Chapter 427: The Blood-Falling One surrenders? The upgrade material turns out to be…
Huh? The spotlight's on me? Li Ming, who had been silent the entire time, felt increasingly strange.
First, he laid the groundwork for the importance of the organization, then for the power of the invitee, and finally, he turned the conversation around and asked if he was invited.
Could he deny it? Obviously not. The Empire would announce the list soon. There was no point in deceiving him now.
"I... am indeed one of the ten." Li Ming said slowly.
Suddenly, the gaze under the black fog became more intense, and waves began to surge in his heart. Is Qinglong really one of the ten people?
An interstellar giant certified by the Empire!
The navigator was confused and puzzled. What on earth was the Bleeding One doing? Was he paving the way for the Azure Dragon?
Also, Qinglong is actually one of the ten people. Why would the Empire invite him?
Who...is he?!
The development of this rally was completely beyond his expectations.
Qinglong did almost nothing, and relied entirely on the assistance of the Blood-Falling One to raise his status to a certain level.
"You are actually one of the ten." The Bleeding Man said in surprise.
The others were speechless. They already thought that Qinglong had instigated the Blood-Falling One to rebel, and that the two were just acting to suppress the Navigator.
But I have to say that Qinglong's methods are indeed extraordinary.
After all, the navigator had been powerful for many years, but this time he couldn't say a word.
"With Your Excellency here, we'll be able to learn in advance about any future moves made by the Higher Life Forms Alliance." The Blood-Falling One added, "As expected of Your Excellency Azure Dragon."
"The formation of a coalition of higher life forms is the work of the Empire. If it stabilizes, it will be like having indestructible external support. The other two civilizations will not sit idly by."
"We can take this opportunity to add fuel to the fire. If we can dismantle this organization, that would be the best."
The Bloodthirster's plan was standard, and it was nothing more than responding to each opponent's moves.
They had been hiding in the dark before, and their sudden attack had indeed caused considerable trouble to the empire. Now that the empire had withstood the first wave of attacks and started to counterattack, they were somewhat stretched.
"Hmm..." Li Ming kept staring at him, his eyes suddenly flashing, "I think we shouldn't waste time on this matter."
The Bleeding Man's tone was slightly hesitant, and the others couldn't help but look at him.
Incite the blood-shedders, suppress the leaders, and come up with plans, all in one go.
"I have top secret information. The Empire has found the whereabouts of the Star of Eternal Silence." He said shockingly.
The Bleeding Man's pupils contracted and his heart trembled slightly. How could he know?
"The Star of Eternal Silence?" The navigator's heart tightened slightly, and he couldn't help but look over.
In fact, he was not sure whether Qinglong was a member of the empire. He suppressed Qinglong because of the urgency of his own status.
As can be seen from the code name, although the Navigator does not have a clear leader, he vaguely has the meaning of a leader.
However, he also has a real hatred for the Empire, and if Qinglong is more advanced than him, he doesn't mind lying dormant for a while.
The people below were talking about it.
"The United Organization of Higher Life Forms, I'm more inclined to believe this is a smokescreen thrown by the Empire to divert attention from the planet-massacre incident." Li Ming quickly got into character and spoke freely.
"The two civilizations can't just sit back and watch. We can't play a big role in this. The Star of Eternal Silence is the most important. If the Empire loses it and then regains it, all our efforts will be in vain."
"Smoke bomb..." The navigator pondered. If he put aside his prejudice against Qinglong, this possibility was indeed very high.
"Right, Mr. Blood-Falling One." Li Ming asked suddenly.
"Your analysis is correct." The Blood-Drenched One nodded. "However, this is the Empire's top secret. Even I find it difficult to detect. If I want to find out the exact location..."
"The deep dimensional world, the Red River Star Stream." Li Ming directly spit out the name. This was what he knew from Kostat. He was really surprised at the time.
The one who lost blood was frightened, what a great green dragon.
"Even the specific coordinates?" The navigator was quite surprised, and his suspicion of Qinglong inevitably decreased a little, although it might be a bait.
But this scope has been narrowed down to a very small level and is easier to verify.
"So, next, the focus of our investigation should shift to the Star of Eternal Silence," he said in a deep voice.
"That makes sense..." Blackbeard nodded, finally daring to agree. This plan was much simpler than fighting against any coalition of higher life forms.
Besides, who wouldn’t want to obtain something as good as the Star of Eternal Silence?
Everyone else also thought about it. Between fighting against X-level life forms and searching for treasure, everyone knew what to choose.
Li Mingze said, "I don't know your specific identities, so how to investigate is up to you all."
"I understand." A lot of people responded, which was completely different from the beginning.
"If there's nothing else to do, then let's disperse." Li Ming said naturally. Some people logged off immediately, and soon everyone dispersed.
The navigator couldn't help but snort in his heart.
"Wait..." When Li Ming was about to log off, he was stopped by the Bleeding One.
"Your Excellency Qinglong, at this point, it's time to tell you more about the Pioneers."
"Oh?" Li Ming was slightly stunned and couldn't help but curious.
Then, the surrounding scene began to change silently, from the Iron Throne Hall to a small room with only four chairs around it, and the fifth one was slowly taking shape.
"The Inner Council," the Bloodfallen One introduced. "The four of us, the Navigator, the Guide, and the Forger, founded the Pioneers. You, Excellency, are the fifth."
Four dark shadows were jumping on the four seats, without any response or greeting.
The navigator was shocked and angry again. This was something he had no idea about. The Blood-Falling One actually invited Qinglong to join the core council.
"Core Council." Li Ming was not surprised that there was this small circle, but he was surprised that this group of people were actually willing to accept him.
"Our only goal is to fight against the empire, and I believe that Your Excellency Qinglong feels the same way." The Blood-Falling One raised his hand, and a black mist flowed out and merged into the fifth throne.
"That's the identity of all members of the Pioneers except us."
Li Ming was more and more surprised. He took a quick look and saw several familiar names.
"Blackbeard turned out to be Parlo..."
"The Forging Star Mechanic—Ulysses, the guy who recommended me to join the Mechanics Association, Dark Night's friend, is actually also a member..."
"Thank you all for your trust." Li Ming thought about it and realized that other people were very indifferent to him. They didn't react much. He said a few perfunctory words and then hurriedly logged off.
“W-what the hell are you doing!?”
After Qinglong left, the Navigator finally couldn't contain his anger and asked the Blood-Falling One, "When did you get involved with him?"
"Also, who allowed you to invite him to the core council?"
"That's right, Bleeding One, you need to give us an explanation." The guide also spoke. The Bleeding One's actions were too abrupt and they were all unaware of it.
In front of Qinglong, they couldn't refute and could only remain silent.
"Just got the news that he killed Ryan." This was the only thing the Bleeding One said.
In an instant, the navigator's anger dissipated, and he was a little bit unbelievable: "He killed Ryan?"
"Indeed, eradicating him on Kostart's return voyage is sufficient proof that he is not from the Empire," the Blood-Fell said gravely. "Should we reject such a man?"
The navigator's expression changed, and finally he snorted coldly and stopped talking.
"If that's the case, you are indeed qualified to join the core council." The other two had no objection. There was no more important token of allegiance than this.
…
"It seems that the other people don't know that I am going to join the core council. It's all the Blood-Lossing One who is acting on his own. What on earth does he want to do?" Li Ming went offline, still thinking.
The situation today was completely different from what he had imagined before going online. Many of the prepared rhetoric was useless. Not only did he not face too much criticism, but his status was actually rising.
He couldn't figure out what the Bleeding Man was trying to do. This guy was clearly a high-ranking official in the empire, and everyone else trusted him.
"It can't be that I'm so powerful that he bows down to me?" Li Ming thought for a long time but still couldn't come up with an answer. For now, everything the Bleeding Man did was not bad for him.
Moreover, a list of the true identities of all members of the Pioneer Organization was also given. Throwing this thing to the Empire and killing them one by one would be a great achievement.
It can't be said that there is no trust.
"Now that we are here, let's make the best of it..." He shook his head, put the matter aside for the time being, took a long breath, and began to communicate with the Holy Castle.
"Ask questions?" The Supervisor appeared and looked at Li Ming who was gradually emerging.
"Fighting the trial." Li Ming said honestly. The supervisor was speechless and didn't say much. The scene around him changed.
In the black fog, the outlines of the transcendental Abyss Clan gradually became clear, with bulging muscles, hard lines, more armor-like structures on the surface of the skin, and complex surface textures.
The eyes on the head turned blood red, like burning flames.
Li Ming's eyes narrowed slightly, and he was fully focused. An infinite heavy hammer appeared in his hand, and purple light flickered. Power surged in his body, his muscles twitched, and gathered on his arms. His breathing became heavy and rapid.
boom!
Thunder from heaven and fire from earth collide!
"I abstain!"
Soon, Li Ming roared, and the violent energy around him dissipated in an instant, and his body, which was almost beaten into pieces, quickly recovered.
"Fuck." Li Ming panted and cursed.
After these Yuan people were elevated to the transcendent level, they became even stronger than he had imagined. Each of them had strength comparable to that of Ryan after the genes were liberated, or even slightly stronger, and they were directly beaten into sandbags.
Li Ming grimaced. Although his body was repairing, the pain was real. "Overseer, how can these things be so strong? They are even more terrifying than the Lord level at the same level."
The Supervisor emerged from the black mist and seemed relieved. Fortunately, this guy didn't win.
"Life forms are constantly evolving. The higher the level, the greater the gap. When your evolutionary path reaches the transcendent level, the gap between you and the Titans and the Abyss is not that big anymore." The Supervisor explained.
"Not to mention the Yuan Clan, a powerful life race."
That's right... Li Ming breathed a sigh of relief. At the stage of level X life forms, it is normal for the conventional energy level to be more than twice the development progress.
"So, our evolutionary path seems quite impressive," Li Ming muttered, and then asked, "By the way, how did the Yuan Clan evolve?"
The Overseer paused before saying, "Swallow...the universe."
"Swallow the universe?" Li Ming was stunned. "That's too broad."
The Overseer explained, "It literally devours everything in the universe: bodies, entities, even information states and quantum dimensions. Everything it comes into contact with is devoured, and it can quickly adjust its evolutionary direction to cope with various environments."
"No bottleneck? This is too perfect?" Li Ming couldn't help but say.
The Overseer said, "Yes, but I can't tell you."
Li Ming sighed, "Yongyuan..."
He thought again of the incomplete "Power of Eternal Abyss" on the system page. He didn't know what its specific function was, and hoped that it was not an upgrade material.
"Oh, I thought I could still give it a try, but in the end I couldn't even get through the second level." Li Ming sighed helplessly.
"Come back later." He said goodbye to the Supervisor and prepared to leave.
"Wait..." the Overseer called out to him.
Someone asked me to wait again... Li Ming felt that these two words were very familiar. This was the third person who asked him to wait today.
"This thing is for you." The Supervisor threw out an exquisite alloy can. In the translucent glass cabin in the center, there was a crystal blood light, and a drop of extremely bright blood was hanging.
"What is this?" Li Ming was puzzled.
"World Blood..." The Overseer said expressionlessly, "This is the reward for challenging a Transcendent Trial for the first time. It's given regardless of success or failure."
"Oh?" Li Ming became interested and looked at it carefully. "I seem to have heard you say that this thing can only be born in a dominant-level dimensional world? What's its use?"
"No," the Supervisor corrected. "A transcendental dimensional world can begin to condense, but the dominant level is more powerful and can be called the world source. For Titans, this thing can improve their evolutionary level."
"I'm not sure what use it is to you."
It turns out it’s just a decoration… He was speechless.
"Forget it, let me see." Li Ming took it and prepared to study it. The alloy cabin opened from the center, and the blood-like object slowly floated up.
It is called blood, but in fact it is similar to crystal. When you touch it with your hand, you don’t feel anything special, just icy cold.
No, this thing... can absorb?
Li Ming's eyes suddenly focused, and he habitually activated the control system, and was actually able to extract some power from it.
He immediately perked up and was full of anticipation. The Inspector frowned slightly, and seeing that this guy was holding the Blood of the World, he did not make any other moves and slowly shook his head.
The evolutionary paths are completely different.
Many things left behind by the original masters are of no use to their descendants, and the pure-blooded Titans have disappeared.
Uh-huh! ?
Suddenly, the Supervisor's mechanical pupils spun wildly. Was the World's Blood absorbed?
"You, what did you do?" The Supervisor asked in surprise. This guy is obviously not a pure-blooded Titan, how could he absorb the blood of the world?
But he found that the other party was looking at him with an even more intense gaze.
"How can I get this thing?"
Li Ming was in high spirits and almost laughed out loud.
This world blood is actually the special energy required to upgrade to X-level items.
It was so easy to find. He had thought it would take a long time to find it.
After all, there is no clue now. Unexpectedly, I got it by chance.
