long Planet!

During this time, Yang Yu learned about the universe through the Optical Brain and also learned that Life Planet are mainly divided into Human Habitable Planet, Tourist Planet, Livestock Planet, Agricultural Planet, Industrial Planet, and so on.

"Previously, Earth's pastoral system contained many precious Monsters, which were important assets of the Yinlan Empire. Therefore, a Star Fleet was specially stationed here. This is also the reason why there are so many ruins on Earth, and it is also the origin of our Black Dragon Spaceship."

Babata explained, "As for Mars, it was mined as an Industrial Planet. Back then, millions of workers mined on Mars and built a mining base. However, the Interstellar Fleet stationed there was later wiped out by its master in one fell swoop, and the livestock and industrial systems on Earth and Mars gradually declined. Those workers on Mars had no source of supplies and naturally all starved to death here."

"As for these pyramids, they are Energy Tower, a rudimentary method of energy production that imitates the Machine Race. They are very cost-effective. You should know that among the Peak Race in the universe, the Machine Race has the strongest technology and their various energy weapons are also very advanced. You will feel this more deeply once you integrate into the universe."

"Life formed from machines? That's truly amazing." Yang Yu and Babata chatted as they walked inside.

"Yes, strictly speaking, the Machine Race is actually a type of Sentient AI. They don't have souls! But they can still comprehend the Origin Law and possess their own emotions and desires. However, their system has a very strict hierarchy, which is very different from the human system."

"The universe is so vast and truly amazing," Yang Yu exclaimed.

"Babata, thoroughly investigate the mineral deposits here. The sooner we finish, the sooner we can set off for Qiu Long Planet, open a Virtual Universe account there, and try to determine the ownership of Earth."

"Alright, I know you can't wait." Babata began a thorough investigation as soon as he finished speaking.

The detectors on his body are divided into large-area detectors and small-area high-precision detectors, each with a different function. To conduct a detailed investigation, the latter needs to be activated.

Just a moment.

Babata's face lit up with joy. "Yang Yu, there are indeed extremely rich Dark Iron Ore Deposit on Mars!"

"Is it the Dark Iron Metal defined as A8 Grade in the universe?" Through the Optical Brain, Yang Yu also learned about Darksteel.

"Haha, yes, that's it!" Babata was clearly quite satisfied with Yang Yu's eagerness to learn; this kind of knowledge could be acquired through the Optical Brain with a little effort.

"We continued forward. The nine pyramids were somewhat of a distraction. As we ventured deeper to the left, I discovered that there was indeed a massive Steel City below."

Following the direction pointed out by Babata, Yang Yu continued forward, dodging some defense systems that were still functioning normally, until Yang Yu and Babata arrived at a place where large metal pipes were gathered.

"Yang Yu, use your Thunder Blade to cut all these pipes!"

"No problem." Yang Yu immediately unleashed the Thunder Blade Formation, easily severing all the pipes that were made of ordinary Dark Iron Metal.

"The pipes to the other eight Energy Tower also need to be cut off, otherwise it will affect our collection of this Darksteel."

"Babata, you just need to give me directions."

Yang Yu then traveled underground and, guided by Babata, cut off all the pipes.

"Now there's no problem, we can just move whatever we see!"

After confirming there were no safety concerns, Babata excitedly waved his little hand, his eyes sparkling with a bright light; clearly, he was a little miser.

"Haha, great!"

So Yang Yu, clad in Blood Red Battle Armor and surrounded by the Thunder Blade, continued searching the underground Steel City.

Yang Yu soon arrived at a warehouse.

This warehouse was clearly used to store the mined Darksteel, and because there was so much Darksteel mined, it was piled up outside the warehouse.

"Hehe, Yang Yu, we've really struck it rich this time," Babata laughed happily. "Although the unit price of Darksteel isn't high, the quantity is huge. Selling it all will make a considerable fortune."

"Yang Yu, use your Mental Force to search more carefully and see if you can find Dark Iron Essence, or even Dark Iron Mother. Those two things are more valuable."

As he spoke, Babata directly put the Darksteel in front of him into his Storage Space. Yang Yu's Space Ring couldn't hold the huge warehouse that was entirely made of Darksteel.

"Hmm, we harvested about 118 million tons this time, not bad, let's continue!"

Babata's eyes lit up, and Yang Yu was also excited. "Whether we can make a fortune in one go depends on how much we can rake in."

As the two continued to collect the Darksteel with great speed and efficiency, the entire massive warehouse was finally revealed.

Looking at the vast rectangular warehouse and the huge, thick Darksteel gate in front of him, Yang Yu tried to control the Thunder Blade and connect it with his understanding of the Origin Law to form the most powerful blade array at present. After several minutes of hard work, he finally managed to cut out an opening large enough for one person to pass through.

"Tsk tsk, what a freak." Babata, standing to the side, twitched his face. He had originally planned to take out the fragment of the 'Chi Hun Copper Mother' for Yang Yu to use.

After all, even though the Thunder Blade is Tier 3 Spiritual Weapon, how could it possibly match the edge fragments that fell from the Yunmo Planet Spaceship in terms of sharpness?

But now that Yang Yu has forcibly opened it, so be it. After all, the impact of the Crimson Chaos Copper Mother Fragment is significant, and its value is extremely high. Deep down, Babata still wants to leave it for his future true disciple.

Unaware of Babata's ulterior motives, Yang Yu went straight into the warehouse.

"Wow! There are indeed quite a few good things. Babata, I'll still have to trouble you. My Space Ring isn't big enough." Just now, Yang Yu's Mental Force detected that small pile of Deep Red Metal in the distance.

"B8 Grade Metal Dark Iron Essence!"

"Hehe, as expected, there is Dark Iron Essence." Babata also took out a repaired Liquid Silver Guard. As the Liquid Silver Guard scanned, it also obtained detailed data on this pile of Dark Iron Essence.

"The volume is approximately 35 cubic meters, weighing around 1200 tons."

"Great success! Let's continue!"

The next step was large-scale looting.

To their surprise, they also found a considerable amount of Dark Iron Essence in the miners' dwellings, totaling over a thousand tons!

It seems the saying "people die for wealth, birds die for food" applies everywhere and in every world; these people didn't forget to scavenge for Dark Iron Essence) even before they died.

Half an hour later.

"The entire gate is made of Dark Iron Essence."

"Boom!"

Yang Yu kicked open a deep red door covered in a thick layer of dust.

After kicking open the door, Yang Yu immediately stored the several-ton door into his Space Ring.

Yang Yu and Babata then entered the basement, which had remained untouched for hundreds of thousands of years.

"Hiss!"

After scanning the area with his Mental Force upon entering, Yang Yu was utterly shocked.

This small basement was filled with a large quantity of Deep Red Dark Iron Essence, and in the center was a piece of blood-red metal.

"Dark Iron Mother!"

"Haha, what a great haul! It seems these people spent a long time collecting the materials, but they all died here before they could transport them away. We've really gotten a good deal."

Babata controlled the Liquid Silver Guard to continue scanning these precious metals.

"There are approximately 12,300 tons of Dark Iron Essence, and 360 kilograms of Dark Iron Mother that meets the C8 Grade metal standard!"

"There are definitely many more in the warehouse."

"Yang Yu, quickly find the main monitoring system for this Underground Steel City. I'll connect to the monitoring system and check the city's historical data to see if there are any other places where Dark Iron Essence is stored. I estimate that due to the sudden changes at the time, the situation here changed drastically, and there may be more than one place where Xuan Darksteel is stored."

"Okay!" Yang Yu had the same guess.

Human beings are such a strange species; when there is a strict order and the protection of force, they become a complete civilization.

However, when order collapses and everyone becomes a queen, severe infighting will occur, and several places will inevitably be created where valuable items are stored.

Really.

Five minutes later.

When Babata connected to and successfully hacked into the intelligent monitoring system of the entire Underground Steel City, obtaining all the historical data there confirmed this conjecture.

After Hu Yanbo destroyed this Interstellar Fleet with a single blow, the more than three million people remaining here lost the possibility of going to the outside world. The Yinlan Empire outside did not dare to offend Hu Yanbo, a Marquis Level Immortal, and did not even dare to send anyone to take a look. Naturally, many forces eventually formed here, and relying on the Life Support Equipment they had brought with them, they survived for more than three thousand years before all of them perished.

After a moment of reflection, the two resumed their search based on the map they had obtained.

In the end, Yang Yu searched a total of 12 strongholds of various forces. Eight of them were empty, but the other four yielded even more loot than the warehouse!

From then on.

Yang Yu and Babata looted almost all the Dark Iron Essence and Dark Iron Mother in the entire Underground Steel City.

Final review.

Of these, 33,600 tons of Dark Iron Essence and 23,400 tons of Dark Iron Mother were harvested.

And of course, there's the Steel City with the largest weight!

Under the combined efforts of Yang Yu, three Maintenance Robot, and three Liquid Silver Guards, the structure was dismantled.

This Steel City, which is about 10 kilometers long and wide, was also completely taken over by Yang Yu!

More than eight hours later.

Looking at the empty underground world before him, even Yang Yu couldn't help but marvel at how thoroughly they had looted it.

However, the rewards were also enormous!

A total of 9.28 billion tons of Dark Iron Raw Material were collected from the Steel City!

Upon receiving the specific data, Yang Yu smiled happily.

The value of these massive quantities of Dark Iron Raw Material is greater than that of Dark Iron Essence and Dark Iron Mother!

The quantity is simply too large.

Once Yang Yu sells these Darksteel, he will have his first source of Seed Capital.

There are so many things you need money for in space, so having more now will make things easier in the future.

We arrived at a high altitude and looked down at the earth below.

At this moment, Yang Yu felt a surge of pride, knowing he was about to truly enter the universe.

After taking one last look at the Desolate Mars surface, Yang Yu returned to the Black Dragon Spaceship to meditate.

Several days later, after Babata had repaired all the Auxiliary Power System of the Black Dragon Spaceship, he prepared to set off again.

"Yang Yu, our destination this time is Qiu Long Planet, which is about 320,000 light-years away! It's a powerful planet that's far more prosperous than the Yinlan Empire Imperial Star. There are countless strong individuals and abundant resources there! It's generally a place favored by the upper class and people of status in the universe. Because of the existence of Civilization Order, such places are actually much safer."

"Qiu Long Planet"

Yang Yu muttered to himself.

As expected, we're going to Qiu Long Planet. And it makes sense; judging from the Star Chart, Qiu Long Planet is the closest and most prosperous planet to Earth.

Other suitable distances are much farther than this.

"Yes, this is the place. If we want to resell this batch of Dark Iron Metal, Qiu Long Planet is the most suitable location. Going to other places would take too long."

In the vast starry sky.

At this moment, the C5-class Black Dragon Spaceship was accelerating continuously.

Several tens of seconds later.

"Beep~"

"We are about to accelerate to the Light Speed and enter the Dark Universe. Please prepare yourself!"

The Black Dragon Spaceship's onboard Intelligent System issued a warning.

"Successful Universe Shuttle; we have entered the Dark Universe."

Yang Yu also had some understanding of the Dark Universe.

This is also an indispensable element of long-distance travel in the universe.

After all, the distance traveled in the Dark Universe is on a ratio of 1:10,081,000 to that in the Original Universe!

That is, if you travel 10,000 kilometers in the Dark Universe, you would appear 100.81 billion miles away in the Original Universe!

Another point is that the Light Speed cannot be broken in the Original Universe. Once the Light Speed is reached, the Universe Shuttle into the Dark Universe, where the speed of Light Speed can be broken.

The universe is so vast, which is why it is possible to travel through it.

"We expect to arrive at Qiu Long Planet in ten days. During these ten days, Yang Yu, you can relax or cultivate."

"I'd better continue cultivating. Cultivation is relaxing," Yang Yu said with a smile. He then went to the Training Room specially set up in the spaceship. The materials used here were enough for a Universe Level expert to practice ordinary moves.

"I really envy you geniuses. Why do I feel like cultivation is so painful?" Babata muttered, watching Yang Yu leave with a smile. "Sigh, the journey is long. I'll just continue playing games, hehe."

Yang Yu wasn't lying; he was genuinely enjoying his cultivation right now!

When Yang Yu's mind was completely immersed in the Lightning Origin Law Ocean, his heart became incredibly peaceful, and his consciousness felt like it had entered the warmest harbor. Each cultivation session not only brought him many insights but also brought him great joy.

However, Yang Yu wouldn't spend all his time Comprehend Laws, since comprehending laws also requires consuming Soul Power, and then he also needs to apply the laws he has comprehended to actual combat.

Therefore, Yang Yu would spend half a day comprehending the Origin Law, and when he was about to exhaust his Soul Power, he would rest for a while, and at the same time absorb and refine the Muya Crystal. After his energy was fully restored, he would spend time integrating the laws he had comprehended into his domain.

In this way, one can not only fully grasp the laws one has come to understand, but also continuously improve one's understanding of the field, and incidentally accumulate energy to level up.

They made perfect use of their time.

As for the rest of the time Yang Yu would take out the Thunder Blade, integrate his understanding of the laws into the Thunder Blade Technique, and then practice the Thunder Blade Formation.

With his continued cultivation, Yang Yu is now not far from mastering the Thunder Blade First Form Third Layer.

Finally, on the ninth day...

Yang Yu finally succeeded in mastering the Thunder Blade Formation of the third level of the first form.

Yang Yu was quite satisfied with this result.

After all, his current basic Mental Force is only at the Planetary Level Two. The Thunder Blade has such abnormal requirements that many Star Level may not be able to master the third level of the first form.

Another piece of good news is that Yang Yu has been absorbing the Muya Crystal to his heart's content during this time, and his level is almost at the Planetary Level 3.

This progress seems acceptable, but it's far too slow compared to Yang Yu's progress in cultivation level.

Babata also said that with Yang Yu's current Domain Realm, many Domain Lords are only at this level, so there is no need to worry about his foundation being weak or his inability to control his energy.

After finishing their training, they arrived at the Spaceship Hall.

"Yang Yu, you're here! I was just about to call you. In half an hour, we'll be Universe Shuttle and arriving at Qiu Long Planet."

Babata smiled and said as he saw Yang Yu approaching.
