Chapter 25 The Witch Doctor Bestows the Treasure "Prison Soul Bell"
A battlefield beyond the borders, on the continent of Maple Forest.
Having just killed a mechanical immortal who was not yet immortal, and looted the spoils, Dragonwing King sought a safe area and connected his consciousness to the virtual universe.
"Haha~"
Dragon Wing King laughed loudly, looking down at Ying Shan Long Yun, and said generously, "I already know about Li Yang's apprenticeship to the King. Just say what you need. I just killed a Mechanical Race Immortal and made a small profit of one hundred million Chaos Units."
The Machine Race can be considered easy prey on the battlefields beyond the realm, and at the same time, they are the most terrifying opponents who are easiest to fight against at higher levels.
He was able to kill that Marquis-level Immortal mainly because of good luck. He took advantage of the damage to the opponent's core components, and after relentlessly pursuing and attacking, he burned some of his divine power to kill him.
"Ancestral divine might!" Ying Shanlongyun said respectfully, "Li Yang is about to leave the Qianwu Secret Realm to prepare for training within the Qianwu Universe. I would like to ask for a life-saving trump card for him."
"A life-saving trump card?"
Dragon Wing King nodded slightly, pondering, "After all, he's young; he can't endure arduous cultivation forever. His trump card of survival, plant life, can't be refined, and mechanical puppets are too cumbersome... then let's cultivate an F-grade metal life form for him!"
"Thank you, Ancestor. I will kowtow to you on behalf of Li Yang," Ying Shanlongyun said happily.
An F-class metallic life form is more valuable than an F-class spaceship. Even if he poured all his wealth into it, he might not be able to cultivate a single metallic life form.
Metal lifeforms have extremely strong survival abilities. An F3-level metal lifeform can withstand the material attacks of a high-level immortal god and can also transform into an F-level spaceship to escape quickly.
The cultivation cost is certainly not cheap, no less than that of a 218-main-vine Demon Cloud Vine, requiring at least tens of millions of Mixed Yuan Units to cultivate.
But for Dragon Wing King, a super strongman who had just reached the threshold of the Hong Alliance, ten million Hunyuan units were not much; the value of a Marquis was usually around one hundred million.
The value of a Marquis at the peak can be roughly ten times that of a Marquis. The Dragon Wing King has lived for hundreds of thousands of epochs, and his net worth is comparable to that of a slightly lesser Marquis!
"Go back and wait for my news. Once it's ready, someone will send it to Qiongyu Star."
"Yes!" Ying Shanlongyun respectfully withdrew.
The Dragon Wing King above the main hall shifted his gaze, "Cultivating metallic life... Perfect timing to return to War Base 022 and sell the spoils."
........
More than a month later.
In the dark universe, a dark red F-class spaceship swiftly traverses a colorful world. After a brief stop on Qiongyu Star, it sets off again.
"An immortal-level metallic life form, equipped with intelligent life; it doesn't need to recognize a master, which is really great for survival!"
Li Yang gently stroked the wrist guard, which appeared to be a silver metal arm guard, but was actually an immortal-level metal life form that could transform into a palace or spaceship at any time to protect its master.
Most importantly, it does not require a master; it acts like an intelligent life form, assisting its owner.
Indeed, the intelligent life form 'Vis' transformed into a gentle woman and reported, "Your Highness, you are expected to arrive at your destination, the 'Pancas' star ring, in four hours."
The intelligent life form, Viss, also listed the environmental and hazard assessments of the Pancas ring.
The Pancas rings are a lifeless expanse of space, surrounded by countless depleted planets within thousands of light-years of each other.
The last time the aura of an immortal god appeared was before the 1093rd era. On average, a realm lord-level aura appears once every 32 eras. The danger level is judged as 'C+', and there is a high possibility that a cosmic-level space pirate or bandit will appear.
A ruthless bandit of cosmic caliber?
Li Yang's lips curled up. On the spaceship were the God General Thirteen—an immortal deity comparable to a marquis—and the legendary Realm Lord Luo, also comparable to an immortal.
In addition, the spaceship's lower compartment also housed a full-strength 89th Army unit as an escort.
The entire army has one Immortal Army Master, ten World Master-level Generals, one hundred Domain Master-level Captains, and one hundred cosmic-level Warriors.
Such a formidable lineup is enough to easily overwhelm a mid-level civilization empire.
"That treasure bestowed by Master Qianwu... can actually temper one's will; its price is probably comparable to a priceless treasure!"
Li Yang's consciousness focused on the world within his body.
A 'Hell Soul Bell' exuding an evil aura hovered above the Time Giant's head, chiming once every hour.
That voice was captivating, and had the power to temper the soul and will.
According to Master Qianwu, this item comes from the distant territory of the Prison Clan, so it exudes an evil aura. If one is not careful, it can cause the souls and wills below the Immortal level to collapse.
Fortunately, the ruler of Qianwu Kingdom set up three layers of restrictions, and Li Yang cannot even open the first layer. He can only use the most basic bell sound to temper his willpower.
"The teacher said that only an immortal soul and will can unlock the first layer of restrictions, the second layer requires the title of Marquis, and the third layer requires the soul and will to be granted the title of King."
Li Yang gently shook his head.
Strengthening one's will is not something that can be achieved overnight; it requires a great deal of time to cultivate.
Let's go to the simulator and relax for a while.
His eyes shone brightly as he used 1 Mixed Yuan Unit to exchange for 10 years of simulation time, preparing to repeat the simulation of the timeline of the last ten years.
Investigate the dangers of that dilapidated secret realm, and incidentally use the Soul Bell to enhance your soul's will.
There's no rush to comprehend the laws; there are still decades until the Genius Battle. Currently, there are three known ways to make money quickly.
A ruined divine kingdom, a world of thunder, and the ruins of Earth.
In reality, Li Yang doesn't intend to take Earth's resources; developing the first two paths would be enough to create several thousand Hunyuan units.
Even if we break through to the cosmic level in the simulator, it would be enough to simulate thousands of years.
"Start simulation!" Li Yang thought to himself and closed his eyes.
[Simulation duration: 10 years]
In your first year, you arrive in the Pancas rings and begin your search for the material planet.
According to Thor's information, there are no stars around that material planet, thus eliminating tens of millions of material planets. There are 148 million material planets that match the target.
[You described the characteristics of that material planet, and the 89th Army, with tens of thousands of soldiers, was dispatched to search for it.]
The following year, a domain lord captain from the 89th Army discovered the material planet.
When you arrive, you discover that the material planet is indeed as Thor described, except...
A gang of ruthless, cosmic-level bandits is also stationed on the planet, mining the core minerals left behind.
Seeing such a formidable force, the pirate squad offered no resistance and surrendered immediately.
[The bandit leader tells you a secret: there's a cave inside the mine, and no one who goes in has ever come out. He's hiding a treasure, which is why he's chosen to stay on this materialistic planet. Mining is just a smokescreen.]
[You know, that cave is probably the entrance to the divine kingdom, so I immediately ordered the bandit squad to go in and scout ahead.]
[One cosmic-level being and dozens of celestial-level beings were forced by you to reluctantly enter the cave.]
[After going in, they indeed never came out again!]
[The thirteenth general, a man of great experience, tells you that this is likely a dilapidated divine kingdom. The cave is the entrance, but there's a turbulent area between the entrance and the interior of the kingdom, requiring at least a realm lord to traverse.]
You ordered the entire army to launch an attack and enter the caves to explore that dilapidated divine kingdom!
