Disguise
"Drop!"
Following the traction signal sent from inside Source Dragon Planet, Yang Wu immediately boarded a spaceship and flew into Source Dragon Planet along a specific route.
Soon, the blood-red triangular spaceship entered Source Dragon Planet and landed on the spaceship parking platform.
"Wow! It's an F-class spaceship made entirely of Chi Hun Copper Mother material!"
Upon seeing the blood-red triangular spaceship, a man clad in silver standard combat armor exclaimed in surprise, "An F-class spaceship like this must be worth at least several million Hunyuan Unit!"
F-class spaceship is practically standard equipment for a Marquis-level Immortal.
Most Marquis-level Immortal would not use a logistics base like Source Dragon Planet when traveling to the Outer-Region Battlefield.
Therefore, even though he works at this logistics base, he rarely sees F-class spaceship.
Whoosh!
The hatch opened.
A figure emerged from the spaceship's hatch. It was a man clad in dark gold armor, his face hidden beneath a dark Golden Mask, radiating an extremely formidable aura.
This person was Yang Wu. After casually putting the spaceship into his World Ring, he turned to look at the staff member beside him.
"Revered Immortal God, I am a staff member here. How can I help you?"
The man in standard battle armor quickly greeted him respectfully, while inwardly he was secretly alarmed. "This Immortal God exudes such powerful aura and travels in an incredibly expensive F-class spaceship. Could he be Marquis-level Immortal deity?"
Yang Wu looked at the other party. This staff member, dressed in standard battle armor, had two sharp horns on his head and was a domain Domain Lord Level powerhouse from the Minotaur race.
"I applied to go to the Outer-Region Battlefield, but I don't know which way to go?" Yang Wu asked softly.
"Reporting to Your Excellency, the Cosmic Army arrived as a group, while the lone travelers all proceeded together along this passage to the rendezvous point!"
The man in silver standard battle armor pointed to a very wide passageway made of transparent glass in the distance. "Sir, you can follow this passageway to the assembly point. This passageway is about three thousand kilometers long, and the assembly point is at the end of the passageway. There will be people there to take care of your needs."
"Thanks," Yang Wu nodded in thanks.
Yang Wu then proceeded along the passage. With his current level of cultivation, even without deliberately increasing his speed, he reached the end of the passage in just a short while, where he found a rather beautiful square.
Yang Wu glanced around and saw that the plaza was huge, with a diameter of over a hundred kilometers. Even though nearly ten thousand space warriors had gathered here, it still looked sparse.
"Sigh, for lone wolves like us, it takes a hundred World Lord experts to teleport to the Outer-Region Battlefield at once. It's really... I spent a full eleven years traveling by spaceship to get to this Source Dragon Planet, and I didn't expect that I would have to keep waiting after arriving here!"
Not far from the entrance of the passage, a tall figure dressed in dark Azure Battle Armor sat on a bench, complaining.
He was four meters tall, with strong legs and four thick, powerful arms. He had only one eye on his face, and it was a vertical eye.
This person is none other than the 'Anjialuo Race,' a highly renowned race among the Human Race of the universe.
The Anjialuo Race can reach the Universe Level upon reaching adulthood. Although they cannot compare to the pinnacle bloodlines of Human Race such as the Manka Planet People, they are still considered very good among Human Race!
Moreover, as the darlings of the earth, the Anjialuo Race have a great advantage in comprehending the Law of Earth.
Beside this Anjialuo Race sat a powerful Ape-man Race World Lord, who also spoke in a low voice, "We lone wolves are no match for the armies of those Cosmic Nation in terms of numbers. If we don't gather a certain number of people, the logistical costs will be too high. You've come at a good time. I've been waiting here for nine days, and we're still short 13 World Lord to gather a hundred people!"
"There's nothing we can do but wait!"
The two then raised their glasses and began drinking and chatting.
"Hey, look, someone else is coming." A space warrior's voice came from the side.
The powerful World Lord of the Anjialuo Race also turned his head to look, then suddenly stood up and respectfully bowed to the man in dark gold armor, saying, "Greetings, Your Excellency!"
"An Immortal God!"
"Is it Immortal from Origin Source Dragon Planet?"
"It shouldn't be. I've seen the Immortal on Source Dragon Planet, and most of them wear white robes!"
A few hushed whispers drifted from the surroundings.
At the same time, everyone stood up and respectfully bowed to Yang Wu, saying, "Greetings, Your Excellency!"
Yang Wu looked around and nodded slightly in acknowledgment.
Just then, the gate to the passageway beside the plaza suddenly opened, and an Immortal God dressed in white robes walked out of the passageway.
The white-robed Immortal God spotted Yang Wu in the arena and quickly walked over.
"Hello, I am Eaton, and I am here specifically to guide lone travelers who come to Source Dragon Planet. You are here to go to the Outer-Region Battlefield, right?" The white-robed Immortal God smiled, his eyes containing an astonishing Evil Qi.
"Yes!" Yang Wu nodded with a smile.
"Please wait a moment!" said the Immortal God Eaton with a smile.
Then, Eaton turned to look at the nearly ten thousand lone travelers in the square and said loudly, "Little guys, you are very lucky! Because your group has encountered an Immortal God, we no longer need to gather the quota of one hundred World Lord. Soon you will be teleported to the most glorious and also the most brutal Outer-Region Battlefield!"
Hearing this, the lone travelers knew they didn't need to wait any longer, and they were quite pleased.
"Great, we don't have to wait any longer!"
"We've gotten lucky this time!"
"Of course! That's Immortal God. Even if the logistical costs are high, we wouldn't have an Immortal God waiting here specifically for that!"
"The status of Immortal God is indeed high. I wonder if I'll ever have a chance to break through to Immortal?"
"Silence!" the Immortal God Eaton whispered.
The square immediately fell silent; you could hear a pin drop.
Eaton scanned the entire area and began quickly categorizing the nearly ten thousand lone pedestrians in the square.
"Universe Level, everyone assemble here."
"Domain Lord, assemble here."
Nearly ten thousand lone travelers were quickly separated, leaving only a few dozen World Lord Level powerhouses behind.
Eaton continued, "As for the World Lord Level experts, all of you come with me. We will conduct a traditional authority granting ceremony for you later."
"Permission granting ceremony?"
"What's the meaning?"
"What's that for?"
Although the group of World Lord remained silent, they were all whispering amongst themselves, clearly not fully aware of their specific experiences participating in the Outer-Region Battlefield.
However, among these people, there were a few who looked calm and collected, clearly indicating that they had powerful connections.
Eaton had already anticipated this, so he continued, "The authorization is to determine your exact location within the army after you arrive at the Outer-Region Battlefield!"
"The military is a hierarchical system where subordinates must obey their superiors. Therefore, the Virtual Universe Network will rate your strength based on your past performance in the Virtual Universe to determine your authority within the military!"
"The rating is divided into three levels: 'Ordinary World Lord Warrior,' 'Elite World Lord Warrior,' and 'World Lord General!'"
"If any of you haven't yet unleashed your full power in the Virtual Universe, you can now connect to the Virtual Universe and demonstrate it!"
Yang Wu stood aside and listened quietly.
Although the World Lord around him are all peerless geniuses, most World Lord in the vast universe are still quite ordinary.
Generally speaking, the vast majority of World Lord lords are ordinary World Lord warriors.
Those who can cultivate to the ninth level of the World Lord and have gained recognition from the Lower Origin Law World Lord, such as Jiang Tianchen of the Black Dragon Mountain Star Area, can barely be considered Elite World Lord Warrior.
As for World Lord General, only one Realm Elite World Lord Warrior World Lord General Warriors.
After saying this, Eaton handed over the authority to a subordinate, then turned to Yang Wu and said with a smile, "Although you are also a newcomer, as an Immortal God, you are naturally different from them. Come with me!"
Yang Wu then followed.
Eaton led Yang Wu into the passageway beside the square, asking as he guided him, "May I ask how I should address you?"
"Um..." Yang Wu thought for a moment and said, "You can call me 'Xia'."
He is now at the top of the Alien Race Assassination Ranking, and the Zerg Race have even sent Universe Venerable to take action against him, so he naturally cannot reveal any information about himself.
Although Universe Venerable are forbidden from entering the Outer-Region Battlefield, if Yang Wu really reveals his identity, it's questionable whether those Alien Race powerhouses will abide by the rules.
Therefore, Yang Wu was able to disguise himself as Immortal God and go to the Outer-Region Battlefield, which was a crucial part of his ability to deceive the Alien Race.
While the Auxiliary Metal Lifeform Kashi is far inferior to the Mo Yun Vine in defense and the Star-Eating Grass in offense, it is incredibly powerful in terms of possession and support.
Once Yang Wu is possessed by Kashi, he will be able to perfectly mobilize the strongest power he can muster. His only weakness is his soul.
Yang Wu's will is now comparable to that of Immortal God, and with the blessing of the Burning Heaven Treasure Mirror, even Universe Venerable cannot see through Yang Wu's disguise, let alone those Alien Race powerhouses on the Outer-Region Battlefield.
Soon, Yang Wu followed Eaton out of the passage and into a spacious hall.
Eaton looked at Yang Wu and said with a smile, "Xia, the war between these Four Peak Races involves a large number of cosmic warriors. The entire Outer-Region Battlefield is divided into eleven regions, all of which are outside our Human Territory, hence the name Outer-Region Battlefield. Normally, we would send batches of new recruits to Barracks Base in one of the Outer-Region Battlefield according to the assignment of the Virtual Universe System."
"However, as an Immortal God, you still have some privileges; you can decide which battlefield and Barracks Base to go to!"
World Lord Level powerhouses are insignificant among the Human Race, but Immortal God are a different story.
Every Immortal God possesses an eternal lifespan, and naturally enjoys certain privileges when venturing to the Outer-Region Battlefield.
"Are you familiar with these eleven Outer-Region Battlefield?" Eaton asked with a smile. "If not, I can give you a brief introduction!"
Yang Wu nodded and said, "I hope to go to the Seventh Battlefield, Barracks Base No. 026!"
The Seventh Starfield Battlefield is a Cosmic Secret Realm with a maximum diameter exceeding one million light-years.
After billions of years of slaughter, the danger of this Cosmic Secret Realm itself has become negligible; the main threat comes from enemies among other Alien Race.
There are a total of one hundred Barracks Base in the Seventh Battlefield, and each Barracks Base controls a different combat area.
For Yang Wu, one of the most important reasons for going to the Outer-Region Battlefield was to gather enough resources to maintain the operation of the Time Palace.
Within the area of Barracks Base No. 026 in the Seventh Outer-Region Battlefield lies an extremely advanced combat zone: the Yanji Continent.
The Yanji Continent itself is nothing special, but among the many powerful King Rank active on the Yanji Continent, there is one extremely special existence, the 'Purple Bell King'.
Yang Wu, who was familiar with the original work, knew very well that the Purple Bell King possessed an extremely powerful Heavy Treasure, the Demon Sound Fire God Bell, which should have already reached the level of a top-tier Heavy Treasure.
It's important to understand that offering an ordinary Heavy Treasure to Human Race typically yields only 0.5-1.5 Heavy Treasure points, and even a rare, sealed Heavy Treasure would only be worth 22 Heavy Treasure points. However, the Demon Sound Fire God Bell Contribution Points a whopping 89 Heavy Treasure points.
As an offensive Heavy Treasure, it not only possesses a set of offensive techniques but also defensive capabilities, capable of withstanding over 90% of Soul Attack and physical attacks.
It's safe to say that as long as Yang Wu can obtain the Purple Bell, he won't have to worry about the resource consumption for operating the Time Palace!
Of course, given Yang Wu's current strength, even dealing with Elementary King Level is somewhat dangerous, let alone dealing with the Purple Bell King, who possesses Peak King Level strength.
You should know that the Purple Bell King possesses Heavy Treasure, and he has even killed Limit King Level expert!
However, Yang Wu was not in a hurry. His strength could still be improved, and he would be able to deal with the Purple Bell King sooner or later.
So...
For these reasons, Yang Wu set his sights on the Yanji Continent as his first target.
"No problem!" Eaton said with a smile, "The Seventh Starfield Battlefield has an average mortality rate of 96.8%, ranking third among the eleven regions of the Outer-Region Battlefield. It's a pretty good training ground!"
Seeing that Yang Wu chose the correct Outer-Region Battlefield and Barracks Base without any hesitation, he already knew that Yang Wu had a deep understanding of the Outer-Region Battlefield, so he didn't explain further.
"Also, Xia, I need to perform an authorization ceremony for you. Do you need to prepare?"
Eaton smiled and said, "Since you are Immortal God, your status will be even more important after entering the Outer-Region Battlefield. It is mainly divided into three levels: 'Immortal Military Lord,' 'Marquis,' and 'King Rank.' There are also some differences in strength between each level!"
"Okay!" Yang Wu said with a smile.
"Then let's begin!"
As soon as Eaton finished speaking, a beam of blue light shot out from the screen on his arm and enveloped Yang Wu.
The rating of Virtual Universe System certainly does not include the assistance of various external objects.
However, as a disciple of the Lord of Longxing, Yang Wu had already made preparations in advance, so he didn't need to worry about being rated as a 'World Lord General'.
"Early Marquis!"
The protagonist's name will most likely be his future title of King Rank. I'm terrible at naming things, so can you guys help me think of some?
