Immortal Venerable Haoyue chuckled awkwardly and said, "Layman Yang's warship is indeed remarkable. A single layer of glass was enough to withstand 99% of my mental attacks. This technological civilization truly lives up to its reputation."
Yang Guo coldly replied, "The products of the technological universe are no weaker than those of cultivating immortality. Top-tier mecha fusion can also withstand the power of an Immortal Emperor."
Immortal Venerable Haoyue said with a smile, "That's for sure. It's truly enviable that Layman Yang has such a warship! However, I'll say it again: you are free to come and go, but are there any prisoners we've detained on your warship? You should know very well that these prisoners are all people with enormous potential. If we let even one go, I can't bear the blame from above."
Yang Guo sneered, "What? Are you afraid that he will overthrow your immortal realm once he reaches the pinnacle of cultivation?"
Immortal Venerable Haoyue laughed and said, "How could that be? Even if you gave this kid ten thousand years, it would be absolutely impossible. My Immortal Realm has ten Immortal Emperors, while your Human Realm only has five sets of S-class battle armor. The combined number of Emperor-level experts in the Battle Qi Realm and the Magic Realm is only five. All the experts in the other three realms combined are no match for my Immortal Realm. This kid can overthrow my Immortal Realm?! It's not that I'm afraid of him, but every prisoner on Earth has a record, and the Book of Life and Death is checked every year. If one person is missing, a soul is missing, and when Immortal Venerable Yama questions me, I won't be able to explain myself."
Yang Guo coldly said, "Everything can be discussed. I've already thought of a solution for you. There's a soul of an old enemy here. I'll erase its consciousness and use it to make up the numbers for you."
After saying this, Yang Guo flicked his sleeve, and a soul-summoning banner flew out and shot straight at Immortal Venerable Haoyue.
When the Immortal Venerable Haoyue saw the Soul-Summoning Banner coming with overwhelming force, he immediately used his immortal power to defend against it.
A shockwave erupted from the far side of the moon, sending sand and stones flying!
Immortal Venerable Haoyue easily caught the Soul-Summoning Banner, but his blood and qi surged. He thought to himself, "This Yang fellow was seriously injured, yet he still possesses such power. Coupled with his indestructible A-class warship, I'm afraid I'm no match for him. He's clearly trying to take this kid away and train him as his helper. If I insist on keeping this kid here, I'm afraid a great battle is inevitable. Even if I win, I'll lose my own power. It won't be easy for this remote place to recover."
Immortal Venerable Haoyue looked at the Soul-Summoning Banner in his hand. Inside, a soul floated about like an idiot. He figured this soul must be Yang Guo's old enemy.
"Fine! Since you've thought of everything so thoroughly, Mr. Yang, I'll make an exception and help you this time. I'll use this soul, now devoid of consciousness, to replace that kid. But if I do this, then we'll have settled the favor I owed you in the past. Hehe!"
Yang Guo laughed and said, "That's wonderful! I also wish you a speedy advancement in your cultivation! Farewell!"
Immortal Venerable Haoyue nodded and said, "Layman Yang! Until we meet again! I see that you are no ordinary person, and I wish you a speedy completion of your S-grade battle armor and attainment of the Immortal Emperor's body. Although there is no precedent for dual cultivation to become an Emperor, if you succeed, I would also like to go to your human realm to learn about your technological civilization."
Yang Guo said with a firm gaze, "Though the road ahead is difficult, we will surely reach our destination if we persevere. Farewell!"
Immortal Venerable Haoyue nodded and smiled, "What spirit! Until we meet again!"
Yang Guo flashed and teleported back into his warship, only to find Lin Caogen unconscious and convulsing on the ground.
Two fingers touched Lin Caogen's brow, and a surge of pure immortal energy coursed through his body. The previously blocked eight extraordinary meridians opened up, leaving only 36,000 tiny veins still blocked. Even so, Lin Caogen felt immensely benefited. He slowly opened his eyes, sat cross-legged on the ground, and felt an extreme comfort throughout his body, except for his head, which felt like it was about to explode and was in unbearable pain.
Yang Guo said, "Boy, I used my immortal power to modify your eight extraordinary meridians. The main meridians have all been opened. Only the remaining minor meridians need to be opened by you through your own cultivation. You were attacked by Immortal Venerable Haoyue's immortal consciousness just now, which injured your sea of consciousness. You need to calmly recuperate for half a month to recover. I didn't expect Immortal Venerable Haoyue's spiritual power to be so strong. You have escaped death."
Lin Caogen felt completely dazed. He vaguely heard what Yang Guo said, but then his head was throbbing so badly that he lost the ability to speak. He sat cross-legged on the ground like a madman, swaying back and forth.
Yang Guo, his eyes blazing, gazed at the Milky Way outside the window and spat out a mouthful of pale golden blood.
He had already used all his strength to attack Immortal Venerable Haoyue with the Soul-Summoning Banner. He was already seriously injured, but he still forced himself to exert his strength. However, if he did not intimidate him in this way, Immortal Venerable Haoyue might not be willing to let Lin Caogen leave Earth, and then another great battle would be inevitable.
The Milky Way has been a barren wasteland in the celestial realm since ancient times. Only some celestial beings who have committed transgressions are banished here. Finding a celestial fruit, celestial tree, or celestial herb in the Milky Way is as difficult as finding a spring in the desert.
In the heart of the immortal realm lies an extremely fertile land.
Its name is Immortal Continent.
The area of this Immortal Continent is larger than a hundred Milky Way galaxies.
This continent has a unique shape, consisting of three rings and one center.
The Immortal Continent is filled with countless immortal fruits, opportunities everywhere, and abundant immortal energy. The average lifespan of ordinary immortals is over a thousand years.
However, the distribution of resources on the Immortal Continent is not even. The central area is called Zhongzhou, which accounts for 90% of the resources of the entire Immortal Continent. Next is the First Ring Continent, which accounts for 7% of the resources of the entire Immortal Continent. Then comes the Second Ring Continent, which accounts for 2% of the resources of the entire Immortal Continent. At the bottom of the list is the Third Ring Continent, which accounts for 1% of the resources of the entire Immortal Continent.
That's another way to understand it.
The resources of the Second Ring Continent are twice that of the Third Ring Continent, the resources of the First Ring Continent are more than three times that of the Second Ring Continent, and the resources of the Central Continent are more than ten times that of the First Ring Continent.
Many immortals are willing to go bankrupt just to buy a house in Zhongzhou, all for the sake of enjoying the richest cultivation resources there.
Time flowed on relentlessly, and Yang Guo's Class A warship had been traversing the universe for over half a year. The warship's speed had long surpassed the speed of light. After passing through approximately ten wormholes (wormholes are similar in effect to teleportation arrays used by immortals), Yang Guo, carrying Lin Caogen, finally arrived at a place one hundred light-years away from the Immortal Continent.
Looking at the magnificent continent before him, Lin Caogen was filled with excitement.
Who would have thought that the chairman of Linzhitang is currently traveling through the galaxy in a spaceship, arriving at the sacred land of the Immortal Realm, the Immortal Gang Continent?
Yang Guo explained, “Boy, the Immortal Continent in front of you is a hundred times larger than the Milky Way. Look at its structure of three rings and one center; it’s perfectly natural. The Ten Immortal Emperors all reside in that center, which is called the Central Continent. The closer to the center, the denser the immortal energy, and the easier it is to cultivate. But the closer to the center, the fiercer the competition, and the harder it is for ordinary people to gain a foothold. Do you understand?”
Lin Caogen understood this principle well and said, "Brother Yang, are you suggesting that I go to the Third Ring Road to get used to it and cultivate step by step?"
Yang Guo nodded and said, "That's right! It's just like your Earth. An ordinary person who goes to a big city rashly is very likely to end up with nothing. Only by cultivating step by step can you establish a firm foothold. Sending you to the Three Rings Continent is also to protect you. There are not many experts there, and experts are unwilling to waste their time and lives going to such a far place. This is more suitable for you to kill monsters and level up."
