Chapter 29, Information
I guess he's either invincible at the title of King, or... a Venerable One?
Ye Muxuan shook his head, estimating that he wasn't yet qualified to attract the attention of a Venerable. However, he was already quite satisfied to be able to attract the attention of someone at the peak of the King-level realm. After all, he hadn't used his full strength in either the Bridge to Heaven or the Illusionary Sea.
He only made it to the thirteenth level of the Bridge to Heaven, the fourteenth level of the Illusionary Sea, and as for the Immortal Altar, he wouldn't dare say he was a World Lord General capable of directly killing an Immortal if he didn't get a perfect score.
Exerting one's body at a hundred times its normal strength and achieving perfect control is something every peak Realm Lord can do, let alone break through to immortality. If you can't even do this, breaking through to immortality is just a dream; you don't even have the right to try.
Ye Muxuan's gaze fell on the screen, and his eyes narrowed slightly.
……
Virtual universe, special conference room.
As a realm lord general in the extraterritorial battlefield, Ye Muxuan was qualified to apply for such a small conference room, though it would naturally incur some costs. After the waiter brought the drinks, he respectfully withdrew.
Shortly afterward, the people who had received the email entered the conference room one after another.
"How rare! You actually came to us!" The tall, burly man joked with Ye Muxuan as he walked into the conference room.
"Indeed rare." Following him in was Li Zheng, the Madman of Knives.
Before long, the people Ye Muxuan had invited entered. A quick glance revealed Zhen Dan, Li Zheng, Kong Yan, Qing Lun, Gu Shou, Wei Yi, and others, who all took their seats.
"I went into seclusion immediately after crossing the Tongtian Bridge, and I just finished. There are still some things I don't understand, so I need your help now." Ye Muxuan stood up, poured a cup of wine for each of the nine Realm Lord experts present, picked up his cup first, drank it all in one gulp, and then said, "I apologize to everyone first."
"Mu Xuan, that's quite a generous offer." Zhen Dan looked at the wine in the glass in front of him, which was shimmering with five-colored light and faintly surrounded by stars. "Five-colored stars, even in the virtual universe, this glass would cost 30 Hunyuan units. Mu Xuan, you are indeed very wealthy."
In front of the ten people, each had a bottle of Five-Colored Stars, and Ye Muxuan also took out an extra bottle to distribute the wine. Putting everything else aside, a single bottle of Five-Colored Stars would cost three hundred Chaos Units in the virtual universe, and a bottle of wine could only be poured into a maximum of ten cups!
For an ordinary realm lord, having ten units of Chaos Origin cash is considered quite good. Of course, those who come from the extraterrestrial battlefields naturally have some wealth. However, unless they are particularly fond of alcohol, they really can't bear to have a drink in the virtual universe. Even if the taste is exactly the same, virtual is still virtual. It's better to grit your teeth and simply buy a bottle in reality to satisfy your craving!
"I'll drink Mu Xuan's cup of wine. If there's anything I can do to help, just say so!" Qing Lun, dressed in green robes and with blue hair, spoke up, picked up the wine cup, drank it all in one gulp, then smacked his lips, finding the taste quite good.
He was a spiritualist who chose the Chaos Monument of Startling Clouds, passed through the ninth level of the Sky Bridge of Startling Clouds, and was only one step away from immortality.
"Me too. If you need any help, just ask. I'll definitely help if I can." Another man, dressed in black battle armor and carrying a blood-red heavy sword, spoke up.
He also chose the Blood Sword of the Chaos Monument, a powerful close-combat warrior, and passed through the ninth level of the Bridge to Heaven.
After these three spoke, the others also raised their glasses. Only Kong Yan rubbed her glass, looked at the others, and finally glanced at Ye Muxuan before suddenly asking, "Do you need the information about the invitations from the five major powers?"
Upon hearing this, Zhen Dan and the others were slightly taken aback, while Ye Muxuan slowly nodded.
"I just finished my seclusion and discovered that all five major powers have sent invitations. I don't have any impressive background to speak of, and I lack information about the five major powers, so I'd like to learn some things from you." Ye Muxuan didn't hide his purpose and spoke directly.
"After today, you should have a background," Zhen Dan said, while Ye Muxuan smiled.
"It's definitely better to learn more about the five major powers beforehand," the slender woman said, agreeing with Ye Muxuan. "After we crossed the Tongtian Bridge, all five major powers sent us invitations. Since you were in seclusion at the time, a few of us got together to discuss it."
"So you've already chosen which faction to join?" Ye Muxuan asked curiously.
"That's you. We don't have any power to take you in." A tall, skeletal figure, pale-faced and clad in matching greyish-white armor, spoke. "As far as I know, among this batch of Realm Lords, only those who have passed the eleventh level or higher will receive a formal invitation and have the opportunity to become core members. Realm Lords who have passed the tenth level aren't even considered core members, and as for the ninth level, there's practically no hope!"
"Only by breaking through to immortality is there any hope!" Blood Sword added.
Regardless of which of the five major powers it is, how many geniuses have they witnessed throughout countless eons? A World Lord level is merely the ninth level; it's truly beneath their notice. Among their core members, such as those in the Primal Secret Realm, there are many Domain Lord level cultivators who have already conquered the ninth level.
However, the path to immortality is a different story. After all, even among these core geniuses, not every one of them can become immortal; the probability is only about 5%! The rest of the geniuses will fall on the road to becoming strong for various reasons.
"You went into seclusion right after crossing the Tongtian Bridge, so you probably don't know the specifics yet." Kong Yan said. This slender mentalist controller, who seemed weak, was one of the three strongest realm lords on the third battlefield of the outer domain, on par with Ye Muxuan and Zhen Dan!
"We exchanged some information after we crossed the Tongtian Bridge, let me tell you first." Li Zheng, who had been silent all along, spoke up at this moment, "Out of the thousands of Realm Lords in our batch, only eleven people received formal invitations from the five major powers."
"Li Zheng is the most talented among the younger generation of the Blade Clan. Behind him is the Blade Clan's King-level senior, so he will know more detailed information," Zhen Dan said from the side.
"The situation regarding immortality is irrelevant to us. Of the hundred Realm Lords who came from our extraterrestrial battlefield, four have passed the eleventh level of the Bridge to Heaven, two have passed the twelfth level (Kong Yan and Zhen Dan), and you are the only one who has passed the thirteenth level. Of the more than one thousand people who came from the auction, three have passed the eleventh level and one has passed the twelfth level." Li Zheng looked at the nine Realm Lords present, his gaze sharp as a blade. "Of these eleven people who can become official members, you are the only one, Mu Xuan, who has not yet chosen which force to join."
Ye Muxuan nodded slowly.
Although the vast majority of the realm masters who entered the auction were at the eighth or ninth level, and some were even at the seventh level, the sheer number of people—over a thousand—meant that even among those selected, one or two geniuses would inevitably emerge.
