Chapter 549: Ten Thousand Races of the Universe (Seeking monthly votes)

Star Fire, who looked like a red-clothed girl, looked at Lin Qi and laughed:

"You have to consider it carefully!"

"Many resources, others can't see at all, only you have the qualifications to obtain them!"

"Like your Blue Star's strongest person — the Red Emperor, he showed astonishing talent at the beginning."

"He passed the trials of the Aperture-Practicing Realm and the Sky-Floating Realm one after another and took away quite a few good things."

"Otherwise, your Blue Star Civilization wouldn't have been so easy to develop in a few decades."

Lin Qi nodded; the Red Emperor's contribution to their Blue Star was too great.

He pondered for a moment, and had a decision in his heart.

So he looked at the red-clothed Star Fire and said seriously:

"I've decided, I'll choose the secret technique 'Blood Burning' and the control method 'Divine Thought Thousand Threads'"

The red-clothed Star Fire was puzzled: "Are you not going to consider it anymore, are you sure you don't want to choose the Bloodline Evolution Potion?"

"With it, your bloodline can evolve again, possessing a higher upper limit!"

"You even have a chance to awaken a third special ability and become one of the top geniuses in a galaxy."

Lin Qi shook his head: "No need, I have confidence in my talent!"

The red-clothed Star Fire said helplessly:

"Alright, a moment later, the things you want will be delivered!"

Lin Qi nodded, and then chose to exit the virtual world.

"Buzz!"

When he opened his eyes again, it was already the 06 Virtual Room.

He looked back at all the rewards, making his mood unable to calm down.

It was like entering a super vault, where he could only take away a few pieces of gold, and could only watch the remaining gold.

"Hoo!"

Lin Qi exhaled, adjusted his state of mind, and waited for the five treasures to be sent over.

In a certain virtual room, Ye Xin, who was bored, opened the leaderboard.

This was her daily habit.

Soon she saw that the first place in the Blue Star leaderboard had changed again, and the first place had become Lin Qi again.

"Time taken 20 seconds?"

"Ranked first!"

Ye Xin instantly discovered something wrong with it!

And Lin Qi had also successfully topped the overall ranking.

"Could it be that Lin Qi successfully passed the fourth floor of the Star Fire Tower?"

Ye Xin was shocked in her heart, summoned the manager Star Fire, and asked the doubt in her heart.

The red-clothed Star Fire nodded and admitted: "Your Blue Star Civilization finally has a Blood Exchange Realm martial artist who passed the fourth floor of the Star Fire Tower!"

Ye Xin opened her mouth wide: "Actually really passed the fourth floor!!"

At the same time, other Seventh Realm martial artists also discovered this matter and were shocked one after another.

"Lin Qi of the Xia Guo actually really passed the fourth floor; what kind of pervert is this!"

"What kind of rewards can he get?"

"Why is everyone a genius, how can the gap be so big?"

In the 05 Virtual Room, the gold-armored youth Sun Sheng also saw this news at this time.

He looked at the screen with an unbelievable expression, widening his eyes:

"How is it possible, passed the fourth floor of the Star Fire Tower in 20 seconds?"

"How on earth did he do it?"

The red-clothed Star Fire in front of him said:

"Sun Sheng, you have to work harder; the rewards after passing are very generous."

Sun Sheng gritted his teeth: "I want to continue the fourth-floor trial of the Star Fire Tower!"

"Good!"

At the same time, Li Tianxing in the 07 Virtual Room, after getting confirmation from Star Fire, also fell silent.

Finally, he also chose to enter the Star Fire Tower for trials.

Star Fire looked at the two people in the Star Fire Tower and suddenly revealed a smile.

"It seems they have been stimulated quite a bit!"

"With geniuses to motivate them, perhaps they can progress faster!"

"There are still 10 days left until the end; maybe they really have hope of passing the fourth floor of the Star Fire Tower!"

A moment later, outside the 06 Virtual Room.

"Buzz!"

After 40 days, this door was opened again!

Lin Qi looked at the figure at the door, and saw a woman with a sharp figure, wearing red combat armor, carrying a red metal box the size of a suitcase.

The metal box was made of special materials.

Lin Qi looked at the woman; the other party was like a real life.

"This is my mechanical body!"

Suddenly the beautiful woman spoke, her voice exactly the same as Star Fire's!

"My mechanical body can exert the strength of the Universe Second Realm, and in the entire spaceship, I am an invincible existence."

"And I have hundreds of such bodies; wanting to rob by force is impossible."

Lin Qi was shocked; although he didn't know the realm Star Fire spoke of, he still felt it was very powerful.

So he asked: "What is the Universe Realm?"

Star Fire shook her head: "You count the things, and then I'll wait for you to speak!"

Lin Qi nodded, took the metal box, and found that there was no password, and it could be opened directly.

Inside were five things, three secret manuals of different colors.

The golden secret manual was "World-Extinguishing Spear Canon," the silver one was the spiritual control method "Divine Thought Thousand Threads"

The red cover was "Blood Burning"

Finally, there was a silver metal sphere and a silver bracelet.

Lin Qi took out the silver bracelet first, which was unusually cool, and he put it on his right hand, close to his skin.

Star Fire said on the side:

"Your current space bracelet needs to confirm your genetic code before it can be opened!"

Lin Qi was stunned: "Blood recognition?"

Star Fire nodded: "You can think so!"

"Blood is best, hair, skin, these are all fine; put the blood on the bracelet!"

Lin Qi nodded, used the black-gold great spear to cut a small opening on his thumb.

A drop of rich fresh blood dripped onto the bracelet, and the next second, the patterns on the surface of the bracelet lit up.

Invisible light scanned Lin Qi's body, and he seemed to sense a huge space.

"You open it with spiritual power!"

Lin Qi nodded, picked up the black-gold great spear, and began to try, communicating with spiritual power; the next second, the great spear disappeared.

Lin Qi felt that there was an extra black-gold great spear in the void space.

He moved his spirit, and the black-gold great spear appeared in his hand out of thin air.

Very magical, the technological content was too high.

Humans currently didn't even have any news about space equipment.

Then he tried it again, and soon he skillfully mastered the space bracelet.

The bracelet was attached to his wrist like a tattoo and would not affect his movements.

Finally, he helped Xiao Chan change into a body.

"Buzz, buzz!!"

Like flowing water, Xiao Chan condensed a body, with a tall figure, wearing a silver combat suit, and even condensed a combat sword.

Compared to before, the aura on her body also became more powerful, carrying invisible pressure.

Lin Qi felt that he might not be able to beat Xiao Chan now.

Now Xiao Chan was already equivalent to an ordinary Ninth Realm martial artist.

Star Fire said on the side: "Your intelligent life's wisdom level is not enough!"

"But there is also a chance in the future, like me, to truly become a life."

"In the universe, it is said that some intelligent lives can already autonomously condense flesh and blood and practice!"

Lin Qi exclaimed after hearing this: "Intelligent life can also practice?"

The red-clothed Star Fire nodded: "That's natural!"

"The universe is too big, the human race has developed for billions of years, and technology has developed to a very high level!"

"There are also some true top-tier powerhouses whose strength you can't imagine."

Lin Qi revealed a curious look after hearing this and asked:

"Can you tell me about the universe, and the cultivation system after the Ninth Realm title-level?"

Star Fire sat cross-legged opposite Lin Qi.

In an instant, the entire virtual room began to simplify, and the surroundings were simulated into a brilliant starry sky, extremely gorgeous.

The red-clothed Star Fire spoke slowly:

"Your talent is not bad, and you might have hope of breaking through to the Universe Third Realm in the future!"

"I'll give you a simple introduction to the situation of the universe."

"The universe is vast, boundless, and vast; no one knows how big it is!"

"The entire universe has been born for more than ten billion years, and has given birth to various races; there is no specific number, we collectively call them the Ten Thousand Races of the Universe!"

"Our human race is also one of the ten thousand races."

"The ten thousand races fight for the territory and resources of the universe, fight for survival, and have erupted with a large number of racial wars!"

"Countless races died in the war, and at the same time, there were races that rose!"

"Once our human race was extremely weak, and after millions of years of blood and tears, we rose to become one of the most powerful peak races among the ten thousand races."

As Star Fire spoke, countless races appeared out of thin air in the starry sky; some were giant monsters with huge bodies, and some looked like humans but had wings on their backs.

Lin Qi saw the figures of monster beasts, Zerg, and humans.

They were all terrifyingly strong, crossing the starry sky, fighting in the universe, and the aftermath could destroy a planet.

The red-clothed Star Fire continued to say:

"We humans have formed a vast territory through billions of years, and we humans often fight with other races!"

"Among them, the most common are the Monster Race and the Zerg Race!"

"The Monster Race and the Zerg Race are also one of the peak races among the ten thousand races, and they are powerful."

"And the disaster beasts you are familiar with are the planet-attacking cannon fodder made by the Monster Race!"

Lin Qi widened his eyes after hearing this, shocked in his heart, and said: "Disaster beasts are actually just cannon fodder?"

Star Fire nodded: "That's right, disaster beasts are cannon fodder to the Monster Race; they don't have much wisdom."

"After being manufactured, they are used specifically to deal with our other races, among which the main opponent is our human race."

"As long as disaster beasts smell the aura of humans, they will go crazy, and their genetic instinct makes them launch a charge!"

Lin Qi suddenly realized: "No wonder every time disaster beasts appear, they launch attacks without fear of death!"

Star Fire's hand projected a huge life planet.

"The other world we are in is actually a disaster beast factory manufactured by the Monster Race!"

"Constantly producing disaster beasts, launching attacks on some weak planets!!"

"And this planet was captured by our Star Fire Civilization and became a trophy, used as the No. 5 trial planet."

"Treating disaster beasts as trial targets, I also came to the planet at that time!"

"But later a battle of top-tier powerhouses broke out, our Star Fire Civilization was passively involved in the war, and was destroyed by the joint efforts of the Monster Race and the Zerg Race."

"The martial artists on the No. 5 trial planet all died in battle, were involved in space turbulence, and the martial artists on the Star Peak also died one after another."

"Before the captain died, he sensed the result and modified my permissions, letting me encounter weak human civilizations and provide help."

When the red-clothed Star Fire said this, a sorrowful expression also appeared on her little face.

Lin Qi exhaled, his expression shocked.

The war between the universe was too cruel, and even a 【Mid-level Civilization】 like the Star Fire Civilization was destroyed.

Star Fire put away her emotions and continued to project nine human figures, each with an increasingly powerful aura.

She continued to speak:

"The universe has source energy, which is the source of transcendence, and the ten thousand races evolve by absorbing source energy!"

"Every race has its own cultivation system — Martial Dao!"

"Our human race is the same, which is the so-called universe source energy martial dao, divided into several realms!"

"And your Blue Star Civilization's so-called nine major passes of martial dao, nine realms, are actually nine small realms within the Universe First Realm!"

"Blood Exchange Realm is the seventh small realm, followed by the Aperture-Practicing Realm, among which the Sky-Floating Realm is also what you call the Ninth Realm title-level martial artist."

"Sky-Floating Realm martial artists can get rid of planetary gravity, fly in the sky, and can even survive briefly in the universe!"

"Only by breaking through the Sky-Floating Realm and breaking through to the Universe Second Realm can one survive in the universe and cross the starry sky with a physical body!"

"It's already very good for a planet to be able to give birth to one Universe Second Realm martial artist." 【549-15

"And the three realms of the universe are the highest level even among 【Primary Civilizations】; they possess dozens of life-bearing planets under their command and are free and unfettered!"

Lin Qi marveled inwardly, never expecting that their human Ninth Realm powerhouses were merely existences within the first realm.

In the universe, they are also low-level existences.

They cannot even manage to live in the universe.

Xinghuo continued to speak:

"Our humanity is composed of countless civilizations, divided by strength into 【Primary Civilizations】, 【Intermediate Civilizations】, and 【Advanced Civilizations】."

"【Primary Civilizations】 govern life-bearing planets, 【Intermediate Civilizations】 govern star systems, and 【Advanced Civilizations】 govern star regions."

"Our human territory consists of over a hundred star regions, each star region is made up of more or fewer star systems, and each star system contains countless life-bearing planets."

"Our 【Star Fire Civilization】 had originally developed to the limit of a 【Primary Civilization】 and had already birthed powerhouses of the four realms of the universe."

"We were about to upgrade to an 【Intermediate Civilization】 when we encountered a catastrophic disaster."

Lin Qi nodded; he inferred from Xinghuo's words that to upgrade a civilization, one must meet top-tier conditions.

However, the gap between Primary Civilizations is also enormous.

Their Blue Star civilization, which doesn't even have a second realm of the universe, and the Star Fire civilization, which has a third realm of the universe, are both merely Primary Civilizations.

But the universe was still too far away for him.

He is currently only a Seventh Realm blood-exchanging martial artist.

He hasn't even broken through to the Eighth Realm.

The surrounding simulation dissipated, and the red-clad Xinghuo continued to speak:

"I once told the strongest person of your Blue Star—the Red Emperor—about the knowledge of the universe!"

"For so many years, you have never made contact with the universe; this is correct!"

"But you will eventually have to make contact with the universe; when that time comes, the crisis of your civilization will also arrive."

"If you don't want your civilization to be swallowed by other greedy civilizations, you had better become strong quickly."

Lin Qi nodded secretly; he had never forgotten to become stronger.

After all, the invasion of the disaster beasts had not yet been resolved; he must become stronger quickly.

Once he breaks through to the Eighth Realm, with the "World-Ending Spear Canon" in hand, he will be able to kill more disaster beasts, and obtaining merit points will not be difficult.

After breaking through to the Eighth Realm, his cultivation speed can be further increased.

Perhaps he might even be able to cross realms to kill a Level Nine disaster beast.

After the two chatted for a while, Xinghuo's mechanical body left the virtual room.

The projected Xinghuo continued to speak:

"By the way, Lin Qi, once a monster reaches adulthood, it is at least a Level Ten existence."

"This corresponds to our universe's second realm; in the entire other world, Level Ten monsters are not rare. You must never let them gather together."

"And there are the Zerg; every Zerg broodmother is a legion, and they can continuously hatch Zerg warriors."

"Once a Zerg broodmother grows up, the weakest is also a second realm existence of the universe."

"Once you encounter these two situations, you humans will not be able to resist at all!"

Lin Qi nodded with a serious expression: "I understand!"

Level Ten monsters correspond to the second realm of the universe.

Lin Qi had already felt their strength.

Each one requires several Ninth Realm martial artists to confront.

If two launch an attack at the same time, no war base can withstand it.

However, he himself is currently only a Seventh Realm martial artist.

Lin Qi always has a feeling that he has suddenly become a "tall person" who needs to hold up the sky for the Blue Star civilization.

At present, there is the threat brought by the disaster beasts, and in the future, there is the crisis from the universe.

He thought of the Zerg again; King Shanhe said that he had already passed the meeting of the Star-Governing Palace to root out the Zerg.

He wondered if it had been resolved.

He glanced at the time on the wall; he had now been at the No. 9 ruins for 40 days.

There were 10 days left before he could go back.

Thinking of this, he opened the metal box again and saw the three secret manuals inside.

He picked up the red secret technique "Blood Burning" and began to flip through it.

He was very curious about this secret technique.

The book was not thick, only one-fifth of the "World-Ending Spear Canon."

Lin Qi finished reading it very quickly, his eyes full of admiration:

"So a secret technique can be used like this, stimulating the body's potential to erupt with stronger combat power."

"Stimulating the survival instinct deep within the body's bloodline, letting it manifest to form a skill."

"With our Blue Star's current martial path strength, we are still unable to create it."

"And this secret technique is not difficult; as long as one has the comprehension of a B-grade genius, one can learn it."

"Once a large number of geniuses learn it, our Blue Star's overall combat power can be greatly improved."

"The most critical thing is that I might be able to earn an unimaginable amount of money!"

Lin Qi thought that everyone could learn this secret technique, and Xinghuo didn't say it couldn't be taught to others.

If everyone learns it once and pays a sum of money, even if the price isn't expensive, it will accumulate, and it will be enough for him to become one of the richest people on Blue Star.

Lin Qi calmed his mood and put down the secret technique.

He sat cross-legged and began to enter cultivation.

The fourth floor of the Star Fire Tower had been passed, and there were 10 days left; he could not waste them.

He had to make use of them to get himself closer to the ninth blood exchange.

Time passed slowly, and the geniuses at the No. 9 ruins were still working hard to improve their rankings and strive for better rewards.

Some Eighth Realm martial artists passed the assessment, obtained the opportunity to break through to the Ninth Realm, and successfully broke through.

After the Zerg disappeared, the entire Blue Star returned to a long-lost, brief peace.

In the blink of an eye, 10 days passed.

Martial Path Calendar, January 23, 2049.

The Spring Festival of the Xia Guo was also getting closer and closer.

Beijiang Province, Black Dragon Base.

A silver-bodied Falcon fighter jet soared into the sky and disappeared into the horizon amidst the blizzard.

Inside the cabin, King Shanhe, dressed in silver armor, looked at the large screen projected in front of him, his resolute face lost in thought.

"I wonder which floor of the Star Fire Tower Lin Qi was able to pass!"

"At worst, he can obtain the most suitable spear technique secret manual."

"With his talent, once he breaks through to the Eighth Realm, his strength will also receive a huge boost."

"The Red Emperor has already entered the universe's virtual network; I wonder how he is doing now?"

"It really is worrying!"

"The great trend of history rolls forward; what will the future of our Blue Star be like?"
