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

At that very moment, on the planet Xuelan.

An E-class spaceship landed on the platform set up by the Tiangong Pavilion.

Xiao Dong glanced at it, then turned back to continue looking at the book in his hands.

To be honest, he has been a Venerable for a very long time, countless epochs, and has not been able to advance any further.

It seems that the Venerable One has reached the end of his progress.

He doesn't even dare to go out into space.

Too dangerous.

At this moment, although his heart was not shaken, it was still touched.

It seems that your sensitivity is something you've developed in your spare time.

With his mindset driving his strength, he has a good chance of becoming a hegemon.

"These ancient books?"

Xiao Dong was deeply shocked. Previously, Qin Hao had said that there were extremely important treasures on Earth.

These are the classic texts of these ancient sages.

He didn't really believe it.

Because they are just ordinary people, what kind of classics could they possibly write?
What help would it offer to this venerable one?
But at that moment, he realized he was wrong, terribly wrong.

These classic texts held a particularly important place for him.

Now, he has only just looked at the basics, yet he has already been moved and experienced growth.

What if I watch them all?
Moreover, there are some particularly interesting things said in this book.

"To learn without being weary and to teach without being tired—what is there for me in this world?"

"Learning without thinking will lead to failure; thinking without learning will lead to peril."

"By reviewing what you have learned and gaining new insights, you can become a teacher."

All of this was telling him one thing.

All the content can be watched repeatedly.

Each viewing brings new content and new insights.

He had just tried these things roughly; reading a book several times, each time he gained different insights.

Just then, Luo returned, but Xiao Dong made no comment.

Luo knocked on the door and only entered after receiving permission.

He first bowed to Xiao Dong, and then became even more certain that Xiao Dong valued Qin Hao highly.

Then, Luo bowed to Qin Hao, a gesture of respect for power.

There was nothing they could do; Xiao Dong was a venerable one after all.

The great power originates from within; its strength is immense.

"How is it?" Qin Hao asked.

Luo nodded. In fact, all of these things had already been reported in the virtual universe.

I'm just here to go through the motions.

"Sect Master, there are two Immortals who are willing to join the Heavenly Craft Pavilion."

A military lord was willing to become a worshipper.

The others have all left.

The two joining means that they, like Lemonto and Moria, have joined the Celestial Crafts Pavilion.

From then on, their subordinates also obeyed the orders of the Heavenly Craft Pavilion.

As for those who become worshippers, only they themselves can do things for the Heavenly Crafts Pavilion, which is somewhat like obeying orders but not procuring them.

As for these immortal subordinates, they would naturally obey orders if commanded by the immortal military lord.

Without their permission, the Heavenly Craft Pavilion has no right to dispatch them.

Qin Hao didn't care anymore.

Those who didn't want to associate with the Heavenly Crafts Pavilion left in a hurry.

They'll have their day of regret.

Qin Hao nodded, and Luo then led the group inside.

There were five people in total. Even from the outside, they could sense that there was an extremely powerful person inside.

It only takes a little thought to know who it is.

After entering, Xiao Dong sat down next to Qin Hao and casually picked up a book to read.

The group of people were all taken aback.

As expected, the Illusionary Butterfly King faction highly values ​​Qin Hao.

"Lemonto, Moria greets the Pavilion Master."

They greeted each other with the demeanor of subordinates, bowing almost at a 90-degree angle.

Qin Hao, naturally, wouldn't be presumptuous. He simply reached out and used a bit of force to lift the two of them up.

Of course, given Qin Hao's strength, it's out of the question that he could directly withstand and lift up the two immortals.

But his move was also extremely clever and demonstrated his strength.

Lemonto and Moria stood up, after all, Qin Hao's cultivation was only at the peak of the Stellar level.

But they are immortal, and they surrendered voluntarily, so they naturally have dignity.

Qin Hao would not treat them like slaves.

"However, this Pavilion Master's power is formidable. And his technique is extremely skillful. Indeed, he deserves to be called a genius who appears only once every hundred million epochs."

Lemonto and Moria exchanged a glance, and then they became happy.

The better this person's prospects are, the more it means they made the right choice in siding with him.

Luo witnessed this scene and thought to himself, "This is shocking?"

There will be more moments in the future when you will amaze us.

He then introduced a few more: "These are Batland and Danila. They are both Immortal Lords, each with a mercenary base under their command."

"Batterland, Danila greets the Pavilion Master."

These two, one male and one female, are a man and a woman. Batland is the man, with pointed horns on his head and a large nose, somewhat resembling a pig, which is what Earth calls a pig.

However, this is a Celestial-level pig. Its skin is not tough and has many runes on it, which clearly increases combat power.

Danila, on the other hand, has a long nose, red feathers on his head, and wears a full set of crimson armor, making him quite heroic.

At this moment, the two of them were bowing even closer to the ground than Lemonto and Moria had been before.

It's clear that Xiao Dong's presence here puts immense pressure on them.

However, Xiao Dong did not make any statement during this process.

But the more this was the case, the more uneasy they became.

Think about it, they're still eyeing other people's things.

As a result, they simply sent a few people over and took care of them.

On the contrary, they were unaware that there was a venerable figure presiding over the other family.

They could probably be defeated, suppressed, or even killed with ease.

"Get up. Now that you've joined, you'll be at their beck and call from now on. The Heavenly Craft Pavilion won't mistreat you. You can exchange the Heavenly Craft Pavilion's secret techniques with your contribution points."

As for the benefits, they already know about them.

They didn't care about those contribution levels originally.

But looking at the exchange list from Tiangong Pavilion, I was quite shocked.

Many things are considered extremely precious even by a domain lord.

The exchange list at Tiangong Pavilion, however, has no limit on the quantity, allowing them to exchange as they please.

Of course, this is on the premise that they need to complete the task and earn contribution points.

This is very simple for immortals.

Even if you don't go on any missions, just sitting in the Heavenly Craft Pavilion is a mission with a high contribution value.

There are also some that even realm lords can use.

As for the most mysterious opportunity—the chance for Luo to break through and comprehend the laws—it was also clearly priced.

However, it requires a huge amount of contribution points to redeem once.

They were initially wondering why Qin Hao dared to put it out in the open.

It was only when he saw Xiao Dong that he realized how much the Illusionary Butterfly King's faction valued Qin Hao.

I had heard before that a Zerg hive attacked without even a splash.

Sure enough, with a venerable one personally overseeing things here, how could it be so easy to break through?
“This is Ortiz,” Lo introduced again.

This Ortiz is a human-like being, with blond hair, blue eyes, and a height of over four meters.

Even if Qin Hao is over 1.8 meters tall, he is already considered tall among humans on Earth.

But compared to Ortiz, he was not even half as good, not even reaching his waist.

But at this moment, Ortiz bowed even more thoroughly than Batterland.

There was nothing he could do; although the Venerable One seemed to be absent, a subtle pressure was still emanating from him.

"Sect Master, Ortiz is willing to join the Heavenly Craft Pavilion and will follow your lead without question."

Ortiz changed his attitude.

Seeing Xiao Dong reminded me of the redemption list I had seen before.

He felt that he could help Luo break through, and once he broke through, he would gain the insight of becoming a marquis and achieving immortality.

It is indeed extremely precious.

His original idea included taking some tough measures.

He was an immortal being, while his opponent was merely a minor star-level being.

What is he afraid of?
But at this moment, all dirty thoughts must be put away.

He feared that if he didn't do this, he would become someone else's slave.

They were also aware of Godwin's existence.

If they become slaves, what dignity will they have left, and what hope will they have?
But Qin Hao simply reached out and gently supported the person, helping them to their feet.

“I’m not the kind of person who forces things. Since Ortiz only wants to be an offering, then he will naturally be an offering.”

The previously agreed-upon conditions remain unchanged.

What's the situation?
An immortal sought refuge, only to be rejected?

Qin Hao spoke softly, but his tone was firm.

Xiao Dong naturally understood what he meant, and even looked up at him.

However, Qin Hao did not change his mind, nor did he say anything more.

After explaining, Qin Hao clapped his hands.

Then someone brought up delicious food and wine.

Qin Hao smiled and said, "These are my Tiangong Pavilion's secret medicinal dishes: Five Treasure Lotus Seed Soup, Eight Treasure Chicken, and Clear Stream Spring."

They are all delicious and can aid in cultivation, but they haven't yet reached the point where they can aid in immortal cultivation.

Please consider this a delicious meal.

Qin Hao adopted a separate meal system, with each person having a table in front of them filled with various medicinal dishes and fine wines.

There were also servants standing by, watching what they ate, and immediately serving it again.

Xiao Dong put down his book, looking rather impatient.

For him, this food was nothing more than a matter of satisfying his appetite.

Books were the source of his progress.

Having just received the books, he didn't want to waste a single moment.

But if he doesn't move while he's here, no one else dares to move at all.

Qin Hao glanced at him and immediately knew what was going on.

As Xiao Dong picked up the wine cup from the clear stream, he smelled a delicate fragrance.

One sip, and a warm current flows through you, refreshing your heart and soul.

"It's really good."

Xiao Dong also enjoys wine, and this wine is indeed excellent, with a superb taste.

It's like a clear spring in the deep mountains; no wonder it's called a clear stream.

A tiny bit of cosmic energy circulated within his body, transforming into his divine power and being stored away.

The power was minimal, less than a trace.

This is because his divine power is extremely advanced and of exceptionally high quality.

This clear stream and flowing spring were indeed for imperial use, but they were not of much use.

However, it is quite useful for martial artists at the cosmic level and below.

The domain lord will likely receive some benefits, but the benefits will still not be significant.

It can barely be considered an auxiliary item for daily cultivation at the cosmic level.

This stuff isn't cheap.

What Xiao Dong knew, the other immortals naturally knew as well.

These items can all be exchanged for contribution points, and Luo, Lemonto, and others all had their eyes on them.

Although the entire Three Axes Mountain group has joined the Heavenly Crafts Pavilion, these people will certainly be more obedient to their orders. This is tantamount to forming a faction within the Heavenly Crafts Pavilion.

The stronger these people are, the more influence they have.

Of course, the essential power grab must remain untouched.

The Venerable One sat there, and every word that was sent out was carefully considered.

They would have no way to survive.

But it's nothing to gain a little benefit for yourself.

Soon, Xiao Dong finished his wine and then picked up the Five Treasures Lotus Seed Soup to drink.

The lotus seeds used in this Five Treasures Lotus Seed Soup are very fragrant and also helpful for spiritual practice.

Xiao Dong even felt that this thing could calm his somewhat agitated mood.

It seems to be very helpful for calming the mind.

In the Qianyang Realm, this thing also has the effect of calming the mind and eliminating inner demons.

The others tasted it in turn, and Ortiz felt a pang of regret.

If he had known that Qin Hao was so important in Venerable Xiao Dong's eyes, he shouldn't have just been a worshipper.

Moreover, these things are also very beneficial.

It takes a lot of effort to train the people under your command.

Otherwise, why would he have harbored thoughts of coveting Qin Hao's treasure?
It’s too late to regret now.

He had just offered to transfer to the Heavenly Craft Pavilion, but Qin Hao politely declined.

He also has a temper; after all, he is a great and immortal being.

Although he was only an Immortal Army Lord, his strength was far greater than that of his opponent.

He thought that since he had obtained five immortalities, one of whom was granted a marquisate, he could ignore him.

Of course, Ortiz didn't dare to say anything more to Qin Hao.

I'm just not in a good mood and feel depressed.

In the past, even though he wasn't among the top eight hundred kings and marquises in the Qianwu Universe Kingdom, he was still a guest of honor of various major powers.

He wanted to seek refuge with them, but was refused.

Doesn't he want to lose face?
If word gets out, countless people will laugh at him.

"Pavilion Master."

Ortiz asked respectfully.

Qin Hao nodded: "What questions does Lord Ortiz have to ask?"

Ortiz felt a little irritated. In the past, everyone who faced him called him the great Ortiz.

Qin Hao's title is really too bland, isn't it?

But Xiao Dong, standing beside him, still exuded an imposing aura, which only enveloped him.

Any dissatisfaction he may have will result in a devastating blow.

No matter how much temper Ortiz had, he had to suppress it.

"I just want to ask, if my men also want to complete the Heavenly Craft Pavilion's mission, is that possible?"

Qin Hao was not surprised at all by this.

"Yes, but it can only be calculated based on external personnel."

Ortiz was somewhat frustrated; the inside and the outside were naturally different.

For completing the same task, internal staff can receive 30% more in bonuses.

There are fewer outsiders.

Moreover, the prices on the exchange list are different.

External users need to consume an additional 30% to redeem it.

After a while, that's 60% of the consumption.

That means they have to do half the work to achieve the same result.

Ortiz was unwilling to give up and wanted to ask again.

But Xiao Dong's imposing aura had already overwhelmed him, and Qin Hao remained silent, so Ortiz knew there was no chance.

Qin Hao naturally wouldn't allow him to offer opinions casually and receive permission.

Things that are too easily obtained are naturally not cherished.

Moreover, with comparisons, Lemonto, Moria, and the newly allied Batland and Danila would feel that their allegiance was worthwhile.

Those who arrive first, those who meet Xiao Dong and see the benefits before deciding to join him, will all receive the same treatment.

How then can we highlight the benefits of joining the Heavenly Craft Pavilion?
Therefore, this request must be politely declined.

But he wouldn't speak directly, leaving room for maneuver.

We'll see what Ortiz does next.

If the other party actively approaches you, then actively help them with their affairs.

It's not impossible to consider giving them a chance later.

Talented people are rare, and he is, after all, an immortal being, capable of accomplishing quite a lot.

Even if it's used for construction, it can be very useful.

Moreover, Tiangong Pavilion will grow larger and larger in the future, and its business will become more diverse.

Having some immortal military leaders in charge can also reduce a lot of unnecessary trouble.

Just as Tiangong Pavilion was planning to expand its business throughout the Qianwu Universe Kingdom, it also needed to develop its business in other universe kingdoms.

He joined the core layer of the virtual universe, and some things could then begin to be done.

In this process, it is also possible to infringe upon the interests of others.

The presence of five immortals can effectively deter some people.

Those who covet him will be quite wary and dare not make a move when they know that five immortals have joined the Heavenly Craft Pavilion.

We should at least wait and see for a while.

After a banquet that was generally well-received by the guests, Xiao Dong had already disappeared.

Along with him were a large collection of ancient books that Qin Hao had previously provided.

Before long, Xiao Dong arrived at the palace of the Illusionary Butterfly King.

Upon seeing his most promising disciple, the Illusionary Butterfly King smiled broadly.

That smile is so captivating that anyone who sees it will be completely mesmerized.

Even Xiao Dong was only attracted for a fleeting moment.

Although he recovered quickly, he couldn't help but smile bitterly inside.

"How is it?" the Illusionary Butterfly Queen said with a smile, then her previously nonchalant demeanor immediately turned serious: "You seem to have improved?"

Xiao Dong nodded: "Although the native planet where this junior brother is located has never produced any extraordinary beings before."

However, the ancient sages who appeared in their time explained some very good principles about the universe, which also inspired me quite a bit.

Oh, right, these were asked to be brought over by my junior brother.

It is said that if you, Master, carefully contemplate this, perhaps you will also gain some understanding.

Perhaps, taking that step will happen in an instant.

The Illusionary Butterfly King seemed to understand, his eyes lit up, and then he shook his head.

This step is difficult, extremely difficult.

But then I thought of Xiao Dong's imposing presence; he had actually made some progress.

If it were me, I might not be unable to do it either.

Then, the Illusionary Butterfly King stared intently at the pile of books.

Actually, there are many important ancient texts. There are so many native planets, and there are similar texts as well.

But what works may not necessarily be effective.

"By the way, these are the same books. Junior Brother gave them to the junior sisters so they can take a good look at them too. Improving combat power isn't just about fighting; it also requires accumulation."

"it is good."

The Illusionary Butterfly King only had time to say one word before he was completely absorbed in the experience.

These indigenous texts, though they don't seem to contain any secret methods of cultivation.

But the principle is profound and far-reaching.

She never expected that such a classic text would exist.

Ordinary people can't understand it; they just find it profound and unfathomable.

However, she was able to draw a lot of nourishment from it.

Meanwhile, Qin Hao also made arrangements for the five immortals.

"Next, our Tiangong Pavilion will be expanding rapidly. We'll need you all to take charge of these locations."

The Black Dragon Mountain Empire is too small; it's not worth having several immortals stationed there.

Luo is still stationed on Xuelan Star.

Qin Hao will go to Chaos City.

But the past self will soon emerge from the trial.

At that time, it doesn't matter whether the Venerable One in charge of the trial goes back on his word or takes action.

He wants to leave that area.

At worst, it can be reborn and placed in the Tiangong Pavilion on Xuelan Star.

"The trial has reached its final stage. Once a World Lord weapon is forged, one can initially obtain the treasure-forging inheritance of the Overlord of Kamps. Perhaps, one can even obtain a Palace Treasure."

As for Venerable Anders, his motives and nature are hard to discern.

After this period of contact, Qin Hao discovered that the other party was loyal to the Krampus Overlord, but as time went by, that loyalty had diminished.

However, the other side has set up many traps, seemingly intending to wipe out all those who went to the trial.

If the first phase is completed and things stop at the right time, one can still withdraw unscathed.

However, once they enter the second stage, they will be constantly targeted.

Ultimately, none of them will pass.

The dead are annihilated by their souls.

He saw it with his own eyes.

The other party seemed unfazed by his presence, certain that he could neither leave nor send a message out.

But in reality, Qin Hao already knew.

"However, he has recently shown a hint of excitement. It seems that he is actually happy to accept that I will pass."

I just don't understand why he's so conflicted.

The other party has loyalty, but it's definitely not much.

Qin Hao couldn't possibly be completely unguarded against the other party.

"Never mind that for now."

Over in the Qianyang Realm, the demonic calamity is growing increasingly fierce.

I should also go over there and push forward my Star Element Project.

In fact, this Star Yuan Project operates on a much wider scale than just between the Qianyang Realm and Earth.

It will also operate within the universe of the Swallowed Star world.

He even wanted to bring the Star Origin Project to Chaos City if possible.

The higher the level of Star Element, the more energy it contains.

As a general equivalent, it's quite good.

In the future, Earth will be integrated into the universe.

Earth's currency, Star Dollar, is naturally not as worthless as the currencies of other lower-level cosmic nations.

If the other party wants to earn Star Yuan, they need to transport some good things to Earth.

This could also accelerate the prosperity of the Earth.

True Spirit Transformation.

Qin Hao opened his eyes at Qinghe Bay in Qianyang Realm.

Feel your own strength; you're already at the peak of the second realm.

This applies to both martial arts cultivation and Taoist cultivation.

"I'm just one step away from advancing to the third realm. Actually, it's not that difficult."

Qin Hao sensed that the martial arts insights he brought back from the Swallowed Star World could be gained with just a little practice.

The essence of the fist technique will then be born, and advancing to the third realm will be a natural progression.

Meanwhile, on the Daoist cultivator's side, a golden core was already floating and sinking in his dantian.

During this period, there were talismans, Taoist magic, and even a chessboard representing heaven and earth.

"The Yin Spirit is already right before our eyes; it will be conceived in at most three months."

However, in terms of martial arts, you can advance ahead of others.

Qin Hao stood up and performed a set of punches, his movements powerful and impressive.

Divine intent was already faintly brewing on his fist.

However, he didn't continue the rehearsal: "Let things take their course. Next, we still need to push forward with the Star Element Project." (End of Chapter)
