Chapter 247 "The World Has a Master" (2 updates)
The fifth outer battlefield, the Old Star Abyss.
Without any warm-up, the war entered its most intense stage from the beginning.
An army composed of over ten thousand cosmic lords, plus tens of billions or hundreds of billions of immortal gods, were fighting each other crazily on this small battlefield.
A diameter of several hundred light years is actually not that small.
But it is not too big for a powerful person at the level of immortals and venerables.
By briefly traveling through the dark universe and then returning, you can span most of the battlefield.
The battle breaks out all the time.
Not only in the original universe, many powerful people even started fighting directly in the dark universe.
At this level, the environmental differences between the original universe and the dark universe can be ignored.
On the first day alone, countless strong men died, and a large number of corpses and wreckage were scattered on the battlefield.
As expected, the mechanical legion under Jiang Chen was targeted by the mechanical tribe.
However, the Mechanical Clan obviously underestimated the strength of the 'Mechanical Families'.
More than a dozen Universe Lords led their legions to besiege a mechanical legion. Not only did they fail to defeat their opponents, they were instead surrounded by the surrounding mechanical clan legions, killing and capturing most of the army.
Only five Universe Lords accelerated wildly through the dark universe and escaped from the encirclement of the mechanical army.
In this battle, the mechanical clan side killed eight cosmic lords and over 100 million immortals from the mechanical clan camp at the cost of losing a large number of mechanical units.
There are more than 30 million prisoners of the Immortal God level captured, of which more than half are the strong men of the Machine Tribe.
Unfortunately, the cosmic lords of the mechanical clan camp who held the treasures all escaped. The eight who were killed all used treasures at the level of heavy treasures. The capture of the trophies is not considered a big deal. 'Great Harvest'.
If we only count the captured treasures and not the value of the prisoners themselves, the total value of the trophies plus military merit is only about two or three treasure points.
Of course, this is compared with the gains from the previous raid on the Eleventh Battlefield War Base.
In fact, on the battlefield outside the territory, one can earn several treasure points worth of income in just one day, which is an extremely terrifying profit for a strong person at any level.
It’s no wonder that the ‘Decisive Battle’ held once in a thousand years on the outer battlefield attracted so many powerful people to participate.
As long as you survive, you will definitely become rich immediately.
Not to mention, in the brutal fight between life and death, there is still a high probability of catching a breakthrough opportunity.
Of course, for those strong players who have been trapped in a bottleneck for a long time, the possibility of finding a breakthrough opportunity through just one or two battles is very low.
At least they have to fight on the battlefield outside the territory for a long time. After each battle continues to accumulate, maybe they will have a chance to break through the bottleneck.
And if the talent has reached its limit, no matter how many life and death battles there are, the probability of breaking through the bottleneck is very low.
But compared to years of seclusion and hard work with no results, having a chance to break through the bottleneck is extremely attractive in itself.
Without a strong heart that pursues perfection, it is impossible to cultivate to the level of becoming a king or a venerable person.
Of course, this is based on the level of life in the original universe.
If in the Origin Continent, or other equally advanced origin worlds, there are many races of strong men who are immortal when they are born, and become venerable when they reach adulthood. With a little training, they can reach the level of the Lord of the Universe and the True God.
However, for the beings in the original universe, except for a very small number of special beings who are naturally favored by the original will, if you want to improve your strength, you have to seek for a breakthrough between life and death. Opportunity.
Of course, the starting point of such a life may not be high enough.
But if you can break the limit of your own talent, the upper limit in the future may be even higher.
Of course, it's just possible.
In the countless reincarnation eras of the original universe, there are only a handful of people who can transcend the limit of the 'true god' and step into a higher level.
——
The first batch of 'trophies' were sent back to the place of origin. Jiang Chen didn't bother to look at the valuable treasures, weapons, armors, etc., and directly let No. 1 screen them.
Except for a few treasures that can be dismantled into a large amount of materials, the rest are all sold to the ethnic groups, or sold through the channels of the 'Universe Technology Company', and exchanged for a large amount of resources to replenish the number of mechanical legions.
After only the first day of fighting, Jiang Chen found that he still underestimated the importance of the words 'Decisive Battle'.
If you want to minimize the casualties of the mechanical apostles in a war of this intensity, the size of the army must not be small.
In the 'Mechanical Families', the positioning of ordinary mechanical units is very clear, they are tools and cannon fodder.
If we can save a mechanical apostle on the battlefield at the cost of losing a large number of mechanical legions, even a relatively 'worthless' 'commander', it would be very meaningful.
Although the cost of making a 'commander' is not high, it is a real 'life' after all, and it is also Jiang Chen's trusted core subordinate.
Jiang Chen’s order to the leaders and commanders of each legion is that when necessary, they can ignore the casualties of the mechanical legion and do their best to save the lives of all the 'mechanical family members', even if the entire legion is used as cannon fodder. It doesn't matter if you give up.
From a purely monetary perspective, this is not a good deal.
But Jiang Chen did not regard the mechanical apostles as mere tools or cannon fodder, but as direct subordinates that he could trust.
The value they showed was worthy of Jiang Chen.
Batches of resources were sent to the production base in Star Domain 6522, the place of origin, and transformed into combat units of various mechanical legions. Then they were sent to the battlefield outside the fifth domain in batches to fill the frontline forces. .
Massive trophies are constantly being sent back from the front lines, and after being screened, they are replaced with various resources.
With the combat power of the mechanical legion, it is still very advantageous on the battlefield outside the territory.
At least in every war, we have achieved 'positive returns'. In addition to deducting our own losses, we can still have a lot of 'surplus'.
This number is after deducting half of the ‘trophies’ that the commanders and commanders who participated in the war should receive.
Fighting and fighting, the strength of the mechanical legion is increasing.
The number of units dispatched to foreign battlefields alone has increased from more than one billion six mechanical units to one hundred thousand seventh-level mechanical units.
In just over a year, the number has soared to nearly 10 billion troops.
If you only look at quantity and do not consider quality, the strength of the mechanical legion alone exceeds the total number of immortal armies sent by the Hongmeng to the battlefield outside the fifth territory.
This is under the premise that the four major alliances are constantly adding troops to this battlefield.
——
Somewhere in the universe, in the torrent layer of space.
The original power of the divine kingdoms was drained away, and they quickly decayed and shattered under the impact of the torrent of space.
After swallowing hundreds of thousands of divine kingdoms again, Jiang Chen glanced at the system prompts.
The growth of the inner world has reached a limit.
Continuing to devour the world and the Kingdom of God can only accumulate excess original power, which can no longer be 'digested'.
If you want the world inside your body to continue to grow, you need a transformation.
The accumulation of ‘Creation Power’ has also reached the standard unit of just over 10,000, meeting the needs for advancement.
Jiang Chen released the [divine descent] state, and his consciousness returned to his original body.
Looking at the two lines of words on the system interface, I fell into silence.
[6. Obtain the authority of ‘Creation’. (Not achieved)]
[If all the above promotion conditions are met, the rank will be upgraded to level six and more system functions will be enabled. "The only thing left is the 'authority of creation', but there is not even a clue about this thing. Where can I find it?"
Jiang Chen had a frown on his face.
After reaching the fifth-level limit and the 'Advancement Requirements' automatically popped up in the system interface, Jiang Chen tried to view the detailed description of the 'Creation Authority' more than once.
But they all failed and I couldn’t view them at all.
There are no clues except a name.
Jiang Chen also tried to solve this problem by exchanging expertise.
But after searching for a long time, I couldn’t find any expertise that seemed to be somewhat related to the so-called ‘authority of creation’.
As for searching in the virtual universe, or even asking for advice from the founder of the giant axe, the masters of other universes in the human race, etc., Jiang Chen has also tried it.
I got a lot of messy information, but none of it was useful.
So, the task of advancing to the next level is stuck here.
If he still can't find a solution, Jiang Chen will die of old age after a long period of time when his life span comes.
Thinking of this possibility, Jiang Chen's expression froze.
Although, the life span of tens of millions of years at the World Lord level is already extremely long compared to normal earthlings.
But there is only one step away from ‘eternal life’, how could Jiang Chen be willing to give up?
Just as I was thinking about it, suddenly, the system interface suddenly started to change.
A blue, translucent interface appeared in front of Jiang Chen's eyes.
A piece of text appears, which is the language of ‘runes’.
Translated, it roughly means, 'The world already has a master, and you can choose to communicate, steal, or seize three ways to obtain the 'authority' of the world. ’
The meaning is very simple.
Either communicate with the ‘Lord of the World’ and ask the other party to grant you the ‘authority to create the world’.
Either steal or rob from the other party and seize the 'authority of creation'.
Looking at this line of prompts, Jiang Chen couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.
"This 'world has a master', does it refer to the original will of the original universe, or the Lord of Chaotic Source 'Yuan'? Or does it mean a higher level, infinite Chaotic Source space?"
An idea came to Jiang Chen's mind.
Jiang Chen naturally knows a lot about the world of Devouring Starry Sky.
According to the model of "big map within small map", from small to large, they are the original universe (including the cosmic sea), the origin continent, and the infinite chaotic source space.
Except for the level of the Infinite Hunyuan Space, Jiang Chen is not sure.
What is certain is that the original universe was already controlled by an ‘original will of the original universe’.
The Origin Continent is already under the control of ‘Yuan’, the Hunyuan Lord.
Don’t consider the infinite Hunyuan space.
If the so-called 'authority of creation' involves the level of the infinite Chaotic Source Space, Jiang Chen feels that he would just lie down and wait for the end of his lifespan.
There is no need to consider even the level of the continent of origin.
Don’t talk about stealing or seizing.
Even if there is even the slightest connection with the extremely mysterious Hunyuan Lord ‘Yuan’, Jiang Chen feels that it is a very risky thing.
Contacting that level of existence, Jiang Chen felt that it would be better to give up on breakthroughs and enjoy the remaining millions of years of his life.
If it were the level of the 'original will of the original universe', Jiang Chen felt that there was still a chance to save it.
At least, Jiang Chen knows a little bit.
Judging from the original work, the degree of 'wisdom' of the original will is not very high. It is more about following certain rules to maintain the operation of the universe.
Of course, this may be an illusion.
But no matter what, as long as you can make a large enough contribution to the original universe, you can make demands and obtain benefits from the original will through the Ancestral God Religion.
This is the path of communication and negotiation.
As for stealing and plundering...
Jiang Chen still couldn’t figure out how to do it for a while.
Perhaps that mysterious mountain guest will know something?
The Ancestral God Sect and the Mountain Guest are two possible breakthroughs to obtain the ‘authority of creation’.
However, if Jiang Chen wants to deal with these two parties by relying on himself, it would be a bit too high for Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen's ability and strength are very strong, far beyond his own level.
But the Ancestral God Sect was the largest force in the original universe.
The extremely mysterious mountain guest is also the reincarnation of a fallen god king in the Origin Continent.
No one of these two parties is easy to mess with.
Just dealing with them involves a lot of risks, especially when Jiang Chen himself has quite a few secrets.
How to plan, you still have to think carefully first.
There are still several million years left in his lifespan. As long as he does not enter an environment where time is accelerated at a high speed, Jiang Chen can live for a long time and has enough time to slowly gain the 'authority of creation'.
Of course, the premise of all this is that obtaining the 'authority of creation' only requires the level of the 'original will of the original universe'.
If it has to involve the Lord of the Origin World, Lord Hunyuan at the level of ‘Yuan’, then there is no chance at all.
The consciousness communicated with the clone and entered the virtual universe to check it out.
The mechanical legion was still fighting on the battlefield outside the territory, and Jiang Chen did not choose to bring them back.
This kind of opportunity to fight is also a good experience for the mechanical army.
Not to mention making huge profits.
A battle can involve dozens or hundreds of treasure points, or a few or even dozens of treasure points.
Although war is not going on all the time, and the benefits show a gradually diminishing trend, at least for now, the benefits are still very considerable.
There is nothing wrong with leaving the mechanical army on the battlefield.
As for the Machine Clan’s targeting, Jiang Chen doesn’t really care.
As long as the former at the Master of the Universe level does not take action, the mechanical legion will not suffer.
Although this kind of high-intensity fighting lasts for a long time, it is difficult to guarantee that the mechanical apostle will not be damaged.
But the ordeal of war is meant to kill people.
Jiang Chen also gave them a chance to choose. Since all the commanders and commanders have chosen to go to the battlefield to obtain military honors, the risks must be borne by themselves.
