Chapter 12: Courier and Driver (Requesting Follows)

Inside the Virtual Universe Company's headquarters across the entire Starry Sky World.

Right after Lu Qingshan uploaded novels like "A Record of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality" to the chat group, the breakthroughs of other powerful beings nearby had already been completed.

Long before the breakthroughs, Lord Heifeng had already sent them out of the starship.

And once they finished their breakthroughs, Lord Heifeng and others reappeared before them.

"You little ones who haven't broken through yet!"

Lord Heifeng's gaze turned toward those cultivators who remained at the peak of the Boundary Lord realm: "From now on, follow these few; they will arrange everything for you!"

As soon as Lord Heifeng finished speaking, an Immortal Spirit stepped out from behind each of these Hei Fengwang-level powerful beings.

"Those joining my Virtual Universe Company faction, follow me!" the Immortal who emerged from behind Lord Heifeng quickly said.

"Those joining my Universal Mercenary Alliance faction, follow me!"

"Those joining my Universal Star River Bank..."

Under the leadership of these five Immortal Spirits, those Boundary Lord peak cultivators who had not yet broken through soon departed.

"Congratulations to you all!"

After all the Boundary Lord-level cultivators had left, Lord Heifeng continued: "You have broken through to become Immortal Spirits, and from now on possess eternal life!"

"However, since you have all previously joined the core layers of our five major powers, you must now complete the tasks assigned to you according to the arrangements of the five major powers!"

"Of course, by completing the corresponding tasks, you will also be able to obtain numerous rewards!"

Speaking thus, Lord Heifeng waved his hand: "Very well, now those joining my Virtual Universe Company faction, follow me!"

"Those joining my Giant Axe Martial Arena faction, follow me..."

As soon as the words of these few Hei Fengwang Immortals were spoken, Lu Qingshan and others immediately took action.

Although they had now broken through to become Immortals, they knew clearly in their hearts that compared to the Hei Fengwang Immortals before them, or even the five major superpowers of the Human Race, they were still merely little ones, so naturally they would not oppose the arrangements of the five major powers.

Soon, Lu Qingshan and the group who joined the Virtual Universe Company followed Lord Heifeng to a spacious hall.

"Excellent!"

Lord Heifeng looked at Lu Qingshan and others, smiling as he said: "You people choosing to join my Virtual Universe Company is absolutely the wisest choice!"

"The benefits of our Virtual Universe Company are undoubtedly the best among the five major powers! Within the company, you will be able to see all kinds of rare treasures and secret technique inheritances that are normally impossible to see, and all of these, you can exchange for with sufficient points!"

"And to accumulate points, you must complete the corresponding tasks!"

"Very well, let us not speak of these things for now!"

Lord Heifeng then said: "Now, begin assigning tasks to you."

"Karista!"

Lord Heifeng's gaze turned to a stunningly beautiful young girl in the crowd: "From now on, you will remain on my starship, responsible for guiding numerous cultivators to the Initial Universe!"

"Yes, Great-Grandmaster!" the stunningly beautiful young girl Karista quickly responded.

"Hmm!"

Lord Heifeng nodded slightly, then his gaze turned again to two young men who looked nearly identical, and he smiled as he said: "Roberson, Luo Luo Bote, you two brothers have been assigned to the Initial Universe, responsible for the guidance work of the Initial Universe; shortly, you may return to the Initial Universe with me!"

"Yes, Lord Heifeng!" the two Roberson brothers said simultaneously, a hint of joy flashing across their faces.

The reason these two brothers were able to be assigned such a precious task was because their family's ancestor was one of the greatest existences of the Virtual Universe Company lineage, the great Lord Youhou Zhi Zhu!

However, their talent had previously been ordinary; although they could enjoy some family resources, they were utterly unremarkable within the entire family.

But fortunately, the two brothers had gambled correctly; they obtained a quota to comprehend the Initial Universe through their family, and now they had smoothly become Immortal Spirits, instantly greatly elevating their status within the family!

After all, within their entire family, apart from Lord Youhou Zhi Zhu, there was only one Zifeng Zunzhe, two Hei Fengwang Immortals, thirteen Hei Fenghou Immortals, and over three hundred ordinary Immortals!

Now that the two brothers had been assigned to the Initial Universe, whether continuing to increase their strength or accumulating wealth in the future, they would far surpass others!

Next, Lord Heifeng continued assigning tasks to everyone.

"Crista, Kalandor... you thirty people have been assigned to the Flowing Light Branch; shortly, just follow Puros!"

"Tori, Klimo... Lu Qingshan, you seventeen people have been assigned to the Transportation Department; shortly, just follow Warren!"

As soon as Lord Heifeng finished speaking, a handsome young man with a vertical eye growing on his Marquis Meixin stepped out from behind him, then beckoned Lu Qingshan and others to move aside.

Before long, Lord Heifeng had finished assigning all tasks to those who joined the Virtual Universe Company, then departed with Karista and the two Luo Luo Bote brothers aboard a starship.

And Warren and other Immortal Spirits responsible for leading the teams, after exchanging greetings with each other, also prepared to lead their groups away.

Thus, Lu Qingshan and the other sixteen Immortals assigned to the Transportation Department were quickly led by the handsome young man Warren to a starship docking port.

"Immortals all!"

The handsome young man pointed at the numerous starships within the docking port, smiling as he said: "Being able to join our Transportation Department is absolutely a great opportunity for you!"

"Do you see? These are all precious F-class starships; even if you have become Immortal Spirits, it is likely that even tens of millions of years would not be enough to accumulate the wealth to purchase an F-class starship!"

"But now that you have joined our Transportation Department, you can immediately be assigned an F-class starship!"

"Of course, the starships assigned to your hands, you will only have usage rights, and you must travel to various places in the universe according to company rules to transport resources, ferry numerous geniuses of our Human Race, and so on!"

"Next, I will begin assigning your future mounts!"

The handsome young man Warren's gaze first turned to Lu Qingshan, then he smiled and said: "Lu Qingshan, your mount is that 'Crimson Three', forged from Red-Mixed Copper Mother!"

Lu Qingshan turned his head to look and immediately saw a triangular starship entirely crimson in color.

"Tori, your mount..." Warren continued assigning starships to everyone.

Before long, Warren had finished assigning each person's starship for Lu Qingshan and others.

"Very well, everything you need to pay attention to in the future has already been sent to you via the Virtual Universe; shortly, you may understand it on your own!"

Warren waved his hand, then said: "Now, all of you connect your consciousness to enter the Virtual Universe, then directly teleport to Lei Ting Island; I will lead you to construct your future residences within the Virtual Universe!"

"Yes!" Lu Qingshan and his companions nodded in unison, then each projected a thread of consciousness to connect and enter the Virtual Universe.

After Lu Qingshan became an Immortal Deity, his permissions within the Virtual Universe Company immediately increased significantly, and his auxiliary intelligence, Deep Blue, also gained a new function.

That was, upon entering the Virtual Universe, he could directly teleport to a special plane within it named 'Lei Ting Island'.

Virtual Universe Company Headquarters Plane, Lei Ting Island.

Lei Ting Island is the place where members of the Virtual Universe Company above the Immortal level reside; the island's area is incomprehensibly vast, shrouded in clouds and mist all day, with electric snakes circling its surroundings.

On this Lei Ting Island, there are countless palaces, each representing one Immortal Deity within the Virtual Universe Company.

And at the central position of this Lei Ting Island stands an immensely magnificent mountain range; at the mid-slope position, even more luxurious palaces have been constructed.

Here reside the true high-ranking officials of the Virtual Universe Company, the great existences of the Universe Zifeng Zunzhe level.

As for the peak of this mountain range, there are only a few palaces that appear and disappear faintly; these belong to the Universe Masters, and some Universe Dominators with astonishing strength are also qualified to live here.

In a ordinary area of Lei Ting Island, a figure suddenly appeared; it was Lu Qingshan, having just teleported.

Soon, Huo Gesi and others who had joined the Transport Department also all appeared here.

"Master!" a voice very familiar to Lu Qingshan came.

Everyone turned their heads to look and saw Warren, who had previously assigned them starships, walking toward them together with another short-haired youth, and the voice that had just made Lu Qingshan feel so familiar was emitted by that short-haired youth.

"Huo Gesi!" A smile quickly appeared on Lu Qingshan's face.

This short-haired youth was precisely his sixth disciple, Huo Gesi, who had long ago joined the Virtual Universe Company and become an Immortal Deity.

"Huo Gesi!"

The handsome youth Warren said with a smile, "I still need to explain the matters requiring attention to others; I'll leave this teacher of yours to you, and you can introduce the remaining matters to him!"

"No problem!"

Huo Gesi immediately said with a smile, "I can handle Master's matters! Warren, thank you for this matter; after I finish my work in a while, I'll treat you to drinks!"
