Star Level Seven

"Wow, it really is true that murder and arson bring wealth!"

After the spoils were sorted out, everyone was very surprised.

"Xiao Qing, these are all your spoils of war," Luo Feng and the others said, none of them intending to take a share.

Xu Qing didn't stand on ceremony, "I don't want weapons or treasures, but I can use the Universe Crystal. Brother-in-law, you can keep them for me."

"Okay," Luo Feng nodded.

"We've already exchanged quite a few treasures, so we need to hurry up and continue mining for Thunder Stone, otherwise they'll be completely exchanged soon," Luo Feng said.

Afterwards, Xu Qing and his group continued digging for Thunder Stone.

Meanwhile, in the core area, the Star Level army of over a thousand men was annihilated, and Brolin, the Ninth Prince of the Black Dragon Empire and the Legion Commander, quickly received the news.

"What?! The Third Legion was wiped out? Not a single one survived?! How is that possible?!" Brolin exclaimed in shock.

That was an army of over a thousand Star Level Warrior and Spirit Controller; even a first-tier Universe Level expert couldn't wipe them all out.

"It's true, Ninth Prince. Their life force vanished within just a few minutes," the subordinate reported.

Ninth Prince Brolin frowned. "Could it be that those three adventurers are carrying some powerful trump card?"

"Very likely," the subordinate thought so too. In any case, being able to wipe out more than a thousand Star Level experts in a short time was absolutely terrifying, far more terrifying than their Laser Gun.

"I didn't expect such insignificant people to have such methods. In that case, let's not provoke them for now," Brolin said after weighing the options.

Now, other forces are eyeing him covetously, and he has already lost a legion of a thousand men; he cannot afford any more problems.

"Understood," the subordinate nodded.

On the other side, deep within the mountains, the earth trembled slightly.

"Success! My Mo Yun Vine has successfully evolved to the Universe Level, and it's even at the second tier of the Universe Level!" Luo Feng was overjoyed.

Unexpectedly, his Mo Yun Vine was the most advanced one to evolve to the Universe Level, while even his Golden Horned Behemoth body was still evolving and had not yet broken through to the Universe Level.

His Golden Horned Behemoth form had devoured a perfectly proportioned amount of metal, causing his growth rate to increase by 89 times.

Even so, it's still not as fast as the Mo Yun Vine directly devouring a Life Fruit.

"Great! The third brother's Mo Yun Vine has evolved to the Universe Level, making it invincible here. The Fourth Brother won't need to take action anymore," Thor laughed.

"That's right, Luo Feng's Mo Yun Vine has reached the Universe Level. The length of a single Long Vine is over two hundred kilometers. With seventy-two Long Vine combined, it's practically unmatched here," Babata added.

After a pause, Babata continued, "With the Universe Level Mo Yun Vine, you can go and ambush those people, taking everything they have— Thunder Stone, Universe Crystal, treasures—they'll all be ours!"

"That's right, that's how we should do it. Damn it, we've always been the ones being hunted down, now we can finally hunt others down!" Thor had wanted to do this for a long time.

If it weren't for Xu Qing, they would have been in a very sorry state.

"Alright, it's time for us to go hunting. Babata, get the Spaceship out and let's start the treasure hunt!" A golden glint flashed in Luo Feng's eyes, carrying a bloodthirsty glint.

Don't forget, his current true form is the Golden Horned Behemoth Golden Horned Behemoth, which is notorious throughout the universe for its brutality and bloodthirstiness.

Soon, a Spaceship appeared out of thin air in mid-air.

"Looks like I won't be making an appearance," Xu Qing stretched.

"Xiao Qing, just watch us from now on," Luo Feng said with a smile.

Inside the Spaceship, Xu Qing sat with his legs crossed, humming a song, "I am the wind, you are the sand, skinned and gutted, then thrown into the oil..."

Upon hearing these lyrics, Luo Feng and the others couldn't help but twitch their eyes.

"Hahaha... genius," Babata laughed heartily.

"Alright, let's get started," Luo Feng interrupted Babata. The next step would require the combined efforts of Mo Yun Vine and Babata.

Soon, the screen lit up, showing many groups of adventurers, numbering in the thousands, scattered around, searching for any lone adventurer groups.

As for what they were going to do, it was obvious: to rob and kill.

In the scene, a seven-person squad is wiped out, and their belongings are taken, especially the Thunder Stone and the Universe Crystal.

"Begin the hunt!" Luo Feng ordered.

From underground, the enormous Mo Yun Vine stretched out its Long Vine, locked onto the captains of those large groups, dragged them underground, killed them instantly, and then seized their Space Ring.

"Captain!" The men immediately burrowed underground to search for him, but only found a body; the Space Ring were gone.

"Oh no! Someone's stealing the peaches! Report this to the captain immediately!"

At the same time, long Long Vine returned to the Spaceship, bringing back the spoils of war, including Space Ring, Space Bracelet, and Space Belt.

"It's a pity, that large group had Precision Detector, so we couldn't get close, otherwise we would have robbed them all," Babata with some regret.

"Continue," Mo Yun Vine and Babata quickly went out to work again.

Inside the Spaceship, Luo Feng and his team categorized and organized the items in the storage spaces.

They discovered not only a large quantity of Universe Crystal and Thunder Stone, but also several treasures.

"Haha, this time we're really going to strike it rich!" Thor couldn't stop grinning.

Hong could not hide his excitement.

Luo Feng was just as happy. Just as he was about to share it with Xu Qing, he saw Xu Qing lying on the seat in a completely unseemly manner, like a corpse, sprawled out with his head tilted back.

"Does Xiao Qing always sleep like this?" Luo Feng was speechless; this was too bizarre.

I wonder how scary it would be at night.

"Never mind," Luo Feng said, turning his gaze away and continuing to sort through the spoils with Hong and Thor.

Before long, war broke out. The two million Star Level were divided into several factions and fought fiercely in the core area of World-within-a-World.

Luo Feng and his group launched a surprise attack amidst the chaos. At first, they were very successful, hitting their targets every time. However, they were eventually noticed and had to stop.

The battle lasted for nearly two months, resulting in the deaths of more than two-thirds of the population, leaving fewer than 600,000 survivors.

"Stellar Level Seven, achieved," Xu Qing awoke from his cultivation that day.

During this time, he focused on cultivation and successfully broke through to the Stellar Level Seven.

His Spiritual Force also advanced, reaching the fifth level of the Star Level.

"Fourth Brother, your cultivation speed is much faster than ours," Thor said enviously. He had only recently broken through to the Stellar Level Three, and now he felt that he was still far from the fourth level.

Xu Qing glanced at him, "Second brother, you've been so engrossed in treasure hunting lately, you can't stop getting excited, have you been seriously cultivating?"

"Um... well," Thor was speechless. He thought back and realized that he had been focusing all his attention on treasure hunting lately and hadn't had much time to seriously cultivate.

Hong and Luo Feng exchanged a glance. Like Thor, they hadn't been able to focus on cultivation much lately.

"It's alright. In these extraordinary times, acquiring treasures is important. These cultivation resources will be crucial for your future cultivation," Babata said indifferently.

It's only been two months; compared to what we've gained, it's insignificant.

"So, I've broken through! Looks like I'll be the first person to break through to the Universe Level," Xu Qing laughed, quite pleased with himself.

Luo Feng and the others shook their heads with a smile. This Fourth Brother was getting cocky.

No, Xu Qing's statement doesn't seem wrong either; he will indeed be the first of the four to break through to the Universe Level.

Of course, this is on the premise that Luo Feng's Golden Horned Behemoth is excluded, because the Golden Horned Behemoth is already at the ninth level of the Star Level and is on its way to evolving into the Universe Level.

"The great battle is over, and we've collected over 11 million Thunder Stone, along with thirteen treasures. It's time to exchange them," Luo Feng said with a smile.

"We need to be more careful going to the castle now. So many people have died, the allied forces must have developed a rift with each other," Hong pondered.

"Okay, let's go. After we exchange the treasures, we'll go out together with the people from Three Axe Mountain," the group agreed.

When Xu Qing and his group arrived at the core area, they found that the atmosphere here was indeed different; it was tense and filled with murderous intent.

"Huh, weren't there three of you before? How come there are four now?" The people from the Three Axe Mountain lineage asked in surprise.

"There have always been four of us, we just divide the work," Luo Feng explained with a smile.

The person checked Xu Qing's identity and found that there was indeed such a person, someone whom Lord Ming Yu had spoken to.

"Go in," the man said, letting them through.

As night fell, Xu Qing and his companions mingled in the crowd, looking towards the direction of the castle.

As you can see, many people dressed in battle armor and wearing masks and helmets entered the castle.

Some of these people are deliberately trying to mislead others, while others are taking advantage of the situation and are genuinely there to exchange for treasures.

"I'm going too," Luo Feng said, also wrapping himself up tightly, and then walked towards the castle.

About half an hour later, Luo Feng came out and returned to the Three Axe Mountain camp.

"Brother-in-law, how is it?" Xu Qing and the others looked at him.

Luo Feng shook his head. "All the good stuff is gone. I can only exchange what's left. We still have several hundred thousand Thunder Stone."

"Fortunately, the remaining Thunder Secret Technique are still there. Second Brother, I've exchanged them all for you. A World Lord's secret techniques are quite good."

"Thanks, Third Brother," Thor was very pleased. It was a cultivation secret method of a World Lord, and it suited him very well.

"There are still people within the coalition buying up Thunder Stone; we can make a move," Hong suggested.

Luo Feng nodded. "That's what I think too."

After considering it, Xu Qing and his group sold the hundreds of thousands of Thunder Stone they had to the strongest forces, at varying prices.

However, after selling them all, they also obtained more than 20 million cubic meters of Universe Crystal.

In addition to the approximately three million cubic meters of Universe Crystal they had previously mined, plus the more than six million cubic meters of Universe Crystal they had plundered.

In total, there were more than 30 million Universe Crystal.

The actual number should be higher, because Babata hid some of them.

"My God, tens of millions of cubic meters of Universe Crystal!" Thor was so shocked by the number that he couldn't close his mouth.

However, compared to these tens of millions of Universe Crystal, the treasure is still more important.

Even the lowest-ranked Fifth-Order Force Weapon far surpasses these tens of millions of Universe Crystal.

World Lord's weapon contains the Origin Law, and for World Lord is compatible with it, it can greatly enhance their strength.

"It's a pity we don't have a fifth-tier bow, otherwise it would be very useful to Xiao Qing," Luo Feng said.

Unfortunately, although there are many Tier 5 Force Weapon, there is no bow.

"It's alright, I wouldn't dare use it now even if you gave it to me. It's still a long way from when I need to change my bow. Let's take it slow and level up first," Xu Qing said nonchalantly.

The three of them looked at his nonchalant expression and smiled. "You really are detached from worldly desires."

"What do you mean by being without desires? I'm not a monk, how could I be without desires? I just have self-awareness," Xu Qing rolled his eyes and corrected them.

"Haha..." They all laughed.

Suddenly, a light shone above the castle, and the old man with the white beard reappeared.

"Little ones, just now, the last treasure was also redeemed. The redemption is now complete. Goodbye!"

After he finished speaking, the white-bearded old man dispersed, and the castle gates slowly closed.

"Huh? Did I hear that right? All the treasures have been redeemed?"

"You heard me right, that's what they said."

"Oh my god, I still have Thunder Stone to redeem! I haven't redeemed them yet..."

Many people are getting anxious. Some people have just bought a lot of Thunder Stone from others, but now it's all useless.

"Haha, those people are probably going to be furious," Xu Qing laughed gleefully.

Luo Feng and the others laughed too; some were happy, some were sad.

With the treasures exchanged, this journey within World-within-a-World has come to an end, and the allied forces are preparing to depart and return to the outside world.

Once the expedition begins, the alliance will crumble, and the allied forces will become enemies.

At that time, they will definitely fight again, vying for the treasures they have exchanged for.

Similarly, the battle situation here is also related to the power struggles among the bigwigs outside.

Without a doubt, more bloodshed is about to occur.

After preparations were completed, the armies of the various forces set off one after another. "Three Axe Mountain, everyone listen up, move out!"

Nearly 80,000 people took to the air in a grand procession, flying towards the exit of the World-within-a-World.

Xu Qing and his three companions followed behind, wary of any potential enemy attacks.

"By the way, brother-in-law, didn't you say there were Railgun? Were they exchanged for by those people too?" Xu Qing suddenly asked.

"That's right, all three Railgun, all D6 Grade, were exchanged for in one go," Luo Feng replied.

Xu Qing rubbed his chin. "Be careful, I suspect someone might pull out Railgun and bombard us later."

Hearing Xu Qing say this, everyone was shocked. That was very dangerous. Although the Railgun was a pure energy attack and traveled in a straight line, once hit, Star Level being would definitely die, and even Universe Level being would not survive.

"We definitely need to be careful," Luo Feng and the others became alert.

"I wonder how the power of the Railgun compares to my arrows?" Xu Qing muttered.

Upon hearing this, Luo Feng and the others were startled and immediately grabbed him, "Fourth Brother, don't do anything reckless. That's Railgun, it's not something to be trifled with."
