Swallowing the Stars: The Rise of Emperor Wei

The black hole that appeared beside the Wind and Thunder Canyon Mountains attracted a large number of adventurers.

Among the crowd was a small team entirely dressed in black, consisting of nine Rank 9 Eternal Stars and one Rank 2 Eternal Star.

"Your Highness," a bodyguard said respectfully.

"Interesting, very interesting." The fair-skinned youth, holding a battle sword, gazed at the black hole and smiled. "A world within a world? The cost of building one world is already high enough! To build another world within one world is ten times more difficult! A world lord... who would be willing to spend such a huge price to build a world within a world, must have some real treasure hidden within it."

"I just came to take an exam, and this happened." The young man smiled. "Luck! That's just luck!"

"Your Highness has always been very lucky," the bodyguard in black complimented.

At this moment, adventurers had already begun to pass through the black hole.

"quick!"

"The entrance to the realm within a realm is safe; we can go in."

"Brothers from Baihulou, hurry up and follow!"

The adventurers of the Hengxing star went crazy, and Gao Shengluofeng's team and He Ruo's team followed the crowd and quickly passed through the black hole.

"Is this the realm within a realm?" Luo Feng looked around. It was nighttime inside the realm within a realm, with faint rays of light drifting down, though the naked eye could not see very far.

"Brother Gao Sheng, wait a moment, I'll report this to the organization," He Ruo said.

"Report it to the organization?"

Luo Feng looked at He Ruo, and Hong and Lei Shen were also surprised.

"I also want to report this to my family," Gao Sheng added.

Gao Sheng connects to the virtual universe, appears at the Nine Star Bay Villa, and sends a call request to the clan leader.

Simply making a call doesn't require entering the virtual universe; it can be done by connecting to a quantum computer.

But for privacy, one must enter the virtual universe.

Soon, Patriarch Pero Wedi appeared on the screen.

"Gao Sheng, I remember you went to take the trainee mercenary assessment. Did you come out? Or did you run into trouble?" Pero asked with a smile. He had been keeping track of Gao Sheng's training progress over the past few months.

With Gao Sheng's financial resources, what trouble could a trainee mercenary assessment possibly cause? Pero thought that Gao Sheng had already become a trainee mercenary and was reporting to him.

Gao Sheng respectfully said, "Clan leader, it's not that. It's that a realm within a realm has appeared within that Thunder World. Currently, over 20,000 Constant Star level examinees have already poured in. Look!"

Gao Sheng directly forwarded the results of the photo capture by the optical computer to the virtual universe.

After listening to Gao Sheng's account, Pero thought for a while and said, "Gao Sheng, this realm within a realm was built by the Thunder Realm Lord. The Thunder Realm Lord, Kabu, was extremely wealthy, but after his death, no one knew where his wealth and treasures went. So it's very likely that they are hidden inside this realm within a realm."

"You and your team should go and excavate the cosmic crystals. Don't try to get your hands on any treasures. This realm within a realm will soon gather a large number of powerful individuals from the entire Black Dragon Mountain Starfield. Cosmic-level beings, domain lords, and even realm lords will all be going in. When that happens, remember not to clash with the powerful individuals. Under the watchful eyes of everyone, they won't try to steal the small spoils of you little star-level beings."

"Understood," Gao Sheng replied.

"Okay, be careful." Pero didn't say anything about leaving as soon as possible to ensure safety. If Gao Sheng backed down under these circumstances, then there was no point in training him. The treasure of the Realm Within a Realm was something that even Pero himself would have to fight for.

Canglan Star, Thunder City, the headquarters of the Cosmic Mercenary Alliance.

In the technologically advanced lobby, a huge monitoring screen displays the situation at the entrance to the Thunder World in one corner, while a large amount of data is presented in the main area.

"Envoy, an anomaly has occurred within the Thunder World; an entrance to another world has appeared."

The speaker was a man wearing the uniform of the Space Mercenary Alliance.

The person looking at the screen was a woman with short silver hair, wearing silver armor, whose beautiful face was extremely cold and expressionless.

Both of them wore the Blood Sea Medal on their chests; on the Blood Sea were two planets.

"A world within a world?"

"Envoy, the creator of the Thunder World, Lord Kabu, was extremely wealthy in his lifetime," the man said. "His wealth and treasures disappeared after his death. It seems that they are likely hidden in this world within a world. The appearance of this world within a world will inevitably attract a large number of powerful figures from the Black Dragon Mountain Star Region. In that case, it will be difficult for this round of trainee mercenary assessments to proceed normally."

"The legacy of a realm lord? The powerful figures of the Black Dragon Mountain Starfield?" A hint of disdain flashed in the silver-haired beauty's eyes. "They also want to challenge the regulations of the Cosmic Mercenary Alliance?"

-----------------

Within a realm, Gao Sheng opened his eyes, and Luo Feng and the others all looked at him.

At this moment, He Ruo, who was reporting the message on the virtual universe network, also opened her eyes and looked at the four people with a slight apology: "Gao Sheng, Luo Feng, Hong, Lei Shen, I'm sorry, I have to go and meet up according to the organization's instructions." Then the team left.

Gao Sheng said, "The creator of this Thunder World, 'Lord Kabu,' was extremely wealthy among Lords back then! But after his death, no one knows where his treasures and legacy are. With the emergence of this Realm within a Realm, I believe the entire Black Dragon Mountain Empire, the two holy lands, the four major organizations, the sixteen families, and a large number of universe-level, domain lords, and even Lords will gather on Canglan Star to enter the Lord Realm and compete for the treasures!"

Luo Feng and his two companions paled.

"But don't worry, it will take them some time to arrive. There must be a lot of cosmic crystals in the unexplored world. We can go and mine for cosmic crystals. Even if those powerful people come in, as long as we don't cause trouble, they won't fight over a few cosmic crystals for the little star-level creature," Gao Sheng said with a smile.

Thor looked around: "Have the major powers arranged for their forces to converge and join forces?"

Gao Sheng said, "They definitely want to seize the treasure. Once they get their hands on it, it will be difficult for others to take it from them when their own strong members enter. But for a small team like ours, even if we are lucky enough to get the treasure, it will be difficult to keep it, and it could very well bring disaster upon us!"

Gao Sheng pointed to the adventurer teams that were leaving in all directions, "Our target should be the Cosmic Crystal! They're also going to mine the Cosmic Crystal. Most of the adventurer teams now don't belong to the four major organizations or the two holy lands."

"And your family?" Luo Feng asked.

Gao Sheng smiled, "My Wei Di family doesn't build training camps like the three major organizations and two holy lands. Right now, I'm the only one in the Realm Within a Realm."

"Three major organizations?" Hong asked, puzzled.

"Three Axe Mountain is different from the other three major organizations. They don't recruit Ever-Star members, nor do they build training camps, so there shouldn't be many of them in this realm within a realm," Gao Sheng explained.

"Then what are we waiting for?" Luo Feng laughed. "If we can find treasure, we'll look for it; if we can't find treasure, we'll still dig for cosmic crystals!"

Every world has a "cosmic crystal".

The unexplored world is even more abundant in cosmic crystals!

Cosmic Crystals are the cornerstone of the existence of the World Lord's World.
