Zhen Yan's eyes lit up.
"How about we go together?"
Xingchen readily agreed: "Great! We can exchange cultivation tips on the way."
The group boarded the Starship and headed towards Base 24.
Inside the cabin, Xingchen and Zhenyan sat facing each other, chatting about their experiences over the past thousand years.
"So, you're already capable of killing a Marquis-level Immortal?"
Zhen Yan was shocked after hearing Xing Chen's story.
Xingchen smiled modestly: "It's just some special methods. But you, as a realm lord, withstood two immortals head-on. That's real skill."
Zhen Yan shook his head: "My strength is nothing compared to yours. However..."
A glint of fighting spirit flashed in his eyes.
"Once we both break through to immortality, we must have a good fight!"
"A word is settled!"
Xingchen laughed, but in his heart he was thinking, "Wait until I break through to immortality before you fight me. You're just asking for trouble."
He's not bragging, but at his current pace, once he breaks through to immortality, with his divine body, even if a cosmic venerable comes, he'll dare to challenge even a star!
If we can't beat them, I'll just throw a ball of Star River Water and self-destruct! I'll blow you to bits.
The spaceship sailed smoothly in the dark universe. Zhenyan took out a pot of his treasured safflower wine and poured a cup for himself and Xingchen.
"Here, try this."
Zhenyan pushed the wine glass towards Xingchen.
"I spent a lot of money on this wine."
Xingchen took the wine glass and saw that the liquid inside was shimmering with red light. He took a small sip and his eyes lit up: "Good wine! This wine actually contains the power of laws?"
Zhenyan smiled and nodded.
"By the way, I've always been curious, how did you manage to fight against an immortal while being a realm lord?"
Zhen Yan put down his wine glass and smiled mysteriously: "Actually, there's nothing special about it, it's just that I have a deeper understanding of the laws, plus..."
He paused and lowered his voice.
"I have fused with Blood Crystal."
"Blood Crystal?"
Xingchen pretended not to understand.
"do not you know?"
Zhenyan was puzzled.
"Then how did you manage to defeat an immortal?"
He countered with a question to the stars.
In his view, Xingchen must also be one of the five major forces of the human race, and should know about the Blood Crystal.
Moreover, if Star hadn't fused with Blood Crystal, how could it possibly defeat an Immortal?
Chapter 32 Venerable Jin Chen
Xingchen smiled frankly and said, "I am not from one of the five major human powers, so naturally I have never heard of Blood Crystal. The reason I have such combat power is because I possessed a special life form before. That special life form had an extremely high genetic level and also had its own innate secret techniques. After I merged with it, I was able to have my current strength."
"What! You possessed a special life!"
Zhenyan shouted in shock.
He then realized something was wrong and immediately lowered his voice.
"Brother Xingchen, this is an incredible opportunity! The life you possessed has a genetic level many times higher than ours."
"Uh... one... one hundred?"
Xingchen didn't dare to say three thousand directly, so he simply stated the genetic level multiple of his clone.
"One hundred! That's not bad, hahaha."
Zhen Yan suddenly realized, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes: "So that's how it is! Brother Xingchen, with your talent and strength, if you join the Virtual Universe Company, you will definitely receive a wealth of resources for training, and your future achievements will be limitless!"
"Would you like to join Virtual Universe Company? I can introduce you!"
Xingchen paused slightly, and before he could speak, Zhenyan launched into a long explanation of the many benefits of the Virtual Universe Company: "Think about it, the company has countless precious cultivation manuals, all kinds of rare treasures for you to choose from, and top experts to personally guide your cultivation. You can also meet elites from all over the universe and expand your network. Once you join the company, after breaking through to Immortal, becoming a Marquis Immortal is just a small goal, and even becoming a King Immortal is not impossible!"
Xingchen pondered to himself that joining the Virtual Universe Company would indeed bring many benefits and greatly help his cultivation path.
But he also knew that joining a faction meant taking on corresponding responsibilities and obligations.
Seeing Xingchen hesitate, Zhenyan urged, "Brother Xingchen, don't miss this great opportunity! With your strength and talent, you'll definitely receive special training and enjoy many privileges after joining the company."
Xingchen fell into deep thought. He hadn't considered joining the Virtual Universe Company before because he already had his own plans, but now he felt he could reconsider the matter.
Because there are really many benefits to joining.
For example, he really coveted the power of the Blood Crystal.
If he possessed the power of Bloodlust, combined with a miniature universe projection and the Blood Sacrifice: Burning Body Technique, and created his own secret techniques, he would be a match for even a King!
This is the advantage of having a powerful force.
Various precious resources generally circulate only within those major powers, and cannot be purchased by outsiders.
Make a quick decision in your mind.
"Okay! I'll join!"
In the end, Xingchen decided to join. With Zhenyan's recommendation, the difficulty of joining would be greatly reduced.
Or rather, it should be a done deal!
Zhen Yan gulped down the wine in his glass.
"Haha, okay, I'll contact my mentor right away, and you'll be able to join the company immediately."
Xingchen was taken aback. Zhenyan's master? It wasn't mentioned in the original story. Could it be that he died later?
……
Chaos City.
In the central area of the city, inside a magnificent palace entirely cast from dark gold metal.
Venerable Jin Chen was sitting cross-legged in the cultivation room, surrounded by 108 golden streams of light, each containing heart-pounding fluctuations of law.
"Ok?"
Venerable Jin Chen suddenly opened his eyes, and golden lightning seemed to flash in them.
He received an urgent communication request from his disciple, Zhenyan.
"What's that kid up to now..."
With a wave of his hand, a golden light screen unfolded in front of him. Zhen Yan's monkey face appeared within the light screen.
"what's up?"
"Master! Your disciple has discovered an unparalleled genius!"
Venerable Jin Chen raised an eyebrow slightly, his fingers tapping lightly on his knee. He knew his disciple all too well; anyone who could excite Zhen Yan like this was no ordinary person.
"Oh? Tell me in detail."
As Zhenyan narrated, Venerable Jinchen's originally lazy sitting posture gradually became upright.
Upon hearing the phrase "possessing a special life form," his eyes flashed with golden light, and the 108 golden streams of light floating around him paused for a moment.
"A hundredfold increase in genetic level?"
Venerable Jin Chen's voice remained steady, but his fingers had unconsciously tightened their grip on the armrests of his chair.
"Let him demonstrate his divine form."
Zhen Yan shook his head.
"Teacher, he's only a realm lord now, where did he get a divine body?"
Venerable Jin Chen was taken aback. A realm lord?
"Then let me see him."
Within the light screen, Xingchen's figure appeared. Starlight swirled around him, and countless specks of stardust could be faintly seen flowing beneath his skin.
"Greetings, Venerable One."
Xingchen bowed respectfully.
Venerable Jin Chen nodded, and then he looked at it carefully.
"This is……"
"Star Sand Clan? No, they're more like some kind of special life form nurtured in a secret cosmic realm..."
As a cosmic sovereign, he had seen countless extraordinary life forms, but the physical characteristics displayed by the stars still surprised him.
Like stardust.
“Retrieve his military merit records.”
With a thought, Venerable Jin Chen unfurled another virtual light screen before him. When he saw the system's evaluation of Xing Chen's combat strength, a hint of surprise finally appeared on his usually impassive face.
"World Lord level, Marquis-level combat power?"
His slender fingers gently traced across the light screen, bringing up nearly a thousand years of battle records from the stars. The more he looked, the more astonished he became—2 World Lords and hundreds of Immortals had been killed, including 12 Marquises!
"interesting……"
Venerable Jin Chen stood up, his dark gold robe fluttering even without wind. He walked to the window, gazing at the unchanging chaotic energy within Chaos City, and fell into deep thought.
As a high-ranking executive at the Virtual Universe Company, he knew all too well what such a genius meant. If properly nurtured, he could very well become another immortal king, or even… reach the same level as him!
"Chaos City..."
