Chapter 242: Sleepiness Brings a Pillow

Bai Ta World, Xianlian Shengxing City.

Since the defeat in the Civilization War of the Bai Ta World, the Tianze Group has also occupied a plot of land in the central area of Xianlian Shengxing City and built a towering, massive branch office.

At the top of the Tianze Group, inside the conference room.

Villo stood before a wall as huge as a mirror, looking at his reflection.

And that tall, golden-haired masked woman was standing behind him at this moment.

"Young master, the contract has been signed. Modifying the contract so suddenly, the Void Sovereign of the Tianyuan Seat civilization probably won't agree easily either," the golden-haired masked woman said softly.

"What can be done?"

Villo shook his head slightly. "As long as that half of the King's Token isn't obtained, no one can enter the Legacy of the Kings. Are we to kill that Master Jingguang and make an enemy for life with him?"

Even ordinary Level 2 civilizations can resurrect the dead, let alone a Level 2.9 civilization.

He took a deep breath and said, "Fortunately, Master Jingguang is a Star God genius of the Tianyuan Seat civilization. Although that Void Sovereign holds a high status in the Tianyuan Seat, he shouldn't be much better than a Star God. In principle, he should give face to a fellow Star God."

While speaking, Villo flipped his hand to produce a gold-red crystal pillar and began to infuse it with power.

The crystal pillar radiated intense light and flew up into the air on its own. Under the slight vibration of terrifying power, it instantly tore a thread-like rift in space, seemingly connecting to some distant higher-dimensional space.

Immediately, points of starlight flew out from the spatial rift, condensing into an absolutely beautiful woman in magnificent attire, with the faint shadow of a massive, majestic Wang Zuo visible behind her.

"My lord Xing Yin," Villo said respectfully.

The beautiful woman glanced at him and said indifferently, "What urgent matter couldn't be contacted via the Second Universe Network, forcing me to descend an avatar?"

"If it weren't an urgent matter, I wouldn't dare to use the treasure granted by My lord Xing Yin," Villo immediately said respectfully. "It is like this: this time I went to the Endless Deep Pool..."

After Villo explained clearly, Xing Yin frowned slightly and said, "A Star God of our Tianyuan Seat civilization?"

"Presumably so," Villo said. "Moreover, this Star God who calls himself Master Jingguang is indeed someone extremely favored by the universe. In the Endless Deep Pool, he not only obtained the King's Token but also acquired a Divine Artifact. Obviously, his luck is extremely good; he is probably even more favored by the universe than I am."

"Is that so?"

Xing Yin pondered for a moment and said, "Let me check first which Star God went to your Bai Ta World. If possible, it would be best if I speak with him personally."

"Yes," Villo breathed a sigh of relief. "My lord and Mr. Master Jingguang are fellow townspeople; it would be best if you went to talk personally."

Xing Yin fell silent for a long while, then suddenly frowned and said, "Within the Bai Ta Civilization World, there is no Star God of our Tianyuan Seat civilization; in fact, no Star God has entered the Bai Ta Civilization at all."

"He must have disguised himself," Villo said.

"You don't understand."

Xing Yin said indifferently, "My father, as a direct disciple of the Progenitor, has the authority to investigate the tracks of nearly all Star Gods within our Tianyuan Seat civilization, but after his investigation just now, he found nothing."

Villo was momentarily stunned and couldn't help but say, "Could he be a fake?"

"Three possibilities," Xing Yin said coldly. "First, he is a Star God from the other two Holy Sites—the Spacetime Island or the Pantheon—deliberately pretending to be from our Tianyuan Seat. But I don't understand the meaning of telling such a lie; Holy Site Star Gods also disdain telling such lies, so the possibility is extremely small."

She paused and said, "Second, he is indeed a Star God of our Tianyuan Seat civilization, but his authority is so high that even my father is not qualified to investigate his tracks."

Villo was stunned and asked, "Is there a Star God of such status?"

He knew that the Progenitors of the three Holy Sites were truly great existences invincible in the Void Sea; the direct disciples of such existences could also be said to be invincible and roaming freely in the Void Sea, far from ordinary Void Divine Officials. One can imagine how high their status is!

There are actually Star Gods that even the direct disciples of Holy Site Progenitors cannot investigate?

"Of course there are," Xing Yin said, too lazy to explain, only speaking softly. "But there are very few, and I know those few; there isn't such a little fellow who has just transformed into a Void Being."

This secret involved that My lord who stands equal with the Progenitor, so she didn't dare to speak much.

Even if the Holy Site is destroyed, that My lord is an eternal existence and will never perish.

"The first two possibilities are extremely small, so what about the third possibility?" Villo couldn't help but ask.

Xing Yin said coldly, "He is not a Star God of the Holy Sites at all; he is just pretending in order to borrow momentum."

"Pretending..."

Villo murmured incredulously, "Someone actually dares to disguise themselves as a Star God of the three Holy Sites?"

"In fact, didn't you believe it too?" Xing Yin said indifferently. "The three Holy Sites jump out of the universe and form their own spacetime; only a very few walk in the Void Sea. This time, if he hadn't involved my father, a true direct disciple of the Progenitor, who could expose him?"

Villo took a deep breath and said, "This is simply too audacious."

He paused and said, "However, this Master Jingguang does indeed know how to refine Divine Artifacts, and his skill is not bad."

Xing Yin fell silent for a moment and said, "Although I think it is highly likely to be a disguise, the first two possibilities are not completely impossible. We still have to confirm it; otherwise, if it really turns out to be a misunderstanding, it will be very troublesome."

She pondered for a long while before saying, "If he is a Star God from the other two Holy Sites, there is no need to worry too much about him. I will pay some price to buy the King's Token from him."

Villo couldn't help but ask in confusion, "My lord is unwilling to give him that Void-level trial slot?"

"My disciple needs this slot," Xing Yin said flatly. "Other Holy Sites cannot get in my way. If I order him to hand it over in my father's name, would he dare not give face?"

Villo nodded slightly.

As a direct disciple of the Progenitor of the Tianyuan Seat Holy Site, he is an absolute high-level figure in the Tianyuan Seat civilization; as long as he stomps his foot, the entire Void Sea will tremble.

"Then what if he is not a Holy Site Star God, but just a pretender?" Villo asked.

"Then kill him."

Xing Yin said softly, "Even if he hides the King's Token, it doesn't matter. I will ask that Prophet to investigate again. Even if he hides the King's Token in his hometown secret realm, besides the Holy Sites, which secret realm dares to stop me?"

Of course...

Even if it is confirmed that the other party is not a Star God from the other two Holy Sites, she will also ask her father for help to inquire, to see if he is one of those few Star Gods that even her father cannot investigate.

No matter what, anything involving those few must be confirmed, even if the possibility is only one in ten thousand.

This is also what her father taught her since childhood: one may look down on them, but one must not ignore them.

"My lord, what method do you plan to use to confirm whether that Master Jingguang is a Holy Site Star God?" Villo asked.

"Give this object to him."

Xing Yin flipped her hand, and instantly a stream of light transformed into a miniature dark-green glazed throne, landing before Villo.

"The consciousness space within this throne contains many marks left by Void Sovereigns when they created Divine Skills using complete spatial rules. The will impact within can temper the will, and it also has the effect of providing reference and ideas, which is helpful for creating one's own Divine Skills."

Xing Yin said coldly, "This throne also represents an opportunity to connect to the 'Tianyuan Treasury', but only people of our Tianyuan Seat civilization are qualified to enter the Tianyuan Treasury. If he is an outsider, naturally he cannot enter."

"Helpful for creating one's own Divine Skills?" Villo was somewhat shocked. "Such a treasure..."

"Indeed, it counts as a fine treasure," Xing Yin said. "But it only offers some ideas; its actual utility is limited. It is mainly an opportunity to connect to the Tianyuan Treasury. If he truly is a Star God from another Holy Land, consider this compensation for him."

Viero had nothing to say.

For such a treasure, only the high-ranking members of the Three Great Holy Lands would consider its utility limited...

"Does the plan need to be delayed a bit longer?"

Lin Qing looked at Viero, who had suddenly arrived for a visit, and asked, "How much longer?"

"Uncertain," Viero said. "But it will not exceed ten thousand years."

He flipped his hand and produced a miniature dark-green glazed throne.

"This is a gift of apology from the Void Sovereign of that Tianyuan Seat civilization," Viero said.

"Apology?" Lin Qing glanced at him.

Yet in his heart, he harbored some suspicion. Could it be that the Void Sovereign of the Tianyuan Seat civilization suspected he was not a Star God of the Tianyuan Seat civilization?

Perhaps... this was a test?

But Lin Qing was well prepared and did not care if his true or false nature was discovered. He accepted this so-called apology and said, "Very well, I shall accept it."

Seeing Lin Qing so confident and calm, Viero secretly wondered inwardly: Could it be that he is not pretending?

However...

!

Whether true or false, it will be revealed very soon.

"Then I shall not disturb Mr. Master Jingguang," Viero said immediately before departing.

After Viero left, Lin Qing looked at the small, miniature dark-green glazed throne in his hand. He was not in a hurry to use it; instead, he first stored it within the extra-dimensional space of the vertical eye in his forehead.

Immediately afterward, he dissolved himself into energy and resurrected again through the Black Flame Clone on the other side of the Vacuum Great Tomb.

— This was also the method he used for traveling.

In fact, this is an application method of the vertical eye in the forehead. If it were the internal void, once he died, the internal void would also collapse, and all items within it would explode out.

But the extra-dimensional space of the vertical eye in the forehead connects to his consciousness; even if his body dissipates, the extra-dimensional space of the vertical eye in the forehead will not collapse.

Using this method, transporting items is also very convenient.

For such an item of unknown origin, he naturally would not use it directly; it would be best to consult the Crown Prince Su.

"This thing..."

Holding the small, miniature dark-green glazed throne, Crown Prince Su examined it and said, "It is somewhat useful to you. It contains the imprints left by thousands of Void Sovereigns when they created Divine Arts using complete spatial laws. It might offer some inspiration for your ideas, but its actual utility is average; after all, a theoretical conception is merely a conception."

"Oh?" Lin Qing's eyes lit up.

What he needed most was exactly this kind of treasure that could provide him with ideas and inspire him.

After all...

When he creates a Divine Art, he only needs a conception that is theoretically feasible!

"A good thing..."

Lin Qing felt quite expectant; just then, he still found creating Divine Arts somewhat difficult.

Wasn't this like someone bringing a pillow just as he felt sleepy?

"The most useful aspect of this thing is actually connecting to a treasury located in the spacetime of a Level 2.9 civilization."

Crown Prince Su said, "This should be the method used by the Tianyuan Seat civilization to reward their own geniuses. As long as one uses this item to create a Divine Art, one can connect to that treasury."

She glanced at Lin Qing again and said, "But you are not a person of that civilization; you cannot connect to that treasury, so this thing is of no use to you."

"Treasury?" Lin Qing suddenly understood.

It seemed this was the method used by the people of the Tianyuan Seat civilization to test him.

However, he did not care.

Even if the opponent were a Void Sovereign capable of killing him, as long as his clone did not die, he could resurrect again.

Even if he encountered soul attacks or other methods capable of killing him through the clone's connection, since he was located in the Vacuum Great Tomb, the opponent's power could not possibly penetrate in.

Therefore, he had long decided to permanently leave one clone in the Vacuum Great Tomb.

This was the guarantee of his safety.

"A treasury? It's nothing much."

Lin Qing did not care. "If I cannot connect, then so be it."

After all, what he valued were only those imprints left by the Void Sovereigns when they created Divine Arts using complete spatial laws. As long as they could provide him with ideas and inspiration, that would be even better!

As for the treasury?

He was already guarding the Vacuum Great Tomb, which is itself a treasury, so he was not very concerned.

"However, does the Vacuum Great Tomb not have such treasures?" Lin Qing asked curiously.

"No," Crown Prince Su said, shaking her head. "This is merely a graveyard; there are only burial goods. The treasures you obtained previously were all relatively rare items found among the burial goods."

She glanced at the miniature dark-green glazed throne in her hand and casually tossed it to Lin Qing. "How could such a broken thing qualify as a burial good?"

Lin Qing was stunned and caught this 'broken thing'.

So it was unworthy?

That made sense...

The Void God Clan bloodline he had previously fused with involved one of the only two Level 4 civilizations in the universe.

Compared to that, a treasure produced by a Level 2.9 civilization was not worth looking at.

"You should work hard too," Crown Prince Su said. "If you can become a Primordial Realm Void-level citizen, you will also receive an even more astonishing gift."

"Oh?"

Lin Qing's eyes lit up again, and he asked, "Roughly what level of strength is required?"

"The Sixteenth Layer of the Star Abyss, I suppose," Prince Su said casually. "Either you become a Void Sovereign, or you create a Perfect-tier Combination Divine Technique with Seven Aspects United, and only then will you have met the standard."

"That's a pretty high requirement..." Lin Qing was stunned.

In the Void Sea, even the topmost existences among Void Beings generally only create a single Divine Technique with Five Aspects United.

A Divine Technique with Seven Aspects United is something only the most peak legendary strong ones possess!

Let alone a Perfect Combination Divine Technique.

Such existences are purely legendary; even among the Void Sovereigns who master complete spatial laws, I'm afraid only a very few could achieve this.

"I will strive," Lin Qing nodded, then took the miniature Glazed Wang Zuo, turned, and walked into the cultivation room to ponder it.

After all, there are still a hundred years before Earth opens as a Void Secret Realm; during this time, I'll ponder a Divine Technique with Three Aspects United, which will also serve as laying a foundation.
