The Great Xia Dynasty's Longevity Begins with Connecting to the Swallowed Starry Sky

Chapter 173 A Realm Within a Realm: Universe-Level Entry Forbidden?

Nolan Mountain's plan was futile; after the other teams had already set off and entered the Thunder World, things took a turn for the worse.

When he led his team to go in, he was informed.

"We just received a notification that cosmic-level beings are not allowed to enter."

Ok?
Nuolanshan felt himself being locked onto by the cannons; if he tried to force his way in, he would likely be blasted to smithereens immediately.

"Why?"

"The result of discussions among the four major organizations, sixteen families, and two holy lands was the issuance of this order."

Okay, so that means that his Hundred Tigers Pavilion was also involved and had already agreed to it.

But why didn't he receive the message?

Just then, my wrist lit up, and an AI notification popped up, indicating that an email had arrived.

Upon opening it, I found that the content the staff had just mentioned was basically the same.

Nolan Mountain had no good solution to this, so he could only send in the small team that was with him.

"You guys go in."

Afterwards, he returned to the Hundred Tiger Tower's residence and, after some inquiries, learned that the message came from the Qianwu Universe Kingdom.

On the Black Dragon Mountain Empire side, whether it's the two holy lands, the four major organizations, or the sixteen families, they all have to take it into consideration.

In the end, I agreed.

It was just a battle between members below the cosmic level, so it could be considered a fair fight.

As for the result?

A world of thunder, which even the big shots from the Qianwu Universe Kingdom wouldn't even look at.

From that moment on, Nuolanshan knew that even if he wanted to get in, there was no way he could.

By this time, Luo Feng and the others also knew the outcome.

After a moment's thought, the three of them burst into laughter.

"With our strength, we can't even handle the Black Dragon Mountain Empire's stellar-level forces, let alone the stellar-level forces within the stellar-level realm."

"Then let's just wash up and go to sleep. Why bother going to the ultimate cosmic genius battle?"

That's true, but it's not entirely accurate either.

The Battle of the Universe's Ultimate Geniuses is a one-on-one competition, except for the preliminary rounds which are undifferentiated.

These stellar-level geniuses from the Black Dragon Mountain Empire were not the same stellar-level geniuses who participated in the Cosmic Peak Genius Battle.

But there are many stellar-sized people here.

Furthermore, it can utilize technological weapons.

After a short rest, thanks to the replenishment of spiritual liquid, they no longer needed to engage in continuous combat.

There's no need to worry too much about energy.

Before they came out, Qin Hao would give them enough spiritual liquid for each resupply.

At least it allows them to do so without worrying about restoring their energy.

To be honest, the spiritual liquid Qin Hao gave them wasn't even the highest grade.

Even with the highest grade, they are still somewhat unable to absorb the nourishment.

Hong opened his eyes and said, "Now, we have two choices."

First, collect wind-shaped stones.

Second, we can stay here and wait for the rabbit to run into our trap.

Collecting Windstones is the mercenary mission they accepted.

The second point is to guard against the people of Baihulou.

Since killing an "oversized squad" of Baihulou, they have developed a deep-seated hatred for Baihulou.

Without intervention and communication from higher-ups, they would likely face endless pursuit and killings from the Hundred Tigers Tower.

However, they were also forced into the situation; Baihulou's own people were too powerful.

After considering it for a moment, Luo Feng suggested, "We can do both. I'll set up some psychic traps here, and we can also set up some formations first."

In skirmishes, it's impossible to set up formations in real time; at most, a few people can form a formation.

But this is not a skirmish.

Having arrived here ahead of time, they could naturally set up the formation at their leisure.

Thor and Hong both agreed.

But then another problem arose.

"The wind here is too strong, and it contains the wind of the universe's origin. Therefore, the items used to set up the formation cannot be of poor quality, otherwise they will be blown away by these winds."

Thor added, "Furthermore, there are three options for collecting the Windstones."

According to the intelligence, the wind in Wind and Thunder Canyon is strongest towards the center and bottom.

The wind at the very bottom and center is like a knife!
It contains powerful primordial energy of the universe. Even a cosmic-level powerhouse who flies to the center of the canyon will be torn to shreds by the gale and will surely die.

The most dangerous part of the bottom, covered by strong winds, is also where the most wind-capped rocks are found.

Of course, there are also many wind-blown rocks that dance in the wind.

Moreover, the most dangerous thing in the entire Wind and Thunder Canyon is the lightning.

Once lightning strikes, even weaker domain lords will die instantly.

There is no chance of survival at the cosmic level.

We're only at the stellar level.

Luo Feng shook his head, pointed to their armor, and said, "But our armor is excellent; it's among the best in the Stellar class."

Its defensive capabilities are comparable to those of a cosmic-level defense.

"But it also cannot withstand a direct hit from lightning."

Thor shook his head: "Perhaps, I can give it a try."

"you……"

"Don't worry, the magic item made from the Thunder Crystal that the third brother gave me has increased my resistance to lightning. One or two times, no problem."

"It's best to be cautious, after all, once you take the hit, there are only two outcomes. And if you can't withstand it, the probability of being struck by lightning is higher." Hong said bluntly, and when he turned around, he saw Thor looking at him with a depressed expression.

"Luo Feng, there are a total of 3233 humans within a 20-kilometer radius of your team."

Just then, Babata's voice suddenly rang out.

Luo Feng was taken aback: "So many people in this Wind and Thunder Canyon?"

He even set up a telekinetic trap here, and it turned out there were quite a few people around.

Hong said, "It seems that there is no way to set up an array that covers the entire Wind and Thunder Canyon."

"Then let's find a few nodes and a few places to set up our base."

The group immediately separated.

The Heavenly Craft Pavilion offers a dedicated course on formations, which is mandatory.

Even if you don't know how to set up an array from scratch, you should still learn to set up an array according to the blueprints and using standardized tools.

Both Hong and Thor are intelligent beings who rose to prominence during the Great Nirvana and led a planet into resistance.

How could it be stupid?

Although the two of them had previously thought that it was better not to learn this formation.

But at this moment, mmm, it smells really good.

In fact, the power of this formation was very helpful during their adventures in space.

Half a day later, the three met and nodded to each other.

"Once we have a place to stay, we won't have any worries. Next, let's collect the Windstones."

During this process, Luo Feng also encountered an acquaintance who rescued him.

Afterwards, the two sides parted ways, and Luo Feng and his two companions continued their search for the Wind Corner Stone.

"here."

"Huh? How did you find such a hidden place? But what is this?"

Hong approached the cave and picked up a smooth little stone from the ground near the cave entrance.

Upon closer inspection, Hong discovered that the stone was mainly black, but its surface had a strange blue layer that looked like a coating.

The ordinary stones here are all black, or black stones with a hint of silver.

Only the surface of the wind-corner stone has a layer of deep blue halo.

Legend has it that this Wind Corner Stone was formed from a piece of strange stone that was struck by lightning but did not turn into dust. Instead, it absorbed a trace of the lightning's power.

"I never expected to be so lucky as to find a wind-shaped stone."

Having made a good start, the three became even more excited and began to explore further.

Luo Feng felt a headache coming on; the environment here was very unfriendly to him as a mentalist.

The restriction on his mental power made him very uncomfortable.

Fortunately, Babata's detector was unaffected.

"Be careful, someone is coming."

In their search for the Windstone, Luo Feng and his two companions also encountered other teams.

Sometimes, when you encounter someone with a bad temper or someone who's only interested in money, a fight is inevitable.

This time, it's only ten star-level targets.

The three of them each got three, but in the end, Luo Feng, the mentalist, had the advantage and grabbed the last one.

"It's done."

They have long since integrated into the universe, and they will show absolutely no mercy to their enemies.

Even the saint Hong had the same state of mind.

About a month passed like this, and Luo Feng and his two companions had fought at least a hundred battles.

The number of enemies killed was considerable, and the number of Windstones captured exceeded twenty.

It's really hard to find.

On this day, Luo Feng and his two companions rescued another small team.

"He Ruo, are you alright?"

He Ruo smiled bitterly: "If I hadn't met you, I'm afraid I would have been in grave danger."

"Where's Brem?" Thor asked immediately. "In another squad?"

This was a group of people they knew before, but nearly half of He Ruo's team had died.

"He's dead." He Ruo smiled bitterly.

I don't know if he wanted to vent his frustrations.

He Ruo began to speak to herself: "Many of my brothers and sisters who have lived with me for many years have died. This is the first test for us so-called 'elites'."

Only by enduring countless life-or-death trials and finally breaking through to the cosmic level can one be qualified to be called a 'strong individual' and become an important member of an organization.

"filter!"

Hong remarked with emotion, "This is the cruelty of organizations in the universe."

Only through repeated battles and selections can one truly succeed.

Finally, he survived the tribulations among countless stellar-level geniuses and advanced to the cosmic level.

This is their goal: from countless training camps and tens of thousands, even hundreds of thousands of geniuses, to emerge a few cosmic-level talents.

These words silenced Luo Feng.

Back on Earth, there was competition and fighting too.

However, such a degree is extremely rare.

Later, when Master Chen Yang took over, the selection process at Tiangong Pavilion became very rigorous.

But the consequences are actually relatively acceptable.

Because the selection process at the Heavenly Crafts Pavilion takes place during one's second life.

There, they would forget it was just a game and become completely absorbed in it.

The repeated selections and failures could very well lead to some people suffering a mental breakdown and no longer wanting to continue on the path of a martial artist.

But they are still alive and can still engage in other activities.

Luo Feng had previously thought that this method of selection was already quite cruel.

But it was only then that we realized Qin Hao's selection method was far too lenient.

Compared to He Ruo and the others, we are truly blessed.

Luo Feng, Hong, and Lei Shen looked at each other.

cruel……

So cruel!
This is the operating rule of those cosmic organizations: they gather large numbers of geniuses and elites, provide them with the best education and excellent conditions, and then impose the most ruthless elimination rules.

The three looked at each other again, and they could all see the meaning in each other's eyes.

Compared to these cosmic organizations, the selection process of the Heavenly Craft Pavilion can truly be described as lenient.

Just then, a rumbling sound rang out.

The entire Thunder World suddenly began to tremble violently, without any warning!

"What's wrong?" Luo Feng was taken aback, calling out to Babata in his mind, "What exactly happened? Did you detect anything?"

Babata was also bewildered: "I don't know, I'm still investigating."

Over the past month, countless people have gathered in the entire Fenglei Canyon.

Some people came to collect wind-corner stones.

Many of the others came specifically to hunt.

The people Luo Feng and his two companions killed the most were from the Hundred Tigers Tower.

At this moment, the tens of thousands of people looked around, looked at the world, and their eyes were filled with fear.

Is the world about to collapse?
"We're not going to die here, are we?"

Death was something they were prepared for from the moment they stepped into the world of Thunder.

But at this moment, such a terrifying disaster truly occurred.

They were still very panicked.

"Over there!!!" someone shouted.

Luo Feng turned around and saw that the mountain range not far away had split open, revealing a dark, gaping hole that looked as if it had been torn apart.

This black opening is extremely strange, half of it is on the mountain and half inside the mountain range.

The surrounding space was torn apart.

"Babata, what exactly happened?" Luo Feng asked.

Thor was already somewhat shocked, his eyes wide as he stared at the gaping hole that seemed ready to devour anyone, speechless.

Babata's voice was also filled with shock: "This is an entrance. Yes, an entrance to a world, a world within a world!"

His voice held a hint of surprise: "I learned a lot from Coulson, including a description of this black hole."

This must be a realm within a realm.

"A realm within a realm? What is that?" Luo Feng asked, not understanding.

At the same time, one can't help but admire that a master is indeed a master.

He received an immortal inheritance, and an intelligent life form provided him with a great deal of assistance.

But compared to his master, he seemed insignificant.

The master directly received the Venerable One's inheritance.

Moreover, the intelligent beings who followed their master were more knowledgeable and understood more than Babata.

Babata suddenly fell silent: "I feel like, are you disgusted with me?"

"No, how could that be!" Luo Feng denied it outright: "Tell me about this realm within a realm."

Babata felt that once he got back, he would pester Coulson to teach him more.

Otherwise, you'll be disliked.

However, next time, it would be best to say it in your own name.

"A world within a world, as the name suggests, is a world within a world."

You should know that a realm lord can create a world.

Within this world, another world is built, hidden within the outside world.

This is what is known as a world within a world.

However, it is necessary to build another world within the world created by the World Lord.

First and foremost, this boundary within a boundary needs to be sufficiently stable; this is the most important factor.

"what?"

“Cosmic Crystals!” Babata exclaimed. “The next level above the Dry Witch Coins is the Cosmic Coins. And the Cosmic Coins are products derived from the Cosmic Crystals.”

One cosmic crystal is equal to one thousand cosmic coins!

Luo Feng was taken aback, and then he was also somewhat tempted.

"Come on, let's go."

Luo Feng looked around. At this moment, many teams from the Hundred Tigers Tower were approaching.

Since Luo Feng knew that this was a realm within a realm, and that it contained a great deal of wealth, he naturally couldn't fall behind.

In addition, people from Baihulou have arrived.

Although they are powerful, they are no match for four hands.

If there are too many ants, even an elephant will be devoured.

They can't be too indifferent either.

At the same time, Luo Feng also shared the news about the Realm Within a Realm with Hong and Thor.

After one step, they stepped into the black hole.

Babata continued to explain to them: "Generally speaking, the purpose of building worlds within worlds is to hide treasures."

An extremely important treasure.

It cannot be described as something beyond the capabilities of cosmic crystals.

Luo Feng and the other two were startled, then shocked.

Hong said, "In that case, we should report it. Our Tiangong Pavilion should also send someone over."

Such enormous profits are beyond the control of the three of them.

There happens to be a peak Realm Lord outside; maybe we can get an extra share?

Immediately, Luo Feng edited an email and sent it to Qin Hao.

"A world within a world?"

Qin Hao has just slightly improved his second ultimate move.

However, he was somewhat lacking in the ability to execute the third ultimate move.

Qin Hao knew that this was because his foundation was not strong enough and he needed to accumulate more experience.

Studying the Heavenly Book Stele or the Chaos Stele is both good options.

More importantly, we should read books.

There are countless books in the virtual universe.

Although the secret methods mentioned in these books are not advanced, they do contain some ingenious ideas.

Qin Hao also purchased a number of books from the treasure vault of Chaos City.

These are the sources of his profound knowledge and experience.

"Luo Feng's email? Let me see..."

Qin Hao quickly understood what was going on.

"So, the realm within a realm has finally opened. It seems... well, perhaps it can offer some clues?"

In the end, however, Qin Hao did not provide many hints.

"Luo Feng, it's too late to mobilize more people now."

As for how many treasures might be hidden within this inner world, you can do your best.

At that very moment, in the mountains not far from the Wind and Thunder Canyon, a team entirely clad in black armor appeared.

This team has more than 30 members, all of whom are at the ninth level of the Stellar class, except for one second-level Stellar class member.

One of them said to the second-tier stellar-level youth, "Your Highness, a realm within a realm has appeared in the Wind and Thunder Canyon."

Because of Luo Feng and his two companions, many people came to Baihulou.

Other major powers naturally wouldn't be left behind either.

The ninth prince of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire naturally had many guards by his side.

"Interesting, a world within a world? Let's go take a look."

As he rushed towards Wind and Thunder Canyon, the Ninth Prince thought to himself, "A realm within a realm?"

The price to pay for building a world is already high enough!
But the goal is to build another world within one existing world.

Ten times more difficult!
This left behind the world lord-level powerhouse of the Thunder World.
They're actually willing to spend such a huge sum to build a world within a world?

Therefore, it is certain that there must be real treasure hidden inside.

The Ninth Prince had a passionate heart, despite having a good background.

But compared to the Qianwu Universe Kingdom, it's nothing.

The existence of eight hundred kings and marquises far surpasses that of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire.

He's a bit hot-blooded, and he's also a genius.

If possible, he might even be promoted to a king or nobleman in the future.

They were not kings or nobles of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire, but rather from the Qianwu Universe Kingdom.

Meanwhile, many other people in the universe had also received the news.

After all, the members of the training camp couldn't possibly fail to report it after seeing the "boundary within a boundary."

If the higher-ups find out, it will be an extremely severe punishment.

Luo Feng and He Ruo had already separated, because when he left, he saw He Ruo logging into the virtual universe.

It looks like they're giving a report.

"Speed ​​up, we must find out as soon as possible."

He seemed reckless, as if he hadn't done anything at all, and just walked right in.

In fact, Luo Feng had already arranged for a Silver Guard to go in before that.

It was only after seeing the Silver Guards emerge safely that Luo Feng made the decision to hurry inside.

Luo Feng said, "The Pavilion Master's email reply has arrived. Our Heavenly Craft Pavilion has relatively few bases in the Black Dragon Mountain Empire, so it will be a bit slow to mobilize manpower here."

The leader tells us to just do our best.

However, it also gave us a hint.

This is a world created by a former Thunder Lord named Lord Kabu.

Legend has it that many years ago, the Lord of the Kabu Realm inherited a set of spatial secret techniques.

Both Hong and Thor were startled by these words.

A set of secret spatial techniques passed down is incredibly valuable.

It seems that all the major powers in the Black Dragon Mountain Empire will gradually increase their efforts and send people over.

Their Tiangong Pavilion has only been established for a very short time.

There are too few people on Earth, and so far, only a handful of them have been able to advance to the stellar level.

Although Qin Hao had subdued the Black Luo Clan, he had also purchased some members of the Black Luo Clan over the years.

But there are still too few people who are truly capable.

"It's our only option to do it, so we..."

Outside, people are constantly heading towards Canglan Star.

Luo has already learned about the news inside.

"The realm within a realm of Lord Kabu? It seems that the spatial secret technique might very well be inside." This is troublesome.

Originally, it was just a Thunder World, and it even belonged to the Cosmic Mercenary Alliance. Qin Hao just used some connections to get an agreement reached.

Only stellar-class spacecraft are allowed to enter.

But the realms within realms that have appeared this time, not to mention the cosmic crystals, are the worst kind of wealth.

That set of spatial secret techniques will likely tempt many universe-level and domain-lord-level beings.

Some realm lords might also be tempted.

However, Luo wasn't too worried and instead sent an email.

It's just a set of secret techniques, albeit one with spatial attributes.

But for Sanfu Mountain, it is actually the least attractive place.

The other two founders are already immortal.

Their view on this set of secret techniques is that it's best to obtain them if possible.

It doesn't matter if I don't get it.

As for the realm lords of Three Axe Mountain, Luo can still keep them under control.

The administrators of the Cosmic Mercenary Alliance also noticed this.

They couldn't very well refuse all those outside who wanted to enter, whether they were cosmic or domain lord level beings.

Many of these people also have connections.

Although they are one of the five major organizations of human races.

But they were just members of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire branch.

Sometimes, you have to consider things.

"How to do?"

"What else can we do? We can't compromise anyway."

"But those people are all deeply entrenched, and even we probably can't stop them."

Just then, a staff member laughed and said, "Don't worry, the Time Realm Lord Luo, one of the founders of Three Axe Mountain and a retainer of the Heavenly Craft Pavilion, has appeared."
