Infinite Fighting

September 27th.

Origin Star, the Supreme Capital.

Zhang Ji's consciousness was immersed within the [Limited Boundary] space.

Inside, numerous fighting crystals floated, resembling countless stars.

These are the second (mythical) level combat crystals he plans to build.

"Synthesis! Synthesis! Synthesis!"

Zhang Ji, who was already very familiar with the process, did not hesitate for long and quickly carried out the synthesis one after another.

Soon, only ten (legendary) fighting crystals remained.

Zhang Ji performed the final synthesis.

The red light shone brightly, gradually transforming into orange fighting crystals.

[Note: Successfully synthesized 1 "Mystic Yang Divine Technique" (Mythical) Fighting Skill Crystal.]

"It's done!"

When Zhang Ji saw this name, he knew he was destined for success.

With a thought, the crystals merged into the body.

Immediately, Zhang Ji clearly perceived all those changes.

Within his inner world, a star radiating boundless light and heat rose slowly, refining all things and transforming them into infinite true yang energy.

The temperature of this radiant sun was far greater than that of the Xuan Yang Divine Stone.

Zhang Ji drew inspiration from its principles, but forged a path that went even further.

Zhang Ji believes that the attribute strength boosted by this single fighting crystal is comparable to that of a [SSS-level third stage] being.

However, its true significance lies in perfecting Zhang Ji's world system.

Previously, there were no stars in the internal world. Now that there are stars, its internal energy is more abundant, and the circulation has become more orderly.

Zhang Ji's overall strength has more than doubled.

If Zhang Ji were to face the Black Cloud Venerable again, he wouldn't need to summon the Azure Sky Pearl; he could simply burn the Venerable Black Cloud to death with his fist, which was imbued with the power of the world and the might of the Xuan Yang.

This strength is enough to make a big impact in the current star system.

At this point, Zhang Ji felt increasingly calm.

He began preparing to refine the Black Glow Stone to create his third (Mythical) Fighting Crystal.

After the Origin Civilization swallowed the Namen Civilization, massive amounts of resources were transmitted back from the outside every day.

Despite its shortcomings, the Namon civilization still possessed a considerable amount of resources.

The original civilization can be said to have eaten its fill.

The Holy King Council began preparing to conduct business with foreign entities, purchasing high-level resources, materials, and technologies.

After learning about the information disclosed by the Origin Civilization, many Level 1 and Level 2 civilizations have expressed interest in doing business with the Origin Civilization and want to purchase their special resources.

The matter was unanimously approved, and Origin Star officially began interstellar trade, stepping into this sea of ​​stars and embarking on its journey.

A travel spaceship called the "Xianjing," originating from the Type III civilization, the Yage civilization, is navigating the universe.

Their next destination is the transit planet Beni.

There, there stands a supergiant gate for the construction of international civilization.

Only by passing through that stargate can one successfully cross a distance of tens of thousands of light-years and reach another sea of ​​stars.

Zhang Ji was also on this spaceship.

It is easy for tourists to board the ship.

As long as you can afford it, they won't check your background or anything.

Of course, it's not easy to find out.

As for what kind of currency it is?
In this vast interstellar sea, the currency of the Interstellar Civilization, a Level 5 civilization, is almost universally accepted.

The process of exchanging currency is not complicated. There are many currencies in circulation in the Interstellar Civilization, and you can simply exchange them with other civilizations for resources.

Zhang Ji sat in a large travel cabin that could accommodate three of his own, holding a cup of highly concentrated energy drink in his hand. Surrounded by projected images of the outside world, he was contemplating the destination of his trip.

A war-torn area located on the shore of Mibebe Star.

That war-torn area has a diameter of 1.7 million light-years.

Within the entire void, no stars remain, only countless meteorite belts.

In current theories of civilization, this is said to be a void created when a Level 6 civilization experimented with a certain weapon.

But in reality, according to Zhang Ji's information, this was a battlefield of civilizations from the ancient past.

That happened billions of years ago.

Dozens of level four civilizations and two level five civilizations fought here for a (Zhenyuan) level spacetime artifact. In the end, the artifact exploded, leaving this void.

In the player's storyline, an archaeologist from an interstellar civilization pays the player to become a bodyguard to explore and find fragments of that item.

The archaeologist did indeed know some things and successfully located the object in the alternate dimension.

In fact, the (Zhenyuan) spacetime creation did not explode; it was merely activated by energy once.

After the energy was activated, a special miniature universe was created.

Some civilizations also emerged within that miniature universe.

And that treasure is among them.

According to the original storyline, after the item is found, it will release energy due to the archaeologist's mistake and then disappear into the void.

Players and archaeologists witnessed its power, and then it was gone forever.

Zhang Ji thought this was most likely a plot device.

This is because the [Interstellar Journey] version does not have (Ultimate Source) level items and skills; those are for the next version, [The Eye of the Ancient Gods].

The purpose of revealing it in advance is simply to give players an impression.

However, Zhang Ji is definitely not affected by the plot now.

After he found that thing, he must have carefully kept it and preserved it immediately.

That dungeon is a bit tricky.

Due to spacetime distortion and rule restrictions, players are reduced in dimensionality and their strength is limited.

To put it simply, the laws of cosmic physics are different, the energy systems are not interchangeable, skills are unusable, and attack power is greatly reduced. If Zhang Ji went in, he would most likely only be able to use attacks at a C-level.

Fortunately, it doesn't affect the thickness of the health bar or the defense.

With Zhang Ji's current physique, no attack method inside could break through his defenses.

Such rules only affect outward output, not the internal individual system. The microcosm of a living being has its own rules. If it is strong enough to completely resist external rules, it can even be unrestricted.

After pondering for a while, Zhang Ji's consciousness sank into his body and looked at the newly formed Xuan Yang star.

One of the black stones was being refined by high temperatures, gradually transforming into the third star that Zhang Ji desperately needed.

Its core lies in the information of deathly silence and the rules of creation.

If Zhang Ji succeeds in mastering it, he will have even greater control over matter.

He thought that if he could achieve the ultimate control over matter, he would be able to truly enter the K-level spacetime domain.

After his previous trip to the Nuwa Mystic Realm, Zhang Ji had a feeling that the so-called K-level was the sublimation of information.

This kind of advancement should not be merely a matter of simply piling up quantities.

Or rather, the way they are stacked is different.

A qualitative change is needed.

Simply piling up quantity will only result in a bloated, unwieldy nest, just like the mother nest.

The expansion of the spatiotemporal domain will inevitably lead to a further qualitative change.

That is, spatiotemporal information!
Zhang Ji has made great strides in the material realm, but he still doesn't know much about the realm of spacetime information.

I can only rely on my intuition and try to see if this path will work.

While they were thinking, the spaceship suddenly came to a stop.

Immediately afterwards, a voice came from the radio.

【Dear passengers, we have been attacked by space pirates, but don't worry, we have extensive experience in handling such incidents】

"Space pirates!"

Zhang Ji suddenly realized.

There are many people in the universe who do this kind of work.

They basically shoot once and run away.

Taking advantage of the vastness of the starry sea, the piracy industry flourished.

Of course, they themselves are knowledgeable in the field.

It's very clear who you can mess with and who you can't.

No one dared to touch the merchant ships of those advanced civilizations. Moreover, when they robbed them, they would only collect a toll and then let the people go. They rarely committed murder and robbery. They would only strike without hesitation when facing the spaceships of lower civilizations.

With a slight thought, Zhang Ji took in the surrounding situation.

He suddenly realized that this time things might not be as he had imagined.

Because the other party's purpose was not to rob, but to find someone.

Zhang Ji got up, left his seat, and headed straight for the cargo hold.

Midway through the journey, a Yagman manager, who was over two meters tall, said to Zhang Jidao, "Guest, that's the cargo hold. If you need to relieve yourself, please go over there."

Zhang Ji glanced at him, and he instantly changed his attitude.

"Please come in, guest."

He even opened the cargo hold door for Zhang Ji.

Zhang Ji entered the room, which was very spacious and filled with various resources, including ores, manufactured toys, furniture, and even living creatures.

In the laws of the Yage civilization, the transportation of living beings via passenger spaceships is strictly prohibited.

This is clearly smuggling.

However, it's an unspoken rule.

After walking a distance, Zhang Ji stopped in front of a creature covered in black and white fur that looked like a sphere.

“Augustine?” Zhang Ji asked.

A large blue eye peeked out from the sphere and looked at Zhang Ji, saying, "Persfanie and I are mutually in love, so this can't be blamed solely on me, right? Dude, are you a bounty hunter too? How much did Mon'en pay you to capture me?"

"The wanted poster says it's worth 10 billion," Zhang Ji said.

The creature covered in black and white fur in front of you is an interstellar wanderer, one of the special story characters that players can encounter in the game.

He is also an SSS-level controller.

A destroyed civilization, the remnants of the Cherylok civilization.

Having mastered the ability to reconstruct one's physical body, one can transform into almost any appearance.

Of course, these are not important.

Importantly, he was a womanizer by nature and accepted all comers without any dietary restrictions. He would sleep with any intelligent being and didn't care much about gender.

It can be described as a tragic wind of the interstellar age.

He was wanted this time because he had fallen for the youngest daughter of a controller named Meng En within the fourth-level civilization, Ge Yun Civilization.

Then he was beaten to a pulp on the spot and barely managed to escape.

Now that Meng En has issued an arrest warrant, both the legitimate and criminal worlds are looking for him.

“Only 10 billion? His family is indeed not wealthy. The other guy I was wanted before had a minimum of 80 billion!” Augustine said.

He wasn't very panicked.

If other methods don't work, he's very good at escaping.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have survived for so long, leaving the starry sky in ruins.

He clearly considered Zhang Ji and the pirates outside to be part of the same group.

Given the level of those pirates, they certainly wouldn't be able to control Augustine.

"I think you need to be a little nervous."

Zhang Ji smiled slightly and revealed a portion of his aura.

For a moment, Augustine was stunned. (End of Chapter)
