Several months later.
Cold Star Empire, Imperial Capital Star.
His gaze swept across the outer space of the Imperial Capital Star.
E9-class... E1 level... D9-class...
As you can see, countless spaceships are neatly arranged according to their class.
In front of the E9-class spaceship were several powerful ships whose exteriors were covered with Law Secret Patterns.
This is clearly an F-class spaceship that only Undying God can possess.
Standing directly in front of these spaceships were six powerful figures with auras as deep as the abyss.
Under their leadership, hundreds of people stood in a vacuum, seemingly waiting for some important figure.
Among the six powerful figures, the silver-haired man wearing Azure Battle Armor was none other than the ruler of the Cold Star Empire, the God Lord Cold Star.
The other five are the branch managers of the five major powers in the Cold Star Empire.
As the strongest beings in a mid-level cosmic civilization, they are all Undying God.
Behind them were hundreds of powerful figures from various factions within the Cold Star Empire.
The weakest among these people is at least Domain Lord Ninth Stage, and there are quite a few World Lord as well, including more than ten World Lord who are recognized by the Origin Law.
Although there are only a few hundred people, they are all high-ranking officials of the Cold Star Empire. If all of them are wiped out, the Cold Star Empire will be no different from being destroyed.
And the only one respectfully waiting in outer space among these powerful figures who could determine the fate of the Cold Star Empire was none other than the newly risen legend of the human race— Zhou Qing, the Space Blade World Lord (the protagonist's title on the Outer Domain Battlefield ).
Soon, with a spatial fluctuation, a massive spaceship appeared in everyone's sight.
"Hiss... It's actually an F9-class spaceship. No wonder it's the Space Blade World Lord."
" F9-class spaceship! Most Undying God don't even have such a precious spaceship."
"Terrifying. I have a feeling that if the weapon systems on this were activated, they could destroy the Imperial Capital Star in an instant."
Upon discovering Zhou Qing's spaceship, the powerful figures of the Cold Star Empire immediately went to the Virtual Universe to investigate, and then came to a conclusion that left them speechless—it was actually an F9-class spaceship.
The six Undying were also filled with amazement upon seeing the spaceship before them.
As expected of a legendary genius who shocked the entire human race, a single spaceship is worth hundreds of times their net worth.
"Greetings, Space Blade World Lord!"
A moment later, as soon as Zhou Qing left the spaceship, the many powerful figures of the Cold Star Empire immediately became respectful.
" Zhou Qing, you've made a name for yourself over the years; it's truly astounding."
The God Lord Cold Star looked at Zhou Qing with a joyful expression.
When Zhou Qing first ventured out to fight on the Outer Domain Battlefield, he had worried about his safety.
But not several thousand years later, he heard that Zhou Qing had acquired strength comparable to Undying, and later even killed several Undying.
When Zhou Qing later entered the Initial Universe and became famous throughout the human race, he found it even more incredible.
You see, he knew better than anyone that Zhou Qing was just a human born in the Divine Kingdom.
"Why must the God Lord make such a fuss?"
Zhou Qing chuckled softly.
"Your current position is now of high rank, and the empire naturally cannot treat you lightly."
Upon hearing this, the God Lord Cold Star shook his head.
After the God Lord Cold Star, the heads of the five major human forces' branches in the Cold Star Empire also exchanged pleasantries with Zhou Qing.
"Your Excellency, Space Blade World Lord, I am Lokes, the head of the Cold Star Empire branch of the Giant Axe Martial Arena. Welcome back."
The Undying in the Giant Axe Martial Arena was an Ape-man Race. When he saw Zhou Qing, his face was full of smiles.
"As Giant Axe Warrior born from our Cold Star branch, we, the Cold Star branch, will always be proud of your existence."
To improve Zhou Qing's favor, Lokes brought up the old story of Zhou Qing becoming Domain Lord Level Giant Axe Warrior.
"Your Excellency, Space Blade World Lord, I am Saluo, the head of the Cold Star Empire branch of the Virtual Universe Company. Welcome back."
The Undying of the Virtual Universe Company was even more enthusiastic when faced with a genius from his own clan.
Next, the Undying from the Universe Galaxy Bank, the Universe First Bank, and the Universe Mercenary Alliance were also exceptionally enthusiastic towards Zhou Qing.
This is actually quite normal.
Because he had passed the twentieth level of the Heavenly Bridge in less than 100,000 years of cultivation, Zhou Qing already had the title of a genius rarely seen in tens of millions of eras within the human race.
In their view, if Zhou Qing were to break through to the Undying, he would at least be at the Peak King.
The heads of the five major powers' branches in the Cold Star Empire are just ordinary Undying, and by then they may not even be able to meet Zhou Qing.
Therefore, for them, befriending Zhou Qing Zhou Qing before his breakthrough would bring them immense benefits, as long as he still remembered them after his breakthrough.
After finishing his conversation with several Undying, Zhou Qing ignored the remaining World Lord and instead led out a Domain Lord from the back of the crowd.
"Mr. Scott, it's been a long time."
Looking at the elderly man with light green skin in front of him, Zhou Qing sighed.
In the early stages of the simulation, if he hadn't been taken in as a disciple by Scott, the Domain Lord, his situation would likely have been much more difficult.
" Space Blade World Lord, it's been a long time."
Scott was somewhat flattered to be singled out by Zhou Qing.
"I never expected that Space Blade World Lord would still remember me."
Taking Zhou Qing as his disciple was arguably the greatest opportunity of Scott's life.
Before meeting Zhou Qing, his cultivation was extremely difficult, taking tens of thousands of years to advance from the Domain Lord First Stage to the Domain Lord Third Stage.
However, after he became Zhou Qing's teacher, he gained access to a large amount of resources from the Cold Star Empire as Zhou Qing rose to power.
With the help of these resources, he cultivated to the Domain Lord Ninth Stage in just a few thousand years.
"Teacher, is it because your Law Comprehension Lightning is insufficient that you haven't broken through to the World Lord yet?"
Zhou Qing asked Scott with a smile.
" Space Blade World Lord, you flatter me. I am truly dull-witted and have never been able to grasp the Lightning Origin Law."
Scott couldn't help but sneer at Zhou Qing's question.
"Hmm..." Zhou Qing thought for a moment, then asked the God Lord Cold Star, " God Lord, does the Spirit-Devouring Universe Country recently hold an auction for the qualification of Domain Lord to travel to the Initial Universe?"
"There will be a competition in three years." After hearing this, the God Lord Cold Star first checked in the Virtual Universe before replying.
" Space Blade World Lord, there's no need for such trouble."
At this moment, Undying Saluo from the Virtual Universe Cold Star Empire branch hurriedly spoke up.
"It's just a Domain Lord position. If your teacher needs one, I can reserve one for him directly."
"Wouldn't that be too much trouble?" Zhou Qing asked with a smile.
"It is my honor to serve Space Blade World Lord."
Saluo replied immediately.
Zhou Qing nodded slightly upon hearing this and said nothing more.
The strong are meant to enjoy certain privileges.
Scott was overjoyed upon hearing Zhou Qing and Saluo's conversation.
According to his understanding, a spot for Domain Lord to travel to the Initial Universe would cost at least trillions of Universe Coin.
Such enormous expenses would be impossible for him to accumulate even at the end of his life.
But Zhou Qing solved it for him with just a few words.
"Thank you very much, Space Blade World Lord." He immediately thanked Zhou Qing.
"Teacher, you're welcome. It's nothing at all."
Zhou Qing appeared completely nonchalant.
Upon seeing this, Scott couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
Taking Zhou Qing as his disciple was truly the best decision he ever made in his life.
