LRAB Chapter 93, Hongmeng City
Chapter 93, Hongmeng City
The Winged Bird Clan King's self-destruction left no body, but King Mingze's soul died, so a body still remained. However, his teacher, Palace Master Bai Feng, mentioned that he should bring it back, so he did as she asked.
He converted all his military merits into points and used them to purchase items unique to the army's internal treasury, especially resources usable by domain lords and realm masters, spending hundreds of billions of points. He also exchanged three bottles of "Purple Fragrance Wine" for over 10 billion points and one bottle of "Green Wood Wine" for 8 billion points. Furthermore, he spent 12 billion points to purchase an Evolution Heart, a unique item of the Mechanical Race, prepared for Jiu Feng. Its evolutionary speed is accelerating rapidly; it feels that in about ten thousand years at most, Jiu Feng will evolve into a true intelligent life form.
After handling all the details, Ye Muxuan officially retired and left the extraterrestrial battlefield. He first returned to the Qingyuan Star Region and met with Grand Elder Zhong Li, who had just emerged from the Initial Universe. The latter lived up to expectations, successfully breaking through in Chaos City. After leaving the Initial Universe, his divine body evolved, and he is now the first Immortal in the Qingyuan Clan!
Ye Muxuan personally congratulated this elder who had single-handedly shouldered the heavy responsibility of the Qingyuan Clan's survival back then, and even gave him a bottle of "Zixin Wine," which greatly enhanced his speed of comprehending the laws during this period.
Because of Ye Muxuan's influence, Zhong Li joined the Virtual Universe Company after becoming an Immortal. However, his talent was far inferior to Ye Muxuan's. Even though he joined as an Immortal God, he was currently only an internal member of the Virtual Universe Company, not a core member. However, considering Zhong Li's relationship with His Highness Muxuan—it was His Highness Muxuan who purchased his initial universe enlightenment spot—and that he was the only Immortal of the Qingyuan Clan, the management of the Virtual Universe Company transferred Zhong Li to the Mingyou Universe Kingdom, making him the head of the killing field on the Virtual Universe Submerged Rock Island. He was essentially a member of the Virtual Universe Company's business department in the Mingyou Universe Kingdom.
The Virtual Universe Company's three major powers in the Mingyou Universe Kingdom—the Commerce Department, the Military Department, and the General Staff Department—are all headed by peak-level Marquis-level Immortals, wielding immense power. Furthermore, each department has hundreds of subordinate officials who are Immortal Gods. Clearly, for the Virtual Universe Company, ordinary Immortal Gods are not rare; what they lack are true powerhouses, at least those who have been granted the title of King.
Having spent over thirty years in the Qingyuan Starfield, handling some trivial matters, meeting the newly promoted elder Qingque, offering encouragement, and leaving behind a large amount of cultivation resources—originally intended for his clansmen to exchange—Ye Muxuan set off for the Initial Universe.
He was qualified to reside permanently in Chaos City as soon as he passed the eighteenth level of the Bridge to Heaven.
……
In the primordial universe, in Chaos City, Ye Muxuan and Suichen stepped out of the spaceship and looked at the welcoming envoys who had come to greet them.
Ye Muxuan had consulted his teacher, Palace Master Bai Feng, and learned that powerful individuals with permanent residency in Chaos City could bring their own soul servants into the city, though the number of such servants was limited. However, this wasn't a problem for Ye Muxuan, as he currently only had one soul servant, the Shattered Dust Soul Servant.
Previously, a Marquis-level Immortal from another race was given to Zhong Li, along with tens of millions of Hunyuan, which allowed him to purchase a soul secret technique to enslave that Marquis-level Immortal.
In recent years, besides Shattered Dust, three other peak-level Marquis Immortals from other races have been captured on the battlefields beyond the realms. With Shattered Dust, ordinary Marquis Immortals, even those at the peak of the Marquis level, are not worth much attention. However, keeping them as part of the Qingyuan Clan's foundation is still a good idea. The remaining two are waiting for someone in the Qingyuan Clan to break through to Immortality, at which point they can be given to them. For now, they are both with Zhong Li, who is keeping an eye on them.
In any case, the peak-level immortals who are in a deep slumber will not awaken for thousands or tens of thousands of years, let alone hundreds of thousands. Moreover, many of them will silently perish in their slumber. Even if they do awaken, they will only have less than half of their divine bodies left, and their strength will be only one-tenth. Even their weapons and armor will be taken away, and even Zhongli could deal with them.
Amidst the astonished and awe-inspiring gazes of the spaceship passengers, Ye Muxuan led Sui Chen away directly. Those powerful individuals who were visiting Chaos City for the first time needed a welcoming envoy to guide them, but Ye Muxuan did not.
He let Suichen choose a small building to live in and then comprehend the laws, while Ye Muxuan himself walked smoothly towards the city lord's mansion.
When he left Chaos City more than three thousand years ago, he crossed three levels of the Heavenly Bridge, gaining three extra chances, but he used one before leaving. More than a thousand years ago, he crossed another level, so he still has three chances to comprehend the Chaos Stele.
Soul servants who follow their masters into Chaos City are only qualified to comprehend the law runes manifested above their heads. They do not have any privileges such as the Chaos Stele or the Heavenly Bridge. This is something that even a Venerable servant cannot obtain, let alone be granted a title.
Even so, for these immortals, this was an extraordinary opportunity.
Life in Chaos City remained peaceful as always. After completing his comprehension of the City Lord's Mansion, Ye Muxuan chose a small building as his residence for this period of rest. While savoring the essence of the Chaos Stele he had just comprehended, he connected to the virtual universe and entered the highest plane of the virtual universe, which was also the plane space with the most powerful beings in the entire virtual universe: the Hongmeng Space.
For the past thirty years, I had only gone in for a look and hadn't stayed long. This time, I finally went in for real.
In the boundless, vast starry sky, surrounded by numerous stars, lies an ancient city suspended in the void, majestic and ancient—this is Hongmeng City.
The sun and moon are its embellishments, and the Milky Way is its decoration.
"Buzz!"
As Ye Muxuan arrived, one of the countless stars surrounding Hongmeng City also lit up slightly.
Ye Muxuan arrived directly in the living room. According to the message from Jiufeng, this is a platform for communication, not a killing field for practicing secret techniques. All members who enter Hongmeng City are all apprentice-level with fragile bodies and 3200 square meters of living space.
Of course, this is only a limitation of physical fitness; consciousness cannot be limited. Those supreme beings, overlords, and even cosmic masters still possess terrifying consciousness.
Ye Muxuan walked out of the house and onto the street outside.
The sprawling community has a total of 10,000 residential units, each a two-story building, with a total area of 3200 square meters including open spaces and gardens. However, many of the units have different decorative styles.
Among those who are granted the title of King, less than one in a hundred can become a Venerable, perhaps even one in ten thousand. Once a King is assigned to a specific area, their status is essentially fixed and will not change over time. Over millions of years, not only humans have been granted the title of King, but also alien races from the Hong Alliance have joined, until the quota of ten thousand Kings is reached.
This naturally involves different ethnic groups and different aesthetics, which has led to differences in housing styles.
After instructing Jiufeng to modify the residence to his preferred style, Ye Muxuan walked towards the common area.
