Chapter 364: The War Begins?
Chapter 364: The War Begins?
"How much money is in this account?" Qi Yuan turned to Ling Yi.
He looked at the iron gadget, Ling Yi, who still retained some of her former charm.
Qi Yuan knew that this was because Ling Yi had obtained data from this place and evolved.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have asked such a strange question about the meaning of love.
For robots, evolution and awakening of consciousness are similar, yet vastly different.
The current Ling Yi was vastly different from before.
"I don't know," Ling Yi shook her head.
Qi Yuan thought for a moment and realized that this was an account and password, and they would need to access the banking system to find out the balance.
Ning Tao stood by, looking curious, and said, "Is this a breakup fee?"
In the mural, the male protagonist's mother took out a large sum of money and asked the female protagonist to leave.
"I don't know," Qi Yuan shook his head.
He now found this bank account and password rather intriguing.
It was a new system, a blend of technology and something more.
"This starship only has this coffin girl, so she's the nominal owner.
All the items on the starship belong to her.
Wu Shi is her grandmother and guardian, so she can decide the ownership of the property.
Therefore, taking this account and password isn't stealing or robbing; it's my reward for helping her kill the bandits!"
The bandits were the Divine Embryos that Qi Yuan had killed.
"Who's in favor and who's against it?" Qi Yuan looked at the others present.
The Purple Mansion Cultivator hurriedly said, "I'm in favor!"
"I'm in favor too!" Xie Tang also spoke up quickly.
As for the lonely cultivator, he couldn't help but shiver as he answered, "I'm in favor."
As he spoke, he also handed over the Sky Eye he had obtained.
"These all belong to the senior!"
The senior's intention was clear—all the relics in this place were his.
Seeing this, the Purple Mansion Cultivator also took out his Sky Eye.
"Fair," Qi Yuan said calmly.
He advocated for peace and fairness.
Qi Yuan and Ning Tao had already taken the coffin.
The remaining items were naturally divided among the other four.
These four cultivators were quick-witted and soon understood the meaning of fairness in Qi Yuan's words, dividing the Sky Eyes among themselves.
They divided the items quickly and evenly.
There was even a Sky Eye that couldn't be divided, so they broke it into four pieces.
They didn't want any unfairness, lest they suffer the same fate as the deceased.
...
"Is there an eighty-year-old cat in this world?"
Inside the room, Xie Xinsu's cat had a smile on its face, looking extremely proud and wild.
It quickly parkoured around the room, running back and forth.
"Haha! They're all gone, and that smelly robot Ling Yi is nowhere to be found!"
Wasn't this her chance? To escape!
Such a great opportunity couldn't be missed.
"This cat's owner is so lucky! Not only did I, such a cute cat, fall into the mortal realm to be his pet,
but he also has a beautiful female cultivator like the Golden Canary as his wife, and she even helped him enter the Immortal Path.
He hasn't aged in so many years, so he must be... a Foundation Establishment or Golden Core cultivator?"
Hmph, so what if he's at the Foundation Establishment or Golden Core stage? It's time for my cat to turn the tables and become the master!"
Xie Xinsu gave a cold smile, already fantasizing about escaping, finding the Xuan Tian Sect, and asking her junior sister and master to seek revenge against the cat's owner.
At that time, she would make sure that robot Ling Yi filmed himself every day.
As for the owner, hmph.
He dared to pet the cat! From now on, the cat will pet him! With this thought, Xie Xinsu lightly leaped and opened the door handle.
For some unknown reason, before leaving, she still felt a bit reluctant.
But as soon as she thought about being able to pet the owner later, she became proud again and left without hesitation.
The room became empty.
...
Several days later, at Brilliant Star.
A disheveled man sat high in the clouds, his hair billowing, and his dense black eyes hidden within.
Suddenly, countless rays of light flashed and burst forth from the clouds.
The disheveled man let out an incomprehensible roar.
This sound was like the howling of ghosts and wolves.
The dignitaries gathered in the grand hall all had solemn expressions upon witnessing this scene.
The terrifyingly powerful being in the clouds was none other than a great figure from the Realm of Ten Thousand Demons.
Currently, Brilliant Star was under the control of the Realm of Ten Thousand Demons, holding ninety percent of its power.
The king was merely a puppet.
The princess stood in a corner, gazing at the demonic figure in the sky, her eyes filled with deep apprehension.
In the corner, there was also a pale and weak man named Fang Hun, a demon.
He looked at the terrifyingly powerful being in the sky, his eyes filled with bone-deep hatred.
"The demons of the Demon Court can't sit still any longer. The war... is about to begin." The weak man, Fang Hun, was a demon.
However, unlike the demons of the Demon Court, they were the original inhabitants of the Realm of Ten Thousand Demons, enslaved demons.
He naturally held deep hatred for the demons of the Demon Court.
"Damn it! If war breaks out, we, the people of Brilliant Star, can only become cannon fodder!" The tall princess clenched her teeth, her eyes filled with intense dissatisfaction.
While Brilliant Star had gone to war with Archstar in the past, the new king had advocated for a period of recuperation and growth.
But if the demons of the Ten Thousand Demons Realm were to start a war, it would undoubtedly lead to the innocent deaths of the people of Brilliant Star."
"They've always been barbaric, cold-blooded, and brutal!" Fang Hun gritted his teeth as he spoke.
In the past, when the Ancestral Demon disappeared, these demons from the Upper Realm descended, establishing the Demon Court and enslaving the Ten Thousand Demons.
Now, on Brilliant Star, it seemed like they were merely repeating history.
"Fang Hun, can your grandfather help us?" The princess turned to Fang Hun, her eyes pleading.
Fang Hun's grandfather was a powerful cultivator with extraordinary strength.
"I... my grandfather might not be able to." Fang Hun's face fell.
If his grandfather could stop the demons of the Demon Court, these ancient demons wouldn't have to live in seclusion within the Mystic Realm, barely surviving.
"Not even your grandfather?" The princess' expression turned bleak and despondent.
Just then, a strange voice echoed through the air.
A formidable figure in the clouds suddenly cried out.
"Blood flows from Archstar, heaven and earth dance, and in a hundred days, war will begin!"
Following his voice, the other demons became excited and roared.
"War!"
"Rise!"
The pro-war faction on Brilliant Star also shouted with fervor.
"Fight!"
"Fight!"
"Fight!"
The voices rose like a tide, reverberating throughout a city.
The princess witnessed this scene, as if she saw a shattered spaceship, the land bathed in fire and blood.
War... was finally about to begin.
The intelligence officers on Brilliant Star, upon learning this news, felt as if the sky was about to collapse.
"Archstar... is doomed."
The message soon reached Archstar.
The Seven Martial Stars families and the royal family became anxious at this moment.
Although Brilliant Star had supported the Ancient Witch Kingdom in the past, their support had been limited.
Now, with the impending war, could Archstar withstand it alone? Moreover, there were rumors that behind Brilliant Star was the immensely powerful Ten Thousand Demons Realm.
The Ten Thousand Demons Realm was far stronger than the cultivators of the Three Realms.
At this moment, in the grand hall, the king sat at the head, surrounded by the heads of the Seven Martial Stars families.
The last time all the family heads of the Seven Martial Stars gathered was to deal with Qi Yuan.
However, the current king was a new ruler, the former seventh prince.
Nearly a century had passed, and the seventh prince still appeared to be in his prime, youthful and vigorous.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the news from Brilliant Star is that within a hundred days, war will commence." The king spoke, his tone calm yet urgent.
"Brilliant Star's strength surpasses ours, and the Ten Thousand Demons Realm behind them is even more enigmatic. This war... will likely be devastating!"
"Mu Yan's words carried a hint of desolation.
Daily missions in the Dead Qi World, teetering on the edge of life and death.
Now, with the entry into the Origin World, all that will change.
Once he becomes a Martial Lord, he will transform from a pawn to a player."
Qi Yuan glanced at Mu Yan and casually asked, "Where are your followers? Why aren't they here?"
Mu Yan was accompanied by several Ancient Warriors and Peak Martial Kings, who would join him on his journey to the Origin World.
A hint of disappointment flashed across Mu Yan's face as he replied, "They... are gone. It's my fault..."
This trip to the Origin World was the official launch.
In fact, there had been numerous exploratory missions before to test the route.
During one such exploration, many new Martial Kings, including some at their peak, were trapped in a peculiar location.
This place was extremely unusual; the Martial Kings' combat abilities were completely nullified, and they were even inferior to Martial Spirits.
At that time, dozens of Martial Kings were trapped there.
Eventually, someone discovered that the Ancient Warriors were only weakened by half in that place.
Subsequently, a large army led by the Ancient Warriors was dispatched for the rescue.
However, despite this, the Ancient Warriors still suffered heavy casualties.
Qi Yuan's expression became enigmatic upon hearing this, "It's like a high-speed train being trapped, and we're hoping for the Steam Ancestor to come to the rescue."
At that moment, a monkey-faced woman with a 'wow' expression approached and whispered, "Brother Qi, Brother Mu Yan is short-handed. Do you want to join him? If you follow him, when he enters the Martial Lord Realm, he might help you enter the same realm."
There were generally two types of Martial Kings on the ship.
One group had the Martial Lord Mark, and upon entering the Origin World, they only needed to pass a trial to receive the Ancestral Blood Baptism and enter the Martial Lord Realm.
The other group, like Qi Yuan, lacked the Martial Lord Mark, and even though they were at their peak, their future prospects were inferior to those with the mark.
"No need," Qi Yuan replied with a smile, "I'm used to my freedom."
Mu Yan sounded a bit disappointed, "Brother Qi, if you help me, I'll do my best to help you enter the Martial Lord Realm!"
The Martial Kings on this trip to the Origin World would undergo a hundred-day Ancestral Blood Baptism.
At that time, a Martial Lord would personally serve as the examiner, observing their performance.
Those who excelled would be granted more Ancestral Blood.
Different levels and quantities of Ancestral Blood indicated varying potentials for these Martial Kings.
Listening to Mu Yan's words, Qi Yuan lazily said, "I want to become a Spirit Realm Martial Lord. Can you help me with that?"
Mu Yan was taken aback by the term.
Spirit Realm Martial Lord... He had never heard of such a term.
"I've never heard of that either," Mu Yan replied, "So I can't guarantee success."
He was a man of integrity.
Qi Yuan remained silent.
The concept of a Spirit Realm Martial Lord was still a mystery to him.
Even the Thunder God Venerable and other inhabitants of the Origin World had not discovered any information about the Spirit Realm Martial Lord.
It was like a puzzle.
The monkey-faced woman looked at Qi Yuan with a hint of pity in her eyes.
As she was about to say something, Mu Yan pulled her away.
The two went below deck, where the monkey-faced woman couldn't help but speak up, "This Qi Yuan doesn't know what's good for him. Brother Mu Yan, with your talent, you're destined to become a Great Martial Lord! If you miss this chance, you might never get another opportunity to see him again."
Mu Yan's talent was indeed exceptional.
In fact, among the Martial Kings on the ship, his talent could be ranked in the top three.
For all the Martial Kings heading to the Origin World, his talent could place him in the top thirty.
"Sigh, everyone has their own aspirations. Why force them?
After experiencing so many Mountain Sea Scrolls and life-and-death situations, we should have long let go of everything." Mu Yan spoke.
Seeing this, the monkey-faced woman didn't bring up the matter again but instead asked, "Brother Mu, I heard that one of the examiners for the Ancestral Blood Baptism is your ancestor. Could you help a little sister out?"
The monkey-faced woman's words carried a tone of humility.
There would be thirty-six examiners for the upcoming Ancestral Blood Baptism.
Among them, there were three main examiners.
Mu Yan's bloodline ancestor was a Great Martial Lord and one of the examiners.
If they received help from an examiner, even if their performance was slightly lacking, they could still be considered "excellent."
"I can't guarantee that either. It all depends on your performance."
Mu Yan refused.
He didn't want to get entangled with the monkey-faced woman.
Meanwhile, Qi Yuan lay on a recliner, gazing at the sky and occasionally looking at the Black Sea, his mind filled with countless thoughts.
"This place is not bad, traces of time are everywhere.
Our ship seems to be sailing against time, from the present to the past, along the river of time, it's very suitable for the Golden Canary."
The Golden Canary's divine realm was the same as time.
Bringing the Golden Canary here, allowing her to immerse herself in the flow of time, might rapidly enhance her strength.
