The Trap
The Tianshang Secret Realm, the Great Rift, the God Kingdom Layer.
The endless God Kingdom drifted in the Space Interlayer, slowly fading away amidst the impacts of Space Fragment and the erosion of particle streams.
From time to time, one can see realm lords and even Immortal God entering and leaving different damaged God Kingdom. They are all powerful individuals who have obtained the opportunity to explore the Tianshang Secret Realm through various means.
The Space Fragment Layer is the first layer of the Space Interlayer. The closer you get to the Space Fragment Layer, the more powerful explorers you will find, including a large number of Realm Lord teams.
The deeper one goes into the Space Interlayer, the fewer explorers there are. In particular, at the depths of the God Kingdom Layer, World Lord Level explorers have disappeared. Even ordinary Immortal God find it difficult to survive in the violent Space Fragment Storm and particle streams here.
Deep within the God Kingdom Layer, nearing the Space Torrent Layer, lies a damaged God Kingdom, more than half of which has been eroded. This God Kingdom is so vast that even its remains far exceed many nearly intact God Kingdom in the shallower God Kingdom Layer. Judging from the size of this God Kingdom God Kingdom Remains, one can tell that its former owner was an Immortal Expert absorbed countless Space Fragment over the years.
Beneath the God Kingdom, inside a massive spaceship, a human-bodied, snake-headed figure spoke with a hint of surprise, "The target has actually left the Xuanshang Universe Country and gone to the Nine Great Trash Star Fields. They are currently in the Chizhi Star Field, having just left the Wulong Star Field."
Another man with a human body and a wolf's head asked doubtfully, "Where did you get this intelligence? Humans manage and guard the Junk Starfield extremely strictly. How could we have infiltrated it?"
"Intelligence sent by the Zerg." The snake-headed man's expression was somewhat strange.
"The Zerg?" The wolf-headed man frowned. "Hmph, they've infiltrated humanity quite deeply, and they've infiltrated us quite thoroughly as well."
The Zerg's intelligence system is the strongest among the Four Peak Races, and even the strongest among all the top powers. Except for the Machine Race, which is not so afraid of it, humans and Monster Race abhor it. However, it is quite convenient if they are allies.
"Wait, why would they be so kind as to send us intelligence?" The wolf-headed man still couldn't understand.
The Four Peak Races often cooperate in assassinating each other's geniuses. When the Zerg produces an unparalleled genius, the humans, Monster Race, and Machine Race sometimes exchange intelligence and cooperate. Monster Race produce a genius, the Zerg, humans, and Machine Race also frequently exchange intelligence.
However, when it comes to assassinating a super genius of Kedi's caliber, each race tends to prefer keeping the kill to themselves.
The reason is that the opportunities and secrets of such geniuses are extremely valuable. Once successful, they can not only weaken the potential of the opposing race and extinguish the budding super strongmen, but also gain a great deal. The gains of the Zerg in killing Kedi are the envy of other races.
Let alone Kedi, even before Jiang Yao and Chiling rose to prominence, the Seven Sword King, humanity's most dazzling genius, were suspected of obtaining some extremely precious inheritance and treasures from the Ancestral God Sect.
"Perhaps they want us to make the first move? Are they certain we'll fail?" the wolf-headed man speculated.
The snake-headed man chuckled strangely, "Perhaps even the Zerg are powerless, haha. Even if they can lay down their pieces in the Nine Great Trash Star Fields, can Jiang Yao be compared to the core geniuses of the five major human powers in the past? With the combat power of Marquis Immortal, those Silver Wings, and who knows what other treasures the Chaos City Lord bestowed upon him, even King-level Immortal would find it difficult to deal with him in a short time. It's enough for the Venerable protect the Junk Starfield, or even Youyuan, to take action."
"As for the Venerable, hehe, the Zerg have the ability to allow the Venerable to sneak into the Junk Starfield? It seems we're in luck this time."
The wolf-headed man nodded and said, "Thanks to His Youmo Master of the Netherworld's wise decision, our arrangements were quite perfect. However, Jiang Yao still hasn't come to the Tianshang Secret Realm..."
"Hehe, don't worry, this Great Rift is... it's the battle remnant of that person." The snake-headed man's expression was a mixture of fear and relief. "No powerful cultivator who cultivates the Universe Chaos Stele will fail to come. Jiang Yao went to the Junk Starfield, most likely to collect materials for refining Super Divine Weapon, so he will definitely come to the Tianshang Secret Realm."
"Even if he comes, the God Kingdom Remains in this Great Rift are endless. How can we lure him here?" The wolf-headed man asked the question that had been puzzling him for a long time.
A smile played on the snake-headed man's metallic face, "The clan has already made arrangements, and it will be delivered soon. With this item, he will definitely come."
"Your Prince Jiang Yao, are you going back?"
In the Hongcheng Star Field, one of the Nine Great Trash Star Fields, the representative of the Virtual Universe Company asked.
"Yes, it's time to go back." Jiang Yao nodded and replied, "You've worked hard these past years."
"Haha, it's not hard at all. The Hongcheng Star Field is guarded by Universe Venerable. I doubt any Alien Race would have the ability or the courage to make a move here." The person in charge smiled broadly, but inwardly he breathed a sigh of relief.
As one of the Nine Great Trash Star Fields, the Hongcheng Star Field naturally has a complete alert system. All treasure hunters in the Junk Starfield are marked with red or white dots to indicate whether they are internal or external members. The system can respond to unexpected situations at any time through monitoring, and the highest level can even call on the Universe Venerable to descend.
However, Jiang Yao's identity is special and cannot be regarded as a genius at the Core Layer of the five major forces. During the years that Jiang Yao has been in Taobao, he has always been highly vigilant and on alert at all times. Once an accident occurs, especially an assassination attempt by Alien Race, the alert system will respond immediately.
The person in charge muttered to himself, "This guy isn't some ordinary Domain Lord- level genius. As the disciple of the Chaos City Lord, treasure hunting in the Trash Mountain is just a pastime for him. Over millions of years, very few people have managed to find valuable items in the Trash Mountain. It's extremely strange that Jiang Yao is spending so much time on such a meaningless thing."
"Your Highness, treasure hunting in this Trash Mountain is just for fun. Very few people actually gain anything, so it's normal to find nothing. When I first took office, I also spent a lot of time in the Trash Mountain, and in the end, I came up empty-handed. The garbage in the World Ring is not as valuable as the World Ring itself that I bought."
Seeing Jiang Yao's somewhat gloomy expression, the person in charge casually comforted him, "I remember more than a thousand epochs ago, the Moloong King also came to the Hongcheng Star Field to hunt for treasures. Tsk tsk, he spent over a thousand years and still came up empty-handed. Actually, even if he had found something, the Moloong King probably wouldn't have cared about it."
Moloong King?
Jiang Yao was taken aback, his heart skipped a beat, but he asked calmly, "Isn't Moloong King Invincible King-level expert of the Universe Mercenary Alliance? Would he come to Trash Mountain to scavenge?"
"Who knows?" the person in charge chuckled. "I heard that even the Moloong King, like Your Highness, traveled all over the Nine Great Trash Star Fields, spending a whole epoch in the process."
"Moloong King ..." Jiang Yao thought to himself, "I should ask Seventh Senior Sister later. Maybe Moloong King is the owner of the Yedier Inheritance Communication Talisman. Even if Moloong King isn't, these Nine Great Trash Star Fields have probably been screened out many times by the owners of Inheritance Token within humanity. It seems that this path is blocked."
The appearance of Yedier's Inheritance Token did not cause a great stir. In fact, the whereabouts of most Inheritance Token are very secretive, and those who obtain Inheritance Token do not make a big fuss about it. Even Youyuan Venerable may not know how many Inheritance Token the Human Race or even the Hong Alliance have.
Jiang Yao spent over two hundred years searching the Nine Great Trash Star Fields. Although the search wasn't very thorough, the Star Core showed no signs of movement, which basically confirms that there shouldn't be any fragments of the <Shixing Canon> in the Junk Starfield.
Although he didn't get what he wanted most, Jiang Yao didn't come away empty-handed. The 9 million points worth of Immortal Weapon Remnants he purchased, plus many less valuable weapon fragments he collected in the Trash Mountain, meant that he had all the materials needed to forge a cosmic Super Divine Weapon.
In addition, he also used the more powerful "Space-Time Annihilation Intent" to trigger a space-time reversal, and identified and collected some weapon fragments of the Yan God Race, which may include Soldier Armor or even General Armor. This gift is definitely enough to give to his future junior brother Luo Feng.
"It's time to go back..." Jiang Yao felt the increasingly strong Annihilation Intent merging with his will and consciousness. "Next, I should go to the Tianshang Secret Realm to comprehend the Space-Time Law while refining a Super Divine Weapon. After forging the Super Divine Weapon, World Break Lord level. Then I'll try my luck at the Tenth Outer-Region Battlefield. After all, it's the stronghold of the Shixing Race, and perhaps I can gain something there."
Possessing the powerful inheritances of the supreme and profound laws of time and space, namely the Zhenhuang and the Years, and with his own extremely strong will and consciousness, as well as the powerful law compatibility brought by the Desolate God Bizhang and Chiling, and the Universe Chaos Stele image inscribed in the Xu Yuan Space using the Yan Script, it can be said that Jiang Yao's cultivation speed of the laws of time and space far surpasses that of the World Lord Level geniuses of the five major forces.
For him, whether or not he breaks through to the World Lord Level has a negligible impact on his comprehension of laws or even his strength improvement; it's simply a matter of whether he needs it or not.
Jiang Yao was somewhat surprised that the Alien Race hadn't made a move despite him spending so many years scouring the Trash Mountain in the Nine Great Trash Star Fields.
He didn't know about other races, but the Zerg had definitely infiltrated the Junk Starfield, even hacking into the trading system. There was no way they wouldn't know they were in the Junk Starfield.
But there was no movement whatsoever.
Once he returns to the Xuanshang Universe Country, the Alien Race will have even less of a chance. Even in the Tianshang Secret Realm, during the Great Rift, Youyuan Venerable can descend at any time.
After bidding farewell to the head of the Hongcheng Star Field, Jiang Yao boarded a spaceship and left the last Junk Starfield, heading towards the Xuanshang Universe Country.
The vast and boundless God Kingdom, within the towering and majestic temple.
A green-skinned man with a black horn hurried across the corridor, pushed open the golden door, and saw a figure inside the hall shrouded in a golden robe.
"Master!" the green-skinned man knelt and said, "According to intelligence, the target has left the 'Hongcheng Star Field' and is likely heading back to the Xuanshang Universe Country."
The Golden-Robed Man narrowed his eyes and ordered, "Alright, report the intelligence to the Monster Race."
The green-skinned man was startled. "Are you really going to hand over Jiang Yao to the Monster Race?"
"Heh heh, let him go?" the Golden-Robed Man, "Do you think Jiang Yao is so easy to assassinate? His threat level has already been classified as red within the clan. His death would be the greatest gain for the clan. It's acceptable for him to be killed by the Monster Race, even if the Monster Race obtains Jiang Yao's fortune and treasures."
If the Monster Race's operation fails, it will also allow us to see Jiang Yao's trump cards and what loopholes exist in humanity's protection of him, making our actions more targeted!
