Yan Ning, after experiencing over ten thousand consecutive spatial teleportations, descended like a meteor onto a desolate planet.
With a thunderous "boom," he cratered a massive pit, dust and debris flying in all directions.
Yan Ning struggled to his feet from the bottom of the pit.
He hastily stopped burning his divine power, feeling as if all his strength had been drained, panting heavily, each breath carrying a labored "wheeze."
"Huff... huff... This battle nearly cost me my life."
Yan Ning muttered to himself, his face etched with exhaustion.
He looked down at his body, his heart aching.
"Killed over ten thousand Immortal Zerg, lost thirty-five percent—this price is way too steep. Basically got nothing out of it."
If it weren't for completing the check-in mission, he would never have done something this foolish.
Looking around, this barren planet was utterly silent, the gray sky devoid of any sign of life.
He didn't even know his current location; his teleportation had been a random direction.
He waved his hand and retrieved his spaceship from the World Ring.
In an instant, he entered it.
"Go, back to the Barracks Base."
Yan Ning gave the order.
"Understood, master."
The spaceship roared to life and vanished from its spot.
Inside the ship, Yan Ning sat cross-legged.
He began to regulate his breathing and recover.
"I wonder if this system check-in reward can make up for my losses. If it's not that great, then I've really taken a huge loss."
Yan Ning murmured softly.
He silently called out to the system in his mind.
"System, check-in!"
[Ding! Congratulations, host, for completing the check-in mission of killing ten thousand Immortal Zerg!]
[Reward: Special Life Form, Black Hole Clone]
"Black Hole Clone?"
Yan Ning was stunned, and then a stream of information appeared before his eyes.
Yan Ning's expression shifted from initial surprise to excitement, and finally to sheer ecstasy!!
"Damn, system, where did you dig up this clone?!"
Black Hole Clone.
The system had set it based on his current strength level.
Rated at King Level!
Its volume was directly 50 billion kilometers in diameter!
Fifty billion kilometers!!
He never imagined the system could turn a celestial body into his clone!
Everyone knows what a black hole is, but its volume wasn't the main point.
The main point was its density.
Over a trillion times that of the sun!!
Transformed into an immortal Divine Body, it was nearly indestructible!
That meant, from now on, he no longer had to worry about divine power.
Secondly, there were the Black Hole Clone's innate secret techniques.
One of the innate secret techniques: Devour!
But this wasn't ordinary devouring—it was super devouring.
It amplified the black hole's inherent devouring ability by billions of times; anything sucked in would be instantly crushed!
Any object devoured would be converted into pure energy to supply itself.
Another innate secret technique: Black Domain!
Simply put, it was a domain-type innate secret technique.
Within this domain's range, the Black Hole Clone's control over time and space was greatly enhanced.
It could also suppress any creature that entered this area.
Combined with Devour.
Once you enter the Black Domain, death is almost certain!!
Aside from those two points.
The spatial talent of the Black Hole Clone is terrifyingly formidable.
It's probably not inferior to the World Tree!
And the very, very last point.
Nine thousand times the gene level.
That's right, nine thousand times!!
His current body.
After five transformations, plus the hundredfold basic gene reward from the system, it only reached 4800 times.
The Black Hole Clone's foundation alone surpassed the accumulation he had built over billions of years.
The top priority now is to find a place to deploy the Black Hole Clone.
It definitely can't be placed here directly.
The Black Hole Clone is too large in volume.
It's best to put it in an uninhabited star system.
"Better return to human territory first."
Yan Ning ordered in a deep voice: "Exit the Dark Universe!"
"Hum—"
The twisted space outside the spaceship instantly returned to normal, and the porthole once again revealed the brilliant starry sky.
His gaze swept over the star map and locked onto a barren rocky planet—about thirty thousand kilometers in diameter, its surface covered with rift valleys, a thin atmosphere, and utterly devoid of life signs.
"Here it is."
The spaceship slowly descended onto the planet's surface. The moment the hatch opened, Yan Ning stepped out, and the ground beneath his feet instantly cracked into a web of fissures.
He raised his hand and waved, and a diamond-shaped crystal glowing with golden light floated in his palm—it was his Divine Kingdom coordinate token!
"Go!"
The token turned into a streak of light and embedded itself deep into the planet's core.
Yan Ning closed his eyes to sense it, and the Divine Kingdom coordinates quickly bound themselves to the spatial fluctuations of this planet.
Since he was returning to human territory, the fastest method was naturally the Divine Kingdom Teleportation.
Flying back would take who knows how many years.
To make it convenient to return to the Outer Domain Battlefield.
He naturally needed to leave another Divine Kingdom coordinate here as well.
For easy return.
After doing all this.
"Divine Kingdom... Summon!"
"Boom—"
A dazzling golden light suddenly burst forth from his entire body, and complex spatial secret patterns emerged beneath his feet. The rock within a thousand-meter radius instantly vaporized!
A golden pillar of light, piercing through dimensions, descended from the sky, enveloping Yan Ning within it.
Countless secret patterns swirled inside the light pillar—this was the spacetime passage connecting the "Divine Kingdom" and the "Original Universe"!
"Teleport!"
Yan Ning's figure gradually faded within the light pillar.
At the very last moment, he glanced back at the desolate starry sky and curled the corner of his mouth: "Purple-haired bug, next time we meet... I'll give you a big gift!"
Human Territory · Ganwu Universe Kingdom.
"Whoosh!"
On the teleportation platform of a certain military-controlled planet, a golden pillar of light suddenly flared to life.
Before the stationed Realm Lord warriors could react, a figure wrapped in a bloody, murderous aura had already materialized.
"An Undying!"
"Quick, activate the identification procedure!"
The warriors nervously activated their detectors, but when they scanned the flaming Law imprint on Yan Ning's brow, the system immediately issued a prompt:
Permission confirmed: Demon Flame King, Virtual Universe Company core member, highest travel clearance.
Yan Ning couldn't be bothered with the bystanders and simply transformed into a streak of light, charging into space.
He didn't even remember where he had left his Divine Kingdom coordinates—just that it was somewhere within human territory.
He had just picked one at random and teleported over.
He took out the spaceship.
"Search for the nearest uninhabited starfield."
The intelligent optical computer responded swiftly: Search complete. The nearest uninhabited starfield is the Ashen Starfield.
Range: Covers 12,000 star systems, approximately 86,000 light-years in diameter.
Environment: Chaotic spatial currents run rampant, stellar remnants are dense, and energy tides erupt periodically.
Signs of life: No intelligent civilizations, only a few star pirate strongholds hidden within.
A flicker of satisfaction passed through Yan Ning's eyes.
"Not bad. This is the place."
He gave the order without hesitation.
"Contact the Virtual Universe Company and buy this starfield for me!"
After a brief pause, the intelligent optical computer responded: "Master, although the Ashen Starfield is unclaimed territory, purchasing an entire starfield requires filing with the Cosmic Mercenary Alliance and paying approximately 320 million Hunyuan Units."
"Buy it!"
