My slightest action was the system's limit.

Chapter 269 Jiang Ye's Madness, the Smuggler! (Four-in-one, please follow and vote!)
Black Coast.

This area remained as tranquil as ever; the dark seawater was like stagnant water, without even a ripple.

But this day.

"Boom!"

The entire Black Coast suddenly trembled.

"Splash!" The stagnant black sea seemed to boil, churning up towering waves.

Suddenly.

A beam of light shot into the sky from the Black Sea, tearing through the heavens and releasing unparalleled energy.

"The Key to Civilization!"

"The key to civilization, the key to the second star ring, has been born."

"Go quickly!" One after another, figures appeared and rushed towards the black sea.

However, the moment they entered the Black Sea...

"Roar!"

A deafening roar erupted.

Immediately afterwards, an enormous shadow emerged from the sea and instantly swallowed the figures.

It happened so fast that no one else even had time to react.

"Splash!" The huge shadow sank into the water, creating a black wave hundreds of meters high.

This horrifying scene caused many people to stop in their tracks and stare in horror.

at the same time.

Inside a karst cave in a snow-capped mountain.

"Shh!"

A figure suddenly opened their eyes.

Accompanying this, an incredibly mysterious fluctuation erupted from his body.

"finally."

"Breakthrough in the True God Scripture." The figure slowly rose to his feet.

He was tall and handsome, with eyes that seemed to sparkle like stars, and his whole being exuded an unparalleled sharpness.

It was Jiang Ye, who had been in seclusion for dozens of days.

"More than half a month of arduous training."

"The True God Scripture has reached the threshold of the third breakthrough peak." Jiang Ye glanced at the panel.

【White Dragon True God Scripture (Part 1): Beginner's Guide (70%)】

Inside Jiangye's body.

There are seven vortexes of Qi flowing slowly through the well. These seven vortexes are connected by a link, and together they form a brand new Guanyuan acupoint.

This is the Guanyuan acupoint, truly belonging to the peak of the third breakthrough!

"With the birth of the seventh cyclone."

“My control over stellar energy is far greater than ever before.” Jiang Ye closed his eyes and sensed it: “The condensation of the seventh cyclone is not just an increase in quantity, but more like the construction of a complete structure.”

To put it bluntly.

Previously, Jiang Ye's Guanyuan acupoint was like a leaky bucket; no matter what method of cultivation he used, a lot of 'water' would be lost.

But after the seventh cyclone was formed.

The 'bucket' is finally complete, and it can make full use of every drop of 'water'.

The two represent fundamental changes!
"Now I am truly at the peak of the third breakthrough."

"but."

"My life level is no longer at the peak of the third breakthrough." A smile appeared on Jiang Ye's lips, and a vast life force burst forth from his body.

Wow~
A powerful aura, like a tidal wave, swept outwards, as vast and boundless as a boundless ocean.

This aura has completely surpassed the limits of the third breakthrough.

Nearly a fourth breakthrough!!

"One third-tier Class A opportunity, and more than twenty third-tier Class B superior opportunities." Jiang Ye thought to himself, "All of them have been used up."

"Finally, the goal has been achieved."

Originally, Jiang Ye wanted to save those second-class opportunities, since his drug resistance was too high and taking them would waste most of the drug's potency.

However, after the battle in northern Hebei, Jiang Ye changed his mind.

What use is it to accumulate countless top-tier opportunities if you don't live to take them with you?

Being strong yourself is the key.

Even if we waste a lot of medicinal properties, it's not a big deal.

"It's not a waste that it helped me reach the fourth level of breakthrough." Jiang Ye smiled.

Can be followed immediately.

“In this way, my cultivation method has fallen behind again.” Jiang Ye’s expression was strange.

Since his trip to the ancient star on the 7th, his cultivation techniques have never kept up with his own level of life.

This kind of thing.

This is probably a unique case across the entire Earth civilization.

Most people break through the barriers of cultivation techniques first, and then break through the level of life itself.

But what about Jiang Ye?

Since the third breakthrough, things have completely reversed.

However, no one else could do that.

Cultivation techniques focus on the Guanyuan acupoint, which is like the engine of a mecha for martial artists. No matter how many functions a mecha has, if the engine can't keep up, it will only become a hindrance.

Forcibly elevating one's level of life?

It will only damage the engine and render the entire mech unusable.

However, Jiang Ye cultivates the White Dragon True God Scripture, and his 'engine' is extremely powerful, which is why he dares to recklessly improve his life level in this way.

A series of thoughts flashed through Jiang Ye's mind.

suddenly.

"Buzz!"

A strong shockwave came from the outside, causing the entire cave to tremble slightly.

"Ok?"

“It’s the Black Coast.” Jiang Ye looked outside the cave: “It’s finally open?”

He quickly gathered his thoughts.

More than twenty days later, the Black Coast finally opened.

It's time to find the key to civilization.

"Buzz!"

With a thought, Jiang Ye's body was surrounded by wisps of starlight, which shone brightly, like twinkling stars.

Incomparably pure stellar energy!
These stellar energies seemed to have completely merged with Jiang Ye, truly becoming a part of him, and he could control them at will.

This is the effect of the True God Scripture reaching the peak of the third breakthrough.

Each wisp of star energy is powerful enough to achieve several times the effect of the previous one.

"kill!"

Jiang Ye transformed into a stream of light, like a dazzling star, and instantly burst out of the snow mountain cave.

They sped off toward the Black Coast.

This snow-capped mountain is very close to the Black Coast, only a few dozen miles away.

In just over ten seconds, Jiang Ye roared close to the surging black sea.

"Knowledgeable to the smallest detail".

Jiang Ye's eyes flashed, and he looked ahead.

Around the Black Coast, dazzling lights shimmered, almost all representing top-tier opportunities.

At this moment, all those superior opportunities have ripened.

"Boom! Boom!"

"Boom!" A series of intense fighting sounds rang out.

Many powerful beings from other races are making their moves, vying for those top-tier opportunities.

Jiang Ye glanced at it briefly before looking away.

A superior opportunity?
Since breaking through to the fourth level, such opportunities have had almost no effect on him.

If you ingest it, 99% of the medicinal properties will be wasted.

Only opportunities of Tier 3 or higher (Grade A) can have an effect on Jiang Ye.

“Over there.” Jiang Ye looked towards the Black Sea.

There, a bright, dazzling light shone.

Beneath the Black Sea, a massive shadow looms, obscured by the dazzling light, making it difficult to discern.

Jiang Ye stopped outside the Black Coast and observed for a moment.

"A huge shadow?"

"Could it be something like a guardian spirit beast?" Jiang Ye pondered for a moment.

Only a few seconds.

Jiang Ye moved again and decisively flew towards the Black Sea.

Since we're already here, why should we be timid and hesitant?
"Look, someone is heading towards the Black Sea again."

Will he be swallowed by that shadow?

"He's going in." The other powerful alien beings all looked towards the Black Sea.

The reason these powerful alien races did not enter the Black Sea to compete is...

Because they had previously seen the terrifying shadow lurking beneath the sea.

Even the peak experts at the third breakthrough stage were instantly devoured.

Jiang Ye's forceful intrusion into the Black Sea immediately attracted everyone's attention.

Under the watchful eyes of hundreds of powerful alien races, Jiang Ye flew towards the Black Sea at full speed, disappearing into the depths of the sea in just a few seconds.

at this time.

"Roar!"

A roar rang out, and then a huge shadow, thousands of meters long, suddenly leaped out of the sea.

Open your bloody mouth.

"die!"

Jiang Ye seemed to have anticipated this. He gripped his spear tightly and shot into the sky like lightning, a dazzling spear light descending from the heavens.

"Boom!" The spear, formed from the convergence of endless star energy, crashed down like a blazing sun.

moment!

It crashed onto that enormous shadow.

"Pfft!" The spear's edge tore through flesh and pierced down like a rainbow piercing the sun.

"Roar!" A shrill, angry roar rang out.

Only then did everyone realize that the enormous shadow was actually a sea monster resembling a mosasaur, with an astonishingly large size.

It is not a physical entity.

Instead, it is formed from some kind of mysterious energy, similar to a 'guardian spirit beast,' exuding a terrifying life force.

"A guardian spirit beast at the near-fourth breakthrough level?"

"This kind of aura is not far from the fourth level of breakthrough."

"No wonder even those at the peak of the third breakthrough perished here."

"Even if that guy doesn't die, he'll most likely be seriously injured. Then we can go and pick up the scraps."

"Let's see if he can take down that guardian spirit beast." Hundreds of alien powerhouses were all making calculations in their minds.

The mantis stalks the cicada, but the oriole follows behind!

At this moment, they are the 'yellow bird'.

Under the watchful eyes of hundreds of people.

"boom!"

"Boom!" "Boom!" Jiang Ye erupted, his spear unleashing unparalleled power, drawing upon endless star energy, and piercing towards the thousands of meters long azure dragon.

Boom!

There was a loud bang.

A huge, gaping hole appeared on the Mosasaurus's body, but no blood flowed out.

next moment.

"Roar~!" The guardian mosasaur went completely berserk. With a roar, it opened its blood-red maw and a jet-black beam of light suddenly shot out.

This jet-black beam of light contained terrifying power.

"Tear~" The beam of light pierced through the void, as if even the air itself was being torn apart.

"kill!"

Jiang Ye also erupted completely, brandishing his spear and unleashing a series of spear techniques.

One shot!
Endless, terrifying gun shadows appeared, enveloping the dark beam of light.

"Oh!"

The dark beam of light was quickly dissolved, and in the blink of an eye, it disintegrated.

"Die." Jiang Ye did not hesitate at all. His whole body radiated a dazzling light, and he shot straight toward the guardian dragon.

In the blink of an eye, his energy and spirit had reached their peak.

Endless drive!
Endless spear light!
At this moment, Jiang Ye seemed to transform into a blazing sun.

Holding a long spear, filled with ferocious killing intent, he thrust it into the gaping maw of the mosasaur.

"Boom!!"

A burst of intense light suddenly erupted from the gaping maw of that mosasaur.

The light traveled down its throat, chest, and abdomen, as dazzling as a small sun, and swept across quickly.

"call out!"

Finally, Jiang Ye's figure burst out from the tail of the Mosasaurus.

Behind him, the mosasaur remained frozen in mid-air, as if time had stood still.

next moment.

"Boom!!" The entire mosasaur exploded instantly, with countless pieces of flesh flying everywhere, turning into countless points of light.

The near-fourth-stage guardian spirit beast is dead!
"this?!"

"Resolved so quickly?"

"His strength." Hundreds of alien powerhouses who were secretly observing were all dumbfounded.

They were all shocked by the strength that Jiang Ye had displayed.

Everything that just happened can be described slowly.

In fact, from the moment Jiang Ye entered the Black Sea to the moment he dealt with the near-fourth-level guardian spirit beast, it took less than five seconds.

Five seconds to solve the near-four-fold breakthrough!
Such strength caused the powerful alien warriors present to tremble.

"Ridiculous, you think we could have gotten a bargain?"

"This person is too strong. Once we make a move, I am no match for him."

"Trying to pick up a bargain? Let's not go and give away our lives." These powerful alien warriors completely gave up on the idea of ​​'picking up a bargain'.

They are all geniuses from civilizations at levels 0.7-0.9.

Most of them are only at the level of Lawson and Mina, and are no match for Jiang Ye at all.

"Near-fourth breakthrough?"

"This guardian spirit beast is indeed troublesome," Jiang Ye thought to himself. "It's only slightly weaker than Ji Bei's."

"If it were me in the past, I'm afraid it would have taken me a lot more effort."

fortunately!

Jiang Ye today is a completely different person from what he used to be.

If he were to encounter an opponent of Jibei's caliber again, he was confident he could easily defeat them.

"The key to civilization".

Jiang Ye looked ahead.

After dealing with the guardian spirit beast, the Black Sea below was finally fully visible.

Beneath the dark surface of the sea, a blurry yet enormous outline could be seen, resembling an underwater palace suspended in the water.

"An underwater palace?" Jiang Ye's eyes flashed.

Whoosh!
Without much hesitation, he was enveloped in star energy and entered the Black Sea.

Whoosh~ We've descended below the sea surface.

The seawater was pitch black, with almost zero visibility.

Fortunately, Jiang Ye's eyesight and perception are now incredibly sharp, and he can see the blurry outline of the palace through the dark seawater.

"Whoosh!" Jiang Ye moved like lightning.

Only a few seconds.

He then approached the underwater palace and finally saw its entirety.

This is a magnificent palace, gleaming with a grayish-white metallic sheen, standing hundreds of meters tall, majestically suspended in the air.

The entire palace is suspended in the middle of the sea without any pillars, yet it is not affected by the waves of the sea, which is extremely mysterious.

"The door." Jiang Ye looked over.

The gates of the greyish-white palace were open.

"Whoosh!" Jiang Ye didn't hesitate and quickly slipped through the door.

Upon entering, one finds an empty hall.

Nothing.

Where is the treasure?

"Where is the key to civilization?" Jiang Ye looked around, feeling somewhat bewildered.

He spent a lot of effort killing the near-fourth-level guardian spirit beast and then dived into the Black Sea.

Is this the result?

Just as Jiang Ye was feeling somewhat bewildered.

"Congratulations." A hoarse voice suddenly rang out in the hall.

Wow~
Countless rays of light converged, condensing into a phantom image. This phantom image wore a black robe, and its face was obscured.

Although it was an illusion, an extremely powerful aura emanated from it, almost like a real person.

Jiang Ye was shocked. The other party did not actually release any aura, but the invisible aura that came through the phantom was enough to make him feel suffocated.

This.

It was an existence far beyond any of the powerful beings he had ever seen, an unimaginable existence.

“I am the ‘Overseer’ of the Star Sea,” said the black-robed phantom.

"Senior," Jiang Ye said, bowing respectfully.

The black-robed phantom did not speak, but simply raised its hand and waved.

"Buzz!" The void rippled.

A radiant treasure appeared and floated towards Jiang Ye.

Jiang Ye quickly reached out and took it.

"The key to civilization?"

"It really is a key." Jiang Ye was extremely surprised.

"You are the first person in Zone 015 to obtain the Key to Civilization," the black-robed phantom said slowly. "The first?" Jiang Ye was taken aback. "Isn't Zone 015 home to more than one Key to Civilization?"

"Of course not."

“Area 015 contains a total of 50 Civilization Keys,” the black-robed phantom said. “The Black Coast is just one of them.”

Jiang Ye suddenly realized.

No wonder only a few hundred aliens have appeared on the Black Coast.

He had previously thought that only these people remained in the entire 015 area, but now it seems that this is not the case.

"What are the benefits of being the first to obtain the Civilization Key?" Jiang Ye asked curiously.

What he cares about most is the benefits.

"The first person to obtain the Civilization Key will be teleported to the most fertile region of the second star ring," the black-robed phantom said with a smile.

Jiang Ye was surprised to hear this. "The most abundant?"
Wouldn't that mean there are top-tier opportunities everywhere?

Jiang Ye couldn't help but feel a sense of anticipation.

But soon.

"So, does that mean I'll encounter the strongest individuals from other regions in the Second Star Ring?" Jiang Ye asked curiously.

"not necessarily."

The black-robed phantom shook its head and said, "The first to obtain the key to civilization is not necessarily the strongest."

"Because some civilization keys are not protected by powerful guardian spirits, they are not difficult to obtain."

“Some of those who are slightly weaker can also obtain the first Civilization Key,” the black-robed phantom said.

Jiang Ye suddenly realized.

"Looks like I'm not so lucky," Jiang Ye laughed. "Did I choose the most difficult one?"

"Yes."

"You are also the strongest in this 015 area," the black-robed phantom said with a smile. "Therefore, you will also receive an additional reward of a Tier 3 Class A opportunity."

talking.

He waved again.

"Buzz!" The void shifted, and a radiant treasure appeared.

It drifted into Jiang Ye's hand.

"Thank you so much, senior!" Jiang Ye was overjoyed.

Tier 3, Class A.

Even though it's only a low-grade Tier 3 armor opportunity, it's still incredibly precious.

Even ten top-tier opportunities cannot compare to one top-tier opportunity; they are not even in the same league.

Take drug resistance as an example.

Jiang Ye's resistance to the third-order Class B drug is almost 100%.

But what about the chance of getting a Tier 3 Class A drug? The drug resistance is almost zero.

Of course, if he takes too many top-grade opportunities, his drug resistance will gradually increase; this is true for all spiritual treasures.

Only the Enlightenment Jade, a divine object of heaven and earth, is free from drug resistance.

"All right."

"You have received the reward for the first star ring. Head to the second star ring as soon as possible," the black-robed phantom reminded him. "To obtain the Civilization Key for the third star ring, you will need to undergo several trials."

"Before that, improve yourself as much as possible."

After the black-robed phantom finished speaking, its form slowly dissipated.

"Does going to the Third Star Ring also require finding the Key to Civilization?"

"And there will be many more trials?" Jiang Ye was slightly taken aback, but quickly understood.

Didn't think much about it.

The third star ring? Not a long way off.

We haven't even been to the second star ring yet.

According to what the black-robed phantom said, Jiang Ye will be teleported to the most fertile area of ​​the second star ring.

If that's the case, then Jiang Ye's gains in the second star ring will likely far exceed those of the past.

"Now, I am almost at the fourth level of breakthrough."

"I'm only one step away from the fourth breakthrough." Jiang Ye thought to himself, "Can I break through to the fourth breakthrough directly within this Star Sea?"

Thinking of this, Jiang Ye suddenly felt a pang of emotion.

It feels like just yesterday that we broke through three barriers.

Now, four defeats are in sight?

"Geniuses from advanced civilizations, given enough opportunity..."

"I'm afraid they're just like me, breaking through realms as easily as drinking water," Jiang Ye sighed inwardly.

Such a rare and precious opportunity is truly rare.
The entire Blue Star civilization has only three top-tier opportunities.

Moreover, they are all open at specific times and to specific realms.

Such a rapid acquisition of several top-tier opportunities as Jiang Ye's is probably unprecedented in the entire history of Earth's civilization.

But for advanced civilizations, this might not be anything unusual.

"No wonder Bai Gui said that."

"For the vast universe, even the Nine Breakthroughs are just the beginning." Jiang Ye sighed inwardly, "Only by becoming a god can one truly embark on the path of the stars."

At this moment, Jiang Ye suddenly had a more long-term goal.

Become a god!

The vast universe, the boundless starry sky.

It would be a great pity to be born into this world and not venture into the starry sky to clash with other geniuses.

A series of thoughts flashed through my mind.

While pondering, Jiang Ye had already set off, rushing out of the palace.

Just seconds later.

"Whoosh!" A streak of light shot out from the dark sea surface at an astonishing speed.

"It's him."

"Out."

"He obtained the key to civilization?" Hundreds of alien races stood on the shore.

Greed and murderous intent flashed in the eyes of many.

However, seemingly due to Jiang Ye's strength, they all kept it well hidden.

"There are still so many alien races?"

"Go to hell, all of you." A cold glint flashed in Jiang Ye's eyes. Without another word, he drew his gun and attacked.

There is no need to be merciful to foreigners.

After all, the rules have already stated that the higher the bounty, the richer the rewards after entering the 'temple'.

Moreover, these alien races standing on the shore already harbored murderous intent towards him.

"kill!"

A long spear suddenly thrust out, carrying endless starlight, tearing through the sky and sweeping directly towards the many alien powerhouses on the Black Coast.

"not good."

"Rewind."

"Damn it, we didn't provoke you!" The alien powerhouses were both shocked and furious, and they all retreated, but many of them directly unleashed their ultimate moves.

Clearly, they were all prepared; if Jiang Ye showed any signs of weakness, these alien races would immediately swarm him.

Jiang Ye's eyes were icy cold; he had already sensed the killing intent, so there was no need for him to say anything more.

Kill!
The law of the jungle, where the strong prey on the weak, is an eternal and unchanging principle.

"Kill!" Jiang Ye, surrounded by starlight, transformed into a god of death and charged directly into the crowd.

puff!puff!
puff!

The spear swept across!

With Jiang Ye's current strength, even a casual strike would be devastating to these alien powerhouses.

A massacre with no suspense whatsoever.

Just ten seconds later.

Jiang Ye stood in mid-air, holding a long spear, the entire Black Coast desolate.

Hundreds of powerful alien warriors were slaughtered!

"Bounty amount." Jiang Ye opened the ranking projection.

[Fourth Place: Jiang Ye, Bounty: 268]

"They've actually dropped to fourth place?"

"It seems the fighting in other regions is quite fierce." Jiang Ye pondered for a moment: "Many people will indeed die fighting for the key to civilization."

Thinking about this, Jiang Ye suddenly felt a little strange.

"The reward for entering the temple is determined based on the bounty amount."

"Isn't this encouraging everyone to kill each other?" Jiang Ye frowned to himself. "If this continues, most of the geniuses in civilizations below level one will probably be wiped out."

Civilizations like the Blue Star civilization, which are at level 0.7.

Those who can enter the Star Sea must be top-tier Daoist geniuses; the death of even one of them would be a tremendous loss.

According to the rules of the Star Sea.

These kinds of people will probably all die out.

"Perhaps, to a higher civilization, the life of a genius from a lower civilization is not even a matter of life or death." Jiang Ye shook his head secretly.

As he pondered...

"Wow!"

A jumble of memories suddenly flooded Jiang Ye's mind.

"Is it a realization of a higher realm?" Jiang Ye's eyes flickered slightly.

[Kill and Plunder: You will steal a small amount of the cultivation insights from the person you kill.]

moment.

The cultivation insights of the hundreds of alien powerhouses killed by Jiang Ye, after being condensed, all entered Jiang Ye's mind.

Insights into knife techniques, sword techniques, fist techniques, and spear techniques. A complex and diverse collection.

At first, Jiang Ye felt it was incredibly chaotic.

But as he calmed down...

Savor it patiently.

"These insights."

"Perhaps it will also be of some help to my marksmanship training?" Jiang Ye suddenly had a flash of inspiration.

Whether it's knife skills, sword skills, or spear skills, they all have many things in common.

Jiang Ye's two creations deepened his understanding of these principles.

"If you accumulate enough insights."

"Could my Luoshen Spear possibly be improved even further?" Jiang Ye's heart stirred.

Unknowingly.

He seemed to have found a path he had never imagined.

"These are the ones we've killed so far."

“They are all just weaker geniuses.” Jiang Ye reflected, “These insights are all mixed and not pure.”

"but"

"If I kill a genius from a Level 1 civilization or above, will I gain a higher level of cultivation insights?"

"At that time, it might be of great help to my Luoshen Spear?" Jiang Ye's eyes grew brighter and brighter.

Who says the rules of this Starbound Sea are bad?

These rules are great.

It's absolutely fantastic!!

"kill!"

"A genius from a first-level civilization?" Jiang Ye thought to himself, "I hope to encounter one after entering the second star ring."

He hesitated no more.

"Whoosh!" Jiang Ye soared into the sky, transforming into a streak of light, and flew towards the vast天地 (heaven and earth).

destination.

High in the heavens, at the entrance to the second star ring!
Tens of seconds later.

Having passed through layers of clouds and mist, Jiang Ye had already flown high into the sky.

What illuminated the vast earth was not the sun, but an enormous vortex, which shone with dazzling light.

"The entrance to the second star ring." Jiang Ye flew to the front of the vortex.

He quickly felt a sense of rejection.

"Hmm?" Jiang Ye was slightly taken aback.

This feeling of rejection was very similar to the discomfort he felt when he first set foot on the ancient planet No. 7.

Even more intense.

One can imagine that if one were to force one into the vortex, one would inevitably encounter an even stronger sense of rejection, and might even faint on the spot.

"So that's the purpose of the key to civilization." Jiang Ye suddenly realized and was about to take out the key.

But suddenly.

"Om~"

That discomfort suddenly vanished completely.

"Huh?" Jiang Ye was confused.

He hasn't even produced the key to civilization yet, what's going on?

Could this vortex sense the contents of his storage space?

"Something's not right." Jiang Ye suddenly realized something and quickly glanced at the system panel.

An effect is activated.

[Smugglers]

[Terrain Adaptation: When traversing other worlds, movement is not hindered by the environment, and a certain degree of resistance is developed to the unfamiliar environment.]

"this?"

"Could it be?" Jiang Ye asked incredulously, "that this ability negates the repulsion from the other world?"

If that's really the case, wouldn't that mean...
Even if he didn't obtain the key to civilization, could he still enter the second star ring?

"Give it a try." Jiang Ye didn't take out the key.

He looked at the vortex in front of him.

"Whoosh!" It quickly darted inside.

As Jiang Ye entered the vortex.

The Starbound Sea, a mysterious space.

Countless projected images appeared, showing battle scenes from various regions of the First Star Ring. There were hundreds of thousands of such images.

In front of the projection.

There were two mysterious figures, both dressed in black robes, one tall and one short, their faces obscured.

The two stood there, emanating no aura whatsoever.

But the surrounding void shifted and distorted, as if avoiding their presence.

"The selection process for the first star ring is about to conclude."

"Among these people," the tall man in black robes said slowly, "only Boson, Yan Yi, and Tian Chenyu are truly outstanding."

If Jiang Ye were here, he would have noticed.

This tall man in black robes was the 'observer' he had encountered earlier.

"Ah."

"I didn't see any outstanding geniuses among this group," the short, black-robed man said calmly.

"but."

"Bosen and Yan Yi are considered quite good even in a Level 1 civilization," the short man said calmly. "We cannot judge them by the standards of a Level 2 civilization."

“Indeed.” The tall man in black robes nodded slightly.

suddenly.

"Ok?"

"What's that?" The tall man in black robes suddenly looked at a certain projected image.

Although there were hundreds of thousands of projections in front of them.

But for him, it only takes a moment to capture all the information in these images.

"Eno?"

"This Jiang Ye has quite the nerve," the tall man in black robes laughed. "He actually dares to try and force his way into the second star ring without even taking out the Civilization Key."

"He'll learn his lesson soon enough," the short, black-robed man said calmly.

Just the next second.

In the projected image, the young man named 'Jiang Ye' has already set foot on a new piece of land.

Neither the tall nor the short man said anything.

It seemed to be quietly waiting for the moment when Jiang Ye would faint.

Time passed by minute by minute.

In the projection, 'Jiang Ye' looked around in confusion, took a short while to adjust, and then soared into the sky.

It flew into the sky.

"."

Silence fell over the mysterious space.

Two men in black robes, one tall and one short, waited for more than ten seconds, but still did not see the scene they expected.

half an hour.

"Could it be the second star ring that has already sensed the key to civilization?" the tall man in black robes asked.

"Yes, that should be the reason." The short man in black robes nodded.

Just as the two found a reason to relax.

suddenly.

"Ok?"

"Why is this kid flying straight towards the entrance of the third star ring?" The tall man in black robes' eyes flickered. "What's he planning to do?"

"Don't speak." The short man in black robes also stared intently at the projected image, afraid of missing a single frame.

at the same time.

Second star ring, region 3001.

"Whoosh!"

Jiang Ye sped along, like a rocket soaring into the sky.

You have entered the second star ring, area 3001.

Find the 'Key to Civilization' scattered in area 3001 and proceed to the entrance of the third star ring.

Your remaining time: 99 days, 23 hours, and 59 seconds.

"Searching for the key to civilization?"

"No." Jiang Ye shook his head secretly.

He has conceived a bold idea.

Now that we have the ability to adapt to different terrains, why stay in the second star ring?
Head straight to the Third Star Ring!!!
