……
Lin Hao quietly appeared in the starry sky beyond the eighteen layers of clouds in the Blood Luo World.
This trip to the Blood Luo World was truly incredibly rewarding!
He fused three Blood Crystals to become a 'Blood Warrior', and also gained tens of thousands of Blood Crystals in addition.
This was only because he hadn't thoroughly exploited the area, leaving more Blood Crystals for the massive Holy Maiden Order.
The reason for only fusing three was not because I couldn't withstand the impact of willpower, but because my body had reached its limit.
To fuse more Blood Crystals, one must improve the basic genetic level of their body.
As for the effect of the evil energy on him, it's unclear whether it's due to the existence of the simulator, but it's better than nothing.
Before leaving, he also visited the vortex of malevolent energy in the ruins of the ancient god, but unfortunately it was not related to the law of water-air fusion, so he did not spend time trying to study it.
As for the sorrow of parting, there really wasn't.
Anyway, he can activate the [Space Management Master] whenever he wants to see someone.
Although few individuals truly poured their hearts into the vast Holy Maidens Group of the Blood Luo World, Ye Lan and Luo Li were all his women.
I won't treat them badly in the future.
For now, let's stay in the Blood Luo world.
Lin Hao calmed his slightly nervous and excited feelings, took out the spaceship, and flew towards the 'Sky Eclipse Palace'.
In the void outside the Blood Luo Continent, lies the Heavenly Eclipse Palace.
"drop!"
With a soft click, Lin Hao's spaceship's communication was connected to a special signal source.
Immediately, a gentle voice rang out: "Your Highness Lin Hao, it's a pleasure to meet you. I am 'Merlock,' the guide from the Heavenly Eclipse Palace. Congratulations on your successful completion of your trials in the Blood Luo World and your safe return."
As soon as he finished speaking, a jet-black triangular spaceship, about 800 meters in diameter, gracefully emerged from the towering Sky Eclipse Palace, quickly approached, and began to guide Lin Hao's spaceship.
Guided by Merlock, Lin Hao arrived at an extremely magnificent hall on the first floor of the Heavenly Eclipse Palace.
The interior space of the palace is so vast that it could accommodate a small planet.
"Your Highness is truly amazing."
The world lord Merlock, dressed in silver battle armor, walked to the side to lead the way, saying, "Less than three years! Since I took charge of the Heavenly Eclipse Palace, I have never seen a genius who can complete a mission so quickly and perfectly in the Blood Luo World."
As he led the way, he carefully examined Lin Hao, but a barely perceptible unnatural glint flickered deep in his eyes, as if he were suppressing some kind of shock.
"The mission is complete, so there's no need to stay any longer."
Lin Hao responded calmly.
"A Blood Warrior quest?! Incredible! Truly incredible!"
Merlock's smile widened, but it was slightly stiff. "Your Highness, you may not know this, but I have received countless top geniuses from Virtual Universe Company, Giant Axe Arena, and the Cosmic Mercenary Alliance here. But those who can seize the title of 'Blood Warrior' in the Blood Luo World are extremely rare! Your Highness is truly a dragon among men!"
Although the praise was flowery, Lin Hao keenly sensed the insincerity in the other person's words.
He didn't point it out, but just nodded slightly and said no more.
Merlock wisely kept quiet.
The two appeared to be strolling leisurely, but in reality, they were moving extremely fast.
The distance of thousands of kilometers within the palace was traversed in just a few minutes, and a huge staircase leading to the second floor of the Heavenly Eclipse Palace suddenly appeared ahead.
Looking up, the staircase is so magnificent it takes your breath away!
Each step is hundreds of meters high, more than ten kilometers long, and five kilometers wide, with a material as clear and crystal clear as glass.
The staircase spirals upwards, with thousands of steps stacked upon each other, seemingly leading straight to the end of the sky.
The two transformed into streaks of light and sped upwards along the heavenly staircase.
Just as they reached the second level and were about to transfer to the Virtual Universe Company's spaceship to leave, Merlock stopped in his tracks, his expression suddenly turning solemn, even showing a hint of awe: "Your Highness, please wait! I just received a decree from the Palace Master, asking you to come with me. The Palace Master... wishes to see you."
Lin Hao's eyes flickered slightly, and he thought to himself, 'Just as I thought. Why would my teacher send a special message to remind me if it weren't something important…'
Merlock led him through the heavily guarded area, and before the passage leading to the deeper levels on the second floor, a burly figure over three meters tall stood like a rock.
This man had wild, unruly hair and carried a giant axe that exuded endless killing intent. His imposing body naturally emanated a heart-palpitating sense of oppression, and his aura was so powerful that it was several times more terrifying than Lin Hao's 'Thirteenth Senior Brother'!
"Meet the Immortal!"
Merlock bowed instantly, his head almost touching his knees, his tone extremely respectful.
The burly man carrying the giant axe fixed his gaze on Lin Hao with lightning speed: "Lin Hao, the Palace Master wants to see you. Come with me!"
Before he finished speaking, Lin Hao felt a vast and irresistible gentle force lift him up out of thin air.
The burly man took a step forward, carrying Lin Hao and transforming into a stream of light that tore through space, flying straight towards the highest level of the Heavenly Eclipse Palace—the ninth level!
Layer after layer.
Each floor of the Eclipse Palace is a self-contained world, vast and lofty.
But in the face of that imposing and immortal being, the scale of space seemed to be compressed.
In the blink of an eye, Lin Hao had been brought to the ninth floor.
The ninth-floor main hall is completely different from the previous eight floors!
There are no more divisions or partitions; before you lies an unimaginably vast space!
Its length, width, and height are all measured in tens of thousands of kilometers! Enough to easily contain a planet like Earth!
Lin Hao's gaze instantly fell on the figure with his back to him in the distance—the Palace Master of the Heavenly Eclipse Palace!
The surface of his silver robe seemed to ripple with countless illusions, and mysterious golden threads could be vaguely seen flowing on it.
Upon closer inspection, however, it remains an elegant silver color.
It is both real and illusory, captivating the mind and difficult to see through!
His long, reddish-brown hair was loose as he gazed silently at the deep, boundless void outside the Heavenly Eclipse Palace, as if he had become one with the world.
"Palace Master!"
The burly, strong man with the immortal giant axe bowed in respect.
A remarkably clear and calm voice rang out, like the wind rustling through a bamboo forest, carrying a soothing power: "Go."
"Yes!"
The giant axe, immortal and swift, vanished in an instant, transforming into a streak of light.
A flash of light appeared at the passageway, and the seal was reactivated, isolating the inside from the outside.
The Palace Master of the Heavenly Eclipse Palace slowly turned around!
Long, reddish-brown hair, translucent skin, black eyes... and a mysterious vertical mark between her brows.
They look almost identical to Earthlings, yet they give you the feeling of facing an endless starry sky!
Even the most imposing physique appears as insignificant as dust before him.
"Lin Hao, you're very good."
The voice rang out simultaneously in Lin Hao's mind and ears.
"Lin Hao pays his respects to the Palace Master."
Lin Hao bowed, neither humble nor arrogant.
"His will is also quite strong."
The Palace Master of the Heavenly Eclipse Palace nodded slightly, a simple gesture that seemed to resonate throughout the entire hall.
"This year's Genius Battle is a rare grand event for our human race, which has lasted for billions of years, and you are the most dazzling star among them."
Lin Hao listened quietly without saying a word.
"Before you stepped into the Blood Luo World, your teacher, the Lord of Chaos City, sent me a message asking me to take care of you."
The Palace Master of the Heavenly Eclipse Palace seemed to curl into a barely perceptible smile, his eyes scrutinizing her. "I never expected... you little rascal to be so cunning, pulling off something big! You gave me this 'surprise'!"
Seeing Lin Hao's "I knew I couldn't hide it from the big boss" expression, the Heavenly Eclipse Palace Master laughed out loud: "Looks like you knew what was going on? Hahaha! A mere universe-level being, yet you dare to plot against the 'power of faith'? Tsk tsk, since I took charge of the Blood Luo World, this is the first time I've seen such a reckless and ambitious brat! What's even more remarkable is... you actually succeeded!"
Lin Hao awkwardly touched his nose: "Luckily, luckily..."
I was secretly relieved that this big shot was obviously only focused on the big picture and didn't dabble in my private life.
Strictly speaking,
The Palace Master of the Heavenly Eclipse Palace suppressed his smile, his tone tinged with amusement, "The entire Blood Luo Continent, and even the Immortal Temple, are all considered the 'property' of my Virtual Universe Company. However... considering you're new here and unaware of the inside story, I won't confiscate your gains."
"Huh? It's...it's company property?"
Lin Hao convincingly displayed an expression of extreme shock, his acting slightly exaggerated but full of sincerity.
"how?"
The Palace Master of the Heavenly Eclipse Palace raised an eyebrow and said sarcastically, "Do you really think that the meager abilities of the natives of the Blood Luo Continent can stop my Virtual Universe Company? After keeping them locked in this 'cage' for billions of epochs, do you think... how many tough nuts are left to crack?"
Yes, with the limited strength of the Blood Continent, it's like a small fish in a fishbowl compared to a behemoth like the Virtual Universe Company.
In that so-called all-out war to suppress the Yellow Heaven Divine Sect, the highest-ranking person to participate was only a king...
It's hard to say whether there are really any Universe Venerables on the Blood Luo Continent. If there are, they might be working for a virtual universe company somewhere.
"With the guidance of the Lord of Chaos City, it is inappropriate for me to overstep my bounds."
"but……"
The Palace Master of the Heavenly Eclipse Palace changed the subject, looking deeply at Lin Hao with admiration and expectation in her eyes, "I do see the prototype of the future backbone of the human race in you. Lin Hao, don't disappoint me... and your teacher! Let's forge a good relationship today."
He paused, "The 'Blood Crystals' you obtained are a special kind of 'treasure,' so don't spread them around and cause trouble. I'll keep them for you. As for the Western Continent... don't worry, I'll keep an eye on things secretly and make sure your 'little stall' is safe."
The Palace Master of the Heavenly Eclipse Palace had clearly been following the final showdown between the Yellow Heaven Divine Sect and the Immortal Temple.
Only then did I realize that Lin Hao's most terrifying aspect was not his current combat strength, but his hidden strategic potential that could influence the future of the entire race!
A cosmic-level being, leading a group of domain lords and realm lords as miscellaneous soldiers, was actually able to withstand the encirclement and suppression led by a king-level immortal.
If a different race also produces such a monster, it would be worth it to let him sacrifice his life for a mutual destruction!
How fortunate! This person is a blessing to our human race!
