Chapter 518

Myriad Star Secret Realm.

The sky is filled with twinkling stars.

A cyan palace is galloping; it is "Qingli Palace"!

"If we all attack together this time, we can at least snatch back 700 Star Source Fruits, right?"

Fang Xing is listening to a Dharma Lord with a bull's head boasting: "Dharma Lords of the Exotic Beast Civilization like to act alone; it's really uncertain how many can come... at least in terms of numbers, they are definitely not as good as us."

"That's true; to want more people than us, unless it's the Zerg..."

Fang Xing smiles.

"Sigh... I just hope to meet the requirements, otherwise I'll either have to take another mission, or the Source Liquid share for the next hundred years will be cut by 50%..."

The Bull Dharma Lord sighs; its strength is average, only around the second-rank Dharma Lord level, and it relies on that bit of Source Liquid for daily cultivation.

Not everyone is like Fang Xing, possessing the 【Star Warrior】 trait, which can quickly absorb large amounts of source power for cultivation.

"So if one mission fails, the subsequent bestowals from the Starry Sky Civilization will be halved... until the next mission succeeds?"

Fang Xing understands; according to his inquiries, if missions fail continuously, there might even be tiered punishments.

In short, joining a large force and enjoying benefits naturally requires assuming obligations.

If one wants to be a deadbeat, those Dao Lord-level or even Eternal-level existences will come to talk reason with you.

Only under the suppression of strong power can relative fairness and responsibility be realized; this is determined by human nature being selfish.

"Attention, we are about to enter the 'Tree Zone'!"

Palace Master Qingli's unhurried voice comes.

Fang Xing looks out and sees a strange "fruit tree" ahead!

No!

That is not a tree at all, but more like a "tree stump star system," with countless light-years of silk-like light networks continuously expanding from the cluster, resembling a tree crown.

Whoosh!

Qingli Palace disappears, revealing the Dharma Lords one by one.

"Star Source Fruits have local powerhouses guarding them; the strongest among those secret realm creatures has already reached the realm of a 'fifth-rank Dharma Lord,' so going deep into the fruit tree area is seeking death... You are each responsible for an outer area, and then wait for the Star Source Fruits to descend... According to our decision with the secret realm creatures, every time the Star Source Fruits mature, a share of one thousand will fly to the outside world..."

Palace Master Qingli reveals a top-secret piece of intelligence.

This is news that was not in any previous missions.

"So the Myriad Star Fruit Tree has guardians? Also... named Myriad Star, it's possible it could produce ten thousand Star Source Fruits each time... the remaining nine thousand were intercepted by secret realm creatures... Hiss, being able to occupy the vast majority of the share under the prying eyes of two peak civilizations, this is the power of a fifth-rank Dharma Lord?"

Fang Xing presses the Void Stone, looking at the top-secret intelligence sent by Palace Master Qingli, and cannot help but be lost in thought.

The secret realm creatures guarding the Myriad Star Fruit Tree call themselves the "Star Wood Clan," and their appearance can transform between giant birds and humans, possessing tree-like skin with extremely strong defense.

And the leader of the Star Wood Clan is a fifth-rank Dharma Lord!

In this special environment of the secret realm, it can be said to be almost invincible.

Even if besieged by several fifth-rank Dharma Lords, it would definitely be able to make them pay a heavy price, or even drag people to their deaths!

Moreover, before death, it absolutely has the ability to destroy the Myriad Star Fruit Tree!

Precisely because of this, such a distribution ratio can be set.

'As for why not win them over? It's because the cost-effectiveness is too low...'

'The Star Wood Clan leader can only exert fifth-rank Dharma Lord combat power within the Myriad Star Secret Realm; once outside, it is just an ordinary fourth-rank Dharma Lord...'

'Another local tiger.'

Fang Xing lightly points, and the Blood Origin Mountain transforms into a blood-colored robe, draped over his body; his figure transforms into a stream of light, flying toward the designated area.

The virtual technology of the Starry Sky Civilization is quite powerful; even in the Myriad Star Secret Realm, the Void Stone can communicate in real-time, exchanging many messages.

"This is the place."

Fang Xing arrives at a corner of the "tree-like star system," sits on a space meteorite, and waits silently.

At the same time, a wisp of his consciousness is in the space specially opened up within the Void Stone, contacting many Dharma Lords.

"I saw a powerhouse of the Exotic Beast Civilization, 'Mad Devourer - Behemoth'! It's probably only Palace Master Qingli who can deal with it... Fortunately, I am adept at speed, and the distance is far, otherwise I would have lost this clone..."

A Dharma Lord speaks.

His true body is somewhat strange, belonging to the "Nine-Headed Clan"; this human subspecies has nine heads, and its innate divine ability can split into nine clones, with extremely strong survival ability.

Therefore, even if his strength is only a third-rank Dharma Lord, many fourth-rank Dharma Lords like to find him to team up in some exploration activities.

"Nine-Headed, is what you said true? Behemoth?"

Another Dharma Lord's face reveals a cold color: "My two brothers were swallowed alive by it on the battlefield... Palace Master Qingli, I can pay everything, even regardless of the cost, to cooperate... Can the Starry Sky Civilization change the plan and surround and kill Behemoth? This devouring giant beast is very likely to advance to a fifth-rank Dharma Lord..." Kun Wu's expression is somewhat playful, clearly having a poor impression of Xiao and liking to see him eat humble pie.

Palace Master Qingli closes his eyes slightly, then shakes his head regretfully: "Our high-level combat power can no longer spare much... And with my own strength, even defeating Behemoth is somewhat difficult, not to mention killing it... Such a giant beast has extremely tenacious vitality, not to mention it also cultivates the Law of Life... It is said that both the Law of Devouring and the Law of Life are perfect..."

Hearing this, the Dharma Lord's face cannot help but reveal a trace of sadness: "What a pity... Forget it, I'll just slowly accumulate contributions... hoping that one day, I can resurrect my brothers..."

Fang Xing hears this, and a sharp light flashes in his eyes.

For Dharma Lord powerhouses, joining a peak civilization has another benefit, which is obtaining the opportunity for resurrection!

Of course, such an opportunity is quite rare; one must be a true insider and have extremely high contributions. 'If it's not a specialized fourteenth-realm Space-Time Dao Lord, wanting to resurrect a Dharma Lord, it should require a fifteenth-realm Eternal existence to take action, right?'

'Sure enough, behind the peak civilizations, there are all terrifying foundations...'

Just as Fang Xing is thinking, another Dharma Lord speaks: "I just encountered a Yuan Yan Beast, probably with the strength of a first-rank Dharma Lord limit, but possessing the Yuan Yan Palace of the original Yuan Yan Palace Master, which can calculate as second-rank Dharma Lord combat power... According to intelligence, it should be 'Kui Lan'."

"A mere second-rank Dharma Lord, no need to pay attention."

"Yuan Yan Beasts have always acted alone, looking down on everyone except their own clan..."

"I know this Kui Lan; he is an interstellar wanderer, not belonging to any force, just here to fish for benefits this time..."

"Sigh, it's all because there are too many entrances to the Myriad Star Secret Realm, and sometimes they change positions, making it very easy to sneak in..."

Several Dharma Lords exchange intelligence, none of them taking Kui Lan to heart.

After all, even that "Yuan Yan Palace Master" of the past had to retreat when encountering their Starry Sky Civilization team.

This work is organized and uploaded by ~~

On the meteorite.

Fang Xing opens his eyes and smiles slightly: "Kui Lan is also here?"

The other party refused to reveal intelligence about the Great Xia Star lineage, which made him look at him with new eyes.

There are too many cold powerhouses in the universe who only care about interests, and too few with principles.

This Kui Lan, although his personality is a bit protective, is a good person.

"I hope he doesn't meet Behemoth or Palace Master Qingli... otherwise, even the Yuan Yan Palace might not be able to protect him."

He doesn't think too much and points casually.

A silver light appears and quickly dissipates.

No one will discover that a Dharma Lord powerhouse with perfect space-time has already quietly descended into this secret realm and teleported away.

In the void.

Fang Xing's immortal clone is wearing a standard armor with an ancient style, touching a sheathed ancient sword, waiting silently.

'The standard immortal artifacts of the True Immortal World's Dao Court placed here are also treasures not inferior to precious treasures...'

The immortal clone strokes the flying sword in his hand, and strands of sword intent bloom in his eyes.

The armor on his body is inscribed with a large number of formations, which can ignore the attacks of first-rank and second-rank Dharma Lords, and can also weaken the attacks of third-rank and fourth-rank Dharma Lords by 70-80%.

And that flying sword at the immortal artifact level has no other benefits, it is just strong and sharp enough... allowing him to fully exert his own cultivation and law comprehension.

'With my current cultivation of perfect Laws of Time and Space... my attack and evasion are probably even better than my true self, touching the edge of a fourth-rank Dharma Lord...'

Time and Space are both top-tier laws, naturally more powerful than other laws!

Not to mention, both law realms are perfect.

Even, Fang Xing has already used the power of a black hole to fuse the space-time laws; the Brother Brother Heilong of the past walked on the path of space-time law fusion.

Now that the law comprehension is deeper, although there is no Emperor Weapon, it is enough to be on par with the Brother Brother Heilong's peak period.

The immortal clone glances around.

The current him is standing in the Illusory Void Layer.

Thousands of spatial turbulence surround him, but cannot lift a single corner of his clothes.

After completely comprehending the Law of Space, the essence of space in Fang Xing's eyes can be described as looking at patterns on his palm.

Under the origin of space, layers of void are peeled open, presenting a structure like a thousand-layer cake.

From the outermost material layer, to the Void Layer, the Illusory Void Layer, and even the Great Dao Layer, the Great Dao Origin Layer...

Even, this is not the limit!

'The five-layer essence of space, above the Great Dao Origin Layer, is something I cannot peek at for now... But I can sense that the "Space-Time Indestructible Great Sun" I condensed is even above the Great Dao Origin Layer...'

'It seems that above the Great Dao Origin Layer is the scenery that can only be seen after transcendence?'

Fang Xing's gaze falls downward; from the perspective of high-dimensional space, he can almost overlook the entire Myriad Star Secret Realm.

'Now I can hide in the Illusory Void Layer for a long time, teleporting to every part of the secret realm... others cannot discover me, let alone attack...'

'If I really want to snatch the Star Source Fruits, I'm afraid neither of the two peak civilizations could snatch them from me... Hmm, has it started?'

His gaze freezes, and he sees a blue "comet" flying out of the tree-like star system.

Through the outer layer of ice and water vapor, one can see the "comet core," which is a fruit that is incomparably huge and radiates starlight...
