Four months later.
The Rongbing Starfield was a medium-large starfield with an extremely vast spacetime volume located deep within the Ganwu Great Star Zone. There were 13,427 known major galaxies within it, with over six hundred elementary cosmic civilization countries taking root there.
The major force ruling over this vast expanse of territory was the Rongbing Empire, a medium cosmic civilization country that was a civilization entity personally recognized by the great Ganwu Nation Lord.
Within the Rong Bing Empire, there were two immortal holy lands: the Rong Bing Holy Land and the Qiyao Holy Land. Although the empire itself was named after Rong Bing, the two holy lands jointly dominated this civilization country. There was a considerable amount of deep-seated cooperation within the two holy lands, making the Rong Bing Empire's rule over the surrounding vast region extremely solid.
On this day, in the outer space of the Rongbing Empire's Imperial Capital Star, a vast cosmic fleet was solemnly docked in the vacuum. A full thousand or so various cosmic spaceships cast huge shadows on the planet's surface.
The configuration of such a fleet was luxurious enough to suffocate any domain lord-level existence.
Of the thousand-plus spaceships, the lowest-level ones were all D9-class, and more advanced E-class spaceships were everywhere. Each spaceship was like a Great Wall cast of steel, and many spaceships even had secret markings of the laws of space engraved on them, looking mysterious and powerful.
Right in the center of the fleet were two even more unfathomable spaceships. They presented a chilling and deep ice-blue and a sacred, dazzling pale gold respectively, with dense secret markings of the laws engraved on their surfaces, emitting the irresistible light of the laws.
Within the Rongbing Empire, many domain lord-level powerhouses knew that those two spaceships were the personal transport of the empire's two divine lords, both cast from expensive and precious F-class pure metals, with top-tier secret markings from the Universe Mercenary Alliance's veteran craftsman system engraved upon them.
It was said that the price of each of the two divine lords' F-class warships was not a bit inferior to the Rongbing Starfield beneath their feet itself!
At this moment, directly in front of the two F-class spaceships, a full several hundred powerhouses stood straight in the vacuum, gazing far ahead.
Among the hundreds of powerhouses, the weakest were renowned domain lord stage-nine figures within the empire. There was no lack of world lords among them, and there were even a full dozen or so world lords with the secret markings of the universe's origin laws engraved between their eyebrows.
One had to know that world lords recognized by the universe's origin laws were big figures with status not to mention in the Rongbing Empire, but even within the Ganwu Universe Country. Yet at this moment, they stood honestly right there, with lowered eyes and very solemn expressions.
They could not help but be thus, because these big figures all clearly knew the reason they had gathered here today.
That was to welcome the most outstanding genius since the founding of their Rongbing Empire!
"The First Prince must have made a name for himself on the Extraterrestrial Battlefield. He has retired and returned, and is actually being welcomed personally by the two divine lord adults. I have never seen such a huge battle array."
"Look over there, World Lord Violent Thunder of the Giant Axe Battle Arena and World Lord Vulkan of the Universe Mercenary Alliance have also come. Incredible, those two are world lords recognized by the origin laws; ordinary world lords are not even put in their eyes by them!"
"I heard from the divine lord that the First Prince received very high praise when retiring from the Extraterrestrial Battlefield, and was certified as a Military Lord-level World Lord. He is a super world lord on the same level as that Time World Lord of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire."
"Who is the Time World Lord?"
"You don't even know this? The Time World Lord of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire is extraordinary. Over three epochs ago, that world lord had a battle record of defeating an Undying Deity head-on!"
"You mean the First Prince can now defeat Undying Deities? A world lord can actually contend against Undying Deities?!"
In the virtual universe, a group of lower-status domain lord and World Master Level powerhouses gathered in secret, exchanging the intelligence they each knew.
To those domain lords and world lords whose lives were restricted to a medium civilization country for the most part, the news regarding Li Che was simply like an Arabian Night, hard to believe.
Yet they also knew that perhaps only such a terrifying figure was qualified to make the two Undying Deities and over twenty world lords recognized by the universe's origin laws attach such importance.
"They're coming!"
Just as a group of domain lords and world lords were whispering to each other, they suddenly heard a low soul fluctuation coming from reality, making everyone's spirits perk up.
They immediately concentrated and gazed into the distance, only to see that in the distant starry sky, space suddenly flickered slightly. Following closely, a cosmic spaceship appeared at the edge of everyone's vision.
That was a shuttle-shaped spaceship with a perfectly streamlined appearance. Its entire body presented an incomparably beautiful and soft cyan-gold, and its surface was even engraved with complex and obscure secret markings of the laws of space, making many world lords with a rudimentary grasp of the laws of space feel dizzy.
"A cosmic spaceship forged from Wind-Quelling Gold Marrow, truly worthy of the World Master of Guixu..."
Seeing clearly the appearance of the cyan-gold cosmic spaceship, among the many world lords, a bearded, rough and bold man like a savage muttered to himself, the purple-gold thunder law runes between his eyebrows jumping a few times.
This was World Lord Violent Thunder, one of the high-ranking members of the Giant Axe Battle Arena in the Rongbing Empire, ranking third among the top ten world lord experts of the Rongbing Starfield.
Not far from him, many native domain lords and world lords of the Rongbing Empire hurriedly searched for information on the Wind-Quelling Gold Marrow. Upon learning that it was actually an F6-class high-grade metal, they felt their scalps go numb.
One had to know that even for the two divine lord adults of their empire, the material used for their spaceships was merely F5-class metal.
Under the led procession of the two Undying Deities and the respectful gaze of hundreds of world lord powerhouses, that gorgeous cyan-gold spaceship quickly flew to the front of the imperial fleet. Then the cabin door opened, and a youth around two meters tall walked out from it.
His resolute yet soft facial features, eyes as deep and compelling as black holes, and robust body wearing a lightweight Divine Battle Armor, every movement seemed to comply with the deep-seated fluctuations of the Space Origin Laws.
What most attracted the powerhouses' gazes was the pitch-black yet silver-flecked origin laws imprint between the man's eyebrows, especially those world lords from the five major powers, who trembled all over.
Those dot-like silver lights represented that the man opposite had obtained the recognition of the Space Origin Laws. That was the recognition of the superior origin laws, which was much, much higher in difficulty than obtaining the recognition of the inferior origin laws!
Facing him, it really felt as if one were directly facing a powerful Undying Deity.
"Greetings, First Prince Highness!"
"Greetings, First Prince Highness!"
When the man walked step by step to the front of the imperial fleet, the law power naturally emitted from his body had already made many domain lords and weak world lords hard to endure. Many people bowed deeply, their whole bodies' muscles trembling instinctively as if by reflex.
"Greetings, World Lord!"
As for those world lords with sufficient strength, although they could resist the terrifying pressure on Li Che, they still chose to lower their heads. Even those world lords recognized by the inferior laws bowed, expressing their reverence for the strong.
It was unimaginable that their Rongbing Empire, as a medium civilization country, had actually produced a legendary world lord who obtained military lord certification at the World Master Level.
In this universe, such a powerhouse was even more precious and rare than ordinary Undying Deities.
