My equipment is designed for cultivation; I started by slaughtering my way through a small world.

Chapter 268 Finally Breaking Free from the Cage

Gu Qing was unaware that what he had done in the Black Dragon Mountain plane had already spread among the high-ranking officials of many forces in the Immortal Kingdom in less than a day.

At this moment, Gu Qing was leading his Mo Xia mercenaries, having just retreated to Zhenhai City.

On the road.

Gu Qing was thinking about something.

The remnant soul of the Black Dragon said that several deities from the Holy Covenant Divine Court came to the Black Dragon Mountain plane to find something.

The Holy Covenant Divine Court will definitely escalate its efforts and send more troops to the Black Dragon Mountain plane.

"Old Chen, Old Jia, Old Gao, Old Yang —"

Back at the mercenary base, Gu Qing glanced at his centurions and then continued, "Old Chen, Old Jia."

"I remember that both of your families have considerable connections within the Xianmu Group, right?"

The two nodded.

Unlike ordinary cannon fodder like Gu Qing, who were bought from high school.

Their family has various collaborations with the Xianmu Group, such as the research and development of various elixirs and the cultivation of bloodline materials.

Although Jia and his group joined Xianmu Group, they were also cannon fodder, but their purposes were different.

The families behind them, in order to curry favor with the powerful Xianmu Group, sent them to join the Xianmu Group as mercenaries, trained them, and helped them climb to high-level positions in the Xianmu Group in order to expand their cooperation with the Xianmu Group.

This is the way out for ordinary cultivation families.

All the families, large and small, in the Immortal Kingdom live and thrive around the immortals.

If an ordinary person wants to rise above others, the best course of action is to be admitted to one of the top ten universities in the Immortal Kingdom, thereby gaining access to the various resources of the Immortal Kingdom and having a glimmer of hope to transcend the mortal realm and become an immortal.

"Boss Gu, why are you suddenly asking about this?"

"Just tell me if you need any cultivation resources, and my dad will throw in the money later—"

Before Jia could finish speaking, Gu Qing waved his hand to interrupt, saying, "It's not what you think; it's something else."

"Um?!"

Chen and Jia both looked at Gu Qing, their faces filled with confusion.

They couldn't understand what could possibly stump Gu Qing.

Gu Qing didn't beat around the bush and went straight to the point: "I've received some inside information. The upcoming war in the Black Dragon Mountain plane will be very brutal, with countless deaths and injuries."

"Contact the families behind you and get out of here as soon as possible to avoid trouble in other dimensions."

"Otherwise, there's a high probability I'll die here."

Some things can't be said too clearly, after all, this information came from the remnant soul of the Black Dragon.

Upon hearing this, the mercenaries under his command all changed their expressions drastically.

They trusted Gu Qing completely.

Since becoming mercenaries under Gu Qing's command, almost everything Gu Qing said to them has come true.

"Boss Gu, what about you?"

"Would you like to come with us?"

"Although the relationship with Xianmu Group is a bit strained, with some effort and smoothing things over, the higher-ups at Xianmu Group will give us some face."

After exchanging a glance, Jia Meiqian and Chen Ang made a decision in their hearts.

I need to find a way to persuade my family, spend money and resources, and try to get Gu Laoda to leave the Black Dragon Mountain plane with me.

A smile flashed in Gu Qing's eyes upon hearing this; their intentions were good.

but.

How could Xianmu Group let him off so easily? They would try to hold him back no matter what.

Shaking his head, Gu Qing said, "You've put in a lot of effort, but this matter isn't as simple as you think."

"You don't need to worry about that."

"If possible, bring Lao Yang and Gao Su along—"

Upon hearing this, Yang Hong, Gao Su, and the others all showed gratitude in their eyes.

He was a mercenary who came from an ordinary civilian background.

Without Gu Qing's help, they would have died long ago in some unknown remote corner.

"Thank you, Boss Gu."

"Don't thank me. If you want to thank someone, thank Chen Ang and Jia Meiqian. It was thanks to their families that you were able to get out of the Black Dragon Mountain plane."

People like Yang Hong and Gao Su are considered insignificant figures by the senior management of Xianmu Group.

It will cost a little money to establish connections, but not much.

Gu Qing was no good.

He can only leave Xianmu Group on his own.

After giving the group some pointers, Gu Qing returned to his personal warship to attend to his own affairs.

"Open the Great Void Seal."

Within the Black Dragon Mountain plane, only within the mercenary base of the Immortal Wood Group can one connect to the spiritual virtual world constructed by the Venerable Immortal Artifact, the Void Pivot.

As one of the three supreme immortal artifacts of the Immortal Kingdom, the Taixu Pivot can connect to the myriad worlds and planes of the void.

The only constraint is that a connection point built by a celestial kingdom is required.

Similar to a network port.

The Grand Void Cardinal oversees all aspects of the Immortal Kingdom, including all its inhabitants.

Gu Qing glanced at the data on his Void Seal and communicated with the Void Cardinal: "I want to exchange for the Immortal Kingdom Expansion Token!!"

"Please wait a moment————"

When Gu Qing made his request, the Taixu Cardinal emitted a voice without any fluctuation.

It operates strictly in accordance with the laws of the Celestial Kingdom.

It is one of the three cornerstones of the Immortal Kingdom, and even immortals cannot interfere with it.

Gu Qing's request was quickly transmitted from the Black Dragon Mountain plane to Gu Qing's birthplace, the Immortal Kingdom 1086 plane.

Key information is processed by the Taixu Cardinal font.

To redeem a Pioneer Token, the Taixu Pivot will conduct a comprehensive assessment of the applicant's qualifications.

The first requirement is 10000 civilization points, which serves as the basic threshold.

at this point.

In the East China Sea of ​​Heilongjiang, Gu Qing killed a large number of Reincarnation Cult cultivators and gained a large number of Civilization Points. Combined with the more than two thousand Civilization Points he gained in the previous battle of Harbor City, his total has exceeded that amount by a large margin.

Second.

The applicant's combat strength and potential must meet the requirements for exploring the void.

Otherwise, it would be like throwing good money after bad, becoming a treasure-delivering servant for other beings in the void, and leaking information about the immortal kingdom.

Almost instantly, the Taixu Cardinal Sub-entity of the 1086th plane of the Immortal Kingdom used Gu Qing's performance in the four different planes as basic data and used its enormous computing power to deduce and simulate Gu Qing's performance in different planes.

"Preliminary assessment indicates that citizen Gu Qing's combat capabilities have improved rapidly, and he possesses an extremely strong ability to break through barriers when encountering difficulties."

"Preliminary assessment indicates that citizen Gu Qing possesses a tenth-level Heavenly Dao Foundation, indicating boundless potential."

"Based on preliminary assessment, citizen Gu Qing possesses exceptional learning and exploration abilities, making him well-suited to deciphering the various cultivation systems of alien civilizations."

A few breaths later, the voice of the Grand Void Cardinal rang out again: "Respected second-class citizen Gu Qing, I suggest you carefully consider exchanging the Pioneer Token. Once you choose the path of the Pioneer, you will face numerous dangers. I advise you not to leave the Immortal Kingdom's territory lightly before you become an immortal—"

-

"Um?

77

Hearing Taixu Shuji speak again, his voice sounding slightly anxious, Gu Qing was taken aback.

"Does the Grandmaster Taixu not follow the established rules?"

"It seems like it doesn't want me to go on adventures in other planes. Could it be that the high school textbooks are wrong? Can the Great Void Cardinal also have emotional reactions?"

'

Gu Qing couldn't help but wonder to himself.

but.

In order to leave the Black Dragon Mountain plane as soon as possible and break free from the control of the Immortal Wood Group, he decided to exchange for the Expansion Order.

Ten thousand civilization points were deducted from the Taixu Dharma Seal.

Followed by.

The Taixu Dharma Seal interface emitted a dazzling light, as if it were undergoing an upgrade.

Soon, the new Taixu Dharma Seal interface appeared before Gu Qing's eyes, informing him of several important pieces of information:

First, after exchanging the Expansion Order, Gu Qing's citizenship level immediately rose to fifth-class citizen, granting him access to more than a dozen basic benefits of being a citizen of the Immortal Kingdom.

Secondly, after becoming a pioneer, Gu Qing obtained the qualification for solo teleportation. He could connect to another supreme immortal artifact of the Immortal Kingdom, the Gate of Void, through the Taixu Dharma Seal personal terminal.

He can teleport between dimensions at any time.

Just as Gu Qing was exchanging the Expansion Token, a golden teleportation light suddenly appeared in the second mercenary base of the Immortal Wood Group in the Black Soil Plane.

Immediately afterwards, several cultivators with cold faces crossed over to the other realm.
