Swallowing the Stars: Becoming a God Starting with a Hundred Generations of Talent

Chapter 48 Treasure Acquired, King Molu [Sixth Update]

This tavern is one of the largest buildings on the planet.

It occupies a vast area, is more than a dozen stories high, and is constructed entirely of a black metal, making it look like a giant beast lying in the center of the city.

Before Lu Yun even got close, he could hear the commotion coming from inside.

Push open the heavy door.

A wave of heat, mixed with the smells of alcohol and various organisms, hit me.

The tavern's interior was extremely spacious, stretching as far as the eye could see.

Countless adventurers gather here.

There are humans, as well as all sorts of strange and unusual races.

Some of them were loudly boasting, some were drinking contests, and others were quietly making deals in the corner.

The entire tavern was filled with a raw and chaotic energy.

Lu Yun found a corner seat and ordered a simple fruit wine.

He didn't rush to find out the news.

Instead, they observed silently.

Soon, his gaze settled on one person.

It was a thin, elderly man sitting in the corner of the bar.

The old man wore a gray robe, had an unremarkable appearance, and an ordinary demeanor, like an ordinary person nearing the end of their life.

However, Lu Yun noticed...

In just half an hour, more than ten groups of people had taken the initiative to go up and talk to him.

Each time, they would only exchange a few words in hushed tones.

Then, those people would leave with satisfied expressions.

"It's him," Lu Yun thought to himself.

He picked up his wine glass and slowly walked over.

"I want to buy some information," Lu Yun said calmly, stating his purpose directly.

The thin old man raised his head and glanced at Lu Yun with his cloudy eyes.

"What news?" His voice was a little hoarse.

"Past records from some remote galaxies," Lu Yun said, "covering a relatively long period of time."

"It's not convenient to talk here."

The old man shook his head and tapped his withered fingers lightly on the table.

A thin metal card, as thin as a cicada's wing, silently slid to Lu Yun's feet.

"Let's talk in the virtual universe network." After saying that, the old man lowered his head and continued wiping his wine glass, ignoring Lu Yun.

Lu Yun picked up the card, turned around, and left the tavern.

He found a hotel in the city and booked the quietest room.

Upon entering the room, he immediately connected to the virtual universe network.

Consciousness enters the virtual space.

Following the instructions on the metal card, Lu Yun entered a special contact number.

soon.

A completely enclosed private space is created.

A figure shrouded in black mist appeared before Lu Yun.

"State your needs." The voice in the shadowy figure was distorted, making it impossible to tell if it was male, female, young, or old.

Lu Yun didn't waste any words.

He sent over a star map that he had prepared.

This star map marks more than three hundred star systems.

The Red Rock Galaxy is just one of the most insignificant of them all.

"I need all the publicly available intelligence on these three hundred-plus star systems over the past five hundred million years, as well as some non-public records of the activities of powerful individuals."

Lu Yun's requirements were very clear.

The shadowy figure remained silent for a moment, as if calculating.

A few seconds later, he spoke.

"Total value of the intelligence: 10,000 cosmic coins."

"Okay," Lu Yun replied readily.

He completed the transfer directly.

"drop."

Transaction successful.

A massive, encrypted data packet was immediately sent to Lu Yun's account.

After completing the transaction, the shadowy figure vanished.

Back in his hotel room, Lu Yun immediately began to review the intelligence he had just acquired.

With over three hundred star systems and a record spanning five hundred million years, even if an intelligent optical computer were to sift through them, it would still take a considerable amount of time.

He directly targeted intelligence related to the "Red Rock Galaxy".

Once.

Twice.

Three times.

He checked it several times.

The result is the same.

For the past 500 million years, the Red Rock Galaxy has been like a blank sheet of paper.

This place is desolate and uninhabited, with no life-bearing planets and no valuable mineral resources.

Aside from the occasional accidental intrusion of an adventurer's spaceship, there are no other publicly available records.

In the undisclosed intelligence, there is no record of any domain lord or world lord-level powerhouses approaching this star field.

It's excessively clean here.

"It seems that the Moliufeng family, who plotted against Yan Beichen, did not know the exact location of the treasure."

Lu Yun breathed a sigh of relief.

Or perhaps, as time has passed, they have given up the search.

Whatever the reason, it's good news for him.

Lu Yun left the hotel and returned to his D5-class spaceship.

With the target set, the spaceship slowly ascended into the air, quickly transforming into a dark silver streak and disappearing into the planet's horizon.

Just half a day later.

The spaceship then arrived at the Red Rock Galaxy.

Looking out through the porthole.

A dark red star is releasing its last rays of light and heat.

Three gray planets orbited it, lifeless and gloomy.

Further away lies the boundless asteroid belt, where countless meteorites float haphazardly.

Everything was exactly as described in the documents.

Lu Yun piloted the spaceship directly towards the set of cosmic coordinates left by Yan Beichen.

(771, 9527, 3301).

The spaceship came to a precise stop in this void.

The surrounding area is filled with countless meteorites.

The largest has a diameter of hundreds of kilometers, while the smallest is only the size of a fist.

On the surface, there is nothing special about this place.

Lu Yun stowed his spaceship, dressed in black, and appeared directly in the cold vacuum of space.

As a master craftsman, he has an extraordinary intuition for all kinds of materials.

He carefully examined each meteorite.

One piece, two pieces —

Ten dollars, a hundred dollars —

In his perception, thousands of meteorites all exhibited their most essential composition.

Time passed little by little.

suddenly.

Lu Yun's mental power touched a meteorite that was about ten kilometers in diameter.

His heart skipped a beat.

that's it.

From the outside, this meteorite looks no different from the surrounding ones.

However, in Lu Yun's perception, there was an extremely subtle "incongruity" inside it.

He quickly found the entrance to an artificial tunnel on the meteorite.

Lu Yun stepped inside directly.

The view before me suddenly opened up.

Inside the tunnel was an enormous cavern.

The cave floor was perfectly flat, and the surrounding walls were as smooth as a mirror, clearly indicating that it had been carved out by someone with immense strength.

Right in the center of the cave.

There, a box sat quietly.

"Found it!"

Lu Yun walked over and tried to open the box.

However, the lid of the box did not budge.

Lu Yun suddenly remembered something.

With a thought, he took out Yan Beichen's belongings from his storage equipment.

Among the miscellaneous items, he quickly found a jade pendant.

A drop of bright red blood fell onto the jade pendant.

hum!

The blood was instantly absorbed by the jade pendant.

The entire jade pendant emitted a soft light, and a beam of light shone directly onto the metal box.

Click.

With a soft click, the lid of the box popped open automatically.

Immediately afterwards, an incomparably dazzling light shot into the sky from the box.

This light carried a peculiar attraction, as if calling to some being in the distant starry sky.

Lu Yun's gaze immediately turned to the inside of the box.

Inside the box, a flying sword lay quietly.

that's it!

Lu Yun reached out and beckoned, and the flying sword flew into his hand.

Then, he directly put it into his spatial ring.

The box's light had faded, but Lu Yun still felt something was off about it. The source of that outward-transmitting attraction seemed to be the box itself.

He didn't take it.

He decided to leave the box here.

Lu Yun turned around, and with a swift movement, he transformed into a streak of light and instantly left the cave.

They entered the spaceship's cockpit.

"Activate the warp drive immediately and enter the dark universe!"

A dazzling blue light shot out from the tail of the spaceship, the entire hull trembled slightly, and the space in front of it began to distort, then turned into a deep vortex.

next moment.

The spaceship plunged directly into the vortex and disappeared without a trace, quickly evacuating this dangerous place at top speed.

At this time.

Within the secret realm of the divine kingdom.

A magnificent, dark gold temple floated silently in the air.

Inside the temple.

A figure sat cross-legged.

He wore a dark gold royal robe, his face was majestic, his eyes were closed, and the space and time around him were faintly distorted by his powerful aura, as if he were the only ruler of this divine kingdom.

He is the current head of the Moliu Peak family, a king of immortality, the Moliu King.

suddenly-

King Moryu opened his eyes.

He slowly took out a jade pendant from his spatial ring.
