The Great Xia Dynasty's Longevity Begins with Connecting to the Swallowed Starry Sky

Chapter 140 Joining the Franchise, and Taking on Another Apprentice

Tiangong City?
This surprised Qin Hao somewhat: "Senior wants to go to Tiangong City?"

Luo nodded and said, "Yes, I've experienced a lot in my second life these past two days. I really admire the name of Heavenly Craft City."

Oh, I forgot to mention, I won't be going myself. I just want to visit it in Second Life. I heard there's an identical Tiangong City in Second Life?

This is true.

Qin Hao updated the Tiangong City in Second Life in real time.

Many of Earth's geniuses have gathered in Tiangong City.

Whether it's for daily life or studies, it can solve the problem.

Luo's plan seems to be to integrate into the Earth's environment.

Qin Hao had just nodded when Luo added, "However, I've discovered that there are quite a few geniuses on your Earth."

Especially that one named Hong.

His very first words almost startled Qin Hao.

However, Qin Hao understood after hearing the second half of the sentence.

Just like in the original story, Luo has taken a liking to Hong.

They have the same talent, and Hong's performance has clearly won over Luo.

Luo may have started planning to take on apprentices.

Qin Hao hesitated, wondering whether to agree to Luo's request.

To be honest, one of the key figures in the region wanted to take Hong as his disciple.

This should be a good thing.

If Hong knew, he would surely be overjoyed.

However, Qin Hao felt that given Hong's current situation, it would be better for him to become a disciple of a realm lord.

I really feel a bit wronged.

Qin Hao felt that if he were included, Hong would still follow the same path as before, following Luo, the realm lord.

Wouldn't that be too...?

Seeing Qin Hao's hesitation, Luo understood what Qin Hao meant.

This is because they think the realm lord is too weak.

Qin Hao is considered a leader of the Earth lineage, and with a genius like Hong under his command, he must have other ideas.

"I have no other intentions, except that I have a collection of secret techniques. Why don't you help me give it to Hong?"

what?
So that’s it?
Qin Hao was a little embarrassed: "That's possible. Please don't blame me, senior. The Battle of the Universe's Top Geniuses is about to begin. There are only a few people from Earth's lineage. I was thinking that if I could get Hong into the top 1,000 in the entire universe, he could enter the core layer of the Virtual Universe Company. At that time, he could go into the Initial Universe. There are great opportunities there."

Luo certainly knew this.

Luo also felt that Hong's talent was indeed quite good.

Judging from his appearance in Second Life, Hong's talent clearly doesn't match the foundation of someone in the top 1,000 of the universe.

If you can break into the top 1,000 in the universe, you're guaranteed a job at least in the Virtual Universe Company, and even enter its core layer.

At that time, becoming an immortal disciple will be the least of your chances.

If one could become a disciple of a venerable master, it doesn't seem to be too difficult.

My status as a peak Realm Lord doesn't seem very impressive.

Even if I break through, I'll only be an ordinary immortal, an immortal military lord.

That is, the level of his good friend Lemonte.

Perhaps it could be better, leading directly to immortality and the title of Marquis?

But if he is granted the title of king, I fear he lacks the necessary foundation.

Thinking about it this way, Qin Hao's hesitation becomes understandable.

Qin Hao didn't stand on ceremony; that was his original plan.

Giving guidance is fine, but directly taking on apprentices is not advisable.

Although the world of Swallowed Star doesn't really value this, it's not uncommon for geniuses to have multiple masters.

However, if one is talented enough, one can become an apprentice of a more powerful master.

Why should one become an apprentice of a realm lord?

I don't accept apprentices, but I can still offer guidance.

Qin Hao thought for a moment and said, "Then, senior, I can set up a separate scene. I wonder if you would be willing to help guide the geniuses of my Earth lineage?"

Luo was taken aback, but after thinking about it, he realized that he had accepted the offerings from the Heavenly Craft Pavilion and had also benefited from them.

Perhaps it's normal to lend a hand?
And he really thought highly of that kid named Hong.

This person should be able to find a way out of the path he couldn't find.

Well, even now, I might still be able to succeed.

But if you can offer some help to the other person during breaks in your practice, that wouldn't be a bad idea either?

"can."

Qin Hao was overjoyed when Luo agreed.

After we send Luo away.

As a worshipper of the Heavenly Crafts Pavilion, Luo is allowed to reside there.

This is also for convenience, so that if the worshipper needs to help, he can act immediately.

Isadora quickly received the news that the Pavilion Master had persuaded a Realm Lord so quickly.

Previously, Tiangong Pavilion could only rely on a name.

The mere mention of the title "Phantom Butterfly King" is enough to deter many people and force many others to back down.

However, the Heavenly Craft Pavilion itself is not very strong.

Isadora was also a little weak.

Now, with the addition of a Realm Lord, the strength of the Heavenly Craft Pavilion can be increased by 99%.

Yes, a single Realm Lord is many times more powerful than the former Heavenly Craft Pavilion.

Ninety-nine percent is just a figurative number.

Isadora immediately replied with a message: "Lord, the items we submitted have all passed the three-star auction of the Cosmic Galaxy Bank. They will be auctioned off at the auction."

Qin Hao nodded, quite satisfied with Isadora's efficiency.

A year later, at the Universe's First Bank's four-star auction, Qin Hao will need a lot of money.

This needs to be counted in mixed units.

Although the items sent for auction may not be enough to raise enough Mixed Yuan Units.

But this is an advertisement.

When the time comes, all the major powers participating in the auction will know that Tiangong Pavilion has these products.

Naturally, cooperation followed.

Where there is cooperation, there will be mixed units.

Subsequently, Qin Hao notified Hong, Lei Shen, and Luo Feng.

The group met in a virtual universe.

"Third brother, what's the urgent matter?"

Thor burst into laughter as soon as he entered.

As you can see, the bald head is even shinier than before.

However, its strength is also much greater than before.

"Second brother, how far have you progressed in your understanding of the Thunder Domain?" Qin Hao teased.

Thor looked at Qin Hao speechlessly: "Could you change how you address me?"

Qin Hao doesn't really like this kind of address, so he said before that he can be called Lao San (the third brother), but not Xiao San (the third sister).

Thor was furious and tried to use this as a threat.

After joking around for a while, Hong stopped them.

"How old are you? Still having this childlike fun?"

Luo Feng asked with a smile, "Master, is there something good that you've summoned us for today?"

As an apprentice, Luo Feng was initially quite awkward.

However, those who have had more interactions with Qin Hao naturally know that he is an unconventional person.

Once we got along, we became more relaxed.

However, the deep-seated respect remained undiminished.

Instead of speaking first, Qin Hao asked, "By the way, how did your cosmic mercenary assessment go?"

"They all passed," Hong said with a smile. "But to be honest, this assessment was quite difficult."

"But we've also gained a lot," Thor said, somewhat excitedly. "There were quite a few battles along the way. And life-or-death crises were enough to unleash our potential. My Thunder Domain has already advanced to the second level."

Indeed, not too much time has passed.

Thor's second realm has appeared.

And this was before the crisis at Mount Nuolan even began.

But if you think about it, it's not long now.

As they were talking, Coulson suddenly said, "Chen Yang, the early warning devices deployed in the solar system have detected that two spaceships have suddenly appeared in the solar system."

"What?" Hong was taken aback.

They originally knew that the master of Meteorite Star had set up a secret method in the solar system, and even when they returned, they had to follow the secret method given by Babata to break through.

Otherwise, entering the solar system would be harder than climbing to heaven.

But how did a spaceship suddenly appear?

who is it?

How strong are they?

Is Earth in danger?
Previously, one of Qin Hao's clones was on Earth, so they weren't too worried.

But by this time, Qin Hao's clone had already left.

It's said that iPlus, whichever you choose, is the test for embracing the universe.

However, because Qin Hao was stronger, he did not join them.

This is so that they won't hold us back, nor will it hinder their progress.

Qin Hao is too strong. If they take on missions that are too difficult, they will face life-or-death crises.

Even more dangerous than a life-or-death crisis.

They wanted to force themselves to unleash their potential and improve their strength by facing life and death.

It's not like I'm looking for death.

However, if it's too simple, it won't be useful for Qin Hao.

Therefore, both parties agreed to continue developing their own businesses.

At this point on Earth, the only people who might exist are the slaves that Qin Hao bought.
Although there were quite a few people, Hong was still somewhat worried.

Qin Hao wasn't worried, as the early warning system he had set up was beyond even the cosmic level.

Moreover, this should be the advance team of Nuolan Mountain, or rather, just an expedition team.

At most, it's only at the star level, and the spaceships there aren't very advanced either, so it's impossible for it to break through that level.

Sure enough, Coulson said, "It seems there is an unexpected wormhole in the solar system."

The other party must have entered the solar system through a wormhole.

But don't worry, the strongest of the opponents are only a few star-level beings.

The early warning devices that Chen Yang deployed in the solar system were enough to blast the enemy into dust.

Besides, there are over two hundred star-level beings that Chen Yang has deployed on Earth.

It's impossible for the other party to get close.

call.

After all, it was their hometown, and both Hong and Lei Shen were very worried.

Luo Feng was the same.

Even Luo Feng's child is over a year old, and he still has his wife, parents, and others on Earth.

If Earth faces a crisis, what about Luo Feng?

At this time, the solar system.

The Nolan Mountain family was also overjoyed.

"An unknown place, an unclaimed planet."

"We've struck it rich on this native planet."

Before they could even rejoice, the spaceship's early warning system sounded an alarm.

Then, the AI ​​asked, "We have received plaintext information. Do you want to play it?"

what?
What's happening here?
It seems this isn't some native planet?
Was all that fun for nothing?
They weren't immediately disappointed; they wondered if it was an indigenous planet and if there was any profit to be made.

It also depends on the other party's strength.

If the strength is insufficient, then even if a fait accompli is created, no one in the Black Dragon Mountain Universe Kingdom will mention it.

They know best how the Nuolanshan family rose to power.

The darkness in the universe is always much deeper than you can imagine.

"Play it."

As the sound fades, the artificial intelligence will also play out the received information.

A cute panda appeared in the picture.

Intelligent life?

It is impossible for a small, indigenous planet to have intelligent life.

It's unlikely to be a weak planetary force. So, they've run into a brick wall?
Coulson ignored them and raised his paw, saying, "This is the territory of the Earth Lord. The Earth Lord is the Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Craft Pavilion and the personal disciple of the Illusionary Butterfly King of the Qianwu Universe Kingdom. We request that you leave our territory immediately. Otherwise, we have the right to shoot you down."

what?
Is this place owned?

Earth Lord?

Master of Tiangong Pavilion?
A disciple of the Illusionary Butterfly King of the Qianwu Universe Kingdom?
Each of these statements surprised the members of the Nuolanshan family.

Moreover, if these are true, the very first one indicates that this place is owned.

Since it's not a native planet, they have no right to invade.

As for the Tiangong Pavilion?
The members of the Nuolanshan family felt that the name sounded somewhat familiar.

But the Qianwu Universe Kingdom knows that.

They are considered a third-rate universe kingdom. Above them is the Black Dragon Mountain universe kingdom, and above that is the Qianwu universe kingdom.

It was considered the suzerain state of their suzerain state.

How could they dare to offend them?
And the Illusionary Butterfly King?
The eight hundred kings and marquises of the Qianwu Universe Kingdom were all immortals, and all were important figures whom the kings and marquises wished to meet but could never meet.

The piercing sound of the spaceship's alarm system further informed them.

There exists a danger here that they cannot overcome.

If we stay any longer, we will surely die.

"How to do?"

"Get out first."

These messages are not difficult to verify.

Where there is a Lord, there is a record throughout the universe.

As for the Illusionary Butterfly King?
Tiangong Pavilion?
As the spacecraft disembarked, the alarm system stopped sounding.

Qin Hao withdrew his gaze and did not intend to pursue the matter further.

He'll deal with these illegal forces once his cultivation level improves.

This statement may sound like an excuse.

But it’s also true.

If you lack the strength, forcibly pursuing the matter will yield no results.

It's also a waste of time.

With that time, he could directly cultivate and improve his strength.

Just like the Fire Phoenix Group.

This is the power of a prince from the Qianwu Universe Kingdom.

Making any moves now could easily cause unnecessary trouble.

However, thinking about the Locke Divine Water on the other party, Qin Hao had some other ideas.

Perhaps we could send Senior Luo on a trip?
Even if this notorious force were eliminated, Qin Hao would not feel any discomfort.

Moreover, the amount of Locke Divine Water will decrease as time goes by.

If I had this, I wouldn't lack mixed units.

But can Luo really be trusted at this point?
"Perhaps we can offer the other party some incentives first. Let him study the Heavenly Book Stele once, but we can't use the complete Heavenly Book Stele. We can use other ones first, to give Luo a little taste of the benefits."

Only after you have solidified the other person's belief can you get them to help you.

The value of Locke's Divine Water is indeed very high.

But Luo's difficulties cannot be solved by those few mixed units.

Qin Hao is only interested in those Locke Divine Waters because his current strength is insufficient; the weapons he forges and the potions he refines cannot fetch such high prices.

Once he gains power, wealth will naturally be within his grasp.

Well, let's do it.

"Alright, let's not worry about Earth anymore."

In the original story, Luo Feng and his companions had to fight tooth and nail to cultivate, and they almost failed.

And that's how it ended, all done so casually.

As for the Nuolanshan family?
Qin Hao believed that although the other party was only at the cosmic level.

However, the other party was still able to find out what kind of power the Heavenly Craft Pavilion was.

Moreover, the Tiangong Pavilion has now announced the addition of Luo, a peak realm master.

If Nuolanshan dares to take a hard line again, then he'll be eating poison.

Are you looking for death?

After drawing the attention of the others back, Qin Hao said, "Let's get down to business. I recently recruited a Realm Lord as an honorific."

what?
Luo Feng and the other two were all startled.

You did something so big without making a sound?
That's terrifying!

Qin Hao looked at the three of them and was extremely satisfied with their reactions.

He smiled and said, "In my second life, I built a Tower of Inquiry. He will dedicate a portion of his consciousness to reside there. If you have any questions, you can go there to ask."

After a pause, Qin Hao made them accept this reality.

Upon hearing that they could seek guidance from a realm master, Luo Feng and his companions were clearly extremely excited.

Although Luo Feng could also ask Qin Hao for advice, Qin Hao was always able to answer Luo Feng's questions.

But clearly, a realm lord's vision is also extremely high.

Besides, in a group of three, there is bound to be one who can teach me.

The Realm Lord must also be able to see many things that Qin Hao cannot.

Besides, there's also Hong and Thor.
I kept seeking advice from the third brother, and although they were in a good mood, they didn't seem to mind.

However, it still doesn't look good on the surface.

Moreover, what about a realm lord?

To be the closest thing to immortality—this is an immense opportunity.

Qin Hao then laughed and said, "Moreover, this realm lord is named Luo, and he cultivates the laws of light and time."

Hong, you can focus your questions on this senior.

After entering his second life, he also greatly admired your experiences.

The elder said he has a collection of secret techniques that he can pass on to you.

"what?"

Hong couldn't sit still any longer: "Really? Does that mean I have to become your apprentice?"

If he despises the Lord of the Realm, he will not hesitate.

This is a good thing.

Even Thor was a little envious.

Qin Hao shook his head: "You don't need to do this. There's no need for you to become my disciple."

"Why? Third brother? I think he's pretty good." Hong himself thought so.

Qin Hao replied, "My requirement for you is still the Cosmic Peak Genius Battle a few years from now. If you make it into the top 1,000 in the universe, you can enter the core layer of the Virtual Universe Company."

Becoming an immortal disciple is very simple.

"It is not difficult to find a master."

In the original story, Hong even became an apprentice of the founder of the Giant Axe.

However, that was on the premise that Hong had revealed his state of mind.

Qin Hao doesn't intend to let them expose this this time.

He immediately reminded them, "By the way, you don't need to be too careful in front of this Realm Lord."

But when we're out and about, or even when we enter the core of the virtual universe company in the future, we must never reveal our state of mind.

"Why?" Hong asked, somewhat puzzled.

But vaguely, it seems like I've grasped something.

They have been in space for quite some time now.

I didn't understand before, but now that I've met more people, I vaguely know a little bit about it.

Qin Hao looked at the three of them and said seriously, "You have met quite a few people in the universe."

I believe you have a general idea that there are many different groups in the universe.

But their mindset is generally not as good as that of people on Earth.

This is a talent that is common to all people on Earth.

You can tell just by looking at the four of us.

The four of us are all potential Realm Lords, or even surpass Realm Lords and advance to Immortality.

Even higher…

It's just a goal, so I can only say whatever I want.

But Hong and his team were indeed confident.

"Just think about it, how many planets does it take to produce one World Lord?"

boom.

Before it was mentioned, they all had a vague feeling about it.

When Qin Hao brought it up, they understood.

"This is indeed not normal."

Qin Hao nodded: "Don't say anything else. Just know this, and don't leak it. We can't afford the responsibility we'll have to bear if this secret is revealed."

Although I don't yet know why this is happening, I believe that as long as we grow, we can still keep this secret.

Even if there are treasures, we can afford them.

And when the time comes, if possible, we can also provide it to the ethnic group as appropriate.

To paraphrase a quote from one of our Earth's great figures.

"When poor, cultivate your own virtue; when successful, benefit all under heaven."

Qin Hao said this on purpose, because you have to know that the virtual universe is the original ancestor's secret technique.

The virtual universe is managed by a mechanical race of the level of a universe lord, enslaved by the Primordial One.

Qin Hao felt that many secrets could not be hidden from the original ancestor.

Since that's the case, then let's make it look better.

If the original ancestor had known the extent of Qin Hao's genius, he naturally wouldn't have revealed this secret.

Of course, Qin Hao is also placing his bets.

I wonder if I'll attract the attention of the original?
If I can get in touch with this powerful person, my future will be much brighter.

At least in Chaos City, one can obtain a lot of convenience.

Of course, Qin Hao doesn't care whether it succeeds or not.

It's just a casual move.

Thor and Luo Feng both agreed immediately.

Hong hesitated for a moment, but finally agreed.

Sure enough, this person has an infinitely broad mind and no concept of country whatsoever.

In his eyes, they were all human beings, and all of them could be trusted.

But Hong's experiences in the universe also made him realize that the human race is not all peaceful.

If word gets out that Earth possesses treasures, it will cause trouble.

Qin Hao also promised that once they rise to power, this treasure could be made available for human use.

Hong naturally stopped objecting.

Next, Qin Hao brought up a few more things.

He said, "Next, you all need to work harder in your cultivation."

The battle of the universe's top geniuses is not far off.

I hope you all perform well then.

Of course, I hope Lei Lei and Guang can go even further.

Even if you can't get into the core of the Virtual Universe Company.

I hope they can also enter the Qianwu Secret Realm of the Qianwu Universe Kingdom.

This is still beneficial to the development of our planet.

Don't be fooled by the fact that Qianwu Zun seems to have little prestige among the Venerables.

But he was, after all, a respected figure.

He probably has some methods similar to the Chaos Monument in Chaos City.

Although the Heavenly Book Stele belongs to him, he cannot arbitrarily give it special treatment.

It's good to be exposed to more good things.

Joining the Qianwu Secret Realm doesn't mean you've left Earth or the Tiangong Pavilion.

They all nodded.

Hong also asked, "By the way, did you find any hidden gems in your 'Hidden Gem' project?"

Qin Hao thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "You know what, there really is one. It's said to be a junior celestial master from the Longhu Mountain lineage, with considerable strength and exceptional talent. I'm thinking that perhaps I'll have to take on another disciple soon."

Luo Feng was stunned. Was he about to have another junior brother?

Is that young Taoist master really that talented?
Is it as good as me?

Luo Feng was still very confident, especially after he possessed the Golden Horned Beast and his talent gradually became apparent.

Qin Hao patted Luo Feng on the shoulder and laughed, "Don't worry, among the Earth lineage, I've always felt that, apart from me, your talent is the highest."
