Swallowed Star: Heaven-Defying Comprehension, Joining the Chat Group
Venerable Wanshan looked at Jiang Li, who remained calm, nodded slightly, and said decisively, "Due to the Alliance's regulations, Abusica cannot enter the Thunder World to help you."
"You have to rely on yourself for everything, understand?"
"But..."
He paused for a moment, then suddenly smiled and said, "If you ever encounter a life-or-death situation, remember to tell your master!"
"Um?"
Jiang Li was taken aback, a hint of surprise appearing in his eyes.
Just because they're all members of the Universe Mercenary Alliance, does that mean Venerable Wanshan can break the rules?
"Rest assured."
Venerable Wanshan waved his hand dismissively and said calmly, "I still have some influence within the Universe Mercenary Alliance."
Thank you, teacher!
Jiang Li's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately understood what Venerable Wanshan meant.
Violating the regulations of the Universe Mercenary Alliance will definitely have an impact on him.
But compared to my own situation, this impact is insignificant.
"Why are you so distant with me, your master and disciple?"
Venerable Wanshan feigned displeasure and said, "Furthermore, your talent is exceptional; you must not slack off in your cultivation..."
"Especially regarding the Origin Law, if you encounter any confusion, please feel free to ask your teacher for help!"
"Disciple understands!"
Jiang Li responded immediately.
"Since you are currently in a crisis, I will not test you."
Venerable Wanshan waved his hand and said, "Go, be careful in everything you do. Your master will be waiting for you on Canglan Star!"
'Call'!
Upon hearing the last sentence, even someone as powerful as Jiang Li couldn't help but tremble, his heart burning with emotion.
certainly.
On one hand, Jiang Li is incredibly talented, Venerable Wanshan hopes that he can inherit his <Ten Thousand Mountains Secret Art> before he can dare to venture into the Dragon Dawn Secret Realm.
On the other hand, there are lessons to be learned from the past. If Venerable Wanshan had paid more attention back then, his first disciple Luolin, might not have perished.

Chapter 174 The Black Cloud Society
174.
The core area of World Within a World.
This place was once a beautiful plain, but now it has become a blood-stained battlefield.
Meanwhile, the four members of the Blue Star group huddled in the grass on the hillside, watching the bloody battle.
"Another fight breaks out. It's really not worth it for a few hundred cubic meters of Universe Crystal stacks..."
Thunder God gazed at the distant sky where dazzling lights shot forth, and couldn't help but sigh.
They now possess 300,000 cubic meters of Universe Crystal, so naturally they feel it's not worth it.
However, a few hundred cubic meters of Universe Crystal would be worth billions of Ganwu City, enough to buy a large number of Stellar Level ninth-tier slaves!
"People die for wealth, birds die for food; it's human nature."
Hong glanced at the Auxiliary Optical Computer, which was covered with countless red dots in all directions. "This person is even more terrifying than a beast tide!"
"I wonder how many people have died!"
Luo Feng looked horrified.
It wasn't that he was afraid of the sheer number of people, but rather that the scene of the battle was bloody and terrifying.
In front of them, several miles to tens of miles away, there were more than a thousand corpses piled up, both men and women, some intact and some incomplete, some human, some demi-human, and even some beast-like.
Their only thing in common was that they were both dead.
"Small forces have no way to compete for great opportunities, so they can only choose to fight on the periphery and plunder Universe Crystal."
Jiang Li sighed, "Let's go."
The four continued towards the core castle. Along the way, they occasionally saw deep pits dug out, clearly remnants of the excavation of Universe Crystal.
At the bottom of some deep pits lay the haphazardly scattered corpses of Stellar Level adventurers—truly making the most of everything.
"Hmm? It's Ye Changge?"
Hong suddenly received a call request from the Virtual Universe.
After he and Thunder God broke through to the Stellar Level, they each opened their own accounts.
"I received it too."
Thunder God said, "I met her when I was adventuring with Brother Hong. She's Universe Adventurer from the Black Cloud Society, a nice person."
"They probably want to win you over."
Jiang Li nodded slightly, having roughly guessed what was going on.
Subsequently.
Hong and Thunder God enter the Virtual Universe Network.
"Ha ha."
Once the communication was established, Ye Changge saw Hong and Thunder God and laughed loudly, "I knew you two were tough; you definitely wouldn't die!"
Her appearance was no different from that of a human from Blue Star; she wore a black battle suit, and her short, ear-length hair accentuated her heroic and dashing figure.
"You didn't die either, did you?"
Thunder God let go of his mouth.
"Changge, you've entered the World Within a World too?"
Hong cut to the chase and asked.
He had invited Ye Changge when he and Thunder God planned to venture into the Thunder World, but she declined.
It's hard for Hong not to have guessed that he would suddenly be contacted like this.
"Right."
Ye Changge nodded, a hint of sorrow flashing across his face as he said, "It wasn't just me; Gudewen and Xiluoteya came in too, but they weren't as lucky as me..."
My condolences.
With a pause in their voices, Hong and Thunder God sighed in unison.
Those at the ninth level of the Stellar Level have all died in droves; it's pure luck that those below the ninth level survived.
"Let's not talk about that..."
Ye Changge said with concern, "The entrance to the Thunder World is currently blocked by the major forces of Black Dragon Mountain."
Even if you obtain the treasure, it will be useless; you'll still die once you leave!
"Why don't you two join our Black Cloud Society? At least you'll have a chance to leave alive!"
Upon hearing this...
Hong and Thunder God exchanged a glance and shook their heads.
"You two shouldn't take any chances!"
Seeing this.
Ye Changge said urgently, "There's an Immortal God, six World Lord, and dozens of domain lords outside..."
"Even if the master of the Thunder World is resurrected, he will have to obediently accept his fate!"
"What are the conditions?"
Hong hesitated for a moment, then asked directly.
"All the treasures you obtained before are yours. Just obey the Black Cloud Society's orders and seize the final treasure."
Ye Changge informed all parties of the situation. "Except for the Two Holy Lands which have to hand over a certain amount of Universe Crystal, all other forces are treated the same, regardless of the treasures they obtained before!"
"Wait a minute."
Hong withdrew from the Virtual Universe Network and explained the situation to Jiang Li and Luo Feng.
"I'll listen to Brother Jiang."
Luo Feng is very straightforward.
"Master, joining them will definitely save us a lot of trouble."
Jiang Li pondered for a moment and said, "Besides, we don't need to fight for the final treasure!"
Upon hearing this...
Both Hong and Luo Feng's eyes lit up.
According to the declarations made by all parties to win them over, all the previous gains belonged to individuals, so the 90 million Thunderstone naturally had nothing to do with the Black Cloud Society.
At the core of World Within a World, outside a giant castle.
"These two are my brothers with Thunder God, Jiang Li and Luo Feng."
After reuniting with Ye Changge, Hong introduced her, "Her name is Ye Changge. I met her when I was adventuring on Bona Star with Thunder God."
"And Gudewen and Xiluoteya, unfortunately they died in Wind Thunder Gorge."
Ye Changge sighed.
He immediately shook his head, adjusting his mindset, and said, "See that giant, deep blue castle ahead? That's the core of the World Within a World, the real treasure is inside. Right now, all the forces are waiting for the lightning on the outer perimeter to stop."
"Our Black Cloud Society divided into three formations: front, middle, and rear. The recruited free adventurers are all in the first formation."
