Swallowing the Stars: Inheriting the Legacy of Myriad Worlds

Chapter 83 Immortal Days

After entrusting the establishment of the divine kingdom to his Starry Sky clone, Li Che's main body did not linger in the huge void between the two star sectors. Instead, he took out the Starry Sky ship and headed to the Giant Axe Secret Realm.

That is the core cosmic secret realm of the Giant Axe Arena. Its status is the same as the original secret realm of the Virtual Universe Company and the glorious secret realm of the Cosmic Mercenary Alliance. They are all the core areas of a giant.

After a journey of more than 470 standard days and nights, Li Che finally saw the spatial passage leading to the Giant Axe Secret Realm.

This was the first time in so many years that Li Che had come to the Giant Axe Secret Realm.

When the Starship landed at Li Che's residence in the Giant Axe Secret Realm—a secret realm planet with a diameter of 27000 kilometers—it found two groups of people standing on the planet's docking port, respectfully waiting for Li Che's arrival.

The moment Li Che stepped off the spaceship, he went to a group of powerful figures and smiled at one of the immortal goddesses, a woman with two horns on her head and pink skin: "This is the first time we've met in reality, Ms. Moalani."

This female immortal deity from a branch of the human elf race in the universe was the captain of the guard team that Li Che was assigned to in the arena when he joined the Giant Axe Secret Realm.

"It is our honor to meet a legend like yourself, Your Highness Li Che!"

Li Che's attitude made the female immortal deity with two horns on her head feel quite flattered. She bowed deeply to Li Che to express her respect as the master of the feet.

Behind Lord Moalani, 10 captains of the Realm Lord-level Guard, who were recognized by the Origin Law, 100 Domain Lord Warriors who had crossed the threshold of the Origin Law, and more than 10,000 servants knelt on one knee in unison to express their respect for Li Che.

These people are Li Che's guards and servants. Although they are not responsible for following Li Che on his adventures, they protect Li Che's planet every day when he is not in the Giant Axe Secret Realm.

This group of guards knew better than many others just how powerful a genius the prince they were protecting was.

He joined the Giant Axe Arena and Giant Axe Secret Realm as a Realm Lord. Immediately after joining, he passed through the first 17 levels of the Bridge to Heaven. Afterward, he passed through the 18th and 19th levels in a very short time. His depth of understanding of the laws was simply astonishing.

Not long ago, His Highness Li Che once again demonstrated his exceptional talent, successfully passing through the 20th level of the Giant Axe Sky Bridge and becoming a legendary genius realm master, a rare feat seen only once in tens of millions of epochs in the Giant Axe Secret Realm.

"Your Highness...you've broken through to the Immortal level?"

As Li Che's nominal guardian of immortality, Lord Mo'alani actually met Li Che frequently in the virtual universe. She wanted to exchange a few pleasantries with Li Che, but suddenly discovered that the iconic jet-black mark of the primordial law between Li Che's eyebrows had disappeared at some point.

The disappearance of a realm lord's mark, which is recognized by the fundamental laws, usually only signifies one thing.

He has broken through to the level of an immortal god!

"That's true."

Li Che had no intention of hiding anything from his immortal bodyguard. He casually responded and then looked at the several Giant Axe Arena staff members who were silently waiting on the other side. "These people are probably here to confirm my basic information."

Upon hearing this, the Immortal-level staff members dressed in white uniforms stepped forward and bowed to Li Che. One of them, an old man with a white beard, said, "Your Highness Li Che, we have come here specifically to confirm your current level of team. You may address me as Marquis Lin Guang."

A light-law immortal at the Marquis level, judging from the density of his divine body and the fluctuations of the laws around him, should have a basic power of about 4500 times that of a World Lord.

After becoming immortal, the weak's divine body holds almost no secrets for him; his true nature can be seen through at a glance.

"Let's begin then. One of my main purposes in coming to the Giant Axe Secret Realm is to verify my identity," he said calmly with a smile.

"Yes, Your Highness!"

Lin Guanghou nodded seriously. If it were a core member of a lower-level secret realm who was promoted, he would not be so polite. However, the person in front of him was someone who had passed the 20th level of the Tongtian Bridge during the Realm Lord era. If the other party became an immortal, a Marquis-level immortal would be insignificant.

He and his two other immortal teammates exchanged a glance, then immediately retrieved a palm-sized device from their world rings and asked in a deep voice, "First, may I ask Your Highness Li Che, are you certain that you have reached the immortal level?"

"I confirm." Li Che nodded.

"Please scan the device in my hand with both regular immortal divine power and ethereal immortal divine power." With his two immortal teammates as witnesses, Lin Guanghou continued the procedure.

The conventional power of immortality goes without saying, but the power of ethereal immortality is a special application of divine power, often used for soul attacks.

This posed absolutely no challenge for Li Che.

"Beep beep! The immortal divine power of the Law of Light has been confirmed and is being compared with the world power data of Li Che, a core member of the Giant Axe Secret Realm at the main level..."

"Comparison complete. The World Power and Immortal Divine Power are 100.00% compatible!"

"Comparison complete. The soul power and the ethereal immortal divine power are 100.00% compatible!"

"Confirmation complete. Li Che, a core member of the Giant Axe Secret Realm at the main level, has successfully advanced to the Immortal level."

Soon, the device in Lin Guanghou's hand emitted a series of crisp mechanical sounds, making a final confirmation of Li Che's current level.

Seeing this, the three immortal deities, including Lin Guanghou, quickly put away the device and bowed to Li Che again: "The program is working perfectly. Congratulations, Your Highness Li Che, from this day forward you will be eternally immortal and have an endless lifespan!"

"Thank you." Li Che nodded and watched the three immortal gods leave.

"Congratulations, Your Highness, on your eternal life and endless existence!"

Turning his head, Li Che was surprised to find that his guards and servants, including Lord Moalani, were kneeling on one knee to congratulate him.

Almost the instant Li Che became an immortal god, his servants and guards received a message from the arena that Li Che had voluntarily withdrawn from the Giant Axe Secret Realm, and his guards and servants naturally disbanded at that moment.

However, they still felt extremely honored to witness the rise of such a legendary realm master, which was a rare opportunity for these weak but powerful individuals.

"Um."

Li Che smiled at the people who had diligently guarded his residence for tens of thousands of years. With a wave of his hand, he transferred a sum of points to the accounts of all the Realm Lords, Domain Lords, and servants present. The points received at each level were different, but they were all quite considerable for these lower-level members of the company.

Then, Li Che looked at Moalani, the military lord, and transferred 20 points into the immortal military lord's account.

This was a negligible expense for Li Che, after all, he had won one billion points in the first place in the Giant Axe Secret Realm Master Qualification Battle thousands of years ago.

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

At this moment, Li Che's servants and guards exclaimed in surprise and bowed deeply to Li Che once again.

Even the eyes of the military lord Mo'alani flickered with an inexplicable gleam.

"Your Highness, once you become a Universal Venerable, will I have the honor of serving under your direct command?"

She felt a little regretful because Li Che was not a member of the Giant Axe Secret Realm who followed the normal genius battle process and did not experience the period of being released to the Domain Lord level, which resulted in her relationship with Li Che not being as deep as that of a normal Giant Axe Secret Realm member and Guardian Army Lord.

The rule of the five giants is that only those who are at the level of a cosmic venerable are qualified to take other formal internal members under their command. This Lord Mo'alani is quite forward-thinking, as she has taken the initiative to request to join his ranks in the future.

"Okay." Li Che glanced at the Immortal Military Lord but did not refuse.

He chatted with the female immortal deity from the elven branch for a few more minutes, and Li Che's expression softened only after she left.

Just then, the figure of the intelligent assistant Bai Yue suddenly appeared on Li Che's shoulder, and a gentle voice entered Li Che's ears: "Sir, Lord Canghun Wang, the disciple of Lord Luhai, has sent you a communication request. He said that he is under the orders of Lord Luhai to provide you with some advice."

Li Che nodded.

Canghun Wang is the junior disciple who passed through the 20th level of the Tongtian Bridge and possessed a powerful treasure to seal the stars.
