Even a squad leader can’t guarantee killing a high-rank military lord!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“When I first came here, my quota was also one trillion—yet after six hundred thousand years on the Outer Battlefield, I’ve only slain four hundred high-rank military lords and a thousand low-rank ones!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Have you never killed a Marquis-level immortal?” Lu Qingshan asked, puzzled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this, everyone around laughed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Marquis of Stormy Waves chuckled and explained: “Lei Bao, all Marquis-level experts possess immortality—they’re not easy to kill!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You might think our squad once had three Marquis-level immortals, but even taking down just one requires sacrifice—either consuming vast quantities of precious elixirs that severely corrode Marquis-level divine power, or forcing the squad leader to burn enormous amounts of divine power!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“And once you corner a Marquis-level immortal, he might instantly detonate his entire divine power—its power is cataclysmic! Let me put it this way: even a low-rank Marquis-level immortal’s self-destruction can instantly kill a high-rank military lord and severely wound a low-rank Marquis. So our squad rarely targets Marquis-level immortals!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Exactly!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Yanpola man “Giant Elephant” glanced at them with lingering fear: “Eight thousand years ago, our squad surrounded a band of alien immortals led by one Marquis-level immortal—two high-rank military lords, three low-rank ones. To us, it was no challenge!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Our squad leader held off the alien Marquis while the rest of us swiftly wiped out the remaining military lords. The battle went smoothly—until the alien Marquis, who’d been fleeing, saw all his comrades dead. He stopped running and instead burned his divine power, charging straight at us!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Remember, when a Marquis-level immortal burns divine power, his strength surges hundreds or even thousands of times—our squad leader couldn’t even hold him off! Forced to respond, the leader burned his own divine power to kill him—but the moment the alien saw this, he realized he couldn’t win and instantly detonated all his divine power. If our squad’s Marquis-level immortals hadn’t all burned their divine power to block it, we’d have been wiped out!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Even so, resisting that explosion cost our squad heavy losses—we spent centuries recovering with precious artifacts!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So that’s how it is!” Lu Qingshan understood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though the Xuan Kong squad’s experiences differed sharply from Luo Feng’s in the original novel, Lu Qingshan knew their account reflected the true norm of the Outer Battlefield.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Most who came here sought not just cultivation, but wealth accumulation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like Luo Feng in the original novel, using rare treasures like Femo Toxin to kill Marquis-low or Marquis-high experts was pure recklessness!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Treasures like Femo Toxin were typically reserved for the most critical moments by most experts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For Lu Qingshan, however, whether he completed his assigned military merit quota meant nothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His second body came here solely to hone himself through life-or-death combat—even if he perished, he’d quickly regrow a new second body and return.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With enough time, even the largest quota could be accumulated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And his strength would only grow with time—so one trillion military merit? Utterly trivial!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During the banquet, Lu Qingshan promptly submitted his application to join the Xuan Kong squad. After the squad leader, Xuan Kong Marquis, approved it, he became a full member without issue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since the Xuan Kong squad had just returned to the base, everyone dispersed after the banquet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the following days, Lu Qingshan stayed within the base, occasionally accepting invitations to banquets from other immortals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Indeed, at the Marquis-level immortal rank, one was at least a minor powerhouse—even among the countless experts of the Outer Battlefield.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Lu Qingshan was still a World Lord, he’d have spent every military merit on enhancing himself—how could he have attended banquets?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, other members of the Xuan Kong squad, when free, came to visit Lu Qingshan and shared their survival experience on the Outer Battlefield.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though he’d once studied Outer Battlefield knowledge through the Virtual Universe, his access level there was low, and nothing compared to the hard-won wisdom of veterans who’d roamed the battlefield for millennia.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Listening to his teammates’ stories, he grew increasingly familiar with the Outer Battlefield’s realities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the Outer Battlefield, the strong from countless cosmic races employed unpredictable killing techniques—sometimes even encountering World Lord prodigies with Marquis peak strength, though such World Lords could not burn divine power and posed little threat even to low-rank Marquis-level immortals…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were Marquis Dianfengqiangzhe  who broke through into Cosmic Sovereigns mid-battle, or Marquis-limit Qiangzhe  who, after acquiring a suitable divine treasure, dominated the Outer Battlefield unchallenged…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In short: anything could happen on the Outer Battlefield!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Xuan Kong squad had roamed the Outer Battlefield for over a hundred thousand years, yet they’d seen only a fraction of its truth—even they’d never encountered an alien Marquis-level immortal. And that was a blessing for them!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For if they truly met a hostile alien Marquis-level immortal—even the weakest Marquis-low—the entire Xuan Kong squad would be instantly doomed!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>More than a month later, the Xuan Kong squad finally prepared to depart for the Outer Battlefield.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a vast hall over thirty thousand kilometers in diameter, all eight members of the Xuan Kong squad gathered, ready to depart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside the hall, starships lined up in orderly rows—some over a kilometer in diameter, others as small as a hundred meters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The number of warriors aboard varied greatly: some ships carried ten thousand troops—these were military transport vessels—while most, like the Xuan Kong squad’s, carried only a dozen elite warriors per ship.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Departure!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dressed in black battle armor, the Xuan Kong Marquis radiated formidable aura. He gave a low command and pulled a triangular E-class starship from his world ring.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whoosh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The hatch opened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Xuan Kong Marquis entered first, followed swiftly by the others. Only when the six-meter-tall Marquis of Stormy Waves stepped aboard did the hatch slowly seal shut.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all aboard, the ship joined the dense fleet ahead, slowly moving forward until it entered one of the many branching corridors.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once inside, the Xuan Kong Marquis led the way and called out: “Let’s head to the rest chamber!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This remark was clearly meant for Lu Qingshan—the rest of the squad were already thoroughly familiar with the routine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The deputy leader, Ironblood Marquis, smiled and explained to Lu Qingshan: “Lei Bao, don’t think this E-class ship is beneath our leader’s status. On the Outer Battlefield, battles erupt at any moment—starships are among the fastest-consuming items! Poorer immortals buy bulk C-class ships.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Our leader wouldn’t ride a C-class ship, but he’s ordered countless E-class ones. Only the rest chamber is built from F9-grade metal—enough to resist attacks from Marquis-level experts.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this point, the Xuan Kong Marquis had led them into the rest chamber, constructed of F9-grade metal called Guīyán Stone Mother.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The chamber was thirty meters in diameter and twenty meters high—large enough that even the six-meter-tall Marquis of Stormy Waves felt no crowding.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After hearing Ironblood Marquis’s words, the Xuan Kong Marquis smiled: “When I first arrived, I once traveled in an F-class ship. But even an ordinary immortal could cause minor damage to it. After too many crises, my gains barely covered repair costs—so I switched to buying bulk E-class ships.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“These are custom-made—each costs less than a hundred billion cosmic coins. Losing one every few years? Nothing to me.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Qingshan nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A hundred billion cosmic coins were precious in the human territories—enough to buy countless life planets—but here, on the Outer Battlefield teeming with experts and endless opportunities, they were negligible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially since the Xuan Kong Marquis was a high-rank Marquis-level immortal—slaying just one or two ordinary immortals yielded enough loot to buy countless starships.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a moment, the Xuan Kong Marquis continued: “Lei Bao, since this is your first time on the Outer Battlefield, you should see what the base looks like.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he spoke, he ordered the ship’s AI to activate the external simulation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Giant Elephant couldn’t help exclaiming: “This base is our sanctuary—once inside its protective range, even Marquis-unrivaled experts dare not approach!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beep!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ship’s hull vanished instantly—Lu Qingshan and the others felt as if they floated in true cosmic space.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ship still waited in the hall; as time passed, starships entered the corridors one by one—soon, it was the Xuan Kong squad’s turn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ship flew tens of thousands of kilometers along the corridor, then entered a curved passage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only moments later…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Boom!” “Boom!” “Boom!”…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Massive gates slammed down along countless corridors; then the outermost gate of the base roared open. Around them, starships activated energy shields and surged toward the distant stars.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Activate energy defense shields!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The squad leader ordered: “It’s time for us to go!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whoosh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The starship carrying Lu Qingshan and the others shot toward the cosmic void. Lu Qingshan turned back, watching through the simulation as the colossal base floated in the boundless starfield.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The entire 026 War Base stood millions of kilometers tall—far larger than a true star.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Around it, a multicolored energy shield pulsed with ever-shifting, powerful runes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Massive gun emplacements, hundreds of kilometers in diameter, looked monstrous—each shot could erase entire star regions into nothingness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This war base really packs a punch!” Lu Qingshan couldn’t help exclaiming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though smaller than the Virtual Universe Company’s central continent, this base radiated far greater intimidation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Virtual Universe Company’s headquarters lies safely in the human heartland, its power concealed—this base, built on the Outer Battlefield teeming with cosmic experts, must display its might to intimidate all races.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This is an AAA-grade divine base!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The squad leader said: “Each base is the stronghold of our human faction. Once inside, you’re absolutely safe.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Look at those gun emplacements hundreds of kilometers wide! When I first arrived, I once witnessed their power—just one cannon fired, and the entire star region ahead vanished. The four Marquis-level immortals chasing us were instantly erased.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Tell us more, leader!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, the rest of the squad—Lu Qingshan included—listened intently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Xuan Kong Marquis continued: “I was only low-rank Marquis then, hadn’t formed the Xuan Kong squad. I was returning in my starship when I saw several alien Marquis-level immortals chasing our people. The base’s cannon didn’t even charge—it fired instantly. Time and space froze. Those four alien Marquis-level immortals vanished in an instant.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Later, I learned they were remnants of the Yanji Continent’s natives—not legitimate participants in the Outer Battlefield. They didn’t understand the base’s terror.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I also heard the one they chased had obtained the priceless Pagoda Treasure—but after returning to the base, he never went back to the Outer Battlefield. He must’ve retired.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Pagoda Treasure?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Shadow beside him couldn’t help exclaiming: “Last time the Pagoda Treasure appeared on Yanji Continent, over twenty Marquis-level immortals perished!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Nightmare added: “I heard even Marquis-limit experts came from distant danger zones. Luckily, we were far from those battles—or we wouldn’t have even had the honor of being cannon fodder!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As they chatted, the starship advanced forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Through the external simulation, Lu Qingshan watched the void—occasionally spotting shattered starship debris, insectoid corpses, and asteroid fragments…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These remnants drifted endlessly through space, yet no squad ever stopped to investigate them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once we leave the military base’s protective zone, any location could become a battlefield!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yin Ying poured Lu Qingshan a full cup of fruit wine, then smiled and asked, “Lei Bao, is this your first time entering the Outer War Zone? Are you nervous?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Not really.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Qingshan lifted his cup and drained it, then smiled and said, “Honestly, I think those alien races who run into us should be the ones nervous.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hahaha!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The booming voice of Marquis Jingtao rang out: “Well said! Let’s all drink up—to wish the Xuan Kong Squad a bountiful return from this Outer War Zone!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Bountiful return!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All members of the Xuan Kong Squad raised their cups and drained them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hahaha, with all eight of us Immortals together here, no one in these low-tier combat zones would dare provoke us!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Captain Marquis Xuan Kong smiled and said, “Yanji Continent is still far off. Once we reach the acceleration zone, we can boost to light speed and enter the Dark Universe—we should arrive at Yanji Continent within ten days.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Cosmic Mystery Realm differs greatly from normal cosmic space, and with countless experts constantly battling in the Seventh War Zone, many regions are choked with interstellar dust and the remains of corpses. To enter the Dark Universe smoothly, we must first reach specially cleared zones before accelerating to light speed for cosmic transit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the Seventh Outer War Zone, such specially cleared cosmic transit points are numerous—too many to count.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Qingshan and the others, aboard their cosmic vessel, soon reached one of these cleared transit points.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Throughout this journey, the Xuan Kong Squad remained ever vigilant, even sensing energy fluctuations from clashes between powerful cultivators.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only after the ship entered the Dark Universe did they finally relax slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",2299,"2026-06-20T09:18:16.807Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","8857d2904c9c469a38ee8191b934eedfeed257c52623efdc33a8fc0f28e0c62f","all-heavens-starting-from-consuming-starry-sky-t-chapter-96","all-heavens-starting-from-consuming-starry-sky-t-chapter-94",516,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fall-heavens-starting-from-consuming-starry-sky-t-cover.jpg"]
