Chapter 199: 50000

As time and space shifted, when the world before Lin Qing returned to normal, he had already appeared on the vast silver-white platform of the Void Great Tomb.

On the platform still stood those bizarrely shaped structures, and in the endless darkness all around floated countless massive silver-white pyramids, emitting a faint glow.

"You're back so soon?"

She saw a black-haired woman in a golden long dress standing not far away, regarding him with a half-smile, "Not bad, you are already a God-Child."

"Your Highness Su," Lin Qing showed a slight smile and said, "I don't have much time to waste, so after the Divine Duty Trial concluded and I finished my business, I came to disturb you."

"Trivial matter."

Your Highness Su smiled and said, "Do you have a goal this time?"

"I heard that one condition to become a Tomb Keeper is being a Primordial Realm Star-level citizen?" Lin Qing asked, "What are the requirements for a Primordial Realm Star-level citizen?"

"Primordial Realm Star-level citizen? The requirements are quite simple."

Your Highness Su said casually, "As long as you have not transformed into a star for more than thirty years, and can easily sweep through the eighth layer of the Yu Xingyuan."

"Sweep through the eighth layer of the Yu Xingyuan..." Lin Qing also felt somewhat unsure.

Generally, Star-level Divine Duty Practitioners, although possessing the strength of the eighth layer of the Yu Xingyuan, are far from being able to easily sweep through the eighth layer.

He relied on the World God's complete form to make up for the gap in life level and Divine Duty, mainly relying on genetic advantages, so he truly might not have the strength to easily sweep through the eighth layer of the Yu Xingyuan.

"The power of the World God is indeed strong enough; with your genetic index, if you can master the complete form of a Level Seven World God, you will basically have the confidence," Your Highness Su said.

"Just the complete form is enough?" Lin Qing's eyes lit up, and he felt relieved.

He immediately nodded and said, "Thank you for your guidance, Your Highness Su, then I will begin my seclusion."

"So confident?" Your Highness Su looked him over, "Go ahead."

On the vast, boundless white land, Lin Qing sat cross-legged in silence, and not far away was his Black Flame Clone, also in a state of contemplation.

In fact, with his current life level, even the improved comprehension and deduction abilities gained after the Black Flame Clone burned were inferior to his, so the Black Flame Clone was mainly contemplating the essential power required for the Level Six Divine Skill of the "Seven-Colored Fire."

And he, the original body, would focus on the Level Seven World God.

"This time... not only the World God, but the key is that I must successfully cultivate the Warlord's combined Divine Skill, 'Primordial Annihilation'."

Lin Qing pondered silently.

The two combined Divine Skills, Primordial Annihilation and World God, could originally form a combination.

Moreover, the key was that he needed to rely on the Warlord Divine Duty to promote evolution, so he must use the Warlord's Divine Duty ability to command divine weapons to kill enemies; killing enemies with the World God would not increase the 'experience bar'.

"Karduan has already comprehended most of the essential power required for these two great Divine Skills."

"It shouldn't take too long."

Lin Qing planned silently in his heart, "The Black Flame Clone won't have time to master the seven flame Divine Skills of the Seven-Colored Fire, but as long as it masters two or three of them, it will have absolute confidence to pass the Primordial-level Divine Duty Trial."

Three great Divine Skills.

World God, Primordial Annihilation, Seven-Colored Fire; he needed to cultivate all of them, but there was a distinction between primary and secondary importance.

World God and Primordial Annihilation were what the original body must master, while the Seven-Colored Fire could wait a bit.

As long as the Seven-Colored Fire is mastered, the Black Flame Clone will also become an important combat force in the future.

"Let's begin."

Lin Qing closed his eyes and immediately began the longest seclusion of his life.

Mars.

Massive and towering space fortresses and military bases were located here; the entire planet Mars had been thoroughly transformed, with facilities and traces of interstellar civilization everywhere.

Among them, the most towering and conspicuous was that massive fortress resembling a pure black statue.

That giant human-shaped fortress, over ten thousand meters high, floated silently in the sky, as if looking down upon this planet filled with wind and sand.

This was the Yuan Chen civilization's most valued Seventh-Tier Fortress, 'Star Walker'.

At this moment, in the forehead of the humanoid statue fortress, within that semi-transparent crystal resembling a vertical eye, was a hall like a temple.

A middle-aged man with a black long robe, waist-length crimson hair like blood, and a tall figure stood by the window, his gaze seemingly penetrating Mars's atmosphere, gazing silently at that water-blue planet tens of millions of kilometers away.

"Lord Chancellor Karl Lei Si."

Suddenly, a female Zhixing person with a black vertical eye on her forehead entered and respectfully said, "Just now, the informant from Earth finally confirmed... the Lone Star Fortress has been moved by Chu Hongjun. Although it is uncertain what Chu Hongjun intends to do, the Lone Star Fortress has definitely been destroyed."

The red-haired middle-aged man fell silent for a moment before speaking, "Mr. Karduan has confirmed he is confident in seizing Lin Qing's eye. As long as we can capture him, so... eleven months from now, once Earth opens, we must capture Lin Qing alive immediately."

"Does Lord Chancellor mean... it is more important than the Pre-Civilization Treasures of Earth?" the female Zhixing person asked.

"Yes."

The red-haired middle-aged man said slowly, "Analyzing the information left by Lei Tong, that Lin Qing relies on the Ninth-Level spatial ability of the Three-Eyed Clan to ignore the walls of the Lone Star Fortress and invade directly inside; even with absolutely perfect spatial layer separation, he can infiltrate the Lone Star Fortress. That ability is obviously very special."

He took a deep breath and said, "If I can obtain that eye and possess Ninth-Level abilities and talents, the Yuan Chen civilization will also become a Level 1.9 civilization!"

The female Zhixing person hesitated for a moment and said, "Lord Chancellor is the greatest genius in the history of our Yuan Chen civilization; even without transplanting the Three-Eyed Clan's eye, you have reached this stage. Once you obtain that eye, naturally you can lead the Yuan Chen civilization toward an even more brilliant future, but..."

She paused, then said, "The ruins of Earth civilization come from a Level Two civilization, and there is even a chance to awaken authority, perhaps allowing our Yuan Chen civilization to advance to a Level Two civilization?"

The red-haired middle-aged man looked at her and said faintly, "Even if the authority is awakened, we may not have the strength to become a Level Two civilization."

"Moreover, the Nine-Star Civilization has also noticed Earth. Our two Seventh-Tier Fortresses were given by the Nine-Star Civilization; what do we have to compete with a Level 1.9 civilization?"

"But as long as I become a Void Being, I will be qualified to truly divide Earth's treasures with the Nine-Star Civilization!"

The red-haired middle-aged man said, "With my strength in mastering Divine Skills, once I transform into a Void Being, even the Ancestor of the Nine-Star Civilization will have to be polite to me. Only then will it be the moment for our Yuan Chen civilization to rise."

He said coldly, "Remember, what you are not qualified to obtain, even if you temporarily get it in hand, will eventually be lost in another way."

"Yes, Lord Chancellor," the female Zhixing person nodded, then added, "However, since the Nine-Star Civilization already knows, why haven't they sent anyone yet?"

"The Nine-Star Civilization, I fear, only the royal family member who entered Earth back then, and the high-level members of that branch, know about Earth."

The red-haired middle-aged man said calmly, "I suppose so; those royal family members of the Nine-Star Civilization are all fighting for the throne. That Imperial Prince, knowing of a treasure like Earth, naturally thinks of hoarding it privately; otherwise, if the Nine-Star Civilization's army arrives, where would our share be?"

The female Zhi Xing star nodded and said, "This also gives us a chance to get a share."

"I fear we won't get much of a share."

The middle-aged man with red hair shook his head and said, "A civilization of level 1.9 is still too powerful. Although that Nine-Star Ancestor failed to open a true Void Secret Realm, he could still increase the probability of geniuses being born on perfect planets. With his understanding and attainment in analyzing the Void, he could even cultivate geniuses of Divine Techniques."

He sighed, "Even just the branch faction of the Imperial Family behind that Imperial Prince is stronger than many level 1.8 civilizations."

He had the honor of paying homage to that Nine-Star Civilization's Ancestor and had also heard legends of Void Beings. All rule operations in the universe are based on space and time.

Therefore, any Void Being can see the essence of many rule operations in the universe through space.

And Divine Techniques are centered on certain special rules in the universe.

This means...

Every Void Being possesses a Divine Technique and is skilled at guiding and teaching others, making it easier for those geniuses to master Divine Techniques.

That is why a level 1.9 civilization is so powerful.

"Eleven months remain."

The middle-aged man with red hair said, "When Earth opens, our first target will be Lin Qing, and only secondly will we cooperate with that Imperial Prince to obtain Earth's treasures. Even if we suffer some losses, it doesn't matter."

"Yes." The female Zhi Xing star nodded.

"How has Mr. Kaduan been lately?" the middle-aged man with red hair said. "He has made many sacrifices for our Yuanchen Civilization. Try your best to help him restore his strength; no matter how great the cost, it is acceptable."

"Lord Kaduan is a scholarly Divine Official. Promoting the evolution of a Divine Official also requires time."

No mistakes, one sentence, one content, all inside, one look!

The female Zhi Xing star said, "However, Lord Kaduan has recently been focusing on researching various life structure characteristics, saying he wants to more efficiently and perfectly deprive Lin Qing of that eye."

"Mr. Kaduan has worked hard." The middle-aged man with red hair said slowly, "If Mr. Kaduan has any requests, try your best to fulfill them."

"By the way, Mr. Kaduan told me a while ago that he might find an opportunity in the future to exchange ideas with scholars from the Black Tower Civilization." The female Zhi Xing star said.

"You arrange it."

The middle-aged man with red hair nodded and added, "Also, do not let Mr. Kaduan stray too far from me. He is an extremely important figure for our Yuanchen Civilization now and must be protected at all times."

An endless expanse of pure white ground.

"Finally..."

Lin Qing slowly exhaled, feeling his current state, and couldn't help but shake his head slightly: "It actually took over seventy months to successfully solidify the World God of the seventh energy level. I only succeeded after mastering Primordial Annihilation..."

In fact, as early as four or five years ago, he had already mastered the World God of the seventh energy level.

After all, with the dozens of seventh energy level power essences from Kaduan, the only thing missing for the World God of the seventh energy level was four power essences.

Even though the power essences of the seventh energy level were harder to comprehend, he succeeded in just one or two years.

However, solidifying the World God also required sufficient research into life structures and characteristics. Therefore, even with Kaduan's clone outside checking data and continuously conducting research and experiments, it still took him four or five years to succeed.

Of course, during this period, he also learned other Divine Techniques on the side.

After all, being idle was the same as being idle.

"I can go out now."

Lin Qing glanced at the Black Flame clone not far away and immediately used a different space to suck the Black Flame clone inside.

"It's only been a little over seven months, which is just six years for you. Do you already have confidence?"

Princess Su sized up Lin Qing and said, "Let me remind you, the trial for a Star-Level subject of the Primordial Realm is a one-time opportunity. If you fail, you must wait until your life level evolves again, reaching Ultimate Star Being, before you can try once more."

Lin Qing nodded and said, "I currently have no room for improvement."

Of course, in fact, he had already tried during the Yu Xingyuan Trial.

"Good, go ahead."

Princess Su pointed to the silvery-white building not far away that looked like a silkworm pupa and said, "It's the same place as last time. That is where the trial for subjects of the Primordial Realm was once held. The difficulty of the trial for Star-Level subjects is higher."

Lin Qing nodded and immediately walked in quickly.

As he approached that strange building resembling a silkworm pupa, the building immediately emitted a ripple of fluctuation that swept over him.

Afterwards, the silvery-white silkworm-pupa-shaped building slowly revealed a passage entrance like a black hole.

Lin Qing immediately walked in.

Everything before his eyes began to change quietly. When the world before him returned to normal, he found himself appearing in the boundless universe of space. In the distance, a universe spaceship hundreds of kilometers long was visible, entirely black.

"Trial participant: survive for thirty seconds, or destroy all Mechanical Race warriors, to pass the trial."

At this moment, a indifferent voice echoed within this space.

From within that incomparably massive black universe spaceship, countless Mechanical Race warriors of various forms immediately flew out, all heading towards Lin Qing.

Lin Qing hovered in space, watching as a vast number of Mechanical Race warriors, like a tsunami wave in space, swept down upon him from all directions.

"Boom!!"

Suddenly, dazzling dark golden energy exploded violently. The terrifying explosion was like a dazzling star appearing in the universe, instantly engulfing the Mechanical Race warriors attacking him.

A short while later, Lin Qing walked out of the trial building.

"You actually succeeded?"

Princess Su looked at Lin Qing and couldn't help but sigh, "How long have you been cultivating? Your comprehension is truly extraordinary."

"Then... from now on, am I a Star-Level subject of the Primordial Realm?" Lin Qing asked.

"Of course." Princess Su nodded slightly.

She paused and said, "As a Star-Level subject of the Primordial Realm, you are qualified to receive a gift bestowed by the Primordial Realm. You can want any type; just state it."

Lin Qing said without hesitation, "I want a treasure that is greatly beneficial to the gene index."

"Oh?"

Princess Su sized him up and said, "Of course."

She saw her fingertip trace through the void as if opening a tear; a rift appeared in space, and from it floated a six-sided, strange, transparent crystal.

"What is this?" Lin Qing could not help but ask.

"This is a drop of bloodline from the Void God Clan of the Life System."

Princess Su spoke softly, "The innate genetic index of the Void God Clan and the Yu Xingyuan Demon Clan far exceeds that of all living beings in the universe. As long as you fuse this drop of Void God Clan bloodline, your genetic index will reach at least five hundred times the universal standard, that is, 50,000%."

"50,000%?" Lin Qing could not help but look at the six-sided transparent crystal in astonishment.
