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

"Junior brother, what's the matter?"

Venerable Guiyi stepped forward and asked a question.

For some time now, Qin Hao's past self, Hongmeng, has been staying in this palace since he was taken in as a disciple by the Lord of Chaos City.

He cultivated while watching the many secret techniques that the Lord of Chaos City allowed him to see.

He wasn't picky at all; he watched everything that was allowed to be watched.

When Venerable Guiyi learned of this, he originally wanted to offer some advice.

But considering the special nature of this junior brother, he forcibly restrained himself.

Afterwards, the junior brother purchased a lot of materials and then forged a number of divine weapons.

Venerable Guiyi knew this, but he never said a word about it to anyone.

The Lord of Chaos City resides in Chaos City, but the actual administrator is Venerable Guiyi.

It's impossible for the Lord of Chaos City to do everything.

I just don't know why this junior brother has asked me to come here today.
Previously, the junior apprentice bought everything himself.

Venerable Guiyi vaguely knew that this junior brother's identity was extraordinary, but he did not delve into his actual identity.

He would carry out whatever his master, the Lord of Chaos City, commanded.

Venerable Guiyi tried his best to meet his requests.

In his past life, Hongmeng looked at Venerable Guiyi with a smile. Although Venerable Guiyi's expression was rather serious, Hongmeng was not afraid.

However, it's not appropriate to tease the other person to ease the tension.

The best attitude these days is to speak frankly and directly.

"Senior brother, I have some materials I'd like to buy. But I don't have enough points right now, so..."

Before he could finish speaking, Venerable Guiyi nodded: "Is 30,000 points enough?"

what?
He's not here to freeload.

Hongmeng's hesitation made Venerable Guiyi frown, recalling his master's words.

This junior brother cannot leave the palace; at most, he can only use the virtual universe to take a look outside.

Her heart softened: "Is 50,000 points enough? Or is there something you need to buy? Just tell me."

Are you planning to buy it for him directly?

Hongmeng smiled and shook his head: "There are some things I don't have the authority to buy, I don't have enough points. But I have Hunyuan Units, which I can use to pay. Also, I have some resources here, so I'll use Hunyuan Units to buy them."

Hongmeng originally wanted to say that his Heavenly Craft Pavilion contained many good things.

Especially this time, within the Qianyang Realm, the Seven-Colored Dragon Avatar has advanced to the fourth realm, and the resources it can access are much more advanced than before.

Previously, when I was in the world of Shrouding the Heavens, I also collected quite a few Medicine Kings in Kunlun.

It was already very effective in the world of Shrouding the Heavens, and after leaving the world of Shrouding the Heavens, the longevity factor was replenished.

To make these medicinal kings even more effective.

Even a venerable person could use it if it were placed here.

But after thinking about it, HarmonyOS ultimately decided not to release it.

Venerable Guiyi thought about it for a moment, but didn't dwell on it.

In fact, Hongmeng had an idea: perhaps he could contact the Venerable Qianwu.

This revered one who owes a debt to his people will surely need an opportunity to repay that debt.

This is a great collaborator.

It seems inappropriate for Venerable Guiyi to act as a middleman, as he also helps the Lord of Chaos City manage the initial universe every day.

Although he didn't know what Hongmeng was thinking, since the other party had said so, Venerable Guiyi did not refuse.

"Give me the list, and I'll arrange it for you."

They had already added a virtual universe account before, so they could transfer money directly.

Venerable Guiyi was startled when he saw Hongmeng directly transfer one million Hunyuan units.

Are all kids these days so rich?
Even if you inherited the legacy of a venerable one, this shouldn't be the case.

However, he did not delve into the matter further. Instead, he quickly glanced at the list. Although somewhat surprised, some of these materials were quite rare and required at least Immortal-level access to purchase.

Although Hongmeng is his master's disciple, he already possesses the same level of authority as the winner of the Chaos City's peak genius battle.

But it's still not as good as the privileges of immortality, so there are many things you can't buy.

Perhaps, this was a setting intentionally made by the Master.

Master probably wanted to hide the existence of Hongmeng.

After all, buying things from the treasure vault exceeds Hongmeng's original strength, even though the purchase information will be blocked.

But eventually the news will leak out.

Those delivery teams, although they are very secretive.

Furthermore, there is virtual universe surveillance to keep these delivery people confidential and prevent them from revealing information casually.

But eventually there will be loopholes.

For example, some venerable ones asked, "Do these people really not reveal anything at all?"
Furthermore, if one hesitates even slightly when asked, the information will be leaked.

Although the current situation cannot be completely concealed.

However, by acting as an intermediary, the possibility of it being leaked is greatly reduced.

“Alright, I have a lot of these materials here, so there’s no need to buy them from the treasury. With my privileges, I can offer a discount, so it’s a total of 97 Hunyuan units.”

Venerable Guiyi was very efficient and finished everything in no time.

They even returned the remaining 30,000 Hunyuan units.

Hongmeng originally wanted to say that the remaining 30,000 Hunyuan units could be considered as a reward for his hard work.

But after thinking about it, he shut his mouth and said nothing.

A venerable one helped him with his work, but 30,000 Hunyuan units were simply not enough to show for it.

It's better to wait until the future, when I'm able to forge a supreme treasure myself, and then forge one for the other party. That would be better than anything else.

Venerable Guiyi gave Hongmeng a deep look and said, "In the future, if anything like this happens again, just send me an email in the virtual universe and I will make the arrangements for you."

"Thank you, Senior Brother." Hongmeng said, "Senior Brother, won't you ask what I need these materials for?"

"It's alright. Master said that your requests should be met as much as possible. Besides, you are using your own Hunyuan unit, so I don't need to ask any more questions."

There are doubts, but the ability to control desires is what makes intelligent beings intelligent.

Hongmeng smiled and said, "I will definitely tell my senior brother when I succeed in refining it."

The reason he didn't notify the Venerable Qianwu so quickly was that he didn't contact him.

That's all for the sake of this right now.

First, we need to get through to the Lord of Chaos City and Venerable Guiyi.

Later, this thing will definitely need to be known to the two of them.

The difficulty of forging this Heavenly Star Cannon was much lower than that of forging the Zhou Tian Star Chart he had previously forged.

Moreover, this stuff can be refined separately and then combined together.

This was originally a magical artifact belonging to the military strategist class. In the world of Swallowed Star, it would be somewhat similar to a mechanical treasure.

Venerable Guiyi didn't say anything more, but left directly.

Deep down, Venerable Guiyi found it amusing.

What haven't I seen?
Although this junior brother is said to have the ability to refine powerful artifacts, his success rate is reportedly extremely low.

Or rather, this is how it should be.

Can someone at the cosmic level really forge such a powerful treasure?
Although the other party is said to possess a special tool for controlling flames and assisting in the forging of treasures.

But it's still too dreamy.

Does it mean they have a problem with their own self-control?
But thinking about it, it seems that Hongmeng was accepted as a junior disciple by his master precisely because of this.

"It doesn't seem impossible. This person's identity seems a bit strange. If I remember correctly, there's another one in this Chaos City whose soul seems somewhat similar?"

As the Venerable Guiyi was the one who assisted the Lord of Chaos City in managing the initial universe, he had some understanding of the people in these four secret realms.

In my memory, I vaguely recall a soul that was somewhat similar to Hongmeng's.

However, he did not pursue the matter further.

"If Master thinks there's no problem, then that's fine. Since Master wants to keep it a secret, it means it's best not to investigate too much, as it could easily be exposed."

The materials were quickly transported over, and Venerable Guiyi instructed his immortal slaves to deliver them.

He decided that from now on, this immortal slave would dedicate himself to this task.

From now on, this slave will never be allowed to leave Chaos City, nor will he be allowed to leave this place.

The slave was quite willing.

The environment of Chaos City is excellent, which is also very beneficial to his cultivation.

Others don't know how much it takes to get in here.

Soul slaves are simply devoted to their masters; they do not lack ambition.

He still has the talent and the ambition to improve.

"Your Highness Hongmeng, my master sent me to deliver the materials."

Hongmeng was taken aback. This immortal must be Senior Brother Guiyi's slave, right?
The materials were delivered quite quickly.

Looking at the immortal with sharp horns before him, Hongmeng nodded and put everything away.

For someone like Venerable Guiyi, the World Ring is no longer expensive; it's quite common.

They should have quite a few slaves of the realm lords, or some followers.

No, just have them make one.

If these Venerable Ones were to leave no restrictions and allow the production of a large number of World Rings, the price of these World Rings would likely be driven down.

It's just unnecessary.

"From now on, if Your Highness Hongmeng wants to buy anything, just tell me directly. I will use my master's authority to purchase it and then deliver it directly to you."

Hongmeng was taken aback, but quickly understood.

Guiyi Venerable is a Venerable who has the potential to become a hegemon. He also has to help the Chaos City Lord manage the initial universe on a daily basis. Where would he find so much time to buy things for him?

Sending an immortal slave now would be most appropriate.

With the necessary permissions, one can purchase items using the authority granted by the Venerable Guiyi, and even receive discounts.

Is this what you're going to do, waste the time of such an immortal being?

Hmm, perhaps even immortal time isn't worth much to the Venerable One?

"it is good."

Having accepted these items, Hongmeng began his seclusion.

Upon entering the Palace of Ten Thousand Fires, Hongmeng approached the Refining Furnace and said, "Venerable Anders, I am about to refine a powerful treasure. Perhaps I will need your assistance."

Previously, Anders didn't have the authority, and he might not have been willing to let himself succeed.

Therefore, it was previously necessary to rely on the power of the seven-colored dragon avatar from the Qianyang Realm to refine it.

But its success was partly due to luck.

Fortunately, he didn't have high hopes at the time, since there was no threat of death. After some effort, he succeeded by luck.

At this moment, he had inherited most of the authority, and Anders also had his own plans.

In that case, we should just ask them for help.

The other party's body and spirit merged into the Palace of Ten Thousand Fires, assisting Hongmeng in refining weapons without any obstruction. It was even easier and more convenient than when the Seven-Colored Dragon clone helped.

There was no response, but Hongmeng was not surprised.

In any case, the treasure-refining furnace in front of them had already lit up, and the flames had already risen.

That's the other party's attitude.

She's just a little arrogant. (In the virtual universe.)

Luo Feng sat opposite Qin Hao, and at that moment, he was asking Qin Hao some questions.

Previously, he had followed Qin Hao's advice and purchased some secret techniques.

With the secret techniques Qin Hao suggested he purchase from the Heavenly Craft Pavilion, he had been cultivating throughout his journey.

Luo Feng felt that his strength had also improved by leaps and bounds.

Despite Babata occasionally smacking his lips and saying that if he had given resources to both clones, they might have already advanced to the level of Domain Lord by now, and the feedback to the Earthling clone would have also led to rapid improvement.

But both Luo Feng and Babata knew that Qin Hao's suggestion was the real one.

Moreover, Qin Hao's suggestion was for him to prepare for choosing the Chaos Stele after he went to Chaos City.

Babata's perspective is still stuck in the time when he followed Huyanbo.

Huyanbo is a loner, so everything he does is for the sake of survival.

But Luo Feng had already joined the Virtual Universe Company, and even if he hadn't, he had joined the Heavenly Craft Pavilion.

Qin Hao will naturally take care of everything.

For Luo Feng, the most important thing was not about strength, but about saving his life.

What he needs to do most is to solidify his foundation and raise his potential.

Instead of striving to improve combat power for a little bit of strength, they neglected to comprehend the laws.

The Virtual Universe Company also arranged an immortal teacher for Luo Feng, but the teacher cannot just come and ask questions casually.

The other party also has their own things to do and secret techniques to cultivate.

But Qin Hao, as a teacher, is different.

He has three bodies in one body; if this one is inconvenient, he can consult the other two clones.

Although the other two clones seem to have already gone to Chaos City.

But in the virtual universe, there are no problems; we can meet anytime.

"The Bloodstained Secret Manual itself describes the first three diagrams of the Nine Universes Chaos Stele. There are a total of 110 volumes. Except for the first volume, which is the general outline, the second to the 109th volumes contain 108 mysterious analytical and research methods of cultivation. The first nine are the easiest, and you have already learned them."

Qin Hao said calmly, "The middle 27 types are very difficult. They are like this..."

The Bloodstained Manual is considered an immortal manual, although Qin Hao couldn't get it for free from the Chaos City Lord.

However, this secret manual is still very useful, and it provides significant guidance for Qin Hao's cultivation of the laws of space.

So Qin Hao also bought it.

Virtual Universe Corporation only forbids the sharing of the secret techniques, but two people who have purchased the techniques can discuss them with each other.

This also makes it easier for geniuses to learn the secret manuals and comprehend the laws more smoothly.

Luo Feng, however, felt that this was hardly a discussion.

Qin Hao did most of the talking, but occasionally Luo Feng's flash of inspiration was also a gain for Qin Hao.

The aura behind Qin Hao's head also became even brighter.

Luo Feng has also noticed this change in recent days.

He had also read many ancient books from around the world and had some speculations about this change.

"Then, teacher, I'll take my leave."

After receiving some pointers from Qin Hao, Luo Feng learned a lot.

He couldn't wait to go back and try it.

During his three years in Chaos City, he did not intend to waste a single moment.

Although Rong Jun would occasionally invite him to gatherings, most of the time Luo Feng would just say a few words and then leave.

Rong Jun and the others actually cherish their time and rarely talk much.

However, because of Qin Hao, many of the more than 1,000 people from the four secret realms are now in close contact.

Occasionally, they would connect and discuss the cultivation of the laws.

Everyone had a good experience.

Qin Hao nodded and told Luo Feng to step down.

As he stood up and turned to leave, he noticed the arrival of Zhang Daoli and Zhang Yuanbai.

This grandfather and grandson were inseparable, which made Luo Feng a little envious, as they could enter Chaos City together.

Unlike myself, my family is still on Earth, or on the planet Xuelan.

With several immortals guarding the area, there shouldn't be any security issues.

But the pain of separation, the inability to meet in reality for many years, remains a source of suffering.

Luo Feng was determined to cultivate diligently, for the future of Earth rested on their shoulders.

But with the comparison, there was still a touch of bitterness.

Fortunately, he was of good character and did not feel jealous.

They greeted each other and then passed by.

Qin Hao's cultivation time is also very precious, so they won't waste too much time.

As they left the manor, Luo Feng remarked, "Babata, what do you think that light behind Master was?"

Babata said in confusion, "If we follow the ancient texts of Earth, then it should be called sexual light."

Some Bodhisattvas, Buddhas, and even Heavenly Emperors possess extraordinary wisdom and can condense their spiritual light, which is the light of Prajna (wisdom).

Luo Feng was somewhat surprised: "How do you know all this?"

Babata was speechless and complained, "I've reflected on what Qin Hao said last time, okay?"

He once said that the ancient books on Earth are very useful.

Of course I went to see it too.

After a pause, Luo Feng remarked that Babata was indeed very considerate.

He took the initiative to read these classic texts for his sake.

Babata said with annoyance, "You know what, these books are very useful. You should read them more."

After watching it these past few days, I found that it has also been quite beneficial to me.

I feel like my mental strength has been enhanced.

Luo Feng was taken aback: "Didn't they say that the mechanical race has no soul and is immune to illusion magic?"

Babata shook his head in confusion: "Logically speaking, that should be the case."

But I've also discovered these past few days that this might not actually be the case.

The strength of illusions may be affected if they reach a certain level.

Perhaps it's because of my mindset, or...?

Luo Feng was also a little confused. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Then let's write it down and ask Master next time."

Babata laughed, "Your master Qin Hao is only a cosmic-level being, how could he possibly know these things? The Machine Race..."

But at this point, Babata inexplicably felt that Qin Hao might already know.
Babata had always found the other party's situation very strange.

If Qin Hao is just a native of Earth, then the other party's performance is simply too extraordinary.

Although his mental state is only at the first level, it is not as good as Thor and Hong's second and third levels.

But its strength is extraordinary.

Their qualifications are terrifying.

He used to follow Hu Yanbo and saw countless geniuses, but none of them were as good as Qin Hao.

His genius has exceeded the limits of Babata's imagination.

Could it be that he is a genius who only appears once every tens of millions of epochs?

It might take hundreds of millions of epochs to produce one.

This kind of genius is even more brilliant than Lianluo and Koti, who have appeared in the history of humankind.

As long as they don't perish, they are destined to be among the higher echelons of the human race.

Over there, Zhang Daoli and Zhang Yuanbai also came to Qin Hao's side and asked him some questions about the Thunder Law.

They both cultivate lightning techniques, belonging to the same lineage.

They even practiced the Shangqing Sword Manual.

The discussions between us have already resolved many issues.

The questions asked of Qin Hao here have all been screened; they are quite difficult and representative.

As Qin Hao explained, he smiled and said, "The two of you are actually helping each other improve; you complement each other perfectly."

These two are several decades apart in age; in the past, on Earth, that would have been three generations.

But in the grand scheme of the universe, decades is just a generation, not even exceeding the age of a generation.

Just as the two were about to say something, Qin Hao's lips curled up slightly, and he said, "These people finally couldn't hold back anymore. I wonder how many inside contacts they exposed before they found out my route."

Logically speaking, very few people know the route the winner of the Cosmic Peak Genius Battle takes to Chaos City.

Even some of the higher-ups at Virtual Universe Company were unaware of it.

The universe is vast, and they all choose random routes, which may change at any time, just to avoid being discovered, tracked down by other elite groups, and framed.

However, this is not always the case.

Although there were no problems the first few times, unexpected situations do occasionally arise.

But this time, Qin Hao's situation is most likely not an accident.

Even if the other side infiltrated, they wouldn't dare to conduct a large-scale search anywhere.

Do you really think the human race is incapable?
Is the virtual universe just for show?
All actions are traceable.

The saying "a wild goose leaves its mark" is not just a saying.

Zhang Yuanbai was taken aback: "Master, has someone found your whereabouts?"

They were all traveling on a virtual universe company's spaceship, and were escorted by a large team sent by the other side.

The route is also random.

How could anyone possibly discover it?
There are many possibilities, and Qin Hao didn't say much more.

He said calmly, "Don't worry about me. I have a Venerable protecting me. At worst, I'll just enter the World Ring and be taken away by the Venerable. Even if there's a traitor, they wouldn't actually send a Venerable over. Aren't you afraid of death?"

This place is within the territory of the human race, and it is in the heartland.

Even the most powerful figures of the Zerg, or the Queen Mother, wouldn't dare to come here, right?
The "Mother Queen" here does not specifically refer to that supreme powerhouse, the Zerg Queen Nest at the True God Realm.

It refers to those at the Venerable Realm.

The Zerg hive is powerful and it's impossible for it to penetrate the heartland of the human race.

Once blocked, it's a death sentence.

"Alright, you don't need to worry about it. Just do what you're supposed to do."

Qin Hao continued to explain Zhang Daoli and Zhang Yuanbai's questions.

At the same time, he had also diverted some of his attention to the situation outside.

"Your Highness, our spaceship has been discovered. We might be in some danger. Should we use the Divine Kingdom teleportation to leave?"

An immortal asked.

Qin Hao laughed and said, "No need. Besides, the surrounding space is probably sealed off as well. You probably can't teleport out of here. They won't give you that chance."

The teleportation to the divine realm is indeed fast and covers extremely long distances.

The opponent's spatial blockade only increased the difficulty of teleporting to the divine kingdom, requiring more divine power and resources.

But the location of the divine kingdom will be exposed.

Moreover, if the other side had seized the opportunity to attack in that instant, they might not have been able to escape successfully.

Besides, why run away?
"I also prepared a big gift for them." (End of Chapter)
