Chapter 83 On the White Dwarf, Purchasing Slaves

Ye Yang and Babata traveled to Planet Baijia by spaceship to purchase slaves, and naturally spent the next few days on the spaceship learning and training in the virtual universe.

However, Babata suggested watching a live stream of a duel at the Giant Axe Arena. Ye Yang also wanted to see the battles of the strongest in the universe, so he chose the live stream of the most recent duel, which was scheduled to start in one day.

"This battle is actually taking place on a white dwarf star, between two cosmic-level ninth-tier powerhouses who possess domains."

Ye Yang sat in the private room, while the little devil Babata stood beside him.

"Outside the world, those at the cosmic level are powerful figures who can wield considerable influence within a nation that practices cosmic civilization, and those at the ninth rank of the cosmic level are the cream of the crop!"

Babata said:

"Ye Yang, the cosmic-level slaves you're planning to buy are either weak slaves with talent that slave traders have spent a lot of effort cultivating, or cosmic-level slaves that you've captured directly at great expense."

"But those who reach the ninth level of the cosmic realm, and even possess a domain, are so powerful that even the most powerful slave traders wouldn't dare to provoke them. This is because they could break through to the domain lord level at any time, and the life core and soul of a domain lord are transferred to the 'singularity,' so they won't die even if their brains are destroyed by a biochip."

"Unless enslaved by a soul, it is impossible for a domain lord to be enslaved."

Ye Yang nodded and looked at the white, fiery planet.

Two powerful beings stand facing each other, their surfaces heated to ten million degrees Celsius and their gravity three hundred million times that of Earth.

To the outside world, they are all incredibly distinguished figures.

However, now, they must decide their fate in a single, short battle.

"Kill!" "Die!"

Without any further dialogue, the two sides unleashed their domains and launched their most terrifying attacks as soon as the battle began.

Ye Yang was somewhat shocked; such a fierce battle between powerful individuals was beyond his imagination.

"I was already quite impressed by the battles between Nascent Soul and Void Realm seniors that I saw on the Immortal Alliance network before... but those were just battles of magic, and Immortal Alliance cultivators rarely fought to the death."

"But today's battle has had the most direct impact on me."

Ye Yang was completely captivated by the battle. Although these two ninth-tier cosmic-level powerhouses were only at the first level of their domain realm, which was inferior to his third-level domain realm.

However, Ye Yang was amazed by his combat experience, intuition, reaction speed, and attention to detail.

Especially that resolute will to die, it was truly awe-inspiring!

"Babata, you were right after all..."

Ye Yang murmured.

The match ended, he closed his eyes, and after a long while, he consciously exited the instance world.

In the world of the Immortal Alliance, on the orbit of the White Hole, Ye Yang opened his eyes:

"Between life and death, there are indeed great opportunities. Perhaps it's because I cultivate the True Intent Martial Arts, but even as an observer, I can faintly sense it..."

Ye Yang's cultivation of the True Meaning Martial Arts was initiated by his master. His master, however, only saw his true self after countless trials and tribulations in the face of life and death, thus attaining enlightenment and realizing the Great Dao.

Naturally, a trace of mystery would be unknowingly inherited by Ye Yang.

Just like when Ye Yang used the opportunity to comprehend the Dao, he was influenced by the aura of the Dao Seed and comprehended a trace of the Dao of Flames... Although it was small, it contained a great deal of the mysteries of heaven and earth.

This can be compared to a holographic interferogram. Even if a small part of a holographic image is cut out from the whole image, that small part still contains all the information of the entire image!

It's just a little more blurry.

Watching two equally matched experts fight with all their might touched upon this profound mystery.

Ye Yang took out the calligraphy scroll that his grandmaster, the True Immortal Zhushan, had given him.

Begin copying.

This calligraphy copybook is also quite remarkable. It lacks a concentrated, personal Daoist philosophy, yet it is filled with a gentle, scattered Daoist charm in every stroke.

It can be said to be an excellent resource for self-growth!

Unfortunately, Ye Yang's cultivation level is currently too low, so he can only absorb some of the scraps.

Through copying, Ye Yang's mind gradually calmed down, and he was able to let go of his experiences.

"The progress of my True Meaning training, which hasn't increased in a long time, has only risen by about 0.2%? Watching others fight to the death is indeed not very effective, and the effect will become weaker and weaker with each subsequent viewing... But even a small gain is still a gain, and I can continue to watch the live broadcasts of the duels in the arena when I have the chance in the future."

Ye Yang smiled, put down his pen and put away the calligraphy copybook, and his consciousness descended once more to devour the world.

"Babata, let's continue practicing the 'Vacuum Illusion Body' movement technique. This time, our goal is to create two illusion bodies!"

Ye Yang called Babata and entered the virtual universe killing space.

The goal of the two illusory bodies is naturally to use an ordinary human body.

After half a month of training, Ye Yang was able to reliably cast a phantom body using only an ordinary human body.

However, if Ye Yang activates his innate secret technique "Resonance of Space and Time", he can unleash four illusory bodies!

……

A few days later, Ye Yang arrived at Planet Baijia in a spaceship.

Baijiaxing remains prosperous, with crowds thronging the streets.

"This time I plan to buy about 10 eternal level 9 slaves, and two cosmic level 7 or 8 slaves," Ye Yang said.

As for the ninth-tier cosmic-level slaves... because there is a risk of them breaking through to the overlord level and breaking free of their constraints, Ye Yang does not intend to buy them.

He is not Luo Feng, who has a golden horned beast clone and was the first to reach the cosmic level.

Using the soul strength of a star level to cast the "Soul Enslavement Seal" to enslave a soul at the cosmic level is difficult to succeed even if the opponent does not resist.

After reaching the Genius Battle stage, there is no longer any need to purchase it.

"Six of the 'Heng' level slaves were assigned to the Polaris Company as guards to maintain appearances. One 'Cosmic' level slave served as the Polaris Company's protector and ultimate henchman."

"The other cosmic-level slave, along with the remaining four celestial-level slaves, are responsible for running errands for me. For example, transporting the Immortal Alliance's goods to Hughes Star and then transporting the goods back to Emerald Rock Star from Hughes Star."

"When you go out to face life-or-death trials in the future, bring two star-level servants with you."

Ye Yang already had a plan for how to use these slaves.

……

At the slave market on Hundred Planets, Ye Yang completed the purchase of a Heng-level slave. After waiting for some time on Hundred Planets, he had the slave traders deliver the selected cosmic-level slave.

On the return journey of the spaceship, Ye Yang began to use illusion techniques to influence the 10 star-level slaves.

However, they were not as heinous bandits as Zambi, so Ye Yang did not forcibly alter or distort their personalities as he did with Zambi; his methods were relatively mild.

However, through illusion, the most basic loyalty and trust were also quickly established.

As for the two cosmic-level slaves...

A man named Shaosheng Tuo, a seventh-level cosmic-level spiritual master.

Another one is named Andriuslia, a cosmic-level eighth-tier warrior.

Ye Yang originally intended to buy two eighth-tier universe-level cultivators, but he found that this Shaosheng Tuo had a good will and a strong belief that supported his cultivation, so he bought him as well.

"From now on, you two will work for me. Once I reach the Domain Lord level, I will set you free. After that, it's up to you whether you want to continue following me or do whatever you want."

Ye Yang painted a rosy picture... Shaosheng Tuo's eyes lit up slightly, but he quickly suppressed it. Andriuslia, on the other hand, had a numb, expressionless gaze.

Clearly, the two did not immediately believe him.

But Ye Yang did not elaborate further to prove his point. Time will tell.
