"If Your Majesty intends to do as I said before, it would be best not to use warships of the seventh-level technological civilization, as they would be too conspicuous. Top-tier warships of the sixth-level technological civilization would be more suitable, as they would neither be too eye-catching nor be underestimated..."
Originally, Lin Yun planned to purchase a low-grade warship of the seventh-level technological civilization level to travel to the Cordis Empire. However, Fang Ao told him this, which made him give up the idea of purchasing a low-grade warship of the seventh-level technological civilization level.
“When I last visited the Cordis Empire's royal family, the most powerful expert I saw was a mid-level tenth-grade cultivator. However, many forces don't reveal all their trump cards, so it's hard to say whether they have any late-level tenth-grade experts, or even peak tenth-grade experts. In addition, the royal family has more than one tenth-grade cultivator, as well as some warships and large war fortresses at the level of a seventh-grade technological civilization. If you, Master, were to go to the royal family like this, the outcome would be uncertain…”
This was Fang Ao's suggestion to Lin Yun after Lin Yun told Fang Ao about his plan to go to the Cordis Empire to trade using a Level 7 technological civilization-level warship.
Lin Yun currently only has a little over 10 billion spiritual crystals in cash. With that amount of spiritual crystals, he can at most purchase two or three low-grade warships at the level of a seventh-level technological civilization. This is far too small a force.
That's why Fang Ao said what he said earlier.
He suggested that Lin Yun first trade with other top powers in the Cordis Empire.
Therefore, Lin Yun decided not to purchase a warship of the seventh-level technological civilization. If he went to other top-level spheres of influence of the Cordis Empire and used a warship of the seventh-level technological civilization, it would cause too much of a commotion.
This could very likely cause unnecessary trouble.
On Tianzhu Star.
"Brother Xinglan, we're leaving now. Take care of yourself. If you encounter any danger, safety comes first. You should know who we are. As long as we're alive, we'll turn things around sooner or later." Lin Yun looked at Xinglan and smiled.
"Take care," Xinglan nodded.
call--
Lin Yun nodded, said no more, and disappeared with a thought.
In the starry sky, their warship had already set sail, and Lin Yun teleported to the core control room.
"Next stop... the Cordis Empire..."
Lin Yun looked ahead and spoke slowly.
It was just a warship of a level 6 technological civilization, which Lin Yun's subordinates could control.
Not long after, Lin Yun went into seclusion again to cultivate, leaving his subordinates to control him.
Tianzhu Star is more than 150 million light-years away from the Cordis Empire, so the time required is not short.
...
More than two months later.
Lin Yun and his party's warships entered the territory of the Cordis Empire.
"As expected of a sixth-level civilization's territory, the power of heaven and earth here is significantly stronger..."
Lin Yun sighed.
Beyond this territory, the difference becomes quite significant, which is quite obvious.
By this time, the patrol ships and monitoring equipment here had become much denser. Their warship quickly attracted the attention of the Imperial patrol team. However, after Fang Ao sent his identity information, the attention was withdrawn.
Lin Yun nodded slightly.
Fang Ao is right. It is indeed not suitable for them to use warships of a level 7 technological civilization. If they do, their information will probably have to be urgently transmitted to the royal family of the Cordis Empire, and who knows what might happen then.
The entry of a Level 7 technological civilization warship into the territory of the Cordis Empire is no small matter.
In that case, their every move in the Cordis Empire would be monitored, and their visits to some top powers would likely be met with suspicion. In short, the transaction would no longer go smoothly.
Lin Yun did not comment on Fang Ao.
Specifically, it depends on whether the subsequent actions go smoothly.
The top-tier power they chose was also introduced by Fang Ao.
"The King of the Northeast is only at the peak of the ninth level, but among his disciples is a cultivator at the early stage of the tenth level, and another guest elder at the early stage of the tenth level. Therefore, their faction is quite powerful. Last time I spoke with him, we got along quite well. I estimate that he has great ambitions. If the master sells him a warship of the seventh-level technological civilization, it should fetch a good price..."
Fang Ao said this.
The Cordis Empire has many planets within its territory, and most of them are not suitable for warship teleportation.
It wasn't until five days later that Lin Yun's warships arrived at the northeastern territory that Fang Ao had mentioned.
"Who goes there?" a patrol fleet sent a communication message, and a middle-aged man in military uniform asked.
"General, please send word that Fang Ao, a guest minister of the Empire, requests an audience," Fang Ao said.
"So it's Guest Elder Fang. Please wait a moment, Guest Elder Fang, I'll send a message right away." Upon hearing Fang Ao's self-introduction, the middle-aged man was startled and quickly replied. At this moment, he also recognized Fang Ao's identity.
As the captain of a patrol fleet, his status was not low, and his knowledge was also higher. Fang Ao was one of the dozen or so publicly known level 10 cultivators and guest elders of the Cordis Empire, so he naturally needed to get to know him.
He absolutely cannot afford to offend such an important person.
As soon as he finished speaking, he immediately contacted his superiors.
In less than a minute, the middle-aged man said very respectfully, "Guest Fang, I apologize for keeping you waiting. My master requests your presence."
whoosh—whoosh—whoosh—
Soon, Lin Yun's warship, led by this patrol fleet, passed through a checkpoint.
"According to the rules, they should be scanning our warship, but they didn't. It seems this prince trusts me completely. Either he's incredibly carefree, or he's incredibly carefree..."
Fang Ao turned his head, looked at Lin Yun beside him, smiled slightly, and said.
Saying "heartless" twice has completely different meanings.
He didn't achieve this level of success over three thousand years old by doing nothing.
"I hope this Northeast King of the Cordis Empire will not disappoint me," Lin Yun said with a faint smile.
Soon, warships landed on an administrative planet.
This administrative star is very large, more than ten times the size of Tianzhu Star.
The population density is now much higher.
Because it was on another power's administrative planet, Lin Yun couldn't use technological equipment to scan it; he only used his mental power to sense it slightly.
Finally, he estimated that the population of this administrative planet was at least 150 billion, or even more than 200 billion.
The population was terrifying. Lin Yun could sense that the speed at which these people emitted spiritual energy was far less than that of humans on Earth, but it was still comparable to that of Tianzhu Star.
Therefore, the number of spiritual crystals provided here at any given time must not be a small number.
"Who are these people?" The middle-aged man in military uniform asked hesitantly when he saw the group of people following Fang Ao.
“These are my friends. I came here to introduce them to the Prince. Why can’t they go in?” Fang Ao asked, looking at the other party.
"I dare not... I dare not... His Highness has already arrived and just reprimanded me. Please, Mr. Fang, come in..." The middle-aged man in military uniform hesitated for a moment, then heard the message in his ear and quickly apologized to Fang Ao.
He then continued to lead the way.
"Haha, Brother Fang, what brings you here today? I was busy with some business and couldn't greet you properly, please forgive me!" Just as Fang Ao and Lin Yun's group entered a magnificent hall, a middle-aged man in a luxurious robe stepped forward and laughed loudly.
This man was none other than Bo Donghai, the Northeast King of the Cordis Empire.
"Your Highness is too kind. I've come today mainly to introduce a business deal to you," Fang Ao said with a cupped hand and a smile. 46
