Chapter 277 Breaking through the Realm Lord
Even if they could be used, once they entered the primordial universe, their power would be limited by the ultimate Dao and supreme rules of the universe itself. The power of these imperial artifacts would never exceed that of a sixth-order universe lord, and they would be basically no different from the Chaos Pearl.
Looking at the thirty-nine imperial artifacts floating before him, Xu Qing shook his head helplessly, his fingertips lightly brushing against the blade of an imperial sword, a look of both amusement and exasperation on his face.
"These imperial artifacts are indeed good things, but even the best treasures become a hot potato once they exceed the current map's carrying capacity, and they simply can't be sold."
Looking across the entire universe, the strongest beings are only at the True God level. Let alone wielding these divine weapons that are at the limit of Void True Gods, there isn't even anyone who can barely activate them.
As for selling these things?
Xu Qing thought about it and still felt that she was overthinking it.
What can a group of true gods use to buy the ultimate treasure of the Void True God?
Even if they were to offer up the entire heritage of their clan as collateral, and then sell themselves as commodities, they probably wouldn't even be able to scrape together a fraction of the value of an imperial artifact.
It should be noted that even the human race, one of the most powerful races, does not possess a single supreme treasure to this day. In terms of value, even if the entire human race were sold off, excluding the Chaos City Lord and the Giant Axe, it might not be enough to buy a single supreme treasure, let alone a weapon at the ultimate level of a Void True God.
"Even if I were to compromise and sell these imperial artifacts as supreme treasures, it wouldn't be a loss for me; in fact, I could make a huge profit by selling them at the price of rare treasures—so why would I do that?"
Xu Qing withdrew her hand, leaned back in the main seat, and sighed softly.
"Sometimes making too much money can be a problem. Even when profits are piling up in front of you, you can't find the perfect way to handle them, which makes it a troublesome thing."
However—there are still areas that can be addressed.
That is the world of Jin.
According to the timeline Xu Qing knew, approximately 800 million years from now, this Jin world will also be guided by the primordial will of the original universe and officially enter the cosmic sea.
"As a god-king of the weapon-refining school, the illusory consciousness left behind by the Mountain-Sitting Guest should be very interested in this thing—"
'
The World of Jin is a small universe created from the body of the God King of Jin, the previous incarnation of the Mountain Guest. It has a diameter of trillions of light-years and is about one-thousandth the size of the original universe!
The world of Jin is home to countless tribes!
Tribes fight fiercely for survival, and their warriors are exceptionally powerful. Moreover, once a creature is born in the "World of Prosperity," it will become immortal as long as it reaches adulthood! They breathe the energy of the "World of Prosperity" from birth, and over time they naturally master a law.
To achieve immortality, everyone must do it.
With some refinement, one can become a Law Venerable (Cosmic Venerable).
However, becoming a Lord of Laws (Lord of the Universe) is extremely difficult. Generally, only one powerful warrior (Lord of Laws) will emerge from among hundreds of ordinary warriors (Law Venerables).
In the world of Jin, based on strength, it can be divided into those below Immortal, Immortal, and Law Venerables (Cosmic Venerables).
Lord of Laws (Lord of the Universe), True God, True God of the Void, Eternal True God.
When beings in the Jin world are first born, they are below the level of immortal.
Generally, one can achieve immortality upon reaching adulthood. However, some geniuses can achieve immortality within a few years of birth.
The world of Jin is merely one of the universes under the control of the Mountain Hermit, primarily for training an army and honing its elite warriors.
In the world of Jin, battles rage everywhere. The core of the entire world of Jin is the army, an army belonging to the Mountain Dwellers. The army also conducts a brutal selection process, and once you enter, you temporarily lose your freedom and must obey military orders. The various cruel selections result in an extremely high mortality rate.
Even the Lord of the Universe would have a survival rate of no more than five percent, while geniuses with the power of true gods would have an even lower chance of survival, less than one percent.
Ultimately, this is a meat grinder specifically designed to give birth to powerful Void Gods and Eternal Gods.
"Although the upper limit of the Jin world is only Eternal True God, it's enough to deal with these Imperial Weapons." Xu Qing tapped the armrest lightly with his fingertips, a thoughtful look flashing in his eyes. "I just wonder what price I could get for these Void True God level weapons there—"
Xu Qing raised his hand and pressed it into the void. Immediately, a gentle spatial fluctuation came from the depths of the Zhutian Pavilion, and the thirty-nine imperial artifacts transformed into streams of light and flew into it in an orderly fashion.
After doing all this, he exited the Pavilion of All Heavens, activated the virtual universe consciousness sensor, and entered the virtual universe.
At that moment, inside the palace of the Qianwu Universe, the communicator worn on the wrist of the Qianwu King suddenly trembled violently.
As he stood up, the name that appeared on it made his pupils shrink.
"This...this is Lord Xu Qing's account!"
The ruler of the Qianwu Kingdom suddenly stood up, his back instantly covered in a layer of cold sweat, and he even subconsciously slowed his breathing.
Although the two had a cooperative relationship, and he even forced Xu Qing to call him brother, these days when he thought of the scene back then, he didn't even dare to breathe loudly, so how could he dare to take the initiative to trouble this great god?
Meanwhile, the company left behind by Xu Qing was still operating, and the supply of Xin Yi Zui never stopped, so the ruler of Qianwu Kingdom pretended not to know anything about it.
After all, Xu Qing was a peerless genius who directly passed all 16 levels on his first attempt at crossing the Heavenly Bridge!
He crossed all 16 floors on his first attempt at the Sky Bridge. Such talent is no exaggeration to call him "the greatest genius in human history"!
Those individuals whom he once regarded as top geniuses, such as Kodi and Shihuo, who were considered once-in-a-trillion-year geniuses, were nothing compared to Xu Qing. They were like dogs on the street, not even worthy of carrying his shoes.
Not to mention, even a human powerhouse like the Lord of Chaos City was willing to personally wait for Xu Qing. Even if the Lord of Qianwu Kingdom lived for trillions of years, he would never be able to enjoy such treatment.
"Could it be that there was a problem with the wine company's accounts? Or do they need assistance?" The ruler of Qianwu Kingdom was in a state of turmoil, trembling as he entered the virtual universe, afraid that he might have done something wrong and displeased this great god.
The next second, Xu Qing's figure appeared in the hall as a pale golden projection, still with that calm and composed demeanor, but the words he spoke made the Qianwu Kingdom King freeze in place.
"Qianwu, the last batch of Xinyi Zui sold well. This time, we'll supply you with another batch, probably tens of millions of bottles. Please arrange for someone to handle the details."
He previously bought 10 billion elite realm masters, and even though he spent some of it, he still has several billion left.
Since he had nothing better to do, Xu Qing casually brewed it into a "Heartfelt Intoxication".
"Tens of millions of bottles?!"
The voice of the ruler of the Qianwu Kingdom suddenly rose, his eyes widening like copper bells, almost as if he had misheard.
He subconsciously swallowed and quickly calculated the costs in his mind.
As previously agreed, the price of a pot of "Heartfelt Intoxication" is 300 billion Hunyuan units.
Tens of millions of bottles, that's tens of millions of 300 billion Chaos Yuan! Converted, the total value is at least equivalent to tens of thousands of precious treasures!
You should know that he previously owed several million Treasure Points in debt, but if he can sell these tens of millions of bottles of Heartfelt Wine this time, even if he gets 50% of the profit as previously agreed, the wealth he will receive will be enough for him to pay off all his debts at once, and he may even have a lot left over.
"Lord Xu Qing, you...you're not joking, are you?" The King of Qianwu's voice trembled, his hands clenching involuntarily, as if afraid this was a hallucination. "Tens of millions of bottles—this...this!"
Seeing his almost uncontrollable excitement, Xu Qing half-jokingly said, "Brother Qianwu, didn't you say you wanted to be brothers with me? Why have you changed your address? But I'm not joking. The goods are ready. You just need to send someone over to handle the delivery."
"Yes! Yes! I'll arrange it immediately!" The King of Qianwu Kingdom hurriedly bowed in agreement, bending even lower, his shock turning into ecstatic joy. "Thank you, Lord Xu Qing! Rest assured, I will handle this perfectly and will not let you down!"
Xu Qing nodded slightly, said nothing more, and the projection turned into a golden light and disappeared.
The ruler of Qianwu Kingdom remained bowed for a while before straightening up. Staring at the virtual universe terminal, he couldn't help but pinch himself hard to confirm that he wasn't dreaming. Standing there, his fingertips were still trembling slightly, with only one thought in his mind.
With these tens of millions of bottles of Heartfelt Wine, I'm truly going to rise to power this time!
But after the initial euphoria, a practical problem immediately came to mind.
With so many heartfelt sentiments, how can we possibly digest them all? There certainly isn't enough within the human race.
Throughout the human race, including those invincible kings who have the ability to consume this level of wine, there are only a few thousand to tens of thousands of individuals.
It seems we need to turn our attention to other races in the universe.
The ruler of the Qianwu Kingdom immediately reconnected to the virtual universe and began contacting his old friends.
Tens of millions of bottles of Heartfelt Wine are too much for the Qianwu Kingdom's ruler to consume alone; he must find help.
There are billions of races in the universe, and without a cosmic ruler to oversee them, most would have already perished in the law of the jungle. However, selling the Heart-Intoxicating Wine to these races is extremely difficult.
These groups are more or less dependent on the top or powerful groups, so opening up sales channels is by no means easy.
However, the ruler of Qianwu Kingdom had great confidence in Xinyi Zui.
Putting everything else aside, the sentimental value is incredibly cheap.
Take the same Purple Fire Ape Wine as an example. Both can make a Universe Venerable drunk, but Purple Fire Ape Wine costs 800 billion Chaos Units, while Heart's Intoxication only costs 300 billion Chaos Units. Purple Fire Ape Wine is more than twice as expensive as Heart's Intoxication.
This amount of money is not a small sum, even for someone like King Wudi or even a Universe Venerable.
Once we establish a reputation, we're sure many people will come to buy.
Previously, the ruler of Qianwu Kingdom had hoped to reap profits by investing in Xu Qing, but now he has to personally get involved in the sales—his identity has suddenly changed from "investor" to "executor".
The ruler of Qianwu Kingdom smiled helplessly, but the drive in his eyes only grew stronger.
What's a little thing compared to paying off debts?
On the other side, Xu Qing shut down the connection to the virtual universe and returned to the quiet room in Chaos City.
This place is isolated from all outside disturbances, making it an ideal location for secluded cultivation.
He sat down cross-legged and swallowed a pill containing the power of a peak Realm Lord.
Without any deliberate guidance, the cultivation barrier that was originally at the peak of the cosmic level became as fragile as paper in the face of this energy.
-
A faint halo appeared in the quiet room, and the space around Xu Qing trembled slightly. His aura rose at a visible speed, and in just a few breaths, it broke through the shackles. His soul and genetic energy crystallized and then formed a primordial core together.
Of course, this is only a part of his soul; Xu Qing's main soul is still that one-dimensional divine soul thought.
But this is far from over.
As soon as he achieved the Domain Lord level of life, Xu Qing's power once again accumulated to the peak of the Domain Lord level, and he launched an attack on the World Lord level.
If it were someone else, it would take at least tens of thousands of years of accumulation to go from a domain lord to a world lord, and they would also have to overcome the bottleneck of comprehending the laws.
Even geniuses from those primeval secret realms will stay for thousands of years to hone their skills.
But Xu Qing didn't care at all.
His protocore underwent a dramatic change.
"Boom!"
Under the influence of an invisible force, the Soul Crystal and the Force Crystal melted directly into a liquid torrent. The two torrents began to touch. When the spiritual power and the Force truly touched, and the first fusion occurred after the integration of consciousness and will—the first wisp of World Power was born! As soon as World Power was born, Xu Qing's wisp of consciousness seemed to resonate, sensing the origin of the vast universe.
The primordial universe is the oldest, most vast, and most powerful universe, nurturing the most diverse life forms.
Although the "primordial universe" is a universe outside the original universe, it is not even a fraction of the original universe.
When the first trace of world power was generated within Xu Qing's body, it connected with that incomparably distant primordial land.
It was an incomparably vast land. With Xu Qing's consciousness, he could only sense this endless land and could not sense anything else. And every grain of soil in this endless land seemed to be a space, and within that space existed countless cosmic crystals.
This is the core of the entire primordial universe. No one knows when it existed, but it is known that consciousness can only enter the origin of the universe for the first time when one reaches the level of a World Lord.
Xu Qing's consciousness was directly drawn into the endless earth and entered a grain of sand. Moreover, his consciousness was clearer than ever before, sensing all kinds of primal fluctuations of metal, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, lightning, light, space, and time. He could sense them all.
The origin of the laws is also hidden in that mysterious place of the universe's origin!
When consciousness descends to the origin of the universe, it will be in a state incomparably close to the origin of the laws. Because of this incomparable closeness, the perception will be the clearest.
Even a genius from a primordial secret realm who has only comprehended the fundamental laws of space and metal can still comprehend the laws of wood, water, fire, earth, wind, lightning, light, and time—laws he doesn't understand at all—upon entering the origin of the universe, and his comprehension of them is comparable to that of the law of metal he comprehended before.
Of course, if the other laws are 100, then the clarity of sensing the law of metal is about 1, while the clarity of sensing the law of space is 20!
The difference in understanding is more than a hundredfold, even a thousandfold!
"This is why some genius realm lords, even if they can break through to immortality, have to stay in this realm for tens of millions of years until they are almost old and die without breaking through." Xu Qing understood.
At the realm lord level—some peerless geniuses, after only tens of thousands of years of cultivation, can rival the immortal gods at the king level in their understanding of the laws.
But for an ordinary immortal god, even with continuous breakthroughs, it would be impossible to reach the King level in a hundred million years!
That's the advantage!
