"It's time to leave!"
Sitting in the hall, Zhang Junbao sent emails to several familiar people, including Luo Feng, Hong, Thunder God, and Bolan, informing them of his upcoming trip to the Outer Domain Battlefield.
Luo Feng had also completed his Domain Lord Level training mission and arrived in Chaos City. Unfortunately, he was still in seclusion, so Zhang Junbao did not choose to disturb him.
The path of the strong must be walked alone. It is not easy for them to support each other along the way, but everyone has their own path of cultivation. There is no need for these grown men to stick together all the time.
Zhang Junbao dialed Hong's number, and when the screen opened, two people appeared on the screen.
"Hong, you've brought Ji Qing to the Giant Axe Arena too!" Zhang Junbao teased, seeing the two people in front of him.
"Haha, I cultivate the path of Heart Tempering in the Mortal World. Emotions are a special power that all living beings possess, so naturally there's nothing to be ashamed of."
"Besides, with Ji Qing by my side, we can discuss the problems we encounter in cultivation together," Hong said with a smile.
Ji Qing, standing to the side, also appeared poised and confident, though she couldn't hide the smile on her face.
"The so-called Daoist couple, your companionship on the path of cultivation is truly a beautiful story." Zhang Junbao was also happy for Hong. This relationship was something Hong revealed after Zhang Junbao and the others prepared to thank the powerful figures who had supported them after the Earth incident was resolved.
"Speaking of which, we have to thank Yanzhu King. If it weren't for him, Ji Qing's teacher probably wouldn't have agreed to us being together."
Since Hong became a disciple of the Giant Axe Founder, he also brought Ji Qing, the woman he had met in the Ganwu Universe Country, to the Giant Axe Arena.
"When the Yanzhu King invaded Earth, I could only fight desperately in Chaos City. For my sake, Ji Qing even risked being expelled from her sect to ask her teacher, the Phantom Spirit King, to help."
Although the Phantom Spirit King was furious that we were in love, he put aside his resentment because of the sincerity of our feelings and prepared to persuade the Yanzhu King to abandon his invasion of Earth.
Although both are King-level Immortal, the Phantom Spirit King's background is not as powerful as the Yanzhu King Yanzhu King for the sake of Hong and Ji Qing. She can only try to persuade the Yanzhu King. After all, they are both King-level Immortal, so perhaps the Yanzhu King can give her some face.
Zhang Junbao's arrival later brought about a huge change in the entire battle. In the end, although the Phantom Spirit King did not make a move, he still received Hong's gratitude.
After the Earth incident, Hong's status soared, and his powerful mental cultivation easily broke through the illusion of love and desire set up by the Phantom Spirit King, proving to the Phantom Spirit King that his feelings for Ji Qing were real. Naturally, she had no reason to stop Ji Qing and Hong from being together.
As for Ji Qing giving up love for cultivation, don't be ridiculous. Hong is the greatest opportunity on her path of cultivation. Dharma, wealth, companion, and land—although Ji Qing is a genius, she wouldn't be foolish enough to give up such an opportunity and insist on going out on her own.
Moreover, their relationship, having been tested by the Earth events, has entered a new phase. A relationship forged through shared hardships is not something one can easily give up.
"Although the Yanzhu King wasn't very good at doing things, he did bring about some changes to Earth. As the saying goes, fortune and misfortune are intertwined," Zhang Junbao said.
"I've come to tell you that I've reached the World Lord Level and, after completing my training mission, I'm preparing to head to the Outer Domain Battlefield."
"What? You're already World Lord? I know about the Outer Domain Battlefield; it's a place where countless Alien Race exist, a truly brutal battle between races!"
"That's also where the truly strong gather. We've always heard that humans and Alien Race races are irreconcilable enemies, but how many Alien Race have we actually seen so far?"
If we venture into the universe and only hide within Human Territory, burying ourselves in diligent cultivation, wouldn't we be like turtles hiding in their shells?
Since we're going to venture out, we should naturally go to places inhabited by Alien Race to hone our skills. And if we have the chance in the future, it wouldn't be a bad idea to travel to the territories of Alien Race!
We should be carefree and unrestrained; how can we be timid and hesitant?
"Well said. So what if Alien Race? As cultivators, if we don't even dare to fight Alien Race, how can we roam the vast universe?"
I will also redouble my efforts in cultivation to become World Lord as soon as possible. Then, perhaps we can fight together on the Outer Domain Battlefield.
Hong felt no worry, but rather a deep longing. He knew that Zhang Junbao was fearless and would not be intimidated by mere Alien Race tribes.
"I'm waiting for that day to come!"
" Luo Feng and Thunder God are both in seclusion, so I won't disturb them. I left them an email, and we'll meet again when I return from the Outer Domain Battlefield!"
After bidding farewell to Hong, Zhang Junbao met with Venerable Guiyi.
Things on Earth have returned to normal, Venerable Guiyi naturally no longer needs to stay on Earth and has returned to Chaos City.
"The training missions of your clan are not very dangerous for you, but the Outer Domain Battlefield are ever-changing, and the Alien Race are extremely cunning. Do not let your guard down just because you are talented."
What's abundant there is genius.
All races that enter the Outer Domain Battlefield have an agreement: except under special circumstances, those above the Immortal are forbidden from entering the Outer Domain Battlefield, otherwise they will be surrounded and killed by the powerful members of all races. In other words, I can't enter the Outer Domain Battlefield either. There, you'll have to rely on yourself.
"I understand, this is also a learning experience for me."
"Your mindset is exceptionally refined; you clearly understand these principles, so I won't say more. Keep this safe." As he spoke, Venerable Guiyi flicked out a Space Ring. "This is a gift from your teacher!"
"Given by the teacher? What is this?" Zhang Junbao asked curiously. He hadn't given it to the Chaos City Lord when he met him before, but had asked Venerable Guiyi to give it to him.
"This item is called the Demon Soul Silkworm Cocoon. It is woven by a Special Lifeform that only exists in the Endless Land of Death universe. The Demon Soul Silkworm has been nurtured for millions of epochs and possesses powerful protective capabilities."
"After refining, it can be integrated into the soul, and the Demon Soul Silkworm Cocoon will then attach itself to the soul. It can withstand Soul Attack from Universe Overlord level, and its value is comparable to a high-grade Heavy Treasure!" Venerable Guiyi said with a smile.
Zhang Junbao was also shocked. A soul defense treasure comparable to a high-level Heavy Treasure, although it was a one-time use item, was still extremely precious. Those who could be called Universe Overlord were powerhouses at the level of the Venerable Guiyi. They possessed the strongest combat power below the Universe Master, and some powerful Universe Overlord could even compete with weaker Universe Master.
Soul Attack at the level of Universe Overlord would generally annihilate anyone below the King Rank as long as it touched their soul. Even King-level Immortal would be completely wiped out. As for those King-level Immortal who possess soul defense Heavy Treasure, they are able to survive.
The Demon Soul Silkworm Cocoon before me was woven from incredibly fine golden threads, its surface radiating a faint golden light, like a layer of misty fog, making it utterly captivating.
The Special Lifeform in the Endless Land of Death of the universe were able to give birth to such a wondrous treasure.
After thanking Venerable Guiyi, Zhang Junbao did not hesitate and immediately began refining it. His soul seemed to be dressed in a golden veil, which did not affect the performance of his Spiritual Force.
Although only the strongest King-level Immortal can enter the Outer Domain Battlefield, it is hard to guarantee that powerful Alien Race races will launch a combined attack.
If one were to encounter Zerg King Rank, a combined attack from a million-strong Zerg Legion Immortal Zerg could even unleash power at the Universe Venerable level, so one must be wary.
"Senior brother, I'm about to venture out into the world. Don't you have any gifts for me?" Having merged with the Demon Soul Silkworm Cocoon, Zhang Junbao looked at Venerable Guiyi with a smile.
"Hey, with Earth's current profits, in a few more eras your wealth might surpass mine, yet you're still coveting my little things."
"Very well, your Void Whale Spaceship is the one I used before, but the detectors on it are now outdated. I'll give you two sets of top-tier detectors instead."
A precise, close-range detector capable of detecting even a mosquito within a million kilometers.
Another is an ultra-long-range detector that can detect signs of life within a radius of one billion kilometers.
In Outer Domain Battlefield, discovering the enemy before others means having the advantage of striking first. Whether to fight or flee is entirely up to one's own will.
Venerable Guiyi then presented Zhang Junbao with another Space Ring.
"Thank you, Senior Brother!" Although the gift from Venerable Guiyi was not as precious as that from the Chaos City Lord, it was extremely practical. Zhang Junbao had originally planned to buy it himself, but since Venerable Guiyi had already prepared it for him, it saved him the trouble.
"The path to becoming a strong person is paved with corpses. Without the trials of mountains of corpses and seas of blood, it is absolutely impossible to become a super strong person!"
I'm giving you this treasure so you can survive in the Outer Domain Battlefield, but with the rise of the strong, bloody battles are absolutely inevitable.
"I understand. The war between Human Race and Alien Race is a war for the survival of the race, and there is absolutely no room for hesitation."
"It's good that you know, but now that you've crossed the Primal Heavenly Bridge the Domain Lord Level, your name is definitely on the Alien Race race's list of geniuses to be hunted, and you might even be at the top of that list."
The Alien Race race Undying its desire to destroy our Human Race, and will definitely send powerful warriors to assassinate you. Although the company has done its best to screen, Soul Slave are difficult to identify, so you must be careful.
"Back on Viska Star, I encountered an Alien Race attack and was prepared. This time, after a period of rigorous training, I will return and unleash my full power, achieving Immortal and annihilating the King Rank!"
"Hahaha, what ambition! How could we, the Virtual Universe Company, be threatened by mere Alien Race?"
kill!
Anyone who dares to offend my Human Race will be killed without mercy!
A hint of killing intent flashed in Venerable Guiyi's eyes. Zhang Junbao immediately felt the terrifying killing intent emanating from the Universe Overlord. Even a slight glimpse of it made him tremble slightly.
"While survival is the top priority, we cannot be timid and hesitant. When necessary, we must use swift and decisive measures to deter the enemy!"
"Anyone who violates this rule will be killed with a single stroke of the sword!"
Zhang Junbao nodded emphatically and then left.
Back at Heaven-Questioning Residence, the supplies we had purchased earlier had already been delivered.
Three days later!
"Master, an email has arrived from company headquarters; the mission is about to begin."
Upon receiving the email, Zhang Junbao tidied up his things.
He had Feitian install the detector given to him by Venerable Guiyi on the Void Whale Spaceship, and also purchased a large amount of high-level materials for the Extreme Yang Clone.
The Extreme Yang Clone is Special Lifeform in the universe, belonging to the Battle Armor Clan. It possesses two Innate Secret Technique: one is ' Armor Transformation,' which transforms into armor and attaches itself to others, maximizing defensive capabilities; the other is ' Treasure Devouring,' which allows it to devour various treasures in the universe to enhance its own strength.
Originally, within Chaos City Virtual Universe Company could deliver goods quickly to your door, which was very convenient.
Heading to the Outer Domain Battlefield also meant no supplies, so Zhang Junbao naturally needed to stockpile a large amount of high-level materials for his Extreme Yang Clone to absorb and enhance its strength.
Fortunately, the Extreme Yang Clone is not picky about its food. It can absorb metal, other treasures of the Law, and even some remains of life, making it more convenient than the Zerg Mother Emperor in nurturing Zerg Warrior.
Zhang Junbao would naturally not allow his Clone to absorb such disgusting things as the corpses of the Zerg. Moreover, absorbing the corpses of the Zerg was to save money. A more extravagant approach would be to purchase a large amount of precious materials containing the aura of Law.
It contains a wide variety of G-class metals, unique plant life forms, and precious gems.
These materials alone cost Zhang Junbao billions of Hunyuan Unit. However, the effect was extremely obvious. With the use of the Armor Transformation Secret Technique, the Extreme Yang Clone's defensive power was comparable to that of Ordinary Heavy Treasure, and attacks from ordinary Immortal could be almost ignored.
In addition, he purchased a large number of treasures for the evolution of the Cloud-Touching Vine. Although Zhang Junbao no longer needs the Cloud-Touching Vine to transform into defensive armor, it is still difficult for him to stop the enemy if they are determined to escape.
After investing a lot of resources, the Cloud-Touching Vine has been cultivated to have 360 main vines.
The lowest cultivation method for World Lord Level Cloud-Touching Vine is having at least thirty-six main vines. However, the highest cultivation method can have up to 360 main vines, each possessing the combat power of Peak World Lord. This is equivalent to 360 Peak World Lord combined, making its strength extremely terrifying.
Of course, the cost is also quite high.
The most perfect form of the Cloud-Touching Vine is envied by the universe, making it extremely difficult for it to break through to become Immortal. However, once it does break through, it will be comparable to a human Marquis expert, possessing not only perfect vitality but also formidable combat power.
Although Zhang Junbao's Cloud-Touching Vine hasn't been involved in many battles, it has always been nurtured with the highest-level resources, making its potential extremely formidable.
The investment of millions of Hunyuan Unit is nothing more than a drop in the ocean for Zhang Junbao at this point.
Once Zhang Junbao himself reaches the Immortal, he will surely be comparable to King Rank expert. If Cloud-Touching Vine wants to assist him, it must be strong enough.
After finishing everything, Zhang Junbao opened his email, which contained the tasks assigned by the company!
"Due to His Highness Zhang Junbao's special circumstances, the high-level human council has decided that the Highest Points Mission that you, Domain Lord Level, have not yet carried out will be postponed until now."
Because His Highness Zhang Junbao is already at the World Lord Level, the difficulty of the mission has increased; this is a high-scoring, multi-stage mission!
"First mission: The universe is vast and boundless, teeming with countless races. Although our Human Race is one of the six major races, Alien Race Undying given up their desire to destroy us. Many of these Alien Race have attempted to use puppets to infiltrate or secretly control our Human Race, or even directly Soul Enslavement."
Within the Human Territory, in the Youmo Universe Country and the Aragami Star Region, there exists a force called the ' Myriad Aspects Pavilion,' whose ninety-nine World Lord Level elders and one Immortal Army Lord God leader have all been infiltrated by the Zerg.
Furthermore, the ' Myriad Aspects Pavilion ' killed the previous Domain Lord Level prince who was on a mission for the Virtual Universe Company and is now on the run.
Ten days later, they will leave Human Territory completely, carrying with them a great deal of Human Race secrets.
"To hinder the pursuit of the powerful humans, we are preparing to unleash the secret technique ' Blood Demon Sacrifice,' sacrificing the inhabitants of hundreds of surrounding inhabited planets, totaling over a hundred billion people. The sacrifice technique will begin in three days."
"Your Highness Zhang Junbao, for this quest, you must kill all ninety-nine World Lord. As for the Immortal God and the one hundred billion people, you can choose whether to kill or save them."
"Ninety-nine World Lord killed, reward: 99 million points!"
"Slay the Immortal Army Lord, reward: one billion points!"
"Save 100 billion people, reward 1 million points!"
After reading about the Human Race, Zhang Junbao frowned slightly.
"A population of one hundred billion, and only 1 million points? The Virtual Universe Company really doesn't value these people's lives!"
According to the normal Law of planetary life, even among a population of one hundred billion, there might not be a single World Lord Level being.
If calculated in this way, the price offered by Virtual Universe Company is already considered high.
Zhang Junbao simply didn't like this way of judging the value of life based on strength.
Although he had no right to sympathize with them, Zhang Junbao would not mind doing so if it could save some lives.
"However, this ' Myriad Aspects Pavilion ' is quite extraordinary. They actually killed a Domain Lord Level member of the Virtual Universe Company. Domain Lord Level members are usually rigorously screened when performing point-based missions. For an accident to occur under these circumstances can only mean that this organization is extremely well-hidden."
The mission that Domain Lord Level member was carrying out was probably just to kill one of the World Lord in this organization.
"They really think highly of me, huh? The difficulty of the World Lord Level mission has increased; they actually want me to wipe out the entire organization."
The highest score a typical Domain Lord Level can achieve, even after all stages, is only around one million points. Yet Zhang Junbao received such a huge reward after only the first stage.
Moreover, the difficulty of the mission far exceeds that of ordinary Domain Lord missions, and it is likely that it was 'specially' prepared for Zhang Junbao by the human higher-ups.
"However, the ' Youmo Universe Country ' is extremely far from Chaos City, and it will take three days. How am I supposed to get there in time?"
"Master, the company has arranged for an Immortal to have left spatial coordinates in the Youmo Universe Country, which can be directly Divine Kingdom Teleportation!"
"In that case, let's not delay and set off immediately."
Just one hour later, Zhang Junbao returned to his Original Universe and met the Immortal arranged by the Virtual Universe Company.
