Chapter 281 Black Mycelium
The Seventh Extraterritorial Battlefield, Barracks 078, atop a mountain peak.
Ye Yang was leisurely drinking tea and reading a book.
His military achievements were extremely high, so he was naturally assigned to one of the best residences in the 078th barracks. During his rest period in the 078th barracks, this mountain peak was his private territory.
While Ye Yang relaxed leisurely, he also sent a sliver of his consciousness into the virtual universe.
Hongmeng City is located in a special plane of the virtual universe, suspended among countless stars.
Each of those stars represents a powerful individual who has joined the Hong Alliance, and the lowest level is King!
Including humans and powerful individuals of the king level or above from various affiliated races, the population of Hongmeng City exceeds 300 million.
Ye Yang was one of them.
The news of the conflict with the Demon Candle King and others in the Solar System was strictly blocked. Since it was the Chaos City Lord who personally ordered the news to be blocked, only a small number of virtual universe companies and high-level executives of the Giant Axe Arena knew about it.
Most of the cosmic beings among humanity are unaware of this matter.
It wasn't until Ye Yang, as a Realm Lord, killed a large number of peak Marquis-level experts on the Alien Magnetic Star, and began hunting down King-level Immortals, that he was invited to join the Hongmeng City.
After logging in this time, Ye Yang was surprised to find that he had been automatically upgraded to a three-star member.
"? Does this mean my kill of King Turo has been included in the calculation, directly upgrading me to a three-star member?" Ye Yang smiled. When he killed King Turo, he casually activated the virtual universe synchronization. It turned out that King Turo was at the limit of the King level, with a lot of military merits.
"Go and buy the King's Armor."
In Hongmeng City, Ye Yang naturally changed into his classic silver armor to conceal his face, which allowed many powerful figures to recognize him.
"The King of the Heart Prison?"
"Hiss~ That's the newly promoted peak-level Soul Master, the Heart Prison King who could make a peak-level King like King Turo flee in disarray?"
"There's still no news of that King Turo. We don't know if he's dead or if he was severely injured and has gone into hiding."
"Soul attacks, ah, how enviable! It's a pity I have no talent in that area, so I ended up becoming a mentalist master."
One powerful figure after another whispered among themselves, while others who were already familiar with Ye Yang came up to greet him.
However, after learning that Ye Yang had something to do today, they didn't dare to bother him too much.
Inside a reception room in Yu Baotang.
Sitting in front of Ye Yang was a blonde woman, who was none other than the deputy head of Yu Baotang, "Canxin Wang".
"Sir, are you sure you want to buy this golden armor? Historically, few powerful individuals who have purchased this golden armor have gained any advantage, and many have even met with a bad end."
The blonde woman looked at Ye Yang and asked.
"I'm sure, let's buy it." Ye Yang nodded and said.
With the notarization of the virtual universe system, the purchase agreement was quickly signed, and Yu Baotang would deliver the golden armor directly to Ye Yang's temporary residence in Barracks No. 078.
After transferring 50 billion Hunyuan to Yubaotang's account, Ye Yang left immediately.
There's no need to worry about secrecy. Yu Baotang is actually the property of a super being within the human race. The golden armor being sold in the shop is intentional; they want to wait until someone can uncover the secret of this Flame God Clan armor.
Ye Yang's purchase of the golden armor would naturally be known to the other party, but if they wanted to ask, they should directly inquire with the Lord of Chaos City.
"Wang Jia, used by the first Golden Horn clone—only ten thousand times the power of a Realm Lord can barely fully unleash its power. But once I activate the second layer of 'Original World' and my innate secret technique 'Enhancement,' my body vibrates 18 times, making it more than enough to drive it."
Ye Yang felt the trembling and calling sensation in every cell of his body caused by the King Armor in his hand, and then threw the King Armor to the colossal beast in front of him.
"Mingyi"
The giant beast Ye Yang pulled Wang Jia into his body and then unleashed a considerable pressure that quickly acted on all parts of his body. However, for the First Golden Horn Avatar, who possessed ten thousand times the power of a World Lord without activating any amplification techniques, this pressure was just right.
"If I use a body-amplifying secret technique, the power of a 10-fold Realm Lord can be stacked to reach 28 times the power of a Realm Lord, and all material and soul attacks below the peak of the King level will be completely blocked by the King Armor!"
"Even an attack with more than 100,000 times the power of a World Lord can be weakened by 90%."
With this set of King Armor, and equipped with the Breaking Army Claws, and coated with some Femo Venom, you'll become a King-level ultimate combat power!
Its attack power is relatively low among the top-tier King-level characters, but its soul and physical defenses are ridiculously strong.
It's enough to crush weaker opponents, but even a peak-level King-level player has absolutely no chance against this behemoth.
After resting for half a month at Barracks 078, many treasures that Ye Yang had purchased on the virtual universe network were delivered to him one by one.
He then sold the "Seven Star Jade Heart Flower" that he had previously obtained.
"This is Firmor Venom? Good, the packaging looks dangerous—"
"The Vulcan Source Crystal is quite good. Buying local items in the Devouring World is much cheaper than ordering them from the Immortal Alliance using Destiny Points."
Ye Yang carefully stored all the treasures he had bought in a world ring made of extremely sturdy metal, so that he could take them out and use them at any time.
The material and sharpness of the Breaking Army Claw itself are already sufficient for combat at the level of a Cosmic Venerable, and applying Femo Venom makes it even more formidable.
Facing those alien kings at their peak, Ye Yang's first Golden Horn clone could take them down with a single claw.
"Finally, it's time to grant you immortality." Ye Yang lightly tapped the Cloud Vine with his finger.
This old fellow has been with him all the way. Previously, Ye Yang had cultivated many plant life forms, but most of them failed to advance. He only succeeded in cultivating one 240-level opening snail flower, which made him a little worried. That's why he repeatedly postponed the breakthrough plan of the Moyun Vine.
But now is the time.
In the 74th year since Ye Yang entered the extraterritorial battlefield, an astonishing event occurred within the human race's starry territories.
Luo Feng, a member of the original secret realm at the core layer of the virtual universe, suddenly broke through the 13th level of the Bridge to Heaven in one breath!
It should be noted that Luo Feng and Ye Yang are from the same universe country and neighboring star regions, a fact known to many.
"What's wrong with the Qianwu Universe Kingdom? Rong Jun, Luo Feng, Ye Yang, each one more outrageous than the last," someone wondered.
"Hehe, I also know something else. Hong, a genius from the same galaxy as Luo Feng, the 'Milky Way,' is also in the core layer of the Giant Axe Arena, and—he's a disciple of the founder of Giant Axe!"
"What?"
Some of the Cosmic Venerables who noticed this were increasingly surprised, as the investigation revealed that another genius from the same star system, "Thor," had been taken in as a personal disciple by a disciple of a Cosmic Venerable from the "Lord of Void Gold" in the Giant Axe Arena.
"this?"
"The Milky Way? What kind of place is that? It has produced three geniuses."
As they continued their investigation in surprise, they were soon warned by higher authorities.
The Undying Venerable seemed to know some inside information, but the old fellow kept his mouth shut, only smiling, leaving a group of curious Universe Venerables helpless.
They had no choice but to give up, but the Milky Way, or some unknown mysterious planet in the Milky Way, had already caught their attention.
"Haha, we'll be fellow disciples again."
Ye Yang smiled when he saw Luo Feng.
"It's said that the Lord of Chaos City rarely accepts disciples. He already took you in as a disciple before, but he's still willing to take me in?" Luo Feng was both surprised and puzzled.
"Haha, I don't know either. The teacher must have his reasons, right?" Ye Yang was genuinely unsure, but he wasn't surprised by the matter.
This is the predetermined fate, the strong conclusion of the plot, involving a certain inherent attribute of the world—the so-called "world" here refers to the "world" at the level of the myriad worlds.
Instead of Guiyi Venerable's appearance, Ye Yang led Luo Feng to pay respects to the Lord of Chaos City.
When I got back, I found that I had gained 27 more Fate Points.
"It seems that I had little impact on this part of the story. It's not a big problem. I just made a small profit off Luo Feng."
Ye Yang shook his head. This was equivalent to one-third of the Destiny Points of a standard Immortal, which he didn't care about much anymore.
When you have so much money that it far exceeds your needs, it's just a number.
In reality, Ye Yang is quietly using his inner world to accelerate his cultivation tenfold.
The one currently venturing out is his first Golden Horn clone, while his human clone is cultivating within his inner world.
"Black Shadow King, there's been a lot of news about you lately. Is it because the Savage Mountain King has fallen that you feel you've finally gained your freedom?"
Ye Yang sneered.
Even if the Black Yin King is just a nobody, he cannot order the Immortal Mother Queen 'Nan Cheng' to kill the Barbarian Mountain King.
They can provide some intelligence; they've definitely done this before.
With the death of the Barbarian King, he was probably among the happiest people.
"I'll collect some interest first, and then continue to increase my own strength until I reach the limit of the King level. Then I'll use my two clones to find a way to kill Nan Cheng."
Ye Yang knew that the time would likely be when his true identity was exposed.
After all, a human and a strange creature resembling a golden-horned behemoth, working together seamlessly, and both being powerful kings who rose to prominence in the most recent era.
The humans among them are extremely skilled in soul manipulation, making it difficult for the alien races not to associate them with him.
However, before Ye Yang made his move, he must have already reached the level of an invincible king, or even comparable to a cosmic venerable.
Even if some alien universe venerable breaks the rules and attacks him on the extraterrestrial battlefield, he can hold out until the human powerhouses arrive.
"I've been at the Star Tower for a few years now. I wonder if I'll be pulled to become the Star Tower's master?" Ye Yang thought to himself, feeling somewhat conflicted.
The Star Tower is such a massive divine weapon, a supreme treasure; it would be a lie to say I wasn't tempted.
In the world of the Immortal Alliance, apart from the [Gate of All Heavens], which defies common sense, there is probably no treasure that can compare to this Star Tower.
But Ye Yang also knew clearly that if he really succeeded in recognizing the Star Tower as his master, he would probably be met with a tremendous backlash from fate!
It's highly likely you'll lose your save file, and even if you get the treasure, you won't be able to use it, so it's better not to take it.
The sheer terror he felt upon first seeing the Star Tower—this undoubtedly demonstrated that Ye Yang possessed the qualifications to attempt to recognize a master.
"Sigh, what's the point of thinking about this?"
"It's like an ordinary person seeing a lottery shop and imagining how they would manage to borrow ten million if they won it. Winning ten million in the lottery is too difficult, almost impossible."
"To successfully recognize the Star Tower as its master, one needs the will of a peak Cosmic Venerable, which I am still far from achieving. Furthermore, I have failed in cultivating my mind and state of mind, both in achieving 'Unity of Heaven and Man' and 'Infinite Heart.' Theoretically, only someone like Luo Feng, who goes to extremes and possesses exceptionally strong will and belief, has even the slightest chance of success."
Since the paths to self-cultivation differ, Ye Yang couldn't determine whether he possessed the necessary abilities.
"Taking Control of the Gates of All Heavens - The Ten Candidates' Mission. The first task is to accumulate enough Destiny Points to expand the story worlds you are connected to."
In the world of the Immortal Alliance Master, Ye Yang looked at the ten candidate missions of the Gate of All Heavens that emerged from the depths of his consciousness.
Compared to the "Gate of All Heavens," which is a "big watermelon," the Star Tower is just a "sesame seed."
The candidate's missions are all closely related to the story world they are connected to. The last candidate's mission is to have the candidate's "main world" devour the "story world" it is connected to.
You could also say it's a fusion into one!
Complete this final task, and finish the world's "feeding" operation, and you will become the true master of the Gate of All Heavens!
If you ruin your instance world or destroy your save file beforehand, you will naturally lose this qualification.
"My weight is very high. If we disregard the 'true No. 1 candidate' whose existence is unknown, I should be the most likely instance owner to successfully complete the world 'feeding'."
Ye Yang murmured.
The idea of merging the Devouring World and the Immortal Alliance World into one is insane.
But who can know how many mysteries and unknowns lie beyond the Milky Way and beyond the vast void of the universe in the main world?
In the vast void of the universe, a beautiful and ancient spiral galaxy is emitting an incomparably dazzling ray from its central core.
The rays contain a vast amount of matter, the vast majority of which are high-energy photons, followed by high-energy spiritual energy, and then particles such as electrons and neutrinos.
This ray was so violent and terrifying that it seemed any powerful being, as long as it had a physical form, would be mercilessly torn apart and disintegrated if it were hit head-on.
However, when faced with the vast emptiness of the universe, energy can only slowly spread, expand, and drop in energy level over distances of hundreds of thousands or millions of light-years, no longer concentrating.
Ultimately, it forms an extremely thin "ribbon," or rather, "exhaust gas."
That beautiful galaxy rushed headlong into the void, leaving behind only a long and dreamlike trail spanning hundreds of millions of light-years.
In the void, there exists a rare star and a planetary system revolving around it.
"How ugly!"
A bearded scientist, dressed in a white lab coat and goggles, looking like he'd escaped from some chaotic experiment millions of years ago, floats in the starry sky, gazing at the Milky Way galaxy hundreds of thousands of light-years away, shaking his head and sighing.
"Eighteen Protectors, has your million-year-long experiment finally come to an end?"
The goatee-bearded man had somehow appeared behind the white-coated 'researcher,' looking at the planetary system behind him with great interest and asking questions.
"Yes, finally—I've finally found that ultimate life form!" The man in the white coat chuckled, no longer needing to cover his eyes with his goggles.
"An experiment that lasted for millions of years, starting from the time of the Dao Ancestor and spanning countless eras of rise and fall, was ended by these tiny mycelia."
The goatee-bearded man looked at the life-bearing planet that was gradually turning black. Countless strange plants and animals on it screamed and struggled, but none of them could avoid their bodies gradually stiffening and growing countless black threads. Finally, a long white sprout emerged from the top of their heads, supporting a small mushroom head.
Eventually, the planet was completely covered in darkness, and all energy was devoured and absorbed by the black mycelium that covered the entire land.
