Swallowing the Stars: You Can't Escape, Mountain Dweller

Chapter 561 Walpole Star

Walpole is located in a region of the universe far from human territory.

This is not a particularly remote part of the universe, only slightly less than the territories of the six most powerful races.

Bai Yang sat in the flying palace and approached this area after more than ten days.

"That Venerable Gan Yan is quite considerate of his people. For their development, he even gave up the secret realm of the universe."

It's better to live on one planet than to live in a region of more active cosmic energy.

"I'd be satisfied if my people occupied a few surrounding star systems."

At this moment, the Sacred Spire Sea Shuttle is located in space 100 light-years away from Walpole Star.

Through the sensors, Bai Yang has been able to gain a general understanding of the situation on Walpole Star.

This is a planet with a rather harsh environment, covered entirely in volcanic lava.

The surrounding space is a perfectly normal universe, with nothing like a natural wormhole.

The only unique thing about this planet is that it is relatively large.

"More than 60% of the entire planet's composition is actually a natural F-grade metallic titanium micaceous iron."

Choosing such a place as his residence is in line with Venerable Ganyan's character.

The spacetime clone left the flying palace, retrieved the treasure, and began to teleport directly towards the planet Walpole.

Out of caution, he did not use any abilities beyond the norm.

Each teleportation covered a distance of about one light-year, behaving like a standard-level Immortal King.

His body, which is now 20,000 kilometers long, has shrunk to about 200 meters.

For convenience, many immortals have the habit of shrinking their divine bodies when they are not in battle.

Most people would never know how big his body originally was.

With each teleportation, the red planet Walpole, dotted with numerous white markings, came into view.

The surface of this planet is covered with lava, and the harsh environment makes it uninhabitable.

In the orbit of this planet, a colossal floating city, as conspicuous as a steel continent, hangs suspended.

After his final teleportation, Bai Yang used his flight ability to head directly towards the city.

When they were thousands of kilometers apart, his personal computer received a message:

"Honorable Immortal, what brings you to Walpole Star?"

Bai Yang stopped to show respect and replied:

"I am an immortal king who admires the skills of Venerable Ganyan and wishes to become her disciple to learn how to refine treasures."

The staff of that floating city had seen countless cases like Bai Yang's.

After listening to him finish speaking, he began a series of procedures with great skill.

"Respected Immortal, Venerable Gan Yan is the ancestor of my clan."

Welcome! If you wish to become an apprentice, please slowly fly into entrance J924.

You will need to wait a while, as Venerable Ganyan only conducts a public assessment periodically.

During this period, we will provide you with temporary accommodation free of charge.

Bai Yang thanked them casually, and then flew into entrance J924 according to the map sent by the other side.

He already knew that Venerable Gan Yan was the only cosmic overlord of the Niri race.

The entire Nereid race looks quite similar to humans, except they all have brown skin and are over ten meters tall.

Their race is small in number and not good at fighting, although they have a cosmic overlord who is skilled in crafting artifacts.

However, in terms of clan strength, they are not much stronger than the Golden Horn Clan.

Therefore, even if someone is a King or Immortal, the Nerei tribe treats them with great courtesy, without the slightest arrogance.

Star Guardian chuckled in the AI ​​at that moment:

"That's how they're smart!"

The economic lifeline of the Niri tribe is the industrial chain that revolves around the birth of Venerable Ganyan!

Without the protection of a top-tier clan, survival would be extremely difficult for them.

Those who can come here to become disciples are at least Marquis-level Immortals; forging a good relationship with them would greatly benefit their race.

Bai Yang thought about it and realized it made sense. The Golden Horn Clan was under the protection of humans, which meant they were really going to the battlefield.

The Nereids rely on personal connections, so naturally they cultivate many good relationships.

Moreover, how could a dignified immortal king possibly eat and drink for free here?

In order to gain the favor of Venerable Ganyan, one might deliberately splurge, which is indeed a good way to make money.

Following the instructions, Bai Yang easily entered the floating city.

Upon entering, the surrounding facilities give one a sense of spaciousness.

Upon his arrival, the three realm lords of the Nerei tribe immediately flew towards him and began to explain the situation.

As expected, Bai Yang heard that in addition to free accommodation, there were various "packages" available.

The price of the highest-class accommodations surprised even him.

Bai Yang couldn't help but ask:

How often does Venerable Ganyan typically conduct public assessments for accepting disciples?

Among the three realm lords, the green-haired girl who was in the lead said with a smile:

"Respected Immortal King, Venerable Gan Yan will likely emerge from seclusion to conduct an assessment every five years."

Your timing is perfect; another opportunity will come in about six months.

Including you, there are currently only about four hundred examinees.

The number of applicants is not large, so your chances of passing the assessment and becoming a registered disciple are very high.

Bai Yang neither confirmed nor denied the girl's claim of a "high chance," and said:

"Then I'll choose the third-tier package, and wait six months for now."

Upon hearing this, the three realm lords were immediately overjoyed, and their attitude and words became several times more respectful and considerate than before!

The third-tier package was for a major client they had never encountered before!

Even though the stay is short, the price per unit is too high!

They'll be raking in commissions!

The accommodations here, apart from the free ones, have a total of 50 different levels!

The first-tier package is so luxurious that even the most powerful cosmic entity wouldn't find it shabby.

Only high-level cosmic beings would consider indulging in such luxuries at the second level.

Back then, Bai Yang still had a considerable sum of money left unredeemed in the demon realm.

Since this place accepts the currencies of all six top races, it would be a waste not to spend them, so let's splurge a little.

The green-haired girl said excitedly:

"May I ask your name, sir?"

Is it convenient for you to disclose which race you belong to?

We can provide you with the atmospheric gravity environment of your birthplace.

Bai Yang casually remarked:

"I am a special life form without a home planet, and I do not need any special adjustments."

You can call me Effie.

The three realm lords immediately dared not ask any more questions and quickly relayed the information about the major client to headquarters.

Bai Yang followed them as they flew forward, and after only a dozen minutes, they arrived at a secluded area.

Within the floating city built of steel, a transparent dome-shaped ecological zone spanning thousands of miles has been created.

Bai Yang walked onto the lawn and could clearly feel that the soil beneath his feet had a texture similar to that of the Earth.

The area is shaded by green trees, and there is even a small river flowing through it.

A five-story mansion is located in the very center of the entire area.

Bai Yang was very satisfied with what he saw and was about to enter the building.

His amazing perception and inspiration suddenly made him realize that there was the aura of a cosmic being around him!

And it was not far from him!

It's not surprising that we all live on this steel continent.

However, Bai Yang's senses clearly told him that he was very familiar with this aura.

Because that is the unique aura of the Yan God Clan!

One update today, more to be added tomorrow or the day after.
