Swallowing the Stars: The Rise of Emperor Wei

Chapter 148 Qinia

The journey in the Dark Universe has only just begun. For the rest of the time, Gao Sheng will be cultivating in the virtual universe. There are many more open classes on Lucky Island than in the Glory Community of the Qianwu Branch, and they are all taught by Immortal teachers, whose level is obviously higher. Every day, Gao Sheng can find a suitable class to listen to. He listens to classes and cultivates in the virtual space. Now that he no longer cultivates the Force, he hardly leaves the virtual universe except for a little time to move around in the spaceship.

Over time, I got to know many of the core members.

Virtual Universe, Lucky Island Public Area.

The public area is divided into sections of recreational facilities and teaching areas, and is always crowded with people.

Keep in mind that there are over ten million core members on Lucky Island. Even if only one or two percent are here at any given moment, that's still over ten thousand people.

The largest building in the public area, a teaching building spanning thousands of kilometers.

In one of the lecture halls of the building, a public lecture had just ended, and thousands of people flew out of the lecture hall's main entrance and scattered in all directions, including Gao Sheng.

Gao Sheng flew directly to an open-air bar.

"Promotion!" A short-haired woman waved; it was Ji Qing.

Gao Sheng landed with a thud, sat down directly opposite, picked up the drink on the table and drank it all in one gulp. "Since you're treating, I won't stand on ceremony."

"You're such a busy person. I've been on Lucky Island for almost a month now, and I'm so glad to finally see you," Ji Qing said with a smile.

"Who are you two?" There were two other people in Ji Qing's seat.

There was a slender man in a blue robe and a woman in a silver battle suit with short silver hair. Her dashing demeanor was somewhat similar to Ji Qing's, but she was colder and more beautiful.

"Let me introduce you," Ji Qing said with a smile, "This is Emperor Gaosheng."

Gao Sheng smiled and nodded. The thin man was the Realm Lord, and the silver-haired woman should be the Domain Lord, because they were both wearing mercenary medals.

"This is Breel, and this is Qinia. We're both from the Qianwu Universe Kingdom, so we're practically from the same hometown," Ji Qing said. "Breel is from the Snow Frontier Star Region."

Gao Sheng understood; this Lord of the Blair Realm must be a genius who had received the cultivation and favor of Marquis Silver Snow.

"Oh? You're Gao Sheng? Gao Sheng from the Black Dragon Mountain Empire?" Breil and Qinia both showed strange smiles, clearly indicating that they had also watched the Genius Battle and knew Gao Sheng's name.

"You're Qinia?" Gao Sheng smiled as he looked at the silver-haired beauty.

"Do you know me?" the silver-haired woman asked, puzzled.

Gao Sheng laughed and said, "Qinya, have you ever been to Canglan Star in the Black Dragon Mountain Empire?"

"Yes, I'm currently serving as an inspection envoy at the Alliance's Dry Witch branch. I visited Canglan Star a while ago." Qinia seemed to have thought of something, and her gaze towards Gao Sheng was rather strange.

"Thank you so much. I happened to be in the Thunder World at that time," Gao Sheng thought to himself, "I'll thank you on Luo Feng's behalf."

"You're all like riddle tellers," Brell said curiously. "What's the matter?"

"That's right, at the time I was participating in the trainee mercenary assessment in the Thunder World of Canglan Star..." Gao Sheng explained.

As she listened, Qinia's eyes lit up; she herself had no idea that so many wonderful things were happening in that realm within a realm.

"...Later I heard that Hargrave had schemed and plotted, but in the end he got nothing. Everyone else gained something, more or less, but he was left with a mountain of debt and became the only loser."

The three of them burst into laughter after hearing this, feeling that their relationship with Gao Sheng had become much closer.

After laughing, Ji Qing continued, "Gao Sheng, when we were doing the mercenary assessment mission, Qinia was watching the whole thing from inside the temple."

"Oh?" Gao Sheng looked at Qinia, who also looked over and smiled, "You guys, you actually used cannons to bombard..."

All four of them burst into laughter, and Gao Sheng also felt that this fate was truly wonderful.

……

Half a month later, the sale was completed, and Gao Sheng received 78 Mixed Yuan Units, bringing the total amount in the two accounts to 246 Mixed Yuan Units.

"We're still short nearly ninety Hunyuan units..." Gao Sheng pondered.

"The final evolution must be carried out as soon as possible..."

Each evolution brings immense benefits, and Gao Sheng believes that this final evolution should ideally be completed before entering the initial universe, as it might greatly benefit the next thirty years in Chaos City.

"We can't worry about that now."

Gao Sheng entered the Nine Star Bay Villa and sent a call request to Luo Feng.

The call connected shortly afterward, and Luo Feng appeared on the screen.

"Gao Sheng, you wanted to see me?"

"Luo Feng, I know your time is precious in Chaos City..." Gao Sheng said with a smile, "I do have something to do; I'm short of money right now..."

Luo Feng laughed: "If you need money, just say so, as long as it's within my ability."

"I need... 200 Mixed Yuan Units."

"No problem, I'll transfer the money right away... I'm waiting for you in Chaos City, you'd better hurry up." Luo Feng was slightly surprised at first, then smiled and hung up.

Gao Sheng just smiled, that's quite generous of him!

Others only thought that Luo Feng had become a core member of the Virtual Universe Company and received a bonus of 10 Mixed Yuan Units.

Luo Feng entered the Primordial Secret Realm, which is worth 1000 Mixed Yuan Units and 10000 Points. Others may not know, but Gao Sheng certainly does.

The 200 mixed units arrived quickly, and Gao Sheng immediately began purchasing them.

330 Mixed Yuan Unit Energy Crystals, biological remains including Zerg corpses cost 3 Mixed Yuan Units.

Then Gao Sheng left 100 Mixed Yuan Units in the family account and entrusted them to the old patriarch for business investment, leaving only 13 Mixed Yuan Units in his own account for future use.

A few days later, Gao Sheng left the dark universe again and entered a commercial planet, where he received an order.

The spaceship took off again and entered the dark universe.

"I'm going into seclusion for a month and no one is allowed to disturb me," Gao Sheng announced in the spaceship's main hall.

One month is the timeframe that Lao Tie estimates.

Both Nansi and Lanluo looked at them with surprise.

Lanluo glanced at Nansi, forcing a laugh, and said, "Yes, Master."

Nan Si rolled her eyes at Gao Sheng and said irritably, "Go ahead, go ahead, I'm going into seclusion too."

Gao Sheng dared not look at Nan Si, and fled to the cultivation room as if escaping. He closed the door and took out the World Bracelet he had just obtained.

With a whoosh, piles of energy crystals appeared, only to be collected into the system world by Gao Sheng.

330 units of mixed-element energy crystals are simply too many; they can't even fit in my spatial ring. Plus, I got a world item as a bonus.

This world bracelet is only about a thousand kilometers in size inside, and the materials are low-end. Gao Sheng estimates that it is not even worth 0.1 Hunyuan units.

It took Gao Sheng several hours just to transfer these energy crystals into the system world.

The rising system world has reached a side length of forty kilometers. At this time, the energy crystals have formed a mountain, which is about one cubic kilometer in size.

Actually, Gaosheng could buy higher-end energy, which would be much smaller, but for the same amount of energy, lower-grade energy is cheaper.
